INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY IN THE PERFORMANCE OF PHYSICAL EDUCATION PROFESSIONALS: CHARACTERIZING ELEMENTS FOR COPYRIGHT PROTECTION
No full textIn essence, man stands out for the use of your intellect to overcome his challenges and remain in constant evolution. Throughout its history, mankind has developed laws, rules and criteria to protect inventions and innovations. Along the way, a copyright law was created that supports and protects works and products from human intellect. Through it, it is possible to stimulate and leverage diverse sectors and professionals. Based on this, this study aims to characterize the prescriptions of physical activities, therapy, prophylaxis and their relationship with copyright. Its methodology is Grounded Theory, or theory based on data analysis and analysis of the legislation of the professional exercise of Physical Education (CONFEF). As preliminary results, it was identified that there are elements that allow the authorial protection of the training sections, in the prescription of prophylactic and therapeutic activities because they present characteristics of intellectual property and the Physical Education professional, in their functions and attributions, demand innovations and inventions customization of training sections
OZONIZED AND NATURAL COMPOUNDS FOR IN VITRO ACINETOBACTER BAUMANNII TREATMENT
No full textAcinetobacter baumannii stands out as an opportunistic pathogen responsible for Healthcare-Related Infections. This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of natural oils in natura and ozonated on A. baumannii mortality. The randomized experiment used the A. baumannii strain and natural oils (palm, canola, and coconut) ozonized and in natura (control group). Minimum inhibitory and bactericidal concentrations and chromatography were employed in the study. Through the ozonized and fresh oils antimicrobial action, the natural oils' effectiveness and the bacteria mortality were evaluated. The data was submitted to the Mann-Whitney and Kruskal-Wallis tests. When comparing the natural oils, ozonized canola oil stood out as the most efficient in destroying the bacteria. The other ozonized oils showed a 90% reduction in the microbial load in the first ten minutes of treatment. For use in natura, palm oil stood out with 85.9% microbial load reduction. According to the results obtained, the antibacterial activity of natural oils is remarkable, showing that they were expressively effective in inhibiting the A. baumannii growth, presenting themselves as a new adjuvant therapy antibacterial drug. The study concluded that the ozonized oils are more efficient in both MIC and MBC when compared between the ozonized and the untreated groups. The bacteria are sensitive to the ozonized oils
Predictors of mortality in the intensive care unit for adult patients admitted on mechanical ventilation: admission profile
No full textEvaluating risk factors for mortality in local populations such as adult patients admitted on mechanical ventilation in intensive care units (ICU) may provide support for the management and improvement of outcomes in these units. The inclusion of the workload of professionals in these models has offered a different view of predictors. The aim of this study was to evaluate whether Nursing workload assessed by the Nursing Activities Score (NAS), predictors of mortality (APACHEII and SAPS3) and some additional admission variables for patients admitted on mechanical ventilation in an ICU are predictors of death. We evaluated 194 patients who remained on mechanical ventilation for 48 hours before or after admission in one ICU, in a university hospital of high complexity. The clinical and socio-demographic profile, the NAS of admission and some admission variables were evaluated. The outcome discharge or death in the ICU was evaluated for all patients, and from simple or multiple logistic regression models, risk or protective factors for death in the ICU were obtained. Individually, only SAPS3 was significant for prediction of death (OR = 1.03; CI95%: 1.01; 1.05), while the APACHEII and the NAS of admission was not able to predict ICU mortality. In the multiple model, the only risk factors for ICU mortality were the presence of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (OR = 8.82; CI95%: 1.82; 42.70), having thyroid diseases (OR = 5.98; CI95%: 1.15; 31.22) and the increase in the level of urea in the blood (OR = 1.01; CI95%: 1,002; 1.02). The admission variables of this population were more effective in predicting ICU mortality than the predictors of mortality evaluated here
THE POLICE POWER OF THE BRAZILIAN ARMY: Prevention and repression operations in border areas in the State of Rondônia
No full textThis work deals with the legal frameworks that manage the exercise of the police power granted to the Armed Forces, addressing the attributions and situations in which they can be employed. The legal provisions are found in the legal system in force, among the precursors the complementary laws of n. 97/1999, n. 117/2004 and n. 136/2010, which brought significant changes in the general rules for the organization, preparation and employment of the Armed Forces. The basis of this work is the study of the use of the Brazilian Army in law and order guarantee operations, as well as ensuring Brazilian territorial sovereignty. The activities called patrolling and policing operations in the border area of the Brazilian territory are exposed throughout the work. Such activities are subsidiary duties conferred by the Armed Forces. At first, a brief exposition will be made of the legal and doctrinal foundations that deal with the power of police, distinguishing it in what is the "administrative police power" and "the power of security police", although coming from state power, both have different purposes
Water quality and growth of juvenile specimens in giant freshwater prawn Macrobrachium rosenbergii (De Man, 1879) cultures applied in recirculation and biofloc systems
No full textBiofloc research commenced in the late 1970s, with the white shrimp Litopenaeus vannamei and the Nile tilapia Oreochromis niloticus the most commonly studied species. The present study evaluated M. rosenbergii cultures in recirculation and biofloc systems by comparing the water quality and productive performance of juveniles in both systems. The study was based on a simple randomized experimental design with a recirculation and biofloc treatment, each conducted in triplicate. The initial length and weight of the organisms was 1.04 cm and 0.31 g (recirculation) and 1 cm and 0.30 g (biofloc), respectively, while the bioassay, which lasted nine weeks, was undertaken in a salinity of 5 ppm with a natural photoperiod (12:12). The present study monitored basic variables corresponding to the water, survival, growth (in weight), and the composition of the plankton.The basic variables of the water (temperature, salinity, and pH) were kept within the recommended range for the culture. Of the plankton observed in the biofloc, nematodes, rotifers, cyanobacteria, ciliates, heliozoa, and dinoflagellates predominated. The organisms grown in the recirculation system reached 5.35 cm in length and 1.28 g in weight, while those grown in the biofloc reached 5.18 cm and 2 g, with significant differences in individual weight observed. Survival in the recirculation and biofloc systems was 73% and 60%, respectively, with significant differences observed. It is concluded that, although the survival rate was higher in the recirculation system, the weight of individual organisms was higher in the biofloc treatment
The Educational Counselor as one of the inclusive action facilitators in the school
No full textThe Educational Counselor is one of the professionals in the school management team. His role is to be the relationship mediator in every situation in school (student-student, student-teachers, teachers-families, and school-families). This research aimed at discussing the Educational Counselor as one of the facilitating agents for the articulation of inclusive actions in a school environment through an interdisciplinary perspective. To achieve this target a qualitative study was chosen. Nine Educational Counselor have been interviewed, and the generated data were evaluated through content analysis. The results have shown that although the research participants have difficulty conceptualizing school inclusion, they understand the idea of school inclusion as necessary to develop the subjects’ potential. They also have shown that there is no effective inclusion of students with disabilities, and they have pointed out that, although the institution can offer the necessary resources for inclusive practice, and even continuing education, there is still a long way to go before school inclusion happens. Regarding health issues, the Educational Counselor’ statements have shown a belief in the importance of training in a school environment, but they often seem to forget that the school is a space for education and not for health. We have been taught that professionals who are willing to work with inclusion need continued training to improve their practices, which, despite being recent, are significant and produce paradigm shifts about what they have believed to be inclusive practice
Violence, trafficking and drug use in public schools in Belém -Pará - Brazil
No full textThe research shows how violence, trafficking and drug use has been recurrent within schools, causing directions that are difficult to contour by Brazilian government officials. The research had a qualitative and quantitative character. The method used was interviews with teachers and the use of questionnaires with a group of one hundred and seventy students and sixteen teachers. Among all the problems, misery; the use of drugs; the arrival of adolescence; the insertion of the researched group in risk areas belonging to Perverse Territorialization; the lack of definition of a full and adequate curriculum for our social problems; the lack of adequate punishment; the influence of family habitus has contributed to the spread of violence, stimulating parallel activities with the predominance of drug trafficking and organized crime where it presents a growing approximation with the local community in need of all types of services and improvements not provided by the State, causing the increase in all crime rates, the increase in drug trafficking as well as the increase in cases of psychological disorders. Among these reasons, violence in the school environment has increased. The actions necessary to reduce school violence are pointed out in this article, knowing that for its consolidation, the support of the school community and the creation of internal codes of conduct essential to living in the school environment are necessary

COVID-19: Reversing the Gains of Active Learning
No full textCOVID-19 and its ensuing pandemic ignited an atomic bomb on educational systems across the world invoking an emergent and abrupt transition to remote learning. The aftershocks were unpredictable but left a crippled educational system where students were forced into their bedrooms, sometimes deported to their homelands in different time-zones and isolated from their friends and peers. Learning quickly transitioned from social face-to-face interactions to an estranged and detached face-to-computer dependence. Although some introverted students welcomed this transition, many were dissatisfied, and their performance reflected this sentiment. In this study, we compare students’ performance in an undergraduate mathematics class in a large research-intensive university in the Western United States of America over a 2-year time period from 2019 to 2020. This started as a traditional lecture-style course for 3 quarters, transitioned to a hybrid lecture style with integrated adaptive team-based quizzes for 2 quarters, and abruptly changed with the COVID-19 pandemic to online lectures with team-based quizzes for 1 quarter. We demonstrate in our retrospective data analysis that the performance gains from the traditional lecture-style transition to active learning were subsequently lost in the movement to remote learning. We discuss the many obstacles that may have accounted for this loss of performance and suggest future directions for improving remote active learning methodologies
