Authors: Oestreich Laura , Menezes Karla Mendonça , Encarnação Rosiele Oliveira da , Klein Vanessa , Muenchen Cristiane 
Published: July 2020

O uso de agrotóxicos tem se configurado como um problema global, sendo o Brasil o país líder no emprego desses insumos no mundo. Considerado um tema controverso, o emprego de agrotóxicos tem suscitado debates sob o enfoque Ciência Tecnologia Sociedade (CTS). Para além das salas de aula, essas discussões, devem estar presentes na sociedade favorecendo os processos de participação social. Diante deste contexto, este estudo investigou as concepções de diferentes atores da sociedade acerca dos agrotóxicos e da sua utilização. A pesquisa do tipo qualitativa foi concebida por meio de um questionário semiestruturado, composto por nove perguntas, desenvolvido em uma plataforma on-line e compartilhado em diferentes redes sociais. As respostas foram analisadas de acordo com a metodologia de Análise de Conteúdo. Os resultados evidenciaram que grande parte dos participantes se posiciona contra a utilização dos agrotóxicos, mas entendem que esses ainda são essenciais. Em contrapartida, a produção de orgânicos foi enfatizada como alternativa com potencial para transformar essa realidade. Em conclusão, os participantes deste estudo têm acesso à informação, no entanto, ainda não se percebem enquanto sujeitos participantes deste processo, capazes de transformarem sua realidade. Assim, o encorajamento dos sujeitos para a participação social por meio da discussão acerca de temas controversos, articulados e em sintonia com o PLACTS, dentro dos mais diversos espaços de educação se mostra imperativo a fim de superar uma cultura do silêncio, dando voz a sujeitos que tão pouco sabem do poder político que têm em suas mãos.

Published: July 2020

Dental trauma is one of the most common causes of post-eruptive intrinsic color changes in teeth. The dissatisfaction with smile aesthetics is one of the main motivators for seeking dental procedures such as tooth bleaching, which stands out for being a little-invasive procedure with immediate and satisfactory aesthetic results. The objective of this paper is to describe a case report of a 24-year-old patient who attended the Postgraduate Program in Dental Clinic Practice at the Piracicaba Dental School – University of Campinas, which involved as main complaint tooth darkening after trauma in childhood. Internal bleaching of a dental element was performed using sodium perborate and distilled water associated with in office external bleaching with 37% hydrogen peroxide to provide a more harmonious smile to the patient. The association of bleaching techniques is an alternative widely indicated and effective in cases where it is desirable to maintain the integrity of dental elements, especially in young patients, avoiding more invasive restorative procedures and resulting in patient satisfaction.

Published: July 2020

A produção agrícola em todo o mundo é afetada por vários tipos de doenças causadas por bactérias, que podem reduzir a quantidade e a qualidade da produção, com isso a utilização de produtos nocivos à saúde humana tornou-se prática corriqueira para a produção e oferta de alimentos para população. Diante deste cenário, a sociedade se depara com o desafio de aumentar a disponibilidade de alimentos e diminuir a aplicação de defensivos, os quais causam danos ao meio ambiente e o bem-estar da população. Diante do exposto, o estudo teve como objetivo analisar a produção científica internacional sobre a temática do uso de óleo essenciais no controle de bactérias fitopatogênicas, por meio do emprego da bibliometria. Utilizou-se as bases de dados Web of Science e Scorpus, além do software Vantage Point para organização e tratamento dos dados no período de 20 de fevereiro à 20 de março do ano de 2018. Utilizando a busca generalizada, sem especificar bactérias fitopatogênica, teve-se resposta de 10343 artigos nas bases, com a especificação teve-se um retorno de 111 publicações. A área de pesquisa relacionada nas duas bases com maiores publicações foi a Química totalizando 37 artigos (33% da amostra total). Dentre os países com maior número de publicações tem-se: Peru; Itália, Tunísia e Índia em ordem decrescente. Foram identificados 276 autores diferentes, sendo de origem da Tunísia e Turquia os que mais produziram em ambas as bases. A produção científica continua com baixa taxa de publicações, a pesquisa na área de controle de bactérias apresentou nos últimos anos um crescimento importante, porém discreto quando comparado com o controle de bactérias fitopatogênicas.

odontoid fracture AOSF with lag screw is the reference technique in unstable fracture. Various other treatment modalities have been described in the literature; however author finds the ASOF technique to be reasonable with less intraoperative and post-operative complications. Moreover the rate of bony fusion is also high and post-operative mobilization in case of ASOF.
Material and Methods: This is prospective observational case series. Two cases of odontoid fractures (type II) are reported.
Results and Conclusion: Our cases illustrated that odontoid fracture type II can successfully be managed with AOSF with good post-operative outcome. Union rate of this fracture is high with lag screw fixation (AOSF technique). Nevertheless, due to a limited number of cases author would also like to add that outcome could be better assessed in a larger group of study.

Objective: For Tuberculous spondylitis (TS) the optimal mode of management for extensive tuberculous spondylitis is still a subject of debate. We determined the outcome for single stage anterior decompression and cage fixation for dorso-lumbar TS.
Material and Methods: This prospective study was conducted between 2012 and 2018. Worsening or new onset neurological deficit, increasing deformity, large paraspinal abscess and those not responding to anti-tuberculous drug therapy were included. Patients with severe comorbidities (> ASA class III) and recurrent cases were excluded. Demographics, clinical features, radiological characteristics, intraoperative details, postoperative complications and follow-up condition were recorded.
Results: One patient with mean age of 45.6 ± 14.9 years with 17 (54.8%) males and 14 (45.2%) females. Mean symptoms duration was 71.9 ± 29.4 days. 41.9% had spasticity & 25.8% had sphincter dysfunction on presentation. Half (48%) of patients had a Frankel grade 3 or less bilaterally. Mean length of the procedure was 137.4 ± 19.9 minutes. 19.4% (n = 6) had postoperative pulmonary complications, 16.1% (n = 5) wound infection, 9.7% (n = 3) had worsening of neurologic deficit and one (3.2%) remained static. Graft extrusion and cage subsidence were noted in one (3.2%) patient each. Favorable outcome was observed in 83.9% (n = 26) while 16.1% (n = 5) had unfavorable outcome. Mean out-of-pocket cost was 164677.4 ± 11469.9 rupees (USD: 1187 approx).
Conclusion: Timely spinal decompression with stabilization at the onset of the Pott’s disease in patients who fulfil the criteria as surgical candidates carries a promising outcome.

Objectives: Aim of this study is to evaluate the intimal vessel wall thickness in smoker and their co-relation with non-smoker and also surgical management of stenosis.
Material and Methods: It is a prospective study of 55 cases. Study span and follow up duration were 4 months. Our patients were presented with the history of CVA (Cerebrovascular accident), hypertension, diabetes, and headache.
Results: In all patients, the carotid doppler ultrasound was done and their intimal vessel wall thickness was noted. Our 78% patients were smoker and non-smoker was 22%. In our study, 52% patients had CVA, 41% patients had hypertension, 30% patients had headache and 9% patients were also obese. Forty three smokers used to take 15 – 25 cigarettes daily. Among 43 patients, 5 patients were females. In carotid Doppler study, intimal thickness was increased in 87%, the plaque was observed in 49% and stenosis was observed in 38% cases. In 18 % patients, who had stenosis > 70%, carotid endarterectomy was performed and in rest of the patients medical treatment done.Patients who were chronic smokers and had medical co-morbidities showed greater thickness of intimal layer of vessels on carotid Doppler. In 6 patients, post-operative headache occurred.
Conclusion: Smokers had more thickness of intimal layer of carotid vessels. Carotid endarterectomy yields good results in case of stenosis more than 70%.

Published: July 2020

Objective: To study the efficacy and safety of far-lateral transcondylar approach for anterior foramen magnum lesions with early experience at our Institute.
Material and Methods: We treated six patients, with lesion anterior to the foramen magnum and posterior to the brainstem and cervical cord in a period of 2 years, March 2017 to March 2018.Initial assessment was made by history and examination followed by CT scan and contrast MRI. All were treated using far-lateral transcondylar approach.
Result: Among six patients, there were two were male and four were female. Three of these patients had a meningioma while two patients had neurofibromas and one clival chordoma. Total excision was achieved in five neoplastic cases, while subtotal excision was done in one case. There were no fresh postoperative deficits in any of the other patients. One patient had an unexplained sudden cardiorespiratory arrest 18h after the surgery and succumbed. One patient had cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) discharge from the wound, which was satisfactorily managed by lumber CSF drainage.
Conclusion: This approach provides an excellent approach to lesions located anterior to foramen magnum posterior to the brainstem and upper cervical cord. Gross total excision of these benign and malignant lesions is safely possible through this approach.
