title: Evaluation of the ischiofemoral space: a case-control study

description: Abstract Objective: To determine the size of the ischiofemoral space (IFS) and quadratus femoris space (QFS) in patients with and without ischiofemoral impingement (IFI). Materials and Methods: Case-control study including consecutive patients submitted to magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the hip joint during a three-month period. Patients with deep gluteal pain who tested positive for IFI on at least one clinical test and showed signal changes in the quadratus femoris muscle on MRI were categorized as having a confirmed diagnosis of IFI. Results: Final sample comprised 50 patients submitted to unilateral MRI of the hip joint. The mean age was 47.3 ± 14.0 years (range, 22-76 years), and 33 (66%) of the patients were women. A diagnosis of IFI was made in 6 patients (12%), all of whom were female. On average, IFS and QFS were significantly smaller in IFI group than in control group (11.1 ± 2.7 mm versus 27.5 ± 6.5 mm and 5.3 ± 1.8 mm versus 18.8 ± 4.8 mm, respectively; p &lt; 0.001 for both). Conclusion: Results of specific clinical tests and MRI findings indicate that the IFS and QFS are significantly reduced in patients with IFI.

title: Evaluation and stability of the colour in burriquete (Pogonias cromis) fillets using a computer vision system

description: Abstract The colour of the meat surface is the first feeling that the consumer perceives and uses as a tool to accept or reject the food. The measurement and evaluation of meat colour can be measured by a chemical indicator (metmyoglobin) or by a physical assessment using colour spaces (a* and R). The objective of this study was to evaluate the colour and colour stability in burriquete (Pogonias cromis) fillets using the red parameters (a* value and R) and chemical analysis (% of metmyoglobin). The colour and colour stability of burriquete fillets stored at 5 ± 1 °C with 90% of relative humidity for 57.6 h was evaluated using a computer vision system. The red parameters (a* value and R) varied inversely with the metmyoglobin concentration. The kinetics were plotted using the kinetic model. The reaction orders for the a* value, R and metmyoglobin were 2.0309, 1.2101 and 1.8324, respectively and the reaction constants were -0.000046 for the a* value, -0.0013 for R and 0.0002 for metmyoglobin. The computer vision system was shown to be a powerful tool for assessing the colour and colour stability in fish meat but could also be used in other types of food product.

title: Physical, technological characterization and texture profile of grapefruit and flaxseed cookies

description: Abstract The objective of this study was to develop cookies with a mix of flours (grape, golden flax, corn starch) and to evaluate their physical, technological and sensorial characteristics. Five different formulations were used to prepare the cookies at different temperatures and baking times. Analysis of pH (pre and post cooking), color, physical (specific volume, density, dough weight), technological (volume swelling, water and oil absorption index) and sensory analysis of acceptance and texture profile were accomplished. The pH ranged from 5.38 to 6.44 (pre-cooking) and from 5.31 to 6.33 (post cooking). As for color parameters, the brightness ranged from 48.39 to 55.65, while for chroma a* it ranged from 3.38 to 6.44 and for chroma b* from 13.21 to 19.46. There was a significant difference regarding specific volume, density and dough weight, but the same cannot be said for the volume of swelling. Cookies were not characterized as having high water and oil absorption. The formulation most accepted by the judges contained 6.00% of grape flour, baked at 140 °C. The Texture Profile showed that the cookies presented average values, and did not become hard, brittle, adhesive and gummy. The Principal Component Analysis showed the relationship between physical, technological and sensorial analysis with good explanation for variability and repeatability through the two main components.

title: Flour and byproducts of mombuca blood orange: chemical characterization and application in ice cream

description: Abstract In this study, the chemical components of flavedo, albedo, seed, bagasse and flours obtained from the orange Citrus sinensis L. Blood Osbeck of Mombuca were characterized, and the flours were used to replace fat in ice cream. Four chocolate ice cream formulations were developed, with different flour concentrations, besides the elaboration of a control formulation. Analysis of centesimal composition and sensory acceptability were carried out, and results were evaluated by ANOVA and Tukey mean test (p ≤ 0.05). The moisture content of all flours obtained is within the limits established by the National Health Surveillance Agency, which determines a maximum of 15% moisture on flour and the amount of fibers is higher than that found in other studies with different fruits, what characterizes it as high fiber content (greater than 6%). The results of sensory evaluation indicated that there is greater acceptance of the use of albedo flour in the formulation of ice cream than seed and Orange flavedo flour. The use of albedo flour as a fat substitute promoted significant reduction of lipids (33.3%) and a fiber increase (59.2%) in the ice cream. The fractions and flours obtained from blood orange have a great potential for use in food products formulations, given its favorable chemical composition, as well as for fiber extraction.

title: Microbiological risks of infant formulas

description: Abstract The objective of this paper was discuss the main biological hazards found in infant formulas from literature reports, especially from outbreak records. This study has an exploratory nature through a bibliographical review where scientific search sites were used as data sources. Cronobacter sakazakii and Salmonella enterica are among the main microorganisms that cause diseases associated with infant formulas ingestion; however, Clostridium botulinum, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Staphylococcus aureus and Bacillus cereus can also be responsible for infant formulas contaminations. Since infants have the immune and metabolic systems still in development, they represent a more vulnerable group to contaminants, making it essential to offer safe foods from processing in industry to administration in homes and hospital units.

title: Mapping of equipotential surfaces using the free Quantum Geographic Information System software

description: Abstract In this work, we report the mapping of electrical equipotential lines (1D) and equipotential surfaces (3D) using the free Quantum Geographic information system (QGIS) software. For this purpose, experiments taking into account, four different electrical configurations were performed on physics classes of undergraduate students, using two conductors of opposite electrical charges for each experiment. For the first experiment two copper parallel linear conductors; for the second, a copper parallel linear conductor with a small circular ring acting as a point charge; for the third, two concentric circular ring and for the fourth one a semicircular ring with a small circular ring acting as point charge. The experimental data were treated and interpolated in the, open source, QGIS software, used in geoprocessing, to map the electrical equipotential planes and surfaces.

title: Factors associated with the distribution of natural Toxoplasma gondii infection among equids in Northeastern Brazil

description: Abstract The aim of this study was to determine the frequency and factors associated with Toxoplasma gondii in naturally infected equids in northeastern Brazil. Serum samples from 569 equids (528 horses, 8 mules and 33 donkeys) were subjected to the indirect fluorescent antibody test. Generalized linear models were used to evaluate associated factors. Among the 569 animals sampled, 118 (30.6%) living in rural areas and 14 (26.42%) in urban areas were seropositive (p&gt;0.05). Seropositive animals were observed on 95% of the farms and in all the municipalities. Donkeys/mules as the host, presence of domestic cats and rats on the farm, ingestion of lagoon water and goat rearing remained in the final model as factors associated with infection. Preventive measures such as avoiding the presence of domestic cats close to rearing areas, pastures and sources of water for the animals should be adopted. The wide-ranging distribution of positive animals also indicated that infection in other domestic animals and in humans, through the contaminated environment, was possible. It should be highlighted that there was the possibility that donkeys and mules would continue to have detectable titers for longer, thus explaining the prevalence found. Further studies are needed to confirm this possibility.

title: Cryptocaryon irritans, a ciliate parasite of an ornamental reef fish yellowtail tang Zebrasoma xanthurum

description: Abstract Cryptocaryon irritans is an obligate parasitic ciliate protozoan of wild and cultured marine fish. It causes white spot disease, and infections with this pathogen can cause significant losses for aquarists and commercial marine cultures worldwide. This study reports the occurrence of C. irritans parasitizing the ornamental reef fish, yellowtail tang, Zebrasoma xanthurum. Six days after being introduced to a new environment, 11 yellowtail tangs had white spots scattered across their bodies and fins. Suspicion of infection with C. irritans was evaluated by scraping the skin to confirm clinical diagnosis. After confirmation, the yellowtail tangs were transferred to a hospital aquarium and treated with the therapeutic agent Seachem Cupramine® for 15 days. During the treatment period, the copper concentration was monitored daily. At the end of the treatment, none of the yellowtail tangs showed clinical signs of white spots on their bodies, and skin scraping confirmed the yellowtail tangs were no longer infected. Subsequently, the yellowtail tangs were released for sale.

title: Imported malaria in Rio de Janeiro state between 2007 and 2015: an epidemiologic approach

description: Imported malaria is a malaria infection diagnosed outside the area where it was acquired and is induced by human migration and mobility. This retrospective study was performed based on secondary data from 2007 to 2015. In total, 736 cases of imported malaria (79.7% of 923 cases) were recorded in Rio de Janeiro state. Of the imported cases, 55.3% came from abroad, while 44.7% came from other regions of Brazil. Most cases of imported malaria in Brazil (85.5%) originated in Amazônia Legal, and Burundi (Africa) accounted for 59% of the cases from abroad. Analyses of the determinants of imported malaria in Rio de Janeiro state must be continued to understand the relationship between the origin and destination of cases.

title: The paradigmatic field of usage of the theoretical category of pluriactivity in Brazil

description: ABSTRACT: The lack of interpretive convergence around an analytical category or concept generates a field of disputes around the understanding of a certain phenomenon. This is also the case with “pluriactivity”, on which there remain interpretive divergences derived from its conception. This research aims to identify the interpretive tendencies that are gaining traction in Brazil. For that, the research used as a database the Brazilian Digital Library of Theses and Dissertations (BDTD - “Biblioteca Digital Brasileira de Teses e Dissertações”), since this type of database compiles and updates the state of the art on the subject. The research universe consisted of 115 dissertations and theses were systematized and analyzed using IRAMUTEQ software. Results showed that the development of theses and dissertations studying the theme of pluriactivity has remained as a current research topic. A higher incidence was noted more in the Southern and Southeastern universities of the country, where the dynamics between the three sectors of the economy favor the possibility of combining agricultural and non-agricultural activities. The conclusions of the research pointed to the coexistence of two different conceptions regarding pluriactivity: one that characterizes it as a strategy of reproduction and survival; and another that associates it with the diversification of the labor market at the regional level, which would allow the farmers’ family members to diversify the family income and increase the possibilities of investment in the activities developed in the rural property.

title: Teacher Education on GT 15 - Anped’s Special Education (2011-2017) between Dialogues and (New) Clues

description: ABSTRACT: This paper analyzes the scientific production about Teacher Education on the Work Group 15 (known as GT 15) - Special Education presented at the National Association of Postgraduate Studies and Research in Education (ANPEd) from 2011 to 2017. For this purpose, the abstracts of the communications and posters presented in the pages of the national editions of the event were consulted. Nineteen studies found were read and organized in axes: Initial education, Continuing education, Lifelong education and Analysis of policies and training proposals. The initial observations showed the growth of the theme on GT 15, the return of research on initial education and the incorporation of autobiographical narratives. There is a variety of methodological procedures on the studies: focal groups, interviews, questionnaires, and documental analysis. About the propositions, it is possible to highlight: teaching undergraduate studies have been based on localized actions; the knowledge produced collectively in continuing education is appreciated; the ways in which daily experiences and work conditions impact on teacher education are recognized; the political speech and the training proposals invest in self-management/self-investment skills, value continuing education over the initial education, and honor a technical know-how. It is considered the need for research that addresses the initial teacher education who works in the Specialized Educational Service, the construction of knowledge on the experience and the training process in teaching undergraduate courses, and works that reflect on the role of theory in continuing education in Special Education.
