This thesis is the result of a study on Visual Artistic Language in Daycare Center, aiming to understand its contributions to the expansion of the aesthetic dimension during childhood. It was characterized as a research built from the notion of meshwork developed by Tim Ingold. Such perspective stems from the understanding of the importance of movement, of encounters with threads-life-existences in the production of implicated knowledge, grounded in the challenge of distancing oneself from an...
Objectives: To characterize patients with difficult-to-treat rheumatoid arthritis (D2T-RA) followed at a tertiary center in Northeastern Brazil, correlating disease activity indices with ultrasound findings using the US10 score. Methods: This cross-sectional study was based on clinical examination, laboratory findings, medical record review and joint ultrasound evaluation. Nineteen women diagnosed with D2T-RA, defined according to EULAR 2021 criteria, were included between May and September...
The HTLV-1 is the first retrovirus identified with oncogenic potential in humans and has well-documented relationship with the adult T-cell lymphoma (ATL) pathogenesis. One of the endemic countries for this disease is Brazil and the highest number of cases are described in the north and northeast regions. The clinical progression occurs after a long latency period , and cutaneous lesions are common present in the clinical presentation. They can usually be the first manifestation in asymptomat...
This study aims to reflect on public health policies directed at people who use alcohol and other drugs in the municipality of Salvador, Bahia, analyzing the services provided, the disputes between paradigms guiding such policies, and the conflicts surrounding public funding. A descriptive-explanatory methodology was adopted, based on a bibliographic review (theses, dissertations, and academic articles) and documentary research (laws, institutional reports, and regulations), articulating crit...
The skin of Nile tilapia is an abundant source of type I collagen, structurally similar to human skin, making it a promising material for the development of bio-based dressings. This study aimed to formulate a hydrogel from collagen extracted from tilapia skin, structured with konjac gum, which acts as a gelling, anti-inflammatory, and woundhealing agent. Initially, technological and patent prospecting was carried out, including the analysis of 25 patents and 12 scientific articles related to...
This text presents part of the research that resulted in a doctoral thesis defended, in 2020, at the Postgraduate Program in Anthropology of the Federal University of Bahia. The objective is to highlight the approach to gender relations in the context of the coco babaçu production chain in the micro-region of Médio Mearim. The feminist character – critical and engaged – of the aforementioned thesis is reaffirmed with respect to the inequality or asymmetry or hierarchy observed in gender relat...
Studies have shown that certain survival datasets are not adequately represented by the proportional hazards model proposed by Cox (1972), highlighting the need for alternative approaches that accommodate non-proportional hazards. This limitation has driven the deve- lopment of models that expand the analytical possibilities in survival analysis. In this context, the Generalized Time-Dependent Logistic (GTDL) family stands out as a promising alternative to the Cox model, as it allows mod...
This study examined the Brazilian Judiciary's role in promoting political citizenship among homeless people, focusing specifically on the Electoral Court's efforts to guarantee the right to vote for this segment of society. This is a qualitative, exploratory, and descriptive study, using bibliographic and documentary sources. Specifically, the sociohistorical, theoretical, conceptual, and social activism aspects of this social group were identified and analyzed, demonstrating that t...
Environmental contamination is a growing global concern, driving the development of alternative mitigation strategies. Heterogeneous photocatalysis is a promising approach, yet conventional semiconductors such as titanium dioxide and iron oxide face limitations, including the need for artificial UV radiation and rapid electron-hole recombination. This work explores the synthesis and application of novel composites based on titanium dioxide, iron oxide, and carbonaceous material derived from m...
The concrete supply chain in the construction industry still relies on analog processes that hinder traceability, compromise transaction reliability, and lead to conflicts between contractors and suppliers. These challenges are especially critical in cast-in-place systems, where the control over concrete delivery, receipt, and payment is fragmented. This study proposes a smart contract prototype, named BIMLedger, which integrates blockchain technology, smart contracts, and Building Informatio...
Correlation between right ventricular function and diffusing capacity for carbon monoxide (DLCO) in systemic sclerosis: a cross-sectional study. [Rheumatology Residency Final Paper]. Rheumatology Service, Professor Edgard Santos University Hospital (HUPES/UFBA), 2025. Introduction: Systemic sclerosis (SSc) is an autoimmune disease characterized by vasculopathy and fibrosis of multiple organs, in which cardiopulmonary involvement is a major determinant of prognosis. Assessment of right ventri...
La disertación conecta la gestión social y la recomposición de los aprendizajes de los estudiantes de la pre-escuela en la ciudad de San Francisco del Conde. Se trata de un estudio de caso realizado en la Escuela Juvenal Eugênio de Queiroz, ubicada en la ciudad de San Francisco del Conde, en Bahía, donde la investigadora actúa profesionalmente, haciéndola sujeto implicado de la pesquisa. La cuestión guía está fundamentada en el modo como el proceso de recomposición de los aprendizajes puede s...
The aim of this research was to analyze how lesbians and/or lesbian identities appear in decisions of the Superior Court of Justice (STJ), in order to understand how these identities are juridically (re)produced. To this end, the specific objectives included a discussion on cisheteronormativity in the legal system, with an emphasis on lesbofeminist critique. Subsequently, monocratic decisions and judgments from the STJ related to legal cases involving lesbians or lesbian identities ...
The objective of this dissertation is to analyze the housing arrangements in the parish of Conceição da Praia, commercial and port neighborhood of the city of Salvador, between 1824 and 1836. Taken by a enslaved and liberated population, which, together with the white, merchant and/or impoverished population, divided the most diverse spaces in search of a place to live. In addition, we mapped the parish of Conceição understanding how the population was divided between streets, alleys, al...
