RESUMO Este estudo objetivou mapear e categorizar os instrumentos de avaliação psicossocial, com evidências psicométricas disponíveis, para idosos brasileiros. Por meio de uma scoping review, foram identificados 5.258 estudos e após aplicação dos critérios de elegibilidade, 237 estudos foram incluídos para síntese analítica. Parte dos dados extraídos foram apresentados em quatro blocos: Identificadores da revis...
ABSTRACT Objective To follow the expansion of mesenchymal stem cells from umbilical cords by two classic senescence markers, p16 (INK4A) and p21 (CDKN1A), using practical, fast, and less expensive methods than the gold standard Western blotting technique, to evaluate its applicability in the laboratory. Methods Mesenchymal stem cells from umbilical cords were isolated from Wharton’s jelly and, after quality con...
Brazilian aeronautical industries report that, due to the high mechanical properties presented commercially, AA2024-T351 alloy presents fissures and non-homogeneous deformations during the mechanical processing. This work proposes a manufacturing process capable of increasing the ductility of the material to withstand tensions during processing and a subsequent treatment to recover the mechanical strength of th...
The aluminum bronze alloy is part of a class of highly reliable materials due to high mechanical strength and corrosion resistence being used in the aerospace and shipbuilding industry. It's machined to produce parts and after its use cycle, it's discarded, but third process is considered expensive and besides not being correct for environment reasons. Thus, reusing this material through the powder metallurgy (...
