The common bean cultivar "BRSMG Realce", recommended for the state of Minas Gerais, has high yield potential and resistance to powdery mildew, bacterial wilt and to anthracnose pathotypes 65, 73, 77, 81, 91, 475 and 479. The plants and pods are high, resulting in lower loss during mechanical harvest.

O objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar a estabilidade e adaptabilidade de genótipos, do programa de melhoramento genético do feijoeiro-comum, da Embrapa Arroz e Feijão, e comparar os métodos de AMMI (análise da interação multiplicativa e dos efeitos principais aditivos), de Lin & Binns e de Eberhart & Russell. Os ensaios foram compostos de 20 genótipos (grupos comerciais de grão preto, carioca, roxo, jalo e rajado), avaliados em 22 ensaios, na época das águas (safra) e na seca (safrinha) dos anos de 2002, 2003 e 2004, nos estados do Paraná, Santa Catarina e São Paulo. Foi encontrada baixa associação entre os métodos AMMI e Lin & Binns (r = 0,39), e AMMI e Eberhart & Russell (r = 0,40). Não houve correlação entre Lin & Binns e Eberhart & Russell. Os genótipos mais estáveis e produtivos, para tipo de grão comercial carioca são: as cultivares BRS Requinte e a linhagem CNFC 8075; para tipo de grão comercial preto, as cultivares BRS Supremo e BRS Campeiro; e para tipos de grãos comerciais roxo e rosinha, a cultivar BRS Vereda.

The objective of this work was to evaluate the stability and adaptability of genotypes of the common bean breeding program of Embrapa Arroz e Feijão, and to compare the methods AMMI, Lin & Binns and Eberhart & Russell. Twenty breeding lines and cultivars, belonging to the following commercial group of grain: black, carioca, pink, jalo, and pinto, were evaluated in 22 variety trials, during the rainy and dry seasons of 2002, 2003 and 2004, in the states of Santa Catarina, Paraná and São Paulo. There was low association between the methods AMMI and Lin& Binns (r = 0.39) and AMMI and Eberhart & Russell (r = 0.40); and no correlation between Lin & Binns and Eberhart & Russell. The most stable and productive genotypes commercial grains were: BRS Requinte and the breeding line CNFC 8075 for carioca type; BRS Supremo and BRS Campeiro for black type; and BRS Vereda for pink type.

Tuberculosis causes pulmonary structural and functional disorders, persisting even after bacterological cure (sequelaes). Hemoptysis is frequent and causes great morbidity and increase health services demand. Objective: To know the epidemiological characteristics and risk factors, a descriptive, analytic study was carried out with unique cohort method of patients from Tuberculosis Control Programme (PCT) of the Hospital Nacional Cayetano Heredia (HNCH) between january 1984 and december 1996. Home visits were programmed. Material and Method: We evaluated 109 patients. A baciloscopy assay was done for symptomatic patients. Results: Hemoptysis was found in 15 cases (13.76%), 7 of them had bacteriological relapse. Baciloscopy was negative in all of cases. Hemoptysis was more frequent in males (p = 0.0017. RR = 10.61) and in the group of < 28 years (p = 0.022 RR = 2.92). The incidence was major in the first and fourth years after treatment finish. None of the factors potencially cause of lung disease previous to tuberculosis diagnostic show assotiation with hemoptysis. Twelve cases (80%) appeared in 3 years after treatment finish. Bloody sputum in the first tuberculosis episode show assotiation with the presence of hemoptysis after PCT discharge (p = 0.036 RR = 2.75). Hemoptysis was more frequent in patients who persist sypmtomatic after treatment finish. A relevant result was the finding of the important assotiation between hemoptysis and bacteriological relapse after the treatment finish (p < 0.0001 RR = 7.8). Conclusion: In patients discharged from PCT of HNCH, the hemoptysis prevalence is 13.76% and the risk is increased in males, age minor than 28 years, patients with bloody sputum in the first tuberculosis episode, patients who persist symptomatic after discharge and patients who have bacteriological relapse.

La tuberculosis produce alteraciones estructurales y de función pulmonar que persisten pese a la cura bacteriológica (secuelas). La hemoptisis es frecuente y causa gran morbilidad y demanda a los servicios de salud. Objetivo: Con el propósito de conocer sus características epidemiológicas y sus factores de riesgo, se diseñó un estudio descriptivo, analítico, con metodología de cohorte única de casos en el Programa de Control de Tuberculosis (PCT), en el Hospital Nacional Cayetano Heredia (HNCH) entre enero de 1984 y diciembre de 1996. Material y Método : Se programó visitas domiciliarias evaluando 109. Se realizó una prueba de baciloscopía en los pacientes sintomáticos. Resultados: Hemoptisis estuvo presente en 15 casos (13.76%), de los cuales 7 experimentaron recaída bacteriológica. Todos los casos tuvieron baciloscopía negativa al momento de la encuesta. Se encontró mayor frecuencia en varones (p = 0.0017 RR = 10.61) y en el grupo etáreo < 28 años (p = 0.022 RR = 2.92). Se tuvo mayor incidencia en el primer y cuarto año luego del alta. Doce casos (80%) aparecieron en los primeros tres años. Ningún factor previo al diagnóstico se asoció con hemoptisis luego del alta. Esputo hemoptoico en el cuadro inicial de tuberculosis se asoció con la presencia de hemoptisis luego del alta (p = 0.036 RR = 2.75). Hemoptisis fue estadísticamente más frecuente en pacientes que persisten sintomáticos luego del alta (tos y expectoración crónicas y ataques de sibilancias y disnea). Se observó una fuerte asociación entre recaída bacteriológica y presencia de hemoptisis luego del alta (p < 0.0001 RR = 7.8). Conclusiones: En pacientes dados de alta del PCT del HNCH, la prevalencia de hemoptisis es 13.76%, teniendo más riesgo los varones, el grupo etáreo menor de 28 años, los pacientes que presentan esputo hemoptoico en el cuadro inicial de tuberculosis, los que permanecen sintomáticos luego del alta y los que experimentan al menos un episodio de recaída bacteriológica.
