A long-term goal within the field of organic electronics has been to developflexible and functional devices, which can be processed and patterned withlow-cost and energy-efficient solution-based methods. This thesis presents anumber of functional paths towards the attainment of this goal via thedevelopment and demonstration of novel fabrication and patterningmethods involving the important organic-semiconductor family termedfullerenes.Fullerenes are soccer-shaped small molecules, with two often-employedexamples being the symmetric C60 molecule and its more soluble derivative[6,6]-phenyl-C61-butyric acid methyl ester (PCBM). We show that PCBM canbe photochemically transformed into a dimeric state in a bi-excited reactionprocess, and that the exposed material features a significantly reducedsolubility in common solvents as well as an effectively retained electronmobility. This attractive combination of material properties allows for adirect and resist-free lithographic patterning of electronic PCBM films downto a smallest feature size of 1 µm, using a simple and scalable two-stepprocess constituting light exposure and solution development. In a furtherdevelopment, it was shown that the two-step method was useful also in thearea-selective transformation of fullerene/conjugated-polymer blend films,as demonstrated through the realization of a functional complementary logiccircuit comprising a 5-stage ring oscillator.In another project, we have synthesized highly flexible, single-crystal C60nanorods with a solution-based self-assembly process termed liquid-liquidinterfacial precipitation. The 1-dimensional nanorods can be deposited fromtheir synthesis solution and employed as the active material in field-effecttransistor devices. Here, it was revealed that the as-fabricated nanorods canfeature an impressive electron mobility of 1.0 cm2 V-1 s-1, which is on par withthe performance of a work horse in the transistor field, viz. vacuumdeposited amorphous Si. We further demonstrated that the processability ofthe nanorods can be improved by a tuned light-exposure treatment, duringwhich the nanorod shell is polymerized while the high-mobility interior bulkis left intact. This has the desired consequence that stabile nanoroddispersions can be prepared in a wide range of solvents, and we anticipatethat functional electronic devices based on solution-processable nanorodscan be realized in a near future.

According to Domowitz (1992), the Agni women of Cote d'Ivoire assign proverbs and aphorisms as names to wax-dyed cloth. Women then use the imagery and associated proverbs behind cloth names to send non-verbal messages they would otherwise be unable to express publicly. The purpose of this study is twofold: first, to investigate wax-dyed cloth names including their underlying meanings and uses given by women in Cote d'Ivoire and Togo; and second, to investigate how these names are acquired in French by women who have no formal education. Qualitative results revealed that women in these two countries are very motivated to learn cloth names. New undocumented names and their underlying meanings were also found. Some of these meanings were found to be educational; others are used to maintain status or to clarify power relationships. At the same time, quantitative results indicated that knowledge and use of cloth names in both communities studied is in decline.

O vapor provoca a dilata??o do revestimento, que ap?s a redu??o na temperatura tende a voltar ?s dimens?es iniciais, provocando a forma??o de trincas no cimento e perda de isolamento hidr?ulico. Neste contexto, o L?tex do tipo SBR ? utilizado para melhorar a flexibilidade da matriz do cimento reduzindo as falhas por fadiga. Para evitar estas falhas, os par?metros de resist?ncia mec?nica devem ser rigorosamente ajustados ?s condi??es do po?o. Para o estado fresco, as pastas de cimento devem permanecer fluidas e homog?neas, durante o bombeio, para que seu deslocamento n?o comprometa a janela operacional do po?o. Este trabalho tem como objetivo estudar o comportamento mec?nico de sistemas de pasta de cimento Portland, aditivadas com L?tex SBR, para cimenta??o de po?os de petr?leo sujeitos ? inje??o de vapor. Atrav?s do planejamento fatorial composto central foi estudado o comportamento da resist?ncia ? compress?o API variando a densidade da pasta entre 1,75g/cm? (14,6 lb/Gal) e 1,89 g/cm? (15,8lb/Gal), o tempo de cura entre 4 dias e 28 dias e concentra??o de L?tex SBR entre 0 L/m? e 534,722 L/m? (0 gpc e 4 gpc). Os resultados apontam que o com o aumento da concentra??o do l?tex SBR, dentro os intervalos determinados, ocorreu uma diminui??o significativa da resist?ncia ? compress?o pelo aumento da capacidade de deforma??o el?stica da pasta. A partir dos resultados obtidos ? poss?vel determinar melhores condi??es de formula??o de pastas aplic?veis em opera??es de cimenta??o de po?o de petr?leo sujeito ? inje??o de vapor. / Steam injection is an oil recovery method accomplished by introducing steam directly into the oil well to the reservoir. The steam causes dilation of the casing, which, after reduction in temperature, tends to return to the initial dimensions: causing the formation of cracks in the cement and loss of hydraulic isolation.. In this context, the type of the SBR latex is used to improve the flexibility of the cement matrix by reducing the amount of fatigue failure. To prevent these failures, the mechanical resistance parameters should be carefully adjusted to well conditions. This work aims to study the mechanical behavior of cement slurry systems additivated with SBR latex for cementing oil wells subject to steam injection. Through the central composite factorial design was studied the behavior of the compressive strength by varying the density of the paste between 1.75 g /cm? (14.6 lb/ Gal) and 1.89 g/cm? (15,8lb / Gal), curing time between 4 days and 28 days and concentration of SBR Latex between 0 L / m? and 534.722 L / m? (0 gpc and 4 gpc). The results showed that increasing the concentration of SBR latex, within the given ranges, there was a decreased compression resistance and elastic modulus by increasing the elastic deformability of the slurry. From the results it can determine best slurries formulation conditions in oil well cementing operations subject to steam injection.

A maioria das infec??es causadas por ECN est?o relacionadas ao uso de dispositivos m?dicos invasivos que ao lesionar a integridade da pele servem de base para a forma??o de biofilmes, um importante fator de virul?ncia. Grande parte dos isolados de coagulase negativo s?o provenientes de hemoculturas e pontas de cateter e nos ?ltimos anos vem se tornando um grave problema no que diz respeito ? antibioticoterapia, em virtude do n?mero elevado de cepas multirresistentes descritas. O objetivo deste trabalho foi pesquisar resist?ncia ? linezolida em estafilococos coagulase negativos resistentes ? meticilina isolados de ponta de cateter e hemocultura de hospitais p?blicos e privados da cidade do Natal. Os isolados bacterianos foram coletados a partir de demanda espont?nea em Hospitais P?blicos e Privados. O g?nero Staphylococcus foi confirmado atrav?s dos testes de rotina como colora??o de Gram, prova da catalase da coagulase livre. A identifica??o a n?vel de esp?cie foi realizada atrav?s de testes bioqu?micos convencionais. Algumas amostras tiveram sua identifica??o confirmada pelos sistemas VITEK 2 e MALDI-TOF. O perfil de resist?ncia aos antimicrobianos foi avaliado atrav?s da t?cnica de disco-difus?o (CLSI 2013). A Concentra??o Inibit?ria M?nima para vancomicina e linezolida foi determinada atrav?s do uso de E-test e a presen?a dos genes mecA e cfr foi confirmada pela t?cnica da Rea??o em Cadeia da Polimerase. Algumas amostras tiveram a regi?o V da subunidade 23S do gene do rRNA sequenciadas e analisadas. Posteriormente, as mesmas foram submetidas a t?cnica do PFGE para determina??o do seu pulsotipo. Dos 43 estafilococos coagulase negativos resistentes ? oxacilina inclu?dos neste estudo, 33 (77%) foram identificados como S. epidermidis, 6 (14%) como S. haemolyticus, 3 (7%) como S. homins e 1 (2%) como S. capitis. Os isolados de hemocultura representaram 86% (37) e os de ponta de cateter 14% (6). As amostras apresentaram um perfil de multirresist?ncia, uma vez que 42 dos 43 isolados apresentaram resist?ncia ? 4 ou mais classes de drogas. Todas apresentaram o gene mecA. Nenhuma amostra apresentou resist?ncia ? vancomicina. Tr?s cepas de S. hominis e duas de S. epidermidis, apresentaram resist?ncia ? linezolida com CIM variando entre 6 e 64 ?L/mL. Quando investigadas, apresentaram duas muta??es pontuais (C2190T e G2603T) na regi?o V do gene para rRNA 23S. Nenhuma destas apresentou o gene cfr. O PFGE dos S. hominis revelou a presen?a de um ?nico pulsotipo em 3 hospitais, enquanto n?o foi encontrado semelhan?a gen?tica entre os S. epidermidis. Estes achados destacam a import?ncia da vigil?ncia continuada em rela??o a resist?ncia a linezolida no g?nero Staphylococcus. / Coagulase Negative Staphylococci (CoNS) belong to the normal microbiota of the skin and mucous membranes of humans and animals. The most of the infections caused by CoNS are a serious problem, since an elevated number of multi-drug resistant strains. The objective of this study was to investigate resistance to linezolid in methicillin-resistant coagulase negative staphylococci isolates from hospitals in the city of Natal. Bacterial samples were collected from spontaneous demand from Public and Private Hospitals of the city of Natal-RN. The identification staphylococci of the species were conducted by conventional biochemical. Some Samples had the identification to the species level confirmed by automated methodologies VITEK 2? and VITEK MS?. The resistance profile was evaluated with use of the disk diffusion technique (CLSI, 2013). The MIC to vancomycin and linezolid were determined by using E-test method. The antimicrobial resistance profile was evaluated by disk diffusion technique (CLSI 2013). The Minimum Inhibitory Concentration linezolid and vancomycin were determined by using E-test and the presence of the mecA gene and cfr was confirmed by the technique of Polymerase Chain Reaction. Some samples had the V region of the subunit 23S rRNA gene sequenced and subjected to PFGE technique for determining its pulsotype. Of the 43 coagulase negative staphylococci resistant to methicillin included in this study, 33 (77%) were identified as S. epidermidis, 6 (14%) as S. haemolyticus, 3 (7%) as S. homins and 1 (2%) as S. capitis. The catheter tip isolates accounted for 14% (6) and the blood culture 86% (37). Samples showed an alarming resistance profile, since 98% of the isolates were resistant to four or more class drugs. All were positive for mecA gene. No samples were resistant to vancomycin. Three S. hominis and two S. epidermidis exhibited linezolid resistance with MIC ranging from 6 to 64 ?L/mL. None of the samples had the cfr gene. When investigated, they showed two point mutations each (C2190T and G2603T) in the V region of the 23s rRNA gene. None of them was the cfr gene. The S.hominis of PFGE showed the presence of a single pulsotype in three hospitals, suggesting a clonal spread, while it was not found genetic similarity among S. epidermidis. These findings highlight the importance of continued vigilance of linezolid resistance in the genus Staphylococcus.

La lithographie électronique multifaisceaux (ou multi e-beam) en cours de développement est pressentie comme une alternative à la photolithographie 193 nm à immersion (193i nm) pour la production des circuits intégrés des noeuds technologiques avancés (14 nm et au-delà). Elle se présente également comme un concurrent potentiel à la photolithographie sous rayonnement EUV (13,5 nm) qui, elle aussi, est en cours de développement. Cependant, le développement de cette technologie doit faire face à plusieurs obstacles. Parmi eux, on a la contamination des optiques électroniques induite par le redépôt des molécules dégazées de la résine au cours de l‟exposition. Ces dépôts conduisent à la croissance d‟une couche carbonée en surface et à l‟intérieur des trous de ces optiques. Cette couche de contamination a tendance à diminuer la transmission des optiques et, par conséquent, diminuer les performances lithographiques de l‟outil (débit, uniformité des CD, rugosité, etc.). Il est donc indispensable de comprendre les mécanismes qui gouvernent le dégazage et la croissance de la couche de contamination afin d‟être en mesure de prédire son rôle sur les dérives des procédés et de l‟équipement. Tel a été l‟axe conducteur de ces travaux de thèse. Dans un premier temps, nous avons réalisé l‟état de l‟art des travaux déjà effectués dans le cas de la technique de lithographie EUV. Ensuite, nous avons conçu et fabriqué un banc de tests et développé, en parallèle, les méthodologies permettant de réaliser les études de dégazage des résines et de contamination induite sur des dispositifs simulateurs d‟optiques électroniques, appelés « mimics ». Puis, dans les conditions opératoires similaires à la plateforme Matrix développée par MAPPER Lithography, nous avons évalué le dégazage des résines de différentes formulations et mesuré la contamination induite par chacune de ces formulations sur les mimics à l‟aide du banc de tests développé. Enfin, nous avons proposé un modèle analytique permettant de prédire la croissance du film de contamination à l‟intérieur des trous du mimic en fonction des paramètres d‟exposition. / The development of multiple e-beam lithography equipment is foreseen as an alternative to the 193i nm immersion photolithography for the advanced technological node (less than 14 nm). This next generation lithography is a potential challenger to the EUV (13.5 nm) lithography which is also under development. However, this technology faces important challenges in controlling the contamination of the electron optics due to the adsorption of molecules outgassed from resist under exposure and the subsequent formation of a carbonaceous film on optics surface. This contamination layer can lead to the transmission loss of the optics and, consequently, degrade the tool lithographic performances (throughput, CD uniformity, Line Width Roughness, etc.). It is thus important to understand the resist outgassing and induced contamination mechanisms in order to predict their effect on the process drifts. That was the driver axis of these thesis works. Firstly, we performed the state of the art related to the works already published in the EUV lithography case. Secondly, we designed and built-up an experimental setup and developed, in parallel, the methods allowing to study the mechanisms of resist outgassing and induced contamination on electron optics simulators, called “mimic”. Thirdly, we assessed the outgassing of several resist formulations in the same operating conditions as in the Matrix platform developed by MAPPER Lithography. We also measured the induced contamination layer on the mimics for each resist formulation using the developed experimental setup. And finally, we proposed an analytical model that allows to predict the contamination film growth inside mimic holes during exposure.

Pesquisa do Estado de Minas Gerais (FAPEMIG) / Objetivou-se com este trabalho avaliar o efeito da compacta??o do solo e diferentes doses de nitrog?nio no desenvolvimento, produtividade e qualidade de esp?cies forrageiras e nos atributos f?sicos do solo. Foram montados tr?s experimentos independentes em casa de vegeta??o com um delineamento em blocos casualizados, em um esquema fatorial duplo. Os experimentos foram com as tr?s esp?cies forrageiras - Bachiaria ruzizienses, Brachiaria brizantha cv. MG-5 Vit?ria e Panicum maximum cv. momba?a; os tratamentos: quatro Graus de Compacta??o (GC) ? 65%; 75%; 85% e 95% e quatro dose de adubo nitrogenado ? 0; 200; 250 e 300 Kg de N ha-1), com quatro repeti??es. O experimento foi conduzido em vasos em casa de vegeta??o localizada na UFVJM campus JK, em Diamantina-MG. No local de coleta do solo utilizado no experimento, foram coletadas amostras de aproximadamente 5 kg para a realiza??o do ensaio de Proctor normal, determinando-se a Densidade do solo e a Umidade para cada corpo de prova. Uma vez estipulado o GC, conhecendo a Densidade m?xima do solo e o volume do vaso, foi poss?vel calcular a massa de solo a ser colocada dentro dos vasos referente a cada GC. As amostras foram coletadas 90 dias ap?s semeadura, para realiza??o das avalia??es em laborat?rio. As vari?veis analisadas nas plantas foram: produ??o de massa verde (MV) e massa seca (MS) da parte a?rea, altura, volume da raiz, prote?na bruta (PB), fibra em detergente neutro (FDN), fibra em detergente ?cido (FDA) e lignina. Para a realiza??o do ensaio de Resist?ncia do solo ? penetra??o (RP), as amostras indeformadas foram trabalhadas e saturadas por um per?odo de 48 h, em seguida deu-se in?cio ?s leituras de RP. Realizou-se tamb?m a avalia??o de RP em vasos contendo solo compactado com GC de 95%, antes da semeadura; a modelagem foi feita ajustando um modelo exponencial de RP x umidade e foram comparados estatisticamente por um teste de identidade de modelos. Concluiu-se que a MV, MS da parte a?rea, a altura de plantas e o teor de prote?na bruta aumentaram linearmente com a aplica??o de nitrog?nio em todas as forrageiras estudadas. ? medida que se aumentam as doses de nitrog?nio, os teores de FDN e FDA em todas as forrageiras estudadas diminu?ram. Para o volume da raiz, a Brachiaria brizantha cv. MG-5 Vit?ria respondeu linearmente e positivamente ?s crescentes doses de nitrog?nio no solo compactado. Na avalia??o dos atributos f?sicos do solo, o solo cultivado com Brachiaria ruziziensis foi o que apresentou uma maior RP na umidade na capacidade de campo no grau de compacta??o de 95%. As tr?s esp?cies forrageiras t?m capacidade de al?vio da estrutura do solo compactado; por?m, a Brachiaria brizantha cv. MG-5 Vit?ria demonstrou ser a mais eficiente. / Disserta??o (Mestrado) ?

Three independent experiments were performed in a greenhouse with a randomized block design, in a double factorial. The experiments were with three forage species Bachiaria ruzizienses, Brachiaria brizantha cv. MG-5 Vit?ria and Panicum maximum cv. momba?a: the treatments: Four Degrees of Compaction (GC) ? 65%; 75%; 85% and 95% and four doses of nitrogen fertilizer? 0; 200; 250 e 300 Kg de N ha-1), with four replications. The experiment was conducted in pots in a greenhouse located at UFVJM JK campus, Diamantina-MG. At the site of the soil sampling used in the experiment, samples of 5kg approximately were collected to perform the normal Proctor test, determining soil density and humidity for each specimen. Once stipulated the GC, knowing the maximum density of the soil and the pot volume, it was possible to calculate the mass of soil to be placed in the pots for each GC. The samples were collected 90 days after sowing, to carry out evaluations in the laboratory. The variables analyzed in plants were: green mass production (MV) and dry matter (MS) of the shoot, height, root volume, crude protein (PB), neutral detergent fiber (FDN), acid detergent fiber (FDA) and lignin. To carry out the soil penetration resistance test (RP), the undisturbed soil samples were worked and saturated for a period of 48 h, next we started the RP readings. It was also performed the evaluation of RP in pots containing compacted soil with a 95% GC, before sowing and the modeling was performed by adjusting an exponential model of RP x humidity and they were compared statistically by an identity test of models. It was concluded that the MV, MS of the shoot, height of plants and crude protein content increased linearly with the application of nitrogen in all the studied forages. As it increases the nitrogen levels, the levels of FDN and FDA in all studied forages decreased. For the root volume, the Brachiaria brizantha cv. MG-5 Vit?ria responded linearly and positively to increasing doses of nitrogen in compacted soil. In the evaluation of soil physical properties, the soil cultivated with Brachiaria ruziziensis was the one that presented a higher RP in humidity at field capacity in the degree of compaction of 95%. The three forage species have relief capacity of the compacted soil structure, however, the Brachiaria brizantha cv. MG-5 Vit?ria proved to be the most efficient one.

The background of theses reflections is the carnival festivities in Recife-PE. In this context, attempts to changes as well as resistance to them maintaining the cultural values and the popular manifestations take a new dimension, presenting different ways of being nordestino. The option for the context of the carnival festivities is due to its significance to the people of this place, particularly as it is a space in which people represent themselves. The work presents a version of the history of carnival in Recife, identifies some manifestations that comprise it, analyzes its changes and shows the process of valuing the local culture in the latest years of the 20th century. The research also reveals how the popular culture assumes a functional and dynamic character where the themes of the popular traditions are being reworked. This process allows not only the survival of the local culture, but also the resistance against the capitalist project to construct a global culture and its uniform character. Even though the carnival festivity has become a mega show, composing a market design, it is still a space to construct differences and see the other. Lastly, for the people of that region, it is a space of fighting for a place in the international panorama / Este trabalho discute os impactos da globaliza??o na cultura nordestina, especificamente no universo da cultura popular. O pano de fundo dessas reflex?es ? os festejos carnavalescos da cidade do Recife-PE, pois nesse contexto se acolhe o novo, mas tamb?m se resiste ?s mudan?as, preserva-se os valores culturais e as manifesta??es populares tomam uma nova dimens?o, consubstanciando-se em novas formas de ser nordestino. A op??o pelo contexto da festa se deu por este ser de grande signific?ncia para o povo nordestino, e primordialmente por ser um espa?o no qual o povo se representa. O trabalho traz um hist?rico da festa de carnaval da cidade do Recife, identifica as manifesta??es que a comp?em, analisa as transforma??es ocorridas na festa e mostra o intenso processo de valoriza??o da cultura local que vem ocorrendo nos ?ltimos anos do s?culo XX. Revela, como em decorr?ncia desse processo, a cultura popular assume um car?ter funcional e din?mico onde as tem?ticas das tradi??es populares est?o sendo reformuladas e reapropriadas pela popula??o, permitindo a cultura popular nordestina n?o s? permanecer, como tamb?m, se impor ao projeto capitalista de cultura global e negar seu car?ter uniformizador. Mesmo que a festa carnavalesca esteja sendo transformada em mega-espet?culo com formato e padroniza??o de produto, deixando de ser um ritual e transformando-se em fonte de renda, alterando profundamente sua "fisionomia", continua sendo, para a gente daquele lugar o espa?o de edifica??o das diferen?as e da percep??o do outro, o espa?o de constitui??o da cidadania e da luta por se fazer respeitar e conquistar um "lugar" no panorama internacional

Al?m das altera??es hormonais e reprodutivas, ? comum na SOP a presen?a de fatores de risco para desenvolvimento de doen?as cardiovasculares (DCV) como diabetes mellitus, resist?ncia ? insulina (RI), obesidade visceral, inflama??o cr?nica de baixo grau e dislipidemia. Devido ? elevada frequ?ncia da obesidade associada ? SOP, a perda de peso ? considerada como o tratamento de primeira linha para a s?ndrome por melhorar as altera??es metab?licas e normalizar os andr?genos s?ricos, restaurando a fun??o reprodutiva destas pacientes. Objetivos: avaliar os marcadores inflamat?rios e a RI em mulheres com SOP e ovulat?rias saud?veis com diferentes estados nutricionais e como os par?metros inflamat?rios e hormonais se apresentam ap?s a perda de peso, atrav?s da restri??o cal?rica nas portadoras da s?ndrome. M?todos: O fator de necrose tumoralalfa (TNF-?), a interleucina-6 (IL-6) e a prote?na c-reativa (PCR) foram avaliados em amostras de soro de 40 mulheres em idade reprodutiva. Na primeira fase do estudo, as volunt?rias foram divididas em quatro grupos: Grupo I (n?o eutr?ficas com SOP, n=12); Grupo II (n?o eutr?ficas sem SOP, n=10), Grupo III (eutr?ficas com SOP, n=08) e Grupo IV (eutr?ficas sem SOP, n=10). A categoriza??o dos grupos foi realizada pelo ?ndice de massa corporal (IMC), de acordo com a organiza??o mundial de sa?de (OMS) em n?o eutr?fica, mulheres com IMC ? 25 (kg/m?) e eutr?ficas, IMC entre 18,9-24,9 (kg/m?). A RI foi determinada atrav?s do ?ndice HOMA-IR. Na segunda fase do estudo foi realizada uma interven??o nutricional controlada e os par?metros inflamat?rios foram avaliados em 21 mulheres sobrepeso e obesas com SOP, antes e depois da perda de peso. Todas as pacientes receberam uma dieta hipocal?rica com redu??o de 500 kcal/dia do consumo habitual com concentra??es padr?o de macronutrientes. Resultados: Fase 1: pacientes com SOP apresentaram n?veis aumentados da PCR (p<0,01) e HOMA-IR (p<0,01). Quando divididas por IMC, tanto o grupo n?o eutr?fico com SOP (I) quanto eutr?fico com SOP(III) apresentou n?veis aumentados de PCR (I=2,35?0,55mg/L e III= 2,63?0,65mg/L; p<0,01) e HOMA-IR (I= 2,16?2,54 e III= 1,07?0,55; p<0,01). N?o foram encontradas diferen?as de TNF-? e IL-6 entre os grupos. Fase 2: Ap?s a perda de peso de 5% do peso inicial ocorreu uma redu??o em todos os n?veis s?ricos dos componentes do perfil inflamat?rio avaliados, PCR (154.75 ? 19.33) vs (78.06 ? 9.08), TNF- ? (10.89 ? 5.09) vs (6.39 ? 1.41) e IL6 (154.75 ? 19.33) vs (78.06 ? 9.08) (p < 0.00) em associa??o com a melhora de alguns par?metros hormonais avaliados. Conclus?o: A SOP contribuiu para o surgimento da inflama??o cr?nica e das altera??es no metabolismo da glicose atrav?s do aumento da PCR, da insulina e do HOMA-IR, independente do estado nutricional e a perda de peso melhoraram o estado inflamat?rio e o perfil hormonal das pacientes avaliadas. / The polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is considered the most common endocrine disorder in reproductive age women, with a prevalence ranging from 15 to 20%. In addition to hormonal and reproductive changes, it is common in PCOS the presence of risk factors for developing cardiovascular disease (CVD) and diabetes mellitus, insulin resistance (IR), visceral obesity, chronic low-grade inflammation and dyslipidemia. Due to the high frequency of obesity associated with PCOS, weight loss is considered as the first-line treatment for the syndrome by improving metabolic and normalizes serum androgens, restoring reproductive function of these patients. Objectives: To evaluate the inflammatory markers and IR in women with PCOS and healthy ovulatory with different nutritional status and how these parameters are displayed after weight loss through caloric restriction in with Down syndrome. Methods: Tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-?), interleukin-6 (IL-6) and C-reactive protein (CRP) were assessed in serum samples from 40 women of childbearing age. The volunteers were divided into four groups: Group I (not eutrophic with PCOS, n = 12); Group II (not eutrophic without PCOS, n = 10), Group III (eutrophic with PCOS, n = 08) and Group IV (eutrophic without PCOS, n = 10). The categorization of groups was performed by body mass index (BMI), according to the World Health Organization (WHO) does not eutrophic, overweight and obesity (BMI> 25 kg / m?) and normal weight (BMI <24.9 kg / m?). IR was determined by HOMA-IR index. In the second phase of the study a controlled dietary intervention was performed and inflammatory parameters were evaluated in 21 overweight and obese women with PCOS, before and after weight loss. All patients received a low-calorie diet with reduction of 500 kcal / day of regular consumption with standard concentrations of macronutrients. Results: Phase 1: PCOS patients showed increased levels of CRP (p <0.01) and HOMAIR (p <0.01). When divided by BMI, both not eutrophic group with PCOS (I) as eutrophic with PCOS (III) showed increased levels of CRP (I = 2.35 ? 0,55mg / L and 2.63 ? III = 0,65mg / L; p <0.01) and HOMA-IR (I = 2.16 ? 2.54 and III = 1.07 ? 0.55; p <0.01). There were no differences in TNF-? and IL-6 between groups. Step 2: After the weight loss of 5% of the initial weight was reduced in all of the components of serum assessed inflammatory profile, PCR (154.75 ? 19:33) vs (78.06 ? 8.9) TNF ? (10.89 ? 5.09) vs (6:39 ? 1:41) and IL6 (154.75 ? 19:33) vs (78.06 ? 08.09) (p <0:00) in association with improvement some hormonal parameters evaluated. Conclusion: PCOS contributed to the development of chronic inflammation and changes in glucose metabolism by increasing CRP, insulin and HOMA-IR, independent of nutritional status. The weight loss, caloric restriction has improved the inflammatory condition and hormonal status of the evaluated patients.

Durante a usinagem dos blocos de zirc?nia para diversos tipos de implantes odontol?gicos, grande parte do material ? desprendida na forma de p?, que posteriormente ? descartado. A zirc?nia tetragonal estabilizada com 3% em mol de ?tria (Y-TZP) possui uma variedade de aplica??es na ?rea de engenharia e biom?dica devido ? sua ?tima combina??o de resist?ncia, tenacidade ? fratura, condutividade i?nica e baixa condutividade t?rmica. Al?m do dano para o meio ambiente, o desperd?cio deste material resulta em preju?zo financeiro, refletindo em elevado custo final no tratamento para os pacientes. Os materiais de partida utilizados neste trabalho foram dois diferentes p?s do sistema cer?mico ZrO3-Y2O3: zirc?nia comercial nanoparticulada e res?duo de zirc?nia microparticulado. Os p?s foram conformados por prensagem uniaxial e isost?tica e em seguida sinterizadas a 1500, 1550 e 1600 ?C, durante 1 hora. As t?cnicas de granulometria a laser, difra??o de raios X (DRX), e dilatometria foram utilizadas para caracteriza??o do p?. Ap?s sinterizados, foram realizados ensaios de densidade e porosidade, difra??o de raios X (DRX), resist?ncia mec?nica ? flex?o, microdureza Vickers e an?lise de tenacidade ? fratura, e microscopia eletr?nica de varredura (MEV). As amostras compactadas via prensagem isost?tica apresentaram valores de porosidade inferiores a 0,78% e demostraram maior efetividade de compacta??o comparada ? via uniaxial. Foi observado nos difratogramas de raios X, com o aumento da temperatura, a intensidade dos picos da fase monocl?nica diminuiu. A temperatura de sinteriza??o influenciou de forma moderada a microdureza das amostras, demostrando pequenos acr?scimos da dureza at? a temperatura de 1600?C. A resist?ncia ? flex?o do res?duo de zirc?nia aumenta com o aumento da temperatura de sinteriza??o, para ambas as vias de compacta??o, apresentando melhores valores por via isost?tica. / The actual use of natural resources on accelerated economic growth, resulting in continuous increase of industrial waste, and to remove these residues, a recycling process is preferably na attractive solution. During the machining of blocks of zirconia to several types of dental implants, most of the material is loosened as a powder, which is subsequently discarded. The stabilized tetragonal zirconia with 3% yttria (Y-TZP) mol boasts a variety of applications in engineering, and biomedical, because of its great combination of strength, fracture toughness, ionic conductivity and low thermal conductivity. Besides the damage to the environment wasting of the material resulting in financial loss, reflecting the high final cost of medical treatment for patients. The starting materials used in this work were two different powders ZrO3-Y2O3ceramic system: commercial zirconia nanoparticulate and microparticulate zirc?nia residue. The powder was uniaxially and isostatically pressed and then sintered at 1500, 1550 and 1600 ? C for 1 hour. The techniques of laser granulometry, X-ray diffraction (XRD) and dilatometry were used for powder characterization. After sintering were performed density and porosity tests, X-ray diffraction (XRD), Flexural strength, microhardness and fracture toughness analysis, and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Samples compacted via isostatic pressing showed values less than 0.78% porosity and demonstrated greater effectiveness compared to uniaxial compression. Was observed in X-ray diffra ction, that with increasing temperature, the intensity of the peaks of monoclinic phase is decreased. The sintering temperature moderately has influenced on the microhardness of samples, showing small increases in hardness to temperature of 1600 ? C. The flexural strength of zirconia residue increases with increasing sintering temperature for both routes of compression, showing the best values for isostatic compression.
