Avaliação do índice de sucesso dos enxertos autógenos e dos implantes instalados em região de seio maxilar

Maxillary sinus lifting surgery is considered an excellent option for patient rehabilitation in cases of maxillary sinus pneumatization. This longitudinal study was performed in 41 patients to evaluate 51 maxillary sinus lifting procedures concomitant to autogenous bone grafted from mandibular ramus. Of the 107 implants installed, 28 were immediate fixations. Success index achieved regarding to bone graft was of 98.04%. The implants installed immediately or after bone grafting resulted in success rates of 92.86% and 94.59% respectively, with no statistically significant differences between them. Surgeries for bone grafting and immediate installation are considered a reliable treatment alternative provided that both anatomical structures and tissue physiology are kept in good conditions, with appropriate indication and techniques for good implant stability.

Construção e calibração de um inclinômetro para uso em tratores agrícolas como instrumento de segurança

The tractors are the main potency source, for the traction of tillage equipments and their use are increasing more and more in Brazilian agriculture. In spite of the great technological progress the increase of the number of agricultural tractors brought positive aspects and some negative, among these last ones it stands out the appearance of a new source of work accidents, which importance is given by the physical damages caused to the operator. Therefore the objective of this work was to project and develop an inclinometer, which indicates the inclination of the land, as safety sensor for agricultural tractors to avoid lateral hollovers, through a resonant sign, for the operator and the machine preservation. The built and evaluated inclinometer showed to be efficient for inclination indication of different areas during field operations with agricultural tractors, small angle oscillation and enough answer time to help operators to take decisions in imminence situation of lateral machine hollovers.

Estrutura de conteúdos educativos para TV Digital: um modelo de referência

This paper proposes a model of educative content structuring for interactive digital television programs. Its intent was to provide references for collaborative production processes and content organization in learning networks associated with university and educative television broadcasting services. The model defines terms, actors, events, environments, as well as content categories, classes and attributes, indicating criteria for their synchronic or asynchronic association in a dynamic television schedule. The model is presented in both descriptive and visual formats, with the use of conceptual maps. The results indicate that interactive use of digital television in education requires systematic content models covering communitarian participation in both media production and distribution processes, in order to enhance learning instruments beyond vertical, hierarchical and centralized communication sustained by traditional broadcast channels.

Potencialidades e dificuldades interpessoais de universitários: estudo de caracterização

The interpersonal development can stimulate quality social relationship and promote people´s health. Interpersonal relationships are demanded by the university context, which requires the students to develop and to express socially skillful behaviors. However, diffi culties in interpersonal relationship in the university are common. Characterization studies can help the identifi cation of diffi culties and behavioral potentialities of students and promote effi cient trainings with college students This research aimed to: a) describe the prevalence of reports of university students who sought for psychological help, as the behavior called social skills, (b) identify the partners (family, boyfriend (a), friends, colleagues, teachers) with whom such responses are issued, (c) describe consequences reported by students that occur in the interaction with such parties. Data were obtained from semi structured interviews and IHS-Del Prette instrument. The interviews data were categorized by the analysis content and IHS-Del Prette data were computed according to concerning instructions. The outcomes describe potentialities and diffi culties that the students presented in relation to the social skills according to different aspects: university, work, love relationship, friends and family. The behaviors reported with higher frequency are related to speaking in public, talking to the partner about the relationship, speaking with friends and family members and fl irt. It was also observed that in all the categories the behaviors had as consequence more punishing than reinforcing events. The outcomes obtained of IHS-Del Prette found out that 50% of the sample showed [ok] poor social skills repertoire demanding training.

Sorovacinação antirrabica: aspectos epidemiologicos e implicações para assistência de enfermagem

This study was developed with the purpose to search for relevant knowledge concerning nursing care for individuals exposed to the rabies virus and submitted to post-exposure anti-rabies serovaccination. The authors aimed at evaluating the epidemiological aspects of accidents involving household and wild animals occurring in 2007 and patients assisted at a reference hospital located in the mid-southern region of São Paulo State. They also aimed at identifying the relevance of nurses' actions by describing aspects of care provision. The method adopted was exploratory, retrospective and descriptive of the epidemiological aspects of the accidents and of the care provided to these patients by referring to information in their medical charts. Fifty-one charts of patients aged 17 to 81 years, considered to be at risk and with indication for post-exposure prophylaxis against human rabies were evaluated. It was found that nursing care provision to these patients presents low complexity although it requires properly trained professionals. It was possible to identify the relevance of nurses' actions in care provision and procedures related to anti-rabies prophylaxis; however, consistent information concerning nursing care was not observed.

Pólipos endometriais e seu risco de malignização: aspectos epidemiológicos, clínicos e imunoistoquímicos

Endometrial polyps are neoformations that result from focal hyperplasia of the endometrial basal layer associated with hormonal hyperstimulation. Their pathogenesis is still unclear, and there is no consensus on their natural history, actual relevance as pathologic entities, and relationship with endometrial neoplasia. Endometrial polyps are the most frequent indication of surgical hysteroscopy, but their optimal management remains controversial. Therefore, an overview of this condition may help choosing the most adequate treatment strategies.

Características do processo de diagnóstico de hanseníase no atendimento primário e secundário

Contexto e objetivo: A hanseníase caracteriza-se por ter diagnóstico eminentemente clínico, principalmente através da constatação de hipo ou anestesia das lesões, ou seja, sem necessariamente o uso de exames adicionais, como baciloscopia e biópsia, utilizados para classificação clínica da doença. Buscou-se definir se há tendência à desvalorização da avaliação clínica em favor do excesso de exames complementares, investigar a adequação do registro nos atendimentos da atenção básica e compará-los com o obtido em serviço de média complexidade. Desenho e local: Estudo transversal, de base populacional, utilizando registros de prontuários, realizado em dois âmbitos de atendimentos de saúde da cidade de Campinas (SP): os Centros de Saúde e a assistência dermatológica especializada de hospital de ensino. Métodos: Os registros foram investigados por meio da aplicação de checklist, contendo itens indispensáveis ao atendimento a hansenianos. Associações foram testadas pela prova de Goodman e ao nível de 5% de significância. Resultados: Foram avaliados 33 prontuários oriundos dos centros de saúde e 36 do hospital, observou-se polarização entre registros adequados e ausentes, evidenciando a presença de efeito tudo ou nada nos atendimentos; de 26 variáveis, apenas em 5 (19,23%) obteve-se predomínio da avaliação do hospital sobre os centros de saúde; evidenciou-se dependência de exames complementares, solicitados em 67 dos 69 atendimentos (97,10%), para diagnóstico da doença. Conclusão: Confirmou-se, neste estudo, déficit da avaliação médica e indicação inadequada de exames adicionais. Por associar-se com excesso de solicitação de exames, a observação clínica mostrou-se incompleta, comprometendo a capacidade diagnóstica dos atendimentos a hansenianos.
