Abstract: This study was conducted in 4 villages in India during the hottest and driest season of the year to determine whether exclusively breast-fed infants need additional water under extremely hot and dry climatic conditions. The ambient temperature was 35-40°C and the relative humidity 10-35%, except during the early morning hours. 63 urine samples were collected from 31 infants below 6 months of age and 28 samples from 13 infants aged 6-10 months, all of whom were receiving nothing but breast milk. Specific gravity (and corresponding osmolality) of urine samples from the younger group ranged from 1.004 (66 mosmol/litre) to 1.036 (1234 mosmol/litre), with a mean of 1.011 (322 mosmol/litre). For the older group the range was 1.005 (103 mosmol/litre) to 1.029 (978 mosmol/litre) and the mean was 1.015 (468 mosmol/litre). These values are well below levels of urine concentrations known to be attainable by infants of corresponding ages. Thus, even under hotter and drier climatic conditions than have previously been studied, healthy exclusively breast-fed infants do not require additional water. Exclusive breast feeding for the first 4-6 months is therefore a reasonable public health recommendation; it is imperative in areas where contaminated drinking water may contribute to infant morbidity, diarrhoeal disease in particular.

Abstract: The objective of the present study is to show the development and the institutionalization of Information Science in Brazil, analyzing the degree of convergence between the scientific production-materialized in thesis and dissertations - and landmarks (Documento de Area da CAPES e Grupos Tematicos da ANCIB). Its empirical object is constituted of references data of thesis and dissertations of information science, analyzed using of scientometrics methodology. Finally, the thesis and dissertations present partial convergence with landmarks, and the information science necessities to surpass some challenges such as to diminish the high number of studies concerning the practice; to guarantee the production of theoretical and conceptual research, in detriment of the research that aims to solve concrete and focused problems, and to define the object of study of the area, avoiding its thematic dispersion and, moreover, promote greater index of growth of the Post-Graduation programs, mainly in relation to the courses of doctorate to guarantee its effective social and cognition institutionalization.

Abstract: This article reports a search’s analysis at the database Library and Information Science Abstracts, using the terms scientific communication and ontology. The objective was to analyze search’s possibilities in reference databases with emphasis on metadata standards and interoperability among systems. The methodology is exploratory and descriptive, documental and quant-qualitative; it employs the bibliometric soft wares Infotrans and Dataview for the analysis of the 129 obtained results in the bibliographic survey of data tabulation and analyses. It concludes that the databases and soft wares differ significantly, fact which demands strict standards of metadata to enable efficient and accurate results in searches as well as the utilization of bibliometric tools for analysis and discussion of obtained documents, in order to improve the quantitative indicators of scientific production.

Abstract: This study analyses the state of research on scientific communication in Brazil carried out between 1996 and 2006. It analyses this research by taking into consideration trends regarding approach, authorship, and the methodological options of the studies. It characterizes scientific production through the number of articles published per journal, the authors (gender, institution), the year of publication and typology of the article, and the methodological aspects of the studies. It then carries out a content analysis of the scientific articles, uses documentary research techniques and defines as its analytic corpus the Brazilian journals in the field of Information Science (Ciencia da Informacao, Datagramazero, Encontros Bibli, Informacao & Sociedade, Perspectivas em Ciencia da Informacao, Transinformacao). It goes on to demonstrate the accumulation of knowledge on scientific communication, which has contributed to constituting a specialized field of study and research in the area of Information Science in Brazil, taking into consideration the number of articles (148) and the number of authors (238). It is found that 96 (64.86%) of these articles were identified as descriptions of scientific investigations according to the criteria defined in the study, leading to the conclusion that the most common areas of study are documentary research, descriptive studies; followed by the treatment of quantitative data; the use of bibliometric techniques and citation analysis; concerning the research thematic the most common areas were studies of channels, vehicles, cycles and models of communication (including evaluation of journals and information sources).
