Este artigo tem como objetivo analisar a influência e a repercussão do Programa Mulheres Mil (PMM) no desenvolvimento pessoal e social das mulheres que participaram do programa, em termos do bem-estar subjetivo. Como procedimento metodológico foi utilizado a técnica de entrevista semiestruturada, de acordo com a Escala de Bem-Estar Subjetivo, composta por 24 itens, analisando dois períodos distintos, antes e após a participação no PMM. Para o processamento dos dados utilizou-se o software SPSS.

Neuropsychopedagogical therapy within the perspective of music therapy

This research refers to Music and its direct relationship with the Teaching Learning process. This work brings, from the ideas of some authors, the importance of using music pedagogically in school interventions aiming at brain stimulation, so that there is a development in the social, cognitive, physical and psychological spheres. The general objective of this research is in fact to understand the relevance and influence that music has in the teaching-learning process and its neuroanatomical relationship with the subject in training.

Evaluation de l'activite antifongique des huiles essentielles de ocimum basilicum, cymbopogon citratus, eucalyptus camaldulensis

Le but de cette étude est d’évaluer l’efficacité des huiles essentielles de Cymbopogon citratus, Eucalyptus camaldulensis, Ocimum basilicum et Lippia multiflora contre trois pathogènes fongiques isolés des tubercules de patate douce. Ces huiles essentielles ont totalement inhibé la croissance de Ceratocystis fimbriata à 2000 ppm. Sur Macrophomina phaseolina le Banko plus à 250 ppm et Cymbopogon citratus à 4000 ppm ont totalement inhibé la croissance du champignon. L’inhibition de Pythium ultimum a été induite par Ocimum basilicum à 2000 ppm.

Lipid and protein overload support only partially the pregnancy and lactation of wistar rats feed a low carb diet

This study aimed to determine the effect of a high fat, high protein, low carb diet during pregnancy and lactation of dams and pups of Wistar rats. Female Wistar rats were fed either a control balanced diet (C) or a Low-carb, hyperproteic and hyperlipidic diet (E) during pregnancy and/or lactation period and the number, weight, adipose tissue and blod glucose from both dams (d) and pups (p) were analyzed. Diet E caused smaller litters and lean pups, without effect on dam’s weight gain.

Spatial variability of humic substances in a latosol under coffee cultivation in the cerrado of minas gerais

Coffee growing in Brazil is an important agribusiness specialty, as it is one of the crops that moves the country's economy the most, being responsible for about one third of the world coffee production. Organic matter is an indispensable attribute for high yields and, associated with precision agriculture, it becomes a tool with high accuracy for identifying areas with different organic matter contents. The objective of the study was to analyze the spatial variability of organic matter fractions in a clayey red latosol.

Validating equations to estimate subfactor ciii for corn residue cover

Erosion is one of the main causes of soil degradation. Model validation is a vital step in developing a valid and applicable tool to predict soil erosion. The aim of this study was to evaluate models that predict the cover and management subfactor (CiII) for interrill erosion. A full factorial design was used, with five doses of corn residue (0; 0.05; 0.15; 0.40 and 0.80 kg m-2), four slope gradients (5.2%; 10.6%; 15.3% and 36.4%) and two repetitions, under simulated rainfall. Di and the CiII were assessed in 0.5 x 0.75 m experimental plots, with recently tilled soil.

Application of different therapies in lip injury in a patient with cerebral palsy: A case report

Background: Cerebral Palsy (CP) is related to non-progressive disorders that occur during fetal development or immature brain. Individuals with spastic CP have abnormal muscle tone causes involuntary movement disorder, pathological reflexes, and development of parafunctional habits. Purpose: This case report describe different therapies to treat a lip injury caused by emotional distress in a patient with spastic CP.

Vertical silo pressure analysis with unusual building materials

With the incapacity in the Brazilian storage network, leveraged by the constant increase in national agricultural production, the construction of a silo becomes essential, where some of the problems in its dimensioning are the distribution of pressures of the product stored in the construction material. Thus, the present work aims to determine the pressure exerted by bean cultivars, according to EUROCODE 1.
