The low-temperature water-gas shift reaction (WGSR) is already used in several industrial chemical processes. However, interest in this reaction has increased significantly in the last few years because of the advances in fuel cell technology and the need to develop compact reformers for the production of pure hydrogen streams (free from CO). In the present work, the WGSR was carried out on copper-based supported catalysts, one of them already used in the industry and the other one prepared using the sol-gel method with the same composition as the industrial catalyst.

The teaching methods used by teachers determine the extent to which students perform in their academics. This study examines the relationship between teaching methods and academic performance of secondary school students in Nigeria. The study adopted descriptive research design but with mixed approaches of data collection and analysis. Target population comprised of 180 students in three secondary schools in Nassarawa Local Government, Kano. A total of 60 respondents were selected. The research instrument was a questionnaire.

The study investigated principals’ executive techniques for handling students’ disruptive behaviour in secondary schools in Ebonyi state of Nigeria. It is a descriptive survey research work carried in Ebonyi state, south eastern part of Nigeria. The study was guided by two research questions and two hypotheses, all derived from the purpose of the study. The population of the study consists of 221 principals and 2154 SS3 students. The sample size of 222 respondents comprising 7 principals and 215 students were selected using purposive simple random sampling technique.

O Acidente Vascular Cerebral (AVC) é uma emergência médica onde a efetividade do tratamento depende da agilidade na identificação dos sinais e sintomas. Trata-se da segunda causa de mortalidade e a terceira causa de incapacidade no mundo. O objetivo deste estudo foi avaliar o conhecimento sobre diversos aspectos do AVC em indivíduos hospitalizados pela doença. Tratou-se de um estudo transversal, com abordagem quantitativa e realizado por meio da aplicação de um questionário adaptado a partir de instrumentos de estudos previamente publicados.

O presente estudo tem por objetivo relatar a experiência de uma oficina que teve a propositura do uso de tecnologias digitais na educação em saúde. Métodos: Estudo descritivo, de abordagem qualitativa, do tipo relato de experiência. A referida oficina foi realizada com a participação de professores do curso técnico em enfermagem em João Pessoa, Paraíba,no intuito de desenvolver discussões referentes ao uso de tecnologias digitais no ensino técnico em enfermagem em uma instituição de ensino médio/ técnico no ano de 2018.

The main goal of this study is to analyze the idea of sustainable development, starting from a detailed reading of the principles that guide Environmental Law, especially the precautionary principle. In this way, we seek to delimit the fine line between the promotion of socioeconomic development and the degradation of the environment, within the paradigm of a Risk Society. A more specific analysis is carried out with regard to genetically modified food in order to seek a balanced decision between its benefits and the irreversibility of the damage caused by them.

Tropical spastic paraparesis is a myelopathy caused by HTLV -1 virus,whose pathogenesis is yet not clear, being the most likely hypothesis to be due TAX viral protein activity that increases the production of reactive oxygen species, resulting in transformation, cell immortalization, DNA damage and disease .The aim of this study was to evaluate oxidative DNA damage in patients with tropical spastic paraparesis by HTLV 1 treated at a referral service in Belém, Pará, Brazil. Methods: It was a retrospective study involving adults.

Background: Spiritist “passe” is a type of Layingon of hands (LOH) commonly adopted in Latin America countries and there are no studies investigating this practice in animal models. Objective: Evaluate the effects of Spiritist “passe” (spiritual healing) in the animal model Drosophila melanogaster by using Epithelial Tumor Test.

Phosphorus (P) is a macronutrient that performs functions in several physiological processes, becoming essential for the proper growth and development of plants. P limiting conditions, causes several damages, since it affects the cell homeostasis, promoting reductions in the photosynthetic rate, in respiration, and consequently can cause reductions in the production of cultures. This review shows the advances in the understanding of the physiological mechanisms of plants to increase the efficiency in the absorption of P under limiting conditions.
