In 2019, a pathology called COVID-19 appeared, caused by SARS-COV 2 (new coronavirus) that has a viral origin with high transmission and contagion power. The main means of contamination are through coughing, sneezing, physical contact and released secretions. The main means of reducing dissemination is through the use of masks, social isolation, social distance and hand hygiene with soap and water or 70% alcohol. Thus, it is worth emphasizing the importance of analyzing the main emotional impacts that this disease caused to nursing professionals. Objective: to analyze, in the light of the literature, the main emotional impacts caused by the new coronavirus pandemic on nursing professionals. Methodology: This is a literature review research, with a descriptive character and a quantitative approach. Results: 15 articles were chosen on the proposed topic, in which the importance of special care for health professionals who suffer from psychological impacts was observed, so that they contribute to the care of the population in general. Final considerations: COVID-19 is a pathology that has great impacts on the mental health of health professionals, due to the greater risk of contamination and transmissibility.

Objective: to analyze in scientific publications evidence that describes the perception of pain in women with breast cancer. Methodology: this is a descriptive study carried out through an integrative review, with a qualitative approach and content analysis by Bardin, in the light of the theoretical framework of Cicely Saunders. In the methodological path of the categorization process, to choose the categories we adopted the semantic criterion that advocates the selection based on themes. Results: the sample consisted of 14 articles, classified in levels of evidence according to the Oxford Center for Evidence-based Medicine, where 3 studies (21.43%) were classified as high level of evidence, research with moderate level represented 9 of the articles (64.28%) and with a low level of evidence for clinical practice, 2 articles (14.28%). Conclusion: the present study demonstrated a highlight for the valorization of physical pain, this fact is a portrait of a culture of care supported by the biomedical model and medicalization, based on that, emotional / mental and social / family pain was less contextualized, whereas spiritual pain was not mentioned, leading us to reflect on the concept of total pain, which should not be neglected in women with breast cancer.

Pharmaceutical services consist of pharmacotherapeutic monitoring in the identification and resolution of drug-related problems (DRPs) through interventions. Monitoring hypertensive patients is essential, as hypertension is considered one of the main risk factors that contribute to mortality from cardiovascular diseases. In this report, we discuss cardiovascular risk factors in hypertensive patients and the pharmacological and non-pharmacological interventions performed to resolve the present DRPs. This is a descriptive study, of the case report type of a patient in a pharmaceutical consultation at the University Pharmacy of the Federal University of Bahia, from October 2019 to April 2020 (CEP nº 2.578.262). The questionnaires and interventions were based on the document "Pharmaceutical Care in Primary Care: notebook 2", from the Ministry of Health. Case report: Female patient, 72 years old, diagnosed with hypertension for years, presents comorbidities such as dyslipidemia, in addition to style sedentary lifestyle that, mutually, configure themselves as important cardiovascular risk factors. She practiced self-medication and had several adherence DRPs. Of the pharmaceutical interventions performed, they included: health education regarding the rational use of medications (RUM), adjustments to correct the DRPs, encouragement of healthy eating and the practice of physical exercise. In view of the elaboration of pharmaceutical intervention plans, adopting drug and non-drug therapies, it was possible to reduce blood pressure levels, RUM and improve the patient's quality of life.

The following article search for presenting the concept of Universal Design for Learning (UDL) and  analyzes the researches performed in Brazil about the theme, and how they contribute to School Inclusion process of special education targeting students (SETS). A survey was made at the Brazilian Digital Library of Theses and Dissertations (BDTD) and at Coordination of Superior Level Staff Improvement (CAPES) Thesis and Dissertations Digital Library using as descriptor “Desenho Universal para Aprendizagem” (Universal Design for Learning), without time restriction. Nine researches were found, two of them were theses and seven were dissertations, from five different areas, two were from the graduate program in Science Teaching; two from Education; two of Teaching in Basic Education; two in Special Education and one in Design. The results show that there is a gap regarding studies on universal design applied to education aiming school inclusion of SETS. The researches approached distant themes, and there is no common theoretical framework, or any research that may be used as action reference. Although there are few researches that demonstrates the effectiveness of UDL to assist school inclusion of SETS, it is possible to conclude that there is potential for this.

Objective: This article aimed to measure the quality of life of substance users who were undergoing treatment at a psychosocial care service specialized in alcohol and other drugs. Methodology: this is a cross-sectional, descriptive study with a quantitative approach, carried out with the participation of 100 users who were undergoing treatment at the service. Empirical data were collected between July and August 2017 using the WHOQOL-BREF instrument in the social relations domain. Results: the quality of life had a mean score of 62.67 and a median of 63.5. Socioeconomic factors such as education, occupation, housing conditions, family ties and income were significant elements in determining quality of life. Conclusion: the results pointed to a quality of life considered moderate. The care modalities offered by psychosocial care services for alcohol and other drugs seem to converge with the multifactorial sense of quality of life as it works with a plurality of dimensions of the users' lives.

The objective of this work was to carry out a market research on the consumption of Munguba paçoca (Pachira aquatica Aubl.), In addition to elaborating formulations varying the addition of animal fat and evaluating sensorially. To prepare the paçoca, the Munguba seeds were dried in a conventional oven and crushed in a multiprocessor. In this study, the percentage of butter varied, with treatment 1 (T1) without addition, treatment 2 (T2) with 2.83% and treatment 3 (T3) with addition of 5.65%. Market research was carried out on Peanut and Munguba Paçoca (Pachira aquatica Aubl.). The sensory analysis was performed in a virtual way, and the acceptance test for the color and appearance attributes was used, with untrained judges, the preference ordering test and a search for the ideal product, in the three treatments and in the commercial sample of peanut. In the market research it was possible to notice that the Munguba paçoca would have adherence to the market. The acceptance test in relation to color and appearance had mean scores between 5 and 7, while the commercial was between 8 and 9. Regarding the comparison of the ideal paçoca and the evaluations given to the Paçocas de Munguba respectively in the item color, it had good acceptability in relation to texture apparent and granulometry apparent, further studies should be carried out. It is concluded that it is possible to prepare paçoca do Munguba (Pachira aquatica Aubl.), However it is necessary to improve the texture and conduct sensory tests of taste, texture and odor, as only visual analyzes were performed.

Increased blood pressure is one of the main risk factors for cardiovascular disease. The World Health Organization (WHO) recommends that sodium intake should be moderate and potassium intake can be increased, as its intake is associated with a lower incidence of cardiovascular disease. Banana is a fruit rich in potassium and has large post-harvest losses due to its perishability. The production of frozen pulps is an alternative to reduce these losses. To add nutritional and functional benefits to the fruit pulp, it is possible to add soluble fiber, since its high intake is known to have a protective effect against cardiovascular disease and its intake by individuals does not meet the recommended minimum. There is evidence that psyllium dietary fiber contributes to lowering blood pressure, lowering cholesterol, lowering blood glucose and its incorporation into foods may offer health benefits such as preventing high blood pressure. Knowing that sodium and potassium intake is related to blood pressure, this study aimed to investigate the content of the minerals sodium and potassium in frozen banana pulp added with psyllium and to verify the concentrations of bioaccessibility in in vitro digestion. Our results showed that the addition of psyllium contributed to an increase in the content of the minerals potassium and sodium and that after the simulated digestions we verified that the final concentrations of the mineral potassium are in agreement with other results present in the literature, we also saw that despite increasing the sodium content, the final concentration of the dialysate (which would be absorbed by the human body) was 0.17%, being very low and ideal for preventing high blood pressure.

The aim of this study is to investigate the morphology of maxillary premolar root canal systems using cone beam computed tomography. The literature review was carried out through a literature review of studies published in recent years in the databases of PubMed/Medline, Scopus, LILACS and SciELO. The results show that cone beam computed tomography allows the visualization of three-dimensional structures, reducing image overlapping and allowing a better identification of more complex and variable channel structures, such as premolars. The maxillary first premolars had one to two roots, with a prevalence of type IV and II root canal systems. The maxillary second premolars also varied in number of roots between single-rooted and double-rooted, and had a higher prevalence of type I, II and IV canals. It is possible to conclude that premolars are teeth with high root variability and cone beam computed tomography are a good instrument to help the study of these morphological variations, reducing the possibility of errors in endodontic treatments.

Traumatic bone cyst (TOC) refers to a rare lesion of the jaw, called by many authors as pseudocyst, in most cases the lesions are discovered by chance, in routine radiographs. It presents intraosseous, with a tenuous capsule or connective tissue without epithelium and most of the lesions are empty cavities, containing little serous or serosanguineous fluid, with an absent epithelial capsule. The aim of the study was to describe the clinical features of a rare case of traumatic bone cyst in an eight-year-old child, from diagnosis to case resolution. The first panoramic radiograph, taken right after the trauma, on 01/07/2020 shows the radiographic finding of a lesion, which was not diagnosed at the time. Due to the trauma, there was a fracture in the bone cortical, which was associated with this existing lesion. After one year, there was a recurrent inflammatory reaction, exposing the bone sequestration, new images, a detailed anamnesis, and especially a search for the initial image, determined that the lesion existed prior to the trauma that had occurred. According to the mother's report, there were other, previous falls, making trauma the etiology of the injury. Through the surgical approach, a definitive diagnosis was possible, and the anatomopathological examination confirmed the diagnosis hypothesis being positive for TOC. The lower left canine erupting in an unfavorable position was referred to the orthodontics service. The dentist must have sufficient knowledge to differentiate and diagnose the most diverse cystic lesions, thus being able to proceed quickly and correctly with the resolution of cases, thus offering an accurate diagnosis and bone repair.

Pandora's Syndrome is a disorder in the lower urinary tract of felines, its pathogenesis is not fully understood, but it is known that there are predisposing factors to its appearance, such as: genetic, low water intake, environmental stress, obesity, life modern cat household and lack of physical activity. The objective of this work was to report the main information described about this condition, in addition to its impact on the organism in these animals. Thus, articles were searched in document, article and book indexing databases, such as Scielo, Google Scholar, Pub Med and Scopus in the last 11 years, seeking more relevant and recent information about the disease. The syndrome presents itself in a complex form that presents nonspecific clinical signs, making its diagnosis very difficult, requiring the use of several laboratory tests. Treatment involves multimodal therapy with environmental management, promotion of environmental enrichment, reduction of stressors that may affect the animal. Furthermore, this disease has a negative impact on animal abandonment, as animals with the Syndrome tend to suffer abandonment. Therefore, studies on this change are important for updating professionals, allowing them to promote the well-being and better life expectancy of their patients, in addition to making tutors aware of the disease.

Jelly is considered a prominent product on an industrial scale, due to its good acceptance by consumers. The aim of this study was to develop conventional and mixed dietary jelly from umbu and mandacaru. The jellies were made using the standard and dietary formulation, one with sucrose and the other with xylitol, pulp of umbu and mandacaru, citric pectin and citric acid. After 30 days of storage in the environment, the physicochemical parameters were evaluated. The results obtained were subjected to analysis of variance by the Agroestat software. The average values of the physicochemical characteristics of the fruits of umbu and mandacaru obtained satisfactory values for jelly production. Conventional jelly falls within the aspects of the legislation in force. The diet jelly did not meet the identity and quality standards and showed the presence of syneresis.

Bees are the main and most effective agents of plant pollination, contributing to the stability of environments and agriculture and, in this way, favoring food security. Among indigenous bees, the Partamona cupira is one that has little information in the literature about its behavior and handling techniques. This work aimed to analyze the nesting choice of P. cupira, in its natural habitat, in the Caatinga biome, in relation to its magnetic orientation. This assessment was carried out at Sítio Farias, in the rural area of ​​the municipality of Pararí-PB. Field visits were carried out to identify and locate P. cupira nests in hosts. The results show that, in Cariri, Paraíba, P. cupira has a preference for nesting in abandoned termite mounds on the following hosts: catingueira (Poincianella bracteosa), 36.84%; dead fence (of any plant species), 21.05%; pear (Aspidosperma pyrifolium), 15.79%; mofumbu (Combretum leptostachyum), 10.52; umburana (Commiphora leptophloeos), 5.26%; umbu tree (Spondias tuberosa), 5.26%; and saw rosemary (Lipia gracilis), 5.26%. It is concluded that the P. cupira bee has a preference for nesting its nest - in plant hosts - in the Southwest (SW) direction.

This paper aims to present a discussion about the works of female authorship in the collection of PNLD Literary 2018 and propose an analysis of the work Frankenstein or the modern Prometheus (1818) by writer Mary Shelley, from the Portuguese edition by Zahar, published in 2017. In order to carry out this research it is intended, through the theoretical contribution of the Aesthetics of Reception, to observe the potential of the work for the construction of the aesthetic reader in the classroom and if the book has an emancipatory discourse, since, in 2018, it was incorporated into the catalog of PNLD - Literary, indicated for the high school grades. The choice of this text (SHELLEY, 2017) is justified because it is written by women, because it is considered a universal classic, because it is present in the PNLD Literary of 2018 and because its theme is current and relevant to students.

Dental avulsion consists of a dentoalveolar trauma, in which the tooth is displaced out of the alveolo, and immediate treatment is the reimplantation of the avulsional dental element. Factors such as: extra alveolar time, storage medium, and the containment performed after dental reimplantation, are determinant in the favorable prognosis of the case. The aim of this article was to report the clinical case of avulsion of the upper central incisor. A 7-year-old male patient suffered a fall from his own height, causing avulsion of the dental element 11; four hours after the accident, with the element having been stored in dry medium, the reimplantation was performed and a rigid containment was made (Erich bar). In later care, the element in question was evaluated and the containment replaced by a semi-rigid one; reevaluated and referring for endodontic treatment. The case reported is an atypical case, for the clinical picture in question the factors mentioned were unfavorable for a good prognosis, however, the element that suffered avulsion and was reimplanted, is in function until the present moment, with 9 months of follow-up.

Results: A total of 1876 articles were found in the literature search, in which, after applying the inclusion and exclusion criteria and the peer review, there were 18 articles to be read in full. Of the 18 articles, 1380 patients who met the inclusion criteria were included. A total of 56.5% were female and comprised the age range from 1 week of life to 9 years of age. Final considerations: Propranolol is considered an alternative therapy for the treatment of infantile hemangioma because of its high efficacy and less adverse effects.

Provoking a taste for reading in students has been a very difficult job. Why is it so difficult to make reading a meaningful process for elementary school students? How are methodologies worked in the classroom? Through these concerns we present in this article a work proposal for developing in a public school in Várzea Grande-MT, in Elementary School with 6th grade students, suggestions for some games and play and the importance of these significant pedagogical resources for learning to read and writing. The school makes little use of playful games in the practice of teaching and learning, and the absence of effective methods is now pointed out as the most important cause of the failure to teach reading. In this sense, the article aims to present alternatives in the teaching-learning process and build strategies that enhance the habit of reading through play and games to awaken the pleasure of reading in students and contribute to the formation of autonomous and competent readers. We carried out a descriptive and qualitative research and bibliographic nature with the studies of the authors exposed here, such as Santos (2001), Carvalho (2003), Fortuna (2018), Peixoto & Venturini (2021), among others. From this perspective, the aim of this work is to contribute to the teaching-learning of reading through play in a constructivist perspective, teaching in a relaxed and effective way based on theory and practice. The proposal contributed to a positive result in reading and writing process.

The inoculation of strawberry cultivars with arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) is a profitable and viable biotechnological tool, with potential to improve the horticultural performance of plants. However, this biotechnology is lacking and unknown to producers. The aim of the research was to investigate whether strawberry cultivars in the absence and presence of inoculation with AMF differ in their horticultural performance. The treatments, delineated in a bifactorial scheme, were four strawberry cultivars in the absence and presence of two AMF-based inoculants. The experiment was designed in randomized blocks, with three replications. The root system of ‘Albion’ cultivar showed the highest mycorrhizal colonization. Claroideoglomus etunicatum showed greater capacity to infect plant roots. ‘Portola’ was the most productive cultivar and ‘Albion’ and ‘Aromas’ produced strawberries with the highest levels of total anthocyanins. It is concluded that the use of mycorrhizal biotechnology enhances the levels of total flavonoids in fruits of the ‘Albion’ cultivar inoculated with the fungal species C. etunicatum. The root system of ‘Albion’ cultivar has greater mycorrhizal colonization. The fungal species C. etunicatum is more effective in colonizing the roots of the plant host. It is suggested to use the ‘Portola’ cultivar to obtain higher fruit yields and the ‘Albion’ and ‘Aromas’ cultivars for producers who aim to obtain strawberries with higher levels of total anthocyanins. ‘Aromas’ is recommended for those seeking a dual purpose (production and quality).

The study aimed to describe the aspects of trophic ecology and feeding strategy of the Hassar affinis species in two lakes in the Baixada Maranhense region a wetland of international ecological interest (Site Ramsar). Individuals were collected monthly for one year. 372 stomachs were analyzed, of which 246 were from Lake Cajari and 126 from Lake Viana. The diet composition of the species was analyzed using the Frequency of Occurrence, Volumetric and Food Importance Index method. The result indicated that 49.1% of stomachs had content Lake Cajari. For Lake Viana, the number of stomachs analyzed indicated that 65.8% were full. The most consumed food itens by the species in Cajari were Mollusk of the species Benthonella tenella, Insect larvae of the order Coleoptera, Odonata, Diptera and Ephemeroptera. In Lake Viana, the same items were present. During the dry and rainy season in Lake Cajari there were differences in diet (item/prey) where the species consumed in greater percentage the item Mollusc in the dry period and in the rainy season Insect larvae, however for Viana lake the species did not show significant variation in feeding concerning seasonality. Regarding ontogenetic, H. affinis showed differences in feeding, both in sex and in the maturation stage. Thus, according to the analysis of stomach contents, it was confirmed that the species H. affinis  has an omnivorous benthic feeding habit with a generalist strategy, evidencing the importance of the ecosystem for the food chain in both lakes.

In this research, the potential of sugarcane bagasse as a natural adsorbent of synthetic textile dye was evaluated. In the first stage of the research, the preparation and characterization of the adsorbent was carried out by determining the zero charge point - pHPCZ and Fourier transformation infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), it was found that adsorbent has a pHPCZ equal to 3.37 for dry material at 60 °C. In the second stage of the research, acidic and alkaline activations of adsorbent material were carried out and an experimental planning of the Box-Behnken type 25 for each adsorbent material, having the mass, concentration, pH, rotation and time as independent variables, evaluating adsorbed quantity responses (qt) and reduction in dye concentration (%red). The kinetic tests were performed at pH 3.0 and concentration of 150 mg.L-1, with samples collected every five minutes for up to 60 minutes, for fresh, acid and alkaline adsorbents. The kinetic data were adjusted to models of pseudo-first order, pseudo-second order and Elovich equation, with Elovich model being best adjusted to the tests. The isotherms were constructed varying concentration from 25 to 200 mg. L-1, with pH 3.0 and the Sips isotherm obtained a higher value of R2 and Test F. The sugarcane bagasse was attractive in the removal of the direct dye Tupy® burgundy 16, especially when the adsorbent treatment with HCl is carried out.
