From the colonial village to the coffee city : a journey through S?o Paulo's visuality.

Neste artigo, propomos apreender a historicidade dos processos urbanos em curso em S?o Paulo na passagem do s?culo XIX para o XX por meio de um exerc?cio metodol?gico que consiste em escrever nossa caminhada pela iconografia da capital paulista, principalmente pelas imagens fotogr?ficas que a constitui. Posto que a caminhada encerra algo que n?o pode ser explicado, que somente pode ser praticado, em um primeiro momento ofereceremos ao nosso leitor um percurso pela visualidade da capital paulista e, em seguida, as associa??es que fabricamos ao longo do percurso com o prop?sito de compreender como o processo de produ??o do territ?rio urbano, mediado pela especula??o imobili?ria, foi captado e mostrado pelo trabalho de fot?grafos que atuaram ou que ainda atuam em S?o Paulo.In this paper, we propose to apprehend the historicity of urban processes in progress in Sao Paulo from the 19th to the 20th century, per a methodological exercise that consists of writing our walk through the iconography of the city of Sao Paulo, especially through the his photographic images. Since the walk contains something that can not be explained and can only be practiced, first of all we will offer to our reader a route of the city of Sao Paulo and then the associations we made along the journey, for the purpose of to understand how the process of production of urban territory, mediated by real estate speculation, was captured and shown by the efforts of photographers who have worked or who still work in Sao Paulo

Semantic Web Services for Multi-Agent Systems Interoperability

Agent-based technologies are often used including existing web services. The outputs of some services are also frequently used as inputs for other services, including other MAS. However, while agent-based technologies can be used to provide services, these are not described using the same semantic web technologies web services use, which makes it difficult to discover, invoke and compose them with web services seamlessly. In this paper, we analyse different agent-based technologies and how these can be described using extensions to OWL-S. Additionally, we propose an architecture that facilitates these services’ usage, where services of any kind can be registered and executed (semi-)automatically.The present work has been developed under the PIANISM Project (ANI|P2020 40125) and has received funding from FEDER Funds through NORTE2020 program and from National Funds through Fundação para a Ciência e a Tecnologia (FCT) under the project UID/EEA/00760/2019.

RESPIRATORY ACTIVITY OF APICAL MERISTEMS OF PLAGIOTROPIC BRANCHES OF Araucaria angustifolia (Bertol.) Kuntze

Araucaria angustifolia apresenta redu\ue7\ue3o da taxa de crescimento durante o ano, podendo ser resposta \ue0s condi\ue7\uf5es ambientais desfavor\ue1veis, como ocorre nas fruteiras de clima temperado, que apresentam dorm\ueancia de gemas como forma de sobreviv\ueancia. O objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar a din\ue2mica da atividade respirat\uf3ria de meristemas apicais de ramos plagiotr\uf3picos de Araucaria angustifolia. Foram coletadas amostras de 0,4 g de brota\ue7\uf5es terminais de ramos plagiotr\uf3picos de plantas jovens e adultas, as quais foram mantidas em 5 mL de solu\ue7\ue3o de cloreto de 2,3,5 trifeniltetraz\uf3lio (1,2%) em sala de crescimento a 25\ub0C. Em seguida, foram mantidas em 4 mL de \ue1lcool et\uedlico absoluto para leitura por espectrofotometria da absorb\ue2ncia a 560 nm. A atividade respirat\uf3ria de meristemas apicais de ramos plagiotr\uf3picos de Araucaria angustifolia \ue9 vari\ue1vel durante o ano. A maior atividade respirat\uf3ria ocorre na metade da primavera e a menor atividade respirat\uf3ria ocorre no inverno, em plantas jovens e adultas. Plantas adultas permanecem em alta atividade respirat\uf3ria por um per\uedodo maior, at\ue9 o in\uedcio do ver\ue3o.Araucaria angustifolia decreases its growth ratio during the fall and winter in response to adverse environmental conditions such as in temperate fruits where bud dormancy as a survival startegy. The aim of this study was to evaluate the dynamics of the respiratory activity of apical meristems of plagiotropic branches of Araucaria angustifolia. To determine the respiratory activity, samples with 0.4 g of apical buds of plagiotropic branches of young and adult plants were collected. These buds were maintained during two hours in 5 mL of 2,3,5-triphenyl tetrazolium chloride (1.2%) in a growth room at 25 \ub0C. Then, it was maintained during one hour in 4 mL of absolute ethyl alcohol and then the absorbance was determined by reading in spectrophotometer at 560 nm. The respiratory activity of apical meristems of plagiotropic branches of Araucaria angustifolia changed during the year, reducing in mid-spring and become lower in the winter in both young and adult plants. Adult plants remained with lower respiratory activity for a longer period, until the beginning of summer

The application of Bonelike® Poro as a synthetic bone substitute for the management of critical-sized bone defects - A comparative approach to the autograft technique - A preliminary study

The effective treatment of non-unions and critical-sized defects remains a challenge in the orthopedic field. From a tissue engineering perspective, this issue can be addressed through the application bioactive matrixes to support bone regeneration, such as Bonelike®, as opposed to the widespread autologous grafting technique. An improved formulation of Bonelike® Poro, was assessed as a synthetic bone substitute in an ovine model for critical-sized bone defects. Bone regeneration was assessed after 5 months of recovery through macro and microscopic analysis of the healing features of the defect sites. Both the application of natural bone graft or Bonelike® Poro resulted in bridging of the defects margins. Untreated defect remained as fibrous non-unions at the end of the study period. The characteristics of the newly formed bone and its integration with the host tissue were assessed through histomorphometric and histological analysis, which demonstrated Bonelike® Poro to result in improved healing of the defects. The group treated with synthetic biomaterial presented bone bridges of increased thickness and bone features that more closely resembled the native spongeous and cortical bone. The application of Bonelike® Poro enabled the regeneration of critical-sized lesions and performed comparably to the autograph technique, validating its octeoconductive and osteointegrative potential for clinical application as a therapeutic strategy in human and veterinary orthopedics.This research was supported by Projects PEst-OE/AGR/UI0211/2011 from FCT , and COMPETE 2020 , from ANI – Projetos ID&T Empresas em Copromoção , by the project “insitu.Biomas – Reinvent biomanufacturing systems by using an usability approach for in situ clinic temporary implants fabrication” with the reference POCI-01-0247-FEDER-017771 , by the project “Print-on-Organs – Engineering bioinks and processes for direct printing on organs” with the reference POCI-01-0247-FEDER-033877 , and by the project “Bone2Move - Development of ‘in vivo’ experimental techniques and modelling methodologies for the evaluation of 4D scaffolds for bone defect in sheep model: an integrative research approach” with the reference POCI-01-0145-FEDER-031146 .

Health behavior change and complementary medicine use: National health interview survey 2012

© 2019 by the authors. Licensee MDPI, Basel, Switzerland. Background and objectives: Complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) use has been associated with preventive health behaviors. However, the role of CAM use in patients’ health behaviors remains unclear. This study aimed to determine the extent to which patients report that CAM use motivates them to make changes to their health behaviors. Materials and Methods: This secondary analysis of 2012 National Health Interview Survey data involved 10,201 CAM users living in the United States who identified up to three CAM therapies most important to their health. Analyses assessed the extent to which participants reported that their CAM use motivated positive health behavior changes, specifically: eating healthier, eating more organic foods, cutting back/stopping drinking alcohol, cutting back/quitting smoking cigarettes, and/or exercising more regularly. Results: Overall, 45.4% of CAM users reported being motivated by CAM to make positive health behavior changes, including exercising more regularly (34.9%), eating healthier (31.4%), eating more organic foods (17.2%), reducing/stopping smoking (16.6% of smokers), or reducing/stopping drinking alcohol (8.7% of drinkers). Individual CAM therapies motivated positive health behavior changes in 22% (massage) to 81% (special diets) of users. People were more likely to report being motivated to change health behaviors if they were: aged 18-64 compared to those aged over 65 years; of female gender; not in a relationship; of Hispanic or Black ethnicity, compared to White; reporting at least college education, compared to people with less than high school education; without health insurance. Conclusions: A sizeable proportion of respondents were motivated by their CAM use to undertake health behavior changes. CAM practices and practitioners could help improve patients’ health behavior and have potentially significant implications for public health and preventive medicine initiatives; this warrants further research attention

Corticosteroid effect upon intestinal and hepatic interleukin profile in a gastroschisis rat model

PURPOSE: To evaluate the effect of corticosteroids on intestinal and liver interleukin profile in an experimental model of gastroschisis in fetal rats. METHODS: Sprague-Dawley rats at 19.5 days of gestation had its fetuses operated for the creation of gastroschisis. Two groups of fetuses were studied with and without maternal administration of dexamethasone. Each group was composed of fetuses who underwent gastroschisis (G), control fetuses without manipulation (C) and sham fetuses (S). A dosage of the following interleukins was carried out in fetal intestinal and liver tissues: IL-1, IL-6, IL-10, tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-&#945;) and interferon-gamma (IFN-&#947;). The differences between the groups and subgroups were tested by ANOVA with Tukey post-test, with significant values of p<0.05. RESULTS: Dexamethasone led to an increase in intestinal and liver IL-6 (p<0.05) and a decrease in intestinal TNF-&#945; (p<0.001) in fetuses with gastroschisis. CONCLUSION: Corticosteroids had an effect on the intestinal interleukin profile and a small effect on the liver interleukin profile due to immunological immaturity of the fetus, and also of fetuses with gastroschisis. The steroid action may not be exclusively anti-inflammatory, but also pro-inflammatory, varying with time of pregnancy
