Projeto social, esporte e educação: a produção da identidade no ensino do taekwondo / Social project, sport and education: the production of identity in teaching taekwondo / Proyecto social, deporte y educación: la producción de la identidad en la enseñanza del taekwondo

Por meio de algumas noções conceituais produzidas no campo dos Estudos Culturais e entrevistas narrativas com participantes de um projeto social de ensino do Taekwondo, vinculado ao Programa Escola da Família, analisamos como projetos desse tipo influenciam na vida de jovens em situação de vulnerabilidade social. Consideramos que tais projetos produzem identidades e impactam as subjetividades dos jovens atendidos, quando estes não se adéquam aos discursos hegemônicos de classe social, gênero, saúde e educação; contribuem para que crianças e jovens permaneçam à margem da sociedade em que se encontram e, por consequência, favorecem a promoção de políticas que os mantém tutelados pelo Estado.

Through some conceptual notions produced in the field of Cultural Studies and narrative interviews with participants from the social project the teaching of Taekwondo linked to the Escola da Família Program, we analyzed how projects of this type influence the lives of young people in situations of social vulnerability. We consider that projects like this impact the subjectivities of the young people who is inside the project, when they are not adapted to the hegemonic discourses of social classes, gender, health and education; they help children and young people to remain on the margins of the society in which they find themselves and, consequently, favoring the promotion of policies that keep them under the tutelage of the State.

Consideramos que proyectos como este impactan las subjetividades de los jóvenes atendidos, cuando no se adaptan a los discursos hegemónicos de clase social, género, salud y educación; ayudan a los niños, niñas y jóvenes a permanecer al margen de la sociedad en la que se encuentran y, en consecuencia, favorecen la promoción de políticas que los mantengan bajo la tutela del Estado.

Currículo cultural: outras possibilidades de pensar a ressignificação / Cultural curriculum: other possibilities of thinking about resignification / Currículo cultural: otras posibilidades de pensar la resignificación

Resumo Neste artigo, apresentamos o modo como o encaminhamento didático-metodológico do Currículo Cultural da Educação Física denominado ressignificação emerge nas aulas do componente e alguns de seus possíveis efeitos nos modos de subjetivação dos discentes. Por meio de uma autoetnografia, produzimos um relato de prática pedagógica, o qual analisamos com base no quadro teórico que ancora essa perspectiva curricular e nas noções de governamentalidade e contraconduta desenvolvidas por Michel Foucault. Notamos que a ressignificação desponta nas ações de resistência promovidas pelos discentes em relação aos modos de regulação das aulas e da prática corporal em estudo. Visto que essas resistências possibilitaram aos discentes elaborarem ações de contraconduta. Um processo que possibilitou outras conduções de si, do outro, assim como diferentes formas de ser, viver e pensar sobre a prática corporal em estudo, potencializando práticas de liberdade. (AU)

Abstract In this article, we present in which way the didactic-methodological proceeding of the Cultural Curriculum of Physical Education called resignification emerges, and some of its possible effects on the students' modes of subjectivation. By means of an autoethnography, we produced a report of pedagogical practice, which we analyzed based on the theoretical bases that anchors this curricular perspective and the notions of governmentality and counter-conduct elaborated by Michel Foucault. We noticed that the resignification emerges in the resistance actions promoted by the participants in relation to the ways of regulating the classes and the corporal practices under study, since these allow students to elaborate counter-conduct actions. A process that made possible other conducts of self, of others, as well as different ways of being, living and thinking about the corporal practices under study, potentiating practices of freedom.

Diversification of Amazonian spiny tree rats in genus Makalata (Rodentia, Echimyidae): Cryptic diversity, geographic structure and drivers of speciation.

Amazonian mammal diversity is exceptionally high, yet new taxonomic discoveries continue to be made and many questions remain for understanding its diversification through time and space. Here we investigate the diversification of spiny rats in the genus Makalata, whose species are strongly associated with seasonally flooded forests, watercourses and flooded islands. We use a biogeographical approach based on a mitochondrial cytochrome b gene through divergence time estimation and reconstruction of ancestral areas and events. Our findings indicate an ancient origin of Makalata for the Guiana Shield and Eastern Amazonia as ancestral area. A first cladogenetic event led to a phylogeographic break into two broader clades of Makalata through dispersal, implying a pattern of western/Eastern Amazonian clades coinciding with the Purus Arch (middle Miocene). Most of subclades we infer originated between the late Pliocene to the early Pleistocene, with few recent exceptions in the early Pliocene through dispersal and vicariant events. The hypothesis of rivers as dispersal barriers is not corroborated for Makalata, as expected for mammalian species associated with seasonally flooded environments. We identify two key events for the expansion and diversification of Makalata species: the presence of geologically stable areas in the Guiana and Brazilian shields and the transition from lacustrine conditions in western Amazonia (Acre system) to a river system, with the establishment of the Amazon River transcontinental system and its tributaries. Our results are congruent with older geological scenarios for the Amazon basin formation (Miocene), but we do not discard the influence of recent dynamics on some speciation events and, mainly, on phylogeographic structuring processes.

Clinical Course of Patients Undergoing Myocardial Revascularization Surgery in a Public Cardiology Referral Hospital in Pará, Brazil

Myocardial revascularization surgery (MRS) is the most frequently performed cardiac surgery in Brazil. However, data on mortality rates among patients undergoing MRS in hospitals other than the main referral centers in the northern Brazil are scarce. Objective: To describe the clinical course of patients that submitted to MRS in the major public cardiology referral hospital in the Brazilian Amazon. Methods: Retrospective cohort analysis, by review of medical records of patients who had undergone MRS at Hospital das Clínicas Gaspar Vianna (FHCGV) from January 2013 to June 2014. Results: A total of 179 patients were evaluated. Mortality rate was 11.7% until 30 days after surgery. Waiting time for surgery ≥ 30 days (OR 2.59, 95%CI 1.02 - 6.56, p = 0.039), infection during hospitalization (OR 3.28, 95%CI 1.15 - 9.39, p = 0.021) and need for hemodialysis after surgery (OR 9.06 95%CI 2.07 - 39.54, p = 0.001) were predictors of mortality after CABG. Conclusion: A high mortality rate in the study population was found, higher than that reported in the literature and in other regions of Brazil

Electrocardiography scar quantification correlates with scar size of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy seen by multidetector computed tomography.

BACKGROUND: Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM), a genetically transmitted disease, is the most common genetic cardiovascular disease. Current strategies to stratify risk are expensive and concentrated in wealthy centers. Twelve-lead electrocardiography (ECG) is inexpensive, universally available, and can be readily used for Selvester QRS scoring, which estimates scar size. This study aimed to establish the relation between ECG scar quantification and myocardial fibrosis (extent of myocardial delayed enhancement) in multidetector computed tomography (MDCT). HYPOTHESIS: There is a significant association between ECG scar quantification and the extent of myocardial delayed enhancement in MDCT. METHODS: Seventy-five patients with HCM underwent a routine clinical evaluation and echocardiography, 12-lead ECG, and MDCT study. Patients with and without an implantable cardioverter-defibrillator were included. RESULTS: The estimated Selvester QRS score of myocardial fibrosis was correlated significantly (R = 0.70; P < 0.01) with the quantified MDCT fibrosis. Compared with MDCT, the QRS score had 84.8% sensitivity and 88.8% specificity. Myocardial fibrosis was present in 88% of these patients with HCM (fibrotic mass, 9.87 ±10.8 g) comprising 5.66% ±6.16% of the total myocardial mass seen on the MDCT images. The Selvester QRS score reliably predicted the fibrotic mass in 76% of patients, which estimated 8.44% ±7.39% of the total myocardial mass. CONCLUSIONS: The Selvester QRS score provides reliable quantification of myocardial fibrosis and was well correlated with MDCT in patients with HCM.

CKD-EPI versus Cockcroft-Gault formula for predicting contrast-induced nephropathy following percutaneous coronary intervention in patients without significant renal impairment. / Fórmula de CKD­EPI versus Cockcroft­Gault na predição de nefropatia induzida por contraste após intervenção coronária percutânea, em pacientes sem disfunção renal significativa.

INTRODUCTION: Individuals with glomerular filtration rate (GFR) ≥60 ml/min/1.73 m2 estimated by the Cockcroft-Gault formula (CG) who undergo percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) frequently develop contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN). This study aimed to assess whether individuals with significant renal impairment assessed by the Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration (CKD-EPI) formula, but not by CG, more often develop CIN following PCI than those without renal impairment by either formula. METHODS: In this cross-sectional study analyzing patients with baseline CG GFR ≥60 ml/min/1.73 m2 before PCI, subjects were divided into two groups according to CIN occurrence. Baseline CKD-EPI GFR was calculated for all patients. RESULTS: We analyzed 140 patients. Baseline GFR was 87.5±21.3 and 77.1±15.0 ml/min/1.73 m2 for CG and CKD-EPI, respectively. CIN occurred in 84.6% of individuals with baseline CKD-EPI GFR <60 ml/min/1.73 m2 vs. 51.1% of those without. Males and those with higher body mass index were more likely to present baseline CKD-EPI GFR <60 ml/min/1.73 m2 (p=0.021). Non-ionic contrast agent use and baseline CKD-EPI GFR ≥60 ml/min/1.73 m2 were protective factors against CIN. Greater amounts of contrast agent and acute coronary syndrome were associated with higher CIN risk. In subjects with serum creatinine <1.0 mg/dl, GFR was more likely to be overestimated by CG, but not by CKD-EPI (sensitivity 100.0%; specificity 52.0%). CONCLUSION: In patients undergoing PCI without renal dysfunction by CG, a finding of CKD-EPI GFR <60 ml/ min/1.73 m2 was associated with a higher probability of CIN, especially among men and those with higher body mass index.

How many pygmy marmoset (Cebuella Gray, 1870) species are there? A taxonomic re-appraisal based on new molecular evidence.

The pygmy marmoset, Cebuella pygmaea, the smallest of the New World monkeys, has one of the largest geographical distributions of the Amazonian primates. Two forms have been recognized: Cebuella pygmaea pygmaea (Spix, 1823), and C. p. niveiventris Lönnberg, 1940. In this study, we investigated if the separation of pygmy marmosets into these two clades can be corroborated by molecular data. We also examine and compare coloration of the pelage in light of the new molecular results. We analyzed the mtDNA cytochrome b gene and, for the first time for any Neotropical primate, we used a reduced representation genome sequencing approach (ddRADseq) to obtain data for recently collected, geographically representative samples from the Rio Japurá, a northern tributary of the Rio Solimões and from the Javarí, Jutaí, Juruá, Madeira and Purus river basins, all tributaries south of the Solimões. We estimated phylogenies and diversification times under both maximum likelihood and Bayesian inference criteria. Our analysis showed two highly supported clades, with intraclade divergences much smaller than interclade divergences, indicating two species of Cebuella: one from the Rio Japurá and one to the south of Solimões. The interpretation of our results in light of the current taxonomy is not trivial however. Lönnberg stated that the type of Spix's pygmy marmoset (type locality 'near Tabatinga') was obtained from the south of the Solimões, and his description of the distinct niveiventris from Lago Ipixuna, south of the Solimões and several hundred kilometres east of Tabatinga, was based on a comparison with specimens that he determined as typical pygmaea that were from the upper Rio Juruá (south of the Solimões). As such it remains uncertain whether the name pygmaea should be applicable to the pygmy marmosets north of the Rio Solimões (Tabatinga type locality) or south (near Tabatinga but across the Solimões). Finally, our analysis of pelage coloration revealed three phenotypic forms: (1) south of the Rio Solimoes, (2) Eirunepé-Acre, upper Juruá basin; and (3) Japurá. More samples from both sides of Solimões in the region of Tabatinga will be necessary to ascertain the exact type locality for Spix's pygmaea and to resolve the current uncertainties surrounding pygmy marmoset taxonomy.

Exploring magnetic and imprinted cross-linked enzyme aggregates of rhamnopyranosidase in microbioreactors.

The goal of this work was the development of magnetic cross link enzyme aggregates (mCLEAs) of rhamnopyranosidase (Rhmnase), prepared by chemical cross-linking with functionalized magnetite nanoparticles for glycompounds biosynthesis in microbioreactors (specially design 24-well microplate and mini-packed bed). Rhamnopyranosidase (EC number 3.2.1.40) present high potential in glycocompounds production, with applications in food and pharmaceutical industries. The influence of precipitants, cross-linkers, temperature and time on (m)CLEAs@Rhmnase development were optimized. Biocatalyst activity was accessed in the hydrolysis of 4',5,7-trihydroxyflavanone-7-rhamnoglucoside and kinetic constants in the deglycosylation reaction were evaluated. Rhmnase operational stability was enhanced in mCLEAs, retaining almost 90% initial activity after 7 cycles of 24 h each. In a mini-packed bed bioreactor a maximum volumetric productivity of 140 µmol/L.h was attained. In this bioreactor the operational stability of mCLEAs@Rhmnase were evaluated at a flow rate of 5 mL/h during 5 days and a residual activity of 95% was observed.

A racionalização do espaço como dispositivo da educação superior / Rationalization of space as a device for higher education / La racionalización del espacio como dispositivo de la educación superior

Resumo: Este artigo destaca a racionalização do espaço como elemento significativo da Educação Superior a partir do currículo de um curso de Licenciatura em Educação Física de uma instituição privada de ensino. Por transmitir significados, determinar e separar os locais nos quais os indivíduos circulam e convivem, nele se produzem discursos e práticas culturais que introduzem novas formas de regulação dos sujeitos, constituindo estratégias de subjetivação. Os dados produzidos por meio de observações sistemáticas foram analisados mediante a noção de governamentalidade, entendida por Michel Foucault como a arte de governo de si e dos outros. Os resultados indicam que são realizados investimentos estratégicos em práticas culturais específicas com a finalidade de regular e validar formas de viver afeitas a algumas características do neoliberalismo globalizado como consumismo, espetáculo e volatilidade. (AU)

Abstract: This article discusses rationalization of space as a meaningful element for higher education on the Physical Education curriculum of a private school. Since it conveys meaning and determines and separates the places where people live and circulate, discourses and cultural practices are produced in it that introduce new forms for regulating subjects, which constitute subjectivation strategies. Data produced by systematic observations were analyzed under the notion of governmentality, understood by Michel Foucault as the art of governing self and others. The results indicate that strategic investments are made in specific cultural practices in order to regulate and validate forms of living that are close to some features of globalized neoliberalism such as consumerism, spectacle and volatility.

Improved thermostable polyvinyl alcohol electrospun nanofibers with entangled naringinase used in a novel mini-packed bed reactor.

Polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) electrospun nanofibers were produced using an electrospinning technique. Key parameters (e.g. collectors, distance from needle tip to collector, among others) that influence the structure and morphology of fibers were optimized. The naringinase entrapped in PVA nanofibers retained over 100% of its initial activity after 212h of operation, at 25°C. Chemical crosslinking with several boronic acids further increased the hydrolysis temperature (up to 85°C) and yielded nanofibers with thermal stability up to 121°C. A mini packed bed reactor (PBR) developed to establish the feasibility for continuous enzymatic operation, ran for 16days at 45°C. Highest naringenin biosynthesis was attained at a flow rate of 10mLh(-1). Highest volumetric (78molL(-1)h(-1)) and specific (26molh(-1)genzyme(-1)) productivities were attained at 30mLh(-1). The activity of NGase in electrospun nanofibers remained constant for almost 16days of operation at 10mLh(-1).

In vitro photodynamic inactivation of Sporothrix schenckii complex species.

Photodynamic therapy has been applied successfully against cutaneous and subcutaneous mycoses. We applied methylene blue as a photosensitizing agent and light emitting diode (InGaAlP) against Sporothrix schenckii complex species in an in vitro assay. The viability of the conidia was determined by counting colony-forming units. Methylene blue in conjunction with laser irradiation was able to inhibit the growth of all tested samples. The in vitro inhibition of Sporothrix spp. isolates by laser light deserves in vivo experimental and clinical studies since it may be a promising treatment for cutaneous and subcutaneous sporotrichosis.

Operational stability of naringinase PVA lens-shaped microparticles in batch stirred reactors and mini packed bed reactors-one step closer to industry.

The immobilization of naringinase in PVA lens-shaped particles, a cheap and biocompatible hydrogel was shown to provide an effective biocatalyst for naringin hydrolysis, an appealing reaction in the food and pharmaceutical industries. The present work addresses the operational stability and scale-up of the bioconversion system, in various types of reactors, namely shaken microtiter plates (volume ⩽ 2 mL), batch stirred tank reactors (volume <400 mL) and a packed-bed reactor (PBR, 6.8 mL). Consecutive batch runs were performed with the shaken/stirred vessels, with reproducible and encouraging results, related to operational stability. The PBR was used to establish the feasibility for continuous operation, running continuously for 54 days at 45°C. The biocatalyst activity remained constant for 40 days of continuous operation. The averaged specific productivity was 9.07 mmol h(-1) g enzyme(-1) and the half-life of 48 days.

Food quality in the late postoperative period of bariatric surgery: an evaluation using the bariatric food pyramid.

Bariatric surgery is an effective intervention in the treatment of obesity, but lifestyle and diet should be monitored after this procedure to ensure success. The Bariatric Food Pyramid was created basing on long-term nutritional care that proposes a standard of healthy living and eating habits considering gastric capacity and specific nutritional needs. The purpose of the current study is to evaluate the life habits and diet quality of patients who have undergone bariatric surgery (who have been recovering for at least 6 months) based on the specific food pyramid. Retrospective data analysis was performed using medical records of patients who had been followed for at least 6 months after bariatric surgery. The following data were collected from patient records: age, gender, education level (years), BMI (preoperative and postoperative), percentage of excess weight loss (EWL) relative to the time of surgery, frequency of physical activity, use of nutritional supplements, usual dietary intake history, and fluid intake. Results were analyzed using descriptive statistics. We evaluated 172 patient records. In this study, there was a low prevalence of physical activity, use of vitamin-mineral supplements, and water intake. There also was low consumption of protein, fruit, vegetables, and vegetable oils. In addition, intake of carbohydrates, sugars, and fats were higher than the recommendations established by the pyramid. The results indicate that patients who have undergone bariatric surgery have an inadequate diet according to food evaluation with the specific pyramid. In the long term, this may lead to weight gain and vitamin and mineral deficiencies.

[Nutritional consultations frequency after bariatric surgery]. / Avaliação da frequência em consultas nutricionais dos pacientes após cirurgia bariátrica.

BACKGROUND: With the growth of surgical interventions to reduce obesity, there is a necessity of a periodic nutritional attendance at long term to ensure the nutritional status of the patients. AIM: To assess the adherence to the periodic nutritional attendance of patients undergoing bariatric surgery. METHODS: Data were collected from registration forms of a nutrition service from patients who underwent bariatric surgery between 2001 and 2008. RESULTS: Were evaluated 469 registration forms, of which 83% corresponded to female and 16.8% to male, with a mean age of 38.2 ± 12.03 years. The attendance showed an average of 2.04 ± 0.77 pre-operatively queries and 3.4 ± 9.19 post-operative queries and there was progressive reduction in assiduity of these patients in surgical follow-up. CONCLUSION: There was a high dropout of the patients in post-operative nutritional attendance, being primarily concerned about the high dropout after two years of surgery; this tendency may result in metabolic complications and regain of lost weight.
