Relações raciais: a pesquisa na pós-graduação em educação no Brasil (2005 – 2010)

A educação é o processo de inserção de homens e mulheres no mundo cultural. E a educação, dentro das sociedades mais complexas como as capitalistas industriais, é uma atividade planejada, que implica a elaboração de objetivos e a indicação de meios para atingi-los. A compreensão das tramas de construção de práticas formalizadas é ligada a agentes que determinam os objetivos da educação e suas intenções educativas sobre Relações Raciais no Brasil. Dediquei-me às atividades de levantamento acadêmico sobre a produção de teses de doutoramento, concluídas entre os anos 2005-2010, e a respeito de pesquisas e estudos sobre Educação e Relações Raciais nos Programas de Pós-Graduação em Educação. Investiguei sobre a circulação da temática relações raciais em espaços de elaboração de políticas educacionais, especificamente programas do Governo Federal que atendam à demanda de inclusão da temática no sistema de ensino no Brasil. Pois, a partir de 2003, a temática passa por uma fase de institucionalização, principalmente pelo conjunto jurídico que estabelece novo marco legal à educação. O objeto pesquisado incluiu a configuração de práticas formalizadas que desenvolvem quadros de agentes especializados sobre relações raciais. Analisar a relação intencional entre as práticas formalizadas sobre relações raciais que prescrevem a formulação de objetivos educacionais nos diferentes níveis e instâncias sociais. Identificar os objetivos do sistema de ensino descritos nos programas do Governo Federal destinados à promoção da educação para igualdade racial. Relacionar as práticas formalizadas no campo da pesquisa em educação às intenções descritas nos programas do Governo Federal. Explicar quais os interesses que movem essas práticas formalizadas a partir das demandas educacionais da temática relações raciais. A escrita da tese pauta-se na defesa de análise em que a obrigatoriedade da temática relações raciais é movida por duas forças antagônicas, uma direcionada à constituição de direito à cidadania movida por intenções de construir uma sociedade para a igualdade racial, de oportunidades de acesso a bens materiais e simbólicos e livre de práticas discriminatórias; outra relacionada aos interesses existentes dentro de um jogo de poder a ponto de converter a educação no centro de tão acerba disputa que desfavorece dissimuladamente a equidade racial no Brasil.

Search for gravitational wave ringdowns from perturbed intermediate mass black holes in LIGO-Virgo data from 2005-2010

We report results from a search for gravitational waves produced by perturbed intermediate mass black holes ( IMBH) in data collected by LIGO and Virgo between 2005 and 2010. The search was sensitive to astrophysical sources that produced damped sinusoid gravitational wave signals, also known as ringdowns, with frequency 50 <= f(0)/Hz <= 2000 and decay timescale 0.0001 less than or similar to tau/s less than or similar to 0.1 characteristic of those produced in mergers of IMBH pairs. No significant gravitational wave candidate was detected. We report upper limits on the astrophysical coalescence rates of IMBHs with total binary mass 50 <= M/ M circle dot <= 450 and component mass ratios of either 1: 1 or 4: 1. For systems with total mass 100 <= M/M circle dot <= 150, we report a 90% confidence upper limit on the rate of binary IMBH mergers with nonspinning and equal mass components of 6.9 x 10(-8) Mpc(-3) yr(-1). We also report a rate upper limit for ringdown waveforms from perturbed IMBHs, radiating 1% of their mass as gravitational waves in the fundamental, l = m = 2, oscillation mode, that is nearly three orders of magnitude more stringent than previous results.

Spatial analysis of pertussis cases in Harris County from 2005-2010

Objective: This study examined the recent trends and characteristics of reported pertussis in Harris County from 2005-2010. ^ Methods: The study population included surveillance data from all reported pertussis cases from January 1, 2005 to December 31, 2010 to Harris County Public Health and Environmental Services (HCPHES). We calculated incidence and attack rates for varying age groups, race/ethnicity, and gender. Spatial analyses were conducted of hot spot and cluster of incident cases in Harris County census tracts. Maps were constructed using geographic information system. ^ Results: Age-specific incidence rates of reported cases of pertussis were highest among infants under a year of age and lowest among adults age 20 and older. Hispanics represented the most cases reported compared to any other race or ethnic group (42% of 483 cases). Age-adjusted rates were highest in 2009 at 9.81 cases per 100,000 population. Only 31.2% of people received at least four of the recommended five doses of vaccine. Spatial analyses revealed statistically significant clusters within the northeast region of Harris County. ^ Conclusions: Hispanic infants are the most at risk group for pertussis. Although 70% of cases had a history of immunization, 41.8% of infants were appropriately vaccinated for their age. Increased vaccination coverage may decrease the incidence of pertussis.^

Disparities in foodborne illness in Harris County, Texas, 2005--2010

Using a retrospective cross-sectional approach, this study quantitatively analyzed foodborne illness data, restaurant inspection data, and census-derived socioeconomic and demographic data within Harris County, Texas between 2005 and 2010. The main research question investigated involved determining the extent to which contextual and regulatory conditions distinguish outbreak and non-outbreak establishments within Harris County. Two groups of Harris County establishments were analyzed: outbreak and non-outbreak restaurants. STATA 11 was employed to determine the average profiles of each category across both the regulatory and socioeconomic (contextual) variables. Cross tabulations of all of the non-quantitative variables were also performed, and finally, a discriminant analysis was conducted to assess how well the variables were able to allocate the restaurants into their respective categories. Contextual and regulatory conditions were found to be minimally associated with the occurrence of foodborne outbreaks within Harris County. Across both the categories (outbreak and non-outbreak establishments), variables included were extremely similar in means, and when possible to observe, distributions. The variables analyzed in this study, both regulatory and contextual, were not found to significantly allocate the establishments into their correct outbreak or non-outbreak categories. The implications of these findings are that regulatory processes and guidelines in place in Harris County do not effectively to distinguish outbreak from non-outbreak restaurants. Additionally, no socioeconomic or racial/ethnic patterns are apparent in the incidence of foodborne disease in the county. ^
