ABSTRACT Lettuce (Lactuca sativa) is the most economically important leafy vegetable in Brazil, with the crisp type being the most popular among producers. However, in regions with hot climates, lettuce has production limitations due to bolting, requiring knowledge on the behavior of cultivars available on the market. Thus, the objective of the present study was to characterize the performance of crisp lettuce cultivars in terms of their productive, physiological, and postharvest quality aspects when grown under hydroponic cultivation and high temperature conditions. The assay was performed in a greenhouse and the plants were grown in a hydroponic system of DFT type. The average temperature during the experiment was 30.33 °C. The experimental design used was completely randomized with nine treatments (Veneranda, Cristina, Olinda, Mônica, Cinderela, Grand Rapids, Itapuã Super, Crocantela, and Simpson Black Seed), with four replications. The cultivars were analyzed in terms of their productive, physiological, and postharvest quality performances. The Olinda and Cristina cultivars showed the best performance in growth, physiological, and postharvest variables. However, the cultivars had distinct sensory characteristics. Bolting negatively affected gas exchange, production, and postharvest quality of lettuce cultivars Veneranda, Mônica, Grand Rapids, and Cinderela. In addition, it was observed that the pigment content was not determinant for the expression of bolting. Therefore, this study recommends the use of cultivars Olinda and Cristina for the hydroponic cultivation under high temperature conditions.

RESUMO A alface (Lactuca sativa) é a hortaliça folhosa de maior importância econômica no Brasil, sendo o tipo crespa a mais popular entre os produtores. Entretanto, em regiões de clima quente, a alface apresenta limitações de produção devido ao pendoamento precoce, exigindo o conhecimento do comportamento das cultivares disponíveis no mercado. Assim, o objetivo do presente estudo foi caracterizar o desempenho de cultivares de alface crespa quanto aos aspectos produtivos, fisiológicos e de qualidade pós-colheita, cultivadas em condições de cultivo hidropônico e alta temperatura. O ensaio foi conduzido em condição de casa de vegetação, sendo as plantas cultivadas em sistema hidropônico tipo DFT. A temperatura média durante o experimento foi de 30,33 °C. O delineamento experimental utilizado foi o inteiramente casualizado com nove tratamentos (Veneranda, Cristina, Olinda, Mônica, Cinderela, Grand Rapids, Itapuã Super, Crocantela e Simpson Black Seed) e quatro repetições. As cultivares foram analisadas quanto ao seu desempenho produtivo, fisiológico e de qualidade pós-colheita. As cultivares Olinda e Cristina apresentaram melhor desempenho nos parâmetros de crescimento, fisiológicos e pós-colheita. Entretanto, estas cultivares apresentaram características sensoriais distintas. Verificou-se que o pendoamento precoce afetou negativamente as trocas gasosas, a produção e a qualidade pós-colheita das cultivares de alface Veneranda, Mônica, Grand Rapids e Cinderela. Além disso, observou-se que o teor de pigmentos não foi determinante para a expressão do pendoamento. Portanto, este estudo recomenda o uso das cultivares Olinda e Cristina para o cultivo hidropônico em condições de alta temperatura.

ABSTRACT The genus Psidium is recognized for its economic value and the species that produce essential oils with notable biological activities. This study investigated the characteristics of the essential oil from the leaves of Psidium myrtoides and Psidium cattleyanum under different drying temperatures. We aimed to understand how drying temperatures affect the yield and composition of the essential oil, as well as its biological activity. The oils obtained from the leaves of P. myrtoides and P. cattleyanum dried in an oven at 40°C showed the highest yields (0.86% and 1.07%, respectively). β-caryophyllene was the major compound in all essential oils of P. myrtoides and P. cattleyanum, except in the oil extracted from P. myrtoides leaves dried at room temperature, where the major compound was α-bisabolol (14.46%). Different phytotoxic effects were observed using the emulsion of these oils in bioassays with Lactuca sativa and Sorghum bicolor, which were associated with the chemical composition and synergy of the identified compounds. The essential oil emulsion from leaves dried at room temperature of both species showed greater phytotoxic activity in the bioassays. Thus, optimizing drying conditions to maximize yield and synergy of compounds from the essential oils of P. myrtoides and P. cattleyanum is an important step in developing environmentally friendly natural agrochemicals. activities P 40C C 40 0.86% 086 0 86 (0.86 107 1 07 1.07% respectively. respectively . respectively) βcaryophyllene β caryophyllene αbisabolol α bisabolol 14.46%. 1446 14.46% 14 46 (14.46%) bicolor Thus agrochemicals 4 0.86 08 8 (0.8 10 1.07 144 14.46 (14.46% 0.8 (0. 1.0 14.4 (14.46 0.

RESUMO O gênero Psidium é reconhecido pelo seu valor econômico e por suas espécies produtoras de óleos essenciais, com notáveis atividades biológicas. Este estudo investigou as características do óleo essencial das folhas de Psidium myrtoides e Psidium cattleyanum sob diferentes temperaturas de secagem. O objetivo foi entender como as temperaturas de secagem afetam o rendimento e a composição do óleo essencial, além de sua atividade biológica, utilizando bioensaios com Lactuca sativa e Sorghum bicolor para avaliar os efeitos fitotóxicos. Os óleos obtidos das folhas de P. myrtoides e P. cattleyanum secas em estufa a 40°C apresentaram os maiores rendimentos, sendo 0,86% e 1,07%, respectivamente. O β-cariofileno foi o composto majoritário com maior área relativa em todos os óleos essenciais de P. myrtoides e P. cattleyanum, exceto, no óleo extraído de folhas secas em temperatura ambiente de P. myrtoides, cujo composto majoritário foi o alfa-bisabolol (14,46%). Assim como a alteração do perfil químico dos óleos essenciais, houve diferentes efeitos fitotóxicos utilizando a emulsão desses óleos. Esses efeitos, foram associados a composição química e a sinergia destes compostos. A emulsão de óleo essencial de folhas secas à temperatura ambiente de ambas as espécies mostrou maior atividade fitotóxica nos bioensaios. Assim, a otimização das condições de secagem para maximizar o rendimento e a sinergia dos compostos dos óleos essenciais de P. myrtoides e P. cattleyanum é um passo importante no desenvolvimento de agroquímicos naturais e sustentáveis. biológicas biológica P 40C C 40 rendimentos 086 0 86 0,86 107 1 07 1,07% respectivamente βcariofileno β cariofileno exceto alfabisabolol alfa bisabolol 14,46%. 1446 14,46% . 14 46 (14,46%) sustentáveis 4 08 8 0,8 10 1,07 144 14,46 (14,46% 0, 1,0 14,4 (14,46 1, 14, (14,4 (14, (14 (1 (

Objective: To investigating the relationship between α-Klotho and FGF-23 with bone biochemical markers and bone density findings in extremely aged individuals. Methods: A total of 55 individuals with a mean age of 85.6 years were subjected to clinical, biochemical, and bone mineral density analyses and the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay-based detection of α-Klotho and FGF-23. The mean, standard deviation, median, and interquartile ranges of the sample values were determined, and Spearman's test for association assessments was used for statistical analysis. Results: The study participants expressed median FGF-23 and α-Klotho levels of 69.81 RU/mL (51.43 RU/mL) and 733.43 pg/mL (360.83 pg/mL), respectively. The majority of the participants possessed osteopenia (54.5%) and a vitamin D deficiency (57%). The 25-hydroxyvitamin D concentrations ranged between 7.1 and 47.5ng/mL, with a median of 18.1ng/mL. Conclusion: No substantial associations were discovered between α-Klotho and FGF-23 levels and bone density in the study participants.

ABSTRACT The limited temporal completeness and taxonomic accuracy of species lists, made available in a traditional manner in scientific publications, has always represented a problem. These lists are invariably limited to a few taxonomic groups and do not represent up-to-date knowledge of all species and classifications. In this context, the Brazilian megadiverse fauna is no exception, and the Catálogo Taxonômico da Fauna do Brasil (CTFB) (http://fauna.jbrj.gov.br/), made public in 2015, represents a database on biodiversity anchored on a list of valid and expertly recognized scientific names of animals in Brazil. The CTFB is updated in near real time by a team of more than 800 specialists. By January 1, 2024, the CTFB compiled 133,691 nominal species, with 125,138 that were considered valid. Most of the valid species were arthropods (82.3%, with more than 102,000 species) and chordates (7.69%, with over 11,000 species). These taxa were followed by a cluster composed of Mollusca (3,567 species), Platyhelminthes (2,292 species), Annelida (1,833 species), and Nematoda (1,447 species). All remaining groups had less than 1,000 species reported in Brazil, with Cnidaria (831 species), Porifera (628 species), Rotifera (606 species), and Bryozoa (520 species) representing those with more than 500 species. Analysis of the CTFB database can facilitate and direct efforts towards the discovery of new species in Brazil, but it is also fundamental in providing the best available list of valid nominal species to users, including those in science, health, conservation efforts, and any initiative involving animals. The importance of the CTFB is evidenced by the elevated number of citations in the scientific literature in diverse areas of biology, law, anthropology, education, forensic science, and veterinary science, among others. publications problem uptodate up date classifications context exception (CTFB http//fauna.jbrj.gov.br/, httpfaunajbrjgovbr http //fauna.jbrj.gov.br/ , jbrj gov br (http://fauna.jbrj.gov.br/) 2015 Brazil 80 specialists 1 2024 133691 133 691 133,69 125138 125 138 125,13 82.3%, 823 82 3 (82.3% 102000 102 000 102,00 7.69%, 769 7 69 (7.69% 11000 11 11,00 . 3,567 3567 567 (3,56 2,292 2292 2 292 (2,29 1,833 1833 833 (1,83 1,447 1447 447 (1,44 1000 1,00 831 (83 628 (62 606 (60 520 (52 50 users science health biology law anthropology education others http//fauna.jbrj.gov.br/ faunajbrjgovbr //fauna.jbrj.gov.br (http://fauna.jbrj.gov.br/ 201 8 202 13369 13 133,6 12513 12 125,1 82.3% (82.3 10200 10 00 102,0 7.69% 76 6 (7.69 1100 11,0 3,56 356 56 (3,5 2,29 229 29 (2,2 1,83 183 83 (1,8 1,44 144 44 (1,4 100 1,0 (8 62 (6 60 52 (5 5 http//fauna.jbrj.gov.br (http://fauna.jbrj.gov.br 20 1336 133, 1251 125, 82.3 (82. 1020 0 102, 7.69 (7.6 110 11, 3,5 35 (3, 2,2 22 (2, 1,8 18 (1, 1,4 14 4 ( 82.

ABSTRACT The thermal modification of wood is a process that alters its chemical composition, aiming to improve technological properties such as dimensional stability, reduction of equilibrium moisture content, homogeneity, or color. In this context, this study aimed to evaluate the colorimetry and chemical properties of the wood of Parkia pendula (angelim-saia) and Simarouba amara (marupá) that was thermally modified by different methods. Three treatments were evaluated: T1 (pre-treatment in an oven for one hour at 120 °C and treatment in an oven at 180 °C for three hours); T2 (pre-treatment in an autoclave at 125 °C for three hours under 1.2 kgf cm-2 and treatment in an oven at 180 °C for three hours); and T3 (without pre-treatment, with sample treatment in vegetable oil). The thermally modified wood was evaluated in relation to untreated wood for structural chemical composition (extractives, lignin, holocellulose and ash content), colorimetric parameters defined through the CIELAB (Commission Internationale de l´Eclairage) system and total color variation. We detected a significant increase in extractives content and a decrease in holocellulose and lignin content in T3 for both species, which can be explained by the impregnation of oil in the wood samples. The thermal modification caused the surface darkening of the wood of both species, which was more pronounced in P. pendula. Despite the colorimetric change, there was no chemical damage to the wood. stability homogeneity context angelimsaia angelim saia (angelim-saia marupá (marupá methods T pretreatment pre 12 C 18 hours) 1 2 1. cm2 cm cm- without pretreatment, treatment, pre-treatment oil. . oil) extractives, (extractives , content) Commission l´Eclairage lEclairage l Eclairage variation species samples P change
RESUMO A modificação térmica da madeira é um processo que altera sua composição química, visando melhorar propriedades tecnológicas como estabilidade dimensional, redução do teor de umidade de equilíbrio, homogeneidade ou cor. Neste contexto, este estudo teve como objetivo avaliar a colorimetria e as propriedades químicas da madeira de Parkia pendula (angelim-saia) e Simarouba amara (marupá) modificada termicamente por diferentes métodos. Foram avaliados três tratamentos: T1 (pré-tratamento em estufa por uma hora a 120 °C e tratamento em estufa a 180 °C por três horas); T2 (pré-tratamento em autoclave a 125 °C por três horas sob 1,2 kgf cm-2 e tratamento em estufa a 180 °C por três horas); T3 (sem pré-tratamento, com tratamento da amostra em óleo vegetal). A madeira termicamente modificada foi avaliada em relação à madeira não tratada quanto à composição química estrutural (extrativos, lignina, holocelulose e teor de cinzas), parâmetros colorimétricos definidos através do sistema CIELAB (Commission Internationale de l´Eclairage) e variação total de cores. Detectamos um aumento significativo no teor de extrativos e uma diminuição no teor de holocelulose e lignina em T3 para ambas espécies, o que pode ser explicado pela impregnação de óleo nas amostras de madeira. A modificação térmica provocou o escurecimento superficial da madeira de ambas espécies, que foi mais pronunciado em P. pendula. Apesar da alteração colorimétrica, quimicamente não houve prejuízos para as madeiras. dimensional equilíbrio cor contexto angelimsaia angelim saia (angelim-saia marupá (marupá métodos tratamentos T prétratamento pré 12 C 18 horas) 1 2 1, cm2 cm cm- sem prétratamento, tratamento, pré-tratamento vegetal. vegetal . vegetal) extrativos, (extrativos cinzas, cinzas , cinzas) Commission l´Eclairage lEclairage l Eclairage cores espécies P colorimétrica madeiras

Abstract This research assessed the efficiency of chemically modified tannins as coagulants for water treatment. Tannins from Anacardium occidentale (cashew tree) and Mimosa caesalpiniifolia (‘sabiá’) barks and seedless fruits of Anadenanthera colubrina (‘angico’) and Pityrocarpa moniliformis (‘angico de bezerro’) were evaluated after cationization to remove turbidity from water. After extraction, the total solids content (TSC), Stiasny index (SI), and total condensed tannins content (TCC) of the tannins extracts were determined. Extracted tannins were converted into powders and cationized. Then, the cationized tannins' effectiveness on water turbidity removal, sedimentation time, and effect on pH were assessed. Three concentrations of each type of tannin were used to evaluate flocculant efficiency: 50, 100, and 150 mg L-1. Although the P. moniliformis extract had a higher TSC value (56.06%), it presented the lowest SI (0.42%) and TTC (0.23%) values. M. caesalpiniifolia had the lowest TSC (9.18%) and the highest SI (91.27%), while Ac occidentale stood out with the highest TCC (19.83%). All species have shown potential for tannin production and efficiently removed turbidity at all concentrations. However, only A. occidentale, at a concentration of 100 mg L-1, presented a nephelometric turbidity unit of 2.4, reaching the potability standards required by international specifications and, therefore, being indicated for water treatment. treatment cashew tree ‘sabiá sabiá (‘sabiá’ ‘angico angico (‘angico’ bezerro bezerro’ extraction TSC, , (TSC) SI, (SI) (TCC determined Then removal time 50 15 L1.

Resumo O presente trabalho teve como objetivo avaliar a eficiência de taninos quimicamente modificados como coagulantes para tratamento de água. Os taninos das cascas de Anacardium occidentale (cajueiro) e Mimosa caesalpiniifolia (sabiá) e dos frutos sem sementes de Anadenanthera colubrina (angico) e Pityrocarpa moniliformis (angico de bezerro) foram avaliados após cationização para remover a turbidez da água. Após a extração, os extratos de taninos tiveram o teor de sólidos totais (TST), o índice de Stiasny (IS) e o teor de taninos totais condensados (TCT). Os taninos extraídos foram convertidos em pó e cationizados. Em seguida, avaliou-se a eficácia dos taninos cationizados na remoção da turbidez e o tempo de sedimentação além do efeito no pH da água. Para avaliar a eficiência dos taninos cationizados como floculantes foram utilizadas três concentrações de cada tipo de material: 50, 100 e 150 mg L-1. Embora o extrato de P. moniliformis tenha apresentado maior valor de TST (56,06%), apresentou os menores valores de IS (0,42%) e TCT (0,23%).

ABSTRACT The essential oil of Piper amalago L. is recognized for its bioactive compounds with phytotoxic potential against invasive plants. However, little is known about the role of seasonal variation in the action of these compounds. This study aimed to investigate the impact of dry and rainy seasons on the chemical composition, phytotoxic, and cytogenotoxic activity of P. amalago essential oil. Analysis of the chemical composition revealed qualitative and quantitative variations, highlighting β-elemene, germacrene A, linalool, and β-caryophyllene as major compounds. The essential oil from the rainy season showed higher yield compared to that of the dry season. In pre-emergence tests against Bidens pilosa (invasive plant) and Lactuca sativa (non-target plant), negative effects on germination and root and shoot growth were observed, with these effects being more pronounced at higher concentrations, resembling the herbicide glyphosate. The essential oil from the dry season exhibited greater phytotoxic activity on the germination and development of the aerial part of B. pilosa, associated with higher concentrations of linalool and caryophyllene oxide. Additionally, the essential oils of P. amalago induced changes in the mitotic index and aneugenic alterations in L. sativa meristematic cells. These results underscore the bioherbicidal potential of P. amalago essential oil, highlighting its greater efficacy against B. pilosa during the dry season, possibly due to higher levels of linalool and caryophyllene oxide.

BACKGROUND Although blood transfusion is an essential therapeutic procedure, it can present risks, including transmitting infectious diseases, such as malaria. In Acre, the thick blood smear microscopic examination (TBS) is used to screen infected malaria blood donors. However, TBS has low sensitivity for detecting Plasmodium in situations of low parasitaemia, such as those presented by asymptomatic clinically healthy individuals. OBJECTIVES To investigate the pertinence of using polymerase chain reaction (PCR) to detect malarial infection for screening blood donors in Cruzeiro do Sul, Acre, an endemic high-risk malaria area in the Legal Amazon. METHODS A cross-sectional study was conducted among individuals eligible and ineligible to be blood donors, according to clinical and epidemiological criteria. Besides the mandatory screening of HCV, HBV, and HIV tests, malaria PCR and TBS were also carried out on all blood donor candidates who attended the Cruzeiro do Sul Blood Centre from July to September 2022. FINDINGS Of the 230 participants, 209 (91%) were eligible for blood donation by clinical-epidemiological screening. Surprisingly, no blood donor candidate reported a history of malaria. All TBS microscopic tests were negative at the time of recruitment. However, samples from four blood donor candidates (two eligible by clinical and epidemiological malaria criteria and two ineligible by hypertension and recent tattoo) were positive by Plasmodium and P. vivax molecular tests. MAIN CONCLUSIONS Malaria molecular techniques for screening blood donors should be introduced in the Brazilian Blood Centres to maximise recipient safety. Furthermore, selecting zero-risk donors could pave the way to build a transmissible malaria-free environment in the blood bank context in the near future. procedure risks diseases Acre (TBS However parasitaemia (PCR highrisk high risk Amazon crosssectional cross sectional HCV HBV 2022 23 participants 20 91% 91 (91% clinicalepidemiological Surprisingly recruitment tattoo P safety Furthermore zerorisk zero malariafree free future 202 2 9 (91 (9 (

ABSTRACT The aim of this study was to compare the in vitro activity of delafloxacin with other fluoro-quinolones against bacterial pathogens recovered from inpatients with osteomyelitis, Acute Bacterial Skin and Skin-Structure Infections (ABSSSI). In total, 100 bacterial isolates (58 % Gram-negative and 42 % Gram-positive) recovered from inpatients between January and April 2021, were reidentified at species level by MALDI-TOF MS. Antimicrobial susceptibility testing was conducted using the broth microdilution method and the detection of bio-film formation was assessed through the microtiter plate assay. The screening for mecA was carried out by PCR, while mutations in the Quinolone Resistance Determining Regions (QRDR), specifically gyrA and parC, were analyzed using PCR followed by Sanger sequencing. Results showed that delafloxacin exhibited greater in vitro potency (at least 64-times) than the other tested fluoroquinolones (levofloxacin and ciprofloxacin) when evaluating Staphylococcus aureus (MIC50 ≤0.008 mg/L) and coagulase-negative Staphylococcus (MIC50 0.06 mg/L). Furthermore, delafloxacin (MIC50 0.25 mg/L) was at least 4 times more potent than other tested fluoroquinolones (MIC50 1 mg/L) against P. aeruginosa. No difference in delafloxacin activity (MIC50 0.03 mg/L) was observed against Enterobacter cloacae when compared with ciprofloxacin (MIC50 0.03 mg/L). Despite presenting low activity against K. pneumoniae isolates (22.2 %), delafloxacin exhibited twice the activity compared to both levofloxacin and ciprofloxacin. Delafloxacin also exhibited a strong activity (71.4 %–85.7 %.) against biofilm producing bacterial pathogens tested in this study. Interestingly, 82.14 % of the staphylococci tested in this study harbored mecA gene. In addition, the gyrA and parC genes in fluoroquinolone-resistant Gram-negative isolates displayed different mutations (substitutions and deletions). Herein, we showed that delafloxacin was the most active fluoroquinolone against staphylococci (including MRSA) and P. aeruginosa when compared to other fluoroquinolones such as ciprofloxacin and levofloxacin. fluoro quinolones osteomyelitis SkinStructure Structure ABSSSI.

Resumen Hoy en día la medición de la dinámica respiratoria está infravalorada en el ámbito clínico y en la vida diaria de un sujeto, y sigue representando un reto desde el punto de vista técnico y médico. En este artículo proponemos un concepto para medir algunos de sus parámetros, como la frecuencia respiratoria (FR), utilizando cuatro sensores inerciales. Se realizaron dos experimentos diferentes para validar el concepto. Analizamos la colocación más adecuada de cada sensor para evaluar esas características y estudiamos la fiabilidad del sistema para medir parámetros anormales de la respiración (taquipnea, bradipnea y retención de la respiración). Por último, realizamos mediciones en pacientes posCOVID-19, algunos de ellos con alteraciones respiratorias después de más de un año del diagnóstico. Los resultados experimentales mostraron que el sistema propuesto podría utilizarse potencialmente para medir la dinámica respiratoria en el ámbito clínico. Además, mientras que la FR puede calcularse fácilmente con cualquier sensor, otros parámetros deben medirse con un sensor en una posición determinada.
Abstract Nowadays, the measurement of respiratory dynamics is underrated at clinical setting and in the daily life of a subject, still representing a challenge from a technical and medical point of view. In this article we propose a concept to measure some of its parameters, such as the respiratory rate (RR), using four inertial sensors. Two different experiments were performed to validate the concept. We analyzed the most suitable placement of each sensor to assess those features and studied the reliability of the system to measure abnormal parameters of respiration (tachypnea, bradypnea and breath holding). Finally, we measured post-COVID-19 patients, some of them with breath alterations after more than a year of the diagnosis. Experimental results showed that the proposed system could be potentially used to measure the respiratory dynamics at clinical setting. Moreover, while RR can be easily calculated by any sensor, other parameters need to be measured with a sensor in a particular position.

RESUMO Muitas espécies de peixe suportam jejum prolongado como parte do seu ciclo de vida, devido a flutuações na quantidade e qualidade de alimentos disponíveis em seu habitat natural. Esses animais utilizam reservas endógenas durante períodos de escassez de alimentos e se recuperam quando voltam a estar disponíveis. Avaliamos o efeito de jejum prolongado sobre indicadores de uso de reservas corporais, desempenho e integridade intestinal no serrasalmídeo amazônico Piaractus brachypomus. Distribuímos 66 juvenis (68,6 ± 2,2 g) em 11 tanques. O tratamento consistiu em 30 dias de jejum seguidos de 45 dias de realimentação, e o controle de 75 dias de alimentação contínua, com 5 repetições (um tanque com seis peixes). Os seis indivíduos do 11º tanque foram usados para medidas basais. Parâmetros sanguíneos, concentração de lipídios musculares, índices de gordura hepatossomática e mesentérica, parâmetros de crescimento somático e morfologia das vilosidades intestinais foram medidos a cada 15 dias. Glicose, triglicerídeos, colesterol, proteína total, índices hepatossomático e de gordura mesentérica, ganho em peso, taxa de crescimento específico, fator de condição e biomassa total diminuíram significativamente durante o jejum em comparação com o controle, mas todos, exceto a condição corporal, recuperaram-se durante a realimentação. O comprimento e o perímetro das vilosidades intestinais foram significativamente menores durante o jejum em comparação com o controle. O protocolo de alimentação permitiu que P. brachypomus mobilizasse parte de suas reservas corporais durante o jejum, porém, em geral, a realimentação foi suficiente para repor suas necessidades corporais e o desempenho compatível com o de animais alimentados continuamente. vida natural 6 68,6 686 68 (68, 22 2 2, g 1 tanques 3 4 7 contínua um peixes. peixes . peixes) º basais sanguíneos musculares mesentérica Glicose triglicerídeos colesterol peso específico todos corporal recuperaramse recuperaram P porém geral continuamente 68, (68 (6 (
ABSTRACT For many fish species, prolonged fasting is part of their life cycle, as there are seasonal fluctuations in the quantity and quality of food available in their natural habitat. These animals use endogenous reserves during periods of food scarcity and recover when resources become available again. We evaluated the effect of a prolonged fasting period on indicators of body reserve use, growth performance and intestinal integrity of the Amazonian serrasalmid Piaractus brachypomus. We distributed 66 juveniles (68.6 ± 2.2 g) in 11 tanks. The treatment consisted of 30 days fasting followed by 45 days refeeding and the control of 75 days normal feeding with 5 replicates (one tank with six fish). The six individuals in the 11th tank were used for baseline measurements. Blood parameters, muscle lipid concentration, hepatosomatic and mesenteric fat indices, somatic growth parameters and intestinal villi morphology were measured every 15 days. Glucose, triglycerides, cholesterol, total protein, the mesenteric fat and hepatosomatic indices, weight gain, specific growth rate, condition factor and total biomass decreased significantly during fasting compared to the control, but all except body condition recovered during refeeding. The length and perimeter of the intestinal villi was significantly lower during fasting compared to the control. The feeding protocol allowed P. brachypomus to mobilize part of their body reserves during fasting, however, in general, refeeding was sufficient to restore their body needs and growth performance compatible with that of continuously fed animals. species cycle habitat again 6 68.6 686 68 (68. 22 2 2. g 1 tanks 3 4 7 one fish. . fish) th measurements concentration indices Glucose triglycerides cholesterol protein gain rate P however general 68.

Resumo Antecedentes Embora existam várias formas de estimar a dor na demência ainda há necessidade de ferramentas com melhores itens para avaliação da presença e intensidade da dor nesses indivíduos. Objetivo Analisar as propriedades psicométricas de uma ferramenta de avaliação da dor em idosos dementados, a “Pain Intensity Measure for Persons with Dementia Portuguese - PIMD-p”. Métodos Idosos expostos a situações potencialmente dolorosas, sendo esses dementados e com prejuízo na comunicação verbal, foram selecionados em uma unidade ambulatorial e uma instituição de longa permanência, em São Paulo. A PIMD-p foi aplicada por 2 pesquisadores (E1 e E2), de forma separada, num mesmo dia, e, com intervalo de no máximo 14 dias, essa foi reaplicada por apenas um deles (E3), e ainda, foi obtida a intensidade álgica inferida pelos cuidadores dos idosos participantes. Na análise estatística foram utilizados o Alfa de Cronbach, o Coeficiente de Spearman e o Índice de Correlação Intraclasses. Resultados Selecionada uma amostra de 50 idosos com média de idade de 86 anos, a maioria portadora de demência moderada e de dor de origem musculoesquelética. Apuradas para a PIMD-p uma boa consistência interna, segundo o alfa Cronbach (0,838); excelentes reprodutibilidades intra e interobservador (0,927 e 0,970, respectivamente; p < 0,001); e uma validade convergente, essa última obtida com as fortes e significativas correlações entre as intensidades dolorosas inferidas e os indicadores de dor do instrumento em estudo (exceto para o indicador “olhar expressivo”; corr = 0,106 e p = 0,462). Conclusão A PIMD-p se mostrou ser uma ferramenta com propriedades de medida adequadas para avaliar a presença e intensidade álgicas em idosos com demência e com prejuízo na comunicação verbal. indivíduos Pain PIMDp.

Abstract Background Although there are several ways to assess pain in dementia, there is still a need for tools with better items to assess the presence of pain intensity in these individuals. Objective To validate to Brazilian version of the “Pain Intensity Measure for Persons with Dementia – PIMD-p. Methods Older adults, all demented with impaired verbal communication and exposed to potentially painful situations, were selected from an outpatient clinic and long-term care facility (LTCF). The PIMD-p was applied independently by 2 researchers (E1 and E2) on the same day. Within 14 days, the instrument was reapplied by one of the 2 researchers (E3). The pain intensity reported by participants' caregivers and LTCF nurses were recorded on a verbal numeric pain scale. For the statistical analysis, Cronbach's Alpha, Spearman's Coefficient and intraclass correlation Index were calculated. Results A total of 50 older individuals were selected (mean age 86 years), majority with musculoskeletal pain. The PIMD-p demonstrated good internal consistency according to Cronbach's α (0.838), excellent intra and interobserver reproducibility (0.927 and 0.970, respectively; p < 0.001), and convergent validity (strong significant correlations between reported pain intensities and pain indicators on the PIMD-p (except for expressive eyes; corr = 0.106 and p = 0.462). A ROC curve was plotted to determine the best cut-off for the PIMD-P, and a score of 7.5 predicted moderate-to-severe pain, with 77.8% sensitivity and 95.7% specificity (p < 0.001). Conclusion The PIMD-p showed satisfactory psychometric properties for measuring intensity of pain in demented older adults with impaired verbal communication. dementia Pain PIMDp.

Abstract The purpose of this paper was to avaliate of the concentration of hydrocolloids (low methoxyl pectin [LMP], guar gum [GG], and carrageenan gum [CG]) in low-calorie orange jellies in order to maximize the amount of bioactive compounds and antioxidant capacity, and to study the influence on degradation these compounds. A mixture design with seven tests was used to analyze the total phenolic compounds, ascorbic acid (vitamin C) and antioxidant capacity (ABTS, DPPH and β-carotene/linoleic acid methods). The results were analyzed by response surface methodology and the Scott-Knott mean test at a significance level of 5% (p ≤ 0.05). In general, the regions containing 0.5% GG and 0.5% GC had higher levels of the variables under study, and this combination preserved the bioactive compounds and antioxidant activity of jellies in relation to that of orange juice. low LMP, LMP , [LMP] GG, [GG] CG [CG] lowcalorie calorie vitamin C ABTS, ABTS (ABTS βcarotene/linoleic βcarotenelinoleic β carotene/linoleic carotene linoleic methods. methods . methods) ScottKnott Scott Knott 5 p 0.05. 005 0.05 0 05 0.05) general 0.5 juice [LMP [GG [CG βcarotene carotenelinoleic 00 0.0 0.

ABSTRACT Piptocephalis includes mycoparasitic fungi, mainly targeting mucoralean species. Until now, there has been no compilation of data on the taxonomy and geographic distribution of Piptocephalis, which is a barrier to the proper identification of species of this genus by taxonomists. The present study provides an overview of Piptocephalis with taxonomic and occurrence data, in addition to reporting P. graefenhanii and P. xenophila for the first time in South America. Both species were observed parasitizing Mucor spp. The P. graefenhanii was observed growing on paca dung and P. xenophila was observed on guinea-pig dung in Recife, northeastern Brazil. Aspects of their morphology are discussed and a key for the genus is presented. fungi now taxonomists P America spp guineapig guinea pig Recife Brazil presented

Resumo Physaloptera Rudolphi, 1819 é um gênero de nematódeos que inclui aproximadamente 100 espécies parasitárias em vertebrados em todo o mundo. Destes, aproximadamente 30 ocorrem na região Neotropical, e nove foram reportados para répteis neotropicais. Physaloptera spp. são reconhecidas por sua morfologia distinta na extremidade apical e por caracteres do sistema reprodutivo, especialmente nos machos. No entanto, embora os caracteres morfológicos para o diagnóstico de espécies tenham sido estabelecidos, frequentemente são encontrados problemas de identificação em relação a descrições pouco detalhadas e espécimes mal preservados. Isto pode levar a incongruências taxonômicas e erros de identificação. Physaloptera retusa (Rudolphi, 1819) é a espécie mais comum do gênero e tem sido reportada para várias espécies de répteis neotropicais. Com base nos estudos das revisões de espécimes de nematódeos, identificados como P. retusa de diferentes coleções de museus, foi providenciada uma redescrição detalhada, incluindo-se o material-tipo, espécimes "voucher" e novos espécimes obtidos neste estudo com novos dados morfológicos, obtidos a partir de microscopia eletrônica de luz e varredura.

Abstract Physaloptera Rudolphi, 1819 is a genus of nematodes that includes approximately 100 species parasitic in vertebrates around the world. From these, approximately 30 occur in the Neotropical region, with nine reported from neotropical reptiles. Physaloptera spp. are recognized by their distinct morphology of the apical end and characters of the reproductive system. However, despite the fact that the morphological characters for species diagnosis have been firmly established, we frequently find identification problems regarding poorly detailed descriptions and poorly preserved specimens. These may lead to taxonomic incongruencies. Physaloptera retusa (Rudolphi, 1819) is the most common species of the genus and has been reported from several species of neotropical reptiles. Based on our reexaminations of nematode specimens identified as P. retusa from different museum collections, we provide a detailed redescription including the type material, voucher specimens and new specimens recovered currently and showed in this study with new morphological data obtained using light and scanning electron microscopy tools.
