Abstract The health and economic impact of allergic diseases are increasing rapidly, and changes in management strategies are required. Its influence reduces the capacity of work and school performance by at least a third. The ICPs of the airways (integrated care pathways for respiratory diseases) are structured multidisciplinary healthcare plans, promoting the recommendations of the guidelines in local protocols and their application to clinical practice. This document presents an executive summary for Argentina, Mexico, and Spain. Next-generation ARIA guidelines are being developed for the pharmacological treatment of allergic rhinitis (AR), using the GRADE-based guidelines for AR, tested with real-life evidence provided by mobile technology with visual analogue scales. It is concluded that in the AR treatment, H1-antihistamines are less effective than intranasal corticosteroids (INCS), in severe AR the INCS represent the first line of treatment, and intranasal combination INCS + anti-H1 is more effective than monotherapy. However, according to the MASK real-life observational study, patients have poor adherence to treatment and often self-medicate, according to their needs.

RESUMO Piper gaudichaudianum Kunth (Piperaceae) é uma planta com ampla distribuição no território brasileiro. Além de sua importância ecológica, é utilizada na medicina popular e muitas de suas atividades biológicas já foram comprovadas. O objetivo deste trabalho foi verificar o efeito da sazonalidade sobre o teor de óleo essencial (OE) em folhas de Piper gaudichaudianum e averiguar a possível influência do processo de secagem do material vegetal no rendimento deste extrativo. Foram coletadas aleatoriamente folhas de indivíduos de uma população nativa de Santa Maria - RS, Brasil, ao longo de um ano. O OE foi extraído de folhas frescas e secas à temperatura ambiente pelo método de hidrodestilação. Quando verificada a presença de órgãos reprodutivos, os mesmos foram extraídos, a fim de examinar a sua influência no rendimento do OE de folhas. Para determinação do teor de umidade (TU%), 20 g de folhas e 10 g de órgãos reprodutivos foram secos separadamente em estufa a 50°C até peso constante. O rendimento de OE de folhas (% m/m) foi calculado para o material fresco com base na massa seca, considerando o TU%, bem como para o material seco à temperatura ambiente. Apenas pequenas variações sazonais nos teores de OE foram detectadas para as amostras analisadas, não havendo diferença estatística entre eles. O maior rendimento foi observado na primavera, tanto para o OE de folhas (1,61±0,09%), quanto de órgãos reprodutivos (5,17%), enquanto o menor teor de OE em folhas ocorreu no verão (1,32±0,14%), a única estação em que não houve a presença de órgãos reprodutivos. A ausência de diferença significativa entre os rendimentos indica que não houve variabilidade sazonal quantitativa na produção de OE em folhas desta população. Portanto, a coleta deste órgão vegetal pode ser realizada em qualquer época do ano visando à obtenção deste extrativo. Uma vez que não foi verificada diminuição do teor de OE durante o processo de secagem à temperatura ambiente, esse processamento pós-colheita poderá ser adotado.

ABSTRACT Piper gaudichaudianum Kunth (Piperaceae) is widely distributed throughout Brazil. In addition to its ecological importance, it is used in folk medicine and a great number of its biological activities have been already proved. Thus, the aim of this research was to investigate the effect of seasonality on the content of essential oil (EO) in leaves of Piper gaudichaudianum and ascertain the possible influence of the drying process of the plant material in the yield of this extractive. Leaves were randomly collected from individuals of a native population in Santa Maria, RS state, Brazil, along a year. The EO was extracted from fresh and dried leaves by hydrodistillation. When reproductive organs were observed, they were extracted in order to examine their influence on the yield of leaf EO. To determine the moisture content (MC%), 20 g of leaves and 10g of reproductive organs were dried separately in an oven at 50°C until constant weight. The yield of leaf EO (% w/ w) was calculated for the fresh material based on the dry weight considering the MC%, and for the dried material at room temperature. Only small seasonal variations in EO content was detected for the analyzed samples, with no statistical difference between them. The highest yield was observed in the spring for EO from the leaves (1.61 ± 0.09%), and from the reproductive organs (5.17%), while the lowest yields of leaf EO occurred in the summer (1.32 ± 0.14%), the only season which showed no presence of the reproductive organs. The absence of significant difference between the yields indicates no quantitative seasonal variability in production of EO in leaves of this population. However, yields did not differ statistically, indicating no seasonal variability of the EO content of the leaves of this population. Therefore, the collection of this plant organ can be performed at any time of the year in order to obtain this extractive. Since there was no decrease in the content of EO during the drying process at room temperature, this post-harvest processing can be adopted.

RESUMO: O estudo objetivou verificar a ação do óleo essencial de Lippia alba (EOLA) na resposta de estresse para o transporte de tilápia-do-Nilo Oreochromis niloticus . Os peixes foram transportados por 8h sob três tratamentos (triplicata): controle, 10 e 20µL L-1 EOLA. Níveis plasmáticos de glicose foram significativamente menores em peixes expostos a 20µL L-1 de EOLA, em relação com o grupo controle e os peixes expostos a 10µL L-1 de EOLA, mas, cortisol, lactato e paraoxonase plasmáticos foram similares. Amônia não-ionizada e taxa de ventilação demonstraram redução significativa nos tratamentos com EOLA. Conclui-se que o uso de 20µL L-1 de EOLA é indicado para o transporte de tilápia-do-Nilo.

ABSTRACT: This study aimed to examine the action of the essential oil of Lippia alba (EOLA) in the stress response for transport of Nile tilapia Oreochromis niloticus . The fish were transported into three treatments (in triplicate): control, 10 and 20 µL L-1 EOLA, with loading density of 15 fish/plastic bags for 8h. Plasma glucose levels were significantly decreased in fish exposed to 20µL L-1 EOLA in comparison with the control group and fish exposed to 10µL L-1 EOLA, but the plasma cortisol, lactate and paraoxonase levels were similar. Un-ionized ammonia and ventilatory rate demonstrated a significant reduction in the treatments with the use of EOLA. In conclusion the use of 20µL L-1 EOLA is indicated for Nile tilapia transport.

Este estudo teve por objetivos avaliar o efeito da sazonalidade sobre o teor de óleo essencial (OE) presente nas folhas de Nectandra grandiflora Nees e determinar se a secagem do material vegetal à temperatura ambiente influencia o rendimento do OE. Para tanto, foi coletado material vegetal de 12 indivíduos ao longo de um ano, e o OE foi extraído separadamente de folhas frescas e folhas secas, pelo método de hidrodestilação. Paralelamente, 20 g de folhas frescas foram levados à estufa a 40 °C até peso constante, para determinação do teor de umidade, procedimento esse realizado para cada coleta, individualmente. O rendimento de OE das folhas (% m/m) foi calculado para o material vegetal fresco com base em massa de matéria seca, determinado considerando o teor de umidade, bem como para o material seco à temperatura ambiente. Os dados de rendimento foram analisados através do teste de Tukey (P<0,05). Os resultados mostraram que o teor de OE das folhas da espécie apresentou variabilidade sazonal, com a maior produção detectada na primavera (0,75 ± 0,06%). Esse valor foi estatisticamente diferente dos rendimentos encontrados nas outras estações do ano, sendo o menor rendimento obtido no inverno (0,39 ± 0,02%). Desse modo, indica-se que a coleta de folhas de N. grandiflora seja realizada durante a primavera, visando obter maior teor de OE. Adicionalmente, verificou-se que não há perda de teor OE durante o processo de secagem à temperatura ambiente e, dessa forma, esse procedimento pós-colheita poderá vir a ser adotado sem comprometer o rendimento do extrativo.

ABSTRACT This study aimed to evaluate the effect of seasonal variability on the yield of essential oil (EO) present in leaves of Nectandra grandiflora Nees and as well as to determine whether the drying process at room temperature of the plant material influences the yield of this EO. Plant material was collected from 12 individuals over ayear and EO was extracted by hydrodestillation separately from fresh and dried leaves. Simultaneously, 20 g of fresh leaves was taken to stove at 40 °C to constant weight for determination of moisture content. This procedure was performed for each collection individually. The yield of EO in leaves (% w/w) was calculated for fresh plant material based on dry matter, determined by considering the moisture content, as well as for the material dried at room temperature. The yields were analyzed by Tukey test (P<0.05). Results showed that the content of EO in the leaves showed seasonal variability with the highest production detected in spring (0.75 ± 0.06%) and the lowestyield in winter (0.39 ± 0.02%). Thereby, it is recommended that the leaves of N. grandiflora be collected in spring, aiming to increase EO yield. Additionally, no loss of EO content during the drying process at room temperature occurred thus this postharvest procedure could be adopted without compromising the extractive yield.

Abstract: En | Text: En | PDF: En

This study evaluated the seasonal influence on the yield and chemical composition of the essential oil (EO) of Nectandra megapotamica. Fresh young (YL) and old leaves (OL) obtained from three trees in each season (Nov/2010 to Sep/2011) collected in Santa Maria-RS were hydrodistilled in triplicate. The chemical composition was determined by the gas chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry (GC-MS) and the yield on dry basis was evaluated by two-way ANOVA (seasons, development stage). Spring (Sp) and summer (Su) showed higher average incomes (0.45 and 0.33%), which occurred when flowering, fruiting, and growth of YL and senescence of OL took place, while autumn (Au) presented the lowest yield (0.25%) during the rustification of OL. The highest yield was obtained for the YL in Sp (0.59%) and the lowest for the OL in Au (0.21%). The major constituents of the EO were independent from the season and were identified as α-pinene, bicyclogermacrene, β-pinene, germacrene D, and limonene. Seasonality and phenology influenced the production of EO probably due to morphological and metabolic alterations in the leaves as well as due to the needs of the tree, such as attraction and/or protection.

Existe uma crescente demanda por anestésicos baratos e seguros capazes de reduzir o estresse em peixes produzido durante procedimentos como captura e manuseio. Neste contexto, o presente estudo avaliou o potencial como anestésico dos óleos essenciais (EO) de três espécies vegetais nativas (Hesperozygis ringens, Lippia sidoides e Ocotea acutifolia) em jundiás - Rhamdia quelen. Adicionalmente, a composição química desses óleos e suas influências sobre o estresse também foram avaliadas. Os EO de H. ringens e O. acutifolia foram efetivos como anestésicos sem efeitos adversos detectáveis. EO de O. acutifolia (150 µL L-1) promoveu um aumento na glicemia. Em relação a sua composição, pulegona correspondeu a 96,63% do EO de H. ringens, e óxido de cariofileno a 56,90% do EO de O. acutifolia. Dois quimiotipos, timol e carvacrol (68,40% e 67,89%, respectivamente) foram verificados para os EO de L. sidoides. Ambas as amostras de EO de L. sidoides apresentaram atividade anestésica em jundiás, contudo a exposição produziu perda de muco e mortalidade. Desta forma, somente os EO de H. ringens e O. acutifolia têm seu uso recomendável como anestésicos

There is an increasing demand for inexpensive and safe anesthetics that can reduce fish stress caused by some procedures such as capture and handling. In this context, the present study evaluated the potential of essential oils (EO) of three Brazilian native plants (Hesperozygis ringens, Lippia sidoides and Ocotea acutifolia) as anesthetics for the silver catfish - Rhamdia quelen. Moreover, an analysis was made of the chemical composition of these oils and their influence on stress parameter. EO of H. ringens and O. acutifolia were effective as anesthetics, without behavioral side effects. EO of O. acutifolia (150 µL L-1) promoted an increase in blood glucose level. Regarding to the composition, pulegone accounts for 96.63% of the EO of H. ringens, and caryophyllene oxide amounts to 56.90% of the EO of O. acutifolia. Two chemotypes, thymol and carvacrol (68.40% and 67.89%, respectively) were verified for EO of L. sidoides. Both samples of EO of L. sidoides showed anesthetic activity in silver catfish, but exposure also caused loss of mucus and mortality. Thus, only the EO of H. ringens and O. acutifolia are advised for anesthetic use

OBJECTIVES:The aim of this study was to compare the pattern of secretion and the expression of mucin glycoprotein-2 (MG2) and lactoferrin in individuals with or without periodontitis. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Five individuals with aggressive periodontitis (APG), 5 with generalized chronic periodontitis (CPG) and 5 without periodontitis (CG) were enrolled after informed consent. Non-stimulated and stimulated submandibular and sublingual saliva was collected and samples analyzed by Western blot probed with specific antibodies. RESULTS: Stimulated and non-stimulated salivary flow rates did not differ among groups. Western blot analysis revealed that stimulation led to: an increase in MG2 expression in all groups, and to lactoferrin expression in APG and CPG. In non-stimulated saliva, CG exhibited the highest expression of both glycoproteins. In stimulated saliva, CG exhibited the highest expression of MG2, whereas APG the highest of lactoferrin. CONCLUSIONS: The pattern of secretion of MG2 and lactoferrin in health and disease is complex. Although the present study analyzed samples from a limited number of participants, the reduced expression of MG2 and lactoferrin in APG and CPG under non-stimulated condition, the predominant circumstance of salivary secretion during the day, suggests that these salivary constituents may play a role in the etiopathogenesis of these diseases.

Thomas Addison descreveu pela primeira vez, há 150 anos, uma síndrome clínica de perda de sal em indivíduos com hiperpigmentação cutânea, associada à destruição da glândula adrenal. Atualmente, a insuficiência adrenal ainda representa uma condição de risco, pois seu diagnóstico é freqüentemente não reconhecido nas fases iniciais da doença. A adrenalite tuberculosa era a causa mais freqüente na maioria dos casos descritos inicialmente, mas, na atualidade, a doença de Addison auto-imune está presente em uma grande porcentagem de pacientes com insuficiência adrenal primária. No presente trabalho, apresentamos a prevalência das diferentes causas, manifestações clínicas e achados laboratoriais, incluindo a determinação de anticorpos anticórtex adrenal e anti-21-hidroxilase em pacientes acompanhados com insuficiência adrenal primária seguidos nos Ambulatórios das Divisões de Endocrinologia da Universidade Federal de São Paulo (UNIFESP) e da Faculdade de Medicina de Ribeirão Preto - USP (FMRP-USP).

Thomas Addison first described, 150 years ago, a clinical syndrome characterized by salt-wasting and skin hyperpigmentation, associated with a destruction of the adrenal gland. Even today, over a century after Addison's report, primary adrenal insufficiency can present as a life-threatening condition, since it frequently goes unrecognized in its early stages. In the 1850’s, tuberculous adrenalitis was present in the majority of patients, but nowadays, autoimmune Addison's disease is the most common cause of primary adrenal insufficiency. In the present report, we show the prevalence of different etiologies, clinical manifestations and laboratorial findings, including the adrenal cortex autoantibody, and 21-hydroxylase antibody in a Brazilian series of patients with primary adrenal insufficiency followed at Divisão de Endocrinologia da Universidade Federal de São Paulo (UNIFESP) and at Faculdade de Medicina de Ribeirão Preto - USP (FMRP-USP).
