Título: A Defensoria Pública e o papel da mulher nas carreiras militares: um estudo sobre a representatividade feminina e as iniciativas institucionais voltadas ao tema no âmbito da Polícia Militar do Estado da Bahia, de 2019 a 2022 Autor(es): Teixeira, Camila Angélica Canário de Sá Primeiro Orientador: Souza, Karine Freitas Abstract: In Brazil, women entered military careers around 1950, being a recent achievement in our democracy. In Bahia, the literature indicates that this access began in 1980. However, a model persists in which it is not common for women to occupy spaces in a significant way. Both from the point of view of access and from the point of view of advancement, it is necessary to evaluate the context in which this woman is inserted, addressing their level of representation within the Military Police of Bahia, forty years after their first entry. On the other hand, the Public Defender's Office, with the advent of LC 80/94, emerged as an institution focused on promoting Human Rights, with gender equality asits main banner. Within the scope of the internal organization of the Defender's Office, it is clear that the defense of military personnel cannot be dissociated from the critical outlook and values advocated as the foundations of the Defender's Office's raison d'être.This is the driving force for the limitation on the entry of women and the low representation in command posts to have been observed and questioned in a public hearing aimed at this purpose on February 6, 2020. Thus, the path forward points to the creation of an Observatory of Institutional Gender Violence organized by the Public Defender's Office with the aim of continually collecting more accurate data on the reality stated to support actions that may impact in some way on the given panorama. The observatory will also provide data on the reality of military firefighters, thus closing the state public security forces. The present study considers the theory of the glass ceiling (ceillingglass) in Daniela Versola Vaz, Laudicéia Soares de Oliveira, Andreia Valeria Steil and Cristina Tavares da Costa Rocha, from a feminist epistemological perspective and proposes to be structured in the field of everyday interactions .Instruments such as a historical and conceptual survey of central elements were used to better understand the career structure. Data collection and the state of the art are included to evaluate the current situation of women's role in this career, in the time frame from 2019 to 2022, evaluating legal and constitutional aspects to extract the data necessary to map the situation, and how This has repercussions on the proposal to create and structure an Observatory of Institutional Gender Violence in the Public Defender's Office. The research points to a gradual increase in representation, for now more present in access, as ascension to higher positions is slower.

Do Presencial ao Virtual: a comunicação em museus universitários de arte em tempos de pandemia

RI - qui, 02/10/2025 - 21:00
Título: Do Presencial ao Virtual: a comunicação em museus universitários de arte em tempos de pandemia Autor(es): Gonzales, Humberto Torres Primeiro Orientador: Duarte, Ana Helena da Silva Delfino Abstract: The present master's research aims to map and analyze the online communication strategies planned and developed by the Museu Universitário de Arte (MUnA), a complementary unit of the Instituto de Artes (IARTE) at the Universidade Federal de Uberlândia (UFU), during the period of remote operation and the museum's closure to the public due to the covid-19 pandemic in Brazil. Therefore, through a theoretical immersion in the field of museum communication, intersected with digital technologies, and an update on the history, configurations, and profiles of university museum centers in both national and international scenarios, we focused on exploring the context in which MUnA is inserted: the dimension of Brazilian university art museums. Our dissertation is an exploratory case study, using a quali-quantitative approach, and is characterized by a hybrid body of analysis methods, including literature review, questionnaire application, and document research combined with digital and folksonomic investigation methods. The historical scope of the study covers MUnA’s management from 2020 to 2022, extending from March 2020 to May 2022. Our data collection allowed for an updated quantitative overview of University Art Museum Centers in Brazil and a comprehensive listing of the publications issued by MUnA on its digital communication channel, the social media platform Instagram, over the 25 months of our study period. Based on this data collection, combined with the applied questionnaires and observation of communication approaches in analogous institutions, the research concludes that MUnA’s communication shift to an exclusively online dimension, within the scope of the public program #MUnAcomVocê, maintained key institutional aspects previously identified during its inperson operations, such as commitment and care to communication aspects, particularly the use of visual technologies. In the pandemic context, this communication expanded virtually, incorporating into its online museum activities new media formats driven by poetic and informational visuality through 14 remote initiatives, aiming to enhance the museum’s visibility and communication channels to its web-based audience, guided by an interactive and participatory perspective.; La presente investigación de maestría tiene como objetivo mapear y analizar las estrategias de comunicación en línea planeadas y desarrolladas por el Museo Universitario de Arte (MUnA), un órgano complementario del Instituto de Artes (IARTE) de la Universidad Federal de Uberlândia (UFU), durante el período de operación remota y el cierre del museo al público debido a la pandemia de covid-19 en Brasil. Por lo tanto, a partir de una inmersión teórica en el campo de la comunicación museológica atravesada por la esfera de las tecnologías digitales y la actualización sobre la historia, configuraciones y perfiles de los núcleos museológicos universitarios en el contexto nacional e internacional, nos dedicamos a la exploración del locus en el que se inserta el MUnA: la dimensión de los museos universitarios de arte brasileños. Nuestra disertación se configura como un estudio de caso de naturaleza exploratoria, con un enfoque cualitativo y cuantitativo, y se caracteriza por un cuerpo híbrido de métodos de análisis, entre los cuales destacamos la revisión bibliográfica, la aplicación de cuestionarios y la investigación documental, junto con métodos digitales y folksonómicos de investigación. El recorte histórico del estudio abarca la gestión del MUnA entre 2020 y 2022, extendiéndose desde marzo de 2020 hasta mayo de 2022. Nuestra recopilación de datos permitió una actualización cuantitativa sobre los Núcleos Museológicos Universitarios de Arte en Brasil y un listado íntegro de las publicaciones difundidas por el MUnA en su canal de comunicación digital a través de la plataforma de redes sociales Instagram durante los 25 meses de nuestro estudio. La investigación concluye, a partir de esta recopilación de datos, junto con los cuestionarios aplicados y la observación de enfoques comunicacionales en instituciones análogas, que la migración comunicacional del MUnA a la dimensión exclusivamente en línea, en el ámbito del programa público #MUnAcomVocê, conservó aspectos institucionales saludables previamente diagnosticados a lo largo del establecimiento y actuación del MUnA, aún en una dimensión presencial, como el compromiso y el cuidado en el aspecto comunicacional, que involucra notablemente el uso de tecnologías visuales. En el contexto de la pandemia, esta comunicación logró expandirse virtualmente de manera que exploró e incorporó en su rutina museológica en línea nuevas naturalezas mediáticas basadas en la visualidad poética e informativa, a través de 14 iniciativas desarrolladas de manera remota, con el objetivo de aumentar la visibilidad del museo y sus canales de comunicación frente al público web, guiados por una perspectiva interactiva y participativa.

Biomarcadores e fatores de risco na condição Pós-COVID: revisões sistematizadas da literatura

RI - qui, 18/09/2025 - 21:00
Título: Biomarcadores e fatores de risco na condição Pós-COVID: revisões sistematizadas da literatura Autor(es): Amorim, Amanda dos Santos Primeiro Orientador: Oliveira, Márcio Vasconcelos Abstract: Introduction: Post-COVID status (PCS), also known as long COVID, refers to the persistence of signs and symptoms after the acute phase of SARS-CoV-2 infection, significantly affecting the quality of life of affected individuals. Despite its high prevalence, gaps remain in the diagnosis, monitoring, and treatment of PCS, especially within the Unified Health System (SUS), where specific public policies and clinical guidelines are lacking. Given this scenario, this study aimed to gather and systematize scientific evidence and identify potential biomarkers and risk factors involved in PCS, focusing on their clinical implications and potential application in healthcare practice. Methodology: The research was conducted using two distinct and complementary strategies. The first consisted of a scoping review, which identified and mapped the main clinical and prognostic biomarkers described in the literature between 2020 and 2024. The second was a systematic review with meta-analysis, focused on the quantitative analysis of the association between the interleukins IL-1β, IL-6, and IL-8 and CPC, as well as the main risk factors for it. Results: The scoping review's findings demonstrated the relevance of inflammatory, endothelial, and autoimmune markers, with a greater emphasis on the interleukins IL-1β, IL-6, and IL-8. However, the following markers were also reported: CRP, D-dimer, VEGF-A, MMPs, MPO, ANA, and HMGB1. Interleukins reflect a dysregulated and sustained immune response, typical of CPC, requiring further studies. The systematic review with meta-analysis demonstrated significant elevations in interleukins IL-6 (SMD = 0.84; 95% CI: 0.38–1.31) and IL-8 (SMD = 0.50; 95% CI: 0.02–0.98) in patients with CPC, suggesting a persistent and sustained inflammatory state, while IL-1β showed only an upward trend, without statistical significance. Subgroup analysis indicated that advanced age, severity of acute COVID-19, and the presence of comorbidities such as hypertension and obesity are associated with higher levels of these interleukins and an increased risk of CPC. Conclusion: The findings reinforce that the identification and monitoring of biomarkers, especially IL-6 and IL-8, can contribute to the advancement of understanding of CPC and support more precise clinical strategies. Although they cannot yet be considered established diagnostic markers, their relevance as promising candidates highlights the need for further clinical studies and investment in translational research. The future incorporation of these findings into the SUS routine may represent an important step in tackling the long form in Brazil.

Avaliação da Rede de Atenção às Urgências e Emergências na Assistência ao Infarto Agudo do Miocárdio à Liz da Teoria Donabediana

Título: Avaliação da Rede de Atenção às Urgências e Emergências na Assistência ao Infarto Agudo do Miocárdio à Liz da Teoria Donabediana Autor(es): Pereira Filho, Edilson da Silva Primeiro Orientador: Teixeira, Giselle Alves da Silva Abstract: This dissertation aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of the Emergency Care Network in the assistance provided to acute myocardial infarction, based on Donabedian’s theory structured in the dimensions of structure, process, and outcomes. It is an evaluative study, with a qualitative and descriptive approach, conducted through the analysis of secondary data extracted from the Department of Informatics of the Unified Health System, the National Registry of Health Establishments, and the State Health Plan of Bahia. The timeframe covered the period from 2013 to 2023, enabling the analysis of a decade of network evolution through indicators of coverage, access, care processes, and outcomes related to acute myocardial infarction. The object of study is part of the cardiovascular line of care, defined as a priority by the National Policy for Emergency Care due to the high mortality of ischemic heart diseases and the timedependent condition of acute myocardial infarction. The choice of this condition as a tracer event was based on its epidemiological relevance and the possibility of measuring objective indicators of the network’s response. The theoretical model adopted was Donabedian’s structure–process–outcome triad, which allows the articulation of available material and organizational conditions, the way services are delivered, and the effects generated on the population’s health, composing a comprehensive evaluation of the network’s effectiveness. The results revealed both advances and weaknesses. In the dimension of structure, the presence of bases of the Mobile Emergency Care Service, Emergency Care Units, and referral hospitals was identified, although unevenly distributed, which highlighted important care gaps. Shortages of intensive care unit beds and coronary care units, along with the concentration of hemodynamic services in Salvador, compromised territorial equity. Regarding care processes, the gradual incorporation of clinical protocols, the implementation of risk classification, and the regulatory role of the mobile emergency service contributed to improving the network’s response. However, failures persisted in the integration between care points, heterogeneous response times, limited availability of pre- and in-hospital thrombolysis, the absence of primary angioplasty in the territory, and reduced articulation with primary health care. These factors compromise the comprehensiveness of care and the full achievement of effectiveness. In terms of outcomes, a paradox was observed: the Northeast Regional Health District presented lower hospital morbidity rates for acute myocardial infarction and, simultaneously, mortality rates also lower than the state average. These findings, although they may indicate resolvability in certain cases, raise the hypothesis of underreporting and flaws in the recording of health information systems, pointing to the need to improve data quality. The critical analysis demonstrated that, although the objectives were achieved by mapping the network, measuring indicators, and discussing its effectiveness structural and organizational limitations persist, revealing a mismatch between the normative design of the policy and its implementation in the territories. In the Northeast Regional Health District of Bahia has achieved significant advances but has not yet reached full effectiveness. More than the existence of isolated services or indicators, effectiveness translates into the ability to provide timely, integrated, and resolutive responses to the population’s needs. The evaluation carried out reaffirms the importance of evaluative research as a scientific and political tool, essential to strengthening the Unified Health System as a public, universal, and equitable system.

Título: Distorções e contradições da estrutura produtiva do estado de Alagoas e seu impacto econômico e social a partir do método estrutural-diferencial Autor(es): Silva Junior, Alonso Barros da Primeiro Orientador: Wanderley, Livio Andrade Abstract: This thesis investigates the structural limitations of Alagoas' industrial sector and its impacts on economic growth and formal employment. Using the structural-differential model (ShiftShare) and a sectoral ranking based on indicators of economic complexity (ICE) and technological intensity (OECD), the research analyzes the performance of industrial activities across the state's three mesoregions (Leste, Agreste, and Sertão) from 2010 to 2019. The results reveal a strong industrial concentration in the Leste region, which shows signs of declining competitiveness; the Agreste region stands out in terms of regional competitiveness; and the Sertão remains economically stagnant. Sectoral analysis shows that more sophisticated industries—such as pharmaceuticals and chemicals—still have marginal participation in employment, while less complex and technologically lagging sectors predominate. Based on these findings, the study proposes strengthening strategic sectors and promoting industrial decentralization as key strategies for achieving more balanced and sustainable regional development.

Currículo PiXado – Rasuras, Enquadramentos e Fabulações

RI - qua, 27/08/2025 - 21:00
Título: Currículo PiXado – Rasuras, Enquadramentos e Fabulações Autor(es): Silva Filho, Elisio José da Primeiro Orientador: Sá, Maria Roseli Gomes Brito de Abstract: The following doctorate thesis in Education explores the curriculum as a field of disputes, inscriptions, and erasures, refusing its understanding as a fixed structure or a normative document. The research adopts a post-structuralist approach, conceiving a "methodologizing slip" that embraces multiplicity and errancy as guiding principles. In this displacement, the thesis explores the relationships between Art, Curriculum, and Tagging (Pichação), taking erasure as a methodological and conceptual gesture. The central question that guides it investigates how the logic of tagging, as a gesture of occupation and erasure, can pierce through curricular thought, dislocating its normative senses and reinscribing the curriculum as an open and moving process. To do so, the research is articulated through Fabulation, a way of thinking and a conceptual-narrative device that invents possible realities for the curriculum. This approach is materialized through methodologizing operators: Erasure, understood as a double writing that exposes tensions and exclusions; PiXação (spelled with a capital "X" to demarcate its genuine aesthetic dimension), which emerges as a powerful metaphor and a political gesture; and the Frames of Surveillance, Performativity, and Deconstruction. The frames act as transitory devices to condense the complex relationships among teaching, learning, and knowledge production. The choice of their names is not arbitrary, but responds to the concern of exposing the hidden layers of knowledge, tensioning educational and artistic practices, and questioning the stability of pedagogical certainties. The research unfolds into three fabulations— "The Framed Curriculum (or the Anatomy of a grid)" seen under the Surveillance Frame; "The Trampled Curriculum (or When the Class Plan skids)" seen through the Performativity Frame; and "The PiXed Curriculum (or How to Proceed when the curriculum disappears)" seen under the Deconstruction Frame. The Tagged Curriculum emerges as the central concept, representing a curriculum that is not static, but continuously reconfigures itself, refusing institutional fixity and operating in the outside, in the ephemerality, and in the act of its inscription. The thesis defends Art not as an accessory, but as the essence of curricular reinvention, a subversive practice that questions and erases established forms of knowledge and teaching. In the end, the research presents itself as a gesture of semantic insurgency, inviting to inhabit the unpredictable and to recognize knowledges that do not fit into the lesson plan, but that already exist in the world.

Como diferentes plataformas digitais têm (re)produzido as lesbianidades e sapatonices? Uma análise sobre a colonialidade de dados nos processos de plataformização de gênero e sexualidades

Título: Como diferentes plataformas digitais têm (re)produzido as lesbianidades e sapatonices? Uma análise sobre a colonialidade de dados nos processos de plataformização de gênero e sexualidades Autor(es): Motter, Julianna Paz Japiassu Primeiro Orientador: Natansohn, Leonor Graciela Abstract: This research maps the various ways in which digital platforms have operated in the (re)production of lesbian identities and “sapatonices” (a Brazilian Portuguese term referring to lesbian expressions and subjectivities), through documentation that accounts for how different platforms (re)produce lesbophobia while simultaneously helping to provide new notions, reinscriptions, and rearticulations of lesbian existence. To this end, the study also evaluates how processes of data coloniality and technological coloniality contribute to the intensification of semiotic-material discrimination against lesbians. The research addresses the impact of these processes on lesbians through the outputs of platforms originating in Silicon Valley and operating in Latin American countries, with an emphasis on Brazil, focusing specifically on Instagram, ChatGPT, and Google Search. These platforms were selected based on incidents and controversies reported by users, who denounced them as exhibiting lesbophobic expressions embedded in their structures. Through a theoretical framework grounded in decolonial perspectives (Anzaldúa, 2021; Lugones, 2014; Ricaurte, 2019; Quijano, 2000; Mignolo, 2014) and discussions on algorithmic bias (Buolamwini & Raji, 2019; Bucher, 2018; Noble, 2018; Silva, 2019, 2020a, 2020b, 2022), this study analyzes the entanglement between algorithmic bias and the coloniality of bodies, data, and platforms from the perspective of lesbian identities and “sapatonices”. Thus, the research also seeks to understand how algorithms and other agencies involved in digital platforms contribute to the dispositifs of sexuality and gender (Foucault, 2013).

O BRICS e o enfrentamento à mudança climática: um estudo da atuação do Novo Banco de Densenvolvimento

Título: O BRICS e o enfrentamento à mudança climática: um estudo da atuação do Novo Banco de Densenvolvimento Autor(es): Marques, Márcio Lopes Primeiro Orientador: Vasconcelos, Jonnas Esmeraldo Marques de Abstract: The BRICS and its institutions are an unavoidable pole for debate and the resolution of global challenges due to its economic strength, the size of its populations, its material resources, its territories, and the biodiversity under its responsibility. The climate change is inserted in this context in an acute and urgent way, demanding from the group an assertive attitude that can integrate the legitimate demands of the Global South for prosperity with the pressing needs for climate change mitigation and adaptation. The New Development Bank (NDB), created by the BRICS but now with a membership not fully coinciding with its founding group, plays a relevant role in one of the main bottlenecks for the promotion of a just transition towards a low-carbon economy: climate finance. Linked since its foundation to the financing of infrastructure and sustainable development, the NDB can become a key institution for funding climate projects in the Global South while not reproducing practices that undermine the sovereignty and the politic and economic autonomy of its client countries. However, a question arises and is the reason of this research: How have the NDB’s actions actually been conducted in the global effort towards mitigation and adaptation to climate change, and what have its results been so far? In order to answer this question, this investigation conducts a dual analysis — documentary and bibliographical — which aims to: (1) analyze the bank’s strategy and methodology on climate matters and their adequacy for achieving the global goals established for climate mitigation and adaptation; (2) examine the effectiveness of the NDB’s actions in relation to its self-declared strategy of financing projects that contribute to combating climate change; and (3) discuss the potentialities and limitations of the bank’s role as an instrument of climate action within the ecosocialist theoretical framework. To achieve these goals, the present work is structured in three steps: the first focuses on data presented by UN climate reports and other relevant institutions, providing an overview of the global climatic situation and problematizing its causes and solutions from an ecosocialist point of view; the second analyzes the trajectory of international climate governance and the role of the Global South, BRICS, and Multilateral Development Banks (MDBs) in this construction; the third examines the NDB’s performance as a source of climate finance, its innovations, contradictions, challenges, and possibilities. This research concludes that, despite the institution’s considerable potential, the NDB’s climate initiatives and results are timid and insufficient to meet the bank’s own strategic objectives, reproducing a liberal pattern of financing projects with climatically ambiguous and poorly transparent impacts, without breaking with the capitalist paradigm of anti-ecological exploitation of natural resources and environments. Finally, comments and suggestions are made on how to confront these contradictions and how BRICS and the NDB can act in line with their potential as instruments to overcome the ways of life, production, and consumption that have been leading humanity into an era of polycrisis and the planet Earth to the brink of its sixth mass extinction.

Título: Estudo Entomológico na principal área endêmica de Leishmaniose Tegumentar Americana do estado da Bahia, Autor(es): Cova, Bruno Oliveira Primeiro Orientador: Schriefer, Nicolaus Albert Borges Abstract: Leishmaniasis is an infectious disease of significant clinical and epidemiological diversity, with a wide geographical distribution in the world. Bahia is one of the most affected Brazilian states for American Tegumentary Leishmaniasis (ATL). We present this doctoral thesis in three articles that aim to describe the results of an entomological study carried out in the main endemic area of ATL in the state of Bahia. The Article 1 – “Diversity and natural infection of phlebotomine sand flies (Diptera, Psychodidae) in an endemic area of American Tegumentary Leishmaniasis in southern Bahia, Brazil.” – consists of a prospective study of the phlebotomine fauna found in the homes of index ATL-cases, recently diagnosed in a region with high endemicity, in southern Bahia. The Article 2 – “Invertebrate-Derived DNA (iDNA) to identify sand flies’ bloodmeal: A Molecular Approach to Identifying Hosts in Blood-Feeding Vectors.” – is a continuation of the results of the Entomological Survey presented in Article 1, where we used the metabarcoding methodology to identify food sources of preferentially engorged sand flies found in these residences of newly diagnosed cases of ATL. The Article 3 – “Empowering people with Cutaneous Leishmaniasis (ECLIPSE): The Brazilian experience with in-formation and knowledge exchange training courses to primary care and educational professionals from endemic areas in southern Bahia, Brazil.” – brings the experience of the ECLIPSE/BRASIL project team in building the In-formation and knowledge exchange training courses about Cutaneous Leishmaniasis which, from an intersectoral perspective, included professionals of health, education and the environment. Our findings suggest that in areas affected by outbreaks of ATL in southern Bahia, there are high proportions of infected sand flies involving a variety of proven and putative vector species. Analyzing iDNA through metabarcoding paired with Next Generation Sequence to determine the food sources of sand flies has allowed us to accurately sample a large diversity of vertebrate species. The experiences gained through the ECLIPSE project showed that the effectiveness of our health interventions presupposes that the exchanges and relationships that supported community engagement were reciprocal, equal and mutually beneficial for the communities and the research teams.

Questões sociocientíficas na formação inicial de licenciandos em química: possibilidades e desafios formativos à implementação na educação básica

Título: Questões sociocientíficas na formação inicial de licenciandos em química: possibilidades e desafios formativos à implementação na educação básica Autor(es): Sousa, Ivanessa Castro de Primeiro Orientador: Hussein, Fabiana Roberta Gonçalves e Silva Abstract: In recent years, the need for scientific literacy among basic education students has been discussed, given changes in science teaching. Educational guidance documents make this point for scientific literacy substantially in their articles, regulatory laws, and teaching regulations. Socioscientific issues (SSI) are configured in this panorama as an alternative for achieving this literacy, since scientific education mediated by the SSI teaching methodology addresses the relationships between science, technology, society and environment (STSE), making it possible to overcome the technical and banking education still present in the school context. However, the training of teachers based on this epistemological approach has proven to be a gap in teacher training programs, representing one of the factors hindering the achievement of the desired objective: critical scientific development. The approaches in the literature have presented a favorable epistemological framework for these initiatives. However, through systematic research (state of knowledge), we identified a gap in approaches to the QSC perspective using CPA dimensions. We analyzed national journals to identify how these concepts and methodologies are being addressed using this theoretical framework. In this context, this thesis proposes an intervention with a didactic sequence in the Chemistry teacher training course at the State University of Rio Grande do Norte (UERN) based on the STSE assumptions; of the SSI methodology from the Conceptual, Procedural and Attitudinal (CPA) dimensions of the contents. During this didactic intervention, two questionnaires were applied, in which we identified the students' perceptions about the possibility of using SSI in their teaching practices according to Bardin's Content Analysis (2011). In addition to the questionnaires, the analysis included lesson plans developed by undergraduate Chemistry students. These plans identified key elements for excellent teaching performance based on SSI, such as case studies or stories, CPA learning objectives, and guiding questions. An implementation of these concepts, SSI based on the CPA dimensions, was carried out in a basic education school with high school students in the school science fair project with the theme of climate change, using a comic book as teaching material. The results indicate that there is little academic literature conceptualizing SSI, considering the CPA dimensions with guidelines for pedagogical actions. There is also a gap in teacher training for undergraduate Chemistry programs, as the conceptual aspects of SSI and CPA dimensions are not covered. Implementing SSI in basic education enables comprehensive training in science teaching. The interpretations and evaluations of the results obtained in this thesis contribute to the implementation of these assumptions in initial teacher training and the achievement of critical principles in their pedagogical practices. The proposal of this research emphasizes the referenced dimensions of ethical, political, human, social and environmental nature so that citizenship training enables critical decision-making in everyday life and, thus, advances discussions and implementations in the training context of Chemistry/Science teachers with the foundation and use of SSI’s in the educational field.

Título: Farinha de larvas da mosca-soldado-negro (hermetia illucens) em dietas para o camarão-da-amazônia (macrobrachium amazonicum) Autor(es): Anjos, Rafael Queiroz dos Primeiro Orientador: Silva, Rodrigo Fortes da Abstract: Investigates the feasibility of black soldier fly larvae meal (Hermetia illucens) as a partial replacement for fishmeal in diets for Amazon river prawn (Macrobrachium amazonicum), aiming to promote more sustainable aquaculture practices. The study was divided into two main chapters: the first evaluated the effects of black soldier fly larvae meal on growth performance, body composition and Vibrio spp. microbiota in the hepatopâncreas and intestine of the prawns, while the second analyzed the impact of partial fishmeal replacement on zootechnical performance, digestive enzymes activity, feeding preference and resistance of M. amazonicum to V. parahaemolyticus. The results demonstrated that replacing 25% of fishmeal with black Soldier fly larvae meal provided better zootechnical performance, with significant improvements in weight gain, specific growth rate, and feed efficiency, along with reduced loads of pathogenic Vibrio spp. Digestive enzyme quantification revealed optimized protease, lipase and amylase activities, indicating metabolic adaptation to the diet. The inclusion of black soldier fly larvae meal in the diets enhanced M. amazonicum resistance to V. parahaemolyticus. In conclusion, black soldier fly larvae meal represents a viable and sustainable alternative for M. amazonicum nutrition, contributing to reduced dependence on fishmeal while improving prawn health.

This study aimed to analyze how play is used in occupational therapy practice with children who have low vision. It is an exploratory study with a qualitative approach, with data collection carried out through semi‑structured interviews with three occupational therapists working in the field. The analysis was conducted based on the content analysis technique, and the results were organized into three thematic categories: playing in visual habilitation and rehabilitation: meanings and practices of occupational therapists; collaboration with families: challenges faced and shared responsibilities in the therapeutic process; and appreciation of Occupational Therapy in visual rehabilitation: challenges for recognition as a specialty. The research sought to contribute to the knowledge about the importance of play in visual habilitation and rehabilitation. Among the results obtained, the importance of evaluating functional vision for developing the intervention plan stood out, as well as the need for a critical professional practice based on evidence and for family co‑responsibility during the child’s therapeutic process. The relevance of this study lies in the need to deepen investigations about visual stimulation and the use of play as a therapeutic tool in this area, understanding the challenges and opportunities present in clinical practice, and generating subsidies for the development of future research and interventions.
