    Resumo: A caprinocultura se constitui em uma atividade de grande importância social e econômica para o Nordeste brasileiro. No entanto, problemas sanitários representam limitações para a produção de caprinos como as endoparasitoses, promovendo altas taxas de mortalidade. Objetivando buscar subsídio para entender a fauna e dinâmica populacional das verminoses que acometem caprinos leiteiros no município de Afonso Bezerra, maior produtor do estado do Rio Grande do Norte, foi realizado um levantamento epidemiológico de helmintos gastrintestinais com utilização de traçadores. Utilizaram-se caprinos traçadores submetidos previamente a condições ambientais naturais da região, sendo seu conteúdo gástrico recuperado e enviado para análise, identificação e contagem dos exemplares encontrados. Os resultados demonstraram que a dinâmica populacional das helmintoses sofre influência direta de fatores climáticos, sendo os helmintos encontrados em ordem de prevalência Haemonchus contortus (57,23%), Trichostrongylus colubriformis (40,54%), Oesophagostomum columbianum (1,42%), Trichuris globulosa (0,46%), Trichostrongylus axei (0,19%), Moniezia expansa (0,15%) e Strongyloides papillosus (0,1%). Abstract: The goat constitutes an activity of great social and economic importance to the Brazilian Northeast. However, health problems represent limitations on the production of goats as endoparasitoses, promoting high mortality rates. Aiming to seek grant for understanding population dynamics and fauna of worms that affect dairy goats in the municipality of Afonso Bezerra, the largest producer in the state of Rio Grande do Norte, an epidemiological survey was conducted of gastrointestinal helminths using tracers. We used tracer goats previously submitted to natural environmental conditions of the region, and its stomach contents recovered and sent for analysis, identification and counting of specimens found. The results showed that the population dynamics of helminth suffers direct influence of climatic factors, and the helminths found in order of prevalence Haemonchus contortus (57.23%), Trichostrongylus colubriformis (40.54%), Oesophagostomum columbianum (1.42%), Trichuris globulosa (0.46%), Trichostrongylus axei (0.19%), Moniezia expansa (0.15%) and Strongyloides papillosus (0.1%).Título em inglês: Gastrointestinal helminth in dairy goats from municipality of Afonso Bezerra, Rio Grande do Norte, Brazil

Realizing the needs and needs that existed in Brazil, the first followers of Spiritism will put into practice the teachings of the Spiritist Doctrine, in places where the absence of the State was felt. In this way Spiritism in Brazil develops as the main characteristic the practice of charity, which at the beginning is very focused on medical care.

Soon afterwards, he becomes a very important figure in Brazilian Spiritism. He was one of the first presidents of the FEB (Brazilian Spiritist Federation) in the years of 1896. He will also begin the practice of organizing the weeks studies in the Spiritist Centers, the studies were scientific, philosophical and mainly religious of the doctrine, studies that exist until today in the Spiritist Centers of Brazil.

    M. Raulin, français, philosophe : les (en)jeux d'un miroir inventé par Lima Bezerra

    No full text
    Lima Bezerra, auteur d’Os Estrangeiros no Lima/ Les Etrangers à Lima (1785 et 1791), imagine plusieurs dialogues entre M. Lami, un médecin portugais, et quatre étrangers : M. Raulin, un philosophe français, Mr. Clarck, un commerçant anglais, Sig. Julio, un voyageur italien, et D. Hugo, un historien espagnol. Chaque interlocuteur représente la voix des lieux communs projetés par chaque nation – la France, l’Angleterre, l’Italie et l’Espagne – sur le Portugal. Les interventions de M. Raulin nous semblent particulièrement intéressantes : parce qu’elles renvoient le lecteur vers une dimension philosophique des Lumières et parce qu’elles sont l’exemple du prestige de la culture française en Europe au XVIIIe siècle. En contrepoint, les prises de parole de Lami, un médecin portugais, malgré la complicité qui le lie à M.Raulin, dénoncent l’importance d’un regard local sur la crédibilité dominante de l’étranger. La connaissance est ainsi l’aboutissement d’une curieuse rhétorique : le trompe l’œil

    Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts

    No full text
    We conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more sophisticated methods
