Objective: To systematically review the literature focusing on obstetric and perinatal outcomes in women with previous or current eating disorders (EDs) and on the consequences of maternal EDs for the offspring. Methods: The study was performed following the systematic review and meta-analysis (PRISMA) statement. PubMed, SciELO, and Cochrane databases were searched for non-interventional studies published in English or Portuguese from January 1980 to December 2020. Risk of bias was assessed using the Methods guide for effectiveness and comparative effectiveness reviews (American Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality). Results: The search yielded 441 records, and 30 articles were included. The psychiatric outcome associated with EDs in women was mainly perinatal depression. The most prevalent obstetric outcomes observed in women with EDs were vomiting, hyperemesis, bleeding, and anemia. Most studies found maternal anorexia nervosa and bulimia nervosa to be associated with low birth weight and slow fetal growth. Women with binge EDs delivered children with increased birth weight. Of the 30 studies included, methodological quality was good in seven, fair in eight, and poor in 15 studies. Conclusion: A considerable body of evidence was reviewed to assess obstetric and perinatal outcomes in EDs. Acute and lifetime EDs, especially if severe, correlated with poor perinatal, obstetric, and neonatal outcomes. Obstetricians and general practitioners should be vigilant and screen for EDs during pregnancy.

Objective: This study translated, culturally adapted, and validated a Brazilian Portuguese version (SCOFF-BR) of the Sick, Control, One Stone, Fat, Food Questionnaire (SCOFF) to screen eating disorders in young adults. Methods: This study used back-translation to culturally adapt the questionnaire according to International Society of Pharmacoeconomics and Outcome Research principles. The SCOFF-BR validation process involved a sample of men and women aged 18-32 years from a university community. After the participants completed the SCOFF-BR questionnaire, pre-trained researchers interviewed them with the Mini International Neuropsychiatric Interview (MINI). The presence of eating disorders was determined according to DSM-5 criteria. Results: Of the 361 subjects, 9.7% had an eating disorder (2.2% anorexia nervosa, 5% bulimia nervosa, and 2.5% binge-eating disorder). Using a cutoff point of two positive responses, we obtained a sensitivity of 80% and a specificity of 71.5%, with an accuracy of 72.3%. The positive and negative predictive values were 23.1% and 97.1%, respectively. Conclusion: This study demonstrated that the Brazilian version of the SCOFF questionnaire presents satisfactory accuracy and reliability to screen eating disorders among young adults in the Brazilian university community.

ABSTRACT The parasitoid Diachasmimorpha longicaudata is an important control agent for several species of fruit flies. Research on the characteristics of the reproductive system and reproductive biology of this parasitoid can be valuable for studies in taxonomy and phylogeny of insects of the order Hymenoptera. In this study we analyzed the histology and histochemistry of the male reproductive system of D. longicaudata. In this species the male reproductive system consists of a pair of testes, two accessory glands, and an ejaculatory duct. Each testicle consists of only one follicle. The testicular follicles are filled with cysts in different stages of spermatogenesis. Histochemical analyses detected proteins and carbohydrates in the cytoplasm of secretory cells and in the lumen of accessory glands. The morphology of the male reproductive system of D. longicaudata differs in some respects from other species of Hymenoptera.

Itaconic acid (IA) is a very promising platform molecule due to the possibility of it being used to obtain products such as methyl methacrylate and synthetic latex, with the prospect that its global market will grow at an average annual rate of 2.8% (CAGR) from 2021 to 2026, exceeding US$ 116.6 million in sales. The main technological route used to obtain itaconic acid is fermentation using different strains of Aspergillus terreus fungi. The main advancements are related to genetic engineering, as Aspergillus terreus is the most tolerant of the microorganisms employed in the process synthesis and optimization. The main substrate used is glucose (52%), followed by glycerol (25%). Among the results presented in this paper, the best production was achieved using Ustilago maydis, with 220 g L-1 of IA, yielding 0.33 g g-1, using glucose as a carbon source. Moreover, it is necessary to continue optimizing the biological process of IA production, since it is a platform molecule with major economic potential.

Abstract Thermogravimetric analysis (TG) is a rapid method for the determination of protecting the ability of thin ﬁlm coatings in addition to oxidation kinetics. Boron carbide (B4C) reinforced Ti-6Al-4V thin ﬁlms were deposited through the magnetron sputtering coating technique. The effect of 0, 2, 4, 6 and 8 Wt. % of B4C adding on microstructure, thermal behaviour and hardness of Ti-6Al-4V-B4C coatings were investigated. Thermal analysis of Ti-6Al-4V-B4C coatings with varying percentage of B4C resulted in the establishment of an exothermic peak, for the reason that reduction in the oxidation of coating. The thermal behaviour of coating was improved by B4C addition; those coatings are recommended for practical application. It was proven that the addition of B4C not only alters the thermal stability but also transforms the mechanism of oxidation. It was absolutely unconcealed that the Ti-6Al-4V-B4C ﬁlm oxidization may be a multi-staged procedure subject on the heating rate. An occurrence of formal treatment for obtaining Kissinger’s assessment mechanics for various oxidization levels is additionally valid. The addition of B4C was supported to enhance the nanohardness of the coating. The morphology, composition and structure of the thin film coatings were examined by way of SEM, AFM and XRD.

Resumo A dioctofimose é causada por Dioctophyme renale, um nematódeo que geralmente afeta o rim direito de carnívoros. Este trabalho objetivou relatar o caso de um cão, com perda de peso progressiva e abaulamento abdominal, diagnosticado com dioctofimose. O paciente foi submetido a tratamento cirúrgico, o que permitiu o achado de 34 nematódeos, sendo 18 fêmeas e 16 machos, com tamanho máximo de 74 centímetros. Os parasitos encontravam-se livres na cavidade abdominal e no interior do rim direito, causando peritonite, formação de líquido livre, intensas aderências entre os órgãos abdominais e uma perfuração renal. Parasitoses com alto número de exemplares dessa espécie são incomuns em cães. Cursam com reação inflamatória, com consequente formação de aderências e tecido granulomatoso, envolvendo os ovos eliminados na cavidade abdominal pelos parasitos livres. A doença é frequente na cidade de Pelotas, Rio Grande do Sul, Brasil, área de origem da paciente afetada. De acordo com a pesquisa realizada, acredita-se que esse é o caso com o maior número de exemplares de D. renale removidos de um cão in vivo.

Abstract Dioctophymosis is caused by Dioctophyme renale, a nematode that usually affects the right kidney of carnivores. The aim of this study was to report on a case of a dog with progressive weight loss and swollen abdomen that was diagnosed as presenting dioctophymosis. The patient underwent surgical treatment through which 34 nematodes were found, of which 18 were female and 16 were male, with a maximum length of 74 centimeters. The parasites were free in the abdominal cavity and inside the right kidney, and had caused peritonitis, free fluid, severe adherences between the abdominal organs and renal perforation. Parasitic diseases with a high number of specimens of this species are uncommon in dogs. The disease progresses with an inflammatory reaction and consequent formation of adherences and granulomatous tissue. This surrounds the eggs that were eliminated in the abdominal cavity by the free parasites. This disease occurs frequently in the city of Pelotas, Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil, where the patient of this report was living. To the best of authors’ knowledge, this is the case with the largest number of specimens of D. renale removed from a single dog in vivo.

Resumo Fundamento: A avaliação funcional para descartar a isquemia miocárdica utilizando a angiotomografia computadorizada (angio-TC) de coronárias é de extrema importância e dados na população brasileira ainda são escassos. Objetivo: Avaliar o desempenho diagnóstico da perfusão miocárdica pela angio-TC de coronárias na detecção de doença arterial coronariana (DAC) obstrutiva significativa em comparação com a tomografia computadorizada por emissão de fóton único (SPECT; do inglês, single photon emission computerized tomography). Analisar a importância do conhecimento anatômico para entender a presença de defeito de perfusão miocárdica pela SPECT que não é identificado pela tomografia computadorizada (TC). Método: Trinta e cinco pacientes foram avaliados por um protocolo de estresse farmacológico simultâneo. O teste exato de Fisher foi utilizado para comparação entre as proporções. Os pacientes foram agrupados de acordo com a presença ou não de DAC significativa. A área sob a curva foi utilizada para identificar o desempenho diagnóstico da avaliação da perfusão pela angio-TC de coronárias e pela SPECT. Os valores de p < 0,05 foram considerados estatisticamente significativos. Resultados: Para detecção de DAC obstrutiva a avaliação da perfusão miocárdica pela TC teve uma área sob a curva de 0,84 [intervalo de confiança de 95% (IC95%): 0,67 a 0,94, p < 0,001]. Já o estudo da perfusão miocárdica pela SPECT foi de 0,58 (IC95%: 0,40 a 0,74, p < 0,001). Neste estudo, foram descritos falso-positivos pela SPECT. Conclusão: A avaliação da perfusão miocárdica pela angio-TC apresenta resultados satisfatórios em comparação com os da SPECT na detecção de DAC obstrutiva. A angio-TC de coronárias tem capacidade de afastar falso-positivos da SPECT.

Abstract Background: Functional assessment to rule out myocardial ischemia using coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) is extremely important and data on the Brazilian population are still limited. Objective: To assess the diagnostic performance of myocardial perfusion by CCTA in the detection of severe obstructive coronary artery disease (CAD) compared with single-photon emission computerized tomography (SPECT). To analyze the importance of anatomical knowledge to understand the presence of myocardial perfusion defects on SPECT imaging that is not identified on computed tomography (CT) scan. Method: A total of 35 patients were evaluated by a simultaneous pharmacologic stress protocol. Fisher’s exact test was used to compare proportions. The patients were grouped according to the presence or absence of significant CAD. The area under the ROC curve was used to identify the diagnostic performance of CCTA and SPECT in perfusion assessment. P < 0.05 values were considered statistically significant. Results: For detection of obstructive CAD, CT myocardial perfusion analysis yielded an area under the ROC curve of 0.84 [a 95% confidence interval (CI95%): 0.67-0.94, p < 0.001]. SPECT myocardial perfusion imaging, on the other hand, showed an AUC of 0.58 (95% CI 0.40 - 0.74, p < 0.001). In this study, false-positive results with SPECT are described. Conclusion: Myocardial perfusion analysis by CTA displays satisfactory results compared to SPECT in the detection of obstructive CAD. CCTA can rule out false-positive results of SPECT.

RESUMO Introdução: A trombose arterial é considerada uma doença multifatorial, resultante da interação de fatores de risco genéticos e adquiridos. Objetivos: O objetivo deste estudo foi investigar a presença dos polimorfismos nos genes do inibidor da ativação do plasminogênio tipo 1 (PAI-1) e da apolipoproteína E (ApoE), bem como suas interações com níveis de PAI-1 e lipídios e perfis de apolipoproteína, respectivamente, além das frequências desses polimorfismos e sua associação com trombose. Métodos: Noventa e sete pacientes [48 com acidente vascular cerebral isquêmico arterial (AVC) e 49 com doença arterial periférica (DAP)], tratados no serviço médico de hematologia, foram incluídos neste estudo. Os polimorfismos também foram investigados em 201 indivíduos-controle. Os polimorfismos foram investigados por reação em cadeia da polimerase-fragmento de restrição polimorfismo (PCR-RFLP). Resultados: Para o polimorfismo PAI-1, havia 54,2% genótipos heterozigotos (HT) e 12,5% genótipos de homozigoto (HM) no grupo dos pacientes, e 52,7% genótipos HT e 21,3% genótipos HM nos grupos-controle. Para o polimorfismo da ApoE, havia 56,3% (ε3ε3), 6,3% (ε4ε4), 8,3% (ε2ε3), 4,2% (ε2ε4) e 24,9% (ε3ε4) nos pacientes, e 61,2% (ε3ε3), 4,5% (ε4ε4), 8% (ε2ε3), 4,5% (ε2ε4) e 21,8% (ε3ε4) nos controles. Conclusão: Nenhuma diferença significativa foi observada comparando pacientes e controles. Neste estudo, não foi encontrada associação entre a presença dos polimorfismos avaliados e a ocorrência de eventos trombóticos.

ABSTRACT Introduction: Arterial thrombosis is considered a multifactorial disease, resulting from the interaction of genetic and acquired risk factors. Objectives: The aim of this study was to investigate the presence of the polymorphism in inhibitor of plasminogen activator type 1 (PAI-1) and apolipoprotein E (ApoE) genes and its interactions with PAI-1 levels and lipids and apolipoprotein profiles, respectively, as well as the frequencies of these polymorphisms and their association with thrombosis. Methods: Ninety-seven patients [48 with arterial ischemic stroke (IS) and 49 with peripheral arterial disease (PAD)], treated at the hematology medical service were included in this study. Polymorphisms were also investigated in 201 control subjects. Polymorphisms were investigated by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP). Results: For the PAI-1 polymorphism, there were 54.2% heterozygous (HT) genotypes and 12.5% homozygous (HM) genotypes in the patients' group, and 52.7% HT genotypes and 21.3% HM genotypes in the controls. For the ApoE polymorphism, there were 56.3% (ε3ε3), 6.3% (ε4ε4), 8.3% (ε2ε3), 4.2% (ε2ε4) and 24.9% (ε3ε4) in the patients, and 61.2% (ε3ε3), 4.5% (ε4ε4), 8% (ε2ε3), 4.5% (ε2ε4) and 21.8% (ε3ε4) in the controls. Conclusion: No significant difference was observed by comparing patients and controls. In this study, no association was found between the presence of the evaluated polymorphisms and the occurrence of thrombotic events.

RESUMO Objetivou-se neste trabalho avaliar o desempenho de cultivares de cebola em função do espaçamento entre plantas. O delineamento experimental utilizado foi em blocos casualizados completos em esquema fatorial 3 x 4 com quatro repetições. Os tratamentos foram constituídos da combinação de três cultivares de cebola (Vale Ouro IPA 11, Serena e Rio das Antas) e quatro espaçamentos entre plantas (3, 6, 8 e 10 cm). As características avaliadas foram: produtividades total, comercial e não comercial de bulbos, porcentagens de bulbos das classes 1, 2, 3 e 4, massa média de bulbos, massa seca de bulbos. Nos cultivos de cebola de forma adensados, as cultivares Rio das Antas e Serena são as mais indicadas, com as maiores produtividades comerciais, respectivamente nos espaçamentos de 6 e 3 cm entre plantas. A cultivar Vale Ouro IPA 11 apresentou maior produtividade comercial no espaçamento de 5 cm entre plantas.

ABSTRACT The objective of this study was to evaluate the performance of onion cultivars as a function of the spacing between plants. The experimental design was a complete randomized block in a 3 x 4 factorial scheme, with four replicates. The treatments were composed of the combination between three onion cultivars (Vale Ouro IPA 11, Serena and Rio das Antas) and four plant spacings (3, 6, 8 and 10 cm). The evaluated characteristics were total, marketable and unmarketable yield of bulbs, percentages of bulbs in classes 1, 2, 3 and 4, bulb mean weight, bulb dry weight. In onion cultivation, the cultivars Rio das Antas and Serena are the most indicated, with the highest marketable yields at 6 and 3 cm spacings between plants, respectively. The cultivar Vale Ouro IPA 11 presented higher marketable yield for the spacing of 5 cm between plants.

RESUMO: Objetivou se neste estudo avaliar a proporção de larvas de Ceratitis capitata e fêmeas de Diachasmimorpha longicaudata que resulta no incremento do parasitismo e da produção de fêmeas na progênie. Foram utilizadas fêmeas de Diachasmimorpha longicaudata copuladas, com experiência em parasitar e oito dias de idade, e larvas de terceiro instar de C. capitata, provenientes da criação mantida no Laboratório de Controle Biológico da Universidade Estadual de Montes Claros (UNIMONTES). Cinco densidades de larvas de C. capitata foram oferecidas (10, 20, 30, 40 e 50) às fêmeas do parasitoide, em cinco densidades diferentes (1, 2, 5, 10 e 15). As larvas foram expostas às fêmeas do parasitoide por meio de “unidades de parasitismo”, em gaiolas adaptadas, pelo tempo determinado de uma hora. Foram avaliadas as variáveis: razão sexual, porcentagem de parasitismo e mortalidade pupal. Tanto a densidade de larvas de C. capitata quanto a densidade de fêmeas do parasitoide influenciaram no parasitismo, na produção de fêmeas na progênie e na mortalidade pupal. Foi observada nas proporções 1:1 e 1:2 (larvas/fêmeas) maior produção de fêmeas na progênie. Proporções acima de 1:2 reduziram a razão sexual, e valores abaixo de 1:1 causaram altas porcentagens de mortalidade pupal. As fêmeas apresentaram maior atividade de parasitismo quando estavam em grupos dividindo o mesmo espaço. Proporções iguais de larvas de C. capitata e fêmeas do parasitoide resultaram em melhor eficiência na produção de fêmeas na progênie.

ABSTRACT: The objective of the present study was to evaluate the ratio of Ceratitis capitata larvae/female of Diachasmimorpha longicaudata that results in the increase of parasitism and the production of females in the progeny. We used 8-day-old copulated D. longicaudata females with oviposition parasite experience and third instar larvae of C. capitata from rearing stock maintained at the Laboratory of Biological Control of Universidade Estadual de Montes Claros (Unimontes). Five densities of C. capitata larvae (10, 20, 30, 40, and 50) were offered to parasitoid females that were at five different densities (1, 2, 5, 10, and 15). The larvae were exposed to the parasitoid females by means of “parasitism units” in adapted cages for 1 hour. Sex ratio, percentage of parasitism, and pupal mortality were evaluated. Both host larval density and female parasite density influenced parasitism, female progeny production, and pupal mortality. Higher female production was observed in the progeny in ratios of 1:1 and 2:1 (larvae/females). Ratios above 1:2 reduced the sex ratio, and ratios below 1:1 caused high pupal mortality rates. The females had higher parasitism activity when they were in groups dividing the same space. Equal ratios of Ceratitis capitata larvae and parasitoid females resulted in improved efficiency in progeny females.

RESUMO Este trabalho objetivou avaliar o crescimento e sobrevivência de sete espécies arbóreas nativas em diferentes tratamentos, em uma área degradada na Reserva da COPASA (Juramento, MG). Para tal, foram utilizados aproximadamente 1,2 ha da área, onde foram plantadas 899 mudas, de sete espécies nativas (Anadenanthera colubrina, Copaifera langsdorffii, Dilodendron bipinatum, Myracrodruon urundeuva, Pterogyne nitens, Schinopsis brasiliensis e Senegalia polyphylla), acompanhadas durante 24 meses. A área foi dividida em cinco parcelas de 0,24 ha, que representaram os seguintes tratamentos: (T1) parcela semeada com capim (Brachiaria sp.); (T2) parcela onde as covas foram tratadas com condicionador de solo; (T3) parcela semeada com capim consorciado com leguminosa (Cajanus cajan); (T4) parcela semeada com leguminosa; e (T5) controle. A porcentagem de mortalidade foi maior no T2 e menor no T3, sendo as espécies C. langsdorffii (43,66%) e S. brasiliensis (11,64%) aquelas com maior e menor porcentagem de mortalidade, respectivamente. O crescimento (altura e diâmetro) das mudas foi maior no T2 (24,32 ± 26,05 cm e 0,51 ± 0,37 mm, respectivamente) e menor no T1 (10,82 ± 22,57 cm e 0,26 ± 0,27 mm; respectivamente). As espécies com maior crescimento em altura foram A. colubrina e S. polyphylla, já D. bipinatum e S. brasiliensis apresentaram maior crescimento em diâmetro. Pterogyne nitens apresentou o menor crescimento, além de alta mortalidade, mostrando baixa capacidade de estabelecimento em ambientes degradados.

ABSTRACT This study aimed to evaluate the growth and survival of seven native tree species in different treatments in a degraded area at COPASA Reserve (Juramento, MG). Approximately 1.2 ha area was used, where 899 seedlings were planted of seven native species (Anadenanthera colubrina, Copaifera langsdorffii, Dilodendron bipinatum, Miracrodruon urundeuva, Pterogyne nitens, Schinopsis brasiliensis and Senegalia polyphylla) followed for 24 months. The area was divided into five plots of 0.24 ha, which represented the following treatments: (T1) plot sown with grass (Brachiaria sp.); (T2) plot where the pits were treated with soil conditioner; (T3) plot sown with grass and legumes (Cajanus cajan) together; (T4) plot sown with legumes; and (T5) control. The mortality percentage was higher in T2 and lower in T3, and the species C. langsdorffii (43.66%) and S. brasiliensis (11.64%) were the ones with higher and lower mortality rate, respectively. The growth (height and diameter) of seedlings was higher in T2 (24.32 ± 26.05 cm and 0.51 ± 0.37 mm; respectively) and lowest in T1 (10,82 ± 22,57 cm and 0,26 ± 0,27 mm; respectively). The species with the largest growth in height were A. colubrina and S. polyphylla, and D. bipinatum and S. brasiliensis showed the highest growth in diameter. Pterogyne nitens showed the lowest growth, and highest mortality, presenting low ability to establish in degraded environments.

Foram estudados, sob a ótica de seus fluxos energéticos, três sistemas de cultivo de café arábica no Estado do Espírito Santo: a - cultivo convencional (CC); b - cultivo com as boas práticas agrícolas (BPA), e c – cultivo orgânico (CO). A análise foi realizada para comparar os fluxos energéticos envolvidos nos sistemas de produção, a fim de apresentar os níveis de sustentabilidade de cada sistema, com base em dados médios obtidos em diversas unidades de produção de base familiar. Os indicadores analisados foram: Produtividade, Eficiência Energética Total Invertida (ETI), Eficiência Energética Café Maduro (ECC) e Eficiência Energia não Renovável (ENR). O sistema de CO apresentou valores para ETI, ECC e ENR de 3,3; 4,7 e 7,9, respectivamente. O sistema de CC apresentou valores para ETI, ECC e ENR de 1,8; 1,9 e 1,6; respectivamente. O sistema de BPA apresentou valores para ETI, ECC e ENR de 0,7; 1,3 e 1,4; respectivamente. A maior produtividade ocorreu no sistema de BPA, com 1794 kg ha-1(17.455 MJ); no entanto, o referido consome mais energia do que converte. Do ponto de vista energético, o sistema de CO é o mais sustentável.

Three growing systems of Arabica coffee were evaluated under the energy perspective, in the state of Espírito Santo in Brazil. The systems are conventional cultivation (CC), cultivation with good agricultural practices (CGP) and organic farming (OF). It was made a comparison of the energy flows within these three systems to show sustainable levels of each one based on production average data of several family-farming units. Therefore, we analyzed crop yield, total energy efficiency reverse (TEER), energy efficiency of ripe coffee (EERC) and non-renewable energy efficiency (NREE). OF system had values for TEER, EERC and NREE of 3.3 4.7 and 7.9 respectively. Yet CC showed values of 1.8, 1.9 and 1.6 for TEER, EERC and NREE respectively. Furthermore, CGP presented values for TEER, EERC and NREE of 0.7, 1.3 and 1.4 respectively. The highest yield was observed in CGP, reaching an amount of 1794 kg ha-1(17,455 MJ); however, this system expends more energy than it converts. Thus, over those points, OF is the most sustainable system.

Ácidos galoilquínicos, substâncias que têm apresentado atividade leishmanicida, foram isolados do extrato de acetato de etila da planta Byrsonima coccolobifolia. Estes compostos fenólicos juntamente com o ácido gálico demonstraram ser uma nova classe de inibidores não-competitivos potentes em arginase (ARG) de Leishmania amazonensis (Ki variando de 0,10 a 0,68 µmol L-1). O ácido quínico não apresentou atividade inibitória significativa em ARG demonstrando que a unidade galoila tem características importantes que permitem a interação enzima-inibidor. A atividade inibitória significativa do ácido gálico frente à ARG pode ser uma indicação para o entendimento da resposta imune previamente observada em Leishmania donovani, uma vez que a atividade enzimática da arginase está associada à diminuição dos níveis de NO no processo de infecção por Leishmania.

Leishmanicidal galloylquinic acids were isolated from the ethyl acetate extract of Byrsonima coccolobifolia. These phenols and gallic acid showed to be a new class of potent noncompetitive inhibitors of arginase ARG (Ki ranging from 0.10 to 0.68 µmol L-1) from Leishmania amazonensis. Quinic acid did not exhibit significant inhibition of ARG, indicating that galloyl moiety has important features that allows the enzyme-inhibitor interactions. The significant inhibitory activity of gallic acid on ARG can be a clue to understand the immune response previously observed on L. donovani, since ARG activity is associated with the decrease of the levels of NO in Leishmania infection.
