A integralidade da assistência à criança na percepção do aluno de graduação em enfermagem

Estudo de abordagem qualitativa que objetivou identificar como alunos de graduação percebem a integralidade do cuidado da criança no seu processo de aprendizagem, em um Curso de Bacharelado em Enfermagem do interior paulista. Entrevistou-se 89 alunos em junho e dezembro de 2009. Os dados coletados foram analisados mediante análise de conteúdo, sendo identificadas quatro temáticas. A integralidade é vista como cuidado inteiro, envolvendo criança, família, condições de vida, meio ambiente. A instituição de ensino propõe inserção precoce do aluno na realidade; este desmistifica o ideal de cuidado, deparando-se com o real. O professor instiga o aluno a refletir sobre sua prática, para que esta faça sentido e também sejam apreendidos o saber e o fazer relacionado à integralidade do cuidado à criança.

Sociedade Tarja Preta: uma crítica à medicalização de crianças e adolescentes

Como breve análise do livro "Medicalização de crianças e adolescentes: conflitos silenciados pela redução de questões sociais a doenças de indivíduos", esta resenha contextualiza a importância da publicação na crítica contemporânea à invenção de (psico)patologias e tratamentos a elas destinados. O livro logra, de forma extremamente rigorosa, desconstruir as "bases científicas" que sustentam o transtorno de déficit de atenção e hiperatividade (TDAH), mostrando como a indústria farmacêutica vem ocultando sistematicamente os profundos efeitos colaterais do princípio ativo destinado a tratá-lo (o metilfenidato, presente na Ritalina® e Concerta®). Com textos de profissionais vinculados à saúde e educação, nas mais diferentes áreas do conhecimento, o livro representa uma notável coalizão de esforços em benefício da promoção dos direitos de crianças e adolescentes.

Inclusive J/psi production in pp collisions at root s=2.76 TeV

The ALICE Collaboration has measured inclusive J/psi production in pp collisions at a center-of-mass energy root s = 2.76 TeV at the LHC. The results presented in this Letter refer to the rapidity ranges vertical bar y vertical bar < 0.9 and 2.5 < y <4 and have been obtained by measuring the electron and muon pair decay channels, respectively. The integrated luminosities for the two channels are L-int(e) = 1.1 nb(-1) and L-int(mu) = 19.9 nb(-1), and the corresponding signal statistics are N-J/psi(e+e-) = 59 +/- 14 and N-J/psi(mu+mu-) = 1364 +/- 53. We present d sigma(J/psi)/dy for the two rapidity regions under study and, for the forward-y range, d(2)sigma(J/psi)/dydp(t) in the transverse momentum domain 0 < p(t) < 8 GeV/c. The results are compared with previously published results at root s = 7 TeV and with theoretical calculations. (C) 2012 CERN. Published by Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

Longitudinal and transverse spin asymmetries for inclusive jet production at mid-rapidity in polarized p+p collisions at root s=200 GeV

We report STAR measurements of the longitudinal double-spin asymmetry A(LL), the transverse singlespin asymmetry A(N), and the transverse double-spin asymmetries A(Sigma) and A(TT) for inclusive jet production at mid-rapidity in polarized p + p collisions at a center-of-mass energy of root s = 200 GeV. The data represent integrated luminosities of 7.6 pb(-1) with longitudinal polarization and 1.8 pb(-1) with transverse polarization, with 50%-55% beam polarization, and were recorded in 2005 and 2006. No evidence is found for the existence of statistically significant jet A(N), A(Sigma), or A(TT) at mid-rapidity. Recent model calculations indicate the A(N) results may provide new limits on the gluon Sivers distribution in the proton. The asymmetry A(LL) significantly improves the knowledge of gluon polarization in the nucleon.

Inclusive charged hadron elliptic flow in Au+Au collisions at root s(NN)=7.7-39 GeV

A systematic study is presented for centrality, transverse momentum (p(T)), and pseudorapidity (eta) dependence of the inclusive charged hadron elliptic flow (v(2)) at midrapidity (vertical bar eta vertical bar < 1.0) in Au + Au collisions at root s(NN) = 7.7, 11.5, 19.6, 27, and 39 GeV. The results obtained with different methods, including correlations with the event plane reconstructed in a region separated by a large pseudorapidity gap and four-particle cumulants (v(2){4}), are presented to investigate nonflow correlations and v(2) fluctuations. We observe that the difference between v(2){2} and v(2){4} is smaller at the lower collision energies. Values of v(2), scaled by the initial coordinate space eccentricity, v(2)/epsilon, as a function of p(T) are larger in more central collisions, suggesting stronger collective flow develops in more central collisions, similar to the results at higher collision energies. These results are compared to measurements at higher energies at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (root s(NN) = 62.4 and 200 GeV) and at the Large Hadron Collider (Pb + Pb collisions at root s(NN) = 2.76 TeV). The v(2)(pT) values for fixed pT rise with increasing collision energy within the pT range studied (<2 GeV/c). A comparison to viscous hydrodynamic simulations is made to potentially help understand the energy dependence of v(2)(pT). We also compare the v(2) results to UrQMD and AMPT transport model calculations, and physics implications on the dominance of partonic versus hadronic phases in the system created at beam energy scan energies are discussed.

Cross sections and double-helicity asymmetries of midrapidity inclusive charged hadrons in p plus p collisions at root s = 62.4 GeV

Unpolarized cross sections and double-helicity asymmetries of single-inclusive positive and negative charged hadrons at midrapidity from p + p collisions at root s = 62.4 GeV are presented. The PHENIX measurement of the cross sections for 1.0 < p(T) < 4.5 GeV/c are consistent with perturbative QCD calculations at next-to-leading order in the strong-coupling constant, alpha(s). Resummed pQCD calculations including terms with next-to-leading-log accuracy, yielding reduced theoretical uncertainties, also agree with the data. The double-helicity asymmetry, sensitive at leading order to the gluon polarization in a momentum-fraction range of 0.05 less than or similar to x(gluon) less than or similar to 0.2, is consistent with recent global parametrizations disfavoring large gluon polarization.
