Abstract: En Pt | Text: En Pt | PDF: En | PDF: Pt

ABSTRACT The Mediterranean fruit fly, Ceratitis capitata (Diptera: Tephritidae), is one of the most harmful species to world horticulture, thus requiring suppression or eradication programs. The sterile insect technique is widely used for autocidal control of nuisance insects because it neither releases exotic agents into the environment nor introduces new genetic material into existing populations. In 2005, the Moscamed Brasil biofactory imported the tsl Vienna 8 C. capitata strain from the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA); this action required genetic testing of the strain’s biological characteristics. The objective of this study was to discriminate males of wild populations from tsl Vienna 8 using molecular markers, and to conclude which male line dominated in a remating condition. Four crosses, each using 100 males and 100 females, were performed: wild female × wild male; wild female × tsl Vienna 8 male; wild female × wild male, followed by remating with tsl Vienna 8 males after 48 h, and wild female × tsl Vienna 8 male, followed by remating with wild males after 48 h. The results showed that the tsl Vienna 8 strain is compatible with wild females from the São Francisco Valley region and that these males can successfully transfer their sperm to the female spermathecae. Regarding remating, the sperm of the second male dominated over that of the first one. Based on these findings, the sterile insect technique success may be reduced, since the progeny of a female that remates with a wild male could be viable.

RESUMO A mosca-das-frutas do Mediterrâneo, Ceratitis capitata (Diptera: Tephritidae), é uma das espécies mais prejudiciais à horticultura mundial, portanto requer programas de supressão ou erradicação. A técnica do inseto estéril é amplamente utilizada para o controle autocida de insetos nocivos, pois não libera agentes exóticos no meio ambiente nem introduz novos materiais genéticos nas populações existentes. Em 2005, a biofábrica Moscamed Brasil importou a cepa Vienna 8 C. capitata da Agência Internacional de Energia Atômica (IAEA); essa ação exigiu testes genéticos das características biológicas da linhagem. O objetivo deste estudo foi discriminar machos de populações silvestres de tsl Viena 8 usando marcadores moleculares, e inferir sobre qual linhagem masculina era dominante em condição de recópula. Quatro cruzamentos, cada um com 100 machos e 100 fêmeas, foram realizados: fêmea selvagem × macho selvagem; fêmea selvagem × macho tsl Viena 8; fêmea selvagem × macho selvagem, seguido por recópula com machos tsl Vienna 8 após 48 h, e fêmea selvagem × machos tsl Vienna 8, seguido por recópula com machos selvagens após 48 h. Os resultados mostraram que a cepa tsl Vienna 8 é compatível com fêmeas selvagens da região do Vale do São Francisco e que esses machos podem transferir com sucesso seus espermatozóides para a espermateca das fêmeas. Quanto à recópula, o esperma do segundo macho precedeu o primeiro. Com base nesses achados, o sucesso da técnica de insetos estéril pode ser reduzido, já que a progênie de uma fêmea que recopulou com um macho selvagem pode ser viável.

Abstract: En | Text: En | PDF: En

The aim of this study was to produce and to characterize dietary fiber concentrates (DFCs) obtained from the peach palm by-product (PPB). Subcritical water extraction (SWE) and aqueous extractions at low pressure in magnetic (LPMS) and orbital (LPOS) stirring were carried out to DFCs production. DFCs and the untreated PPB were analyzed for composition, functional properties, scanning electron microscopy and infrared spectroscopy. The aqueous extraction treatments increased the total dietary fiber content, due to the removal of sugars (88.7-99.6%) and the partial leaching of proteins and ashes. The DFC obtained by SWE had the highest content of soluble and insoluble dietary fiber. The methods of aqueous extraction changed the structure of fiber components, that becomes more porous and fragmented, improving the functional properties, as water and oil absorption. Cellulose was the most abundant component of the samples and the alteration in its conformation was observed in the infrared spectra. The principal component analysis showed that the changes on the composition and functional properties were associated with the treatments applied. DFCs produced in this work, specially by SWE, are considered interesting alternatives to promote the utilization of peach palm by-product as a fiber-rich component.

Abstract Objective Research and identification of Cutibacterium acnes (C. acnes) and other microorganisms in deeptissue samples collected in clean shoulder surgeries of patients who did not undergo any previous invasive joint procedure and who had no clinical history of infection. Methods We analyzed the results of cultures of intraoperative deep tissue samples from 84 patients submitted to primary clean shoulder surgery. Tubes containing culture medium were used for storage and transport of anaerobic agents, prolonged incubation time, and mass spectrometer for diagnosis of bacterial agents. Results Bacteria growth was evidenced in 34 patients (40.4%) of the 84 included in the study. Of these, 23 had growth of C. acnes in at least one sample of deep tissue collected, corresponding to 27.3% of the total patients. The second most common agent was Staphylococcus epidermidis, present in 7.2% of the total individuals included. We showed a higher relationship between sample positivity and males, a lower mean age, absence of diabetes mellitus, ASA I score, and antibiotic prophylaxis in anesthetic induction with cefuroxime. Conclusions A high percentage of isolates of different bacteria was found in shoulder tissue samples of patients undergoing clean and primary surgeries, who had no history of previous infection. Identification of C. acnes was high (27.6%), and Staphylococcus epidermidis was the second most frequent agent (7.2%).

O estudo teve como objetivo avaliar o impacto do Programa Academia da Saúde (PAS) nas internações hospitalares por acidente vascular cerebral (AVC) no Estado de Pernambuco, Brasil. Esta avaliação de impacto das políticas utilizou uma abordagem quase-experimental que consiste em um estimador de diferença-em-diferenças, ponderado pelo pareamento por escore de propensão para lidar com possíveis fatores de confusão. O estudo foi composto por dados socioeconômicos, demográficos e epidemiológicos de bases de dados oficiais brasileiras entre os anos de 2010 e 2019. O grupo de tratamento foi composto pelos 134 municípios que implantaram o PAS a partir de 2011, e os 51 municípios que não implantaram foram alocados no grupo de comparação. O algoritmo do vizinho mais próximo (N5) foi utilizado para emparelhar os municípios tratados e comparar aos municípios do grupo controle, criando os pesos que foram utilizados para avaliar o efeito médio do tratamento sobre o tratado (ATT) no estimador de diferença-em-diferenças. Houve 2.771 internações por AVC em 2010 (0,51% de todas as internações) e 11.542 (2%) em 2019. Os municípios que implementaram o PAS tiveram 18,37% menos internações em comparação com seus homólogos no grupo de comparação. O impacto do programa na redução das taxas de internação foi maior entre os homens (ATT: -0,1932) e naqueles com idade entre 71 e 80 anos (ATT: -0,1911). Todos os resultados foram estatisticamente significativos em um nível de 5%. O PAS reduziu a hospitalização por AVC em vários grupos populacionais, mas principalmente naqueles em que a prevalência subjacente de AVC é mais alta, reforçando a importância dos investimentos públicos em políticas de promoção da saúde destinadas a estimular mudanças nos estilos de vida.

El objetivo de este trabajo es evaluar el impacto del Programa Academia de la Salud (PAS) en los ingresos hospitalarios por accidente cerebrovascular (ACV) en el estado de Pernambuco, Brasil. Esta evaluación del impacto de la política utilizó un enfoque cuasi-experimental que consiste en un estimador de diferencias en diferencias, ponderado por el emparejamiento de puntuación de propensión para hacer frente a posibles factores de confusión. El estudio incluyó datos socioeconómicos, demográficos y epidemiológicos de bases de datos oficiales brasileñas de 2010 a 2019. El grupo de tratamiento se compuso de los 134 municipios que implementaron el PAS a partir de 2011 y los 51 municipios que no lo hicieron se asignaron al grupo de comparación. Se utilizó el algoritmo del vecino más próximo (N5) para emparejar los municipios tratados y los del grupo de comparación y crear las ponderaciones que se emplearon para evaluar el efecto medio del tratamiento sobre los tratados (ATT) en el estimador de diferencias en diferencias. Hubo 2.771 hospitalizaciones por ACV en 2010 (0,51% de todas las hospitalizaciones) y 11.542 (2%) en 2019. Los municipios que aplicaron el PAS tuvieron un 18,37% menos de hospitalizaciones en comparación con sus homólogos del grupo de comparación. El impacto del programa en la reducción de las tasas de hospitalización fue gradualmente mayor entre los hombres (ATT: -0,1932) y entre las personas de 71 a 80 años (ATT: -0,1911). Todos los resultados fueron estadísticamente significativos al nivel del 5%. El PAS redujo la hospitalización por ACV en varios grupos de población, pero principalmente en aquellos en los que la prevalencia subyacente de ACV es mayor, lo que refuerza la importancia de las inversiones públicas en políticas de promoción de la salud diseñadas para impulsar cambios en los estilos de vida.

This study aimed to evaluate the impact of the Health Gym Program (HGP) on hospital admissions for stroke in the state of Pernambuco, Brazil. This policy impact evaluation used a quasi-experimental approach consisting of a difference-in-differences estimator, weighted by propensity score matching to deal with potential confounding variables. The study comprised socioeconomic, demographic, and epidemiological data from official Brazilian databases from 2010 to 2019. The treatment group was composed of the 134 municipalities that implemented the HGP since 2011. The 51 municipalities that did not were allocated to the comparison group. The nearest neighbor algorithm (N5) was used to pair treatment and comparison group municipalities and create the weights to evaluate the average treatment effect on the treated (ATT) in the difference-in-differences estimator. In 2010, 2,771 people were hospitalized for stroke (0.51% of all hospitalizations) and in 2019, 11,542 (2%). Municipalities that implemented the HGP had 18.37% fewer hospitalizations than their counterparts in the comparison group. The program’s impact in reducing hospitalization rates was incrementally greater among men (ATT: -0.1932) and those aged 71 to 80 years (ATT: -0.1911). All results were statistically significant at the 5% level. The HGP reduced hospitalization for stroke in several population groups, but primarily in those whose underlying prevalence of stroke is highest, reinforcing the importance of public investments in health promotion policies designed to encourage lifestyle changes.

Abstract Lemongrass (Cymbopogon citratus) is an aromatic plant of great significance in industries due to its essential oil characteristic aroma. Essential oils are concentrated plant extracts that evaporate when in contact with air and have low chemical stability, which can improve encapsulation techniques. This study aimed to evaluate the seasonal influence in the concentration of the predominant component citral of the essential oil of C. citratus and develop microparticles by spray drying containing this vegetal matrix. The lemongrass leaves were collected in the four seasons, and the essential oil was extracted by hydrodistillation. The chemical composition was determined by gas chromatography coupled with the mass spectrometry technique (GC-MS). Different proportions of arabic and guar gums were evaluated as encapsulating agents. Physicochemical analyses characterized the microparticle powder. GC-MS showed higher citral in the spring and summer (84.89% and 79.39%, respectively), and it was possible to identify a high amount of citral in the microparticles. Field-emission scanning electron microscopy showed agglomerate and collapsed microparticles. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy suggested the essential oil encapsulation due to a band at 1675 cm-1 used as a reference, related to the acyclic monoterpenes of citral. X-ray diffraction showed the amorphous structure of the microparticles. Thermogravimetric curves of microparticles showed higher Tonset in microparticles than those observed for pure lemongrass essential oil, inferring that microencapsulation improved the thermal stability. This result confirms the lemongrass essential oil microencapsulation and its potential application in food products, drugs, or cosmetics.

Abstract Objective: To assess factors associated with emotional changes and Hyperactivity/Inattention (HI) motivated by COVID-19 quarantine in adolescents with immunocompromising diseases. Methods: A cross-sectional study included 343 adolescents with immunocompromising diseases and 108 healthy adolescents. Online questionnaires were answered including socio-demographic data and self-rated healthcare routine during COVID-19 quarantine and validated surveys: Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire (SDQ), Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory 4.0 (PedsQL4.0). Results: The frequencies of abnormal emotional SDQ scores from adolescents with chronic diseases were similar to those of healthy subjects (110/343 [32%] vs. 38/108 [35%], p = 0.548), as well as abnormal hyperactivity/inattention SDQ scores (79/343 [23%] vs. 29/108 [27%], p = 0.417). Logistic regression analysis of independent variables associated with abnormal emotional scores from adolescents with chronic diseases showed: female sex (Odds Ratio [OR = 3.76]; 95% Confidence Interval (95% CI) 2.00–7.05; p < 0.001), poor sleep quality (OR = 2.05; 95% CI 1.08–3.88; p = 0.028) and intrafamilial violence during pandemic (OR = 2.17; 95% CI 1.12–4.19; p = 0.021) as independently associated with abnormal emotional scores, whereas total PedsQL score was inversely associated with abnormal emotional scores (OR = 0.95; 95% CI 0.93–0.96; p < 0.0001). Logistic regression analysis associated with abnormal HI scores from patients evidenced that total PedsQL score (OR = 0.97; 95% CI 0.95–0.99; p = 0.010], changes in medical appointments during the pandemic (OR = 0.39; 95% CI 0.19–0.79; p = 0.021), and reliable COVID-19 information (OR = 0.35; 95% CI 0.16–0.77; p = 0.026) remained inversely associated with abnormal HI scores. Conclusion: The present study showed emotional and HI disturbances in adolescents with chronic immunosuppressive diseases during the COVID-19 pandemic. It reinforces the need to promptly implement a longitudinal program to protect the mental health of adolescents with and without chronic illnesses during future pandemics.

Abstract Reservoir-building on rivers is still “the Brazilian energy culture”, such that many other dams are being constructed and planned, with many other rivers potentially suffering the same impact in their sediment flux. In this study, we evaluated the impacts of reservoir-building on the erosion of the São Francisco, Jequitinhonha, Doce, and Paraíba do Sul river deltas. A time series of Landsat images from 1973 to 2020 was analyzed, with three key highlighted moments (1973, 1997 and 2020) that summarize the erosion processes on these deltas. In addition to the images, continuous river water discharge, sediment discharge and basin rainfall data were analyzed between 1940 and 2020, providing river parameters over a period exceeding that of the satellite data. The findings suggest that coastal erosion has progressed in the four deltas, with higher estimated losses in the São Francisco and Paraíba do Sul over the 47 years of available satellite images. However, despite minimal overall estimated gains, the Jequitinhonha and Doce experienced high erosion at their river mouths, as in the other two rivers, compensated by accretion in distal coastal areas. These results can be explained by reductions in river flux and consequent sediment transport capacity due to reservoirs.

ABSTRACT: The parasitic fauna of Podocnemididae species is of great relevance to understanding the ecological relationships of the organisms in this genus. The parasites can have a symbiotic relationship with their hosts; however, environmental imbalances may change this relationship. Therefore, these parasites may become agents that generate zoonoses, especially in animals used by parasites as a food source. The aim of this study was to investigate the gastrointestinal parasitic fauna of specimens of Podocnemis unifilis. The animals were collected from the Tocantins and Javaés Rivers, both of which flow in the State of Tocantins, predominantly in the Cerrado territory. Samples of stomach and intestinal contents were fixed in 10% formalin buffered with sodium phosphate, transferred to 70% alcohol for analysis, and separated after 72 hours. Parasites were isolated and identified according to morphology and identification key. Four species of parasites were observed in 100% of specimens of P. unifilis, namely Nematophila grandis (Trematoda) and Paratractis hystrix, Paraorientatractis semiannulata, and Orientatractis leiperi (Nematoda). N. grandis was the only parasite that was not observed in the intestine; it appeared to adhere to the inner wall of the stomach. All nematodes were observed both in the stomach and intestine. These data expand the knowledge related to the P. unifilis parasitic fauna and the geographic distribution of these parasites in P. unifilis from the Tocantins and Javaés Rivers.

RESUMO: A fauna parasitológica das espécies de Podocnemididae é de grande relevância para o conhecimento das relações ecológicas desse grupo de vertebrados. Os parasitos podem ocorrer em simbiose com os seus hospedeiros sem causar danos, mas o desequilíbrio ambiental pode causar um desequilíbrio nessa relação e, assim, serem agentes geradores de zoonoses, especialmente em animais que são utilizados como recurso alimentar. Esta pesquisa fez o levantamento da fauna parasitária gastrointestinal de espécimes de Podocnemis unifilis. Os animais foram coletados no rio Tocantins e Javaés, ambos no Estado do Tocantins, em território predominante de Cerrado. As amostras de conteúdo estomacal e intestinal foram fixadas em formol a 10% tamponado em fosfato de sódio, transferidas para álcool 70% para análise e separação após 72 horas. Os parasitos foram separados e identificados de acordo com morfologia e chave de identificação. Foram encontradas quatro espécies de parasitos com prevalência em 100% dos espécimes de P. unifilis, sendo elas Nematophila grandis (Trematoda) e Paratractis hystrix, Paraorientatractis semiannulata e Orientatractis leiperi (Nematoda). Somente N. grandis não foi observado no intestino, sendo encontrado somente aderido à parede interna do estômago. Todos os nematoides foram observados no estômago e intestino. Esses dados ampliam o conhecimento sobre a fauna parasitária de P. unifilis, e aumentam o conhecimento sobre a distribuição geográfica desses parasitos em P. unifilis dos Rios Tocantins e Javaés.

RESUMO A degradação ambiental impacta negativamente a diversidade e a quantidade dos invertebrados do solo, notadamente em regiões semiáridas. Geralmente, uma alta diversidade de invertebrados indica a biofuncionalidade e a sustentabilidade do uso do solo. Nós avaliamos o efeito de 14 anos de isolamento e da presença das árvores nativas Mimosa tenuiflora e Cnidoscolus quercifolius na mesofauna do solo de uma área degradada de Caatinga, de acordo com o teste do χ 2 aplicado aos dados de abundância desses microorganismos. O isolamento da área sozinho mais que triplicou a mesofauna do solo. A abundância da mesofauna sob a copa da M. tenuiflora aumentou 3,17 e 3,41 vezes na área com e sem pastejo, respectivamente, e sob a copa da C. quercifolius aumentou em 22.6 vezes na área sem pastejo. O efeito da M. tenuiflora na área pastejada foi similar ao de 14 anos de isolamento. A quantidade da mesofauna sob a copa de C. quercifolius após 14 anos de isolamento foi 6,6 vezes maior do que a observada sob a de M. tenuiflora em condições similares. O isolamento da área e árvores, especialmente C. quercifolius, aumentaram a quantidade da mesofauna do solo, porém, a recuperação total desses organismos em áreas degradadas de Caatinga pode necessitar de mais de 14 anos. Considerando o cenário atual de degradação ambiental crescente, nossos dados sobre as relações entre a mesofauna do solo, o isolamento de áreas e árvores nativas são importantes para delinear estratégias e procedimentos para a recuperação de áreas degradadas no bioma Caatinga.

ABSTRACT Environmental degradation impacts negatively the diversity and quantity of invertebrates living in the soil, mainly in semiarid regions. Generally, a high diversity of invertebrates indicates good biofunctionality and sustainable use of the soil. We evaluated the effects of 14 years of grazing deferment and the presence of the native trees Mimosa tenuiflora and Cnidoscolus quercifolius on the soil mesofauna of a degraded Caatinga area, according to the χ 2 test, applied to assess the abundance of these microorganisms. The grazing deferment alone more than tripled the soil mesofauna. The abundance of the mesofauna under M. tenuiflora canopies increased by a factor of 3.17 and 3.41 in grazed and ungrazed areas, respectively, and under C. quercifolius canopies increased by a factor of 22.6 in the ungrazed area. The effect of M. tenuiflora in the grazed area was similar to 14 years of grazing deferment. The quantity of mesofauna under C. quercifolius canopies after 14 years of grazing deferment was 6.6-fold higher than that under M. tenuiflora canopies, under similar conditions. The grazing deferment and trees, especially C. quercifolius, increased the soil mesofauna; however, full recovery of such organisms in degraded Caatinga areas may need more than 14 years. Considering the current scenario of increasing environmental degradation, our findings regarding the relationships between soil mesofauna, grazing deferment and native trees are important to devise strategies and procedures for the recovery of degraded areas in the Caatinga biome.

Abstract INTRODUCTION COVID-19 sequelae, or the short-, medium-, and long-term manifestations of the disease are under continuous study. There are currently few reports on the evolution of hematological variables following a demonstrated absence of SARS-CoV-2 after infection. OBJECTIVE Identify hematological alterations in Cuban adults recovered from SARS-CoV-2 infection, and their relation with disease severity. METHODS We selected 348 persons recovered from COVID-19 residing in Havana, Cuba with an RT-PCR study negative for SARS-CoV-2 performed two weeks after hospital discharge; a structured survey was administered to obtain clinical–epidemiological data. Three groups were established according to COVID-19 clinical criteria: asymptomatic, mild/moderately symptomatic, and severely symptomatic, which, in turn, were divided according to hospital discharge date and blood sample collection date. We performed hemograms with differential leukocyte counts and compared results among groups. We then measured the associations between hematological variables, personal medical history, and relevant lifestyle habits (smoking). RESULTS All hematological variables were within normal reference limits, although men from the group of severely ill patients had increased total leukocytes, neutrophils and lymphocytes, and decreased hemoglobin and eosinophils, which was also evident in those with a recovery time of 31–90 days. CONCLUSIONS The relation between hematological variables and degree of clinical severity offers evidence as to persistence of systemic alterations (possibly inflammatory) associated with viral infection. Their identification and characterization can facilitate personalized patient followup and rehabilitation.

Abstract: En | Text: En | PDF: En

Acetylated compounds prepared from naphthoquinones have been reported as antitumoral prodrugs. Exploring the synthetic versatility of the naphthoquinone and triazolic nuclei, herein we report a simple and efficient synthetic route to prepare a series of sixteen prodrugs prototype of 1,2,3-triazoles-naphthoquinodoic acetyl derivatives. The compounds 10a-10h and 11a-11h were obtained by oxidative cycloaddition reaction between lawsone and 4-vinyl-1H-1,2,3-triazoles promoted by ceric ammonium nitrate (CAN) in alkaline medium followed by reductive acetylation of the quinones in excess of metallic zinc and acetic anhydride in yields up to > 98%. All derivatives revealed to be hemocompatible and the compound 11e exhibited the most promising profile against Caco-2 cells showing the higher selectivity index. Molecular docking suggests that these compounds could exert their cytotoxic activity through inhibition of one topoisomerase II isoform, at least.

Abstract Background: Cryptoccocal meningitis continues to present high incidence among AIDS patients. The treatment of choice is the synergistic combination of flucytosine (5-FC) with amphotericin B deoxycholate (AmBd) or its lipid formulations. However, 5-FC is unavailable in many countries and AmB demands hospitalization. The combination of AmB with the fungistatic fluconazole (FLC) or the use of high FLC daily doses alone became the choice. Nonetheless, sterilization of cerebrospinal fluid is delayed with FLC monotherapy, mainly with high fungal burden. These findings suggest the search for new antifungal compounds, such as liriodenine. Methods: Liriodenine antifungal activity was evaluated by three procedures: determining the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) on 30 strains of the Cryptococcus neoformans (C. neoformans) complex and 30 of the Cryptococcus gattii (C. gattii) complex, using EUCAST methodology and amphotericin B deoxycholate as control; performing the time-kill methodology in two strains of the C. neoformans complex and one of the C. gattii complex; and injury to cryptococcal cells, evaluated by transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Liriodenine absorption and safety at 0.75 and 1.50 mg.kg-1 doses were evaluated in BALB/c mice. Results: Liriodenine MICs ranged from 3.9 to 62.5 μg.mL-1 for both species complexes, with no differences between them. Time-kill methodology confirmed its concentration-dependent fungicidal effect, killing all the strains below the limit of detection (33 CFU.mL-1) at the highest liriodenine concentration (32-fold MIC), with predominant activity during the first 48 hours. Liriodenine induced severe Cryptococcus alterations - cytoplasm with intense rarefaction and/or degradation, injury of organelles, and presence of vacuoles. Liriodenine was better absorbed at lower doses, with no histopathological alterations on the digestive tract. Conclusion: The fungicidal activity confirmed by time-kill methodology, the intense Cryptococcus injury observed by TEM, the absorption after gavage administration, and the safety at the tested doses indicate that the liriodenine molecule is a promising drug lead for development of anticryptococcal agents.
