Introduction: Dementia is a condition that affects the cognitive ability of elderly people and can significantly impact their behavior. Musical intervention has been considered a promising alternative for the treatment of cognitive and behavioral disorders in elderly people with dementia. Method: Descriptive-exploratory, quasiexperimental study, with 14 institutionalized older people. Eight sessions of music listening took place over two months. A Sociodemographic Questionnaire, Neuropsychiatric Inventory, Facial Action Coding System and Body Movement Assessment were used. Results: The majority were women, with an average institutionalization time of 16.6 months, an average use of 2.6 medications per day, and the prevalent dementia was Alzheimer's disease. There was a statistically significant decrease (p<0.005) in the severity of depression and motor disturbance symptoms, as well as a decrease in caregiver burden regarding depression and apathy symptoms. During the music sessions, the most observed emotion was joy, and the least observed was fear. All participants presented movements in the headtrunk area.Conclusion: The musical intervention was effective in reducing the severity of some symptoms in elderly people with dementia and also reduced caregiver burden related to these symptoms, in addition to stimulating positive movements and emotions.

The law 13.415/2017 changed the so called “Law of Directives and Bases of National Education” (Lei de Diretrizes e Bases da Educação – LDB) and is known as “New High School” (NEM). It promoted changes in its structure and timetable, flexibilized the curriculum, and added the Itinerários Formativos - IF (track of specialization). In 2021, during the Covid-19 pandemic, the public schools of São Paulo State started its implementation. Both the State Department of Education and the schools are not informing clearly about how teachers should work in it, especially regarding/concerning IFs. Therefore, the objective of this research is to analyze the Physical Education teaching processes during the classes of a teacher-researcher under the new guidelines of the IF “Languages and Their Technologies”. The methodology was based on a qualitative analysis, through pedagogical intervention. It was conducted in the first half of 2022, with second year students of the NEM, enrolled in the #SeLigaNaMidia division, component 3: “Journalism and Inclusion in Sports: Practices and Experimentation”. The data collection source was the classroom diaries written by the teacher-researcher. The data analysis was held through the elaboration of categories, as follows: Engagement and impressions of the researcher during the process; Structuring and development of the support material (MAPPA); Strengths and weaknesses of the NEM and the IF. The study pointed out that the NEM presents several problems, from structural to socio-educational, with more weaknesses than strengths. Moreover, the state of São Paulo, when beginning the implementation of the NEM, before the deadline set by the Ministry of Education, generated many doubts and insecurities both among students and teachers, especially regarding the IFs.

According to the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (DUDH), the Federal Constitution of 1988 (CF) and Law No. 8080 of 1990, health is a fundamental right for all and must be guaranteed by the State. In order to maintain the security of this individual right, communication is the primordial mechanism, as health care is provided in/through dialogued interaction between patient and servants (doctors, nurses and other health professionals). Deaf people have the legal right to linguistic accessibility through the use of sign language, but due to the lack of investment in language policies aimed at the health area; they have been harmed in their care. Therefore, this research problematizes this field by describing public accessibility policies through cartography of the health field in a city in the interior of the state of São Paulo. We surveyed the actions carried out (or not) in the city studied, regarding the effectiveness of bilingual health (in Brazilian Sign Language and Portuguese) for the deaf, as stated in legal documents. This is a qualitative research based on the theoretical-philosophical proposal of Michel Foucault, with principles of archeogenealogy and deleuze-guattarinean cartography. In this investigative practice, historical archives are used, such as official documents, discursive productions of subjects, in order to seek the production and historical function of these discursivities and how they operate in the practical life of these subjects, affecting the production of subjectivation processes by relations of power and knowledge. We collected data from a survey of legal provisions on institutional websites, in a field diary of this researcher's activities, in a community interpretation of Libras in the sphere of health; in interviews with professionals from the Municipal Health Department and in interviews given by deaf people who use these services. We analyzed data from theoretical-philosophical studies, from the perspective of the philosophy of difference (Michel Foucault, Gilles Deleuze and Félix Guattari) and from authors of Deaf Studies and Sign Language Translation and Interpretation Studies. By pointing out the weaknesses present in health services aimed at deaf people, speakers of Libras, we understand that it will be possible to help new reflections for this field. Thus, we hope that the results of this research will contribute to future studies, as well as to discussions in the health area, in the training and practice of services in this area, developing bilingual health centers, aimed at the deaf population, in order to have the guarantee of access to this fundamental right.

Forest restoration corresponds to several actions and techniques aimed at repairing and maintaining forest ecosystems. In Brazil, forest restoration plays an important role in the restitution of the Atlantic Forest biome and only gained ground in the 21st century with the introduction of laws that demand compensation and repair of environmental damage. In this sense, forest restoration can not be applied aiming only at the techniques that best serve the study area, but also it is essential to consider its long-term monitoring to verify the progression of the restoration process. Nowadays, restoration monitoring uses equipment such as the Remotely Piloted Aircraft System (RPAS) that through loco activities and image processing in the laboratory aids the periodic inspection of the restored area. It enables information such as the number of resilient individuals, species classification, and vegetation height of the given area. Such monitoring practices require a large investment of time and human resources. Those practices may contribute to greater cost-effectiveness of the restoration process if they are optimized. In front of the current impediments in optimizing forest restoration monitoring, this project aims to apply the artificial intelligent algorithm Mask R-CNN to automate the counting and delineation of restoration seedlings in images from RPAS, comparing the performance of this algorithm in RGB and multispectral (MSP) images. The results obtained by the study showed that the algorithm was more efficient when applied to RGB images, identifying 717 seedlings out of a total of 1069. On the other side, the MSP images obtained a lower performance, identifying 61 seedlings out of a total of 1011. Another outcome of the study was the Jaccard index, which refers to the percentage of hits in the delineation (overlap/intersection analysis) of identified objects (seedlings), in this case, such as to the images RGB as to the MSP, the algorithm presented an index of intersection ranging from 50 to 95%. The contribution of this study to future academic research in monitoring and mapping the vegetation shows that it is possible to automate the counting of seedlings delineation in RPAS derived from images. Moreover, it saves resources and time, acknowledging that the use of artificial intelligence algorithms represents a promising method for accomplishing this function. It is also concluded that the greater efficiency of the algorithm in RGB images rules out the need to use a multispectral sensor for this purpose, lowering the cost of equipment and bringing alternatives to make monitoring forest restoration more viable.

This dissertation investigates the relationships between the formal and informal organizational structures of an academic organization based on the sociological approach of Pierre Bourdieu. Deploying concepts such as field, habitus and capital in an empirical assessment, we sought to analyze the trajectories of professors in an academic department based on data obtained from their academic resume’s (Curriculum Lattes) and other institutional documents of the organization. Data analysis was performed using a multiple correspondence analysis - ACM. The results indicate that the informal structure of the department is organized around two axes, one that opposes scientific capital to organizational capital and another that opposes the total capital of professors, which is related to the seniority of professors and defines relations between dominant and dominated. The results obtained indicate that the renewal of the teaching staff over the last few years and the growing appreciation of scientific capital are important vectors of organizational change, tending to shape existing disputes.

Introduction: Although there are previous studies looking at different proprieties (i.e., reliability, validity, internal consistency, and others) of outcome measures for several conditions, few researchers are dedicated to developing and refining the methodology to understand the clinical significance or the diagnostic accuracy of outcomes related to urinary incontinence (UI) and pelvic floor muscles (PFM) function, respectively. In the era of Evidence-Based Practice (EBP) is crucial that research supports clinical practice and clinical significance of relevant outcome measures is evaluated. Objective: To increase the evidence regarding measurements proprieties that can be used in the women’s health field. Materials and Methods: This project was conducted in two steps: the first study (Article 1) was a systematic review that synthetized all Minimal Important Differences (MIDs) of outcomes related to UI in the literature, and the second study (Article 2) was a cross-sectional study that analyzed which variables from the PeritronTM manometer could differentiate women with/without a weak/strong PFM contraction and determine their cut-off points for this discrimination. Article 1 was conducted as the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) recommendations. Five online databases were consulted (Medline, Embase, CINAHL, Web of Science, and Scopus) in order to find patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) related to female UI outcomes. The credibility and certainty of the evidence were assessed for MIDs reported by anchor-based methods. Absolute MIDs (mean difference associated with minimal improvement) were calculated for each study separately according to the mean change of the group of participants by checking the original papers and by extracting the mean change of the group of participants that reported a slight improvement, according to the anchor applied during data collection, when possible. The quality of the evidence was assessed by the Grading of Recommendations, Assessment, Development, and Evaluation (GRADE). Article 2 included one hundred and fifty-six women (mean age 40±16.0 SD years) were included. The reference test was vaginal palpation and vaginal manometry (PeritronTM manometer) was the index test. Variables were rest, maximal voluntary contraction (CVM), intravaginal pressure average, duration, gradient, area under the curve (AUC), and contraction speed. The Receiver Operating Curve (ROC) and logistic regression were used to analyze the data data to determine the variables which better discriminated between women with/without a weak/strong PFM contraction and obtain their cut-off points. Results: For the Article 1, 11 studies were included and twelve PROMs were found with their respective MIDs (48 and 65 MIDs reported according to distribution-based and anchor-based methods, respectively). MIDs according to distribution- methods were reported by the effect size (range from -49.7 to 12.1 points), standard error of the measurement (SEM) (range -18.2 to 4.3) and standardized response mean (range from 1.3 to 1.4). MIDs for anchor-based methods reported by studies varied from -44.6 to 6.9 points. Most of the included studies did not consider the smallest difference identified by the participants to calculate the MIDs. Eleven absolute MIDs on the range of 0-10 (range from 2 to 7 points) and 10 absolute MIDs from -150 to +150 were calculated (range from -51 to 47 points). All reports related to MID according to anchor-based methods presented low credibility and very low certainty of the evidence. In Article 2, an excellent ability to discriminate women with a weak/strong PFM contraction was found for intravaginal pressure average (cut-off: 28.93 cmH2O), MVC (cut-off: 38.61 cmH2O), and the AUC (cut-off: 1011.93 cmH2O). The gradient variable had good discrimination ability (AUC=0.81; cut-off: 28.68 cmH2O). The intravaginal pressure average assessed by manometry, menopausal status, and stress urinary incontinence (SUI) were associated with PFM contraction in the multivariate analysis; however, the most parsimonious model to discriminate weak/strong PFM contraction included only the intravaginal pressure average (AUC = 0.95; sensitivity: 0.87; specificity: 0.91). Conclusion: There is a high variability of MIDs related to PROMs for UI outcomes according to the method of analysis, PROMs and anchors used, however, the credibility and certainty of the evidence to support these MIDs is still limited. Results should be interpreted with caution and future studies must be conduct following previous recommendations about how to calculate and analyze MID. In addition, the best variables to discriminate women with a weak/strong PFM contraction using a vaginal manometer were intravaginal pressure average, peak of MVC, AUC, and gradient. The best model to discriminate weak/strong PFM contraction included only the intravaginal pressure average. These variables could be used in clinical and research practice to assess PFM contraction.

It is in cities that most people have aged. Research that investigates the built environment, social functions and the relationship between human beings and housing is essential. Housing, offered and guaranteed with quality, helps to prevent diseases and disabilities throughout the life cycle. Due to the great impact that housing has on people's health and quality of life, the term residential satisfactory emerged in the area of environmental psychology, with the aim of achieving measures to evaluate the space in which one lives and offer improvements, qualifying the spaces. In view of the gaps identified in the science dealing with the subject, the objective of the study is to contribute to the creation of an instrument to measure the satisfaction of elderly people in relation to their experience and carry out the validation of its content. It is a cross-sectional research, with the quantitative and qualitative method of investigation. For the content validation of the instrument, the e-Delphi method was used, an investigation technique, investigated by the possibility of joining different opinions of several specialists and building a product on complex themes, through the consensus of those involved. This research constituted a committee of specialists formed by ten professionals, selected in order to provide a heterogeneous group, interconnected by similar areas. As this is content validation through a group consensus of specialists, a Content Validation Index (CVI) equal to or greater than 80% was established. The results of the first round of instrument judgment indicated that, according to the experts, 85% of the items were considered relevant and pertinent to the proposed construct. However, some items did not reach the minimum consensus value, requiring revision and a second round of opinion. After application and analysis of the IVC of this, there was a need for new adjustments according to the suggestions of the judges, with subsequent submission of the third phase. After analysis of the third round of evaluation, all items reached the degree of agreement between the experts. In general, the research findings demonstrated the viability of the construct, being considered relevant and adequate to measure the housing satisfaction of the elderly population, simultaneously permeating objective and subjective approaches and connecting issues related to the surroundings, building and resident singularities. The study corroborated the literature regarding the dimensions that influence satisfaction, such as housing characteristics, infrastructure, public facilities, neighborhood facilities and social environment. It was also concluded that the e-Delphi method has favorable aspects in relation to its application, such as economic viability and unfavorable aspects such as the withdrawal of members of the expert committee during the instrument's evaluation rounds. As much as the proposed instrument quantitatively assesses housing satisfaction, it is pertinent to apply it together with qualitative questions in order to strengthen the investigation of this subjective construct.

Studies in the human sciences have focused on the rapid and continuous dissemination of news, particularly in the digital environment. We have found that frequently, such discourses are presented through genres of journalistic discourse, providing them with legitimacy, in which various versions of facts circulate based on beliefs, knowledge, and ideological positions. Therefore, we decided to observe how speakers represent the minority groups selected on certain websites for this research: women, black people, the LGBTQIAP+ community, immigrants, and indigenous people. The corpus consisted of news published on websites presenting themselves as information portals, denounced by the Sleeping Giants movement as propagators of fake news and intolerant speeches, namely: Jornal da Cidade Online, Conexão Política, Brasil Sem Medo, Brasil Paralelo, and Estudos Nacionais. For the selection, we applied filters using search tools on these websites, based on terms referring to such groups. Initially, we discussed the idea of truth and post-truth, considering the researcher's position on truth, both their position and the observed corpus (ANGERMULLER, 2018). To describe the websites and the discursive genres published in the digital environment, we mobilize the theory of Digital Discourse Analysis (PAVEAU, 2021), considering the characteristics of web-native discourse. Enlargement characteristic allowed us to reflect on disseminating this news, especially through social media. Then we described and interpreted data, considering the theory of pre-discourses by Marie-Anne Paveau (2013) to analyze the meaning effects produced by the pre-discourses. The beliefs and knowledge contained in the pre-discourses brought elements of materiality that showed the position of these websites about minority groups. We verified that there is a building narrative about villains versus heroes through what we called traditional, incontestable, and contrastive pre-discourses. Through these pre-discourses, we observed the gradual building of this narrative in these websites, using stereotypes with typical attributes of each group (PAVEAU, 2013). Minority groups have been attributed the characteristics of villains due to their practices considered transgressive, criminal, and deceitful. Heroes, on the other hand, would be the locutors who stand against these villains, either by denouncing them or by defending their victims. This narrative develops through constant and repetitive attacks on minority groups, including social movements and, directly or indirectly, the left parties that support these groups. Minority groups are portrayed as responsible for their own misery and social problems, considered different, inferior, and, therefore, deserving of domination or extermination. We therefore highlight the conservative resistance to the rise of diversity to power, manifested in practices of erasure and building narratives, positioning minority groups as enemies of society.

Current research claims that genetic makeup, together with environmental factors, may contribute to the cause of childhood autism, as they point to evidence of heritability and a higher incidence of autism in families with a history of it. Case studies on twins are scarce in the literature, but fundamental for analyzing the possibility of heritability and the importance of ontogenesis. In its characterization, ASD is marked by abnormalities in social interaction, communication, spoken language and a shallow and stereotyped behavioral repertoire. This impairment in verbal behavior, present in people with autism, is frequently described in the literature. In this audience, one of the main verbal operants that can present a loss in its acquisition is the echoic. In order to understand the functions related to the processes of acquisition of human behavior, it is necessary to study child development and its particularities, especially with atypical children, and, therefore, longitudinal studies with this theme must be carried out. Therefore, the objective of this research was to describe and analyze, in a longitudinal and specific way, the acquisition process of echoic behavior and its prerequisites in twins concordant for autism, identifying the differences that occurred in the learning process and listing possible implications of this learning, bearing in mind that both brothers were submitted to the same protocols, under similar application conditions. For this purpose, the method used was a primary source documentary research. It was verified, retrospective, descriptive and longitudinally, the acquisition of the echoic repertoire and its prerequisite behaviors for learning by children with ASD. The analysis of the reported data confirms the effectiveness of the ABA-based behavioral intervention model for teaching verbal repertoire and strengthens the notion that individualized, structured interventions, with individualized teaching schedules and based on scientific evidence can be applied to teach skills that may favor or improve the quality of life of the individual. In addition, this research presents significant contributions by expanding the data in the literature on behavioral intervention and the acquisition and generalization of verbal behaviors and their prerequisites, in addition to bringing more information to fill the gap present in the literature on behavioral intervention and its repertoires of learning in twins.

This research is inserted in the field of educational curricular policies and aimed to study the National Common Curricular Base (BNCC), intending to identify similarities with elements of neoliberal ideas for education and to understand the consequences of its proposals for teaching work, from the perspective of teachers from a state school, which participates in the Integral Teaching Program (PEI), of high school in São Carlos. After identifying the interferences from neoliberal ideology in the educational policies of the Brazilian basic education, topics of the BNCC were analyzed in order to discern tendencies to the neoliberal ideology. Therefore, the research is characterized as qualitative, bibliographic and field, in which the steps of bibliographical and documentary survey, semi-structured interviews, data triangulation and content analysis were carried out. In light of the contributions of Pierre Bourdieu's theory, we analyzed the process of internalization of neoliberal ideology at school, guiding people to the mercantile logic, by changing their practices and professional habitus. We verified that several characteristic elements of the neoliberal ideology are placed for the educational sector, for students and teachers, depositing in them the commitment with the economy and with the resolution of social problems. Competitiveness, creativity and entrepreneurship are reinforced as essential skills for personal development, citizenship and employability, encouraged by youth protagonism. Thus, several aspects of the BNCC are close to elements of neoliberal ideas and imply a significant formative fragility, revealing challenges for democracy, justice and social inclusion, values set out throughout the document. Regarding the consequences for the teaching work, we verified that the intensification of the workloads and countless demands of the PEI are factors that compromise the availability and dedication of the teachers to the study of the proposals and curriculum that are being implemented in Basic Education. The implementation process of the BNCC, a national project designed as a response to the idea of an educational crisis to be contained, also reinforced teacher blaming and the role of individuality in the issue of Brazilian education. In the light of Pierre Bourdieu, we analyze that the delimitation of the way of doing the pedagogical action enable the imposition of a cultural arbitrariness and the internalization of the neoliberal ideology in the school. By dissimulating the imposition of a dominant culture as legitimate and common to all, the school institution tends to legitimize social privileges and reproduce the neoliberal logic as a reference. We hope that the results of this study will provide reflections on the BNCC and contribute to the expansion of discussions on Brazilian educational policies.

The forestry Market has expanded throughout the world significantly in recente years. Because of this growth, the challenges of increasing productivity and competitiveness among companies for forestry training based on sustainable ESG (Enviroental, Social and Governance) concepts growth as well. Therefore, this Project aims to assess the potential for reducing the volume of irrigation water from Eucalyptus forestry activities. The Project analyzed the operations of irrigated planting and conventional planting (planting and irrigation independent) and was divided into five main treatments: T0 (no irrigation), T1 (an irrigation of 250 ml/plant), T2 (an irrigation of 4 l/ plant), T3 (two irrigations, the first being 250 ml/plant) and T4 (two irrigations of 4 l/plant). The experiments were executed in São Paulo state between may to december and genetical material does not present any resistance to water deficit. The initial results measured the mortality rate of the different treatments and presented no significant results between T3 and T4 from may to june and significant results between T3 and T4 from july to august. There is a potential to reduce the volume of water during planting to 250 ml/plant in the first irrigation during humid period of the year. As a result, opportunities to reduce the volume of irrigation water were identified, with significant gains in the use of renewable resources and in line with ESG guidelines.

The entertainment sector, including event organization, is a prominent branch in the service industry, with a constant demand for innovations and, currently, a concern for sustainability issues, which can be represented by an ESG approach, an acronym in English for "Environmental, Social, and Governance." The objective of this study was to estimate, through data collected from sample events, the environmental impacts generated by solid waste discarded during open bar leisure events, as well as to evaluate the perception of both organizers and attendees through interactive questionnaires regarding such impacts. Thus, it was possible to map the consumer preferences of the audience in this type of event, the environmental impact generated, the audience's awareness of ESG issues, as well as their willingness to attend and prioritize events that incorporate environmental concerns. The results of this research indicate that beer consumption is the largest source of solid waste, followed by cocktails and energy drinks, along with a considerable generation of organic waste, which requires an appropriate disposal structure. The majority of the respondents were female university students between 18 and 23 years old. Although the audience has some concern about environmental impact,

As concern for sustainable practices in the textile industry grew around the world, there was a need to develop waste disposal initiatives specifically aimed at small businesses, which are quite common in this segment. The sector is one of the biggest polluters in the world, causing great environmental impact, mainly from the inadequate disposal of solid waste. Through a multi-case study, carried out in three micro-enterprises located in the state of São Paulo, this article analyzes the main barriers found in small clothing companies that prevent the implementation of reverse logistics in the sector and raises the opportunities for action that can make such actions viable. . Through the application of a qualitative questionnaire and an interview, the information was collected and analyzed and the results indicate that the practice of reuse, using solid waste to compose sleeves, pockets, bands and collars of parts, and sale of solid waste, where companies can join partner companies with the purpose of reinserting waste into the production chain through recycling or reuse to make new parts, which generates good results in reducing waste and are financially viable and applicable to MPE's (Micro and small companies ) of confection. This article also discusses Law 12.305/2010, which proposes that companies have the responsibility to reinsert the goods produced into the production chain, but without mandatory execution aimed at the textile industry, requiring the creation of laws that include the sector . It also proved necessary to develop new studies aimed at recycling textile waste for MSEs.

Introduction: Falls in the older population are considered a public health problem and their consequences bring physical, psychological and financial losses. It is important to study and evaluate the effectiveness of innovative interventions nationwide on risk factors for falls, in order to contribute to the reduction of occurrences of falls. Objectives: To verify the effectiveness of an intervention based on case management on motor and environmental risk factors for falls in community-dwelling faller older people with cognitive impairment. Methods: This is a randomized study developed in the city of São Carlos- SP, in the year 2021 and 2022. Participants were older people with cognitive deficits and falling from the Multidisciplinary Program of Management Assistance and Management of Falls for Faller Older People (MAGIC). The participants were divided into two groups: Control Group (CG) and Intervention Group (IG). The IG underwent case management for 16 weeks conducted remotely, which involved a multidimensional assessment, explanation of the identified risk factors for falls, completion of intervention proposal based on the identified risks, development of an individualized falls intervention plan, follow-up and review of the plan. There were an initial assessment, a final assessment after 16 weeks, and a follow-up assessment after 6 weeks, remotely. The Short Physical Performance Battery (SPPB), TUG and TUG dual task, Manchester Index, Home Falls and Accidents Screening Tool (HOME FAST) were used, as well as foot inspection and shoe questionnaire. Results: The total sample consisted of 52 older people, 25 from the CG and 27 from the IG. There was no significant interaction between groups and moments. The CG presented a worse performance in muscle strength when compared to the IG, regardless of the assessment. In feet and footwear, there was a significant difference between groups (CG and IG) in the initial assessment and between assessments in both CG and IG. Conclusion: There was no effectiveness of an intervention based on case management on the motor risk factors for falls in faller older people with cognitive impairment. However, regarding environmental risk factors, specifically the use of footwear, it was possible to verify changes regarding the use after the intervention and follow-up, with adherence to the recommendations given. Further randomized clinical trials with the intervention based on case management are suggested to prove the findings.

Proposals centered on the body culture of movement within the context of school Physical Education encourage a look at the different possibilities of movement by the student and the opportunity to contemplate as many experiences as possible. Reassessing the learning objects and presenting a new thematic unit called Corporal practices in the liquid environment as a common curricular proposal, presents possibilities of access to a cultural heritage of undeniable value in the liquid environment for personal safety, enjoyment of leisure and unique learning. The main characteristic of the thematic unit of Corporal practices in the liquid environment is to break with the traditionalist concept of knowing how to swim, related to the four styles of swimming, which interfered in limiting the potential of the liquid environment, and guarantee the citizen's right to experience, enjoy, appreciate and create, proposing new perspectives on the selection of content for school Physical Education classes. In this way, the objective of the study is to analyze the development of body practices in the liquid environment as a curricular content of Physical Education at school for students in the early years of elementary school. The specific objectives are: (a) to highlight the possibilities of teaching the thematic unit of bodily practices in the liquid environment in Physical Education classes at school; (b) to analyze the development of the didactic unit of corporal practices in the liquid environment in the School Physical Education classes and (c) to identify the influences of the didactic unit realization on the students' learning. 30 students enrolled in the 3rd year of elementary school participated in the study. The foreseen procedures included: a) elaboration of a didactic unit of 14 classes, within the proposed thematic unit of Corporal practices in the liquid environment; b) application of the didactic unit in Physical Education classes at school and c) collection techniques used in the research. The instruments used were: systematized and filmed conversation circles and a logbook. The results showed that the didactic unit presented a diversified cultural collection and provided students with motor, cognitive, social and personal safety learning, relating learning to the eight dimensions of knowledge, and demonstrating that it was possible to enhance freedom of action in the liquid environment and provide sensations of pleasure that inferred in the enjoyment of leisure by the student. In this way, we hope to have contributed to the subject being addressed more frequently and that, in a future reformulation of the National Common Curricular Base, body practices in the liquid environment can be thought of no longer as a suggestion, but as a basic learning knowledge. through a new thematic unit.

Care for the LGBT+ population has as its fundamental aspect the influence of the professional's vision in the provision of care and the need for adequate reception, as these people already arrive at health services stigmatized, due to prejudiced situations that they experience on a daily basis. Objective: To analyze the perception of ESF nurses about health care for LGBT+ people. Method: This is a descriptive study, with a qualitative approach. Data were collected in May and June 2023, through semi-structured interviews with nurses from the ESF in the city of São Luís/MA. The information obtained was analyzed through content analysis through processing in the IRAMUTEQ software. The project was approved by the Research Ethics Committee of the Federal University of São Carlos/UFSCar, CAAE 66695223.4.0000.5504, opinion no. 5,946,479 and authorization by the Municipal Health Department of the city of São Luís/MA through the letter of consent. Results: 31 nurses participated in the study, the majority of whom were cis women (93.5%), aged between 26 and 55 years old, married (68.8%) and mixed race (64.5%), with time of professional experience in the ESF between 8 months and 28 years. Two categories emerged from the Descending Hierarchical Classification (CHD), identified by subcorpus A and B, being A) Facilities and difficulties in assistance and B) Primary Health Care and professional satisfaction. Final considerations: It is possible to analyze the perception of ESF nurses about health care for LGBT+ people with the aim of proposing strategies to improve care, taking into account the facilities and mainly focusing on the difficulties presented by professionals who provide this assistance in PHC.

The present project proposed the elaboration and application of the LUDOVID game, based on the ludo game, the elaboration and implementation of a pedagogical proposal that addresses the problem of the COVID-19 pandemic with concepts of health and science correlated with topics of natural science (biology and chemistry) in an interdisciplinary way. The choice of the theme “COVID-19 pandemic” was determined after a bibliographical survey that demonstrated the lack of studies on the relationship of educational ludic games with the proposed theme, due to the fact that it is a recent topic. Another factor that influenced the choice was the spread of false news, the so-called “fake news”, released during the pandemic, stimulated by government policies that denied science. LUDOVID was applied in the Chemistry discipline offered to the high school students at Centro Educacional Avicenna LTDA, located in the cities of Leme/SP and Pirassununga/SP. This work sought to understand the playful pedagogical potential of the proposed game, in addition to identifying the factors that would indicate its effectiveness in relation to the understanding of the subjects that were taught during the class. In order to verify the applicability of this methodology for science teaching, the framework Messeder Neto (2016) and Savi (2011) was used. It was also possible to evaluate the students' perception in relation to their motivation, experience of playing a ludic game during a class and the impact of the game on their learning. Teachers who used the LUDOVID game proposal were also evaluated through a semi-structured interview, which was later evaluated by a descriptive analysis. They were also provided with a preliminary lesson plan that was prepared to help them in this activity, and were able to modify it according to their needs and perceptions in class. To evaluate the students' perception of the game, a questionnaire was used, the data collected was later analyzed as described by Savi (2011).

To evaluate the presence of non-psychotic symptoms and their relationship with the sociolaboratory profile and use of psychoactive substances by frontline nursing workers. Method: observational, cross-sectional and analytical study composed of a simple random sample of 219 nurses, technicians, and nursing assistants working on the front line in any level of health care. Those who did not fully respond to the research form or were not formally linked to institutions in a city at interior of the State of São Paulo, Brazil were excluded. An online questionnaire was applied with social and labor information, a Self Report Questionnaire (SRQ-20) to identify non-psychotic symptoms and the Alcohol, Smoking and Substance Involvement Screening Test (ASSIST) to screen substance use. For data analysis were used descriptive statistics (mean, median, standard deviation, and variance) and inferential statistics (Fisher's Exact Test, Mann Whitney's U Test, and Spearman's Correlation Test). Sample normality was tested using the Shapiro Wilk Test. The odds ratio was calculated to verify whether a given social-occupational variable was related to a greater chance of having non-psychotic symptoms. The significance level adopted for all statistical tests was 5%. Results: It was found that in the majority of the sample, non-psychotic symptoms started before the COVID-19 pandemic and there was maintenance of them associated with differences in gender, history of psychiatric disorder, and workload; however, there was no correlation with substance use. The highest means of psychoactive substance use were found for alcohol and tobacco, respectively. Despite this, the use of such substances was predominantly low risk, i.e., one that does not require intervention. Alcohol abuse was found in 61 (28.2%) of the participants. Regarding tobacco, 26 (11.9%) Conclusion: mental distress was associated with differences in gender, history of psychiatric disorders (anxiety and depression disorders) and workload, however, they were not related to the use of PAS. Nursing on the front line has historically been associated with negative impacts on the mental health of professionals, yet the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic are continuous and may vary according to realities and time frames, opening possibilities for new investigations.

This dissertation focuses on the public policy National Public Security Strategy on the Borders (ENAFRON) and seeks to understand how this public policy arises and what it establishes in the social world through its reports, whose function is to diagnose the "problems" of the borders. From the imaginations around the narrative conventions about the “problems” of the borders, I analyze what are the solutions that the “State”, represented by state agents can solve these issues. The documental ethnography range from laws, decrees, norms and a series of regulations and official documentation that synthesize, describe and qualify an idea of border, which transformed itself, a short period of time, from a policy aimed at strategic development and regional for a security governance and control of mobility, transit and displacement regimes. I conclude that the management modalities around Enafron encompass modes of repression and protection anchored in an imagination about what and who should be repressed and what and who should be protected.

Mathematical modeling of epidemiological phenomena, using systems of differential equations, combined with the evolution of computational techniques, increasingly contributes to decision-making processes, prevention and control of diseases. This Course Completion Work has as its theme studies on the Covid-19 pandemic in Brazil and in the city of Sorocaba/SP, making use of the compartmental mathematical model SIR (Susceptible, Infected and Removed), which was solved numerically via Euler's method. The objectives consisted of running simulations of the model, in Python language, collecting real Covid-19 data in the country and in the municipality, estimating the system parameters and plotting graphs capable of helping to understand the dynamics of the pandemic. Data regarding Brazil were taken from the Coronavirus Brasil digital platform, made available by the Federal Government in partnership with the country's health units. The information regarding the municipality of Sorocaba was collected on the SP Covid-19 Info Tracker digital platform, prepared by a committee of researchers from Unesp, USP and CeMai, which centralized the records in daily Covid-19 bulletins, taking into account the data provided by the municipalities of the state of São Paulo. This research began in a scientific initiation project, developed between 2020 and 2021 and arose from the great need for knowledge about the spread of the disease across the country and the search for alternatives that were appropriate for making satisfactory predictions, with a minimum of resources possible. The results achieved showed the importance of an adequate adjustment for the disease transmission parameter and confirmed that it is possible for a relatively simple SIR model to produce solutions in the same order of magnitude as the real data, serving as a forecasting tool to a certain extent of the pandemic. In addition, a model like this allows validating the application of public measures, verifying whether there has been an increase or decrease in the number of cases, in relation to what was expected.
