Authors: NASCIMENTO Gustavo Diniz do , CORREA Renato Fernandes
Published: June 2018

Resumo O presente estudo avalia critérios para seleção de sintagmas nominais mais representativos do conteúdo de documentos jurídicos em língua portuguesa. A metodologia da pesquisa consistiu em revisão de literatura brasileira e experimento. No experimento foram aplicados dez critérios de seleção aos sintagmas nominais extraídos de um conjunto de resumos de teses e dissertações. Os critérios foram avaliados quanto à eficácia na seleção de sintagmas nominais relevantes para a recuperação da informação. Por meio do experimento, foram identificados como mais eficazes os critérios de eliminação de sintagmas nominais considerados stopwords ou contendo pronomes no núcleo, e os critérios de seleção por posição de ocorrência, nível do sintagma nominal, inverso da frequência nos documentos e frequência de ocorrência em um documento.

Authors: Santos Vinícius Carrião dos , Amaral Tatiana Gondim , Barros Neto José de Paula
Published: June 2018

Resumo A ineficácia e a ineficiência dos comprometimentos estabelecidos dentro da equipe de projeto de edifícios acarretam perdas como retrabalhos, atrasos e custos adicionais de serviços para as fases seguintes do empreendimento e fragilizam os relacionamentos interpessoais entre os envolvidos. Esta pesquisa investiga a contribuição da interação no estabelecimento dos compromissos entre os participantes de equipes de projetos de edifícios no âmbito da coordenação de projetos. A pesquisa, de caráter qualitativo e exploratório, foi estruturada por meio de um estudo de caso relacionado à coordenação de projetos de edifícios. Como resultados percebe-se a dinâmica das ações envolvidas no comprometimento e apontam-se medidas práticas que podem auxiliar na melhoria do comprometimento dos agentes envolvidos, na avaliação e ajuste do processo enquanto o desenvolvem, assim como no aprimoramento das habilidades comunicativas de cada participante. O estudo evidenciou a influência determinante da interação, como instrumento de comprometimento, que relativiza a contribuição de protocolos e de ferramentas de controle adotadas para o processo, assim como a confiabilidade das informações documentadas.

Authors: Andrade Patrícia Amaro , Santos Carolina Araújo dos , Firmino Heloísa Helena , Rosa Carla de Oliveira Barbosa
Published: June 2018

ABSTRACT Objective: To determine frequency of dysphagia risk and associated factors in hospitalized patients as well as to evaluate nutritional status by using different methods and correlate the status with scores of the Eating Assessment Tool (EAT-10). Methods: This was a cross-sectional study including 909 inpatients of a philanthropic hospital. For the diagnosis of dysphagia we used an adapted and validated Brazilian version of the Eating Assessment Tool (EAT-10). The nutritional status was evaluated through the subjective global assessment, and anthropometric measurements included weight, calf and arm circumference, and knee height. The Mann-Whitney test, associations using the Pearson’s χ2 and Spearman’s correlation were used to verify differences between the groups. Results: The prevalence of dysphagia risk was 10.5%, and aging was the associated factor with this condition. Patients at risk presented lower values of arm and calf circumference, variables that correlated inversely with the Eating Assessment Tool (EAT-10) score. Malnutrition was observed in 13.2% of patients based on the subjective global assessment and in 15.2% based on the Body Mass Index. Conclusion: Screening for dysphagia and malnutrition should be introduced in hospitals routine to avoid or minimize damages caused by dysphagia or malnutrition, especially among older people.

ABSTRACT The X-linked spinal and bulbar muscular atrophy (Kennedy’s disease) is a rare X-linked, recessive, lower motor neuron disease, characterized by weakness, atrophy, and fasciculations of the appendicular and bulbar muscle. The disease is caused by an expansion of the CAG repetition in the androgen receptor gene. Patients with Kennedy’s disease have more than 39 CAG repetitions. We report a case of 57-year-old man, resident of Monte Dourado (PA, Brazil) who complained of brachiocrural paresis evolving for 3 years along with fasciculations and tremors of extremities. In addition, he also developed dysarthria, dysphagia, and sexual dysfunction. The patient clinical picture included gait impairment, global hyporeflexia, proximal muscle atrophy of upper limbs, deviation of the uvula to right during phonation and tongue atrophy with fasciculations. The patient reported that about 30 years ago he had undergone gynecomastia surgery. His electroneuromyography suggested spinal muscular atrophy, and nuclear magnetic resonance imaging showed tapering of the cervical and thoracic spinal cord. Patient’s creatine kinase level was elevated. In view of the findings, an exam was requested to investigate Kennedy’s disease. The exam identified 46 CAG repetitions in the androgen receptor gene, which confirmed the diagnostic suspicion. This was the first case of Kennedy’s disease diagnosed and described in the Brazilian Amazon. To our knowledge only other four papers were published on this disease in Brazilian patients. A brief review is also provided on etiopathogenic, clinical and diagnostic aspects.
Blake'sVisions of the Daughters of Albionand the Biopolitical Unconscious
Authors: Hadley Karen
Published: June 2018

Alan Bewell identifies a newly globalized, consumerist nature in the Romantic period, one aspect of a larger context in which Michel Foucault observed the “dawn of biopolitics.” This historical context, along with Erasmus Darwin's best-selling poemThe Loves of the Plants(1789), is brought to bear here on William Blake'sVisions of the Daughters of Albionand on traditional readings of it that manifest nostalgia for an idealized past, a past predating enclosure's separation of population and environment, of human being and nature. Correcting the prevalent misidentification of the marigold that Oothoon plucks inVisions, my reading newly envisions an Oothoon whose relation to the life-forms around her replicates the modes of domination and exploitation inherent in capitalist ideology. What have seemed to be anomalies in Oothoon, her curious connections to Bromion and her offer to procure girls for Theotormon, instead reflect central character traits. In the end, a reaccounting of the historicity of Blake's poetic text yields a heroine and a reading population struggling to view themselves as at the center of a reflexive system that governs and exploits the mutual relations of natural and social surroundings but that also is governed and exploited by the same biopolitical apparatus.

It has already become a critical commonplace to begin a discussion of viet thanh nguyen's the sympathizer (2015) by invoking its powerful opening declaration:

I am a spy, a sleeper, a spook, a man of two faces. Perhaps not surprisingly, I am also a man of two minds. I am not some misunderstood mutant from a comic book or a horror movie, although some have treated me as such. I am simply able to see any issue from both sides.
Vietnam, the Movie: Part Deux
Authors: Chong Sylvia Shin Huey
Published: June 2018

“They cannot represent themselves; they must be represented” (nguyen, sympathizer 179). and so viet thanh nguyen's The Sympathizer invokes Karl Marx's “The Eighteenth Brumaire of Louis Bonaparte,” although the reference is just as likely to be Edward Said's Orientalism, since Marx was concerned with political representation (608), whereas Said was concerned with discursive representation (21). These words frame the important middle act of The Sympathizer, one that focuses on the filming of The Hamlet, a mash-up of Hollywood's sins against not only Vietnamese but also Asians and Asian Americans at large. Reading like a morality play crossed with a backstage musical, this section draws on thinly veiled references to Francis Ford Coppola (the Auteur), Marlon Brando (the hespian), and Martin Sheen (the Idol), who drag the narrator from his newly formed Southern Californian refuge and round up a bunch of stray boat people milling around in the Philippines to put on a movie about the Vietnam War. From the recycling of American military equipment originally sold to Ferdinand Marcos in the Philippines to the reuse of Vietnamese bodies recently shot at and now en route to the United States as refugees, every aspect of the making of The Hamlet illustrates the dangers of allowing oneself to be represented by others. More subtly, The Sympathizer shows how difficult it is to intervene in this regime of representation, especially in the name of authenticity, as it is often deployed by protestors against stereotypes in the media. But if we situate the section on The Hamlet within the overall narrative of The Sympathizer and also in Nguyen's larger critique of memory industries as war industries, we must also understand that the content of the ilm is less important than the dynamics of spectatorship. By linking the narrator's quixotic quest to subvert this film with his repression of his complicity in the rape and torture of a communist agent during the narrator's days as a mole in the South Vietnamese police, Nguyen suggests that watching the Vietnam War is potentially as dangerous as ighting in (or misrepresenting) the war.
Un-American: Refugees and the Vietnam War
Authors: Goyal Yogita
Published: June 2018

Viet thanh nguyen always insists that he is a refugee, not an immigrant, and that his novel the sympathizer is a war novel rather than an immigrant story (“Viet Thanh Nguyen”). In an era when the refugee has become the epicenter of debates about extreme nationalism and closed borders, the distinction between refugee and immigrant demands further parsing. Nguyen states the difference clearly when he contrasts the refugee, rendered stateless and vulnerable by persecution or catastrophe, to the immigrant, whose mobility reaffirms existing narratives of bounded territories. “Immigrant studies,” he writes, “affirms the nation-states the immigrant comes from and settles into; refugee studies brings into question the viability of the nation- state” (“Refugee Memories” 930).
The Ethnic Author Represents the Body Count
Authors: Xiang Sunny
Published: June 2018

Reviews of viet thanh nguyen's the sympathizer (2015) regularly cite the vietnamese-french-american protagonist's self-characterization: “I am a spy, a sleeper, a spook, a man of two faces” (1). A less-cited version of the same characterization appears later in the novel: “I am a lie, a keeper, a book. No! I am a fly, a creeper, a gook. No! I am—I am—I am—” (325). Nguyen's unnamed narrator, a Northern Vietnamese spy with Southern sympathies, has exploited, betrayed, and even murdered his own. If the above statements are any indication, this Cold War history of slippery allegiances takes an existential toll. But the second statement adds a layer of intrigue. With rhyme, anaphora, and considerable theatrical aplomb, it transmutes ethnic duplicity into literary figuration and casts the narrator as another murderer with a fancy prose style. Murder and style, though, are not Nguyen's only connection to Vladimir Nabokov, whom Mark McGurl takes as iconic of the “codification and intensification of modernist reflexivity in the form of … ‘metafiction’” (9). Like Lolita and much of Nabokov's other fiction, The Sympathizer and many of Nguyen's writings hold up that special mirror of “modernist reflexivity.” For Nguyen, however, the chance to wield this mirror comes with the added responsibility of being a Vietnamese American author writing about Vietnamese America. Hence, if Nabokov's iction delivered “an elaborately performative ‘I am’” that enabled his “programmatic self-establishment” (10), Nguyen's equally performative “I am” instantiates not only an authorial program but also a political program of ethnic representation.

Burnout is an important problem in
academic life. Burnout of academic staff affect the quality of education and
the success of the students. Because, being burnout not only brings about
insufficiencies and illnesses in individuals, but also damages the other staff
and the foundation as a result of their underperformance, psychological destruction
and resignation. The aim of this study is to identify the burnout levels of
academic staff and to evaluate the relationship between some variables of
burnout levels by using Proportional Odds Model differently from other
burnout studies about academic staff. For this purpose, 150 academicians
are selected with “Stratified Simple Sampling” method from one of the biggest
Public Universities in Ankara in Turkey, then, the personal information form and Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI) are
implemented to them. This study is
important for recognizing the problems of academic staff and contributing to their
productivity and success in their work.
System Constrained Active Power Loss Minimization in Practical Multi-terminal HVDC Systems through GA
Authors: YALÇIN Faruk , ARİFOĞLU Uğur
Published: June 2018

In this paper, a novel optimal reactive power flow solution approach in
multi-terminal HVDC (High Voltage Direct Current) systems is studied. ULTCs’
(under load tap changer transformers) full equivalent model for the DC
converters’ are taken into account in the proposed AC-DC power unlike the
similar studies in the literature. Thus, the proposed study provides real
accurate results for practical AC-DC applications. Optimal reactive power flow
for minimum active power loss is provided by Genetic Algorithm (GA). For the
test of the proposed study, the IEEE 14-bus test system modified to AC-DC
system is used in the study. The obtained test results prove that the proposed GA
based optimization method is effective to reach the global optimum point of
minimum active power loss without dropping to local minimum point through
satisfying system constraints.

Today, pancreatic cancer is one of the most acute medical and social problems that is connected with features of clinical course of the disease, late manifestation, complexity of diagnostics and rather low efficiency of treatment. More often, this pathology is revealed at late stages, when the radical surgical benefit is not advisable. Until recently, treatment options for patients with metastatic and unresectable locally advanced pancreatic cancer were very limited, the prognosis remained very unfavorable. At the end of the twentieth century, in many countries of the world began to develop new methods of local destruction of unresectable tumors intraabdominal localization, contributing to the relief of symptoms of the tumor process, increase the quality of life and its duration. These include radiofrequency and microwave ablation, high-intensity focused ultrasound therapy, cryoablation, irreversible electroporation and photodynamic therapy. Today, these methods of treatment are actively introduced into practical health care, allow to increase the life expectancy of patients with unresectable tumor processes, along with maintaining or improving its quality. This article presents a literature review of different methods of local treatment in patients unresectable locally advanced pancreatic cancer.

Published: June 2018

The delayed reconstruction of the mammary gland after radical mastectomies is a surgical method for the rehabilitation of patients. Breast reconstruction using an expander is used in women with a small breast size, as well as in patients who refuse to use the patchwork methods for restoring the mammary gland. The article describes expansions, which were applied from the moment of their creation and those that are currently in use. Indications and contraindications to the delayed reconstruction of the mammary gland with the use of an expander are determined.

The article presents the mammary gland marking and stages of delayed reconstructions performed in the department of oncology and reconstructive-plastic surgery of the breast and skin of the P. Hertsen MORI. In the case of a small size of the breast and the consent of patients for the use of implants, this reconstruction is the main surgical intervention. Rehabilitation of patients after radical mastectomies is a series of surgical interventions using expander techniques. At the 1st stage – the use of the expander, at the 2nd stage – the replacement of the expander for the implant, at the third stage – tatooing of areola and / or reconstruction of the nipple-areolar complex from its own tissues.

Due to consistent surgical interventions, as well as the correction of the second breast, it is possible to achieve symmetry of the mammary glands, and, of course, to recreate the removed mammary gland.

The incidence and mortality of skin melanoma in the world and in Russia is growing every year. It should be noted that the proportion of patients with melanoma of late stages remains high. Until recently, only ineffective chemotherapy regimens were available for such patients. That is why the possibility of using modern drugs in real clinical practice for the treatment of this cohort of patients is an urgent issue of modern clinical oncology. The appearance in a real clinical practice of a new group of immunological drugs (anti-CTLA4 and anti-PD-1) for the treatment of patients with metastatic melanoma allows to increase both the time to progression and the life span of this cohort of patients.

In this article, we present the experience of St. Petersburg Regional Clinical Hospital “City Clinical Oncology Clinic” in the treatment of patients with metastatic melanoma under the conditions of real clinical practice with the preparation of ipilimumab as part of the expanded access program from February 2014 to March 2017. In total, 31 patients with disseminated melanoma (12 men and 19 women) were treated with ipilimumab during this period. The average age was 57 years (from 39 to 81 years), in 8 patients there were metastases to the brain. Patients with ECOG status 1 at the time of initiation of treatment were the majority 28 patients (90%), three patients (10%) had ECOG status 2. All patients had previously received 1 to 4 lines of systemic chemotherapy. The median of the observation period is currently 12 (3-35) months. The median time to progression was 6 months. At 5 of 31 patients at the time of analysis, signs of progression were not identified. The median overall survival (OB) was 12 months 9 of 31 patients were alive at the time of the analysis. The annual OM was 56.5%, the 2-year period was 29.4%.

The article presents a clinical case of treatment of a patient with metastatic melanoma, which will have an effect against the progression of the disease after four lines of therapy, including ipilimumab. The patient was included in the program of expanded access to the PD-1 inhibitor, nivolumab. In all, the patient received 65 nivolumab injections. The life expectancy of the patient from the moment of diagnosing the metastatic stage of the disease is 3.5 years, while 2.5 years on the background of nivolumab therapy. Patient monitoring continues.

To date, there have been single studies showing a decrease in testosterone levels in patients as a result of urologic surgeries. It was found that a low level of testosterone has a negative impact on the physical and mental state of men. It was also found that a low level of testosterone increases the likelihood of postoperative complications.

Purpose. Study the changes in testosterone levels in prostate plasma ablation.

Patients and methods. 47 patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia who underwent plasma ablation of the prostate were examined. All patients were divided into 3 groups: Group I (14 patients) – patients with a normal preoperative level of testosterone (above 12 nmol/L), IIA group (17 patients) – patients with preoperative testosterone deficiency receiving HRT 2 weeks before surgery and during the entire period of postoperative follow-up and IIB group (16 patients) – patients with preoperative testosterone deficiency who did not receive therapy. In addition to standard general clinical examinations, all patients had a blood test for total testosterone, luteinizing hormone, sex hormone binding globulin. The level of free testosterone was calculated from the nomogram of Vermeulen, also testing was carried out using questionnaires AMS and IIEF-5.

Results. The decrease in the level of testosterone as a result of the operation was noted in all patients. A month after the operation, none of the groups recorded a return of testosterone values to the original level. However, in the group of patients undergoing HRT, normalization of the testosterone level (12.1 nmol/L and more) was noted by 30 days. Also, early and late postoperative complications were assessed in all three groups. In the group of patients with testosterone deficiency who did not receive HRT, the number of complications was significantly higher. In the group of patients receiving HRT, there was an improvement in the general condition and erectile function, confirmed by the results of the AMS and IIEF-5 questionnaires.

Conclusion. Performing plasma ablation of the prostate gland on a par with other methods of endoscopic surgery of the prostate gland leads to a significant decrease in the level of testosterone in the blood. Performing such operations against a background of testosterone deficiency adversely affects the clinical course of the early postoperative period, the development of complications and the general condition of the patient. Preoperative diagnosis and correction of testosterone deficiency is an important component that allows minimizing the number of risks and complications resulting from surgical interventions, as well as improving the quality of life and accelerating post-operative rehabilitation of patients.

Purpose. To investigate the effect of the development of erectile dysfunction (ED) in patients with prostate cancer after radical prostatectomy (RPE) on the assessment of these patients’ quality of life and their psychological state and the influence on these parameters of ED treatment by implantation of the prosthesis of the penis.

Materials and methods. The material of the study was analysis of the questionnaire data of 30 patients with PC with the postoperative ED before the postoperative period and after the falloprosthesis. In the long-term postoperative period (2–3 years) patients (n = 30) with an ED stand, who wanted to restore sexual function, were installed a 3-component prosthesis of the penis. The comparison group consisted of 38 patients, examined 3 years after RPE. The second comparison group consisted of 28 patients who were examined prior to surgical treatment. The questioning of patients was carried out using the questionnaire MIEF-5, which characterizes the state of sexual function, and the psychological test of Spielberger-Khanin for assessing anxiety.

Results. Itwasshownthatthesumofthepointsofsituationalanxietyafterprostheticsofthepenisdecreasedfrom 32.4 ± 3.6 to 17.4 ± 1.5 points (p = 3.74-5), and personal anxiety – from 43.7 ± 2.2 to 33.0 ± 1.2 points (p = 1.71-5); and, these differences are statistically highly reliable. Accordingly, the evaluation of sexual function shifted in a positive direction (all patients confirmed satisfaction with the restored sexual function).

Сonclusion. The results attest to the high rehabilitation efficiency of correction of ED, which developed after RP, by installing a falloprosthesis.
Tradução, autoria e original: potências do rizoma

Published: June 2018

O polêmico embate entre as visões opostas de Rosemary Arrojo e Paulo Henriques Britto, no campo da tradução, é exemplar na forma como se tem polarizado tentativas de subtrair tradutor e tradução a uma situação de subalternidade. Dessa dicotomia decorre com frequência a desvalorização de um dos lados a fim de legitimar o outro. Assim, neste artigo, objetivo uma alternativa a essa situação. Nesse sentido, iniciouma reflexão com base nas experiências de Carlos Drummond de Andrade, Charles Baudelaire e Paulo Henriques Britto, enquanto poetas e tradutores, buscando investigar a noção de autoria e debater o que se entende por original e tradução. Finalmente, procuro apontar uma vereda possível para evitar posições binárias: autor versus tradutor, original versus tradução. Proponho aqui debater esses termos empregando o conceito de rizoma, alocando tanto o original quanto o texto traduzido nessa rede assistemática, de proliferação horizontal, que possibilita a compreensão de relações não hierárquicas, assim como a inclusão do percurso por vezes caótico de obras como, por exemplo, os chamados “clássicos”.
Considerations for translating “Grande Sertão: Veredas” into Libras
Authors: Sutton-Spence Rachel
Published: June 2018

This essay provides an annotated translation with commentary of the title and opening three short sentences of João Guimarães Rosa’s “Grande Sertão: Veredas” from Portuguese into Brazilian Sign Language, Libras. A Libras translation uses elements of space and highly iconic structures to recreate the story is a visual form.  The commentary here considers the challenges involved in translating the brief section of the Portuguese text, including accommodation of deaf literary norms to those of contemporary Brazilian society, the search for appropriate Libras signs for the regionally specific context of the novel, the needs of a deaf audience to see the visual aspects of the story, and the decisions made on how to represent GuimarãesRosa’s idiosyncratic style of Portuguese in Libras. It highlights the importance of the sign language translator working as a “translator-actor” where the written text told in first person is translated into Libras, producing a translation that is embodied and presented by the translator, who takes the role of the narrator’s “I”.

Aslanov, Cyril. A tradução como manipulação. São Paulo: Perspectiva, 2015.
Authors: Oliveira Caetano Mariane
Published: June 2018

O ato de traduzir instiga discussões desde os primórdios da história. Ao longo desse tempo, questões concernentes à fidelidade, literalidade, liberdade e ofício do tradutor são constantemente e incansavelmente analisadas. Contudo, a partir do Cultural turn, novas perspectivas foram trazidas para o campo dos Estudos da Tradução e essas abordam desde a identidade do tradutor, as influências sociais, políticas, ideológicas e culturais no/do processo tradutório, até o caráter manipulador do texto traduzido. À vista disso, considerando as tendências pós-modernas dentro dos Estudos da Tradução, o livro “A tradução como manipulação”, do professor israelense Cyril Aslanov, publicado em 2015 pela Editora Perspectiva, busca promover a reflexão quanto ao processo tradutório especificamente no que diz respeito ao seu caráter manipulador. A partir de exemplos que vão desde as primeiras traduções da Bíblia até traduções modernas – como as traduções automáticas –, abrangendo a tradução escrita e a interpretação simultânea, o autor procura explanar que até mesmo a tradução mais literal abre brechas para que o tradutor, de acordo com suas intenções, manipule o texto traduzido. De acordo com Aslanov, essa manipulação é inevitável, pois, como explica, ao citar a República de Platão, “a mentira é parte constitutiva da atividade poética” (p. 11). Sendo o tradutor também um poeta, não só de textos literários, mas um poeta-criador que realiza um trabalho de esmero com as palavras, este utiliza recursos que, por vezes, adulteram o texto, tanto o escrito quanto o oral. De fato, tal manipulação é motivada por diferentes fatores que são explicados minuciosamente ao longo da obra.

Embora a inclusão de alunos com deficiência seja garantida por lei há mais de uma década, ainda percebe-se que, em muitas situações, as escolas regulares encontram-se despreparadas para esta concretização. Na disciplina de Educação Física escolar, a falta de preparo dos professores e a escassez de materiais e espaço adequados têm sido fatores impeditivos para a participação ativa de alunos com deficiência. O objetivo deste estudo foi verificar as percepções de adolescentes cegos sobre o conceito e a importância da Educação Física escolar. Para tanto, 10 adolescentes, 5 provenientes de uma escola especial e 5 de escolas regulares, responderam a um questionário aberto. Pôde-se observar que aqueles da escola especial demonstravam maiores conhecimentos e percebiam mais a importância da disciplina de Educação Física em suas vidas.

O presente artigo apresenta possíveis reflexões advindas dos resultados de uma pesquisa que teve como objetivo analisar, a partir de aportes filosóficos, a concepção de corpo/corporeidade nos personagens da peça teatral “Os sete gatinhos” de Nelson Rodrigues. Além desse, os objetivos específicos foram: a) Problematizar o tema sobre corpo e corporeidade, por meio de análises filosóficas dos personagens da obra em questão; b) Analisar as principais concepções de corporeidade que, a nosso ver, os personagens da peça Os Sete Gatinhos representam e as contribuições para a Educação Física. Consideramos que este estudo venha contribuir para um melhor entendimento da subjetividade do corpo para os professores de Educação Física, por revelar aspectos do corpo sujeito que podem ser vistos para além dos padrões pré-estabelecidos de movimento de acordo com os condicionantes alienadores, em que o corpo e sua corporeidade possam ser reinterpretados à luz da concretude da existência humana, havendo uma aceitação e valorização do corpo/corporeidade como algo fundamental para uma existência com significados.

Durante o processo de envelhecimento, o declínio dos componentes de capacidade funcional associado a doenças crônico degenerativas (DCD), diminui significativamente a qualidade de vida do idoso. Dentre as DCD, complicações ósteo articulares e conseqüentes dores crônicas são de alta prevalência nessa população. Diversos estudos têm demonstrado que o tratamento mais efetivo para a melhora de dores crônicas são aqueles que englobam mais de um profissional da saúde, denominado interdisciplinar. O objetivo do presente estudo foi analisar os efeitos da abordagem interdisciplinar na reabilitação de idosa com dor crônica de ombro. Este estudo foi delineado como estudo de caso. Para avaliação dos graus de flexibilidade foi utilizado um goniômetro, nos seguintes movimentos: flexão, extensão, abdução, adução, rotação medial e rotação lateral, de ambos os hemicorpos, antes e após intervenção. Também foi utilizada uma escala analógica para estimar a intensidade de dor em todas as avaliações. A intervenção foi englobada por três diferentes profissionais da saúde: médico, fisioterapeuta e educador físico. Após diagnóstico médico e medicação com antinflamatório, foram realizadas sessões de fisioterapia com tens, laser He, ultrassom e ondas curtas, sendo a seguir iniciado treinamento de flexibilidade por meio do método de facilitação neuromuscular proprioceptiva (FNP). Para análise dos dados, as alterações percentuais das variáveis analisadas, em relação à condição inicial (pré-intervenção), foram empregadas para verificar as possíveis mudanças relacionadas ao tratamento. Foram constatados aumentos da flexibilidade nos movimentos de flexão, extensão, abdução, adução e rotação lateral do hemicorpo direito (4-18%) e extensão, abdução, adução, rotação medial e lateral do hemicorpo esquerdo (1-16%) com diminuição da intensidade de dor em todos os movimentos. Como conclusão, podemos afirmar que a abordagem interdisciplinar mostrou-se bastante eficaz na diminuição da dor crônica da participante, propiciando recuperação da independência e autonomia para realização das atividades de vida diária e, por conseguinte, melhora da qualidade da sua vida (QV).

Ao longo dos 20 anos do programa de pós-graduação da Faculdade de Educação Física (FEF) da Universidade Estadual de Campinas (UNICAMP), instaurou-se uma tradição no desenvolvimento de pesquisas na área da Ginástica. Com o intuito de auxiliar no direcionamento de novos estudos nesta área e também possibilitar que os atuais e futuros estudantes de graduação e pós-graduação conheçam este legado, o presente estudo objetivou analisar a produção na área da Ginástica realizando uma pesquisa bibliográfica tendo como fonte a base de dados da Biblioteca Virtual da Unicamp, o acervo da biblioteca da FEF/UNICAMP e também os currículos dos professores da FEF/UNICAMP disponíveis na Plataforma Lattes do Conselho Nacional de Desenvolvimento Científico e Tecnológico (CNPq). A pesquisa se desenvolveu nas seguintes etapas: identificação dos trabalhos de mestrado e doutorado na área da Ginástica; fichamento, transcrição dos dados e análise geral destas produções. Foi encontrado um total de 20 dissertações de mestrado e 7 teses de doutorado finalizadas, além de 3 dissertações de mestrado em andamento. Os resultados apontam uma maior quantidade de estudos voltados para a Ginástica Geral, Ginástica Rítmica e Ginástica Artística e um número pouco expressivo de pesquisas sobre as demais manifestações gímnicas. Apesar de haver uma ênfase maior nas modalidades subordinadas à Federação Internacional de Ginástica, poucos foram os estudos que abordaram os aspectos competitivos das modalidades ficando um enfoque maior nos aspectos sociais, culturais e educacionais da Ginástica.

Treinar futebol respeitando a essência do jogo: o exemplo do salto como ação tática e não somente técnico
Authors: Silva Pedro Miguel , Santos Pedro Manuel de Oliveira , Marques Junior Nelson Kautzner
Published: June 2018

O objetivo da revisão foi de exemplificar a metodologia de treino do salto de impulsão vertical no futebol assente em premissas táticas. O treino das capacidades físicas, desprovido da sua relação com o verdadeiro significado do Futebol, tem sido bastante utilizado nos últimos anos. Este tipo de trabalho esquece, frequentemente, a relação que deveria existir com o modelo de jogo do treinador, não maximizando a sua utilidade para a forma de jogar que se pretende cultivar na equipa. No caso do salto, este só existe no Futebol enquanto habilidade aberta, pertencente a um sistema termodinâmico de não- equilíbrio, dentro do qual o jogador deverá tomar deliberada e oportunamente a decisão de saltar. Neste sentido consideramos oportuno estabelecer uma relação entre o treino do salto e o modelo de jogo.
Reinforcement corrosion in coastal and marine concrete: A review
Authors: Dauji Saha
Published: June 2018

Concrete is used as a structural material for construction of buildings, jetties, harbors, etc. in many coastal and marine locations. The reinforcement used in concrete is susceptible to corrosion, resulting in loss of steel area, loss of bond, expansion of the reinforcement volume leading to cracking or spalling of concrete. Marine environment induces higher corrosion of reinforcement, compared to in-land locations. Concrete exposed to tidal fluctuations, or to the action of waves and currents are among the most severely affected. Corrosion of reinforcement in concrete is of major concern in coastal and marine environment. Control and monitoring of corrosion is a big challenge to engineers. In the recent years, different investigators reported their studies in this area. Depending on the severity of the exposure conditions, different corrosion inhibitors and protection methods have been attempted with varying degrees of success. The present article presents a generic review of the corrosion issues in marine concrete. Drawing from the experiences of the various researchers, the corrosion measurements, and corrosion control schemes, including use of coated reinforcements and corrosion inhibitors are discussed. The durability performance based design of concrete in the probabilistic framework and the life cycle cost analysis for durability design decisions have been identified as the future direction of corrosion protection of coastal and marine structures.

Published: June 2018

1) Background: We analyzed, by PET-SCAN, how growth hormone (GH) could act on the brain of an older woman, not GH-deficient, which was beginning to show some cognitive deficiencies and presented an ApoE genotype 4/3; 2) Methods: After performing a first psychometric study (TAVEC verbal learning test), the metabolic activity of brain structures related to knowledge, memory, and behavior was analyzed using 18-F Fluorodeoxyglucose PET-SCAN. The patient was then treated with GH (0.4 mg/day) for three weeks and on the last day under this treatment, a new PET-SCAN was performed. One month after beginning treatment with GH, a new TAVEC test was performed; 3) Results: GH administration normalized the cognitive deficits observed in the first psychometric test and increased significantly (P < 0.025) the metabolic activity in practically all brain cortical areas, specifically in the left hippocampus and left amygdala, although not in the left parahippocampus; and 4) Conclusions: This is the first study in which the positive effects of GH on cerebral metabolism have been visualized in a human patient. Our data confirm the positive effects of this hormone on cognition, memory and behavior in patients affected by mild cognitive impairments.
Effect of the Sodium Polyacrylate on the Magnetite Nanoparticles Produced by Green Chemistry Routes: Applicability in Forward Osmosis

Published: June 2018

Aqueous dispersions of magnetic nanocomposites have been proposed as draw electrolytes in forward osmosis. One possible approach for the production nanocomposites based on magnetite nanoparticles and sodium polyacrylate, is the synthesis of the magnetic iron oxide by coprecipitation or oxidative precipitation in presence of an excess of the polymer. In this work we explored the effect of the polymer proportion on the nanomaterials produced by these procedures. The materials obtained were compared s with the obtained by the coating of magnetite nanocrystals produced beforehand with the same polymer. The samples were characterized by chemical analysis, photon correlation spectroscopy, thermogravimetry, X-ray diffraction, infrared spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy and magnetometry. The general trend observed is that part of the polymer is incorporated to the magnetic material during the synthesis heavily modifying its texture, with a drastic reduction of the particle size and magnetic response. The aqueous dispersions of the nanocomposites were highly stable with hydrodynamic size roughly independent on the polymer proportion. Their osmotic pressure proportional to the concentration of the polyelectrolyte, was similar than the generated by the equivalent amount of free polymer in the case of samples generated by oxidative precipitation and smaller in the case of samples generated by coprecipitation. Finally the possibilities of using these materials as draw electrolytes in forward osmosis will be briefly discussed.
