1. Osteoarthritis model induced by intra-articular monosodium iodoacetate in rats knee
ABSTRACT PURPOSE: To evaluate the usefulness of a knee osteoarthritis model through functional, radiological and microscopic changes of the synovial membrane. METHODS: Forty eight rats were divided randomly into two groups. The first received 0.9% saline in the joint and corresponded to the control group. The second was submitted to experimental osteoarthr

2. Análise instrumental de uma maquete tátil para a aprendizagem de probabilidade por alunos cegos / Instrumental analysis of a tactile-type model for learning probability of blind students
Esta tese teve como objetivo identificar a potencialidade de um material didático (MD), do tipo maquete tátil, para a aprendizagem de conceitos básicos de Probabilidade (cbP) por alunos cegos. A pesquisa, de cunho qualitativo, investigou a concepção, construção e avaliação do MD e, para tal, procedeu com as adaptações necessárias para atender ao

3. Presentes nupciais em Paratrechalea ornata Carico, 2005 (Araneae; Trechaleidae) : quais os canais de sinalização reconhecidos pelas fêmeas no contexto pré-copulatório?
The Order Araneae is widely known for having a great variety both in terms of morphology and behavior, from which I highlight the genus Paratrechalea Carico, 2005, whose males construct a nuptial gift from a prey wrapped in silk that is offered to the female during courtship. Recent studies indicate that this gift-giving behavior in spiders represents a male

4. Health promotion of nursing workers: intervention for the use of gloves in venous puncture. / Promoção da saúde do trabalhador de enfermagem: intervenção para o uso de luvas na punção venosa
The peripheral venous puncture is an activity that exposes professionals who perform it to blood potential carrier of infections. This study aimed to validate the structured training in the health promotion model with a view to change the behavior of nursing workers in the use gloves in the peripheral venous puncture procedure. This is a descriptive and quas

5. Evaluation of sensibility, upper extremity motor function and functional performance in children with cerebral palsy / Avaliação da sensibilidade, função motora de membros superiores e desempenho funcional de crianças portadoras de paralisia cerebral
Children with cerebral palsy can show somatosensorial handicap in fine motor skills and, in additional with motor problems, they may influence the development of manual abilities and the capacity to execute living daily skills. The objective of this study was to evaluate sensibility, upper extremity skills and performance in self care of children with spasti

6. Tactile hallucinations: conceptual and historical aspects.
A brief historical analysis of the general concept of hallucination is presented and the suggestion is made that it emerged as the unwarranted generalisation of a perceptual model that was meant to apply only to vision and the "distance senses". Against this background the evolution of tactile hallucinations is considered and its interaction with 19th centur

7. Integration of auditory and vibrotactile stimuli: Effects of phase and stimulus-onset asynchrony
The perceptual integration of 250 Hz, 500 ms vibrotactile and auditory tones was studied in detection experiments as a function of (1) relative phase and (2) temporal asynchrony of the tone pulses. Vibrotactile stimuli were delivered through a single-channel vibrator to the left middle fingertip and auditory stimuli were presented diotically through headphon

8. Noninvasive somatosensory homunculus mapping in humans by using a large-array biomagnetometer.
To validate the feasibility of precise noninvasive functional mapping in humans, a large-array biomagnetometer was used to map the somatosensory cortical locations corresponding to numerous distinct tactile sites on the fingers, hand, arm, and face in different subjects. Source localizations were calculated by using a single equivalent current dipole (ECD) m

9. Oscillatory activity of single units in a somatosensory cortex of an awake monkey and their possible role in texture analysis.
Neuronal activity was extracellularly recorded in the cortex of an awake monkey (Macaca fascicularis). Single units displaying oscillatory firing patterns were found in the upper bank of the lateral sulcus in a region where most of the neurons responded to somatosensory stimuli. The spectral energies of the oscillating activity were distributed in a trimodal

10. The CNS role of Toll-like receptor 4 in innate neuroimmunity and painful neuropathy
Neuropathic pain remains a prevalent and persistent clinical problem because of our incomplete understanding of its pathogenesis. This study demonstrates for the first time, to our knowledge, a critical role for CNS innate immunity by means of microglial Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) in the induction phase of behavioral hypersensitivity in a mouse and rat mode

11. The Survival of Mutants at Very Low Frequencies in Tribolium Populations
Forty population cages, each with 499 adult T. castaneum of the wild-type UPF strain, received a bb female newly mated with UPF males. Half of the immigrants had a Chicago Black genetic background, the other half a UPF background. These conditions simulate, respectively, the fate of a rare, genetically differing immigrant or the fate of a mutation in populat
