Racismo e abismo social: um estudo discursivo-crítico
español Más allá de la comunicación, el lenguaje puede servir para librar disputas por el poder, construir identidades, reestructurar hegemonías y consolidar ideologías. Este artículo investiga las representaciones discursivas movilizadas en un artículo de opinión publicado en el periódico O Estado do Maranhão, que problematiza la naturalización del racismo antinegro en Brasil. Para ello, se fundamenta en los presupuestos del Análisis Crítico del Discurso (ACD) de Norman Fairclough (2001, 2003).
Computer Science > Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition
Artistic Text Recognition (ATR) remains challenging because word images often combine decorative fonts, curved layouts, object-like characters, clutter, and severe distortions. This paper studies WordArt-V1.5 as a standardized benchmark for this setting and evaluates recent scene and artistic text recognizers under a common protocol.
Where does technological change come from?
español Tradicionalmente se ha demarcado un enfrentamiento, dentro de los estudios CTS entre los enfoques deterministas y los enfoques constructivistas, que no obedece realmente a la verdad. En este sentido, la historia del ordenador personal muestra una especial interacción entre ciencia tecnología y sociedad. Es posible alcanzar un mejor análisis de esta historia combinando ciertos enfoques constructivistas con un grado de determinismo tecnológico.

The Body, the Brain, the Environment, and Parkinson’s Disease
Twenty years ago, Braak and colleagues postulated that Parkinson’s disease (PD) begins outside the brain through “neuroinvasion” by an exogenous, unknown pathogen [1]. In the seminal paper, they indicated that the neuropathology of PD begins simultaneously in two sites: the dorsal motor nucleus of the vagus nerve and the olfactory system (olfactory bulb and anterior olfactory nucleus).

Worlding with the Creal: Autonomous Intelligence and Philosophical Practice
1. Introduction The perennial ideal of “philosophical health”, in practice, involves a critical, creative, and embodied examination of one’s existence, beliefs, and values (de Miranda 2022), as well as the existence of others. It involves actively reflecting about integrity, self-consistency, ethics, the human condition, and beyond, such that one may be closer to living a meaningful and flourishing life.
Impact of dentofacial deformity on the chance of being hired for a job
1 Introduction Facial features have been of great interest in several areas of knowledge due to the ability of human beings to process, recognize, and extract information from other people’s faces (Little, 2014), playing an important role in social life. In this context, the smile is frequently the first characteristic to be noticed and evaluated (Didier et al., 2019; Almedlej et al., 2020).

Effects of yoga on impulsivity in patients with and without mental disorders: a systematic review - BMC Psychiatry
The review protocol included only RCTs, the need for comparison groups and trials comparing intervention strategies made a revision process restrictive, but with consistent results and impressions. Few studies have many different strategies of Yoga, with different amounts of sessions, and strategies to measure different domains of impulsivity. So, there is moderate heterogeneity in a few studies to have confidence to say if it is advantageous to improve impulsivity.

Although the country has shown a reduction of cases in the last decades, in 2021 it reported over 139,000 malaria cases. One major malaria control strategy implemented in Brazil is the “Malaria Supporters Project”, which has been active since 2012 and is directed to municipalities responsible for most Brazil’s cases.
Low-dose inhalation exposure to trichloroethylene induces dopaminergic neurodegeneration in rodents
Trichloroethylene (TCE) is one of the most pervasive environmental contaminants in the world and is associated with Parkinson disease (PD) risk. Experimental models in rodents show that TCE is selectively toxic to dopaminergic neurons at high doses of ingestion, however, TCE is a highly volatile toxicant, and the primary pathway of human exposure is inhalation.

Trichloroethylene: An Invisible Cause of Parkinson’s Disease?
Abstract The etiologies of Parkinson’s disease (PD) remain unclear. Some, such as certain genetic mutations and head trauma, are widely known or easily identified. However, these causes or risk factors do not account for the majority of cases. Other, less visible factors must be at play. Among these is a widely used industrial solvent and common environmental contaminant little recognized for its likely role in PD: trichloroethylene (TCE).

Preventing Parkinson’s Disease: An Environmental Agenda
Abstract Fueled by aging populations and continued environmental contamination, the global burden of Parkinson’s disease (PD) is increasing. The disease, or more appropriately diseases, have multiple environmental and genetic influences but no approved disease modifying therapy. Additionally, efforts to prevent this debilitating disease have been limited. As numerous environmental contaminants (e.g., pesticides, metals, industrial chemicals) are implicated in PD, disease prevention is possible.
