ABSTRACT Strawberry cultivation requires the use of cultivars adapted to the temperature and photoperiod conditions of the production region. The objective of this work was to evaluate cultivars and advanced selections of strawberry on productive performance and fruit quality, under the conditions of South Plateau of Santa Catarina State. The experiment was carried out in the municipality of Lages, in the 2016/2017 growing season. The cultivation system used was in the soil, in beds covered with black polyethylene film. The cultivars Camino Real, Benicia and Pircinque, and the selection CE 56 obtained the highest yields, above to 30 t ha-1. Benicia, Camino Real and Monterey, in turn, obtained the fruits with higher average fresh weight, around 24 g fruit-1. In the selections CE 51, CE 56, FRF 57.6, LAM 119.1, FRF 104.1, FRF PA 109.2 and the cultivars Benicia and Monterey the fruits of better quality were achieved, expressed by values of soluble solids / titratable acidity ratio above to 13. The cultivars Camino Real, Benicia and Pircinque, and the selection CE 56 performed as the most adapted to the region of study, among the genotypes evaluated.

RESUMO Objetivo: Avaliar a qualidade de vida em idosos portadores de marca-passo e apneia obstrutiva do sono (AOS). Métodos: Estudo de corte transversal com idosos (idade ≥ 60 anos) portadores de marca-passo cardíaco. A variável dependente foi qualidade de vida, avaliada por meio do Medical Outcomes Study 36-item Short-Form Health Survey (SF-36). Dados sociodemográficos e clínicos foram analisados como variáveis independentes, entre os quais ansiedade e depressão (por meio da Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale), assim como presença de AOS (definida como um índice de apneia-hipopneia ≥ 15 eventos/h). Pacientes com déficits cognitivos/neurológicos ou descompensação cardíaca foram excluídos. Resultados: A amostra foi composta por 72 pacientes, 17 dos quais (23,6%) apresentaram AOS - 9 homens (52,9%). A média de idade foi de 72,3 ± 9,3 anos. Não houve associações de presença de AOS com sexo (p = 0,132), idade (p = 0,294) e índice de massa corpórea (p = 0,790). Não foram observadas diferenças dos domínios do SF-36 entre os grupos com e sem AOS. Em relação à ansiedade, 14 pacientes (19,4%) apresentaram sintomas moderados ou graves, dos quais apenas 3 (21,4%) tinham AOS (p = 0,89 vs. sem AOS). No tocante à depressão, 12 pacientes (16,6%) apresentaram sintomas moderados ou graves, dos quais 2 (16,6%) tinham AOS (p = 0,73 vs. sem AOS). Conclusões: Nesta amostra em idosos portadores de marca-passo, a presença de AOS não foi associada a qualidade de vida e sintomas de ansiedade e depressão.

ABSTRACT Objective: To evaluate quality of life in elderly patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) who have a pacemaker. Methods: This was a cross-sectional study involving elderly patients (≥ 60 years of age) with a pacemaker. The dependent variable was quality of life, as evaluated with the Medical Outcomes Study 36-item Short-Form Health Survey (SF-36). Sociodemographic and clinical parameters, including anxiety and depression (Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale score), as well as the presence of OSA (defined as an apnea-hypopnea index ≥ 15 events/h), were analyzed as independent variables. Patients with cognitive/neurological deficits or decompensated heart failure were excluded. Results: We evaluated 72 patients, 17 (23.6%) of whom presented OSA. Of those 17 patients, 9 (52.9%) were male. The mean age was 72.3 ± 9.3 years. A diagnosis of OSA was not associated with gender (p = 0.132), age (p = 0.294), or body mass index (p = 0.790). There were no differences between the patients with OSA and those without, in terms of the SF-36 domain scores. Fourteen patients (19.4%) presented moderate or severe anxiety. Of those 14 patients, only 3 (21.4%) had OSA (p = 0.89 vs. no OSA). Twelve patients (16.6%) had moderate or severe depression. Of those 12 patients, only 2 (16.6%) had OSA (p = 0.73 vs. no OSA). Conclusions: In elderly patients with a pacemaker, OSA was not found to be associated with quality of life or with symptoms of anxiety or depression.

Este artigo ressalta o papel da imprensa e o da polícia ante a denúncia de um plano de revolta escrava. Planejado para ocorrer em meio às comemorações em louvor a Sant’Anna, no dia 27 de julho de 1884, em São Matheus, norte da Província do Espírito Santo, com a finalidade de promover a emancipação geral dos escravos do município. Ao longo do século XIX, os escravos aproveitavam o momento das comemorações religiosas para planejar grandes revoltas. Os fatos verificados em São Matheus elucidam um pouco mais este costume, bem como o papel da imprensa, ao ocultar os eventos capazes de promover o pânico na sociedade da época.

This article highlights the role played by the press and the police upon learning about a slaves’ planned rebellion scheduled to take place during the celebrations in honor of Saint Anne on July 27, 1884 in the county of São Matheus, in the northern area of the province of Espírito Santo, a revolt intended to promote general slave emancipation in the county. Throughout the nineteenth century slaves were wont to take advantage of religious celebrations to carry out massive insurrections. The events which took place in São Matheus help throw some more light into both this practice and the role played by the press in concealing facts that might stir up panic in the society of the time.

Cet article fait ressortir le rôle de la presse et de la police face aux dénonciations d’un plan de révolte des esclaves dont le déroulement aurait été prévu en pleine célébration de Sant’Anna, le 27 juillet 1884 à São Matheus, nord de la province de Espírito Santo, avec le but de permettre l’émancipation générale des esclaves de la municipalité. Au cours du XIXème siècle, les esclaves profitèrent du moment des festivités religieuses pour organiser de vastes soulèvements. Les faits survenus à São Matheus nous éclairent un peu sur ces pratiques de même que sur le rôle de la presse désireuse d’occulter des événements propres à favoriser une panique générale dans la société de l’époque.
