title: Association between malocclusion, tongue position and speech distortion in mixed-dentition schoolchildren: an epidemiological study

description: Abstract Background Malocclusions are highly prevalent in childhood and adolescence, being considered a public health problem worldwide, in addition to be considered an important predictor in the tongue position and speech disorders. Objective Evaluate the association of malocclusions with tongue position and speech distortion in mixed-dentition schoolchildren from the south of Brazil. Methodology This cross-sectional study was performed using a database of an epidemiological survey realized in the southern of Brazil, in 2015, for evaluating the dental and myofunctional condition of the mixed-dentition from 7-13 years’ schoolchildren. The outcome variables were tongue position and speech distortion, evaluated by a trained and calibrated examiner. Characteristics regarding sociodemographic and oral health measures (Angle’s classification of the malocclusion, overjet, overbite, posterior crossbite and respiratory mode) were also assessed. Poisson regression models with adjusted robust variance were used to evaluate the association among predictors variables in the outcomes. Results are presented as prevalence ratio (PR) and 95% confidence interval (95% CI). Results A total of 547 children were evaluated. Schoolchildren who presented anterior open bite (PR 2.36 95%CI 1.59-3.49) and having oral/oral-nasal breathing (RP 2.51 95%CI 1.70-3.71) are more likely to have altered position of the tongue. Both deep bite and being male represent protection factors for the abnormal tongue position. Regarding speech distortion, deep overbite presents a protective relationship to speech distortion (PR 0.41; 95%CI 0.24-0.71), whereas schoolchildren with posterior crossbite were more likely to present this problem (PR 1.77; 95%CI 1.09-2.88). Conclusion Anterior open bite and posterior crossbite were the malocclusions related to speech distortion and/or altered tongue position. Oral/oral-nasal breathing was also related to myofunctional changes. Deep bite malocclusion was a protective factor for both speech problems and altered tongue position when compared to a normal overbite.

title: Factors associated with depression, anxiety and stress among dentists during the COVID-19 pandemic

description: Abstract The objective of this work was to evaluate the relationship between factors associated with the COVID-19 pandemic and depression, anxiety, and stress (DAS) in dentists. Factors associated with the COVID-19 pandemic were evaluated using a questionnaire and scores of the Depression, Anxiety, and Stress Scales-21 were measured. The differences between the DAS scores based on the factors associated with the COVID-19 pandemic were tested through the successive application of multivariate analysis of variance (MANOVA, α = 0.05). After a sample size calculation, 998 participants with a mean age of 39.39 (± 11.69) years were included. The effect size indicated that changes in sleep quality (η2 = 0.161), eating habits (η2 = 0.057), and physical health (η2 = 0.051) were the ones that most negatively affected DAS scores. The highest DAS scores were observed in professionals who lived with someone at high-risk for COVID-19 (p &lt; 0.001) and in those who did not engage in leisure activities during the pandemic (p &lt; 0.001). Dentists who worked on the frontline against COVID-19 had higher scores of anxiety and stress (p = 0.029). The highest scores for anxiety, depression, and/or stress were seen in dentists living with someone at high-risk for COVID-19, who acts on the frontline, who does not practice in leisure activities during the pandemic, who completely changed eating habits, quality of sleep and physical health during the pandemic. In general, DAS levels of dentists were associated with factors related to the COVID-19 pandemic.

title: General aspects of the COVID-19 pandemic

description: Abstract Objectives: to review the available literature on the general aspects of SARS-CoV-2 infec-tion. Methods: this is a narrative literature review carried out from March to September 2020. Results: COVID-19 caused by the new coronavirus or SARS-CoV-2, grows with devas-tating effects worldwide. The literature describes epidemiological data and mortality risk groups of the disease, which presents a high rate of transmission. Prevention is the most effective way to fight the disease, persisting the absence of strong evidence on the treatment. Vaccines are not yet available. Dexamethasone is effective in reducing mortality in severe forms. Conclusions: despite great efforts, as the number of confirmed cases increases, evidence on transmission, incidence, disease progression, lethality, effects and outcomes remain limited and without any high levels of evidence. Studies are still necessary for all aspects of the disease.

title: Physiological changes in soybean cultivated with soil remineralizer in the Cerrado under variable water regimes

description: Abstract: The objective of this work was to evaluate the influence of the soil remineralizer fine-graded mica schist (FMS) on soybean (Glycine max) physiology, yield, and grain quality under different water regimes (WRs) in the Brazilian Cerrado. The experiment was conducted under field conditions for two years, using four WRs and three treatments: mica schist, conventional fertilization, and control. In 2017 and 2018, the following WRs were evaluated: WR1, WR2, WR3, and WR4, corresponding to a mean value of 100, 65, 44, and 28% of crop evapotranspiration replacement, respectively. Photosynthesis, stomatal conductance, transpiration, internal CO2 concentration, effective quantum yield of photosystem II (PSII) (Fv’/Fm’), quantum yield (PSII) (ᶲFSII), and electron transport rate reduced as a function of the advanced phenological stage of soybean and the reduction in WR. Grain quality was only affected by the WR. The mica schist was statistically similar to conventional fertilization and the control in 2017 and 2018. Yield decreased due to the anticipation of soybean phenological age and WR, but there were no differences between the three treatments in 2017 and 2018. The reduction in soybean yield is attributed to stomatal closure, loss of photoprotective capacity, and damage to the photosynthetic machinery caused by drought.

title: Gas exchange in maize as a function of aeration porosity in a cohesive soil

description: ABSTRACT Due to their physical characteristics, cohesive soils of either low or high aeration porosity can intensify limitations on plant cultivation. With the hypothesis that moist cohesive horizons where the soil has not yet reached a hard to extremely hard consistency may present a level of aeration porosity that affects gas exchange in maize plants, the aim of this study was to understand the influence of a cohesive horizon at different levels of aeration porosity on gas exchange in maize. The experiment was conducted in Fortaleza in the state of Ceará in a screened and covered environment, in a completely randomised block design with five levels of aeration porosity (AP) (0.04, 0.06, 0.09, 0.11 and 0.13 m3 m-3) and six replications, giving a total of 30 experimental units. The variables under analysis were intrinsic permeability (Kar) and gas exchange. Increases in AP afforded an increase in Kar. The AP of 0.04 and 0.13 m3 m-3 reflected in lower values for the photosynthetic rate (A) (24.54 and 25.50 µmol CO2 m2 s-1 respectively) and internal CO2 concentration (140.72 and 118.66 µmol mol-1 respectively). With the increase in AP, stomatal conductance and transpiration were reduced by 18% and 13.6% respectively, while the increase in intrinsic carboxylation efficiency was 19%, and intrinsic water use efficiency, 21%. It was concluded that variations in aeration porosity in cohesive soils affected gas exchange in maize plants. The AP of 0.04 and 0.13 m3 m-3 reduced the value of A due to non-stomatal and stomatal limitations respectively.

title: Detecting desertification in different years and rainfall regimes by 2D Scatter Plot

description: ABSTRACT The desertification process causes soil degradation and a reduction in vegetation. The absence of visualisation techniques and the broad spatial and temporal dimension of the data hampers the identification of desertification and rapid decision-making by multidisciplinary teams. The 2D Scatter Plot is a two-dimensional visual analysis of reflectances in the red (630 - 690 nm) and near-infrared (760 - 900 nm) bands to visualise the spectral response of the vegetation. The hypothesis of this study is that visualising the reflectances of the vegetation by means of a 2D scatter plot will allow desertification to be inferred. The aim of this study was to identify desertified areas and characterise the spatial and temporal dynamics of the vegetation and soil during dry (DP) and rainy (RP) periods between 2000 and 2008, using a 2D scatter plot. The 2D scatter plot generated by the Envi® 4.8 software and the reflectances in bands 3 and 4 of the TM5 sensor were used within communities in the Irauçuba hub (Ceará, Brazil). The concentration densities of the near-infrared reflectances of the vegetation pixels were observed. Each community presented pixel concentrations with reflectances of less than 0.4 (40%) during each of the periods under evaluation, indicating little vegetation development, with further degradation caused by deforestation, the use of fire and overgrazing. The 2D scatter plot was able to show vegetation with low reflectance in the near infrared during both dry and rainy periods between 2000 and 2008, thereby inferring the occurrence of desertification.

title: Effects of floral therapy on labor and birth: a randomized clinical trial

description: ABSTRACT Objectives: to assess the effects of floral therapy in the face of factors that boost pain in the parturition process and its results in the duration of labor. Methods: this is a randomized, controlled and triple-blind clinical trial. We selected 164 pregnant women with gestational age ≥37 weeks, cervical dilation ≥4 cm, randomly divided into floral therapy and placebo group. Results: the Five Flower floral essence proved to be effective, considering the factors that boost pain in labor. Experimental Group did not show an increase in contractions, unlike Control Group, which presented an increase of one contraction for mothers in active phase and amniorrhexis. The Five Flower essence proved to be effective in reducing labor time by 1:30h from the beginning of the intervention at birth. Conclusions: floral therapy proved to be effective in pain management, reflecting positively in its brevity, qualifying its outcome.

title: CHALLENGES OF UNIVERSITY STUDENT PERMANENCE: A STUDY ABOUT THE TRAJECTORY OF STUDENTS ASSISTED BY STUDENT ASSISTANCE PROGRAMS

description: ABSTRACT: This article discusses student permanence in Brazilian public higher education based on a study conducted at the Federal University of São Paulo. In the study, we sought to understand how a group of college students assisted by student assistance programs build their academic trajectory, considering their asymmetric socioeconomic background. This article analyzes part of the data from the in-depth interviews carried out in this research. It can be observed that the trajectory of students coming from social classes different from those that traditionally occupied the public university coexists with contradictions that make their permanence in the university a constant challenge. Elements of the material world, linked to financial subsistence, and symbolic, linked to the perception of belonging, indicate that the passage through the public university does not guarantee, in itself, changes in the way these students are perceived from the social "place", although these perceptions do not prevent students from overcoming the symbolic barriers of discrimination and exclusion and seeking ways to equalize the standard condition of the university student.
