La focalización de la pobreza versus la construcción de capacidades ciudadanas: El dilema de los Comedores Comunitarios de Ciudad Bolívar

El interés de esta investigación diagnóstica es establecer la incidencia de la focalización de la pobreza en la construcción de capacidades ciudadanas de los usuarios de los Comedores Comunitarios de Ciudad Bolívar. Se identifica y analiza cómo los mecanismos de focalización aún cuando permiten que se implemente la política pública de Seguridad Alimentaria dentro de esta localidad, limitan el escenario de construcción de capacidades ciudadanas, en tanto que convierten al usuario en un sujeto de la política asistencial que carece de libertades para superar su condición de pobreza. Este ejercicio diagnóstico se apoya en la teoría de libertades y capacidades de Amartya Sen para su diseño metodológico, así como también para el análisis de la información obtenida en el marco de esta investigación.

Resposta fenotípica de arroz de terras altas ao estresse de fósforo no solo.

Avaliaram-se, neste trabalho, em condições de baixo e alto teor de fósforo (P) no solo, 51 linhagens de arroz provenientes do Banco Ativo de Germoplasma da Embrapa Arroz e Feijão, com o objetivo de identificar indicadores de eficiência no uso de P e linhagens com eficiência diferenciada no uso desse nutriente. O índice de eficiência do uso de fósforo mostrou ser mais adequado que a produtividade em baixo teor de fósforo no solo, na avaliação da eficiência diferenciada das linhagens no uso do P. Três linhagens, CNA 4634, CNA 4120 e CNA 3178, apresentam bom comportamento produtivo, tanto em alto como em baixo teor de P no solo e 22 mostraram bom comportamento produtivo em alto teor de P no solo; entretanto, não foram eficientes no aproveitamento de baixo P disponível no solo enquanto as demais foram desconsideradas em razão de indicarem baixo comportamento produtivo sob boa disponibilidade de P.

Gestão do trabalho e da educação na saúde na estratégia de saúde da família em Catas Altas - MG

Este trabalho tem como objetivo relatar e discutir a experiência da Gestão do Trabalho e da Educação na Saúde das Equipes de Saúde da Família de Catas Altas-MG, trazendo propostas para intervenção e aprimoramento desta área. O estudo foi realizado a partir de uma revisão bibliográfica sobre o tema "Gestão do Trabalho e da Educação na Saúde", buscando adequá-lo ao processo de trabalho da estratégia de Saúde da Família deste município. Ficou evidente a necessidade de aperfeiçoar a Gestão do Trabalho e da Educação na Saúde para alcançar melhores resultados com os recursos disponíveis e, para tanto, deve-se estruturar um setor de Gestão do Trabalho e Educação na Saúde, ultrapassando os limites de um Setor de Recursos Humanos. A convocação dos profissionais aprovados no último concurso público deve ser planejada em conjunto com a estruturação dos programas de educação permanente, que deverá ser realizada por equipes multiprofissionais e intersetoriais, baseadas no próprio processo de trabalho, buscando respostas a problemas reais do serviço. Outro ponto essencial é o aperfeiçoamento do Plano de Carreiras, Cargos e Salários baseando-se em um trabalho coletivo e preocupandose com a melhoria da atenção aos usuários do Sistema Único de Saúde. Este plano deve possibilitar o desenvolvimento de carreira, valorizar o tempo de trabalho e a qualificação profissional, além dos resultados alcançados individualmente e institucionalmente. Para finalizar, cabe destacar a importância da criação de um espaço de negociação permanente entre gestor e trabalhadores, enfrentando os conflitos e interesses e trazendo respostas mais adequadas e democráticas aos desafios da atenção à saúde.

Relação dose-dependente do uso crônico de fenitoína e atrofia cerebelar em pacientes com epilepsia

The chronic treatment with phenytoin or the acute intoxication by this drug may cause permanent cerebellar injury with atrophy of cerebellum vermis and hemispheres, which can be detected by neuroimaging studies. The aim of the present study was to investigate the correlation between the dosage and duration of treatment with phenytoin and the occurrence of cerebellar atrophy. Sixty-six patients were studied and had their tomographies analyzed for cerebellar atrophy. Of the 66 patients studied, 18 had moderate/severe atrophy, 15 had mild atrophy and 33 were considered to be normal. The patients with moderate/severe atrophy were those with higher exposure to phenytoin (longer duration of treatment and higher total dosage) showing statistically significant difference when compared to patients with mild atrophy or without atrophy (p=0.02). Further, the patients with moderate/severe atrophy had serum levels of phenytoin statistically higher than those of patients with mild atrophy or without atrophy (p = 0.008). There was no association between other antiepileptic drugs dosage or duration of treatment and degree of cerebellar atrophy. We also found that older patients had cerebellar atrophy more frequently, indicating that age or duration of the seizure disorder may also be important in the determination of cerebellar degeneration in these patients. We conclude that although there is a possibility that repeated seizures contribute to cerebellar damage, long term exposure to phenytoin, particularly in high doses and toxic serum levels, cause cerebellar atrophy.

Avaliação física do tomate de mesa 'Romana' durante manuseio na pós-colheita

Tomato postharvest losses are very high in Brazil and the goal of this research was to evaluate the effect of handling and the transport of tomato fruits, cultivar Romana on the steps of harvesting, weight and transportation to the packinghouse, pointing some critical points. Tomatoes were harvested at plastic boxes, weighted and shipped to a packinghouse. Fruits taken directly from the plant were determined as reference. The parameters evaluated were weight loss and mechanical injury and tomato physical quality after storage during 21 days. It was observed an increasing on the weight loss, external damage, and postharvest losses, after storage. Handling and transportation were the cause of an increase in 6.6% in external damage and 1.93% of weight loss after storage, when comparing harvested fruits and fruits evaluated on the packing-house. The main reason for postharvest losses was due to mechanical injury caused during transportation mainly due to the compressure force among fruits and against the plastic boxes.

Estimativa de bem-estar de frango de corte em função da concentração de amônia e grau de luminosidade no galpão de produção

Brazil is an important poultry meat export country, and large parts of its destination are countries with specific rearing restrictions related to broiler s welfare. One of the aerial pollutants mostly found in high concentrations in closed poultry housing environment is ammonia. There are evidences that broilers welfare may be compromised by the continuous exposition to this pollutant in rearing housing. This research aimed to estimate broilers welfare reared under specific thermal environmental attributes and bird s density, as function of the ammonia concentration and light intensity inside the housing environment using the Fuzzy Theory. Results showed that the best welfare value (0.89 in the scale: 0-1) approximately 90% of the ideal was found in the conditions that associated the ideal thermal environment, with bird s density between 13-15 birds m-2, with values of the ammonia concentration in the environment below 5 ppm, and light intensity near 1 lx. Using the predictive method it was possible to estimate broilers welfare with relation to the ammonia concentration and light intensity in the housing.

Ambiências térmica, aérea e acústica para reprodutores suínos

The swine breeder rearing environment directly affects the animal's performance. This research had the objective of developing a thermal, aerial and acoustic environmental evaluation pattern for boar housing. The experiment was carried on a commercial swine farm in Salto County -SP, Brazil. Thermal, aerial and acoustic environment data of rearing conditions were registered. Data were statistically analyzed using as threshold the ideal housing environment that leads to animal welfare. Results showed that ambient temperature was around 70% beyond normal range, while air relative humidity, air speed and gases concentration were within threshold values. Noise level data besides being within normal range did not present large variation. In relation to the fuzzy logic analysis it was possible to build up a scenario which indicated that the best welfare indexes to male swine breeders happens when thermal comfort index are close to 80%, and noise level is lower than 40 dB. In the other hand the worst welfare index occur in the sector where the thermal comfort values are below 40% at the same time that the noise level is higher than 80 dB leading to inadequate conditions to the animal, and may directly interfere in the reproduction system performance.

Estudo comparativo dos métodos de estimativa da idade óssea de Greulich & Pyle e Tanner & Whitehouse

The purpose of this study was to verify whether the Greulich & Pyle (GP), Greulich & Pyle Visual (GPV) and Tanner & Whitehouse (TW) methods for estimating skeletal age could be applied in the Brazilian population, and which of these three methods could be considered more reliable when compared with the chronological age of the individuals. This study was based on one hundred and sixty volunteers (80 females and 80 males) with ages between 6 years and 10 months and 14 years and 9 months. The results showed that for the GP method, the correlations with chronological age were 0.95 for males and 0.97 for females. For the GPV method, the correlations were 0.96 and 0.97, respectively and for TW, 0.96 and 0.97. The results showed that the Greulich & Pyle, Greulich & Pyle Visual and Tanner & Whitehouse methods presented high correlation values when compared with the chronological age of the individuals. Corrective factors were established to make these methods applicable to the Brazilian population.

Cumulative doses of radioiodine in the treatment of differentiated thyroid carcinoma: knowing when to stop

OBJECTIVE: Evaluate the efficacy of cumulative doses (CDs) of 131I-iodide therapy (RIT) in differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC). SUBJECTS AND METHODS: The probability of progressive disease according to CDs was evaluated in patients < 45 years old and > 45 years old and correlated to tumor-node-metastasis (TNM), thyroglobulin values, histological types and variants, age, and zduration of the disease. RESULTS: At the end of a follow-up period of 69 ± 56 months, 85 out of 150 DTC patients submitted to fixed doses RIT had no evidence of disease, 47 had stable disease and 18 had progressive disease. Higher CDs were used in the more aggressive variants (p < 0.0001), higher TNM stages (p < 0.0001), and follicular carcinomas (p = 0.0034). Probability of disease progression was higher with CDs > 600 mCi in patients > 45 years old and with CDs > 800 mCi in patients < 45 years. CONCLUSION: Although some patients may still respond to high CDs, the impact of further RIT should be carefully evaluated and other treatment strategies may be warranted.
