OWNERSHIP STRUCTURE AND THE LEVEL OF QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES OF QUALITATIVE INFORMATION BY QUOTED NON-FINANCIAL COMPANIES IN NIGERIA
Authors: GODWIN OHIOKHA , OROBOH UWADIAH JOHN
Published: November 2024

This study examined the influence of various ownership structures on the disclosure of qualitative information by non-financial firms that are publicly traded on the Nigerian Stock Exchange. The study obtained data from 22 organizations spanning the period from 2012 to 2021, utilizing secondary data extracted from their audited annual reports. The study employed regression analysis to examine the data and discovered that foreign ownership had a significant and positive effect on the disclosure of qualitative information. Nevertheless, the level of ownership concentration, institutional ownership, and management ownership did not exert a substantial influence on disclosure. The study recommends that foreign owners should increase their engagement in overseeing company activities in order to enhance information disclosure and transparency. Moreover, the augmentation of institutional ownership and their proactive engagement in corporate governance has the potential to improve transparency, as specified in the Nigerian Code for Corporate Governance.

Objective: Vaccines for COVID-19 have reduced the severity of the infection and prevented deaths. Parents of children on psychopharmacological medications for psychiatric disorders were also referred to the hospital to learn whether the vaccine was safe for their children. It is not known until this period how chronic psychopharmacological drug use will interact with the vaccine. This study aimed to examine the early adverse effects of COVID-19 vaccines in children and adolescents aged 12-18 who have chronic psychiatric disorders and use psychopharmacological medications.

Method: Post-vaccine short-term effects of 88 patients aged 12-18, who were followed up in the child and adolescent psychiatry clinic due to chronic psychiatric disorders and were using psychopharmacological medications, were monitored and compared with 88 vaccinated healthy controls.

Results: Of the 88 patients, 80 (90.9%) were vaccinated with BNT162b2 (BioNTech) as the healthy control group; 8 (9.1%) were with Sinovac. Seventy-six (86.3%) of all patients were vaccinated with the second, and 21 (24%) were with the third dose. These were 83-second and 26-third doses for the control group. From all 45.4% of the patients were using antipsychotics. The cases were examined on the fourth and seventh days after vaccination. While the most frequently reported adverse effects after the first BNT162b2 dose in the patient group on the fourth day after vaccination were local pain (58.8%), fatigue (16.3%), redness (12.5%), and headache (11.3%), side affects first Sinovac dose in the patient group were local pain (75.0%), redness (25.0%), fatigue (25.0%). There was no significant difference between the patient and control groups receiving the BNT162b2 or Sinovac vaccine regarding adverse ffects on the fourth day. At the same time, in comparisons between patients diagnosed with psychiatric disorders, no statistical difference was found in terms of early adverse effects between the patients with and without antipsychotic use.

Discussion: Our study shows that the vaccines mentioned in children and adolescents with psychiatric disorders are as safe and tolerable in terms of short-term side effects as in healthy individuals. This knowledge will be crucial in guiding evidence-based clinical decision-making and ensuring the safety of children and adolescents with psychiatric disorders.

O licenciamento ambiental faz parte das atividades rotineiras do DNIT considerando sua função e as atividades que exerce. A necessidade de supressão de vegetação o sujeita a exigências de implantação de medidas compensatórias. O ordenamento jurídico brasileiro é bastante amplo nesse tema. Considerando a necessidade de facilitar o entendimento e a operacionalização de tais obrigações dentro do departamento, buscou-se reunir a legislação a respeito do tema, definindo seus conceitos e fatos geradores. Com base nisso, propôs-se um conteúdo mínimo para o documento que baseia a quantificação de cada medida compensatória, o inventário florestal. Foram elaborados dois fluxogramas de processo para facilitar o entendimento das fases até a definição final da quantificação. A definição clara dos quantitativos é essencial para uma negociação junto ao órgão ambiental licenciador e, também, para a obtenção de orçamento para o cumprimento das condicionantes de licenciamento.

Published: November 2024

Rodovias brasileiras, em geral, permitem a implantação de acessos, visto que a maioria dos projetos rodoviários não consideram segregar totalmente a rodovia das propriedades que a margeiam. Nesse sentido, torna-se necessário o controle fiscalizatório da implantação desses acessos, especialmente quanto à fluidez e segurança viária. Esse controle deve ser exercido pelo poder público com jurisdição sobre a via, o que demanda normas orientativas que definam diretrizes para a implantação ou regularização dos acessos. No âmbito das rodovias federais, o Departamento Nacional de Infraestrutura de Transportes (DNIT) e demais órgãos rodoviários contavam até então com o Manual de Acesso de Propriedades Marginais a Rodovias Federais, IPR – 728, publicado em 2006. No entanto, com o passar do tempo, tornou-se evidente a necessidade de atualização desse conteúdo, principalmente quanto à demanda por critérios mais simples e com maior número de alternativas para atender a mais cenários. Assim sendo, através de uma parceria entre o DNIT e a Agência Nacional de Transportes Terrestres (ANTT), realizou-se a revisão do manual, agora intitulado Manual de Projetos de Acessos de Áreas Lindeiras a Rodovias Federais. Nesse sentido, este estudo apresenta os pontos da edição de 2006 que careciam de alterações, seguidos das propostas de revisão e respectiva fundamentação teórica. Foram ainda, desenvolvidas hipóteses de aplicação objetivando verificar a aderência da revisão ao processo de autorização de acessos em rodovias federais. Por fim, concluiu-se que a revisão do manual gerou avanços, especialmente na diversificação de soluções, priorizando fluidez e segurança viária.

O desenvolvimento sustentável compreende princípio constitucional multidisciplinar, o qual tem por base os pilares econômico, social, ambiental, ético, cultural e jurídico-político. À Administração Pública, como ente estatal, cabe a sua implementação, de forma integrada e preferencialmente em sua máxima efetividade. Para tanto, as políticas de governança representam importante instrumento para estabelecimento de diretrizes. Em levantamento sobre o grau de implementação das ações de sustentabilidade na Administração Pública Federal, no entanto, o Tribunal de Contas da União (TCU) proferiu o Acórdão 1.056/2017 após constatação de implementação insatisfatória das ações de sustentabilidade, em razão de deficiências de planejamento, coordenação e aderência a requisitos de desenvolvimento sustentável. Em atenção a este diagnóstico e comprometida com a implementação da missão institucional do Departamento Nacional de Infraestrutura de Transportes (DNIT), a Diretoria de Administração e Finanças (DAF) criou o Rito de Análise das Licitações, incorporando-o ao curso processual das licitações administrativas. Assim, o presente estudo discorreu sobre o rito e sua metodologia, descreveu o escopo da prática, assim como apresentou os resultados da análise de 22 processos licitatórios ocorridos num período de 18 meses (dezembro de 2021 a maio de 2023), por meio de pesquisa exploratória, tendo alcançado diversos benefícios e ainda uma economia de cerca de 20 milhões de reais. Dessa forma, o rito contribuiu inovadoramente na efetividade da governança para a sustentabilidade e para a concretização da missão da autarquia que é implementar a política de infraestrutura de transportes terrestres e aquaviários, contribuindo para o desenvolvimento sustentável do país.

Aim. The aim of the study was the assessment of the changes in smoking frequency during a twoyear monitoring program among a group of adolescents. Material and method. The 2-year longitudinal study evaluated a group of 61 schoolchildren, 13-16 years-old, enrolled in the Com4You Oral Health Promotion Program in Bucharest, Romania. The behaviour assessment was performed using a self-administered questionnaire regarding oral hygiene, diet, dental services utilisation and smoking, applied every 8 months, 4 times in total. The subjects were delivered during the program 3 oral health educational lessons using experiential learning, with different oral health-related aspects approached at each lesson and smoking was part of the last one, with the final assessment at 2 weeks after the last lesson. Results: The frequency of smokers increased gradually from 11,5% at baseline to 41% at the end of the monitoring period. When the sample was divided by age, results showed that the increase in frequency of smokers was greater among the 15-16 years-old group, from 19,4% at baseline to 48,4% at the final assessment, who also increased with time the number of cigarettes used per day, compared to 13-14 year-olds, from 3,3% to 33,3% and who kept smoking only occasionally during the study. Moreover, boys were more attracted by smoking than girls, the increase in frequency of smokers among boys was from 12,5% at baseline to 62,5% after two years, compared to girls: from 11,5% to 33,3%. Conclusion: in the studied group, adolescents smoked already from 13 years old, and the frequency of smokers increased fast with age, around 15 years they already smoked daily, with boys being more prone to smoke than girls.

Published: November 2024

The canalis sinuosus (CS) branches from the infraorbital canal (IOC) and carries the anterior superior alveolar nerve (ASAN) mainly distributed to the upper frontal teeth. Common descriptions indicate a single CS with an infraorbital initial segment, continuing with a transverse facial course within the anterior antral wall. It is reported here a case which was documented in Cone Beam Computed Tomography in which, on one side, the initial course of the CS was not superior to the antrum, but lateral to it. On the opposite side the CS was duplicated. Such variations of the CS should not be ignored during surgical approaches of the maxillary sinus walls, especially of the canine fossa.

Aim and objectives: Due to the low tensile strength of gypsum that causes susceptibility to fracture of dental diagnostic plaster casts, long-term storage of these models may become problematic and inconvenient for dental healthcare practitioners. The purpose of this study is to investigate the possibility of 3D printing these models, by testing the accuracy of dental diagnostic models produced by two additive manufacturing techniques. Material and methods: For this purpose, 20 conventional plaster models from randomly chosen subjects were selected and served as reference. The casts were digitized using a 3D scanner and virtual models were adjusted for 3D printing. The virtual models were reconstructed by using a material jetting (MJ) and reversed-stereolithography (SLA) 3D printer. The reconstructed models were digitized using a laboratory 3D scanner and the resulting mesh datasets were compared with the virtual models by using dedicated inspection software. Results: The trueness of printed models was 67.8 µm for the MJ printer and 86.7 µm for SLA printer, even though this difference was statistically significant (p> 0.05), all of the 3D printed models were clinically acceptable.

The exact cause of acute appendicitis remains unknown, being probably multifactorial, but the inflammation of the vermiform appendix, due to luminal obstruction or dietary factors, is a major diagnostic criterion in acute appendicitis. This pathology typically presents acutely within the first 24 hours of onset, but can also present as a more chronic condition. It is currently considered that the pathological process begins after prolonged spasm of the smooth muscles and arterial vessels of the appendix. Muscle contraction leads to stasis in the appendix, spasm of the arterial vessels, ischaemia of the mucosa and, as a consequence, the primary Aschoff complex develops. Acute appendicitis is the most common surgical emergency which required the development of a predictor, represented in many studies by the disease severity score (DSS). This score can be associated with the results on the incidence of in-hospital and after hospital discharge complications, with the evaluation of the duration of hospitalization, in order to apply the most effective therapeutic methods. Once the diagnosis of acute appendicitis has been made, the appendicectomy should be performed urgently within the first hours after hospitalization. To date, the indications for laparoscopic appendicectomy are debatable and its advantages are related to the severity of the disease.

Epilepsy alongside mentally depreciation and other neurological disorders might develop physical, social and mental concerns, particularly, when they start during adolescence. In addition, the seizures scenes along mental deterioration may reduce oral and dental attention bringing about various periodontal and prosthodontics issues. Epilepsy has direct negative consequences for patient’s general dental condition and oral health, the two of which are additionally influenced by lacking oral hygiene; weak oral hygiene itself is regularly likewise brought about by epilepsy-related unforeseen disadvantage. Therefore, missing teeth, caries and periodontal conditions happen progressively regularly in epilepsy patients and they need increasingly dental treatment options and beforehand planning. In any case, in certainty the epileptic patients can get less and more straightforward treatment modalities. The point of this thesis was to survey and integrate examinations on dental treatment in epilepsy patients and to make reference to possible triggers and seizures management in dental practice.

The aim of this randomized controlled trial is to obtain an enhancement of general oral health by supplementing the daily oral hygiene with a three-month oral probiotic therapy. For this randomized clinical trial, patients for the study group were selected meeting defined inclusion and exclusion criteria and Gingival Probing Deapth (GDP), Bleeding on Probing (BOP) and pH was measured before and after using probiotic therapy. For statistical analisys, the data was transferred from the periodontal chart into an Excel sheet. The results were presented by means of descriptive analysis, followed by the statistical analysis with the Fisher’s exact test, testing whether the null-hypothesis is rejected. In the study group, nine out of ten patients showed an improvement after the treatment phase, and one patient did not present an improvement. In the control group seven out of ten patients showed an improvement, and three patients did not. The test resulted in p = 0.291, thus p > 0,05, which means, that there was no statistical significance in improvement in the two groups for GPD. Only those participants were included in the database, which demonstrated BOP > 0 during the first measurement. In the study group eight patients were included in the study, of which all presented an improvement in BOP after the oral probiotic therapy. In the control group four patients were included in the study, of which no patient presented an improvement. The test resulted in p = 0.002, thus p < 0.05. The improvement in the two groups for BOP was considered statistically very significant. In conclusion, improvements have been obtained by a decrease in BOP. Although the intake of oral probiotics on GPD and salivary pH did not show statistical significance, positive changes have also been noted. Further studies are needed to prove the beneficial effects of oral probiotics on oral health.

The inflammatory condition known as periodontitis can seriously impair a patient's quality of life and the oral cavity if left untreated. Although there isn't a reliable, standardized treatment for periodontitis, there have been numerous attempts, including tissue regeneration methods, antibiotics, and subgingival instrumentation. Given the limitations of the aforementioned treatment, local drug delivery systems appear to be the way of the future. These systems have the potential to release both tissue regeneration inducers and antibiotics gradually over time.

Published: November 2024

A Teoria do Controle de Convencionalidade das leis visa compatibilizar as normas internas com as normas internacionais, como se os  ordenamentos formassem uma ordem harmônica e coerente. A teoria nasce na França, mas é no Sistema Interamericano de Direitos Humanos que ganha relevância internacional. Desde o ano de 2006, a Corte Interamericana de Direitos Humanos exige que os Estados Partes da Convenção Americana sobre Direitos Humanos e que se submetam a sua jurisdição, exerçam o controle de convencionalidade, compatibilizando suas normas à Convenção Americana e, à interpretação que dela realiza o Tribunal Interamericano. Diante disso, todos os julgamentos que esta Corte profere, devem ser analisados e compatibilizados internamente, independente se o Estado figurou ou não como sujeito na responsabilização internacional. Neste trabalho, o estudo versará sobre um caso de grande destaque internacional, que envolve direitos laborais, conhecido como o Caso de Lagos del Campo vs. Peru, e a possibilidade de manifestação da Corte na edição da Lei 13.467/2017. O presente trabalho utiliza o método indutivo para a realização da pesquisa e a técnica de pesquisa legal-bibliográfica, sendo utilizada análise de caso.
A perversidade da terceirização em serviços públicos
Authors: Souto Severo Valdete
Published: November 2024

A terceirização é um sistema perverso, sob qualquer ponto de vista. Quando praticada pela administração pública, elimina não apenas o direito à relação de emprego, mas também ao ingresso em carreira pública. Compromete a própria existência do Estado. Sob a perspectiva do Direito, a terceirização de serviços públicos também quebra a lógica democrática, pois quem toma o trabalho é também quem julga a própria responsabilidade pela escolha administrativa. Este artigo pretende demonstrar a perversidade dessa prática, para o Estado Social.

Este trabalho se propõe a analisar a Medida Provisória nº 936 (BRASIL, 2020g) e, por consequência, as normas que nela se embasaram Lei n° 14.020 (BRASIL, 2020e) e MP nº 1.045 (BRASIL, 2021c), as quais permitiram a redução proporcional da jornada de trabalho e de salário, além da suspensão temporária do contrato de trabalho, mediante acordo individual escrito entre empregado e empregador, com a comunicação, em até dez dias, ao sindicato representativo da categoria profissional. Embora essa Medida tenha sido elaborada com a finalidade de preservar o emprego e a renda face à atual crise econômica vivida em decorrência da Covid-19, sua constitucionalidade foi questionada em razão de o inciso VI do art. 7º da Constituição Federal (BRASIL, 1988) permitir a pactuação de redutibilidade salarial apenas via negociação coletiva, o que culminou na interposição da Ação Direta de Inconstitucionalidade nº 6.363 (BRASIL, 2020i), que também será explorada no presente. Diante desse contexto, tartar-se-á dos temas mais polêmicos da nova legislação, assim considerados por não terem sido expressamente abordados nela, existindo lacunas quanto às consequências jurídicas de situações como a não comunicação, ao sindicato, do acordo individual firmado sob a égide da MP n. 936 (BRASIL, 2020g); a impossibilidade de contatar a entidade sindical para efetuar essa comunicação; a efetiva comunicação do acordo ao sindicato sem resposta deste; a rejeição de acordos individuais, por parte do sindicato, sem a convocação de assembleia para tanto; e, por fim, o conflito entre acordo individualmente pactuado e norma coletiva superveniente. Objetivase, com o estudo dessas questões, conferir maior segurança jurídica, tanto a empregados, como a empregadores, acerca dos acordos firmados com base na MP n° 936 (BRASIL, 2020g), na Lei n° 14.020 (BRASIL, 2020e) e na MP n° 1.045 (BRASIL, 2021c) – legislações que renovaram as medidas previstas naquela primeira norma.
Despedidas coletivas e o diálogo social
Authors: Pasetto Mônica Delgado
Published: November 2024

O artigo é parte integrante de uma pesquisa realizada no plano internacional e brasileiro no tocante à regulação das despedidas coletivas, para avaliar o tratamento da matéria nos diferentes ordenamentos jurídicos. Nesse contexto, o foco do presente estudo é verificar o tratamento que a matéria recebe no âmbito da Organização Internacional do Trabalho (OIT), da União Europeia (UE) e do Brasil, em breves linhas, procurando formas de diminuir os impactos sociais e econômicos dessas decisões empresariais, no cenário de crise. Pretende-se também avaliar o uso e o alcance do diálogo social como estratégia para diminuição das consequências das crises sofridas pelas empresas na pandemia da Covid-19 e como os atores sociais podem contribuir para o reforço desse diálogo.

DOENÇA OCUPACIONAL DECORRENTE DA COVID-19 E O DESRESPEITO ÀS REGRAS DE DISTANCIAMENTO NA PANDEMIA
Authors: Trois Charles Luz de
Published: November 2024

O presente artigo examina o possível reconhecimento do nexo de causalidade do trabalho com a infecção por coronavírus eeste contágio como doença ocupacional. Para tanto, são trazidas algumas considerações sobre a problemática construção doselementos de prova e é chamada a atenção a um elemento a ser observado nos processos judiciais: a atitude de muitos brasileirosde desrespeito às regras de distanciamento social na pandemia. Quanto à aplicação da teoria da responsabilidade objetiva, foirealizada crítica à sua aplicação indistinta como o ponto principal para a solução dos casos de imputação do contágio da Covid-19 no trabalho, já que o problema está em apenas um de seus elementos: o nexo de causalidade. Foram abordadas breves considerações acerca do ônus da prova. Por fim, foi exposta a teoria da causalidade incerta, hipotética ou disjuntiva como uma proposta de solução ao atual debate do Covid-19 como doença ocupacional, tendo sido apresentados dois caminhos jurídicos possíveis para a implementação da referida teoria aos pedidos indenizatórios, aodepósito dos valores do Fundo de Garantia do Tempo de Serviço(FGTS) e ao prazo da garantia provisória ao emprego.
A REFORMA TRABALHISTA COMO UMA PAUTA NÃO TRABALHISTA
Authors: Valentim Gabriel Lima
Published: November 2024

O presente estudo tem como objetivo realizar uma análise críticoconstrutiva das decisões judiciais do Tribunal Superior do Trabalho (TST) que declararam a Greve Geral de 2017 como abusiva. A Constituição de 1988, de forma progressista e inovadora, garantiu aos trabalhadores o direito de greve, estabelecendo expressamente a liberdade reivindicativa nesse movimento. Todavia, o TST vem, desde a greve dos petroleiros de 1995, declarando greves políticas como abusivas. Emerge, então, a indagação principal que surge deste trabalho: seriam essas declarações de abusividade constitucionais? O artigo investiga o caso da Greve Geral de 2017 como um paradigma para responder a essa pergunta. O trabalho tem como base a pesquisa bibliográfica e documental, com objetivos exploratório e explicativo, valendo-se da utilização do método hipotético-dedutivo e de estudos de caso. O artigo chegou a três conclusões principais: o conceito de greve política é raso, visto que toda greve tem um componente político; mesmo levando em conta o frágil conceito de greve política, a Greve Geral de 2017 contra a Reforma Trabalhista não se enquadraria nesse conceito, já que a Reforma claramente afeta as condições profissionais dos grevistas; por fim, as decisões do TST sobre a abusividade de greves políticas ignoram a forte influência do empresariado na tomada das decisões do Estado. A decisão afronta o que foi claramente escolhido pelos constituintes de 1987 – o direito à liberdade reivindicativa dos trabalhadores.
ENFRENTAMENTO AOS PRECONCEITOS SOFRIDOS PELA MULHER NO MERCADO DE TRABALHO À LUZ DA LEGISLAÇÃO TRABALHISTA E DAS POLÍTICAS PÚBLICAS
Authors: Tavares Bandeira Romeu , Souza Abel Tainara
Published: November 2024

O artigo examina a discriminação de gênero presente no ambiente profissional. Neste sentido, a questão problema deste trabalho consiste no questionamento de como as empresas contribuem para a promoção da igualdade de gênero neste mercado a partir da conformidade de leis e políticas públicas ligadas à seara trabalhista. Assim, o objetivo geral é analisar o papel das normas trabalhistas e políticas públicas na proteção das mulheres no mercado de trabalho. Ademais, são objetivos específicos: a) identificar as principais formas de preconceitos e discriminação enfrentadas por meio da análise de dados estatísticos relevantes; b) associar as legislações de proteção da mulher no mercado de trabalho e as políticas públicas a elas atreladas; c) propor alternativas para minorar os preconceitos contra as mulheres no mercado de trabalho. A pesquisa atual utiliza uma abordagem metodológica analítica com ênfase em estudo bibliográfico e documental. Além disso, adota uma abordagem qualitativa de natureza exploratória e descritiva, sendo a revisão de literatura a estratégia metodológica principal, utilizando-se do método dedutivo.
UMA ANÁLISE CRÍTICO-EPISTEMOLÓGICA ACERCA DOS RECENTES PRECEDENTES DO SUPREMO TRIBUNAL FEDERAL SOBRE TEMAS DA COMPETÊNCIA DA JUSTIÇA DO TRABALHO
Authors: Gonçalves Vargas Breno Hermes
Published: November 2024

A partir de um exame panorâmico de recentes precedentes do Supremo Tribunal Federal concernentes aos temas da competência da Justiça do Trabalho, o artigo intenta situá-los naquilo que compreende ser parte de uma espécie de jurisprudência de exceção em formação no campo da tutela do trabalho, no Brasil. A partir de uma perspectiva crítico-epistemológica, promove uma análise da discursividade presente nas referidas decisões judiciais a fim de colocar em evidência a tendência de virada epistêmica na alocação dos valores sociais, de forte inspiração neoliberal, não apenas como forma de constatação de um fenômeno para estimular o debate, mas igualmente gerar espaços de resistência e, até mesmo, contramovimentos nesse campo.
Companion Involvement as a Practice for Addressing Patient Resistance
Authors: Wei Wan
Published: November 2024

Previous research highlights how the presence of companions can influence the trajectory and outcome of medical encounters. This study, set within the context of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), examines cases where medical professionals enlist patient companions to join the consultation when patients resist the doctors’ medical opinions. Results from this study indicate that when companions participate in this manner, they face the dilemma of either endorsing the doctors and aiding in the implementation of their medical agenda or siding with the patients and being a supportive companion. This may explain why this practice is not always effective in countering patient resistance and securing patient adherence, especially when the patient's resistance is overt and strong.

There is a great variety of oil types in the eastern Malay Basin flank area. We observe heavier, hence lower quality, oil at shallow reservoir levels, but mostly light oil in deeper petroleum reservoirs. The oils are characterized by varying amounts of wax, a fairly low sulphur content and, occasionally, significant levels of CO2. Many of the shallow reservoir oils appear to have been derived from originally light oils that suffered from biodegradation, and are slightly enriched in sulphur, compared to the native oils. Oils in reservoirs with a temperature of less than 75 °C appear to have been biodegraded, whereas hotter reservoirs with temperatures above 90 °C appear to have been unaffected.
Multi-dimensional oscillatory activity of mouse GnRH neurons in vivo

Published: November 2024

The gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) neurons represent the key output cells of the neural network controlling mammalian fertility. We used GCaMP fiber photometry to record the population activity of the GnRH neuron distal projections in the ventral arcuate nucleus where they merge before entering the median eminence to release GnRH into the portal vasculature. Recordings in freely behaving intact male and female mice revealed abrupt ∼8-min duration increases in activity that correlated perfectly with the appearance of a subsequent pulse of luteinizing hormone (LH). The GnRH neuron dendrons also exhibited a low level of unchanging clustered, rapidly fluctuating baseline activity in males and throughout the estrous cycle in females. In female mice, a gradual increase in basal activity that exhibited ∼80-min oscillations began in the afternoon of proestrus and lasted for 12 h. This was associated with the onset of the LH surge that ended several hours before the fall in GCaMP signal. Abrupt 8-min duration episodes of GCaMP activity continued to occur on top of the rising surge baseline before ceasing in estrus. These observations provide the first description of GnRH neuron activity in freely behaving animals. They demonstrate that three distinct patterns of oscillatory activity occur in GnRH neurons. These are comprised of low-level rapid baseline activity, abrupt 8-min duration oscillations that drive pulsatile gonadotropin secretion and, in females, a gradual and very prolonged oscillating increase in activity responsible for the preovulatory LH surge.
