title: Basic metadata scheme for the descriptive representation of works of art in Brazilian museums

description: Abstract This paper examined international guidelines for the descriptive representation of museum objects to propose, based on such guidelines, a basic metadata scheme to represent artworks considering the Brazilian scenario. This proposal is justified, since part of local museums clearly stated that they are not cataloguing their collections and another part does not adopt standardized resources for that activity. The methodology applied in this research was based on: a) the Terminology literature, used to compare and to analyze metadata, and b) the International Standard Organization nº 25964-1/2 as well as on the international literature, used to perform a mapping and a crosswalk of the selected guidelines in this investigation. As a result, a concrete metadata scheme was developed as a methodological guide for the basic descriptive representation of artwork collections in Brazil; in addition, suggestions were made for its implementation in the national scenario. The application of such scheme was tested and validated using a small sample of artworks that sought to include different categories of this type of work available in Brazilian museums. It is believed that the implementation of a minimum metadata scheme in the cataloguing activity of Brazilian museums may enhance the information organization of artworks and contribute to the consistency of information retrieval. Moreover, it may maximize the access to the information of artwork collections located in Brazil for national and international audiences. The analysis of international guidelines for the information representation of museum objects draws attention to an urgent necessity of using processes, procedures, and collection management policies. For this purpose, these fundamental components must be aligned to promote best practices. A future experimental investigation should include more types of artworks in the sample to verify different implementations of the basic metadata schemes proposed as well as to observe and to identify conditions and attributes not predicted in the use of the proposal.

title: For a decolonial social epistemology

description: Abstract The visualization of Information Science as a postmodern science must aim at overcoming borderline dominant models, surpassing simplistic methodological impasses, and covering complex phenomena. In this regard, the article is inserted in the epistemological discussions, selecting social epistemology and decolonial thought as its themes. Its purpose is to identify the possible convergences between decolonial thought and social epistemology and, based on that, to propose, in an essay-like way, a decolonial social epistemology. In the methodological aspect, this is an exploratory, qualitative, and bibliographic research. The technical procedure for the analysis of the bibliography took place using a non-probabilistic approach, by judgment. The main result of this article is the construction of a historical and epistemological panorama that makes possible the approximation of thematics that, although produced in different contexts and interests, converge in a common objective: that of constituting a social, democratic epistemic field and that does not disregard the different subjects of knowledge. Thus, the reflections that combine the proposal of social epistemology with the decolonial thought or movement may bring theoretical panoramas and perspectives closer to the professional practice and research aimed at the 21st century informational context.

title: A method for creating semantic thesauri of requirements using the SKOS ontology

description: Abstract Problems related to requirements specification, such as ambiguity and incompleteness, are still recurrent within information system development processes. Reusing requirements is one of the mechanisms that can help reduce these setbacks. In this sense, this paper aims to propose a method for creating and publishing reuse-oriented semantic thesauri of requirements, using the Semantic Web’s technologies and standards, and following the principles of Linked Data. The central ontology used for a formal description of these thesauri is the Simple Knowledge Organization System. This ontological model provides a set of thesaurus-creating axioms and properties, allowing accurate and reliable documentation of the definition, hierarchy, and other interrelationships among a system’s requirements, in a knowledge graph. We present a prototypical Web service that functions as a repository for reuse and demonstrates the method in practice. We also describe a study about the feasibility of the proposal, which was carried out with professionals and included a group discussion and later, the completion of individual evaluation questionnaires. The study’s results were mostly favorable, and some suggestions for improvement were appointed. The participants considered the proposal relevant to Requirements Engineering and with potential for expansion, since the guidelines presented allow the creation of new kinds of inference and navigability over the stored requirements.

title: Invisible science: publication of negative research results

description: Abstract An important part of scientific research activities yield negative results – non-confirmatory and null data, inconclusive experiments, unexpected data. These results permeate the entire research cycle and constitute an important part of the full scientific knowledge flow generation. However, despite the acknowledgment that it is the non-confirmatory findings that result in the rejection of consolidated hypotheses that drive the progress of science, most of these investigation routes are not documented. Growing competition for resources, tenure, and impact publications induces researchers to produce “positive” results that are more likely to be published, interfering with the principles of science reproducibility and self-correction and in the scientific communication cycle. This study aims to review negative results incorporation in the traditional academic publication cycle. It also seeks to identify and systematize the main barriers that prevent researchers from publishing negative results. This exploratory study is based methodologically on the scarce literature on the subject. It confirms the initial assumption that few scientific journals accept, edit special issues or are dedicated to the publication of negative results.

title: FRBR and RDA based metadata applications in digital institutional repositories: a systematic review of literature

description: Abstract Given the technological transformations in the field of Descriptive Cataloging, especially in the bibliographic domain, and the development of conceptual models, such as the Functional Requirements for Bibliographic Records and the proposal of the Resource Description and Access guidelines for the description of resources, it is necessary to understand how such initiatives relate to digital institutional repositories. The objective of this research was to study the Functional Requirements for Bibliographic Records and Resource Description and Access established in the bibliographic domain, in order to identify the state of the art of the currents trends of the bibliographic domain and if they can be applied to digital institutional repositories. The theoretical and methodological support of the Systematic Literature Review provided the mapping and identification of the key elements to answer the research question. Twenty five documents were analyzed in the Systematic Literature Review, which can be considered a relatively low index on the scientific production consistent with the research proposal, pointing to the need for further studies on the subject. Computational technologies, use cases, and specific applications were identified in bibliographic, academic, and web-based environments. The state of the art provided in this research constitutes a starting point for the development of tools and applications that bring the bibliographic domain closer to digital institutional repositories.

title: The prestige of the academic publishers with books in Social Sciences and Humanities in Brazil

description: Abstract Book are important means of scientific communication in the Social Sciences and Humanities. That is why their correct evaluation should be continuously improved. In this article, we present the different methodologies for the valuation of academic books applied by the Brazilian and Spanish agencies, as well as the results of a study about the prestige of publishers. The questionnaire through which the data was obtained was sent to 16,542 directors of research groups in humanities and social sciences, and 1,977 answers (12%) were obtained. The results are novel, as it is the first time that a study regarding the quality perception of publishers in Brazil is carried out based on the specialists’ opinions. The most prestigious publishers in the area of Education are presented and, as in other areas, there is a small nucleus of Brazilian publishers that concentrate the most votes. In the case of foreign publishers, prestige is not so concentrated, with Portugal, France or Spain as the origin countries of these publishers. These results can serve as a guide of scientific evaluation processes in Brazil. In addition, the research might provide editors with knowledge about how they are perceived and help authors choose a publisher to submit their manuscripts.

title: Motor development in non-microcephalic infants born to mothers with Zika Virus infection during pregnancy

description: ABSTRACT This cross-sectional study sought to evaluate motor development in infants exposed to ZIKV born with normal head circumference (HC). Thirty one children, distributed into two groups, participated in the study: 15 whose mothers were infected by ZIKV during pregnancy, born with HC from −1.9 to +2 Z-scores, adjusted for sex and gestational age (exposed group); and 16 randomly selected infants without known prenatal exposure to ZIKV, paired by sex and age (control group). Alberta Infant Motor Scale (AIMS) was used to evaluate gross motor development. We found no significant difference between the exposed and control groups. However, considering that AIMS is a screening test that assesses only the gross motor development and the small size of our sample, infants exposed to ZIKV during pregnancy should be continuously evaluated for different aspects of their development.

title: Upper limb function in ambulatory and non-ambulatory patients with Duchenne muscular dystrophy

description: ABSTRACT New treatments proposed for patients with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) have their efficacy evaluated by lower limb tests. However, upper limb function tests evaluate both ambulatory (A) and non-ambulatory (NA) people. Thus, this work aimed to compare the upper limb function of patients A and NA with DMD and to correlate disease staging and upper limb function. This is a cross-sectional study in which patients were divided into A and NA according to the Vignos scale. Subsequently, the upper limb function was evaluated by the performance of upper limb (PUL) scale. The independent t-test, chi-square test, Mann-Whitney test, linear regression and Spearman’s correlation test were performed by SPSS, version 22. The research dealt with 51 patients, 20 A and 31 NA. There were differences between the groups reference age (p=0.001), body mass index (BMI) (p=0.016), schooling (p=0.011), Vignos score (p&lt;0.001) and upper limb function (p&lt;0.001). The linear regression analysis showed that whether the patient was A or NA influenced the upper limb function in 18 points on the PUL scale. There was a strong correlation between disease staging and upper limb function (r2=−0.769, p&lt;0.001). The functional condition of the upper limb depends on whether the patient is A or NA, being worse function in NA patients. We concluded that the upper limb function has a strong correlation with the staging of the disease.

title: Effect of low-level laser therapy on pain and function of patients with shoulder tendinopathy: A systematic review

description: ABSTRACT Among the various existing physiotherapeutic interventions, low-level laser therapy (LLLT) is broadly used for treating musculoskeletal disorders. Evidence suggests that LLLT is effective in modulating inflammatory mediators, contributing to tissue repair and thus being indicated for the treatment of inflammatory conditions in general. However, heterogeneous results have been reported regarding its efficacy for shoulder tendinopathies. Thus, the aim of this study was to systematically review randomized controlled trials on the effects of LLLT on pain and function outcomes of patients with shoulder tendinopathy. Two reviewers independently searched the PubMed, SciELO, Cochrane, and PEDro databases. We included randomized controlled trials of humans diagnosed with shoulder tendinopathy and treated with LLLT, with outcome measures of pain and/or function. The risk of bias of each study was assessed using the PEDro scale. Eight studies (73%) were considered as having low risk of bias and three (27%) were considered as having high risk. Eleven studies, involving 486 participants, were included in this review. LLLT showed statistically significant pain reduction in 45% of the studies, and only one study demonstrated a statistically significant increase in function. Further systematic reviews are still needed for assessing the additive effect of LLLT with exercise, as well as the effect of LLLT using recommended dosages in the treatment of shoulder tendinopathy.

title: Factors associated with adherence to physical activity groups in primary health care

description: ABSTRACT This study aimed to verify the users’ adherence to physical activity groups conducted by physical therapists at primary health care (PHC) and their related factors. This is a cross-sectional quantitative study. A semi-structured questionnaire and an adapted adherence questionnaire were applied, which investigate general factors, motivators, and obstacles that can affect adherence. The sample was divided into three groups according to adherence: 1-30% of frequency in 6 months as low adherence; 31 to 70% as medium adherence; and above 71% as high adherence. The groups were compared by Kruskal-Wallis and ANOVA tests, and the association was evaluated by multinomial logistic regression. Regarding adherence results, 46.8% of the sample had low, 42.2% medium, and 11% high adherence among the 154 participants, with a mean age of 58.98±11.54 years for general factors, barriers and motivators were different (p&lt;0.05) between groups, and lower reporting of general non-adherence factors reduced the chance of medium adherence to groups. The longer participation time in the groups increased the chance of average and high adherence across the sample. We conclude that the knowledge of the factors that positively affect adherence, such as time of participation, willingness, and interest, facilitate the development of strategies by PHC professionals for its maintenance. The results showed that there are factors that affect the adherence of groups in PHC.

title: Main prognostic factors and physical therapy modalities associated with functional recovery in patients with peripheral facial paralysis

description: ABSTRACT Patients with peripheral facial paralysis (PFP) have some degree of recovery. The aim of this study was to evaluate prognostic factors and physical therapy modalities associated with functional recovery in patients with PFP. This is a cohort study with 33 patients. We collected the following variables of patients who underwent treatment at the rehabilitation center: age, sex, risk factors, affected side, degree of facial paralysis (House-Brackmann scale), start of rehabilitation, and therapy modality (kinesiotherapy only; kinesiotherapy with excitomotor electrotherapy; and kinesiotherapy with excitomotor electrotherapy and photobiomodulation therapy). The outcomes were: degree of facial movement (House-Brackmann) and face scale applied 90 days after treatment. Degree of PFP was associated with functional recovery (RR=0.51, 95% CI: 0.51-0.98; p=0.036). The facial movement was associated with the time to start rehabilitation (r=−0.37; p=0.033). Lower facial comfort was observed among women, worse ocular comfort was associated with diabetes mellitus, worse tear control with prior PFP, and worse social function with the degree of PFP. Our results indicate that the all modalities present in this study showed the same result in PFP. Recovery of PFP was associated with degree of nerve dysfunction, the length of time to onset of rehabilitation, female sex, hypertension, diabetes mellitus, and previous PFP, all of which were associated with worse outcomes on the face scale.
