The problem of overweight and obesity is one of the most urgent health issues in the world. 13% of girls and 21% of boys aged 11 suffer from overweight in the Russian Federation.The main causes of pubertal obesity are endocrine pathology, lifestyle and genetic disorders including mutation and polymorphisms of different metabolic pathways. Leptin produced in adipose tissue participates in reproduction regula-tion, glucose homeostasis, bone formation, etc. These effects are provided by leptin receptors coding LEPR gene. Q223R (rs1137101) polymorphism is associated with an increased serum level of leptin and overweight. There is no exact information about association between this polymorphism and obesity of adolescent females. The objective was to reveal LEPR Q223R polymorphism association between overweight and obesity in adolescent females.123 Caucasian adolescent females were involved in this study. All samples could be separated into two groups: the girls with normal weight (SDS BMI ±1.0; controlgroup), girls with overweight and obesity (SDS BMI≥ +1.0–2.0; studied group). Anthropometric measurements (weight, height, waist and hip circumference, body fat percentage) were taken, and genotyping was performed using polymerase chain reaction with electrophoresis detection.G-allele frequency was 43.1% in control and 40% in the clinical group. We found no significant differences of the prev-alence of polymorphism Q223Rbetween the studied groups (р=0,862). Furthermore, there was no association between the carriage of AG and GG with weight, BMI, body fat percentage, waist and hip circumference in both groups (р> 0.05).We have not found any association between LEPR Q223R and overweight and obesity in adolescent females.

The goal of this work was the assessment of capability for multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) in the diag-nostics of retroperitoneal tumors in children. We studied the results of multidetector computed tomography of 63sick children (36 boys (58%) and 27 girls (42%)) between the ages of 1 month to 16 years, from 2012 to 2015. The aver-age age of the patients was 4.9±4.5 years, with a predominance of boys (2:1.4). Among retroperitoneal tumors in children most often we found neuroblastoma (50.8%): in 38.1% it was detected in boys, in 12.7% – in girls (p<0.05). Nephroblastoma was detected in 10%, the other retroperitoneal tumors accounted for 40%. In 56% neuroblastoma was located at the upper level of retroperitoneal space. In 44% tumors localized in para-aortic area, in paravertebral space or in the pelvis. Neuroblastomas on MDCT scans were presented by heterogeneous formations, unevenly accumu-lating contrast. In 62% of cases we detected calcifications, in 19% we observed cysts and in 56% of cases there were metastatic involvements detected. Thus, the MDCT is a method able to accurately specify the localization of the tumor, to clarify the character and volume of destruction, to determine the exact size of a tumor and its relationship with the surrounding tissues, as well as to reveal metastatic lesions in the abdominal cavity and in other organs.

The objective assessment of status of intraocular fluid outflow pathways after fistulizing antiglaucomatous surgery is a necessary efficacy prediction component of glaucoma surgery. Based on complex assessment of operative zone, includ-ing ultrasound biomicroscopy, at different dates after non-penetrating deep sclerotomy the attempt of development of clinical classification of fluid outflow pathways was made. The basis of this classification is sign of morphological heterogeneity of the examined structures. In the study the parameters of the functional state of the trabeculae-Descemet’s membrane were determined: the height 0.8±0.09mm, thickness 0.09±0.004mm and acoustic density <55±10%; timelines of sclerosis – 1–1.5months after surgery. This was the rationale for the principle of a two-stage non-penetrating deep sclerectomy and indica-tion for laser descemetogoniopuncture in terms of 1–1.5months after the operation in the absolute number of cases. Postoperative UBM monitoring allowed determining the period of active remodeling of newly formed intraocular fluid outflow pathways in norm and their pathological formation – 6months after the intervention. Developed system of assessment of surgically formed fluid outflow pathways by proposed method allows monitor dynamics of fluid outflow pathways forming, standardize results and determine choice of further treatment.

The importance and the need to establish standards for the quality of life for HIV-infected patients with eye diseases were proved. The scheme of follow-up of ophthalmic patients with HIV infection was created; it allows identifying the relationship between the organ of vision and quality of life of infected patients. An algorithm of examination of patients with a combination of HIV infection and ophthalmological pathology was developed. It is proved that with the growth of the severity of internal organ involvement in HIV-infected patients a decrease in quality of life occurs pro rata, par-ticularly in patients in 3–4th stages of HIV infection associated with atrophy of the optic nerve, uveitis, retinitis. It was established that on the background of an effective anti-viral and vascular therapy of HIV-infected patients there is a positive dynamics of vision in patients with retinal angiopathies.

The purpose of the study was to identify the relationship between the initial state of the organism and the result of the treatment of hypertrophic scars. 38women of 16–35years of age were examined on the 5–7th days of the menstrual cycle, 16 of them had normotrophic scars and 22 – hypertrophic scars. The quality of scars, lipid profile, the concen-tration of thyrotropin, free fraction of thyroxine, growth hormone (GH), luteinizing and follicle stimulating hormone (FSH), cortisol, prolactin, estradiol, testosterone, progesterone , the concentration of TNF-α, IL-4, IL-6, IL-10, and the level of autoantibodies to DNA, IFN-α , IFN-γ, b2-glycoprotein, Fc-fragments, collagen-2 were determined. Further on the laser treatment was performed: the scar surface was treated by multiple perforations under local anesthesia. Treatment outcome was assessed in 3months by the clinical characteristics of the scar. It was found that in 10women hypertrophic scars reformed in normotrophic scars after the treatment, and 12women still had hypertrophic scars. Patients with a positive result of treatment had a low concentration of GH (0.5±0.1) and high concentrations of proges-terone (6.0±0.4) and FSH (6.7±0.5 in the follicular phase of the cycle). The negative result of the treatment obtained in patients with significant shifts reactivity indicators: high atherogenic index (2.6±0.2) and the level of GH (2.1±0.5), low levels of cortisol (346.8±39), testosterone (1.5±0.2), IL-10 (3.89±1.6) and antibodies to IFN-γ (0.206±0.05), IFN-α (0.385±0.02), Fc-fragments (0.317±0.04).

1249children of 5–10years (716boys, 533girls) with consequences of perinatal lesions of the CNS were examined, 230 of them were treated with the transcranial magnetic stimulation method (TMS). Selection of the TMS regimens was carried out taking into account the specific clinical neurophysiological features of the patients both as monotherapy, as well as a part of complex neurorehabilitation. For example, when intensifying of the synchronizing influences of tha-lamic structures and EEG signs of a delay of formation of electrical cortical rhythmicity, in children with developmental dysphasia and difficulties of school training, a high-pitched stimulation in the projection of the sensomotor and speech zones of a cerebral cortex was chosen; when intensifying of desynchronization influences of a reticular formation of a brainstem; at motor type of a developmental dysphasia and clinical signs of ADHD syndrome, a low-frequency regimen of stimulation of front-parietal and central areas of a cerebral cortex were chosen. Efficiency of therapy within 55–60% concerning indicators of the speech sphere and the psychological status is reached at sessions of TMS together with correctional occupations with auxiliary specialists of the rehabilitation center – speech pathologists and psychologists. Efficiency of monotherapy of TMS in children with retardation of psycho-speech development made 30–35%. Sufficient clinical performance and safety of the technique, a possibility of holding sessions of TMS against the background of course neuroprotective therapy at children with cerebral palsy is shown.

Purpose: To evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of modified SMILE surgery for mild myopia. Methods: The study involved 68patients (135eyes), operated by SMILE methods for mild myopia. The first group included patients operated by standard technology with a 15μm thickness of neural optical lenticular layer, the second group – patients, operated by a modified SMILE technology monolayer with thickness of 30μm. A comprehensive ophthalmology examination was performed before the surgery and after the surgical treatment – on the following day, in one month and in 12 months. Results: In all patients of both groups the monocular uncorrected visual acuity after the operation after the period of one day, one month, and a year did not differ and made 0.88±0.15, 0.92±0.1 and 0.95±0.08 respectively, for the second group – 0.87±0.18, 0.92±0.15 and 0.96±0.10 (p≥0.05). Follow-up in the early and late postoperative period convincingly demonstrated that visual acuity, refraction, spatial sensitivity, corneal hysteresis indices and even a subjective assessment of visual quality have no statistically significant differences among patients in both groups. During the operation and late postoperative period the complications were not noted. Conclusion: the study found that the modified technology provides high visual acuity, while minimally changing the biomechanical properties of the cornea. Thus, a modified SMILE operation is highly predictable and safe method in correction of slight degree myopia

The purpose of the investigation was to clarify the importance of gender factor in the clinical picture of recurrent (RD) and bipolar depression (BD) with somatization. Total of 99patients had taken part in the testing including 70(70.7%) women and 39(39.3%) men. The general trend identified was intensive anxious and somatized signs in clinical structure of depression. In comparison with the men the female patients with RD had predominantly “psychic” and “physical” signs of anxiety, and men had more “typical” traits (depressive somatization). In the clinical picture of BD gender differentiation had shown the signs of anxiety again. In other words, the women with BD had mostly the signs of “mental” anxiety and neurosal (phobic anxiety and hysterical conversion) somatized signs, while male patients with BD more often had vegetal equivalents of anxiety (anxiety disorder) making hypochondriac ideational abnormalities (ideational somatization) in combination with physical signs of depression. In both testing groups women had the common traits – frequent complaints about paracenesthesia over extended periods (SSI); it can show some inclination to formation of a morbid personality, exacerbating a patient’s condition. The findings indicate that gender differentiation expresses mainly in bipolar course of an affective disease in the clinical picture of somatized depression. The study outcome suggests the improvement of diagnostics and somatized depression treatment.

Hyperglycemia and dyslipidemia are common metabolic abnormalities in adults with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) and both increase cardiovascular disease risk. Normalization of lipid metabolism is a mandatory element in preven-tion of diabetic micro- and macroangiopathies in patients with T1DM and it is directly related to improvement of health outcome. We aimed to investigate serum lipid profiles in patients with T1DM and poor glycemic control. Among observed patients with T1DM, 76% were classified as having dyslipidemia, dyslipidemia rate was higher in patients with diabetic microangiopathies. Patients with T1DM and microvascular complications, arterial hypertension (AH) and the level of glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) >8% had significantly higher levels of total cholesterol (TC), very low density lipoproteins (VLDL), triglycerides (TG) and non-high density lipoproteins (non-HDL). Therefore, management of patients with T1DM at the outpatient stage requires a strict control of lipid metabolism.

We analyzed the results of surgical treatment of 42patients (42eyes) with neovascular glaucoma on the background of proliferative diabetic retinopathy. Intravitreal injections of anti-VEGF-drugs allow to remove newly formed vessels in anterior chamber angle, to reduce intraocular pressure, to avoid complications in patients with neovascular glaucoma and the closed anterior chamber angle of the eye. The second stage of the treatment can be laser surgery. This approach helped to reduce intraocular pressure from 28.9±0.9 to 18.5±0.9mmHg on the background of medical treatment (t>2.0; p<0.05). Visual acuity increased from 0.23±0.07 to 0.44±0.08 (t>2.0; p<0.05).In patients with NVG and closed anterior chamber angle of the eye, having aching glaucoma the use of laser surgery as the first stage of treatment allows to reduce intraocular pressure and to eliminate pain, and to apply intravitreal anti-VEGF-therapy as the second stage. The mean value of IOP decreased from 30.9±1.2 to 20.1±1.1mmHg. During the year period, the second stage (intravitreal introduction of Lucentis) was performed in all patients. As a result, IOP was reduced to 17.5±0.09mmHg. Visual acuity increased from 0.18±0.1 to 0.25±0.07 (p>0.05).

Sixty patients at the age of 43 to 79 years with anxiodepressive symptoms with comorbid cardiovascular disease have been examined after admission to psychotherapeutic department. Patients have been divided into two groups. The first group including 30patients were treated by the tricyclic antidepressant amitriptyline with the average daily dose of 34.4±12.9mg. The 30 patients from the second group were treated by antidepressants of the selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors group. The sociodemographic characteristics in both groups did not differ significantly; the sever-ity of cardiovascular disease, additional somatic and other diseases were certainty lower in the first group than in the second (p<0.05). Examination of the patients with the use of Hamilton Depression Rating Scale and Hamilton Anxiety Rating Scale (HDRS and HARS) was carried out three times: at admission, in 1 week and in 4 weeks. At the time of admission, anxiety and depression in the first group were more expressed (p<0.05) than in the second due to frequent psychogeny. The treatment scheme included tranquilizers, neuroleptics, neurometabolic drugs, basic cardiotropic therapy and psychotherapy. After 4 weeks anxiodepressive symptoms were more than 50% reduced in both groups: 61% in the first group and 50.7% in the second group by the HDRC scale; 65.9% in the first group and 59.8% in the second group by the HARS scale. It has been shown that the small doses of antidepressant including amitriptyline involved in the complex treatment scheme were efficient and did not cause cardiotoxic effect

Coping Responses in Phishing Detection: An Investigation of Antecedents and Consequences
Authors: Wang Jingguo , Li Yuan , Rao H. Raghav
Published: April 2017

This study investigates users’ coping responses in the process of phishing email detection. Three common responses are identified based on the coping literature: task-focused coping, emotion-focused coping (i.e., worry and self-criticism), and avoidance coping. The three responses are used to conceptualize a higher-order construct, coping adaptiveness, that resides on a continuum between maladaptive coping and adaptive coping (manifested as increased task-focused coping and decreased emotion-focused coping and avoidance coping). Drawing on the extended parallel process model and behavioral decision-making literature, this paper examines the antecedents (i.e., perceived phishing threat, perceived detection efficacy, and phishing anxiety) and behavioral consequences (i.e., detection effort and detection accuracy) of coping adaptiveness. A survey experiment with 547 U.S. consumers was conducted. The results show that perceived detection efficacy increases coping adaptiveness. Partially mediated by phishing anxiety, perceived phishing threat decreases coping adaptiveness. Coping adaptiveness positively impacts the two objective measures in the study, detection effort and detection accuracy. The results also suggest that coping adaptiveness and detection effort have different effects on false positives compared to false negatives: detection effort fully mediates the effect of coping adaptiveness on false positive rate (or detection accuracy related to legitimate emails), but has no impact on false negatives (or detection accuracy related to phishing emails), unlike coping adaptiveness. A post hoc analysis on coping responses reveals two patterns of coping among subjects, throwing more light on coping in phishing detection. Theoretical and practical implications are discussed.

Asimilación y diferencia a través de los patrimonios nupciales de los moriscos y los cristianos viejos, (Ciudad Real, 1570-1610)
Authors: Moreno Díaz del Campo Francisco Javier
Published: April 2017

La historiografía ha demostrado que en las sociedades preindustriales el proceso de constitución de una nueva familia no solo llevaba aparejadas connotaciones de tipo biológico y social, sino también de orden económico y cultural. El estudio de los contratos matrimoniales otorgados ante notario por moriscos y cristianos viejos permite al autor analizar la configuración de las haciendas de los miembros de uno y otro colectivo. De igual manera, presta especial atención al análisis de la estructura y formación del ajuar femenino, pues es aquí donde se observan más diferencias en el plano cultural. Se pretende así poner de relieve la importancia del hogar como un espacio construido desde lo material, aspecto que en el caso de los moriscos conducirá a tratar tanto su proceso de adaptación a los usos sociales y culturales de los cristianos viejos como el mantenimiento de su herencia islámica.
The Concordance of Parent and Child Immunization
Authors: Robison Steve G. , Osborn Andrew W.
Published: April 2017

BACKGROUND:

A substantial body of work has related survey-based parental vaccine hesitancy to noncompliant childhood immunization. However little attention has been paid to the connection between parents’ own immunization behavior and the immunizations their children receive.

METHODS:

Using the Oregon ALERT Immunization Information System, we identified adult caregiver–child pairs for children between 9 months and 17 years of age. The likelihood of adult–child concordance of influenza immunization per influenza season from 2010–2011 through 2014–2015 was assessed. The utility of adult immunization as a predictor was also assessed for other, noninfluenza recommended immunizations for children and adolescents.

RESULTS:

A total of 450 687 matched adult caregiver–child pairs were included in the study. The children of immunizing adults were 2.77 times more likely to also be immunized for seasonal influenza across all seasons (95% confidence interval, 2.74–2.79), with similar results applying within each season. Adult immunization status was also significantly associated with the likelihood of children and adolescents getting other noninfluenza immunizations, such as the human papillomavirus vaccine (HPV). When adults improved their own behavior from nonimmunizing to immunizing across influenza seasons, their children if not immunized in the previous season were 5.44 times (95% confidence interval, 5.35–5.53) more likely to become immunized for influenza.

CONCLUSIONS:

Children’s likelihood of following immunization recommendations is associated with the immunization behavior of their parents. Encouraging parental immunization is a potential tool for increasing children’s immunization rates.

ABSTRACT Pequi (Caryocar brasiliense Camb.) pulp is rich in bioactive compounds. However, seasonality and perishability limit its availability in the market. This work aimed to determine the physicochemical characteristics, including phenolic compounds and carotenoid concentrations, as well as the antioxidant capacity of lyophilized pequi pulp during storage in various packaging materials for 180 days. Pequi fruits were pulped, ground, freeze-dried and then vacuum packaged in transparent polyethylene (TP), polyethylene coated by aluminum foil (PA) and laminated foil (LA), respectively. The samples were stored under controlled temperature, humidity and luminosity. Proximate composition, phenolic compounds and carotenoids concentrations, and antioxidant capacity (DPPH• assay) were determined at the beginning of the study and the end of each month, during 180 days. Lyophilized pequi pulp had 48.87, 6.17, and 4.20 g.100 g-1 lipids, proteins, and total dietary fiber, respectively, and 556.79 kcal.100 g-1 energy. PA and LA had similar effects against light-induced carotenoid oxidation. Negative correlations between the phenolic compound concentration and storage period, and antioxidant capacity and storage period; and a positive correlation between antioxidant capacity and phenolic compound content were observed. Light-resistant packaging decreased the carotenoid loss. Among the packaging, LA preserved the phenolic compounds and antioxidant capacity most effectively.
Pathogenicity of Corynespora cassiicola on different hosts in Amazonas State, Brazil
Authors: Ferreira Ana Francisca Tibúrcia Amorim Ferreira e , Bentes Jânia Lília da Silva
Published: April 2017

ABSTRACT Target spot, caused by the fungus Corynespora cassiicola, occurs endemically in Amazonas State, leading to reduced production in several crops. This study evaluated the pathogenicity of C. cassiicola isolates in tomato, eggplant and papaya. Isolates were obtained from crop areas in the cities of Manaus, Iranduba and Presidente Figueiredo in Amazonas State. The disease severity was assessed, as well as the number and the diameter of lesions. Experimental design was completely randomized in a factorial arrangement of 9x3x3 (9 isolates, 3 areas and 3 hosts) and 3 replicates. Papaya isolates caused symptoms in all evaluated plant species, and a certain degree of specificity was demonstrated for eggplant and tomato isolates, which did not cause disease in papaya. Severity was higher in tomato plants. The isolates obtained from Iranduba were most aggressive, suggesting that the geographic origin influenced the aggressiveness of isolates.

Published: April 2017

Resumo O presente trabalho analisa as características principais das frentes frias causadoras de chuvas intensas no litoral do Estado de Santa Catarina, com a finalidade de melhorar o conhecimento e a previsão desse tipo de situação. Para isso, foi feita uma climatologia sinótica das frentes frias, utilizando reanálises CFSR do NCEP e dados de precipitação do CPTEC/INPE no período 1998-2010, a partir dos quais foram separados 5% das frentes frias mais chuvosas da série. Os resultados mostram que as frentes frias que provocam chuvas mais volumosas ocorrem ao longo de todo o ano, associadas à penetração de cavados frios, intensos e pouco baroclínicos nos níveis médios e altos da atmosfera. A lenta evolução da situação meteorológica permite a intensificação de um cavado na baixa troposfera, que provoca a gradativa intensificação da instabilidade termodinâmica sobre o leste de Santa Catarina, através da advecção de calor e umidade desde a Amazônia. A frente fria que dispara a precipitação apresenta forte inclinação nos baixos níveis e lento deslocamento. Em geral, a situação meteorológica apresenta poucas variações sazonais e pode ser identificada, em média, com pelo menos 48 h de antecedência.

Published: April 2017

Resumo O entendimento do ciclo hidrológico auxilia no processo de planejamento dos recursos hídricos, em projetos de obras hidráulicas e estudos ambientais. Neste trabalho foi realizada a avaliação dos parâmetros hidrometeorológicos e a quantificação do volume de água em cada uma das principais fases do ciclo hidrológico, permitindo a proposição de um modelo de circulação da água na bacia hidrográfica do rio Sorocaba-SP. Os parâmetros foram estimados com base na equação do balanço hídrico, nos dados históricos de chuva, temperatura e vazão da rede hidrometeorológica existente e nas informações dos processos de outorga de concessão de uso dos recursos hídricos. Considerando-se que a vazão média anual no exutório da bacia acrescida da vazão consumida corresponde ao excedente hídrico do balanço, a diferença entre o valor estimado e o observado foi inferior a 10%. A vazão média anual no exutório da bacia somada a vazão consumida foi 63,9 m3 s-1, o que corresponde à 25% do volume de chuva anual média. O excedente hídrico estimado foi de 56,5 m3 s-1, a ETP 1.011 mm ano-1 e a ETR 999 mm ano-1, adotando-se uma CAD de 25 mm. Essas informações contribuem para o planejamento do uso dos recursos hídricos na bacia.

Published: April 2017

ABSTRACT Objetive: to problematize the home care proposed by the Melhor em Casa Program as a safety device for understanding knowledge and conditions of possibility that support its discoursive network. Method: it is a study of genealogical inspiration about home care. The empirical material was constituted by legal documents about the theme, published in the Diário Oficial. The extracts that supposingly had the power to extract truth were organized in a spreadsheet. The analytic units were constructed, and instruments proposed by Foucault, such as power, biopolitics and device, were used for document analysis. Results: two analytic categories were elaborated: "From hospital to home", and "Home care: safety for the patient or for the State?". Conclusion: Home care, as a security device, proposes home as a safer and better place for the patient, who is close to the family, with no risk of hospital infection, cared by the health team, with the necessary technology.

ABSTRACT Objective: to present the theoretical perspective of Imre Lakatos, from its Methodology of Scientific Research Programs, and its epistemological evaluation of the Brazilian Postgraduate Nursing Program. Method: It is a reflexive analysis, organized into three sections, with the following question: Can the theoretical-philosophical proposition by Imre Lakatos contribute to assess to the Brazilian Postgraduate Nursing Program? Discussion: It is assumed that nursing care as a theoretical hypothesis; it presents the basic elements of lakatosian program: the hard core, the protective belt, negative and positive heuristics and its application for evaluation of Brazilian Postgraduate Nursing Program. Program researchers must define and establish the lakatosian basic elements. After 43 years of the creation of the stricto sensu postgraduate programs in Brazil, a critical analysis of its epistemological foundation is necessary. Conclusion: the amplification of the evaluation process from the link between quantitative and philosophical in order to judge the Nursing Science is recommended.
Engenheiras na construção civil: a feminização possível e a discriminação de gênero
Authors: Lombardi Maria Rosa
Published: April 2017

RESUMO Este artigo discute os desafios do processo de feminização em um segmento específico da construção civil, edificações habitacionais. Pesquisa recente trouxe indícios da imbricação das práticas de assédio moral e de gênero na construção da identidade profissional do/a engenheiro/a de obras. Submetidos/as a organização e condições de trabalho peculiares, desde cedo, os/as engenheiros/as de obra encaram os tratamentos rudes e desrespeitosos recebidos de colegas e chefes como parte integrante da sua formação prática. Em geral, esses padrões de conduta são aceitos como normais e não como assédio moral. Para as engenheiras, acresce-se o assédio de gênero, configurado por meio de situações explícitas de discriminação e de violência, que tendem a influenciar negativamente a sua maior inserção nos canteiros de obra.

Authors: Castro Mary Garcia , Abramovay Miriam
Published: April 2017

RESUMO O artigo analisa uma política de inclusão social, a saber, as Salas de Acolhimento e sua relação com o Projovem Urbano (Programa Nacional de Inclusão de Jovens). Discutimos que tal política remete ao debate contemporâneo sobre a economia do cuidar, em especial quanto à recorrência a uma força de trabalho feminina a baixo custo, que mobilizaria afetos e serviços similares aos domésticos, ou seja, “trabalho de mulher”, mas com singularidades próprias, já que envolve também preocupações com profissionalização, via educação infantil. O presente estudo baseia-se em pesquisas realizadas em 15 municípios brasileiros, entre 2013 e 2015, sobre as Salas de Acolhimento, que atendem a crianças de zero a oito anos, filhos de jovens estudantes do Projovem Urbano, facilitando sua participação nesse programa. Conjugam-se análises empíricas com debates contemporâneos sobre economia do cuidar e gênero.

Published: April 2017

RESUMO Este texto apresenta o perfil de mulheres residentes no estado de São Paulo, mães de crianças na faixa etária de zero a três anos, estabelecendo comparação entre aquelas cujos filhos estão matriculados em instituições de educação infantil - EI - e aquelas que não contam com esse serviço, de modo a discutir o papel social dessas unidades. Utilizou-se, como fonte de dados, o Censo Demográfico de 2010 e foram selecionadas as variáveis referentes ao perfil geral (idade, cor/raça, escolaridade), vida familiar (arranjo familiar, posição na família), vida profissional e renda (ocupação, renda per capita). O estudo reafirma fenômenos referentes a desigualdades sociais que se aprofundam nas relações de gênero e raça/cor, explicitando essas diferenças em termos de acesso a instituições de EI.

Published: April 2017

ABSTRACT: The relief of the regions of Manaus and Itacoatiara, Central Amazon, is supported by Neogene siliciclastic rocks, bounded at the base and top by lateritic paleosols and covered by quaternary sedimentary deposits from the Solimões-Amazon river system. This unit is informally assigned to the Novo Remanso Formation, consists of usually reddish and ferruginized sandstones, conglomerates and pelites, with few identified fossil records, a fact that has hindered its stratigraphic position, and the paleoenvironmental reconstruction of the last phase of the Amazon Basin settling. This study describes, for the first time, the occurrence of fossil wood in outcroppings of the left bank of the Amazon River, where anatomical and morphological data has enabled its characterization to the species level. Thus, the data marks the record of the Annonaceae in South America, as well as the depositional processes related to incorporation of organic material in the sandy layer and the fossilization processes that allowed its preservation. In an unprecedented way, this study has described Duguetiaxylon amazonicum nov. gen and sp. and provided information on the anatomical and systematic character, as well as data on plant-insect interaction, and a better understanding of the family.
RELAÇÕES DE GÊNERO EM CATÁLOGOS DE BRINQUEDOS: (CONTRA)INDICAÇÕES PARA O BRINCAR
Authors: Kropeniscki Fernanda Battagli , Perurena Fátima Cristina Vieira
Published: April 2017

RESUMO: Este artigo buscou discutir as relações de gênero retratadas nos catálogos de brinquedos de uma Empresa X, localizada na Região Sul do Brasil, no período de 2009 a 2015. A partir de uma análise das imagens apresentadas nos catálogos, foram constatadas mudanças e permanências na produção e oferta de brinquedos. Inicialmente direcionados para meninas ou meninos, os brinquedos ofertados demarcavam limites para o feminino e para o masculino. Quando todos os brinquedos passaram a ser indicados para elas e para eles, um binarismo camuflado foi mantido e a problemática das cores entrou em cena. Diante desse cenário, considera-se que, em meio às transformações já ocorridas nas relações de gênero, a produção e a oferta de brinquedos também vêm se modificando, porém, a passos lentos.

ABSTRACT Objectives: The objectives of this presentation are to analyze the kinematics that causes this association, describe the impact of the injury, and evaluate the treatment performed Methods: Three cases are analyzed by quantifying the displacement and angulation of the sternum, the characteristics of the spinal injury and deformity, treatment, and complications Results: The mechanism that causes the injury is flexion-distraction, the component of the vertebral body presented is type A, and the most affected region was T5. Two patients had neurological picture E. Sternum injury was caused by direct trauma Conclusion: The association of these was observed in patients who have suffered from high-energy trauma in a car accident. There was no relationship between the angulation of the sternum and its displacement to the degree of kyphosis and displacement of the thoracic spine. It is important to carry out good radiographic studies that include the sternum when there is suspicion of this relationship.

ABSTRACT Objective: Tomographic and anatomic analysis of cervical vertebrae in children from 0 to 12 years of age to verify the possibility of utilization of lateral mass screws. Methods: Twenty-five cervical spine tomographies of children between 0 and 12 years of age, admitted to the emergency room of Hospital das Clínicas of São Paulo were retrospectively analyzed. The following distances were measured: width and length of the lateral masses in the axial section; width and height in the coronal section; height, length and diagonal diameter in the sagittal section. The variables studied were correlated with age and sex and submitted to statistical analysis. Results: The analysis of tomographic measurements of 20 patients showed a correlation between age and dimensions of the lateral mass, which were higher after 6 years of age. In relation to sex, greater measures were observed in males in all axes. With regard to the passage of the screws, we only had 22 masses (11%) that prevented their use. However, when stratified by age, we noticed that no patients had restrictions on the use of the lateral mass screw after the age of 6. Conclusion: This study analyzed the measurements of 200 lateral masses, making it possible to infer that there is an increase of dimensions with age and in males. Through the data, it was possible to affirm that in this sample, considering the implants available in the market, the lateral mass screws could be used in 89% of the lateral masses.
OUTLIER DETECTION IN PARTIAL ERRORS-IN-VARIABLES MODEL
Authors: ZHAO JUN , GUI QINGMING
Published: April 2017

The weighed total least square (WTLS) estimate is very sensitive to the outliers in the partial EIV model. A new procedure for detecting outliers based on the data-snooping is presented in this paper. Firstly, a two-step iterated method of computing the WTLS estimates for the partial EIV model based on the standard LS theory is proposed. Secondly, the corresponding w-test statistics are constructed to detect outliers while the observations and coefficient matrix are contaminated with outliers, and a specific algorithm for detecting outliers is suggested. When the variance factor is unknown, it may be estimated by the least median squares (LMS) method. At last, the simulated data and real data about two-dimensional affine transformation are analyzed. The numerical results show that the new test procedure is able to judge that the outliers locate in x component, y component or both components in coordinates while the observations and coefficient matrix are contaminated with outliers

A utilização do laser terrestre para levantamentos em povoamentos florestais tem como objetivo prover dados à modelagem tridimensional das árvores, no entanto, para que seja possível aplicar tal modelo, é necessário realizar a detecção dos pontos que fazem parte de árvores na varredura. O presente estudo propõe um método para a detecção de árvores a partir da nuvem de pontos 3D de plantios florestais. Inicialmente, procura-se reconstituir a distribuição espacial das árvores a partir da aplicação de um algoritmo de segmentação em uma seção transversal (1 metro) da nuvem de pontos. Em seguida, é apresentado um algoritmo para detectar a posição das árvores com base no padrão de alinhamento do povoamento. Por fim, os resultados obtidos são apresentados para validação pelo usuário da nuvem de pontos. O método apresentado foi testado em parcelas circulares instaladas em povoamentos de Eucalyptus spp. levantados por varreduras simples e múltiplas. Os resultados apontaram a necessidade de utilização de múltiplas estações de TLS para redução do efeito de sombreamento no levantamento das parcelas circulares. A aplicação do método de detecção de árvores em conjunto com a análise visual resultou na identificação de 100% das árvores a partir das nuvens de pontos das parcelas
