The undergraduate course in Medicine at the Federal University of São Carlos has some peculiarities, which are its basic pillars: the insertion of the student into professional practice from the first year; the active methodology following a constructivist spiral that allows constant contact with the themes, through different views, leading to an intense learning process concomitant with the development of learning to learn. In addition, it seeks humanized training, seeking longitudinal contact that is closer to the patient's real needs. Given these peculiarities, this paper aims at a critical-reflective approach to debate the student's experience in with its positive and negative points. Beforehand, it can be said that the course leads to a great development of human maturity and a process of very intense reflection in the search for the best way to carry out the tasks. Therefore, it is a unique opportunity to participate in this School, building an amazing experience and differential medical knowledge.

Introduction and hypothesis Sympathetic and parasympathetic pathways of the autonomic nervous system (ANS) regulate the lower urinary tract. The aim of the present study was to synthesize the evidence regarding ANS regulation in women with urinary incontinence (UI) evaluated through heart rate variability (HRV). Methods This study followed the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guideline. Five databases were researched in April 2021 (PubMed, CINHAL, Scopus, Web of Science and Cochrane Library) and included cross-sectional studies in full-length publications in the English language. Studies assessed the HRV during bladder filling (group A) and after voiding (group B). The Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) checklist was applied for methodological quality assessment purposes. Results A total of 920 articles were identified and 5 studies were included. Most studies analyzed the HRV by linear indexes. Studies from group A (n = 2) presented fair methodological quality; one study from group B (n = 3) showed fair methodological quality (Im et al. Korean J Urol. 51:183, 2010) whereas the others presented high methodological quality. One study from group A found an increase in both modulations between women with overactive bladder (OAB) versus women with stress UI, whereas a decrease was reported between incontinent and continent women. Studies from group B showed a decreased sympathetic and parasympathetic modulation in AOB with detrusor overactivity (DO), whereas one study found an increase in both modulations in women with OAB compared with stress UI. Conclusion Parasympathetic and sympathetic modulation increased during bladder filling and rest in UI with OAB associated or not with DO. Both modulations decreased during bladder filling in incontinent women and during rest in OAB.

Introduction and hypothesis The differential diagnosis of urinary symptoms may allow health professionals to establish a therapeutic objective and to choose the appropriate treatment for the patient's complaint. The aim of this study was to cross-culturally adapt the Three Incontinence Questionnaire (3IQ) into Brazilian Portuguese (3IQ-Br) and to analyze test-retest reliability, construct, and criterion validity in women. Methods The cross-cultural adaptation of the 3IQ-Br included forward-translation, back-translation, and consensus among an expert committee. Participants with and without urinary incontinence (UI) completed the 3IQ-Br, King's Health Questionnaire (KHQ), and Questionnaire for Female Urinary Incontinence Diagnosis (QUID-Br). Only women with UI answered 3IQ-Br after 7–10 days. Test-retest reliability and construct validity were analyzed using the Cohen linear kappa (k). The 3IQ-Br accuracy was analyzed using the area under the curve (AUC) of the receiver-operating characteristic (ROC) curve, considering the sensitivity and specificity to correctly classify women with and without UI. Results The reliability of each question from the 3IQ-Br was considered substantial in the test-retest. The agreement among 3IQ-Br, QUID-Br, and KHQ was almost perfect for UI diagnosis (k > 0.8). The 3IQ-Br was considered to have good accuracy in distinguishing women with UI considering the KHQ (AUC 0.83, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.78 to 0.87, p < 0.001), and fair to the QUID-Br (AUC 0.73, 95% CI 0.68 to 0.78; p < 0.001). Conclusions The results of this study showed that this version of the 3IQ-Br has acceptable measurement properties for identifying and differentiating UI symptoms in Brazilian women.

In this thesis we study property R_\infty for some classes of finitely generated groups by the use of the BNS invariant \Sigma^1 and some other geometric tools. In the combinatorial chapters of the work (4, 5, 6, 10 and 11), we compute \Sigma^1 for the family of Generalized Solvable Baumslag-Solitar groups \Gamma_n and use it to obtain a new proof of R_\infty for them, by using Gonçalves and Kochloukova's paper. Then, we get nice information on finite index subgroups H of any \Gamma_n by finding suitable generators and a presentation, and by computing their \Sigma^1. This gives a new proof of R_\infty for H and for every finite direct product of such groups. We also show that no nilpotent quotients of the groups \Gamma_n have R_\infty. With a help of Cashen and Levitt's paper, we give an algorithmic classification of all possible shapes for \Sigma^1 of GBS and GBS_n groups and show how to use it to obtain some partial twisted-conjugacy information in some specific cases. Furthermore, we show that the existence of certain spherically convex and invariant k-dimensional polytopes in the character sphere of a finitely generated group G can guarantee R_\infty for G. In the geometric chapters (7 through 9), we study property R_\infty for hyperbolic and relatively hyperbolic groups. First, we give a didactic presentation of the (already known) proof of R_\infty for hyperbolic groups given by Levitt and Lustig (which also uses a paper from Paulin). Then, we expand and analyse the sketch of proof of R_\infty for relatively hyperbolic groups given by A. Fel'shtyn on his survey paper: we point out the valid arguments and difficulties of the proof, exhibit what would be a complete proof based on his sketch and show an example where the proof method doesn't work.

This research proposal proposes a set of possibilities through the conceptions of place, body and person among the Pirahã, a group who speak the Mura language of the Maici river basin in central Amazonia. The project was developed around the way Pirahã conceptualize their own world in confrontation with other worlds, and how these specific create very different living places. It takes as its starting point the anthropological debate about the Amerindian world in the Amazon, particularly about the practical-cognitive regimes in its result obtained thought the relationships of distance and differential proximity between men, animals, plants, spirits, minerals, objects and phenomena. As a general hypothesis, the research seeks to update the specific problem through which the Pirahã think and act in the territory, in the possibilities of the dynamics of social life and the dynamics of the cosmos to be translated into a code of bodies, names, places and actions endowed with a co- extensive mode of existence of their own. In this sense, an analysis seeks to use the conceptual imagination about the Pirahã, both from ethnographic and historical linguistic works, among others, and to articulate them with the classic themes of Amazonian anthropology, with a view to improving their research instruments. Thus, we intend to highlight the so-called "native" concepts and theories with regard to their classification systems and the conceptions about the environment, fauna, flora and other "entities", in order to qualify what modern sciences usually opposed in the form of watertight dualisms: Nature / Society; Man / Animal; Subject / Object; Body / Spirit; Village / City.

Metal contamination of aquatic ecosystems poses to aquatic biota. Usually, metals are not present isolated in environments, so aquatic organisms are exposed to several chemical compounds simultaneously. Despite this, there is still not much data on the long-term effects of metal mixtures on aquatic organisms. This study investigates the toxic effects of an essential metal, manganese (Mn), and a non-essential one, chromium (Cr), in single and combined form, on the freshwater chlorophyte Raphidocelis subcapitata. This research evaluated the impact of the metals in isolated and mixture forms on growth, the photosynthetic activity, biochemical composition, and reactive oxygen species (ROS) production of this chlorophyte to obtain an in-depth assessment of the toxic actions of the contaminants. Both Mn and Cr led to growth inhibition and reduced the chlorophyll a fluorescence of the microalgae, being Mn more toxic than Cr. The species sensitivity distribution curve revealed that the species used in the present study was the most sensitive to Mn, among other several freshwater organisms exposed to this metal. Mn negatively affected the efficiency of the oxygen evolution complex, the effective quantum yield, and photochemical quenching of the microalgae. At the same time, Cr led to less severe alterations in these parameters, probably due to the activation of photoprotection mechanisms. The mixture of Mn and Cr showed additive effects for the microalgae, and the Independent Action reference model was the one that best fitted the data. The ROS production increased significantly after 96 h of exposure to both metals. At high Mn concentrations (7.28 and 14.56 μM), in which there was more outstanding production of lipids in response to the stress caused by the metal, the intracellular levels of ROS dropped, suggesting that the increase in the total lipids content acted as a defense. The combination of the metals led to synergistic effects for the effective quantum yield and antagonistic for the total carbohydrates content of the alga, highlighting the importance of studies that consider metal interactions in ecotoxicological assessments. Mn and Cr led to different microalgae responses regarding the lipid class composition: Mn caused an increase in the levels of aliphatic hydrocarbons (HC), ketone (KET), free fatty acids (FFA), free sterol (ST), and acetone-mobile polar lipids (AMPL), while Cr induced a reduction in triglycerides (TAG), ST and AMPL. The data from this study contribute with information on the potential risks of Mn and Cr toxicity, isolated and combined, in freshwater ecosystems.

The object of this research is the proposal of a model for Voltage-Stability/Security on strained Optimal Power Flow (VSSC-OPF) problems applied to mid-term energy procurement auction systems in electricity markets. In the existing literature, many of the operational security representations in Optimal Power Flow (OPF) problems are too conservative, first or second-order approximations, with high computational costs and/or even ineffective. In this context, a practical VSSC-OPF problem whose voltage stability/security representation is designated by a functional approximation characterized by Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs) with feature selection is proposed in this research project, making it possible the use of Nonlinear Programming (NLP) resolution methodologies. This research project is methodologically founded on determining voltage stability/security limits associated with power system loading margins accounting for saddle-node and limit induced bifurcations and technical-operational limits on transmission lines; in the inclusion of feature selection for the functional approximation of such limits by ANN; the incorporation of this functional approximation into the VSSC-OPF problem and the resolution of the resulting NLP problem. To accomplish this, the main concepts on power system operational voltage stability/security, mid-term energy procurement auction systems in electricity markets and resolution of NLP problems will be outlined by means of a background review on these subjects. The ANN training and validation processes will be realized on Jupyter Notebook, and the proposed model will be implemented in the AMPL modeling language for mathematical programs and solved by LOQO solver. The functional approximation of power system voltage stability/security limits and the proposed VSSC-OPF model will be validated by numerical tests with test systems commonly deployed for this task in the correlate literature.

Este artigo desenvolve reflexões sobre a autonomia universitária e como ela está sendo entendida e interpretada do ponto de vista legal e de ponto de Vista acadêmico, de forma geral. O autor entende que a autonomia somente será uma realidade concreta quando todos os sujeitos compromissados com a universidade se derem conta da força que têm, pois autonomia e indissociabilidade ensino-pesquisa-extensão não são “objetos outorgados, mas conquistados”.

O artigo analisa a influência das críticas às representações das mulheres nas práticas publicitárias do setor cervejeiro no Brasil entre 2012 e 2017 a partir da perspectiva dos Campos de Ação Estratégica. Diferentemente das análises existentes, o objeto de estudo foi concebido como um conjunto de campos interconectados e o papel das unidades de governança na dinâmica da mudança social foi enfatizado. Uma análise do conteúdo de 213 propagandas das maiores marcas de cerveja do país, de 99 ações abertas contra a indústria cervejeira no Conselho Nacional de Autorregulamentação Publicitária (CONAR) e de reportagens da mídia foi realizada. Os resultados indicam que a perda de eficácia simbólica de práticas publicitárias sexistas foi impulsionada por episódios de conflito que tiveram ampla repercussão midiática e que afetaram as empresas dominantes do setor cervejeiro. Esses fatores possibilitaram que as críticas contornassem a atuação conservadora do CONAR, a unidade de governança instituída dos campos da publicidade no Brasil.

Coronaviruses are a group of viruses that includes SARS-CoV-2 (severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2), which causes COVID-19 (coronavirus disease 2019), a disease that had its first outbreak in China in December 2019 and that rapidly spread across the globe, characterizing a pandemic declared in March 2020. SARS-CoV-2 infection can be either asymptomatic or cause mild symptoms or progress to severe or fatal cases. COVID-19 has shown particularities that increasingly demand scientists’ attention in the search for vaccines, drugs, diagnostic methods and predictors for the severity of the case, among a scenario of high numbers of infected and deaths. The immune system plays a prominent role not only in fighting infection, but also in the immunopathology of COVID-19 itself, through hypercytokinemia, known as “cytokine storm”. This dysregulated immune response can worsen the case, as well as comorbidities that include diabetes, high blood pressure, cardiovascular disease and obesity, especially in older individuals. The present work aimed to review COVID-19’s history from an immunogenetic point of view and, in extension to the literature review, we organized data from large-scale studies that identified genes/proteins with altered expression in individuals with severe COVID-19 cases, when compared to non-severe cases. Thus, we performed an analysis based on gene ontology, revealing enriched biological processes that demonstrate the importance of the functionality and regulation of the immune response.
Contribuições paleoecológicas para o estudo da paleoparasitologia com base na análise de ossos, osteodermos e coprólitos de vertebrados

Studies in Paleoparasitology are still scarce worldwide. Interdisciplinary, they can use techniques from different areas of knowledge, such as Paleontology, Archeology, Medicine, Epidemiology, Molecular Biology, Evolutionary Biology and Ecology. The information obtained in paleoparasitological studies concerns not only the organisms and parasitic diseases, but also can provide a lot of information about the paleoenvironment and about the paleoecological relationships involved in the interactions. In this work, different materials from the paleontological collection of the Laboratório de Paleoecologia e Paleoicnologia (LPP), of the Universidade Federal de São Carlos, in São Carlos-SP were analyzed. Such materials were previously collected in other Undergraduate and Postgraduate research at the LPP and taken up again in the present Doctorate because they present some type of evidence of endoparasitism or ectoparasitism. The materials analyzed were coprolites of different vertebrates, from the Northeast region of Brazil, from the archaeological and paleontological site Lagoa Uri de Cima, located in the region of Salgueiro, Pernambuco, collected in a partnership with the Fundação Oswaldo Cruz (Fiocruz do Rio de Janeiro). Dating back to the Pleistocene and Holocene, these materials have not confirmed evidence of parasites. However, nematode larvae, remains of plant (such as pollen grains, starch and phytoliths) and other types of diet were found through macroscopic observation of the diet of the animals, optical microscopy and analysis by computerized microtomography. Another material analyzed was 1300 osteoderms from three individuals of Holmesina Cryptae (Xenarthra, Cingulata, Pampatheriidae), deposited in the LPP collection. This material was obtained after two expeditions, carried out in 2012 and 2014, at Gruta da Lapinha, in the municipality of Iramaia, Bahia. Osteoderms that had marks possibly related to parasitism were observed by optical and scanning electron microscopy. The marks were divided into three types: they could have been caused by fungal infection, being the first description of this type in fossilized osteoderms, by secondary infection, after an initial injury, or by the action of Siphonaptera (fleas), which, therefore, already found in this host at least 20,000 years ago. Finally, the fibula of a sauropod dinosaur from the Upper Cretaceous was also studied, collected in the Northwest of the state of São Paulo and deposited in that collection in 2006. It was recovered by postdoctoral and master researchers in 2017 and 2018, who performed histological analyzes using computed tomography, at the Escola de Medicina da USP and by scanning electron microscopy, at the Universidade do Estado de Campinas, and obtained the result of acute osteomyelitis. In addition, microfossils were found in the vascular channels of the animal, which led to an investigation using optical microscopy at theUniversidade Federal de São Carlos. As a result, about 70 microorganisms were observed preserved inside the vascular channels of the animal, which were described as a possible species of blood parasite, being the first record of parasites inside the bones of these animals. The results of these works and the resulting discussions have been or will be presented in scientific articles, but also in a book, in scientific dissemination events and in locations outside the Universities, with the aim of increasing dialogue and helping to strengthen the approximation between the academic and the external environment research institutes, involving society in general.

Motivated by the application of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) in the teaching of Physics, we developed the scripts for three experimental activities in Thermology using technological tools to be applied to high school students. The proposed experiments, whose data acquisition is automated through the application of thermal sensors and a computer-assisted Arduino board, can compare the heat conduction of different metals, show both qualitatively and quantitatively the difference between water and sand specifications when these materials are heated or cooled simultaneously by the same heat source and determine a thermal property of the specific heat. It is expected that students recognize that different materials have differences in thermal conductivity and understand the importance of the specific heat of water and sand in the formation of sea breezes. The experimental activities of our work, which establish a relationship between the scientific concepts discussed in the classroom and observable phenomena in nature, have the potential to increase the involvement of students in quality and quantity, promoting changes in their beliefs about Physics.
