Introdução: Transtorno de humor segundo o DSM IV constitui-se do agrupamento daquilo que é chamado transtornos depressivos, afetivos ou as Distimias ( chamadas neuroses depressivas no passado). Esses têm uma característica evolutiva importante: evoluem por fases, em cujos intervalos paciente recupera toda a integridade psíquica anterior ao seu adoecimento. Objetivo: Esse estudo busca análise clínica epidemiológica sobre prevalência dos Transtornos Humor/Afetivos, período Janeiro 2014 Junho...

The interest in flexible and wearable electronics is increasing both scientific research multiple industry sectors, such as medicine healthcare, sports, fashion. Thus, compatible power sources are needed to develop secondary batteries, fuel cells, supercapacitors, sensors, dye-sensitized solar cells. Traditional liquid electrolytes pose challenges the development of textile-based due their potential for leakage, flammability, limited flexibility. On other hand, gel offer solutions these...

Textiles are important components for the development of lightweight and flexible displays useful in smart materials. In particular, halochromic textiles fibrous materials with a color-changing ability triggered by pH variations mainly based on pH-sensitive dye molecules. Recently, novel class 2-aminoimidazole azo dyes was developed distinct substituent patterns. this work, silk fabric functionalized through exhaustion first time one these (AzoIz.Pip). The properties were assessed an aqueous...

Hospitals and nursing home wards are areas prone to the propagation of infections particular concern regarding spreading dangerous viruses multidrug-resistant bacteria (MDRB). MDRB comprise approximately 20% cases in hospitals homes. Healthcare textiles, such as blankets, ubiquitous may be easily shared between patients/users without an adequate pre-cleaning process. Therefore, functionalizing these textiles with antimicrobial properties considerably reduce microbial load prevent infections,...

The poor mechanical performance and difficulty of using wound dressings without discomfort to the patient motivated development textile composites, incorporating peptide hydrogels in matrices. Thus, 70% viscose 30% polyester non-woven 100% cotton bandages were functionalized by impregnation with a hydrogel resulting from physical crosslinking Z-Tyr-Phe-OH dipeptide. healing properties these structures resulted incorporation curcumin into polymer. composites characterized Scanning Electron...

A parental child-centered feeding approach is likely to keep children’s biological mechanisms activated while eating, protecting them in an obesogenic context. However, few practice measures assess parents’ behaviors guide and prompt children identify respond appropriately their signs of hunger satiety. We aimed develop study the reliability, validity, measurement invariance a new scale practices promote self-regulation food intake. To pursue this aim, we conducted two descriptive,...
