Les liaisons dangereuses na Tela: ligações 'perigosas' entre cinema e literatura

The purpose of this article is to comment on the film adaptation by director Stephen Frears of the 18th-century novel Les liaisons dangereuses (in English, Dangerous Liaisons) by Choderlos de Laclos. It compares the film composition to the basic formal aspects of the novel. If, on one hand, Frears’ 1988 film adaptation breaks away from Laclos’ epistolary novel for being aligned with the standard elements of the classical cinema, on the other, it reveals a surprising affinity to the literary work: the relation with the theatrical language.

Piperacillin/tazobactam-induced neurotoxicity in a hemodialysis patient: a case report

Antibiotics are potentially a cause of neurotoxicity in dialysis patients, the most common are thebeta-lactams as ceftazidime and cefepime, and few cases have been reported after piperacillin/tazobactam use. This report presents a case of a hypertensive and diabetic 67-year-old woman inregular hemodialysis, which previously had a stroke. She was hospitalized presenting pneumonia,which was initially treated with cefepime. Two days after treatment, she presented dysarthria, lefthemiparesis, ataxia, and IX and X cranial nerves paresis. Computed tomography showed no acutelesions and cefepime neurotoxicity was hypothesized, and the antibiotic was replaced bypiperacillin/tazobactam. The neurologic signs disappeared; however, 4 days after with piperacillin/tazobactam treatment, the neurological manifestations returned. A new computed tomographyshowed no new lesions, and the second antibiotic regimen withdrawn. After two hemodialysissessions, the patient completely recovered from neurological manifestations. The patient presentedsequentially neurotoxicity caused by two beta-lactams antibiotics. This report meant to alertclinicians that these antibiotics have dangerous neurological effects in chronic kidney diseasepatients.

Avaliação da participação e confiabilidade da população em relação à campanha de vacinação anual contra a raiva de cães e gatos no município de Botucatu, São Paulo, Brasil

The annual vaccination campaign against rabies is the most effective prevention procedure for this disease in dogs and cats and hence for human protection also. However, in 2010 and 2011, this activity was interrupted in Brazil due to the occurrence of adverse events associated with vaccination. Even though cases of canine rabies have been decreasing in the last two decades, vigilance must be strengthened in order to maintain pet owners trust in the vaccines provided in public services. This study aimed to determine pet owners participation in the annual vaccination campaign carried out in Botucatu. During March and April 2012, the period before the 42nd campaign, 312 pet owners, dogs and cats, were interviewed. The homes were randomly drawn in blocks from different sectors of the city; all houses on the same block over the 120 km² of urban area participated in the sampling process. Statistical analysis was performed descriptively. The results showed that the owners main motivation to vaccinate their pets during the campaigns is rabies prevention (36%), followed by the proximity of the vaccination station to the house (20.7%), zero cost (10.9%), and the combination of all three factors (16.1%). When asked if they would take their animals back to be vaccinated in another campaign, 60.1% answered yes, 13.5% would go to a private clinic, 2.2% would not take because they do not trust the vaccine and 1.6% had not decided yet. We conclude that the respondents have realized how dangerous Rabies is, because even after the break period, they still utilized the vaccination campaign demonstrating confidence in its effectiveness, while knowing the campaign goals facilitates understanding and participation.

Comparação energética de tijolos comum e sem queima pela análise do ciclo de vida

This work is part of several research related to the plan of design and construction of a sustainable house. The previous researches focused on sustainable materials and it have shown that ceramic material are more interesting to improve the thermal comfort and the reduction of fees and prices of the house, making possible to construct popular home, mainly clay bricks, that have high thermal inertia and low costs, besides the fact that it is easy to find the raw materials in nature and process them. However, a major issue in using clay bricks is that it uses too many energy to be processed during the sintering (burning), a crucial part of the process that assures mechanical resistance. Alternative materials are being proposed by the researchers, as the clay bricks without the sintering mixed with Portland cement, assuring the proper resistance to the brick. Raw materials of cement, however, also need to be thermally processed in rotary kilns, in a process called clinckerization. This research was proposed for comparing the energy used by the two types of bricks and other objectives, in order to determinate which one uses less thermal energy. The intention was to compare the energy used during the sintering of regular clay bricks and the unfired bricks with 10%, 20%, 30%, 40%, 50%, 60%, 70%, 80%, 90% and 100% of Portland cement. The paper also investigated and compared the use of electrical and thermal energy of all the bricks to identify how important were the thermal stages (sintering or clinkerization) relatively to the total energy spent. At last, a resumed analysis was performed to identify the possible health damages of the many life cycles of the bricks. The conclusion was that unfired bricks with less than 40% of cement use less thermal energy to be processed. In addition, their carbon dioxides emissions were less dangerous to ...
