Infecção bacteriana da cavidade amniótica em gestantes com trabalho de parto prematuro

O trabalho de parto prematuro (TPP) é uma intercorrência obstétrica com etiologia multifatorial, que tem como principal complicação a prematuridade. A infecção da cavidade amniótica (CA) é um fator associado ao TPP e, nos últimos anos, trabalhos têm demonstrado a presença de diferentes espécies bacterianas no líquido amniótico (LA) de pacientes em TPP. O objetivo desse estudo foi identificar as espécies bacterianas presentes no líquido amniótico de gestantes em trabalho de parto prematuro. Foram incluídas, no grupo de estudo, 20 gestantes em TPP e como grupo controle, 20 gestantes, fora de trabalho de parto prematuro, com indicação para amniocentese transabdominal para avaliação da maturidade fetal. As pacientes foram atendidas no Serviço de Obstetrícia do Hospital das Clínicas da Faculdade de Medicina de Botucatu, no período de junho de 2005 a outubro de 2007. Para avaliação da presença de infecção na CA, foi realizada a reação em cadeia da polimerase (PCR) em amostras de líquido amniótico para detecção de Mycoplasma hominis, de Ureaplasma urealyticum e da seqüência conservada inter-espécie do gene RNAr 16S. Os produtos da reação de PCR para o gene RNAr 16S foram clonados para realização do seqüenciamento com a finalidade de identificar as espécies bacterianas da CA das gestantes incluídas no estudo. A incidência de TPP no período do estudo foi de 5,8%. No grupo TPP, a pesquisa de invasão microbiana da CA foi positiva para M. hominis (35,0%), U. urealyticum (15,0%) e gene RNAr 16S (30,0%), sendo todas as frequências superiores às encontradas no grupo controle (p<0,05). A pesquisa de microrganismos no LA através da pesquisa do gene bacteriano RNAr 16S revelou positividade de seis amostras de LA pertencente...(Resumo completo, clicar acesso eletrônico abaixo)

Estudo citogenético em neoplasias e lesões proliferativas ósseas

A busca pela identificação de fatores que possam apontar o diagnóstico, a resposta terapêutica e sobrevida dos pacientes portadores de neoplasias ósseas tem sido incessante. Poderá ser de grande valia na escolha da proposta terapêutica presumir a agressividade tumoral, capacidade de invasão tecidual, propensão ao desenvolvimento de metástases e resposta ao tratamento. As neoplasias ósseas constituem um grupo heterogêneo de tumores, considerando-se os sítios anatômicos e a etiologia. Existe uma grande dificuldade para se estabelecer o prognóstico nestas patologias. Estudos citogenéticos possibilitam um melhor conhecimento antecipado dessas doenças. Embora fatores ambientais e dietéticos contribuam para a etiologia do câncer, as neoplasias se originam de um processo de múltiplos passos envolvendo alterações de genes e seleção clonal da progênie variante. Estas mutações ocorrem em classes de genes reguladores da proliferação celular como os oncogenes, genes supressores de tumor, fatores de crescimento, vias de sinalização e genes de reparo de DNA. Este projeto tem por objetivo detectar e descrever alterações cromossômicas consistentes e recorrentes através da utilização da citogenética clássica e o seu envolvimento no prognóstico em neoplasias ósseas, de pacientes do Hospital das Clínicas da Faculdade de Medicina de Botucatu, UNESP. Os conhecimentos sobre a biologia molecular melhoram o entendimento sobre os múltiplos aspectos da carcinogênese. Entretanto, embora, as perspectivas permaneçam, não houve até agora benefícios significativos em termos de prevenção, diagnóstico tratamento e seguimento dos pacientes com lesões ósseas. Este projeto visa estudos na tentativa de contribuir para um melhor entendimento e, por conseqüência, gerar dados para posteriores empregos em terapias mais eficazes para melhorar as taxas de sobrevida e beneficiar maior número de pacientes com neoplasias ósseas

Ideologia industrial x cultura rural: o método SESI de ensino em uma escola rural

This study compares two educational practices: the Rural School method (Escola do Campo) and the SESI teaching method, suggesting that the latter one is inefficient when applied to rural schools, as illustrated with a case study of a rural school that was obliged to adopt this method in 2012. The epistemological basis of a dialogical pedagogy for rural education has been used in order to criticize the practices of a method whose origins in the industrial ideology and in consumerism promotes a true cultural invasion, according to Paulo Freire, hindering the students' dialogues with respect to the ways of life in rural areas and in towns – an interaction that assured school performance in the previous educational system, which has been arbitrarily discontinued by the political power. Different surveys were used in this study for both compared cases, specially dissertations that have evaluated the Rural School project (Projeto Escola do Campo), adopted in Araraquara in 2004, a dissertation about the SESI teaching method that has discussed its new didactic material and, also, an evaluation of the contents of a representative sample of textbooks of History, Geography, Sciences and Mathematics for the 6th grade of elementary school. It is a theoretical text, not an essay, considering that it is based on concrete situations, which were explained using researches on the implicit themes and summarizes the analytical procedures that have allowed to unveil, in the textbooks prepared by SESI, the stimulus and the valorization of consumerism, without any criticism and environment concerns.

Tendência de crescimento facial em ortodontia e ortopedia funcional dos maxilares

The knowledge of the facial growth trend is very important in orthodontic treatment. A lateral headfilm is recommended in all young patients undergoing a preorthodontic guidance program to anticipate the best time to begin any mechanical procedures and the possibilities to determine the type of facial growth trend. In type A it will be observed that the middle and lower face are growing forward and downward in unison, with no change in ANB angle. Type B growth trends reveals that growth is downward and forward, with the middle face growing forward more rapidly than the lower and in type C the lower face is growing downward and forward more rapidly than the middle face revealing a decrease in the size of the ANB angle.

Retratos da Espanha em Os fantasmas de Goya

1792, Madri. After years of inactivity, the Spanish Inquisition is born again with the mission of containing the laic winds that blow from the revolutionary France. Inês Bilbatúa, a rich merchant’s daugther, is victim of the inquisitorial machinery which tortures and violates her, through one of their abetters, the Dominican monk Lorenzo. Before being arrested, the young lady had served as model for the painter Francisco of Goya, who had also portrayed the monk Lorenzo. The Aragonese painter’s figure serves as narrative conductor of a history that narrates the young Inês’ via crucis and, at the same time, it recreates the historical scenery of the Napoleonic invasion (1808), through a basic element, the painting. Our work intends to analyze the relationships among movie, painting and history present in “Goya’s ghosts” (2006), of the Czech director Milos Forman (1932) - whose script was adapted to a homonymous book in 2007 -, a movie that is based on the artistic production of Francisco of Goya y Lucientes (1746 -1828), official painter of Carlos’ IV (1788 -1808) court and the most lucid columnist of his time, that knew how to capture in his works the religious fanaticism, the populist fervour, the governor’s hypocrisy and the horror and the violence of the war.

O reino Visigodo: catolicismo e permanências pagãs

What became accustomed to call “paganism” is undoubtedly one of the most significant forms of what is designated as “popular religiosity”. This expression, which seems useful when a generalization is required, shows all its weakness when a more precise and objective observation of a particular religion is attempted. Would the official visigothic kingdom’s “conversion” to Catholicism, with Recardo (586-601) at the Council of Toledo of 589 have effectively matched to the “conversion” of this kingdom’s population? Firstly, it is necessary to consider, in beyond the exalting intentions of the sources of that moment, that mass conversions do not imply a radical change in the convictions and religious practices of an entire people. Secondly, that “conversion” and “Christianization” are not synonymous. “Religiosity”, which includes the “conversion”, implies a fundamental religious attitude, which can simply be interior and personal. On the other hand, “religion”, in which “Christianization” is included, would correspond to a public aspect, institutionalized, which elaborates a set of techniques aiming, as in the case of “religiosity”, the guarantee of the supernatural Thus, elevated to the position of “official religion,” Catholic Christianity would live with a series of rites, rituals, devotions, from the previous “religiosity” that, through its ecclesiastical perspective, would be reprehensible, considered marginal and something that would lead to error. However, on the eve of the Muslim invasion in 711, not only among the laity but even in ecclesiastical segments, the manifestations of the “paganism” still were aim of coactive condemnation in the Catholic kingdom of Toledo’s councils.

Jogo de handebol e futsal na escola: possibilidades e limites pedagógicos

Sports team, specifically soccer and handball, has traditionally composing the physical education school contents as a curriculum component. There are several criticisms to extend this approach beyond the sportive discourse. While we recognize this need for expansion, we believe that the methodological endeavors to teach these sports content are still very poor, requiring, therefore, studies that guide us in changing not only contents but also the way of teaching it, which implies new e teaching, pupils and teaching relationship perspective. In this sense, the objective of this study was to identify and analyze, from a sports team tactics teaching approaches of invasion, the demonstrations by students, the phases of handball and soccer games, as well as the elements/dynamic structural, functional and operational in the same school environment. Given this objective, qualitative research, specifically, collaborative action research, best meets investigation is this scenario, since classroom teacher and students also participated in the content construction and strategies undertaken during the intervention. The study enrolled 28 students in the fifth grade, aging 10 to 11 years, in a Bauru/SP public school, physical education teacher and the researcher. Were planned and taught together, 14 classes over a semester with the handball and futsal content, guided for teaching tactics approaches. The data collections were made through systematic lessons observation (through filming and recording diary), interviews with students and descriptive reports made by the classroom teacher and researcher. The results indicate that there was an improvement in the phases of soccer and handball game, even though only the latter has changed its category phase to decentralized anarchic phase. Several students showed in the situational interviews, a more elaborate game understanding than the one identified in the game demonstration. In the analysis of relationship levels..
