Abstract Background The oral cavity is a link between of external environment with gastrointestinal tract. Studies are controversial on the presence of Periodontal Disease (PD) and its association with Gastric Adenocarcinoma (GAC). Methods The authors performed a systematic review and meta-analysis to verify the association between PD and GAC. Six electronic databases were evaluated between 1961 and 2022. Titles and abstracts were reviewed independently according to the eligibility criteria, assessing full texts of selected studies. The quality of the included research was verified using the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale for case-control and cohort studies. Statistical analyses were performed based on fixed and/or random effects models to calculate the summarized Relative Risk (RR) and its 95 % Confidence Interval (95 % CI). Results There were 639 studies, of which nine articles were included (3 case-controls and 6 cohorts). Overall, the authors identified 1,253 cases of GAC 2,501 controls in case-control studies, and 1,631 patients with GAC enrolled in cohort studies. Patients presenting PD increased the risk of developing GAC by 17 % (RR=1.17; 95 % CI 1.03‒1.32), which remained regardless of the diagnostic method for PD, i.e., clinical examination (RR = 1.19; 95 % CI 1.14‒1.24) and self-report (RR = 1.34; 95 % CI 1.06‒1.69). Moreover, Asian patients (RR=1.17; 95 % CI 1.00‒1.36) with PD had a higher risk of having GAC than American and European patients (RR = 1.18; 95 % CI 0.84‒1.66). Conclusions The presence of PD the risk of GAC suggesting that its infectious-inflammatory process of PD may be related to GAC development. Further investigations on the oral-gastric microbiota and its role in the carcinogenesis of gastric cancer should be carried out, and the screening of patients with potential risk for GAC should be considered in the clinical practice of dentists. tract (PD .

Abstract The objective of this study was to assess the remodeling-associated gene expression in the mandible of patients diagnosed with oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC), investigating the cortical microarchitecture, and their influence on disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS) rates. A total of twenty-four patients who underwent mandibulectomy for OSCC treatment had two bone fragments harvested from the mandible for gene expression (RANK, RANKL, OPG, and SOST), and microarchitecture analysis, including bone volume, surface, mineral density, degree of anisotropy, and fractal dimension. The prognosis of the patients was assessed. The results revealed that RANK, RANKL, and SOST were predominantly downregulated, while OPG was completely downregulated. Tumors located adjacent to the posterior region of the mandible (p = 0.02), with a bone mineral density below 1.03 g/cm3 HA (p = 0.001), and a bone volume less than 86.47% (p = 0.03) were associated with poor outcomes. In conclusion, bone-remodeling-associated genes exhibited downregulation in the cortex of the mandible in OSCC patients. Additionally, the tumor’s location within the mandible, bone volume, and cortical bone mineral density were identified as factors impacting DFS. remodelingassociated remodeling OSCC, , (OSCC) diseasefree disease free DFS (DFS OS (OS rates twentyfour twenty four RANK (RANK RANKL SOST, SOST) analysis surface anisotropy dimension assessed downregulated p 0.02, 002 0.02 0 02 0.02) 103 1 03 1.0 gcm3 gcm g cm3 cm g/cm 0.001, 0001 0.001 001 0.001) 8647 86 47 86.47 0.03 003 outcomes conclusion boneremodelingassociated Additionally tumors tumor s (OSCC 00 0.0 10 1. 000 0.00 864 8 4 86.4 0. 86.

Resumo A presente resenha analisa a obra Être postmoderne, de autoria do sociólogo Michel Maffesoli, publicada pela editora Éditions du Cerf (Paris), ainda sem tradução para a língua portuguesa. Ao longo do livro, o autor reafirma, assim como em obras anteriores, que estamos vivendo em um momento de saturação dos valores modernos e de emergência de valores pós-modernos. Être Postmoderne está estruturado em nove capítulos: 1. L’Oxymore; 2. Juvenoïa; 3. Métapolitique; 4. Sacral; 5. Nous; 6. Initiation; 7. Tradition; 8. Naturalisme; 9. Épinoïa. A leitura dessa obra instiga a pensarmos variadas questões sobre os valores que regem a vida cotidiana na atualidade. Desse modo, o texto examina, sem perder de vista o debate com seus críticos, os principais aspectos discutidos por Maffesoli ao longo do livro.

Abstract This review analyzes the work Être postmoderne, by sociologist Michel Maffesoli, published by Éditions du Cerf (Paris) and still without translation into Portuguese. Throughout the book, the author reaffirms, as well as in previous works, that we are living in a moment of saturation of modern values and the emergence of post-modern values. Étre Postmoderne is divided into nine chapters: 1. L’Oxymore; 2. Juvenoïa; 3. Métapolitique; 4. Sacral; 5. Nous; 6. Initiation; 7. Tradition; 8. Naturalisme; 9. Épinoïa. Reading the work encourages us to think about various questions about the values that govern everyday life today. Thus, this text examines, without losing sight of the debate with its critics, the main aspects discussed throughout the text.

ABSTRACT Solitary fibrous tumor (SFT) is a benign mesenchymal neoplasm originally described in pleura with a rare presentation in the oral cavity. Herein, we report a case of a 28-year-old male patient who presented an asymptomatic slow-growing mass in the anterior part of the tongue. Intraoral examination revealed a well-circumscribed mass covered by normal mucosa with a fibrous consistency. Due to non-specific clinical findings, the initial diagnostic hypotheses include benign submucosal neoplasms such as leiomyoma, neurofibroma, SFT, and others. An excisional biopsy was performed. Microscopically, the tumor was surrounded by a thick fibrous capsule; hypo and hypercellular areas were arranged in a storiform pattern with a stroma formed by collagen and abundant vascularization. Tumor cells showed immunopositivity for CD34 and STAT-6 and no expression of CD99, AML, S-100, and Ki-67. According to these findings, the diagnosis of SFT was established. After 24 months, the patient is asymptomatic and has no evidence of recurrence. Although oral involvement is rare, SFT should be included in the differential diagnosis of oral submucosal lesions.

RESUMO A exploração comercial da cultura do café é uma das atividades mais importantes do setor agropecuário mundial. Um dos principais problemas fitossanitários da cultura é a presença de Meloidogyne incognita. Várias medidas têm sido testadas para o manejo desse patógeno, porém, com baixa eficiência. O objetivo deste trabalho foi quantificar os danos e as perdas e manejar M. incognita raça 1 com nematicidas biológicos à base de Pochonia chlamydosporia e Trichoderma harzianum. O experimento foi conduzido em uma área comercial naturalmente infestada pelo nematoide e cultivada com a variedade de café conilon ‘Vitória INCAPER 81421’, clone V02. Foram testados os tratamentos: nematicida Carbofurano; nematicidas biológicos à base de P. chlamydosporia Pc-10 e T. harzianum ESALQ 1306. Os produtos biológicos foram aplicados isoladamente ou associados. As menores populações finais de nematoides ocorreram em plantas tratadas com P. chlamydosporia e Carbofurano. P. chlamydosporia foi o agente biológico mais eficaz no manejo de M. incognita. Houve redução de produção com o aumento da população do nematoide. Os maiores custos de aplicação dos métodos de manejo para M. incognita raça 1 por hectare foram para três e duas aplicações de Carbofuran e três aplicações de P. chlamydosporia + T. harzianum. Os tratamentos com menores custos de aplicação foram uma aplicação de T. harzianum e uma aplicação de P. chlamydosporia. Conclui-se que todos os tratamentos foram eficientes para o manejo de M. incognita raça 1, acarretando diminuição da população do nematoide nas raízes e no solo.

ABSTRACT Commercial exploitation of the coffee crop is one of the most important activities in the world’s agricultural sector. One of the main phytosanitary problems affecting the crop is the presence of Meloidogyne incognita. Several measures have been tested for the management of this pathogen, albeit with low efficiency. The objective of this work was to quantify the damage and losses and to manage M. incognita race 1 with Pochonia chlamydosporia and Trichoderma harzianum biological nematicides, comparing them to a chemical nematicide. The experiment was carried out in a commercial area naturally infested by the nematode and cultivated with the conilon coffee variety ‘Vitória INCAPER 8142’, clone V02. The treatments were tested with Carbofuran nematicide and with biological nematicides composed of P. chlamydosporia Pc-10 and T. harzianum ESALQ 1306. The biological products were applied alone or in combination. The lowest NPF (final nematode population) occurred in plants treated with P. chlamydosporia and Carbofuran. P. chlamydosporia was the most effective biological agent in the management of M. incognita. There was a reduction in production with an increase in the nematode population. The highest application costs of management methods for M. incognita race 1 per hectare were for three and two applications of Carbofuran and three applications of P. chlamydosporia + T. harzianum. The treatments with lowest application costs were one application of T. harzianum and one application of P. chlamydosporia. It was concluded that all treatments were efficient for the management of M. incognita race 1, causing a decrease in the roots and soil population.

resumo Este ensaio pretende examinar de que maneira Carlos Drummond de Andrade responde, em algumas de suas composições, ao contexto repressivo da ditadura militar no Brasil de meados dos anos 1970. Por meio da análise de um poema e de uma crônica, e levando em conta apontamentos de seu diário, o estudo procura demonstrar como o poeta se viu obrigado a tratar, de forma cifrada, do terrorismo de Estado e das forças políticas então em jogo, o que contraria o juízo quase consensual sobre sua produção no período e reitera o compromisso de Drummond com o seu tempo.

abstract The aim of this paper is to examine how Carlos Drummond de Andrade, in some of his works, responds to the repressive context of the military dictatorship in Brazil in the mid-1970s. Through the analysis of a poem and a short story, and taking into consideration entries in his diary, this study tries to demonstrate how the poet felt obligated to deal cryptically with State terrorism and the political forces then in place, which contradicts the almost universal consensus on his literary production during this period and reiterates the poet’s commitment to his time.

RESUMO Este artigo pretende analisar o relato da viagem que Graciliano Ramos fez à União Soviética e democracias populares no início da década de 1950. Para isso, leva em conta tanto os traços da realidade observada quanto as reações do próprio diarista, de modo a entender como o escritor militante foi capaz de criar uma forma literária que põe em discussão, indiretamente, aspectos cruciais da autocracia stalinista, à época impulsionada pela vitória na Segunda Guerra Mundial e pelo IV Plano Quinquenal. O ensaio recupera também parte da recepção crítica imediata da obra publicada em 1954 a fim de embasar as análises apresentadas.

ABSTRACT This article intends to analyze the accounting of the trip Graciliano Ramos took to the Soviet Union and popular democracies in the beginning of the 1950s. In order to do so, it takes into account both the traces of reality observed and the reactions of the writer himself in order to understand how the militant author was able to create a form which places under discussion, indirectly, key aspects of the stalinist autocracry, which, at the time, boosted by the victory in the post-war, saw its pinnacle. The essay also recovers part of the critical reception immediately after the work was published in 1954, in the interest of laying the foundation for the analysis presented.

Resumo Introdução A expansão rápida da maxila pode alterar a forma e a função do nariz. As alterações do esqueleto e dos tecidos moles podem influenciar a estética e a estabilidade dos resultados obtidos através deste procedimento. Objetivo Avaliar, em curto prazo, os efeitos da expansão rápida da maxila sobre as estruturas esqueléticas e tegumentares do nariz em pacientes respiradores orais por meio de uma metodologia confiável e reprodutível, porém simples, com a ajuda da tomografia computadorizada. Método Foram avaliados 55 pacientes respiradores orais com hipoplasia maxilar que foram divididos em grupo experimental tratado com expansão rápida da maxila (39, 23 do sexo masculino e 16 do feminino, com média de 9,7 anos e desvio padrão de 2,28, variação de 6,5 a 14,7 anos) e um grupo controle (16 pacientes, nove do sexo masculino e sete do feminino, com média de 8,8 anos, desvio padrão de 2,17, variação de 5,11-13,7 anos). Os pacientes do grupo experimental foram submetidos a exames de tomografia computadorizada multislice em dois tempos distintos: (T1) pré-expansão rápida da maxila e (T2) três meses após o procedimento. O grupo controle foi submetido aos mesmos exames nos mesmos intervalos de tempo. Foram avaliadas quatro variáveis esqueléticas e quatro tegumentares comparando-se os resultados de T1 e T2. Resultados O grupo experimental apresentou aumentos significativos em todas as variáveis esqueléticas e tegumentares (p < 0,05), mas não houve alterações significativas no grupo controle. Ao compararem-se o grupo experimental e o grupo controle, foi observado que a alteração mais importante ocorreu na largura da abertura piriforme (p < 0,001). Conclusão A expansão rápida da maxila é capaz de alterar a forma e a função do nariz, promove alterações nas estruturas esqueléticas e dos tecidos moles. Esse tipo de estudo pode, no futuro, permitir o planejamento adequado de procedimentos estéticos na ponta e base do nariz e também a feitura de medidas objetivas em resultados cirúrgicos iniciais ou tardios.

Abstract Introduction Rapid maxillary expansion can change the form and function of the nose. The skeletal and soft tissue changes can influence the esthetics and the stability of the results obtained by the procedure. Objective The aim of this retrospective study was to evaluate the short-term effects of rapid maxillary expansion on the skeletal and soft tissue structures of the nose, in mouth-breathing patients, using a reliable and reproducible, but simple methodology, with the aid of computed tomography. Methods A total of 55 mouth-breathing patients with maxillary hypoplasia were assessed and were divided into an experimental group treated with rapid maxillary expansion(39 patients, 23 of which were male and 16 female, with an average age of 9.7 years and a standard deviation of 2.28, ranging from 6.5 to 14.7 years) and a control group (16 patients, 9 of which were male and 7 female, with an average age of 8.8 years, standard deviation of 2.17, ranging from 5.11 to 13.7 years). The patients of the experimental group were submitted to multislice computed tomography examinations at two different points in time: (T1) pre-rapid maxillary expansion and (T2) three months after the procedure. The control group underwent to the same exams at the same intervals of time. Four skeletal and soft tissue variables were assessed, comparing the results of T1 and T2. Results There was in the experimental group a significant increases in all the skeletal and soft tissue variables (p < 0.05) but no significant alteration was found in the control group. When comparing the experimental group and the control group, the most important change occurred in the width of the pyriform aperture (p < 0.001). Conclusion Rapid maxillary expansion is capable of altering the shape and function of the nose, promoting alterations in skeletal and soft tissue structures. This kind of study may, in the future, permit the proper planning of esthetic procedures at the tip and base of the nose and also the performance of objective measurements in early or late surgical outcomes.

RESUMO Objetivo: avaliar as alterações volumétricas do complexo nasomaxilar em pacientes respiradores bucais com deficiência transversal da maxila tratados com expansão rápida da maxila (ERM). Métodos: foram selecionados 38 pacientes respiradores bucais, independentemente da má oclusão ou raça, portadores de constrição maxilar, e realizou-se um estudo de intervenção, prospectivo, controlado. Para o grupo experimental, foram selecionados 23 pacientes, sendo 11 (47,8%) meninos e 12 (52,2%) meninas, com média de idade de 9,6 anos (variando de 6,4 a 14,2 anos) e desvio-padrão de 2,3 anos; e 15 pacientes para o grupo controle, sendo 9 (60%) meninos e 6 (40%) meninas, com média de idade de 10,5 anos (variando de 8,0 a 13,6 anos) e desvio-padrão de 1,9 anos. Todos os pacientes realizaram exames de tomografia computadorizada (TC), de acordo com protocolo padronizado: TC inicial (T1) e TC após três meses do período de contenção (T2). Os pacientes do grupo experimental foram tratados com expansão rápida da maxila usando um expansor Hyrax para a correção da deficiência transversal durante o intervalo T1-T2. As imagens tomográficas para avaliação volumétrica total e parcial do complexo nasomaxilar foram manipuladas no programa Dolphin ® versão 11.7. Resultados: os resultados revelaram que no grupo experimental houve um aumento significativo no tamanho das estruturas de interesse em comparação com o grupo controle, tanto no geral quanto nas regiões específicas. Conclusões: a expansão rápida da maxila (ERM) promoveu uma expansão significativa de todas as estruturas do complexo nasomaxilar (cavidade nasal, orofaringe, seios maxilares direito e esquerdo).

ABSTRACT Objective: To assess the volumetric changes that occur in the nasomaxillary complex of mouth-breathing patients with transverse maxillary deficiency subjected to rapid maxillary expansion (RME). Methods: This was a controlled, prospective intervention study involving 38 mouth-breathing patients presenting with transverse maxillary deficiency, regardless of malocclusion type or race. Twenty-three of them comprised the experimental group, which was composed of 11 (47.8%) boys, and 12 (52.2%) girls, with a mean age of 9.6 years, ranging from 6.4 to 14.2 years and standard deviation of 2.3 years; and 15 of them comprised the control group, composed of 9 (60%) boys and 6 (40%) girls with an mean age of 10.5 years, ranging from 8.0 to 13.6 years, and standard deviation of 1.9 years. All patients were scanned (CT) according to a standard protocol: Initial CT (T1), and CT three months thereafter (T2), and the patients in the experimental group were treated with RME using a Hyrax expander for the correction of maxillary deficiency during the T1-T2 interval. The CT scans were manipulated using Dolphin® Imaging version 11.7 software for total and partial volumetric assessment of the nasomaxillary complex. Results: The results revealed that in the experimental group there was a significant increase in the size of the structures of interest compared to the control group, both in general aspect and in specific regions. Conclusions: Rapid maxillary expansion (RME) provided a significant expansion in all the structures of the nasomaxillary complex (nasal cavity, oropharynx, right and left maxillary sinuses).

Resumo Este artigo analisa o desenvolvimento de uma pesquisa no campo da Epidemiologia, na interface com a psicologia histórico- cultural, que teve como cenário uma comunidade urbana. A pesquisa pretendia comparar a carga das doenças relacionadas ao diabetes mellitus, a fim de, posteriormente, promover uma prática em saúde, o que significa uma divisão entre diagnóstico e intervenção. Entretanto, durante o processo, uma pesquisa, alternativa a este modelo diagnóstico, foi sendo produzida no processo dialógico entre os envolvidos. Esta prática - nomeada de pesquisa-intervenção - trouxe à cena o caráter construtivo do conhecimento e produziu “zonas de sentido”, que engendraram formas novas para a pesquisa e para a prática em saúde. Estas transformações exigiram também novos percursos epistemológicos, o que nos aproximou da psicologia histórico-cultural de Vigotski, da pedagogia de Freire e da filosofia da linguagem de Bakhtin

Abstract This article analyzes the interface between epidemiology and historical-cultural psychology as it presented itself in a research project in an urban slum. From the outset, the study sought to assess the clinical burden of disease due to diabetes mellitus, iteratively integrating findings into clinical practice, a formal separation between diagnosis and intervention. However, over the course of the study, the project shifted away from this traditional medical model as all stakeholders became engaged in the dialogic process. This process - known as research-intervention - brought to light the constructive nature of knowledge, and produced “zones of senses”. These senses, and the lessons learned during their analysis, engender the development of new model for research and medical practice. In the process of these analyses we highlight several intersecting epistemological paths as we explore the historical-cultural psychology of Vygotsky, the pedagogy of Freire, and the philosophy of the language of Bakhtin.

Abstract The study was carried out in a Brazilian population and the aim was to describe the prevalence and the clinic-radiographical features of jaw lesions. In addition, a comparison between the main diagnosis hypothesis and final diagnosis was accessed. A prospective study which evaluated all patients with jaw lesions diagnosed in an Oral Diagnosis Center, between August 2013 and October 2014. A total of 450 patients were observed for the first time, and 130 had some type of jaw lesion. The mean age of the patients was 35.2 years ± 17.86. Among these, 71 were women (54.62%) and 87 were Caucasian (66.92%). The mandible was affected more frequently (71.43%) than the maxilla (28.57%). Swelling and pain were the most frequent clinical signs and symptoms and were observed in 60 (42.85%) and 38 (27.14%) cases, respectively. The panoramic x-ray was the main radiographic exam utilized (88.57%). Radiolucent lesions accounted for 89 cases (63.57%) and the unilocular form was present in 114 cases (81.43%). A total of 93 cases had histopathological analyses and the periapical cyst was the most frequent lesion. In the other 47 lesions, the diagnosis was conducted by clinical and radiographic management. Bone lesions were frequent, being noted on first visit in approximately 30% of patients; in 1/3 of the cases, the diagnoses were completed with a combination of clinical and radiographic exams.

Este artigo situa a tradução no espaço teórico de uma linguística com potencial de aplicação e se propõe a desenvolver uma reflexão sobre as bases epistemológicas e paradigmáticas em que se apoiam as pesquisas sobre competência tradutória. Para tanto, o artigo discute inicialmente as bases epistemológicas e paradigmáticas dos estudos sobre a tradução como atividade cognitiva (O'Brien 2013, Alves 2015). Em seguida, analisa os modelos de competência tradutória propostos por PACTE (1998, 2003), Gonçalves (2003/2005) e Alves e Gonçalves (2007) para refletir criticamente sobre a relação desses modelos com campos disciplinares correlatos, quais sejam, as ciências cognitivas e os estudos sobre conhecimento experto. A título de conclusão, o artigo defende uma visão da cognição humana enquanto ação situada em estreita relação com os processos dinâmicos e complexos que caracterizam a competência tradutória. Nesse sentido, o artigo busca caracterizar a competência tradutória no âmbito de um modelo de linguagem amplo e capaz de ser aplicado a problemas concretos.

This article considers translation from the perspective of appliable linguistics and aims at discussing the epistemological and paradigmatic bases that support research on translation competence. To achieve this end, it first discusses the epistemological and paradigmatic bases of studies on translation as a cognitive activity (O'Brien 2013, Alves 2015). Next, it analyses the models of translation competence proposed by PACTE (1998, 2003), Gonçalves (2003/2005) and Alves and Gonçalves (2007) to reflect critically on the relationship between these models and some closely related disciplines, namely, cognitive science and expertise studies. As a way of conclusion, the article argues for a view of human cognition as situated, embodied action to account for the dynamic and complex processes which characterize translation competence. By doing that, the article hopes to place translation competence within a broader model of language that has the potential to be applied to concrete problems.
