1. Validation of the Brazilian version of the child pain catastrophizing scale and its relationship with a marker of central sensitization
Abstract Objectives The Pain Catastrophizing Scale-Child version (PCS-C) allows to identify children who are prone to catastrophic thinking. We aimed to adapt the Brazilian version of PCS-C (BPCS-C) to examine scale psychometric properties and factorial structure in children with and without chronic pain. Also, we assessed its correlation with salivary leve

2. Re: Reflections on the COVID-19 Pandemic
ABSTRACT Objective To investigate the effect of perioperative complications involving artificial urinary sphincter (AUS) implantation on rates of explantation and continence as well as health-related quality of life (HRQOL). Materials and methods Inclusion criteria encompassed non-neurogenic, moderate-to-severe stress urinary incontinence (SUI) post radi

3. The impact of perioperative complications on favorable outcomes after artificial urinary sphincter implantation for post-prostatectomy incontinence
ABSTRACT Objective To investigate the effect of perioperative complications involving artificial urinary sphincter (AUS) implantation on rates of explantation and continence as well as health-related quality of life (HRQOL). Materials and methods Inclusion criteria encompassed non-neurogenic, moderate-to-severe stress urinary incontinence (SUI) post radi

4. Antiedematogenic activity of the indole derivative N-salicyloyltryptamine in animal models
ABSTRACT The N-salicyloyltryptamine (NST) is an indole derivative compound analogue to the alkaloid N-benzoyltryptamine. In the present study, the antiedematogenic activity of NST was investigated in animal models. Firstly, the acute toxicity for NST was assessed according to the OECD Guideline no. 423. The potential NST-induced antiedematogenic activity was

5. Lateral decubitus position vs. lithotomy position: which is the best way to minimize patient’s pain perception during transrectal prostate biopsy?
ABSTRACT Introduction Considering the distinctive nature in terms of psychological stress and anal tone of position which is generally selected between lithotomy and left lateral decubitus (LLD), we postulated its effect on pain perception during biopsy, and investigated their association. Materials and Methods A prospective study for comparison of two b

6. Tunelamento quântico e a conjectura da censura cósmica / Quantum tunneling and the cosmic censorhip conjecture
A Conjectura da Censura Cosmica, proposta por Roger Penrose em 1969, afirma que singularidades resultantes de um colapso gravitacional estão sempre envolvidas pelo horizonte de eventos de um buraco negro. O objetivo desse trabalho é investigar processos de tunelamento quântico que visam violar essa conjectura. Através do formalismo de Newman-Penrose, é

7. Etnicity and Coalition: a study about social categorization in group conflict context / Etnia e coalizão: um estudo sobre categorização social em um contexto de conflito grupal
For a cross-cultural comparison of context influences in ethnicity encoding, two variations of the Memory Confusion Protocol (MCP) were applied on Brazilians. Both variations consist in a slide-show exposition of a discussion between two rival teams, with black and white players on both sides, in two forms: Control (teams with identical grey colour) and Expe

8. Análogos de gravitação semi-clássica em física da matéria condensada / Analogue models of semi-classical gravity in condensate matter physics
This dissertation has as object of study systems of condensate-matter physics which can simulate gravitational systems like black holes and expanding universes where quantum processes take place. In this study we lay attention mainly on the fluid model and on Bose-Einstein-condensate-based models. In the fluid model we explore the features of the emergent ge

9. Discursos de intervenção: o cinema de propaganda ideológica para o CPC e o ipês às vésperas do golpe de 1964 / Discursos de intervenção: o cinema de propaganda ideológica para o CPC e o ipês às vésperas do golpe de 1964
The present dissertation aims the investigation of the political propaganda film industry production between 1961 and 1964 by two ideological character associations: the Instituto de Pesquisas e Estudos Sociais Ipês (Research and Social Studies Institute), managed especially by liberal and anticommunist rich businessmen; and the Centro Popular de Cultura CP

10. Supplementation of BWH cows and ½ BWH ½ Jersey cows kept in tropical pasture with the isopropyl ester of methionine analog (HMBi) / Suplementação de vacas HPB e vacas 1/2 HPB 1/2 Jersey mantidas em pastagem tropical com o éster isopropílico do análogo de metionina (HMBi)
In this trial, was tested the inclusion of isopropyl ester of methionine analogue (HMBi) in the concentrate of BWH cows and ½ BWH ½ Jersey cows kept in pastures of Elephant grass, with the goal of achieving lysine: methionine ratio of 3:1 in metabolizable protein. Variables analyzed were milk production and composition. The forage mass and the nutritional

11. The Feynman propagator for quantum gravity: spin foams, proper time, orientation, causality and timeless-ordering
We discuss the notion of causality in Quantum Gravity in the context of sum-over-histories approaches, in the absence therefore of any background time parameter. In the spin foam formulation of Quantum Gravity, we identify the appropriate causal structure in the orientation of the spin foam 2-complex and the data that characterize it; we construct a generali

12. Non gravitational black holes
Analogue models of general relativity have recently been considered with great interest by the scientific community. They connect branches of physics as different as gravitation, condensed matter physics, electrodynamics, acoustics, and quantum field theory. One of the main expectations about such models lies on the possibility of testing in laboratory some
