Avaliação das dimensões e relacionamento dos arcos dentários após tratamento com Bionator de Balters

The deficiency of data in the literature took us to evaluate the Bionator of Balters appliance in the alterations of the dimensions and the relationship of the dental archs in children with malocclusion Class II, division 1 of Angle. The experimental group was constituted by 36 pairs cast Caucasians patients, aged between 7 years and 10 months - 11 years and 8 months, being 10 females and 8 males. The Levene´s test showed statistical evidences of likeness among the groups. Statistical analysis was preceded and showed significant alterations (p < 0,005) in the variable indicatives of maxillary first molars' distance, overjet, upper arch total length, upper arch anterior length, right molar relationship, left molar relationship, right canine relationship and left canine relationship. On the other hand, there wasn't significant alteration related to the lower arch and maxillary intercanines distance. The Balters' Bionator appliance had a favorable effect in the improvement of the correction of the malocclusion in Class II (foremost in molars and canines relationship) and transversal increase of the upper arch, mainly in the posterior area of arch.

Relacionamentos amorosos na pós-modernidade: análise das consultas apresentadas em sites de relacionamento amoroso

The contemporary culture is based in a logic of acceleration and shortening of the relationships, a logic that disseminates and lodges in the subjectivity, so as to affect the most varied spheres of life. The purpose of the present work is to examine the conflicts that emerge in love relationships lived in such context. Seventy-four queries submitted by the users of two love-consultancy websites were taken as the object of our analysis. The complaints presented by the users were collated to the paradigms of relationship produced in the contemporary days. It was possible to observe that the modes of subjectification predominant nowadays can be apprehended in the love sphere of the human life and that from those modes derive most of the affective conflicts reported by people who seek advice in those websites. The sentimental hardship of these subjects denounces the ills of our days.

Produção de celulases por fungos filamentosos da Antártica: busca por novo recurso genético para obtenção de bioetanol

Na busca de novos recursos genéticos capazes de produzir enzimas celulolíticas a baixas/médias temperaturas, o continente Antártico vem demonstrando ser um ambiente bastante promissor. Neste contexto, o objetivo do presente trabalho foi avaliar a influência de diferentes fatores na produção de celulases por fungos filamentosos isolados de amostras da Antártica visando otimização do processo possível aplicação das mesmas na produção de etanol de segunda geração. Foram utilizados os fungos L1-1 e E5B da Central de Recursos Microbianos da UNESP (CRM-UNESP) os quais foram previamente selecionados devido ao potencial celulolítico. O delineamento experimental foi utilizado para analisar a influência de variáveis independentes na produção enzimática. A quantificação da celulase foi realizada pelo método do ácido dinitrosalicílico (ADNS). Antes de iniciar à aplicação dos planejamentos experimentais, foram adotadas estratégias para tentar minimizar e otimizar ao máximo o potencial dos isolados, as quais resultaram no estabelecimento da melhor agitação e a temperatura para a produção de celulase em 150 rpm e 20°C, para os dois isolados estudados. Inicialmente os fungos E5B e L1-1 apresentavam suas produções enzimáticas em 0,233U/mL e 0,342U/mL, respectivamente (antes da aplicação dos desenhos experimentais). Durante a condução do planejamento experimental do tipo Plackett&Burman(PB), foi verificada a preferência dos isolados pela fonte de carbono glicose, com efeito significativo na produção de celulases para os dois isolados. Tendo em vista o seu elevado custo comercial, foram realizados estudos com a sacarose, uma fonte de carbono alternativa e mais barata, bem como indutores enzimáticos. Após três planejamentos experimentais do tipo PB, foi selecionado o isolado L1-1 como o melhor produtor da enzima celulase. Após a condução de um quarto planejamento experimental do tipo Fatorial Fracionado 24-1, as...

Polimosfismo genético da glicose-6-fosfato desidrogenase na população da região de Araraquara-SP

The most important role played by the enzyme Glucose- 6-Phosphate Dehydrogenase (G6PD) in erythrocyte metabolism is in generating energy and reducing power used to protect the cell against oxidative attack. G6PD deficiency is the erythroenzymopathy that most frequently causes hemolytic anemia, and more than 130 molecular variants have already been identified. The aim of this study was to analyze the genetic mutations in the G6PD-deficient adult males in the population of the region of Araraquara, São Paulo State. Out of 5087 male blood donors, 89 were deficient for G6PD, as confirmed by assaying the enzyme activity and electrophoresis on cellulose acetate. Thus, a frequency of 1.75% of G6PD-deficient patients was found, this value being similar to other investigations in São Paulo state. Molecular analysis was performed by amplification of genomic DNA with specific primers and digestion with restriction enzymes. In 96.6% of the patients, the G6PD A¯ variant was observed, with mutations at residues 376(A→G) and 202(G→A). Mean G6PD specific activity among the patients was 1.31 IU.g Hb-1.min-1 at 37ºC, that is 10.8% of the normal activity of the G6PD B enzyme. The variant forms G6PD A¯ 680(G→T) and 968(T→C) were not found. In 3.4% of the deficient individuals, the G6PD Mediterranean variant was found, with a mutation at 563(C→T). In these cases, mean enzymatic activity was 0.25 IU.g Hb-1.min-1 at 37ºC, or 2.1% of the enzymatic activity of G6PD B. The use of traditional techniques, allied to the identification of the different molecular variants, is important for the understanding of the structural and functional properties and hemolytic behavior of the red blood cells of the patient.

Relacionamento entre as variáveis da corrida de aproximação e da posição de pé de apoio com a velocidade da bola nos chutes com o membro dominante e não dominante

The aim of the study was to analyze the relationship between run-up spatial-temporal variables with ball velocity in the dominant and non-dominant kicks, and to compare the ball velocity between contralateral limbs. Six futsal players (aged 13 and 14 years) participated in the study. The participants performed 4 kicks with maximal velocity in the stationary ball with each limb. Participants’ movements were recorded by 4 digital cameras (120 Hz). Dvideow software was used for kinematic procedures. The variables analyzed were: length and width of the last but one step and last step before ball contact, distance of the support foot to the ball, run-up velocity and ball velocity. The relationship between spatial-temporal variables with the ball velocity was analyzed by linear regressions with ball velocity as dependent variable. Student t test for paired samples was used to compare ball velocity between dominant and non-dominant kicks. For the dominant limb, the ball velocity was predicted only by the run-up velocity in 16.7%, while for the non-dominant limb only the distance of the support foot to the ball was prognostic variable in 11.9%. The ball velocity was greater for the dominant limb. Run-up variables that predictive ball velocity were different between the dominant and non-dominant kicks.

Relacionamento e coordenação da cadeia produtiva da mandioca no Noroeste do Paraná

The production of starch and cassava starch (Manihot esculenta) if has shown to an important business for the region the northwest of the Paraná, generating income and job for a significant agricultural producers. The production of the region is processed for industries at private capital and cooperatives of producers. The study involving agricultural producers and one of the most important cooperatives of the region (C-Vale) objectified to evaluate the relationships between cooperative and producers, and the mechanisms of coordination of the productive chain. The results had disclosed that the relationships are not harmonious, generating opportunism situations, high costs of transaction and diffidence in the operations between producers and cooperative. Also if it perceived a difficulty of coordination of the productive chain, due to lack of integration between the partners, what it affects the competitiveness and the efficiency of the sector.
