RESUMO
O objetivo deste artigo é identificar os artefatos gerenciais utilizados no processo de gestão das entidades religiosas. Para tanto, foi realizada uma pesquisa do tipo survey em três entidades religiosas do Triângulo Mineiro, sendo duas no município de Uberlândia e a outra em Tupaciguara, todas pertencentes à Igreja Presbiteriana do Brasil. Por se tratar de entidades religiosas, essas se classificam como do Terceiro Setor, sem fins lucrativos. Trata-se de uma pesquisa descritiva, sendo de natureza quantitativa. Para a coleta de dados, foram aplicados questionários aos gestores das entidades religiosas. Como resultado, obteve-se um grau de concordância médio no que tange à utilização dos artefatos gerenciais nas entidades, um grau considerado relativamente alto, principalmente, em se tratando de Uberlândia, cidade de grande porte da região do Triângulo Mineiro. Verificou-se, especificamente, que o orçamento apresentou-se como o artefato gerencial mais utilizado. Conclui-se que as entidades religiosas apresentam rotinas simples, ligadas à captação de recursos e administração desses, sem utilizar de algum software específico para gestão, estando o processo respaldado em um padrão, sendo esse o próprio orçamento anual, para assim atingir seus objetivos.

Abortion Practices in Nepal: What does Evidence Show?
Authors: Bhandari TR , Dangal G 
Published: August 2015

Twenty-five years have passed since the global community agreed in Nairobi to address the high maternal mortality by implementing the Safe Motherhood Initiative. However, every year around 22 million women seek unsafe abortion in developing countries. Globally, the unsafe abortion accounts for 13% maternal deaths. Out of the total aborted women, around five million women were admitted to hospitals as a result of unsafe abortion. Similarly, more than three million women suffer from severe complications from unsafe abortion every year. In 2002, responding to the public voices and high attribution of unsafe abortion on maternal mortality, Nepal granted legal access to safe abortion introducing safe abortion act. Women can seek abortion up to 12 weeks of gestation for any indication. However, sex selective pregnancy termination is prohibited in Nepal. This study aimed to assess the results of various studies on abortion practices in Nepal. Literature published in PubMed, Lancet, Medline, WHO and Google Scholar web pages from 1990 to 2014 were used to prepare this paper. From 2004 to 2014, more than half a million women sought safe abortion care in Nepal. Despite the considerable progress, unsafe abortion is still a major issue in Nepal as it has been estimated that it constitutes half of all abortions undertaken every year. Published literature further showed that still an unmet need of safe abortion services exists in Nepal. However, the overall awareness of legal abortion was found to be high among Nepalese women. We found negative attitude of most people towards women who sought abortion care. Similarly, a large number of unmarried women were found at risk for seeking abortion care due to socio-cultural norms, values and stigmas in Nepal.

Published: August 2015

Aims: This study was done to review the primary reasons and pattern of obstetric cases referred to Tribhuvan University Teaching Hospital, and to identify the clinical course, mode of management, maternal and perinatal outcomes. Methods: This prospective observational study reviewed 112 obstetric cases referred from various centers. Thorough history was taken; complete physical and obstetric examination and relevant investigations were done. Management of the patient, clinical course, mode of delivery, both maternal and perinatal outcomes were documented. Results: Most common diagnosis at referral was medical disorders complicating pregnancy (38%) among which cardiac disease accounted for 20%, followed by hypertensive disorder (17%). Unavailability of perinatal facility was the most frequent reason (24%) for referral. Twenty seven percent of the patients were in serious or critical condition on arrival, 52% patients required surgical intervention, 19% received intensive care management and there were mortalities of 2 women (1.8%). Total number of live births were 70 (62.5%) among which 28 (42%) required neonatal admission and 3 (4% of live birth) had early neonatal death. Conclusions: Wide spectrum of complicated obstetric cases were referred to this hospital. Unavailability of perinatal facility was the most common reason for referral followed by unavailability of physician. Most common diagnosis at the time of referral was medical disorders complicating pregnancy.

Authors: Onyiriuka AN , Ikeanyi EM 
Published: August 2015

Aims: The aim was to determine the sex ratio at birth in St Philomena Catholic Hospital (SPCH), Benin City, south-south, Nigeria and to assess its relationship with birth order and maternal age. Methods: In this retrospective cohort study, the records of all deliveries at St Philomena Catholic Hospital (SPCH), Benin City, Nigeria between 1st January, 2005 and 31st December, 2014 (10 years) were retrieved and analyzed. Stillbirths and infants with ambiguous genitalia were excluded in the analysis. Results: The total number of live-births during the 10-year period under review was 13,702 and these consisted of 7,007 males and 6,695 females, resulting in a sex ratio of 104.7:100 (approximately 1.05) at birth. The yearly sex ratios varied from 1.01 to 1.14. The maternal age and the birth order significantly influenced offspring sex ratio at birth (p < 0.001). The highest sex ratio was found among third-birth-order offspring and the lowest was found among offspring of fifth-birth order and above. Offspring of mothers aged 25-29 years had the highest sex ratio and those of mothers aged 40 years and above had the lowest sex ratio. Conclusions: The sex ratio at birth in south-south Nigeria is comparable to values obtained from south-west Nigeria but lower than that obtained from north-west Nigeria. The birth order and maternal age influenced the offspring sex ratio at birth.

Purpose: To describe the food security status, food insecurity coping strategies, characteristics, and experiences of student clients of the Campus Food Bank (CFB) at the University of Alberta in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. Methods: A convenience sample of 58 students completed a survey from April 2013 to April 2014. Food security status was determined using the “Adult Food Security Survey Module”. Results: Ninety percent of CFB student clients who participated in this study were food insecure, which included both moderately and severely food insecure groups. The most prevalent coping strategies for food insecurity included applying for a loan or bursary (86.2%), seeking employment or working more hours (84.5%), and purchasing food using a credit card (77.6%). Participants were a diverse mix of students, including graduate students (50.0%), international students (46.6%), and caregivers of children (24.1%). The most common primary sources of income were government student loans (29.3%) and research assistantships (20.7%). Most participants (82.8%) liked the food they received from the food bank. Conclusions: Food insecurity is highly prevalent among student clients of this university-based food bank. Students used a variety of coping strategies to increase their disposable income, highlighting the need for additional strategies to alleviate food insecurity among vulnerable students.

Published: August 2015

Abstract The purpose of this study is to compare the differences in flexural strength and compressive strength between four resin-modified luting glass ionomer cements that are commonly used in clinics. Furthermore, this study investigates the influence of curing mode on the flexural strength and compressive strength of dual-cured resin-modified glass ionomer cements. Initially, flexural strength and compressive strength test specimens were prepared for RL, NR, GCP, and GCC. The RL group and NR group were cured by the light-curing mode and chemical-curing mode. Five specimens were prepared for each test group, and the flexural strength and compressive strength of each were measured. Data were analyzed by one-way ANOVA with SPSS 13.0. Furthermore, the fracture morphology of the flexural specimens was observed by SEM. The result of the mean flexural strength of each group is as follows: the NR light-cured group > NR chemically-cured group > GCP > RL light-cured group > GCC > RL chemically-cured group. More specifically, the flexural strength of the NR light-cured group ((42.903±4.242) MPa) is significantly higher (P<0.05) than those of the other groups, and in addition, the flexural strength of the light-curing mode is significantly higher (P<0. 05) than that of both the NR and RL chemically-cured groups. The result of the mean compressive strength of each group is as follows: GCP > NR chemically-cured group > NR light-cured group > GCC > RL light-cured group > RL chemically-cured group. Although the compressive strengths of the NR and GCP groups are higher than those of the GCC and RL groups, there are no significant differences (P>0.05) between NR and GCP, and no significant differences between GCC and RL. Furthermore, there are no significant differences (P>0.05) between the two curing modes on NR and RL. From the present study, it can be concluded that NR has superior flexural strength and compressive strength compared to the other three materials. Additionally, the curing mode can affect the flexural strength of dual-cured RMGIC because with the light-curing mode, the flexural strength is higher than with the chemical-curing mode. Therefore, light curing is an essential procedure when using dual-cured RMGIC in clinics.

Published: August 2015

Abstract This study aimed to set evaluation indicators, i.e., perceptibility and acceptability color difference thresholds, of color stability for acrylic denture base resins for a spectrophotometric assessing method, which offered an alternative to the visual method described in ISO 20795-1:2013. A total of 291 disk specimens 50±1 mm in diameter and 0.5±0.1 mm thick were prepared (ISO 20795-1:2013) and processed through radiation tests in an accelerated aging chamber (ISO 7491:2000) for increasing times of 0 to 42 hours. Color alterations were measured with a spectrophotometer and evaluated using the CIE L*a*b* colorimetric system. Color differences were calculated through the CIEDE2000 color difference formula. Thirty-two dental professionals without color vision deficiencies completed perceptibility and acceptability assessments under controlled conditions in vitro. An S-curve fitting procedure was used to analyze the 50:50% perceptibility and acceptability thresholds. Furthermore, perceptibility and acceptability against the differences of the three color attributes, lightness, chroma, and hue, were also investigated. According to the S-curve fitting procedure, the 50:50% perceptibility threshold was 1.71ΔE00 (r2=0.88) and the 50:50% acceptability threshold was 4.00 ΔE00 (r2=0.89). Within the limitations of this study, 1.71/4.00 ΔE00 could be used as perceptibility/acceptability thresholds for acrylic denture base resins.

Published: August 2015

Abstract The unique micro porous structure of expanded polytetrafluoroethylene (ePTFE) that allows bio-integration for fixation, as well as overall mechanical integrity make it used successfully in a number of biomedical and clinical applications, which include the reconstruction of the pulmonary valve in in right ventricular outflow tract reconstruction (RVOT) operations. The objective of this study was to determine the effects of the thermal treatment on physical and mechanical properties of ePTFE membranes. ePTFE sheets were cut into 16 rectangle strips (10 mm by 60 mm) and evenly separated into 4 groups. One group was the blank control (group A), while the rest of the three groups (group B to D) were heated to 350°C and cooled to 24°C at different cooling rates (10°C/min, 20°C/min and rapid ambient air cooling) in a temperature controlled atmosphere. The mechanical and morphological characteristics of all the samples were tested using a tensile test machine and a scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The results show that the elastic modulus of group B to D was 24.95%, 33.45% and 72.76% higher than group A. The percentage elongation of groups B to D was found to be between 2.3% and 40.45% lower than group A. The proportion of pores in the ePTFE membrane was reduced following the thermal treatment. There were no morphology differences observed between groups B to D. In summary, the selection of cooling rate was important for preserving the mechanical properties of ePTFE membranes under thermal treatment. These findings may provide useful information for the preparation of molded ePTFE valve in RVOT operations.
