Une méthode d'évaluation fiable pour mesurer les caractéristiques psychoacoustiques de l'acouphène.

Le diagnostic de l’acouphène repose sur le rapport verbal du patient. Cependant, les paramètres psychoacoustiques, tels que la hauteur et la sonie de l’acouphène, sont essentiels pour l’évaluation et pour discriminer les fausses plaintes. Quantifier le percept de l’acouphène reste un objectif de recherche important. Nous avons cherché à: (1) évaluer la précision d'une nouvelle méthode d'évaluation des acouphènes du type « likeness rating » avec une méthode de présentation continue de la hauteur, en considérant la formation musicale, et (2) vérifier si les mesures psychoacoustiques de l’acouphène ont la sensibilité et la spécificité pour détecter les personnes simulant un acouphène. Nous avons recruté des musiciens et des non-musiciens souffrant d'acouphènes et des simulateurs sans acouphènes. La plupart d’entre eux ont été testés une seconde fois quelques semaines plus tard. La hauteur de l’acouphène a d’abord été évaluée en utilisant la méthode « likness rating ». Des sons purs ont été présentés de manière aléatoire de 0.25 kHz à 16 kHz et les participants devaient coter la ressemblance de chaque son par rapport à leur acouphène, et en ajuster son volume de 0 à 100 dB SPL. La hauteur a ensuite été évaluée par une méthode, où les participants devaient apparier la hauteur de leur acouphène en déplaçant leur doigt sur une bande tactile générant des sons purs en continu de 0.5 kHz à 20 kHz par pas de 1 Hz. Les capacités à apparier des sons externes ont été évaluées en utilisant cet appareil. La hauteur prédominante de l’acouphène était similaire entre les deux méthodes pour les musiciens et les non-musiciens, bien que les musiciens montraient de meilleures capacités d’appariement face à des sons externes. Les simulateurs ont coté la sonie bien au-dessus que les autres groupes avec un grand degré de spécificité (94,4%), et ont été inconsistants dans l’appariement de cette sonie (pas de la hauteur) d’une session à une autre. Les données de la seconde session montrent des réponses similaires pour l’appariement de la hauteur pour les deux méthodes ainsi que pour tous nos participants. En conclusion, la hauteur et la sonie correspondent au percept de l’acouphène et doivent en plus être utilisées avec des échelles visuelles analogiques, qui sont plus corrélées avec la gêne et la détresse. Enfin, l’appariement de la sonie est sensible et spécifique à déterminer la présence de l’acouphène.

Measuring moral judgement and the implications of cooperative education and rule-based learning

The Defining Issues Test (DIT), developed by Rest (1986), measures a person's level of moral development using hypothetical social dilemmas. Although the DIT is useful for measuring moral development in social settings, it might not adequately capture an individual's moral judgement abilities in solving work-related problems (Weber, 1990; Trevino, 1992; Welton et al., 1994). In the present study, the moral judgement levels of 97 accounting students were measured over a 1 year period using two separate test instruments, the DIT and a context-specific instrument developed by Welton et al. (1994). The test scores are significantly higher on the DIT than the Welton instrument (between the instruments and over time), suggesting that accounting students use higher levels of moral reasoning in resolving hypothetical social dilemmas and lower levels of moral reasoning in resolving context-specific dilemmas. The difference in test scores was highest during cooperative education (work placement programme), implying that the environment is a significant determinant on students' test scores.

Lidar observation campaign of sugar cane fires and industrial emissions in the State of São Paulo, Brazil

Brazil has an important role in the biomass burning, with the detection of approximately 100,000 burning spots in a single year (2007). Most of these spots occur in the southern part of the Amazon basin during the dry season (from August to november) and these emissions reach the southeast of the country, a highly populated region and with serious urban air pollution problems. With the growing demand on biofuels, sugarcane is considerably expanding in the state of São Paulo, being a strong contributor to the bad air quality in this region. In the state of São Paulo, the main land use are pasture and sugarcane crop, that covers around 50% and 10% of the total area, respectively. Despite the aerosol from sugarcane burning having reduced atmospheric residence time, from a few days to some weeks, they might get together with those aerosol which spread over long distances (hundreds to thousands of kilometers). In the period of June through February 2010 a LIDAR observation campaign was carried in the state of São Paulo, Brazil, in order to observe and characterize optically the aerosols from two distinct sources, namely, sugar cane biomass burning and industrial emissions. For this purpose 2 LIDAR systems were available, one mobile and the other placed in a laboratory, both working in the visible (532 nm) and additionally the mobile system had a Raman channel available (607 nm). Also this campaign counted with a SODAR, a meteorological RADAR specially set up to detect aerosol echoes and gas-particle analyzers. To guarantee a good regional coverage 4 distinct sites were available to deploy the instruments, 2 in the near field of biomass burning activities (Rio Claro and Bauru), one for industrial emissions (Cubatão) and others from urban sources (São Paulo). The whole campaign provide the equivalent of 30 days of measurements which allowed us to get aerosol optical properties such as backscattering/extinction coefficients, scatter and LIDAR ratios, those were used to correlate with air quality and meteorological indicators and quantities. In this paper we should focus on the preliminary results of the Raman LIDAR system and its derived aerosol optical quantities. © 2010 Copyright SPIE - The International Society for Optical Engineering.

Evaluation of the Interaction Between Sodium Hypochlorite and Several Formulations Containing Chlorhexidine and its Effect on the Radicular Dentin-SEM and Push-Out Bond Strength Analysis

The aim of the current study was to evaluate the presence of debris and smear layer after endodontic irrigation with different formulations of 2% chlorhexidine gluconate (CHX) and its effects on the push-out bond strength of an epoxy-based sealer on the radicular dentin. One hundred extracted human canines were prepared to F5 instrument and irrigated with 2.5% sodium hypochlorite and 17% ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid. Fifty teeth were divided into five groups (n=10), according to the final irrigation protocol with different 2% CHX formulations: G1 (control, no final rinse irrigation), G2 (CHX solution), G3 (CHX gel), G4 (Concepsis), and G5 (CHX Plus). In sequence, the specimens were submitted to scanning electron microscopy (SEM) analysis, in the cervical-medium and medium-apical segments, to evaluate the presence of debris and smear layer. The other 50 teeth were treated equally to a SEM study, but with the root canals filled with an epoxy-based endodontic sealer and submitted to a push-out bond strength test, in the cervical, middle, and apical thirds. G2, G3, G4, and G5 provided higher precipitation of the debris and smear layer than G1 (P<0.05), but these groups were similar to each other (P>0.05), in both segments. The values obtained in the push out test did not differ between groups, independent of the radicular third (P>0.05). The CHXs formulations caused precipitation of the debris and smear layer on the radicular dentin, but these residues did not interfere in the push-out bond strength of the epoxy-based sealer.
