A EDUCAÇÃO DO CABOCLO-RIBEIRINHO: PROBLEMATIZAÇÕES ACERCA DO CURRÍCULO ESCOLAR E SEUS DESDOBRAMENTOS NAS ESCOLAS RIBEIRINHAS

Este artigo se configura como um ensaio teórico sobre a temática de currículo e seus desdobramentos na realidade de escolas ribeirinhas. Visa, em primeira instância, elucidar questões conceituais sobre currículo e apontar os descompassos entre conteúdos escolares que são definidos arbitrariamente e se tornam descontextualizados para a realidade educacional das instituições em questão. Em seguida, são trazidos elementos sociais sobre as escolas ribeirinhas, visando caracterizar essa realidade ao leitor e apresentar parte dos aspectos sociais que circundam esse contexto. Argumenta-se que os currículos escolares não dialogam com a realidade das comunidades ribeirinhas, o que se desdobra em ações educativas inócuas, esvaziadas de sentido e distantes de transformações sociais profundas

Efeitos do manejo sustentável da Caatinga sob os atributos físicos do solo

Objetivou-se avaliar a qualidade do solo, em áreas da Caatinga submetidas a diferentes sistemas de manejo, tendo como parâmetros os atributos físicos do solo. As formas de manejo adotadas foram: (1) área de manejo sustentável da Caatinga; (2) área de Caatinga com manejo convencional; e (3) área de Caatinga considerada mata nativa. Decorridos 5 anos, foram coletadas amostras de solo nas áreas nas profundidades 0,00-0,20 m e 0,20-0,40 m para análise dos atributos físicos do solo. Os resultados evidenciaram maior compactação do solo na área de manejo convencional. O manejo sustentável da Caatinga mostrou-se uma técnica promissora para manutenção e recuperação das propriedades físicas do solo

Efficacy and safety of percutaneous left atrial appendage closure in chronic kidney disease patients with atrial fibrillation : results of a 7-year registry

All rights reserved.INTRODUCTION AND AIMS: Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common sustained cardiac arrhythmia, the most devastating complication being thromboembolism leading to fatal or disabling stroke. Although oral anticoagulation (OAC) is the mainstay of prevention therapy in the general population, its benefit in chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients is less well defined. End-stage renal disease patients treated with vitamin K antagonists present increased risk of bleeding, accelerated cardiovascular calcification and increased risk of calciphylaxis. Left atrial appendage closure (LAAC) is performed to prevent complications in high-risk AF patients with contraindications to OAC and in AF patients with events despite OAC.info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersio

Effects of chronic food stress on morphometry and expression of nuclear organizing regions in the adult rats hippocampus Chronic food stress on morphometry and expression of agnor in the rats hippocampus / Efeitos do estresse alimentar crônico na morfometria e expressão das regiões de organização nuclear nos ratos adultos hipocampo Testemunho crônico de alimentação sobre morfometria e expressão do agnor no hippocampus das taxas

The aim of this study was to verify the immediate and late effects of chronic food stress on the expression of Nuclear Organizing Regions (NORs) in hippocampal neurons. Twenty Wistar rats were separated into two groups: test (n = 10) and control (n = 10). Food stress started from the 60th day of life and lasted for a month. After this time the animals were anesthetized, euthanized and had their hippocampus dissected. The obtained hippocampus were histologically processed, stained by the HE technique for morphological description and by the AgNOR technique for NOR analysis. From each image the total number of neurons, the number of neurons with NOR in Dispersion (NND), the total number of NORs (NNOR), and then performed a ratio of NNOR by the total number of neurons to obtain the number Of NOR by neuron (NNN). Of the analyzed variants, the number of neurons was higher (p <0.001) in the stressed group (41.98 ± 17), when compared with the control group (33.57 ± 14). In addition, NND was also higher in the stressed group (4.523 ± 4.04) than the control group (1.4 ± 2.20) with p <0.001. Thus, we have that chronic food stress increases the number of granular neurons in the hippocampus in rats as well as increases the number of NOR in dispersion. 

Nematoides associadas à cultura da palma forrageira/Nematoids associated with fodder palm culture

A palma forrageira é uma das principais fontes de forragem, amplamente utilizada para alimentação animal na região Nordeste do Brasil. No entanto, essa forrageira é acometida por vários problemas de ordem fitossanitária, como o ataque de insetos, fungos, bactérias e nematoides. Diante do exposto, o objetivo dessa pesquisa foi identificar nematoides associados a palma forrageira Opuntia ficus-indica e Nopalea cochenilifera no estado da Paraíba. As amostragens de solo e raízes foram realizadas em palmais, onde foram coletadas 12 a 20 sub-amostras para compor uma amostra composta de 500g de solo. Para a extração dos nematoides das amostras de solo, utilizou-se a técnica conhecida como flotação centrífuga em solução de sacarose. A quantificação e identificação dos gêneros foi realizada com auxílio de um microscópio. Foram identificados um total desete gêneros de fitonematoides nas áreas de palma forrageira, sendo eles: Meloidogyne ssp; Helicotylenchus ssp; Mesocriconema ssp; Rotylenchulus ssp; Pratylenchus ssp; Trichodorus ssp; Psylenchus ssp..

Pharmaceutical gastro-retentive systems

Freqüentemente recorre-se à produção de sistemas gastrorretentivos para modular a liberação de fármacos a partir de sistemas farmacêuticos com vistas ao aumento do tempo de permanência do fármaco no trato gastrointestinal. Umas das estratégias mais interessantes passa pela produção de sistemas flutuantes. Estes podem ser classificados em dois grupos: sistemas flutuantes efervescentes e sistemas flutuantes não-efervecentes. Neste artigo apresenta-se uma revisão bibliográfica do que tem sido produzido nesta área nos últimos anos.Gastro-retentive systems are often produced in order to modulate drugs release from pharmaceutical forms and in this way to increase drug residence time in the gastrointestinal tract. One of the most interesting strategies consists in the preparation of floating devices. These can be classified into two groups: effervescent systems and non-effervescent systems. A review of what has been done in the last years is presented in this article

Histomorfometric Analysis of Duodenum of Rats Submitted to Food Stress / Análise Histomorfométrica do Duodeno de Ratos Submetidos ao Estresse Alimentar

Stress was interpreted as a nonspecific reaction of the organism to a situation that would threaten its homeostasis. Several factors in the modern world can be related to this condition: the search for a perfect body, the labor market dispute or the pressure to conquer everything as fast as possible. Associated with these factors, one can add the intense, naturally stressful, routine in which man is inserted. At the experimental level, several effects are observed at a systemic and behavioral level in rats that have been submitted to food restriction models, finding that the gastrointestinal system is quite vulnerable to stress in general. In specific cases of food stress, it was observed that the manifestations vary according to the life stage of the animal and the applied model. In this sense, the present research aims to evaluate the influence of food restriction on the intestinal tunica morphology of rats submitted to a chronic food stress model. For this, 27 animals were divided into control (n = 11) and test (n = 16) groups. From the 60 th day of life, the test group was submitted to four stages, each one being performed in one day: 1) palatable diet; 2) visual stimulation to the diet, but without access; 3) fasting; 4) standard diet of the biotery. The four steps were repeated until the animals completed 90 days. In the morphometry of the duodenum were analyzed: length, width and area of vill, as well as area of intestinal gland (Lieberkühn). Statistical inference of data showed that the applied stress model affected the morphology of the stressed group, since the intestinal villi appeared wider and with less area in this group. The villi length as well as the intestinal gland area did not undergo morphological changes. The alterations found reinforce that the fasting process acts as a stressor and a predisposing factor for morphological alterations, as observed in other studies in our laboratory. However, there are not many studies in the literature that allow the knowledge of the consequences of this type of stress. In this case, further research is needed on the relationship between the gastrointestinal tract and the experimental model applied to elucidate such findings

Growth and biomass production of prickly pear in the second cycle irrigated with treated domestic sewage

This study aimed to evaluate, in the second cycle, the growth and production of ‘Orelha-de-elefante Mexicana’ prickly pear (Opuntia sp.) under complementary irrigation with treated domestic sewage. The experiment was carried out in the Milagre Settlement, municipality of Apodi-RN, Brazil, from June 2016 to February 2017. Five treatments were evaluated, corresponding to four irrigation frequencies (2.3, 7.0, 14.0 and 21.0 days) to apply an effluent depth of 3.5 mm, and the control, rainfed cultivation (without irrigation). The experimental design was randomized blocks, with four replicates. After preliminary-primary treatment, the domestic sewage showed acceptable chemical and physical characteristics for fertigation under the conditions adopted in the prickly pear cultivation. 234 days after the 1st cut in the plants, the following morphometric characteristics were measured: plant height and length, width, perimeter, thickness and number of primary and secondary cladodes, and biomass accumulation. Complementary irrigation with treated domestic sewage effluent applied at intervals of 2.3, 7.0, 14.0 and 21.0 days allowed satisfactory growth and production of ‘Orelha-de-elefante Mexicana’ prickly pear; without irrigation, its development was substantially hampered during the dry period. Complementary irrigation with 3.5 mm of domestic sewage effluent applied at intervals of 2.3, 7.0 and 14.0 days led to highest growth and biomass accumulation in ‘Orelha-de-elefante Mexicana’ prickly pear

Score CTo-aBCDE : um novo score preditor de sucesso nas CTOs

© 2020 Sociedade Portuguesa de Cardiologia. Published by Elsevier España, S.L.U. This is an open access article under the CC-BY-NC-ND license (http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/).Introduction: Patient selection for percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in chronic total occlusions (CTOs) is crucial to procedural success. Our aim was to identify independent predictors of success in CTO PCI in order to create an accurate score. Methods: In a single-center observational registry of CTO PCI, demographic and clinical data and anatomical characteristics of coronary lesions were recorded. Linear and logistic regression analysis were used to identify predictors of success. A score to predict success was created and its accuracy was measured by receiver operating curve analysis. Results: A total of 377 interventions were performed (334 patients, age 68±11 years, 75% male). The success rate was 65% per patient and 60% per procedure. Predictors of success in univariate analysis were absence of active smoking (OR 2.02, 95% CI 1.243-3.29; p=0.005), presence of tapered stump (OR 5.2, 95% CI 2.7-10.2; p8 with high probability (95%). Conclusion: In our sample only anatomical characteristics were predictors of success. The creation of a score to predict success, with good accuracy, may enable selection of cases that can be treated by any operator, those in which a dedicated operator will be desirable, and those with an extremely low probability of success, which should be considered individually for conservative management, surgical revascularization or PCI by a team experienced in CTO.info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersio
