A adesão longitudinal continua a representar um dos maiores desafios da Odontologia moderna. Uma nova proposta para o estabelecimento do equilíbrio da adesão aos tecidos dentários surge, baseada na observação dos resultados obtidos com a tecnologia Grander para revitalização da água. Objetiva-se com o estudo verificar a influência dessa tecnologia nas propriedades físicas de dois sistemas adesivos (convencional e autocondicionante) à partir da medição da tensão superficial e do ângulo de contato; e avaliar a formação e a qualidade da camada híbrida em dentina humana e bovina. A tensão superficial de quatro diferentes líquidos (água, Single Bond- 3M, Primer do Clearfil SE Bond -Kuraray, e Bond do Clearfil SE-Kuraray), foi medida antes e após a modificação pelo procedimento Grander em aparelho goniômetro (Ramé-hart). O ângulo de contato com três substratos distintos (placa de titânio, dentina humana e dentina bovina), foi medido para os quatro líquidos também antes e após a modificação pelo procedimento Grander, também em goniômetro. A formação e qualidade da camada híbrida, foi avaliada em MEV, a partir da confecção de corpos de prova dos substratos humano e bovino, devidamente embutidos, preparados em lixas de variada granulação até a exposição de dentina, submetidos ao procedimento adesivo (SB ou CSEB) normal ou grander modificado, recebendo ao final dupla camada de resina composta Z250-3M, fotopolimerizada por 40s. Após armazenamento em estufa bacteriológica por 24h, os procedimentos para análise ao MEV foram realizados (fixação, desidratação, secagem e metalização). A estatística de Análise de Variância ANOVA e Teste de Tukey 5% revelou que: houve redução estatisticamente significante da tensão superficial para todos os líquidos Grander modificados; houve redução estatisticamente...

Os carrapatos são ectoparasitas hematófagos de grande importância epidemiológica, pois são vetores de muitos patógenos. Esses animais pertencem ao Filo Arthropoda, Classe Arachnida, Subclasse Acari, são classificados em três famílias: Ixodidae, Argasidae e Nutalliellidae, apresentam ampla distribuição geográfica e podem parasitar grande variedade de vertebrados, inclusive o homem. O carrapato da espécie Amblyomma cajennense, popularmente conhecido como carrapato-estrela, carrapato do cavalo ou rodoleiro, tem grande importância médica por ser vetor da bactéria Rickettsia rickettsii, causadora da febre maculosa brasileira (FMB), que pode levar o hospedeiro a óbito. Apesar das crescentes pesquisas com esses animais, ainda existem lacunas na literatura acerca de alguns de seus processos reprodutivos. Dessa forma, esse trabalho teve por objetivo estudar o desenvolvimento dos testículos dessa espécie por meio da descrição da morfologia e histologia dos testículos de indivíduos em jejum e alimentados, identificando a dinâmica do processo de espermatogênese e se a alimentação influencia nesse processo. Os resultados obtidos mostraram que os testículos são estruturas pares e tubulares arranjadas dorsolateralmente no opistossoma, sendo que a região proximal está conectada às vesículas seminais pelos ductos deferentes, semelhante ao observado em outras espécies de ixodídeos. Associado ao aparelho genital masculino encontra-se um complexo de glândulas acessórias multilobuladas. Foi constatado que a alimentação tem papel fundamental no desenvolvimento do sistema reprodutor, visto que nos indivíduos em jejum as vesículas seminais e o complexo de glândulas acessórias foram menores e menos desenvolvidos do que nos animais alimentados. Além disso, as espermátides alongadas, precursoras dos espermatozoides no trato reprodutor... (Resumo completo, clicar acesso eletrônico abaixo)

In heavy machining industries, a critical point that must be taken into account is setup. Because the characteristics of machine tools and parts to be machined, usually pieces robust and large, the preparation of these parts must be made accurately for machining has a good result as planned. As a result of the difficulty raised in the setup machining of heavy parts, companies in this segment seek alternatives to reduce the unproductive time caused by setup and optimize machining processes. One way was found that these companies create operating instructions that describe and standardize the operation between its employees, as well as deploy a control machining times to measure the unproductive time caused by the setup. This work studied a new system for the realization of centering and alignment of Rotating Deck R-9350 in CNC Milling Machine PAMA Speedram 3000, in Liebherr Brazil company. The part Rotating Deck R-9350 is a critical part in which its machining in PAMA Milling Machine is made in three phases and their setup times are quite high and involve stopping the machine. It has been tested and proposed a solution to the realization of this part of the setup without the use of the machine, but of the measuring instrument three-dimensional Laser tracker, with which the machine continued to work, while he was in the centering and alignment of other parts. It was noted that the instrument technically attended the need and it was possible to perform this operation more accurately

A hipertensão arterial atinge uma média de 20% a 25% da população brasileira. Estudos apontam que a prática regular de atividade física além de combater o sedentarismo pode ser utilizada como meio não farmacológico de tratamento e prevenção da hipertensão. Objetivo: Verificar os efeitos do estado de ânimo gerado por exercícios não sistematizados e sistematizados na pressão arterial. Metodologia: Participaram do estudo 30 alunas que participam há mais de seis meses do Programa Saúde Ativa Rio Claro. Elas receberam treinamento duas semanas, para utilizarem o aparelho de pressão digital de pulso Fuzzy LOGIC. As participantes foram submetidas a 3 sessões de aulas (aeróbio, lúdico e força) em dias diferentes. As aulas do aeróbio contavam com 40 min de caminhada moderada, a aula de força constou 3 séries de 1 minuto, com intervalo entre as séries de 30 segundos para membros superiores e inferiores e a aula lúdica com brincadeiras não padronizadas. As aulas foram constituídas de alongamento (10 min), parte principal (40 min) e volta à calma (10 min). A pressão arterial sistólica (PAS) e diastólica (PAD) foram aferidas nos momentos: repouso (M1), término (M2), 30 minutos após a sessão (M3), 4 horas após (M4) e 8 horas após a sessão dos exercícios (M5). A análise estatística utilizada foi a Anova para medidas repetidas com 2 fatores (Momentos e Tipo de aula) com significância de p<0.05. Resultados: A PAS no M3 foi menor do que no M1 e M2 para todos os protocolos (p<0.05); para a PAD o M3 apresentou valores menores do que o M1 e M2 para todos os protocolos. Conclusão: O efeito hipotensor teve resultados mais significativos quando relacionado a prática dos exercícios do que aos estados de ânimo gerados pelos mesmos.

The use of multimodal neuroimaging techniques has been helpful in the investigation of epileptogenic zone in patients with refractory epilepsies. This work aims to describe an ictal event during EEG-fMRI performed simultaneously in a 39-year-old man with refractory epilepsy. The EEG data were recorded at a sampling rate of 5 kHz, using a BrainAmp (BrainProducts, München, Germany) amplifier, with 64 MR (magnetic resonance) compatible Ag/AgCl electrodes. MR images were acquired using a 3T scanner in 3 sequences of 6 minutes of echo-planar images (EPIs), with TR = 2s, being the last sequence stopped after the ictal event. The EEG was corrected for gradient and pulse artifacts using the Brain Vision Analyzer2 software (BrainProducts), and the functional images were realigned, slice-timing corrected, normalized and smoothed. The start of the ictal changes was used for the evaluation of the BOLD response in MR images, using a t-test with a minimum cluster of 5 voxels, p <0.005 (T>2.5). The patient had a partial complex seizure, as noted by neurologist. The fMRI data showed positive BOLD responses (activation) in dysplastic areas, but showed the most significant activation outside the lesion, in areas compatible with secondary spread of the epileptic focus, probably caused by motor reaction also observed during the seizure. As a conclusion, we note that the technique of EEG-fMRI can detect the epileptogenic zone in patients with refractory epilepsy, but areas of dissemination of primary epileptogenic focus may show significant activation, introducing additional difficulties to the interpretation of the results

The prescription of strength training intensity (ST) by maximum repetition (RM) is characterized by a decrease in the number of repetitions in multiple series. Some studies have shown that reductions in the intensity of exercise can optimize the volume of training with similar acute neuromuscular behaviors. The objective of the study was to investigate the acute effect of two different ST intensities on the training volume, maximum voluntary contraction (MVC) and rate of force development (RFD) in elderly women. The study included eight trained women (66.7 ± 6.7 years; 7.6 ± 17.8 kg; 159 cm; 29.33 ± 5.80 kg/m²). They underwent to three experimental conditions: two different intensities of ST (100% and 80% of 15-RM) on a chair for Leg Extension and a control condition. In the condition to 100% of 15 RM, all participants performed three sets to the concentric muscle fatigue, whereas in the condition to 80% involved the use of two sets of 15 repetitions and only the third to the concentric muscle fatigue. The order of experimental conditions was randomized. The MVC and RFD were determined on the basis of the isometric forcetime curve analysis which was obtained by a force transducer fixed on the unit Bonnet Chair, in the pre and after four and ten minutes for each experimental conditions. The total volume was calculated by multiplying the number of repetitions in three sets by the load in kg. Descriptive statistical analysis procedures were employed (mean ± standard deviation) in addition to two-way ANOVA. The level of significance was set at p <0.05. It was neither main effect of moment or condition, nor condition x moment interaction for MVC and RFD. For the total volume, no significant difference was noted between the conditions (100 and 80% of 15-RM). For sustainability of ...(Complete abstract click electronic access below)

The Doppler ultrasound allows the assessment of blood flow and the differentiate vessels according to each spectral pattern, location and organ that irrigate, helping the examinations and disease diagnosis. The main methods used are Pulsed Doppler, Color Doppler and Power Doppler. In Brazil veterinary medicine, it shows progress since 1990, but its use is limited by the equipment high cost, the need for operator experience and patient cooperation. There are studies in obstetrics and reproduction of dogs and cats, such as evaluation of the testicular vasculature, including the use of contrast material, and attempts to evaluate prostate in healthy dogs or pathological conditions (cancer and testicular torsion , orchitis and benign prostatic hyperplasia; estrous cycle monitoring, evaluation of irrigation in follicles and corpus luteum, uterus and breasts (mammary tumors) in bitches; monitoring pregnancy from the assessment of maternal, fetal and placental hemodynamics, both in dogs as in cats, and aspirations for early detection of pregnancy in dogs. However, new studies are still required, given the lack of these species, especially cats
