Prevalência de lesões periapicais em dentes tratados endodonticamente

O objetivo deste estudo foi verificar foi verificar a prevalência das lesões periapicais persistentes pós terapia endodôntica convencional. As lesões periapicais persistentes foram removidas através de cirurgia paraendodôntica, apicetomia seguida de retropreparo com pontas ultrassônicas e retroobturação com MTA. Os espécimes foram armazenados em formol a 10%, perfazendo um total de 107 amostras. As lesões foram encaminhadas para o serviço de anatomia Patológica da FOB-USP para análise microscópica, através da técnica de cortes seriados. Os resultados obtidos das 107 lesões estudadas foram: Cisto periapical (48), Granuloma (43), Abscesso crônico (2), Fibrose periapical (3) e outros (11). Dentre as lesões analisadas no presente estudo podese concluir a maior prevalência de cistos periodontais apicais, seguido de granulomas apicais e outras patologias

The role of bedding in the formation of fault–fold structures,

Fold-fault structures within a major transpressional shear zone of the SW Iberian Massif were investigated by combining geological mapping, cross-section analysis and microtectonic studies. A significant example of contractional deformation is displayed in the Portalegre-Esperanc¸a Shear Zone (PESZ) where a heterogeneous Ordovician stratigraphic sequence, showing a strong competence contrast between quartzites, slates and quartzo-feldspathic rocks favoured strain localization and fault nucleation that controlled fold formation. The presence of pelitic layers within the thick-bedded quartzites had probably provided weakness zones that were more favourable for the strain localization than the previous foliation present in the quartzites. The quartzites and the quartzo-feldspathic rocks (granites and volcaniclastic rocks) accommodated heterogeneous high strain developing different degrees of mylonitization. The quartzites with protomylonitic textures are dominant and represent coarse-grained siliciclastic sediments that suffered metamorphism and partial dynamic recrystallization. Ultramylonites occur within discrete high-strain shear zones. It is probable that the strain localization in the PESZ involved both the effect of having layers of different competence and layers or stratigraphic contacts with rocks that experienced grain size reduction dominated by cataclasis and dislocation creep. Folds within quartzites with sub-horizontal to gently plunging hinges vary from closed to open in thick-bedded quartzites and from tight to closed in thin-bedded quartzites. Observed changes in structural style of deformed quartzites, slates and quartzo-feldspathic rocks are interpreted to result from the constraints imposed by the mechanical properties of the different lithologies. As the folds tightened during shortening, the alternating zones of contrasting competence favoured the disruption of the bedding. The deformation history in the PESZ was dominated by thrusting and strike-slip faulting along incompetent layers that locally developed staircase geometry and transected the lower Ordovician stratigraphic sequence. The kinematic model proposed for the PESZ is consistent with the models of transpressional shear zones stretched along strike with the development of coeval strike-slip and low angle oblique-slip faults associated to active buckle folds with axes parallel to the principal extension directio

Mental health first aid programs: a scoping review protocol

Objective: This review aims to map mental health first aid programs and identify the characteristics and participants of such programs and the contexts of their implementation. Introduction: Mental health first aid is the help provided to a person developing a mental health problem or undergoing a mental health crisis. The first aid is provided until professional help is accessed or the crisis is resolved. Inclusion criteria: This scoping review will address programs that provide basic mental health first aid skills, with no exclusion criteria in terms of participants or contexts. Methods: English, Portuguese and Spanish published studies and unpublished papers, from 2009 to 2019, will be considered. A scoping review will be conducted following the guidelines of JBI and the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic reviews and Meta-Analyses extension for Scoping Reviews. The search will be carried out in databases, scientific repositories and reference lists. Duplicates will be removed and two independent reviewers will screen the titles, abstracts and full-text of the selected studies. Data collection will be performed with a tool developed by the researchers, based on JBI's model instrument for extracting study details, characteristics and results. A summary of the results will be presented in visual representations, narratives and tables.info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersio

Review of mental health first aid programs

Mental health first aid programs are interventions to empower the community to help people with mental health problems/ crises. A review of these programs was conducted in accordance with the guidelines of the Joanna Briggs Institute. Published and unpublished works from 2009 to 2019 were considered. The review included 252 studies. Several Mental Health First Aid programs were identified, with varying characteristics, participants, and contexts of implementation. These group interventions were carried out among lay people to health professionals, and in adolescents to the elderly. Additionally, they were conducted in-person and/or virtually, using psychoeducational methods and informational materials. The programs ranged from 30 minutes to 24 hours. These interventions can address nursing foci, and the characteristics of the facilitators are similar to those of mental health nurses. Therefore, this review highlighted the opportunity for nurses to explore Mental Health First Aid programs.info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersio

O capital humano e o índice de desenvolvimento da educação básica : o caso da qualidade do ensino no sistema federal e estadual

Orientador: Angela WeltersMonografia(Graduação) - Universidade Federal do Paraná,Setor de Ciências Sociais Aplicadas, Curso de Ciências EconômicasResumo: A educação tem sido motivo de frequentes debates e estudos, sobretudo quando é vista como instrumento capaz de não somente alterar o quadro social de um país como alavanca-lo economicamente. Essa dinâmica somada a Teoria do Capital Humano permite construir uma perspectiva embasada em transformações sociais. Devido a pouca clareza na literatura sobre o indicador estatístico de qualidade do ensino relacionado com os fatores condicionantes, este trabalho teve como objetivo comparar o desempenho dos Colégios Militares com as melhores Escolas Estaduais mediante o Índice do Desenvolvimento da Educação Básica. A pesquisa qualitativa compilou dados referentes aos anos 2009, 2011 e 2013 e teve como base de dados INEP. Como resultados, observaram-se que as melhores condições de aprendizado, proficiência, infraestrutura, equipamentos, condições de trabalho do docente, indicadores socioeconômicos dos alunos e menores complexidade de gestão da escola concentram nos Colégios MilitaresAbstract: Education has been the subject of frequent debates and studies, especially when it is seen as an instrument to not only change the membership of a country as a lever it economically. This dynamic plus the Human Capital Theory allows you to build an informed perspective on social change. Due to lack of clarity in the literature on statistical indicator of education related to the conditioning factors, this study aimed to compare the performance of Military Colleges with the best state schools through the Basic Education Development Index. Qualitative research compiled data for the years 2009, 2011 and 2013 and had as INEP database. As a result, we observed that the best learning conditions, proficiency, infrastructure, equipment, the working conditions of teachers, students' socioeconomic indicators and lower complexity of school management focus in Military School

Reliability-centered maintenance: analyzing failure in harvest sugarcane machine using some generalizations of the Weibull distribution

In this study we considered five generalizations of the standard Weibull distribution to describe the lifetime of two important components of harvest sugarcane machines. The harvesters considered in the analysis does the harvest of an average of 20 tons of sugarcane per hour and their malfunction may lead to major losses, therefore, an effective maintenance approach is of main interesting for cost savings. For the considered distributions, the mathematical background is presented. Maximum likelihood is used for parameter estimation. Further, different discrimination procedures were used to obtain the best fit for each component. At the end, we propose a maintenance scheduling for the components of the harvesters using predictive analysis

Medicinal Plants in Pregnancy and Lactation: Perception of the Health Risk and Practical Educational Group in Araraquara, São Paulo State, Brazil

The use of medicinal plants among pregnant women and lactating is a common practice in diverse countries. However, many medicinal plants are contraindicated during pregnancy and lactating, due to various adverse effects, such as teratogenic, embryotoxic and abortive effects, exposing these women, their fetus and babies to health unknown risks. Thus, the purpose of this commentary, was to analyze the perception about the use of medicinal plants by pregnant women and lactating registered in the "baby on board" NGO, Araraquara, São Paulo state, Brazil, between 2010 at 2013. The group was constituted by 48 women, between the first and last trimester of pregnancy or whilst breastfeeding. Information was collected during group meetings by oral interview, using a questionnaire, as script. The nature of the study was a qualitative analysis. The results were based on reports about the use of medicinal plants by pregnant women during group meetings: use, indication of use, knowledge about risks. All participants received written and oral information about the study and they gave a written informed consent. The use of medicinal plants is a reality among pregnant and lactating women of the "baby on board" NGO. They reported that they feel that "natural" products are not harmful for their health. The primary information sources for the majority of women about medicinal plants during pregnancy are family, neighbors and herbalists. The plants most cited were: senna, chamomile, boldo, lemon balm, lemon grass. They were used mainly for: nausea, heartburn, indigestion, flatulence, intestinal and abdominal pain, anxiety, intestinal constipation and low milk production. The pregnant and lactating women lacked knowledge about the health risks of the use of medicinal plants and herbal medicines in pregnancy and lactation. They also reported difficulties in clarifying some questions about the use of medicinal plants with their doctors. The results of the present study showed that educative actions about the rational use of medicinal plants in pregnancy and breastfeeding could be part of the operating protocols to promote the maternal and child health programs in Araraquara. Thus, our results also suggest the importance of creating institutionalized places, to the implementation of continued education programs about rational use of medicinal plants in pregnancy and lactation. These targeted programs are not only for health professionals, but also for community members, pregnant women and breastfeeding. Our results pointed out the importance of guidance of doctors and healthcare professionals on the scientific studies about medicinal plants and herbal medicines and the risk/benefit of using herbs during pregnancy. Finally, it is noted the importance of the health professionals to inform women of childbearing on risks to their health, as well as on possibilities of utilization of herbs during fertile period, giving special attention to the potential risk of self-medication

eCrash: a framework for performing evolutionary testing on third-party Java components

The focus of this paper is on presenting a tool for generating test data by employing evolutionary search techniques, with basis on the information provided by the structural analysis and interpretation of the Java bytecode of third-party Java components, and on the dynamic execution of the instrumented test object. The main objective of this approach is that of evolving a set of test cases that yields full structural code coverage of the test object. Such a test set can be used for effectively performing the testing activity, providing confidence in the quality and robustness of the test object. The rationale of working at the bytecode level is that even when the source code is unavailable structural testing requirements can still be derived, and used to assess the quality of a test set and to guide the evolutionary search towards reaching specific test goals
