Abstract Although the conservation of tropical biodiversity depends on protected areas, there is still a very large ‘gap’ of knowledge on the flora of Brazilian reserves, especially in the Northeast region of Brazil. Field and herbarium surveys of the phanerogamic flora of the Ubajara National Park, located on the Brazilian Northeast, were made and analyses on phenology and dispersal syndromes were performed. 418 taxa (213 trees and shrubs, 100 terrestrial herbs, 68 climbing plants, 33 sub-shrubs, two epiphytes, one hemiparasite and one aquatic herb) were recorded. The most representative families were: Fabaceae, Malvaceae, Asteraceae, Rubiaceae and Euphorbiaceae. The annual flowering / fruiting peak hypothesis was not fully confirmed, therefore, the forest may be an important food resource for the fauna all year long (especially in the moister region). Zoochory was the predominant dispersal syndrome in the moister area, whereas, autochory and anemochory together, predominated in the drier area.

ABSTRACT The cultivation of genotypes non-adapted to the cultivation region of interest is among the main factors responsible for low yield. The aim of the present study is to select hybrid maize through GGE biplot analysis and to assess its adaptability and stability in different environments in Northeastern Brazil. Twenty-five hybrid maize cultivars were assessed in ten different environments in Northeastern Brazil in 2012 and 2013 based on the randomized block design, with two replications. The analysis of variance and assessment of genotype adaptability and stability were made through GGE biplot analysis, based on grain yield. Analysis of variance results showed different performances depending on the genotype, as well as genotype/environment interaction. The biplot analysis was efficient on data interpretation and represented 63.73% of the total variation in the first two main components, it also allowed classifying the ten environments into three macro-environments. Most environments were positively correlated. Hybrids 2 B 604 HX, 30 A 95 HX, 2 B 587 HX and 2 B 710 HX were responsive and stable. Hybrid 30 A 16 HX was recommended for macro-environments2 and 3. Cultivar 30 A 68 HX was recommended to environment 1. São Raimundo das Mangabeiras and Nova Santa Rosa counties were discriminating and representative. Nossa Senhora das Dores, Umbaúba, Teresina, Brejo, Frei Paulo, Colinas and Balsa counties were ambiguous and non-recommended for further evaluations.

RESUMO O feijão-caupi é cultivado em diferentes condições edafoclimáticas da região Nordeste do Brasil. Devido à existência da interação entre genótipos e ambientes, torna-se necessário selecionar e desenvolver cultivares para essa região com alta produtividade, estabilidade e adaptabilidade. Este trabalho teve como objetivo selecionar linhagens de feijão-caupi de porte semiereto, simultaneamente, para alta produtividade, adaptabilidade e estabilidade genotípica na região Nordeste do Brasil, via procedimento REML/BLUP. Foram avaliados 20 genótipos de porte semiereto, sendo 15 linhagens e cinco cultivares, em 37 ambientes da Região Nordeste, no período de 2013 a 2015. Os experimentos foram conduzidos em condições de sequeiro, em delineamento de blocos completos casualizados, com quatro repetições. A adaptabilidade e estabilidade genotípica foram avaliadas via procedimento REML/BLUP. A variância ambiental foi o maior componente da variância fenotípica e a interação genótipos x ambientes foi do tipo complexa, com a produtividade de grãos variando de 277 kg ha-1 (Serra Talhada-PE, 2015) a 2.845 kg ha-1(São Raimundo das Mangabeiras-MA, 2013) e média geral de 1.342 kg ha-1. De acordo com as estimativas de média harmônica de desempenho relativo de valores genotípicos (MHPRVG), as linhagens MNC04-795F-153 e MNC04-795F-159 reúnem simultaneamente alta produtividade, estabilidade e adaptabilidade genotípica, podendo ser indicadas com maior probabilidade de sucesso para o cultivo nos ambientes de avaliação da região Nordeste do Brasil.

ABSTRACT Cowpea is grown in the various soil and climatic conditions of the Northeast region of Brazil. Thus, selecting and developing cultivars with high yield, stability, and adaptability for this region is necessary due to the genotype × environment interaction. The objective of this work was to select cowpea lines of semi-erect plant simultaneously for high yield, adaptability, and genotypic stability in the Northeast region of Brazil by the REML/BLUP procedure. Twenty semi-erect genotypes-15 lines and five cultivars-were evaluated in 37 environments of the Northeast region from 2013-2015. The experiments were carried out under rainfed conditions in a randomized complete block design with four replications. The adaptability and genotypic stability were evaluated by the REML/BLUP procedure. The environmental variance was the largest factor in the phenotypic variance and the genotype × environment interaction was complex-type, with a grain yield ranging from 277 kg ha-1 (Serra Talhada PE, 2015) to 2,845 kg ha-1 (São Raimundo das Mangabeiras MA, 2013), and an overall mean of 1,342 kg ha-1. According to the Harmonic Mean of Relative Performance of Genetic Values (HMRPGV) estimates, the lines MNC04-795F-153 and MNC04-795F-159 were those that simultaneously had high yield, adaptability, and genotypic stability, and can be recommended and grown with greater probability of success in the evaluated environments in the Northeast region of Brazil.

ABSTRACT INTRODUCTION: Aedes aegypti eggs can be collected from the water surface. METHODS: Aedes aegypti oviposition from 97 field ovitraps was studied. RESULTS: Of the 16,016 eggs collected, 11,439 were obtained from paddles in ovitraps and 4,577 from water. Further, 89 (91.8%) traps contained eggs on water and 22 (22.7%) traps contained eggs only on water. CONCLUSIONS: In field traps, Aedes aegypti females usually oviposit some eggs on water surface suggesting that they might also oviposit on water of some natural breeding, and this possibility needs to be investigated. Eggs oviposited on water need to be considered for collecting trap data.

Objetivo: investigou a prevalência de pneumopatia causada por Pneumocystis jirovecii em pacientes com o Vírus da Imunodeficiência Humana (HIV). Os pacientes pesquisados foram aqueles tratados em clínicas de pneumologia de alguns hospitais da cidade do Rio de Janeiro, Estado do Rio de Janeiro, Brasil. Métodos: entre janeiro de 2009 e julho de 2010 foram examinadas 230 amostras de enxague brônquio alveolar obtidos de pacientes de ambos os sexos na faixa etária entre 14 e 41 anos. Os lavados obtidos foram corados pelo método de Giemsa e analisados por microscopia óptica. Resultados: A prevalência geral da infecção por P. jirovecii foi de 23,5 % (54 infectados de 230 amostras analisadas), sendo 22,3 % no sexo masculino (32 infectados de 142 examinados) e 25,6 % no feminino (21 mulheres infectadas de 82 examinadas), não demonstrando diferença significativa entre os gêneros (x²= 0.05, p> 0.05). A correlação entre a infecção e a faixa etária indicou que a infecção aumenta conforme o aumento da idade, porém de forma insignificante (rs= 0,78; p> 0,05). Esse aumento ocorre de tal forma que a prevalência nos grupos etários entre 26 e 41 anos representaram individualmente mais que o dobro da observada entre os pacientes mais jovens entre 15 e 25 anos. Conclusão: os pacientes com SIDA têm grande propensão a desenvolver pneumonia por Pneumocystis jirovecii, com risco especial de colapso respiratório.

Objective: a retrospective study was conducted to determine the prevalence of pneumopathy due to Pneumocystis jirovecii in patients with the human immunodefiency virus (HIV). The patients surveyed were being treated at pneumological clinics of several hospitals in the city of Rio de Janeiro, state of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Methods: 230 bronchoalveolar lavage samples from patients of both sexes aged 14-41 were examined from January 2009 to July 2010. The lavage samples were stained by Giemsa's method and analyzed by optical microscopy. Results: overall prevalence of infection due to Pneumocystis jirovecii was 23.5 % (54 infected of 230 examined), of whom 22.3 % were male (32 infected of 142 examined) and 25.6 % were female (21 infected of 82 examined), with no significant difference between the sexes (×²= 0,05, p> 0,05). On the other hand, prevalence of the infection was found to increase with age, though not significantly (rs= 0,78; p> 0,05). This increase occurs in such a way that prevalence in the 26-41 age group more than doubles that of the 15-25 age group. Conclusion: AIDS patients are prone to develop Pneumocystis jirovecii pneumonia, with a marked risk of respiratory collapse.

Objetivo: este estudio retrospectivo investigó la prevalencia de neumopatía causada por Pneumocystis jirovecii en pacientes con el virus de la inmunodeficiencia humana (VIH). Los pacientes investigados fueron aquellos tratados en clínicas de neumología de algunos hospitales de la ciudad de Río de Janeiro, estado de Río de Janeiro, Brasil. Métodos: entre enero de 2009 y julio de 2010 se examinaron 230 muestras de lavado bronquioalveolar obtenidas de pacientes de los 2 sexos en la franja etaria entre 14 y 41 años. Los lavados obtenidos se colorearon por el método de Giemsa y se analizaron por microscopia óptica. Resultados: la prevalencia general de la infección por Pneumocystis jirovecii fue de 23,5 % (54 infectados de 230 muestras analizadas), con 22,3 % en el sexo masculino (32 infectados de 142 examinados) y 25,6 % en el femenino (21 mujeres infectadas de 82 examinadas), no demostrando diferencia significativa entre los géneros (×²= 0,05, p> 0,05). La correlacción entre la infección y la franja etaria indicó que la infección aumenta conforme el incremento de la edad, sin embargo, de modo no significativo (rs= 0,78; p> 0,05). Ese aumento ocurre de tal forma que la prevalencia en los grupos etarios entre 26 y 41 años representó, individualmente, más que el doble de la observada entre los pacientes más jóvenes de 15 a 25 años. Conclusión: los pacientes con sida son propensos a desarrollar neumonía por Pneumocystis jirovecii, con riesgo especial de colapso respiratorio.

El municipio de Paraty presenta altas tasas de incidencia de Leishmaniasis Cutánea (LC), con un promedio anual de 43.2 casos desde 1985. El municipio presenta gran importancia en la actividad turística por su patrimonio histórico y por sus características paisajísticas. Anualmente recibe miles de turistas internacionales y nacionales. Estudios relacionados con los flebotominos se llevaron a cabo en siete localidades con informes de casos humanos o caninos de LC, con el fin de proporcionar nueva información para ayudar a la prevención de LC. Se recolectaron un total de 3,831 especímenes pertenecientes a siete especies: Nyssomyia intermedia, Migonemyia migonei, Micropygomyia schreiberi, Pintomyia fischeri, Evandromyia tupynambai, Lutzomyia longipalpis y Exapillata firmatoi. La especie N. intermedia ha sido predominante, seguida por M. migonei y L. longipalpis. El pico más alto de actividad de los flebotominos en Ponta da Romana se produjo entre los rangos de 18 a 19 h y 01 a 02 h. n la localidad de Pouso de Cajaíba, los picos se registraron entre 19 a 20 h y 01 a 02 h. Se sugiere que las especies N. intermedia y M. migonei están transmitiendo la Leishmaniasis cutánea americana en áreas endémicas de Paraty, Río de Janeiro, Brasil.

The municipality of Paraty has a high incidence of American Cutaneous Leishmaniasis (ACL), with an annual mean of 43.2 cases since 1985. The municipality is of great importance for tourism activities given its historic importance and landscape characteristics. It receives thousands of international and national tourists annually. Studies on the sand fly fauna were carried out in seven localities with reports of human or canine cases of ACL, in order to provide new informatión to help prevent ACL. A total of 3,831 specimens were collected belonging to seven species: Nyssomyia intermedia, Migonemyia migonei, Micropygomyia schreiberi, Pintomyia fischeri, Evandromyia tupynambai, Lutzomyia longipalpis, and Exapillata firmatoi. The species N. intermedia was predominant, followed by M. migonei and L. longipalpis. The major peak of sand fly densities in Ponta da Romanã occurred between the ranges of 18 to 19 h and 01 to 02 h. En the locality of Pouso da Cajaíba, the peaks occurred between 19 to 20 h and 01 to 02 h. We suggest that the species N. intermedia and M. migonei are transmitting American cutaneous Leishmaniasis in the endemic areas of Paraty, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.

Objetives: The authors investigated the P. jiroveci prevalence and the epidemiological pattern of individuals with HIV infection and pulmonary infection concomitantly. Method: Were collected 266 samples of bronchoalveolar lavae of the HIV infection patients from three hospitals from Baixada Fluminense, Rio de Janeiro State, Brazil. Results: The overall prevalence of Pneumocystis jiroveci infection was 26.3%, been 18% in male and 8.3% in female. The sexes showed similar prevalence (26.8% in men and 25.3% in women) and considering the infection stratified by age category, except to female 10-15 years old group, all of them showed infection by the P. jiroveci. Both measurements without significant differences (among sex, X²= 0,07; among age category, H=10,7, p>0,05) respectively. From this survey eight cases of tuberculosis were diagnosed, representing 3.0% of the total examined.

Flebótomos de áreas com notificações de casos autóctones de leishmaniose visceral canina e leishmaniose tegumentar americana em Angra dos Reis, Rio de Janeiro, Brasil. O município de Angra dos Reis apresenta casos humanos de leishmaniose tegumentar americana desde 1945. Inquéritos flebotomínicos realizados em 1978 revelaram a presença de Nyssomyia intermedia e a primeira notificação de Lutzomyia longipalpis no Rio de Janeiro, Ilha Grande, Angra dos Reis. Em agosto de 2002 foi notificado o primeiro caso canino de leishmaniose visceral na Ilha Grande, Angra dos Reis. Inquéritos flebotomínicos realizados nos peridomicílios, no período de novembro de 2002 a maio de 2003, em quatro localidades de Angra dos Reis, resultaram em 12.554 flebotomíneos e a presença de nove espécies: Brumptomyia sp.; Nyssomyia intermedia, Migonemyia migonei, Micropygomyia schreiberi, Pintomyia fischeri, Psychodopygus davisi, Psychodopygus ayrosai, Evandromyia tupinambay, Psathyromyia pelloni. foi Nyssomyia intermedia, predominante em todas as localidades, seguida por M.migonei. O principal vetor da LVA, Lutzomyia longipalpis, não foi detectado nas localidades, incluindo áreas do entorno, onde um cão infectado residia.

The city of Angra dos Reis presents human cases of American cutaneous leishmaniasis since 1945. Phlebotomine surveys in 1978 had disclosed the presence of Nyssomyia intermedia and the first notification of Lutzomyia longipalpis in Rio de Janeiro, Ilha Grande, Angra dos Reis. In August of 2002 the first canine case of visceral leishmaniasis in the Ilha Grande, Angra dos Reis was notified. Surveys of phlebotomines in the peridomiciliary areas, in the period of November, 2002, through May, 2003, in four localities of Angra dos Reis, resulted in 12,554 specimens belonging to nine species: Brumptomyia sp. Nyssomyia intermedia, Migonemyia migonei, Micropygomyia schreiberi, Pintomyia fischeri, Psychodopygus davisi, Psychodopygus ayrosai, Evandromyia tupinambay, Psathyromyia pelloni. Nyssomyia intermedia was predominant in all localities, followed by M. migonei. The main vector of the AVL, L. longipalpis, was not detected in the localities, including their surroundings, where an infected dog inhabited.

O objetivo desse manuscrito foi conhecer a freqüência e outros aspectos epidemiológicos da neurocisticercose na Baixada Fluminense, Estado do Rio de Janeiro. Levantou-se junto ao serviço de tomografia computadorizada do Hospital Geral de Nova Iguaçu entre 1996 e 2002 e no Centro de Neuroimagem "D'IMAGEM" entre 1992 e 2002, os casos registrados de neurocisticercose. Analisaram-se 36379 tomografias, encontrando 72 casos da parasitose, a maioria deles em mulheres (62,5%; p>0,05) e na fase crônica (93,1%). Ocorreram em todas as faixas etárias, aumentando a freqüência conforme o aumento da idade (r=0.84, p<0,05), sendo que 45,8% deles ocorreram acima dos 50 anos. Os casos estudados eram originários de vários municípios da Baixada; a renda mensal dos 20 pacientes entrevistados foi R$ 366,00. A urbanização desordenada, vigilância sanitária deficiente, ausência de saneamento básico e educação sanitária são os principais fatores que potencializam a transmissão da cisticercose e da teníase na Baixada Fluminense.

The objective of this manuscript was to know the neurocysticercosis prevalence and some epidemiological aspects in Baixada Fluminense, State of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. The data came from the service of computerized tomography of the Nova Iguaçu General Hospital from 1996 to 2002 and from neuroimage "D'IMAGEM" Center from 1992 to 2002. We analyzed 36379 tomographies identifying 72 cases of the parasitoses, the majority in women (62.5%, p>0.05) and in the chronic phase (93.1%). The neurocysticercosis had occurred in all age groups and increase with age (r=0.84, p<0.05), being that 45.8% of them up to 50 years. The 20 interviewed cases were origin from several municipal districts of Baixada Fluminense, the monthly per capita income was R$ 366. The growing urbanization, deficient sanitary vigilance, absence of sewage systems and sanitary education are the main factors that potentially the transmission of cistycercosis and taeniasis in the Baixada Fluminense.

Em 1977 foi diagnosticado o primeiro caso autóctone de leishmaniose visceral (LV) humano no Município do Rio de Janeiro. A partir de 1980, foram diagnosticados 54 casos autóctones em diversas localidades, sendo que desde 1993 ocorreram 17 casos humanos autóctones notificados. Oito deles ocorreram no bairro de Barra de Guaratiba e o restante distribuído pelos bairros: Camorim, Colônia, Grota Funda, Grumari, Ilha de Guaratiba e Carapiá. Entre setembro de 1996 a dezembro de 1999, foram realizadas capturas de flebotomíneos em 18 localidades nas encostas do maciço da Pedra Branca, no município, e coletados 18.303 espécimes com predomínio de L. intermedia (87,33%), L. migonei (6,59%), L. longipalpis (3,10%) e L. firmatoi (1,90%). A espécie L. longipalpis predominou em Barra de Guaratiba (46,80%), permanecendo ausente nas outras seis localidades onde também ocorreram casos de LV, o que sugere a participação de outras espécies tais como L. migonei e L. firmatoi, pertencentes ao mesmo grupo parafilético da espécie vetora, na cadeia de transmissão da LV na região.

The first autochthonous case of human visceral leishmaniasis (VL) in the Municipality of Rio de Janeiro was diagnosed in 1977. Since 1980, 54 autochthonous cases have been diagnosed in various locations, and since 1993 some 17 autochthonous human cases have been reported. Eight of these occurred in the neighborhood of Barra de Guaratiba and the others were distributed in the following neighborhoods: Camorim, Colônia, Grota Funda, Grumari, Ilha de Guaratiba, and Carapiá. From September 1996 to December 1999, phebotomine sandfly captures were performed at 18 sites on the mountainsides of the Pedra Branca Massif, in the Municipality, and a total of 18,303 specimens were collected, with a predominance of L. intermedia (87.33%), L. migonei (6.59%), L. longipalpis (3.10%), and L. firmatoi (1.90%). The species L. longipalpis predominated in Barra de Guaratiba (46.80%) and was absent from the other six locations where VL cases also occurred, suggesting the participation of other species like L. migonei and L. firmatoi, belonging to the same paraphyletic group of the vector species, in the VL transmission chain in the region.

Abstract: En | Text: En | PDF: En

This paper describes patterns of infestation with Tunga penetrans (L., 1758) within the poor community of Araruama municipality, State of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, assessed by the number of persons and domestic animals parasitized. The overall prevalence of infestation was 49.2% (211 parasitized hosts) of the 429 examined. Humans (p < 0.01) and dogs (p < 0.01) were the most important hosts with 62.6% and 35.6% respectively. Dogs were considered as the potential infestation source to humans. Considering sex and age groups, both measures showed a significant difference (p < 0.01): female (62.2% infested of 143 examined) and male (43.9% infested of 98 examined). All age classes were found infested with significant difference (G = 42.5; p < 0.01) and most of the infestation occurred in children in the 0-9-year old category (27.3%). In contrast and based on mean of chigoe burden per person, the parasitic intensity was significantly higher on male than on female in all age categories, except for the 50+ (H = 27.1; p < 0.01) and decreasing with the increase of age (chi2 = 69.7, A = -124.6, p < 0.01). Growing urbanization, improved housing and sewage systems, use of appropriate footwear, examination of the feet principally in young children, antitetanus prophylaxis and reduction of stray dogs population are the major prophylactic methods recommended.

Abstract: En | Text: En | PDF: En

Eleven species of fleas were collected from 601 small rodents, from November 1995 to October 1997, in areas of natural focus of bubonic plague, including the municipalities of Nova Friburgo, Sumidouro and Teresópolis, State of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Among 924 fleas collected, Polygenis (Polygenis) rimatus (Rhopalopsyllidae) was the predominant species regarding the frequency, representing 41.3% (N:382), followed by P. (Neopolygenis) pradoi, representing 20% (N:185) and Craneopsylla minervaminerva (Stephanocircidae), representing 18.9% (N:175). The host Akodon cursor harbored 47.9% of these fleas. Other six host species were infested by 52.1% of the remaining fleas. Fleas were found on hosts and in places within the focus not previously reported by the literature.
