title: Evaluation of mass transfer in a novel hollow fiber module design using an electrochemical technique

description: Abstract The mass transfer coefficient (K L ) determined using an electrochemical technique was used in this work as a parameter to evaluate the hydrodynamics of hollow fiber membrane modules. A new microfiltration module configuration was investigated, taking advantage of the hydrocyclone concept aimed at reducing the concentration of the polarization layer near the membrane surface promoted by the centrifugal field. The mass transfer coefficient for the new configuration was compared with that of a conventional longitudinal module. The experimental determination of K L was obtained by monitoring the electrochemical reactions that occur at the electrode surface under mass transfer-limiting conditions. The performance of the microfiltration modules, both hybrid and longitudinal, was evaluated based on parameters such as packing density and fluid flow regimes. The results achieved for the mass transfer coefficient with the electrochemical technique allowed for performance evaluations of the proposed new module configuration and a comparison with the longitudinal module.

title: Detection of pine woodwasp in Pinus taeda in São Paulo State, Brazil

description: ABSTRACT: The woodwasp Sirex noctilio (Fabricius) (Hymenoptera: Siricidae) is one of the main pests of Pinus plantations in South America. The aim of this study is to report the occurrence of S. noctilio in Pinus taeda in Botucatu, São Paulo, Brazil. The surveys were carried out in the arboretum of Faculdade de Ciências Agronômicas (FCA) da Universidade Estadual Paulista “Júlio de Mesquita Filho” (UNESP), campus Botucatu, SP where six species of Pinus are distributed in blocks of 100 trees. Resin beads were observed on the trunks and stems of Pinus species. In post-flight evaluation it was reported that 8.77% of P. taeda trees showed symptoms of oviposition by S. noctilio. A female S. noctilio was found performing oviposition. Sirex noctilio is present in Botucatu, increasing the geographical distribution of the pest in São Paulo State.

title: Common bean residue as additive in sugarcane silage

description: ABSTRACT The sugarcane has a high content of soluble carbohydrates, thereby resulting in many losses during its fermentation. Thus, it is necessary to use an additive that reduces the losses in the nutritional value of the forage during the ensiling process. The objective was to evaluate the use of common bean residue during the sugarcane ensiling process over the silage nutritional quality and fermentation characteristics. Were used 20 silos made of PVC pipes, in which the residue of crude and previously ground common bean processing (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) were added to newly chopped sugarcane in the proportions of 0; 50; 100 and 150 g kg-1 of fresh weight. A randomized design was used and the regression analysis was performed according to the level of common bean residue in silages. The losses from the ensiling process, the aerobic stability of the material, and the silage chemical composition, pH, NH3-N and in vitro dry matter digestibility were analyzed. The inclusion of increasing levels of common bean residue until 150 g kg-1 improved the quality of silages, since there was a reduction in gaseous losses, improvement in food composition and in vitro dry matter digestibility, without impairing the silages pH. The common bean residue can be used as additive in sugarcane silage until 150 g kg-1 fresh weight for improving silage fermentation characteristics and dry matter digestibility.

title: MEMORIES OF THE FLOOD OF 1974 AND THE PRODUCTION OF SPACE IN TUBARÃO (SC)

description: ABSTRACT The flood of 1974 displaced 60,000 of the 70,000 inhabitants and caused the deaths of dozens of people of the municipality of Tubarão (SC). The city has kept the memory of the flood through several initiatives, which have intensified in the early 21st century. From the perspective that disaster investigations should take into account not only their contingency, but also post-catastrophe studies, a document research about the politics of memory of the flood of 1974 was carried out. The research aim at understanding these actions as politics of memory and investigating their relation with the social production of urban space through analysis of the monuments in the city and the adoption of other measures, such as the institution of the day of remembrance of the catastrophe. The research demonstrates that these monuments and references to the flood present close relation to moments and political personages of the city, and concludes that these policies are key elements for the construction of the urban history and identity and legitimation of new political actions.

title: DISTANT LEARNING IN THE CONTEXT OF THE BRAZILIAN NATIONAL ELDERLY HEALTH POLICY: A COURSE EGRESSED STUDY

description: Abstract This article aims to analyse the effectiveness of a course in aging and health of elderly people as part of the implementation of the Brazilian National Elderly Health Policy (PNSPI), from the perception of health professionals egressed from the course. A self-responded electronic questionnaire was applied from July to October 2015, answered by 414 in 1,561 egresses. The outcome variable to measure the course effectiveness was the improvement in the performance of egresses in at least five in ten activities related to health of elderly as provided for in PNSPI. There was improvement in all PNPSI activities varying between 1.3 to 2.6 times pre and post course. Professional background, time working with elderly health and actual implementation of learning from the course were the aspects that explained better the improvement in PNSPI activities (trough logistic regression model). The course proved have been effective for the implementation of PNSPI activities, showing the potential of continuing education to enforce public policies.

title: Reversible atrial fibrillation following Crotalinae envenomation

description: Abstract Background Cardiotoxicity is a documented complication of Crotalinae envenomation. Reported cardiac complications following snake envenomation have included acute myocardial infarction, electrocardiogram abnormalities and arrhythmias. Few reports exist describing arrhythmia induced by viper envenomation and to our knowledge none describe arrhythmia induced by Crotalinae envenomation. This report concerns the first known case of atrial fibrillation precipitated by rattlesnake bite. Case presentation A 73-year-old Caucasian man with a past medical history of hypertension, hyperlipidemia, type 1 diabetes mellitus, and a baseline first-degree atrioventricular block presented to the emergency department following a rattlesnake bite to his left lower leg. He developed pain and swelling in his left leg two-hour post-envenomation and subsequently received four vials of Crotalidae polyvalent immune fab (ovine). At three-hour post-envenomation following transfer to the intensive care unit, an electrocardiogram revealed new-onset atrial fibrillation. An amiodarone drip was started and the patient successfully converted to normal sinus rhythm approximately six hours after he was found to be in atrial fibrillation. A transthoracic echocardiogram revealed mild concentric left ventricular hypertrophy and an ejection fraction of 72%. He was discharged the following day with no hematological abnormalities and a baseline first-degree atrioventricular block. Conclusion This is the first documented case of reversible atrial fibrillation precipitated by Crotalinae envenomation. In patients with pertinent risk factors for developing atrial fibrillation, physicians should be aware of the potential for this arrhythmia. Direct toxic effects of venom or structural and electrophysiological cardiovascular abnormalities may predispose snakebite patients to arrhythmia, warranting extended and attentive cardiac monitoring.

title: Biocompatibility of a New Dental Glass Ionomer Cement with Cellulose Microfibers and Cellulose Nanocrystals

description: Developing new restorative materials should avoid damage to tissue structures. This study evaluated the biocompatibility of a commercial dental glass ionomer cement (GIC) mechanically reinforced with cellulose microfibers (GIC+CM) or cellulose nanocrystals (GIC+CN) by implantation of three test specimens in subcutaneous tissue in the dorsal region of 15 Rattus norvegicus albinus rats. Each rat received one specimen of each cement, resulting in the following groups (n=15): Group GIC (Control), Group GIC+CM and Group GIC+NC. After time intervals of 7, 30 and 60 days, the animals were sacrificed and the following aspects were histologically evaluated: type of inflammatory cells, fibroblasts, blood vessels, macrophages, giant cells, type of inflammatory reaction and capsule thickness (µm). These events were scored as (-) absent, (+) light, (++) moderate and (+++) intense. The results were statistically analyzed by Kruskal-Wallis test and Mann-Whitney post test. At 7 days, Group GIC+NC showed more favorable tissue repair because quantitatively there were more fibroblasts (p=0.022), fewer macrophages (p=0.008) and mononuclear cells (p=0.033). Polymorphonuclear neutrophils and giant cells were absent in all experimental periods. At 60 days, test specimens in Group GIC+NC were surrounded by a fibrous tissue capsule with reduced thickness (26.72±2.87 µm) in comparison with Group GIC+CM (41.21±3.98 µm) (p=0.025). In general, all biomaterials showed satisfactory biocompatibility, but glass ionomer cement modified with cellulose nanocrystals showed a more advanced tissue repair.

title: A study of hostile language in electronic comments from a discursive-interactional perspective

description: ABSTRACT The article focuses on hostile language used in electronic comments, published in a news site, after the Brazilian electoral campaign of 2014. To this end, the concepts of flaming (Kayany 1998) and polemical discourse (Amossy 2011) are introduced. For corpus analysis, Bousfield´s (2008) categories for the study of impoliteness in language are adopted. Negative and positive face threats were identified in the corpus, within the scope of polemical discourse. The research findings suggest that interactional categories stand a better chance towards the characterization of the phenomenon of flaming than the exclusive use of lexical categories.
