Abstract:
The placenta is the central foetal organ that ensures a sufficient exchange of nutrients and metabolites for adequate foetal growth. Specific data profiles for placental characteristics from modern pig lines with high fertility and today’s genetics are not currently available. This study focuses on describing the placental weight and size of German Landrace pigs and any subsequent relationship to litter number and important fertility parameters for these sows. As a basis for data collection, 55 litters from primi- and multiparous German Landrace sows with a total of 832 piglets were used. From these births, 766 placentas were recovered and weighed, with their lengths measured and the placental efficiency per litter also calculated. Mean placental weights ranged from 179 ± 60 to 422 ± 96 g between litters, and the mean length was between 61 ± 12 and 145 ± 19 cm. The placental efficiency was at a level of 5.1 ± 0.7. The investigated parameters were only slightly affected by the litter number (r = 0.3), and the means did not significantly differ between different litter numbers. With increasing litter size, the piglet weights and placental lengths were significantly decreased (r = –0.4 and r = –0.3), possibly due to limited uterine space. However, litter size had a strong positive correlation with the total litter placental weight (r = 0.7); therefore, in this study, the placental efficiency was not affected by a higher number of piglets per sow. Higher means for placental weights (r = 0.7) and lengths (r = 0.7) in a particular litter significantly improved the piglet birth weights. The reported variability in placental characteristics between litters suggests that there is an opportunity to selectively breed for improved piglet weight and homogeneity and thus improved piglet health and survival.

Full text
Abstract:
The aim of this thesis is to lay the ground for further work on interpreting Coleridge’s Logic and its relation to the rest of his philosophy, particularly the system of speculative metaphysics and theology presented in Coleridge’s Opus Maximum fragments. I do this by exploring the connections between Coleridge’s conceptions of the a priori, the cognitive faculties (or capacities), and the nature of logical theory. Part 1 seeks to place Coleridge’s views on logic in their broader historical and intellectual context, showing why Coleridge considered the investigation of the faculties, and the analysis of our cognitive operations and contents, to be fundamental to logical theory, and arguing that this position is a product of Coleridge’s critical engagement with the early modern logic of ideas and faculties. Part 2 gives a preliminary account of Coleridge’s interpretation of two key Kantian terms, ‘a priori’ and ‘transcendental’, exploring the analogies Coleridge uses to elucidate the nature of the a priori and the purpose of transcendental claims. Part 3 expands on this account, considering how Coleridge’s conceptions of the a priori and the transcendental inform his claims, especially in Logic, on the human mental faculties and their contribution to sensory experience and cognition; it focuses on Coleridge’s views on ‘the obvious threefold division’ of our cognitive capacities into sense, understanding, and reason, his descriptions of the formal (a priori) and material (a posteriori) elements of cognition, and his functional theory of the constitution of our faculties. Part 4 discusses the relations between Coleridge’s theory of the cognitive capacities and his conception of the a priori, focusing on Coleridge’s claims concerning the origins of a priori forms and contents in our cognitive capacities, and the transcendental method of inquiry which he contends is able to prove such claims.

Abstract:
Height, skinfold, and circumference measurements were obtained from 29 normal weight and 17 overweight (>110% of desirable weight for height) healthy pregnant women every four weeks during their second trimester of pregnancy. The mean weight gain and food intake values were not significantly different for both groups. Measurements increased at a greater rate for the normal weight gravidas than for the overweight gravidas in almost every case. For both groups, increases in fat stores were greater in the central sites than in the peripheral sites. No clear relationship between age, prepregnant weight, and weight gain during the second trimester with the birthweight of the baby was found. The infant birthweights of both groups were at an optimal level ( >2500 grams) except for one (born to the mother 151% of her desirable weight for height). The similarity in results for the two groups is greatly due to there not being a large enough difference in prepregnant weights between the two groups. Nevertheless, the results do lend support to a 20 to 30 pound weight gain for an optimal outcome of pregnancy for healthy pregnant women with a wide range of prepregnancy weights. Those women 150% or more of their desirable weight for height may need to gain on the lower end of the spectrum due to their excess endogenous reserves and to possible harm to the fetus with large gains.

Abstract:
Relationships among glucose tolerance, plasma insulin, and plasma glucagon were examined in chicks developed through selection for high (HW) and low (LW) body weight, and in F, crosses (HL) between HW males and LW females. At 21, 42, 63, and 84 days of age, chicks from each population were intubated with glucose (2 g/kg body weight) following a 24-hr fast. Blood was collected at 20-minute intervals up to 100 minutes postadministration. At all ages, the LW chicks were better able to metabolize glucose than their HW counterparts, while the HLs exhibited intermediate responses. Impaired glucose tolerance in the HWs and HLs was not associated with insulin insufficiency; the HWs and HLs, in comparison to the LWs, were hyperinsulinemic at 42 and 63 days of age and plasma insulin levels did not differ among populations at 21 or 84 days of age. Plasma glucagon responses to glucose administration were inconsistent, but plasma glucagon levels were consistently higher in the HWs and HLs than in the LWs. It was concluded that excessive fat deposition in chickens selected for rapid growth is associated with hyperinsulinemia and insulin resistance.

Resumo: A capacidade de prever os tumores órgão-confinados e a recorrência bioquímica pós-prostatectomia radical é o objetivo principal dos nomogramas pré-terapêuticos. A aferição da extensão tumoral do carcinoma em biópsias transretais aumenta o valor preditivo desses nomogramas. Os objetivos deste trabalho são avaliar características anatomoclínicas dos pacientes submetidos à prostatectomia radical entre 1997 e 2008 no Hospital das Clínicas da Universidade Estadual de Campinas, associando os aspectos morfológicos encontrados nas biópsias transretais com a extensão tumoral final, a situação das margens cirúrgicas, o estádio patológico e a recorrência bioquímica. Nas biópsias, a extensão tumoral foi avaliada através das seguintes formas: 1- Número e percentagem de fragmentos comprometidos por carcinoma; 2- Extensão total e percentual de carcinoma em milímetros de todos os fragmentos e 3- Maior extensão e maior percentual de carcinoma em um único fragmento. A presença de invasão perineural, de formações glomeruloides e de micronódulos colágenos nas biópsias foram associadas a diferentes variáveis clinicopatológicas. Foram incluídas no estudo todas as prostatectomias radicais submetidas inteiramente a exame histológico e estadiadas segundo os critérios da AJCC, 7ª edição. A extensão tumoral nas prostatectomias radicais foi avaliada através do sistema de contagem de pontos. Os valores de PSA ?0,2ng/mL foram considerados como marcadores bioquímicos de progressão tumoral. Para a associação entre variáveis contínuas foi utilizado o teste de Spearman. Para a comparação entre os diferentes métodos de extensão tumoral e o estádio patológico final >T2 e a situação das margens cirúrgicas foi utilizada regressão logística binária. O tempo de sobrevida livre de doença foi estudado usando o produto limite de Kaplan-Meier. Para avaliar o risco de recorrência bioquímica, foram realizadas análises uni e multivariadas, baseadas no modelo de Cox. Foram considerados significantes os valores de p?0,05. Todos os métodos de avaliação da extensão tumoral foram capazes de prever estádio patológico final >T2 e o comprometimento das margens cirúrgicas. Com a exceção da maior extensão e do maior percentual de carcinoma num único fragmento, todos os métodos estiveram associados a um maior risco de recorrência bioquímica. Somente a percentagem de fragmentos com carcinoma (%NFC), a maior extensão tumoral num único fragmento (MFC), o comprimento total da neoplasia em milímetros (ETC) e o percentual de carcinoma em todos os fragmentos (%ETC) mostraram diferença significativa no tempo de recorrência bioquímica pós-prostatectomia radical (Kaplan-Meier). O percentual do comprimento total de carcinoma (%ETC) apresentou maior valor preditivo que as demais aferições em relação ao estádio patológico final >pT2 e à recorrência bioquímica. O número de fragmentos comprometidos por carcinoma apresentou a melhor capacidade preditiva na avaliação do comprometimento das margens cirúrgicas. Em análise multivariada, o modelo que combinou PSA pré-operatório, graduação histológica de Gleason e %ETC mostrou maior capacidade preditiva de estádio patológico >pT2 e risco de recorrência bioquímica. Os micronódulos colágenos, as formações glomeruloides e a infiltração perineural foram achados infrequentes nas biópsias (13,7%, 11,9% e 20,8%, respectivamente). Não houve associação entre a presença de micronódulos colágenos com qualquer variável clínica, patológica ou recorrência tumoral. As formações glomeruloides estiveram diretamente relacionadas com a idade dos pacientes e com a graduação histológica de Gleason, tanto nas biópsias como nas prostatectomias radicais. A invasão perineural esteve diretamente relacionada à doença extraprostática (estádio patológico >T2). Não houve associação entre invasão perineural e recorrência bioquímica pós-cirurgia. Para o anatomopatologista em sua rotina diária é menos morosa e mais prática a simples aferição do número de fragmentos com carcinoma (NFC) e o percentual em relação ao total de fragmentos da amostra (%NFC). Essas aferições, associadas ao PSA pré-operatório e à graduação histológica de Gleason, constituem um modelo preditivo significante do estádio patológico final >T2
Abstract: The focus of pre therapeutic nomograms is to preview organ-confined prostate cancer and biochemical recurrence. Measuring cancer extent on needle prostatic biopsies enhance the predictive value of nomograms. The objectives of this study were evaluate clinical and pathological characteristics of patients submitted to radical prostatectomy at University of Campinas from 1997 to 2008, correlating the morphological aspects on prostate needle biopsy with final tumoral extent, positive surgical margins, pathological stage and biochemical recurrence. Tumor extent was evaluated on needle biopsies as: 1- Number and percentage of cores with carcinoma; 2- Total length and percentage of cancer in mm in all cores; and, 3- The greatest length and percentage of cancer in a single core. Perineural invasion, collagenous micronodules and glomeruloid structures were also observed and correlated to different clinical and pathological variables. All surgical specimens were whole-mount processed and totally embedded. The pathological stage was defined by AJCC, 7th edition. Tumoral extent was evaluated by a semiquantitative point-count method. Biochemical progression was defined as PSA ?0.2ng/mL. Logistic regression was used to relate the variables to pathological stage>T2 and surgical margins. Spearman test was used to associate continuous variables. Time to biochemical (PSA) progression-free outcome was studied using the Kaplan-Meier product-limit analysis; the comparison between the groups was done using the log-rank test. For the risk of recurrence, univariate and multivariate analyses were based on Cox model. Two-sided P value <0.05 was considered statistically significant. All measurements significantly predicted stage >pT2 and positive surgical margins. With the exception of the greatest length and percentage of cancer in a single core, all other methods were associated with a higher risk for biochemical recurrence. Only percentage of cores with carcinoma, greatest length of tumor in a single core and length and percentage of cancer in all cores significantly showed different time for PSA recurrence (Kaplan-Meier). Percentage of length of carcinoma in all cores was significantly and consistently stronger than other measures in all comparisons and combined to preoperative PSA and Gleason grade in multivariate analysis gained prediction for pathologic stage >T2 and was independent for risk of biochemical recurrence. The number of cores with carcinoma was stronger than other measures to predict positive surgical margins. Collagenous micronodules, glomeruloid structures and perineural invasion were infrequent findings on needle biopsies (13,7%, 11,9% e 20,8%, respectively). Collagenous micronodules were not related to any clinical or pathological variable, as well as tumoral recurrence. Glomeruloid structures were related to age and Gleason grade on needle biopsies and radical prostatectomies. Perineural invasion were directly associated to pathological stage >T2 (extraprostatic disease). There was no association between biochemical recurrence and perineural invasion, even in patients with organ-confined cancer. Percentage of total length of carcinoma in mm in all cores was statistically the strongest predictor of stage >pT2 and biochemical recurrence following radical prostatectomy, however, number and percentage of biopsy cores with cancer (the easiest way to measure tumor extent) are also statistically significant predictors and may be the favorite choice for the great majority of practical pathologists. Combined with preoperative PSA and Gleason grade on biopsy may improve the predictive value for stage >pT2

Essa investigação procurou explorar a dinâmica das redes e relações familiares envolvendo os juízes almotacés na Câmara Municipal de Rio Pardo no período de 1811 a 1830. Demarcado pelos juízes almotacés, homens da elite municipal e regional, e pelas suas famílias, procura examinar a atuação e as estratégias desses indivíduos no universo da câmara e da almotaçaria, disciplinando e normatizando as atividades comerciais, as condições de higiene da vila, regulando o dia a dia da população. A partir disso, busca-se assinalar a afirmação social, econômica e política desses indivíduos na Vila de Rio Pardo, tecendo redes e relações no centro do poder da administração municipal, sobre as quais convergiam também os interesses familiares e a formação de alianças matrimoniais com o intuito de ampliar o status social de determinados grupos familiares. Para finalizar, procuramos explorar um pouco das rivalidades e intrigas entre os "homens bons" da Vila de Rio Pardo numa disputa pelo poder e status político-social em uma das mais antigas e tradicionais vilas da Capitania/Província do Rio Grande de São Pedro.
This investigation seeks to explore the dynamics of the family relations and networks involving weights and measures inspectors in the Rio Pardo City Council, from 1811 to 1830. Demarcated by the weights and measures inspectors, elite regional and municipal citizens, and by the families, the paper seeks to examine the work and strategies of these individuals in the universe of the city council and the Office of Weights and Measures, disciplining and standardizing the commercial activities, the sanitation conditions of the village, the social, economic and political affirmation of these individuals is characterized in the Rio Pardo Village, weaving networks and relations in the heart of the municipal administration’s power, which also attracted family interests and gave origin to matrimonial alliances with the clear intention to broaden the social status of specific family groups. To finalize the paper, we tried to explore a little about the competitions and backstage bickerings between the “good men” in the Rio Pardo Village, fighting for power and political status in one of the oldest and most traditional villages of Captaincy/Province of Rio Grande do São Pedro.

Abstract:
Total weaning weight records of 29,832 Angus and 15,765 Hereford calves born during 1953 through 1983 in Virginia were used to evaluate phenotypic and genetic trends for adjusted weaning weight (AWWT), weaning weight ratio (WWR) and deviation of AWWT from the mean AWWT of the contemporaries (DEVN). Two approaches, namely the regression techniques and maximum likelihood (ML) procedure were taken to estimate the above trends. The estimates of annual phenotypic trend for AWWT in the Angus and Hereford breeds were .96 and .82 kg/yr, respectively. The sire and dam genetic trends obtained from both approaches for the traits of interest were positive and significant; however, the estimates from the regression analyses were slightly higher than those- from the ML procedure. The estimates of one-half of the sire genetic trends obtained from ML procedure for WWR and DEVN were .40 ± .04 ratio units/yr and .72 ± .07 kg/yr in the Angus breed and the corresponding values for the Hereford breed were .25 ± .06 ratio units/yr and .45 ± .12 kg/yr. The estimates of one-half of the darn trends for the corresponding traits were .32 ± .02 ratio units/yr and .55 ± .04 kg/yr for Angus and .21 ± .03 ratio units/yr and .30 ± .07 kg/yr for Herefords. The application of adjustment factors (to eliminate the bias due to non-random mating and culling levels) to estimates of sire genetic trends in the regression analyses produced estimates more similar to the estimates obtained from the ML procedure. The average annual genetic trends over the study period from the ML procedure for AWWT were 1.27 kg/yr for Angus and .75 kg/yr for Herefords.

Acompanha: Ensino de grandezas e medidas: uma proposta de sequência didática com materiais manipuláveis
O objetivo deste estudo é analisar como o uso de Materiais Manipuláveis pode contribuir para o processo de aprendizagem dos conceitos de Grandezas e Medidas para alunos do 6º ano do Ensino Fundamental. Partiu-se do pressuposto de que a aprendizagem constitui um processo de construção de significado dos objetos e, essa compreensão depende das experiências de vida de cada sujeito sendo entendido como conhecimentos prévios dos alunos. Nessa perspectiva, foi elaborada e aplicada uma sequência didática, a partir do tema Grandezas e Medidas. Do ponto de vista metodológico, o estudo inseriu-se numa pesquisa qualitativa, de natureza interpretativa, envolvendo alunos do 6º ano do Ensino Fundamental de um colégio público estadual da cidade de Ortigueira - PR. A pesquisa orientou-se pela seguinte questão: Quais as contribuições que o uso de Materiais Manipuláveis poderá trazer para a aprendizagem de Grandezas e Medidas no 6º Ano do Ensino Fundamental? Os dados utilizados neste trabalho foram coletados durante todo o desenvolvimento da sequência didática, com o uso dos seguintes instrumentos: aplicação da avaliação diagnóstica, observação, fotografias, registros escritos e relatos orais. Os resultados indicam que as atividades dos módulos da sequência didática, contribuíram para o avanço progressivo dos conhecimentos dos alunos, demonstrando que é possível, efetivar um trabalho diferenciado e contextualizado, centrado na formação para a cidadania. Vale lembrar que a implementação dessa proposta requer esforço coletivo e concretização do compromisso inerente à ação pedagógica - a prática da pesquisa, da reflexão e da formação permanente. Com o propósito de compartilhar saberes docentes com outros profissionais da área, como produto final desse trabalho, foi elaborado um caderno pedagógico, contendo uma sequência didática com um conjunto de atividades didáticas que viabilizem a utilização de Materiais Manipuláveis como ferramenta pedagógica nas séries finais do Ensino Fundamental, intitulado: “Ensino de Grandezas e Medidas: uma proposta de sequência didática com materiais manipuláveis”.
The objective of this study is to analyze how the use of Manipulable Materials can contribute to the process of learning the concepts of Greatness and Measures for students of the 6th year of Elementary School. It was assumed that learning is a process of constructing meaning of objects and that understanding depends on the life experiences of each subject being understood as prior knowledge of the students. From this perspective, a didactic sequence was elaborated and applied, based on the theme Grandezas e Media. From the methodological point of view, the study was inserted in a qualitative research, of an interpretative nature, involving students of the 6th grade of Elementary School of a state public college in the city of Ortigueira - PR. The research was guided by the following question: What contributions could the use of Manipulable Materials bring to the learning of Greatness and Measures in the 6th Year of Elementary Education? The data used in this work were collected throughout the development of the didactic sequence, using the following instruments: application of diagnostic evaluation, observation, photographs, written records and oral reports. The results indicate that the activities of the modules of the didactic sequence contributed to the progressive advancement of the students' knowledge, demonstrating that it is possible to carry out a differentiated and contextualized work centered on the formation of citizenship. It is worth remembering that the implementation of this proposal requires collective effort and concretization of the commitment inherent in pedagogical action - the practice of research, reflection and permanent formation. With the purpose of sharing teacher knowledge with other professionals of the area, as a final product of this work, a pedagogical book was elaborated, containing a didactic sequence with a set of didactic activities that enabled the use of Manipulable Materials as pedagogical tool in the final series of Teaching Fundamental, titled: "Teaching of Greatness and Measures: a proposal for a didactic sequence with manipulable materials".

Abstract:
We study the problem of extending the classic centrality measures to weighted graphs. Unfortunately, in the existing extensions, paths in the graph are evaluated solely based on their weights, which is a restrictive and undesirable assumption for a variety of settings. Given this, we define a notion of the path evaluation function that assesses a path between two nodes by looking not only on the sum of edge weights, but also on the number of intermediaries. Using an axiomatic approach, we propose three classes of path evaluation functions. Building upon this analysis, we present the first systematic study how classic centrality measures can be extended to weighted graphs while taking into account an arbitrary path evaluation function. As an application, we use the newly-defined measures to identify the most well-linked districts in a sample public transport network.

Abstract:
The paper describes the background of the European Harmonized Reference Value for the cubic meter of Natural Gas at high pressure, which is in use in Germany, The Netherlands and France since May 4th, 2004. The harmonization process began on November 1st, 1999 between Germany and The Netherlands and has been finalized on May 4, 2004 due to the incorporation of the French LNE to the Harmonized Reference Value. The outcome was named: “Harmonized European Natural Gas Cubic Meter” as realized by three independent National Metrology Institutes. The prerequisites of the harmonization process, underlying procedures, results obtained so far and the mutual benefits will be pointed out as well as the economic consequences for the European market as well as for the international user. The paper shows the degree of equivalence between the three participating NMIs PTB, LNE and NMi-VSL. Under auspices of the BIPM (International Bureau for Weight and Measurers) as well as the CIPM (International Conference for Weight and Measures), which is the highest metrological authority worldwide, so called Key Comparisons (KC) have been conducted to get international reference values for all quantities of interest. Among these KCs, the flow area is of economic importance and Key Comparisons for natural gas flow at high pressure and larger flow rates have been conducted successfully. The outcome of such a KC is the international Key Comparisons Reference Value (KCRV), which is then considered to be the worldwide best available realization of Natural Gas Flow at high pressure. These KCs have been conducted among the National Primary Standards of all nations worldwide, represented by their National Metrology Institutes (NMIs) and have been finalized in December 2004 and the KCRV has been approved by the BIPM in April 2005. It turns out at last that the international recommended reference value is exactly the same as the above mentioned European Harmonized Reference Value.

Abstract:
Tractable Deep Probabilistic Models (TPMs) are generative models based on arithmetic circuits that allow for exact marginal inference in linear time. These models have obtained promising results in several machine learning tasks. Like many other models, TPMs can produce over-confident incorrect inferences, especially on regions with small statistical support. In this work, we will develop efficient estimators of the predictive uncertainty that are robust to data scarcity and outliers. We investigate two approaches. The first approach measures the variability of the output to perturbations of the model weights. The second approach captures the variability of the prediction to changes in the model architecture. We will evaluate the approaches on challenging tasks such as image completion and multilabel classification.

Abstract:
Drug similarity has been studied to support downstream clinical tasks such as inferring novel properties of drugs (e.g. side effects, indications, interactions) from known properties. The growing availability of new types of drug features brings the opportunity of learning a more comprehensive and accurate drug similarity that represents the full spectrum of underlying drug relations. However, it is challenging to integrate these heterogeneous, noisy, nonlinear-related information to learn accurate similarity measures especially when labels are scarce. Moreover, there is a trade-off between accuracy and interpretability. In this paper, we propose to learn accurate and interpretable similarity measures from multiple types of drug features. In particular, we model the integration using multi-view graph auto-encoders, and add attentive mechanism to determine the weights for each view with respect to corresponding tasks and features for better interpretability. Our model has flexible design for both semi-supervised and unsupervised settings. Experimental results demonstrated significant predictive accuracy improvement. Case studies also showed better model capacity (e.g. embed node features) and interpretability.

Abstract:
Recently, Graph Convolutional Networks (GCNs) have proven to be a powerful mean for Computer Aided Diagnosis (CADx). This approach requires building a population graph to aggregate structural information, where the graph adjacency matrix represents the relationship between nodes. Until now, this adjacency matrix is usually defined manually based on phenotypic information. In this paper, we propose an encoder that automatically selects the appropriate phenotypic measures according to their spatial distribution, and uses the text similarity awareness mechanism to calculate the edge weights between nodes. The encoder can automatically construct the population graph using phenotypic measures which have a positive impact on the final results, and further realizes the fusion of multimodal information. In addition, a novel graph convolution network architecture using multi-layer aggregation mechanism is proposed. The structure can obtain deep structure information while suppressing over-smooth, and increase the similarity between the same type of nodes. Experimental results on two databases show that our method can significantly improve the diagnostic accuracy for Autism spectrum disorder and breast cancer, indicating its universality in leveraging multimodal data for disease prediction.

Abstract:
Measuring how central nodes are in terms of connecting a network has recently received increasing attention in the literature. While a few dedicated centrality measures have been proposed, Skibski et al. [2016] showed that the Attachment Centrality is the only one that satisfies certain natural axioms desirable for connectivity. Unfortunately, the Attachment Centrality is defined only for unweighted graphs which makes this measure ill-fitted for various applications. For instance, covert networks are typically weighted, where the weights carry additional intelligence available about criminals or terrorists and the links between them. To analyse such settings, in this paper we extend the Attachment Centrality to node-weighted and edge-weighted graphs. By an axiomatic analysis, we show that the Attachment Centrality is closely related to the Degree Centrality in weighted graphs.
