title: Professional trajectory of medical course alumni from from Campinas University, São Paulo, Brazil: graduates’ point of view in evaluating the course

description: The School of Medical Sciences of UNICAMP implemented a new curriculum in 2001, predating the national guidelines. This study analyzed the professional trajectory and the new curriculum’s impact. Graduates from 1991 to 2005 were grouped in the pre-curricular renovation group, and those from 2006 to 2012 in the post-group. A semi-structured survey was sent through e-mail and social media. There were 213 (15.8%) answers from pre-renovation group and 126 (16.1%) from post. Data showed low geographic dispersion of alumni, 2.4 work posts per physician, residency as a necessary complementation, suggestions for curricular inclusion of management issues and higher frequency of preparatory courses for residency in post-renovation group. There are signs of better integration between basic and clinical areas after the reform. Alumni showed positive perceptions regarding their undergraduate course. The study contributes to the implementation of systematic follow-up of graduates.

title: Factorial structure of the Beck Depression Inventory for depression in university students

description: ABSTRACT Objective To explore the dimensionality of the Beck Depression Inventory (BDI) among Colombian college students. Methods A validation study was designed, involving the participation of a sample of 786 health science students (medicine, nursing, and psychology) aged between 18 and 27 (M=20.0, SD = 1.9). The participants completed the 21-item BDI. Internal consistency was calculated (Cronbach's alpha and McDonald's omega) and dimensionality was demonstrated using factorial confirmatory analysis (CFA). Results The Kaiser-Meyer-Olkin (KMO) measure of sampling adequacy was high (0.898) and the Bartlett's sphericity test gave excellent results (chi-square = 3,102.60; df = 210; p &lt; 0.001). One-, two- and three-dimensional models were used. The unidimensional model performed best, representing 24.8% of the total variance, high internal consistency, a Cronbach's alpha of 0.83 and a McDonald's omega of 0.84. However, the CFA did not fit adequately (chi-square = 583.79; df = 189; p &lt; 0.001, RMSEA = 0.052, CI 90% 0.047-0.056, CFI = 0.87, TLI = 0.85 and SMSR = 0.04). Conclusions The best factor solution for the BDI is given by the unidimensional model, which presents high internal consistency. However, its adjustment in the CFA is not acceptable.

title: Physicochemical Characterization of a Crude Anthocyanin Extract from the Fruits of Jussara (Euterpe edulis Martius): Potential for Food and Pharmaceutical Applications

description: In the present research effort, production of a crude anthocyanin extract from the fruits of jussara (Euterpe edulis Martius) was pursued. The physico-chemical characteristics of the crude anthocyanin extracts were evaluated via Fourier transform infrared spectrophotometry, X-ray diffraction, X-ray fluorescence, computed tomography via X-ray transmission, UV-Vis spectrophotometric scannings, differential scanning calorimetry, antimicrobial activity, anthocyanin quantification, total phenolic content, thin layer chromatography for sugars and pigments, free radical 2,2-diphenyl-1-picryl-hydrazil (DPPH) scavenging activity and antioxidant activity via the molybdenum phosphate complex. The results gathered suggest that the crude anthocyanin extracts had both obvious antioxidant activity and radical scavenging effects with the DPPH assay, and light antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus, further suggesting that this crude pigment extract might be a valuable addition for either food or pharmaceutical applications.

title: Expanded perlite/cork fillers applied to aerospace insulation materials

description: Abstract Insulations for rocket motors such as Flexible Thermal Protections (FTPs) and Rigid Thermal Protection (RTPs) act as thermal barriers against the hyperthermal environment from the solid propellant combustion. FTPs present dual function: to extend RTPs performance, and to attenuate the propellant contraction. FTPs used in the Brazilian Space Program have asbestos in their composition since the 70´s; however, they are hazardous for human health. In this context, a mixture of Expanded Perlite (PExp) and Cork Powder (CP) was investigated as a replacement for asbestos. Results showed reduction about 21 % in density and an increase of 13 % in the ablative properties. The low mechanical properties not interfere in this type of FTP due to your function of attenuate the propellant contraction.

title: Effect of superior blepharoplasty on tear film: objective evaluation with the Keratograph 5M - a pilot study

description: ABSTRACT Purpose: To evaluate the effect of superior blepharoplasty on the tear film using the corneal topographer Keratograph 5M. Methods: A prospective study was performed of 27 eyes of 14 patients with superior dermatochalasis who underwent superior blepharoplasty between May and June 2016. Conservative upper eyelid blepharoplasty was performed by an en bloc resection of anterior lamellar tissue that included skin, subcutaneous tissue, and the orbicularis oculi muscle. All the eyes were imaged using the noninvasive tear breakup time tools of the Keratograph 5M. The following parameters were recorded in each patient before and 6 weeks after surgery: first noninvasive Keratograph 5M tear breakup time (the time at which the first breakup of tears occurs) and average noninvasive Keratograph 5M tear breakup time (the average time of all breakup incidents). The exclusion criteria were ophthalmological pathology, previous eyelid surgery, use of eye drops, systemic pathology, and medication that interferes with lacrimal tears. Results: The mean age of the patients was 65.1 years (range, 51-84); 86% were female. Student’s t-test was used to compare the values of first and average noninvasive Keratograph 5M tear breakup times before and after surgery. The values for first noninvasive Keratograph 5M tear breakup time evaluated before and after surgery were not significantly different (9.04 and 8.71, respectively; p=0.926). The values for average noninvasive Keratograph 5M tear breakup time evaluated before and after surgery were also not significantly different (13.01 seconds and 13.14 seconds, respectively; p=0.835). Conclusions: The results of this pilot study suggest that upper blepharoplasty does not affect tear breakup time according to the objective evaluation of breakup time with the Keratograph 5M.

title: The relationship between topical anti-glaucoma medications and the development of lacrimal drainage system obstruction

description: ABSTRACT Purpose: To evaluate whether any topical anti-glaucoma medications increase the risk of lacrimal drainage system obstruction or whether the presence of preservatives alone is sufficient to generate obstruction. Methods: This nested case-control study compared a group of patients with lacrimal duct obstruction who received topical anti-glaucoma medications to a control group of patients without obstruction. Results: The medical records of 255 patients with glaucoma who consulted the Oculoplastic Section with complaints of watery eyes were reviewed. Among these patients, 59 exhibited lacrimal drainage obstruction. Ninety-four percent of patients with lacrimal drainage obstruction used beta-blockers, and 41% used prostaglandin analogs. A logistic regression model was used to adjust for age, sex, and the use of other medications. No significant differences were observed regarding the topical anti-glaucoma medications used between groups. Conclusion: No single topical anti-glaucoma medication demonstrated a stronger association with the development of lacrimal duct obstruction.

title: Immanuel Kant’s system of layers of institutional acculturation applied to Higher Education in Administration

description: Abstract This reflective-theoretical article evaluates concepts of Immanuel Kant (1724-1804) in order to build a theoretical instrument capable of indicating guidelines for planning practices to be adopted in Higher Education in Administration. The study describes the basic concepts about knowledge, reason and judgments, presenting an illustrative model in which some clarifications and fruitful interpretations in the review and establishment of Administration courses are evidenced. This is the first stage of theorization, which must be followed by technical work aiming at the implementation of the ideas presented in this study.

title: The positive moderating effect of absorptive capacity on R&D investment: the case of Argentina’s ict firms

description: Abstract The model analyzes the positive moderating role of absorptive capacity (ACAP) in the innovative outcomes of the firms. It focuses on ACAP as a moderating variable of the innovative efforts that firms develop or have the chance of incorporating from outside and not just as an antecedent of the innovation results. The empirical evidence collected comes from a study conducted on 189 SMEs working in IT services in Argentina and the results prove the main hypothesis of how ACAP is a positive moderating factor of the innovative effort of firms, even in the case of the connections created by their the participation in international networks not having a high correlation. Some suggestions for policymaker managers and future lines of research are provided.

title: Electrocardiographic features of Crioulo mares in different pregnancy stages

description: ABSTRACT Pregnancy can cause several physiologic changes in mares, including modifications in cardiac output and heart positioning. Therefore, these changes could influence electrocardiographic parameters in various stages of pregnancy. This study aimed to evaluate the electrocardiogram of Crioulo mares in different pregnancy stages. Nine non pregnant mares (G0), 11 mares at three months (G3), 11 mares at six months (G6) and 11 mares at 10 months of pregnancy (G10) were submitted to electrocardiographic evaluation. There was higher (P= 0,002) heart rate of G10 (60.45±12.16bpm) when compared to other groups (G0=45.67±10.75bpm; G3=44.91±7.91bpm; G6=46.91±9.12bpm), probably because of an increase in cardiac output to uterine perfusion at the end of pregnancy. Normal sinus rhythm was predominant in most of mares of groups G0, G3 and G6, and sinus tachycardia in most of G10 mares. In conclusion, changes in hemodynamics and in cardiac position can influence on the electrocardiogram of pregnant Crioulo mares, but do not cause relevant rhythm or conduction disturbs.

title: Isomorphism and variation of the school management of the Brazilian public elementary school network

description: Abstract This article discusses the homogeneity and variety of the network of the public education network of Brazilian elementary schools. The theoretical background is based on the contemporary institutional perspective debate about the homogeneity and variation of the organizational field. The study addresses a gap in the literature by focusing on how much structural forms are isomorphics in one organizational field as well as identifying their social consequences. From this, two propositions are presented. The first assumes that there is one educational management model spread in the public education network and the second points to variations related to the performance of schools. A survey was applied to 551 teachers from the municipal network of education of Belo Horizonte (MG). The results show that there is isomorphism in the educational management model based on values of dialogue and participation. However, there are also variations in this model, which are associated to the performance of schools. The article’s main theoretical contribution is the identification of the institutional logics present in an organizational field and its consequences to the organization.
