INTRODUCTION: This study aimed to determine the prevalence of vertical HIV-1 transmission in the western region of the State of São Paulo, Brazil. METHODS: The study analyzed the medical records of HIV-1-infected mothers and infant pairs living in the municipalities of São Paulo Regional Health Departments DRS II (Araçatuba) and DRS XI (Presidente Prudente). From March 2001 to March 2006, blood samples were col...
Com o objetivo de descrever a percepção das gestantes adolescentes em relação ao apoio recebido durante a fase gestacional, realizou-se este estudo exploratório-descritivo de abordagem qualitativa. Participaram 12 adolescentes primigestas, frequentadoras dos serviços ambulatórios de saúde de Passo Fundo (RS). Por meio de entrevistas semiestruturadas, genogramas e ecomapas, obtiveram-se os dados analisados pela ...
Este artigo apresenta uma introdução ao paradigma de programação orientada a agentes com base em uma linguagem particular chamada AgentSpeak(L). Exemplos de agentes programados nessa linguagem são fornecidos para facilitar a compreensão da linguagem. Conceitos básicos de sistemas multiagente e agentes inteligentes são dados de forma a fornecer ao leitor um material auto-contido. O artigo apresenta ainda um apan...
The purpose of this study was to characterize Candida isolates from crop of parrots. Forty baby parrots of genus Amazona, species aestiva and amazonica that were apprehended from wild animal traffic were used: 18 presented ingluvitis and 22 other alterations, but showing general debilitation. Samples were seeded on Sabouraud dextrose agar with chloramphenicol after be obtained by the introduction of urethral pr...
A composição de Hybotinae do Parque Nacional do Jaú foi estudada. Dezesseis espécies de Hybotinae são registradas e cinco espécies novas de Syneches Walker são descritas e ilustradas: Syneches hispidus sp. nov., S. jauensis sp. nov., S. longiflagellatus sp. nov., S. rafaeli sp. nov. e S. vidali sp. nov.
OBJETIVO: Determinar a prevalência e a mortalidade de sepse neonatal por bactérias Gram negativas produtoras de beta-lactamase de espectro estendido (ESBL) em Unidade de Cuidados Intensivos Neonatal. MÉTODOS: Trata-se de um estudo retrospectivo e descritivo de 236 recém-nascidos com suspeita de sepse entre 2000 e 2004. O diagnóstico de sepse foi confirmado pela presença de sinais clínicos associada à positivida...
Law information retrieval systems use law ontologies to represent semantic objects, to associate them with law documents and to make inferences about them. A number of law ontologies have been proposed in the literature, what shows the variety of approaches pointing to the need of matching systems. We present a proposal based on argumentation to match law ontologies, as an approach to be considered for this pro...
Ontology mapping has a key importance for applications such as information retrieval, database integration, and agent-communication. This paper presents an Argumentation Framework, with confidence degrees associated to the arguments, to combine ontology mapping approaches. Our agents apply individual mapping algorithms and cooperate in order to exchange their local results (arguments). Based on their preferences...
This paper proposes a cooperative approach for composite ontology mapping. We first present an extended classification of automated ontology matching and propose an automatic composite solution for the matching problem based on cooperation. In our proposal, agents apply individual mapping algorithms and cooperate in order to change their individual results. We assume that the approaches are complementary to each ...
In order to obtain interoperability in open MultiAgent Systems, agents need to agree on the basis of different ontologies. In this paper we formally define mapping as correspondences betwenn queries over ontologies. Individual mappings are computed by specialized agents using different mapping approaches. Next, these agents use argumentation to exchange their local results, in order to agree on the mappings. Ba...
