Diário da Constituinte [gravação de vídeo] : [programa n. 108]

Os Constituintes consideram que é dever do Estado proteger as crianças. João de Deus Antunes (PDT-RS) diz que o menor vai ser um dos mais privilegiados na nova carta constitucional. Pontos fundamentais dos direitos da criança: direito à vida, à saúde, à alimentação e à educação; diireito à assistência social, mesmo que os pais não contribuam para a previdência; proteção aos menores carentes e infratores; legislação especial sobre o trabalho do menor. Wilma Maia (PDS-RN) afirma que a nova Constituição tem de fazer cumprir os princípios de proteção dos menores, a começar pela educação, baseada um uma nova concepção, que ensine as crianças seus direitos e seus deveres. Robson Marinho (PMDB-SP) considera que no texto da nova Constituição estão assegurados os direitos básicos da criança. Mário Covas (PMDB-SP) acompanha as reuniões da Comissão de Sistematização e acredita na compatibilização dos diferentes textos feitos pelas distintas correntes políticas na Assembleia Nacional Constituinte (ANC). Artur da Távola (PMDB-RJ) aprova a permanência dos pontos mantidos no substitutivo da Comissão de Comunicação, especialmente as quatro finalidades da comunicação: cultural, educativa, regionalização da produção cultural e divulgação da cultura nacional. Bernardo Cabral (PMDB-AM), Relator da Comissão de Sistematização, faz balanço dos trabalhos e dos prazos. Na sessão O Povo Pergunta, cidadão quer saber o que está sendo decidido quanto a doação de órgãos. Uldurico Pinto (PMDB-BA) responde que todo cidadão é um doador em potencial, salvo aqueles que a família não permitir.

Benthic habitat mapping in the Olympic Coast National Marine Sanctuary: Classification of side scan sonar data from survey HMPR-108-2002-01: Version I

In September 2002, side scan sonar was used to image a portion of the sea floor in the northern OCNMS and was mosaiced at 1-meter pixel resolution using 100 kHz data collected at 300-meter range scale. Video from a remotely-operated vehicle (ROV), bathymetry data, sedimentary samples, and sonar mapping have been integrated to describe geological and biological aspects of habitat and polygon features have been created and attributed with a hierarchical deep-water marine benthic classification scheme (Greene et al. 1999). The data can be used with geographic information system (GIS) software for display, query, and analysis. Textural analysis of the sonar images provided a relatively automated method for delineating substrate into three broad classes representing soft, mixed sediment, and hard bottom. Microhabitat and presence of certain biologic attributes were also populated into the polygon features, but strictly limited to areas where video groundtruthing occurred. Further groundtruthing work in specific areas would improve confidence in the classified habitat map. (PDF contains 22 pages.)

Production of new superheavy Z=108-114 nuclei with U-238, Pu-244, and Cm-248,Cm-250 targets

Within the framework of the dinuclear system (DNS) model, production cross sections of new superheavy nuclei with charged numbers Z=108-114 are analyzed systematically. Possible combinations based on the actinide nuclides U-238, Pu-244, and Cm-248,Cm-250 with the optimal excitation energies and evaporation channels are pointed out to synthesize new isotopes that lie between the nuclides produced in the cold fusion reactions and the Ca-48-induced fusion reactions experimentally, which are feasible to be constructed experimentally. It is found that the production cross sections of superheavy nuclei decrease drastically with the charged numbers of compound nuclei. Larger mass asymmetries of the entrance channels enhance the cross sections in 2n-5n channels.

Evaluation of Five Interleukin Genes for Association with End-Stage Renal Disease in White Europeans

Background: Genetic variation within interleukin genes has been reported to be associated with end-stage renal disease (ESRD). These findings have not been consistently replicated. No study has yet reported the comprehensive investigation of IL1A, IL1B, IL1RN, IL6 and IL10 genes. Methods: 664 kidney transplant recipients (cases) and 577 kidney donors (controls) were genotyped to establish if common variants in interleukin genes are associated with ESRD. Single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) genotype data for each gene were downloaded for a northern and western European population from the International HapMap Project. Haploview was used to visualize linkage disequilibrium and select tag SNPs. Thirty SNPs were genotyped using MassARRAY (R) iPLEX Gold technology and data were analyzed using the chi(2) test for trend. Independent replication was conducted in 1,269 individuals with similar phenotypic characteristics. Results: Investigating all common variants in IL1A, IL1B, IL1RN, IL6 and IL10 genes revealed a statistically significant association (rs452204 p(empirical) = 0.02) with one IL1RN variant and ESRD. This IL1RN SNP tags three other variants, none of which have previously been reported to be associated with renal disease. Independent replication in a separate transplant population of comparable size did not confirm the original observation. Conclusions: Common variants in these five candidate interleukin genes are not major risk factors for ESRD in white Europeans. Copyright (C) 2010 S. Karger AG, Basel

Biological insights from 108 schizophrenia-associated genetic loci

Schizophrenia is a highly heritable disorder. Genetic risk is conferred by a large number of alleles, including common alleles of small effect that might be detected by genome-wide association studies. Here we report a multi-stage schizophrenia genome-wide association study of up to 36,989 cases and 113,075 controls. We identify 128 independent associations spanning 108 conservatively defined loci that meet genome-wide significance, 83 of which have not been previously reported. Associations were enriched among genes expressed in brain, providing biological plausibility for the findings. Many findings have the potential to provide entirely new insights into aetiology, but associations at DRD2 and several genes involved in glutamatergic neurotransmission highlight molecules of known and potential therapeutic relevance to schizophrenia, and are consistent with leading pathophysiological hypotheses. Independent of genes expressed in brain, associations were enriched among genes expressed in tissues that have important roles in immunity, providing support for the speculated link between the immune system and schizophrenia.
