Trabalho e modernização portuária: um estudo sobre os estivadores de Belém no estado do Pará

Buscou-se, com a presente dissertação tratar dos desafios que se colocam para os estivadores de Belém/PA frente à reestruturação produtiva. Realiza-se, portanto uma primeira aproximação quanto à modalidade de organização de trabalho, relacionando aspectos e ações que afetaram as relações de trabalho, enfatizando os reflexos desse processo na organização produtiva e social desse trabalhador, sendo que esse processo exige uma maior qualificação provocando, por um lado, uma polivalência, e por outro, uma maior exploração da força de trabalho o que condiz ao desemprego dos portuários e aumento das disparidades sociais. Neste sentido, a área porto torna-se um espaço de lutas sociais por politicas de saúde, segurança e assistência, que possibilite melhores condições de trabalho. Este estudo encontra-se estruturado em 05 (cinco) partes, 1) é a introdução, na qual se busca mostrar o interesse da pesquisa, a justificativa para o estudo do objeto, no qual trabalha o problema propriamente dito, os objetivos geral e específico e a metodologia utilizada. 2) propõe-se a abordar as formas de organização, controle e divisão do trabalho na sociedade capitalista, tomando como ponto de partida o surgimento do trabalho como categoria fundante da sociabilidade humana no qual o homem mantinha uma relação harmoniosa e simbólica com a natureza até a forma degradante e exploratória que o trabalho se configurou ao longo dos anos, mais profundamente, com o surgimento do modo de produção capitalista. 3) procurou compreender o desenvolvimento dos portos no Brasil, Amazônia e Pará, para compreender a dinâmica do processo de acumulação de capital que contou com o incentivo do capital internacional. 4) Foi dado destaque ao estudo da Lei nº 8.630, de 25 de fevereiro de 1993 (Lei de Modernização dos Portos), principal materialização desta lógica capitalista de modernização e reestruturação que determina o surgimento do Órgão Gestor de Mão-de-Obra (OGMO), como principal administrador da força de trabalho do trabalhador portuário avulso, visando proporcionar “melhorias” e controle da força de trabalho portuária. Objetivando compreender as conseqüências do processo de reestruturação portuária na vida do estivador de Belém no estado do Pará. 5) são apresentadas as considerações finais desta pesquisa, como visto, analisando o caso específico do Porto de Belém, destacando-se aqui a figura do Trabalhador Portuário Avulso – TPA, mais especificamente o estivador, que no mundo capitalista, assume o papel de mero coadjuvante. Mesmo diante das contrariedades que este quadro apresenta, intenciona-se considerá-lo protagonista, principal figura dentro deste processo. Em outras palavras poder-se-ia afirmar que, mesmo após a implantação da Lei de Modernização dos Portos, com seus acordos e convenções ou contrato coletivo de trabalho, que deveriam estabelecer as novas relações de trabalho, o perfil do trabalhador permanece incompatível com o processo, não atendendo, de certa forma, aos desígnios desejados de eficiência e competitividade, tratando-se de um cenário profundamente contraditório e ao mesmo tempo incerto no que diz respeito à força de trabalho do porto.

Supplementation and therapeutic use of vitamin D in patients with multiple sclerosis: Consensus of the Scientific Department of Neuroimmunology of the Brazilian Academy of Neurology

A esclerose múltipla (EM) é uma doença inflamatória, autoimune, desmielinizante e degenerativa do sistema nervoso central. Estudos epidemiológicos têm identificado associações de hipovitaminose D com doenças autoimunes. O principal objetivo desta revisão é responder se há evidências que indiquem o uso terapêutico de vitamina D em monoterapia para pacientes com EM. Por meio dos sites PUBMED, EMBASE, LILACS e Scielo foram realizadas buscas usando os descritores “vitamin D”, e “multiple sclerosis” até 12/09/2013. Estudos clínicos randomizados, controlados e duplo-cegos foram selecionados para avaliar a resposta terapêutica da vitamina D na EM. Não foram encontradas evidências científicas que justifiquem o uso da vitamina D em monoterapia no tratamento da EM, na prática clínica.

Staphylococcus spp. Na cavidade bucal e na bolsa periodontal de indivíduos com periodontite crônica: presença e sensibilidade aos antibióticos

Staphylococcus are not usually studied in the oral cavity, when this happens, they are considered to belong to transitory microflora. Individuals that present periodontal disease represent possibles reservoirs of these opportunist bacteria in the oral cavity. The use of antibiotics whether for treatment of periodontal disease or due to hospital infections, may predispose the increase of the Staphylococcus spp. in the oral cavity because they easily become resistant to antibiotics, resulting in superinfection. The study was made with 88 patients, minimum age- 25 years old, presenting chronical periodontitis, with, at least, two sites having a probing pocket bigger or equal to 5mm. After anamnese and clinical periodontal examination samples were taken from the periodontal pocket using paper cones and from the oral cavity using mouth rinse. Of the total patients 37,50% presented Staphylococcus spp. in the periodontal pocket and 61,36% in lhe oral cavity; 27,27% presented bacteria in the two sites, not necessarily of the same specie. S. epidermidis was the most prevailing specie in periodontal pocket (15,9%) and oral cavity (27,27%). Positive for S. aureus in the periodontal pocket were 4,5% and for the oral cavity 25%, and 3,4% were positive for the two sites. There was not found significative statistical difference referring to the presence of the microorganisms as to age, smoking habit and increase of the probing depth. The majority of the isolated Staphylococcus samples showed resistance to the tested antibiotics, indicating that the drugs as an adjunct to periodontal therapy, must be seen with caution

O uso do Plasma Rico em Plaquetas (PRP) na cirurgia ortopédica

The aim of this work is to study a still little known technique in the Brazilian Veterinary Medicine, that is the use of the Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP), specifically in the small animals orthopedics, including the concept of PRP, why its use in orthopedics, its production method and application, its indications, vantages and disadvantages, and also evaluate the results achieved through the use of PRP both in Human Medicine as in Veterinary Medicine. Moreover, it aims to establish the feasibility of this technique for its use in veterinary orthopedic surgery, especially as an adjunct in fracture repair

Produção de cerveja, utilizando méis de diferentes origens botânicas como adjuntos

This study aimed to produce beer, using different botanical origins of honeys (orange, eucalyptus and wild), as malt adjuncts, and their Physical-chemical and sensorial characterizations. The production was made with malt, water, hops and honey. All musts were adjusted to 12 Brix, and the concentration of honey in the formulation was 45% (based on the extract), except for the control (0%). The physical and chemical analysis were performed on malt (extract content), honey (pH, free acidity, lactonic acidity, total acidity, color, turbidity, extract content, moisture content, reducing sugar, total reducing sugar and sucrose) in wort (content extract, pH, color, turbidity, fermentability ,bitterness and total acidity) and beer apparent extract, apparent fermentability, real extract, real fermentability, alcohol content, pH, total acidity, total foam, foam density , bitterness, carbon dioxide, color and turbidity). Sensory analysis was performed by nine-points hedonic scale testing. The attributes evaluated were appearance, aroma, flavor and overall. The results were submitted to ANOVA and means compared by Tukey testing at a 5% of probability. Beer with honey as adjuncts’ had high fermentability and low content of fat, compared to the pure malt beer. The addition of honey as an adjunct did not affect the majority of the physical-chemical parameters, except for turbidity, whereas beer with honey showed the highest value for this feature, in addition, it has also presented their biterness differences the values for beer with honey were lower. The different types of honeys did not affect the acceptability of beer, however, the beer with honey showed greater acceptance between beer with malt and honey

O caso comitativo

Comitative is a semantic case not much studied. Traditional grammar includes it sometimes as Indirect Object, sometimes as Adverbial Adjunct of Company. In this paper, we show that it is a nuclear element, therefore it is a Complement not an Adjunct; in other words, being a deep semantic case, it constitutes an Argument selected by the verb in the sentence organization.

In vitro performance of a pen-type laser fluorescence device and bitewing radiographs for approximal caries detection in permanent and primary teeth

To evaluate the performance of a pen‑type laser fluorescence device (DIAGNOdent 2190; LFpen, KaVo, Germany) and bitewing radiographs (BW) for approximal caries detection in permanent and primary teeth. Materials and Methods: A total of 246 anterior approximal surfaces (102 permanent and 144 primary) were selected. Contact points were simulated using sound teeth. Two examiners assessed all approximal surfaces using LFpen and BW. The teeth were histologically assessed for the reference standard. Optimal cut‑off limits were calculated for LFpen for primary and permanent teeth. Sensitivity, specificity, accuracy and area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (Az) were calculated for D1 (enamel and dentin lesions) and D3 (dentin lesions) thresholds. The reproducibility was assessed by intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) and Cohen's weighted kappa values. Results: For permanent teeth, the LFpen cut‑off were 0– 27 (sound), 28– 33 (enamel caries) and >33 (dentin caries). For primary teeth, the LFpen cut‑off were 0– 7 (sound), 8– 32 (enamelcaries) and >32 (dentin caries). The LFpen presented higher sensitivity values than BW for primary teeth (0.58 vs. 0.32 at D1 and 0.80 vs. 0.47 at D3) and permanent teeth (0.80 vs. 0.57 at D1 and 0.94 vs. 0.51 at D3). Specificity did not show a significant difference between the methods. Rank correlations with histology were 0.59 and 0.83 (LFpen) and 0.36 and 0.70 (BW) for primary and permanent teeth, respectively, considering all lesions. ICC values for LFpen were 0.71 (inter) and 0.86 (intra) for permanent teeth and 0.94 (inter) and 0.90/0.99 for primary teeth. Kappa values for BW were 0.69 (inter) and 0.68/0.90 (intra) for permanent teeth and 0.64 (inter) and 0.89/0.89 for primary teeth. Conclusion: LFpen presented better reproducibility for primary and permanent teeth and higher accuracy in detecting caries lesions at D1 threshold than BW for permanent teeth. LFpen should be used as an adjunct method for approximal caries detection.

Effects of Er, Cr:YSGG laser irradiation on external adaptation of restorations in caries-affected cavities

This study evaluated the effect of Er,Cr:YSGG laser irradiation on the external adaptation of composite resin restorations in caries-affected cavities. Mixed class V cavity preparations were performed in 36 intact human third molars, in half of which caries was artificially induced. Both healthy and carious dentin were etched with 35% phosphoric acid (Ultradent Products Inc., South Jordan, Utah, USA), and the teeth were divided into three groups, i.e., (a) untreated etched dentin, (b) application of the Er, Cr:YSGG laser and (c) use of chlorhexidine as an adjunct in the bonding process. Restorations were fabricated with Z350 XT FiltekTM composite resin (3M ESPE) and subsequently the specimens were subjected to thermocycling to simulate artificial ageing. Quantitative analysis of external adaptation was performed by scanning electron microscopy in both healthy and affected dentin using epoxy resin replicas. It was concluded that the application of laser and chlorhexidine did not affect the percentages of marginal adaptation of class V restorations. Furthermore, thermocycling may influence adaptation values.
