Food capture and escape behavior of Leposternon microcephalum Wagler, 1824 (Squamata: Amphisbaenia)
Authors: Reiche H. , Hohl L. S. L. , Rocha-Barbosa O.
Published: December 2021

Abstract Amphisbaenians are fossorial reptiles that have a cylindrical and elongated body covered with scales arranged in rings, and are all apodal, except for the three species of the genus Bipes. The amphisbaenian diet consists of a variety of invertebrates and small vertebrates. As these animals live underground, many aspects of their natural history are difficult to study. Most feeding studies of amphisbaenians have focused on the composition of the diet and feeding ecology, and the data available on feeding behavior are based on precursory observations. The present study describes the food capture behavior of Leposternon microcephalum Wagler, 1824 in captivity. In this experiment we used non-live bait (moist cat food), which was placed near a burrow opening, on the surface of the substrate. Three animals were monitored visually and filmed using cellphone cameras deployed at fixed points, to capture images from the dorsal and lateral perspectives of the study subjects. Two principal types of behavior were observed: the capture of food and defense mechanisms. The strategies used to capture the food were similar to those observed in other fossorial species. Although the backward movement has already been observed and described, we were able to record this movement being used as an escape strategy. These findings enrich our knowledge on different aspects of the natural history of the amphisbaenians.

Abstract Bacteria were isolated from samples of Fresh Apple juices from shops of three different localities of Lahore. Analysis of samples from Liberty, Anarkali and Yateem khana Markets show different levels of contamination. There were pathogenic and non-pathogenic bacteria in all samples and were identified by the morphological and biochemical tests. Most of the plasmids of pathogenic bacteria were 4kb in their molecular size. Ribotyping of 16S ribosomal RNA gene sequencing was done to confirm Helicobacter pylori strain and Gluconobacter oxydans. The highest sensitivity of 210mm was shown by Enterobacter sp. against Aztheromysine disk (15µg) while Micrococcus sp. was highly resistant against all of the Antibiotics applied. The antibiotic resistance of pathogenic bacteria was also checked against Ricinus communis plant's extracts, all isolated bacterial pathogens were resistant but only, E.coli was inhibited at 300µl of the extracts. Presence of pathogenic bacteria in Apple juice samples was due to contamination of sewage water in drinking water while some of these pathogenic bacteria came from Apple's tree and other from store houses of fruits.

ABSTRACT Objective To investigate factors associated with skipping breakfast in preschoolers and test a dose-dependent relationship between the frequency of breakfast consumption and the prevalence of overweight/obesity. Methods This is a cross-sectional study, carried out with 463 children (24 to 59 months of age) who live in the urban location of Goiânia, Goiás, Brazil. Sociodemographic data, maternal and child nutritional status, lifestyle, and dietary practices were collected using a standardized questionnaire and Habitual Food Recall during a home-based interview. Skipping breakfast was defined as a frequency of consumption “less than seven days a week”. Based on body mass index by age, children were classified as overweight/obese if Z-score ≥2. Multiple logistic regression was used to assess the association between the variables surveyed and skipping breakfast. The dose-dependent relationship between breakfast frequency and overweight/obesity was determined by the trend test. Results The prevalence of skipping breakfast was 8.42% (95%IC: 6.1-11.3). There was an association between the habit of substituting dinner for a sandwich/snack (adjusted OR: 2.61, 95%IC: 1.25-5.46; p=0.010) and the mother’s overweight (adjusted OR: 2.63; 95%CI: 1.29-5.37; p=0.008) with the habit of skipping breakfast. The trend test shows that the prevalence of overweight/obesity decreases as the frequency of breakfast consumption increases (p=0.035). Additionally, when assessing the quality of breakfast, frequent consumption of foods considered unhealthy was observed. Conclusion There is a dose-response association between overweight/obesity and skipping breakfast. Children who substitute traditional dinner for a sandwich/snack and whose mothers are overweight are more likely to skip breakfast.

Published: December 2021

ABSTRACT Objective Between 2010 and 2017, it was registered one of the most intense droughts in the Brazilian Northeastern Semiarid region, when the rainfall was below the historical level for the region. This context was related to water scarcity for human consumption and productive activities in this territory, where the semiarid backlands of the state of Pernambuco are located. The objective of this study was to assess the condition of food security and its associated factors in areas affected by drought in the semiarid zone of Pernambuco, Brazil. Methods It was a cross-sectional study on a populational base. Data were collected by socioeconomic and demographic surveys, and the Brazilian Food Insecurity Scale, which were applied to 252 households, from September to October 2015. The data was analyzed by socioeconomic and demographic characterization of the households, and the identification of the food insecurity prevalence and its associated factors, by Poisson regression. Results The prevalence of food insecurity was high (74.6%). Among those, 9,1% were on starvation, which means severe insecurity. Food insecurity was statistically associated to sanitation, per capita income, and the number of household residents. Lack of money was the main self-reported cause to food insecurity. Conclusion The high prevalence of food insecurity being associated to indicators of great social vulnerability shows the role of social and economic inequities on the inadequate access to food amongst families in the semiarid zone on a nearly generalized low-income context. These findings corroborate to the evident need of expanding and reinforcing public policies, as well sustainable development models to prioritize and promote social inclusion of communities at greater vulnerabilities in the Brazilian semiarid area. Thus, the need of these economic and social public strategies is highlighted by the worsening of historical vulnerable conditions due to the cycles of droughts on this region.

ABSTRACT Objective To investigate the association of dietary total antioxidant capacity with anthropometric, functional, and biochemical parameters in chronic kidney disease patients on hemodialysis. Methods This is a cross-sectional study of hemodialysis patients in Western Bahia. A structured questionnaire, three 24-hour dietary recalls, anthropometric measurements and clinical and biochemical records were used for data collection. Dietary total antioxidant capacity was estimated using 24-hour dietary recalls data. A database of ferric reducing antioxidant power values for foods was used to evaluate the dietary total antioxidant capacity. Multiple linear regression was applied to assess the relationship between dietary total antioxidant capacity and anthropometric, functional, and biochemical parameters. Results A total of 97 patients were evaluated, of which 57.7% were men and 57.7% were aged between 36 and 59 years. After adjusting for gender, education level, and socioeconomic level, inverse associations were found between dietary total antioxidant capacity and body mass index (p=0.008). Handgrip strength (p=0.037) and serum albumin concentration (p=0.047) were positively associated with dietary total antioxidant capacity. Conclusion High dietary total antioxidant capacity is associated with low body mass index, high handgrip strength, and high serum albumin concentration in chronic kidney disease patients undergoing hemodialysis.

Published: December 2021

ABSTRACT Objective To identify interaction patterns on body size and health on Instagram and associated factors in nutrition students. Methods A total of 406 students (78% female) were included in this cross-sectional study. Instagram sociodemographic, academic and interaction data (Instagram time of use, exposure frequency to contents on body size and health, Instagram as a source of information and number of followers) were collected using a self-administered virtual questionnaire. A factor analysis by main component was used to derive the interaction patterns of Instagram as well as regression analyses to test the association of the patterns with the sociodemographic and academic factors. Results Three interaction patterns were observed on body size and health, named: “Fitness Pattern”; “Body Positivity Pattern” and “High Engagement Pattern”. Private Institutions’ Students who are on or have been on a diet and studying in the first semesters were associated with the “Fitness Pattern” (p<0.05). Female students, from public institutions, who changed their weight during the course and whose family’s head had higher education, were associated with the “Body Positivity Pattern” (p<0.05). Female students, younger and on a diet, were associated with the “High engagement Pattern” (p<0.05). Conclusion Gender, type of educational institution and diet practice of nutrition students are the factors that are most associated with different patterns of interaction on body size and health on Instagram.

Abstract Introduction The association between smoking and periodontal diseases has been described in clinical and epidemiological studies. Objective The aim of this study was to compare the LL-37 and human β-defensin-2 (hBD-2) levels in crevicular fluid of patients with generalized periodontitis in smokers (S) and nonsmokers (NS). Material and method A total of 35 patients with generalized periodontitis stages III and IV, 15 NS (11 female, 4 male) and 20 S (7 female and 13 male), were included in the study. The evaluated clinical parameters were bleeding on probing (BOP), probing depth (PD) and clinical attachment level (CAL). Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays were performed to quantify the LL-37 and hBD-2 levels in the gingival crevicular fluid of these patients. The results were analyzed statistically with the level of significance set at 5%. Result In relation to periodontal clinical parameters, no statistically significant difference was observed for BOP and PD between groups S and NS. There was a higher CAL in the S group than in the NS group (p = 0.0095). There was no statistically significant difference between the levels of LL-37 and hBD-2 when comparing groups S and NS (p>0.05). Conclusion It was concluded that smokers have a higher clinical attachment loss than nonsmokers, but that smoking did not influence the levels of LL-37 and hBD-2 in the gingival crevicular fluid in periodontitis.

Resumo O presente artigo se propõe a estudar o programa radiofônico “História da Literatura Brasileira”(HLB), produzido por Osvaldo Moles, e transmitido entre os anos de 1952-1954. Parte da chamadaera do rádio, o programa parece englobar com êxito os dois modelos que marcaram a históriada radiodifusão: a proposta civilizatória-educativa, através da discussão de um cânone literárionacional, e a direção comercial-mercadológica, expressa no sucesso de audiência e crítica quefoi o programa. Desta forma, uma realização como HLB evidencia a complexidade do universoradiofônico e sua constituição como ambiente de produção cultural multiforme e polissémico. Nestetrabalho, buscamos refletir sobre os sentidos e significados contidos na massificação das temáticaspresentes no Programa, que incidiam sobre aspectos como a identidade nacional, a cultura brasileirae os jogos de interesses e disputas por trás da (re)produção destes debates.

Published: December 2021

Resumo Este artigo busca extrair as contribuições dos conceitos de “Autonomia” de Paulo Freire e de “Autocomunicação de Massa” de Manuel Castells para ajudar na compreensão dos processos de fortalecimento do protagonismo estudantil em tempos de hibridismo na educação. Como metodologia, optou-se por uma abordagem qualitativa, aplicando a técnica de pesquisa bibliográfica, a fim de analisar a literatura dos conceitos supracitados dentro do atual contexto de Covid-19. Entre os resultados da pesquisa, além de consolidar o princípio do protagonismo estudantil como o “pilar central” para o êxito da educação híbrida, evidenciou-se a urgente necessidade de, inicialmente, alfabetizar e conscientizar o estudante à cidadania digital e, concomitantemente, alinhar os atuais paradigmas pedagógicos universitários ao novo perfil do estudante da era digital.
Gender, sexuality and medical education: experiences in a federal school that uses active learning methodologies
Authors: Oliveira Pedro Mendonça de , Aquilante Aline Guerra , Moretti-Pires Rodrigo Otávio , Sampaio Sueli Fátima
Published: December 2021

Abstract: Introduction: Sexuality is characterized as a device of power and Medicine plays a key role as one of the main action institutions. Medical education tends to ratify the heteronormative discourse and diagnose deviant patterns as a pathology. It is based on the binary categorization of individuals as an implication of their sexuality. The assessed medical course assumes the methodological proposal of the constructivist spiral, which seeks to guarantee the protagonism of the students, as well as the dialogue with their previous knowledge, using the concept of Meaningful Learning. Objective: To analyze the students’ experiences in the development of the competence profile related to gender and sexuality during medical school. Method: It is a qualitative research using focus groups with students attending the sixth year of the medical course. Result: The study indicates the students’ perception of the importance of active methodologies, as well as the early inclusion in the fields of practice. However, the thematic of gender and sexuality needs to be proposed in the list of triggers for the use of the constructivist spiral. Conclusion: The active teaching-learning methodologies can constitute a counter-hegemonic strategy in the face of the device of sexuality in guaranteeing biopower, as there is a reorientation of these contents in the curriculum.
Translation, transcultural adaptation and validation of a scale of exposure to humanities among medical students
Authors: Vieira Ilse Seubert Coelho , Carvalho Nathália Irffi , Toledo Júnior Antonio Carlos de Castro , Moura Eliane Perlatto
Published: December 2021

Abstract: Introduction: The humanities are associated with the improvement of medical students’ personal qualities. To date, there are no research instruments that quantify the exposure of medical students have to the humanities. Hence, the availability of a questionnaire with such characteristics in Brazilian Portuguese sets a precedent for the planning and implementation of educational strategies and policies addressing this topic. Objective: to translate and transculturally adapt the “HUMANITIES SCORE (LIFE EXPERIENCES + ATTITUDES) questionnaire, determine its validity and reliability, as well as identify the type of exposure to the humanities of the assessed population. Method: The original version of the questionnaire, written in English, was translated according to what is recommended by the specialized literature, with the addition of some activities in the humanities field, as per the original authors’ suggestion. The translated instrument underwent a pre-test with 31 medical students for semantic validation, followed by the application of its final version to 258 students. The exploratory and the confirmatory factorial analyses were applied to assess the instrument with its internal consistency was checked with Cronbach’s Alpha coefficient. Result: The final questionnaire was administered to the students to verify their type of exposure to the humanities. After the statistical tests were carried out, the final version of the instrument, named “Escala de Exposição às Humanidades” (EEH), included 17 items with Likert-scale responses with five options each, and obtained a Cronbach’s alpha of 0.689. The mean score of the students’ exposure was 1.72 ± 0.37, being influenced by the period at medical school, the number of volunteer social activity experiences, the participation in religious groups, the practice of meditation, and the involvement in political activities. Variables such as female gender, engagement in previous actions related to the humanities before starting medical school and in religious ceremonies positively influenced the students’ opinion about the importance of the humanities for the medical curriculum. Conclusion: The EEH demonstrated reliability in its structure and content, allowing correlations between the students’ exposure to humanities and their opinion about the importance of human sciences in the medical curriculum. It constitutes the first instrument that aims at measuring the humanities exposure rate in Brazil; however, further studies must be carried out, to better validate the instrument.

Published: December 2021

Resumo: Introdução: A necessidade de garantir a autonomia do indivíduo na construção do seu bem-estar evidencia a busca de novas formas de levar conhecimento sobre saúde à população. Uma delas, pelos meios de comunicação em massa, como o rádio, pode alcançar públicos nas mais longínquas localidades, de modo a dinamizar o processo de melhoria da qualidade de vida e mudar o paradigma dos processos de saúde. Nesse sentido, nasce o projeto de extensão “A voz universitária” que leva informações de saúde e bem-estar, pela Rádio 93.1 FM, para mais de 400 mil habitantes na região da Transamazônica. Este trabalho tem como objetivo descrever as experiências dos integrantes desse projeto durante sua primeira fase. Relato de experiência: O projeto contribuiu com a distribuição de materiais informativos de formas física (cartilhas educativas) e digital e via rádio sobre temáticas gerais de saúde, qualidade de vida e cidadania. Distribuíram-se mais de três mil unidades da cartilha impressa a comunidades ribeirinhas do Xingu, além da disponibilização no formato digital à Secretaria Municipal de Educação de Altamira. Além disso, ao longo dos primeiros seis meses de implementação, o projeto abordou via rádio mais de 40 temáticas e reuniu mais de 20 profissionais de saúde locais para conversar com o público. Discussão: A garantia da autonomia do indivíduo para identificar sua urgência de ajuda e procurar auxílio quando necessário é uma forma de dinamizar as práticas de saúde, com especial atenção às comunidades historicamente marginalizadas e socialmente vulneráveis como os indígenas e ribeirinhos do Xingu, que sem acesso a outros meios de comunicação, senão o rádio, teriam mais dificuldade em receber essas informações. Assim, os meios de comunicação em massa se mostram efetivos na construção de um saber científico inclusivo para comunidades tradicionais. Conclusão: Os meios de comunicação em massa e comunicação digital são importantes ferramentas para a prática médica, pois permitem que esta saia dos muros do modelo biomédico e curativista e abra novos horizontes para a resolução dos problemas de saúde sem a necessidade da intervenção direta de um profissional, de modo a garantir a autonomia do indivíduo na construção do seu bem-estar e reaproximar a comunidade acadêmica da sociedade.

Abstract: Introduction: Active methodologies are tools aimed at engaging students in the learning process. Through them, the student is confronted with problem situations and, to solve them, they need to actively participate in the construction of the solution. Socrative® and Kahoot!® are tools that can be used to support the growing demand for new teaching methods. Objective: This study aims to compare the scores obtained by urology student in pre-tests applied using the Socrative® and Kahoot!® applications, and to analyze the students’ perceptions after the exposure to the learning tools. Method: A prospective and comparative study was carried out on the use of the Socrative® and Kahoot!® applications in the discipline of Urology of the medical course. The cohort consisted of two classes of students, 193 in total. Students were divided into six groups, separated in two different schedules, and they took turns weekly switching the tools. The methodologies were used as a pre-test during the tutorial sessions, aiming to compare the grades obtained by the students between the applications. At the end of the course, the students answered a perception questionnaire in relation to each platform. The data were statistically analyzed using the program SPSS Statistics v.20.0. The Wilcoxon non-parametric test and the Chi-square test were used. Values of p <0.05 indicated statistical significance. Result: The Socrative® application obtained better results in terms of the number of correct answers and in relation to the students’ satisfaction. Among the six topics addressed in the pre-tests, two showed higher scores with the Socrative® tool (p = 0.017 and p = 0.042). As for the perception questionnaire, the Socrative® tool showed an average score 1.8 points higher than Kahoot!® (0 - 10 scale), and statistical significance was found in seven out of the eight evaluated questions. Conclusion: The Socrative® tool showed higher grades and was more satisfactory to students than Kahoot!®.
Self-perception of non-cognitive skills among undergraduate health students during Covid-19

Published: December 2021

Abstract: Introduction: The social isolation in Brazil imposed in response to the COVID-19 pandemic has changed the way in which many undergraduate students have been learning, especially those involved in academic activities, as they now have remote rather than in-person classes. These changes may be beneficial if one considers this time favorable for improving non-cognitive skills, such as self-knowledge, resilience, collectivity, versatility, adaptability and leadership. Objective: This study was aimed at investigating how undergraduate health students in Southeastern and Southern Brazil perceived improvement in non-cognitive competencies during the rapid changes imposed in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. Method: This study evaluated 954 undergraduate health students at Brazilian higher education institutions. An online questionnaire consisting of 25 items was used to collect demographic and academic data as well as the subjects’ perception of non-cognitive feelings and skills during the remote continuation of the undergraduate course. The undergraduate health students’ perceptions were measured using a 10-point Likert intensity scale ranging from “very little” to “very much”. This questionnaire was previously validated in a group of 20 undergraduate students attending different health courses at a higher education institution in the State of São Paulo. Result: Correspondence analysis demonstrated that non-cognitive skills, including feelings, were perceived with varying intensities by the undergraduate students, thus making it possible to observe positive and negative impacts resulting from the changes they experienced. Students in the first and second semesters of their first year of studies tended to show lower collaboration scores than students in the third and fourth semesters; on the other hand, students in the first semester tended to show higher scores of openness to new experiences than students in the subsequent semesters. Conclusion: Overcoming procrastination, taking the lead in their studies, collaborating with peers, and being open to the new were the non-cognitive skills that were strongly perceived during the pandemic. In addition, frustration, lack of motivation, and emotional instability were strongly felt by the students, who considered that the COVID-19 pandemic had negatively affected their performance.

Abstract: Introduction: Traditional Complementary and Alternative Medicine (TCAM) encompass therapeutic resources of complex medical systems from different medical rationalities. This field of practice has gained greater visibility in recent times, with the increase in demand for health care that prioritizes a more comprehensive approach of human beings, encouraging the health professionals themselves to seek better training. Objective: To evaluate the interest, the degree of knowledge and the attitude of students and teachers of the medical course towards the TCAM and the challenges for their effective teaching. Method: This is a cross-sectional, descriptive study with a quantitative approach, which was carried out with 214 individuals, 21 of which were teachers and 193 students attending the first to the twelfth semesters of the medical course at a health education institution in Recife-PE. An online survey was used to assess the study participants regarding their learning sources and the level of interest on this topic, as well as the Portuguese version of the Integrative Medicine Attitude Questionnaire (IMAQ). The data were submitted to descriptive statistical analysis (frequency and percentage), using software R, version 3.4.3. and LibreOffice. Result: Among the study participants, 57.14% of teachers and 35.42% of students were aware of the Nacional TCAM Policy (PNPIC, Política Nacional de Práticas Integrativas e Complementares), 85.71% of the teachers and 91.7% of students considered TCAM to be crucial for Brazilian Unified Health System (SUS). Most considered the teaching of TCAM an important subject for the undergraduate medical course (90.48% of teachers and 89.58% of students). The best known practices were yoga, phytotherapy and TCM/acupuncture and there was greater interest to learn yoga and TCM/acupuncture. Conclusion: A large number of students and teachers have never had contact with TCAM. However, most are willing to recommend them to patients and family members and are willing to learn about the topic. Thus, it is recommended that more studies be performed on this topic and that it can corroborate for their inclusion in health courses’ curriculum.

Objective: To understand the motivations that lead adolescents to choose a medical career in Brazil and in Portugal. Method: Exploratory study with a qualitative approach, which used open interviews. The participants were 17 Portuguese and 14 Brazilian freshman medical students attending a public university in the north of Portugal and a private university in the northeast of Brazil in 2018. Bardin’s Content Analysis was used for the analysis and interpretation of the speeches, using the thematic modality. Result: Two thematic modalities were identified: intrinsic and extrinsic motivations and six cores of meaning: willingness to help others, natural tendency, Medicine as a science, interest in research, influence of models, professional stability/social status. Conclusion: Adolescent freshman medical students in Brazil and Portugal showed similar motivations for their professional choice. Intrinsic motivations predominated and the willingness to help others was the most frequent reason for choosing the medical course in both countries.
A literatura que move a obra de Lia Rodrigues
Authors: Pavlova Adriana
Published: December 2021

RESUMO Este artigo apresenta as leituras que moveram o trabalho da coreógrafa Lia Rodrigues (1956), desde os anos 1990, até sua peça de 2016, Para que o céu não caia. O estudo elenca obras de ficção e não ficção, incluindo literatura, filosofia e antropologia, que serviram de dispositivos disparadores para as dramaturgias dos trabalhos, sem, contudo, buscar traduzir a palavra escrita de forma linear ou narrativa em dança. A análise apresenta estas dobras coreográficas, que fogem de uma leitura convencional, para atingir estados corporais nos bailarinos. O levantamento das leituras é apresentado em sua relação com o repertório da companhia, propondo diálogos de fragmentos dos textos com a dança.
O balé por escrito: preceitos e regras de composição dos balés de corte na França do Antigo Regime (1581-1682)
Authors: Couto Clara Rodrigues
Published: December 2021

RESUMO O presente artigo busca compreender as formulações teóricas que ao longo do século XVII sistematizaram o balé de corte como arte, termo entendido à época como um conjunto de preceitos e regras. Após um breve arrazoado sobre os primeiros manuais de dança produzidos na Europa moderna, analisamos os tratados, discursos e libretos que versavam sobre a composição de balés. A partir das obras de Beaujoyeulx, Saint-Hubert, Marolles, De Pure e Ménestrier, entre outros, seria possível compreender os princípios eruditos e os preceitos orientadores da prática de composição desse espetáculo dançado na França do Antigo Regime, bem como a inserção da dança e do balé no domínio da produção escrita e da cultura letrada.

RESUMO Este artigo trata da disparidade étnico-racial entre os estudantes dos cursos de engenharia ofertados pelo Centro Federal de Educação Tecnológica de Minas Gerais (CEFET-MG). Mediante estudo exploratório e análise dos dados, identificamos a prevalência de estudantes brancos, independentemente do campus analisado. Entre os engenheiros diplomados pela instituição no ano de 2017, esse padrão se perpetua, sinalizando a existência de um sistema de hierarquização racial, profissional e social. Nessa perspectiva, para os engenheiros negros diplomados pelo CEFET-MG e pertencentes ao grupo de renda mais baixo, ainda que atuantes em atividades inerentes à profissão, a possibilidade de mobilidade social é limitada.

ABSTRACT The ability to recover from disruptions is important for organizations and supply chains. Empirical data were used to investigate factors that affect supply chain recovery from disruptions, including collaboration, visibility, flexibility, analytical orientation, and supply chain risk management. A literature review was conducted to build an online questionnaire that was applied to manufacturing firms in Brazil. This work’s statistical method includes confirmatory factor analysis and structural equation modeling. Our results indicate that a package of resilience capabilities - collaboration, flexibility, visibility, and analytical orientation - positively affect supply chain resilience. Improving such capabilities, therefore, will allow supply chains to recover better from disruptions. It was also discovered, however, that supply chains do not recover from disruptions by way of supply chain risk management alone. Mutual impacts also exist between the group of resilience capabilities and supply chain risk management.
Formações e carreiras médicas em Portugal no tempo de José Pinto de Azeredo (1764-1810)
Authors: Abreu Laurinda
Published: December 2021

Resumo O artigo contribui para o conhecimento do universo das formações e carreiras médicas num tempo de mudança, impulsionado pelas ideias iluministas, mas também de conflito entre estruturas centenárias e novos enquadramentos jurídicos. Analisando um percurso individual, visto em interação com outros indivíduos e instituições, desvendam-se as contradições da conjuntura histórica que condicionaram a vida de José Pinto de Azeredo. Trata-se da análise das circunstâncias que enquadraram sua atividade profissional, uma vertente do percurso desse médico que ainda não tinha sido estudada. Formulam-se algumas hipóteses que poderão explicar as razões pelas quais não terá alcançado os objetivos a que se propôs.
A adaptação do pensamento evolutivo em sua circulação pública: o caso da revista “Evolution: a Journal of Nature”, 1927-1938
Authors: Caldeira Henrique Rodrigues , Gomes Ana Carolina Vimieiro
Published: December 2021

Resumo O ensino de evolução foi objeto de intensa controvérsia nos EUA nas primeiras décadas do século XX. Em disputa, estava não apenas a validade da teoria, mas também a consideração de suas implicações éticas, políticas e religiosas. Este artigo analisa uma revista de popularização científica inserida nesse contexto, a Evolution: a Journal of Nature (1927-1938). O objetivo é demonstrar que a dinâmica de circulação pública do conhecimento representada pela revista não se resumiu a um processo de simplificação, eliminando detalhes e ressalvas pouco úteis ao público não especializado, mas antes consistiu em uma completa adaptação, confrontando criativamente o conhecimento científico com questões de grande importância na arena pública.
Estatísticas sanitárias e interdependência social na Primeira República
Authors: Camargo Alexandre de Paiva Rio
Published: December 2021

Resumo O artigo analisa o lugar das tecnologias de quantificação na rede formada em torno do combate às doenças, da revolução pastoriana até o movimento sanitarista dos anos 1920. Investiga o papel da demografia sanitária na imposição do modelo pastoriano entre os médicos, seguido da monumentalização estatística das reformas junto a diferentes atores sociais. A teoria do ator-rede de Bruno Latour e os trabalhos de Michel Foucault sobre a governamentalidade são usados para problematizar o conjunto documental formado pelo censo de 1906, artigos e boletins demográficos publicados na imprensa médica, anuários estatísticos e relatórios ministeriais.
Espacio urbano, guerra y enfermedades sociales: el caso del tracoma infantil en Valencia, 1936-1937
Authors: Ferrandis Xavier García
Published: December 2021

Resumen Desde finales de 1937 tuvo lugar en España un repunte de enfermedades endémicas, como el tracoma. Esta enfermedad había sido controlada desde comienzos del siglo XX, especialmente durante la Segunda República (1931-1936); sin embargo, la degradación de las condiciones de vida y los movimientos de población durante la Guerra Civil española (1936-1939) facilitaron la recrudescencia de la endemia tracomatosa. El objetivo de este artículo es analizar las consecuencias que tuvo la Guerra Civil en la organización de la lucha contra el tracoma infantil en Valencia, una ciudad en la retaguardia republicana donde pronto apareció la miseria y el hacinamiento, escenario ideal para la irrupción del tracoma.
La lucha por la leche: consumo, salud pública y la industrialización del abasto de leche líquida en São Paulo, 1911-1945
Authors: Brinkmann Sören
Published: December 2021

Resumen En 1911, la ciudad de São Paulo decidió modernizar su sistema de abastecimiento de leche mediante la apertura del mercado para la importación de leche industrialmente pasteurizada. Pero el producto industrial provocó un amplio rechazo que hizo crecer todavía más la demanda por la leche cruda, producida en pequeños establos bajo condiciones precarias. Este estudio examina, a través de tres décadas, cómo las autoridades públicas afrontaban el doble reto de, a la vez, minimizar los riesgos sanitarios de la leche cruda e impulsar el mejoramiento del producto industrial. El trabajo cierra con un análisis de los efectos de la pasteurización obligatoria, introducida en 1939, que equivalía a la prohibición de la venta de leche cruda en el municipio.
El alimento más completo: debates y prácticas sobre el consumo de leche en México
Authors: Aguilar Rodríguez Sandra
Published: December 2021

Resumen El presente texto explora el consumo de leche en la Ciudad de México entre 1930-1960 a partir de la implementación de políticas públicas y prácticas cotidianas. El texto da cuenta de las estrategias del estado mexicano para incrementar el consumo de leche mediante la importación de leche en polvo, su rehidratación y distribución a precios subsidiados. Médicos, nutriólogos y la industria lechera reprodujeron un discurso de superioridad de la leche, negando o cuestionando el valor nutricional de las dietas bajas en lácteos. Las historias de vida muestran la perspectiva de las mujeres y las dificultades en implementar los ideales de clase media en hogares campesinos y de clase trabajadora.
La “anarquía” de la leche: ciencia, calidades e infraestructuras alimentarias en Bogotá, 1938-1960
Authors: Pohl-Valero Stefan
Published: December 2021

Resumen Este artículo analiza las lógicas, intereses y contingencias presentes en los intentos de expertos y legisladores por fomentar e higienizar el sistema lechero en la ciudad de Bogotá, entre 1938 y 1960. Estos esfuerzos se enmarcaron en una arquitectura institucional que iba de lo municipal a lo nacional, y en un contexto de creciente intervención del Estado en cuestiones nutricionales y de proyectos internacionales de cooperación técnica en salud. A pesar del fracaso en mejorar la calidad de la leche y aumentar su consumo, este estudio de caso nos muestra los efectos de una legislación poco adaptada a las circunstancias locales en la infraestructura material del sistema y los intereses comerciales detrás de las normativas de calidad del producto.
La comercialización de la leche de consumo y las disputas por su regulación, Buenos Aires hacia 1960
Authors: Buschini José
Published: December 2021

Resumen Este trabajo analiza el proceso de regulación de la comercialización de la leche de consumo en la Ciudad de Buenos Aires, con eje en la sanción de la ordenanza n.17.342, de 1960, por la cual se estableció con carácter obligatorio la pasteurización de toda la leche comercializada en la ciudad. El trabajo se concentra en una etapa particular de este proceso, en la que se logró una solución hasta entonces demorada por una compleja trama de intereses sectoriales y criterios expertos contrapuestos. En este marco se consideran algunas de las razones que posibilitaron este cambio y las características de la solución adoptada. Junto a ello se plantean interrogantes en torno de algunas de sus consecuencias para el sector.
Para o bairro, para o subúrbio, para a nação: a experiência náutica do Olaria Atlético Clube (Rio de Janeiro, 1915-1930)
Authors: Melo Victor Andrade de
Published: December 2021

Resumo: Nos subúrbios do Rio de Janeiro, a partir do início do século XX, progressivamente melhor se estruturaram iniciativas esportivas, entre as quais de modalidades mais relacionadas às classes média e alta. Este artigo objetiva discutir uma experiência com o remo promovida por uma associação da zona suburbana fundada em 1915, o Olaria Futebol Clube, renomeado, em 1920, para Olaria Atlético Clube. Que motivações levaram a tal decisão e incentivaram alguns sócios a se dedicarem à prática do rowing? Que estratégias foram utilizadas para a implementar? Que representações se forjaram ao seu redor? Como fontes, se optou pelo uso de periódicos. Percebendo o envolvimento com o esporte como indicador da ação de diferentes grupos sociais na cena urbana, se conclui que o estímulo ao remo foi uma estratégia que ajudou a consolidar a boa reputação da agremiação, seu reconhecimento no bairro, nos subúrbios e na cidade.
Entre la restauración y la fundación: la democracia protegida de la Declaración de Principios del Gobierno de Chile (1973-1980)
Authors: Korstanje Maximiliano , López Freddy Timmermann
Published: December 2021

Resumen: En base a estudios del discurso, se analiza historiográficamente el desarrollo de las macroformas textuales de democracia en la Declaración de Principios del Gobierno de Chile (1974), y su influencia en documentos oficiales en el período fundacional del régimen cívico-militar en Chile (1973-1980), en sus contextos de situación, porque los proyectos del gremialismo, Doctrina de Seguridad Nacional y neoliberalismo establecen posiciones de poder. Se piensa que el discurso democrático posee un significado flexible, permeado por su utilidad en las disputas de producción de sentido político en dinámicas de poder cambiantes, y por valores nacionalistas, conservadores, religiosos, tecnocráticos militares y neoliberales ajenos a la democracia ilustrada. Permite, sin embargo, sustentar un régimen autoritario cuyo más importante dispositivo de poder fue principal, aunque no únicamente, el uso de la violencia.
