Trata-se de um artigo de opinião sobre competências básicas para valorização do profissional de enfermagem. A enfermagem é permeada por imagens estereotipadas e primitivas, percepções errôneas que derivam da história da profissão e que se perpetuam até os dias de hoje. A importância desse reconhecimento encontra-se, entre outros, na influência que a valorização da profissão, em suas variadas dimensões, tem no desempenho profissional. Sugere-se a implementação de três competências básicas: o conhecimento em enfermagem, atitude profissional e autoconfiança.

Silk is a natural bio polymer which contains many multifunctional management and administrative function that influence on human body like brain and different anatomy of body and osteotomy managements. There is a vast unknown challenges with silk and its performance till now on going research for future. In this paper, I attempted to show brain influence through modification of silk fibers by electro -spinning process and that will take a signal from brain and connect this signal to the anatomy of human body to work or make movement for paralyzed patients.

The Balanced Scorecard (BSC) is a tool created by Kaplan and Norton in the 1990s, whose objective is to assist organizations in visualizing the company as a whole, providing strategic business management from four perspectives: financial, customers, internal processes and learning/knowledge. The aim of this article was to analyze how, and if, the tool is used in small Brazilian companies. To do so, the quantitative research employed by Giannopoulos et al. applied in companies located in Cyprus and the United Kingdom in 2013 was used as basis.

Text of annotation. Factor analysis of three-hour dynamics from 01.01.2012 to 31.10.2018 of four meteorological parameters: atmospheric pressure; air temperature; relative humidity; dew point temperature was carried out by the method of identification (weather station Yoshkar-Ola, Russia, WMO_ID=27485).Power selection when accounting periods of the growing season of birch from 01.05 till 30.09 made 8558 instead 19713 lines in comparison with the continuous series, while there have been significant changes in the laws.

The offer of coworking spaces have been growing in Brazil in recent years, due to the search for cost reduction and collaborative work. These spaces allow the shared use of resources, ideas and services. The present study targeted the identification of the fundamental elements for a coworking space, in order to create an innovative and enterpreneurial environment.

Several bacteria found in nature produce α-α-amylases. This research evaluated the presence of thermotolerant α-amylases in rhizobacteria isolated from legume nodules to use for the conversion of starch from amylaceous plants. Forty rhizobacteria were tested for the presence of these α-amylases, as well as for the thermotolerance characteristic. Nineteen bacteria produced an amylolytic halo and eleven were showed to be thermophilic.

The "Pro-Alcohol" program in Brazil is based on the use of sugarcane and, since the harvest is carried out once a year, there is a period of inactivity between harvests. As a result, several mills began to use in the off-season, starch producing species for alcohol production. In order to use these plant species, it is necessary the use of α-amylases. The search for thermotolerant amylases in bacteria isolated from Amazonian soils is an important strategy to reduce and even stop importing these enzymes.

The plant species Plumeriarubra L. belongs to the family Apocynaceae, which originates from Central America and is widely distributed in the tropical climate regions of the world, including Brazil, as well as in Asia and East Timor. This plant is popularly known as jasmine, jasmine-mango, frangipani, pagoda tree, or "ai Santo Antonio. Studies reveal some critical biological activities of your polar extract, such as antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, antitumor, and anticancer.

Objective: To estimate the prevalence and risk factors associated with Metabolic Syndrome of industry employees treated at an outpatient clinic in Vitória da Conquista-BA. Materials and Methods: A descriptive cross-sectional study with a quantitative approach was carried out, followed by an epidemiological character in which the variables (factor and effect) were observed at the same historical moment. A sample of 150 collaborators was used where biochemical, sociodemographic profile and association with comorbidities were observed.

The discussion on education within the Brazilian Prison System is strongly connected with the social function of the school, once the criminal policy is directly related to the failure of the prison system, taking into account its primary objectives, viz. resocialize and insert its subjects into society, without the prospect of relapsing into the prison system.
