1. Accuracy of the Simplified Version of the Global Risk Score in Detecting Cardiovascular Risk in Women from Quilombola Communities in the State of Alagoas, Brazil
Abstract Background: Cardiovascular risk (CVR) monitoring is important for defining preventive actions against cardiovascular disease; this condition prevails more intensely in scenarios with less infrastructure such as African descent communities. The Framingham Risk Score (FRS) and the Global Risk Score (GRS) have been used in Brazil for CVR monitoring ba

2. THE HARSANYI-RAWLS DEBATE: POLITICAL PHILOSOPHY AS DECISION THEORY UNDER UNCERTAINTY
Abstract Social decisions are often made under great uncertainty - in situations where political principles, and even standard subjective expected utility, do not apply smoothly. In the first section, we argue that the core of this problem lies in decision theory itself - it is about how to act when we do not have an adequate representation of the context of

3. CLASSIFICAÇÃO DAS SUBSTÂNCIAS QUÍMICAS: UM CONCEITO POUCO EXPLORADO NA EDUCAÇÃO QUÍMICA
The classification of chemical substances is a concept little explored in Chemistry teaching literature and in Chemistry textbooks at higher and secondary levels. The aim of this paper is to discuss theoretically the importance and contributions of this concept for teaching and learning Chemistry. The History of Chemistry reveals that the chemical criteria f

4. OTIMIZAÇÃO E VALIDAÇÃO DE MÉTODO ENZIMÁTICO SEMIQUANTITATIVO SIMPLES E DE BAIXO CUSTO PARA A BUSCA DE INIBIDORES DE CISTEINO PROTEASES
Cysteine proteases are an important class of enzymes involved in several essential biological processes. For this reason, these enzymes are important therapeutic targets, and therefore can be used in enzymatic assays for the search of hits. The most widely used methods in the search of enzyme inhibitors are spectrophotometric, however they have relatively hi

5. Rapid and Inexpensive Colorimetric Detection of Total Serum Protein Using Microzone Plates Wax-Printed on Polyester Films
This report describes a rapid and inexpensive colorimetric method based on biuret assay for total serum protein analysis using wax printed microzone plates and a desktop scanner. The colorimetric assay was performed in 96-microzone plates fabricated on polyester films through a wax printing protocol. The image scanning mode and the concentration of the biure

6. GALILEO’S PENDULUM AS A MAGNETIC BALANCE FOR STUDYING CHEMICAL MAGNETISM AT HOME
A very simple, but rich experiment, encompassing a classical Galileo’s pendulum, has been devised to be performed at home, especially during the Covid-19 pandemics. The experiment uses a miniature supermagnet rod as the pendulum oscillating element suspended from a fixed sewing thread. Its physics can be fully investigated, allowing to study the oscillatio

7. Arsenic and Other Elements Determination in Seawater Using Coprecipitation and Standard Mode Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry
The present work aims the determination of As, Co, Cr, Cu, Mn and Pb in seawater samples using coprecipitation extraction procedure before standard mode inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) (no collision/reaction cell). The coprecipitation procedure is based on the precipitation of Mg(OH)2 from the reaction of the Mg2+ ions (present into the

9. Relationships among oncostatin M, insulin resistance, and chronic inflammation: a pilot study
ABSTRACT Objective Activated macrophages (M1-type macrophages) in adipose tissue secrete many proinflammatory cytokines that induce insulin resistance (IR). Oncostatin M (OSM), a member of the interleukin-6 (IL-6) family of Gp130 cytokines, plays an important role in a variety of biological functions, including the regulation of inflammatory responses. Pro
