A sífilis na gestação e sua influência na morbimortalidade materno-infantil

Syphilis in pregnancy is a public health problem, responsible for the high intrauterine mortality rates. This article aims to present a review of historical and epidemiological aspects, clinical manifestations, diagnosis, the treatment of maternal and congenital syphilis, and its perinatal repercussions. The manuscript also describes the Brazilian main policies in public health care for pregnant women with syphilis and for congenital syphilis eradication. The set of words used were “congenital syphilis”, “syphilis in pregnancy” and “syphilis prenatal care”. The databases searched were PubMed (National Library of Medicine - USA), SciELO (Scientific Electronic Library Online), LILACS (Latin American and Caribbean Health Sciences), PAHO (Pan American Health Organization), IBECS, and WHOLIS Cochrane Library, from 1980 to 2011. Fifty-six articles were included in this review, 18 institutional technical manuals, two textbooks and 36 articles relating to maternal and congenital syphilis. The present review showed that there is a gap between intention and action needed to control and eradicate the disease especially with regard to the expansion of access, not only in relation to the number of visits recommended male gender, it is important to assess the quality of their content as well as the actions to be carried out between appointments.

Considerações históricas sobre o infinito e alguns de seus paradoxos

This research aims to elucidate some of the historical aspects of the idea of infinity during the creation of calculus and set theory. It also seeks to raise discussions about the nature of infinity: current infinite and potential infinite. For this, we conducted a survey with a qualitative approach in the form of exploratory study. This study was based on books of Mathematics' History and other scientific works such as articles, theses and dissertations on the subject. This work will bring the view of some philosophers and thinkers about the infinite, such as: Pythagoras, Plato, Aristotle, Galilei, Augustine, Cantor. The research will be presented according to chronological order. The objective of the research is to understand the infinite from ancient Greece with the paradoxes of Zeno, during the time which the conflict between the conceptions atomistic and continuity were dominant, and in this context that Zeno launches its paradoxes which contradict much a concept as another, until the theory Cantor set, bringing some paradoxes related to this theory, namely paradox of Russell and Hilbert's paradox. The study also presents these paradoxes mentioned under the mathematical point of view and the light of calculus and set theory

Construção Enxuta e a utilização dos seus conceitos por construtoras paulistas certificadas segundo o PBQP-H e o QUALIHAB

The civil construction sector has been stimulated to industrialize itself by the adoption of Lean Construction practices in its constructive process. Given this fact, this research verify and identify Lean Tools and the level of application of these Tools in construction companies in the State of São Paulo, in order to be able to notice which Lean Concepts generate the highest benefits to these companies. The research method used was a survey applied only between construction companies that have some type of quality certificate. From the results, a data analysis was made in order to note the constructor's situation in relation to Lean Construction and, based on this analysis, verify the impact of the Lean Principles on the competitiveness of these companies and on the business performance. This way, it was possible to note a high level of application the Lean Tools by the responding companies. It also became clear, by means of this work: the strong influence of the concepts of Flow, of Continuous Improvement and of methods of prevention and resolutions of problems on the overall companies performance

Produção enxuta aplicada à construtoras de pequeno e médio porte

Against the current need of improvements in construction processes and increased competitiveness on Construction Industry in Brazil, lean construction concepts have spread all over the market, achieving small and medium enterprises. In reason of this, the monograph it is a research based on interviews of small and medium construction enterprises from Vale do Paraíba, São Paulo, Brazil, that focus in identify practices of lean construction implementation and barriers to incorporate these concepts on them. Besides the research, it will be done an analysis and some suggestions to overcome the obstacles appeared

O debate francês acerca da instrução pública e seus desdobramentos no Brasil

Este artigo tem por objetivo analisar aspectos históricos das questões políticas, ideológicas e conceituais que estiveram presentes nas discussões referentes à instrução nacional francesa no final do século XVIII, enfatizando as proposições de Condorcet, no Rapport de 1792, como sendo base desse tipo de debate durante o processo revolucionário na França. Privilegiamos, portanto, analisar as prerrogativas discursivas dessa proposta e o certame suscitado a partir dela, pois resultaram, até mesmo, em novas proposições, entre elas as de Romme, Robespierre, Lepelletier e Lakanal. Trata-se de uma abordagem que nos proporciona a compreensão da base moderna do debate sobre instrução pública que se configurou no século XIX. Essa concorrência de ideias entre os franceses se estabeleceu como o grande legado teórico para os sistemas modernos de ensino, inclusive o brasileiro. Depreendemos, ainda, que a instrução defendida na França estava permeada pelos ideais de razão, moral e cientificismo.

O edifício da FAUUSP e os materiais do brutalismo

O trabalho analisa a história da produção do edifício da Faculdade de Arquitetura e Urbanismo da Universidade de São Paulo, projetado por João Batista Vilanova Artigas (1915-1985) em 1961 e concluído em 1969. Mais especificamente, o artigo se volta aos materiais do edifício, oferecendo insumos para uma discussão sobre o papel do chamado “brutalismo paulista” na década de 1960. O edifício da FAUUSP, como se sabe, é um marco na arquitetura moderna brasileira. Seu caráter paradigmático consiste na síntese das posições programáticas de Artigas, tanto em relação ao ensino de arquitetura como em relação à poética moderna, que ultrapassa o limite autoral e constitui uma escola. São características dessa escola – por vezes chamada de “paulista”, “brutalista” ou “artiguista” – alguns princípios como a continuidade espacial, o elogio das formas estruturais, a verdade dos materiais e o desenvolvimento das forças produtivas através da superação tecnológica. Esses princípios respondiam a algumas das questões mais urgentes da arquitetura moderna brasileira naquele período, deslocando a nova monumentalidade para uma dimensão construtiva. A nova poética, claramente exposta no projeto da FAUUSP, coincide com o surgimento de uma estética que atribuiu um novo valor político e crítico à produção. Passam a ser frequentes, por exemplo, interpretações do concreto armado brasileiro como síntese do subdesenvolvimento, por suas marcas de feitura artesanal e seus recordes tecnológicos. O objetivo deste artigo é contribuir com esse debate caracterizando em detalhe a produção do edifício em seus materiais: o concreto armado, a esquadria, os materiais de acabamento e os componentes industriais. O exame de aspectos históricos da produção do edifício, recolhidos em documentos originais e depoimentos, permite verificarmos de que modo a poética arquitetônica participa das decisões da obra e qual o seu impacto na economia do edifício e em sua forma de produção. Aprendemos, por exemplo, que o concreto armado apresenta manifestações visuais distintas e independentes de seu modo de produção (que foram pelo menos três: moldado in loco, protendido, e com agregados leves, sem função estrutural); que a empena da fachada exigiu uma fundação própria para seu cimbramento; que a modulação dos caixilhos não correspondia à modulação da estrutura; que a resina epóxi foi usada de modo pioneiro e experimental; que as fôrmas foram produzidas por um hábil carpinteiro português, mas as relações de trabalho eram precárias; que a contratação do projeto básico previa o detalhamento durante a obra pelo Escritório Técnico do Fundo para a Construção da Cidade Universitária. Essa noção ampla de material, entendida como a matéria mais o trabalho social que a define historicamente, nos permite tratar, simultaneamente, de aspectos técnicos, econômicos e artísticos da obra e assim compreender com maior exatidão dos termos do debate acerca da produção na arquitetura “brutalista” e seu papel político.
