Abstract This study evaluated the effect of photodynamic therapy (PDT) on infected root canals. Twenty-one human teeth were selected, and 18 were infected by E. faecalis for 60 days. The antimicrobial strategies tested were: G1. Root canal preparation (RCP) using Niquel-Titanium (NiTi) rotary instruments, 2.5% NaOCl, and final irrigation with 17% EDTA, followed by PDT with methylene blue photosensitizer and laser diode low power; G2. RCP using stainless steel files and the same irrigation and PDT protocols as G1; G3. Same RCP protocol as G1 without PDT; G4. Only irrigation with 2.5% NaOCl; G5. Same PDT protocol as G1 without RCP; G6. Negative control; G7. Positive control. Samples for microbiological tests were collected initially (S1), after RCP (S2), and after PDT (S3). Subsequently, the roots were sectioned and prepared for Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) analysis. Bacterial growth was analyzed according to the turbidity of the culture medium, followed by spectrophotometric optical density (nm). The effect of PDT on the dentinal structure was evaluated at magnifications 1,600X and 5,000X and described qualitatively. The Wilcoxon test was used for the comparisons from the same specimens, and the Mann-Whitney test was used to compare groups ((=5%). Bacteria were found in all experimental groups’ microbiological samples (S1, S2 and S3). The optical density of culture media was lower in S2 than in S1 of G1, 2, 3, and 4 (p> 0.05). After PDT (S3) in G1 and 2, there was an additional reduction in optical density of the culture medium, respectively (p>0.05). In Group 5, the analysis of culture media at S2 revealed an increase in optical density compared to S1(p>0.05). In SEM images of G1, 2, and 5, dentin with melting and recrystallization areas were evidenced. After preparation of the root canal with the rotary system or manually associated with 2.5% NaOCl, PDT was not able to completely eliminate E. faecalis present in the root canal.

ABSTRACT: The elimination of poverty and hunger in all its forms and dimensions is one of the key objective of global sustainable development (GSD). This paper analyzed the characteristics of literature release, research progress and frontier trends in the field of anti-poverty in the past ten years by means of bibliometrics, and information visualization. Using CiteSpace to analyze the literature on anti-poverty in the core journals of Web of Science and Scopus (W&S), and China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI). The results showed that:(1) The heat of anti-poverty research is on the rise in both W&S and CNKI, the growth rate of Chinese literature published is significantly higher than that of English literature after 2015, but the international influence is not enough. (2) Researchers and institutions in W&S are more independent than in CNKI. The Chinese research team is more stable and larger, but it needs to be further strengthened in cross-institutional and interdisciplinary research. (3)The research content in W&S mainly focuses on influencing factors and poverty reduction mechanisms, ecosystem services, maternal health and sustainable development. According to the China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), China paid more attention to concrete ways to reduce poverty, and after completing the fight against absolute poverty by 2020, China will pay more attention to reducing relative poverty and solve multi-dimensional poverty problems by improving the security of medical care, education and housing conditions.

ABSTRACT: Fowl aviadenovirus (FAdV) is an important pathogen in the global poultry industry and the etiology of inclusion body hepatitis-hydropericardium syndrome (HHS) in chickens. Since the 1990s, several outbreaks of HHS have occurred in poultry producing areas, including South America. The coinfection of FAdV and chicken anemia virus (CAV) may markedly impact the incidence of HHS. This study describes an outbreak of HHS in coinfection with CAV in industrial broiler breeders and characterizes the FAdV isolate. The three-week-old male broiler breeders had pale bone marrow, enlarged and yellowish liver, splenomegaly, and atrophied thymus; one chicken was also found with hydropericardium. Virus isolation was performed in SPF chicken embryos of liver and thymus. Tissues of the naturally infected chickens and the inoculated embryos were evaluated by PCR and histopathology. All affected chickens and inoculated embryos were positive for FAdV and CAV. The inoculated embryos had enlarged, greenish and hemorrhagic livers, and 30% died within 7 days of inoculation. Phylogenetic analysis of the FAdV isolate hexon gene partial sequence enabled grouping with E species. The E species has recently become a relevant species in several countries. The association of FAdV with CAV in breeders is of further concern due to both being capable of vertical transmission. Within the last decade, a worldwide upsurge of HHS in broiler breeders owing to failed biosecurity has occurred. In this episode, the failure on biosecurity may have enabled challenge with both FAdV and CAV, with pathological synergism. The CAV-impaired adaptive immunity may have benefited the FAdV infection.

Published: June 2022

ABSTRACT: Agriculture trade remains the economic fulcrum of most African countries as the continent continues to host the largest percent of arable land. This research analyzed the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) and China’s agricultural products trade determinants based on 19 years (2000-2018) panel dataset of West African countries aggregate agricultural products exports ($) and macroeconomic variables; GDP, population, arable land, language investment, and trade association(WTO)) as predictors. The PPML estimation method was employed due to its prediction accuracy, the size of the data, and potential hetroskadacity issues. With a 78.5% prediction power, the model explained the variation in ECOWAS-China agricultural trade (Exports). GDPj, lnPOPj, lnPOPi, and lnARLj, LndLj, ConfInsj, and WTOij were positive and statistically significant determinants of trade as hypothesized by existing trade literature. In addition, the China’s population (lnPOPj) had a value of 0.5877, which is significant at the 5% level, indicating that a 1% increase in the Chinese population significantly increases trade in agricultural products with ECOWAS states. The coefficient of distance (Dij) is -4.4573 statistically significant at the 1% level, indicating that distance between partners impedes trade flow. There are unidentified barriers that delay the progress of trade in agricultural products between ECOWAS and China. Based on the above findings, Investments in ECOWAS arable lands demand urgent attention if significant progress in exports is expected, additionally, governments of both partners should assist Agricultural research and development to identify and rectify stifling trade barriers. Furthermore, as trade between ECOWAS and China has not yet reached its full peak, studies on export determinants of individual Agro-commodities and potentials are needed to enrich literature.

Authors: Betancur Giovanni Restrepo , Rodas Katherine Bedoya , Suarez Alexandra Usuga
Published: June 2022

ABSTRACT: High consanguinity among equines has negative effects on semen quality, thus resulting in low motility and high levels of abnormality in the spermatozoa. However, such a relationship has not been studied in Colombian Creole horses, which have been subjected to particular selection practices focusing mainly on their gait. This research assessed the relationship of semen quality to inbreeding and gait of Colombian Creole horses. Semen was collected from 50 horses using the artificial vagina method. Sperm motility and kinematics were assessed with a computerized analysis system (SCA®). Sperm vitality (SV) and abnormal morphology (AM) were assessed via the eosin-nigrosin staining test. Functional membrane integrity (FMI) was assessed via the hypo-osmotic swelling test (HOST). Genealogies and consanguinity analysis was conducted using the Breeders Assistant for Horses program. An average of 3.6 ± 0.4 % was reported for the inbreeding coefficient (Ft). A decrease in sperm motility and kinematics was reported, which was associated with an increase in consanguinity (P < 0.05). Furthermore, differences in consanguinity were found based on gait. Similarly, a relationship between horse gait and semen quality (P < 0.05) was found. Authors concluded that semen quality of Colombian Creole horses has been affected by inbreeding and its relationship with genetic selection based on gait.

Published: June 2022

ABSTRACT: The heating rate used during semen thawing plays an important role in reducing structural and functional damage to spermatozoa. In this study, we evaluated the influence of thawing temperature on semen quality, reactive oxygen species (ROS) production, and mitochondrial activity of cryopreserved bovine semen. A total of 195 straws of 0.5 mL from five Holstein Friesian bulls were used (39 straws per bull). Samples underwent 8 to 22 years of storage; they were processed under a standard protocol with tris-egg yolk and stored in liquid nitrogen. Samples were thawed for 30 seconds in a water bath at T1: 36 °C, T2: 38 °C or T3: 40 °C. Sperm motility and kinematics, morphology, structural membrane integrity (SMI), functional membrane integrity (FMI), acrosome integrity (AI), ROS, and mitochondrial membrane potential (ΔΨM) of post-thawing bovine sperm were evaluated. Generalized linear models were fitted to the data. Each model included the effects of bull, storage time, and treatment. The Shapiro-Wilk test was used to assess data normality, and means were compared using the Tukey test. T2 and T3 showed better results for sperm motility and kinematic parameters, SMI (%) (T1 41.9 ± 2.3; T2 45.7 ± 1.9; T3 47.4 ± 2.8), ROS (RFU/min) (T1 0.026 ± 0.007; T2 0.032 ± 0.001; T3 0.031 ± 0.001) and high-ΔΨM (RFU x 103) (67.1± 0,4; 71.3 ± 0.4; 74.2 ± 0.4) (P < 0.05). However, T1 had higher FMI (39.3 ± 2.3) than T2 (34.0 ± 1.9) (P < 0.05), though not significantly (P > 0.05) different from T3 (38.4 ± 2.2). Thawing temperatures of 38 °C and 40 °C increases motility, kinetics, membrane integrity, mitochondrial activity and ROS of cryopreserved bovine semen, compared with more conventional thawing at 36 °C.
A VARIAÇÃO NAS TERMINOLOGIAS PELA PERSPECTIVA COGNITIVA: O CASO DA FAUNA E DA FLORA
Authors: Martins Sabrina de Cássia
Published: June 2022

RESUMO A virada do século traz à tona o consenso de que as terminologias refletem a dinamicidade e a complexidade que envolve a estruturação do sistema conceitual, além das particularidades de conceituação associadas à língua, à cultura e ao grupo sócioprofissional. A concepção de que as unidades lexicais especializadas são signos linguísticos e, portanto, componentes do léxico de uma língua natural implica no reconhecimento de que tais itens estão sujeitos aos mesmos fatores que atuam na formação das palavras que permeiam os discursos cotidianos (CABRÉ, 1999). O presente estudo aborda a terminologia da fauna (Zoologia - Vertebrados) e da flora (Botânica - Angiospermas), cujos dados derivam de pesquisas anteriores (MARTINS, 2013; 2017) que examinaram a denominação em língua portuguesa de aproximadamente duzentas espécies. Com efeito, em tal área do conhecimento, paralelamente aos nomes científicos coexistem as formas semicientíficas, adaptadas à língua vernácula, e as formas vernáculas, isto é, nomes comuns variáveis de acordo com as línguas e que representam a riqueza vocabular de cada cultura (GARRIDO, 2000). No que tange às formas vernáculas, essas são aqui categorizadas como variantes denominativas (FREIXA, 2002; 2005), segundo a Teoria Comunicativa da Terminologia (CABRÉ, 1999), para a qual o fenômeno da variação é um dos princípios inerentes à análise dos termos. Em suma, a formação da terminologia em apreço revela os diferentes pontos de vista aos quais os animais e as plantas podem ser submetidos, decorrendo portanto de fatores internos ao ser humano, isto é, psicocognitivos, e contribuindo para o conceito de variantes denominativas com consequências cognitivas (CABRÉ, 2003;2008; FERNÁNDEZ-SILVA, 2010; 2013).
ABORDAGEM TERMINOLÓGICO-DISCURSIVA: PELO RESGATE DA TERMINOLOGIA E DA TERMINOGRAFIA NO ENSINO E NA APRENDIZAGEM DE LÍNGUAS PARA FINS ESPECÍFICOS NO CONTEXTO BRASILEIRO
Authors: Nadin Odair Luiz
Published: June 2022

RESUMO O objetivo do presente texto é apresentar algumas reflexões sobre uma proposta de abordagem para o Ensino e a Aprendizagem de Línguas para Fins Específicos, a fim de resgatar o relevante papel da Terminologia e da Terminografia para o aprendiz dessa modalidade de ensino. A Terminologia tem como marco inicial os anos 30 do século XX, sobretudo a partir da tese de doutoramento do engenheiro austríaco Eugen Wüster. O Ensino de Línguas para Fins Específicos, por sua vez, surge três décadas depois juntamente da Abordagem Comunicativa e se firma na segunda metade do século XX no movimento denominado English for Specific Purpose. Nessa primeira fase, a relação entre as duas áreas era bastante explícita, pois essa modalidade de ensino centrava-se no registro léxico e gramatical próprios da área do aprendiz. Apresentamos breve revisão bibliográfica, a exemplo de Cabré (1999, 1993), Barros (2004), Gómez de Enterría (2009), Hutchison e Waters (1987); Aguirre Beltrán (2012), Ramos (2019), Dolz; Noverraz e Schneuwly (2004), SWALES, (2009), a proposta que ora apresentamos, denominada “Abordagem Terminológico-Discursiva (ATD)”, que possui caráter interdisciplinar, e parte da análise do perfil de dado aprendiz, com necessidades e usos da língua em contextos específicos, nos quais circulam gêneros textuais também específicos. Assim, trazemos alguns princípios da ATD alicerçados em conceitos como “uso das línguas em contextos especializados”; “gêneros textuais especializados” e “competência comunicativo-especializada”. Desse modo, esperamos contribuir para o reavivamento da Terminologia e da Terminografia como ciências que podem contribuir de forma produtiva ao Ensino e à Aprendizagem de Línguas para Fins Específicos (EALFE).
TERMINOLOGIE JURIDIQUE ET ENJEUX INTERCULTURELS EN COMMUNICATION SPÉCIALISÉE MULTILINGUE

RÉSUMÉ Dans cet article, nous nous proposons d’analyser plusieurs options de traduction de quelques termes à équivalence partielle sur la base d’un corpus réunissant les traductions de textes juridiques élaborées par des étudiants portugais en formation initiale et continue, de 2012 à 2021, mais aussi les fiches terminologiques rédigées par ces mêmes étudiants pour le glossaire de la classe. L’objectif de cette analyse est de mettre en évidence les stratégies adoptées face à certains problèmes de traduction au niveau terminologique préalablement identifiés et de répondre aux questions suivantes. Comment la charge culturelle de certains termes et leur problème d’équivalence en langue cible sont-ils gérés ? Quel positionnement le (futur) traducteur assume-t-il ? Ethnocentrisme avec la recherche d’équivalents fonctionnels, respect de la culture d’origine avec l’emploi d’équivalents formels ou de paraphrases ou encore aveu d’échec dissimulé avec le recours à la transcription ? Quelles solutions terminologiques sont privilégiées par le traducteur pour l’enrichissement des fiches terminologique du glossaire de la classe ? Enfin, suivant le(s) choix opéré(s), de quelle manière les effets juridiques du texte source sont-ils préservés dans le texte cible en tenant compte des cultures juridiques qui sont en jeu ?
A VARIAÇÃO DENOMINATIVA EM LIBRAS NO MARANHÃO: UMA ANÁLISE DE SINAIS-TERMO DA ELETROTÉCNICA USADOS NO IFMA/MONTE CASTELO E NO SENAI-MA

Published: June 2022

RESUMO O presente artigo consiste em um estudo sobre a variação terminológica na Língua Brasileira de Sinais - Libras, no contexto da área da eletrotécnica em São Luís-Maranhão. Mais precisamente, esta pesquisa teve como objetivo analisar os principais fatores de variação denominativa de sinais-termo usados nos cursos de eletrotécnica ofertados pelo Instituto Federal do Maranhão - IFMA/ Monte Castelo e pelo Serviço Nacional de Aprendizagem Industrial - SENAI/MA. Para alicerçar teórica e metodologicamente este trabalho, foram considerados os estudos desenvolvidos por Cabré (1995), Felten (2016), Krieger (2001), Prometi et al. (2015), Quadros (2019), entre outros. Os dados analisados foram retirados de dois glossários maranhenses de eletrotécnica produzidos para a comunidade surda: o glossário produzido pela equipe do SENAI-MA (2011) e o do autor (2019). Os resultados obtidos ratificam os princípios da Teoria Comunicativa da Terminologia - TCT, uma vez que o número expressivo de variantes denominativas catalogadas em Libras, na área da eletrotécnica, corrobora a afirmativa de que há variação no discurso especializado e que essa variação é causada por diferentes fatores: distintos contextos de interação, diversificados perfis sociais, entre outros. Pelo exposto, espera-se evidenciar a necessidade de ampliação dos estudos terminológicos relacionados à Libras, contribuir para a reflexão sobre a importância da normalização em contraposição à normatização na área da Terminologia e fomentar trabalhos que favoreçam a educação inclusiva de surdos/as também em áreas técnicas, como a da eletrotécnica.
Determination of the ursolic and oleanolic acids content with the antioxidant capacity in apple peel extract of various cultivars
Authors: Odun-Ayo F. , Chetty K. , Reddy L.
Published: June 2022

Abstract Apples are rich sources of ursolic acid (UA) and oleanolic acid (OA) which are the major and most prominent triterpenes in the peel of an apple. Pentacyclic triterpenes are ideal nutraceuticals due to their ability to reduce the risk of many life-threatening diseases such as cancer, cardiovascular and diabetes. This study was to determine the content of UA and OA in the apple peel extract from different cultivars grown in South Africa as well as the correlation of their content level with antioxidant capacity. Quantitative analysis of UA and OA in apple peels from three cultivars; red delicious (RD), royal gala (RG) and granny smith (GS) apples was carried out using HPLC and their antioxidant capacity was analyzed using the DPPH assay. The RD showed the highest content of UA and OA (248.02 ± 0.08 µg/ml and 110.00 ± 0.08 µg/ml respectively) in the apple peel extract and also displayed a significantly high level of antioxidant capacity (97.3 ± 0.40%; p < 0.0001) compared to the RG and GS cultivars. A strong positive correlation was noted between the UA, OA and antioxidant capacities of all the cultivars. Only the RD cultivar showed a significant correlation though; UA (r = 0.9570; p = 0.0027) and OA (r = 0.8503; p = 0.0319). This study demonstrated that the RD and RG apple peels possess the highest UA and OA content which invariably increases their antioxidant activities compared to GS apple. Thus, both apple cultivars would be useful and recommended for food consumption and nutraceuticals values to improve human health.

Published: June 2022

Abstract The serious blue butterfly, Chilades pandava -Horsfield, 1829- (Lepidoptera: Lycaenidae) is consider one of the main destructive insect pests for ornamental palms Cycas and Zamia. Biological and morphological measurements were carried out of C. pandava stages reared on Cycas revoluta (Cycadaceae) and Zamia encephalartoides (Zamiaceae). In description details, non-significant variations were recorded between the two gender of cycad blue butterfly in the obtained data, but the male adult was more densely blue or violet than female adult. By the aid of SEM, C. pandava all stages were distinct by long and thick hairs covered all the body. The morphometric characters namely, length, width and venation of wings, body length, forewing, hindwing could be as a guide for taxonomic discrimination. The data showed that the life cycle duration of C. pandava was ranged between 20.64 to 21.7 days. The developmental periods of different C. pandava stages are slightly higher on zamia than cycas palms. This investigation detected that a high survival rate was found on Cycas palms (86%) than the survived rate recording on Zamia palms (82%). In the present study, the described morphometric characters could be used as a guide for taxonomic discrimination of this pest. Consequently, this study added a valuable knowledge about C. pandava to have sound decisions for proposal of its management and conservation in Egypt.

ABSTRACT: Objective: To describe the methodological and operational aspects of the “Project for surveillance of cancer and its associated factors: population-based and hospital-based registry” (VIGICAN), in the state of Mato Grosso (MT), Brazil. Methods: VIGICAN was divided into two projects: a university extension one, which updated the data from the Population-based Cancer Registry (PBCR) of MT in the 2008-2016 period; and a research project, which collected primary data, through individual interviews and analysis of medical records of people with a diagnosis of cancer, aged 18 years or older, treated at reference hospitals for oncology. To analyze the factors associated with cancer, the following variables were collected: socioeconomic and demographic, social support, health status and behavior, and environmental exposure. Results: In the 2008-2016 period, approximately one hundred thousand cases of cancer (incident and prevalent) were reported in the PBCR Cuiabá and PBCR Interior. After validation procedures, 50 thousand incident cases were elected. The survey interviewed 1,012 patients, 38.2% living in the municipalities of Cuiabá and Várzea Grande, 60.4% in small cities of the state, and 1.4% in other states. Preliminary data showed that the majority were women (55.0%) and younger than 60 years of age (54.3%). Among the interviewees, 7.2% reported smoking tobacco, 15.5% consumed alcoholic beverages (15.5%), and 32.7% lived nearby crops. Conclusion: The development of these projects allowed the integration of education with health services and will enable the recognition of specificities and different exposure scenarios and factors associated with cancer in the Mato Grosso territory.

ABSTRACT: Objective: To analyze the trend of standardized cancer mortality rate in the state of Mato Grosso according to health regions, from 2000 to 2015. Methods: Ecological time series study with data on deaths by cancer from the Mortality Information System. The rates were standardized using direct method and calculated by year and health regions. The annual percentage changes (APC) and respective confidence interval (95%CI) were obtained through simple linear regression. Thematic maps were built to show the spatial distribution of rates. Results: There were 28,525 deaths by cancer registered in Mato Grosso, with the main types being lung, prostate, stomach, breast and liver cancer. The highest mortality rates were found in regions Médio Norte, Baixada Cuiabana and Sul Mato-Grossense. From 2000 to 2015, an upward trend was seen in the mortality rate by cancer in Mato Grosso (APC=0.81%; 95%CI 0.38–1.26), and in four health regions, Garças Araguaia (APC=2.27%; 95%CI 1.46–3.08), Sul Mato-Grossense (APC=1.12%; 95%CI 0.28–1.97), Teles Pires (APC=1.93%; 95%CI 0,11–3,74) and Vale dos Arinos (APC=2.61%; 95%CI 1.10–4.70), while the other regions remained stable. Conclusion: In the state of Mato Grosso and in the four health regions, cancer mortality rate showed a growing trend. The results point to the need to consider regional differences when thinking about actions for cancer prevention, control and assistance.

ABSTRACT: Objective: To analyze the incidence, mortality and survival of prostate cancer in Cuiabá and Várzea Grande, Brazil from 2000 to 2016. Methods: Data from the Population-based Cancer Registry and the Mortality Information System were used. Mortality and incidence trends were analyzed using joinpoint regression models by age group. Survival analyses were performed using the Kaplan-Meier method, and hazard ratio was estimated by age group. Results: From 2000 to 2016, 3,671 new cases and 892 deaths for prostate cancer were recorded. The average incidence and mortality rates were 87.96 and 20.22 per 100,000, respectively. Decreasing incidence trend was noted for all age groups from 2006 to 2016 (APC=-3.2%) and for men with 80+ years of age from 2000 to 2016 (APC=-3.0%), and increasing mortality trend for men 60-69 years of age from 2000 to 2009 (APC=3.2%). The specific five-year survival rate for prostate cancer was 79.6% (95%CI 77.2–81.9), and the rate decreased with advanced age (HR=2.43, 95%CI 1.5–3.9, for those 70 to 79 years old and HR=7.20, 95%CI 4.5–11.5, for those 80 or older). Conclusion: The incidence rate of prostate cancer showed a decreasing trend from 2006 for all age groups; the mortality rate was stable in that period, and worse prognosis was observed in men 70 years or older.

Published: June 2022

ABSTRACT: Objective: To estimate specific five-year survival in women diagnosed with cervical cancer living in the municipalities of Cuiabá and Várzea Grande, in the state of Mato Grosso, Brazil. Methods: This is a retrospective cohort study with information from the Cuiabá Population-based Cancer Registry and the Mortality Information System. To estimate the probability of specific survival in five years, the Kaplan-Meier estimator and the log-rank test were used aiming at verifying if there were statistical differences in the lifetime per groups. To verify the proportionality of the failure rates, the Schoenfeld residual test was used according to the statistical significance level of 0.05. Results: Specific five-year survival and median time were 90.0% and 50.3 months, respectively, for cervical cancer. When analyzing by age, the highest specific survival was among women aged 20 to 49 years (91.7%) and median time was 53.3 months. For the histological type, the highest specific survival was among women with adenocarcinoma (92.3%) and the mean survival time was 53.5 months. Conclusion: This study showed that specific survival after five years of diagnosis remained about 90% in patients with cervical cancer. Patients aged 20 to 49 years had higher specific survival and there was statistically significant difference only between age groups.

Published: June 2022

ABSTRACT: Objective: To analyze factors associated with functional disability in older adults with cancer treated at reference outpatient clinics in the state of Mato Grosso, Brazil. Methods: This is a cross-sectional study of 463 older adults aged 60 years or older. The outcome variable was functional disability, evaluated by Lawton and Brody's Instrumental Activities of Daily Living (IADL) scale. The independent variables were sociodemographic characteristics, lifestyle, social support, and health aspects. We performed bivariate and multivariate analyses and calculated prevalence ratios (PR) using Poisson regression with robust variance. Results: The prevalence of IADL functional disability was 55.3%. The variables associated with this disability in the multivariate analysis were: not working (PR=1.36; 95% confidence interval — 95%CI 1.03–1.78); low (PR=1.49; 95%CI 1.10–2.03) and moderate (PR=1.30; 95%CI 1.04–1.64) perceived affectionate support; depressive symptoms (PR=1.31; 95%CI 1.10–1.56); malnutrition (PR=1.28; 95%CI 1.03–1.59); having two or more comorbidities (PR=1.30; 95%CI 1.03–1.64), and having a companion to health services (PR=1.39; 95%CI 1.05–1.83). Conclusion: In addition to physical health aspects, comorbidities, and malnutrition, functional disability was associated with emotional, social support, and work issues, reinforcing the importance of comprehensive care and actions to maintain and recover functional capacity, promoting a better quality of life, the independence of older adults with cancer, and a reduced risk of adverse biopsychosocial outcomes.

Resumo Este artigo apresenta um dispositivo didático para trabalhar o gênero exposé oral em francês, dando destaque para o modelo didático, a aplicação em um curso de extensão e a análise preliminar das produções dos alunos. Baseamo-nos no Interacionismo Sociodiscursivo (BRONCKART, 1999), principalmente nos conceitos de capacidades de linguagem (DOLZ; PASQUIER; BRONCKART, 1993), modelo didático (DE PIETRO; SCHNEUWLY, 2003) e sequência didática (DOLZ; NOVERRAZ; SCHNEUWLY, 2004). O modelo didático foi proposto a partir de vários exemplares do gênero e permitiu a elaboração de uma sequência didática. Comparadas as produções iniciais e finais dos alunos, constatou-se que houve desenvolvimento das capacidades de ação, discursivas e multissemióticas.

Published: June 2022

Resumo Este trabalho tem o objetivo de suscitar discussões sobre os conceitos de autor/autoria, posicionamento e estilo em teorias linguístico-discursivas, relativamente àqueles que subjazem às competências avaliativas da Prova de Redação do Exame Nacional do Ensino Médio (Enem, Brasil). Para tanto, foi feito o levantamento do estado da arte sobre os termos supracitados e uma articulação teórica com o Interacionismo Sociodiscursivo (ISD). Os resultados levam ao entendimento de que uma articulação teórica da noção de autoria de textos escolares defendida na Análise do Discurso, que vê o sujeito como aquele que age através da linguagem, pode ser reportada à noção de autor e posicionamento enunciativo assumida pelo ISD. O estudo e a didatização dessas noções são fulcrais para o reconhecimento do aluno como sujeito-autor, responsável por seu agir na/pela linguagem.

RESUMO Este artigo discute a autenticidade do princípio de auto-organização e dos planos individuais de trabalho na perspectiva da pedagogia Freinet. Em razão da inatividade dos alunos, quando inseridos em contextos tradicionais de ensino, o plano individual de trabalho pode mudar a relação deles com o conhecimento e com o desejo de aprender e de investigar o mundo. Na perspectiva da pesquisa bibliográfica e documental, apresentamos alguns aportes teóricos e práticos tratados por Freinet acerca do desenvolvimento da auto-organização da criança e problematizamos três modelos de planos individuais de trabalho – um deles utilizado pelo próprio Freinet e outros dois atuais, um aberto e um fechado, construídos por professores franceses. Nossas conclusões consideram o plano individual de trabalho uma ferramenta que proporciona a auto-organização dos alunos e de elevada importância na pedagogia Freinet para a construção de respostas efetivas que visem à educação libertadora.
MASCULINITIES AND FEMININITIES IN THE SKY: THE GENDER PROJECT(S) OF FLIGHT ATTENDANTS’ CAREERS
Authors: Fraga Aline Mendonça , Rocha-de-Oliveira Sidinei
Published: June 2022

ABSTRACT This article resumes the interactionist bases of career studies to analyze the construction of gender project(s) regarding masculinities and femininities in the careers of flight attendants. We used a qualitative-oriented research methodology divided into five main stages: documentary and bibliographical research; 16 months of general immersion with field observation and journaling; specific immersion with field observation (participating in a flight attendants’ training course); collection of 23 professionals’ biographies; and construction and analysis of thematic narratives. The information was analyzed based on the perspective of collective narratives in three relational moments: training, joining an airline, and work routine. The discussions point to the necessity of constructing career projects as gender projects and the potential for personal metamorphosis by emphasizing and embodying masculinities and femininities, as well as trajectories negotiations in the field of possibilities - temporal, dynamic, and contextual dimensions. The research findings broaden the debate on gendered careers and bring an original methodological and theoretical contribution to collective careers.

ABSTRACT Vitamin A deficiency is common in developing countries. Sweet potato can be an ally in reversing this situation since it has a low acquisition cost and high market availability. In addition, some genotypes have orange-flesh roots, rich in beta-carotene, which is the precursor of vitamin A. Thus, the objective of this research was to select orange-fleshed sweet potato genotypes using two selection indices (Smith and Hazel and Mulamba & Mock). For this purpose, seven half-sibling families with orange flesh roots (141 experimental genotypes and the commercial cultivar Beauregard) were evaluated, assessing yield-related traits, external appearance of roots, pulp color intensity, and susceptibility to Euscepes postfasciatus. The genotypes UZBD-C-14, UZBD-U1-25, UZBD-F-15, UZBD-C-30, UZBD-K-32, UZBD-U1-10, UZBD-L2-14, and UZBD-L5-67 were the most promising, showing greater balance for the evaluated characters. Furthermore, these genotypes are suitable for new studies to confirm their productive performance and root quality and evaluate the biochemical parameters that prove the inheritance of the character regulating biofortification mediated by carotenes.

Abstract The objective of this work was to evaluate the productive performance and physicochemical characteristics of the Isabel Precoce, BRS Carmem, BRS Cora, and IAC 138-22 Máximo grape (Vitis labrusca) cultivars for juice grafted onto the 'IAC 572 Jales' and 'IAC 766 Campinas' rootstocks. A randomized complete block design, in a 4×2 factorial arrangement, was used. Productive performance was evaluated through: production per plant; yield; number of clusters per vine; and physical characteristics of clusters, berries, and rachis. The physicochemical characteristics of must composition were also determined through the content of soluble solids, reducing sugars, titratable acidity, maturity index, and pH. Since there was no significant interaction between cultivars and rootstocks for most of the evaluated characteristics, each factor was analyzed separately. The 'IAC 766 Campinas' rootstock provided a higher yield and more suitable physicochemical characteristics for the four cultivars. However, regardless of the rootstock used, cultivars BRS Carmem, IAC 138-22 Máximo, and Isabel Precoce were more productive than BRS Cora.

Abstract The objective of this work was to decompose the variations of the genotype × environment interaction through fixed multivariate models, as well as to understand the genetic variations through mixed models, for the estimation and prediction of the genetic value of soybean (Glycine max) genotypes in the state of Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil. Tests were carried out during the 2016/2017, 2017/2018, and 2018/2019 crop seasons in different municipalities in six regions of the state, using the additive main effects and multiplicative interaction (AMMI) and genotype main effects + genotype-by-environment interaction (GGE) models. The genotypes were also evaluated using an index that allows weighting between mean performance and stability (WAASBY) and by the restricted maximum likelihood (REML) and the best linear unbiased prediction (BLUP) models. The used experimental design was randomized complete blocks (18 environments x 12 genotypes), with three replicates. The best performing genotypes in favorable environments are: 'BMX Valente RR', 'BMX Alvo RR', 'NS 5959 IPRO', 'DM 5958RSF IPRO', and 'BMX Ativa RR'. The favorable environments are the 2017/2018 season in the municipality of Bagé and the 2016/2017 season in the municipalities of São Luiz Gonzaga and Cachoeira do Sul, where higher grain yields were obtained. The genotypes that show excellent performance in unfavorable environments are cultivars BMX Ativa RR, DM 5958RSF IPRO, NS 5959 IPRO, and TMG 7262 RR. The 2016/2017 season is considered unfavorable in the municipalities of São Luiz Gonzaga and Cachoeira do Sul. The AMMI, GGE, and WAASBY or BLUP models for genotype selection must be used simultaneously.

Published: June 2022

With the potential for a decline in fly ash (FA) production over time, due to the phasing down of coal fired power plants, alternative supplementary cementitious materials need to be identified. The efficiency of pulverised glass powder (PGP) was studied for its reactivity and its capacity for inhibiting alkali-silica reaction (ASR) that results from utilisation of recycled glass as a fine aggregate (sand) replacement. Characterisations of pastes containing PGP reveal that PGP may possess latent hydraulic properties, resulting in a more than 75% strength activity index, together with better strength gain than FA-blended pastes. PGP also offered increased heat of hydration compared to FA, from a combination of the dilution effect, filler effect and early-age reactions of PGP. A comparable efficiency of PGP and FA in ASR expansion mitigation was confirmed with mortar bar expansions of less than 0.10% at cement replacement levels of at least 10%. Both PGP and FA provided alkali dilution and reduced the mass transport in hydrated cement paste from the refinement of larger pores to below 60 nm. The FA mix consumed calcium hydroxide and, thus, performed marginally better than the PGP mix in mitigating ASR. This pozzolanic reactivity is not evident for PGP, whereas in the literature glass powders are often regarded as pozzolanic. Microscopic images confirm that PGP and FA significantly limit the occurrence of ASR gels without altering its composition. It was concluded that PGP is a comparable ASR inhibitor to FA, despite the underlying differences in their mechanisms. The result of this research support the utilisation of recycled glass both as an aggregate, and as an ASR-inhibiting SCM in cementitious systems.
