title: Vascular Forum: collective intelligence in the resolution of vascular clinical cases

description: Abstract Background Collective intelligence is extremely important in collective groups that discuss clinical medical cases, assisting professionals in their decision-making processes, and consequently, helping their patients. Objectives To evaluate the rate of resolution and characteristics of the clinical discussions carried out in a private instant messaging group and its clinical applicability. Methods Retrospective analysis of clinical discussions and events on the Vascular Forum, an open group for specialists accessed with mobile devices. Results From July 2015 to July 2017, 1013 subjects were discussed among 680 members. Twenty-six (2.57%) of these subjects were curiosities, 101 (9.97%) related to diagnostic doubts, 492 (48.57%) to treatment doubts, and 205 (20.24%) to general doubts, while 189 (17.5%) were case reports. The mean number of interactions per event was 16.599 (±1.366). The mean time from posting of a new subject to the first reply was 42.14 (±7.55) min. The subject discussed was miscellaneous in 358 cases, venous in 336 cases, lymphatic in 15 cases, and arterial in 304 cases and the total number of replies was 15985. Conclusions Interaction between experts using instant messaging technology proved capable of raising subjects for discussion and eliciting management approaches quickly. The rate of resolution, defined as the time taken for the first correct answer to be posted, was also high. The Vascular Forum proved to be a tool of great clinical value for its participants, confirming the importance of collective intelligence in medicine.

title: Optimum Weed Control Method Increases the Yield of Kinnow by Improving the Physical Properties of Soil

description: ABSTRACT: Going towards sustainable fruit culture, it is very important that soil fertility should maintain by adopting the proper weeds control and adding the organic matter. This research was carried out to identify the most suitable weed control method for Kinnow orchard. The plants of Kinnow at the age of 6 years grown under drip irrigation were selected. Weeds of orchard were managed by mulching (wood chip and black polyethylene), mechanical (cultivator and rotavator) and chemical (glyphosate) methods. Mechanical weed control was taken as control treatment. The plants where wood chip mulching was used for weed control showed maximum increase in shoot length (24.00 cm), chlorophyll contents (84.00 SPAD value) and yield (11.88 ton ha-1) followed by the plants where weeds were controlled with chemical control while lowest shoot length (12.00 and 12.33 cm), chlorophyll contents (41.00 and 42.67 SPAD value) and yield (3.80 and 4.70 ton) was achieved in cultivator and rotavator treatment respectively. Wood chip mulch also improved soil physical properties by reducing bulk density (1.49 Mg m-3), soil penetration resistance (785.33 kPa) and by enhancing soil organic matter (1.17%), hydraulic conductivity (34.50 mm/hr-1) and soil microbial biomass carbon (159.68 g kg-1) followed by glyphosate control while lowest values of soil physical properties were obtained in cultivator and rotavator weed control. Wood chip mulch also reduced weed dry weight (45.25 g) and efficiently controlled weeds (95.66%) as compared to other weed control methods. In this case, wood chip mulch performed better in all studied parameters than plastic mulch, rotavator, cultivator and glyphosate weed control. So, wood chip mulch should be recommended to citrus grower for improving soil physical properties and yield.

title: Scientific practice in literary studies: from academic literacy practices to epistemological characteristics

description: ABSTRACT This article aims to analyze the configuration of literary practices in literary studies. For such, eight academic articles from this field published in journals with different classifications according to Qualis Capes 2013-2016 in Linguistics and Literature were selected, and a questionnaire was applied to seven students and professionals who work in the field of literary studies. The data are analyzed based on contributions from the New Literacy Studies, specifically the approaches of Academic Literacy and Socio-discursive Interactionism. The results show that academic literacy practices of the field are characterized by an interpretative stance, interdisciplinarity, and the prevalence of literary texts, demonstrating their predisposed nature towards epistemological conceptions and how the academic article genre is constructed.

title: Application of the Finite-Difference Frequency-Domain (FDFD) method on radiowave propagation in urban environments

description: Abstract In this work a Finite-Difference Frequency-Domain (FDFD) propagation method for complex urban environments is proposed. The formulation starts from the discretization of the Helmholtz equation for the magnetic field instead of the usual separate one order derivative Ampere's and Faraday's laws. The Stretched Coordinate Perfectly Matched Layer (SCPML) is used as an absorbing boundary condition. These procedures produce less field components to estimate and achieve high wave absorption at the computation domain boundaries. The main goal is the rigorous prediction of VHF/SHF signals in real urban scenarios through the evaluation of several propagation mechanisms: direct rays, diffraction, reflection and refraction effects. The method is validated through an analytic problem and preliminary results are generated by two case studies: a cellular system measurement campaign and an idealized urban scenario.

title: Planning and understanding the intensive care network in the State of Rio de Janeiro (RJ), Brazil: a complex societal problem

description: ABSTRACT Objectives: To determine the optimal number of adult intensive care unit beds to reduce patient's queue waiting time and to propose policy strategies. Methods: Multimethodological approach: (a) quantitative time series and queueing theory were used to predict the demand and estimate intensive care unit beds in different scenarios; (b) qualitative focus group and content analysis were used to explore physicians' attitudes and provide insights into their behaviors and belief-driven healthcare delivery changes. Results: A total of 33,101 requests for 268 regulated intensive care unit beds in one year resulted in 25% admissions, 55% queue abandonment and 20% deaths. Maintaining current intensive care unit arrival and exit rates, there would need 628 beds to ensure a maximum wait time of six hours. A reduction of the current abandonment rates due to clinical improvement or the average intensive care unit length of stay would decrease the number of beds to 471 and 366, respectively. If both were reduced, the number would reach 275 beds. The interviews generated 3 main themes: (1) the doctor's conflict: fair, legal, ethical and shared priorities in the decision-making process; (2) a failure of access: invisible queues and a lack of infrastructure; and (3) societal drama: deterioration of public policies and health care networks. Conclusion: The queue should be treated as a complex societal problem with a multifactorial origin requiring integrated solutions. Improving intensive care unit protocols and reengineering the general wards may decrease the length of stay. It is essential to redefine and consolidate the regulatory centers to organize the queue and provide available resources in a timely manner, by using priority criteria, working with stakeholders to guarantee clinical governance and network organization.

title: Chemical Weed Control in Paddy Fields Inoculated with Azospirillum lipoferum

description: ABSTRACT: Herbicides, as a major part of weed control strategy in paddy fields, have different impact on growth and activity of soil-beneficial bacteria such as Azospirillum species. A field experiment was conducted at Sefid Rood Livestock and Agricultural Company, northern Iran, to investigate the possibility of chemical weed control in paddy fields inoculated with Azospirillum lipoferum. The experiment was designed in a factorial arrangement based on a randomized complete block with three replicates. The factors were Azospirillum application (inoculation with or without Azospirillum lipoferum) and weed management regime (butachlor application with supplementary hand-weeding, bensulfuron methyl application with supplementary hand-weeding, combination of butachlor and bensulfuron methyl application with supplementary hand-weeding, hand-weeding at 15, 30, and 45 days after transplanting, and no weeding [not weeded during the rice-growing period). The results showed that plants inoculated with A. lipoferum produced 19% higher grain yield compared to plants that were not inoculated. The highest grain yields were recorded for plots treated with butachlor with supplementary hand-weeding (4,512 kg ha-1) and for those treated with a combination of butachlor and bensulfuron methyl with supplementary hand-weeding (4500.5 kg ha-1). The lowest yield (3494.3 kg ha-1) was recorded for weedy plots. No significant interaction was detected between A. lipoferum application and weed management regime for grain yield, indicating that the herbicides had no adverse effect on the efficiency of A. lipoferum in promoting growth and grain yield of rice. There was no significant difference in the dry weights of weed between inoculated and non-inoculated plots. The dry weights of weed in hand-weeded and herbicide-treated plots were significantly lower than that of the weedy plot. In conclusion, the result of this experiment confirms the possibility of chemical weed control in paddy fields inoculated with A. lipoferum.

title: Mineralogical and chemical attributes of soils from the Brazilian Atlantic Forest domain

description: ABSTRACT: The Atlantic Forest is one of the most important and yet the most devastated Brazilian biome, occupying in the past the majority of the East Atlantic Coast. Therefore, a detailed knowledge of the soils near the coastal line influenced by this biome is essential for land use and management of these environments. The aim of this study was to acquire a deeper knowledge of the chemistry, mineralogy and genesis of soils in two micro-watersheds of the Atlantic Forest Biome. Eight soil profiles were sampled and described along one transect. Both young and more developed soils exhibit low fertility and low Fe2O3 content. The Oxic Dystrudepts are less dystrophic than the other soils studied and exhibit greater availability of K+, due to the mixing of weathered material and primary minerals. Transitions from shallow to deep soils are more common in rejuvenated landscapes. All soils are kaolinitic (Kt), with low levels of goethite (Gt) and hematite (Hm), and contain secondary 2:1 minerals such as mica (Mi) and, in the youngest soils, hydroxy-interlayered vermiculite (HIV) and interstratified mica-hydroxy-interlayered vermiculite (Mi-HIV). The widespread presence of gibbsite (Gb) in soils, including the Lithic Udifolist, indicates high rates of both pedogenesis and morphogenesis. The gibbsite showed good crystallinity suggesting that climate, terrain and good drainage favored its formation and stability.

title: Brazil and Argentina: interaction in the virtual world and education (initial and continuing) of Spanish teachers

description: ABSTRACT This article presents a research which, through the combination of initial and continuing education, aims at evaluating if the interaction, mediated by digital genres in a Virtual Learning Environment, can result in the mobilization of discursive types that indicate the learning of a proposed content. In order to generate data, there was an intervention of formative character, which happened by means of an online course - via Moodle Platform - whose participants were sixteen Brazilians in continuing education, who teach the Spanish Language in public schools belonging to the regional nucleus of the city of Apucarana, and sixteen Argentinians from Córdoba National University (UNC) in initial education. The data generated were analyzed taking into consideration the genres as psychological instruments of mediation (SCHNEUWLY, 2010) and the interaction responsible for fostering learning (VIGOTSKI, 1994; 2002). The results indicate that interaction, both among tutor/participants and participant/participants, mediated by the virtual forum, and associated to the other resources available at Moodle, can lead to the learning of the proposed content.
