Esporte da escola e esporte na escola: modelo pedagógico na Educação Física
Authors: Ganzer Rafael Anthony , Ribeiro Andréa Jaqueline Prates
Published: July 2020

No que tange as aulas de Educação Física, o esporte é temática protagonista. O presente estudo objetivou investigar o modelo pedagógico utilizado pelos professores de Educação Física da rede municipal de ensino da cidade de Barracão, PR, utilizando para fundamentação da pesquisa um estudo descritivo de natureza qualitativa. A amostra da pesquisa foi constituída por 4 professores pertencentes a rede municipal de ensino do município, utilizando-se de entrevistas semiestruturadas, observação simples das aulas e diário de campo. Posteriormente, os resultados foram manuseados através de uma análise de conteúdo. Observou-se a escolha predominante ao “Esporte Da Escola”, no entanto somente metade dos indivíduos apresentou um emparelhamento com sua prática pedagógica, evidenciando uma imprecisão ao domínio conceitual dos modelos de esporte, e, na contramão, o restante dos investigados equiparando a contextualização de sua prática ao “Esporte Na Escola”. É necessário o domínio e a clareza sobre ambos modelos e a ciência das consequências quando aplicados: supressivo e priorizando o jogo com códigos e sentidos da instituição esportiva (Esporte Na escola) ou democrático na busca pela participação coletiva e introduzindo o aluno no universo cultural das atividades físicas (Esporte Da escola). Foi possível se constatar que, do total da amostra, 50% dos professores se utilizaram do modelo pedagógico “Esporte Da Escola” alinhando-se ao seu discurso prévio (mesmo demonstrando imprecisão sobre domínio conceitual) e 50% usufruíram do modelo “Esporte Na Escola”, contradizendo sua fala inicial em que afirmavam a preconização sobre o modelo pedagógico democrático supracitado (percebendo-se, inclusive, rasa apropriação de conhecimento nas dissertações).

Authors: Ferreira Neto José Olímpio , Da Silva Robson Carlos
Published: July 2020

A Capoeira resiste nas periferias das grandes cidades assumindo status educacional, formal ou não formal, é reconhecida de diversas formas pela sociedade, inclusive como patrimônio cultural, sendo assim, indispensável o registro de sua história e memórias. O objetivo desse trabalho foi investigar o legado educacional do Mestre Chitãozinho para a Capoeira alencarina, compreendendo o período que ministrou treinos no Projeto ABC do João XXIII, localizado na periferia de Fortaleza-CE. Dessa forma, pensa-se que esse trabalho está contribuindo para o registro da memória local, contando a história do homem comum. Trata-se de uma pesquisa de natureza qualitativa com suporte na memória, por meio de contato virtual, sob um olhar (Net)etnográfico, narrativa autobiográfica e questionário. Conclui-se que o seu legado educacional colaborou para a formação de outros mestres de capoeira que ministram treinos em projetos sociais, fazem palestras, ministram oficinas colaborando, dessa forma, para a divulgação da Capoeira alencarina, da periferia de Fortaleza.
Narrativas autobiográficas de professoras da educação básica: a constituição da identidade docente como processo permanente
Authors: Stascxak Francinalda Machado , Silva Santana Juliana
Published: July 2020

Este estudo inscreve-se numa perspectiva formativa, proveniente de dois encontros desenvolvidos com professoras que atuam na educação básica. Tendo emergido desse contexto plural, esse estudo teve o objetivo de compreender o processo de constituição da identidade profissional docente através de narrativas autobiográficas de professores da educação básica. Para tal fim, foi desenvolvida uma pesquisa denominada pesquisa narrativa, com abordagem qualitativa. Como principal achado da pesquisa, destaca-se o fato de as professoras relatarem certa incipiência de seus saberes, gerando insegurança diante das demandas do cotidiano escolar. Com o desenvolver das etapas da pesquisa, as professoras perceberam que, na verdade, a formação inicial não dá conta de tudo e que novas perspectivas de formações futuras devem ser consideradas. Conclui-se, assim, que as experiências vivenciadas durante todo o processo formativo dos professores contribuem para que seus saberes, sua identidade e suas práticas sejam permanentemente ressignificadas.
Saberes docentes e sua relação com a didática no processo de ensino
Authors: Freitas Munique de Souza , Oliveira Danielle Rodrigues
Published: July 2020

O objetivo desse artigo teórico é discutir a relação dos saberes docentes com a didática. A abordagem teórica se utiliza dos conceitos-chaves de Tardif (2002) que define quatro tipos de saberes, influenciadores da formação e da práxis docente, e também da teoria da relação do saber de Charlot (2000) que, em contraponto à Tardif, apresenta a necessidade de mobilização, de sentido e de atividade na apropriação do saber. Assim, para este autor, o aprendizado acontece quando o saber possui sentido e causa alguma mobilização interna no sujeito. Com a pesquisa bibliográfica, foi possível concluir que a construção e a apropriação do saber dependem de vários objetos de aprendizagem os quais não se prendem a conceitos teórico-práticos. Além disso, observou-se que uma teoria não desqualifica a outra, a interação social com a escola, o ambiente, os alunos e o mundo são conceitos comuns apresentados por ambos.

Authors: Souza Rosely Monte , Astigarraga Andrea Abreu
Published: July 2020

Esta pesquisa tem como objetivo comparar a concepção de infância entre Carlos, menino de engenho, obra literária de José Lins do Rego, Pacu, personagem do filme Abril Despedaçado e a infância de uma das pesquisadoras. É uma pesquisa de abordagem qualitativa descritiva, de análise de infâncias tanto da literatura, do cinema e da vida real, discutido as diferentes formas de infância e como elas sofrem influência do contexto onde vivem. São perceptíveis as diferenças sociais e econômicas entre as três histórias, o privilégio de ser um menino de engenho, com as oportunidades diferentes na escolarização, a presença do trabalho infantil - fruto de subsistência e negação das políticas públicas. Assim como as semelhanças entre as formas de brincar, os conflitos familiares, a ausência da mãe.

Authors: Ribeiro Mariana Da Silva Nogueira , Dias Marlene Alves , Figueiredo Helenara Regina Sampaio
Published: July 2020

Este artigo tem como objetivo analisar a noção de função quadrática comparando as relações institucionais, pessoais esperadas e existentes, representadas pela abordagem desenvolvida em três livros didáticos: um das séries finais do Ensino Fundamental, um do Ensino Médio e o da disciplina de Matemática Instrumental para alguns cursos de Engenharia. Além disso, são analisadas as expectativas institucionais analisadas por meio da macroavaliação Sistema de Avaliação de Rendimento Escolar dos Estudantes do Estado de São Paulo (SARESP). Trata-se de uma pesquisa qualitativa que utiliza o método documental, que se apoia na Teoria Antropológica do Didático, de Chevallard. As abordagens teóricas em termos de quadros e mudança de Douady, níveis de conceituação e de conhecimento definidos por Robert e pontos de vista segundo Rogalski complementam o referencial teórico. Desse modo, foi definida, a priori, uma grade com as categorias de análise dos tipos de tarefas sobre função quadrática que podemos encontrar na transição entre a Educação Básica e o Ensino Superior. Este estudo possibilitou identificar quais conhecimentos sobre a noção de função quadrática podem ser considerados como conhecimentos prévios mobilizáveis ou disponíveis para os estudantes que iniciam o curso de Engenharia, o que pode ajudar na proposição de novas formas de trabalho com esses estudantes.

Authors: Saadi Alessandro Da Silva , Machado Celiane Costa , Pereira Elaine Corrêa
Published: July 2020

Este trabalho tem por objetivo apresentar uma proposta de prática pedagógica que foi desenvolvida em um Curso de Pré- Cálculo Híbrido na Universidade Federal do Rio Grande- FURG. Para embasar essa proposta realizamos uma pesquisa nos anais das edições XI e XII do Encontro Nacional de Educação Matemática- ENEM. Optamos pela construção de um mapa teórico para analisar as temáticas que emergiram nas pesquisas sobre práticas educativas de Cálculo Diferencial e Integral (CDI). Para elaboração do mapa foram considerados os artigos referentes aos relatos de experiência e às comunicações científicas que continham a palavra CÁLCULO no título, que retratasse uma atividade pedagógica na área de CDI. No processo de análise dos resumos emergiram duas categorias, cujos temas versaram sobre tecnologias digitais no ensino de Cálculo e resolução de problemas e a história da Matemática como estratégia para ensinar/aprender Cálculo. Após o mapeamento, elaboramos uma atividade utilizando o software GeoGebra online no ensino de funções afim e quadrática para mostrar a ação dos coeficientes em cada uma das funções estudadas. Concluímos que os estudantes conseguiram visualizar com mais dinamismo quando o aplicativo foi utilizado.
Erros num caderno do aluno: uma oportunidade de aprendizagem inexplorada em matemática
Authors: Pêssuro (In memorian) Eduardo , Deixa Geraldo Vernijo , Chicote Rosalino Subtil
Published: July 2020

Este artigo é resultado de uma pesquisa que tem como objectivo averiguar o que professores de matemática fazem com erros cometidos pelos alunos decorrentes da resolução dos trabalhos de casa no caderno. Foram selecionados 20 cadernos de alunos da 10ª classe de 5 Escolas Secundárias de Lichinga. Foram entrevistados 5 professores de matemática das escolas. A análise de dados efectuada seguindo a abordagem qualitativa, revelou que as resoluções dos trabalhos de casa não têm merecido atenção dos professores. Constatou-se que os erros cometidos estão relacionados com a realização incorreta de uma operação; compreensão conceitual insuficiente e a aplicação indevida das regras algorítmicas. Concluímos que avaliação formativa não tem sido a prática frequente o que constitui uma perca de oportunidade para garantir aprendizagem dos alunos. Sugerimos que seja desenvolvido um instrumento de análise de erros capaz de ser utilizado pelos professores e alunos.
Anti-α-glucosidase and antiglycation activities of galls from Guiera senegalensis J.F. Gmel (combretaceae)

Published: July 2020

The hypoglycemic activity of Guiera senegalensis used in Burkinabe folk medicine has been already reported. The aim of this study was to investigate the in vitro antidiabetic activity from galls of G.senegalensis. The extracts and methanol fractions from galls of G. senegalensis showed strong α-glucosidase inhibitory activity compared with acarbose. The ethyl acetate fraction from methanol extract (EA/ME) showed potent antiglycation activity in an in vitro assay system. The galls did not show inhibition activity against α-chymotrypsin. The α-glucosidase inhibitory activity along with its antiglycation activity may open a new perspective for the use of G. senegalensis for the diabetic subject. The data suggests that consumption of G senegalensis galls as an infusion or in food and pharmaceutical preparations may be useful for the management of diabetes and its complications.

Published: July 2020

Polyphenols are groups of secondary metabolites in plants, known with their various biological activities, including their ability to act as antioxidants. Due to the side effects of the use of synthetic antioxidants on human’s health, the search for natural less toxic compounds has significantly increased. This study was carried out to evaluate the phenolic content and antioxidant activity of young and mature avocado (Persea americana) and mango leaves (Mangifera indica). Different extracts were prepared by maceration in methanol, ethanol, cold and hot water. The phenolic content of the extracts was determined using the Folic-Ciocalteu Method. A total of three antioxidant tests were done on the extracts: the 2, 2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl test (DPPH test), the Ferric reducing antioxidant power and the Hydroxyl radical scavenging activity. Results of these investigations generally showed that the mature leaves of mango and young leaves of avocado exhibited the highest phenolic and flavonoid contents, as well as the antioxidant activity. They can be recommended as good sources of antioxidants to reduce the damages caused by free radicals and reactive oxygenated species in the body. They can also be recommended as a source of antioxidants for the preservation of oils, food containing lipids and pharmaceutical products.
Contrasting physical controls on phosphorus transport to shallow groundwater at the hillslope scale
Authors: Fresne Maelle , Jordan Phil , Mellander Per-Erik , Daly Karen , Fenton Owen
Published: July 2020

Abstract. In well-drained agricultural catchments transport of phosphorus (P) to groundwater (GW) can be controlled by static and dynamic factors and where surface water is GW fed this can lead to elevated P concentrations at the catchment outlet. In order to better control P transport along hillslopes a spatial and temporal conceptual view of P loss to GW must be developed. Initially in the present study, hillslope GW quality and rainfall data were examined for 2017 utilising a transect of piezometers at upslope (US), midslope (MS) and downslope (DS) locations. Two dominant scenarios emerged where GW P concentrations at DS and MS were simultaneously low or at other times DS became elevated and MS remained low. To examine the potential reasons for such scenarios, a one-dimensional hydrological transport model was developed for the unsaturated zone at DS and MS using rainfall and depth specific soil physical and hydraulic data. Results indicated that the DS zone facilitated transport (higher sand content, soil saturated hydraulic conductivity (Ks) and lower soil compaction) with higher modelled concentration peaks towards higher GW P concentrations whereas the MS zone had more potential to attenuate transport (lower soil Ks and higher soil compaction). Moreover, inter-annual variations of GW P concentrations at DS were related to rainfall and GW level. Hence, mitigation strategies should particularly (but not exclusively) focus on reducing P sources in the DS zone. This also indicates a need to identify hotspots of facilitated transport to shallow GW using finer scale soil properties surveys. Here, this is defined by low soil compaction, high sand content and soil Ks. However, challenges arise as soil properties can vary in time with soil management and with the difficulty of assessing the transport potential of deeper soil.
Judaísmo, filosofía e historia. Acerca de la lectura arendtiana de Lessing, Mendelssohn y Herder en los tempranos años 30
Authors: Arese Laura
Published: July 2020

El objetivo de este artículo es reconstruir la lectura que realiza Hannah Arendt de Lessing, Mendelssohn y Herder en relación a sus abordajes de la cuestión judía, a comienzos de los años 30. El telón de fondo de esta lectura es la dificultad que, a juicio de la autora, evidencian los judíos europeos desde la emancipación para alcanzar una perspectiva política sobre su propia historia. Sostenemos que, en su lectura de estos filósofos, Arendt identifica una tensión entre razón e historia, cuya radicalización da como resultado una idea de razón incapaz de acoger la dimensión histórica de los pueblos en clave política. La consecuencia de esto es la frustración de las promesas políticas de la emancipación judía, y la afirmación de un modelo de asimilación desembarazado de la historia. Sin embargo, sostendremos también que, para Arendt, la Ilustración representada por Lessing y el romanticismo que encarna Herder, no se inscriben en una misma línea de continuidad. Por el contrario, Arendt encuentra tempranamente en Lessing un legado que conserva valor para el presente.
Estancia y carácter de apátrida. Un previo a propósito de “cuestiones políticas” en y desde Heidegger
Authors: Moreno Tirado Guillermo
Published: July 2020

En este trabajo se presenta una exposición sintética de un elemento previo a las cuestiones política en la obra de Heidegger que critica, implícitamente, el uso de su obra para defender propuestas que pretendan fundar comunidades en nuestro tiempo, los límites internos (al propio planteamiento de Heidegger) de los intentos heideggerianos por proponer una fundación de este tipo (ya sea bajo el nombre de estado, comunidad, pueblo, etc.) y de aquellos intentos semejantes que no tomen en consideración a este autor. El elemento previo es el problema de la “patria” (die Heimat) y su constitución de la “estancia” (der Aufenthalt) del hombre y el “carácter apátrida” (die Heimatlosigkeit) inherente al “estado civil” moderno y a la moderna “sociedad civil”.

O objetivo deste artigo foi analisar o desenvolvimento da Região Imediata de Dianópolis (RID), sudeste do Tocantins. Adotou-se o Quociente Locacional (QL) em relação ao pessoal ocupado em empregos formais nos oito setores econômicos, destacando a agricultura. Para cálculo do QL das atividades produtivas, coletou-se dados secundários na base de dados do Ministério do Trabalho e Emprego, entre 2006 e 2016. E, analisou-se a dinâmica do �?ndice Firjan de Desenvolvimento Municipal (IFDM), relacionando os valores deste com o QL. Observou-se que somente os munic�pios de Almas, Aurora do Tocantins e Novo Alegre possu�am QL significativo para agropecuária, extração vegetal, caça e pesca, em 2006. Por outro lado, 10 (71,4%) dos 14 munic�pios, possu�am QL significativo para Administração Pública em 2006, alterando para 11 (78,6%) em 2016. O desempenho locacional indica o avanço das atividades agropecuárias em 50% dos munic�pios da RID em 2016. O alto valor de QL para o referido setor em 2016 reflete os impactos positivos do projeto de irrigação Manoel Alves, inaugurado em 2008.

An Empirical Study of the Relationship between the Ranking of America’s Top States for Business and Unemployment Rate, Growth Rate of Employment, and Growth Rate of Gross State Product
Authors: Morgan Yun-Chen , Hsing Yu , Phillips Antoinette S. , Phillips Carl
Published: July 2020

This study attempts to determine whether the ranking of America’s top states for business by CNBC is correlated with state economic performance such as the unemployment rate, the growth rate of employment, and the growth rate of gross state product. Binary variables for the South and the West are also considered. The sample consists of 50 states in 2018. The results indicate that the ranking of America’s top states for business is correlated with each of these economic indicators. Regression analysis shows that the coefficient of the ranking in each of the three regressions is significant at the 1% level. A higher ranking for a state is associated with a lower unemployment rate, a higher growth rate of employment, and a higher growth rate of gross state product.

Authors: Kluczkovski Ariane M. , Silva Allyne C. P. da , Barroncas Janaína , Lima Jacqueline , Pereira Henrique , Mariosa Pedro , Vinhote Maria Luana
Published: July 2020

Drying is fundamental in the processing of Brazil nuts to prevent contamination by aflatoxins which are produced by fungi, as well as to extend the shelf life of the product. The binomial time/temperature is applied to guarantee the efficiency of drying stages. In this context, the objective of this study was to evaluate the parameters of moisture content (mc) and water activity (Aw) in processed and unprocessed nuts obtained from a processing plant in the Amazonas state, Brazil, during the harvests of 2019 and 2020. Differences were observed regarding Aw between the harvests, and in processed and unprocessed samples. However, for mc, no differences between years or interaction between factors were observed. Processed samples from 2019 and 2020 showed a significant reduction in moisture content when compared to unprocessed samples and this may be because some modernization occurred in the drying process and raw material was stored under better conditions. We therefore conclude that the time/temperature binomial has a direct impact on product safety and should be applied from the moment of collection of raw material until the industrial process begins to guarantee economic maintenance of the production chain.

Published: July 2020

Giant cell arteritis is a large-vessel vasculitis usually seen in older adults. The inflammatory process results in systemic, ophthalmic, and neurological lesions. It is difficult to diagnose in older adults and may present as a medical emergency. Here, we report the case of an 83-year-old woman who presented with bitemporal headache, jaw claudication, glossodynia, failure to thrive, and amaurosis fugax. The findings supported the hypothesis of giant cell arteritis. Despite receiving treatment, the patient died of an acute myocardial infarction. Headache in older adults raises the possibility of giant cell arteritis, especially when combined with an ophthalmic emergency. Many symptoms indicate the condition, but the diagnosis may be challenging, especially for the generalist physician.
Visual loss resulting from siderosis bulbi caused by a missed intraocular foreign body
Authors: Nicoara Simona Delia , Damian Ioana
Published: July 2020

Introduction: Intraocular foreign bodies (IOFB) represent an important cause of visual impairment, especially within the group of working age population.

Case report: A 38-year-old male presented with severe left eye pain, accompanied by left headache, visual loss, redness, photophobia, tearing and nausea, 30 months following a minor left eye trauma when hammering metal on metal. Eye ultrasound identified a small intraocular foreign body as well as the crystalline lens luxated into the vitreous cavity. Pars plana vitrectomy was carried out with the extraction of the foreign body and of the lens. Pain was relieved, but vision was not regained.

Conclusion: The poor outcome of this case follows from a combination of unusual factors: ophthalmologists’ failure to identify an occult IOFB and the lack of patient’s concern about his eye condition, until the moment when he experienced excessive pain and vision was already lost.

Published: July 2020

In this article, we discussed about four antihistamine drug called promethazine, loratadine, cetirizine and buclizine. Promethazine in this list is the only one in first generation antihistamine classification with CNS sedation effect and the other three belongs to second generation antihistamine group which are non-sedation and used to treat in many different anti-allergenic fields. In the following we optimized potential, kinetic and total energy of these molecules at body temperature (310 k˚) and environment temperature (298 k ˚) using Mont Carlo method in Amber force field in 500 ns. The quantum mechanics calculations and molecular structure of these molecules investigated using B3LYP level of theory with 6-31 G (d) as a basis set. Theoretical computations were performed to study thermodynamic parameters and frequency analysis. Electronic, thermal, zero point and gibs free energy and enthalpy were estimated in frequency analysis. Semi empirical computations were summarized to pm3 method and different energy parameters (total energy, Binding Energy, Isolated Atomic Energy, Electronic Energy, Core–Core Interaction and Heat of Formation.

Published: July 2020

This research was conducted to determine the effect of temperature on the chemical content and crystal structure of the cement clinker with 10% substitution of basalt on the mass of limestone. The cement clinker is made from the composition of limestone, basalt stone, clay, silica stone and iron sand. Basalt stone used came from the East Lampung area. The basalt stone has fulfilled ASTM C618 standard with a total compound of SiO2 + Al2O3 + Fe2O3 of 79.2%. The raw material was then mixed, milled, formed into pellets with a size of 0.8 - 1.4 cm and continued with combustion at calcination temperatures of 1000 ℃, 1100 ℃ and 1200 with a holding time of 2 hours. Based on the results of the XRF test (X-Ray Fluorecence) of the three cement clinker samples with variations in temperature used, the sample is closer to the standard at a temperature of 1000 ℃. For the XRD (X-Ray Diffraction) test results, the three samples have tetragonal, monoclinic, rhombohedral, and orthorhombic crystal structures. As for the MO test results, there was a strong binding between iron sand, limestone, clay, and silica sand characterized by a smooth surface while basalt stones that look like black holes were not completely bound.
Eosinophilic gastritis-a rare diagnosis
Authors: Ali Sana , Yednock Joel B.
Published: July 2020

Introduction: Eosinophilic Gastritis (EG), one of the less common amongst Eosinophilic Gastrointestinal Disorders (EGID),with a prevalence of 6.3 cases/100.000, is an uncommon cause of unspecific abdominal symptoms, including epigastric pain.Case: A 23-year-old female, was admitted with recurrent episodes of nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain and weight loss. She was discharged one week previously after being treated for similar symptoms. The patient had failed an outpatient treatment with a Proton Pump Inhibitor (PPI). During her re-admission, Esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD) was performed, and results were significant for gastritis without ulcers or esophagitis. While awaiting biopsy results, the patient experienced a minimal improvement in her symptoms with intravenous fluids and PPI. Extensive workup remained negative except of eosinophilia in peripheral blood. Gastric mucosal biopsy revealed eosinophilic infiltrates in Lamina Propria, confirming the diagnosis of Eosinophilic Gastritis. Helicobacter pylori on immunohistochemistry was negative. The patient was counseled regarding the Six Food Elimination Diet for the management of this condition. Her symptoms began to improve under dietary restrictions. Repeated EGD with biopsy at 12 weeks showed resolved eosinophilic infiltrates.Discussion: EG remains a rare diagnosis, and it should be included as a differential diagnosis in every patient with refractory symptoms of nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, and failure to thrive. Diagnosis of EGID is established after the exclusion of other causes of eosinophilia in the gastrointestinal tract.
The Current State of Orthopaedic Educational Leadership
Authors: Bi Andrew S. , Fisher Nina D. , Singh Sameer K. , Strauss Eric J. , Zuckerman Joseph D. , Egol Kenneth A.
Published: July 2020

Introduction:

It is important to understand the current characteristics of orthopaedic surgery program leadership, especially in the current climate of modern medicine. The purpose of this report was to describe the demographic, academic, and geographic characteristics of current orthopaedic chairs and program directors (PDs).

Methods:

Orthopaedic surgery residency programs were obtained from the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education website and cross-referenced with the Electronic Residency Application Service, identifying 161 residency programs for the 2018 to 2019 cycle. All data were collected in January 2020 to best control for changes in leadership. Demographic and academic information were collected from public websites. For geographic analysis, the United States was divided into five regions, and training locations were categorized as appropriate.

Results:

A total of 153 chairs and 161 PDs were identified. 98.0% of chairs were men versus 88.8% of PDs (P = 0.001). Chairs had been in practice and in their current position for longer than PDs (26.4 vs 16.8 years [P < 0.005] and 9.1 vs 7.1 years [P = 0.014], respectively). Chairs had more publications and were more likely to be professors than PDs. PDs were more likely to remain at both the same region and institution that they trained in residency. The most common subspecialty was sports among chairs and trauma among PDs, although when compared with national averages orthopaedic trauma and orthopaedic oncology were the most overrepresented subspecialties.

Conclusion:

Orthopaedic chairs are more likely to be men, have had longer careers, and have more academic accomplishments than their PD counterparts. Geography appears to have an association with where our leaders end up, especially for PDs. Subspecialization does not notably influence leadership positions, although orthopaedic trauma and orthopaedic oncology surgeons are more commonly represented than expected. This report serves to identify the current state of orthopaedic leadership and may provide guidance for those who seek these leadership positions.
Robotics and Navigation as Learning Tools for Fellows Training in Hip Arthroplasty
Authors: Shapira Jacob , Diulus Samantha C. , Rosinsky Philip J. , Maldonado David R. , Lall Ajay C. , Domb Benjamin G.
Published: July 2020

Introduction:

The association between implant malpositioning and complications has been repeatedly demonstrated. Recently, technological advancements have allowed for more consistent implant placement. Beyond this obvious application, these technologies may also serve as a learning tool. Thus, the aim of this study was to evaluate the accuracy of fellows' estimation of implant positioning using a robotic system.

Methods:

Data were prospectively collected for all patients undergoing total hip arthroplasty between September 2019 and December 2019. The fellow was blinded to the robotic system. Before reaming and broaching by the senior surgeon, the fellow was asked to place the reamer at 40° of cup inclination and 20° of version. The resulting values were recorded before the true measurements were revealed. A similar process was followed for femoral broaching.

Results:

The mean difference between the estimated and actual cup inclination and version was 7.24° (P = 0.060) and 4.81° (P = 0.031), respectively. The mean difference in broach version was 7.00° (P = 0.159). Without the robotic system, 43.47% and 69.57% of patients would have had the cup placed outside of the safe zones described by Lewinnek and Callanan, respectively.

Conclusion:

The estimated anteversion of the acetabular implant was found to be markedly different from its actual anteversion. A considerable portion of the cups would have been positioned outside of the Lewinnek and Callanan “safe zones” provided that the implants would have been manually positioned. The use of robotic or navigation systems may provide useful learning tools for fellows in training to understand their own inaccuracies in estimated implant position and hence refine their abilities.

This paper provides an empirical assessment of the relationship between the structure of the banking market and the cost of credit in the WAEMU. The analysis focuses on WAEMU countries except for Guinea-Bissau due to the lack of sufficiently long series. The study covers the period from 1996 to 2017. Using the fully modified ordinary least squares (FMOLS) method, we show that the banking market concentration ratio has a double effect on the cost of credit. First, the concentration ratio increases the cost of credit, and second, it decreases the cost of credit after reaching a threshold of 70 percent. Moreover, the results highlight the positive impact of the money market interest rate on the cost of credit. On the other hand, the inflation rate unexpectedly lowers the cost of credit in the WAEMU.
Plasma Antennas
Authors: Anderson Theodore
Published: July 2020

We have demonstrated that one or two plasma tubes can be used to focus, spread, and steer antenna beams. We have also shown that we can simulate convex and concave plasma lenses by using cylindrical plasma tubes. Focusing by a plasma is useful because it can be used to increase the gain of an antenna, and to quickly reconfigure the beamwidth as needed without physically moving the antenna. With this technology, there is no need for phased arrays to steer and focus an antenna beam. Beam steering with a plasma allows tuning to different frequencies which is a difficult task for standard antennas. Our experimental results with 44 GHz showed a dramatic improvement in beam steering and focusing characteristics compared to beam focusing and steering at 24 GHz. The shorter wavelength compared to the spatial variation in plasma density over the radius of the plasma tube, the easier it is to steer and focus antenna beams. These results have been incorporated in a new smart plasma antenna design.
Guillain-Barre Syndrome and Miller Fisher Variant in Zika Virus Disease
Authors: Hammad Seroor Jadah Raafat
Published: July 2020

Guillain-Barre syndrome (GBS) is a serious neurological disorder associated with a rapid progressive ascending muscle paralysis, and it is the most common neurological autoimmune disorder that affects the peripheral nervous system, which is usually triggered by viral or bacterial infection. GBS is rare in children and characterized by rapid progressive onset ascending muscle weakness associated with pain and sensory dysfunction. Miller Fisher syndrome (MFS), a variant of GBS, is rare in pediatric population which is typically manifested by ataxic gait, ophthalmoplegia, and areflexia since it is rare in children. It is vitally important to early diagnose this condition and to initiate early treatment to prevent further complications and long-term morbidity. Since the outbreak of Zika virus, the incidence of GBS has been increased. Zika virus associated with autoimmune anti-ganglioside antibodies trigger which lead to GBS development. Zika virus infection should be strongly considered in patients who present with classical signs of Miller Fisher syndrome, especially travelers and residents from endemic areas.
Speech Standards: Lessons Learnt
Authors: Baggia Paolo
Published: July 2020

During the past decades, the landscape of speech and DTMF applications has changed from being based on proprietary platforms to being completely based on speech standards. The W3C Voice Browser Working Group played a primary goal in this change. This chapter describes that change, highlights the standards created by the W3C VBWG, and discusses the benefits that these standards have provided in many other application fields, including multi-modal interfaces.
Overcoming Barriers to Urban Flood Resilience: A Case of Hyderabad, India
Authors: Sehra Vikas , Punia Milap
Published: July 2020

Cities are increasingly faced with frequent floods disrupting everyday lives. Adapting to flood risks and conserving eco-sensitive sites are central to social ecological resilience. Rapidly expanding cities are found short of mitigating the adverse environmental impacts. For enhancing flood resilience, it is important to understand the interaction of the key stakeholders and its impact on governance and land use in the cities. Land use change in urban space is constantly influenced by negotiations among various interest groups. The urban governance structures are increasingly dominated by neoliberal approaches of profit maximization. Following a heuristic framework for policy analysis of land use change and governance, the present study assesses the barriers in building flood resilient cities. We apply the framework to Hyderabad city of Telangana, India, which has faced the recurring challenge of flooding. Results demonstrate the lack of urgency in implementing disaster management initiatives and contradictions in existing policies. This study points out the redundancy of elected municipal bodies for taking flood resilience measures, due to increasing proliferation of nondemocratic administrative bodies and underlines the need to bridge the gap through agendas cutting across sectors and institutions.

Emerging Treatment Options for the Management of Metastatic Colorectal Cancer
Authors: Deming Dustin A.
Published: July 2020

An improved understanding of the molecular landscape of metastatic colorectal cancer (CRC) has opened the door for new treatment options. Clinicians should test for molecular alterations that predict resistance to epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) inhibitors, such as KRAS and NRAS, and additionally clinically actionable alterations, including BRAF V600 mutations, HER2 amplification, NTRK fusions, and mismatch repair deficiency. Improved outcomes can be achieved with precision treatment strategies for the various CRC subtypes, although clinical features, such as tumor bulk and patient performance status, still help to guide treatment choice. Immune therapies have also produced impressive results in patients with mismatch repair–deficient/microsatellite instability–high tumors. These newer approaches were recently incorporated into the NCCN Guidelines for Colon and Rectal Cancers. In the future, these newer approaches may be used in earlier treatment settings.
Current Topics in the Management of Non–Muscle-Invasive Bladder Cancer
Authors: Spiess Philippe E.
Published: July 2020

The current NCCN Guidelines for Bladder Cancer reflect the most up-to-date, evidence-based data relating to the evaluation and management of non–muscle-invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC). The most notable revision to the guidelines this year is the addition of pembrolizumab for a high-risk subset of patients not responding to bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG). It is anticipated that current BCG shortages will offer unique opportunities to promote and enhance clinical trials for patients with bladder cancer. Recent efforts to more precisely define BCG-unresponsive disease (adopted by the FDA) have been critical to standardizing definitions and evaluating the efficacy of clinical trials in bladder cancer.
Abacaxi ‘pérola’ produzido em floresta do Araguaia/PA: elaboração e perfil sensorial de produtos artesanais saborizados
Authors: Rocha Juliana Guimarães , Santos Neto João Paixão dos , Oliveira Igor Vinícius de , Carvalho Fabio Israel Martins , Silva Priscilla Andrade
Published: July 2020

O abacaxi da cultivar ‘Pérola’ é muito apreciado no mercado brasileiro interno devido à sua polpa ser suculenta e saborosa. O trabalho objetivou elaborar produtos artesanais (geleia e doce em massa) saborizados com flor de camomila e canela em pau, e avaliar suas características sensoriais. Para obtenção dos produtos foram elaboradas as seguintes formulações (F1: 30% de polpa de abacaxi; 35% de açúcar; 15% de xarope de glicose; 20% de albedo de maracujá; F2: 30% de polpa de abacaxi; 35% de açúcar; 15% de xarope de glicose; 19,95% de albedo de maracujá; 0,05% de flor de camomila desidratada e F3: 30% de polpa de abacaxi; 35% de açúcar; 15% de xarope de glicose; 19,9% de albedo de maracujá; 0,1% de canela em pau), as polpas concentradas e com/sem partículas foram acrescidas em função do teor de sólidos solúveis, a quantidade de açúcar suficiente para elevar a 65 (geleia) e 70°Brix (doce em massa). As análises microbiológicas realizadas nas polpas e nos produtos artesanais elaborados foram fungos filamentosos e leveduras, Salmonella spp., Coliformes a 35 e a 45°C e Staphylococcus coagulase positiva. Para a avaliação sensorial foram realizados os testes de aceitabilidade para os seguintes parâmetros: aparência, aroma, textura, sabor e impressão global; assim como o índice de aceitação e a intenção de compra dos produtos. Os resultados das análises sensoriais dos produtos elaborados foram submetidos à análise de variância através do teste de Tukey a 5% de probabilidade. Os resultados verificados nas polpas de abacaxi e nos produtos elaborados, indicaram ausência de microrganismos para 25 g de amostra. Todos os parâmetros avaliados no teste de aceitação sensorial obtiveram notas médias entre 7 (gostei moderadamente) e 8 (gostei muito), indicando aceitação e intenção de compra dos produtos por parte dos provadores. Segundo os resultados observados na avaliação sensorial, os produtos podem se tornar uma opção tecnológica para os frutos de abacaxi devido a elevada aceitabilidade (97,48 a 98,45), assim como uma forma alternativa de renda para o pequeno produtor da região do Sudeste do Pará.
