Resumo Introdução As diretrizes sobre rinite alergica visam atualizar os conhecimentos sobre a doença e os cuidados para com esses pacientes. A iniciativa designada "Rinite Alergica e seu Impacto na Asma", cujo relatorio inicial foi publicado em 2001 e atualizada em 2008 e 2010, tem sido muito bem sucedida na disseminaçao de informaçoes e evidencias, bem como na formulaçao da classificaçao de gravidade e proposta de sistematizaçao do tratamento. Entretanto, visando a participaçao de outros profissionais medicos no atendimento da rinite alergica, e importante o desenvolvimento de algoritmos que indiquem com precisao o que deve e pode ser feito regionalmente. Objetivo Atualizar o III Consenso Brasileiro sobre Rinites-2012, com elaboraçao de algoritmo para conduta da rinite alergica. Método Foram convidados 24 especialistas indicados pelas Associaçao Brasileira de Alergia e Imunologia, Associaçao Brasileira de Otorrinolaringologia e Cirurgia Cervico-Facial e Sociedade Brasileira de Pediatria para atualizaçao do documento de 2012. Resultados A atualizaçao do ultimo Consenso Brasileiro sobre Rinites, incorporou e adaptou para a realidade brasileira as informaçoes relevantes publicadas em todos os documentos da Iniciativa "Rinite Alergica e seu Impacto na Asma", trazendo novos conceitos como a rinite alergica local, novos medicamentos e metodos de avaliaçao de tratamento. Conclusão Proposto um fluxograma de tratamento para a rinite alergica.
Abstract Introduction The guidelines on allergic rhinitis aim to update knowledge about the disease and care for affected patients. The initiative called "Allergic Rhinitis and its Impact on Asthma", initially published in 2001 and updated in 2008 and 2010, has been very successful in disseminating information and evidence, as well as providing a classification of severity and proposing a systemized treatment protocol. In order to include the participation of other medical professionals in the treatment of allergic rhinitis, it is important to develop algorithms that accurately indicate what should and can be done regionally. Objective To update the III Brazilian Consensus on Rhinitis - 2012, with the creation of an algorithm for allergic rhinitis management. Methods We invited 24 experts nominated by the Brazilian Association of Allergy and Immunology, Brazilian Association of Otorhinolaryngology and Head and Neck Surgery and Brazilian Society of Pediatrics to update the 2012 document. Results The update of the last Brazilian Consensus on Rhinitis incorporated and adapted the relevant information published in all "Allergic Rhinitis and its Impact on Asthma" Initiative documents to the Brazilian scenario, bringing new concepts such as local allergic rhinitis, new drugs and treatment evaluation methods. Conclusion A flowchart for allergic rhinitis treatment has been proposed.

Resumo Um levantamento atualizado das plantas com sementes e análises relevantes acerca desta biodiversidade são apresentados. Este trabalho se iniciou em 2010 com a publicação do Catálogo de Plantas e Fungos e, desde então vem sendo atualizado por mais de 430 especialistas trabalhando online. O Brasil abriga atualmente 32.086 espécies nativas de Angiospermas e 23 espécies nativas de Gimnospermas e estes novos dados mostram um aumento de 3% da riqueza em relação a 2010. A Amazônia é o Domínio Fitogeográfico com o maior número de espécies de Gimnospermas, enquanto que a Floresta Atlântica possui a maior riqueza de Angiospermas. Houve um crescimento considerável no número de espécies e nas taxas de endemismo para a maioria dos Domínios (Caatinga, Cerrado, Floresta Atlântica, Pampa e Pantanal), com exceção da Amazônia que apresentou uma diminuição de 2,5% de endemicidade. Entretanto, a maior parte das plantas com sementes que ocorrem no Brasil (57,4%) é endêmica deste território. A proporção de formas de vida varia de acordo com os diferentes Domínios: árvores são mais expressivas na Amazônia e Floresta Atlântica do que nos outros biomas, ervas são dominantes no Pampa e as lianas apresentam riqueza expressiva na Amazônia, Floresta Atlântica e Pantanal. Este trabalho não só quantifica a biodiversidade brasileira, mas também indica as lacunas de conhecimento e o desafio a ser enfrentado para a conservação desta flora.
Abstract An updated inventory of Brazilian seed plants is presented and offers important insights into the country's biodiversity. This work started in 2010, with the publication of the Plants and Fungi Catalogue, and has been updated since by more than 430 specialists working online. Brazil is home to 32,086 native Angiosperms and 23 native Gymnosperms, showing an increase of 3% in its species richness in relation to 2010. The Amazon Rainforest is the richest Brazilian biome for Gymnosperms, while the Atlantic Rainforest is the richest one for Angiosperms. There was a considerable increment in the number of species and endemism rates for biomes, except for the Amazon that showed a decrease of 2.5% of recorded endemics. However, well over half of Brazillian seed plant species (57.4%) is endemic to this territory. The proportion of life-forms varies among different biomes: trees are more expressive in the Amazon and Atlantic Rainforest biomes while herbs predominate in the Pampa, and lianas are more expressive in the Amazon, Atlantic Rainforest, and Pantanal. This compilation serves not only to quantify Brazilian biodiversity, but also to highlight areas where there information is lacking and to provide a framework for the challenge faced in conserving Brazil's unique and diverse flora.

The indirect measurement of chlorophyll is a diagnostic method of nitrogen in plants and its accuracy can be influenced by hour at which the reading is taken, the position of the leaflets in the plant and the portion where it is done on the leaflet reading. The objective was to evaluate the effect of hour reading, the position of the terminal leaflet on the leaf and the portion of the leaflet in the indirect of estimation of chlorophyll content index (CCI) with the use of chlorophyll meter. The experiment was performed with the cultivation of potato (S. tuberosum L.), Agate variety in the county of Ituverava São Paulo state, Brazil and consisted of 27 treatments in a factorial scheme 3 x 3 x 3 with four replications of 16 plant each, with a random distribution. The treatments were: three assessment times (08:00 am, 12:00 pm and 4:00 p.m.), three positions of leaflets on leafs (third, fourth and fifth) and three portions of the leaflet (basal, middle and distal). The evaluation of the CCI in the leaves of potato plants should be done in the leaflets of the third and fourth branch from top to bottom, regardless of the portion used leaflets, the 8:00 a.m. hours and 60 days after planting the crop. Indirect quantification of chlorophyll is a reliable tool and with potential to guide management of nitrogen fertilizer for crop.
La medición indirecta de la clorofila es un método de diagnóstico del nitrógeno en plantas y su precisión puede ser influenciada por la hora en que se hace la lectura, por la posición del foliolo en la planta y porción donde se realiza la lectura en el foliolo. El objetivo fue evaluar el efecto del horario de lectura, la posición terminal del foliolo en las hojas y la porción del foliolo en la estimación indirecta del Índice de contenido de clorofila (ICC) con el uso del clorofilómetro. El experimento se realizó con el cultivo de papa (S. tuberosum L.), variedad Ágata, en el municipio de Ituverava, estado de São Paulo, Brasil y constó de 27 tratamientos, en un esquema factorial 3 x 3 x 3 con cuatro repeticiones de 16 plantas cada una, con una distribución aleatoria. Los tratamientos fueron: tres horarios de evaluación (08:00 am, 12:00 pm y 16:00 pm), tres posiciones de foliolos en las hojas (tercera, cuarta y quinta) y tres porciones del foliolo (basal, medio y distal). La evaluación del ICC en las hojas de las plantas de papa debe realizarse en los foliolos de la tercera y cuarta hoja, independientemente de las áreas foliares utilizadas, en el horario de las 08:00 am y a los 60 días después de plantado el cultivo. La cuantificación indirecta de la clorofila representa una herramienta fiable y con potencial para guiar el manejo de fertilizante nitrogenado para el cultivo.

O presente trabalho verificou experimentalmente a ecologia da polinização da amoreira-preta (Rubus sp.). Objetivou-se confirmar a síndrome de polinização de Rubus sp., por meio de análise de seu sistema reprodutivo, quantificação da produção diária de néctar, levantamento da entomofauna que visita as flores da amoreira na área de estudo e análise do seu comportamento polinizador. Os experimentos foram realizados em uma área de cultivo de amoreira-preta, no mês de dezembro de 2005, município de Timbó (SC). Constatou-se que a maior taxa de frutificação (48,3 % ± 3,2) ocorreu via polinização livre, onde os insetos não foram excluídos. Foi verificada a ocorrência de autopolinização, porém com taxa inferior de frutificação (12,2% ± 4,9). A anemofilia não foi constatada na espécie. A avaliação da produção de néctar em Rubus sp. resultou em valores compatíveis com a síndrome de melitofilia. Os visitantes florais coletados e observados sobre as flores de Rubus sp. foram predominantemente abelhas da ordem Hymenoptera (97%), que iniciam, em menor número, a atividade de forrageamento às 8h, com pico de atividade às 12h e declinando até às 16h. As coletas resultaram numa amostragem de 1.360 abelhas, divididas em quatro famílias e 13 espécies. A família com maior riqueza de espécies (N = 7) foi Halictidae e a mais abundante foi Apidae, com 1.288 indivíduos. Em Apidae, houve o predomínio da espécie exótica Apis mellifera, cuja representação na amostra foi de 1.246 indivíduos. Os dados da abundância e as observações naturalísticas do seu comportamento da flor apontaram A. mellifera como o principal polinizador de Rubus sp., mas confirmam que as demais espécies de abelhas também participam na polinização de Rubus sp.
The pollination ecology of the blackberry (Rubus sp.) was studied by means of determining its reproductive system, the analysis of flower's nectar production. Sampling the insects that visit the flower of blackberry in a cultivated area and analysis of pollination behavior. The experiments were carried out in an area of blackberry crop, in December of 2005 in the city of Timbó (SC), Southern Brazil. The highest fruit set (48.3% ± 3,2) occurred in the free pollination (natural) treatment where insects were not excluded. The occurrence of selfing was verified, however with o lower fruit set (12.2% ± 4,9). Anemophily was not observed in the species. The nectar evaluation in Rubus sp. resulted in values compatible with the melit tophily syndrome. Bees (Hymenoptera) were the main floral visitors collected and observed on the flowers of Rubus sp., representing 97% of the individuals. They initiate the foraging activity at 8 a.m., with a peak activity at 12 a.m. and declining until 4 p.m. in the survey were sampled 1.360 bees, belonging to four families and 13 species. Halictidae was the family with highest amount of species (N = 7) and Apidae most abundant (1.288 individuals) in the survey. Apidae was mainly represented by Apis mellifera, which is a exotic species, whose sample was of 1.246 individuals. The data of the abundance and the observation of its behavior, pointed A. mellifera as the main pollinator of Rubus sp, in the studied area, but also confirms that the other native species of bees, participate in the pollination process of Rubus sp.

Flight safety is one of the most important and frequently discussed issues in aviation. Recent accident inquiries have raised questions as to how the work of flight crews is organized and the extent to which these conditions may have been contributing factors to accidents. Fatigue is based on physiologic limitations, which are reflected in performance deficits. The purpose of the present study was to provide an analysis of the periods of the day in which pilots working for a commercial airline presented major errors. Errors made by 515 captains and 472 copilots were analyzed using data from flight operation quality assurance systems. To analyze the times of day (shifts) during which incidents occurred, we divided the light-dark cycle (24:00) in four periods: morning, afternoon, night, and early morning. The differences of risk during the day were reported as the ratio of morning to afternoon, morning to night and morning to early morning error rates. For the purposes of this research, level 3 events alone were taken into account, since these were the most serious in which company operational limits were exceeded or when established procedures were not followed. According to airline flight schedules, 35% of flights take place in the morning period, 32% in the afternoon, 26% at night, and 7% in the early morning. Data showed that the risk of errors increased by almost 50% in the early morning relative to the morning period (ratio of 1:1.46). For the period of the afternoon, the ratio was 1:1.04 and for the night a ratio of 1:1.05 was found. These results showed that the period of the early morning represented a greater risk of attention problems and fatigue.

Numerous studies have suggested a substantial genetic contribution in the etiology of the primary form of restless legs syndrome (RLS) and periodic leg movements (PLM). We describe the symptoms, the sleep profiles and physiological parameters of two families in which several members present RLS/PLM. The proband of family 1 is a 70-year-old woman and the proband of family 2 is a 57-year-old woman; both have exhibited the symptoms since the age of 20 years. All patients in both families were diagnosed with RLS according to the criteria of the International RLS Study Group. Polysomnographic recordings were performed to quantify and to describe PLM during sleep. Sleep parameters showed decreased sleep efficiency, increased sleep latency in the arousal index and the presence of PLM in all subjects. One of the families showed an exact profile of dominant inheritance with anticipation of age at onset. In the other family, the founders were blood relatives and there was no affected member in the third generation suggesting a recessive mode of inheritance. RLS/PLM is a prevalent sleep disorder affecting about 5 to 15% of the population and one that substantially impairs healthy sleep patterns. Efforts to understand the underlying pathophysiology will contribute to improve the sleep and life quality of these patients.

Foram utilizadas 30 vacas gestantes da raça Canchim, mantidas em sistema de pastejo rotativo intensivo de capim-marandu, que receberam suplemento alimentar para manutenção de peso corporal durante a estação seca. Para avaliar as recomendações do Agricultural and Food Research Council, quanto ao fornecimento de substrato dietético para o crescimento da microbiota ruminal, os animais foram distribuídos em um delineamento inteiramente ao acaso (três tratamentos x dez repetições), de acordo com os seguintes tratamentos: controle (sem restrição do requerimento microbiano de proteína degradável e energia fermentável); restrição do requerimento microbiano de proteína degradável; e restrição do requerimento microbiano de energia metabolizável fermentável. Os suplementos foram compostos com silagem de milho, milho moído e soja integral, cujas quantidades predeterminadas foram fornecidas aos animais diariamente às 10 h. O período de avaliação teve duração de 192 dias, durante o qual foram efetuadas pesagens dos animais no início/término de cada um dos quatro subperíodos experimentais estabelecidos. A avaliação dos resultados indicou que não houve diferença no desempenho dos animais que receberam os diferentes suplementos com médias de ganho de peso corporal de 0,18; 0,02; e 0,12 kg/cab/dia para os respectivos tratamentos descritos. Concluiu-se que a limitação do crescimento da microbiota ruminal por meio da redução dos aportes de energia fermentável ou proteína degradável não interferiu no desempenho de vacas Canchim durante o período seco.
Thirty pregnant Canchim cows were maintained in a rotational grazing system of Marandu grass and received supplemental feed to body weight maintenance during the dry season. With the aim to evaluate the Agricultural and Food Research Council recommendations about supplying dietary substrate to ruminal microbial growth, the animals were allotted to a completely randomized design (3 treatments x 10 replications), according to the following treatments: control (without restriction of microbial requirements of degradable protein and fermentable energy); restriction of microbial requirement of degradable protein; and restriction of microbial requirement of fermentable metabolizable energy. The supplements were composed of corn silage, corn ground and whole soybean, in which determinate amounts were fed daily to animals at 10 a.m. The evaluation period lasted 192 days and the animals were weighed at beginning/end of each one of four experimental subperiods established. The evaluated results indicated that there were no differences on performance of the animals of different treatments with body weight gain of 0.18, 0.02, and 0.12 kg/head/day in respective treatments described. It was concluded that the limitation of ruminal microbial growth through reducing of fermentable energy and degradable protein supplies did not affect the performance of Canchim cows during the dry season.

We report that immune complexes of IgM (ICIgM) antibodies and ovalbumin in the form of a precipitate from the equivalence zone induce the generation of reactive oxygen species by rabbit blood polymorphonuclear leucocytes (PMN), as measured by the chemiluminescence (CL) production in the presence of luminol. The kinetics of CL generation induced by ICIgM is quite different from that induced by precipitated immune complexes of IgG (ICIgG): the maximum rate of CL production for ICIgM occurs around 14 min, whereas for ICIgG it occurs about 5 min after incubation with the cells. Also the triggering of the process requires a higher concentration of ICIgM than of ICIgG. Evidence is presented that these effects are not mediated by interaction of the antigen (ovalbumin) with the cell, since immune precipitates of ovalbumin and the F(ab')2 fragment had no effect. Our observations that precipitated ICIgM can also be an effective stimulus for CL generation and thus for O2- production reveal a new functional capability of PMN. These results may have implications for the understanding of the participation of ICIgM (as well as of ICIgG) in inflammatory reactions mediated by PMN in immune complex diseases, and in the mechanisms of defense against microbes and other non-self agents.

O efeito letal de uma isca para R. prolixus, contendo suspensão aquosa de Hexaclorociclohexano (HCH), na concentração de 1g/l e mantida em temperatura ambiente, foi estudado no laboratório, por um período de 12 semanas. A suspensão foi colocada em uma bolsa de latex, que ficou sempre com o mesmo conteúdo durante 85 dias, pendurada na parede de um becker de 1000ml. Dezesseis grupos de R. prolixus, com média de 30 exemplares cada, sucederam-se um após o outro, sendo cada grupo observado em diferentes intervalos de tempo, durante uma semana. A taxa de mortalidade foi de 100% em todos os grupos, exceto no 16º, que apresentou 96,7% de mortes nesse intervalo de tempo. À medida que os grupos se sucediam, a mortalidade passou a ocorrer mais rapidamente, acentuando-se no intervalo de 6h a 24h. Testes posteriores, um com início às 6h e outro às 18h, mostraram que a periodicidade (diurna e noturna) na oferta do alimento não interferiu na mortalidade. As ninfas de 1º e 2º instares e adultos foram mais sensíveis e as de 5º instar mais resistentes ao inseticida.
The lethal effect of a bait containing an aqueous hexachlorocyclohexane (HCH) suspension at the concentration of 1g/l and maintained at room temperature was studied in the laboratory over a period of 12 weeks. The suspension was placed in a latex bag hanging inside a 1000-ml beaker tightly covered with nylon netting, and left there with no changes for 85 days. Sixteen groups of R. prolixas bugs, consisting on average of 30 specimens each, were successively exposed to the bait and observed at different intervals for one week each. The mortality rate was 100% for all groups, except for the 16th, whose mortality rate was 96.7%. As the groups succeeded one another, mortality started to occur more rapidly and was more marked at the 6- and 24-h intervals. Later tests respectively started at 6:00 a.m. and 6:00 p.m. showed that diurnal and nocturnal periodicity in the offer of food had no effect on mortality. First- and 2nd- instar nymphs and adults male were more sensitive and 5th- instar nymphs were more resistant to the active principle of the bait.
