title: Inspiratory muscle training in quality of life and functional capacity in cardiotoxicity: case report

description: ABSTRACT Cancer patients develop frequent cardiac problems due to chemotherapy toxicity, which impacts functional capacity (FC) and quality of life (QoL). Inspiratory Muscle Training (IMT) may be a viable therapeutic resource since cause-effect studies have shown improvement in FC and QoL in other populations. However, its effect was not evaluated in cardio-oncology patients. The study aimed to describe the effect of an IMT program on the FC and QoL of a patient with cardiotoxicity, LDM, aged 41 years, female and, sedentary that developed heart failure after chemotherapy. The QoL was evaluated by the Minnesota test. Dynamic Inspiratory Muscle Strength (S-Index) and Glycemic Threshold (GT) of the inspiratory muscles were also evaluated. The GT was determined by capillary glycemia with a digital glucometer (Accu-Chek - Roche), at the lowest value of glycemia of the load corresponding to the Incremental Inspiratory Muscle Test (IIMT). The load progression was performed every two weeks. After two months, all tests were reapplied. In the Minnesota test, the values related to FC, pre and post IMT, were 36 v. 8 (78% improvement); the clinical and psychological aspects 32 v. 7 (78% improvement); S-Index was 41 v. 51cmH2O (24% improvement). IMT improved the FC and QoL of a cardio-oncology patient, configuring itself as a possible and viable therapeutic resource for this population.

title: Disability assessment of individuals with diabetes mellitus: a cross-sectional study with the WHODAS 2.0

description: ABSTRACT Diabetes mellitus (DM) causes several functional limitations, which can negatively affect the personal and professional life of individuals. This effect can lead to more complications and disabilities. This study aimed to analyze in which domains of the World Health Organization Disability Assessment Schedule version 2.0 (WHODAS 2.0) individuals with diabetes mellitus have the greatest disabilities. cross-sectional study was performed with 111 individuals with diabetes mellitus, of any type. A sociodemographic questionnaire and the WHODAS 2.0 with 36 questions were applied to assess individuals’ difficulties in the last 30 days. Most individuals were women (60.3%) and classified as independent in the community (90.1%). The highest prevalence was among retired individuals (35.1%). The mobility domain presented the highest impairment (48±23) whereas the life activities domain presented the lowest impairment (28±13). However, for all domains, the impairment was below 50 on a scale ranging from zero to 100. All individuals with diabetes mellitus showed some disability, but the greatest impairment was in the mobility domain.

title: Bone loss assessment using different parameters in the microtomographic analysis. Study in rats

description: Abstract Introduction the challenge in the use of Micro-Ct has been to establish and standardize adequate standards for scanning and image processing to obtain the maximum performance of the equipment and to allow the comparison of findings between different studies. Objective this study aims to compare the percentage of bone volume in regions with periodontal bone loss using different methodologies to define the area to be analysed (ROI). Material and method ten rats were submitted to periodontal disease induction, and, after euthanasia, the mandibles were scanned with slices of 9μ and 18μm thickness, with a rotation step of 0.3mm. The images were reconstructed using the NRecon software, and then, using the CTAnalyser - CTAn software, the areas of interest (ROI) around the second molars were defined. The first area of interest (ROI1) was defined in a rectangular pattern that was restricted to the interproximal and furcation regions, where the total area of bone tissue was obtained by adding the results of the 3 ROIs. The second area (ROI2) was defined in the coronal/apical direction around the second molar to its proximal limitations with the neighboring teeth, in which the percentage of bone tissue belonging to the roots was excluded from the evaluations. Analyses were performed with five different threshold values (130-50, 130-60, 130-70, 130-80, 130-90, and 130-100). Result the analysis between the different ROIs showed that, in both analyses, there was a tendency towards a lower percentage of bone tissue the greater the grayscale contrast used. However, in the results obtained in ROI2, this difference was not statistically significant. Conclusion with the results obtained, it can be concluded that the use of different thresholds for bone quantification, in areas where there was a periodontal disease, can bring divergent results; the definition of the area of interest interferes with the results obtained; and that obtaining an area of interest with the removal of the roots, proved to be less susceptible to the variation of the scanning parameters.

title: Pedestrian circulaton dynamics as an indication of priority places to plant trees on a commercial street in an urban center

description: Abstract: This research aimed to determine the pedestrian circulaton dynamics on a commercial street in a central urban area – due to insolaton – and to investigate if the aforestaton can influence the walking choice and the intensity of people flow. The pressure of urban territory use on the natural environment has been associated with changes in the microclimate, and aforestaton has beneficial effects for reestablishing a conditon of environmental balance. In this sense, streets are important public spaces in cites, responsible for all social, economic, and environmental dynamics, and can be considered priority areas for aforestaton in cites. Thus, an exploratory literature review and documentary research was carried out, having as a study case the urban rehabilitaton works in the central region of Campo Grande, Mato Grosso do Sul, Brazil, which constitute the interventons of an ongoing integrated development program. Based on the results of this research, it was possible to demonstrate that, on days with higher temperatures, the greatest flow of pedestrians occurred on the shaded side, and tree-lined sidewalks provide higher thermal comfort and environmental quality for public space users on the urban road. Therefore, we concluded that the planned public space contemplating aforestaton is configured as a conditon to guarantee sustainable cites.

title: African Diaspora at the National Historical Museum: a study of exhibits between 1980 and 2020

description: ABSTRACT This paper examines the African diaspora within the long-term exhibits on the history of Brazil held at the National Historical Museum (MHN) between the 1980s and 2020s. Our understanding of the African diaspora in line with Nei Lopes’ definition, in which the term refers to the forced arrival of Black Africans to be enslaved in the Americas between the 16th and 19th centuries, and to the histories, memories, and heritage of their descendants. Articulating institutional sources and scientific literature, this study identified that, despite all efforts to broaden the approach to the Afro-diasporic experience by means of commemorative dates, such as the centennial of the abolition, in 1988, the topic is silenced and made invisible in the MHN’s exhibitions. Finally, the paper proposes other possibilities of reading the African diaspora on display, sharing recent experiences and pointing out new paths for the writing of history in exhibition projects developed by the institution.

title: Repossession in small university cites in the Brazilian Northeast: reflections based on the Obelisco Square in Redenção, Ceará

description: Abstract: The first 15 years of the 20th century witnessed an intense expansion of higher education institutions in Brazil, particularly in the countryside, with small cites then hosting especially federal universites and institutes. This movement has generated large urban repercussions, which impact the structures, the daily life, and the social production dynamics in the urban space, with student youth presence reaching, in particular, the urban public spaces. In the countryside of Ceará, in the Brazilian Northeast, the presence of a public federal university that is both interiorized and internationalized and has more than five thousand undergraduate students, out of which 25% are international migrants, impacts two small cites – Redenção and Acarape. This paper analyzes the territorial dynamics of the city of Redenção, focusing on Obelisco Square, regarding the upcoming university youth and the local population that already resided there, between the second semester of 2017 and February 2020. Regarding methodology, we developed a qualitative ethnographic research, also using a search for secondary data and interviews with two original residents who are also university students at the UNILAB. The analysis has revealed new territorial dynamics, which take place through the creative occupations done by the university youth and, even more, the emergence of this youth as significant urban and political agents. Furthermore, micro and nano conflicts across the Square, which take on urban forms and acquire a political nature, evidence inequalites, segregations, and structures potentially seen as normal and invisible, which are being socially contested by these emerging agents.

title: Beyond colonialism: the winding confluence between the Goeldi Museum and the Mebêngôkre

description: ABSTRACT This paper discusses the transformations in the relationship between the Goeldi Museum and Indigenous peoples, specifically the Mebêngôkre, better known as Kayapo, in a long-term perspective. Their complexity is not merely influence of a social Darwinism that would have cornered natural history museums in the role of agents of colonialism and ideologues of structural racism. Three key moments in the construction of ties between the Goeldi Museum and the Mebêngôkre are analyzed: the transition from the 19th to the 20th century, when religious missions were financed by the State and compulsory intermediaries between the Indigenous people and national society to integrate them into ‘civilization’; the 1930s, when new migratory movements to the Amazon region and the dictates of an oligarchy that strengthened itself through land control - especially in Brazil nut production areas - threatened the physical and territorial integrity of this people; and, finally, the 1980s-1990s, when opposition to the developmentalism of the military regime emerged and crystallized into a socio-environmental model that recognizes the importance of the role of Indigenous peoples and traditional populations in the Amazon. After highlighting the transformations observed in the relationship between museums and Indigenous peoples, the article concludes by advocating the importance assumed, in the 21st century, by collaborative research and participatory museology, both for their scientific qualification and for the appreciation of Indigenous knowledge with profound political, social, and environmental repercussions.

title: Clinical methods of dynamic and quantitative evaluation of the shoulder and scapula complex: a scoping review

description: ABSTRACT The shoulder joint has the greatest range of motion and is the most susceptible to dysfunction. Dynamic and quantitative evaluations of this region provide better information for the clinic but the choice of the method depends on its measurement properties. This study aimed to identify the existing methods of quantitative dynamic evaluation of the shoulder and scapula complex, in a clinical context for the general population, identifying the measurement properties and outcomes of each method. The scoping review included in vivo studies, with samples without a specific clinical condition and involving applicable methods in a clinical context. We identified evaluated outcome, measurement method, and its measurement properties. We selected 29 studies that investigated 12 measurement methods, and evaluated their validity and reliability for 17 different outcomes. Most studies (n=21) addressed the position of the shoulder and the scapula and the derivative outcomes, using mainly the units of inertial measurement (n=5) and inertial magnetic measurement (n=6) as evaluation methods. The outcomes with valid and reliable methods were: shoulder joint range; scapula and shoulder motion range; muscle activity; shoulder joint center; humerus length; torque-time curve; functional performance; scapular dyskinesia; external shoulder rotators force; shoulder joint functionality and range; initial scapular movement; scapula and shoulder position; and shoulder angular velocity.
