A estética da transitoriedade : Arthur Schnitzler e Sigmund Freud

Esta dissertação tem como objetivo estabelecer relações de natureza comparativa entre textos de áreas afins como Literatura e Psicanálise. Para tanto, parte-se do pressuposto de que a aproximação desses dois campos de conhecimento que têm em comum o texto possibilitam não só as naturais trocas, mas também o reconhecimento de atividades culturais que se complementam.A motivação é a relação textual estabelecida entre os trabalhos de Sigmund Freud e Arthur Schnitzler, intelectuais não só contemporâneos, mas patrícios - ambos austríacos - ligados pela etnia judaica cuja obra, produzida num momento de grande efervescência cultural, apresenta pontos comuns. Enquanto Freud estabelecia os pressupostos de uma nova ciência - a Psicanálise -, Schnitzler produzia sua obra de natureza estética na qual os aspectos de índole psicanalítica eram coincidentes não só quanto à ciência que seria sistematizada por Freud, mas mantinha com ela semelhantes preocupações, em relação à natureza humana, no tocante à transitoriedade. A metodologia do trabalho se baseia nas referências que faz Sigmund Freud, nos textos de divulgação de sua teorias, além de cartas, à obra de cunho estético de Arthur Schnitzler quanto a processos semelhantes de abordagem da prática psicanalítica: o estranho e o duplo, o tabu da virgindade, o ganho secundário e o chiste, assim como das afinidades de natureza estética - elementos analisados de modo a evidenciar o comparativismo no que respeita ao diálogo textual.

Um virtuose do além-mar em terras de Santa Cruz : a obra pianística de Arthur Napoleão (1843-19250

Esta tese trata do significado musical do ponto de vista hermenêutico na obra para piano do pianista-compositor luso-brasileiro Arthur Napoleão (1845-1925). O exame técnicoestético de sua obra pianística adota uma perspectiva relacional entre texto musical e entorno cultural, situando compositor e obra dentro do campo de problematização das várias estéticas que configuraram o Romantismo do século XIX. A elaboração do modelo analítico e as análises empreendidas do corpus musical selecionado compreenderam uma leitura de tipo hermenêutico em que se cruzaram informações contextuais atinentes aos pólos de criação e recepção das obras. Desta forma trataram-se os principais gêneros musicais empregados pelo compositor à luz da recepção de sua carreira de virtuose tanto no Brasil quanto no exterior. O corpus documental é constituído por materiais diversos pesquisados em bibliotecas nacionais e estrangeiras

Extração, caracterização e atividades biológicas de proteínas da espécie cnidoscolus urens (L.) Arthur

The extraction, chemical and structural characterization of a wide variety of compounds derived from plants has been a major source of bioactive molecules. Several proteases have been isolated in the plant kingdom, with numerous pharmacological and biotechnological applications. Among the proteases isolated from plants, are the fibrinogenolytic, with relevant application in the treatment of disorders in the coagulation cascade, in addition to potential use as a tool in clinical laboratories. In this study, in addition to evaluating the effects of the protein extract of Cnidoscolus urens (L.) Arthur (Euphorbiaceae) in the coagulation cascade also investigates the presence of antimicrobial activity and characterizes the proteolytic activity detected in this extract, aiming to determine their potential pharmacological and biotechnological application. In this way, crude protein extracts obtained from the leaves of C. urens in Tris-HCl 0.05M, NaCl 0.15M, pH 7.5, were precipitated in different concentrations of acetone, and assessed for the presence of proteolytic activity in azocaseína and fibrinogen. The most active fraction (F1.0) in these tests was chosen for assessment of biological activity and biochemical characterization. The Aα chain and Bβ of fibrinogen were completely cleaved at a concentration of 0.18 μg/μL of protein fraction in 4 minutes. Fibrinogenolytic activity presented total inhibition in the presence of E-64 and partial in the presence of EDTA. The fraction demonstrated coagulant activity in plasm and reduced the APTT, demonstrating acting on the factors coagulation of the intrinsic pathway and common, not exerting effects on the PT. Fibrinolytic activity on plasma clot was detected only in SDS-PAGE in high concentrations of fraction, and there were no defibrinating. Although several proteases isolated from plants and venomous animals are classically toxic, the fraction F1.0 of C. urens not expressed hemorrhagic nor hemolytic activities. Fraction F1.0 also showed no antimicrobial activity. In proteolytic activity on the azocasein, the optimal pH was 5.0 and optimum temperature of 60ºC. The enzyme activity has been shown to be sensitive to the presence of salts tested, with inhibition for all compounds. The surfactant triton did not influence the enzyme activity, but the tween-20 and SDS inhibited the activity. In the presence of reducing agents increase in enzyme activity occurred, a typical feature of enzymes belonging to the class of cysteine proteases. Several bands with proteolytic activity were detected in zymogram, in the region of high-molecular-weight, which were inhibited by E-64. In this study, we found that C. urens presents in its constitution cysteine proteases with fibrinogenolytic and procoagulant activity, which may be isolated, with potential application in treatment of bleeding disorders, thrombolytic and clinical laboratory

Rationale, study design, and analysis plan of the Alveolar Recruitment for ARDS Trial (ART): Study protocol for a randomized controlled trial

Background: Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is associated with high in-hospital mortality. Alveolar recruitment followed by ventilation at optimal titrated PEEP may reduce ventilator-induced lung injury and improve oxygenation in patients with ARDS, but the effects on mortality and other clinical outcomes remain unknown. This article reports the rationale, study design, and analysis plan of the Alveolar Recruitment for ARDS Trial (ART). Methods/Design: ART is a pragmatic, multicenter, randomized (concealed), controlled trial, which aims to determine if maximum stepwise alveolar recruitment associated with PEEP titration is able to increase 28-day survival in patients with ARDS compared to conventional treatment (ARDSNet strategy). We will enroll adult patients with ARDS of less than 72 h duration. The intervention group will receive an alveolar recruitment maneuver, with stepwise increases of PEEP achieving 45 cmH(2)O and peak pressure of 60 cmH2O, followed by ventilation with optimal PEEP titrated according to the static compliance of the respiratory system. In the control group, mechanical ventilation will follow a conventional protocol (ARDSNet). In both groups, we will use controlled volume mode with low tidal volumes (4 to 6 mL/kg of predicted body weight) and targeting plateau pressure <= 30 cmH2O. The primary outcome is 28-day survival, and the secondary outcomes are: length of ICU stay; length of hospital stay; pneumothorax requiring chest tube during first 7 days; barotrauma during first 7 days; mechanical ventilation-free days from days 1 to 28; ICU, in-hospital, and 6-month survival. ART is an event-guided trial planned to last until 520 events (deaths within 28 days) are observed. These events allow detection of a hazard ratio of 0.75, with 90% power and two-tailed type I error of 5%. All analysis will follow the intention-to-treat principle. Discussion: If the ART strategy with maximum recruitment and PEEP titration improves 28-day survival, this will represent a notable advance to the care of ARDS patients. Conversely, if the ART strategy is similar or inferior to the current evidence-based strategy (ARDSNet), this should also change current practice as many institutions routinely employ recruitment maneuvers and set PEEP levels according to some titration method.

Vom Innen und Außen der Blicke - Aus Arthur Schnitzlers TRAUMNOVELLE wird Stanley Kubricks EYES WIDE SHUT

Die Arbeit verfolgt Genese und Wirkungsgeschichte von Stanley Kubricks letztem Film EYES WIDE SHUT (GB 1999) mit dem Anliegen, durch die intensive Auseinandersetzung mit den narrativen und ästhetischen Gestaltungsfaktoren eines einzelnen Films den kalkulierten Einsatz filmsprachlicher Mittel nachzuvollziehen und den solcherart kreierten (Be-) Deutungsspielraum zu diskutieren. Dabei kommen die hinter Kubricks Inszenierungsentscheidungen erkennbaren Intentionen ebenso zur Sprache wie rezeptive Muster auf seiten des Publikums.Den ersten Untersuchungskomplex bildet die adaptierte Literaturvorlage, Arthur Schnitzlers TRAUMNOVELLE (1926), die sowohl hinsichtlich ihrer inhaltlich-thematischen als auch ihrer sprachlich-erzähltechnischen Gestaltung gewürdigt wird. Kernstück der Arbeit bildet eine detaillierte, wirkungsbezogene Analyse der Inszenierungskomponenten einzelner Szenen, die hinsichtlich ihres von Regieentscheidungen geprägten Zusammenspiels betrachtet und häufig mit den jeweiligen literarischen Gestaltungsmerkma-len der Vorlage verglichen werden. Auf diese Weise wird Kubricks kreative Leistung eines Transfers von einer bedeutenden Novelle hin zu einem künstlerisch eigenständigen Film erfaßt. Dabei fällt unter anderem auf, daß die Gedankengänge Fridolins im Film durch ein subtiles Netzwerk von Andeutungen, Auslassungen und inneren Querverweisen ersetzt wurden, welches der individuellen Zuschauerwahrnehmung einen hohen Stellenwert zuweist – der Betrachter rückt gewissermaßen ins Zentrum des Films, soll den Platz des recht blaß bleibenden Protagonisten einnehmen, der nur als Stellvertreter fungiert.
