title: Environmental Psychology and Sustainability Resources: Integrative Review

description: Abstract The objective of this study was to examine, through an integrative review of empirical articles, the scientific production on the relation between Environmental Psychology (behavior/cognition variables) and sustainability considering different resources. For that purpose, this analysis considered articles approaching a unique resource. Search was conducted in three journals with international relevance in the scientific production of Environmental Psychology: Environment and Behavior, Journal of Environmental Psychology and Psyecology. Following pre-established inclusion criteria, results included 24 articles published from 2012 and 2016. Years with higher number of publications were 2014 (n = 8) and 2015 (n = 8). The articles found refer mostly to studies conducted in Europe; only one article is a research from Brazil. Resources included transportation, products, water, energy, plastic bag, and natural grassland. Results indicate that there is a diversity of concepts mediating behaviors/cognitions and different resources, which reveals the relevance of these approaches to the promotion of sustainability. Research and intervention paths are suggested to sustainable relations between people and resources available in their surroundings.

title: Compartment syndrome after distal biceps brachii tendon rupture in an athlete

description: ABSTRACT This is a case report of a previously healthy athlete who did not use oral anticoagulant, suffered a rupture of the distal biceps brachii tendon, and evolved with arm compartment syndrome. An emergency fasciotomy and the repair of the tendon were performed. After surgery the patient had a good recovery of the paresthesia and sensibility. This complication is rare and, when reported, is usually associated with patients who use anticoagulant therapy. Due to growth of rupture of distal biceps tendon cases, physicians should be aware that this complication must be treated as an emergency.

title: Evaluating and Teaching Lemov’s Taxonomy Techniques for Elementary School Teachers

description: Abstract For Behavior Analysis, the teacher is essential as a programmer and applicator of classroom teaching contingencies. Student’s performance is functionally related to that of the teacher, making important the investment in professional training. Lemov’s taxonomy cataloged teaching techniques based on the behaviors of teachers whose students have excellent academic performance, presenting similarity with the analytic-behavioral perspective. This study aimed to evaluate a training of Lemov’s taxonomy techniques with four primary school teachers. Pre-and post-training records of the occurrences of the techniques in the classroom were carried out, and the techniques “No opt out” and “Stretch it” were trained, using booklets and role-play with feedback. After intervention, there was an increase in the frequency of techniques used to make questions to the students, related to the trained techniques. However, there were few occurrences of “No opt out” and “Stretch it”, used only by half of the participants, indicating partial training effect on the behavior. The need for in situ training, modeling and simplification of training criteria are discussed.

title: Myelodysplastic syndrome: validation of flow cytometry multilineage score system

description: ABSTRACT Objective To validate multilineage score system correlating results of flow cytometry, cytogenetics, cytomorphology and histology from samples of patients with suspected myelodysplastic syndrome or cytopenia of unknown origin. Methods A retrospective study analyzing laboratory data of 49 patients with suspected myelodysplastic syndrome or cytopenia of unknown origin, carried out between May and September 2017. The inclusion criteria were availability of flow cytometry results, and at least one more method, such as morphology, histology or cytogenetics. Thirty-eight patients were classified as diagnosis of myelodysplastic syndromes, whereas 11 were classified as normal. Patients were evaluated based on score systems, Ogata score and flow cytometry multilineage score. Results Comparing the scores obtained in the Ogata score and the multilineage score, it was observed that in four cases the Ogata score was zero or 1 point, while the multilineage score was higher than 3 points. In addition, in 12 cases with Ogata score of 2, the multilineage score was greater than 3. Conclusion The flow cytometry multilineage score system demonstrated to be more effective in dysplasia analysis, by assessing the erythroid, monocytic, granulocytic and precursor cell lineages, apart from the parameters evaluated by the Ogata score.

title: Estimation of leaf nutrient concentration from hyperspectral reflectance in Eucalyptus using partial least squares regression

description: ABSTRACT: Leaf hyperspectral reflectance has been used to estimate nutrient concentrations in plants in narrow bands of the electromagnetic spectrum. The aim of this study was to estimate leaf nutrient concentrations using leaf hyperspectral reflectance and verify the variable selection methods using the partial least squares regression (PLSR). Two studies were carried out using stands with Eucalyptus clones. Study I was established in Eucalyptus stands with three clones, classifying leaves into five colour patterns using the Munsell chart for plant tissues. Immediately after leaf collection, leaf reflectance was read and the chemical analysis was performed. Study II was carried out in commercial clonal stands of Eucalyptus performing the same leaf sampling and chemical analysis as used in Study I. All leaf reflectance spectra were smoothed and three more pre-processing procedures were applied. In addition, three methods of PLSR were tested. The first derivative was more accurate for predicting nitrogen ( R c v 2 = 0.95), phosphorous ( R c v 2 = 0.93), and sulphur concentration ( R c v 2 = 0.85). The estimates for concentrations of calcium ( R c v 2 = 0.81), magnesium ( R c v 2 = 0.22), and potassium ( R c v 2 = 0.76) were more accurate using the logarithm transformation. Only the estimates for iron concentrations were performed with higher accuracy ( R c v 2 = 0.35) using the smoothed reflectance. The copper concentrations were more accurate ( R c v 2 = 0.78) using the logarithm transformation. Concentrations of boron ( R c v 2 = 0.68) and manganese ( R c v 2 = 0.79) were more accurate using the first derivative, while zinc ( R c v 2 = 0.31) concentration was most accurate using the second derivative.

title: Parental Guidance for Childhood Insomnia in Twins: A Case Report

description: Abstract Behavioral intervention by means of parental guidance has been achieving positive results in the management of insomnia in children. However, the effectiveness of such interventions in twins is questioned because parents share the care of two children of the same age and level of development. This is a case report of behavioral intervention for childhood insomnia in twins through a program for parents. The objective of this study is to analyze the effect of such intervention on children’s sleep and daytime behaviors. The mother of the twins was instructed on the techniques of extinction and positive reinforcement in the management of children’s sleep problems. The results showed that after the intervention there was an improvement in the children’s sleep habits, sleep quality and internalizing and externalizing behaviors. The findings of this case report show the positive effects that an intervention based on operant learning had on children’s sleep and behavior. This highlights the importance of a greater inclusion of issues related to sleep in psychological studies based on preventive and intervention practices.

title: Increased capture of Aedes aegypti (Linnaeus, 1762) (Diptera: Culicidae) by removing one ADULTRAP component

description: Abstract INTRODUCTION: Aedes aegypti is the main vector responsible for the transmission of numerous arboviruses. Adultrap® has been developed to catch these insects. METHODS: We tested the effectiveness of capturing adults with and without one of the components of Adultrap®. RESULTS: The mean number of insects caught by the original trap was 1.25 (standard deviation = 1.28), while the average obtained with the modified trap was 8.88 (standard deviation = 3.44). The medians were statistically different (p = 0.001) according to the Mann-Whitney test. CONCLUSIONS: The modification of Adultrap® increased the average catch of Ae. aegypti by up to seven times.

title: Surface Flux Modelling Between a Soy Culture and the Atmosphere

description: Abstract In this article a soil-vegetation-atmosphere transfer model is implemented to estimate amongst other variables, sensible and latent heat fluxes, in crop fields and other vegetated areas. Two distinct sub-models for carbon fluxes were implemented. We compared the models with each other and with heat flux measurements over a soy field. The results show the impact of the different stomatal response implementations on the surface heat fluxes. We found that the model has good predictive potential for operational applications or for evaluation of potential climate changes resulting from land-use modifications.

title: Titanium Biomimetically Coated With Hydroxyapatite, Silver Nitrate and Polycaprolactone, for Use In Biomaterials (Biomedicine)

description: Titanium is used in orthopedic and orthodontic implants because it has good corrosion resistance and excellent biocompatibility. Thus, studies seek to obtain a coating to improve the adhesion between the bone and the implant, by modifying the metal’s surface. The objective of this work was to biomimetically coat C.P. Ti with hydroxyapatite doped with silver nitrate, a component with antimicrobial properties, coating the metallic-ceramic composite with a polycaprolactone polymer film, which is known by generate improved implant-tissue interaction, and reducing postoperative complications from bacterial infections. The characterization of the material demonstrated the existence of the coating overall surface of the metallic substrate. The results obtained from the bacterial culture tests with Staphylococcus aureus showed that nitrate was effective in reducing the amount of live bacteria present in the supernatant, as well as those adhered to the surface of the material. In addition, the polymeric coating did not prevent the release of the bactericidal agent, not interfering in the effect there.

title: Characterization of the Pluviometric Regime of the Municipality &gt;/&gt;of Araguaína – TO

description: Abstract The behavior of rain affects the planning and operation of society’s sectors. One of the ways to know the behavior of the rains of a certain region is through the analysis of the historical series of precipitation. The objective of this work is to analyze and characterize the pluviometric regime of the municipality of Araguaína, based on the historical series of rainfall stations of the National Water Agency. In addition, regional information is presented that can help the management system of the municipality of Araguaína for the sectors that depend on the dynamics of the rainfall in its decisions. Five rain gauges were selected with contributions from direct rain records in the municipality. In general, it was verified that the hydrological year of Araguaína presents well defined seasonality characterized by two periods: the dry period from May to September, and the rainy season from October to April. The average annual precipitation in the entire area of the municipality is 1746.97 mm and, on average, 89% of Araguaína’s total annual rainfall is recorded on the period considered rainy. On the other hand, a little more than 10% of the volume precipitations happens outside the months of October to April.
