Abstract We investigated Aspidosperma discolor fruiting in three subpopulations in the inland Atlantic Forest of Northeastern Brazil, to better understand how local and global factors (such as the El Niño Southern Oscillation - ENSO) drive fruiting, and how functional traits are related to its dispersal potential and spatial distribution. Observations of mature fruits with dispersing seeds were carried out between 1993 and 2012. Dispersal potential was evaluated using seeds released at two different heights. Spatial distribution was analyzed using the Standardized Morisita dispersal index. A. discolor displayed seasonal fruiting during the dry season in all subpopulations, with variations in their average dates but without significant interannual variations in the proportions of fruiting individuals. The undulate seeds had average dispersal distances between 57.36 and 79.54 m. We found a random distribution pattern of the trees. The seasonal dry/rainy regime influenced fruiting and dispersal patterns, and seeds were released during the dry season (even in ENSO years). So, we demonstrate the importance of wind dispersal as a driving factor of fruiting, associated with an abiotic filter (low humidity) during the dry season. Additionally, the aerodynamic nature of the undulate diaspore and its dispersal potential influenced the random pattern of spatial distribution of A. discolor.

Resumo Investigamos a frutificação de três subpopulações de Aspidosperma discolor em uma área Mata Atlântica no interior do nordeste do Brasil, para entender melhor como fatores locais e globais (El Niño Southern Oscillation - ENOS) impulsionam a frutificação, e como as características da espécie estão relacionadas aos seus potenciais de dispersão e distribuição espacial. Frutos maduros com sementes em dispersão foram observados entre 1993 e 2012. A dispersão foi avaliada por lançar sementes em duas alturas diferentes. A distribuição foi analisada usando o índice de dispersão padronizado de Morisita. A. discolor apresentou frutificação sazonal durante a estação seca nas três subpopulações com variações de suas datas médias, mas sem variações interanuais nas proporções de indivíduos frutificando. As sementes onduladas evidenciaram distâncias médias de dispersão entre 57,36 e 79,54 m. Encontramos padrão de distribuição aleatório das árvores. O regime sazonal seco/chuvoso influenciou os padrões de frutificação e dispersão, e sementes foram liberadas durante a estação seca (mesmo em anos ENSO). Assim, demonstramos a importância da dispersão anemocórica como fator impulsionador da frutificação, associada a um filtro abiótico (baixa umidade) durante a estação seca. Adicionalmente, a natureza aerodinâmica do diásporo ondulado e seu potencial de dispersão influenciaram a distribuição espacial aleatória de A. discolor.

Resumo O objetivo deste estudo foi investigar os fatores associados à insegurança alimentar em domicílios do Estado de Pernambuco, localizado na região Nordeste do Brasil. Trata-se de um estudo transversal realizado em 1.008 domicílios particulares. Para a investigação, utilizou-se a Escala Brasileira de Insegurança Alimentar (EBIA) e foram analisadas associações com variáveis socioeconômicas, demográficas e práticas relacionadas à alimentação. Calculou-se razão de prevalência e ajuste por meio da regressão de Poisson, sendo estatisticamente significantes aquelas associações cujo p≤0,05. Encontrou-se prevalência de 68,4% de insegurança alimentar. Apresentaram associação com insegurança: escolaridade do chefe da família; renda per capita; participação no programa Bolsa Família; número de moradores; regime de ocupação do domicílio; classe social; práticas; e opiniões acerca da alimentação da família. O maior risco de insegurança foi encontrado naqueles com pior condição econômica, em beneficiários do Bolsa Família e naqueles que indicavam a falta de produtos ultraprocessados para melhorar a alimentação da família. Observou-se insegurança alimentar atrelada às condições de vulnerabilidade social e àqueles que não consideravam ter uma boa alimentação. Grande parte dos sujeitos referiram utilizar os recursos do Bolsa Família para aquisição de alimentos, o que reforça a importância dessa estratégia na promoção do acesso à alimentação.

Abstract This study aimed to investigate factors associated with food insecurity in households in the state of Pernambuco, in the Northeast region of Brazil. This is a cross-sectional study carried out in 1,008 private households. The investigation used the Brazilian Food Insecurity Scale (EBIA) and analyzed associations with socioeconomic and demographic variables, as well as practices related to eating. Prevalence ratio and adjustment were calculated using Poisson regression, and associations where p ≤ 0.05 were statistically significant. Food insecurity prevalence was 68.4%. Variables associated with insecurity were: education of the head of the family; per capita income; participation in the Bolsa Família Program; number of residents; occupation of the household; social class; practices and opinions about family eating habits. The greatest insecurity risk was found in those with the worst economic conditions, in beneficiaries of the Bolsa Família Program and in those who considered the lack of ultra-processed products to improve the family’s diet. Food insecurity was linked to conditions of social vulnerability and to those who did not perceive that they had a good diet. Most of the subjects reported using resources of the Bolsa Família program to purchase food, which reinforces the importance of this strategy in promoting access to food.

Abstract The effect of oligofructose and/or curdlan oligosaccharides (CO) addition on the characteristics of probiotic fermented beverages processed with water-soluble rice extract (WSRE) was evaluated. The products were assessed for the physicochemical characteristics, rheological parameters, and probiotic survival (L. casei) during storage (28 days, 7 °C). Probiotic counts higher than 108 CFU mL-1 and 106 CFU mL-1 were observed during storage and after simulated gastrointestinal conditions (SGIC). Oligofructose addition increased the red color of the products (increase in a* values) and acted as a prebiotic component during storage and SGIC, increasing probiotic survival. CO addition resulted in higher acidity (lower pH and higher titratable acidity values) and lower consistency (lower k and higher n values). It acted as a prebiotic component during fermentation, storage, and SGIC, promoting the highest increase in probiotic survival. Furthermore, CO improved the storage stability, reducing the post-acidification and the alterations in the rheological parameters.

Resumo O objetivo deste artigo é estimar o impacto da criação do Fundo Estadual de Combate à Pobreza (FECOP), em 2003, sobre indicadores de pobreza no Ceará. A aplicação empírica diferencia-se pelo uso do método de Controle Sintético Generalizado, recentemente desenvolvido por Xu (2017). Com dados em nível estadual para o período de 1981 a 2014, os resultados indicam um impacto estatisticamente significativo do FECOP sobre a redução da pobreza e extrema pobreza no Ceará a partir de 2008. Adicionalmente, realizou-se uma análise comparativa dos estados utilizados na simulação do controle sintético com o Ceará, no que diz respeito ao número e valor total de benefícios do Programa Bolsa Família. O intuito é apresentar evidências de que os efeitos encontrados não estão sendo afetados pelos repasses do programa federal.

Abstract The objective of this study is to estimate the impact of the creation of the State Fund to Combat Poverty (FECOP) in 2003 on poverty indicators in Ceará. The empirical application is distinguished by the use of the Generalized Synthetic Control method recently developed by Xu (2017). With state-level data for the period 1981 to 2014, the results indicate a statistically significant impact of FECOP on poverty and extreme poverty reduction in Ceará starting in 2008. Additionally, a comparative analysis of states composing the synthetic control for Ceará was carried out, regarding the number and total value of benefits of the Program Bolsa Família. The purpose is to present evidence that the effects found are not being affected by federal program transfers.

Abstract: En | Text: En | PDF: En

Molecular-typing can help in unraveling epidemiological scenarios and improvement for disease control strategies. A literature review of Mycobacterium tuberculosis transmission in Brazil through genotyping on 56 studies published from 1996-2019 was performed. The clustering rate for mycobacterial interspersed repetitive units - variable tandem repeats (MIRU-VNTR) of 1,613 isolates were: 73%, 33% and 28% based on 12, 15 and 24-loci, respectively; while for RFLP-IS6110 were: 84% among prison population in Rio de Janeiro, 69% among multidrug-resistant isolates in Rio Grande do Sul, and 56.2% in general population in São Paulo. These findings could improve tuberculosis (TB) surveillance and set up a solid basis to build a database of Mycobacterium genomes.

Abstract This study aimed to evaluate decomposition and release of C and of N from the litter of forest Caatinga species in the humification phase, as well as to estimate the residence time of C and N. Litter decomposition of the species was evaluated in 2014/2015 in the municipality of Floresta, Pernambuco, Brazil, using a method of the litter bags at 270; 300; 330; and 360 day. Litter from species of the Fabaceae family presented different decomposition groups, suggesting that decomposition was more influenced by the C/N ratio than N concentration only. The N release was 6.25% greater than the release of C. C will remain in the litter for more time, while N will be almost totally released in approximately 1.14 years. The species litter decomposition were shared, suggesting that the nutrients cycling is fundamental in the preservation of the Caatinga, mainly due to the longer residence time of C.

BACKGROUND The evaluation of procedures for drug susceptibility prediction of Mycobacterium tuberculosis based on genomic data against the conventional reference method test based on culture is realistic considering the scenario of growing number of tools proposals based on whole-genome sequences (WGS). OBJECTIVES This study aimed to evaluate drug susceptibility testing (DST) outcome based on WGS tools and the phenotypic methods performed on isolates of M. tuberculosis Lineage 1 from the state of Pará, Brazil, generally associated with low levels of drug resistance. METHODOLOGY Culture based DST was performed using the Proportion Method in Löwenstein-Jensen medium on 71 isolates that had been submitted to WGS. We analysed the seven main genome sequence-based tools for resistance and lineage prediction applied to M. tuberculosis and for comparison evaluation we have used the Kappa concordance test. FINDINGS When comparing the WGS-based tools against the DST, we observed the highest level of agreement using TB-profiler. Among the tools, TB-profiler, KvarQ and Mykrobe were those which identified the largest number of TB-MDR cases. Comparing the four most sensitive tools regarding resistance prediction, agreement was observed for 43 genomes. MAIN CONCLUSIONS Drug resistance profiling using next-generation sequencing offers rapid assessment of resistance-associated mutations, therefore facilitating rapid access to effective treatment.

ABSTRACT Objectives To evaluate the diagnostic performance and interobserver agreement of PI-RADS v2. Materials and Methods In this Institutional Review Board approved single-center retrospective study, 98 patients with clinically suspected PCa who underwent 3-T multiparametric MRI followed by MRI/TRUS fusion-guided prostate biopsy were included from June 2013 to February 2015. Two radiologists (R1 and R2) with 8 and 1 years of experience in abdominal radiology reviewed the MRI scans and assigned PI-RADS v2 scores in all prostate zones. PI-RADS v2 were compared to MRI/TRUS fusion-guided biopsy results, which were classified as negative, PCa, and significant PCa (sPCa). Results Sensitivity, specificity, NPV, PPV and accuracy for PCa was 85.7% (same for all metrics) for R1 and 81.6%, 79.6%, 81.2%, 80.0% and 80.6% for R2. For detecting sPCa, the corresponding values were 95.3%, 85.4%, 95.9%, 83.7% and 89.8% for R1 and 93.0%, 81.8%, 93.7%, 86.7% and 86.7% for R2. There was substantial interobserver agreement in assigning PI-RADS v2 score as negative (1, 2, 3) or positive (4, 5) (Kappa=0.78). On multivariate analysis, PI-RADS v2 (p <0.001) was the only independent predictor of sPCa compared with age, abnormal DRE, prostate volume, PSA and PSA density. Conclusions Our study population demonstrated that PI-RADS v2 had high diagnostic accuracy, substantial interobserver agreement, and it was the only independent predictor of sPCa.

Abstract This study aimed to evaluate the efficiency of aqueous extraction to obtain bioactive phytochemicals from grains and residual husk of organic Arabic coffee, as well as to develop a beverage with high antioxidant capacity and assess its sensorial acceptability. Aqueous extracts were obtained from dried and crushed coffee beans and husk. Various extraction methods were used to select the one capable of extracting the most amount of total phenolic constituents. The decoction without mechanical agitation was highlighted as the best method, from which the chemical characterization, antioxidant capacity and the presence of antinutrients were investigated. Three beverage formulations were prepared with coffee husk extract and added in different proportions to concentrated pineapple juice. The beverages were analyzed for antioxidant capacity, microbiological properties and sensorial acceptance. No hemagglutinins and low oxalate content were found in the samples. The antioxidant capacity of the aqueous husk extract was higher than that of the grains. The beverage made with the addition of concentrated pineapple juice was sensorially preferred by the tasters. In addition, it contributed to raise the antioxidant capacity of the beverage. It was concluded that the aqueous extract of coffee husk appears as a new alternative for the beverage industry.

RESUMO Este artigo discute uma investigação sobre as representações sociais (MOSCOVICI, 1978, 2003, 2007) de professores pré-serviço de inglês e espanhol sobre feedback corretivo oral. Participaram do estudo 64 estudantes concluintes de cursos de Letras das cinco diferentes regiões brasileiras. Uma vez que as representações sociais podem guiar os comportamentos, investigar as representações sociais dos participantes pode revelar como eles tendem a lidar com erros orais em suas futuras salas de aula. Os dados foram coletados por meio de um instrumento de associação livre de palavras e um grupo focal online. A análise revelou que os participantes ancoram feedback corretivo oral a um entendimento tradicional de correção do erro e aponta para a necessidade de incluir feedback corretivo oral no currículo de cursos de Letras.

ABSTRACT This article discusses an investigation about the social representations (MOSCOVICI, 1978, 2003, 2007) of pre-service teachers of English and Spanish on oral corrective feedback. The study population were 64 senior students of Letters programs from the five different Brazilian regions. Considering that social representations may guide behavior, researching the participants’ social representations may reveal how they tend to deal with oral errors in their future teaching. Data were collected using a free word association instrument and an online focus group. The analysis showed that the participants’ social representations are anchored on traditional understanding of error correction, and points to the need of including oral corrective feedback in the curriculum of Letters programs.

ABSTRACT Objective: The aim was to evaluate the quality of life (HRQoL) in women with subclinical hypothyroidism (sHT) after 16 weeks of endurance training. Subjects and methods: In the first phase, a cross-sectional study was conducted in which 22 women with sHT (median age: 41.5 (interquartile range: 175) years, body mass index: 26.2 (8.7) kg/m2, thyroid stimulating hormone > 4.94 mIU/L and free thyroxine between 0.8 and 1.3 ng/dL were compared to a group of 33 euthyroid women concerned to HRQoL. In the second phase, a randomized clinical trial was conducted where only women with sHT were randomly divided into two groups: sHT-Tr (n = 10) - participants that performed an exercise program - and sHT-Sed (n = 10) - controls. Exercise training consisted of 60 minutes of aerobic activities (bike and treadmill), three times a week, for 16 weeks. The HRQoL was assessed by the SF-36 questionnaire in the early and at the end of four months. Results: Women with sHT had lower scores on functional capacity domain in relation to the euthyroid ones (770 ± 23.0 vs. 88.8 ± 14.6; p = 0.020). The sHT-Tr group improved functional capacity, general health, emotional aspects, mental and physical component of HRQoL after training period, while the sHT-Sed group showed no significant changes. Conclusion: After 16 weeks of aerobic exercise training, there were remarkable improvements in HRQoL in women with sHT.
