Published: August 2020

Este relato de experiência apresenta uma reflexão sistematizada acerca da inserção da disciplina de Filosofia desde o 1º ano do ensino fundamental por entender que eta é uma área do conhecimento essencial para a formação do pensamento crítico e reflexivo. Deste modo, auxilia o indivíduo no bem pensar para o reto agir. Diferencia a Filosofia de outros saberes e reflete sobre seu surgimento na Grécia Antiga até chegar à contemporaneidade, quando se tornou uma disciplina escolar. Aborda a situação da disciplina no período da Ditadura Militar e das leis que, ora retiram, ora inserem a disciplina no currículo da Educação Básica. Apresenta também que, assim como o filósofo norte-americano Matthew Lipman, criador do programa de Filosofia para Crianças, os autores deste relato trabalham em prol dessa disciplina e se preocuparam em desenvolver nas crianças, desde o primeiro ano do ensino fundamental, conhecimentos básicos do universo da Filosofia. Por não concordarmos plenamente com as ideias e práticas propostas por Lipman, este trabalho apresenta o percurso da criação do currículo de Filosofia para ser utilizado na Escola de Educação Básica da Universidade Federal de Uberlândia, M.G.

Published: August 2020

O uso de medicamentos, em especial o metilfenidato, por crianças diagnosticadas com transtornos de comportamento e/ou de aprendizagem, cresce, exageradamente, no Brasil. Neste estudo, apresentamos o resultado de uma pesquisa bibliográfica de artigos sobre a medicalização da infância, publicados entre 2002 e 2017. Selecionamos trinta artigos, destacando o ano de publicação, as revistas, as áreas de pesquisa dos autores e seus posicionamentos quanto à indicação e/ou ao uso de psicofármacos por crianças com diagnósticos frutos de queixas de problemas escolares. Nessas análises descritivas buscamos quais são as contribuições das publicações para a Educação. Os resultados indicaram que 90% dos trabalhos têm pelo menos um autor da área da Psicologia. Todos os autores dos artigos selecionados fizeram críticas à patologização e à medicalização das crianças como forma de escamotear fatores sociais. Diante dos indicadores obtidos, conclui-se que há necessidade de mais reflexões problematizando o fenômeno, além de discussões que busquem a superação da medicalização da infância. É imprescindível que profissionais da Educação compreendam as causas e consequências desse fenômeno.

Published: August 2020

Traumatic trigeminal neuropathy occupies a special place in the pain continuum. The clarification of genesis and clinical and neurophysiological findings makes it possible to perform differentiation treatment.Objective: to evaluate the clinical and neurophysiological efficiency of repetitive magnetic stimulation (RMS) and vitamin B complex therapy for traumatic trigeminal neuropathy.Patients and methods. The investigation enrolled 36 patients (26 women and 10 men) aged 25 to 35 years with inferior alveolar neuropathy following bilateral sagittal split osteotomy. The DN4 questionnaire was used to identify a neurogenic pain component. The intensity of pain syndrome was assessed using a visual analogue scale. A neurophysiological examination involving the recording of brainstem auditory evoked potentials (BAEPs) and trigeminal evoked potentials (TEPs) was made using a Neuro-MEP device (Neurosoft, Russia). Therapy including vitamin B complex was performed in 12 patients. Twenty-four patients received low-frequency pulsed magnetic field therapy using a Neuro-MS magnetic stimulator.Results and discussion. The clinical picture in patients with traumatic inferior alveolar neuropathy after corrective mandible surgery is characterized by the polymorphism of pain sensations and sensory disorders. The development of pain syndrome is due to a neuropathic component. The 10-day vitamin group B therapy cycle had no substantial impact on the time course of clinical and neurophysiological changes. After the 10-day RMS cycle, there were reductions in swelling and the intensity of pain syndrome and the severity of sensory disorders in the lower lip, chin, and mandible. The data on BAEPs showed shortening in the interpeak intervals III–V; those on TEPs demonstrated a decrease in the P1–N1 amplitude.Conclusion. Unlike vitamin B complex therapy, the RMS cycle in patients with traumatic trigeminal neuropathy makes it possible to reduce the intensity of pain syndrome and the severity of sensory disorders, as well as excitability of the nonspecific structures of the brainstem and the central structures of the trigeminal system.

Published: August 2020

AbstractWe asked whether the physiological and morphologic properties of hypoglossal motor neurons (CNXII MNs) that innervate protruder or retractor tongue muscles are disrupted in neonatalLgDelmice that carry a heterozygous deletion parallel to that associated with DiGeorge/22q11.2 deletion syndrome (22q11.2DS). Disrupted coordination of tongue movement inLgDelmouse pups may contribute to suckling, feeding, and swallowing (S/F/S) disruptions that parallel pediatric dysphagia in infants and toddlers with 22q11.2DS. Using anin vitrorhythmically active medullary slice preparation, we found spontaneous firing as well as IPSC frequency differed significantly in neonatalLgDelversus wild-type (WT) protruder and retractor CNXII MNs that were identified by retrograde tracing from their target muscles. In response to respiration-related activity, initiation and decay of transiently increased firing in WT protruder MNs is delayed inLgDel, accompanied by altered excitatory/inhibitory (E/I) balance. In addition,LgDelretractor MNs have a transient increase in firing with diminished IPSC frequency that is not seen in WT. There were no significant differences in cell body volume of either XII class in WT andLgDel. Sholl analysis showed the total numbers of dendritic intersections (at 50- and 90-μm radii from the cell soma) were significantly greater forLgDelversus WT retractor MNs. Thus, the physiological, synaptic and cellular properties of distinct classes of CNXII MNs that coordinate tongue movement in neonatal WT mice are altered inLgDel. Such changes could contribute to sub-optimal coordination of S/F/S that underlies pediatric dysphagia in 22q11.2DS.
Variation in sensitivity and rate of change in body composition: steps toward individualizing transgender care

Published: August 2020

Objective
Transgender individuals sometimes report a lack of physical change during hormone treatment, such as alterations in muscle tone or fat distribution. Identifying characteristics of this subgroup could be a step toward individualizing hormone therapy in transgender individuals. Therefore, we study the variation of changes in body composition and characteristics associated with a lack of change.

Design and methods:
Body composition measures were recorded in 323 transmen and 288 transwomen at every visit from the start of hormone therapy to a maximum of 24 months follow-up. Absence of change was defined as transmen with a decrease in lean body mass or transwomen with a decrease in fat percentage.

Results
A lack of change at 24 months was observed in 19 of 94 (20.2%) transmen and in 9 of 96 (9.4%) transwomen. The risk of not achieving change in body composition was related to lower testosterone levels and less suppression of LH in transmen (OR: 0.67, 95% CI: 0.48–0.94 per SD increase in testosterone and OR: 1.36, 95% CI: 1.01–1.83 per SD increase in LH).

Conclusions:
There is a large variation in body composition changes during hormone therapy, with a substantial proportion of individuals with no measurable effects. In transmen, serum testosterone and LH were associated with a lack of change, but serum hormone levels were not associated with body composition changes in transwomen. The results provide a rationale for individualizing hormone therapy in transmen, by considering individual effects rather than solely relying on a standardized dosage of hormone therapy.

Abstract
The Chinese chestnut (Castanea mollissima Bl.) is a woody nut crop with a high ecological value. Although many cultivars have been selected from natural seedlings, elite lines with comprehensive agronomic traits and characters remain rare. To explore genetic resources with aid of whole genome sequence will play important roles in modern breeding programs for chestnut. In this study, we generated a high-quality C. mollissima genome assembly by combining 90× Pacific Biosciences long read and 170× high-throughput chromosome conformation capture data. The assembly was 688.93 Mb in total, with a contig N50 of 2.83 Mb. Most of the assembled sequences (99.75%) were anchored onto 12 chromosomes, and 97.07% of the assemblies were accurately anchored and oriented. A total of 33,638 protein-coding genes were predicted in the C. mollissima genome. Comparative genomic and transcriptomic analyses provided insights into the genes expressed in specific tissues, as well as those associated with burr development in the Chinese chestnut. This highly contiguous assembly of the C. mollissima genome provides a valuable resource for studies aiming at identifying and characterizing agronomical-important traits, and will aid the design of breeding strategies to develop more focused, faster, and predictable improvement programs.

Beyond the novelty effect: EFL learners' attitudes towards ICT use in the classroom
Authors: Kopinska Marta 
Published: August 2020

AbstractThe present study explores high school students' (aged 16–17) attitudes towards the use of technology Information and Communication Technology (ICT) in the English as foreign language (EFL) classroom. While digital competence has become one of the core skills in our society, ICT is gaining more presence in the EFL teaching and learning. However, it is not widespread in the mainstream education, as it is the case of Spain, especially at high school level. There is also still some reticence on the part of the teachers to let the ICT be part and parcel of their daily practice. Since adolescents often experience a motivational drop as far as learning a foreign language (FL) in school setting is concerned, EFL teachers should promote the integration of ICT in classroom activities, as research has shown that technology-supported activities may contribute to engaging students in the process of learning a FL and act as a motivating factor. This paper examines 77 EFL learners' responses to a questionnaire administered before and after the implementation of an 18-month ICT-based intervention in their classroom. The main findings reveal that attitudes towards technology were positive and they were maintained beyond the possible “novelty effect”, which supports the claims in favor of ICT's integration in EFL teaching.
Teacher burnout in the light of workplace, organizational, and social factors
Authors: Szabo Eva , Jagodics Balazs 
Published: August 2020

Background and aims
We studied teacher burnout and its relationship with job demands and resources, collective self-efficacy, and social support. Previous studies indicate that the factors of burnout (depersonalization, emotional exhaustion, and reduced personal accomplishment) develop in work environment where demands exceed resources, and where social support and collective self-efficacy are both perceived to be low.

Methods
Online survey method was used (N = 664) in this study. Organizational and social context was measured using the job demands and resources model, and measuring perceived collective self-efficacy of the workplace and social support of the coworkers.

Results
Based on the results of correlation analysis, different types of job demands are associated positively with burnout, while job resources, collective self-efficacy, and social support prove to have negative relationship with burnout. The ratio of demands and resources (workload index) also has a strong link to burnout scores. Using linear regression analysis to build a model revealed professional social support, possibility of personal development and job demands as significant predictors of burnout.

Discussion
These findings emphasize the importance of professional social support in the prevention of burnout. The results indicate that training programs which strengthen social support between coworkers are much needed, and that school psychologists can help teachers to develop more supportive communities.

Published: August 2020

Background and Study Aim. Sprint performance plays a major role in success of field-based team sports such as soccer. The aim of this study was to evaluate the relationship between sprinting performance and both lower and upper extremity explosive strength in young soccer players.
Material and Methods. One hundred forty-seven soccer players (mean±SD; age 11.6±1.66 years, height 143.2±11.8 cm, body mass 37.1±10.2 kg and training experience 1.11±1.5 years) voluntarily participated in this study. The sprinting performance of each player was determined using their 5, 10, 20 and 30m single sprint times. The lower and upper extremity explosive strength were evaluated by standing long jump and medicine ball throwing tests respectively. Prior to the study, each of the players was given detailed information about the risks and injuries they could encounter during the study, and parental consent was obtained by their signatures on informed voluntary consent forms since the subjects were under the age of 18. Permission to conduct the study was obtained from Ankara University Medical Faculty’s Surgical and Medical Research Ethics Committee.
Results. The results indicated a strong relationship between sprinting performance and horizontal jump performance (r=-.671 ̶ -.764; p=0.001) and also a large relationship between sprinting performance and upper extremity strength (r=-.633 ̶ -.703; p=0.001). The sprint performance (n=147) also significantly correlated with body weight (r=-.345 ̶ -.373; p=0.001) and height (r=-.445 ̶ -.505; p=0.001).
Conclusions. The study results suggest that upper extremity strength is as important as the lower extremity strength for sprinting performance and that trainers should emphasize lower and upper extremity strength in training intended to improve sprinting performance.

As ligas de alumínio vêm sendo aplicadas na indústria de transporte e automobilística em virtude de propriedades tais como leveza e resistência à corrosão. Os biocombustíveis estão entre as alternativas avaliadas para substituir os combustíveis fósseis, pois apresentam como vantagem a biodegradabilidade e são provenientes de fontes renováveis. Esse trabalho realizou uma avaliação da resistência a corrosão de ligas de alumínio em biodiesel de soja, com diferentes concentrações de ácido oleico através de ensaios gravimétricos. Observou-se que a taxa de corrosão das ligas em biodiesel de soja puro é mais significativa nas primeiras horas de imersão, e apresenta uma significativa diminuição em tempos mais longos. Amostras de biodiesel de soja com teor de 20% de ácido oleico aumentaram a corrosão da liga de alumínio 6061 em comparação com amostras imersas em biodiesel puro.
Posterior cruciate ligament and posterolateral corner reconstruction in patient with multiple ligament injury of the knee: a case report
Authors: Aryana I. Gusti Ngurah Wien , Kermawan Putu 
Published: August 2020

The treatment of posterolateral corner (PLC) knee injuries has always been a challenging topic due to the low healing capacity of PLC injuries. Authors performed posterior cruciate ligament reconstruction using semitendinosus tendon graft and reconstruction procedure of PLC using free gracilis tendon graft with LaPrade technique in a patient with multiple ligament injury of the knee. A 36-years-old male patient complained of pain on his right knee. On physical examination, the posterior drawer test, dial test, and varus stress test were positive. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) on right knee showed that the posterior cruciate ligament (PCL), lateral collateral ligament, and popliteofibular ligament were injured but the popliteus tendon was still intact. A semitendinosus tendon was harvested from the ipsilateral pes anserinus region for posterior cruciate ligament reconstruction. Posterolateral corner reconstruction was done by grafting two gracilis tendons from ipsilateral and contralateral sides using LaPrade technique. The semitendinosus tendon graft had been used for PCL reconstruction in some cases besides the hamstring tendon graft and provides a clinically evident reduction in symptoms and restores satisfactory stability. The LaPrade technique for PLC reconstruction was one of the earliest descriptions of a surgical option to recreate the anatomy of the three main static stabilizers of the PLC. We reported a reconstructive procedure for PCL and PLC injury of the knee by using semitendinosus and gracilis tendon graft with LaPrade technique.

Published: August 2020

The challenge in management of chronic retro-pharyngeal abscess lies in its proximity to vascular and neurological structures, the access to the abscess should be possible after evaluation of neurological stability and integrity of vascular structures. Tuberculous chronic retro-pharyngeal abscess is an unusual situation. And due to its scarcity, it is not considered in differential diagnosis which delays its management: this could lead to permanent neurological deficit and higher rates of mortality. This the case of a young 29-year-old male, already undergoing anti-tuberculosis treatment for 2 months for a tuberculous lymphatitis, and no history of immuno-suppression, presenting with a large retropharyngeal abscess, with no neurological symptoms or any other specific symptoms. The management of this disease can be simple provided the diagnosis is not delayed, the patient had no complications, and the follow up is performed by a team: otolaryngologist, a neurosurgeon and a phthisiology specialist.<p> </p>
