Human Papillomavirus in Brazilian women with and without cervical lesions
<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Human Papillomavirus (HPV) high-risk (HR) types are the causal factor for cervical cancer and premalignant dysplasia. Data on frequency of HPV types provide a basis to design and evaluate HPV prevention programs. Taking into account the heterogeneity of HPV types across and within populations this study aims to access the HPV frequency in Brazilian women.</p> <p>Results</p> <p>We identified 24 different types of HPV, including a <it>Betapapillomavirus </it>and a likely new type, previously reported, from 132 women positive for the virus analysed by Hybrid Capture II assay. These women were infected by a single or multiple HPV types and 142 HPV strains were identified. HR types were found in 75% of women and HPV types 16, 18, 45, 58, and 66 had the highest frequency. Significant differences in frequency of HR HPV types were found for presence of cervical lesions, and for different HPV species and women age.</p> <p>Conclusions</p> <p>Compared with previous studies in Brazil, our data indicated differences in frequency and HPV type diversity, a significant association of other HR-types but HPV16 and 18 and cervical lesions, and a trend for distinct distribution of HPV types by age.</p
Phenols, essential oils and carotenoids of Rosa canina from Tunisia and their antioxidant activities
The antioxidant activity of leaf extracts of Rosa canina from diverse localities of Tunisia were evaluated by ABTS and DPPH methods, whereas in those of essential oils and carotenoids extracts such activity was determined only by the ABTS method. Total phenols determined by the Folin method revealed that at Aindraham, samples showed a great variability of phenol content in contrast to those from Feija. After chemical analysis of the essential oils by gas chromatography (GC) and gas chromatography coupled to mass spectra (GC-MS), revealed that the oils of Feija were predominantly composed of palmitic acid, vitispirane, linoleic acid, lauric acid, myristic acid and phytol acetate, while in thosesamples from Aindraham predominated vitispirane, palmitic acid, linoleic acid and phytol acetate. Higher concentrations of b-carotene and lycopene were found in the samples from Aindraham after determination by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). All samples possess antioxidant activity, nevertheless much more significant in phenol extracts in contrast to the carotenoid extracts, which possess the lowest activity

Normas que vulneran el desarrollo urbano de nuestras ciudades
This study carries out the documentary and historical analysis of several countries, compares theories and similar studies that show the consequences of urban expansion as a result of the population increase, specifically in Peru. Theoretically, the urban development process should be carried out respecting the guidelines established in the management instruments and public policies. Fact that does not occur and that is aggravated by the negative impacts on the environment and the soil, resulting in the poor quality of life of Peruvians and the lack of urban sustainability. This research analyzes the problem in relation to the number of norms and laws that are issued from the Peruvian State: legislative power, executive power, regional and local governments, among others. The organic law of each government agency grants functions that allow it to develop specific norms that, in most cases, violate the existing norms on national strategic planning that are not elaborated in a transversal and multisectoral manner, on the contrary, in many cases they are they contravene and in others they overlap. Currently, there are very few urban plans and the few that exist do not consider the technical aspects required for their effectiveness and the scarce citizen participation.Este estudio realiza el análisis documental e histórico, de varios países, compara teorías y estudios similares que muestran las consecuencias de la expansión urbana como resultado del incremento poblacional, específicamente en el Perú. Teóricamente, el proceso de desarrollo urbano debe realizarse respetando los lineamientos establecidos en los instrumentos de gestión y políticas públicas. Hecho que no ocurre y que se agrava con los impactos negativos al ambiente y al suelo, redundando en la mala calidad de vida de los peruanos y en la falta de sostenibilidad urbana. Esta investigación analiza la problemática frente a la cantidad de normas y leyes que se emiten desde el Estado peruano: poder legislativo, poder ejecutivo, gobiernos regionales y locales entre otros. La ley orgánica de cada organismo gubernamental otorga funciones que le permiten elaborar normas específicas que, en la mayoría de los casos vulneran las normas existentes sobre el planeamiento estratégico nacional que no son elaboradas de manera transversal y multisectorial, por el contrario, en muchos casos se contravienen y en otros se superponen. Actualmente, existen muy pocos planes urbanos y los pocos que existen, no consideran los aspectos técnicos requeridos para su efectividad y la escaza participación ciudadana
Interés público y constitución giratoria
Public policies must start from compliance with the constitutional charter. In its Public policies must start from compliance with the constitutional charter. In its article 65, from 1993 it establishes the consumer protection guarantee. However, in flagrant contradiction and evident discrimination, the last paragraph of Article 62, grants guarantees and assurances, only for a certain type of contract, the law-contracts. Guarantees can be established and guarantees can be granted and cannot be legislatively modified. They are constitutionally protected. This, when colliding with articles 1, 2.1, 2.2, 2.14 and 59 of the same instrument, evidently produces a conflict in the constitutional structure. Is it possible to formulate public policies, based on an unconstitutional constitution ? In Perú, yes. We have been doing it with law contracts for 28 years. We are facing a revolving constitution.Las políticas públicas, deben de partir del cumplimiento a la carta constitucional. En su artículo 65°, desde 1993 establece la garantía de Protección al consumidor. Sin embargo, en flagrante contradicción y evidente discriminación, el último párrafo del Artículo 62°, otorga garantías y seguridades, solo para un determinado tipo de contrato, los contratos-ley. Se puede establecer garantías y otorgar seguridades y no pueden ser modificados legislativamente. Están protegidos constitucionalmente. Esto, al colisionar con los artículos 1°, 2.1°, 2.2°, 2.14° y 59° del mismo instrumento, evidentemente produce un conflicto en la estructura constitucional. ¿Es posible formular políticas públicas, en base a una constitución inconstitucional? En el Perú, sí. Lo venimos haciendo con los contratos ley, desde hace 28 años. Estamos ante una constitución giratoria

This is an open-access article distributed under the terms of the Creative Commons Attribution License, which permits unrestricted use, distribution, and reproduction in any medium, provided the original author and source are credited.The Surf-Salva Camp 2016 project aimed at promoting social inclusion, wellbeing, and mental health, as well as developing beach security values and social citizenship in children and youth in foster care institutions, through surfing (Surf-Therapy). Participants were 48 adolescents aged 10 to 16, selected from 4 foster institutions in the greater Lisbon district.
Results suggest that intervention through surf therapy had a number of positive effects: exploration, effort and perseverance, problem-solving, time management, social competencies, interpersonal relationships and emotional regulation all developed among the participants throughout the project.
Results support the claim that within a suitable theoretical framework, with a solid and well trained team and with adequate psychotherapeutic supervision and evaluation, Surf Therapy can be a very promising possibility in the care of at-risk young people, and policy makers should consider this suggestion in the development of policies related to vulnerable institutionalized young people.info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersio
