Introduction: The Lean Six Sigma method is the integration between Lean Manufacturing and Six Sigma, two methods that have been adding value to the productive processes, generating the best results, because they provide tools to assist in the management of the indicators of the companies that use them.
A comparative study was carried out between the Simple Linear Regression and Decision Tree techniques in the evaluation of the impacts caused by the generation of harmonics, in the distribution network, in a medium voltage substation. Data collection was carried out through a measurement campaign in a 13.8 kV substation that feeds a portion of the companies in the industrial district of the city of Manaus.
The main objective of this study is to understand the impact that public spending, carried out by municipalities in the south of Santa Catarina (SC), has on economic growth. The study considered the efficiency of municipal spending on the region’s product and productive infrastructure in its analysis. Despite the theme being relevant in matters of efficiency in public management, there was a scarcity and inexistence of studies in Brazil and Santa Catarina. The ordinary least squares method was used for comparison purposes, obtaining the panel data approach.
Analyzing the phenomenon of migrants in Latin America has become relevant especially due to the current worsening of political and socioeconomic issues in some countries. The path chosen for the analysis of this phenomenon was to evaluate the literature on migration in Latin America found in the Web of Science Science (WoS) database - Clarivate Analytics, proposing a reflection on the contemporary scenario on this theme.

A cross-sectional study was carried out with data collected through an online questionnaire that was self-completed by the participants. A total of 113 university students were included in the study, all of them of childbearing age and during the pandemic period.
Plant tissue culture allows the clonal propagation of Coffea canephora on a large scale through somatic embryogenesis. The aim of this study was to optimize the conditions for the induction of somatic embryogenesisin leaves of the Robusta variety. The physiological stage of the leaves – drain or source; the use of the surrounding area ofprimary or secondary veins; and the position of the explants – abaxial or adaxial surface in contact with the culture medium were evaluated.
Clonal propagation of Coffea canephora varieties is feasible through somatic embryogenesis. The aim of this study was to evaluate the induction of somatic embryos from leaves of C. canephora, Robusta and Conilon varieties, in relation to different concentrations of three growth regulators. The explants were inoculated in a MS culture medium with 2iP (isopentanyladenine), IBA (indolebutyric acid) and BA (6-benzylaminopurine), in factorial combinations, at concentrations of 1.0; 2.0; 3.0; 4.0 and 5.0 mg L-1.
As a result of aging, the elderly become more prone to pathological developments, increasing drug consumption. This increases the possibility of errors related to drugs, such as interactions and adverse reactions. The pharmacotherapeutic follow-up has become indispensable in the care of the polymedicated elderly.
A obesidade se caracteriza pelo acúmulo excessivo de tecido adiposo em um nível que compromete a saúde. Esta condição tem consequências sistêmicas, e pode afetar a tolerância ao exercício destes indivíduos. Desta forma, o objetivo do presente trabalho foi realizar uma revisão narrativa da literatura sobre a influência da obesidade na tolerância ao exercício. Foi realizada uma busca nas bases de dados Pubmed e Scielo utilizando os descritores: Obesity AND Exercise tolerance; Obesity AND Exercise Capacity; Obesity AND Functional Capacity; Obesity AND Cardiovascular Capacity.
