Introdução: Estudos recentes na área da Fonoaudiologia vêm considerando a velhice, para além de aspectos orgânicos, a partir da participação social e da autonomia da pessoa idosa. Nesse sentido, cabe ressaltar o papel da linguagem, concebida como atividade dialógica, na promoção do envelhecimento ativo, a qual depende da possibilidade de escutar e de ser escutado. Objetivo: Investigar a autopercepção de idosos a respeito de suas condições auditivas, de sua escuta e de suas estratégias de comunicação. Método: Tendo em vista a análise dialógica do discurso, foi realizada uma entrevista semiestruturada com sete idosos, com e sem perda auditiva, participantes de uma Oficina da Linguagem que ocorreu em uma Universidade localizada no Sul do Brasil, durante o ano de 2016. Resultados: Os enunciados produzidos pelos participantes evidenciam que os idosos fazem uso de estratégias para ouvir melhor, tais como aproximar-se do falante, olhar de frente e prestar atenção no outro. No que diz respeito à autopercepção da escuta, alguns idosos relacionam o fato de não ouvirem às experiências negativas na infância e aos seus anos na escola. Conclusão: A possibilidade ou dificuldade para escutar, na percepção dos participantes, distancia-se de explicações de caráter orgânico e indica a importância da valorização e do acolhimento à palavra singular do outro. Assim, essa percepção pode servir de referência a outros profissionais que trabalham com idosos, para que possam atuar, considerando cada idoso como único e suas produções discursivas como singulares. Essa mudança de olhar pode favorecer a autonomia, a qualidade de vida e a inserção social dessa parcela da população.

The most effective way to reduce the pollution of heavy metal waste is the adsorption process using an adsorbent. Sugarcane bagasse is one of materials that has high affinity to absorb heavy metals. The adsorption capacity of sugarcane bagasse can be increased by converting it into cellulose xanthate by reaction of cellulose with carbon disulfide (CS2). Synthesis of cellulose xanthate consists of three stages, i.e isolation, alkalization, and xanthation. In this study, the preparation of cellulose xhantate was conducted by adding carbon disulfide (CS2) about 180% (w/w). The temperature of xhantation reaction was varied  at 35°C, 40°C and 45°C. The effect of temperature reaction into degree of substitution (DS), the degree of polymerization (DP) and the metal adsorption capacity of cellulose xanthate for Zn2+ and Pb2+ were determined by quantitative and qualitative analyze. Morphological characteristics of cellulose xanthate was characterized by SEM and the functional groups contained in the cellulose xanthate was characterized by FTIR. The result showed that cellulose xanthate synthesized at temperature of 35°C have a highest value of DS, DP, and the adsorption capacity higher than two variations of  temperature (40°C and 45°C). The value of DS, DP, and the adsorption capacity is 0.389,  299.27, 48.353 mg/g for Zn2+ metal and 51.763 mg/g for the metals Pb2+, respectively

ANALYSIS OF THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN THE CONTENT OF HEAVY METALS IN SOIL AND DUST IN COPŞA MICĂ
Authors: MICLĂUȘU Camelia , POP Cristian , VÂLCAN Bogdan , RADU Anamaria , ROȘU Cristina
Published: July 2019

The town of Copşa Mică is polluted with heavy metals due to the metallurgical plant that operated there. Even if the activities of the plant were drastically reduced and depollution equipment was installed, there were high levels of heavy metals in the soil, with long remanence. The major human exposure pathways of heavy metals in the soil are by ingestion of soil particles, by ingestion of home-produced vegetables and by inhalation of dust. This research investigated the levels of heavy metals in the soil, in outdoor and indoor dust, and the relationship between them. The statistical analysis through simple linear regression and correlation showed a statistically significant relationship between the level of heavy metals in the soil (independent variable) and the level of heavy metals in outdoor dust (dependent variable). For Pb and Zn, the linear regression model showed that in areas where high levels of heavy metals are recorded in the soil, high levels of heavy metals are expected in the outdoor dust. Distribution maps of heavy metals in soil and dust also highlight this relationship.

Published: July 2019

Landslides represent one of the most important hazardous geomorphological phenomena in the Târnavelor Plateau. Geographically this unit is positioned on the southern part of the Transylvanian Depression. For the landslides distribution analysis, we used five criteria: geology, slope, altitude, exposition and the local administrative units. This type of studies is a must, on one hand to find out how the current landslides are distributed, and on the other hand to identify the areas which are prone to this type of hazardous geomorphological phenomena. By investigating the study area’s ortophotoplans and topographic maps, 5797 landslides were vectorized to create a landslide inventory map. The study shows that lithologic conditions (the presence of friable rocks such as marls, clays, sand) and the land use (mostly agricultural lands) are the most defining factors for landslide to develop, it is believed that in the future landslides will appear on similar slope, orientation and geological conditions etc. In this situation, knowing the susceptible areas to landslides is beneficial for the territorial planning actions and also to avoid the building and expanding other civil engineering constructions on lands which are prone to landslides.

Published: July 2019

In this paper we analyse the optimization of lidar systems in order to investigate Clear Air Turbulence (CAT), which is a dangerous weather phenomenon affecting especially the commercial aircrafts. It is assumed that aircrafts can cause air turbulence that can be detected by lidar, since pressure gradients could cause slight variations of the molecular depolarization values. This study will assess the capability of the lidar systems to highlight air turbulence from depolarization profiles. In order to do this, lidar measurements were performed at two sites in Romania: one in Magurele, near Bucharest and one in Cluj-Napoca. The measurements were accompanied by continuous flight path monitoring to mark the incidence events above the measuring locations.

Published: July 2019

Aims

Although the benefits of percutaneous coronary interventions (PCIs) in patients with stable chronic ischemic heart disease (SIHD) are controversial, a large number of PCIs are currently performed in SIHD patients, frequently after coronary angiography (ad-hoc procedures), without the use of fractional flow reserve (FFR) to identify patients most likely to benefit from PCI.

Methods

Assessment of regional variations in PCI for SIHD performed in Italy in 2017 and correlation of the regional number of PCI per million inhabitants with the use of FFR were performed using the data reported in the registry of the Italian Society of Interventional Cardiology (SICI-GISE) registry for the year 2017.

Results

PCI for SIHD accounted for 44.5% of all PCI performed in Italy with large variations among the Italian regions. There was a significant and inverse relationship between the use of FFR and the PCI number per million inhabitants performed for SIHD in the various Italian regions (P = 0.01). In the Veneto region, where local authorities mandated Heart Team reports to select the most appropriate treatment choice in multivessel disease patients, the rate of ad-hoc procedures was significantly lower than the national average.

Conclusion

PCI for SIHD patients represent almost half of all procedures currently performed in Italy with regional variations inversely related to physiologic guidance use. The mandatory assessment by the Heart Team to select the most appropriate treatment choice in multivessel disease patients is associated with a significantly lower number of ad-hoc procedures.

Authors: Vézina-Audette Raphaël , Steagall Paulo V. M. , Gianotti Giacomo
Published: July 2019

OBJECTIVE

To determine the prevalence of and covariates associated with the oculocardiac reflex (OCR) occurring in dogs during enucleations.

SAMPLE

145 dogs that underwent enucleation at 2 veterinary teaching hospitals between January 2010 and June 2015.

PROCEDURES

Information was collected from the medical records of included dogs regarding age and body weight at hospital admission, breed (for classification of brachycephalic status), and whether they had received anticholinergic drugs or a retrobulbar nerve block (RNB) prior to enucleation. An OCR was considered to have occurred if there was a sudden decrease of ≥ 30% in heart rate from the baseline value (mean heart rate prior to the sudden decrease) during surgery in the absence of intraoperative administration of opioids or α2-adrenoceptor agonists. Associations were explored between the collected data and the prevalence of OCR by means of binomial logistic regression.

RESULTS

4.8% (7/145) of dogs had an OCR noted during enucleation. Dogs that received a preoperative RNB (n = 82) had significantly lower odds of an OCR being observed than dogs that received no preoperative RNB (OR, 0.12). No association with OCR was identified for age or brachycephalic conformation or for preoperative administration of anticholinergic drugs.

CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE

These findings suggested that preoperative administration of an RNB, but not preoperative administration of anticholinergic drugs, was associated with a lower prevalence of OCR in dogs during enucleations.
Efficacy of intravenous administration of apomorphine for removal of gastric foreign material in dogs: 495 cases (2010–2015)
Authors: Kirchofer Kevin S. , Block Gary , Johnson Justine A.
Published: July 2019

OBJECTIVE

To evaluate the efficacy of IV administration of apomorphine for removal of gastric foreign bodies in dogs.

ANIMALS

495 dogs with gastric foreign bodies.

PROCEDURES

Records of a veterinary hospital were searched to identify dogs that received an injectable formulation of apomorphine between January 1, 2010, and July 30, 2015. Dogs with a gastric foreign body that received an IV injection of apomorphine were included in the study. Information extracted from the record of each dog included signalment, type of foreign material ingested, duration between foreign material ingestion and emesis, dose and number of doses of apomorphine administered, and whether emesis occurred and did or did not result in successful removal of the foreign body. Descriptive data were compared between dogs with and without successful foreign body removal.

RESULTS

Emesis with successful foreign body removal was achieved in 363 and 11 dogs after administration of 1 and 2 doses of apomorphine, respectively. Successful removal was more likely for young dogs and dogs that had ingested fabric, leather, or bathroom waste. Successful removal was less likely as the duration between foreign body ingestion and emesis increased and for dogs that received opioids, sedatives, or antiemetics before apomorphine administration. Minor adverse effects were recorded for only 4 dogs.

CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVLANCE

IV administration of apomorphine was a viable alternative for induction of emesis and removal of gastric foreign bodies in dogs. Dogs should be examined as soon as possible after foreign body ingestion and should not receive any medications that might affect apomorphine efficacy.

Published: July 2019

Environmental water is an important source for Vibrio cholerae, which is autochthonous to the aquatic environment, monitoring this bacterium in water is important for control of cholera. Vibrio cholerae represents an enormous public health problem around the world, especially in developing countries. One hundred samples were collected and selected. The samples were filtered and transferred to slants containing 2ml of alkaline peptone water, then subcultured on selective medium Thiosulphate Citrate Bile Salt Sucrose agar. All presumptive isolates were confirmed by using a series of biochemical tests including Oxidase test, Simmon Citrate test, DNase test, Indole test, Klingler Iron Agar (KIA) test, MacConkey agar test and motility. Confirmed Vibrio cholera strains were then screening for slide agglutination test by using commercially antisera polyvalent and monovalent O1 and O139 for determining strain serotype. The DNA extracted from pure culture and Polymerase Chain Reaction assay was used for molecular detection of Vibrio cholerae, a specific primer which designed according to ctxA gene sequences. This primer was detection and amplifying 241 base pairs of the ctxA gene. The resistance to antibiotics by Vibrio cholerae was determining by using thirteen standardized disc diffusion including Amikacin, Ceftriaxone, Ceftazidime, Gentamycin, Tetracycline, Streptomycin, Tobramycin, Cephotaxime, Nalidixic Acid, Norfloxacin, Cephalothin, Rifampicin, Cefixime. From one hundred water samples were detected, fifty-six samples were motile and positive for biochemical tests. Fifteen isolates confirmed as Vibrio cholera by Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) assay with primers de­signed for ctxA and 241bp band was observed. These fifteen isolates showed agglutination with polyvalent and monovalent O1 antisera, and two strains represented Ogawa from other strains that showed Inaba. The fifteen isolates exhibited an identical response to each antibiotic examined. They showed sensitive to all antibiotics except Amikacin, Streptomycin, Cefixime, Norfloxacin, Cephalothin. the aim of this study was determined the accurate method for detection of Vibrio cholerae in environmental water. In the current study, we found that the molecular method using Polymerase Chain Reaction performance using the ctxA gene-specific primers for detection of Vibrio cholerae was faster and accurate and specific.
