Silva,Marcela Fernandes; Silva,Diego Salvador Muniz da; Bacurau,Aldiane Gomes de Macedo; Francisco,Priscila Maria Stolses Bergamo; Assumpção,Daniela deABSTRACT OBJECTIVE To report the main results of studies on prejudice, stereotyping, and age-based discrimination (ageism) in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic. METHODS This is an integrative review of the literature on ageism in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic, conducted between May and June 2020, with data collected from the following databases: Medical Literature Analysis and Retrieval System Online ...
Dor crônica em idosos e associações diretas e indiretas com variáveis sociodemo...
Ciola,Graziella; Silva,Marcela Fernandes; Yassuda,Monica Sanches; Neri,Anita Liberalesso; Borim,Flávia Silva ArbexResumo Objetivo Identificar a prevalência de dor crônica em idosos acima de 70 anos de idade e as relações diretas e indiretas entre dor crônica e variáveis sociodemográficas e de condições de saúde. Método Estudo transversal, realizado com 419 idosos de 72 anos ou mais, entre 2016 e 2017. Os participantes são provenientes do estudo de seguimento do Estudo FIBRA, que incluiu idosos não institucionalizados resid...

Silva,Marcela Fernandes; Assumpção,Daniela de; Francisco,Priscila Maria Stolses Bergamo; Neri,Anita Liberalesso; Yassuda,Mônica SanchesResumo Objetivos investigar a relação entre número de doenças crônicas e autoavaliação de saúde/capacidade funcional em relação a sexo e diferentes níveis educacionais. Métodos foi realizado um estudo transversal com 419 idosos que haviam participado do estudo FIBRA, o qual investiga fragilidade em indivíduos idosos. Foram avaliadas variáveis sociodemográficas, doenças crônicas não transmissíveis, autoavaliação...
Synthesis and Impregnation of Copper Oxide Nanoparticles on Activated Carbon th...
Peternela,Josiane; Silva,Marcela Fernandes; Vieira,Marcelo Fernandes; Bergamasco,Rosângela; Vieira,Angélica Marquetotti SalcedoIn this article was developed a green synthesis of CuO nanoparticles on vegetal activated carbon (VAC), using pomegranate leaf extract as reducing and stabilizing agent in the removal of multiple pollutants. The impregnated carbons with CuO nanoparticles were characterized morphologically and structurally. The SEM and XRD analysis, after carbons modification, showed that the surface structure remained porous wi...
Water Permeability Increase in Ultrafiltration Cellulose Acetate Membrane Conta...
Pereira,Bruna da Silva; Moreti,Lívia Oliveira Ruiz; Silva,Marcela Fernandes; Bergamasco,Rosangela; Piccioli,Angélica de Fátima BortolatoInorganic nanoparticles incorporation in polymer membranes for filtration processes has attracted the attention of researchers in order to improve in some ways their performance. In this work, AgNPs were synthesized "in situ" in cellulose acetate (CA) membrane by chemical reduction of a silver salt. The membranes were prepared by the nonsolvent induced phase inversion method. Asymmetric membranes without (CA-M)...
Lack of accessibility in public transport and inadequacy of sidewalks: effects ...
Santos,Michelle Didone dos; Silva,Marcela Fernandes; Velloza,Leonardo Antunes; Pompeu,José EduardoAbstract Objective: To analyze the association between the decline in the mobility of community dwelling elderly persons in São Paulo, Brazil and their capacity to use public transportation, and its impact on their quality of life and social participation. Method: A cross-sectional study was conducted of 32 community dwelling elderly persons, of both genders (59% female), with an average age of 75.5 years (±9.2...
The effect of supervised and home based exercises on balance in elderly subject...
Tanaka,Erika Harumi; Santos,Paulo Ferreira dos; Silva,Marcela Fernandes; Botelho,Priscila Fernanda Figueiredo Borges; Silva,PatríciaAbstract Objective: The aim of the present study was to evaluate the influence of a balance training program on the semi-static balance of elderly persons by comparing a supervised group with individual home-based application. Method: A blinded randomized controlled multi-arm trial was conducted. The elderly individuals were randomized into: Supervised Group (SG; n=18); Domiciliary Group (DG; n=20) and Control ...
Study of Thermal Degradation of PLGA, PLGA Nanospheres and PLGA/Maghemite Super...
Silva,Marcela Fernandes; Hechenleitner,Ana Adelina Winkler; Irache,Juan Manuel; Oliveira,Adilson Jesus Aparecido de; Pineda,Edgardo Alfonso GómezPoly(glycolide-co-lactide) (PLGA) nanospheres containing magnetic materials have been extensively studied because of its biomedical applications. Therefore, it is very important to know thermal properties of these materials in addition to other physical properties. Thermal degradation activation energy (Eα) of PLGA nanospheres with maghemite entrapment (PLGA-Mag), PLGA nanospheres (hollow spheres) (PLGA-H) obta...
APLICAÇÃO DE ÓXIDOS DE FERRO NANOESTRUTURADOS COMO ADSORVENTES E FOTOCATALISADO...
Silva,Marcela Fernandes; Pineda,Edgardo Alfonso Gómez; Bergamasco,RosangelaNew techniques for treating wastewater, particularly the removal or degradation of organic pollutants and heavy metals, among other pollutants, have been extensively studied. The use of nanostructured iron oxides as adsorbent and photocatalyst for the removal of these contaminants has proved a promising approach, not only because of their high treatment efficiency, but also for their cost-effectiveness, having ...
