This case study investigates the language policies and planning (LPP) implemented in Palau since the occupation by Japan before and during World War II, and by the United States of America under the United Nation's Trusteeship after the war. Palau is an island country in the Pacific with a population of 17,500, including 4,600 foreign-born citizens. The society is multilingual as a result of a 150-year occupation by other countries, including Japan and the United States, before its independence in 1994. In this study I also explore the effects of LPP during that time, including the policy regarding a standard writing system, practices at pedagogical institutions, and Palauans' opinions about languages, especially the two official languages, Palauan and English. Data were gathered through interviews, historical document study, observations of classes, and a questionnaire administered in Palau, by visiting the country more than 20 times, for one- to two-week stays beginning in 2001. Hornberger (2006) stated that the terms language policy and language planning have been used interchangeably or as a single concept in many previous studies. Her suggestion was to use the two terms as a set, as the relationship between them has been ambiguous in the past (p. 25). I agree with Hornberger that the two terms fundamentally form a single concept, and therefore, they are used as a set in this study. The theoretical framework proposed by Taylor (2002) is used to analyze the current LPP in Palau: that is, (1) language planning composed of (1.1) status planning, (1.2) corpus planning, and (1.3) acquisition planning; (2) language-in-education policy; and (3) aspects of language-in-education implementation program that consist of (3.1) curriculum policies, (3.2) personnel policies, (3.3) material policies (methods, content), (3.4) community policies, and (3.5) evaluation policies (p. 318). He stated, "[t]he process of devising a new national language policy" affects "language-in-education implementation programs" (p. 318). Major LPP studies were reviewed chronologically based on three phases suggested by Ricento (2000, pp. 10-22). It was helpful to consider the history of LPP "as a dynamic interplay between academic concerns... and political/bureaucratic interests" (Wee, 2011, p. 11). Also, some previous researchers have noted that localized studies of language goals, language use, and language change are needed. According to Kaplan and Baldauf (2003), who studied languages and language-in-education planning in the Pacific Basin, it is rare for Pacific Basin countries to have a language policy: "... [L]anguage planning is frequently undertaken by the education sector in the absence of any such higher-level policy or in the light of such a policy so vaguely articulated as to be quite incapable of implementation" (p. 6). Although their study provided a great deal of valuable information, they did not investigate the language policies of Palau. In this study I describe the government's policies, and real life situation of the policies. To describe the real life situation of the policies, interviews, and a questionnaire survey were used. I interviewed Palauans, such as those who had experienced the occupation(s) and postwar period to better understand the historical background of the current LPP. I also interviewed incumbent teachers after observing their classes. Most of them described various problems in teaching the compulsory Palauan Studies Course, on Palauan language, history, tradition, and culture. I also interviewed officials of the Ministry of Education, who provided a great deal of information about the educational system in Palau and the curriculum of the Palauan Studies Course. The 62-item questionnaire provided data concerning people's language use in various social contexts, as well as the effects of language policies and planning on people's opinions about languages. The 137 respondents were divided into five groups according to their year of birth, considering the years when important transitions had occurred in the LPP. Their responses were compared, and some of the respondents were interviewed to illuminate the questionnaire results. I interviewed eight Palauans in March and September 2012 and asked why they had selected certain responses to the questionnaire items. The questionnaire results indicated that there is a tendency for the younger generation to use English more than the older generations in various contexts, and that the efforts Palauans have made, such as making the new writing system a compulsory part of the school curriculum, have yielded positive effects on the opinions of the younger generation, who learned the Palauan writing system at school. Overall, the results showed that Palauan is not in danger of extinction at present, but it might lose its status as the primary language in the future. I suggest strategies for preserving Palauan as the primary language.

Full textAbstract:
Aspect splits can affect agreement, Case, and even preposition insertion. This paper discusses the functional ‘why’ and the theoretical ‘how’ of aspect splits. Aspect splits are an economical way to mark aspect by preserving or suppressing some independent element in one aspect. In formal terms, they are produced in the same way as coda conditions in phonology, with positional/contextual faithfulness.This approach captures the additive effects of cross-cutting splits. Aspect splits are analyzed here from Hindi, Nepali, Yucatec Maya, Chontal, and Palauan.

Full textAbstract:
The sanitary collection, transportation, treatment and disposal of human waste promotes health, improves the quality of the environment and thus, the quality of life in a community. Some poor communities in developing countries, rarely consider inadequate excreta disposal a problem. In absence of sanitation facilities, these communities rely on natural processes to dispose of their waste, wherein the practice of defecating in the open fields or on surface water is prevalent.In communities occupying coastal, waterfront and low-lying areas, human waste is directly disposed of into the surface water such as rivers, canals and sea or in the mudflat to await the tide. These surface waters, however, are often the communities' sources of food, and water for drinking, domestic and personal cleaning. Studies on sanitation show that contaminated water and human wastes are major factors in the transmission of serious diseases in the developing world.
This thesis aims to contribute to the process of selecting appropriate sanitation technologies for the low-income coastal and waterfront communities. The thesis analyzes sanitation and environmental conditions in the coastal communities of Puerto Princesa, Palawan Province, Philippines, to identify the important considerations for the provision of sanitation systems in these communities and hence, determine the feasible sanitation options.

Full textAbstract:
Ekoturism är ett användbart begrepp dock inte särskilt väldefinierat. Det finns många olika förklaringar om begreppet, från preciserat till koncist. Eftersom turistbranschen är en av världens största industrier är det därför viktigt att utveckla det på ett hållbart sätt som gynnar miljön, lokalbefolkningen och ekonomin. Syftet med studien var att undersöka i vilken utsträckning Palawan arbetar med ekoturism samt vilken uppfattning turisterna har om begreppet. Insamlingsmetoden baserads på kvalitativa samtalsintervjuer med en semistrukturerad ansats. Studien visade på att respondenterna inte hade några kunskaper om begreppet ekoturism och kan därför inte agera på ett hållbart vis. Anledningen till att samtliga respondenter inte hade någon kunskap om ekoturism berodde på kunskapsbrist, däremot hade det ett miljömedvetet beteende. Slutsatsen visar på att det finns ett glapp mellan kunskap och handling inom ekoturism. Att driva ekoturism anses vara mer krävande än vanlig turism av den orsaken att det behövs både mer kunskap men också för att det är en kostnadsfråga, vilket är anledningen till att många destinationer väljer att inte göra det. Lyckligtvis har ekoturism blivit allt mer populärt genom åren och människan är idag betydligt mer medvetna om dagens miljöproblem.Ecotourism is a useful concept, but not very well defined. As the tourism industry is one of the world's largest industries, it is therefore important to develop it in a sustainable way that benefits the environment, local people and the economy. The purpose with this thesis was to examine in what extent Palawan works with ecotourism and which perception the tourists has about the concept. The collection method was based at qualitative interviews. The thesis result showed that none of the respondents had any knowledge about the concept ecotourism and therefore can’t act in a sustainable manner. The reason why the respondents had no knowledge about the concept depended on lack of knowledge. The conclusion shows that there is a gap between knowledge and action within eco-tourism. Manage ecotourism is more demanding than regular tourism because of the needs for more knowledge, but also because it ́s a cost issue, which is why many destinations choose not to manage ecotourism. Fortunately, ecotourism has become increasingly popular over the years and man is today much more aware of today's environmental problems.

Full textAbstract:
Vertebrate craniofacial development and speciation has been studied in great detail, with major emphasis placed on mammalian species and highly derived archosaurs (birds). However, less is known about reptiles and in particular turtles. Turtles are speculated as to have retained many ancestral features of amniotes. Therefore, studying the Testudine (turtle) order not only helps to better understand amniote head development, but also the derivation of modern form. This thesis will investigate the formation of the hard palate in a representative turtle species, E. subglobosa, not only because of its evolutionary significance but also because this region is frequently affected in orofacial clefting. Origins of the palatine bones were first examined since other amniotes form these bones within outgrowths of the maxillary prominence, or the palatal shelves. Surprisingly no palatal shelves were found at the position or time when they should have been forming. Instead palatine bones condensed directly in the mesenchyme beneath the nasal cavity Furthermore there was no evidence from cell proliferation or apoptosis analysis of the maxillary prominences that vestigial shelves were ever present. The hypothesis following was that gene expression in the maxillary prominences might be different in turtles compared to the chicken or mouse in which shelves do form. I found no major differences but interestingly several of the genes I studied were also markers of the primitive stomodeum. Results show the turtle retains gene expression patterns of the chicken stomodeum, the primitive oral roof before palatal shelf formation, suggesting the turtle oral roof is still primitive in nature rather than advanced in other amniotes. This unfamiliar mechanism of hard palate development with no vestigial traits of palatal shelf formation supports arguments for a more basal placement of the turtle in the phylogenetic tree. Contrary to these findings, the similarity in gene expression and sequence to the chicken argues for a more derived placement closer to the archosaurs. While these present results do not allow for confident placement of the turtle as more basal or derived in the amniote tree, the data collected shows that ontological studies can help shed light on evolutionary debates.

Blackstone, J. C. "Knowledge and experience in the theology of Gregory Palamas." Thesis, University of Cambridge, 2011. http://ethos.bl.uk/OrderDetails.do?uin=uk.bl.ethos.596701.
Full textAbstract:
Discussion of the theological epistemology of Gregory Palamas has traditionally focused on his distinction between essence and uncreated energies. This thesis develops a new approach in focusing on the transformation of the human faculties. The thesis situates knowledge and experience within the Dionysian category of unions and distinctions. Analysis of Palamas’s use of the category of unions and distinctions covers different theological areas (linguistic, anthropological and aesthetic). In each of these areas there is evidence for a consistent patterning in which unions and distinctions are mutually constitutive at levels of increasing intensity. This anagogic patterning, which leads to union with God, as itself premised upon the incarnation of the Logos. Palamas frames the category of unions and distinctions in apophatic and iconic terms. His implicit notion of transcendent apophasis enables discussion of the unknowing, embodied character of unitive neotic prayer. His thinking on icon and image affirms this same embodied character as an outworking of his understanding of the manifestation of Christ’s divinity at the transfiguration. The thesis discovers a particular order and pattern in the transformation of human faculties. This transformation incorporates all human faculties and itself signifies the development of theological knowledge. Further, examination of the phenomenon of baptismal tears reveals how theological knowledge is sacramental and trinitarian. It follows from these findings that Palamas’s theology cannot be seen in terms of dichotomies of knowledge and experience (or of theology and spirituality; of apophasis and praxis; of abstraction and matter; of hesychasm and society). Rather, Palamas upholds a mode of integration of human faculties and human relations, and ultimately of union between human and divine, that transcends these dichotomies without negating either of their respective terms.

Richardson, Rose. "The critical role of p63 during palatal shelf fusion." Thesis, University of Manchester, 2015. http://ethos.bl.uk/OrderDetails.do?uin=uk.bl.ethos.634942.
Full textAbstract:
Cleft palate affects approximately 1 in 2000 live births resulting in considerable morbidity to affected individuals and their families. Evidence that the p63 gene is mutated in at least seven human developmental syndromes which are each characterised by varying extents of orofacial clefting, coupled to the severe facial dysmorphism displayed by the p63 mutant mouse, highlight the need to elucidate the role of the p63 during normal and aberrant palatogenesis. In mice, secondary palate development closely mirrors that occurring in humans; consequently, the mouse is a pre-eminent model organism for studying palatogenesis. In mice, the palatal shelves initiate from the maxillary processes and grow vertically, lateral to the tongue. The shelves re-orientate and make contact above the tongue. The medial edge epithelia (MEE) of the apposed palatal shelves adhere to form a midline epithelial seam (MES). Subsequent degeneration of the MES allows mesenchymal confluence across the palate, at which point palatogenesis is considered complete. The mechanisms underlying degeneration of the MES remain contentious; however, in vivo studies suggest that cessation of proliferation, induction of apoptosis and periderm migration are essential to ensure removal of the midline seam. The data presented in this thesis uncover a key role for p63 in controlling these aspects of cell behaviour during palatal shelf fusion. Tgfb3-/- mice exhibit cleft palate with maintained expression of p63 in the MEE. This thesis reveals that epistatically lowering the dosage of p63 in Tgfb3-/- mice rescues this fusion defect, facilitating periderm cell migration out of the MEE and subsequent MES degradation. Recent research suggests that p63 orchestrates a cell adhesion network in the palate. In this context, this thesis suggests the importance of p63 down-regulation in the MES in compromising adhesion at the basal-periderm border, thereby allowing periderm cell migration out from the midline and subsequent MES degradation. To test the hypothesis that down-regulation of p63 is essential for palatal fusion, tetracycline-inducible transgenic animals in which ΔNp63α is targeted to the MEE of the developing palate have been engineered. ΔNp63α bi-transgenic mice presented with cleft palate in which the MES failed to degenerate. An observed lack of apoptotic activity in the MEE of ΔNp63α bi-transgenic mice suggested a role for p63-mediated apoptosis during MES degradation. Gene ontology analysis of a complete range of ΔNp63α transcriptional targets which have been identified in the secondary palate by ChIP-seq, lent support to this hypothesis. The data indicate that p63 down-regulation in the MES is essential to ensure complete removal of the MES and implicate p63 as a key regulator of apoptosis during this process; thereby building on work which suggests that cell death is the major fate of the MEE. In addition to dissecting a pathway of fundamental importance in secondary palate development, this research provides insights into ectodermal development more generally and has wider significance for the study of many congenital malformations.

This dissertation aims at analyzing the lateral palatal segment in the paraibano dialect of Brazilian Portuguese and its variants (palatal [λ], alveolar [l], glide [j] and deletion [Ø]), under the theoretical-methodological model of the Variation Theory proposed by William Labov (1966, 1972), describing the structural and social constraints underneath. The synchronic corpus was produced from 36 individuals of the speech community of Jacaraú (Paraíba) and is socially stratified according to sex, age and years of schooling. Linguistic and extra-linguistic variables which were likely to influence the variation were taken into consideration. This study also intends to analyze the behavior of that variation in texts from the 18th century, and to present the arboreal representations of the lateral segment according to the Geometry of Phonological Features (CLEMENTS & HUME, 1995). The software Goldvarb X (SANKOFF, TAGLIAMONTE & SMITH, 2005), a variable rule program used as a tool for the quantitative data, selected sex (feminine), age (15 to 25), years of schooling (1 to 8), following phonological context (labial vowel), preceding phonological context (coronal vowel) and number of syllables (trisyllabic) as the most relevant variables in the variation of the lateral palatal segment in the speech community of Jacaraú (Paraíba).
Esta dissertação é um estudo da lateral palatal e suas realizações no dialeto paraibano (a palatal [λ], a alveolar [l], a semivogal [j] e o zero fonético [Ø]), sob o modelo teórico-metodológico da Teoria da Variação proposto por William Labov (1966, 1972), visando a descrever os fatores estruturais e sociais sobre o seu uso. O corpus sincrônico aqui utilizado é o dialeto paraibano falado por 36 indivíduos da cidade de Jacaraú (Paraíba) e está estratificado socialmente com relação ao sexo, a faixa etária e anos de escolarização. São analisadas variáveis linguísticas e extralinguísticas que podem exercer influência na variação em estudo. Também se pretendeu analisar o comportamento dessa variável em textos do século XVIII e apresentar as representações arbóreas das variantes segundo a Geometria dos Traços (CLEMENTS & HUME, 1995). O Programa Goldvarb X, utilizado para produção dos índices estatísticos e probabilísticos, selecionou as variáveis sexo (feminino), idade (15 a 25 anos), escolaridade (1 a 8 anos), contexto fonológico seguinte (vogal labial), contexto fonológico precedente (vogal coronal) e número de sílabas do vocábulo (trissílabos) como as mais relevantes no processo de variação da lateral palatal na fala jacarauense.

The main purpose of this academic work is to demonstrate the dynamic and social aspect of language, according as that speakers uses various forms of the nasal consonant palatal segment, the /ɲ/, depending on the linguistic and extralinguistic factors that they are submitted. The specific purposes are: identify the linguistic and extralinguistic conditions that may influence the variation of the nasal palatal /ɲ/; observe the variable accomplishment of the palatal nasal consonant as a variable null [ø] or the maintenance of the phoneme [ɲ], and reveal if the palatal nasal undergoes a process of a stable variation or language change process. This research corpus was taken from VALPB Project (HORA; PEDROSA, 2001), that has 34 informants, so we could verify is the speakers of Portuguese in a community of João Pessoa vary or not the palatal nasal. For this, we verified the variables tonicity word, following phonological context, precedent phonological context, number of syllables, grammatical category and sex as the most relevant for the deletion of palatal nasal in words. Our results shows that when the words has the palatal nasal consonant as a variable null, in the process of variation, the nasality of /ɲ/ remains, standing in the preceding vowel. Besides that, we verified the relevance of precedent phonological context, especially when it was the phoneme [i], because when the palatal nasal is deleted, the [i] keeps the distinctive feature coronal of [ɲ]. Our phenomenon is in a stable variation, given that the same speaker uses both a term with the maintenance of sound, as used with the deletion, at different times.
Este trabalho tem como objetivo geral demonstrar o caráter dinâmico e social da língua, na medida em que falantes usam formas variadas do segmento consonantal nasal palatal, o /ɲ/, a depender dos fatores linguísticos e extralinguísticos a que são submetidos. Os objetivos específicos são: identificar quais as condições linguísticas e extralinguísticas que podem influenciar na variação da nasal palatal /ɲ/, observar a realização da consoante nasal palatal em sua realização variável como apagamento [ø] ou manutenção do fonema [ɲ], e destacar se a consoante nasal palatal passa por um processo de variação estável ou um processo de mudança linguística. O corpus desta pesquisa foi retirado do Projeto VALPB (HORA; PEDROSA, 2001), com 34 informantes, para que pudéssemos verificar se os usuários da língua portuguesa da comunidade de João Pessoa variam ou não a nasal palatal. Para isso, verificamos as variáveis tonicidade, contexto fonológico seguinte, contexto fonológico precedente, número de sílabas, categoria gramatical e sexo como as mais relevantes para o apagamento da nasal palatal nos vocábulos. Nossos resultados demonstraram que quando a consoante nasal palatal não é produzida pelos falantes, a nasalidade de /ɲ/ permanece, ao se espraiar para a vogal precedente. Além disso, foi observada a relevância do contexto fonológico precedente, mais precisamente do segmento vocálico [i] que aparece como um forte elemento condicionador de variação, pois quando a nasal palatal é apagada, o [i] mantém o traço distintivo de coronalidade de [ɲ]. O nosso fenômeno constitui uma variação estável, tendo em vista que um mesmo falante tanto usa um vocábulo com a manutenção do fonema, quanto usa com o apagamento, em momentos distintos.

Full textAbstract:
The aim of this study was to determine if a buccal curvature in the palatal roots of maxillary molars affected the clinician’s ability to accurately determine working length. Twenty-seven extracted, human maxillary molars were sorted by palatal root curvatures as J- and C-type and the angle of curvature was determined. Straight-line access was made and a #20 file was placed into the canal until the tip was visible at the apical foramen then withdrawn. The file, tooth and calibration wire were radiographed on one image using the RVG. Actual (file) and radiographic (tooth) lengths were determined using the RVG ruler. Radiographic length appeared shorter on average than the actual length. Canal curvatures larger than 25 degrees had differences greater than 0.5mm. This represents a statistically significant difference between the actual and radiographic lengths as the degree of curvature increases. There was no significant difference between the J- and C- types.

Full textAbstract:
Introduction: Skeletal expansion has been a treatment modality in orthodontics and orthopedics to correct skeletal transverse discrepancies with maxillary constriction. The utilization of microimplants in conjunction with these palatal expanders offers a higher degree of pure skeletal expansion and minimizes the dental side effects. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the changes of the hard and soft tissues of the face after skeletal expansion for orthodontics. Methods: 36 patients who had received successful expansion with a microimplant assisted rapid palatal expander were compared to their pre-expansion records. All patients received CBCTs from which a 3-D analysis configuration was created to trace hard and soft tissue landmarks of the midface and nasal cavity regions. 3 judges analyzed each set of records and the average was used to calculate the amount of expansion experienced at each anatomical region. A paired T-test and Wilcoxon signed-rank test were used for statistical comparison between time points. Results: Expansion can affect all of the midfacial hard tissues that support the overlying soft tissues. Increases in skeletal width from the Frontozygomatic suture down to the maxillary alveolar bone were all significant. The nasal cavity increased in width in all locations measured. Soft tissue changes were significant at the base of the ala suggesting a widening of the nose with expansion therapy. Conclusion: Maxillary expansion with microimplant assisted expanders can have skeletal changes throughout the entire midface and may affect the width of the nasal cavity. Soft tissue changes were less pronounced, and though a widening of the base of the nose may be expected this may not be noticed by the patient.

L'approche de modélisation d'accompagnement (ComMod) a été élaborée par un groupe de scientifiques impliqués dans la recherche et de développement pour l'environnement et la gestion des ressources naturelles renouvelables. Ils ont été confrontés à des enjeux similaires sur divers terrains auxquels ils ont apportés des réponses théoriques et pragmatiques. Aujourd’hui, l'utilisation croissante de ComMod s’opère dans des conditions de terrain de plus en plus diversifiées. A Palawan, aux Philippines, un modèle de simulation multi-agent (SMA) a été développé en utilisant l'approche ComMod comme l'une des composantes d'un projet de recherche et de développement (R&D). Cette imbrication représentait une nouvelle configuration de mise en œuvre d’une approche ComMod, et représentait un défi pour l’analyse des impacts de ComMod sur le terrain vis-à-vis d’un projet R&D. Le cadre d’Institutional Analysis and Development (IAD) s'est avéré essentiel pour relever ce défi. S'appuyant sur les leçons de l'expérience ComMod Palawan, cette recherche synthétise l'articulation entre ComMod, IAD et SMA et a aboutit au développement d’un cadre pour la mise en œuvre de ComMod et de l’analyse institutionnelle (CIAF). Avec le CIAF, les processus ComMod et leurs résultats sont organisés, gérés et analysés par des chercheurs de différentes disciplines, ainsi que par les autres participants aux processus. L’usage du CIAF est par ailleurs adapté à l’analyse de configuration ComMod-projet R&D, laissant entrevoir de nouvelles opportunités de mise en œuvre de ComMod. Le CIAF propose enfin différentes étapes pour intégrer le suivi et l'évaluation participatifs dans des processus ComModThe Companion Modelling (ComMod) approach was developed by a group of scientists involved in research and development for environment and renewable natural resources management. These scientists were involved in field situations with real stakes and were faced with addressing theoretical and pragmatic questions in the course of their research. Since its inception, the use of ComMod had been rapidly increasing, and it is constantly subjected to new field conditions and contexts. In Palawan, Philippines, a multi-agent systems (MAS) model was developed using the ComMod approach, wherein ComMod was implemented as one of the components of a research and development (R&D) project; a new configuration for ComMod implementation at that time. Emerging from this configuration was a challenge to analyze the impact of ComMod in the field vis-à-vis the R&D project. The Institutional Analysis and Development (IAD) framework proved to be instrumental in addressing this challenge. Drawing upon the lessons of the Palawan ComMod experience, this research synthesizes the articulation among ComMod, IAD and MAS – the ComMod Implementation and Institutional Analysis Framework (CIAF). With CIAF, ComMod processes and its results can be organized, managed and analyzed by researchers of different disciplines, as well as stakeholders, using a common language. CIAF extends to the analysis of a ComMod-R&D project configuration, a prospect for future ComMod implementations. The CIAF also proposes steps that integrate participatory monitoring and evaluation of a ComMod process within itself, thereby allowing the monitoring and evaluation sub-process to evolve and adapt with the ComMod process

This work tells about the realization process of an investigation that relates two worlds that attract and entice me: visual culture and alimentation. The goal was to research how students of the Technical Course on Service for Alimentation, a Youth and Adult Education Modality at the Federal Institute of Education, Science and Technology of Goiás relate and create associations between visualities and alimentation. Of qualitative nature, this investigation involved semi structured interviews using images requested to a group of six collaborators. Based on these images and on the themes raised in the interviews, I conducted a focus group attended by five collaborators. The interviews and the focal group brought to light stories and memories suggested and alluded by the images connecting the research collaborators with their experiences and feeding practices. Besides these issues the study provides reflections on feelings of joy, happiness, and pleasure associated with eating.
Este trabalho narra o processo de realização de uma investigação que relaciona dois universos que me atraem e instigam: cultura visual e alimentação. O objetivo foi pesquisar como alunos do curso Técnico em Cozinha do Programa Nacional de Integração da Educação Profissional com a Educação Básica na Modalidade de Educação de Jovens e Adultos (PROEJA), do Instituto Federal de Educação, Ciência e Tecnologia de Goiás (IFG/GO) se conectam e criam associações entre visualidades e alimentação. De cunho qualitativo, a pesquisa envolveu entrevistas semiestruturadas a partir de imagens solicitadas ao grupo de seis participantes. Com base nessas imagens e nos temas levantados nas entrevistas, realizei um grupo focal no qual participaram cinco pessoas. As entrevistas e o grupo focal trouxeram à tona histórias e memórias sugeridas e insinuadas pelas imagens aproximando os integrantes da investigação de suas vivências e práticas alimentares. As falas apontam algumas contradições que envolvem visualidade e alimentação, como noções de privação e fartura, afetos e questões sociais que ressaltam o modo como os alimentos ajudam a constituir ligações locais e familiares. Além desses temas, o estudo reflete, também, sobre as sensações de alegria, felicidade e prazer associadas ao comer.

Resumo: A percepção do paladar ocorre por uma sensação química relacionada aos botões gustativos. As alterações deste sentido podem estar associadas a uma série de fatores, incluindo a infecção pelo HIV. O objetivo deste estudo observacional do tipo caso-controle foi avaliar a percepção do paladar em pacientes infectados pelo HIV. Cem indivíduos do sexo masculino e feminino (1160 anos de idade) foram divididos em dois grupos (50 pacientes infectados Pelo HIV e 50 controles) e avaliados quanto à sua função gustativa pela técnica das "tiras de sabor" em relação aos quatros sabores básicos. Os resultados revelaram que a média de acertos na avaliação do paladar foi significativamente menor nos indivíduos com infecção pelo HIV em relação aos controles para ambos os lados da língua (p<0,05). Os pacientes com infecção pelo HIV tiveram dificuldade em reconhecer o sabor amargo, seguido pelo salgado e doce. Não houve dificuldade na identificação do sabor azedo. Quando cada lado da língua foi avaliado isoladamente e comparado, o teste de Wilcoxon revelou que não existia diferença significativa na língua dos indivíduos com HIV (p=0,261). A prevalência de hipogeusia foi de 20% nos indivíduos com esta doença. A maioria destes indivíduos era do sexo masculino, com idade média de 37,3 anos, de cor branca, solteiro e que faziam uso de diversos medicamentos, especialmente, antimicrobianos, antirretrovirais, analgésicos, antidepressivos e antieméticos. Baseado nesses achados pode-se concluir que indivíduos com infecção pelo HIV podem apresentar um déficit no paladar que pode repercutir na sua saúde geral e bucal.

Abstract: The perception of taste occurs by a chemical sensation related to the taste buds. Changes in this sense may be associated with a number of factors, including HIV infection. The aim of this study observational case-control was to evaluate the perception of taste in HIV-infected patients. One hundred male and female (11-60 years old) were divided into two groups (50 patients infected by HIV and 50 controls) and evaluated for gustatory function by the "taste strips" technique for four basic flavors. The results revealed that the mean score in the evaluation of taste was significantly lower in individuals with HIV when compared to controls for both sides of the tongue (P <0.05). Patients with HIV infection had difficulty recognizing the bitter taste, followed by salty and sweet. There was no difficulty in identifying the sour taste. When each side of the tongue was evaluated separately and compared, the Wilcoxon test showed that there was no significant difference on the tongue of individuals with HIV / AIDS (P = 0.261). The prevalence of hypogeusia was 20% in individuals with this disease. Most of these individuals were male, mean age 37.3 years old, white, single, and who made use of many drugs, especially, antibiotics, antiretroviral drugs, analgesics, antidepressants and antiemetics. Based on these findings it can be concluded that individuals with HIV infection may have a deficit in taste that can affect your general and oral health.

RESUMEN:
En la luz de la Teoría de la Variación Lingüística, analizamos el proceso de variación en el lateral palatal en hablantes alagoanos, cuyas variantes son el lateral palatal (o lateral alveolar palatalizado), la despalatalización y la semivocalización, como en los ejemplos: [moʎʊ] ~ [molʎʊ] ] [[Molʊ] ~ [moju] (para la salsa) y [muʎɛ] ~ [mulʲɛ] ~ [mulɛ] ~ [mujɛ] (para mujer), entre otros. Este estudio forma parte del proyecto de investigación "Cambio Lingüístico en portugués Alagoas - Portal". El objetivo del trabajo es identificar y analizar los factores lingüísticos y sociales que influencian en los procesos de despalatalización y seminvocalización en hablantes alagoanos. Se constituyó un corpus de 2.615 observaciones (de las cuales el 19% corresponde a la despalatalización y el 16% corresponde a la semivocalización), recogidos por medio de entrevistas realizadas con 144 informantes en 6 ciudades alagoanas. Todos los datos pasaron por análisis acústico para identificación de las variantes. Las variables lingüísticas consideradas fueron los contextos anterior y siguiente, la tonicidad, el tamaño de la palabra y la frecuencia. Las variables sociales consideradas fueron el sexo / género, la ciudad, la edad y la escolaridad. Como variables de nivel más agregado, se analizaron el individuo y el elemento léxico. Para el análisis estadístico se utilizaron métodos de regresión multinivel con la ayuda del software R. Concluimos que la semivocalización no sufre interferencia de ninguna variable lingüística, pero es favorecida por ítems lexicales de frecuencia más alta y que la despalatalización no sufre interferencia de la frecuencia, pero es favorecida, principalmente, por el contexto siguiente compuesto por vocales coronales, lo que caracteriza el proceso como fonológicamente condicionado. En el análisis de las variables agregadas ítem léxico e individual, concluimos la variación entre la semivocalización es muy influenciada por los individuos y por los ítems lexicales; a diferencia de la despalatalización, que parece ser un proceso lingüístico y social más generalizado, alcanzando de forma más general los elementos léxicos y los individuos. La despalatalización puede ser caracterizada como un proceso de variación diatópica en Alagoas, siendo favorecida en la ciudad de Delmiro Gouveia. La semivocalización, por otro lado, ocurre de forma más uniforme en los diferentes hablantes y no presentó realización diferenciada entre las ciudades investigadas en este estudio. En relación a la variable escolaridad, concluimos que ejerce gran influencia la semivocalización, pero pequeña influencia sobre la despalatalización. Sobre la variable sexo/género, los resultados son poco concluyentes para la despalatalización y apuntan favorecimiento del sexo/género masculino en la semivocalización. En el análisis de la variable grupo de edad, concluimos que la despalatalización es un proceso de variación estable y que la semivocalización se trata de un proceso de cambio lingüístico en progreso, con tendencia a la desaparición de la variante semivocalizada.Sob a luz da Teoria da Variação Linguística, analisamos o processo de variação na lateral palatal em falares alagoanos, cujas variantes são a lateral palatal (ou lateral alveolar palatalizada), a despalatalização e a semivocalização, como nos exemplos: [ˈmoʎʊ] ~ [ˈmolʲʊ] ~ [ˈmolʊ] ~ [ˈmoju] (para molho) e [muˈʎɛ] ~ [muˈlʲɛ] ~ [muˈlɛ] ~ [muˈjɛ] (para mulher), entre outros.

Full textAbstract:
Whole metagenome shotgun sequencing is a powerful approach for assaying many aspects of microbial communities, including the functional and symbiotic potential of each contributing community member. The research community currently lacks tools that efficiently align DNA reads against protein references, the technique necessary for constructing functional profiles. This thesis details the creation of PALADIN—a novel modification of the Burrows-Wheeler Aligner that provides orders-of-magnitude improved efficiency by directly mapping in protein space. In addition to performance considerations, utilizing PALADIN and associated tools as the foundation of metagenomic pipelines also allows for novel characterization and downstream analysis.
The accuracy and efficiency of PALADIN were compared against existing applications that employ nucleotide or protein alignment algorithms. Using both simulated and empirically obtained reads, PALADIN consistently outperformed all compared alignment tools across a variety of metrics, mapping reads nearly 8,000 times faster than the widely utilized protein aligner, BLAST. A variety of analysis techniques were demonstrated using this data, including detecting horizontal gene transfer, performing taxonomic grouping, and generating declustered references.

Full textAbstract:
Angiogenesis, the formation of new blood vessels from a pre-existing vasculature, is crucial during development and for many diseases including cancer. Despite tremendous progress in the understanding of the angiogenic process, many aspects are still not fully elucidated. Several attempts have been made to identify novel genes involved in endothelial cell biology and angiogenesis. Here we focused on Pald1, a recently identified, vascular-enriched gene encoding paladin. Our in vitro studies indicate that paladin is a lipid phosphatase catalyzing dephosphorylation of phosphatidylinositol phosphates, a process essential for endocytosis and intracellular vesicle trafficking. We confirmed paladin’s vascular expression pattern and revealed a shift from a broad endothelial cell expression during development to an arterial mural cell-restricted expression in several vascular beds in adult mice. Paladin expression in the lung, however, was not restricted to the vasculature, but was also observed in pneumocytes and myofibroblasts. Lungs of female, but not male, Pald1 null mice displayed an obstructive lung phenotype with increased alveolar air sacs that were already apparent early in the alveolarization process. Only endothelial cells, but not other main lung cell types, were affected by loss of paladin. Endothelial cell number was reduced in 4-week old mice, possibly due to increased endothelial turnover in Pald1 deficient lungs. Vascular defects were also found in the retina. Loss of paladin led to reduced retinal vascular outgrowth accompanied by a hyperdense and hypersprouting vascular front. Downstream signaling of the major angiogenic driver, vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2 (VEGFR2) was sustained in Pald1 null mice, and VEGFR2 degradation was impaired. Furthermore, paladin inhibited endothelial cell junction stability and loss of paladin led to reduced vascular permeability. Whether the differences in VEGFR2 signaling and adherens junction stability are connected remains to be fully explored. The newly identified lipid phosphatase activity of paladin and its specific effects on VEGFR2 signaling and adherens junction stability indicate that paladin may be controlling the endocytic pathway.

Full textAbstract:
Scar formation is a frequent consequence of wound healing and has widespread negative effects on individuals’ quality of life, both physically and psychologically. For most people, scars are unsightly, but in addition to this, they can result in serious morbidities such as pruritus, pain, contracture, and decreased heat tolerance in severe situations. The association between degree of scarring and depth of dermal injury has been recognized by surgeons for many years, however the cellular and molecular basis for these observations remains poorly understood. Interestingly, oral wounds have been shown to heal faster and with less clinical and histological scar formation than similar skin wounds. It was hypothesized that palatal wounds in general show relatively little scarring and also that there is increased scar formation of the palatal mucosa following a connective tissue graft (CTG) harvest (deep wound) than a free gingival graft (FGG) harvest (superficial wound). This was a retrospective clinical study carried out at the University of British Columbia, Faculty of Dentistry. Intraoral photographs were taken of the palate in 37 subjects. Each subject had undergone a CTG and/or FGG harvest by a Graduate Periodontics resident more than six months prior to the study. 23 FGG and 23 CTG scars were assessed. Two independent calibrated blinded examiners assessed the photographs using a modified version of the Manchester Scar Proforma. A value of zero, one, or two was given for each parameter, with no difference from normal tissue scored as zero and gross mismatch scored as two. The values for each parameter were summed to produce a total scar score, zero to six, for each site. The component parameters were also examined individually so that color, contour, and distortion could be evaluated independently. The results of this study demonstrated that scar formation in the palatal mucosa is minimal and in many cases, non-existent. CTG donor sites did not have more severe scar formation than FGG sites.

Fundação de Amparo a Pesquisa no Estado do Rio Grande do SulThe focus of this work is the teaching of chemistry through the theme "Aromas". To this end, we seek to develop this research teaching methodologies related to the theme and that promote learning of the contents of Chemistry, contributing thus in the formation of more critical and active citizens in their daily lives. Interventions of this project were conducted with students from classes 3rd grade from a state college in the city of São Sepé - RS - Brazil. The data from this study were collected through questionnaires, exercises, preparation of reports and notes made by the teacher researcher, during the intervention, and analyzed according to discursive textual analysis. Closed interventions, observation and notes from the search elements were extracted for the construction of a teaching guide for the teaching and learning of physiological functions in high school. Thus, by the results obtained in this study, we conclude that the teaching of chemistry was favored with the theme "aromas" as well as by the use of thematic workshop methodology and problem solving. Students found through these two methodologies, more affordable and practical ways to understand and relate the contents of the Chemical phenomena that happen in their daily lives.
O foco deste trabalho é o ensino de Química por meio da temática Aromas . Para tanto, buscamos desenvolver nesta pesquisa metodologias de ensino ligadas ao tema e que promovessem a aprendizagem dos conteúdos de Química, colaborando dessa forma, na formação de cidadãos mais críticos e atuantes no seu cotidiano. As intervenções desse projeto foram realizadas com estudantes de turmas da 3ª série de um colégio estadual na cidade de São Sepé/RS Brasil. Os dados desta pesquisa foram coletados através de questionários, exercícios, elaboração de relatórios e anotações feitas pelo professor pesquisador, durante a realização das intervenções, e analisados de acordo com análise textual discursiva. Encerradas as intervenções, da observação e anotações do pesquisador foram extraídos elementos para a construção de um guia didático para o ensino e aprendizagem de funções orgânicas no Ensino Médio. Assim, através dos resultados obtidos nessa pesquisa, concluímos que o ensino de Química foi favorecido com a temática Aromas , bem como, pelo uso da metodologia de oficina temática e da resolução de problemas.

Full textAbstract:
Tämän tutkimuksen tarkoituksena on selvittää mitä opettajat kokevat työhyvinvoinnin olevan ja kuinka samanaikaisopettajuus vaikuttaa työhyvinvoinnin kokemuksiin. Tutkimus tarkastelee myös opettajan työn kuormittavuuteen vaikuttavia asioita. Samanaikaisopetus on työmuotona tullut perinteisen opetuksen rinnalle. Samanaikaisopettajat työskentelevät tiiviissä yhteistyössä, jakaen työn suunnittelusta arviointiin. Työhyvinvointi on osa ihmisen kokonaisvaltaista hyvinvointia ja sen merkitys niin taloudellisesti, kuin henkilökohtaiseen elämään on suuri. Samanaikaisopetuksella voidaan tukea työhyvinvointia. Tutkimus on luonteeltaan laadullinen työ ja suoritettiin fenomenologisena tutkimuksena. Tutkimuksen aineistona oli samanaikaisopettajien kokemukset, jotka kerättiin avoimia kysymyksiä sisältävillä lomakkeilla sekä kahden opettajan osalta lomakkeeseen pohjautuvalla teemahaastattelulla.
Tutkimustulosten mukaan työhyvinvoinnin kokemukseen vaikuttavat erityisesti työyhteisöltä saatu tuki ja kannustus sekä asioiden jakamisen mahdollisuus. Samanaikaisopettajuus koettiin työhyvinvointia vahvistavana ja tukevana työmuotona. Työmuoto antoin läheisen työparin, jonka kautta työn kaikki osa-alueet oli mahdollista jakaa. Asioiden jakamisen mahdollisuus oli tärkein työhyvinvointia tukeva tekijä tässä tutkimuksessa. Opettajat kokivat työssään kuormittavana haastavat oppilaat ja huoltajat. Myös suuret ryhmäkoot ja inkluusion tuoma heterogeenisyys koettiin ajoittain rasittavan opettajan työtä. Samanaikaisopettajuus ei poistanut näitä ongelmia, mutta asioiden jakamisen kautta opettajat kokivat saavansa henkistä tukea ja näin työn kuormittavuuden kokemukset vähenivät. Tulokset tukevat yleistä käsitystä yhteistyön ja työnjakamisen merkityksestä työhyvinvoinnille.
Tutkimus on ajankohtainen. Uusi opetussuunnitelma kannustaa opettajia yhteistoiminnallisuuteen ja opettajan työ on muuttumassa yksintyöskentelystä yhdessä työskentelyyn. Tutkimus on merkittävä sen vuoksi, että samanaikaisopettajuuden ja työhyvinvoinnin välisestä yhteydestä ei ole tehty paljon aiempia tutkimuksia.

Resumo: Um teste de diferença aplicado no laboratório difere em várias maneiras de uma discriminação entre alimentos na "vida real". Uma dessas maneiras é o intervalo de tempo entre os dois estímulos sendo discriminados. Para investigar isso, o teste de diferença livre de tendência de resposta, Igual-Diferente, foi aplicado usando uma bebida cítrica como meio. Os intervalos de tempo estudados foram de zero, 30 segundos, 60 segundos, 5 minutos, 1 hora e 24 horas. Para provadores não familiarizados com os estímulos, a performance deteriorou conforme o tempo aumentou. Para provadores familiarizados com os estímulos, o intervalo zero rendeu a melhor performance (maior índice R), mas o seu declínio não foi significativo até o período de uma hora. Os resultados foram explicados pela hipótese do uso de diferentes tipos de memória sendo utilizados para comparação do estímulo padrão com o estímulo comparação. Um outro aspecto da discriminação envolve o reconhecimento de um estímulo testado previamente. Assim, foi realizado um estudo paralelo para investigar os efeitos de familiaridade, grau de gostar e codabilidade (número de palavras usadas para descrever algo) sobre o reconhecimento do sabor de bebidas comerciais. Os efeitos de familiaridade, grau de gostar e codabilidade, não foram significativos, porém encontrou-se uma tendência para os estímulos mais familiares e de maior codabilidade serem mais reconhecidos (maior índice R). Os resultados também indicaram que a imagem do produto, tanto quanto seu sabor, afeta a sua classificação na escala de grau de gostar.
Abstract: There are many ways in which a laboratory difference test differs from 'real life' discrimination of foods. One of these is the interval of time between tasting the two stimuli to be discriminated. To investigate this, judges performed the response-bias free same-different discrimination tests using a citrus flavored beverages as a medium. The time interval between tasting the standard and comparison stimuli was varied. Time intervals of zero, 30 secs, 60 secs, 5 min, 1 hour and 1 day were examined. For judges unfamiliar with the stimuli, performance deteriorated as the time interval increased. For judges familiar with the stimuli, the zero time interval elicited best performance (higher R index), but the decline was arrested for periods up to 1 hour. The results were explained by hypothesizing different types of memory trace for the standard stimulus being utilized for comparison with the comparison stimulus. A further aspect of discrimination involves recognition of a previously tasted stimuli. So a parallel study was initiated to investigate the effects of familiarity, liking and codability in the recognition process of commercial beverage flavors. The effects of familiarity, liking and codability were not significant, however, there was a tendency for more familiar and with higher codability stimuli being better recognized (higher R index). The results also indicated that the image of the product as well as it flavor affects how much that product is rated for liking.

Full textAbstract:
La grotte de Tabon (Palawan, Philippines) est un site préhistorique majeur en Asie du Sud-Est. Elle a livré des fossiles d’Homo sapiens datant du Pléistocène supérieur, rares dans la région. Pourtant, son histoire demeure mal connue : d’importantes altérations physiques et chimiques compliquent la lecture de sa stratigraphie, tandis que des objets archéologiques sans contexte clair entravent l’élaboration d’une chronologie fiable. Cette étude jette un nouveau regard sur la grotte de Tabon à travers une approche pluridisciplinaire des sciences de la Terre. Elle explore notamment l’environnement et le climat des premiers hommes anatomiquement modernes dans la région. Les résultats mettent en lumière une période clef entre 40 et 33 ka BP, caractérisée par des climats plus secs, des paysages plus ouverts et une empreinte humaine marquée dans la grotte. Cette période a également été ponctuée par un court épisode d’humidité qui a laissé un spéléothème gypsifère étendu en guise de témoin. Dans l’avenir, de nouvelles approches, prenant en compte les contraintes particulières du site, pourraient permettre de souligner davantage la valeur scientifique et patrimoniale unique de la grotte de Tabon, une fenêtre sur les premiers périples de notre espèce à travers les archipels d’Asie du Sud-EstTabon Cave (Palawan, Philippines) is a key prehistoric site in Southeast Asia, one of the few to have yielded Homo sapiens fossils from the Late Pleistocene. Its history remains poorly understood: heavy physical and chemical alterations have greatly complicated its stratigraphy, and contextually isolated archaeological finds hamper the construction of a clear chronology. This study reexamines Tabon Cave using a multi-pronged geosciences approach to explore environment, climate, and early modern human presence in the region. The results reveal a major period in the cave’s history between 40 and 33 ka BP, when drier climates, more open landscapes, and active human use of the cave were briefly spaced by a wet episode that left an extensive, gypsiferous speleothem. Future innovative research approaches spurred by the unique constraints of the site will undoubtedly further highlight the unique scientific and heritage value of Tabon Cave, a window into the earliest odysseys of our species across the archipelagos of Southeast Asia

Full textAbstract:
This research employs a modern analogue approach to examine relationships between pollen, vegetation change, and land use in the tropical environments of Island Southeast Asia over the past ~5000 years. Interpretation of fossil pollen data relies upon uniformitarian principles. Few modern pollen- vegetation studies from the region exist, and those that do have focused on climatic or ecological aims. Main contributions of this study are: the collection and analysis of modern botanical data and pollen assemblages from various human-modified and ‘natural’ vegetation types; and the comparison of this modern dataset with fossil pollen sequences in order to test hypotheses relating to signatures of past land use. Some fossil assemblages showed statistical similarity with those from modern ‘cultured’ landscapes, whilst others aligned more closely with those from natural vegetation. Cores from the northern Kelabit Highlands of Sarawak, Malaysian Borneo, contain assemblages from 1700 cal BP onwards that are similar to those produced by modern arboriculture; a core from the southern Highlands contains fossil assemblages as old as 2000 cal BP that align with those from modern wet rice paddies. These ages coincide with the earliest archaeological dates from nearby sites. Earlier vegetation changes appear to relate to edaphic development and climatic fluctuations. In northern Palawan, western Philippines, the first fossil pollen sequence from the island records post-5000 cal BP marine regression, hydrological fluctuations that are likely related to ENSO cyclicities, and persistence of open landscapes with minor evidence of closed forest after 2750 cal BP. This contrasts with existing proxy data that imply increasingly closed forest through the Holocene. In a region where direct archaeobotanical evidence is sparse, and little modern pollen- vegetation work has been done, this research contributes to clarifying modes and timings of changes in subsistence-related disturbance, as well as bolstering recent interpretations from other palaeoclimatic proxies for ENSO intensification from ~4000 cal BP. These results, and those from similar future studies, can provide baseline data for long-term monitoring and conservation initiatives.
