En este artículo indagamos en las memorias revolucionarias posibles en un contexto histórico democrático post-dictadura, pero también post-derrota de una experiencia militante única en nuestra historia reciente. Nos preguntamos por los recuerdos de las y los protagonistas de esas acciones políticas radicalizadas. Partimos de una historia situada, de la investigación doctoral, que nos permitió achicar el foco de análisis para indagar en profundidad en los sentidos de aquellas experiencias. Reflexionamos sobre las memorias de militantes que integraron organizaciones político-militares (OPM) revolucionarias peronistas entre 1969 y 1973 en la ciudad de Santa Fe. La puerta de entrada a esas memorias y experiencias vividas es un conjunto de entrevistas orales. Indagamos en torno a los sentidos y significaciones de las narrativas que los propios protagonistas de los años ’70 expresaron en sus relatos. Atendimos a los marcos sociales de las memorias y al contexto histórico en el que tuvieron lugar sus experiencias con expectativa revolucionaria que atravesó el horizonte político de sus acciones y prácticas. El estudio de las experiencias militantes de los primeros años ‘70 desde el abordaje local presenta la posibilidad de enfatizar en las singularidades y complejizar el tema, sin perder de vista la totalidad del proceso histórico. ácticas.

La distonía laríngea (DL), también conocida como disfonía espasmódica, es un desorden focal tarea-específico del movimiento, que afecta primariamente la producción de la voz. Los movimientos distónicos de las cuerdas vocales producen fenómenos diferentes, especialmente quiebres o interrupciones vocales y tensión en el tipo de distonía laríngea aductora (DLAD), e interrupciones y soplo o segmentos áfonos en el tipo abductor (DLAB). Más del 80% de pacientes sufren de DLAD o DEAD (disfonía espasmódica aductora). Dos pacientes de sexo femenino desarrollaron DL un mes después de haber contraído una infección del tracto respiratorio superior causada por COVID-19. Ambas presentaron distonía laríngea de tipo aductor. En el análisis acústico de la vocal /a/ sostenida se han observado quiebres o interrupciones, cambios frecuenciales y aperiodicidad. El rango de habla fue estudiado en ambas pacientes mediante el fonetograma, dando un resultado alterado. Posiblemente la inflamación de los nervios periféricos de la laringe, causada por COVID-19, produjo una alteración sensitiva con una respuesta mal adaptativa en estas pacientes con una base genética quizás predisponente. O la activación inmunológica, o la invasión del germen a través de la vía retrógrada alteraron las redes neuronales involucradas en la génesis de la DL.

ABSTRACT OBJECTIVE To investigate the effects of depressive symptoms in childhood on the intellectual development of young adults. METHODS Study conducted with a birth cohort of São Luís, Maranhão, Brazil, composed of 339 participants evaluated between 7 and 9 years and between 18 and 19 years. Structural equation modeling (young adult education, sex, race/color) and childhood variables (nutritional status, depressive symptoms, cognitive function, head of household’s and mother’s education, family income) were used. In addition, head of household’s occupation, mother’s age, and presence of partner were tested as determinants of adults’ intelligence quotient (IQ). RESULTS Presence of depressive symptoms in childhood triggered a reduction of 0.342 in standard deviation (SD) and -3.83 points in the average IQ of adults (p-value < 0.001). Cognitive function in childhood had a total and direct positive effect (standardized coefficient [SC] = 0.701; p-value < 0.001) on IQ, increasing 7.84 points with each increase in level. A positive indirect effect of child nutritional status (SC = 0.194; p-value = 0.045), head of household’s (SC = 0.162; p-value = 0.036), and mother’s education was identified, the latter mediated by cognitive function in childhood (SC = 0.215; p-value = 0.012) on the IQ of young people. CONCLUSION Presence of depressive symptoms in childhood triggered a long-term negative effect on intelligence, reducing the IQ score in adulthood.

ABSTRACT OBJECTIVE To analyze the association between modifiable behavioral risk factors for non-communicable diseases and sleep parameters in Brazilian adolescents. METHODS This was a cross-sectional study that used data from the RPS Cohort Consortium, São Luís, Brazil for the follow-up of adolescents aged 18–19 years (n = 2,515). The outcomes were excessive daytime sleepiness (Epworth Sleepiness Scale – ESS) and sleep quality (Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index – PSQI). The exposures of interest were the behavioral risk factors for non-communicable diseases (NCDs): screen time, physical inactivity, alcohol, smoking, illicit drugs, caffeine intake, and consumption of sugar-sweetened beverages. Excess weight was considered a possible mediator of this association between the exposures of interest and the outcomes. The models were analyzed by modeling with structural equations. RESULTS Physical inactivity (standardized coefficient, SC = 0.112; p = 0.001), higher consumption of alcohol (SC = 0.168; p = 0.019) and of sugar-sweetened beverages (SC = 0.128; p < 0.001) were associated with excessive daytime sleepiness in adolescents; better socioeconomic status was also associated with this outcome (SC = 0.128; p < 0.001). Physical inactivity (SC = 0.147; p < 0.001) and higher consumption of sugar-sweetened beverages (SC = 0.089; p = 0.003) were also associated with poor sleep quality. Overweight was neither a mediator nor associated with sleep quality or excessive daytime sleepiness. CONCLUSIONS The main modifiable behavioral risk factors for NCDs are associated with worse sleep parameters already in adolescence, which serves as a warning toward the accumulation of risks for sleep disorders in the future.

Introduction: several studies have suggested that low and high birth weight are associated with obesity (OB) and overweight (OW) during childhood and adulthood. Objectives: to determine the association between birth weight and OB in 9-year-old schoolchildren from three areas of Argentina. Materials an methods: anthropometric measurements and blood pressure (BP) were taken in 1.131 schoolchildren (505 males) of an average age of 8.8±2.1 years in three areas of Argentina during 2019. Mothers were asked about their children’s birth weight and lifestyle. Results: 21.1% (239) of the children had OW (BMI>85 95 percentile). The prevalence of low birth weight (4.000 g) was 7.3% (n=82). The 9-year-old z-BMI score increased significantly with increasing birth weight: low birth weight (z-BMI=0.33), normal (z-BMI=0.72) and high (z-BMI=1.12). In multiple logistic regression models, it was found that low birth weight was inversely associated with OB (OR, 0.41 [95% CI: 0.19-0.92]), while high birth weight was directly associated with OB adjusted for age and sex (OR, 2.48 [95% CI 1.53-4.02]). Conclusions: our data indicate that high birth weight, but not low birth weight, is associated with OB in 9-year-old schoolchildren, while low birth weight is inversely associated with OB.

Neste artigo, objetiva-se verificar o conhecimento do aluno sobre os conceitos de área e perímetro de figuras planas. Foram apresentados, para isso, dois questionários a respeito do assunto em questão. O primeiro deles é de familiarização com as ideias presentes em tais conceitos. Já o segundo tem como objetivo verificar a compreensão do conceito de área e de perímetro por meio da aplicação de questões envolvendo tais assuntos. Os referidos questionários foram submetidos a cento e oitenta e um alunos da Rede Pública de Ensino, sendo eles oriundos de duas Escolas Municipais e uma Estadual do Rio de Janeiro. Ao término de ambos os questionários foi realizada a socialização das respostas encontradas pelos discentes. Baseado em nosso referencial teórico, procuramos investigar, com isso, a compreensão destes conceitos por parte dos alunos. Nestas socializações, constatamos as dificuldades apresentadas por eles com relação à geometria e, em particular, com o assunto: área e perímetro de figuras planas.

Resulta importante reflexionar acerca de la preocupación social por los efectos del cambio climático sobre las personas discapacitadas, debido a su natural vulnerabilidad. El nivel de riesgo ante los desastres, exacerbado por el deterioro del medio ambiente, es superior en este sector poblacional que requiere una atención diferenciada que incremente su resiliencia al respecto.

To determine the mutagen agent potency and deduce an optimum dose, cytological analysis for induced chromosomal aberrations is considered as an accurate index in mutation breeding. Therefore, the present investigation was carried out to estimate the relative frequency and spectrum of meiotic abnormalities at various stages of cell division using Gamma rays, EMS and their combination treatments in M1 generation of black gram (Vigna mungo L. Hepper) varieties Pant U-30 and T-9. The analysis of M1 plants revealed a wide range of induced meiotic abnormalities like univalents, multivalents, laggards, chromatin bridges, micronuclei and chromosome stickiness by different mutagen doses. In addition to these, behavioral changes like precocious separation of chromosomes at metaphase, unequal separation of bivalents at anaphase, disturbed polarity and cytomixis at telophase were observed at low frequency. A linear relationship between the frequency of chromosomal aberrations and the strength of mutagen doses was observed in both the varieties and mutagen types. It was found that the combined treatments induced meiotic abnormalities at a higher frequency as compared to individual treatments of Gamma rays and EMS. Comparative estimation of induced cytological abnormalities suggested higher mutagenic sensitivity of var. Pant U-30 than the var. T-9 towards the treatments used. This also confirmed the relatively broader genetic tolerance level of black gram var. T-9 in inducing a significant amount of viable mutations without much lethality at the mutagen doses recommended in this study. Therefore, it can be concluded that the combine treatments of Gamma rays and EMS (300Gy+0.2%, 200Gy+0.3%) are relatively more effective for induction mutations in var. T-9 at the genotypic tolerable level.

This article details our pathway in forming an activist caregiver collective at our institution in response to the unsustainable conditions of concurrently working, parenting, and caregiving during a pandemic. Through a parentscholar collaborative autoethnography, we interrogate structures deeply embedded in higher education that perpetuate existing inequities and invisibilize the labor of caregiving faculty--structures which have been made more visible with the coronavirus pandemic. The narratives documented here were all written in the midst of a global health crisis and a global reckoning for a more just world, and have enabled us to process our personal relationships to the dominant business model of higher education, also referred to as the “neoliberal university.” As caregiving academics, educators, and activists, we believe it crucial to enunciate our stories of struggle and joy in dialogue with the important interventions and conceptual maneuvers of the “Decolonial Turn.” We write with the following intentions: (1) To center caregivers as agents of change in the interrelated projects to decolonize both schools and society; (2) To document our voices and experiences as living curriculums that others may draw upon, extend, or even recreate for their specific contexts; and (3) To identify how our lived experiences, shaped by larger social forces, have enabled us a particular way of seeing/being that recognizes the critical relationship between decolonizing and caregiving.

ABSTRACT OBJECTIVE: To analyze the effects of early determinants on adolescent fat-free mass. METHODS: A cohort study with 579 adolescents evaluated at birth and adolescence in a birth cohort in São Luís, Maranhão. In the proposed model, estimated by structural equation modeling, socioeconomic status (SES) at birth, maternal age, pregestational body mass index (BMI), gestational smoking, gestational weight gain, type of delivery, gestational age, sex of the newborn, length and weight at birth, adolescent socioeconomic status, “neither study/nor work” generation, adolescent physical activity level and alcohol consumption were tested as early determinants of adolescent fat-free mass (FFM). RESULTS: A higher pregestational BMI resulted in higher FFM in adolescence (Standardized Coefficient, SC = 0.152; p < 0.001). Being female implied a lower FFM in adolescence (SC = −0.633; p < 0.001). The negative effect of gender on FFM was direct (SC = −0.523; p < 0.001), but there was an indirect negative effect via physical activity level (SC = −0.085; p < 0.001). Women were less active (p < 0.001). An increase of 0.5 kg (1 Standard Deviation, SD) in birth weight led to a gain of 0.25 kg/m2 (0.106 SD) in adolescent FFM index (p = 0.034). Not studying or working had a negative effect on the adolescent's FFM (SC = −0.106; p = 0.015). Elevation of 1 SD in the adolescent's physical activity level represented an increase of 0.5 kg/m2 (0.207 SD) in FFM index (p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS: The early determinants with the greatest effects on adolescent FFM are gender, adolescent physical activity level, pregestational BMI, birth weight and belonging to the “neither-nor” generation.
