INTRODUÇÃO: O AQUEDUTO DA ÁGUA DA PRATA, do alto do seu estatuto de monumento nacional e de maior projeto de aparato público do Renascimento português, tem exercido ao longo dos séculos um considerável fascínio sobre os que estimam o património histórico da cidade de Évora. E muitas são as razões que justificam um tal sentimento. Além das duas evocadas, talvez valha a pena arrolar a mais pueril de todas: a de que o velho aqueduto quinhentista, resistindo às vicissitudes do tempo, ainda hoje continua a cumprir a sua função original- o abastecimento de água potável e perene a Évora. E não se julgue que este aqueduto se limita à imagem iconográfica do arcaria agigantando-se à passagem da muralha medieval: uma complexa rede de nascentes e sistemas de adução, a montante, e um notável património urbano constituído, sobretudo, por fontes e chafarizes, a jusante, dão corpo a uma vasta estrutura hidráulica de captação, transporte e distribuição de água com mais de 19 km de extensão. E, este sim, é o verdadeiro monumento, tão utilitário quanto grandioso, que os antigos documentos designam, apropriadamente, por Cano Real da Agua da Prata. Naturalmente, nem todo este cano real resistiu ao tempo, sobretudo o troço rural entre S. Bento de Cástris e as nascentes do Divor, onde a estrutura hidráulica original foi edificada com evidente simplicidade de recursos. O seu avançado estado de ruína, obrigou, inclusivamente, a uma profunda reforma iniciada em 1873, de que resultou a catual configuração do Aqueduto, visível, sobretudo, entre a estrada de Arraiolos (monte das Pinas) e Metrogos. Esta reforma foi ampliada em sucessivas campanhas de beneficiação até cerca de 1930, época em que se iniciou a rede de distribuição domiciliária de água com a construção dos reservatórios de chegada, a central elevatória e o depósito elevado, marcas arquitetónicas ainda hoje bem visíveis na cidade, algumas das quais oportunamente integradas num itinerário expositivo municipal. Neste contexto, é natural que a relação afetiva comungada pela generalidade dos eborenses com este património monumental também se insinue na escrita familiar e sincera dos "eborógrafos". E muitos foram - entre nomes de diferentes épocas e desigual dimensão biográfica - os que lhe dedicaram generosas páginas de divulgação histórica4 , contributos científicos diversos, projetos de investigação arquitetónica e arqueológica, estudos de recuperação e valorização patrimonial, e até, como nos assegura Diogo Barbosa Machado, um "Tratado do Aqueducto Real da Fonte da agua da prata dedicado ao Senado da Cidade de Évora, em cujo Cartorio fe guarda" (MACHADO, 1741: 72), obra assinada pelo vereador (1605-1606) e Provedor do Cano, Agostinho de Moura Peçanha, e da qual parece não restar memória nos nossos arquivos. Diga-se, a propósito, que este acentuado interesse público pelo aqueduto de Évora, em especial nos últimos anos, tem sublinhado a importância da dinamização e rentabilização do seu enorme potencial turístico, lúdico e cultural, sendo bom exemplo a recente criação do "Percurso Ambiental da Água da Prata", por iniciativa camarária. Em muitos destes aspetos nos revemos tributários, quando não devedores. Talvez por isso nos sentimos tentados, desde há vários anos, a avançar no estudo e salvaguarda deste importante património local. Vontade adiada, diga-se, sobretudo pela manifesta falta de disponibilidade para levar a cabo um projeto de investigação, coerente e consequente, no mínimo tocado por algum ensaio de novidade. Contudo, em 2007, circunstâncias várias levaram-nos a interessar definitivamente pelo tema. Uma das que mais terá pesado resultou da leitura do um artigo publicado na revista Monumentos com o título "o sistema hidráulico quinhentista da cidade de Évora". Nele, os seus reputados autores sentenciavam a inexistência de um aqueduto romano anterior à obra quinhentista por mera impossibilidade técnica, afirmando-o com tal segurança que nem sentiram necessidade de esboçar a mais leve argumentação topográfica em defesa da sua tese. Dito assim, ficámos a imaginar se valeria o esforço tentar reabilitar alguma vez o tema do aqueduto romano. Em boa hora o decidimos fazer. E partimos do princípio de que a interpretação dos factos devia ser feita por cuidadosa recolha de prova que a diligência (não raras vezes a ventura) permitisse carrear com sucesso. E sendo correta esta premissa, a sua oportunidade ganhou mais força com a materialização de resultados concretos a compulsar toda a bibliografia para confronto de dúvidas e incoerências; a recolher indícios de estruturas e materiais arqueológicos; a esmiuçar a toponímia e a cartografia; a rever os locais-chave uma e outra vez; a seguir pistas abandonadas; a filtrar informação variada no mesmo crivo da dúvida; a entusiasmar gente da historiografia local a acreditar na viabilidade de hipóteses. Foi, justamente, esta a metodologia adotada ao decidirmo-nos pelo tema do Aqueduto. E, ao segui-la, julgamos ter logrado alcançar, além de um lastro de legitimidade científica, as bases conceptuais de um projeto de investigação consistente e coerente onde muito ajudou a imediata estudaram a hidráulica em Évora. ...

No seio da reforma da administração pública portuguesa, decorrente da crise do Estado de bem-estar social, emerge a reforma do ensino superior português, através da Lei n.º 62/2007, de 10 de setembro que institui o Regime Jurídico das Instituições de Ensino Superior. Além de se caraterizar por uma reforma que visa um sistema de ensino com uma maior qualidade, provocando assim profundas mudanças nomeadamente na reestruturação da estrutura orgânica e do poder interno das universidades, o Regime Jurídico das Instituições de Ensino Superior possibilitou às universidades a adoção de um novo regime jurídico capaz de promover uma concorrência visando a excelência das universidades – o regime fundacional. Assim, na senda do Regime Jurídico das Instituições de Ensino Superior, as universidades podem revestir a natureza jurídica de fundações públicas de direito privado, passando a reger-se pelo direito privado no que concerne à gestão financeira, à gestão patrimonial e à gestão de recursos humanos, obtendo assim um reforço de autonomia. Considerando que a Universidade do Porto sofreu alterações em consequência da adoção do regime fundacional, a presente dissertação tem como objetivo identificar o nível de conhecimento da comunidade académica da Universidade do Porto em relação ao regime fundacional. Desta forma, o estudo desenvolvido permite concluir que a comunidade académica não possui conhecimento sobre as competências do Conselho de Curadores, contudo, possui um nível de conhecimento fraco em relação às vantagens do regime fundacional, assim como, relativamente às alterações na autonomia organizacional, na autonomia de recursos humanos e na autonomia financeira decorrentes da adoção do regime fundacional.

Esse projeto de intervenção objetivou por meio de ações informativas/educativas em saúde, implementar estratégias entre a Fundação para o Estudo e Tratamento das Deformidades Crânio-Faciais – FUNCRAF e a Unidade Básica de Saúde 26 de Agosto – Dr. Jair Garcia de Freitas em Campo Grande/MS, facilitando a identificação e encaminhamento precoce ao atendimento auditivo, divulgando o atendimento especializado e garantindo o acesso e continuidade ao tratamento da deficiência auditiva, reduzindo assim prejuízos à saúde auditiva com faltas e abandono. Para tanto, o ápice do projeto se deu com a realização do Dia D sobre Saúde Auditiva, momento esse em que foi realizado triagem auditiva para identificação de casos suspeitos e/ou com diagnóstico de deficiência auditiva. Esse momento foi realizado no dia 14/05/2014 em parceria com a Seleta Sociedade Caritativa e Humanitária. Foram feitas 119 triagens e dessas 60% tornaram-se caso FUNCRAF. Este projeto de intervenção trouxe um maior conhecimento da rede de saúde auditiva aos profissionais da UBS 26 de Agosto e aos usuários que participaram da triagem auditiva, além deles serem multiplicadores do atendimento disponível na FUNCRAF pela rede SUS. Os resultados obtidos demonstraram que há uma grande carência da rede e da sociedade como um todo de ações sobre saúde auditiva, evidenciando a necessidade imediata de implantar e desenvolver, campanhas e projetos de natureza educativa/informativa, com o intuito de melhorar a atual situação de saúde auditiva da população.

The Centers for High Cost Medication (Centros de Medicação de Alto Custo, CEDMAC), Health Department, São Paulo were instituted by project in partnership with the Clinical Hospital of the Faculty of Medicine, USP, sponsored by the Foundation for Research Support of the State of São Paulo (Fundação de Amparo à Pesquisa do Estado de São Paulo, FAPESP) aimed at the formation of a statewide network for comprehensive care of patients referred for use of immunobiological agents in rheumatological diseases. The CEDMAC of Hospital de Clínicas, Universidade Estadual de Campinas (HC-Unicamp), implemented by the Division of Rheumatology, Faculty of Medical Sciences, identified the need for standardization of the multidisciplinary team conducts, in face of the specificity of care conducts, verifying the importance of describing, in manual format, their operational and technical processes. The aim of this study is to present the methodology applied to the elaboration of the CEDMAC/HC-Unicamp Manual as an institutional tool, with the aim of offering the best assistance and administrative quality. In the methodology for preparing the manuals at HC-Unicamp since 2008, the premise was to obtain a document that is participatory, multidisciplinary, focused on work processes integrated with institutional rules, with objective and didactic descriptions, in a standardized format and with electronic dissemination. The CEDMAC/HC-Unicamp Manual was elaborated in 10 months, with involvement of the entire multidisciplinary team, with 19 chapters on work processes and techniques, in addition to those concerning the organizational structure and its annexes. Published in the electronic portal of HC Manuals in July 2012 as an e-Book (ISBN 978-85-63274-17-5), the manual has been a valuable instrument in guiding professionals in healthcare, teaching and research activities.

What is the contribution of the provision, at no cost for users, of long acting reversible contraceptive methods (LARC; copper intrauterine device [IUD], the levonorgestrel-releasing intrauterine system [LNG-IUS], contraceptive implants and depot-medroxyprogesterone [DMPA] injection) towards the disability-adjusted life years (DALY) averted through a Brazilian university-based clinic established over 30 years ago. Over the last 10 years of evaluation, provision of LARC methods and DMPA by the clinic are estimated to have contributed to DALY averted by between 37 and 60 maternal deaths, 315-424 child mortalities, 634-853 combined maternal morbidity and mortality and child mortality, and 1056-1412 unsafe abortions averted. LARC methods are associated with a high contraceptive effectiveness when compared with contraceptive methods which need frequent attention; perhaps because LARC methods are independent of individual or couple compliance. However, in general previous studies have evaluated contraceptive methods during clinical studies over a short period of time, or not more than 10 years. Furthermore, information regarding the estimation of the DALY averted is scarce. We reviewed 50 004 medical charts from women who consulted for the first time looking for a contraceptive method over the period from 2 January 1980 through 31 December 2012. Women who consulted at the Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, University of Campinas, Brazil were new users and users switching contraceptive, including the copper IUD (n = 13 826), the LNG-IUS (n = 1525), implants (n = 277) and DMPA (n = 9387). Estimation of the DALY averted included maternal morbidity and mortality, child mortality and unsafe abortions averted. We obtained 29 416 contraceptive segments of use including 25 009 contraceptive segments of use from 20 821 new users or switchers to any LARC method or DMPA with at least 1 year of follow-up. The mean (± SD) age of the women at first consultation ranged from 25.3 ± 5.7 (range 12-47) years in the 1980s, to 31.9 ± 7.4 (range 16-50) years in 2010-2011. The most common contraceptive chosen at the first consultation was copper IUD (48.3, 74.5 and 64.7% in the 1980s, 1990s and 2000s, respectively). For an evaluation over 20 years, the cumulative pregnancy rates (SEM) were 0.4 (0.2), 2.8 (2.1), 4.0 (0.4) and 1.3 (0.4) for the LNG-IUS, the implants, copper IUD and DMPA, respectively and cumulative continuation rates (SEM) were 15.1 (3.7), 3.9 (1.4), 14.1 (0.6) and 7.3 (1.7) for the LNG-IUS, implants, copper IUD and DMPA, respectively (P < 0.001). Over the last 10 years of evaluation, the estimation of the contribution of the clinic through the provision of LARC methods and DMPA to DALY averted was 37-60 maternal deaths; between 315 and 424 child mortalities; combined maternal morbidity and mortality and child mortality of between 634 and 853, and 1056-1412 unsafe abortions averted. The main limitations are the number of women who never returned to the clinic (overall 14% among the four methods under evaluation); consequently the pregnancy rate could be different. Other limitations include the analysis of two kinds of copper IUD and two kinds of contraceptive implants as the same IUD or implant, and the low number of users of implants. In addition, the DALY calculation relies on a number of estimates, which may vary in different parts of the world. LARC methods and DMPA are highly effective and women who were well-counselled used these methods for a long time. The benefit of averting maternal morbidity and mortality, child mortality, and unsafe abortions is an example to health policy makers to implement more family planning programmes and to offer contraceptive methods, mainly LARC and DMPA, at no cost or at affordable cost for the underprivileged population. This study received partial financial support from the Fundação de Amparo à Pesquisa do Estado de São Paulo (FAPESP), grant # 2012/12810-4 and from the National Research Council (CNPq), grant #573747/2008-3. B.F.B., M.P.G., and V.M.C. were fellows from the scientific initiation programme from FAPESP. Since the year 2001, all the TCu380A IUD were donated by Injeflex, São Paulo, Brazil, and from the year 2006 all the LNG-IUS were donated by the International Contraceptive Access Foundation (ICA), Turku, Finland. Both donations are as unrestricted grants. The authors declare that there are no conflicts of interest associated with this study.

To characterize cumulative joint damage (CJD) patterns in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and determine their associations with demographic/clinical features and HLA-DRB1 gene polymorphism. Hand and foot radiographs were obtained from 404 patients with RA. CJD patterns were determined by 3 derivations from Sharp/van der Heijde scores, obtained by the mathematical division of scores for hands/feet (Sharp-h/f score), fingers/wrists (Sharp-f/w score), and erosion/space narrowing (Sharp-e/sn score), respectively. DNA and serum were obtained for determination of HLA-DRB1 polymorphism, rheumatoid factor (RF), and anticitrullinated protein antibodies (ACPA). Patients with wrist-dominant CJD pattern were more likely to have severe RA than those with finger-dominant pattern (68.4% vs 46.0%; p = 0.036) as were those with foot-dominant vs hand-dominant CJD pattern (76.5% vs 56.4%; p = 0.044). HLA-DRB1 shared epitope (SE) alleles were associated with erosion-dominant CJD pattern (p = 0.021). Patients with erosion-dominant CJD pattern had higher levels of RF and ACPA than those with space-narrowing-dominant CJD pattern (median RF 71.35 U/ml vs 22.05 U/ml, respectively; p = 0.003; median ACPA 187.9 U/ml vs 143.2 U/ml, respectively; p < 0.001). The majority of triple-positive patients (SE+, RF+, ACPA+) had erosion-dominant CJD pattern (62.3%) while the majority of triple-negative patients (SE-, FR-, ACPA-) had space narrowing-dominant CJD pattern (75%; p = 0.017). ACPA was associated with HLA-DRB1 SE alleles (p < 0.05). Patients with foot-dominant CJD pattern were taller than those with hand-dominant CJD pattern (p = 0.002); those with erosion-dominant CJD pattern had higher weight and body mass index than those with space narrowing-dominant CJD pattern (p = 0.014, p = 0.001). CJD patterns were associated with disease severity, HLA-DRB1 SE status, presence and titer of ACPA and RF, and morphometric features.

In insects that utilize patchy and ephemeral resources for feeding and egg laying, the outcome of larval competition for food resources depends on the amount of resources and the spatial distribution of immatures among patches of food. In the present study, the results of larval competition for food in Chrysomya megacephala, in traits such as female weight, fecundity and reproductive investment, were different in situations where the level of larval aggregation (proportion of competitors per amount of food) was the same, but with densities of competitors and amounts of food proportionally different. These results are indicative that the larval competition may depend both on the larval density and the amount of food, in different situations with the same proportion of larvae per gram of food.

Language, culture, and otherness are complementary and also confliting issues representing the central debate on childhood and the child who carries the signals of social and/or ethinical of exclusion. The debate on the social still connected to universal and absolute values and trues, therefore the theme needs a reavaliation on the realm of relativism. Questioning the fact that culture and otherness are expressed by language which are not always visible and explicit, requering a close and deep look at many social realities enpoorvered suburbs and rural areas, white and black children, homeless children, we kept their voices and speaches, their images from their own drawings to understand the way the percept mean they live and they are. These children have a word for school, and also about the process and agents to say by many different ways to express how they look their own world and how the world look at them.

This text offers some contributions to the debate on the changes proposed to the National Curricular Directives to reform secondary education in Brazil. In the first part, the political and economic scene is evaluated as the context which generated the last stage of reforms in the educational field in the 90s. It questions the option for a model of structural reform (in the Brazilian case more restricted to the Program for Reform of Professional Education - PROEP) and of the curriculum, whose themes find their justification in the contemporary economic, social cultural and political context. It discusses the use of a model that bases itself on experiences developed in other countries and takes the international orientation of the multilateral organizations as its theoretical methodological reference, leaving out the peculiarities and injunctions of the Brazilian political administrative system. Such a policy measure can increase the tension and distance normally existing between government programs and the possibility of their real implementation in the school network. In the second part, it discusses the Resolution of the National Education Council, the Congress on Basic Education, no.3, of 16.698 that instituted the National Curricular Directives for secondary education, as well as the Legal Bases - Part I - of the National Curricular Parameters for secondary education. The analysis of official discourse takes Bardin's (1977, p. 209) proposals as its methodological reference for the models of structural analysis, seeking to make the implicit values and the connotations of the legal texts explicit

This reaserch analysed the developmental stage of fourth grade (primary school) children in ability of writting argumentative texts joint with their context. The reason of this reaserch is the lack of new studies in linguistical area and high ratio of unable students to make this kind of text. It will be showed the analysis of making text by public schools children for three months. These data were analysed trying identify argumentative operators, the kinds of arguments used and the stage of the argumentative ability of these children. The study showed that the introduction of argumentative text in first grades give them more chances of succeed, preparing these pupils in their finishing high school. This fact obviously will make easier the development of their critical point of view, helping the students to think about their living social reality.

The objective of this article is to examine the current government proposal of racialization in the Brazilian population, in order to offer support to affirmative action programs that meet the specific needs of those who classify themselves as black. Firstly we focused on the revival of the notion of race among scholars, politicians, and anti-racism activists, as well as on the difficulty in determining who is black in Brazil. Next we examined the racial quota system in the United States and its proclaimed success. Finally, we assessed the extent to which the introduction of racial quota in employment and university enrollment should be imposed as the sole political option for those intending to eliminate racism in Brazilian society.
