Abuso de drogas e transtornos alimentares entre mulheres: sintomas de um mal-estar de gênero?
Authors: Simões-Barbosa Regina Helena ,   Universidade Federal do Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, Dantas-Berger Sônia Maria ,   Universidade Federal Fluminense, Brazil
Published: February 2017

Resumo: O artigo discute o abuso de drogas e os transtornos alimentares sob as perspectivas críticas de gênero e do cuidado em saúde. Postula-se que o sofrimento subjetivo pode se expressar no corpo por meio das doenças psicossomáticas. Nessa perspectiva, a insaciável fome consumista das drogas ou de bens supérfluos, bem como o adoecimento pela fome voluntária em busca de um ideal de esbeltez, como na anorexia e bulimia, podem ser sintomas que denunciam o sofrimento feminino. Uma revisão nos campos da saúde coletiva e das teorias feministas destaca a magnitude dos fenômenos da medicalização e mercantilização da saúde presentes na psiquiatrização do mal-estar feminino. Na transição de gênero das sociedades capitalistas, as cobranças sociais pelo desempenho dos velhos e novos papéis femininos acentuam sentimentos de inadequação, traduzidos no mal-estar de gênero que circunda o abuso de drogas e os transtornos alimentares, analisados como patologias de protesto. Propõe-se o resgate do ideário do Programa de Assistência Integral à Saúde da Mulher, orientado pela integralidade, para enfrentar tais desafios.

Published: February 2017

Resumo: Este estudo objetivou analisar a evolução da mortalidade materna por aborto em Minas Gerais, Brasil, no período de 2000 a 2011, sob o enfoque das causas múltiplas de morte. Estudou-se as características sociodemográficas das mulheres, ano, local e causas básica e associada de óbito. Foi calculada a razão de morte materna (RMM) geral e específica por aborto em cada ano e o coeficiente de correlação de Spearman (p < 0,05), para avaliar a evolução das razões no período. Foram registrados 183 óbitos por aborto, 15% dos óbitos maternos, e a RMM por aborto manteve-se estável. A razão causa múltipla e causa básica de óbito por aborto foi de 1,38. O uso do método de análise de causas múltiplas mostrou-se eficaz para dar maior visibilidade ao aborto. Os problemas oriundos da ilegalidade da prática de abortos favorecem o aparecimento de causas que mascaram mortes maternas e a sua subnotificação. Assim, ações intersetoriais são necessárias para a definição de estratégias, a fim de reduzir as desigualdades sociais e melhorar a qualidade dos serviços de atenção à mulher.
The Internationalization of Psychology Journals in Brazil: A Bibliometric Examination Based on Four Indices
Authors: Fradkin Chris
Published: February 2017

Abstract: There is considerable variability among psychology journals in Brazil, in terms of presence on the international stage. However, research as to why is very scarce. This study empirically examined the relationship between several indices of internationalization and real-world internationalization, among these journals. 661 articles from the top-17 psychology journals in Brazil were coded for: English-language text, editorial board makeup, lead author institution, and article type. Analyses revealed that successful internationalization was associated with: (i) lead author institution from a native English-speaking country; (ii) empirical articles; and (iii) editorial board members from a native English-speaking country. Use of English-language text was not associated with successful internationalization. These findings suggest that the path to internationalization for psychology journals in Brazil may depend on increased publishing of findings from English-speaking countries; or at the very least: increased collaboration between Brazilian and native English-speaking scholars.

Abstract: The Child Feeding Questionnaire (CFQ) assesses parental attitudes, beliefs and practices about child feeding and obesity proneness. This research aimed to translate and to test the reliability of the CFQ and to evaluate this instrument in Brazilian families. The participants were 300 mothers and 300 children, aging from 2 to 11 years old, of both sexes. The translation, synthesis, back-translation, evaluation by an expert committee and pre-test were performed. Besides the application of questionnaire to mothers, data regarding anthropometric measurements in mothers and children was collected. The indexes of content validity index, test-retest reliability and internal consistencies were good. The parental factors Perceived parent weight, Perceived child weight, Concern about child weight, Restriction, Pressure to eat and Monitoring on child feeding were associated with overweight in childhood. In conclusion, these results highlight the validity and utility of the Brazilian version of the CFQ.
Resilience in LGB Youths: A Systematic Review of Protection Mechanisms
Authors: Freitas Daniela Fonseca , Coimbra Susana , Fontaine Anne Marie
Published: February 2017

Abstract: Given the mental health disparities among LGB and heterosexual youth, literature has increasingly emphasized the need to identify the mechanisms that promote resilience among sexual minorities. This systematic review sought to answer the question: what are the protection mechanisms against homophobia among LGB youth? Of the 147 references located in the search, 13 studies were analyzed. The identified protection mechanisms were organized by two criteria: specific to sexual orientation or general, and considered to be at the personal, relational and contextual level. Most of the mechanisms revealed to solely promote the positive adjustment in the presence of risk. General protective mechanisms frequently revealed to be more compensatory of the risks than those specific to sexual orientation.
Mothers-Offspring Resemblance in Intelligence and Its Relationship to Socioeconomic Status

Published: February 2017

Abstract: Kinship studies have shown that most cognitive ability variances are attributable to genotypic variance. Additionally, kinship correlations are generally increased when tasks that are highly g loaded are considered, a result known as the "Jensen effect". Alternatively, some studies have suggested socioeconomic status as an important factor for explaining differences in cognition. The present study investigated these premises in a sample of 141 mothers (mean age = 36.6; SD = 6.0) and their offspring (53.2% girls; mean age = 11.0; SD = 2.1). The Standard Progressive Matrices of Raven (mothers and offspring) and six other cognitive measures (offspring only) were administered. The findings suggested evidence of g heritability (Jensen effect), which is consistent with published literature on intelligence. However, kinship correlation coefficients were lower (.041 to .177) when compared to other published findings. Finally, the difference between the mother's IQ score and that of her child was influenced by SES and mother's education level.

ABSTRACT Manipueira, a liquid residue obtained from the cassava industrialization, shows high toxicity to the microbial diversity. This study aimed at evaluating the potential of manipueira applied to the soil to control Meloidogyne incognita in soybean. A completely randomized design, in a 2 x 11 factorial scheme, was used, consisting of two application forms of manipueira (single and two applications), in eleven concentrations (0 %, 10 %, 20 %, 30 %, 40 %, 50 %, 60 %, 70 %, 80 %, 90 % and 100 %), with five replications per treatment. Some agronomic traits and parasitism characteristics were also evaluated. The plants that received a single application of manipueira showed a gain of 100.41 % in root length, while the volume and fresh root mass showed gains of 81.52 % and 28.11 %, respectively, with the two applications. Regarding parasitism, the single application was more effective in reducing the number of juveniles in the soil and roots, where the concentrations of manipueira to kill 50 % of the nematodes were 1.65 % and 4.37 %, respectively. Thus, besides being effective in controlling M. incognita, manipueira has a positive effect on the development of soybean and may be recommended as a nematicide and also as an organic fertilizer.

Published: February 2017

ABSTRACT The use of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) in the production of rootstocks is an alternative to accelerate plant growth. However, their response depends on the symbionts species and environment. This study aimed at evaluating the influence of AMF species [Scutelospora heterogama, Gigaspora margarita, Glomus etunicatum, Acaulospora sp. and a control (non-inoculated)] on the vegetative development of citrus rootstocks {citrange 'Fepagro C37 Reck' [P. trifoliata (L.) Raf. x C. sinensis (L.) Osbeck.] and 'Kumquat' [Fortunella hindsii (L.) Swingle]}. The experimental design consisted of split-plot randomized blocks, with 10 plants per plot and 3 replications. Height, stem diameter, number of leaves, leaf area and fresh and dry root and shoot mass were evaluated. The colonization of AMF in the roots was also assessed, determining the percentage of colonization and density of hyphae, arbuscules and vesicles. The rootstocks showed no difference for the plant growth parameters, in the absence of AMF. The AMF species colonized the rootstocks roots, but were only effective in accelerating the citrange 'Fepagro C37 Reck' growth, especially when inoculated with Scutelospora heterogama, Gigaspora margarita and Glomus etunicatum. The influence of AMF on vegetative development depends on the citrus rootstock species.

Abstract OBJECTIVE To validate the Comply with post-exposure management among healthcare workersinstrument for Nursing in Brazil. METHOD A methodological study carried out with 137 nursing professionals exposed to biological material. The existence of floor and ceiling effects was analyzed, evaluating reliability by the internal consistency of the items and test-retest reproducibility. The construct validity was analyzed by the multitrait-multi method analysis. RESULTS Ceiling effects were found in two subscales. The result of the internal consistency of four subscales varied between 0.81 and 0.91. The results were considered satisfactory, while two subscales presented an unsatisfactory result (0.50 and 0.37). An evaluation of the measurement stability obtained positive results in relation to the statistical significance, with Intraclass Correlation Coefficient values between the two measurements ranging from 0.301 to 0.727; the validity of a convergent and divergent construct was confirmed by multitrait-multi method analysis, except for the Attitude subscale, which presented unsatisfactory values. CONCLUSION The instrument presents satisfactory results for validity and reliability, except for the Attitude dimension.

Abstract OBJECTIVE To analyze the prevalence of falls and frailty syndrome and the association between these two syndromes in the elderly population. METHOD Systematic review, without restriction of dates, in English, Portuguese and Spanish languages, in the databases PubMed, CINAHL, LILACS and in the SciElo virtual library. The association between both variables was extracted from the studies (Odds Ratio and 95% Confidence Intervals). RESULTS The review included 19 studies published between 2001 and 2015. The prevalence of falls in the frail elderly population was between 6.7% and 44%; in the pre-frail, between 10.0% and 52.0%, and in the non-frail, between 7.6% and 90.4%. The association between both variables presented a value of OR 1.80 (95% CI 1.51-2.13). CONCLUSION There is evidence that falls are associated to the frailty in the elderly. Other factors may influence this association, such as age, sex, data collection instrument of the studies, place where they live and the process of senescence.
As viagens da favela e a vida social dos suvenires
Authors: Freire-Medeiros Bianca ,   Universidade de São Paulo,  Brazil, Menezes Palloma Valle ,   Universidade do Estado do Rio de Janeiro,  Brazil
Published: February 2017

Resumo Este artigo resgata e examina a biografia da favela turística a partir de sua cultura material. Suvenires produzidos e comercializados em duas favelas cariocas (Rocinha e Santa Marta) constituem o ponto de observação privilegiado para o entendimento das espirais de sentido que se erguem na confluência entre imaginação e materialidade, arte e topografia. Partimos das cores que nascem nas telas pintadas para consumo dos turistas e se reproduzem nas paredes das favelas, tomando-as fruto de políticas baseadas em novos regimes de visibilidade e controle da pobreza. As considerações finais refletem sobre a morte dos (anti)suvenires ou o que parece ser um esgotamento das possibilidades de representação da favela como marca capaz de agregar valor a diferentes produtos no mercado global.

Published: February 2017

Resumo Este artigo analisa a participação da Argentina e do Brasil como países convidados de honra (em 2010 e 2013, respectivamente) na Feira do Livro de Frankfurt. Remetemos tais presenças à história recente da feira e ao seu papel na estrutura dos fluxos e circuitos de edição e tradução em nível mundial, estrutura esta regulada pelas relações desiguais entre distintos países e mercados linguísticos. Analisamos as negociações entre entidades do poder público e da política setorial que deram origem a tais participações; as ênfases temáticas escolhidas para compor os estandes; e as características socioprofissionais dos autores de cada delegação. A conclusão é que tais casos permitem observar relações específicas entre intelectuais e Estado em cada contexto, na medida em que fazem emergir não apenas as tensões entre cultura e economia, mas também os modos específicos como cada país “traduz” questões locais para um âmbito de trocas simbólicas transnacionais.

O corpo nas atualizações do racismo contemporâneo
Authors: Camozzato Viviane Castro
Published: February 2017

Analiso o conceito de racismo a partir de suas relações com o tema dos discursos corporais e sua centralidade na produção dos sujeitos contemporâneos. Atravessa esta discussão a problemática de que o processo de investimento e valorização do corpo não pode ser apartado de todas as discussões suscitadas pelo crescente investimento sobre a vida advinda pelo biopoder - um poder que se pauta por "fazer viver e deixar morrer" e que também implica, no caso das discussões empreendidas neste artigo, em práticas racistas que envolvem a apartação dos nomeados como "diferentes" numa desenfreada busca pela "pureza", referida nas escritas analisadas como sendo uma característica de pessoas "magras" em oposição às "gordas". Discuto, portanto, a existência de atualizações do racismo no contemporâneo quando se trata de matar também pelas palavras, silêncios, julgamentos morais, em suma, pelas construções diferenciais dos "outros" em prol das referências identitárias.
Considerações sobre a presença do esporte na educação física infantil: reflexões e experiências
Authors: Richter Ana Cristina , Gonçalves Michelle Carreirão , Vaz Alexandre Fernandez
Published: February 2017

Considerando o debate acadêmico da área de Educação Física brasileira em torno do esporte como conteúdo de ensino, o presente trabalho reflete sobre a possibilidade de pensá-lo e experienciá-lo no contexto da Educação Infantil. Observando a cultura como elemento substancial da educação e o esporte como produção cultural, indaga pela responsabilidade dos professores na apresentação desse universo às crianças, na contramão das suas conformações competitivas, e a respeito do qual os pequenos não se encontram alheios. Com base nessas questões, apresenta experiências pedagógicas que tomam práticas esportivas como conteúdo da Educação Infantil, entendendo que a Educação Física nesta etapa da Educação Básica também pode se ocupar dos grandes temas das práticas corporais, entre eles, o esporte, no sentido de criar, com os pequenos, outras formas de se relacionar com os objetos culturais.
Heurísticos y racionalidad: ¿La ignorancia beneficia a los estudiantes en algún sentido?
Authors: López Astorga Miguel
Published: February 2017

Gigerenzer (2007) piensa que la mente humana no es racional, es decir, que no opera siguiendo las prescripciones de la lógica formal. Para demostrarlo, presenta diversos ejemplos del razonamiento de las personas en situaciones cotidianas. En este trabajo, revisamos uno de los ejemplos presentados por Gigerenzer (2007) en este sentido, lo analizamos críticamente y llegamos a dos conclusiones: i) no demuestra que la mente humana es irracional; y ii) nos muestra que la selección de contenidos es un aspecto importante en la práctica pedagógica, pues puede provocar, si no se hace adecuadamente, concepciones excluyentes de determinadas realidades en los estudiantes.
Eugenesia en Buenos Aires: discursos, prácticas, historiografía
Authors: Armus Diego ,   Swarthmore College,  USA
Published: February 2017

Resumen En la década de 1990, algunos estudios subrayaron la dominante presencia de la eugenesia positiva en la Argentina moderna. Enfatizaban en el lugar marginal que en los discursos eugenésicos tuvieron los violentos métodos de selección. En los últimos años esta perspectiva ha sido revisada, señalando la viscosidad conceptual de la eugenesia y la presencia de discursos eugenésicos negativos. Este artículo comenta estos avatares historiográficos y también se detiene en las narrativas que estas perspectivas han articulado respecto del problema de la esterilización y regulación del matrimonio de quienes padecían tuberculosis en Buenos Aires durante la primera mitad del siglo XX. Con ese ejemplo se intenta remarcar la necesidad de tensionar discursos y prácticas en cualquier empeño por entender el pasado.

Resumo O artigo estuda a circulação transnacional de métodos de identificação de pessoas na América do Sul. Analisa a implementação do sistema antropométrico nas polícias de Argentina, Uruguai e Brasil a partir da última década do século XIX e as críticas que esse sistema recebeu no momento de consolidação da datiloscopia na região, no início do século XX. Em um contexto de intenso trânsito mundial de ideias, especialistas e tecnologias policiais, o bertillonage foi discutido e hibridado na América Latina. A história do sistema antropométrico nas repúblicas do rio da Prata e do Brasil envolveu diversas viagens de médicos, juristas e policiais a Paris, debates sobre sua adequação às realidades locais e a constituição de uma aberta polêmica sobre as técnicas de identificação.

Platinum-Fluoropyrimidine and Paclitaxel-Based Chemotherapy in the Treatment of Advanced Anal Cancer Patients
Authors: Sclafani Francesco , Morano Federica , Cunningham David , Baratelli Chiara , Kalaitzaki Eleftheria , Watkins David , Starling Naureen , Chau Ian , Rao Sheela
Published: February 2017

Background

Although treatment of localized anal cancer (AC) is well established, very little evidence is available to inform the management of advanced tumors, and the prognosis of these patients remains poor. We have analyzed treatment pathways and outcomes of a single-institution series of advanced AC patients in order to provide insight into the management of this rare condition.

Materials and Methods

Inclusion criteria included epidermoid histology, inoperable locally recurrent or metastatic disease, and availability of full medical records. The primary objective was overall survival (OS). Prognostic factors were analyzed in univariate models.

Results

Sixty-four patients (1997–2014) were included: 16 (25.0%) with inoperable locally advanced and 48 (75.0%) with metastatic tumors. Fifty-one (79.7%) received at least one line of chemotherapy; of these, 37% underwent multimodality treatment. A combination of a platinum agent plus a fluoropyrimidine was the most common first-line regimen (74.5%), with an objective response rate (ORR) of 34.4% (95% confidence interval [CI], 18.6%–53.2%). Paclitaxel-based chemotherapy was used in 15 patients as front-line or salvage treatment, and the overall ORR was 53.3% (95% CI, 26.6%–78.7%). Median progression-free survival (PFS) after first- and second-line chemotherapy was 5.8 (interquartile range [IQR], 2.8–7.6) and 3.2 (IQR, 2.5–7.1) months, respectively. Five-year OS in the overall population was 15% (95% CI, 7.0%–25.0%). Age ≤65 years and liver metastases were predictive of better PFS (hazard ratio [HR], 0.39; 95% CI, 0.16–0.97; p = .04) and worse OS (HR, 2.25; 95% CI, 1.25–4.03; p = .01), respectively.

Conclusion

A platinum agent plus a fluoropyrimidine and paclitaxel-based chemotherapy are active regimens for advanced AC. Clinical trials are needed to standardize treatment pathways, investigate the potential of novel therapeutics, and improve the poor prognosis of this rare condition.
Briefing: Infrastructure projects and the flexibility of urban infrastructure
Authors: Rossi-Hansberg Esteban
Published: February 2017

An economic evaluation of large infrastructure projects requires predictions to be developed about the evolution of the economic environment as well as of the effect of the project on economic dynamics. A set of new quantitative economic models can help with this task. A proper evaluation can not only make projects more profitable in terms of private and social returns, but also prevent whole regions from falling into decline. The author discusses the case of declining cities and the role that road and other forms of infrastructure have played in the persistence of their downfall. Particular emphasis is put on the distorted urban structure of the city of Detroit in the USA and the potential gains from policies that can improve its current structure. The author argues that a policy based on ‘development guarantees’ by the city government or other outside parties can help ameliorate the current negative impact of an infrastructure built for a city that used to have a population that was three times larger than today.

PENERAPAN PEMBELAJARAN BERBASIS MASALAH
Authors: - Rusman
Published: February 2017

Abstract, changes in the perspective of students as objects to students as subjects in the learning process become a point of departure in the discovery of various innovative learning approaches. However, it is often overlooked that the essence of learning is students’ learning and not teachers’ teaching. Teachers are required to choose a learning approach that can drive the spirit of every student to be actively involved in their learning experience. One learning alternative that enables the development of students’ thinking skills (reasoning, communication, and connection) in problem solving is Problem Based Learning (PBL). Problem Based Learning is an innovation in learning because it allows the optimization of students’ thinking skills through systematic process of group work, so that students can empower, hone, test, and develop their learning capacity on an ongoing basis. Therefore, it is essential that there is an in-depth study on what and how Problem Based Learning is applied in the learning process, so that the learning is oriented towards students’ activities, value- laden, and more meaningful.Keywords: Problem Based Learning, Learning InnovationAbstrak, Perubahan cara pandang terhadap siswa sebagai objek menjadi subjek dalam proses pembelajaran menjadi titik tolak banyak ditemukannya berbagai pendekatan pembelajaran yang inovatif. Salah satu kecenderungan yang sering dilupakan adalah melupakan bahwa hakikat pembelajaran adalah belajarnya siswa dan bukan mengajarnya guru.
