RESUMO Objetivo: Avaliar a sazonalidade da bronquiolite aguda no Brasil durante a temporada 2020–2022 e compará-la com a das temporadas anteriores. Métodos: Os dados de incidência de internações por bronquiolite aguda em lactentes <1 ano de idade foram obtidos do Departamento de Informática da base de dados da Saúde Pública Brasileira para o período entre 2016 e 2022. Esses dados também foram analisados por macrorregiões do Brasil (Norte, Nordeste, Sudeste, Sul e Centro-Oeste). Para descrever características sazonais e de tendência ao longo do tempo, utilizamos o Modelo de Médias Móveis Integradas Autorregressivas Sazonais. Resultados: Em comparação com o período pré-COVID-19, a incidência de hospitalizações relacionadas com bronquiolite aguda diminuiu 97% durante as intervenções não farmacológicas (março de 2020 – agosto de 2021), mas aumentou 95% após a flexibilização das intervenções não farmacológicas (setembro de 2021 – dezembro de 2022), resultando no aumento geral de 16%. Durante o período pré-COVID-19, as hospitalizações por bronquiolite aguda seguiram um padrão sazonal, que foi interrompido em 2020–2021, mas recuperaram-se em 2022, com um pico ocorrido em maio, aproximadamente 4% superior ao pico pré-COVID-19. Conclusões: Este estudo ressalta a influência significativa das intervenções contra a COVID-19 nas hospitalizações por bronquiolite aguda no Brasil. A restauração de um padrão sazonal em 2022 sublinha a interação entre as medidas de saúde pública e a dinâmica das doenças respiratórias em crianças pequenas.

ABSTRACT Objective: To evaluate the seasonality of acute bronchiolitis in Brazil during the 2020–2022 season and compare it with the previous seasons. Methods: Data from the incidence of hospitalizations due to acute bronchiolitis in infants <1 year of age were obtained from the Department of Informatics of the Brazilian Public Health database for the period between 2016 and 2022. These data were also analyzed by macro-regions of Brazil (North, Northeast, Southeast, South, and Midwest). To describe seasonal and trend characteristics over time, we used the Seasonal Autoregressive Integrated Moving Averages Model. Results: Compared to the pre-COVID-19 period, the incidence of hospitalizations related to acute bronchiolitis decreased by 97% during non-pharmacological interventions (March 2020 – August 2021) but increased by 95% after non-pharmacological interventions relaxation (September 2021 – December 2022), resulting in a 16% overall increase. During the pre-COVID-19 period, hospitalizations for acute bronchiolitis followed a seasonal pattern, which was disrupted in 2020–2021 but recovered in 2022, with a peak occurring in May, approximately 4% higher than the pre-COVID-19 peak. Conclusions: This study underscores the significant influence of COVID-19 interventions on acute bronchiolitis hospitalizations in Brazil. The restoration of a seasonal pattern in 2022 highlights the interplay between public health measures and respiratory illness dynamics in young children.

Abstract Objective: investigating the factors driving bidirectional relationships (i.e., “scientific research with considerations towards the immediate use of results” and “scientific research without considerations towards the immediate use of results”) established between research groups (RGs) and Brazilian small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). Methodology/approach: estimating four logistic regression models to investigate the factors driving bidirectional relationships between RGs from the Brazilian Directory of Research Groups (DRG) of the National Council for Scientific and Technological Development and 1,819 companies with up to 499 employees. Main results: the economic sector and the access to public funding can influence the establishment of bidirectional relationships between RGs and SMEs. Some specificities of factors driving bidirectional relationships are identified in SMEs’ different size ranges. Theoretical/methodological contributions: adopting a comprehensive database on collaborations between RGs and SMEs, based on information deriving from the Directory of Research Groups and from the Annual Report of Social Information, and approaching to a topic that remains poorly investigated in the literature. Relevance/originality: assessing how different driver categories influence the establishment of bidirectional relationships between RGs and SMEs and featuring the factors driving these relationships in interactive companies’ different size ranges. Social/Management Contributions: Innovation policy should address the factors driving knowledge-related cooperation between public research organizations and SMEs.

RESUMO Introdução: a medição da gravidade das lesões traumáticas é essencial para prever os desfechos clínicos. Enquanto o Injury Severity Score (ISS) tem limitações ao atribuir pontuações às lesões no mesmo local, o New Injury Severity Score (NISS) corrige esse problema ao considerar as três lesões mais graves independentemente da região corporal. Este estudo visa entender o perfil clínico-epidemiológico dos pacientes traumatizados, comparando a eficácia das escalas para prever mortalidade. Métodos: estudo descritivo, observacional e retrospectivo utilizando registros de pacientes submetidos à toracotomia no Hospital das Clínicas da Universidade Federal do Triângulo Mineiro entre 2000 e 2019. Dados demográficos, mecanismos de lesão, órgãos afetados, tempo de internação e mortalidade foram analisados. A gravidade das lesões foi avaliada usando o ISS e NISS, e as análises estatísticas foram conduzidas no MedCalc e SigmaPlot. Resultados: Foram avaliados 101 pacientes, em média com 29,6 anos, sendo 86,13% homens. A média da internação foi de 10,9 dias e a taxa de mortalidade foi de 28,7%. A análise da curva ROC revelou uma sensibilidade de 68,97%, especificidade de 80,56% e área sob a curva de 0,837 para o ISS, e 58,62%, 94,44% e 0,855 para o NISS, respectivamente. O índice de Youden indicou 0,49 para o ISS e 0,53 para o NISS. Conclusão: o estudo demonstrou semelhante eficácia entre o NISS e o ISS na previsão de mortalidade. Esses resultados geram implicações importantes na aplicação dessas escalas no ambiente hospitalar. É essencial que os profissionais conheçam tais escalas para aplica-las adequadamente no contexto de cada paciente.

ABSTRACT Introduction: measuring the severity of traumatic injuries is crucial for predicting clinical outcomes. Whereas the Injury Severity Score (ISS) has limitations in assigning scores to injuries at the same site, the New Injury Severity Score (NISS) corrects for this problem by taking into account the three most severe injuries regardless of the region of the body. This study seeks to comprehend the clinical and epidemiological profile of trauma patients while comparing the effectiveness of scales for predicting mortality. Methods: a descriptive, observational and retrospective study using records of patients who underwent thoracotomy at the Hospital das Clínicas of the Federal University of Triângulo Mineiro between 2000 and 2019. Demographic data, mechanisms of injury, affected organs, length of stay and mortality were analyzed. Injury severity was assessed using the ISS and NISS, and statistical analyses were conducted using MedCalc and SigmaPlot. Results: 101 patients were assessed, on average 29.6 years old, 86.13% of whom were men. The average duration of hospitalization was 10.9 days and the mortality rate was 28.7%. The ROC curve analysis revealed a sensitivity of 68.97%, specificity of 80.56% and area under the curve of 0.837 for the ISS, and 58.62%, 94.44% and 0.855 for the NISS, respectively. The Youden index was 0.49 for the ISS and 0.53 for the NISS. Conclusion: the study demonstrated comparable efficacy of NISS and ISS in predicting mortality. These findings hold significance in the hospital setting. Professionals must be familiar with these scales to utilize them competently for each patient.

ABSTRACT The limited temporal completeness and taxonomic accuracy of species lists, made available in a traditional manner in scientific publications, has always represented a problem. These lists are invariably limited to a few taxonomic groups and do not represent up-to-date knowledge of all species and classifications. In this context, the Brazilian megadiverse fauna is no exception, and the Catálogo Taxonômico da Fauna do Brasil (CTFB) (http://fauna.jbrj.gov.br/), made public in 2015, represents a database on biodiversity anchored on a list of valid and expertly recognized scientific names of animals in Brazil. The CTFB is updated in near real time by a team of more than 800 specialists. By January 1, 2024, the CTFB compiled 133,691 nominal species, with 125,138 that were considered valid. Most of the valid species were arthropods (82.3%, with more than 102,000 species) and chordates (7.69%, with over 11,000 species). These taxa were followed by a cluster composed of Mollusca (3,567 species), Platyhelminthes (2,292 species), Annelida (1,833 species), and Nematoda (1,447 species). All remaining groups had less than 1,000 species reported in Brazil, with Cnidaria (831 species), Porifera (628 species), Rotifera (606 species), and Bryozoa (520 species) representing those with more than 500 species. Analysis of the CTFB database can facilitate and direct efforts towards the discovery of new species in Brazil, but it is also fundamental in providing the best available list of valid nominal species to users, including those in science, health, conservation efforts, and any initiative involving animals. The importance of the CTFB is evidenced by the elevated number of citations in the scientific literature in diverse areas of biology, law, anthropology, education, forensic science, and veterinary science, among others. publications problem uptodate up date classifications context exception (CTFB http//fauna.jbrj.gov.br/, httpfaunajbrjgovbr http //fauna.jbrj.gov.br/ , jbrj gov br (http://fauna.jbrj.gov.br/) 2015 Brazil 80 specialists 1 2024 133691 133 691 133,69 125138 125 138 125,13 82.3%, 823 82 3 (82.3% 102000 102 000 102,00 7.69%, 769 7 69 (7.69% 11000 11 11,00 . 3,567 3567 567 (3,56 2,292 2292 2 292 (2,29 1,833 1833 833 (1,83 1,447 1447 447 (1,44 1000 1,00 831 (83 628 (62 606 (60 520 (52 50 users science health biology law anthropology education others http//fauna.jbrj.gov.br/ faunajbrjgovbr //fauna.jbrj.gov.br (http://fauna.jbrj.gov.br/ 201 8 202 13369 13 133,6 12513 12 125,1 82.3% (82.3 10200 10 00 102,0 7.69% 76 6 (7.69 1100 11,0 3,56 356 56 (3,5 2,29 229 29 (2,2 1,83 183 83 (1,8 1,44 144 44 (1,4 100 1,0 (8 62 (6 60 52 (5 5 http//fauna.jbrj.gov.br (http://fauna.jbrj.gov.br 20 1336 133, 1251 125, 82.3 (82. 1020 0 102, 7.69 (7.6 110 11, 3,5 35 (3, 2,2 22 (2, 1,8 18 (1, 1,4 14 4 ( 82.

Abstract: The minimally invasive endodontic access is not directly associated with tooth discoloration in the presence of bioceramic or epoxy resin-based root canal sealers. This study aimed to evaluate the influence of minimally invasive access and endodontic sealer composition on the color stability of endodontically-treated teeth, the restorative material adaptation, and the presence of remaining filling material in the pulp chamber. Endodontic access surgery was performed in maxillary central incisors, either through conservative or minimally invasive approaches, and the root was filled with AH Plus or Bio-C Sealer. The crown color was measured with a spectrophotometer at baseline and after root obturation, restoration, and specimen storage for one year in an oven. The occurrence of voids in the restoration and the remaining filling material was analyzed using micro-CT scans. The Yellowness Index (YI) and color changes (∆E00) were calculated after each color measurement. Data of micro-CT were submitted to 2-way ANOVA, and YI and ∆E00 were analyzed with repeated-measures ANOVA. Pair-wise comparisons were performed with Tukey's test (α = 0.05). The experimental conditions had no effect on the presence of the remaining material. The minimally invasive access associated with Bio-C Sealer resulted in more voids between the restoration and the remaining filling material. Only the evaluation time affected YI and ∆E00 values. Specimens became more yellow after filling and storage in the oven (the highest ∆E00 values). The present study showed that sealer and minimally invasive cavities are not associated with crown color stability following endodontic treatment.

Abstract The study of corneal biomechanics has become relevant in recent years due to its possible applications in the diagnosis, management, and treatment of various diseases such as glaucoma, keratorefractive surgery and different corneal diseases. The clinical biomechanical investigation has become of great importance in the setting of refractive surgery to identify patients at higher risk of developing iatrogenic ectasia. This review focuses on two of the technologies available for clinical use, the Ocular Response Analyzer (Reichert Ophthalmic Instruments, Buffalo, NY, USA) and the Corvis ST (Oculus Optikgergäte GmbH, Wetzlar, Germany). Both are non-contact tonometers that provided a clinical evaluation of corneal biomechanics. The fundamentals and main parameters of each device are described, as well as their use in eye surgery and the corneal biomechanical behavior in eye diseases. Finally, we will discuss the more recent Brillouin microscopy biomechanical analysis, and the integration Scheimpflug-based corneal tomography and biomechanical data with artificial intelligence to increase accuracy to detect risk of ectasia.
Resumen El estudio de la biomecánica corneal ha cobrado relevancia en los últimos años debido a sus posibles aplicaciones en el diagnóstico, el manejo y el tratamiento de diversas enfermedades, como glaucoma, cirugía queratorrefractiva y diferentes enfermedades corneales. La investigación de la biomecánica corneal es de mucha importancia en el contexto de cirugía refractiva, pues podría identificar pacientes en riesgo de desarrollar una ectasia corneal iatrogénica. Esta revisión se centra en dos de las tecnologías disponibles para uso clínico: el Ocular Response Analyzer (Reichert Ophthalmic Instruments, Buffalo, NY, EE. UU.) y el Corvis ST (Oculus Optikgergäte GmbH, Wetzlar, Alemania). Ambos son tonómetros de no contacto que proporcionan una evaluación clínica de la biomecánica corneal. Se describen los fundamentos y los principales parámetros de cada dispositivo, así como su uso en cirugía ocular y el comportamiento biomecánico corneal en las enfermedades oculares. Finalmente, se mencionan los dispositivos más recientes de análisis biomecánico, como la microscopía de Brillouin, así como la integración de los datos biomecánicos y topográficos basados en Scheimpflug con la inteligencia artificial para aumentar la precisión en la detección del riesgo de ectasias.

Resumo O objetivo deste trabalho é investigar os fatores direcionadores (drivers) da intensidade da interação entre pequenas e médias empresas (PMEs) brasileiras e universidades e institutos públicos de pesquisa. Informações do Diretório dos Grupos de Pesquisa no Brasil referentes às áreas de Engenharia e Ciências Agrárias e da Relação Anual de Informações Sociais foram utilizadas na estimação de quatro modelos econométricos que exploram os drivers relacionados às características estruturais e comportamentais das empresas interativas, aos seus relacionamentos com grupos de pesquisa e à política de ciência, tecnologia e inovação. Os resultados mostram que o porte, a experiência prévia em colaboração e a capacidade de absorção, que refletem capacitações e recursos internos das empresas para cooperar, em adição ao acesso ao financiamento público, são fatores que influenciam a intensidade da interação das PMEs. Ademais, é possível identificar especificidades dos fatores direcionadores da intensidade da interação quando essas empresas são separadas por faixas de porte.

Abstract This work aims to investigate the drivers of the intensity of the interaction between small and medium-sized (SMEs) Brazilian enterprises and universities and public research institutes. Data from the Directory of Research Groups in Brazil in the areas of Engineering and Agricultural Sciences and the Annual Report of Social Information were used to estimate four econometric models that explore the drivers related to the structural and behavioural characteristics of the interactive companies, their relationships with research groups, and the science, technology, and innovation policy. The results show that the size, previous experience in collaboration, and absorptive capacity, which reflect the company’s capabilities and internal resources to cooperate, in addition to access to public funding, are factors that influence the intensity of the interaction of SMEs. Furthermore, it is possible to identify the specificities of the drivers of the intensity of the interaction when these companies are separated by size ranges. mediumsized medium sized SMEs (SMEs institutes groups science technology policy collaboration capacity companys company s cooperate funding Furthermore ranges

Resumo Antecedentes Evidências indicam uma forte ligação entre o vírus Zika (ZikV) e complicações neurológicas. Mielite aguda, neurite óptica, polineuropatia e encefalomielite que mimetizam distúrbios inflamatórios de desmielinização idiopáticos (DDII) após infecção por ZikV têm sido relatadas no Brasil. Obejtivo O presente estudo tem como objetivo investigar a possível ocorrência de mimetismo molecular entre antígenos do ZikV e autoantígenos da Esclerose Múltipla (EM), a DDII mais frequente do sistema nervoso central (SNC). Métodos Foi realizado um estudo de coorte retrospectivo com 305 pacientes internados por suspeita de infecção por arbovirus no Rio de Janeiro, todos os indivíduos foram submetidos a exame neurológico e coleta de amostra biológica para diagnóstico sorológico e molecular. Ferramentas de bioinformática foram usadas para analisar os peptídeos compartilhados entre antígenos do ZikV e autoantígenos da EM. Resultados Dos 305 pacientes, vinte e seis foram positivos para ZikV e 4 apresentaram padrão IDD encontrado em casos de EM. As comparações de homologia de sequência por abordagem de bioinformática entre a proteína NS5 ZikV e PLP EM revelaram uma homologia de 5/6 aminoácidos consecutivos (CSSVPV/CSAVPV) com 83% de identidade, deduzindo um mimetismo molecular. A análise das estruturas 3D revelou uma conformação semelhante com apresentação em alfa-hélice. Conclusões O mimetismo molecular entre o antígeno NS5 do vírus Zika e o autoantígeno PLP da EM surge como um possível mecanismo para o espectro IDD em indivíduos geneticamente suscetíveis.

Abstract Background Evidence indicates a strong link between Zika virus (ZikV) and neurological complications. Acute myelitis, optic neuritis, polyneuropathy, and encephalomyelitis that mimic inflammatory idiopathic demyelination disorders (HDD) after ZikV infection have been reported in Brazil. Objective The present study aims to investigate the possible occurrence of molecular mimicry between ZikV antigens and Multiple Sclerosis (MS) autoantigens, the most frequent HDD of the central nervous system (CNS). Methods A retrospective cohort study with 305 patients admitted due to suspected arbovirus infection in Rio de Janeiro was performed, all subjects were submitted to neurological examination, and a biological sample was collected for serologic and molecular diagnostic. Bioinformatics tools were used to analyze the peptides shared between ZikV antigens and MS autoantigens. Results Of 305 patients, twenty-six were positive for ZikV and 4 presented IDD patterns found in MS cases. Sequence homology comparisons by bioinformatics approach between NS5 ZikV and PLP MS protein revealed a homology of 5/6 consecutive amino acids (CSSVPV/CSAVPV) with 83% identity, deducing a molecular mimicry. Analysis of the 3D structures revealed a similar conformation with alpha helix presentation. Conclusions Molecular mimicry between NS5 Zika virus antigen and PLP MS autoantigens emerge as a possible mechanism for IDD spectrum in genetically susceptible individuals.

RESUMO RACIONAL: A acalasia é uma desordem da motilidade esofágica, com apresentação clínica de disfagia e regurgitação, uma condição crônica sem cura. As opções de tratamentos atuais visam reduzir o tônus do esfíncter esofagiano inferior (EEI) por meios farmacológicos, endoscópicos ou cirúrgicos, com o objetivo de aliviar os sintomas dos pacientes. A miotomia endoscópica peroral, sigla do inglês (POEM) é uma cirurgia endoscópica alternativa à cardiomiotomia a Heller (CH), em que a miotomia é realizada por via oral, por endoscopia, oferecendo eficácia comparável a miotomia cirúrgica, com relativa facilidade e mínima invasão, sem incisões externas. OBJETIVOS: Analisar a segurança do POEM analisando seus resultados, eventos adversos, complicações perioperatórias e suas principais formas de contorná-los, além de avaliar a eficácia do procedimento e a qualidade de vida pós-operatória, em curto prazo. MÉTODOS: Estudo qualitativo e quantitativo, observacional e transversal avaliando pacientes que realizaram o POEM em um centro de referência, entre dezembro de 2016 até dezembro de 2022, mantendo padrão técnico de preparo pré, peri e pós-operatório. RESULTADOS: Foram incluídos no estudo 94 pacientes e apenas 3 apresentaram complicações pós-operátorias. O escore de Eckardt médio precoce pós-operatório foi de 0,93 e o tardio de 1,40, com melhora média de 7,1 em resultados precoces e de 6,63 em resultados tardios (p<0,05). CONCLUSÕES: O POEM pode ser reproduzido com excelente perfil de segurança, alívio significativo dos sintomas e melhora do esvaziamento do esôfago, oferecendo melhora na qualidade de vida.

ABSTRACT BACKGROUND: Achalasia is an esophageal motility disorder, with clinical presentation of dysphagia and regurgitation. This is a chronic condition with no cure. Current treatment options aim to reduce lower esophageal sphincter tone by pharmacological, endoscopic or surgical means, with the aim of improving patients’ symptoms. Peroral endoscopic myotomy (POEM) is an alternative endoscopic surgery to Heller cardiomyotomy, in which the procedure is performed orally, by endoscopy, offering efficacy comparable to surgical myotomy, with relative ease and minimal invasion, without external incisions. AIMS: To study the safety of POEM by analyzing its results, adverse events and perioperative complications and the main ways to overcome them, in addition to evaluating the effectiveness of the procedure and the short-term postoperative quality of life. METHODS: A qualitative and quantitative, observational and cross-sectional study that analyzed patients who underwent the POEM in a reference center, from December 2016 to December 2022, maintaining the technical standard of pre-, peri- and postoperative protocol. RESULTS: A total of 94 patients were included in the study, and only three had postoperative complications. The average early postoperative Eckardt score was 0.93 and the late 1.40, with a mean improvement of 7.1 in early results and 6.63 in late results (p<0.05). CONCLUSIONS: POEM can be reproduced with an excellent safety profile, significant relief of symptoms and improvement in esophageal emptying, and in quality of life.

ABSTRACT The SISBIOTA-BRASIL was a three-year multimillion-dollar research program of the Brazilian government to document plants and animals in endangered/understudied areas and biomes in Brazil. Distributional patterns and the historical events that generated them are extensively unknown regarding Brazilian fauna and flora. This deficiency hinders the development of conservation policies and the understanding of evolutionary processes. Conservation decisions depend on precise knowledge of the taxonomy and geographic distribution of species. Given such a premise, we proposed to research the diversity of Diptera of the Brazilian western arc of Amazon, Cerrado, and Pantanal in the states of Mato Grosso, Mato Grosso do Sul, and Rondônia. Three important biomes of the South American continent characterize these Brazilian states: Amazon forest, Cerrado (Brazilian Savannah), and Pantanal. Besides their ecological relevance, these biomes historically lack intensive entomological surveys. Therefore, they are much underrepresented in the Brazilian natural history collections and in the scientific literature, which is further aggravated by the fact that these areas are being exponentially and rapidly converted to commercial lands. Our project involved over 90 collaborators from 24 different Brazilian institutions and one from Colombia among researchers, postdocs, graduate and undergraduate students, and technicians. We processed and analyzed nearly 300,000 specimens from ~60 families of Diptera collected with a large variety of methods in the sampled areas. Here, we provide a detailed overview of the genera and species diversity of 41 families treated. Our results point to a total of 2,130 species and 514 genera compiled and identified for the three states altogether, with an increase of 41% and 29% in the numbers of species and genera known for the three states combined, respectively. Overall, the 10 most species-rich families were Tachinidae, Cecidomyiidae, Tabanidae, Psychodidae, Sarcophagidae, Stratiomyidae, Bombyliidae, Syrphidae, Tephritidae, and Asilidae. The 10 most diverse in the number of genera were Tachinidae, Stratiomyidae, Asilidae, Mycetophilidae, Syrphidae, Tabanidae, Muscidae, Dolichopodidae, Sarcophagidae, and Chloropidae. So far, 111 scientific papers were published regarding taxonomic, phylogenetic, and biogeographical aspects of the studied families, with the description of 101 new species and three new genera. We expect that additional publications will result from this investigation because several specimens are now curated and being researched by specialists.

ABSTRACT Pulmonary aspiration of gastric residues during anesthesia is a potentially fatal complication for which no specific treatment is available. The primary way to prevent its occurrence in the context of elective surgeries is adherence to fasting protocols. However, some clinical conditions can prolong the gastric emptying time, and the risk of aspiration may exist despite adequate fasting. Recognizing the risk factors for gastroparesis allows the adoption of preventive methods and is the primary way to reduce morbidity and mortality from pulmonary aspiration. In this scenario, the anesthesiologist can investigate the gastric content by using ultrasound, adjust the anesthetic technique, and even postpone elective surgeries. Here, we describe incidental computed tomography finding of solid contents in the stomach of a patient without prior identification of the risk factors for gastroparesis. The patient underwent elective renal nodule ablation under general anesthesia after fasting for 9 hours. During the procedure, solid contents in the stomach were noted on computed tomography. Subsequently, it was discovered that the patient had been using semaglutide for 6 days and had not disclosed this information. Semaglutide use may represent a new and significant risk factor for anesthesia-related pulmonary aspiration. Until studies provide information on the appropriate perioperative management of patients using semaglutide, anesthesiologists need to adopt preventive measures to avoid aspiration. Awareness of this potential association and open communication among patients, physicians, and anesthesia teams are essential for enhancing patient safety. available protocols However time scenario ultrasound technique Here hours procedure Subsequently anesthesiarelated related physicians safety

RESUMO O objetivo deste artigo é a proposição de uma tipologia de política industrial a partir do diálogo entre as correntes neoschumpeteriana e desenvolvimentista que incorpore em suas diretrizes normativas as transformações no paradigma tecnoprodutivo nas últimas décadas e seus conseguintes impactos na dinâmica concorrencial, inovativa e de acumulação das atividades industriais. O artigo se propõe a realizar um esforço de natureza teórica com implicações normativas a partir da análise da literatura sobre as transformações da natureza de dois objetos: as transformações no paradigma tecnoprodutivo desde os anos 2000 até os esforços rumo ao fomento ao que se convencionou denominar de Indústria 4.0. Como resultado procura-se justificar teoricamente o desenho de políticas industriais que transitem de orientações normativas demasiadamente generalistas em direção a orientações fundamentadas na compreensão simultânea de especificidades das atividades incentivadas a partir dos (i) níveis de capacitações - tecnológicas, produtivas e organizacionais - dos agentes locais, (ii) da análise do potencial grau de efetividade das políticas industriais e (iii) do grau de transversalidade das atividades fomentadas. concorrencial objetos 200 40 4 0 4.0 procurase procura i (i tecnológicas locais ii (ii iii (iii fomentadas 20 4. 2
ABSTRACT The aim of this paper is to propose a typology of industrial policy based on the dialogue between neo-Schumpeterian and developmentalist frameworks that incorporates in its normative guidelines the transformations in the techno-productive paradigm in recent decades and their consequent impacts on the competitive, innovative and accumulation dynamics of industrial activities. The article proposes a theoretical discussion with normative implications based on the analysis of the literature on the transformations in the nature of two objects: the changes in the techno-productive paradigm from the 2000s to the efforts towards the promotion of Industry 4.0. As a result, an attempt is made to theoretically justify the design of industrial policies that shift from overly general normative guidelines towards the ones based on the simultaneous understanding of the combination of three specificities of activities supported: (i) levels of capabilities of agents-technological, productive and organizational, (ii) the analysis of the potential degree of effectiveness of industrial policies and (iii) the degree of transversality of the promoted activities. neoSchumpeterian neo Schumpeterian technoproductive techno competitive objects s 40 4 0 4.0 result supported i (i agentstechnological, agentstechnological agents technological, technological agents-technological organizational ii (ii iii (iii 4.

ABSTRACT ABS resins have wide application in the market, mainly in the manufacture of household appliances, telephones, automotive industry and others, and need to be processed by extrusion for the manufacture of products. The variables used in the process of extrusion of polymers have a direct influence on their mechanical properties. The objective of this study was to evaluate the different speeds of the extruder screw (15, 30, 45 and 60 rpm) on the mechanical properties of raw ABS after the extrusion process. Izod impact resistance and tensile tests, were also performed. The fractures of the samples tested by Izod impact were observed via optical microscopy, scanning electronic microscopy (SEM), and roughness was measured. Calorimetric tests (DSC) and thermogravimetry (TGA), as well as melt flow index (MFI), were also performed. The most significant results were observed for the extruder screw speed of 60 rpm. For the impact test, a reduction in impact energy of approximately 3% was observed, with the same result for tensile resistance. However, an increase in the value of the elastic modulus and the MFI was observed due to the increase in the degree of crystallinity, which was caused by the higher shear of the polymer mass in the screw of the extrusion equipment. Additionally, an atypical case occurred for the ABS polymer in the highest rotation, since it was the polymer that suffered the greatest shear in the polymer chains due to the degradation of the butadiene phase. market appliances telephones others products 15, 15 (15 30 4 6 rpm performed SEM, SEM , (SEM) measured DSC (DSC TGA, TGA (TGA) MFI, (MFI) test 3 However crystallinity equipment Additionally rotation phase 1 (1 (SEM (TGA (MFI (

RESUMO Objetivo: Desenvolver e aplicar um questionário eletrônico para avaliação do conhecimento em cirurgia refrativa na população analisada. Métodos: Foi aplicado um questionário eletrônico a uma população composta de 840 participantes voluntários maiores de 18 anos. Resultados: A média da idade dos participantes foi 37,85 anos, sendo 60,1% do feminino. Dentre os participantes, 20,95% reportaram ter sido submetidos a alguma cirurgia ocular prévia, sendo 73,86% com objetivo refrativo. Entre estes, 73,08% mostraram-se satisfeitos/muito satisfeitos com o resultado. O critério mais importante na escolha de um cirurgião refrativo foi a indicação por um conhecido que realizara a cirurgia (43,81%). Destaca-se que os participantes submetidos à cirurgia refrativa discordaram que “a cirurgia é um procedimento simples e isento de riscos” mais do que as demais pessoas (p=0,0045) e também que “o objetivo principal da cirurgia é ‘zerar’ o grau” (p=0,0252). Conclusão: Nota-se a necessidade de melhorar o conhecimento pré-operatório da população sobre cirurgia refrativa e também de educação continuada para os oftalmologistas. Este estudo fomenta o desenvolvimento de novas ferramentas de educação com informações claras e de fácil acesso, que tenham caráter informativo, e não de convencimento.

ABSTRACT Objective: The purpose of this study was to develop and apply an online questionnaire to assess knowledge in Refractive Surgery in the analyzed population. Methods: An online questionnaire was applied to a population composed of 840 volunteer participants over 18 years of age. Results: The mean age of population was 37.85 years, of whom 60.1% were female. 20.95% of the participants reported having undergone previous eye surgery, 73.86% of which had a refractive objective. Among these, 73.08% were satisfied / very satisfied with the result. The most important criterion when choosing a refractive surgeon was the indication by a friend who underwent the procedure (43.81%). It is noteworthy that the participants who underwent refractive surgery disagreed more than the other people that “the surgery is a simple and risk-free procedure” (p = 0.0045) and that “the main objective of the surgery is to “zero” the diopter” (p = 0.0252). Conclusion: It is essential to improve population's preoperative knowledge about Refractive Surgery, as well as continuing education for ophthalmologists. Therefore, this study encourages the development of new education tools with clear and easily accessible information, which should be informative, and not convincing.

RESUMO Objetivo Avaliar a precisão da tomografia corneana com imagens de Scheimpflug (Pentacam® AXL, OCULUS, Wetzlar, Alemanha) nos padrões de escaneamento com 25 e 50 imagens, verificando sua repetibilidade e reprodutibilidade em olhos normais, com ceratocone e com ceratocone após crosslinking. Métodos Estudo prospectivo, transversal, misto, no qual foram incluídos os pacientes que tinham córneas normais, ou com ceratocone; e não tinham realizado cirurgias corneanas, com exceção do crosslinking. Foram excluídos os pacientes que tivessem realizado outras cirurgias, como implante de anel intracorneano ou transplante de córnea. Foram realizadas três medidas com 25 imagens e três medidas com 50 imagens em cada olho incluído no estudo. Resultados O estudo avaliou 54 olhos de 41 pacientes. Destes, dez (18,52%) olhos eram com córneas normais e sem cirurgia ocular prévia aleatoriamente selecionados de 5 pacientes; 22 (40,74%) olhos aleatoriamente selecionados de 18 pacientes com ceratocone, sem cirurgia ocular prévia; e 22 (40,74%) olhos com ceratocone de 18 pacientes operados por crosslinking. No estudo da repetibilidade, percebemos uma maior variação de valores em todos os índices nos pacientes com ceratocone comparados aos de pacientes com olhos normais, em grande parte dos parâmetros analisados. Conclusão Não houve diferença significativa entre os métodos de escaneamento por 25 e 50 imagens, sendo o escaneamento por 25 imagens mais conveniente. A presença de ceratocone teve impacto negativo na repetibilidade de ambos os tipos de exame, e foi grande a concordância entre os métodos nos três grupos estudados. O coeficiente de repetibilidade permite considerar a relevância clínica dos dados para avaliar a progressão de ceratocone.

ABSTRACT Objective To evaluate the accuracy of corneal tomography with Scheimpflug images (Pentacam® AXL, OCULUS, Wetzlar, Germany) in scanning patterns with 25 and 50 images, by analyzing their repeatability and reproducibility in normal eyes, eyes with keratoconus and with keratoconus after crosslinking. Methods Prospective, cross-sectional, mixed study including patients who had normal corneas, or who had keratoconus, who had not undergone corneal surgery, with the exception of crosslinking. Patients who had undergone surgery for intracorneal ring implantation or corneal transplantation were excluded. Three measurements were performed with 25 images and three measurements were performed with 50 images on each eye included in the study. Results The study evaluated a total of 54 eyes of 41 patients. Of these, 10 (18.52%) eyes had normal corneas, without previous eye surgery, 22 (40.74%) were eyes with keratoconus, without previous eye surgery, and 22 (40.74%) were eyes with keratoconus, with crosslinking for keratoconus. In the study of repeatability, we noticed a greater variation of values in all indices in patients with KC compared to those with normal eyes, in most of the parameters analyzed. Conclusion There is no significant difference between the scanning methods with 25 and 50 images. However, 25 scans has advantages that make it the main method suggested. The presence of keratoconus has a negative impact on the repeatability of both types of examination, and there is great agreement between the methods in the three groups studied. The high repeatability coefficient in some parameters suggests that these data should be used with care in the assessment of keratoconus progression.
