The implications of cleft lip and palate in a child's life go beyond the aesthetic and functional, psychosocial problems may lead not only to her but for the whole family. A satisfactory fitting process depends more on how the family will react and their attitudes, than the presence of the anomaly. The rehabilitation process is experienced by the child and family, and the performance of the Nursing Team happens with them during this journey. The nursing staff participates in training the family for the care, since your formation is also focused on the education of those who attend. This study aims to understand the family's experience across the care of children with cleft lip and palate. This is a clinical-qualitative research and to work with the data used the research narrative. Constitute subjects of the study families of children with cleft lip and palate with up to 3 years old. The data analysis allowed apprehend four themes. Accept and affirm the condition: the news of the presence of cleft lip and palate generates big impact and is a difficult time that the family requires mobilization and adaptation of feelings that result in action to welcome and accept the child. Treading the rehabilitation process: this process begins soon after birth of the child, stretching as its growth, it is long, gradual, exhausting, and suffered implies breaking the routine, trip to the specialist center, extra expenses, surgical procedures, diets, restrictions and cautions. Learn, experiment and adapt care: care of the child with cleft is built through constant experiment. Try positions for feeding, the bottles, the speed of feeding, the formula. In this movement the family adapts and customizes the care to meet the best possible way the needs of your child, and thus the dynamics of everyday life learns to care. Require Informational and Emotional Support: in their trajectory family suffers from lack of supporting information by health professionals, the public and media, feels lonely when they need to find answers for themselves. It is hoped that the discussion of this topic may contribute to understanding the experience of families across the care of children with cleft and enables meet their needs, identify demands and accompanying guidance for the improvement of care provided by health professionals to these families.

This study addresses the development of Higher Psychological Functions of children aged zero to three years, specifically regarding attention and memory, and its relationship with education in daycare centers. The research question was: What concepts of the Historical- Cultural Theory underlie the need to potentialize the development of Higher Psychological Functions regarding attention and memory in children aged zero to three years in daycare centers? The objective of the study is: to identify Historical-Cultural Theory concepts that can support teaching activities for children aged zero to three years for developing higher psychological functions regarding attention and memory. The research was founded on dialectical and historical materialism and historical-cultural methods. The study methodology was based on bibliographic research, considered important to classify the study subject that was dispersed in several bibliographies. The methodological procedures were based on bibliographic reading recognition; key information localization; choosing bibliographies closer to the research object; and the final reading to achieve the proposed objectives. The result analysis shows concepts that can support teaching activities for developing Higher Psychological Functions in children aged zero to three years, such as cultural development, the main activity, mediation and the zone of proximal development. The results confirm that the development of infants is not universal and does not solely depend on the biological basis of human development. Social relationships are crucial to human development. School education is fundamentally responsible for the success of learning processes and child development nowadays, therefore, such learning must be intentional and planned, taking into account the specificities of child development, and also provide safe environmental conditions and varied cultural and intellectual experiences to promote mental development of children aged zero to three years in order to stimulate them. Higher Psychological Functions regarding Attention and Memory do not develop fully in the first year of life, however, intentional learning is required for significant psychological development. Introducing learning activities at an early age are the basis for subsequent complex psychological developments.

This study investigates the role of new and recent CNPq agency as advisor and financier of new policies and practices of research in our country based on the analysis of notices published by that body in the period 2004-2011 and its relationship with economic policy identity adopted in Brazil since the 2000s. The aim of this study is to identify the factors that produced this paradigm shift in research funding from CNPq seeking to establish the possible mediations between the economic policy adopted in Brazil from the 1990s and the policy choices made in managements FHC (1995 -2002) and Lula (2003-2010) and identify the role that this agency complies with public policy agenda in the country's productive. The methodology used was the literature and documents, having as the main primary legislation with emphasis on the laws 11.196/05 (Lei do Bem) and 10.973/04 (Law of Technological Innovation), the creation of the Science Sector Funds and Technology (1999); books or memories of the four National Conferences on Science, Technology and Innovation (1985, 2002, 2005 and 2010), the Master Plan for Reforming the State, the guidelines of the Industrial, Technological and Foreign Trade (PITCE), published in 2003, the Productive Development Policy (PDP), 2008, the Plan of Action for Science, Technology and Innovation (2007-2010), the edicts research support from CNPq published between 2004-2011 (422 calls) and Institutional Management Reports CNPq period 2004-2011. We hypothesized that the policy adopted by CNPq notices from the year 2000 can be analyzed based on economic and political reforms that the world and Brazil are suffering from the 1990s, mediated by interim measures, laws and ordinances materialize the country's entry in this circuit financial valuation in order to make the country attractive from the standpoint of economic and legal foreign investment. The empirical indicated that from the 2000s, with a strong emphasis between the years 2003-2004, there is a radical change in the policy of public funding of research from CNPq, expressed by policy notices, which is characterized: by induction applied research and the development of technological research and innovation with strong potential for immediate application to the market; mediated by academic evaluation processes extremely hard, and short-prazistas as requiring the production of knowledge preset time at the time of contracting the projects strong hierarchy between areas of knowledge. The study indicated that the options were the economic policy of the country which have produced changes in the paradigm of public funding of research from CNPq. While Cardoso prioritized during the opening of the economy to the international market that demanded political and legal preparation for the attraction of foreign direct investment, seeking to show the country how great square stock exchange, ie, the option to turn the country into a platform for emerging financial valuation and the decline of productive investment in the country conditioned the extraction of real income of society and constraining our capacity for growth, investment, employment generation and income. Analyses of Brazilian economic policy in FHC and Lula indicate that there was a continuity and even its intensification. Driven by a new growth agenda of the country, given the international and political alliances with national business, the Lula government opted to maintain the agenda of orthodox economic management, but look for alternatives brought growth and expansion of productive investments long term. His political project initiated in 2003 was expressed in a more fully the implementation of a new industrial policy. Were these policy options that distinguish, in part, the government of his predecessor, especially in the educational field: expansion of the public university structure by physical expansion of IFES and the vacancies in the program MEETING, ProUni and UAB; regarding your collection practical economic policy, resumed the National Industrial Policy (PITCE and PDP) with a focus on innovation and cooperative relationship between state-university-market. This new place CNPq gave it strategic importance in the construction of a national pact between university-State market (financial capital), working in the training of human resources for promotion of various types and levels of scholarships, increasing grants for researchers in companies, continuous increase of its budget for scholarships postgraduate, publishing notices to fostering individual projects, groups or thematic networks of scientific and technological support, expansion and dissemination of new programs to assist these guidelines, all this combined a new form of financing that has to induce new practices for the development of research and knowledge production in universities with strong budgetary hierarchy between areas of knowledge.

The drug delivery systems (DDS) shows several advantages when compared with traditional release systems, such as allowing the employment of lower plasmatic concentrations of drug, having greater efficiency, and minimizing side effects. The improvement of drug delivery depends strictly on the choice of an adequate support allowing to effectively controlling the drug release. All systems use a physical or chemical barrier that control the speedy of release and ensure the desired doses. In this sense, the use of biopolymers and some inorganic hybrid materials as a solid support, such as layered doubles hydroxides (LDH), is of great interest, due to biocompatibility and biodegradability. In this study a series of distinct bionanocomposites were developed and their properties and potential to be used as drug delivery systems explored, creating complexes with high applicability. Gastroresistant and mucoadhesive chitosan-pectin beads for mesalazine release were synthesized in pure form or intercalated LDH compounds, aiming to simulate the in vivo conditions. Another bionanocomposite was also synthesized to be used as a drug carrier consisting of a blend of alginate polysaccharide and magnetic and graphite nanoparticles, in two different pharmaceutical forms: beads and films. This work evaluated the efficacy of these new matrices when the associate drug is previously immobilized on a LDH-based inorganic solid. The compositional and structural characterizations of all these bionanocomposites allowed to conclude that there was an intercalation of the drugs between the LDH layers were satisfactorily, suggesting a compatibility of the system. The physical properties of the beads and films, such as water uptake, encapsulation efficiency, control release, and mechanical properties, were improved when hybridized with the nanoparticles. These results indicate that the bionanocomposites synthesized are promising to further use in drug delivery systems and other substances, exhibiting high applicability in several areas, from biomedicine to agriculture, for example, in the control of fertilizer or herbicides release.

Cette étude a pour objet principal la contribution de l‟Initiation Scientifique (Iniciação Científica) pour la formation de l‟élève et les conséquences résultant des changements des activités de recherche qui ont engendré une nouvelle pratique pour le quotidien des professeurs et des étudiants de l‟université publique. L‟objectif général est donc d‟analyser cette pratique de l‟Initiation Scientifique dans le contexte de l‟éducation supérieur au Brésil. L‟objectif spécifique est d‟identifier les éléments capables d‟être considérés comme les conséquences de l‟internalisation et de la naturalisation des changements émanant de l‟expansion de l‟enseignement supérieur. Des professeurs et des étudiants de plusieurs cours d‟une université publique de l‟état du Paraná ont participé à cette étude à travers divers témoignages. Sachant que chacun de ces groupes possèdent une spécifité, nous avons cherché à exprimer leurs expectatives concernant le cours et la vie académique, leur forme d‟organisation pour les études et pour la production scientifique, ainsi que les conséquences de leurs choix pour d‟autres secteurs de la vie. De manière générale, l‟étude se justifie en raison de l‟importance du thème dans le contexte actuel de l‟expansion de l‟éducation supérieure au Brésil. Nous pouvons constater que la pratique universitaire concernant le Programme d‟Initiation Scientifique montre une nouvelle tendance pour la formation des étudiants de licence dont le but est de promouvoir l‟enrichissement du curriculum en ligne lattes en tant que forme d‟insertion ou de permanence pour des postes où le marché de travail est très concurrencé et particulièrement ceux appartenant au domaine de la vie académique. Cette tendance doit être comprise en tant que partie d‟un procès historique marqué par les contradictions, mais aussi par les permissions et adéquations aux politiques publiques qui dirigent l‟université publique brésilienne.

The recent social development policies are marked by great challenges and have strained the state structure to respond according to new arrangements, requiring, among many institutional experimentations, new forms of coordination between government sectors. In this context, the social development policies come from the crossing of economic development strategies with the strategies of social policies. This is the same movement that has led to the emergence of intersectoriality as a principle key of the recent social programs, especially the efforts aimed at combating poverty. Intersectoriality has been disseminated as a task to be shared federally. We study the Bolsa Família Program PBF as case, demonstrating the main features of the construction of it intersectoriality. As a object, it was decided that the center of the analysis would be the Federal Government, understanding that this assumes a fundamental role in the structure and forms of intersectoriality that characterize the PBF, and noted that his performance in this subject has been poorly studied by Brazilian literature (which, in general, to analyze from the local implementation of PBF). The research findings point to the presence of a favorable environment for intersectoral work at the federal level, leading to complex arrangements of articulation and coordination. Intersectoriality is here analyzed from the roles: 1) the unified registry, 2) the supplementary programs to PBF, 3) the management activities of the conditionalities of the program, 4) the collegiate agencies and multilateral coordination environments, 5) of the politicization of public administration and central delegation; 6) of bureaucracies and their networks; 7) the creation of intermediary agency intragovernmental coordination; 8) and the profile presidential and the coalitional presidentialism consequences on government activities.

Aphids (Hemiptera: Aphidoidea) are insects considered as pests in many crops. Acyrthosiphon pisum, Aphis craccivora and Therioaphis trifolii f. maculata, occur often in alfalfa crops (Medicago sativa) in Brazil, causing direct and indirect damage to the plants. In this study designed to determine the seasonal fluctuation of aphids and their predators in alfalfa crop and its relationships with climatic variables by canonical correspondence analysis; to verify if there is in laboratory selectivity predators feeding, Cycloneda sanguinea, Harmonia axyrids and Hippodamia convergens for aphid A. pisum, A. craccivora and T. trifolli f. maculata to establish their predators in field culture, as well as to compare the various predators, as their efficiency in preying upon aphids using the serological technique. This technique is based on reactions such as antigen / antibody where the antibodies are obtained for the pest of interest and how antigens are used on many pest consumers. The gathering of aphids and their predators were conducted from August 2011 to July 2012 in experimental fields of alfalfa Crioula located at the Embrapa Unit, São Carlos SP. Acyrthosiphon pisum was the predominant aphid in the culture during the study period. Considering all the species, the highest population peak was observed in March/2012 and the lower in January/2012. According to canonical correspondence analysis, none of the environmental variables influenced significantly the seasonal fluctuation of aphids. Regarding the predators, 2.161 specimens were collected including insects and spiders. Among the insects the following families: Coccinellidae, Carabidae, Nabidae, Syrphidae, Dolichopodidae, Geocoridae, Reduviidae, Pentatomidae, Chrysopidae and Dermaptera. Among the spiders, Salticidae, Thomisidae; Lycosidae; Ctenidae; Nephilidae; Araneidae; xi Sparassidae; Theridiidae; Pholcidae; Trocantheriidae; Lymphidae and Sicariidae ocurred. The coccinellids were the most abundant insects and Harmonia axyridis was the most abundant species. It was also observed that the population of aphids and coccinellids follow the typical pattern of predator-prey relationship. The presence of natural enemies and the management of cutting the alfalfa influenced the dynamics of aphid populations. According to the results of the serological tests of all predators tested, 508 reacted with any of the antisera, resulting in 23,5% of positive results. Heterologous positive reactions were recorded with predators stored in a freezer at -2 °C for over a year showing that freezing does not affect the results of serological reactions. Syrphid and chrysopids were the predators with the highest percentage of positive serological reactions. The food preference tests in the laboratory showed that the coccinellids C. sanguinea, H. axyridis and H. convergens have a preference for A. craccivora when one compare to other species of aphids offered

In this work, were studied nanoparticles colloidal systems ZrO2 were using coarse grained models in order to observe the influence of the interaction potential between nanoparticles and the solvents in the system coloidal structure at chemical equilibrium. The molecular dynamics (MD) method was applied to propagate the system trajectories from an optimized initial structure. The interaction energy values allowed the evaluate of which systems reached the colloidal stability and which converged to aggregates with different morphologies just by self-organization mechanisms. The analysis based of the radial distribution function allowed us to relating the nanoparticles superficial faces with the morphologies of aggregates for the correlations peak positions. The radial pair distribution plots and the average of interaction energy determined the interaction potential effect of the solvent in the colloidal systems structure at equilibrium. The colloidal stability was favored when the interaction potential of nanoparticles was equivalent to the interaction potential of the solvent, i.e., almost attractive nanoparticles in almost attractive solvent and attractive nanoparticles in attractive solvents. In other hand, the variation of solvent s interaction potential, using almost attractive nanoparticles in attractive solvent and attractive nanoparticles in almost attractive solvent, leaded systems to form nanoparticles aggregates with different morphologies, depending on the interaction between nanoparticles. Almost attractive nanoparticles formed a nanobunch, whereas attractive nanoparticles formed a nanorod. Gibbs energy of the nanoparticles aggregation process in each system was calculated, which indicated concordance between the thermodynamic of the aggregation process or of colloidal stabilization and the equilibrium systems obtained by molecular dynamic.

The drug issue today has been represented by an alarming debate characterized by the disqualification of many people who use those substances. The discussion, commonly, is focused on problematizations around a poor youth, on which there is an imbued approach by lack, by criminalization or by the concentration of attention on fighting products, losing sight of the sociocultural details of their uses. From a perspective contrary to the simplistic association between poor youngsters and drug use, it was aimed to know the life histories of young residents of a medium-sized city in the interior of Sao Paulo, Sao Carlos (SP), who use illicit drugs and consider that they need assistance in this using, seeking to identify their personal and social networks, formal and informal, that this population has accessed for assistance regarding such use, or even networks that are imposed into their lives. As a methodological resource, it was performed a monitoring of two young participants from previous activities of projects connected to the University coming from teaching, research and extension nature, resuming previously established contacts and following them up for a period of one year through an ethnographic analysis of field data, achieved through the immersion in their daily lives and the writing of field diaries to reflect on that reality. We also sought to access the agents cited by youngsters as present on their networks, to conduct semi-structured interviews with them. At last categories of analysis to be discussed were raised, according to the theoretical and methodological assumptions of Social Occupational Therapy, Sociology and Anthropology. The results showed the importance of these networks in the aid facing difficult situations due to the use of drugs, especially those from informal nature. We emphasize the aid granted to the people belonging to religious temples however this was not found to be related to attachment to divinities, a fact that puts in check speeches about the "salvation" of drug users by faith. Networks of formal stamp showed "just" in the modalities of admission via therapeutic community and containment through a regional police station. Thus recognizing that the study of networks can point out to potential ways of approach to the drug phenomenon, we hope to contribute with assumptions for the formulation of more consistent with reality public policies, which can effectively act as social supports in the life of those youngsters.

This paper seeks to find in manga (japonese comic books) published in Brazil, references to pop and popular culture of Japan that adds to them encyclopedic features. Assumptions initially depart from recent studies in science, technology and society (STS) that seeks to launch new looks for science and research, indicating that they can be carried in places and through different means. We will seek aid in theories of russian philosopher Mikhail Bakhtin about the studies on the speech genres, trying to find what is peculiar to the manga compared to other forms of comics, and the studies of dialogism, aimed at finding the different voices in the creation of manga and Japanese manga published in Brazil. Through these theoretical and methodological precepts of Bakhtin and studies in science, technology and society, we expect to find in manga published in Brazil, originally published from 2000, and then selecting those whose narratives are closer to everyday topics and or historical elements of its constitution as generic themes, imagery and verbal statements, footnotes, glossaries information in, suggesting references to japonese popular culture and pop. We expect this research to contribute to studies on the manifestations of language as well as studies on STS related mainly in cultural communication.

This study aimed to analyze the structural behavior of a beam-column connection with embedded steel member for precast concrete with no current use still in Brazil. Based on the literature review about hidden corbels found in international technical references, a type of hidden corbel with embedded steel section (so called billet) was selected for this research. Although there are many different analytical models for the design of the billet within the available technical literature, the focus of this research was on the revised models found in the most recent design manuals PCI (2010) and FIB (2011). In addition to the analytical study an experimental investigation was conducted, wherein isolated column members with billet corbels were tested primarily to a full scale test of a sub-frame with two beams six meters long and with a central column assembled in cruciform shape. For the isolated model, named PI Model (Isolated steel corbel), the behavior of the steel corbel and its interaction with the column were evaluated. For the full scale test, named LI Model (connection zone model), the behavior of the connection zone and the behavior of the beam were studied interacting together. For both the theoretical and the experimental studies, the selected billet consisted of a rectangular hollow section of 200 mm x 100 mm x 10 mm in height, width and thickness, respectively. For the PI Model test, the billet showed a rigid behavior and it was capable of resist an applied load of 700 kN with no damage within the concrete of the column. For the case of LI Model, the experimental study analyzed the behavior of the whole connection zone, comprising both the steel corbel and the end of the beam near the corbel. For this case, the connection behaved as rigid until the applied shear force at the connection reached between 239,5 kN and 238,3 kN, for which the flexural stiffness of the connection acted as rigid, with fixity factors of 1.0 and 0.96, for the left and right connections, respectively. The failure of the model occurred at the cast in place topping of the composite beam when the shear force reached 473.5 kN. The comparison between the experimental results with the theoretical values demonstrated that the isolate billet showed compatible resistance with the expected but that the region of the beam top end showed premature failure due to lack of reinforcement in the region of the end of the beam. It is believed that this effect occurred because of the fact that the detailing followed from studies conducted in the UK is suitable for hinged connections while the connection analyzed in this research comprised of continuous negative reinforcing bars passing through the columns within the cast in place topping of the composite precast beam. Finally, this study presents further recommendations for improvements of the reinforcement detailing of the precast beam.

Childhood cancer is a chronic disease of permanent and long lasting. It is a condition considered rare, when compared to adults, representing 0.5% to 3% of malignant tumors. When it affects the household, their routine undergoes significant changes, either by hospitalization or treatment process. In the redimensioning the family to meet the needs of child care, family members still encounter the difficult task of establishing communication with the child about his disease, requiring the reflection and support facility to cope with the disease. This manner, the present study aimed to know how to the family communicates with the child about cancer. This is a qualitative study, directed by symbolic interactionism as theoretical reference and thematic content analysis as a methodological reference. The data were collected through semi-structure interviews with families of children with cancer, who were in treatment for at least three months in a health care institution in the state of Minas Gerais. The analysis of data emerged from dynamically interconnected themes and categories, which concluded that family to establish communication with the child about his disease adopts a protectionist language. The disease stigma associated with informational support that the family receives health professionals and members of the family, makes the child's family choose words to give meaning to change in routine. This manner, the family, to dialogue with the child, no pervades the severity of the disease. The interaction that occurs in the subsystem and system family provides an extra subsidy that directly interferes with the meanings attributed by families and affect their actions. Even without exposing the disease severity , the family does not fail to show for the child the need to perform treatment for their rehabilitation, makes it so that the child collaborate during the procedures. The family believes that the transmission of messages of overcoming and optimism helps the child to overcome the disease.

The aim of this study was to understand, from the experience of four young people who at some point in research called themselves transvestites , residing in São Carlos (SP), the main techniques and strategies used by them for the management and manipulation of their own characteristics regarding their body, subjectivity and identity, in order to participate in certain spaces of sociability, focusing on family contexts, formal education institutions and also prostitution. The work has been organized into four sections. Initially, it introduces an historical debate and academic production about the topic related to gender and sexuality, then it addresses entrance to the search field, from ethnographic contributions and, finally, to contextualize the territories where the research took place. The second section considers the multiplicity of ways to consider and to construct signs of what is considered feminine in bodies assigned as male. Additionally, it presents the history of each interlocutor of this research, trying to point out their unique experiences in these body, subjective and identity building processes. In the third section, we discuss the different techniques and strategies used by them to participate in different contexts such as family, school and prostitution, and how these relations are built depending on the persons involved, as well as their interests and desires. And lastly, contextualizes the propositions of social occupational therapy and its possible implications in everyday life of the individuals in their territories belonging, pointing out how the circulation of these young people in their territories have repercussions on the levels of insertion and restriction, allowing or not their existences in different spaces. It is believed that this dissertation contributes, beyond the multiplicity of forms of construction and understanding bodies, subjectivities and transvestites identities, with a dialogue among the possible links between social occupational therapy and circulation of individuals in their territories belonging.

During all life we test and are tested, in many contexts and situations and with many purposes. (MCNAMARA, 2000) One of the most famous tests is the educational one, which can be internal, prepared and applied by the teacher of the subject, or can be external, designed by an expert and applied to students. About external tests, nowadays, in Brazil we have Exame Nacional do Ensino Médio (ENEM). This exam was first applied in 1998 with performance function, to evaluate students at the end of basic education. In 2010, ENEM was changed and one of the changes was the insertion of English language test. The English test part is composed of five multiple choice questions of text comprehension. At this moment, ENEM became a high stake exam in Brazilian context due to its multiple functions: entrance exam, or part of it, in federal universities; way of selection for private universities; and it also continued to be a performance test. As a consequence, the number of people applying the exam grew, and in 2012 it was taken by more than five millions of people. Thus, according to Scaramucci (2010), this exam tends to have consequences in English teaching and learning and in people‟s lives. Therefore, our focus in this study is on the insertion of the English test in ENEM and its implications, which can be positive or negative about English and its subject. It is important to consider the importance of knowing the English language nowadays, because of its hegemony in the world, due to political and social importance of countries where it is spoken. (RAJAGOPALAN, 2010) By this way, this dissertation has the objective of presenting a master research whose focus is discovering and analyzing the social initial impact caused by the insertion of English in the exam, by data collected among students and teachers, all of them involved with studying or preparing students for the exam. This study is qualitative, without testing ready hypothesis, but intending to find out what students and teachers think about ENEM and, mainly, about the English language. The participants of this research project are students and teachers of the last year of high school and from a preparatory course for entrance exam. All of them took ENEM in 2011. Data was collected using questionnaires and interviews with students and teachers of one school and one preparatory course in a city of São Paulo state. An initial impact could be evidenced from data analysis, showing the exam relevance to society and to Language education at regular schools. However, even though the English test in ENEM has been recently applied to students, some consequences are notable and considerable. The analysis showed both external and internal classroom consequences and the opinion of people involved with the exam about ENEM English questions mainly. We believe that the impact will be more evident in some years when the exam is effectively established and teachers are familiar with its format and its construct

It is known that the observation of the urinary elimination of child in routine pediatric clinic helps identify human responses and thereby prevent complications present and future. It can be inferred that the analysis of the nurse on the urinary elimination of child and accuracy in the preparation of nursing diagnoses (ND) is of fundamental importance. With respect to Impaired Urinary Elimination (IUE) NANDA- I, Inc, it may be identified the possibility of gaps, especially for infants with disorders urinary elimination, insofar as this population has particulars on how exhibit this problem. Thus, this study was aimed at making the concept analysis, validation by experts and observation of the proposed Impaired Urinary Elimination DE by NANDA- I, Inc. This is a descriptive study of validation of nursing diagnoses, based on the model proposed by Hoskins, but with adaptations. For the development of the concept analysis was performed a literature review in the databases LILACS, PubMed, CINAHL, and Cochrane Library, trying to select studies that founding the concept analysis based on the model of Walker and Avant, which proposes an investigation of the basic elements of an concept developed in eight steps. It were eligible 25 studies to conduct the concept analysis . To perform the analysis of all elements of diagnosis, it were also consulted 2 books of Pediatric Urology, 2 books on human physiology and 2 dictionaries of medical terms. The validation was performed by experts based on validation by consensus, which is a process whereby it is obtained the opinion or agreement between the author and a group of at least three experts. Interview was also conducted with 10 accounted for infants with urinary changes regarding the presence of the defining characteristics identified in concept analysis. As a result of CA it was identified that the concept was used IUE more frequently by medicine and its specialties and in a quantity less expressive by nursing. The defining attributes identified were: fever, urinary retention, weak urinary stream, inconsolable crying, crying during urination, irritability, hematuria, fetid urine, dysuria perception by parents and urination drip, among others. Among the antecedents identified are: urinary tract dilatation, hydronephrosis, genitourinary malformations, pyelonephritis, obstructive uropathy, urinary tract infection, vesicoureteral reflux, among others. The main effects were: weight loss, renal failure, acute renal parenchyma, growth deficiency and decreased renal function. From the data of CA it were suggested changes in wording of dysuria and DC including new DC. The proposed amendments after AC were analyzed by 10 experts. For selection and scoring of the experts it was used the scale proposed by Fehring in which the experts must reach at least 5 points. Of the 10 selected expert, 60% achieved a score of 5 to 7 points and 40% reached a score of 10 to 14 points. As a result of this step, among the DC proposed by NANDA I, Inc, it were validated urinary retention and dysuria . It was proposed a new wording for dysuria defining characteristic, namely, dysuria (in infants, crying when urinating or reporting parental perception of dysuria in infants). From the new proposed DC it were validated hematuria, fetid urine, anuria, oliguria, irritability and fever. It have also been suggested new DC by the experts. Regarding Factors Related (FR), from those proposed by NANDA-I, Inc just FR multiple causes has not been validated. The clinical stage was composed of a sample of 10 infants, 5 boys and 5 girls, 40% aged 1-3 months, 20% at age 5-7 months and 40% at age 8 to 12 months. The most part of medical diagnoses found was that of Urinary Tract Infection (UTI). The DC found most frequently were: fever (80%), crying during urination (60%), strain during urination (60%) and oliguria (50%). The results can contribute to improving the care of infants presenting dysfunction in the elimination of urine, leading to appropriate interventions in this population and promoting a safe care by seeking satisfactory results.

An alternative of renewable fuel is the anhydrous ethanol from biomass. Its production has to aim the minimum consumption of hydric and energetic resources. The bottleneck of the process is located in the downstream that requires technological development with thermodynamics reasoning. This master s degree seeks to address this aspect by studying the dehydration of ethanol by extractive distillation making use of liquid solvent glycerol, salts of potassium acetate and calcium chloride, or both kinds of resources. These resources, called separation agents, can "break" the barrier of azeotropy and have advantages such as no top product contamination and lower energy consumption. The rectification column plus the conventional dehydration system are replaced by a single extractive distillation column which is itself the rectification column, adding the separating agents in the reflux stream. The simulation is performed in steady state using a rigorous model for calculating the column. For non-electrolytic systems UNIFAC model was used, and for systems involving electrolytes UNIFAC model with the addition of the Debye-Hückel term and UNIFAC-Dortmund model. Maximum values for the mean of absolute deviations of temperature and of ethanol molar fraction in vapor phase were 5,51 K and 0,0646 respectively. Though, it was observed that the deviations were higher in the region of least ethanol concentration. The simulation of extractive column with glycerol converged generating anhydrous ethanol following the specification, being a proof of the concept that the application of the proposed process was successful. The simulation of the saline extractive distillation presented difficulties of convergence which will need to be studied in future works.

Workers quality of life is a very important aspect to be considered by both health professionals and executives and the Yoga practice can contribute in this context. Therefore the aim of this study is to identify the effects of a Yoga intervention program onpostural control and well-being of healthy workers.The effects of Yoga on different physical and mental health conditions werereviewed in the first part of thisstudy. Then an experimental study was conducted with twenty-four healthy workers from the same company as volunteers. Two groups were distinguished, one as experimental group, which engaged in a program of 16 Yoga classes (each class with 60 minutes of duration) at the company twice a week, and the other as control group.The effects of Yoga practice were evaluated through the Nordic Musculoskeletal Questionnaire and Work & Well-Being Survey Questionnaire (UWES 17) . The degree of postural stability was evaluated by a force plate and the center of pressure was the studied variable. After the intervention only the experimental group showed significantly improvements in musculoskeletal conditions and working engagement. Additionally significantly lower oscillation areas and center of pressure mean velocities were observed only for the experimental group. We conclude that the Yoga practice has improved musculoskeletal complaints and wellness in the workplace, as well as the sensory integration of the healthy workers.

Literature presents that students with Down Syndrome (DS) learn to write and read in a slower pace than students without the disability. From these considerations, the present work considers the following question: to what extent the proposition and application of stimulator activities of the reading and writing, based on Emília Ferreiro theory, about the four levels of writing develops and enhances the knowledge of a young DS group? To answer this question, the present study was divided into two stages. In Stage one the goal was to conduct a survey of Dissertations, Theses and Articles (national and international) concerning the DS thematic, focusing on reading, writing and literacy in the period from 2001 to 2011. Bibliographic research was used. The tools used for search were: Portal Capes, SciELo, Google Scholar e Journal Portal Capes. In short, the life sciences showed a large concentration of Dissertations, Theses and Articles in Biological area, followed by the Humanities. In Stage two the goals was to investigate the acquisition of reading and writing of a young DS group from a specialized institution, checking on what level of writing and reading it was. The case study had six young DS participants, being two of the male gender and four of the female. Fictitious names were used to preserve their identity. The tools used for the research were: notes of interventions; document of activities developed on week; document of students attendance; Test of the 4 words and one phrase ; An adapted test from a new magazine (Test of reading); Literacy Pre-syllabic Program; Literacy Syllabic Program; and Literacy Syllabic-alphabetic Program. The materials used were assembled to provide functional support for the proposed activities. After prior approval by the Ethics Committee, the data collection was done thought three testes and a number of intervention sessions. The data was qualitatively analyzed for the identification of an evolution (or not) in writing and reading of the students. A quantitative analysis was also done trough a compilation of data about the reading aptitude of students who were in syllabic and syllabic-alphabetic level. Results were divided in three parts: writing of the name; writing of four words and a phrase; and textual reading. Fabiana regarding the writing of the name passed from syllabic level to syllabic-alphabetic; regarding the writing of four words and a phrase passed too from syllabic level to syllabic-alphabetic; regarding textual reading passed from 20% to 51% of reading units present inside the text. Raquel regarding the writing of the name and regarding the writing of four words and a phrase stayed on pre-syllabic level, showing improvement in her fine motor skills; regarding textual reading she started to identify letters A, I, O U. Lucas regarding the writing of the name and regarding the writing of four words and a phrase stayed on pre-syllabic level, but began to write down the letter A; regarding textual reading the student didn t identify any letter. Talita regarding the writing of the name passed from syllabic-alphabetic level to alphabetic; regarding the writing of four words and a phrase stayed on pre-syllabic level (initially presenting differentiation between words , with posterior differentiation between words and letters ); regarding textual reading started to recognize letter E, besides further the others that she already knew. Ricardo regarding the writing of the name and regarding of writing of four words and a phrase keep on pre-syllabic level, starting to write letter A and I; regarding textual reading on the first test identified letter A and on the final test the letters A, E, I, O and U. Rose regarding the writing of the name stayed on alphabetic level; regarding the writing of four words and a phrase passed syllabic-alphabetic level to alphabetic level; regarding textual reading improved from 51,1% to 64% the reading of the units presents inside the text. To summarize, the structure activities helped the young DS students to improve their reading and writing, given that stimulating activities of reading and writing were always concrete and/or adapted. Therefore, the students learned.

Information retrieval systems for information retrieval can occur through the search by author name, title of the work, by text words and through the theme or subject of a work. For accuracy in information search by subject, it becomes essential to use structured languages, called indexing languages, which are instruments with a view to enabling represent the contents of the collection. Thus, the theme of our research is to identify construction parameters of an instrument subject representation for information retrieval by subject in units of scientific and technical information (USTI). In this study, the units of scientific and technical information correspond to the libraries of the Federal Institute of Education, Science and Technology of São Paulo. Our research problem is characterized by the absence of social cognitive parameters for the construction of an instrument of representation of thematic information of technical and scientific areas. Identify proposed construction parameters of an instrument of thematic representation of information on the technical and scientific literature in the area of Knowledge Representation and Organization in the context of social cognitive librarian and user and the prospect of the units of scientific and technical information feds. Our overall objective was to present parameters for the construction of social cognitive instrument thematic representation of information techno-scientific areas. The specific objectives were: 1. identify the interdisciplinary Science, Technology and Society, Information Science, with emphasis on the Organization of Knowledge and Cognitive Science, to establish a collaborative dialogue in building a tool for thematic representation of information 2. present on the documentary languages, viewed as representation language for subject areas of technical and scientific information retrieval systems; 3. identify methods of construction of alphabetical indexing languages, given the technical and scientific literature in the area of Knowledge Representation and Organization in Information Science, 4. describe the context of social cognitive librarian and user units of scientific and technical information feds 5. the views of librarians and users of information units on federal technical-scientific parameters in the collaborative construction of an instrument subject representation in Science, Technology and Education, from the application of verbal protocol viewed as a qualitative methodology with sociocognitive approach. Our research is justified by the need for an indexing language for representation and retrieval of information in units of scientific and technical information to enable the correct representation of information by librarians in indexing activity and access to information for users seeking quality and specificity in recovery the information. As methodology we conducted bibliographic research on thematic Science, Technology, Society, Information Science, Cognitive Science, Knowledge Organization, Documentary Languages, Intelligence Units, Thesaurus, Federal Institute of Education. Subsequently, we apply the Protocol Verbal Group (PVG), knowing opinions of librarians and users on indicators for the construction of the instrument. The results were analyzed from grants acquired by literature accompanied by statements of participants and enabled PVG Eleven parameters indicate the collaborative construction of an instrument subject representation: 1. characterization of the user profile (target) that will make use of language learners and teachers of upper-level courses and medium 2. terms must serve the needs of representation and retrieval of information (guarantees and literary usage) 3. terms must originate in natural language and specialty (fair usage and literary) 4. terms should represent the vocabulary usage of the organization (organizational guarantee) 5. language must have both generic and specific terms; 6. language should promote control of synonyms; 7. language must identify the homonymous accordance with the use of qualifiers 8. establishment of logical-semantic relationships between terms of orders hierarchical, associative and equivalency; 9. inclusion of terms of scope notes when needed; 10. assignment of terms must be contemplating the balance between comprehensiveness and specificity achieved by the information retrieval system; 11. identification / building information retrieval system (catalog) that includes also factors such as being available online, offering reservation services online and renewal; allow viewing of information such as: cover, table of contents, introduction and full text materials contained in the collection of USTI; possess and to enable a feature suggestion terms, the timing of the search, both to fix the search expression as for the storage of subjects / search terms. This feature is important in terms of collection, aimed at updating process of language also from the user's perspective; provide and ensure accessibility of the language so that the librarian can realize the representation of information with it and from it, and allow available the accessibility of the language so that the user can perform a search by subject, for recovering useful information with it and from it. We believe that the diversity of the public pointed verbal protocols with respect to factors such as age, level of education (knowledge) and different areas of expertise, which makes us think and recommend to the IFSP USTI the construction and use of an indexing language with vocabulary arising from natural language and specialty (as in a thesaurus) but with the logical structure semantics between terms / headers from a list of subject headings, covering scope also notes that become necessary.
