Abstract
CASE DESCRIPTION A 4-hour-old 6.3-kg (13.9-lb) female alpaca cria was evaluated because of severe respiratory distress and difficulty nursing since birth.
CLINICAL FINDINGS The cria had open-mouth breathing and cyanotic membranes, with no airflow evident from either nostril. Supplemental oxygen was delivered, and the patient was anesthetized and intubated orotracheally; a CT evaluation of the head confirmed bilateral membranous obstruction of the nasal cavities, consistent with complete bilateral choanal atresia.
TREATMENT AND OUTCOME Choanal atresia was treated with an endoscopically assisted balloon-dilation technique, and temporary tracheostomy was performed. Stenosis recurred, requiring revision of the repair and intranasal stent placement 3 days after the first surgery. The tracheostomy tube was removed the next day. Complications during hospitalization included mucoid obstruction of the tracheostomy tube, granulation tissue development in the trachea near the tracheostomy site, mucoid stent obstruction, aspiration pneumonia, and presumed partial failure of passive transfer of immunity. The stents were removed 2 weeks after admission, and the cria was discharged 3 days later. The owner was advised that the animal should not be bred. At last follow-up 3 years later, the alpaca was doing well.
CLINICAL RELEVANCE Surgical treatment with a balloon-dilation technique and placement of nasal stents with endoscopic guidance were curative in this neonatal alpaca with bilateral membranous choanal atresia. Computed tomography was useful to determine the nature of the atresia and aid surgical planning. Because a genetic component is likely, owners should be advised to prevent affected animals from breeding.

Published: April 2017

Background: Liver cirrhosis (LC) is a chronic disease characterized by damage of liver parenchyme with wide fibrosis and nodules formation. One of LC complications is cirrhotic cardiomyopathy (CC). CC is diagnosed when there are more than one of the following signs: diastolic dysfunction (DD), systolic dysfunction (SD), enlargement of the cardiac chamber, electrophysiology dysfunction, and increasing of natriuretic peptide such as N Terminal–Pro Brain Natriuretic Peptide (NT-proBNP). The aim of this study was to determine the correlation between degree of liver cirrhosis and increasing of the NT-proBNP.Method: Cross-sectional analytic study was performed with 72 LC patients from May 2014 to May 2015 in Sanglah General Hospital, Denpasar. Degree of liver cirrhosis was determined by child turcotte pugh (CTP) criteria and NT-proBNP was examined by electro chemiluminescence immunoassay (ECLIA) method. LC patients with other disorders which can cause the increase of NT-proBNP were excluded. Statistical analysis used was Spearman’s correlation test. Results: Of 72 LC patients, 79.2% were male. Patients with CTP A were 9 (12,5%), CTP B 19 (26,4%) and CTP C 44 (61,19%). Median of NT-proBNP in CTP A was 112 pg/mL, CTP B 130 pg/mL, and CTP C 315 pg/ml. There was a strong possitive correlation between degree of liver cirrhosis and NT-proBNP (r = 0.686; p = 0.000). In this study, there was also significant comparison between NT-proBNP and CTP A,B, and C (p = 0,000) and there was no significant relation between NT-proBNP and those cofounding variables (p 0.05).Conclusion: there was a strong possitive correlation between degree of LC and NT-proBNP.
Estresse parental: Revisão sistemática de estudos empíricos
Authors: De Brito Ariane , Faro André 
Published: April 2017

Esta pesquisa descreveu as características de publicações nacionais sobre o estresse parental, indexadas em duas bases de dados eletrônicas brasileiras e de livre acesso (SciELO e PePSIC). Onze artigos empíricos foram analisados na íntegra a partir de seus métodos (participantes e instrumentos), objetivos e principais resultados. Os resultados indicaram que a maioria das produções nacionais sobre estresse parental enfoca o estresse materno e de filhos com alguma condição clínica, além de ser notada ausência de instrumentos válidos para o Brasil que possam mensurar o fenômeno em populações distintas. Estressores presentes dentro do contexto parental podem influir no nível de estresse parental, enquanto que o suporte social recebido pode auxiliar os pais/mães a lidarem de forma adaptativa com a sobrecarga estressora.

A violência entre parceiros íntimos (VPI) é um fenômeno social e um problema de saúde pública. Entretanto, na maioria dos casos, é abordada apresentando a mulher como vítima e homem seu respectivo agressor. Desta forma, a presente pesquisa realizou um levantamento com profissionais e estagiários de psicologia e do serviço social a fim de investigar suas percepções, visões e experiências acerca da violência contra o homem, perpetrada por sua parceira íntima, no município de Juiz de Fora/MG, bem como levantar dados da VPI contra o homem. Para análise utilizou-se estatística descritiva e a Análise de Conteúdo de Bardin. Inicialmente foi feito um mapeamento das instituições e do número de profissionais. Por fim, o estudo entrevistou 40 profissionais e estagiários da psicologia e do serviço social atuantes na área judicial, CRAS e CREAS. Dos resultados 95.0% informaram acreditar que o homem pode ser vítima da VP e 37.5% já atenderam homens. Desta forma, percebe-se a existência da VPI contra o homem no município.

O rejuvenescimento apresenta-se como um recurso para manter-se em um lugar social relacionado ao estar ativo, para entender como pessoas constroem e compartilham conhecimentos cotidianos sobre rejuvenescimento utilizou-se como abordagem teórica a Teoria das Representações Sociais. Objetivou-se estudar as representações sociais das práticas de rejuvenescimento para homens e mulheres adultos. Descritiva e exploratória, envolveu 20 participantes residentes de Santa Catarina. Mediante realização de entrevistas em profundidade formou-se um material textual submetido a classificações hierárquicas descendentes. Resultados indicaram que as mulheres pensam rejuvenescimento enquanto práticas invasivas e minimamente invasivas, e os homens o associam as atividades físicas e leituras. Atividades físicas e exercícios mentais, como retardadores do envelhecimento, organizam a compreensão tanto do rejuvenescimento como das práticas para todos participantes.

Published: April 2017

Os sintomas somáticos sem explicação médica ou manifestações histéricas são freqüentes, estando associados a sofrimento mental em vários contextos. Atualmente são classificados na psiquiatria como transtornos somatoformes (TS). Estudos prévios apontam que as populações latino-americanas são propensas à somatização. No entanto, existem poucos estudos nacionais e locais sobre estes transtornos. Desse modo, este estudo objetivou verificar a ocorrência de TS em mulheres atendidas em um hospital psiquiátrico em São Luis Maranhão. Realizou-se um estudo seccional de base documental apartir dos dados coletados dos prontuários médicos das pacientes atendidas no período de Agosto de 2012 a Janeiro de 2013. Estimou-se a prevalência de TS com base em um total de 1.220 atendimentos, o que resultou em 62 casos de sintomatologia compatível com TS (5,08%), dos quais, apenas 5 receberam diagnóstico conclusivo de TS (8,06%). Os TS diagnosticados pelo CID 10 foram: quatro casos de transtorno dissociativo conversivo e um de neurovegetativo somatoforme. Os transtornos ocorreram mais frequentemente entre mulheres pardas com idade média de 34,3 anos. Os sinais e sintomas mais freqüentes foram insônia, dor de cabeça e inapetência. Os resultados apontam a necessidade de investigações mais minuciosas com os pacientes e auxílio de outros profissionais na composição de uma equipe multidisciplinar na investigação e fechamento do diagnóstico clínico. Levando-se em consideração as reformulações pelo qual o Código Internacional de Doenças versão 10 para as modificações na 11ª edição, estudos sobre os TS contribuirão de forma significativa para o processo de revisão dos sistemas diagnósticos de transtornos mentais e de comportamento.
Action-based Dynamical Modeling for the Milky Way Disk: The Influence of Spiral Arms
Authors: Trick Wilma H. , Bovy Jo , D’Onghia Elena , Rix Hans-Walter 
Published: April 2017

Abstract

RoadMapping is a dynamical modeling machinery developed to constrain the Milky Way’s (MW) gravitational potential by simultaneously fitting an axisymmetric parametrized potential and an action-based orbit distribution function (DF) to discrete 6D phase-space measurements of stars in the Galactic disk. In this work, we demonstrate RoadMapping's robustness in the presence of spiral arms by modeling data drawn from an N-body simulation snapshot of a disk-dominated galaxy of MW mass with strong spiral arms (but no bar), exploring survey volumes with radii

. The potential constraints are very robust, even though we use a simple action-based DF, the quasi-isothermal DF. The best-fit RoadMapping model always recovers the correct gravitational forces where most of the stars that entered the analysis are located, even for small volumes. For data from large survey volumes, RoadMapping finds axisymmetric models that average well over the spiral arms. Unsurprisingly, the models are slightly biased by the excess of stars in the spiral arms. Gravitational potential models derived from survey volumes with at least

can be reliably extrapolated to larger volumes. However, a large radial survey extent,

, is needed to correctly recover the halo scale length. In general, the recovery and extrapolability of potentials inferred from data sets that were drawn from inter-arm regions appear to be better than those of data sets drawn from spiral arms. Our analysis implies that building axisymmetric models for the Galaxy with upcoming Gaia data will lead to sensible and robust approximations of the MW’s potential.
The “UV-route” to Search for Blue Straggler Stars in Globular Clusters: First Results from the HST UV Legacy Survey

Published: April 2017

Abstract
We used data from the Hubble Space Telescope UV Legacy Survey of Galactic Globular Clusters to select the Blue Straggler Star (BSS) population in four intermediate/high density systems (namely NGC 2808, NGC 6388, NGC 6541, and NGC 7078) through a “UV-guided search.” This procedure consists of using the F275W images in each cluster to construct the master list of detected sources, and then force it to the images acquired in the other filters. Such an approach optimizes the detection of relatively hot stars and allows the detection of a complete sample of BSSs even in the central region of high-density clusters, because the light from the bright cool giants, which dominates the optical emission in old stellar systems, is sensibly reduced at UV wavelengths. Our UV-guided selections of BSSs have been compared to the samples obtained in previous, optical-driven surveys, clearly demonstrating the efficiency of the UV approach. In each cluster we also measured the parameter A
+, defined as the area enclosed between the cumulative radial distribution of BSSs and that of a reference population, which traces the level of BSS central segregation and the level of dynamical evolution suffered by the system. The values measured for the four clusters studied in this paper nicely fall along the dynamical sequence recently presented for a sample of 25 clusters.

Abstract
We report the detection of a dust-scattering halo around a recently discovered X-ray transient, Swift J174540.7–290015, which in early 2016 February underwent one of the brightest outbursts (F
X ≈ 5 × 10−10 erg cm−2 s−1) observed from a compact object in the Galactic Center field. We analyze four Chandra images that were taken as follow-up observations to Swift discoveries of new Galactic Center transients. After adjusting our spectral extraction for the effects of detector pile-up, we construct a point-spread function for each observation and compare it to the GC field before the outburst. We find residual surface brightness around Swift J174540.7–290015, which has a shape and temporal evolution consistent with the behavior expected from X-rays scattered by foreground dust. We examine the spectral properties of the source, which shows evidence that the object transitioned from a soft to hard spectral state as it faded below L
X ∼ 1036 erg s−1. This behavior is consistent with the hypothesis that the object is a low-mass X-ray binary in the Galactic Center.
Distribution of Captured Planetesimals in Circumplanetary Gas Disks and Implications for Accretion of Regular Satellites
Authors: Suetsugu Ryo , Ohtsuki Keiji 
Published: April 2017

Abstract
Regular satellites of giant planets are formed by accretion of solid bodies in circumplanetary disks. Planetesimals that are moving on heliocentric orbits and are sufficiently large to be decoupled from the flow of the protoplanetary gas disk can be captured by gas drag from the circumplanetary disk. In the present work, we examine the distribution of captured planetesimals in circumplanetary disks using orbital integrations. We find that the number of captured planetesimals reaches an equilibrium state as a balance between continuous capture and orbital decay into the planet. The number of planetesimals captured into retrograde orbits is much smaller than that into prograde orbits, because the former experience a strong headwind and spiral into the planet rapidly. We find that the surface number density of planetesimals at the current radial location of regular satellites can be significantly enhanced by gas drag capture, depending on the velocity dispersions of the planetesimals and the width of the gap in the protoplanetary disk. Using a simple model, we examine the ratio of the surface densities of dust and captured planetesimals in the circumplanetary disk and find that solid material at the current location of regular satellites can be dominated by captured planetesimals when the velocity dispersion of those planetesimals is rather small and a wide gap is not formed in the protoplanetary disk. In this case, captured planetesimals in such a region can grow by mutual collision before spiraling into the planet and would contribute to the growth of regular satellites.
A Heuristic Approach to Remove the Background Intensity on White-light Solar Images. I. STEREO/HI-1 Heliospheric Images
Authors: Stenborg Guillermo , Howard Russell A. 
Published: April 2017

Abstract
White-light coronal and heliospheric imagers observe scattering of photospheric light from both dust particles (the F-Corona) and free electrons in the corona (the K-corona). The separation of the two coronae is thus vitally important to reveal the faint K-coronal structures (e.g., streamers, co-rotating interaction regions, coronal mass ejections, etc.). However, the separation of the two coronae is very difficult, so we are content in defining a background corona that contains the F- and as little K- as possible. For both the LASCO-C2 and LASCO-C3 coronagraphs aboard the Solar and Heliospheric Observatory (SOHO) and the white-light imagers of the SECCHI suite aboard the Solar Terrestrial Relationships Observatory (STEREO), a time-dependent model of the background corona is generated from about a month of similar images. The creation of such models is possible because the missions carrying these instruments are orbiting the Sun at about 1 au. However, the orbit profiles for the upcoming Solar Orbiter and Solar Probe Plus missions are very different. These missions will have elliptic orbits with a rapidly changing radial distance, hence invalidating the techniques in use for the SOHO/LASCO and STEREO/SECCHI instruments. We have been investigating techniques to generate background models out of just single images that could be used for the Solar Orbiter Heliospheric Imager and the Wide-field Imager for the Solar Probe Plus packages on board the respective spacecraft. In this paper, we introduce a state-of-the-art, heuristic technique to create the background intensity models of STEREO/HI-1 data based solely on individual images, report on new results derived from its application, and discuss its relevance to instrumental and operational issues.
Ringed Accretion Disks: Evolution of Double Toroidal Configurations
Authors: Pugliese D. , Stuchlík Z. 
Published: April 2017

Abstract
We investigate ringed accretion disks composed of two tori (rings) orbiting on the equatorial plane of a central supermassive Kerr black hole. We discuss the emergence of the instability phases of each ring of the macro-configuration (ringed disk) according to the Paczynski violation of mechanical equilibrium. In the full general relativistic treatment, we consider the effects of the geometry of the Kerr spacetimes relevant to the characterization of the evolution of these configurations. The discussion of ring stability in different spacetimes enables us to identify particular classes of central Kerr attractors depending on their dimensionless spin. As a result of this analysis, we set constraints on the evolutionary schemes of the ringed disks relative to the torus morphology and on their rotation relative to the central black hole and to each other. The dynamics of the unstable phases of this system is significant for the high-energy phenomena related to accretion onto supermassive black holes in active galactic nuclei and the extremely energetic phenomena in quasars, which could be observed in their X-ray emission.
A Catalog of Narrow Line Seyfert 1 Galaxies from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey Data Release 12

Published: April 2017

Abstract
We present a new catalog of narrow-line Seyfert 1 (NLSy1) galaxies from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey Data Release 12 (SDSS DR12). This was obtained by a systematic analysis through modeling of the continuum and emission lines of the spectra of all the 68,859 SDSS DR12 objects that are classified as “QSO” by the SDSS spectroscopic pipeline with

and a median signal-to-noise ratio (S/N) > 2 pixel−1. This catalog contains a total of 11,101 objects, which is about 5 times larger than the previously known NLSy1 galaxies. Their monochromatic continuum luminosity at 5100 Å is found to be strongly correlated with Hβ, Hα, and [O iii] emission line luminosities. The optical Fe ii strength in NLSy1 galaxies is about two times larger than the broad-line Seyfert 1 (BLSy1) galaxies. About 5% of the catalog sources are detected in the FIRST survey. The Eddington ratio (

) of NLSy1 galaxies has an average of

of −0.34, much higher than −1.03 found for BLSy1 galaxies. Their black hole masses (

) have an average of

of

, which is less than BLSy1 galaxies, which have an average of

of

. The

of NLSy1 galaxies is found to be correlated with their host galaxy velocity dispersion. Our analysis suggests that geometrical effects playing an important role in defining NLSy1 galaxies and their

deficit is perhaps due to their lower inclination compared to BLSy1 galaxies.
Pouvoir d’agir, en analyse de l’activité
Authors: Brun Gaspard 
Published: April 2017

On ne compte plus les occurrences du terme « pouvoir d’agir » dans les interventions menées sur les situations de travail par le biais de l’analyse de l’activité. L’article vise à présenter les fondements philosophiques de cet usage, essentiellement dans la perspective spinoziste (qui convoque la notion de « puissance d’agir » relevant de la potentia, non de la potestas). D’où la nécessaire prudence terminologique et conceptuelle qui nous invite à mettre en perspective les différents usages de cette expression telle qu’elle peut être formalisée dans des textes de référence en analyse de l’activité et au sein de plusieurs corpus disciplinaires. Nous utiliserons donc une double grille de lecture, philosophique pour l’étude des fondements conceptuels et ergologique pour les enjeux liés à l’analyse de l’activité. En conclusion seront examinés à la lumière de ces avancées les principaux enjeux et points de débats soulevés par notre étude pour la pratique de l’analyse de l’activité.
L’enjeu de la prévention primaire lors des projets de changement : quelle place pour le CHSCT ? Quels apports de « l’expertise » ?
Authors: Ponge Ludovic , Dugué Bernard 
Published: April 2017

Cet article cherche à souligner l’importance de développer la capacité des CHSCT à agir pour une meilleure prise en compte de la prévention primaire dans le cadre des projets de changement. Il s’agit de montrer, à partir de l’identification des obstacles régulièrement rencontrés par les CHSCT dans le cadre des processus de consultation lors de la mise en œuvre d’un changement, comment l’expertise CHSCT peut contribuer à développer la capacité d’action des élus du personnel. Ce regard est porté à partir d’une expertise réalisée sur la réorganisation de l’accueil dans une banque de réseau. Les résultats tendent à montrer l’insuffisance de prise en compte du travail futur probable dans les projets de conception et l’importance pour le CHSCT de se placer dans une posture d’acteur de la prévention. Cette analyse permet d’identifier les axes possibles d’une meilleure prise en compte de la prévention primaire des risques professionnels dans les projets. Elle vise également à interroger les apports de l’ergonomie à ce développement de l’action des CHSCT.
