1. Efeito de uma sessão de exercício resistido na sensibilidade cutânea em idosas hipertensas e normotensas fisicamente ativas
O estudo teve como objetivo analisar o efeito de uma sessão de exercícios resistidos na sensibilidade cutânea em idosas hipertensas e normotensas fisicamente ativas, bem como comparar a sensibilidade cutânea entre os dois grupos. Participaram deste estudo 32 mulheres (65,8 ± 5,1anos; 69,5 ± 13,7Kg; 1,60 ± 0,1m) fisicamente ativas, que foram classifica

2. A desconstrução do esquema gráfico aplicado ao ensino de desenho para crianças cegas
The current dissertation is inserted in drawings teaching studies in the non visuality scope and presents a proposal of procedures elaborated from a group of drawings done by standard kids. For that, it started from the presuppose that blind children build graphic schemes after an education and drawings elements exercises, it means, lines and basic geometric

Currently the term culture heritage goes far the original sense of material goods. It also has now a collective foundation and an untouchably substrate: the denominated immaterial or intangible cultural heritage, that includes the

4. Visuo-tactile cross-modal associations in cortical somatosensory cells
Recent studies show that cells in the somatosensory cortex are involved in the short-term retention of tactile information. In addition, some somatosensory cells appear to retain visual information that has been associated with the touch of an object. The presence of such cells suggests that nontactile stimuli associated with touch have access to cortical ne

5. Changes over a workshift in aesthesiometric and vibrotactile perception thresholds of workers exposed to intermittent hand transmitted vibration from impact wrenches.
OBJECTIVES: To investigate the changes over a workshift in fingertip tactile perception thresholds in users of impact wrenches exposed to intermittent hand transmitted vibration. A further aim was to assess the relation between acute changes in tactile sensation, sensorineural disorders, and vibration dose. METHODS: The study populations consisted of 30 work

6. Is ATP a central synaptic mediator for certain primary afferent fibers from mammalian skin?
The possibility that ATP acts as a synaptic mediator at the central terminals of primary afferent fibers was examined by applying it iontophoretically to neurons of the outer layers of the cat spinal cord in vivo. ATP proved to be selectively excitatory for a limited subset of spinal neurons. Those units consistently excited by ATP iontophoresis with very sm

7. The central projection of electrosensory information in the platypus.
1. This is the first detailed description of the projection to the cerebral cortex of afferent information coming from electroreceptors in the bill of the platypus, Ornithorhynchus anatinus. 2. In animals anaesthetized with chloralose, with the bill immersed in tap water, applying a potential difference between plate electrodes on either side of the bill pro
