"Matemática? Eu trabalho primeiro no concreto": elementos para a história do senso comum pedagógico
Authors: Valente Wagner Rodrigues
Published: October 2017

Resumo: O texto analisa um dos elementos presentes na cultura escolar do ensino de matemática nos primeiros anos escolares. Trata-se do senso comum pedagógico que indica como forma correta da docência nesse nível de ensino "trabalhar primeiro no concreto". A análise é realizada por meio de um estudo histórico tendo em conta artigos publicados por revistas pedagógicas na última década do século XIX. São considerados autores que têm os seus estudos voltados para a chamada História Cultural. Como resultado, verifica-se que "trabalhar primeiro no concreto" é herança pedagógica vinda do movimento pelo ensino intuitivo, vaga internacional que se constituiu em verdadeira contracultura pedagógica nas últimas décadas do século retrasado. Tal herança é reelaborada e chega aos dias atuais sobretudo a partir do uso de materiais didático-pedagógicos para o ensino do sistema de numeração decimal.

Authors: Solia Fabiana Scassiotti Fernandes , Silva Silvia Sidnéia da
Published: October 2017

Resumo: Estudo qualitativo que, por meio de uma pesquisa-ação, objetivou avaliar a efetividade dos processos dialógicos em Língua de Sinais, na educação para saúde, visando ao autocuidado de adolescentes surdos. Para a coleta de dados, realizaram-se entrevistas semiestruturadas, com cinco adolescentes surdos de um município do sul de Minas Gerais. A análise dos dados se deu por categorização em um diálogo com Paulo Freire. Os resultados apontaram a falta de autonomia e consciência das ações para o autocuidado. Na ação educativa, feita por meio das Rodas Dialógicas, constatou-se a motivação dos adolescentes surdos a (inter)agirem e refletirem sobre os significados da mudança no status e na prática de receptores a construtores de conhecimentos para o autocuidado. Concluindo, verificou-se a necessidade da mobilização na busca de novas práticas e fazeres visando à formação de cidadãos autônomos e responsáveis por sua saúde, considerando as peculiaridades linguísticas da pessoa surda.

Published: October 2017

Resumo: Este trabalho apresenta os resultados de uma intervenção didática, realizada por uma professora de física, envolvendo os conceitos de tempo e espaço para alunos indígenas de uma aldeia em Mato Grosso do Sul. Trata-se de pesquisa qualitativa de caráter exploratório. O corpus de análise é formado por dois conjuntos de dados: pré-teste envolvendo a noção de espaço e tempo dos alunos indígenas, e uma atividade sobre estratégias de medição de tempo e espaço. A coleta de dados foi feita durante as aulas de física para uma turma de 13 alunos, com idades variando entre 18 e 29 anos. Foi possível observar que medições de espaço e tempo através de estratégias tradicionais ainda estão presentes, apesar de muitos indígenas não valorizarem estes conhecimentos. Todo conhecimento tradicional que possa ser trazido para reflexão na escola, junto com o conhecimento científico, contribui para uma compreensão ampliada e ressignificada desses conhecimentos para os alunos indígenas.

Published: October 2017

Resumo: A utilização criativa dos espaços não formais pode ajudar a romper o ensino tradicional e proporcionar, por meio de práticas interdisciplinares, no estudo do Sistema Terra, a construção de valores, conhecimentos e habilidades. As aulas de campo favorecem a compreensão da relação entre o espaço vivido e as informações obtidas em sala de aula, permitindo ao aluno maior familiaridade com aspectos físicos e naturais de sua região. O trabalho apresenta uma investigação no campo das metodologias de ensino de Ciências, que ocorreu em um espaço não formal, as falésias de Marataízes, ES. O objetivo foi destacar as aulas de campo como uma metodologia pedagógica que favorece uma leitura crítica do mundo e o trabalho colaborativo. As aulas de campo revelaram a indissociabilidade entre sujeito e objeto da aprendizagem e propiciaram oportunidades para reconhecer as relações homem/ambiente, permitindo a aquisição da consciência das transformações na natureza pelo viés da alfabetização científica.
O conceito de modo de vida: entre traduções, definições e discussões
Authors: Braga Gustavo Bastos , Fiúza Ana Louise Carvalho , Remoaldo Paula Cristina Almeida
Published: October 2017

Resumo A concepção de “modo de vida” tem sido muito utilizada nas Ciências Sociais, principalmente, para assinalar mudanças culturais, tal como pode ser observado desde Durkheim, Weber, Wirth, Rambaud, Lefebvre, Bourdieu, dentre outros. No entanto, o termo “modo de vida” assume uma pluralidade de significados, dificultando a compreensão das nuances interpretativas que o perpassam. As traduções para o português de estudos em língua inglesa e francesa, por vezes, apresentam termos idênticos para ideias originalmente distintas. Dada essas ambiguidades na definição do modo de vida, esse artigo se propõe a analisar os significados a ele atribuídos na literatura nacional e internacional. Como metodologia foram utilizados dados secundários oriundos de artigos e teses que utilizam o termo modo de vida e/ou traduzem a terminologia para a língua portuguesa, aplicando-se a análise em redes como ferramenta para avaliar o seu uso. Os resultados indicaram que termos distintos em sua língua original, como no francês genre de vie e style de vie, têm, rotineiramente, a mesma tradução para o português, modo de vida, reforçando a imprecisão do termo.

Published: October 2017

ABSTRACT The low prevalence of dementia described in communities is likely due to the low sensitivity of screening tests and an absence of evaluation by specialists. OBJECTIVE: To estimate the prevalence of mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and dementia in adults older than 50 years. METHODS: A two-phase, cross-sectional study was conducted by specialists to evaluate cognition and associated demographic risk factors in 1,235 independent community-dwelling adults from Bogotá. In Phase I, screening was performed using the MMSE and MoCA tests. In Phase II, after application of a comprehensive neuropsychological battery with neurologic and psychiatric evaluations, a cognitive diagnosis was established by consensus. RESULTS: The prevalence found for MCI was 34% and for dementia was 23%. MCI was associated with incomplete high school, OR=1.74 (95%CI=1.23-2.45), and with an age of 70-79 years, OR=1.93 (95%CI=1.47-2.53). A total of 73% of MCI cases were amnestic. Dementia was associated with incomplete primary education, OR=8.98 (95%CI=5.56-14.54), complete primary education, OR=6.23 (95%CI=3.70-10.47), and age older than eighty years, OR=3.49 (95%CI=2.23-5.44). CONCLUSION: The prevalence of dementia found was greater than the rates reported in previous studies. Low educational level was the main risk factor for cognitive impairment and should be considered in strategic planning for the local health system.

Published: October 2017

ABSTRACT Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is a neurodevelopmental disorder primarily characterized by deficits in social interaction, communication and implicit skill learning. OBJECTIVE: To analyse the results of research on "motor learning" and the means used for measuring "autistic disorder". METHODS: A systematic literature search was done using Medline/PubMed, Web of Science, BVS (virtual health library), and PsycINFO. We included articles that contained the keywords "autism" and "motor learning". The variables considered were the methodological aspects; results presented, and the methodological quality of the studies. RESULTS: A total of 42 studies were identified; 33 articles were excluded because they did not meet the inclusion criteria. Data were extracted from nine eligible studies and summarized. CONCLUSION: We concluded that although individuals with ASD showed performance difficulties in different memory and motor learning tasks, acquisition of skills still takes place in this population; however, this skill acquisition is related to heterogeneous events, occurring without the awareness of the individual.
Disease awareness may increase risk of suicide in young onset dementia: A case report

Published: October 2017

ABSTRACT Studies report that people with young onset Alzheimer's disease (YOAD) have higher levels of disease awareness compared to those with late onset AD. We report a case of a man with YOAD who had preserved awareness of disease, depression and risk of suicide associated with the development of the dementia. Cognitive functioning, disease severity, depressive symptoms and awareness of disease were assessed using validated measures. The person with YOAD showed a moderate level of disease severity and high degree of dependence for activities of daily living. There was recognition of memory problems and routine changes with presence of intense pessimism, low self-esteem and suicidal ideation. This case points to the existence of specific issues related to young onset dementia and the clinical importance of identifying and treating patients who might be aware of their condition.
Foreign Cloth, Local Habits: Clothing, Regalia, and the Art of Conversion in the Early Modern Kingdom of Kongo
Authors: Fromont Cécile
Published: October 2017

ABSTRACT From their king’s decision to embrace Catholicism at the turn of the sixteenth century to the advent of imperial colonialism in the late eighteen hundreds, the men and women of the central African kingdom of Kongo creatively mixed, merged, and redefined local and foreign visual forms, religious thought, and political concepts into the novel, coherent, but also constantly evolving worldview of Kongo Christianity. Sartorial practices and regalia in particular showcased the artful conversion of the realm under the impetus of its monarchs and aristocrats. In their clothing and insignia, the kingdom’s elite combined and recast foreign and local, old and new, material and emblems into heralds of Kongo Christian power, wealth, and, eventually history. I propose to use the concept of the space of correlation as a key to analyze these elaborate, and constantly evolving religious, political, and material transformations through an attentive focus on cultural objects such as clothing, hats, swords, and saint figures.
Vistas sobre arte africana no Brasil: lampejos na pista da autoria oculta de objetos afro-brasileiros em museus
Authors: Salum Marta Heloísa (Lisy) Leuba
Published: October 2017

RESUMO Examinando objetos relacionados aos antigos candomblés preservados em coleções, Marianno Carneiro da Cunha perfilou uma tradição estética nagô-iorubana criada no Brasil que tem sido considerada como uma das primeiras formulações da arte afro-brasileira, se não uma continuidade da arte africana no Brasil. Expandimos a amostragem enraizada nessa tradição descrita por esse estudioso, chegando a um novo corpus que apresentamos neste artigo, tentando estabelecer as potencialidades da análise estilística que ele empregou, e introduziu no Brasil, como procedimento metodológico no estudo da cultura material de origem africana. Os dados obtidos revelam que, muito além do que originalmente representam, esses objetos podem se constituir apenas em um repertório visual emblemático de abordagens híbridas da produção acadêmica sobre as culturas africanas tanto quanto sobre o negro no Brasil, caso eles não venham a ser retomados através das suas expressões de materialidade próprias e individuais.
Moeda e troca na constituição moderna
Authors: Viana Diego
Published: October 2017

Resumo O artigo propõe uma interpretação da concepção clássica da moeda como instrumento neutro de trocas mercantis puras a partir do conceito de constituição proposto por Bruno Latour em Jamais Fomos Modernos. Trata-se de sustentar a hipótese da associação entre a constituição epistêmica da modernidade e a ortodoxia monetária, na medida em que essa concepção moderna institui também uma esfera autônoma das trocas mercantis. Ao final, são levantadas questões sobre uma possível reconfiguração da concepção da moeda para corresponder a uma constituição que superaria as amarras da forma moderna.

ABSTRACT Objective: To assess the effect of pulsed electromagnetic field (PEMF) on the consolidation of instrumented lumbar posterolateral arthrodeses in patients who have been surgically treated for degenerative spine disease. Methods: Forty cases were recruited from 163 consecutive patients undergoing lumbar arthrodesis at the same center. The patients were randomized into two groups of 20 patients: Active Group, who were exposed to PEMF for 4 hours a day for 90 days after surgery, and Inactive Group, who received an identical device, with the same instructions for use but without the ability to generate PEMF. The patients underwent computed tomography scans at 45, 90, 180 and 360 days after surgery to check for the occurrence of arthrodesis at each operated spinal level. Results: In the course of the study, two patients were excluded from each group. There were no significant differences between the groups with respect to age, gender, smoking habit, or the number of vertebral levels included in the arthrodesis. The percentage of consolidation of the vertebral levels increased at 90, 180 and 360 days compared to 45 days (p<0.001) in both groups. The Active Group had a 276% greater chance of consolidation in the vertebral levels (OR = 3.76; 95% CI: 1.39-10.20), regardless of the time of evaluation. Patients in the Active Group presented 16% more consolidation than patients in the inactive group (p=0.018). Conclusions: Post-operative exposure to PEMF following instrumented arthrodesis of the lumbar spine for degenerative spine disease increased consolidation in the first year after surgery.

ABSTRACT Objective: To investigate the relationship between preoperative vitamin D and albumin levels and postoperative quality of life in patients undergoing spinal surgery. Methods: Patients undergoing thoracic and lumbar spine surgery were evaluated in this prospective study. Their vitamin D and albumin levels were assessed before surgery and quality of life was measured by two questionnaires, Oswestry Disability Index (ODI) and Scoliosis Research Society - 22 (SRS-22), one year after the procedure. Data on infection occurrence and healing time were collected. Preoperative nutritional values and patients’ quality of life were analyzed using the chi-square test and ANOVA for albumin and vitamin D, respectively. The relationship among nutritional status, healing time, and the occurrence of infection was evaluated by the Pearson correlation coefficient. Results: Forty-six patients were included and their mean nutritional values were 19.1 (6.6) ng/mL for vitamin D and 3.9 (0.6) g/dL for albumin [mean (standard deviation)]. No association was found between vitamin D and quality of life of patients measured by ODI (p=0.534) and SRS-22 (p=0.739) questionnaires. There was also no association between albumin levels and quality of life measured by ODI (p=0.259) and SRS-22 (p=0.076) questionnaires. No correlation was found between the healing time or occurrence of infection and nutritional values. Conclusions: There was no association between vitamin D and albumin levels and the surgical result, according to the patient’s perception, besides the occurrence of complications with the surgical wound.

Nephrin is a key structural component of the podocyte slit diaphragm, and proper expression of nephrin on the cell surface is critical to ensure integrity of the blood filtration barrier. Maintenance of nephrin within this unique cell junction has been proposed to require dynamic phosphorylation events and endocytic recycling, although the molecular mechanisms that control this interplay are poorly understood. Here, we investigated the possibility that the phosphotyrosine adaptor protein ShcA regulates nephrin turnover. Western blotting and immunostaining analysis confirmed that ShcA is expressed in podocytes. In immunoprecipitation and pulldown assays, ShcA, via its SH2 domain, was associated with several phosphorylated tyrosine residues on nephrin. Overexpression of ShcA promoted nephrin tyrosine phosphorylation and reduced nephrin signaling and cell surface expression in vitro. In a rat model of reversible podocyte injury and proteinuria, phosphorylated nephrin temporally colocalized with endocytic structures coincident with upregulation of ShcA expression. In vivo biotinylation assays confirmed that nephrin expression decreased at the cell surface and correspondingly increased in the cytosol during the injury time course. Finally, immunostaining in kidney biopsy specimens demonstrated overexpression of ShcA in several human proteinuric kidney diseases compared with normal conditions. Our results suggest that increases in ShcA perturb nephrin phosphosignaling dynamics, leading to aberrant nephrin turnover and slit diaphragm disassembly.

A bioquímica no geral é taxada como uma disciplina com alto grau de dificuldade, complexa e “chata”. Por outro lado, a aplicação de jogos lúdicos práticos e criativos como metodologia de ensino vem se disseminando em várias disciplinas em ciências biológicas. O jogo de tabuleiro “Biotecnological war” é uma proposta pensada como uma ferramenta complementar para o ensino de bioquímica de proteínas e peptídeos, desafiando os discentes, visando rever conceitos transmitidos em sala de aula, e estimulando aptidões dos estudantes, como sua criatividade, competitividade e gestão de recursos. Possibilitando ainda correlacionar a importância da bioquímica de proteínas e peptídeos com o desenvolvimento de produtos. Este jogo se mostrou uma excelente ferramenta de avaliação complementar dos alunos, e além de estimular o trabalho em equipe, também estimulou “um forte espírito competitivo”, o que permitiu analisar a percepção dos alunos em relação ao tema e principalmente o trabalho em grupo.
Taxes and the Fed: Theory and Evidence from Equities
Authors: Diercks Anthony M. , Waller William
Published: October 2017

We provide a critical theoretical and empirical analysis that suggests a key driver of fiscal effects on equity markets is the Federal Reserve. For the Post-1980 era, tax cuts lead to higher cash flow news and higher discount rates. The discount rate news tends to dominate such that tax cuts are associated with lower equity returns. This result is flipped for the Pre-1980 era. Our results are confirmed across multiple measures of tax shocks (narrative, SVAR, municipal bonds, etc.) at different frequencies (daily, quarterly, annual). We motivate our empirical findings with a standard New Keynesian model (in addition to the FRB/US model) that exhibits a shift in the aggressiveness of monetary policy. Moreover in our theoretical framework, downward nominal wage rigidities account for observed asymmetries in the response to tax cuts versus tax increases.
Urban orature and resistance: The case of Donny Elwood
Authors: Ngongkum Eunice
Published: October 2017

From their very origins, contemporary African artistic creations have been works of resistance. Born from the struggle against colonialism, these works continued in this trajectory when independence failed to deliver on the aspiration of the masses. Today's artists follow in the footsteps of their predecessors; resisting all forms of social injustice, economic inequality and political oppression that bedevil the post-independence arena. Using resistance aesthetics as critical tool of analysis, this paper seeks to examine the concept of resistance in the music of Donny Elwood. It aims at showing that urban orature, to which category Elwood's music belongs, is one of those sites in the postcolonial context where the struggle for liberation from all forms of oppression is continuously waged. The paper argues that, with its emphasis on sense and rhythm, and not dance, Elwood's music effectively communicates the artist's protest against socio-political contradictions in the postcolonial space while sensitizing the masses on the need for change. The discursive perspectives in his art reside in the interface between social interactions in the urban milieu and urban orature (witnessed in the blend of musical varieties, instruments and message). These effectively register his social commitment as an urban artist.

Questions of the need for treatment of oral diseases, problems and characteristics of providing dental care for children with developmental disorders, especially with autism spectrum disorders, both in Russia and abroad have very little coverage. Usual conditions for dental care for these children are unacceptable. A clear, scientifi¬cally based system of dental care is needed to reduce the number of diseases of the oral cavity. Results of stud¬ies of the dental status of children with autism spectrum disorders in foreign countries are presented in a brief review. Features and algorithm of dental care for children with autism spectrum disorders worked out by the staff of Yevdokimov Moscow State University of Medicine and Dentistry are described. Medical institutions providing dental care to children with autism spectrum disorders in Moscow are listed.

Personality And Experiencing In The Context Of Experiential Psychotherapy
Authors: Vasilyuk F.E. , Karyagina T.D.
Published: October 2017

In the late nineties an international association was organized, bringing together representatives of the person-centered and experiential approaches, continuing the tradition of C. Rogers and E. Gendlin. The name of the association includes two key categories: personality and experience. In the paper, from the perspective of co-experiencing psychotherapy, the links between these categories are discussed, and options for the relationship between them are analyzed. The contours of the personal character of the experience and the experiential vision of the personality are outlined. In the theory and practice of co-experiencing psychotherapy, such characteristics of experiencing as its active mode, multilevel structure, dialogic way of being, cultural-historical mediation are revealed. This allows us to talk about the relation of the individual to his/her experiencing, about his active participation in the experiencing. Not an experience is doing experiencing, but a person. For psychotherapy, this raises the task of comprehending the criteria of the “desired” attitude of the individual to his experience and the search for methods to help the client to achieve the most productive personal position. The personal nature of co-experiencing as the activity of the psychotherapist is discussed from the point of view of the embodiment of “personal centeredness” in the experiential approach. The paper is written in the genre of theoretical dialogue.

Indirect Effects of Copper Sulfate Addition on Zooplankton Communities in Ohio Upground Reservoirs
Authors: Williams Meghan C.W. , Conroy Joseph D. , Miner Jeffrey G. , Farver John R.
Published: October 2017

Municipal water managers use copper sulfate (CuSO4) to control algae, predominantly phytoplankton, in water supply reservoirs. In multiple-purpose upground reservoirs in northwestern Ohio, CuSO4 application regimens vary from no application to over 600 µg Cu/L/year. Whereas CuSO4 effectively suppresses phytoplankton growth, it also has documented toxicities to zooplankton, which serve as forage for stocked sport fish. Consequently, CuSO4 application benefits one upground reservoir use (water supply) while potentially negatively affecting another (sport fishing). This research sought to directly compare copper concentrations ([Cu]) in dissolved and particulate fractions with corresponding zooplankton community composition and abundance both before and after CuSO4 application in Ohio upground reservoirs. Copper concentrations and zooplankton community characters were measured at four upground reservoirs (n = 2 treated with CuSO4 and n = 2 untreated) over multiple weeks during summer 2010. Total [Cu] in treated reservoirs increased by as much as 428% from pre- (mean = 16.5 µg/L) to post-application (mean = 70.7 µg/L); concomitantly, zooplankton biomass and density decreased by as much as 93%. Post-application zooplankton communities shifted to dominance by small copepod nauplii from a mixed community that included larger cladocerans. Copepod nauplii represent a less-suitable food source for stocked juvenile yellow perch Perca flavescens. Thus, short-term negative effects to the zooplankton community may result from CuSO4 applications, indirectly affecting stocked sport fish success.

The Distribution and Abundance of mussels (Bivalvia: Unionidae) in Lower Big Walnut Creek from Hoover Dam to its Mouth, in Franklin and Pickaway Counties, Ohio
Authors: Hoggarth Michael , Grumney Michael
Published: October 2017

Big Walnut Creek in central Ohio once supported a mussel fauna of 40 species, but no systematic study of the mussels of the creek has been done. The objective of the current study was to determine the distribution and abundance of mussels in Big Walnut Creek downstream of Hoover Dam (RM 36.7) to its mouth with the Scioto River. The extant (living and freshly dead shells) and total (extant plus weathered and subfossil shells) mussel communities were determined at 21 sites. Two techniques were used to determine the mussel community at each site: timed searches and transect/quadrat sampling. Shannon-Weiner (H’) values, Jaccard Coefficient of similarity values, and percent extant species were calculated for the mussel communities at each location. Student T-tests were used to determine where either a significant change in community structure occurred based on the metrics listed above.  The mussel communities from Hoover Dam to Whitehall (RM 22.0) had maintained their diversity.  The historic and extant communities in this reach were essentially the same (Jaccard Coefficient = 83% and percent extant species = 78%) with H’ values for this reach not significantly different when comparing the total and extant communities (t = 1.08, p > 0.05).  The communities from RM 22.0 to RM 15.0 (just downstream of Three Rivers MetroPark) had fewer extant species (Jaccard Coefficient and percent extant values of 62% and 36%, respectively), and significantly diminished species diversity (t = 2.35, p < 0.05). Diminished species diversity continued to be expressed downstream (t = 2.48, p < 0.05), with some recovery (Jaccard Coefficient = 67% and percent extant = 42%) as we approached the mouth of the creek.  This improvement may be a result of movement of mussels (as larvae attached to fish hosts) from the Scioto River.
The Road to Teacher Burnout and its Possible Protecting Factors – A Narrative Review
Authors: Nagy Eszter
Published: October 2017

In this review study personality characteristics and workplace environment variables (with special attention to classroom conditions) areinvestigated regarding the phenomenon of teacher burnout in order to discover the basis of an effective intervention program. Regardingthe studies, the Maslach Burnout Inventory Educational Survey for burnout measurement(Maslach, Schaufeli, & Leiter, 2001)was applied in all of the researches. Samples have been collected from the USA and several countries of Europe. According to the results, workload and social support turned out to be major influencing factors as much aswork characteristicsare concerned, and positive affectivity, emotional stability and self-efficacy were the major influencing variables as much as personality characteristicsare concerned. As a conclusion of the correlating tendencies, a hypothesized model has been created, in order to explain the process of how an individual responds to his or her environment in the process of burnout, where the steps are: (1) emotional traits (e.g.: emotional stability, positive affectivity, extraversion) -> (2) perceived work environment and work characteristics -> (3) consideration about one’s ability to cope (self-efficacy, self-confidence) ->  (4) choice of a coping strategy -> (5) influence on the level of burnout (either increase or decrease).

Teaching Inclusive Classes: What Preservice Teachers in Israel Think About Their Training
Authors: Gilor Orit , Katz Michael
Published: October 2017

This article sought to add the voice of the preservice teachers to the discourse by presenting their perceptions regarding the appropriateness of their training for teaching in inclusive-education frameworks. Preservice teachers completing their first (N= 18) or third year (N= 18) in the various types of teacher-training programs (early childhood, primary school, and high school education) were interviewed. The findings of the qualitative analysis revealed that the various training programs differed in terms of the scope of training for inclusion as well as in their approach to inculcating inclusive teaching. Findings indicated that preservice teachers preparing to teach in mainstream schools expected to receive better training for inclusive teaching than what is currently offered in their training programs. The interesting point is that these expectations develop during teacher training. A discussion of the findings highlights the need to introduce changes in the existing training programs to ensure that preservice teachers acquire and internalize the principles of inclusive teaching.

Se caracterizó la estructura y diversidad de especies arbóreas en un bosque templado del noroeste de México. Se establecieron nueve sitios de muestreo de 50 x 50 m (2 500 m2) y se realizó un censo de todas las especies arbóreas. A cada individuo se le realizaron mediciones de altura total y diámetro a la altura del pecho. Se obtuvo el índice de valor de importancia (IVI), calculado a partir de las variables, abundancia, dominancia y frecuencia. También se calcularon los índices diversidad y riqueza. En total se registraron 12 especies, cuatro géneros y cuatro familias. El bosque presenta una densidad de 575.11 individuos ha−1 y un área basal de 23.54 m2 ha−1. La especie Pinus cooperi fue la de mayor IVI (79.05 %), y para el índice de Shannon tuvo un valor de 1.74.

Published: October 2017

Se evaluó el efecto de tres insecticidas botánicos comerciales sobre la mortalidad por residualidad e in- gestión en Tamarixia radiata. Se observó que el Biodie y NeeemPHC produjeron mortalidad del 12.7 y 12.3 %, por efecto de residual, respectivamente; y del 33.3 y 28.7 % mortalidad por ingestión. El tiempo también incrementó de forma signi cativa la mortalidad, aunque sólo por ingestión y hasta las 48 y 72 h con Biodie, y el mismo período por el NeeemPHC. El CinnAcar fue poco tóxico por ingestión y ninguno de los insecticidas botánicos tuvieron efectos signi cativos en la emergencia de adultos. Los tres productos evaluados no inter eren en el control biológico.

Los desafíos técnicos y cientí cos actuales para el cultivo del cacao implican la necesidad de evaluar múltiples atributos relacionados con la producción primaria y con los criterios de calidad. El estudio se realizó con el clon de cacao PH-16 en la zona húmeda de la región cacaotera de Bahia, Brasil. El objetivo fue conocer la in uencia del sitio de cultivo sobre las variables físicas y químicas antes y después de la fermentación de los granos de cacao. Las variables químicas más in uenciadas por el medio ambiente fueron el pH y la acidez total de los granos con mucílago, y el pH, acidez total e índice de pigmentos de los granos fermentados. El sitio de cultivo que corresponde al Argisol Amarillo Distró co latosólico, en el sistema agroforestal Cabruca con densidad media de 35 árboles de sombra por hectárea, presentó los granos con mejores atributos de calidad.

Published: October 2017

Se evaluó la seropositividad a Neospora caninum mediante ensayo inmunoenzimático (ELISA) y se de- tectó el ADN por PCR anidada con iniciadores externos Np 21-4 e internos Np 9-10 en leucocitos de vacas del sistema de producción de leche en pequeña escala en Amecameca, Estado de México. Se estudió un hato con 34 hembras adultas realizando el seguimiento con muestreos sanguíneos durante cinco meses; también, se analizaron dos muestras de encéfalo de fetos abortados y se constató la secuencia de los amplicones en el Genbank. La concordancia entre técnicas fue comparada mediante la prueba Kappa. La seroprevalencia por ELISA fue de 85.3 %; y se detectó ADN del parásito en 89.4 % de las vacas. Una muestra de encéfalo fue positiva. La similitud de los amplicones osciló entre 91 y 96 %, el índice Kappa fue de 0.41. El empleo de leucocitos aumenta la probabilidad de ampli car ADN de N. caninum.

Published: October 2017

Se establecieron nueve sitios en diferentes comunidades del centro y sur del municipio de Calakmul, con la nalidad de describir la estructura y composición de especies arbóreas en la selva inundable (SI), conocida como bajos inundables o vegetación de Ak alches. Se censaron 2 212 individuos, 112 especies y 36 familias. El área basal varío entre 5.6 y 18.2 m2 ha−1, las especies con mayor valor de importancia fueron Coccoloba reflexiflora, Gymnanthes lucida, Haematoxylum campechianum, Manilkara zapota, Matayba oppositifolia, Metopium brownei y Sebastiania adenophora. La mayor similitud se presentó entre los sitios al centro del municipio, la diversidad en los sitios Carlos A. Madrazo, El Carmen II, Josefa Ortiz de Domínguez, Centauro del Norte, Ley de Fomento Agropecuario, Narciso Mendoza, Nuevo Conhuás, Unidad y Trabajo, no mostraron diferencias signi cativas (p < 0.05). La estructura horizontal de la vegetación fue similar en todos los sitios, agrupando la mayor cantidad de individuos, más del 50 %, en las categorías diamétricas de 2.5 a 8.4 cm. La estructura vertical presentó un comportamiento semejante entre sitios, concentrándose el 50 % de los individuos entre los 5 y 10 m. La SI alberga especies que son prioritarias para la conservación, tanto en programas nacionales como internacionales, y dada su importancia por aporte de agua y alimento a la fauna de la región se considera que son áreas en las cuales se deben implementar programas de conservación.

Los problemas de contaminación por el uso de los derivados del petróleo originan la búsqueda de nuevas fuentes de energía, como el bioetanol. El objetivo del estudio fue estimar las elasticidades de la demanda Marshallianas y Hicksianas mediante la aplicación del sistema de demanda casi ideal con ecuaciones aparentemente no relacionadas y el uso del índice de precio Stone. Los resultados muestran que los cinco productos tienen una demanda inelástica, sin embargo, el maíz es el único que mostró ser un bien superior, por lo que se requiere aumentar y redistribuir la producción de maíz para evitar dañar la capacidad de adquisición de la población.

El objetivo fue determinar el rendimiento de grano de cuatro híbridos trilineales de maíz (Zea mays L.) androestériles y fértiles, y la proporción de la mezcla de semilla androestéil (AE) y fértil (F), en las densidades de población de 50 000 y 70 000 plantas ha−1. Se establecieron cuatro experimentos en el ciclo primavera-verano 2012, dos en Cuautitlán Izcalli, México y dos en Santa Lucía, Texcoco, Estado de México, bajo punta de riego. El análisis de varianza para rendimiento detectó signi cancia (p ≤ 0.01) entre ambientes, genotipos, densidades de población e interacción Genotipo x Ambiente, y entre proporción de semilla androestéril y fértil (p ≤ 0.05). Los mayores rendimien- tos los tuvo el híbrido H-53 con 7 438 kg ha−1, y el ambiente de Cuautitlán Izcalli en la segunda fecha de siembra con 6 877 kg ha−1. La densidad de 70 000 plantas ha−1 tuvo un rendimiento de 6 534 kg ha−1, mientras en 50 000 plantas ha−1 fue de 6 038 kg ha−1. El tratamiento con 100 % de semilla AE (6 540 kg ha−1) fue superior a la versión fértil (6 113 kg ha−1); las proporciones de semilla de 33 % AE y 67 % F (6 290 kg ha−1), y 66 % AE y 34 % F con rendimiento 6 200 kg ha−1, fueron iguales estadísticamente; en forma práctica conviene la combinación de 66 % AE y 34 % F en la producción de semilla.
