13. Video-based cognitive-behavioral intervention for COVID-19 anxiety: a randomized controlled trial
Abstract Objective Cognitive-behavioral interventions can be effective for relieving anxiety associated with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), but complications such as social distancing, quarantine, a shortage of experts, and delayed care provisions have made it difficult to access face-to-face therapeutic interventions. The purpose of this study was t

14. Comparative Study of Degradation of Reactive Dyes and Decolorization and Detoxification in Aqueous Solution Applying DyP Peroxidases Isolated from Saccharomonospora viridis (SviDyP) and Thermobifida fusca (TfuDyp)
The wastewater that originates from the widespread usage of synthetic dyes in the industry have become a severe environmental problem. Several efforts have been made to develop new types of treatment which are capable of performing the degradation of the dyes from the environment. Within this scope, much attention has been drawn to enzymatic approaches, main

15. Impacts of grade configuration on Brazilian student outcomes
Abstract In this paper we evaluate the impact of grade span configuration on student outcomes. We build a model which shows that the more homogeneous the cohort of students the higher the share of them which achieves the minimum level of academic performance required in an exam. We then test this theoretical finding by comparing performances of 5th-grade stu

16. The payroll tax exemption in Brazil: Structural and quasi-experimental perspectives
Abstract This paper estimates the payroll tax exemption effects by two alternative approaches. First, a Quasi-experiment which takes into account the fact that firms under the tax regime called Simples already do not pay payroll taxes to define such group of firms as control. The other approach was a structural model which considers payroll tax as a source o

19. Characterization of Otto Chips by Particle Swarm Optimization
Abstract Recently a surface plasmon resonance (SPR) optical sensor, based on the Otto configuration — the Otto chip — has been developed. One essential step in the quality control of the fabrication process is characterization of the active region of several devices in a batch. Characterization is done by measuring the angular spectrum of the optical re

20. Gluten-free cookies from sorghum and Turkish beans; effect of some non-conventional and commercial hydrocolloids on their technological and sensory attributes
Abstract Consumption of gluten-free products is the best possible option for patients with celiac disease. The development of gluten-free cookies may provide a suitable alternative for individuals who are gluten-intolerant. The purpose of this research was to assess the use of hydrocolloids as gluten substitutes in cookies. Commercially available (gum Arabic

22. Identification of Two Additional Behaviorally Active Gland Constituents of Female Diatraea saccharalis (Fabricius) (Lepidoptera: Crambidae)
The sugarcane borer, Diatraea saccharalis (Fabricius), is the major pest insect attacking sugarcane crops in Brazil. Population control by insecticide treatment is not efficient due to simultaneous presence of all developmental stages of the insect throughout the year, and alternative control methods are needed. Two female-produced sex pheromone components,

23. Staghorn renal stones: what the urologist needs to know
ABSTRACT Patients with staghorn renal stones are challenging cases, requiring careful preoperative evaluation and close follow-up to avoid stone recurrence. In this article we aim to discuss the main topics related to staghorn renal stones with focus on surgical approach. Most of staghorn renal stones are composed of struvite (magnesium ammonium phosphate) a

24. ‘Trifecta’ outcomes of robot-assisted partial nephrectomy: Results of the ‘low volume’ surgeon
ABSTRACT Objective There is limited data regarding surgeon volume and partial nephrectomy outcomes. The aim of this study is to report trifecta outcomes of robot-assisted partial nephrectomy (RAPN) performed by the low volume surgeon. Materials and Methods Thirty-nine patients with clinical T1-2 renal tumors who underwent RAPN between 2012 and 2018 were
