Block Bone Graft Fixation ( Onlay): A Modification of the Surgical Technique

Several reconstructive methods of the alveolar ridge have been reported to make possible future rehabilitations with implants. Many of these methods come from studies done in animals, mainly rats. With this clinical practice based on scientific evidence, any experimental procedure that can be undertaken in real life is fundamental. Thus, any research that emulates as closely as possible those techniques used in humans are important. This study describes the modification of the technique for block bone graft fixation (onlay) in rats using the lag screw-type technique, normally used in clinical procedures for grafts in humans. The conclusion was that the execution of the described procedures minimizes interference of blood flow in the area because of the maintenance of the muscle insertion in the buckle aspect of the most anterior region of the mandible, providing better stability to the graft and better contact interface of the graft and receptor bed.

The Acting in Group of Teachers as Possibility of Resignification of the Interpretation about the Writing Language

Front of the possibility of acting with the teachers who teach in schools of Early Childhood Education for children aged six years, about the re-siginification of the understanding of writing language and of the importance of the child in this age group establish a positive relationship with this mode of language, was developed in 2011, a project linked to the Teaching of UNESP titled “Depathologization learning of the writing and inclusive education: reflections and actions of the teacher of Early Childhood Education”. This project aims to identification of the actions, in the classroom, of the patologization and subsequent implementation of actions depathologization writing by teachers’ actions, considering the increasingly early systematization of formal education of this kind of language in kindergarten. To this end, procedures that characterize the collaborative methodology are adopted. Throughout the methodological course, the engagement of the teachers, of the coordination and of the direction was valued, which seemed to favor both the formation, as the maintenance of the group, were very important aspects to ensure the interaction between its members and the common interest in the reflection about the topic in question. This paper focuses attention on whether thematic axes highlight during the initial survey of the expectations of teachers subsequently addressed in theoretical and reflective meetings leading up to identification of actions the patologization and/or of the proposition of the actions despatologizadoras of the learning of the writing, and in what refers to the way they are addressed.

The Genome Sequence of Taurine Cattle: A Window to Ruminant Biology and Evolution

To understand the biology and evolution of ruminants, the cattle genome was sequenced to about sevenfold coverage. The cattle genome contains a minimum of 22,000 genes, with a core set of 14,345 orthologs shared among seven mammalian species of which 1217 are absent or undetected in noneutherian (marsupial or monotreme) genomes. Cattle-specific evolutionary breakpoint regions in chromosomes have a higher density of segmental duplications, enrichment of repetitive elements, and species-specific variations in genes associated with lactation and immune responsiveness. Genes involved in metabolism are generally highly conserved, although five metabolic genes are deleted or extensively diverged from their human orthologs. The cattle genome sequence thus provides a resource for understanding mammalian evolution and accelerating livestock genetic improvement for milk and meat production.

The effect of salinization in maintenance of intermittent catheter

O uso de cateter intermitente representa um procedimento muito utilizado em ambiente hospitalar. Este estudo, de natureza experimental, teve como propósito a análise comparativa entre o cateter intermitente, preenchido com solução de heparina 100 U/ml e o preenchido com soro fisiológico 0,9%. Foi realizado um estudo comparativo, avaliando a formação de coágulos e se estes estivessem presentes seriam quantificados. Para tanto, foram utilizados quatro grupos de 7 coelhos, da linhagem Norfolk, sendo realizado acesso venoso em veia auricular conectado ao dispositivo de infusão múltipla. em dois destes grupos, foi usada solução salina; em um grupo, caso fosse encontrada resistência, esta seria forçada; no outro, esta resistência não seria forçada. Nos dois outros grupos, foi usada solução de heparina; em um grupo, caso fosse encontrada resistência, esta seria forçada; no outro esta resistência não seria forçada. O cateter intermitente foi mantido por 72 horas e, a cada 12 horas foi infundida água destilada, simulando a administração de medicamento. Durante o experimento foram observadas as seguintes variáveis: presença da formação de coágulos, comprimento do coágulo, peso fresco do coágulo, peso seco do coágulo, contagem plaquetária e desconforto. Na análise estatística feita pelo método não paramétrico Kruskal-Wallis, com nível de significância de sigma = 5%, não foi encontrada diferença significativa entre os grupos e momentos. Pôde-se constatar a presença de formação de coágulo em todos os grupos independentemente da solução de preenchimento. Concluímos, principalmente, que há necessidade de elaboração de novas normas e rotinas na utilização de cateter intermitente.

Physical mapping of the Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) genome by fluorescent in situ hybridization of repetitive DNAs to metaphase chromosomes - a review

The Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) has received increasing scientific interest over the past few decades for two reasons: first, tilapia is an enormously important species in aquaculture worldwide, especially in regions where there is a chronic shortage of animal protein; and second, this teleost fish belongs to the fascinating group of cichlid fishes that have undergone a rapid and extensive radiation of much interest to evolutionary biologists. Currently, studies based on physical and genetic mapping of the Nile tilapia genome offer the best opportunities for applying genomics to such diverse questions and issues as phylogeography, isolation of quantitative trait loci involved in behaviour, morphology, and disease, and overall improvement of aquacultural stocks. In this review, we have integrated molecular cytogenetic data for the Nile tilapia describing the chromosomal location of the repetitive DNA sequences, satellite DNAs, telomeres, 45S and 5S rDNAs, and the short and long interspersed nucleotide elements [short interspersed nuclear elements (SINEs) and long interspersed nuclear elements (LINEs)], and provide the beginnings of a physical genome map for this important teleost fish.
