title: The challenge of school time extension in two contexts: Federal District (Brazil) and Catalonia (Spain)

description: Abstract The present article contemplates an analysis on the extension of the school time in the basic education; and evidences that the subject has occupied great space in the international literature. In Brazil, he comes to gain relevance with the new reorganization of secondary education. Because this is a comparative study, the article focuses on the experience of organizing school time in the Federal District (Brazil) compared to Catalonia (Spain); and based on the diversity of terms and concepts, the study focuses the analysis of the student’s daily time. With that, it presents as results the differences in the organization of the daily school day, in the autonomy and in the infrastructure of the educational centers of the two contexts. And he concludes, among others, that this expansion requires the assessment of the opinions of different interlocutors and the context in which the proposal will be developed.

title: Concentration of collagen fibers in the musculature of broiler chickens fed with cupuacu seed by-product

description: ABSTRACT In this essay, we quantify the concentration of collagen fibers in broiler chickens exposed to increasing concentrations of cupuacu seed by-product. Collection of material was carried out in five chickens per treatment at 70 days old in the groups: control, 5% and 10% inclusion of cupuacu seed by-product. Fragments of Thoracic Pectoralis (PT) and Iliotibial lateralis (ITL) muscles were prepared for light and electronic microscopy. The amount of collagen fibers in the muscle groups was 1.08±0.61% in the PTC group; 6.24±2.58% in PT5% and 7.30±2.75% in PT10%. In the Iliotibial Lateralis groups, the results were 6.96±3.14% in the ITLC; 7.43±4.22% in the ITL5% and 8.66±2.35% in ITL10%. The amount of collagen fibers in the ITL5% and ITL10% groups showed no significant statistical difference. However, when compared to the ILTC group, there was a significant statistical difference. The PT muscle responds to standard nutritional changes, unlike the ILT muscle, which requires a high-nutrient formulation. The use of 5% cupuacu seed by-product has proven to be a viable alternative source of animal feed, as it promotes an increase in the concentrations of collagen fibers in the musculature of broiler chickens and is possibly the determining factor in meat texture.

title: Role of ambulation to prevent venous thromboembolism in medical patients: where do we stand?

description: Abstract Venous thromboembolism (VTE) encompasses the spectrum of manifestations of deep venous thrombosis and/or pulmonary embolism and is a common, serious, and preventable complication in hospitalized patients. Although immobility plays an important role in determining VTE risk in medical patients, no clear and uniform criteria exist to guide clinicians in assessing immobility. The variation in the descriptions that do exist makes it difficult to interpret and compare the results of randomized clinical trials with respect to the influence of different levels of immobility on the magnitude of VTE risk and the role that early ambulation as an isolated factor plays in prevention of such events. Understanding these limitations is a prerequisite for the proper use and interpretation of VTE risk assessment tools and for indicating the best strategy for preventing venous thrombosis in hospitalized medical patients. The objective of this study was to review the main evidence reported in the literature on the role of ambulation in prevention of VTE.

title: Playing in Pedagogy students’ discourses: suspended certainties

description: Abstract This article analyzes a series of speeches about playing, produced by Pedagogy students at a university in southern Brazil. Whereas the National Curriculum Guidelines for Early Childhood Education (2009) sets playing as one of the axes of the curriculum for this stage of basic education, the question proposed to students was: what is the purpose of play? The analysis, inspired by the perspectives of Philosophy and Sociology of Childhood, found the recurrence of the following ideas: children today do not play anymore; children are born already playing; playing allows knowing children better; a child who does not play does not learn; you cannot play only for the sake of it; playing is the best medicine. This research recommends the need to discuss these views, opening the perspective for the production of other positions about playing, deriving from, perhaps, what children themselves would say about it.

title: Contextualization factors in texts written by a deaf student

description: Abstract The aim of this work is to analyze the learning process of a deaf student from activities carried out in a writing workshop in Portuguese offered by a non-deaf teacher. Questions: 1) How does a deaf student manage, in his texts, contextualization factors, the elements that embed the text in a certain communicative situation? and 2) to what measure is the teacher´s intervention necessary to make the student understand the use of titles in texts? Comparisons of 29 complete texts were made, emphasizing the construction of titles. The main transformations were: 1) attention to spelling; 2) paragraph use; 3) title refinement; 4) calculation of the possible interpretation of the readers; 5) use of connectors; 6) verb conjugation and 7) syntax. Regarding the writing of titles, the pedagogic activity was seen to be fundamental to the deaf student’s achievement of this competency.

title: Use of infrared thermography to evaluate the inflammatory reaction in cat testis after intratesticular injection of 0.9% NaCl or 20% CaCl2 with 1% lidocaine

description: ABSTRACT Due to the doubts and questions about the inflammatory reaction caused by chemical castration, this study aimed to use infrared thermography to detect, evaluate and monitor the inflammatory reaction caused by the intratesticular injection of calcium chloride (CaCl2) 20% with lidocaine 1%. For this, thermographic measurements were taken before (M0), 10 minutes (M1), 1 and 6 hours (M2 and M3), for 7 consecutive days (M4 to M10), at 15 (M11), 30 (M12) and 60 (M13) days after intratesticular injection. Additionally, changes to testicular tissue and effects over spermatogenesis were evaluated by andrological exam before (M0) and 60 days (M13) after intratesticular injection. All cats were orchiectomized at M13, and testicles were submitted to histological analysis. CaCl2 (20%) with lidocaine (1%) administration produced testicular tissue damage and interfered with the spermatogenesis in 70% of treated cats without exacerbating the inflammatory reaction or impairing the cat’s welfare. It was concluded that thermographic evaluation is a useful, efficient, easy and quick method to diagnose and monitor cat testicular inflammatory reactions.

title: Advanced Oxidation Processes to the Remediation of Liquid Residue from the Thermal Treatment of Oily Sludge

description: This work reports the remediation of a liquid residue derived from the thermal treatment of petrochemical residues by advanced oxidation processes. Firstly, degradation studies of phenol aqueous solutions by heterogeneous photocatalysis, Fenton, and photo-Fenton were conducted. Fenton processes showed a higher efficiency, mainly in the UVA photo-assisted mode (94% in 3 min), and henceforward it was chosen for the remediation of the residue. However, the high organic load of the raw residue (6,000 mg L-1 of chemical oxygen demand (COD)) limited the efficiency of the Fenton processes. Hence, the raw liquid residue was diluted with the scrubber residue, produced during the thermal treatment of the petrochemical residues, reducing the COD to values close to 2,000 mg L-1. The photo-Fenton treatment allowed the removal of approximately 95% of the COD load, decreasing the residual concentration of phenolic compounds from 213 to 0.5 mg L-1. At the same time, the concentration of BTEXs (benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene and xylene) were reduced to values lower than the limit of quantification (LOQ) of the chromatographic technique. Therefore, the photo-Fenton process is an efficient alternative to the remediation of residues with high complexity and with high COD values, like the ones obtained in the petrochemical industry.

title: Ligand and Solvent Effects on the Structural and Optical Properties of Au13L83+ Clusters: a Density Functional Theory Study

description: Density functional theory (DFT) calculations have been performed to develop a systematic structural analysis of Au13L83+, where L = SCH3, SeCH3, SCH2OCH3 and S(CH2)2NH2, in order to examine the influence of different ligands. Binding energy calculations indicate that the gold core is more stabilized by the ligand in the following sequence S(CH2)2NH2 &gt; SCH2OCH3 &gt; SeCH3 &gt; SCH3. Natural bond orbital (NBO) analysis describes the interaction between the gold and the ligands, showing that the strongest electron donation occurs from a lone pair orbital on the sulfur and selenium atoms to the antibonding acceptor σ* (Au-S) and σ* (Au-Se) orbitals, respectively. The NBO analysis allowed to understand the origin of enhanced stability of the [Au13(S(CH2)2NH2)8]3+. Time-dependent DFT (TDDFT) calculations have been performed to simulate the optical absorption spectra of Au13L83+ in gas phase and under the effect of solvents with different polarities. The absorption spectrum of [Au13(S(CH2)2NH2)8]3+ shows a spectral profile that differs considerably from the others in gas phase and which is strongly affected by the solvent.

title: Kindergarden teacher training for inclusion of students with special educational needs: a collaborative research

description: Abstract The aim of this article is to describe the results of a collaborative research on teacher training for the inclusion of students with special education needs (SEN) in an early childhood education center. The methodological processes were based on the prospect of reflexive teacher training such as knowledge about the care of students with SEN in a school context. The methodological process complied with the premises of collaborative research and was carried out in three phases: training needs assessment, collaborative intervention process and final evaluation. Ten teachers participated in the training. The results showed that in the initial phase the teachers had difficulties carrying out the inclusion of students with SEN in the class. By means of study cycles, reflections about the teaching practices based on theoretical contents studied and the participation of the researcher in the classroom with the teachers, it was possible to identify that the teachers became more confident to carry out the inclusion of these students with SEN.

title: A time series analysis of meteorological factors and hospital outpatient admissions for cardiovascular disease in the Northern district of Guizhou Province, China

description: Findings on the effects of weather on health, especially the effects of ambient temperature on overall morbidity, remain inconsistent. We conducted a time series study to examine the acute effects of meteorological factors (mainly air temperature) on daily hospital outpatient admissions for cardiovascular disease (CVD) in Zunyi City, China, from January 1, 2007 to November 30, 2009. We used the generalized additive model with penalized splines to analyze hospital outpatient admissions, climatic parameters, and covariate data. Results show that, in Zunyi, air temperature was associated with hospital outpatient admission for CVD. When air temperature was less than 10°C, hospital outpatient admissions for CVD increased 1.07-fold with each increase of 1°C, and when air temperature was more than 10°C, an increase in air temperature by 1°C was associated with a 0.99-fold decrease in hospital outpatient admissions for CVD over the previous year. Our analyses provided statistically significant evidence that in China meteorological factors have adverse effects on the health of the general population. Further research with consistent methodology is needed to clarify the magnitude of these effects and to show which populations and individuals are vulnerable.

title: Performance of crossbred lactating cows at grazing in response to nitrogen supplementation and different levels of concentrate feed

description: ABSTRACT The performance of crossbred (1/2 Holstein x Zebu) cows supplemented on Brachiaria decumbens pasture during the wet-dry transition period was evaluated. Eight cows with 497±50kg, during third and fourth lactations and after the lactation peak were distributed in two 4 x 4 Latin squares. The treatments consisted of a factorial with two types of mineral supplements (nitrogenous and mineral salt) and two levels of concentrate (0.3 and 0.6% body weight (BW)/cow/day), based on corn and soybean meal (60:40), and supplied during the morning and afternoon milking. The experiment lasted 56 days, divided into four periods of 14 days, with seven days for adaptation and seven for data collection. No interaction (P&gt; 0.05) was observed between the supplements and the concentrate levels. The nitrogenous salt and the highest concentrate level increased (P&lt; 0.05) the intake of crude protein, and the highest concentrate level increased (P&lt; 0.05) the intake of non-fibrous carbohydrates and the digestibility of crude protein. No effect (P&gt; 0.05) of supplement and concentrate level was observed on the milk constituents and feed efficiency. Grazing crossbred after the lactation peak during the wet-dry transition period achieve the productive potential with 0.3% BW of concentrate per day and mineral salt.
