Ações de promoção em saúde bucal: um estudo com o povo indígena Tremembé, CE

Este trabalho aborda ações de promoção em saúde desenvolcidas no Projeto de Saúde Bucal com Povo Indígena Tremembé, Ceará, viabilizadas por uma parceria da Igreja Metodista, Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Norte (UFRN) e Universidade Metodista de Piracicaba (UNIMEP). Pretendeu contribuir para a melhoria na qualidade da saúde bucal Tremembé valorizando etnoconhecimentos e saúde integral. A atuação priorizou Ações de Educação e Saúde utilizando um Levantamento Epidemiológico para o diagnóstico situacional de cárie e planejamento, e contemplou o Atendimento Odontológico. Nas Ações de Educação em Saúde utilizou-se a pedagogia da problematização através de Oficinas de Preservação em Saúde resultando na produção da Cartilha de Saúde Bucal Tremembé. Os dados epidemiológicos, com 102 indivíduos, obtidos através do índice CPO-D (dentes permanentes cariados, perdidos e obturados) foram organizados pelo programa Epi Info 6.04, em 4 grupos etários (até 24; 25-34; 35-44; 45›) resultando em médias que variaram de 9,5 a 20,9 respectivamente, evidenciando precária situação de saúde bucal. As ações de promoção em saúde contribuíram para consciência sanitária, no sentido da reivindicação dos direitos à saúde representada como um exercício da cidadania, bem como na busca pela autonomia em relação à prevenção de doenças bucais entre os Tremembé.

A importância do microcrédito para os empreendedores: um estudo com os grupos solidários de Fortaleza /CE

This study aims to understand the changes in the improvement of economic and social conditions of small entrepreneurs who participate in solidarity groups linked to the Non-Governmental Organization (NGO) "X" in Fortaleza city, Ceará, through the use of productive-guided microcredit. It is come a research in exploratory and descriptive nature, with a quantitative and qualitative approach. Data were collected from the small entrepreneurs by applying a questionnaire, as well as through structured interviews with group leaders. They were worked on issues relating to income generation, employment generation, housing and health conditions, dietary pattern and leisure activities of small entrepreneurs and their families before and after the union to solidarity groups and use of productive-guided microcredit. The research showed that the use of microcredit has interfered with social and economic life of these small entrepreneurs, generating positive effects

Adequação bioclimática para os espaços urbanos abertos do centro de Fortaleza, CE

This research presents a study investigating the correlation between the environmental-physycal charcateristics of cities and the formation of its micro-climates. The study was conducted in the central area of Fortaleza characterized as a stable and consolidated area, where the city originated and currently faces serious problems in its urban dynamics. The points of measurements were determined by the elaboration and analysis of topography maps, height of buildings, land use, type of surface coating and vegetation, following the methodology of Katzschner (1997). A zoning map was then determined, according to common morphological characteristics of the 12 measurement points, which were based on a set of Romero s (2001) bioclimatic criteria. Air measurements, temperature, humidity, intensity and direction of winds were made in transect form in two different circuits in the study area, with six points of data collection in each area, in three different times: 6:00 am, 1:00pm and 7:00pm, during two periods of the year: August 2008 and March 2009. The results verified the influence of different environmental-physical types in the behavior of the climatic variables that were collected. A verticalização tão condenada em algumas situações se bem equilibrada e controlada pode reduzir as temperaturas do ar através do sombreamento dos espaços urbanos e possibilidade de maior permeabilidade a ventilação natural. The highest average air temperature and lower humidity were recorded at the point I at all times. This situation may have been in result of the high density, poor vegetation and extended paving of the ground. According to the results, it s clear the positive influence vegetation has on easing air temperature. Another indicator observed that areas with a greater variation in building heights tend to present decreased average air temperature. High rise structure, planned in accordance to urban air quality parameters, can reduce air temperatures by the shading of urban spaces and the possibility of greater penetration of natural ventilation

O Plano Diretor como instrumento de gestão da cidade: o caso da cidade de Fortaleza/CE

According to article 182 of the Brazilian Federal Constitution, cities should perform social function, what brings the concept that the city should be a place for one to live well. For that to happen, it should be well administered by its public managers. However, so that there is a sound administration, one that really performs that social function, there must be, first, an efficient planning. We understand that such a thing occurs when the master plan is the main planning instrument of a city and serves as basis for its administration. We notice, however, that in most of the cities the master plan is formulated as a law that regulates urban planning but that both the population and the government most of the times are not aware of its importance concerning the relevant issues related to municipal administration, such as its relationship with the economy, taxation, the social issue, land use regulation, and, in summary, with all the aspects that constitute and that a municipal government should manage in the best possible way. One also knows that, in general, the attempt of city planning has always been connected to the duration of a mandate and that way public managers many times implement restricted measures aiming to just attain a political-electoral objective and publicizing their administration. That implies actions and works that in some cases have negative impacts or ones that cannot be removed from the cities. This study intends to show that the master plan should be the planning instrument guiding the municipal administration but that, however, what we note is a lack of connection between that instrument and the government guidelines of the municipal managers. In order to study what happens to the cities that have a planning which is not taken into account in its administration, we will use the city of Fortaleza, capital of the State of Ceará as a case study. Historically, in Fortaleza the public managers have seldom decided to administer the city in according to the master plans developed for it. We should emphasize that planning begins in the city quite late and until the current days it is being substituted by temporary measures. Through the analysis of the planning process and of the urban management of the city of Fortaleza, especially the master plans predicted since 1933, we explain that if such plans had been implemented, they could have been important tools for its administration to attain a social function, becoming therefore a place for one to live well

ESTUDO DA GÊNESE DOS EVENTOS PLUVIOMÉTRICOS, IGUAIS OU SUPERIORES A 100 mm/24h, NA CIDADE DE FORTALEZA-CE, NO PERÍODO DE 1996 – 2008

O trabalho objetiva analisar a gênese dos sistemas atmosféricos no período entre os anos de 1996 ao ano 2008, associados a ocorrência de eventos iguais ou superiores a 100mm/24h para a cidade de Fortaleza, Ceará, Brasil. O material utilizado é proveniente da base de dados da estação pluviométrica da Fundação Cearense de Meteorologia (FUNCEME), no Bairro São Gerardo, cartas sinóticas, imagens de satélites, dados de Temperatura de Superfície do Mar (TSM), reportagens jornalísticas e dados da Defesa Civil do Brasil. Inicialmente identificou-se os sistemas, considerando como base o acompanhamento dos dias que registraram os eventos pluviométricos mencionados acima. A sua repercussão na cidade revela pontos críticos associados a áreas de maior vulnerabilidade socioambiental, locais associados ao crescimento demasiado da cidade de Fortaleza, bem como a falta de políticas públicas e planejamento urbano da metrópole. Os eventos iguais ou superiores a 100mm/24h foram muito atuantes no período destacado, vindo a comprometer ainda mais a falta de estrutura da cidade.

POLÍTICAS LOCAIS DE SEGURANÇA ALIMENTAR E AGRICULTURAFAMILIAR NO MACIÇO DE BATURITÈ – CE – BRA

A discussão da Segurança Alimentar e Nutricional está envolta às políticas públicas que apresentam como objetivo a busca pela inclusão social. Assim, o artigo visa trilhar um percurso investigativo sobre a eficácia das políticas públicas voltadas para articulação de redes de segurança alimentar existentes no município brasileiro de Baturité, tendo como foco elevar as condições de renda e de emprego na agricultura familiar à exemplo do estabelecimento e incentivo à arranjos territoriais vinculados à agricultores familiares que desenvolvem sua pequena produção sobre uma base agroecológica na Região Maciço de Baturité no Estado do Ceará, os quais fornecem alimentos perecíveis para a alimentação escolar em creches e cozinhas de hospitais. Essas políticas configuram-se como eixo articulador e sistêmico, por meio do qual se desenham intervenções sociais focadas na participação, na relação poder público e sociedade civil, na partilha de poder e em mais uma série de outras vertentes, por possuírem concretude analítica. Os percursos em curso pautados na segurança alimentar e nutricional têm contribuído para a constituição de uma nova organização do espaço, bem como para inclusão social, gerando possibilidades de emprego e renda, além da melhoria da qualidade alimentar de diversos atores sociais envolvidos.

The effect of metamictization on the Raman spectroscopy of the uranyl titanate mineral davidite (La,Ce)(Y,U,Fe2+)(Ti,Fe3+)20(O,OH)38

Raman spectra of the uranyl titanate mineral davidite-(La) (La,Ce)(Y,U,Fe2+)(Ti,Fe3+)20(O,OH)38 were analysed and related to the mineral structure. Observed bands are attributed to the TiO and (UO2)2+ stretching and bending vibrations, U-OH bending vibrations, H2O and (OH)- stretching, bending and libration modes. U-O bond lengths in uranyls and O-H…O bond lengths are calculated from the wavenumbers assigned to the stretching vibrations. Raman bands of davidite-(La) are in harmony with those of the uranyl oxyhydroxides. The mineral davidite-(La) is metamict as is evidenced by the intensity of the UO stretching and bending modes being of lower intensity than expected and with bands that are significantly broader.
