Perfil sociodemográfico y clínico de los pacientes con lepra atendidos en el Hospital San Salvador de Chiquinquirá, Boyacá, durante el periodo 1951-1999

El objetivo del estudio describir el perfil sociodemográfico y clínico de los casos de enfermedad de Hansen, atendidos en el consultorio dermatológico del Hospital San Salvador, entre 1951 y 1999, para la formulación de recomendaciones en la búsqueda de la eliminación de la lepra como problema de salud pública en el país. Por lo tanto, la investigación corresponde a un estudio descriptivo longitudinal, en el cual se revisaron en total de 302 historias clínicas, que recogían 43 años del programa. Se encontró que el perfil de los enfermos correspondía a hombres jóvenes con edad promedio de 39 años, casados, procedentes en su mayoría de Boyacá, del área rural y dedicados a la agricultura. El promedio de tiempo entre síntomas y diagnóstico fue de 5,4 años. El 98,2 % de los pacientes presentaron síntomas primarios de lepra, en su mayoría neurológicos y dermatológicos. Predominaron las formas multibacilares en los mayores de quince años con un diagnóstico por baciloscopia y en los paucibacilares por clínica. La monoterapia fue el esquema más utilizado, tomado de forma regular. Los hombres presentaron mayor discapacidad en  manos, tanto al inicio como al final del tratamiento, en relación con las mujeres (x2: 14,23 p: 0,0000). El promedio de tiempo entre el diagnóstico y el inicio de tratamiento fue nueve días, mientras el promedio de tiempo total de tratamiento, 12,7 años. En un 40% de los casos no se conoció el desenlace, el 26,8% se reportaron como curados y el 19,5 % falleció. Un campesino joven con lepra lepromatosa tratado con monoterapia en tiempos prolongados y mayor discapacidad en manos es el perfil de los pacientes que concuerda con el comportamiento de la enfermedad en el mundo.

Migração e seletividade na região nordeste: um estudo a partir dos dados do censo demográfico de 2010

The aim of this study is to analyze the effect of migration on the income differential between northeastern migrants and nonmigrants and there by verify that the immigrants make up a group or not positively selected. The assumption that will be tested is that the presence of these immigrants affects income inequality in the region receptor, which may explain part of the high-stopping inequality in the Brazilian Northeast. The study is based on the literature selectivity migration introduced by Roy (1951), Borjas (1987) and Chiswick (1999). Does the estimated wage equation Mincer (1974) through the method of OLS, using information from the microdata sample of the 2010 Census, the Brazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics (IBGE). The results which correspond to the comparison of socioeconomic profile, showed that immigrants are more qualified and, on average, better paid than non-migrants. With the estimation of the model, it was found that, keeping all other variables constant, the income that immigrants earn is 14.43% higher than that of non-migrants. Thus, there was existence of positive selectivity in migration directed to the Northeast

O AGENDAMENTO DE TELEJORNAIS BRASILEIROS EM SITES NOTICIOSOS DE CONTEÚDO COLABORATIVO

The thesis investigates if with the free news production, people who post information on collaborative content sites, known as interacting, tend to reproduce information that was scheduled for Tv news. This study is a comparison of the collaborative content vehicles Vc reporter, Vc no G1 and Eu reporter with TV news SBT Brasil, Jornal Nacional, Jornal da Record and Jornal da Band. We sought to determine whether those newscasts guide the collaborative platforms. The hypothesis assumes that Brazilian TV news have been building over time a credible relationship with the viewer, so it is possible to think that the interacting use the same criteria for selecting the broadcasts and reproduce similar information in collaborative content sites. The method used was content analysis, based on the study of Laurence Bardin and the type of research used was quantitative. This research concluded that, within a small portion of the universe surveyed, there are schedules of television news across the collaborative content.

Proposta de modelo de avaliação do património intangível do concelho de Miranda do Douro

Na legislação atual os bens de domínio público do Património Histórico, Cultural e Ambiental devem ser contabilizados, no entanto, dadas as suas caraterísticas, existem dificuldades na sua avaliação, sobretudo quando se trata de bens que não foram construídos pelo homem, de que são exemplos os bens dominiais, como o espaço aéreo, os rios, o mar – Património Natural – ou os bens sem caraterísticas físicas – Património Cultural. Este trabalho pretende, como principal objetivo, propor uma metodologia de avaliação dos bens intangíveis, nomeadamente, os de cariz cultural e ambiental, porque são fatores que criam valor económico, contribuindo para o rendimento do município e, consequentemente, do país através das receitas de turismo geradas. Para tal, foram identificados os recursos intangíveis do concelho de Miranda do Douro com maior atratividade, recorrendo à aplicação de um inquérito por questionário aos seus visitantes. No sentido de dar resposta ao objetivo do estudo propôs-se uma metodologia de avaliação, tendo por base o valor económico acrescentado, mais conhecido por modelo Economic Value Added (EVA), pois é conhecido como o modelo que melhor avalia a criação de riqueza. Os resultados permitem concluir que são a Natureza e a Cultura os bens intangíveis que mais criam valor para o Município, resultado apurado através da aplicação de um inquérito por questionário aos visitantes de um evento de cariz cultural – A Feira de Gastronomia e Artesanato. Após a sua identificação, foi estimado o valor destes bens intangíveis, pelo método EVA, usando como proxies para o valor do capital investido, as despesas de investimento em cultura e para a rendibilidade do capital investido, as receitas da Hotelaria e da Restauração e das Atividades Recreativas.

Raman spectroscopic study of the mineral qingheiite Na2(Mn2+,Mg,Fe2+)2(Al,Fe3+)(PO4)3, a pegmatite phosphate mineral from Santa Ana pegmatite, Argentina

The pegmatite mineral qingheiite Na2(Mn2+,Mg,Fe2+)2(Al,Fe3+)(PO4)3 has been studied by a combination of SEM and EMP, Raman and infrared spectroscopy. The studied sample was collected from the Santa Ana pegmatite, Argentina. The mineral occurs as a primary mineral in lithium bearing pegmatite, in association with beausite and lithiophilite. The Raman spectrum is characterized by a very sharp intense Raman band at 980 cm�1 assigned to the PO3�4 symmetric stretching mode. Multiple Raman bands are observed in the PO3�4 antisymmetric stretching region, providing evidence for the existence of more than one phosphate unit in the structure of qingheiite and evidence for the reduction in symmetry of the phosphate units. This concept is affirmed by the number of bands in the m4 and m2 bending regions. No intensity was observed in the OH stretching region in the Raman spectrum but significant intensity is found in the infrared spectrum. Infrared bands are observed at 2917, 3195, 3414 and 3498 cm�1 are assigned to water stretching vibrations. It is suggested that some water is coordinating the metal cations in the structure of qingheiite.
