Relatório final de estágio realizado na Escola Secundária com 2º e 3º ciclos Anselmo de Andrade

O presente relatório constitui-se como uma análise reflexiva do processo de formação do Estágio Pedagógico desenvolvido na Escola Secundária com 2º e 3º ciclos Anselmo de Andrade, em Almada, no ano letivo 2013/2014. O estágio em questão integra o 2º ano do Mestrado em Ensino da Educação Física nos Ensinos Básico e Secundário da Faculdade de Motricidade Humana. O relatório teve por base o Guia de Estágio Pedagógico 2013/2014, que define as competências a adquirir em quatro áreas de intervenção: (1) Organização e gestão do ensino e da aprendizagem, (2) Investigação e inovação pedagógica, (3) Participação na escola e (4) Relação com a comunidade. É feita uma contextualização do estágio seguida de uma descrição e reflexão sobre a prática pedagógica de cada área e uma reflexão sobre a contribuição das aprendizagens para o meu futuro profissional, sendo ainda lançadas algumas propostas de atividades que poderiam ter sido desenvolvidas no estágio pedagógico ou no futuro. É também realizada uma reflexão final sobre todo o processo inerente ao estágio, destacando-o como um processo interligado, e, ainda, uma reflexão sobre a importância do Plano Individual de Formação, efetuando um resumo das competências desenvolvidas ao longo do processo de estágio.

Efeitos do ácido 2-cloroetilfosfônico na maturação de frutos do tomateiro (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill. cv. 'São Sebastião')

Estudou-se a influência do ácido 2-cloroetilfosfônico (ethephon), aplicado em pré-maturação, na frutificação do tomateiro de crescimento indeterminado, cultivar 'São Sebastião'; em condições de casa de vegetação. Pela análise da produtividade verificou-se que o regulador de crescimento acelerou significativamente a maturação dos frutos, incrementando o peso e o número total de frutos por planta obtidos nas primeiras colheitas, sendo isto compensado por diminuições significativas em colheitas posteriores. Não observou-se porém, diferenças significativas no peso e número de frutos por planta, considerando a totalidade das colheitas, entre o controle e as plantas tratadas com 1000, 2000 e 4000 ppm de ethephon.

Influência do ácido 2-cloroetil fosfônico na indução do florescimento e na produtividade final do tomateiro (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill.)

Estudou-se a influência do ácido 2-cloroetil fosfônico (Ethrel) na indução do florescimento do tomateiro, de crescimento indeterminado, cultivar "Santa Cruz Gigante", aplicado em diferentes estágios de desenvolvimento (uma, quatro e oito semanas após o transplante da planta para o campo), nas concentrações de 100, 200, 300 e 400 ppm do produto. Observou-se que em plantas em pleno florescimento, as maiores concentrações do produto (300 e 400 ppm) provocaram murchamento da planta e posterior abscisão de parte das inflorescências, sem, entretanto reduzir a produção final. Não foi observada, a indução do florescimento e também aumento significativo na produtividade final.

Efeitos do ácido 2-cloroetilfosfônico na maturação de folhas em cultura de fumo (Nicotiana tabacun L.)

Estudou-se a influência do ácido 2-cloroetilfosfônico, aplicado em cultura de fumo (Niaotiana tabacum L.) cultivar "Goianinho", em condições de campo, visando uniformizar e antecipar a colheita das folhas. Aplicou-se o produto comercial Ethrel (240 g/l de i.a), nas dosagens de 2,4, 6 e 8 litros/ha, quando nas folhas apre sentavam, na maior parte da planta o crescimento máximo. Após 6 dias do tratamento, foram as folhas colhidas, contadas e pesadas. Os resultados obtidos mostraram que o regulador vegetal utilizado promoveu um amadurecimento mais precoce, antecipando e uniformizando a colheita das folhas de fumo, independentemente das concentrações utilizadas, que não diferiram entre si.

II Jornadas Nacionales de Olivicultura de la SECH, 2 y 3 de Marzo de 2009, Tarragona

El grupo de olivo de la SECH se formó en el año 2005 con la vocación de favorecer la integración y la discusión de los investigadores que trabajan en temas relacionados con el olivar, las almazaras y la calidad del fruto, tanto del aceite de oliva como de la aceituna de mesa. Para favorecer este debate, en octubre de 2006, se realizaron las I Jornadas en Córdoba, y en ellas se abordaron tres temas: nuevas tendencias en la elección vegetal, plantaciones superintensivas y sistemas de manejo del suelo. En las II Jornadas que se van a realizar en Tarragona se debatirán distintos temas como el material vegetal, algún enfoque de la olivicultura sostenible, tecnología de almazaras y calidad del aceite de oliva.

Phase I and phase II xenobiotic reactions and metabolism of the food-borne carcinogen 2-amino-3,8-dimethylimidazo[4,5-f]quinoxaline in aggregating liver cell cultures.

Aggregating fetal liver cell cultures were tested for their ability to metabolize xenobiotics using ethoxycoumarin-O-deethylase (ECOD), as marker of phase I metabolism, and glutathione S-transferase (GST), as marker for phase II reactions. Significant basal activities, stable over 14 days in culture were measured for both ECOD and GST activities. The prototype cytochrome P450 inducers, 3-methylcholanthrene (3-MC) and phenobarbital (PB), increased ECOD and GST activities reaching an optimum 7 days after culturing, followed by a decline in activity. This decline was partially prevented by 1% dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) added chronically to the culture medium. DMSO was also found to induce ECOD activity and to a lesser extent GST activity. Furthermore, it potentiated in a dose-dependent manner the induction of ECOD by PB. The food-borne carcinogen 2-amino-3,8-dimethylimidazo[4,5-f]quinoxaline (MeIQx) is metabolically transformed through a number of pathways in vivo. It was therefore used to examine the metabolic capacity in fetal and adult liver cell aggregates. Metabolism of MeIQx was mainly through N2-conjugation, resulting in formation of the N2-glucuronide and sulfamate conjugates for non-induced fetal liver cells. These metabolites were also found in large amounts in non-induced adult liver cells. Low levels of cytochrome P450-mediated ring-hydroxylated metabolites were detected in both non-induced fetal and adult liver cells. After induction with arochlor (PCB) or 3-MC, the major pathway was ring-hydroxylation (cytochrome P450 dependent), followed by conjugation to beta-glucuronic or sulfuric acid. The presence of the glucuronide conjugate of N-hydroxy-MeIQx, a mutagenic metabolite, suggested an induction of P450 CYP1A2. The metabolism of MeIQx by liver cell aggregates is very similar to that observed in vivo and suggests that aggregating liver cell cultures are a useful model for in vitro metabolic studies in toxicology.

Evaluation of organ-specific peripheral doses after 2-dimensional, 3-dimensional and hybrid intensity modulated radiation therapy for breast cancer based on Monte Carlo and convolution/superposition algorithms: implications for secondary cancer risk assessment.

To make a comprehensive evaluation of organ-specific out-of-field doses using Monte Carlo (MC) simulations for different breast cancer irradiation techniques and to compare results with a commercial treatment planning system (TPS). Three breast radiotherapy techniques using 6MV tangential photon beams were compared: (a) 2DRT (open rectangular fields), (b) 3DCRT (conformal wedged fields), and (c) hybrid IMRT (open conformal+modulated fields). Over 35 organs were contoured in a whole-body CT scan and organ-specific dose distributions were determined with MC and the TPS. Large differences in out-of-field doses were observed between MC and TPS calculations, even for organs close to the target volume such as the heart, the lungs and the contralateral breast (up to 70% difference). MC simulations showed that a large fraction of the out-of-field dose comes from the out-of-field head scatter fluence (>40%) which is not adequately modeled by the TPS. Based on MC simulations, the 3DCRT technique using external wedges yielded significantly higher doses (up to a factor 4-5 in the pelvis) than the 2DRT and the hybrid IMRT techniques which yielded similar out-of-field doses. In sharp contrast to popular belief, the IMRT technique investigated here does not increase the out-of-field dose compared to conventional techniques and may offer the most optimal plan. The 3DCRT technique with external wedges yields the largest out-of-field doses. For accurate out-of-field dose assessment, a commercial TPS should not be used, even for organs near the target volume (contralateral breast, lungs, heart).

Wild dengue virus types 1, 2 and 3 viremia in rhesus monkeys

Among the flaviviruses, dengue, with its four serotypes, has spread throughout the tropics. The most advanced vaccines developed so far include live attenuated viruses, which have been tested in humans but none has been licensed. Preclinical testing of dengue vaccine candidates is performed initially in mice and in nonhuman primates. In the latter the main criteria used to assay protection are neutralizing antibodies elicited by the vaccine candidate and the magnitude and duration of peripheral viremia upon challenge of previously immunized animals. Towards the identification of wild-type viruses that could be used in challenge experiments a total of 31 rhesus monkeys were inoculated subcutaneously of wild dengue types 1, 2, and 3 viruses. The viremia caused by the different viruses was variable but it was possible to identify dengue viruses useful as challenge strains.

New electrocardiographic criteria for discriminating between Brugada types 2 and 3 patterns and incomplete right bundle branch block.

OBJECTIVES: The aim of this study was to evaluate new electrocardiographic (ECG) criteria for discriminating between incomplete right bundle branch block (RBBB) and the Brugada types 2 and 3 ECG patterns. BACKGROUND: Brugada syndrome can manifest as either type 2 or type 3 pattern. The latter should be distinguished from incomplete RBBB, present in 3% of the population. METHODS: Thirty-eight patients with either type 2 or type 3 Brugada pattern that were referred for an antiarrhythmic drug challenge (AAD) were included. Before AAD, 2 angles were measured from ECG leads V(1) and/or V(2) showing incomplete RBBB: 1) α, the angle between a vertical line and the downslope of the r'-wave, and 2) β, the angle between the upslope of the S-wave and the downslope of the r'-wave. Baseline angle values, alone or combined with QRS duration, were compared between patients with negative and positive results on AAD. Receiver-operating characteristic curves were constructed to identify optimal discriminative cutoff values. RESULTS: The mean β angle was significantly smaller in the 14 patients with negative results on AAD compared to the 24 patients with positive results on AAD (36 ± 20° vs. 62 ± 20°, p < 0.01). Its optimal cutoff value was 58°, which yielded a positive predictive value of 73% and a negative predictive value of 87% for conversion to type 1 pattern on AAD; α was slightly less sensitive and specific compared with β. When the angles were combined with QRS duration, it tended to improve discrimination. CONCLUSIONS: In patients with suspected Brugada syndrome, simple ECG criteria can enable discrimination between incomplete RBBB and types 2 and 3 Brugada patterns.
