title: Effect of Hospital Accreditation Process in Outcomes of Patients with Acute Coronary Syndrome

description: Abstract Background: Hospital accreditation has as goal the standardization of patient care, aiming quality improvement. On 2015, a cardiology reference hospital was evaluated and got level 3 from ONA in care given to Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS) patients. Objetive: To compare length of stay (LOS) at Coronary Care Unit (CCU) and the total LOS at the hospital of ACS patients before and after ONA 3 accreditation. Other clinical outcomes were also analyzed. Methods: Systematic and prospective registry of admitted ACS patients at CCU, whose population was divided into pre-accreditation (period 1) and post-accreditation (period 2). Descriptive analysis was performed. For statistical analysis the Mann-Whitney test, chi-squared, Fisher’s exact test and Multiple Linear Regression were performed. P value was considered statistically significant when &lt; 0,05. Results: 372 patients were admitted with ACS, 186 in period 1, of which 47 (25,3%) with ST segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction (STEMI), and 186 in period 2, of which 70 (37,6%) with STEMI. The mean age was 65,9 years (± 12,2). About the CCU LOS, there was a reduction from 3 (IQR: 2-4) to 2,5 days (IQR: 2-4; p value = 0,088). Regarding the hospital LOS, there was also a reduction from 8 (IQR: 5-12,25) to 6 days (IQR:4-11; p value = 0,004). Analyzing the type of ACS, there was a significant reduction only at the hospital LOS in non-STEMI patients: 8 to 6 days (p value = 0,001). Other hospitalization length of stay and clinical outcomes did not present a significant reduction in the comparison. Conclusion: After the ONA 3 accreditation, there was a reduction of hospital LOS. There were no significant differences in the other outcomes analyzed.

title: THE FOOD ACQUISITION PROGRAM AS AN INDUCER OF FOOD SOVEREIGNTY

description: Abstract The objective of this paper is to analyze the Simultaneous Donation Purchase modality of the Food Acquisition Program (PAA) in Mato Grosso state, emphasizing the diversified production, family consumption and promotion of food sovereignty among the peasants and those people served by the program. The four main methodological procedures used were: bibliographic and documentary research, data collection, the elaboration of cartographic representation, and the analysis of primary and secondary data. The primary data were collected from February to July 2016, through semi-structured interviews with peasant leaders who access or have accessed the PAA and the secondary data came from the National Supply Company (Conab). The findings were that the PAA impacts on social inclusion, strengthening peasant agriculture, which produces enough good quality food to meet the families’ dietary requirements and offers the possibility of selling any surplus. It is concluded that food sovereignty affirms the right of peasants and the people benefiting from the program to a culturally appropriate diet and the resources to produce food, thus reducing their dependence on capitalist markets.

title: The relation between tourism and tecnology clusters and its impacts to the local development: a bibliometric study of scientific literature

description: ABSTRACT This paper intends to investigate the scientific literature on the relation between tourism and technology clusters (TourTech) in promoting local development on the databases Business Source Complete of the Online Research Databases (EBSCO) and Leisure Tourism Database (CABI) until the year 2014. With a mixed approach (qualitative and quantitative), the research is classified as descriptive and bibliographic. The strategy adopted for data collection used bibliometric criteria and the data analysis applied was content analysis. The results showed that there are some possible theoretical gaps to be developed: not only about the conection between tourism clusters and technology clusters for local development, but also the relation between tourism and technology clusters and their impact to promote innovation that can improve the local development and finally, how the investments to develop a cluster individually can impact on the development of the other.

title: Sensitivity assessment objective versus objective after fracture of zygoma

description: Abstract Introduction Maxillofacial surgeons often treat zygomatic facial complex fractures, therefore, signs and symptoms of these fractures help establish the diagnosis and the procedure for every case. The presence of sensibility alteration is a common symptom in this type of trauma. Objective This study evaluated comparatively the presence and changes of subjective and objective sensitivity after zygomatic fractures. Methodology Fourteen patients were selected with unilateral fractures of zygomatic. Subjective sensitivity was evaluated through a questionnaire and objective sensitivity measured by the Semmes-Weinstein monofilament. Result The results shows sensibility alteration was found in 13 patients (92.84%), of these, 8 patients (57.13%) had changes of subjective order and 10 (71.42%) of objective order. Concomitant changes in subjective and objective sensitivity were found in 5 patients (35.71%). Patients affected only by one type of sensibility alteration totaled 8 patients (57.13%); of these, 5 patients (35.71%) had only objective alterations and 3 patients (21.42%) only subjective sensitivity alterations. The only complaint of subjective sensitivity was hypoesthesia in 7 cases (50%). Conclusion The sensitivity changes are often found after zygomatic fractures there is a strong correlation between the loss of subjective perception and objective, however, especially the changes in the objective order.

title: Conference Calls: an Empirical Analysis of Information Content and the Type of Disclosed News

description: ABSTRACT This article analyzes whether the type of news and the earnings persistence influence the amount of information that is voluntarily disclosed by the companies. As a proxy for voluntary disclosure we use the information content of the conference calls of the companies listed on the BM&F Bovespa from 2008 to 2015. The results indicate that the companies with bad news provide more information during the conference call (presentation section and questions & answers section) than the companies with good news. Moreover, were found evidence that the companies with less persistent positive earnings provide a larger amount of information than the companies with more persistent positive earnings. Regarding companies with negative earnings we did not find any relation between persistence and the informational content.

title: Reading Prediction and Textual Awareness: A study with Primary Education Students

description: Abstract: Based on psycholinguistic studies, this article deals with reading comprehension skills focusing prediction and the textual consciousness level imbricated in this strategy. To demonstrate this theory, a research has been carried on with 55 sixth grade-students whose ages ranged from 11 to 13, all attending the elementary educational level of a public school in the city of Porto Alegre. In order to examine the effective use of predictions, a reading task with parts of a fable was presented in paper cards, as well as questions about the story to stimulate the use of those strategies. The verbal protocol of self-revelation was adopted to verify the participants´ textual level of consciousness. The results showed that most of the students managed to deal with reading prediction, making pertinent anticipations, although 27% of them were unsuccessful. In relation to the textual consciousness in the use of this strategy, just over half of the students showed metalinguistic behavior, being capable to explain the generative bases of their predictions efficiently using both intratextual and extratextual information. Nevertheless, 47% of the pupils were not able to achieve the goal, since they responded the questions in a confusing and mistaken manner or used vague and imprecise information while showing evidences of how they had processed the question. Considering the educational context, the research results suggested that both the use of the reading prediction and its conscious awareness are relevant topics to be applied in Portuguese language classes, for they provide the teacher with information concerning the possibilities and difficulties on students´ reading process.

title: Physiological and biochemical aspects of castor beans seeds deterioration stored in different packaging conditions and temperatures

description: Abstract: The present study aimed to evaluate effects of different storage conditions on the castor bean seed cultivar IAC-226 quality, stored for 12 months. For this purpose, seeds were stored in different environment and packaging conditions: in a cold chamber and conventional storage, using multiwall Kraft paper and in no vacuum and vacuum plastic packages at 1 atm; as well as under cryopreservation storage (-196 °C). Seed quality was evaluated before and after 4, 8 and 12 months of storage by germination tests, first count of germination, emergence percentage, emergence speed index and determination of changes in catalase (CAT) and superoxide dismutase (SOD) enzyme systems. Cryopreservation (-196 °C) is efficient in maintaining the physiological quality of castor bean cultivar IAC-226 for 12 months. The enzyme catalase stands out as a marker of castor seed deterioration during storage.

title: Closing the Snack Bar: Developing Methods for Jackfruit Tree (Artocarpus heterophyllus Lamk.) Control in Brazil

description: ABSTRACT There are several techniques for the control and removal of invasive species that can be applied, and there is a demand among restoration practitioners for plant control methods. This study compared two methods for the control of jackfruit tree: mechanical method of trunk girdling and chemical method of herbicide injection into the trunk. It was evaluated both methods in terms of effectiveness in 10 plots (80 × 80 m). For the chemical method, triclopyr in concentrations of 2%, 6% and 8% was used. The progress of treatments was evaluated accordingly for the phytosanitary conditions. Method of trunk girdling proved to be ineffective and it had a low mortality rate (12%). The proportion of dead trees by chemical treatment was 100%. The results showed that chemical control of jackfruit trees was much faster and more effective.

title: Physical-Anatomical and Initial Growth of Tabebuia roseoalba (Ridl.) under Different Water Regimes

description: Abstract The present work evaluated the physical-anatomical and initial growth of Tabebuia roseoalba seedlings exposed to different water regimes. The seedlings were grown under 100, 50, 25 and 12.5% of the water retention capacity (WRC). After 90 days, the following aspects were evaluated: height, diameter, fresh and dry weights of aerial and root, root length, and leaf area, Dickson quality index, liquid assimilation rate, relative growth rate, specific leaf area, stomatal index, and number of trichomes and leaf epidermal cells. The results indicated seedlings have greater initial growth and quality when cultivated at 100% WRC, and 25 and 12.5% WRC represented stress conditions for the plants. The species is hypostomatous with anomocytic stomata. The number of stomata, the stomatal index, and the number of epidermal cells did diminish with reduced water availability. The number of trichomes were larger on the adaxial face as water availability decreased.

title: Terracing Recovers the Quality of a Riverbank Soil Degraded by Water Erosion in Brazilian Semiarid

description: ABSTRACT Soil physical-hydraulic properties are among the most important indicators for evaluating soil quality. This study aimed to experimentally demonstrate how the construction of terraces can affect physical-hydraulic properties of a soil degraded by water erosion on the banks of the Salitre river, tributary of the São Francisco river. An area in advanced stage of degradation by water erosion was delimited for the construction of a level bench terrace. The experiment was conducted for two years. Soil physical-hydraulic properties were determined before and after terracing. Time-domain reflectometry (TDR) was used to measure soil water storage (mm). This study demonstrated that terracing positively affected soil physical-hydraulic properties in the previously degraded area, allowed the increase in the retention and availability of water in the soil, thus is an ecologically beneficial practice for recovery of degraded soils on the banks of the Salitre river.
