Since discovery, computed tomography is a widely used diagnostic modality. However, this modality imparts relatively high doses to the patients and with fast technological advancement, it is necessary optimize the doses used and ensure the quality of the images through a quality assurance program. This work intended to compare Computed Tomography Dose Index (CTDIW) and effective dose with components of image quality: the Contrast-to-Noise Ratio (CNR) and Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR), and a quality factor (Q) deduced by the Rose model for two groups of computed tomography units. The first group was composed by equipments with 10 up to 16 slices and the second one presented 40 up to 320 slices detectors, for the protocols of head and abdomen. It was realized a comparison between different selectable parameters in the protocol of a Philips Brilliance 16, too. The results of the first group to CTDIW, effective dose, SNR and CNR showed variations of 28%, 33%, 37% and 32% respectively for head protocol, and 21%, 27%, 43% and 37% respectively for abdomen protocol. The results of the group 2 to CTDIW, effective dose, SNR and CNR showed variations of 15%, 26%, 36% and 34% respectively for the head protocol, and 8%, 13%, 50% and 60% respectively for abdomen protocol. The comparison between both groups demonstrated similar levels of doses impartation to patients though having so many different configurations, if the uncertainties associated with this measurement were considered. The results of the comparison between different parameters in the Philips Brilliance 16 scanner were in agreement with expected

The signal-to-noise ratio and image uniformity analysis parameters are very important in quality control of an MRI scanner. They are measured in regular tests with phantoms. In these tests, however, used to quadrature coil, which has been most widely used clinically, and, therefore, was replaced in the procedures for body coil. In order to understand the difference between these two parameters in these coils, the study aimed to analyze the images acquired from four different phantoms in the same equipment under the same conditions for comparison purposes. With these results, it can be concluded that the body coil signal-to-noise ratio has always smaller than the quadrature in any projection, whereas the image uniformity is larger

The ankle sprains represent the most common injuries in sports and basketball. In this sense, the use of ankle bracing and strength capacity analysis of the ankle evertor and invertor muscles, have been suggested as preventive measures and important tools for identifying risk factors associated with ankle sprains. However, questions still persist as to effect of the use ankle bracing on biomechanical variables related to the stability of the ankle. For this reason, this study aims to analyze the effect of the use of ankle bracing on peak torque (PT) of ankle evertor and invertor muscles and on eccentric evertor/concentric invertor torque ratio (EVEECC/INVCON), during the basketball match-play simulation. Ten healthy college basketball players, without mechanics or functional ankle instability performed a laboratory-based protocol representative of work rates observed during basketball match-play, in two different situations, with and without use of ankle bracing. The test was composed of a succession of intermittent physical effort equally distributed in four periods of 10 minutes each, considering the mechanical and physiological demands of a basketball match-play. Prior to the start of the trial (Evaluation 1) and after 2° (Evaluation 2) and 4° (Evaluation 3) periods, the subjects performed five maximal isokinetic concentric and eccentric contractions of ankle invertor and evertor muscles, separated by two minutes rest, at 60 °/s and 120 °/s. After testing for normality of data distribution with the Shapiro-Wilk test, was used the ANOVA repeated measures for two factors and post-hoc Bonferroni test for comparison of variables between assessments. Was adopted p < 0.05. There was no significant difference for PT and EVEECC/INVCON torque ratio between assessments. There was a decrease in PT EVEECC at 60º/s and 120º/s for the ...(Complete abstract click electronic access below)

In the competitive judo, the form as a trainer organizes the process of his/her athlete's training is a very important task for a good acting and a better use of the technical procedures. There is great importance in determining the exercise intensity for the judocas training due to the interest for the high income in several competitions, and few studies returned for this research area, involving those athletes' different physiologic conditions. Therefore, it is necessary to improve protocols of physical evaluation for this modality, increasing his/her applicability. The present study aimed at to verify the validity of a protocol of specific aerobic test of the judo (technique ipon-seoi-nague), no exhausting, adapted of the method of CHASSAIN (1986), using deltas of variations of the lactacidemia and of the Scale of Perception of Effort of Borg, in athletes well. The test adapted to the judo constituted of four exercise series with two efforts similar (double) of 180 seconds with one interval of 90 seconds among them. The series of exercises were accomplished in consecutive days. The intensities of the double tests were of 85%, 95%, 105% and 115% of the minimum lactato for each participant. This work used the technique ipon-seoi-nague, obeying the reasons effort-pause individualized for each athlete, that you/they correspond to the intensities of exercises proposed by the protocol of CHASSAIN (1986). In that way, the athletes applied a blow (maximum speed) and they rested some seconds, depending on the regime effort-pause of the session. At the end of each collection collection of blood (25NL) of each participant's earlobe was accomplished, seeking to measure the concentration of sanguine lactato. The collections were accomplished at the end of the first and of the second efforts, in each one of the series. For the analysis of the Perception of the athletes' Effort, the Scale of Perception...

O presente estudo objetivou verificar a validade de um protocolo de teste aeróbio específico do judô (técnica ipon-seoi-nague), não exaustivo, adaptado do método de CHASSAIN (1986), utilizando deltas de variações da escala de percepção de Borg e da freqüência cardíaca em atletas bem treinados. O teste adaptado ao judô constituiu de quatro séries de exercício com dois esforços iguais (duplos) de 180 segundos com um intervalo de 90 segundos entre eles. As séries de exercícios foram realizadas em dias consecutivos. As intensidades dos testes duplos foram de 85%, 95%,105% e 115% do lactato mínimo para cada participante. Este trabalho utilizou a técnica ipon-seoi-nague, sendo que as razões esforço-pausa foram específicas para cada atleta, e correspondem às intensidades de exercício propostas pelo protocolo de Chassain (1986). A escala de percepção de esforço de Borg foi mostrada ao final do primeiro e do segundo esforços, em cada uma das séries, para que o atleta determinasse o nível de cansaço. Para análise da freqüência cardíaca foi utilizado um freqüencímetro, Polar Vantage NV, obtendo freqüência cardíaca concomitantemente a escala de Borg, ao final de bloco de esforço. Dessa maneira, foram obtidos dois deltas de variações entre o primeiro e o segundo esforços, para escala de percepção de Borg (ΔBORG) e FC (ΔFC). Uma vez que foram utilizadas quatro intensidades, foi possível determinar quatro ΔBORG e quatro ΔFC. Assim, a partir de duas regressões lineares (uma para o Borg e outra para a FC), foi possível determinar as razões esforço:pausas críticas do exercício na técnica específica do Judô, a partir da determinação das intensidades nas quais a variação de Borg e da FC foi igual a zero (ΔBORG=0 e ΔFC=0). Para validar esses procedimentos adaptados de Chassain (1986) ao Judô, foi realizado o teste de Lactato Mínimo Adaptado, conforme sugerido por Azevedo (2002).

This work is aimed at examining the paradox of modernity, from the opposition between Enlightenment ideals and historical events that followed, especially during the twentieth century, as well as to study the impact of mismatch on Bioethics, adopting as a reference epistemological critical theory of the Frankfurt School. Bioethics presents itself as a shaky science, devoid of references, and primarily impacted by the emptying of ethics. The reason desubjectivation established by and exacerbated by modern enlightenment, was able to erect dark scary for humanity and promote barbaric practices in the name of a science that promises order and progress. This paradox and the fallacy of reason enlightened by scientific advances are wide open, always accompanied by ethical and moral returns scary. Some examples are the surveys conducted in Tuskegee and Guatemala, and treated in this study, which show how far modern rationality and all its consequences

This text, essayistic character, aims to make some reflections on the dispute or supposed conflict that exists between two elements that have become essential in the constitution of the philosophical domain, in order to assess their contribution in the ethical field. On the one hand, we find the rational dimension, which is marked and has acquired certain predominance in western thought. On the other hand, the dimension of passion, that throughout the history of philosophy, has been subject to exclusion and devaluation, making it as if it were an obstacle to the formulation of ideas and universal values true and substantial. If one looks at the world seeing them or giving it a necessary and essential character, the other tends to recognize the contingent aspect of reality, seeing in it the possibility of accidental and uncertain.

A modificação de nanopartículas de óxido de ferro tem sido motivo de diversos estudos devido ao grande potencial em aplicações tecnológicas, em especial a área biomédica, pela aliança das propriedades magnéticas dos óxidos com a funcionalidade que a dextrana confere a esse material. O presente trabalho tem como objetivo sintetizar e caracterizar o sistema óxido de ferro/dextranas. O óxido de ferro foi obtido pela reação de co-precipitação de sais de ferro (II) e ferro (III) - na razão molar 1:2 - com hidróxido de sódio e a modificação das partículas magnéticas se deu por dois métodos: (I) a co-precipitação na presença de dextrana e carboximetil dextrana e (II) a co-precipitação seguida da modificação. Para modificação proposta pelo método (II) se fez necessário enxertar a dextrana em ácido acrílico, utilizando o íon Ce(IV) como iniciador da reação de polimerização. Nessa etapa se averiguou a concentração de iniciador ótima para a síntese e, através da técnica de espectroscopia de infravermelho, se pode confirmar a eficiência do enxerto. A concentração 0,3% de íon Ce(IV) apresentou melhor distribuição de tamanho, obtidos por análises de microscopia eletrônica de varredura e espalhamento de luz dinâmico, sendo escolhida para síntese junto a partícula magnética. A difratometria de raio X permitiu determinar a formação de estrutura cristalina da magnetita e maghemita, que são muito parecidas entre si, porém os espectros de infravermelho apontaram desdobramentos da ligação Fe - O característica da maghemita. A relação Fe2+/ Fe3+ obtida por espectrofotometria também resultou em oxidação. A estabilidade coloidal dos sistemas foi avaliada através de medidas de potencial zeta. A modificação da partícula magnética com carboximetil dextrana foi equivalente para os dois métodos empregados, entretanto a modificação com ...

Este trabalho tem como objetivo mostrar como se efetuou, historicamente, através das idéias dos filósofos Pitágoras, Parmênides, Sócrates, Platão, Aristóteles, Tomás de Aquino, Francis Bacon, Descartes e Newton, a cisão entre os dois modos de conhecimento, o racional e o sensorial e como foi construída a religião cristã, de onde se originaram seus principais elementos, a imortalidade da alma e a existência de Deus, que fundamentaram uma religião tipicamente antropocêntrica, contributiva para uma visão utilitarista da natureza. Entende-se que estas duas categorias são essenciais para se entender como a natureza passou a ser dessacralizada completamente pelo ser humano e como foram criadas as bases filosóficas para a houvesse a dominação dos homens sobre outros homens, postas em práticas com o advento do capitalismo.
