Contribuição do Banco de Perfis Genéticos da Superintendência de Polícia Técnico-Científica do Estado de Goiás com a elucidação de crimes após três anos de funcionamento
Authors: Mota Mariana Flavia , Finotti Nélia Cristina Pinheiro
Published: May 2018

O tema da segurança pública e combate à criminalidade é pauta frequente de debates. A sociedade demanda do Estado políticas públicas eficientes no combate à violência. Bancos de Perfis Genéticos com fins de persecução penal são atualmente utilizados em todo o mundo por mais de sessenta países. Essa ferramenta estabelece uma nova forma de investigação, contribuindo para a resolução de crimes, sendo uma das ferramentas investigativas mais poderosas da atualidade. No Brasil, os Bancos de Perfis Genéticos tiveram início em 2010 e foram regulamentados em 2012 pela Lei 12.654/12. Além de terem criado Bancos de Perfis Genéticos uma década antes do Brasil, o Reino Unido e os Estados Unidos possuem uma legislação mais abrangente e maiores investimentos por parte do governo, assim, possuem um número bem superior de perfis e, consequentemente, de resultados de coincidências. Ainda assim, o Brasil e o Estado de Goiás têm avançado. Após três anos de funcionamento, o Banco de Perfis Genéticos da Superintendência de Polícia Técnico-Científica do Estado de Goiás (SPTC/GO) apresentou 26 coincidências entre vestígios, 10 coincidências entre vestígios e condenados, 12 coincidências interestaduais entre vestígios e auxiliou 38 investigações criminais. Para uma eficiência ainda maior dos Bancos de Perfis Genéticos no Brasil e consequente redução da criminalidade, são necessários mais investimentos do Governo e a decisão do Supremo Tribunal Federal em relação à constitucionalidade da Lei 12.654/12.

Depression in type 1 diabetes was associated with high levels of circulating galectin-3
Authors: Melin Eva Olga , Dereke Jonatan , Thunander Maria , Hillman Magnus
Published: May 2018

Objective

Neuroinflammatory responses are implicated in depression. The aim was to explore whether depression in patients with type 1 diabetes (T1D) was associated with high circulating galectin-3, controlling for metabolic variables, s-creatinine, life style factors, medication and cardiovascular complications.

Design

Cross-sectional.

Methods

Participants were T1D patients (n = 283, 56% men, age 18–59 years, diabetes duration ≥1 year). Depression was assessed by Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale-depression subscale. Blood samples, anthropometrics and blood pressure were collected, and supplemented with data from medical records and the Swedish National Diabetes Registry. Galectin-3 ≥2.562 µg/l, corresponding to the 85th percentile, was defined as high galectin-3.

Results

Median (quartile1, quartile3) galectin-3 (µg/l) was 1.3 (0.8, 2.9) for the 30 depressed patients, and 0.9 (0.5, 1.6) for the 253 non-depressed, P = 0.009. Depression was associated with high galectin-3 in all the 283 patients (adjusted odds ratio (AOR) 3.5), in the 161 men (AOR 3.4), and in the 122 women (AOR 3.9). HbA1c, s-lipids, s-creatinine, blood pressure, obesity, smoking, physical inactivity, cardiovascular complications and drugs (antihypertensive, lipid lowering, oral antidiabetic drugs and antidepressants) were not associated with high galectin-3.

Conclusions

This is the first study to show an association between depression and galectin-3. Depression was the only explored parameter associated with high circulating galectin-3 levels in 283 T1D patients. High galectin-3 levels might contribute to the increased risk for Alzheimer’s disease, cardiovascular and all-cause mortality observed in persons with depression. Potentially, in the future, treatment targeting galactin-3 might improve the prognosis for patients with high galectin-3 levels.
A Dense Linkage Map of Lake Victoria Cichlids Improved the Pundamilia Genome Assembly and Revealed a Major QTL for Sex-Determination

Published: May 2018

Genetic linkage maps are essential for comparative genomics, high quality genome sequence assembly and fine scale quantitative trait locus (QTL) mapping. In the present study we identified and genotyped markers via restriction-site associated DNA (RAD) sequencing and constructed a genetic linkage map based on 1,597 SNP markers of an interspecific F2 cross of two closely related Lake Victoria cichlids (Pundamilia pundamilia and P. sp. ‘red head’). The SNP markers were distributed on 22 linkage groups and the total map size was 1,594 cM with an average marker distance of 1.01 cM. This high-resolution genetic linkage map was used to anchor the scaffolds of the Pundamilia genome and estimate recombination rates along the genome. Via QTL mapping we identified a major QTL for sex in a ∼1.9 Mb region on Pun-LG10, which is homologous to Oreochromis niloticus LG 23 (Ore-LG23) and includes a well-known vertebrate sex-determination gene (amh).
The Protein Arginine Methyltransferase PRMT-5 Regulates SER-2 Tyramine Receptor-Mediated Behaviors inCaenorhabditis elegans
Authors: Bowitch Alexander , Michaels Kerry L , Yu Michael C , Ferkey Denise M
Published: May 2018

G protein-coupled receptors are 7-pass transmembrane receptors that couple to heterotrimeric G proteins to mediate cellular responses to a diverse array of stimuli. Understanding the mechanisms that regulate G protein-coupled receptors is crucial to manipulating their signaling for therapeutic benefit. One key regulatory mechanism that contributes to the functional diversity of many signaling proteins is post-translational modification. Whereas phosphorylation remains the best studied of such modifications, arginine methylation by protein arginine methyltransferases is emerging as a key regulator of protein function. We previously published the first functional evidence that arginine methylation of G protein-coupled receptors modulates their signaling. We report here a third receptor that is regulated by arginine methylation, the Caenorhabditis elegansSER-2 tyramine receptor. We show that arginines within a putative methylation motif in the third intracellular loop of SER-2 are methylated by PRMT5 in vitro. Our data also suggest that this modification enhances SER-2 signaling in vivo to modulate animal behavior. The identification of a third G protein-coupled receptor to be functionally regulated by arginine methylation suggests that this post-translational modification may be utilized to regulate signaling through a broad array of G protein-coupled receptors.
Presentación inusual de una fractura-luxación peritalar. [Unusual presentation of a peritalar fracture dislocation]
Authors: Del Vecchio Jorge Javier , Codesido Mariano , Uzair Anuar Emanuel , Ghioldi Mauricio Esteban , Yañez Arauz Juan Manuel
Published: May 2018

Una luxación peritalar implica la disrupción simultánea de las articulaciones talocalcanea y talonavicular. Es relativamente poco frecuente y representa aproximadamente del 1% al 1,5% de todas las lesiones traumáticas del pie.Las luxaciones peritalares laterales son menos frecuentes (17%) y las posteriores (2,5%) y anteriores son raras (1%). Aproximadamente el 55% de los subtipos medial y el 72% de los subtipos laterales se asocian con fracturas. Una mujer de treinta y seis años sufrió un traumatismo indirecto (kite-surf) después de caerse del kite-board (tabla) cerca de la playa y tratando de evitar un accidente debido al viento intenso. Presentó una luxación peritalar lateral con fracturas de escafoides tarsiano, calcáneo y peroné asociadas. Después de la evaluación primaria, se intentó una reducción cerrada tres días después del trauma. Después de seis días de la lesión se realizó la cirugía. Las fracturas se trataron con osteosíntesis mínimamente invasiva y en el postoperatorio la paciente desarrolló un síndrome de dolor regional complejo. Se recomienda un diagnóstico precoz de las luxaciones peritales y un rápido reconocimiento de fracturas asociadas e infrecuentes y de esta forma evitar complicaciones evitables.  AbstractA peritalar dislocation involves simultaneous disruption of the talocalcaneal and talonavicular joints. It is relatively uncommon and account for approximately 1% to 1.5% of all traumatic foot injuries. Medial dislocation is the most frequent type accounting for approximately 80% of reported cases. Lateral peritalar dislocations are less common (17%), and posterior (2.5%) and anterior dislocations are rare (1%). Approximately 55% of medial and 72% of lateral subtypes are associated with fractures. We report the case of a 36-year-old woman who suffered an indirect traumatism during kitesurf practice, after falling from the kite-board trying to avoid an accident. She presented a lateral peritalar dislocation with associated navicular, calcaneal and fibular fractures. A closed reduction was attempted three days from trauma. Six days after the lesion, surgery was performed. We recommend an early diagnosis of peritalar dislocations and a correct recognitionof infrequent fractures to avoid usual complications.

Os cronistas do "Jornal dos Sports" (1950-1958): subjetividade, clubismo e denuncismo
Authors: Couto André Alexandre Guimarães
Published: May 2018

O presente artigo faz uma apresentação geral sobre as crônicas esportivas do Jornal dos Sports (JS), publicadas entre os anos de 1950 e 1958, tendo como marcos duas copas do mundo deste período. Nesta conjuntura histórica, o cronismo esportivo se consolidou nas grandes cidades brasileiras como um gênero híbrido, forjado no limite entre o jornalismo e a literatura. O alto grau de subjetividade e a exploração dos sentimentos pelos narradores do JS, os chamados cronistas esportivos, tornava-se uma orientação para estes autores. E, dentre as várias possibilidades de atuação destes profissionais, temos a escolha de tratar dois fenômenos específicos: o clubismo e o denuncismo. Cabe destacar que estes autores atuavam de forma heterogênea no que diz respeito aos seus respectivos estilos narrativos, discordando por vezes dos seus olhares sobre o esporte, mas compondo uma equipe que ganhava fôlego nas páginas deste jornal da cidade do Rio de Janeiro.
O esporte como ferramenta política e diplomática: o caso do boicote americano às Olimpíadas de Moscou (1980)
Authors: Meihy Murilo , Souza Luana
Published: May 2018

Neste artigo, buscaremos entender o uso do esporte como ferramenta diplomática e política por países, governos e seus comitês olímpicos, procurando entender o movimento de boicote aos jogos dentro do contexto de disputa política da Guerra Fria e da disputa ideológica entre comunismo e capitalismo. Para isso, é necessário compreender as origens do Esporte Moderno e dos Jogos Olímpicos modernos, em seus contextos e conjunturas iniciais. Analisaremos outro caso de combinação explícita entre esportes e política: o caso das Olimpíadas de Berlim de 1936, realizadas durante o governo nazista de Adolf Hitler. Em seguida, enfocaremos o caso das Olimpíadas de Moscou de 1980, em seu contexto de aumento das tensões entre Estados Unidos e União Soviética e da politização dos jogos através do boicote.

A arte dos escrevinhadores: ofícios cotidianos com o futebol

Apresentação do v. 2, n. 3, set.-dez., 2017.

 

O tema da seção Dossiê desta edição da revista FuLiA / UFMG é Crônica esportiva no Brasil: história e narrativa. Dos gêneros literários – romance, conto, novela, poesia – a crônica é sem dúvida aquele que mais se entrosou com a prática e com o dia a dia do futebol. A liberdade de expressão e a abertura temática – a abrigar o ficcional e o realístico, o anedótico e o sublime, o coloquial e o pedante, o campo de jogo e o extracampo – souberam combinar-se às limitações de espaço concedidas tradicionalmente pelos jornais a esse subgênero cognominado de crônica esportiva.

A crônica esportiva, como se sabe, decalcou-se e emancipou-se da crônica, à medida que o futebol profissional e que as demais modalidades esportivas popularizaram-se e massificaram-se no século XX. O decalque e a emancipação ocorreram também graças ao desenvolvimento dos próprios jornais, que se tornaram periódicos exclusivos de esportes, ampliando a cobertura e as divisões internas do jornalismo esportivo. A crônica esportiva assim fixou-se no interior dos jornais, ao lado das reportagens jornalísticas, dos editoriais, das charges, das fotografias e das cartas dos leitores, que compõem a maior parte dos periódicos voltados às práticas poliesportivas.

A presença longeva e regular da crônica esportiva na imprensa brasileira, seja ela os periódicos gerais ou os jornais específicos de esportes, chamou a atenção da Academia, no momento em que o meio acadêmico se voltou ao estudo do futebol no Brasil, em fins dos anos 1970 e princípios dos anos 1980. Enquanto o interesse das Ciências Sociais pela história esportiva acionou os periódicos como fontes de informação, as áreas de Letras e de Comunicação se interessaram pelo futebol como “fenômeno linguístico”. Sendo assim, era incontornável passar pela crônica e por sua dimensão discursiva na narrativa e na apreensão do objeto.

Stapler versus handswen in small intestinal anastomosis
Authors: Mohamed Mohamed Abdelhady , Ahmed Mohamed Leithy , Hagag Mahmoud Gamal Eldin , Nassar Mohammed Nazeeh Shaker
Published: May 2018

Background: Intestinal anastomosis dates back to 1000, B.C but it accompanied with high rates of failure, sepsis, wound infection and mortality until the development of suture materials. Lembert described his seromuscular suture technique in 1826. Surgical Stapler was first introduced by Hultl in 1908. The development of modern devices over the past 30 years changes the surgical practice dramatically. The objective of present study is to compare the outcome between Stapler and handswen anastomosis in the small intestine.Methods: This study is a randome controlled study carried on 40 patients divided into two equal groups, 20 patients were treated by handswen suture method (group A) and the other 20 patients operated by stapling technique (group B).Results: In both elective and emergent cases as regard patient operative time, postoperative passing flatus, begin of oral intake, hospital stay duration and postoperative complications it was lower in Stapler (group B) comparing to handswen (group A) and P-value was statistically significant (P<0.05). In emergent cases postoperative leakage is equal in both handswen (group A) and Stapler (group B) and P-value was non-significant (P>0.05).Conclusions: In both elective and emergent cases the duration of operation, postoperative passing flatus, return of bowel sound, hospitalization days and postoperative complications including (intraoperative bleeding, prolonged ileus >4 days, patient stenosis and wound infection) in Stapler anastomosis it was lower comparing to handswen anastomosis and P-value was statistically significant (P<0.05). No significant difference in postoperative leakage between handswen anastomosis and Stapler anastomosis in emergency cases (P>0.05).

Authors: Kulkarni Trimal , Benakatti Govind , Bidari Laxman
Published: May 2018

Background: Rickettsial infections do exist in study area posing diagnostic difficulties. The study is aimed to compare performance of serological assays for rapid and low-cost diagnosis for rickettsial infections in northern Karnataka, India.Methods: Prospective study was done on 40 children upto 12 years old, hospitalized during 1-year period with fever and presence of one or more of the clinical features of rickettsial infections. Clinical and biochemical findings and serological assays such as indirect immunofluorescence assay (IFA), enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay-IgM (ELISA-IgM) and Weil-Felix were used to diagnose the disease. Statistical analysis was used to compare the results. Performance characteristics such as sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, negative predictive value and accuracy were calculated using MedCalc for Windows.Results: All 40 patients met the inclusion criteria (23 males and 17 females). Mortality was 2%. Predominant age group was 1-3 years (57.50%). Fever, rashes and hepatosplenomegaly was in all 40 patients (100%); whereas other clinical features showed mixed results. Biochemical findings: anemia in 90%, thrombocytopenia in 45% and elevated transaminases 57.50% and 55%. The ELI-SA-IgM assay showed a sensitivity of 95.00%, a specificity of 95.24% and 95.12% accuracy.  The Weil-Felix assay showed a sensitivity of 77.50%, a specificity of 81.63% and 79.78% accu-racy. ELISA-IgM test showed only 5% (p=0.5555) and Weil-Felix test showed 12.50% (p=0.3816) non-significant difference when both compared with IFA test. Whereas ELISA-IgM showed 17.50% more significant (p=0.0239) when compared with Weil-Felix.Conclusions: ELISA-IgM may serve as rapid and low cost serodiagnostic assay over IFA for rickettsial infections.
Joaquim Pecanins Fàbregas (*1883; †1948), ejemplo de músico dedicado a la música culta y a la de tradición oral
Authors: Ballús Casóliva Glòria
Published: May 2018

En la primera mitad del siglo XX se forjó un perfil de músico interesado en potenciar tanto la música culta como la de tradición oral. Un ejemplo de ello es Joaquim Pecanins i Fàbregas que desplegó una trayectoria como folclorista, pedagogo, pianista, violinista, compositor y director con un fuerte compromiso para recuperar la canción tradicional catalana. Como folklorista recogió y transcribió numerosas canciones y melodías populares de Catalunya, que se editaron, algunas de las cuales fueron premiadas en los concursos de la Festa de la Música Catalana, que organizaba el Orfeó Català, en los años 1904, 1905 y 1906. Fue director coral, principalmente del Orfeó Manresà, director-fundador del Conservatorio de Música de Terrassa y de una orquesta y profesor de piano, armonía, contrapunto y composición. Como pedagogo implantó el método de Émile Jaques-Dalcroze, importado de Suiza, “Canciones con gestos” (llamada también Gimnasia Rítmica) para niños y editó un libro de Teoría de la Música para sus alumnos. Como compositor armonizó más de cien canciones que forman parte del repertorio coral, y compuso diversas obras para piano, para voces, para canto y piano, para quinteto de cuerda y varias sardanas.

EXPLORING THE CONSTITUTION OF ENVIRONMENTAL EDUCATION AS SITUATED, CRITICAL PROCESSES OF LEARNING AND CHANGE: A COLLABORATIVE SYNTHESIS ACROSS DIVERSE REGIONAL CONTEXTS
Authors: Eames Chris , Sund Per , Gasparetto Higuchi Maria Inês , Torres de Oliveira Haydée , O’Donoghue Rob
Published: May 2018

This article offers a set of unique vignettes or stories that attempt to illustrate examples of critical approaches to environmental education (EE) in diverse contexts. It draws from the experiences of five environmental educators in four different regions of the world. We detail the history of the emergence of critical consciousness in education in Brazil, and its application in a Brazilian region, then move to examples of critical educational responses to oppression in New Zealand and Zimbabwe, before closing with a critical examination of innovative teaching and research in Europe. Through this breadth of endeavour, we identify commonalities across these contexts such as the importance of participatory action and research to examine people-environment relations, particularly as constituted by indigenous peoples, and to interpret realities in ways that empower through learning-led social-ecological change.  We argue that this critical approach can foster emancipation through individual and collective learning in EE processes within very different contexts.

The Impact of the Global Economic Crisis on the Performance of Industries and Firms in Poland. Does Internationalisation Matter?
Authors: Gorynia Marian , Jankowska Barbara , Mroczek-Dąbrowska Katarzyna , Trąpczyński Piotr , Dzikowska Marlena
Published: May 2018

The global economic crisis has significantly altered the landscape of contemporary business markets worldwide. This article aims to verify how severely the economic crisis affected Polish industries and changed the competitive position of Polish companies. The authors put forward a research proposition which states that companies open to foreign cooperation (both exports and imports) were more likely to suffer from economic disturbances than companies that were domestically focused. The outcomes of the study are twofold. First, 24 manufacturing industries were ranked to check which of them suffered the most and the least as the result of the economic crisis. Secondly, using the CATI method 701 companies operating in the above‑mentioned industries were surveyed. The analysis details how the competitive position of these companies was shaped depending on their degree of internationalisation. The obtained results were afterwards compared with a previously conducted literature review, and the article attempts to present the impact of the global economic crisis on both industries (mesoeconomic perspective) and individual companies (microeconomic perspective).
Decomposition of Differences between Household Income Distributions in Poland in Years 2002 and 2012
Authors: Landmesser Joanna Małgorzata
Published: May 2018

In this study we present the decomposition of income inequalities between household income distributions in Poland in 2002 and 2012. The difference between two distributions may be decomposed using the counterfactual distribution, which can be constructed in various ways. Techniques such as the residual imputation approach and RIF‑regression method (recentered influence function) were considered. The application of these methods made it possible to show the aggregate detailed decompositions in different quantile points along the income distribution. The influence of several person’s characteristics on the differences in income distributions was examined. By decomposing the inequalities into the explained and unexplained components it was possible to receive additional information about their causes.
Ekonomiczne i ekologiczne efekty zewnętrzne w planowaniu przestrzennym

Gospodarowanie przestrzenią jest zadaniem trudnym, zwłaszcza w kontekście ograniczoności dostępnych zasobów. Ponadto w związku z wytwarzaniem dóbr publicznych i prywatnych generowane są w przestrzeni miasta efekty zewnętrzne. Mając na względzie złożoność tego problemu, w artykule podjęto dyskusję teoretyczną na temat problematyki efektów zewnętrznych (spillover) w planowaniu zabudowy przestrzeni, zwłaszcza tych przeznaczanych pod zabudowę mieszkaniową. Rozważania skupiono na ekonomicznych, ale także przyrodniczych oraz technologicznych efektach zewnętrznych towarzyszących gospodarce przestrzennej.
Dlaczego przedsiębiorstwa emitują obligacje zamienne z wysoką początkową premią konwersji?
Authors: Kaźmierczak Damian
Published: May 2018

Celem artykułu jest identyfikacja przyczyn emisji obligacji zamiennych z wysoką początkową premią konwersji. Analiza trzystu emisji długu zamiennego przeprowadzonych w latach 2004–2014 przez spółki ze Stanów Zjednoczonych, Europy i Azji działające w sektorze produkcyjnym i usługowym wykazała, że obligacje zamienne z wysoką premią konwersji są wykorzystywane przez niedowartościowane przedsiębiorstwa znajdujące się w trudnej sytuacji finansowej, które traktują dług zamienny bardziej jako alternatywę dla emisji akcji niż dla zwykłych obligacji korporacyjnych bez wbudowanej opcji konwersji. Emisja obligacji zamiennych najprawdopodobniej ma pozwolić tym spółkom na podniesienie kapitału własnego w późniejszym czasie i na dużo lepszych warunkach w porównaniu z publiczną emisją akcji.

Problems of speech and language disorders in children – case study of a four‑year‑old child
Authors: Pokorska Patrycja
Published: May 2018

The problems of speech and language disorders on children with central nervous system disorders are dealt with in the literature of the subject from the perspective of various disciplines – medicine, linguistics, pedagogy, psychology and speech therapy. However, there are no clear definitions in the literature of semantic terms, the clinical picture, the substance of the disorder and their etiopathogenesis. Diagnosis of raised disorders in neurologically impaired children is a structured and multi‑specialist procedure using neurological, linguistic and psychological data, further impeded by ambiguity in the criteria for their description. In practice, a variety of approaches to naming and defining these disorders often stumbles on the discrepancies in the diagnosis, which leads to errors in communication between specialists. This article discusses the case of a four‑year‑old child with intrauterine hypothyroidism and second‑degree intraventricular haemorrhage with speech and language disorders, the example of which is terminological discrepancies.
Acellular outer membrane vesicles of Brucella abortus strain 19 elicits both humoral and cell mediated immune response in mice
Authors: Rose Losa , Kumar Bablu , Jain Ankita , Singh M K , . Abhishek
Published: May 2018

Outer membrane vesicles (OMVs) contain biologically active proteins, lipoolysaccharide (LPS), periplasmic and membrane-bound proteins and are known to perform diverse biological functions. OMVs from Brucella abortus S19 were isolated and characterized by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), SDS-PAGE and immunoreactivity was investigated by western blotting. On TEM, bilayered spherical structures of 50-200 nm were observed. SDS-PAGE of OMVs revealed approximate bands size of 82 kDa, 68 kDa, 38 kDa, 32 kDa, 29 kDa and 18 kDa. Western blot analysis of OMVs revealed a dominant immunoreactive band of 38 kDa that correspond to some major outer membrane proteins. Humoral immune response was measured by indirect ELISA which showed that OMV specific antibodies were detected from 7th day post immunization (DPI) onwards and showed a rising trend up to 35th DPI. Cell mediated immune (CMI) response against OMVs as evidenced by the proliferation of splenocytes have also been observed. Thus OMVs were found to possess immunogenic proteins which had potential to induce both humoral as well as cell mediated immunity. After correlating this immune response with protection it has been concluded that OMV can be used as one of the vaccine candidate against brucellosis.

To investigate the preservability of Deccani ram semen in three different extenders - SC (Sodium Citrate), T (Tris), C (Coconut milk) egg yolk extenders after dilution and chilling (5ºC) at 1, 24 and 48 hr. of storage. Eight Deccani adult rams (aged 2-4 years) were selected and ejaculate from each ram was divided into 3 aliquots and diluted with SC, T and C extenders (final concentration - 400 million spermatozoa/0.2 ml semen) and stored at 5ºC. Semen evaluation was done by computer assisted semen analyser (CASA). Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) was used to test the significance difference between extenders. S: Sodium citrate (SC) and Tris (T) - Egg yolk extender was significantly (P less than 0.05) better as compared to Coconut milk extender (C). No significant difference (P>0.05) was observed between SC and T. Sperm kinematics assessment by CASA revealed Sodium citrate-based egg-yolk extender (SC) as better extender for preservation of Deccani Ram semen upto 48 hr. of storage as compared to T and C.

El conjuro como acto dialógico: análisis de cinco conjuros nahuas recopilados por Hernando Ruiz de Alarcón desde los postulados de Mijaíl Bajtín
Authors: Torres López Juan Carlos
Published: May 2018

En este artículo se estudia al conjuro en lengua náhuatl del siglo XVII como un género discursivo cuyo modelo de realización es el diálogo y la negociación en una esfera de praxis discursiva mitológica. El análisis de cinco conjuros para la cura de enfermedades recopilados por Hernando Ruiz de Alarcón nos permite ver la naturaleza performativa y dialogada del discurso, así como a sus interlocutores con sus réplicas en el diálogo. El análisis que sustenta este dialogismo está basado en los estudios del teórico literario Mijaíl Bajtín sobre los componentes del acto de comunicación discursiva y su teoría sobre los géneros discursivos, así como en el concepto do enunciado como unidad mínima de comunicación.
Un análisis de 'Los símbolos transparentes' como sátira degenerativa de la masacre estudiantil de Tlatelolco
Authors: Kriza Elisa
Published: May 2018

Este artículo ofrece una nueva lectura de la novela Los símbolos transparentes de Gonzalo Martré (1978), interpretándola como sátira sobre la matanza deTlatelolco y como un cuestionamiento general de la construcción de narrativas oficiales. El marco teórico utilizado para este análisis es el de la "sátira degenerativa" de Steven Weisenburger (1995). La adopción de esta teoría sobre un tipo de sátira postmoderna, grotesca, y escéptica se basa en el éxito que ha tenido como marco do interpretación en diferentes culturas. Usando esta teoría descifro la devastadora crítica social de la novela de Martré, enfocándome en su deconstrucción total de narrativas oficiales públicas o privadas sobre los sucesos del 2 de octubre de 1968 en la novela.
Gaps in Perception on Social Media Use in Crisis Communication Between Vietnamese Organizations and Stakeholders
Authors: Ly-Le Tuong-Minh
Published: May 2018

Despite the emergence of social media in many aspects of Vietnamese lives, including marketing and promotional activities, Vietnamese organizations have used little social media in their crisis communication efforts. The organizations are hesitant to adopt social media in crisis communication and prefer to use traditional media because of its controllability and professionalism. However, with the increasing number of organizational crises that started on social media in the past years, it is arguably that Vietnamese stakeholders use social media as one of their main communication channels during crises. Should the organizations use social media in response? Through a series of interviews to PR practitioners and stakeholders in Vietnam, this research aims to find out the similarities and gaps in the perception of social media use for crisis communication between these two groups, and to guide a crisis communication practice that is appreciated by stakeholders.

 

Bahasa Indonesia Abstrak: Meskipun munculnya media sosial dalam banyak aspek kehidupan Vietnam, termasuk kegiatan pemasaran dan promosi, organisasi Vietnam telah menggunakan sedikit media sosial dalam upaya komunikasi krisis mereka. Organisasi ragu-ragu untuk mengadopsi media sosial dalam komunikasi krisis dan lebih suka menggunakan media tradisional karena pengendalian dan profesionalisme. Namun, dengan meningkatnya jumlah krisis organisasi yang dimulai di media sosial dalam beberapa tahun terakhir, dapat dibilang bahwa pemangku kepentingan Vietnam menggunakan media sosial sebagai salah satu saluran komunikasi utama mereka selama krisis. Haruskah organisasi menggunakan media sosial sebagai jawaban? Melalui serangkaian wawancara kepada praktisi PR dan pemangku kepentingan di Vietnam, penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui persamaan dan kesenjangan dalam persepsi penggunaan media sosial untuk komunikasi krisis antara kedua kelompok ini, dan untuk memandu praktik komunikasi krisis yang dihargai oleh para pemangku kepentingan. .
In vitro evaluation of flexibility of newer splints
Authors: Yaswanthi Gandrala , Kumar Chandrabhatla Srinivas , Rao Vanga V. Narsimha
Published: May 2018

Aim: The aim of the study was to compare the flexibility of three different splints and to determine their  peak load failure in fracture pattern.Material and Methods: Three different splints (wire-composite, single layer fibre glass and fibre reinforced Everstik splint) were adapted to the extracted Human incisors, placed in a non-rigid fashion on the experimental dental models designed for the study. Stress analysis was conducted on the test specimens by applying both static axial and  45⁰ oblique force with linear increasing intensity ranging from 0-50N and 0-30N respectively both with and without splints using universal testing machine. For each loading direction, the energy required to modify the position of the teeth at increasing applied forces was recorded for specimens with and without splints and the difference between two values (∆E) was determined, which corresponds to the rigidity of the materials.Results: For both axial and oblique tests, fibre reinforced splint had shown least ∆E values (0.02±0.08 in axial, 0.01±4.05 in oblique) while wire-composite had shown highest ∆E values (0.67±2.56 in axial, 1.42±5.16 in oblique).Conclusions: Fibre reinforced splint could be an  ideal alternative for splinting traumatized teeth, as it exhibits a lower energy variation needed for deformation and conducive to optimal periodontal healing during immobilization.
Análise do campo ambiental como um problema para racionalidade moderna
Authors: Marques Victor Hugo de Oliveira , Maciel Josemar De Campos
Published: May 2018

O presente texto se insere nos pressupostos teóricos dos Estudos do Desenvolvimento. Porém, no momento, quer-se abrir um primeiro recorte: como o conceito de ‘ambiental’ discutido por Enrique Leff obriga necessariamente a uma discussão crítica sobre a racionalidade moderna que sustenta o discurso epistemológico para o desenvolvimento, e, mais especificadamente, ao pensamento de Heidegger. Para tanto será percorrido o seguinte caminho: [1] a discussão da revisão epistemológica do próprio desenvolvimento pela abertura da temática do ambiental; e [2] que conceitos heideggerianos podem, de início, ser tomados para a questão epistemológica de fundo ao desenvolvimento, qual seja, o conceito de ciência.

Authors: Vieira Camila Aoyama , De Souza Wérika Weryanne Rosa , De Lima Janaína Sousa , Goulart Letícia Silveira
Published: May 2018

O objetivo deste estudo foi comparar a sensibilidade antifúngica e a presença dos genes de virulência SAP1-3 em linhagens de Candida spp. Foram estudados 49 isolados, sendo 30 C. albicans e 19 Candida não-albicans (CNA). A determinação do perfil de sensibilidade foi realizada conforme protocolo do Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute. Para identificação dos genes SAP1-3, foi utilizado método de PCR. Todas as amostras de C. albicans foram sensíveis ao fluconazol, dentre as CNA 21% foram sensíveis e 68,4% foram SDD, 100% das linhagens de C. albicans e 94,7% de CNA foram sensíveis ao cetoconazol. Para itraconazol, 86,7% dos isolados de C. albicans e 42,1% de CNA foram sensíveis. Os genes mais frequentes nas linhagens de C. albicans foram SAP1 (56,6%,) e SAP2 (40%) seguido de SAP3 (26%). As amostras de CNA apresentaram um predomínio de SAP2 (42,1%), seguido por SAP1 (10,5%), SAP3 não foi identificado. As espécies de Candida apresentam diferenças significativas quanto ao perfil de sensibilidade a azólico e em relação à presença dos genes SAP1-3, sugerindo que esses fatores devem refletir em uma terapêutica e patogênese distintas para estas leveduras.
