Este trabalho teve como objetivo a aplicação do fluxo contínuo na produção de estacas pré-moldadas de concreto para fundação, com base no Sistema de Produção Enxuta. Princípios que regem a Produção Enxuta, eliminação de desperdícios e o mapeamento do fluxo de valor em uma situação real foram utilizados para a obtenção de resultados dessa aplicação, evidenciando uma transformação enxuta, com expressivas reduções dos desperdícios gerados no processo puxado de produção das estacas. O período da pesquisa foi de 8 meses em uma empresa de caráter privado, onde por meio da utilização de ferramentas desse sistema e a metodologia da pesquisa-ação, foi possível identificar o processo crítico – serralheria – para onde se concentraram as ações de melhoria, com a mudança de leiaute, redução de desperdícios e criação de uma célula de produção, favorecendo a aplicação do fluxo contínuo nesta cadeia produtiva. No desenvolvimento da pesquisa, foram realizados treinamentos in loco com os futuros operadores da célula da serralheria, os quais participavam ativamente na promoção de melhorias. O resultado da implementação do fluxo contínuo é o seqüenciamento da produção por meio de leiaute celular e supermercados sincronizando à cadeia produtiva. A determinação do takt time de 14 minutos, o dimensionamento do pichi e o novo leiaute para a célula, permitiram reduções de 80% de movimentação no chão de fábrica, 15% de ganhos totais de área, diminuição de 66,5% de deslocamentos na serralheria. Essas mudanças beneficiaram as outras duas etapas do processo (ferragem e concretagem), também na redução de desperdícios com movimentações e, diante do contexto das melhorias, foi possível identificar os ganhos quanto aos custos operacionais. Como conseqüência, obteve-se um fluxo de informação claro através dos supermercados dentro da célula de produção, o estabelecimento de um fluxo de material e pessoas sem interrupções, favorecendo a implementação do fluxo contínuo. Contudo, criar o fluxo contínuo na produção de estacas pré-moldadas de concreto, em uma empresa privada, depende de fatores organizacionais quanto ao estilo gerencial, comprometimento e delegações de poderes, uma vez que a interrupção imediata do processo produtivo na ocorrência de problemas, somente tornou-se possível mediante intervenção da gerência geral, o que dificultou o prosseguimento das melhorias na linha de produção quanto aos demais processos.

Introduction: Preterm Labor (PTL) and Preterm Premature Rupture of Membranes (PPROM) cause severe complications for both mother and fetus. Among the risk factors associated with preterm labor and PPROM, genetic predisposition has been gaining importance. However, the association between polymorphic genes and the pathogenesis of PTL and PPROM remains elusive. A better understanding of the genetic mechanisms underlying these adverse pregnancy outcomes may enable the identification of high risk patients and allow new approaches to minimize the deleterious effects of prematurity. Aim: To determine the association between maternal IL-6 polymorphism gene and the occurrence of PTL and PPROM. Patients and Methods: The study included 109 patients with prior history of PL and/or PPROM that delivered prematurely at the Obstetrical Unit Care of Botucatu Medical School, UNESP between 2003 and 2012. The control group consisted of 68 patients that delivered at term, matched to the case group by age, ethnicity, and sex of the newborn. Oral swabs (Cath-AllTM – Epicentre Biotechnologies) were collected for analysis of genetic polymorphisms by PCR. Statistical tests were performed to compare genotype, clinical and socio-demographic data from the groups. A p-value of <0.05 was considered significant. Results: The sociodemographic characteristics in both groups were homogeneously distributed. The frequency of the polymorphic allele C, associated with less production of IL-6, and therefore thought to be protective against PTL and PPROM, was 32,5% in the study group and 30,9% in the control group, without statistically significant differences. Conclusion: Considering the sample size included in this study, the frequency of the mutated allele is similar in pregnant women who delivered at term and gestational complications as PTL and PPROM

The aim of this study was to know the behavior of Santa Inês ewes in different physiological stages during the pre-slaughter management, as well as their body weight loss, blood hematocrit values and meat quality. 21 discard ewes were used, arranged into the following treatments: T1 = ewes which remained in lactation for 60 days with their respective lambs and slaughtered one day after weaning; T2 = ewes which remained in lactation for 60 days with their respective lambs and one more period of approximately 30 days without the lambs and afterwards slaughtered; and T3 = ewes which remained in confinement for 60 days and did not give birth during the year. The weight of ewes after transportation was lower for T1 in comparison with T2. Blood hematocrit values of ewes before and after transportation and after fast in the waiting pen were not different among the treatments, with mean value of 58.50%. We concluded that the quality of meat of discard ewes in different physiological stages is not altered by pre-slaughter management, when correctly performed (avoiding animal stress), concerning meat pH.

Model Study: An experimental study Introduction: Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) refers to a syndromic diagnosis which leads to a progressive and irreversible loss of renal function. A hemodialysis patient may have limitations in functional capacity, pulmonary function and respiratory musclular strength impacting in quality of life. Objective: To evaluate the effects of an exercise program on pulmonary function, functional capacity, quality of life and pain in patients undergoing hemodialysis. Methodology: The study included 28 patients of both genders, women and men aged between 40 and 60 years undergoing dialysis at the Kidney Institute, Santa Casa de Misericordia in Presidente Prudente-SP. Primary outcomes included respiratory muscular strength measurements assessed by manovacuometry. The functional capacity was evaluated by a six minute walking test. A life quality questionnaire was applied to evaluate quality of life (SF36-KDQOL). Lung function was evaluated by spirometry. Pain was assessed by a visual analogue scale. The exercise program consisted of training 3 times a week for 40 minutes on hemodialysis during eight weeks. At the end of the program all patients were reassessed. Results: There was no significant difference in the values of FVC and FEV1 before and after the exercise program as well as the index Tiffenau. The value of post MIP was significantly higher than the value obtained in the pre program. For variable MEP no significant difference was found. Functional capacity evaluations showed that there were no significant differences (p> 0.05). The evaluation of quality of life, about the domains of specific areas of CKD showed statistical significance when comparing the list of symptoms and problems with overloading of renal disease and professional role. Indicators related to pain were significantly reduced after the program (P <0.05). Discussion: A chronic kidney patient faces complex situations of physical, social and financial aspects. Although no statistically significant results were found in all variables, the study corroborates to others found in the literature, which suggests that an exercise program can be positive for this population. Conclusion: Although lung capacity and functional capacity did not submit changes to the end of the study, reduced levels of pain, fatigue and dyspnea suggest improvement in functional performance after exercise programs.
