The lateral movement presents a combination of lateral condylar and protrusive displacement on the non-working side. The objective os this study was to check the differences in the adjustment of the semiadjustable articulator starting from two different initial positions, centric relation an intercuspal position using positional records of rotusion and lateral movements in acrylic resin for the adjustment of condylar guidance as for ennett Angle. Twenty pacients dentate and assintomatic were recruited and their adjustment were performed in the semiadjustable articulator checking the differences among the studied groups, not finding statistically significant differences. Concludes that, in semiadjustable articulator adjustment, starting the montage in centric relation or intercuspal position, the results obtained for the condylar guidande and Bennett Angle aren´t statistically diferents, as well there is no difference in condylar guidance adjustment using lateral or protrusive records.

Entre as diversas anomalias dentárias, a giroversão dental constitui uma anomalia de grande prevalência, na qual o dente realiza rotação em torno do seu próprio eixo. No exame radiográfico panorâmico é possível verificar a presença de giroversão, porém, quando a dinâmica de giro do eixo do equipamento não coincide com a curvatura da maxila e mandíbula, a imagem dos dentes apresenta-se girovertida ou com apinhamento dental. O presente trabalho teve por objetivo avaliar se as giroversões dentais presentes nas radiografias panorâmicas são verdadeiras ou apenas “virtuais”. Foram selecionadas 71 radiografias panorâmicas com imagens sugestivas de dentes girovertidos, de pacientes que também possuíam a documentação da cavidade bucal por fotografia e modelo de estudo. A média de idade dos pacientes avaliados foi 15 anos de idade. A imagem radiográfica panorâmica, fotografia e modelo de estudo foram avaliadas por um único examinador. Na avaliação das radiografias panorâmicas foram encontradas 246 dentes girovertidos. Porém, ao avaliar a fotografia e o modelo de estudo destes pacientes comprovou-se apenas 127 dentes com giroversão. Estes resultados indicam uma correspondência clinica/radiográfica de 51,4 %, ou seja, 48,6% das giroversões identificadas radiograficamente, eram “virtuais”. Pode-se concluir que o diagnóstico de giroversão dental utilizando a radiografia panorâmica deve ser confirmado pelo exame clínico para evitar diagnósticos falsos positivos.

Introduction: Due to the high incidence of low back pain without apparent cause, different approaches to evaluate the lumbar instability has been proposed, such as surface electromyography to determine pre-activation and the ability of lumbar stabilization through functional physical assessment. In this context, the objective of this study was to evaluate the early activation of the primary stabilizing muscles in subjects without low back pain, with different physical abilities function (CFF). Method: Study participants were 20 subjects with 19.8 ± 1.4 years, 55.7 ± 8.8 kilos, 1.66 ± 0.08 m, of both sexes. The subjects underwent six Tests Physical Function (TFF) and the Test of Fast Moving Flexion Arm (TMRFB) to capture the electromyographic activity of the lumbar multifidus muscles (LM) and internal oblique - lower fibers (HI). Were assigned weights for each functional test and the result of the physical capacity of the final functional subject ranged from 0 to 100%. In the analysis of TMRB was considered the onset time of activation between the ML and HI. Results: Regarding TFF 2 (10%) subjects were considered to have normal physical capacity, 6 (30%) with good physical ability and 12 (60%) with regular physical capacity or poor. As for TMRFB average values of initiation of muscle activation in 75% of subjects were within the limits to characterize the condition of pre-muscle activation. Conclusion:The results obtained in the TFF were low compared with the CFF of asymptomatic subjects evaluated. This fact does not mean that the condition of stabilization of the subject is appropriate. However, the results obtained in the electromyographic examination to suggest that 25% of asymptomatic subjects tested did not have a proper condition of lumbar stabilization.

Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is probably one of the most prevalent diseases in the world that also compromises the quality of life of the affected significantly. Its incidence in Brazil is 12%, corresponding to 20 million individuals. OBJECTIVE: To update the GERD management and the new trends on diagnosis and treatment, reviewing the international and Brazilian experience on it. METHOD: The literature review was based on papers published on Medline/Pubmed, SciELO, Lilacs, Embase and Cochrane crossing the following headings: gastroesophageal reflux disease, diagnosis, clinical treatment, surgery, fundoplication. RESULTS: Various factors are involved on GERD physiopathology, the most important being the transient lower esophageal sphincter relaxation. Clinical manifestations are heartburn, regurgitation (typical symptoms), cough, chest pain, asthma, hoarseness and throat clearing (atypical symptoms), which may be followed or not by typical symptoms. GERD patients may present complications such as peptic stenosis, hemorrhage, and Barrett's esophagus, which is the most important predisposing factor to adenocarcinoma. The GERD diagnosis must be based on the anamnesis and the symptoms must be evaluated in terms of duration, intensity, frequency, triggering and relief factors, pattern of evolution and impact on the patient's quality of life. The diagnosis requires confirmation with different exams. The goal of the clinical treatment is to relieve the symptoms and surgical treatment is indicated for patients who require continued drug use, with intolerance to prolonged clinical treatment and with GERD complications. CONCLUSION: GERD is a major digestive health problem and affect 12% of Brazilian people. The anamnesis is fundamental for the diagnosis of GERD, with special analysis of the typical and atypical symptoms (duration, intensity, frequency, triggering and relief factors, evolution and impact on the life quality). High digestive endoscopy and esophageal pHmetry are the most sensitive diagnosctic methods. The clinical treatment is useful in controlling the symptoms; however, the great problem is keeping the patients asymptomatic over time. Surgical treatment is indicated for patients who required continued drug use, intolerant to the drugs and with complicated forms of GERD.

Psittaciformes are one of the most endangered groups of birds, and several Brazilian species are classified between vulnerable and critically endangered. It is thus necessary to identify agents that cause infections in captive wild animals and to assess the risks posed thereof and to design interventions to minimize the possibility of disease outbreaks, leading to the conservation of endangered species. The purpose of this study was to identify enteropathogenic Escherichia coli (EPEC) cloacal isolates from asymptomatic psittacines in captivity and evaluate the distribution of the EPEC pathotype. Cloacal swabs were obtained from 46 asymptomatic birds, and resulting isolates were tested by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) for the presence of the attaching and effacing gene (eae) and bundle-forming pilus structural gene (bfpA) of EPEC. Samples from several species were tested, and three samples were found to be positive for the eae and bfpA genes and characterized as typical EPEC. This is the first report of this pathotype in asymptomatic psittacines. Although certain E. coli strains are more pathogenic than others, various factors should be considered when determining the potential of E. coli isolates to cause disease in captive psittacines. Birds that are positive for the EPEC (typical) strain could be zoonotic sources of infection, and may have acquired these strains through contact with humans or domestic animals. These findings may also be valuable for the long-term management of endangered species ex situ as one EPEC sample was isolated from a Red-tailed Amazon (Amazona brasiliensis).

Foodborne diseases represent operational risks in industrial restaurants. We described an outbreak of nine clustered cases of acute illness resembling acute toxoplasmosis in an industrial plant with 2300 employees. These patients and another 36 similar asymptomatic employees were diagnosed with anti-T. gondii IgG titer and avidity by ELISA. We excluded 14 patients based on high IgG avidity and chronic toxoplasmosis: 13 from controls and one from acute disease other than T. gondii infection. We also identified another three asymptomatic employees with T.gondii acute infection and also anti-T. gondii IgM positive as remaining acute cases. Case control study was conducted by interview in 11 acute infections and 20 negative controls. The ingestion of green vegetables, but not meat or water, was observed to be associated with the incidence of acute disease. These data reinforce the importance of sanitation control in industrial restaurants and also demonstrate the need for improvement in quality control regarding vegetables at risk for T. gondii oocyst contamination. We emphasized the accurate diagnosis of indexed cases and the detection of asymptomatic infections to determine the extent of the toxoplasmosis outbreak.

A doença cardiovascular representa a principal causa de mortalidade no mundo. A capacidade de identificar, dentre os indivíduos assintomáticos, o subgrupo que apresenta maior risco de desenvolver eventos cardiovasculares no futuro representa uma etapa fundamental em qualquer estratégia voltada para a diminuição da taxas de eventos cardiovasculares. O primeiro passo na estratificação do risco cardiovascular é a utilização dos "escores de risco global", dentre os quais o mais frequentemente utilizado é o escore de Framingham. Entretanto, estudos prévios demonstraram que embora muito úteis, os escores clínicos, quando utilizados isoladamente, apresentam capacidade limitada de estratificação do risco cardiovascular em uma parcela significativa da população. É nesse contexto que o escore de cálcio (EC) coronariano e a angiotomografia das artérias coronárias podem desempenhar papel importante como ferramentas complementares na estratificação de risco dos pacientes assintomáticos. O EC coronariano proporciona importantes informações prognósticas que são incrementais aos escores clínicos baseados nos fatores de risco tradicionais e a outras modalidades diagnósticas, como a dosagem da proteína C reativa, por exemplo. Além disso, o EC também tem o potencial de alterar a conduta e auxiliar no manejo clínico dos pacientes. Já a angiotomografia coronariana proporciona avaliação detalhada da anatomia das artérias coronárias, permitindo visualizar não apenas o lúmen, mas também as paredes arteriais coronarianas. Comparada à coronariografia invasiva convencional, a angiotomografia apresenta excelente acurácia para identificar e, principalmente, excluir a presença de lesões obstrutivas significativas. Adicionalmente, demonstrou-se capaz de proporcionar informações prognósticas incrementais aos fatores de risco tradicionais e ao EC coronariano.

En este artículo se analiza el ensayo El laberinto de la soledad de Octavio Paz. Se interpreta dicha obra a partir de la crisis de los valores culturales latinoamericanos, agudizada desde dentro por la tradición macondista y, desde fuera, por las presiones de la globalización. La actual crisis de América Latina nos obliga a revisar radicalmente los valores culturales y los conceptos macondistas de la identidad propuestos por el pensamiento latinoamericano del siglo XX. Estos valores falsos no sólo han reflejado las frustraciones de la modernidad en el continente, sino que han contribuido a su fracaso.

Los estudios de asociación genómica (GWAS) llevan consigo un algo costo monetario, y a su vez requieren algoritmos complejos de análisis de información que consumen tiempo y memoria computacional. En este sentido, el objetivo principal de esta tesis es presentar un esquema de genotipado apropiado para poblaciones cruza, junto con un algoritmo eficiente para GWAS de caracteres complejos productivos. Inicialmente, se presenta un esquema de genotipado que maximiza la exactitud de imputación de genotipos en alta densidad (HD) a partir de paneles de baja densidad (LowD), reduciendo el costo de genotipificación. Posteriormete, se propone un algoritmo que facilita identificar regiones genómicas que explican parte de la variabilidad de un carácter, reduciendo la tasa de falsos positivos, el tiempo de cálculo y el requerimiento de memoria RAM. De igual manera, el algoritmo evalúa segmentos candidatos a partir de las posiciones detectadas significativas y calcula la fracción de la varianza aditiva total explicada por cada segmento. Finalmete se presentan estudios de asociación para características de crecimiento y deposición de grasa, empleando el algoritmo propuesto junto con genotipos imputados en HD. La implementación de dicho algoritmo permite identificar regiones significativas relevantes y genes candidatos que explican parte de la variación de los caracteres evaluados. En conclusión, la tesis propone un enfoque estructurado, práctico y eficiente para la realización de GWAS de caracteres complejos aplicado en poblaciones experimentales con fines productivos.

En diversos ensayos sobre literatura y cultura industrial, escritos sostenidamente desde la década del 60 y recogidos en libros que desde fines de los 80 pautan su consagración en el campo literario argentino, Juan José Saer consolida una figura de autor y repone otras categorías valorativas que el auge posmoderno declaraba muertas (obra, estilo, autonomía). A partir de la tensión entre imperativos personales y determinaciones públicas, desde los inicios su ensayística sostiene agonalmente la especificidad literaria, contra los falsos compromisos sociológicos y las limitaciones exteriores a la forma estética, ampliando los embates contra el democratismo de la posmodernidad hacia fines de los 90 e inicios de la década actual. A la vez, algunos ensayos reformulan la tradición literaria argentina a partir de la postulación de su violencia de origen y de lo que Saer llama "una estricta y subjetiva privacidad del uso lingüístico" con la cual producir "figuras universales", operatoria que lee en la gauchesca y que puede tomarse como balance autorreferencial del proyecto. La "privacidad en sentido estricto", esa "intimidad con las palabras" que da aliento a la manera narrativa que Saer ha practicado durante cinco décadas, se afianza en el final del milenio como una distinción, apropiada y necesaria ante el relativismo posmoderno, que permita mantener a la literatura en su sitio, en su forma específica ajena a determinaciones externas, a salvo de los parámetros de mercado y de la opresión política y cultural
