Abstract: Assuming that youth is a fruitful position for the analysis of society and that school and work act as anchors in the process of socialization, we present a research excerpt collected in 2019, involving 934 valid questionnaires. Focused on the theme of the relationship between education and work and targeting the age group of 18 to 24 years, the study aims to explore variations in occupations in terms of race/color, socioeconomic group (GSE), and gender. The analysis of variations in anchors for these divisions demonstrates trends that outline specific characteristics of the analyzed groups in terms of intensity, institutional fragilities, and ambiguities found in such transitions. This shows, on the one hand, the effectiveness of analyses based on the anchoring of occupations and, on the other hand, indicates the need for further studies for a deeper understanding of the subject.

Resumo: Pressupondo que a juventude é uma posição profícua de análise da sociedade e que escola e trabalho funcionam como âncoras no processo de socialização, apresentamos um recorte de pesquisa, coletada em 2019, que contou com 934 questionários válidos, e que, partindo de sua circunscrição à temática das relações entre educação e trabalho e da focalização da faixa etária dos18 aos 24 anos, busca estudar as variações das ocupações em termos de raça/cor, grupo socioeconômico (GSE) e sexo. A análise das variações das ancoragens para essas clivagens demonstra tendências que circunscrevem características específicas aos grupos analisados, em termos de intensidade, das fragilidades institucionais e das ambiguidades encontradas em tais transições. Isso demonstra, por um lado, a eficácia de análises fundadas na ancoragem das ocupações e, por outro, indica necessidade de novos estudos para o seu aprofundamento.

Mixed oxides of pyrochlore structure of the type La2Zr2O7 and La2M0.3Zr1.7O7 (M = Fe or Ni) were synthesized through the modified proteic method and calcined at 900 °C for 2 h, this is a synthesis route not yet explored for materials with this structure and were characterized by X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy images, point of zero charge (PZC) and specific surface area. Its abilities to remove pollutants from aqueous media by adsorption process were investigated using a model compound. Data analysis revealed that the synthesized materials correspond to the pyrochlore phase (La2Zr2O7). They present particulate morphology with grains of different sizes and pores in their structure. The results of the adsorption studies show that the materials are efficient adsorbents for the removal of model compound in aqueous media, with efficiency above 90%. The adsorption kinetics of the compound in the adsorbents was studied. The materials were applied in reuse studies five times and maintained high efficiencies, highlighting the better performance presented by the material without doping. The obtained adsorbents were also submitted to removal of contaminants of industrial effluent tests and compared with the silica gel and activated carbon materials and also proved to be promising materials.

Abstract Upcoming Earth Exploration Satellite Services (EESS) missions, especially to monitor Brazilian diversified biomes, will require progressively higher data rates for downlink transmissions, besides the ability to share its frequency spectrum with cellular base stations. Both impact issues on spectral efficiency (in bps/Hz) and coexistence in frequency, time, location, etc. This paper proposes a technique suitable for LEO Earth Observation Satellites (EOS) by combining two strategies. We initially present the Cognitive Radio (CR) spectrum awareness and exploitation approaches to propose techniques for improving their uses. Next, we detail the Adaptive MODulation and CODing (MODCOD) techniques (ACM) based on DVB-S2X systems to increase RF power and spectral efficiencies. Finally, we evaluate our solution by monitoring the Signal to Interference plus Noise Ratio (SINR) and combining CR/MODCOD techniques. Two case studies are presented that demonstrate the proposed approach on Brazilian satellites developed by the National Institute for Space Research (INPE). A real in-situ characterization of the interfering scenarios was performed during the passes of the two EESS satellites that proves the effectiveness of spectral efficiency and coexistence.

ABSTRACT Objective: To evaluate the impact of chronic illness caused by chikungunya fever on the quality of life and functionality of affected individuals. Methods: A cross-sectional and comparative study was conducted in which two groups were investigated: a Chikungunya Group comprising 25 patients with chronic fever screened after 1 year of illness via a telephonic survey, and a Healthy Group comprising 25 healthy individuals matched for sex and age by face-to-face interview. The Stanford HAQ 20-Item Disability Scale (HAQ) and the Short Form Health Survey (SF-12) questionnaires were administered to both groups. Generalized Linear Models, Pearson χ2 tests, and odds ratios were used to evaluate the test results. Results: Significant differences in functional capacity and quality of life were observed between the Chikungunya and Healthy Groups. The chance of some impairment in functionality was also much higher in the Chikungunya Group in four of the HAQ categories, especially in the "walking" category (adjusted OR= 109.40). Further, the Chikungunya Group had a higher chance of presenting a below-average score in the mental component summary of the SF-12 (adjusted OR= 16.20) and of being positive in depression risk screening (adjusted OR= 34.57). Conclusion: Even one year after the acute phase, chikungunya fever can compromise the functionality and quality of life in affected individuals, with direct impairment in performing daily activities. Studies and therapeutic plans for chikungunya fever should consider the long-term impacts of this disease.

LaNiO3 material was synthesized by modified proteic method, calcined at 900 °C/2 h in air atmosphere and was applied to remove environmental contaminants. LaNiO3 phase with a perovskite structure was formed in the calcined material, which has a surface area of 22 m2 g-1 and is formed by fine particles agglomerated, with pH of the zero charge point of 7.44. The removal of a model pollutant (Turquoise Blue dye) indicated that the better removal occurs in acidic pH and with adsorbent’s mass of 50 mg, showing average value around 90% of removal efficiency and 131 mg g-1 for adsorption capacity (q) value. The variable constants model was the one that best fit the kinetic. LaNiO3 material resisted the test conditions and the recovery process, and maintained its high adsorption capacity throughout the six regeneration cycles studied, which indicates that it is a promising material as an adsorbent of pollutants and does not generate waste during the process.

Abstract Over the years, aircraft and spacecraft designs incorporated highly integrated and/or complex systems that can manage complex scenarios during its operation. In addition to the inherent complexity and/or high level of integration of those systems, the development process applied to aerospace programs is also challenged by other factors: program schedule, budget, multidisciplinary teams, new industry emerging technologies, large number of different processes and procedures that guide the activities along the development life cycle, and others. Given the fact many tasks executed during the development of such systems require human interaction, that yields the introduction of design errors that can contribute to the occurrence of non-desired system behaviors during operation phase. It is already recognized by the civil aviation industry that it is unfeasible to have a deterministic test set to demonstrate that such systems are completely free of such design errors. In that context, a huge effort is applied by the industry, by using qualitative methods to mitigate the occurrence of design errors during the development phases. This paper discusses how MBSE methodology applied together with a design assurance process could prevent such design errors, and presents an analysis showing how some events in aerospace industry where a design error was one of the contributing factors could be avoided. years andor or schedule budget teams technologies cycle others interaction nondesired non desired phase context phases avoided

RESUMO Devido à pandemia da COVID-19, os projetos de orientação de atividade física (AF) tiveram que adaptar suas atuações para o formato remoto. O objetivo deste estudo foi avaliar os efeitos de uma intervenção remota de AF no risco cardiovascular e na aptidão física em participantes desses projetos. Para isso, 29 participantes do Projeto Exercício e Coração (66±5 anos) foram orientados a realizar, 2 caminhadas, 1 videoaula de exercícios aeróbicos e 2 videoaulas de exercícios de força muscular por semana, sendo cada atividade realizada por 30 min e em intensidade moderada. No início e após 8 semanas, foram medidos marcadores de risco cardiovascular e de aptidão física, que foram comparados por testes t-student ou Wilcoxon, considerando-se p≤0,05. Comparando-se as avaliações pré e pós-intervenção, houve redução da circunferência da cintura (95,9±11,3 vs. 94,7±11,3 cm, p=0,013) e aumento da capacidade cardiorrespiratória (117±21 vs. 123±23 passos, p=0,019), da força dos membros superiores (23±6 vs. 25±6 repetições, p=0,003), da resistência abdominal (20±9 vs. 22±10 repetições, p=0,002) e da aptidão física geral (-0,04±3,55 vs. 1,30±4,10, p=0,000). Em conclusão, a intervenção remota aumentou a aptidão física geral, aumentando a capacidade cardiorrespiratória, a força e a resistência muscular, além de reduzir a obesidade central.

ABSTRACT Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the projects that offer guidance for physical activity (PA) had to be adapted to the remote format. This study aimed at assessing the effects of a remote PA intervention on the cardiovascular risk and physical fitness of the individuals engaged in these projects. Thus, 29 participants of the Brazilian project known as Projeto Exercício e Coração (Exercise and Heart Project) (66±5 years) were instructed to perform 2 walking sessions, 1 aerobic exercise video class and 2 muscle strength video classes per week with each activity lasting 30 min and performed at moderate intensity. At baseline (pre) and after 8 weeks (post), markers of cardiovascular risk and physical fitness were evaluated and compared by using paired t-tests or Wilcoxon signed rank tests considering p≤0.05. When comparing pre- and post-intervention evaluations, there was a significant reduction in waist circumference (95.9±11.3 vs. 94.7±11.3 cm, p=0.013) and significant increases in cardiorespiratory fitness (117±21 vs. 123±23 steps, p=0.019), upper limb strength (23±6 vs. 25±6 repetitions, p=0.003), abdominal endurance (20±9 vs. 22±10 repetitions, p= 0.002) and overall physical fitness (-0.04±3.55 vs. 1.30±4.10, p=0.000). In conclusion, the remote intervention improved general physical fitness, increasing cardiorespiratory fitness, muscle strength and endurance, in addition to reducing central obesity.

RESUMO Garantir o cumprimento dos padrões mínimos de qualidade de água estabelecidos por lei exige medidas estratégicas na bacia afluente. A modelagem da poluição de água serve como ferramenta para orientar a formulação de estratégias eficazes de controle de poluição. No entanto, a complexidade inerente à calibração, à variabilidade espacial-temporal e a incerteza, aliadas ao repasse ineficaz de informações técnicas para os tomadores de decisão, dificultam não apenas a priorização se não a própria efetivação das ações e aplicação dos recursos eficientemente. Sendo assim, este estudo apresenta o desenvolvimento de um Web-GIS que reúne os principais resultados das modelagens hidrológicas para conceder uma visão interativa da bacia do Rio Paranapanema no sul do Brasil. O sistema supera a dificuldade de apresentação de resultados científicos para o gestor, reunindo e harmonizando conjuntos de dados diversos. Combinando informações da bacia hidrográfica, estimativas de carga de poluentes para três substâncias (fósforo, nitrogênio e DBO), as concentrações resultantes em rios e reservatórios, bem como os resultados para diferentes cenários futuros em uma plataforma unificada. Espera-se que a tomada de decisão em relação ao enquadramento de corpos d'água seja facilitada pela identificação das principais fontes e vias de poluição, priorizando as bacias com maior produção de carga e determinando possibilidades realistas de redução da carga por meio de medidas eficazes. afluente entanto calibração espacialtemporal espacial temporal incerteza eficientemente assim WebGIS Web GIS Brasil gestor diversos hidrográfica fósforo, fósforo (fósforo DBO, DBO , DBO) reservatórios unificada Esperase Espera dágua d

ABSTRACT Ensuring compliance with the minimum Water Quality Standards stipulated by law demands the implementation of strategic measures within the watershed. Water pollution modeling serves as a tool to guide the formulations of effective pollution control strategies. However, the inherent complexity of calibration, spatial-temporal variability, and uncertainty, in addition to effective communication of technical information to decision makers, makes it challenging to prioritize actions, implement them, and allocate resources efficiently. This paper presents the implementation of a Web-GIS for decision making support which combines collaborative hydrological and hydrodynamic modeling results with an interactive visualization of the Paranapanema river basin in the South of Brazil. The Web-GIS aimed to overcome the difficulty of presenting scientific results to decision-makers, gathering and harmonizing diverse datasets. Combining information from the watershed, the pollutant loads estimations for three substances (phosphorus, nitrogen, and BOD), the resulting concentrations in rivers and reservoirs, as well as the results for different future scenarios into a unified platform. It is expected that decision-making regarding water bodies framework will be facilitated by identifying the primary sources and pathways of pollution, prioritizing basins with the highest load production, an determining realistic possibilities of load reduction through effective measures. watershed strategies However calibration spatialtemporal spatial temporal variability uncertainty makers actions them efficiently WebGIS Web GIS Brazil decisionmakers, decisionmakers decision-makers datasets phosphorus, phosphorus (phosphorus nitrogen BOD, BOD , BOD) reservoirs platform decisionmaking production

Resumo Este trabalho teve como objetivo caracterizar alguns dos compostos bioativos do fruto da Eugenia punicifolia (Kunth) DC. para aprofundar o conhecimento do seu potencial funcional. Frutos maduros foram coletados da restinga de Maricá-RJ, Brasil. Os compostos bioativos foram analisados por cromatografia líquida de alta eficiência. Os teores de ácido ascórbico (74,14 mg 100-1 g-1), licopeno (504 µg g-1) e carotenoides totais (632 µg g-1) foram superiores aos de outras frutas ricas nesses compostos. Os frutos de E. punicifolia são uma excelente fonte de carotenoides e podem ser considerados uma boa fonte de ácido ascórbico (vitamina C). Além disso, sua composição química apresentou compostos fenólicos, como ácido gálico e antocianinas.

Abstract Objective The Fibromyalgia Rapid Screening Tool (FiRST) was developed to screen people with chronic pain for Fibromyalgia (FM), especially in primary health care settings. This study aimed to translate the FiRST into Brazilian Portuguese and evaluate its measurement properties for an online application. Methods After the process of translation and backtranslation, the FiRST was applied online in 483 adults with chronic pain (FM group n = 395; Chronic pain group n = 88), along with the Numerical Rating Scale for pain and fatigue, the Brief Pain Inventory, and the Fibromyalgia Impact Questionnaire-Revised. A Receiver Operating Characteristics (ROC) curve was computed and the area under the curve (AUC) was used to determine the sensibility, specificity, and cutoff score for the FiRST. The Mann-Whitney test was used for quantitative variables and the Chi-square and the Fisher’s exact test, for the categorical variables with level of significance of 5%. Fleiss’ Kappa, Gwet’s AC1 and percentage of agreement were also calculated between test and retest. Results For all the questionnaires, the FM group presented higher scores, which mean a worst condition. The FiRST presented a sensitivity of 92.3%, and a specificity of 61.6% with 5 as the cut-off score. AUC, Fleiss’ Kappa, Gwet’s AC1 and percentage of agreement were, respectively, 0.82, 0.38, 0.63 and 71.8%. Conclusion The FiRST was translated into Brazilian Portuguese and the online version presented a good content validity and adequate measurement errors that allow FM patients to be screened among people with chronic pain.

To describe the clinical and demographic profile of military firefighters receiving physical therapy care. Methods Physical therapy assessment and care protocols were designed. Protocols were based on manual physical therapy approaches, and aimed primarily to alleviate musculoskeletal pain. Physical therapists involved were duly trained prior to interventions to level technical skills. Physical therapy was provided upon request (i.e., military workers sought the service after work shift completion). Results A total of 318 military firefighters, most of whom were males (92.5%) mean age 32.9 years, received physical therapy care (575 sessions spread out over 48 days). In this sample, 43.4% of military workers had a history of musculoskeletal complaints. Military workers seeking physical therapy after completion of their work shifts reported mean pain intensity of 5.4 in a numerical scale. Spinal pain was reported in 61.7% of cases, followed by generalized muscle and myofascial pain (16.7%), lower and upper limb pain (14.4% and 6.8%, respectively). At the end of sessions, mean pain intensity reported dropped down to 1.3. Differences were statistically significant (non-parametric Wilcoxon test; p=0.001). Conclusion The unprecedented physical therapy intervention described had a positive impact on relief of musculoskeletal pain among military firefighters involved in search and rescue operations during the Brumadinho dam disaster, and seen at the end of their work shifts.

ABSTRACT Purpose: To evaluate fibrosis formation and number of macrophages in capsules formed around textured implants without and with mesh coverage. Methods: Fibrosis was analyzed through transforming growth factor-beta 1 (TGF-β1) immunomarker expression and the number of macrophages through CD68 percentage of cells in magnified field. Sixty female Wistar rats were distributed into two groups of 30 rats (unmeshed and meshed). Each group was then subdivided into two subgroups for postoperative evaluation after 30 and 90 days. The p value was adjusted by Bonferroni lower than 0.012. Results: No difference was observed in fibrosis between meshed and unmeshed groups (30 days p = 0.436; 90 days p = 0.079) and from 30 to 90 days in the unmeshed group (p = 0.426). The meshed group showed higher fibrosis on the 90th day (p = 0.001). The number of macrophages was similar between groups without and with mesh coverage (30 days p = 0.218; 90 days p = 0.044), and similar between subgroups 30 and 90 days (unmeshed p = 0.085; meshed p = 0.059). Conclusions: In the meshed group, fibrosis formation was higher at 90 days and the mesh-covered implants produced capsules similar to microtextured ones when analyzing macrophages. Due to these characteristics, mesh coating did not seem to significantly affect the local fibrosis formation.

ABSTRACT The objective of this work was to carry out qualitative and quantitative studies with species of the Cerambycidae, Bostrichidae, and Curculionidae families (Scolytinae and Platypodinae) in a plantation of balsa wood (Ochroma pyramidale), in the State of Mato Grosso, Brazil, to contribute to the entomological knowledge about the coleoborer species that occur associated with this forest tree. The research was carried out at Fazenda Campina, located at the municipality of Nossa Senhora do Livramento - MT, from July 2015 to June 2016. Ten Escolitídeo/Curitiba modified impact traps were used in biweekly collections, with 3,244 individuals being collected, distributed in 42 species, with Cerambycidae being the most diversified group, with 20 (47.62%) species and Scolytinae (Curculionidae) with 2,681 specimens (82.64%) the most abundant one. Hypothenemus eruditus (Scolytinae) was the predominant species with 1,466 collected individuals, being the only one that occurred as a super-dominant, super-abundant, widespread, and constant species. Chlorida festiva (Cerambycidae), Platypus linearis (Platypodinae), Cryptocarenus diadematus, Cryptocarenus heveae, Cryptocarenus seriatus, and Xyleborus affinis (Scolytinae) were dominant, very abundant, very frequent, and constant species. The species of the Bostrichidae and Curculionidae families were more frequent in the dry season, while the species of the Cerambycidae family were more common in the rainy months. Cryptocarenus heveae, Cryptocarenus seriatus, and Cryptocarenus diadematus showed a significant correlation with relative humidity and the latter with rainfall. The other species analyzed did not show a strong correlation with any climatic element.

RESUMEN El objetivo de este trabajo fue realizar estudios cualitativos y cuantitativos con especies de las familias Cerambycidae, Bostrichidae y Curculionidae (Scolytinae y Platypodinae), en una plantación de madera de balsa (Ochroma pyramidale) en el estado de Mato Grosso, con el objetivo de contribuir al conocimiento entomológico de las especies de coleobrocas que se presentan asociadas a esta especie forestal. La investigación se llevó a cabo en la localidad de Fazenda Campina, ubicada en el municipio de Nossa Senhora do Livramento - MT, de julio de 2015 a junio de 2016. Se utilizaron diez trampas Scolito-Curitiba modificadas en las colectas quincenales. Se recolectaron 3.244 individuos, distribuidos en 42 especies, siendo Cerambycidae la familia diversificada con 20 especies (47,62%) y Scolytinae (Curculionidae) con 2.681 (82,64%), la más abundante en individuos recolectados. Hypothenemus eruditus (Scolytinae) presentó 1.466 (45,19%) predominó en número de individuos colectados, siendo la única especie que se mostró como superdominante, superabundante, superfrecuente y constante. Chlorida festiva (Cerambycidae), Platypus linearis (Platypodinae), Cryptocarenus diadematus, Cryptocarenus heveae, Cryptocarenus seriatus y Xyleborus affinis (Scolytinae) fueron dominantes, muy abundantes, muy frecuentes y constantes. Las especies de las familias Bostrichidae y Curculionidae fueron más representativas en los meses del período seco, mientras que las especies de la familia Cerambycidae fueron más importantes en los meses lluviosos. Cryptocarenus heveae, Cryptocarenus seriatus y Cryptocarenus diadematus mostraron una correlación significativamente más considerable con la humedad relativa, y esta última también con la lluvia. Las otras especies analizadas no mostraron una notable correlación con ningún elemento climático.
