Authors: Ribeiro Luciana , Petroll Martin de La Martinière , Scussel Fernanda , Damacena Claudio
Published: February 2019

Resumo O objetivo deste trabalho é analisar como propagandas com humor incongruente veiculadas no Facebook atuam no engajamento, nas atitudes e na intenção de compra das consumidoras brasileiras. Um experimento realizado no Facebook, com 269 consumidoras brasileiras, permitiu testar se a presença de humor incongruente influencia a efetividade das propagandas, confirmando tal hipótese, além de demonstrar que se trata de um apelo humorístico com efeitos positivos sobre o público feminino. Entre as contribuições deste artigo, destaca-se que, seus achados confirmam que engajamento, atitudes e intenção de compra conformam importantes medidas da efetividade das propagandas no contexto virtual; revelam novas facetas sobre a percepção das mulheres quanto a estímulos tradicionalmente destinados aos homens; e apontam as redes sociais como elementos fundamentais à tomada de decisão do consumidor. Evidencia-se, assim, o papel da internet como plataforma de interação entre empresas e usuários e a necessidade de construção de um relacionamento nesta conjuntura, contexto em que o humor incongruente mostra-se capaz de chamar atenção, despertar engajamento, provocar atitudes favoráveis e, deste modo, conduzir a intenção de compra.

ABSTRACT Objective: To identify the impact of physical activity correlates with the isolated and combined presence of insufficient physical activity and high screen time among adolescents. Methods: A cross-sectional representative study was carried out with a sample of 786 adolescents (16.0±1.0 years; 53.9% girls) randomly selected in the schools of São José dos Pinhais, Paraná, Southern Brazil. The physical activity correlates analyzed were sex, nutritional status, economic class and sexual maturation. Physical activity level and screen time were measured and classified according to reference criteria. The associations were tested with Poisson regression and the population attributable fraction (PAF) verified the impact of correlates on the combined presence of insufficient level of physical activity and high screen time by the prevalence ratio (PR). Results: Among the studied adolescents, 84.7% (n=666) were considered insufficiently active, 96.4% (n=758) reported high screen time and 82.1% (n=645) presented the combined presence of these behaviors. The female sex and the high economic status were positively associated with the insufficient level of physical activity (PR=1.19; 95% confidence interval - 95%CI 1.12-1.27; PAF=15.97 - female/adjusted; PR=1,1; 95%CI 1,01-1,19; PAF=9,09 - high/adjusted class). The female sex also was positively associated to high screen time after adjustments (PR=1.18; 95%CI 1.10-1.27; PAF=15.25). The female sex was positively associated with the combined presence of these behaviors (PR=1.18; 95%CI 1.10-1.27) with a 15.25% impact on these behaviors. Conclusions: Physical activity correlates can have an impact on the insufficient level of physical activity and high screen time, especially among girls.
Between the conceived and the lived, the practiced: the crossing of spaces at the arts and crafts fair of Namorados Square in Vitória/ES, Brazil
Authors: Domingues Fabiana Florio , Fantinel Letícia Dias , Figueiredo Marina Dantas de
Published: February 2019

Abstract This article aims to understand how the organizational space of a fair (the Arts and Crafts Fair of the Namorados Square, in Vitória, Espírito Santo) constitutes itself as an intersection of uses that different subjects adopt in the urban space. For this, we used an ethnographic method, with the data produced from systematic and participative observations between May and October 2015. We examined the data based on categories created from the theoretical propositions of the authors Henri Lefebvre and Michel De Certeau. Results show that the organization of the fair is determined by provisional practices, whose existence is permeated by manifestations of power, resistance and conflict, which emerge from the daily life of the subjects. By revealing forces that act by forming ephemeral harmonies, we show the intersections of space that are conceived and lived. The fair, as an organizational form, emerges from the juxtaposition of uses and appropriations of its spaces, in dynamic relationships that privilege space concepts elaborated by certain subjects and sometimes by others.
Strategic resonance and innovation in public security services in Brazil
Authors: Menelau Sueli , Akutsu Luiz , Isidro-Filho Antônio , Fernandes Antônio Sérgio Araújo
Published: February 2019

Abstract The aim of this study was to test an exploratory contribution of a model for the relationship between strategic resonance (SR) and innovation in public security services (IPSS), with the construction of two scales. The subject of this analysis are the Federal District Military Police (PMDF) and Community Security Stations (CSSs). The model for the relationship was tested using structural equation modeling (SEM) of innovation in public security services (IPSS) and strategic resonance (SR) explanatory variables. The results show that the structural relationships postulated between the variables are corroborated by the global sample analyses, obtaining evidence of scale validation. We concluded that the CSSs are an IPSS, where we observed that policing is linked to interactions between the population and PMDF in a relationship comprising the human, structural and operational characteristics of the service. The main contributions of this research are the proposal of a relationship between SR and IPSS and the development and validation of two scales that measure these two constructs.
Brazilian new middle class stratagem: dialectics of consumption and renewal of the overexploitation of labor
Authors: Abdala Paulo Ricardo Zilio , Misoczky Maria Ceci
Published: February 2019

Abstract The argument of this essay is that the ideia of emergence of a new Brazilian middle class was a stratagem adopted to create a positive agenda with transitory social consensus. In order to develop it, we return to the social class theory to discuss the stratification theory, which is the methodological and theoretical support of the so called new middle class. In addition to that, another possibility of analysis is presented, based on the theoretical propositions by Alvaro Vieira Pinto and Ruy Mauro Marini, two authors from the Brazilian social thought, articulating consumption, social classes, work and production as inseparable relationships, part of dependent capitalism contradictions. From these authors´ perspective, it was possible to understand that the expansion of consumption, basis for the new middle class stratagem, temporarily improved the living conditions of people at the expense of deepening the overexploitation of labor, reproducing the development of dependency.
Economic voting in Brazilian presidential elections: evidence with panel data from municipalities in São Paulo
Authors: Fernandes Ivan Filipe de Almeida Lopes , Fernandes Gustavo Andrey de Almeida Lopes
Published: February 2019

Abstract This paper uses a new data panel of 625 Brazilian municipalities over 5 election years to analyze the influence of the local level economic performance on the proportion of votes obtained by the incumbent in national elections. We examine municipalities from the State of São Paulo, the most populous Brazilian state, using fixed-effects and random- effects models. The results suggest that the performance of the local economy is relevant in the national elections. Apart from that, the results also suggest that the mayors play an important role in the national elections when it comes to transfer votes that are favorable to the coalition in power and that the richest municipalities tend to be more opposition prone.
Pace of modal shifts in internationalization processes within a firm
Authors: Galdino Kátia de Melo , Rezende Sérgio Fernando Loureiro , Lamont Bruce T.
Published: February 2019

ABSTRACT Our understanding of the temporal dimension of the internationalization of the firm is incomplete at best. Based on this knowledge gap, this article analyzes how the internationalization processes within a firm can be differentiated according to the pace of modal shifts. We built a qualitative, retrospective longitudinal, embedded case of the internationalization of a Brazilian medium-sized firm that established a footprint in 16 foreign markets over nearly three decades. We find that its internationalization processes can be classified into three groups as far as pace is concerned: an Unmovable Internationalization Process, an Inert Internationalization Process and an Accelerated Internationalization Process. We then call attention to a mismatch between the pace of learning and the modal shifts in the firm’s internationalization processes. Further, we suggest a new picture of the internationalization of the firm by proposing the existence of a number of internationalization processes that unfold at distinct paces within a single firm.
Merde! Teachings from Russian art to Organizational Learning
Authors: Robinson Rodrigo , Cassandre Marcio Pascoal
Published: February 2019

ABSTRACT Considering the human being in his entirety is to understand him as a spiritual being, who does not separate the existential from the instrumental, who finds and shapes the meanings of what he experiences in the action or while acting, can be a path to more adequate responses to the present society (LINCOLN; GUBA, 2006). In this article, we relate concepts and practices in Russian art with Organizational Learning (OL). From Vygotsky’s ideas on Double Stimulation and the method of Ascending from the Abstract to the Concrete, used in learning theories like the Cultural-Historical Activity Theory (CHAT), we sought to establish a connection between the potential of art to stimulate and develop man’s learning as a spiritual being and OL. Art offers the possibility of awakening a spiritual force that can move man and “awaken” him to his role of agency, transforming his life and his reality. This relationship is established by bringing Vygotsky and Stanislavski together, and we use the method of the Russian playwriter to propose a draft method that considers art as medicine and a cure for organizations to understand the human being in his entirety and also for them to be constituted as spaces for development.

Authors: Felix Raquel Regina de Oliveira Martins , Alves Viviane , Lima Josiane Palma
Published: February 2019

Resumo A expansão urbana no município de Itajubá (MG) ocorreu em áreas onde atualmente o Código Florestal visa proteger, denominadas áreas urbanas de ocupação consolidadas. Porém, a carência de dados específicos da região dificulta a tomada de decisão dos gestores. Nesse contexto, este trabalho tem o objetivo de diagnosticar as áreas do município limítrofes ao Rio Sapucaí, com vista à gestão sustentável de uso e ocupação do solo. O estudo de caso aborda o ordenamento jurídico referente às áreas de preservação permanente (APP), do âmbito federal ao municipal, bem como as diretrizes do Plano Diretor. Foi realizado o mapeamento das áreas limítrofes ao rio, com o auxílio do Sistema de Informação Geográfica (SIG), por meio da interpretação visual de imagens de satélite georreferenciadas. A elaboração dos mapas possibilitou a classificação dessas áreas quanto ao uso e à ocupação, como também a preocupação em aumentar e manter áreas reflorestadas nos últimos dez anos pela administração municipal, além de constatar a existência de locais já adensados que poderiam receber projetos de revitalização e mobilidade visando à melhoria da qualidade de vida da população.
Montreal Cognitive Assessment for cognitive assessment in chronic kidney disease: a systematic review
Authors: Amatneeks Thaís Malucelli , Hamdan Amer Cavalheiro
Published: February 2019

Abstract Introduction: There is evidence in the literature that cognitive impairment is more prevalent in individuals with chronic kidney disease (CKD) than in the general population. The Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) is an instrument with a good application profile for cognitive evaluation of patients with CKD-like impairments. The objective of this study is to perform a systematic review of MoCA use in the context of CKD. Method: The keywords "Montreal Cognitive Assessment", "Kidney Disease" and "Chronic Kidney Disease" were used to search the databases. The inclusion criteria were: a) empirical articles; b) approach to cognitive impairment in CKD; c) papers in Portuguese and English. Results: The studies were mostly cross-sectional, published in medical journals, with research carried out mostly in Europe. About 45% of the studies had samples of less than 150 participants and variations in the prevalence of cognitive impairment were found ranging from 28.9% to 74.6%. The cutoff point for the identification of the impairment presented variation between the studies. Discussion: The results' analysis demonstrates the need for more complete studies on MoCA scoring and adaptation in its different versions. We recommend to the health professionals who will use the results in the clinical setting that the interpretation of the results be made in the light of studies more related to the context lived by the patients. Conclusions: The instrument is efficient to be used in several stages and treatment modalities of the disease. We point to the need to adapt a cut-off point for the instrument in the different translations of the instrument.

Published: February 2019

Abstract Introduction: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) negatively affects the physical and biopsychosocial aspects of the lives of individuals with the disease, thereby affecting the quality of life (QOL) of patients and their families. Objectives: This study aimed to measure the QOL of individuals with CKD and compare the QOL scores of patients with CKD to the scores of disease-free individuals to find factors associated with better QOL. Method: The local Ethics Committee approved this cross-sectional study. The study was carried out at a public clinic and a private hemodialysis clinic. Participants were asked to answer the WHOQOL-BREF and a sociodemographic questionnaire. Statistical tests were used according to the variables of interest and significance was attributed to differences with p-values < 0.05. Results: Nearly two thirds (59%) of the case group members were males and 55% did not have a spouse; 53% were seen at a private clinic and 57% had complications. The variables that more significantly affected QOL were smoking (perception of QOL) (Bi = - 0.4061; p = 0.032), undergoing hemodialysis (general health status) (Bi = - 0.3029; p = 0.034), and duration of sessions (Bi = 0.117; p = 0.039) (environmental domain). Conclusion: The QOL of patients with CKD was significantly lower when compared to controls in the physical and psychological domains. Several variables affected the perception of QOL and should be considered in clinical assessment.
Uremic lion face syndrome
Authors: Gameiro Joana , Duarte Inês , Outerelo Cristina , Lopes José António
Published: February 2019

Abstract Mineral bone disorder is a common feature of chronic kidney disease. Lion face syndrome is rare complication of severe hyperparathyroidism in end-stage renal disease patients, which has been less commonly reported due to dialysis and medical treatment advances in the last decade. The early recognition of the characteristic facial deformity is crucial to prompt management and prevent severe disfigurement. The authors present a rare case of severe hyperparathyroidism presenting with lion face syndrome and bone fractures.
Premaxilla: up to which age it remains separated from the maxilla by a suture, how often it occurs in children and adults, and possible clinical and therapeutic implications: Study of 1,138 human skulls
Authors: Trevizan Mariana , Nelson Filho Paulo , Franzolin Solange de Oliveira Braga , Consolaro Alberto
Published: February 2019

ABSTRACT Objective: To evaluate topographic and temporal aspects of premaxillary bone and premaxillary-maxillary suture, since they are fundamental anatomical elements little explored clinically. Methods: 1,138 human dry skulls were evaluated, of which 116 (10.19%) of the specimens were children, and 1,022 (89.81%) were adults. The skulls were photographed and the percentage of premaxillary-maxillary suture opening was determined. Subsequently the data were tabulated and submitted to statistical analysis, adopting a level of significance of 5%. Results: The progression of premaxillary suture closure from birth to 12 years of age was 3.72% per year. In 100% of the skulls up to 12 years, the premaxillary-maxillary suture open in the palatal region was observed, while 6.16% of adults presented different degrees of opening. Conclusions: The premaxilla exists in an independent way within the maxillary complex and the presence of the premaxilla-maxillary suture justifies the success of anteroposterior expansions to stimulate the growth of the middle third of the face, solving anatomical and functional problems.

Authors: Notaroberto Daniela Ferreira de Carvalho , Martins Mariana Martins e , Goldner Maria Teresa de Andrade , Mendes Alvaro de Moraes , Quintão Cátia Cardoso Abdo
Published: February 2019

ABSTRACT Objective: This clinical study was conducted in order to evaluate force decay over time of latex and non-latex orthodontic intraoral elastics. Methods: Patients (n = 15) were evaluated using latex and non-latex elastics in the periods of : 0, 1, 3, 12 and 24 hours. The rubber bands were transferred to the testing machine (EMIC DL-500 MF), and force values were recorded after stretching the elastic to a length of 25mm. Paired t test was applied and analysis of variance (ANOVA) was used to evaluate the variation of force generated. LSD (Fisher’s least significant difference) post-hoc test was thus employed. Results: As regards the initial forces (zero time), the values of force for non-latex elastic were slightly higher than for the latex elastic. In the subsequent times, the forces generated by the latex elastic showed higher values. Regarding the material degradation, at the end of 24 hours the highest percentage was observed for non-latex elastic. Conclusions: The latex elastics had a more stable behavior during the studied period, compared with non-latex.

Authors: Al-Falahi Bilal , Hafez Ahmad Mohammad , Fouda Maher
Published: February 2019

ABSTRACT Objective: The objective of this study was to assess the external apical root resorption (EARR) of the maxillary posterior teeth after intrusion with miniscrews. Methods: Fifteen patients (13 females and 2 males) with age ranging from 14.5 to 22 years (mean 18.1 ±2.03 years) were selected to participate in this study. All patients presented with anterior open bite of 3 mm or more. An intrusion force of 300 g was applied on each side to intrude the maxillary posterior teeth. Cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) scans were taken pretreatment and post-intrusion and were analyzed to evaluate the EARR. Results: The maxillary posterior teeth were intruded in average 2.79 ± 0.46 mm (p< 0.001) in 5.1 ± 1.3 months, and all examined roots showed statistically significant EARR (p< 0.05) with an average of 0.55 mm, except the distobuccal root of the left first permanent molars and both the palatal and buccal roots of left first premolars, which showed no statistically significant changes. Conclusions: The evaluated teeth presented statistically significant EARR, but clinically, due to the small magnitude, it was not considered significant. Moreover, the CBCT provided a good visualization of all roots in all three planes, and it was effective in detecting minimal degrees of EARR.

Published: February 2019

Abstract Objective: To assess the short-term effect of two in vitro erosive challenge protocols on the bond strength of metal orthodontic brackets on bovine enamel. Methods: Sixty bovine incisors were selected and randomly divided into six groups: AS7 (artificial saliva - 7 days, Control Group); CC7 (Coca-Cola™ - 7 days); LJ7 (lime juice - 7 days); AS30 (artificial saliva - 30 days, Control Group); CC30 (Coca-Cola™ - 30 days); LJ30 (lime juice - 30 days). Microhardness testing was performed prior to the erosive challenge to verify the standardization of samples. Immersion was performed 4x/day for five minutes, for either 7 or 30 days. After immersions were concluded, the brackets were bonded and shear bond strength was assessed after 48 hours. The Adhesive Remnant Index (ARI) was also assessed. Data were analyzed by two-way ANOVA, followed by Tukey’s post-hoc and Student’s t test for paired samples, and the Kruskal-Wallis non-parametric test (α = 5%). Results: The mean and standard deviation of microhardness testing of total samples were 281.89 ± 44.51 KHN. There was no statistically significant difference in shear bond strength for the time factor (7 or 30 days; F5.54= 0.105; p = 0.901). However, there was a statistically significant difference for the solution factor (F5.54= 6.671; p = 0.003). These differences occurred among solutions of Saliva x Coca-Cola™ (p = 0.003) and Coca-Cola™ x Lime Juice (p= 0.029). The assessment of the Adhesive Remnant Index showed no significant difference between groups. Conclusions: The immersion time used in the erosion protocols did not affect the bond strength of brackets to teeth. Coca-Cola™ induced significantly higher shear bond strength values than lime juice and artificial saliva. However, the short term effects of 7/30 days in this in vitro study may not be extrapolated for in vivo ones. Clinical studies should be conducted, substantiating the laboratory results.

Published: February 2019

Abstract Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate a flapless surgical technique as an alternative to traditional alveolar corticotomy used to accelerate orthodontic tooth movement (OTM). Methods: To induce OTM in Wistar rats, 40 cN of orthodontic force were applied to the maxillary left first molars. Forty rats were distributed into control groups (CG1, CG3, CG7 and CG14) and experimental groups (n= 5), in which alveolar perforations were made using a spear-shaped guide bur (EG1, EG3, EG7, EG14). Euthanasia dates were set at 1, 3, 7 and 14 days, respectively, after tooth movement began. The amount of OTM was measured with a caliper, and osteoclasts present in the periodontal ligament of the mesial root of the moved tooth were counted by means of histological evaluation (tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase staining, TRAP). Results: Although there was no difference in the amount of OTM within subgroups of corresponding experimental periods (p> 0.05), when EG14 and CG14 were compared, a larger number of osteoclasts was counted in the experimental group (p< 0.00). Conclusion: The authors concluded that flapless cortical alveolar perforations led to more intense osteoclastic activity on the fourteenth day; nevertheless, no evidence of accelerated OTM could be noted.

Published: February 2019

Abstract Objective: Considering that the available studies on prevalence of malocclusions are local or national-based, this study aimed to pool data to determine the distribution of malocclusion traits worldwide in mixed and permanent dentitions. Methods: An electronic search was conducted using PubMed, Embase and Google Scholar search engines, to retrieve data on malocclusion prevalence for both mixed and permanent dentitions, up to December 2016. Results: Out of 2,977 retrieved studies, 53 were included. In permanent dentition, the global distributions of Class I, Class II, and Class III malocclusion were 74.7% [31 - 97%], 19.56% [2 - 63%] and 5.93% [1 - 20%], respectively. In mixed dentition, the distributions of these malocclusions were 73% [40 - 96%], 23% [2 - 58%] and 4% [0.7 - 13%]. Regarding vertical malocclusions, the observed deep overbite and open bite were 21.98% and 4.93%, respectively. Posterior crossbite affected 9.39% of the sample. Africans showed the highest prevalence of Class I and open bite in permanent dentition (89% and 8%, respectively), and in mixed dentition (93% and 10%, respectively), while Caucasians showed the highest prevalence of Class II in permanent dentition (23%) and mixed dentition (26%). Class III malocclusion in mixed dentition was highly prevalent among Mongoloids. Conclusion: Worldwide, in mixed and permanent dentitions, Angle Class I malocclusion is more prevalent than Class II, specifically among Africans; the least prevalent was Class III, although higher among Mongoloids in mixed dentition. In vertical dimension, open bite was highest among Mongoloids in mixed dentition. Posterior crossbite was more prevalent in permanent dentition in Europe.

ABSTRACT Objective: To describe the challenges of family caregivers of children with special needs of multiple, complex and continuing care at home. Methods: Qualitative study based on the theoretical framework of the Patient and Family-Centerd Care (PFCC). We interviewed eleven family caregivers from 13 children enrolled in a special school in the Brazilian city of Maringá (PR). The data were subject to content analysis, thematic modality. Results: The main challenges identified are the lack of preparation for home care, the difficulty of access and follow-up in Primary Health Care services, and the difficulty of including the child in social interaction. However, caregivers react positively to these adversities. Conclusions and implications for practice: The nurses need the necessary training to transcend hospital technical care and to develop a care practice based on family-centerd care, considering this as a protagonist, including it in the process for the quality of life of these children.

Published: February 2019

Abstract Objective: To analyze the intraurban spatial distribution of perinatal mortality, its avoidability, and relationship with socioeconomic indicators in Recife, Pernambuco, Brazil, in the period from 2013 to 2015. Method: An ecological study with data from the Information Systems on Mortality and Live Births and the Brazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics, using neighborhoods as the analysis unit. We elaborated an indicator of social deprivation formed by variables from the demographic census. We estimated the Kernel density of the deaths and calculated the Moran index of the perinatal mortality coefficients in the spatial analysis. We elaborated thematic maps of avoidable perinatal mortality and social deprivation. Results: The global statistical analysis of the mortality distribution indicated evidence of spatial aggregation. Moran's index was 0.18. We found clusters of perinatal mortality in neighborhoods of the Central, North, Northwest, and South Regions. In the North, Northwest, Southwest, and South Regions we identified neighborhoods with greater social deprivation and avoidable mortality coefficients. The primary cause of death was of fetuses and newborns affected by hypertensive maternal disorders. Conclusion: We demonstrated intraurban differentials in perinatal mortality among neighborhoods. The stratification of the urban space according to the social deprivation indicator presented a relation with the perinatal mortality and its avoidability.

Published: February 2019

ABSTRACT Objective: analyze income and work conditions of nurses in Brazil in 2000 and 2010. Methods: based on demographic census samples, socioeconomic characteristics of nurses were described according to income and work hours. Statistic models estimated the chances (odds ratios) of nurses having lower income despite working more than 40 hours per week. Results: the nurse population in Brazil grew at a rate of 12.5% per year. In the two study periods, approximately 11.0% of nurses received the lowest incomes and worked more than 40 hours per week. The most pronounced chances of belonging to this group were observed for those residing in the interior the South and Southeast regions of Brazil. They were also more elevated for nurses whose color/race was black or brown (pardo) and who lived with their parents. Conclusion and implications for the practice: the expressive increase in nurses occurred within the context of reduced socioeconomic inequalities. Less favorable work conditions were most evident for those classified as black and brown who lived in their parents’ homes. We argue that the scenarios described may be related to the expansion of university educational institutions during the first decade of the twenty-first century, among other aspects.

Abstract Objective: evaluate the quality of life of patients with Chronic Kidney Disease on peritoneal dialysis using the KDQOL-SF tool. Method: quantitative-qualitative approach, carried out in August 2017 with 10 patients undergoing peritoneal dialysis followed-up at a clinic specialized in Renal Replacement Therapy. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews; later transcribed and submitted to Content Analysis, as well as the application of the Kidney Disease and Quality of Life Short-Form (KDQOL-SF) questionnaire. Results: from the analysis emerged three thematic categories with impacts on the social dimension: Kidney disease as stigma impacting on social relations; Family support as support for overcoming social stigma; and Changes in Daily Living Activities and their repercussions on the social dimension. Conclusion and implications for practice: the participants demonstrated that their Quality of Life has been affected with greater intensity in the social dimension. Identifying such a condition may allow the planning of nursing care with a comprehensive view and meeting the social dimension.

Abstract Objective: To compare the effect of the use of the simulation strategy combined to theory with the simulation, per se, on the gain of self-confidence in nursing professionals during the management of the patient in cardiopulmonary arrest. Method: Quasi-experimental study with pre and post-tests, quantitative approach. Convenience sample composed of 53 professionals, divided into a control and experimental groups. The strategy was the intervention. A structured questionnaire and the satisfaction and self-confidence scale were used for data collection. Results with p≤0.05 were considered significant. Results: Professionals were predominantly young (33.2 ± 6.5 years) and females (84.9%). In the experimental group there was no significant difference (p=0.1 vs p=0.4), but self-confidence increased significantly among the professionals in the experimental group in relation to the control (p=0.007 vs p=0.06). Conclusion: The level of self-confidence of the nursing professionals for patient care in cardiopulmonary arrest improved significantly after using the combined simulation theory.

RESUMO A diversidade de macroal gas lóticas tem sido pouco estudada no Brasil. Levantamentos florísticos não têm sido publicados, gerando um déficit de informações sobre a ecologia e taxonomia desses grupos. Sendo assim, o presente trabalho teve como objetivo realizar o levantamento de espécies de macroalgas de riachos da Serra do Japi, uma área de Floresta Estacional Semidecidual (23º12’- 23º21’ S e 46º30’-46º05’ W). Foram amostrados 16 riachos e foram identificados 16 táxons (11 infragenéricos, 4 genéricos e um estágio de vida, ‘Chantransia’), distribuídos em quatro divisões. Cyanobacteria foi o grupo melhor representado, com cerca de 38% das espécies, seguido de Rhodophyta com aproximadamente 31% dos táxons amostrados. O estágio esporofí- tico ‘Chantransia’ e Phormidium aerugineocaeruleum foram os táxons os mais bem distribuídos, ocorrendo em 50% e 29% dos pontos investigados, respectivamente. O conhecimento sobre a composição e ocorrência das espécies de macroalgas pode trazer informações valiosas para a tomada de decisões sobre a conservação de recursos hídricos, particularmente em áreas protegidas como a Serra do Japi.

ABSTRACT Flowers with heterodynamous stamens can present differences in the pollen grains of each stamen size group. Species of Aeschynomene L. present didynamous stamens (five long and five short) but little is known about their pollen dimorphism. The objective of this study was to increase the knowledge about the pollen characteristics in Aeschynomene and emphasize the possible morphological differences between the pollen grains of long and short stamens in order to contribute to ecological and taxonomic studies. Pollen grains from the two groups of stamens size of ten species were analyzed separately, according to the standard methodology for studies of pollen morphology. In addition, analyses of variance, comparison of means and base index were performed. The results showed that the amb, shape, endoaperture type and sexine ornamentation did not vary in the pollen grains of the long and short stamens in the same specimen, but they varied among the species. However, in relation to the size of the pollen grains of the two groups of stamens, four species presented significant differences regarding the size of the polar and equatorial axes. The pollen morphological data obtained considering the heteromorphism of the stamens can contribute to the knowledge of the repro ductive dynamics of the genus, and to the systematic studies.

ABSTRACT The aim of this study was to evaluate the in vitro germination of zygotic embryos and seeds of Caesalpinia ferrea Martius and the morphogenetic responses of the explants to different concentrations of growth regulators. Seeds and zygotic embryos were inoculated in MS culture medium and kept in a growth room at a temperature of 25 ± 2 ºC for 16 hours of photoperiod for 30 days. The seeds had a higher in vitro germination rate than the explants from zygotic embryos. However, zygotic embryos in MS medium supplemented with 0.9 mg L-1 BAP had the highest percentage of regeneration (50%), number of shoots (3.25), buds (2.85) and leaves (3.15), multiplication rate (27.75), and length of shoots (1.96 cm). The in vitro culture of zygotic embryos and seeds made possible the multiplication of a higher number of healthy seedlings. Thus, it can be used as an alternative technique for the propagation of this species.

RESUMO O Estágio de Docência (ED) é entendido como um componente curricular promotor da inter-relação entre teoria e prática pedagógica, capaz de aproximar o pós-graduando das atividades de ensino. Nesse contexto, os objetivos desse estudo foram: 1) avaliar a percepção dos discentes sobre as contribuições do ED desenvolvido pelo Programa de Pós-graduação em Biodiversidade Vegetal e Meio Ambiente do Instituto de Botânica (PPGIBt) para o exercício da docência no ensino superior; 2) investigar a percepção dos docentes do PPGIBt sobre a importância dos componentes relacionados à prática pedagógica na formação dos pós-graduandos. Questionários eletrônicos foram respondidos por 21 discentes (matriculados no ED entre 2010-2015) e 18 docentes do PPGIBt. Embora os grupos investigados citem que o PPGIBt valoriza a pesquisa em relação ao ensino da prática docente, existe o reconhecimento da importância do componente docência para a formação e atuação profissional no ensino de nível superior. Embora solicitações e sugestões de aprimoramento do ED no PPGIBt tenham sido levantadas, em termos gerais, esse modelo parece ser produtivo para a construção coletiva da prática docente no ensino superior e tem suscitado reflexões sobre a futura atuação profissional e a contribuição social da pesquisa que cada discente desenvolve.
