title: Antecedents of the Intent to Recommend: a problem with fast food restaurants

description: ABSTRACT The fast and strong social and economic transformations in the economies of many countries has raised the competition for consumers. One of the elements required to adapt to such scenario is knowing customers and their perceptions about products or services, mainly regarding word of mouth recommendations. This study adapts, to the fast food business, a model originally designed to analyze the antecedents of the intent to recommend by clients of formal restaurants. Three constructs were considered: service quality, satisfaction, and social well-being, the latter comprised of positive and negative affections. Six hypotheses were considered, three of which relating to social well-being (that it influences satisfaction, service quality, and the intent to recommend), two relating to service quality (that it influences the intent to recommend and satisfaction), and one relating to the influence of satisfaction on the intent to recommend. None was rejected, indicating adherence and adjustment of the simplification and adaptation of the consolidated model. Through a successful empirical application, the main contribution made by this research is the simplification of a model through its application in a similar context, but with a different scope.

title: Graft tendon slippage with metallic and bioabsorbable interference screws under cyclic load: a biomechanical study in a porcine model

description: Introduction The rupture of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) is the most common type of knee injury. Reconstructive surgery is the ‘gold standard’ treatment. During the immediate post-operative period, the fixation of the graft is entirely dependent on the ability of the grafted implant to be secured inside the bone tunnel under the cyclical loads associated with daily tasks. Poor fixation can lead to graft slippage, thus impairing the healing and integration of the graft. The aim of this study was to evaluate the biomechanical performance of tendon graft fixation devices with metallic and bioabsorbable interference screws. Methods Twenty ACL reconstructions were carried out in porcine tibias using deep flexor tendons to fix 9 × 20 mm metallic (n=10) and PLLA 70/30 bioabsorbable screws (n=10). To verify the ability of a construct to resist immediate postoperative (PO) rehabilitation protocols for immediate load bearing, a cyclic loading test was applied with 50-250 N of tensile force at 1 Hz for 1000 cycles, and the displacement was measured at 10, 50, 100, 500 and 1000 load cycles to quantify the slippage of the graft during the test. After the cyclic loading test, a single-cycle load-to-failure test was applied. Results The slippage of the graft using metallic screws did not differ (P = 0.616) from that observed when using bioabsorbable screws. Conclusion The results obtained in this experiment indicate that metallic screws may promote a similar amount of graft slippage during low cyclic loading as bioabsorbable screws. Additionally, there was no difference in the biomechanical performance of these two types of screws during high failure loads.

title: Nucleation of Schools in the Countryside: conflicts between training and uprooting

description: Abstract: This article aims to analyze the reasons that led to the nucleation of schools located in the rural areas of municipalities located in the Paraíba state brejo, from the points of view of those involved in this action. The methodological approach was organized based on a qualitative analysis. Following the research, it was observed that the argument that the nucleation of schools contributes to the improvement in the organization of teaching was not confirmed. It is highlighted that the closure of schools has collaborated with the departure of residents from the countryside to the city, interfering with the formation of the identity and enabling the uprooting of peasants.

title: Women singers and improvisators in the XIXth C: the building of a feminine territory

description: Abstract Tus article discusses women’s presence in the Field of improvised singing during the XIXth century, a part still little studied in historiography, given, among other issues, the existence of a discourse saying that women did not belong to this world. On the contrary, we verify that women singers and improvisators always sung and took active part in this field. In this sense, to bring these forgotten voices, we started with a bibliographical research departing from the contribution of folklore scholars, the only heap where we can still find the vestiges of their presences

title: Impact of malocclusion on oral health-related quality of life of preschool children

description: OBJECTIVE: This study assessed the relationship of dental malocclusion with COHRQoL considering socioeconomic backgrounds and clinical factors. METHODS: A survey was carried out in Santa Maria, Brazil, during the National Children's Vaccination Day. The sample comprised 478 children aged 12 to 59 months. Fifteen trained and calibrated examiners evaluated the presence of anterior malocclusion traits (AMT) - anterior open bite, overjet and sealing lip. COHRQoL was measured through overall scores of the Brazilian version of ECOHIS (Early Childhood Oral Health Impact Scale). The assessment of association used adjusted Poisson regression models. RESULTS: The unadjusted assessment observed age, untreated dental caries and anterior open bite as the main covariates of the overall ECOHIS score. After the adjustment, the presence of anterior open bite had a negative impact on COHRQoL. There was no association between overjet and sealing lip with COHRQoL. CONCLUSION: In conclusion, anterior open bite present a negative impact on COHRQoL.

title: CARCASS AND MEAT CHARACTERISTICS OF CULL COWS SLAUGHTERED AT DISTINCT WEIGHTS AND DEGREE OF FATNESS – META-ANALYTICAL APPROACH

description: Abstract: The aim of this study was to carry out a meta-analysis of the carcass and meat characteristics of cull cows slaughtered at different weights and degree of fatness. The treatments were according to slaughter weight, (above 480.5 kg , Heavy, or below 480 kg, Light, of LW); and carcass degree of fatness (fat thickness between 6 and 10 mm, &gt;6, or between 3 and 6 mm, &lt;6). A completely random experimental design with a 2 x 2 factorial arrangement was used with two classes of slaughter weight and two classes of carcass degree of fatness. We evaluated papers about studies on cull cows carcass and meat, performed in Brazil between January 2000 and March 2013, available for access at SciELO and Capes search platforms. The papers were found through the combination of the following keywords: carcass, meat, bovine females, heifers and cows. The increase in cow’s slaughter weight did not affect hot carcass weight (252.3 versus 233.3 kg). There was less hot carcass yield (52.9 versus 56.9%) and higher conformation (10.0 against 8.6 points). The highest degree of finishing positively influenced marbling (8.7 versus 5.4 points). The increase in slaughter weight produces better carcass conformation but does not affect meat quality; on the other hand, raising the finishing degree above 6mm changes the sensory characteristics of meat.

title: Osteoporosis and Healthy Life Expectancy: estimates for Brazil in 2008

description: Abstract Objective Estimate osteoporosis life expectancy and osteoporosis-free life expectancy for Brazilians in 2008 at birth and at 20, 40, 60 and 80 years. Method The Sullivan method is used to combine the period life tables from the Brazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics and the prevalence of osteoporosis according to the Protective and Risk Factors for Chronic Diseases by Telephone Survey (Vigitel Brazil 2008). Results The main results of the study indicate that at birth, a man could expect to live, on average, 69.1 years and of these, 1.3 years would be with osteoporosis. For women, life expectancy was higher (76.7 years), as was osteoporosis life expectancy (7.9 years). Upon reaching the age of 60, women could expect to live another 22.7 years on average, 7.0 of those (31.0%) with osteoporosis. As for men the same age, only 1.3 years (6.6%) of the remaining 19.5 years would be spent with osteoporosis. Conclusion The results call attention to the need to consider the differences between the sexes in relation to the demand for care.

title: EFFECT OF SHEARING DURING PREGNANCY ON PRODUCTIVE PERFORMANCE IN THE POST-PARTUM PERIOD OF EWES ON EXTENSIVE HUSBANDRY

description: The use of shearing during pregnancy has been described as a tool for improving productivity in sheep and for minimizing perinatal mortality in lambs through the increase of fetal development. This study assessed the effect of shearing around 74 days of gestation on the productive performance of ewes and lambs during the first month of life. Forty Corriedale ewes were inseminated in autumn in Southern Brazil. All ewes were kept together at the same pasture under extensive husbandry conditions. The ewes were randomly separated into two treatment groups: twenty animals were completely sheared at 74 ± 6 days of pregnancy, and twenty were kept without sheared during pregnancy, composing the control group. Ewes and their lambs were evaluated at three different times during the experiment: at birth, between 15 and 21 days post-partum and between 22 and 45 days post-partum. Ewes had their body condition score, body weight, placental weight, milk production and serum concentrations of beta-hydroxybutyrate measured, while lambs had hematocrit, hemoglobin, and plasma lactate and glucose, as well as body weight at birth and until wean determined. Values of hematocrit and hemoglobin were lower and body weight at birth and at wean was higher in the group of lambs born from sheared ewes. Placenta weight was higher in sheared ewes. Body condition score and beta-hydroxybutyrate showed no differences between groups. Milk production of sheared ewes (1.26 L/day) was higher than in control group (0.93 L/day). Shearing ewes at 74 days of pregnancy was efficient for the better development of lambs at post-birth, reducing perinatal mortality rates.

title: Spirituality and religiosity in patients with systemic arterial hypertension

description: Abstract Systemic arterial hypertension is a major risk factor for complications such as acute myocardial infarction, cerebrovascular accident, and chronic kidney disease, which results in an important public health problem in Brazil, generating high medical and socioeconomic costs due to such complications. Systemic arterial hypertension associated with aspects such as spirituality and religiosity has been the subject of several studies. Thus, a descriptive, exploratory, cross-sectional study was conducted in order to assess the spirituality and religiosity of 65 hypertensive patients of a Service Center for Chronic Diseases. The domains “forgiveness” and “self-assessment” received better scores, with an average of 1.42 and 1.46, respectively. Whereas the “organizational religiosity” domain resulted in a higher average among respondents (3.00). Spirituality and religiosity of hypertensive patients are important dimensions that must be considered in developing a holistic treatment plan.
