Green Cavendish banana peel and pulp flours were obtained by three drying methods: oven dryer at 70 °C; air fryer at 180 °C and domestic oven at 180 °C, being the latter two new possibilities. Bioactive constituents using paper spray ionization mass spectrometry (PS-MS), phenolic identification and quantification by ultra-performance liquid chromatography with UV-Visible detection (UPLC/UV-Vis) and antioxidant capacity were evaluated. Phenolic acids showed distinct thermal stability between the treatments. Gallic acid was the predominant compound, ranging from (29.56 to 1211.74 mg 100 g-1) and had higher concentration than that found in other bananas described in literature. Green Cavendish banana flour is an advantageous source of bioactive compounds and antioxidant capacity, especially its peel. 26 compounds were identified by PS-MS: phenolics, organic acids, sugars, amino acid, phytosterol, iridoid and coumarin derivatives. Green Cavendish banana flour has great functional potential, and the air fryer can be a promising alternative for drying.

Abstract: En | Text: En | PDF: En

The incorporation of Cerrado fruits in food products such as ice cream has many advantages because it represents a source of nutrients and bioactive compounds. Given the demand for less laborious methods to analyze food, the paper spray ionization mass spectrometry technique was applied for the first time for a rapid characterization of the chemical components found cagaita ice cream. PS-MS in positive and negative ionization modes were used. The profile of volatile compounds was determined by headspace solid-phase microextraction combined with gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. Fingerprints obtained through PS-MS identified various classes of compounds, such as flavones, anthocyanins, sugars, organic acids, hydroxybenzoic acids, fatty acids, hydroxycinnamic acids, lignin, and phenylpropanoid. The use of both fibers enabled the extraction and identification of 18 volatile compounds in cagaita, and 16 of them were also identified in cagaita ice cream. The most common volatile compound found in both cagaita and ice cream was 3-carene monoterpene. Considering the effect of processing on cagaita constituents, 89% of the volatile compounds remained in the ice cream. Also, 78% of the fruit chemical compounds analyzed by PS-MS were found in the product. Thus, the results indicate that most of the fruit compounds remained in the ice cream after processing.

Resumo: O estudo teve com objetivos descrever as tendências na taxa de detecção de casos novos (TDCN) de hanseníase no Brasil em 2006-2017, global e por subgrupos, e analisar a evolução das características clínicas e terapêuticas dos pacientes, com ênfase nos casos diagnosticados com incapacidade física grau 2. Realizamos um estudo descritivo par analisar casos novos de hanseníase registrados no Sistema de Informação de Agravos de Notificação (SINAN), 2006-2017. Calculamos a TDCN de hanseníase por 100.000 habitantes (global e para indivíduos < 15 e ≥ 15 anos de idade) por sexo, idade, raça/etnicidade, área urbana/rural e macrorregião do Brasil e estimamos as tendências com o teste não paramétrico de Mann-Kendall. Analisamos as distribuições de casos de acordo com características clínicas relevantes ao longo do tempo. No Brasil, houve uma queda marcante na TDCN global, de 23,4/100.000 em 2006 para 10,3/100.000 em 2017; entre crianças < 15 anos, de 6,94 para 3,20/100.000. A queda foi consistente em todas a regiões brasileiras e em todas as categorias de raça/etnicidade. Até 2017, 70,2% dos casos eram multibacilares, 30,5% apresentavam incapacidades físicas grau 1 (G1D) ou grau 2 (G2D) ao diagnóstico e 42,8% não foram avaliados ao encerramento do tratamento ou alta; os casos com G2D ao diagnóstico foram detectados majoritariamente nas áreas urbanas (80%), e 5% dos casos faleceram durante o tratamento (devido à hanseníase ou por outras causas). Embora a frequência da TDCN da hanseníase tenha diminuído no Brasil entre 2006 e 2017 em todos os grupos avaliados, o número grande de casos com hanseníase multibacilar, incapacidades físicas ou sem avaliação adequada e entre crianças sugere a necessidade de reforçar o diagnóstico e tratamento oportunos para controlar a hanseníase no Brasil.

Abstract: Our study aims to describe trends in new case detection rate (NCDR) of leprosy in Brazil from 2006 to 2017 overall and in subgroups, and to analyze the evolution of clinical and treatment characteristics of patients, with emphasis on cases diagnosed with grade 2 physical disabilities. We conducted a descriptive study to analyze new cases of leprosy registered in the Brazilian Information System for Notificable Diseases (SINAN), from 2006-2017. We calculated the leprosy NCDR per 100,000 inhabitants (overall and for individuals aged < 15 and ≥ 15 years) by sex, age, race/ethnicity, urban/rural areas, and Brazilian regions, and estimated the trends using the Mann-Kendall non-parametric test. We analyzed the distributions of cases according to relevant clinical characteristics over time. In Brazil, there was a sharp decrease in the overall NCDR from 23.4/100,000 in 2006 to 10.3/100,000 in 2017; among children < 15 years, from 6.94 to 3.20/100,000. The decline was consistent in all Brazilian regions and race/ethnicity categories. By 2017, 70.2% of the cases were multibacillary, 30.5% had grade 1 (G1D) or 2 (G2D) physical disabilities at diagnosis and 42.8% were not evaluated at treatment completion/discharge; cases with G2D at diagnosis were mostly detected in urban areas (80%) and 5% of cases died during the treatment (leprosy or other causes). Although the frequency of leprosy NCDR decreased in Brazil from 2006 to 2017 across all evaluated population groups, the large number of cases with multibacillary leprosy, physical disabilities or without adequate evaluation, and among children suggest the need to reinforce timely diagnosis and treatment to control leprosy in Brazil.

Resumen: Se realizó este trabajo con el fin de describir la tendencia general y en subgrupos de la tasa de detección de nuevos casos de lepra (NCDR por sus siglas en inglés) en Brasil, entre 2006-2017, así como para analizar la evolución de las características clínicas y de tratamiento de los pacientes, con énfasis en los casos diagnosticados con un grado 2 de discapacidad física. Realizamos un estudio descriptivo para analizar los nuevos casos de lepra registrados en el Sistema Brasileño de Información de Enfermedades de Notificación (SINAN), 2006-2017. Calculamos la NCDR de lepra por cada 100.000 habitantes (general e individuos con una edad < 15 y ≥ 15 años) por sexo, edad, raza/etnicidad, áreas urbanas/rurales y regiones brasileñas, y estimamos las tendencias usando el test no paramétrico de Mann-Kendall. Analizamos las distribuciones de casos según las características clínicas relevantes a lo largo del tiempo. En Brasil, hubo una drástica disminución en general de NCDR de los 23,4/100.000 en 2006, a los 10,3/100.000 en 2017; entre niños < 15 años, desde los 6,94 a los 3,20/100.000. El decremento fue consistente en todas las regiones brasileñas y categorías de raza/etnicidad. En 2017, un 70,2% de los casos fueron multibacilares, un 30,5% tenían grado 1 (G1D) o 2 (G2D) discapacidad física en el diagnóstico y un 42,8% no fueron evaluados al completar el tratamiento/ser dados de alta; casos con G2D en el diagnóstico fueron en su mayoría detectados en áreas urbanas (80%) y un 5% de los casos murieron durante el tratamiento (lepra u otras causas). A pesar de la frecuencia de lepra los NCDR decrecieron en Brasil de 2006 a 2017, a través de todos los grupos de población evaluados, el elevado número de casos con lepra multibacilar, discapacidad física o sin una adecuada evaluación, y entre niños sugiere la necesidad de reforzar a tiempo el diagnóstico y tratamiento para controlar la lepra en Brasil.

Abstract: En | Text: En | PDF: En

Cagaita is a fruit from Brazilian cerrado, belongs to Myrtaceae family, and has important economic value. This work aimed to determine the total antioxidant capacity (extractable and non-extractable fractions) by different methods and to evaluate the use of paper spray mass spectrometry to obtain fingerprints of cagaita from different regions with the aid of principal components analysis. Cagaitas had higher antioxidant activity than those found in other fruits mentioned in literature, and the non-extractable fraction was 18.90 to 21.05% of the antioxidant capacity. The analysis of paper spray mass spectrometry in positive and negative ionization modes identified several substances, including organic acids, sugars, amino acids and several other classes of phenolic compounds. Analysis of the main components of cagaita samples permitted discrimination of the major constituents such as sugars and different kinds of phenolic compounds. Thus, this study demonstrated that paper spray mass spectrometry is a simple and ultrafast method with minimum sample preparation that allows the analysis of the chemical profile of cagaita.

Abstract: En | Text: En | PDF: En

The objective of this study was to explore the extraction and identification of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) present in cagaita fruit (Eugenia dysenterica). Parameters such as type of extraction fiber, agitation, extraction time and extraction temperature were investigated. Initially, the VOCs were extracted using headspace solid-phase microextraction. Then, the compounds were identified using gas chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry. Results revealed the presence of at least 26 different compounds and the polyacrylate (PA) fiber promoted the extraction of a larger number of VOCs. Regarding the PA fiber, the most efficient extraction was achieved using a 50 rpm agitation at 45 ºC for 30 min. The majority were monoterpenes (34.64%) and esters (36.28%). An increase in the extraction temperature promoted the isolation of more VOCs when using carboxen/polydimethylsiloxane (CAR/PDMS) and divinylbenzene/carboxen/polydimethylsiloxane (DVB/CAR/PDMS) fibers. However, these fibers allowed the isolation of a smaller number of VOCs. The extraction time and agitation had no significant influence.

Abstract: En | Text: En | PDF: En

ABSTRACT Prolactinomas are the most common pituitary adenomas (approximately 40% of cases), and they represent an important cause of hypogonadism and infertility in both sexes. The magnitude of prolactin (PRL) elevation can be useful in determining the etiology of hyperprolactinemia. Indeed, PRL levels > 250 ng/mL are highly suggestive of the presence of a prolactinoma. In contrast, most patients with stalk dysfunction, drug-induced hyperprolactinemia or systemic diseases present with PRL levels < 100 ng/mL. However, exceptions to these rules are not rare. On the other hand, among patients with macroprolactinomas (MACs), artificially low PRL levels may result from the so-called “hook effect”. Patients harboring cystic MACs may also present with a mild PRL elevation. The screening for macroprolactin is mostly indicated for asymptomatic patients and those with apparent idiopathic hyperprolactinemia. Dopamine agonists (DAs) are the treatment of choice for prolactinomas, particularly cabergoline, which is more effective and better tolerated than bromocriptine. After 2 years of successful treatment, DA withdrawal should be considered in all cases of microprolactinomas and in selected cases of MACs. In this publication, the goal of the Neuroendocrinology Department of the Brazilian Society of Endocrinology and Metabolism (SBEM) is to provide a review of the diagnosis and treatment of hyperprolactinemia and prolactinomas, emphasizing controversial issues regarding these topics. This review is based on data published in the literature and the authors' experience.

Os testes bioquímicos baseados na integridade de membranas são importantes na verificação do potencial fisiológico de lotes de sementes. Assim, este trabalho teve por objetivo determinar a viabilidade de testes bioquímicos de condutividade elétrica e de lixiviação de potássio na avaliação do vigor de sementes de Mimosa caesalpiniifolia. No teste de condutividade elétrica utilizaram-se duas amostras de sementes (25 e 50), dois volumes de água deionizada (50 e 75 mL), duas temperaturas (25 e 30 ºC) e cinco períodos de embebição (4, 8, 12, 16 e 24-h). Nos testes de condutividade elétrica e lixiviação de potássio, cinco lotes de sementes foram embebidos separadamente durante 4 e 8-h à temperatura de 30 °C. Os testes bioquímicos de condutividade elétrica e de lixiviação de potássio mostraram ser eficientes na avaliação do vigor de sementes de M. caesalpiniifolia, quando realizados com 25 sementes imersas em 50 mL de água deionizada, durante 8-h à temperatura de 30 °C.

RESUMO O objetivo com este estudo foi avaliar a utilização de silagens de diferentes cultivares de sorgo através do consumo, digestibilidade dos nutrientes e desempenho de ovinos. O experimento foi conduzido na Estação Experimental de Pendência, da Empresa Estadual de Pesquisa Agropecuária da Paraíba S.A. Para o experimento, foram utilizados trinta e cinco carneiros, sem raça definida, com peso vivo médio de 17,7 kg, distribuídos em um delineamento em blocos casualizados, com cinco tratamentos e sete repetições para determinar o consumo e desempenho; e 25 carneiros não castrados, sem raça definida, distribuídos em um delineamento inteiramente casualizado, com cinco tratamentos e cinco repetições, para determinar a digestibilidade dos nutrientes. O consumo médio diário de matéria seca foi, em média, 994,66 g. Somente os consumos médios de extrato etéreo, fibra em detergente neutro e carboidratos não-fibrosos, foram afetados pelas dietas. O ganho de peso (GP), conversão alimentar e eficiência alimentar dos animais que receberam as dietas não foram afetados pelos diferentes cultivares utilizados. Silagens de sorgo BRS 655, 610, 800, 810 e Ponta Negra promoveram consumo e digestibilidade de nutrientes semelhantes. A utilização de silagens de diferentes cultivares de sorgo (BRS 610, BRS 655, BRS 800, BRS 810 e Ponta Negra) em dietas para ovinos em confinamento promove desempenho e consumo similar.

SUMMARY The aim of this study was to evaluate the use of silages of different sorghum cultivars through digestibility and nutrient intake and performance of sheep. The experiment was conducted at the Pendência Experimental Station, of the State Company for Agricultural Research of Paraíba S.A. For the experiment, thirty-five rams were used, without defined breed, with average live weight of 17.7 kg, distributed in a completely randomized block design, with five diets and seven replicates to determine intake and performance; and 25 non-castrated rams, without defined breed, distributed in a completely randomized design with five diets and five replicates, to determine the digestibility of nutrients. The average daily intake of dry matter was, on average, 994.66 g. Only the average intakes of ether extract, neutral detergent fiber and non-fibrous carbohydrates, were affected by the diets. The weight gain (WG), feed conversion and feed efficiency of the animals receiving the diets suffered no effect. Silages of BRS 655, 610, 800, 810 and Ponta Negra provided similar intake and digestibility of nutrients. The use of silages of different sorghum cultivars (BRS 610, BRS 655, BRS 800, BRS 810 and Ponta Negra) in diets for confined sheep provide similar performance and intakes.

Abstract: En | Text: En | PDF: En

Click chemistry-based strategies for the synthesis of 2-amino-alkyl-1,2,3-triazole-1,4-naphthoquinone derivatives make it possible to obtain desired products from 1,4-naphthoquinone (1,4-NQ), and bio-based lawsone, nor-lapachol and lapachol. The first route (Strategy A) starting from 1,4-NQ and amino alcohols, then 2-amino-alkyl-1,4-NQ alcohols, were tosylated. The azide ion displaced the tosylate group to afford 2-azide-alkyl-1,4-NQ, which was submitted to a copper-catalyzed azide alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAC) condition. The triazole-naphthoquinones were obtained in an overall yield of roughly 47%. Another pathway (Strategy B) substituted bromo-alkyl-phthalimides using NaN3 as the nucleophile, sequential CuAAC and deprotection of phthalimide group with hydrazine producing amino-triazoles. The subsequent reaction with 1,4-NQ produced 2-amino-alkyl-1,2,3-triazole-1,4-NQ derivatives in an overall yield of 45-76% in four steps. After we developed these two strategies, linear synthesis (Strategy A) was chosen to prepare 2-[(2-(1H-1,2,3-triazol-1-yl)ethylamino)]-3-(3-methylpropenyl)-1,4-naphthoquinones from lawsone with an overall yield of approximately 27% in six steps. On the other hand, convergent synthesis (Strategy B) was employed for the synthesis of 2-[(4-phenyl-1H-1,2,3-triazol-1-yl)alkyl-amino)]-3-(3-methylbut-2-en-1-yl)-1,4-naphthoquinones from the reaction between 2-methoxy-lapachol with amino-triazoles with a global yield of about 21%. These synthetic strategies might lead us to new opportunities to build small-molecule libraries for future biological exploration.

Resumo Objetivo: Avaliar os níveis de hemoglobina glicada em pacientes heterozigotos para hemoglobinas variantes e comparar os resultados deste exame com grupo controle. Método: Trata-se de um estudo experimental, baseado na comparação do exame de hemoglobina glicada de duas populações diferentes, sendo um grupo teste, representado por indivíduos heterozigóticos para hemoglobinas variantes (AS e AC) e um grupo controle, constituído por pessoas com perfil eletroforético AA. As duas populações verificadas devem obedecer ao critério de inclusão: glicemia de jejum, hemoglobina, ureia e triglicérides normais, bilirrubina > 20 mg/dL e não fazer uso de ácido acetilsalicílico. Foram avaliados 50 indivíduos heterozigotos e 50 controles no período de agosto de 2013 a maio de 2014. A comparação dos valores de hemoglobina glicada entre indivíduos heterozigóticos e controle foi realizada por meio do desvio padrão, média e teste G. Resultados: O estudo analisou um grupo teste e um grupo controle, ambos com 39 adultos e 11 crianças. A média dos adultos heterozigotos para HbA1c foi de 5,0%, o grupo controle apresentou índice de 5,7%. Já as crianças heterozigóticas obtiveram média de HbA1c de 5,11%, enquanto as normais apresentaram valores médios de 5,78%. O valor do teste G foi de p=0,9 para crianças e p=0,89 para adultos. Conclusão: Este estudo avaliou HbA1c pela metodologia de cromatografia de coluna com resinas de troca iônica, em que pacientes com heterozigoses para hemoglobinas variantes não apresentaram uma diferença significativa em relação ao grupo controle.

Summary Objective: To evaluate the levels of glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) in patients heterozygous for hemoglobin variants and compare the results of this test with those of a control group. Method: This was an experimental study based on the comparison of HbA1c tests in two different populations, with a test group represented by individuals heterozygous for hemoglobin variants (AS and AC) and a control group consisting of people with electrophoretic profile AA. The two populations were required to meet the following inclusion criteria: Normal levels of fasting glucose, hemoglobin, urea and triglycerides, bilirubin > 20 mg/dL and non-use of acetylsalicylic acid. 50 heterozygous subjects and 50 controls were evaluated between August 2013 and May 2014. The comparison of HbA1c levels between heterozygous individuals and control subjects was performed based on standard deviation, mean and G-Test. Results: The study assessed a test group and a control group, both with 39 adults and 11 children. The mean among heterozygous adults for HbA1c was 5.0%, while the control group showed a rate of 5.74%. Heterozygous children presented mean HbA1c at 5.11%, while the controls were at 5.78%. G-Test yielded p=0.93 for children and p=0.89 for adults. Conclusion: Our study evaluated HbA1c using ion exchange chromatography resins, and the patients heterozygous for hemoglobin variants showed no significant difference from the control group.

Resumo Objetivo: Analisar as variáveis demográficas e clínicas associadas à diminuição da qualidade de vida em uma grande coorte brasileira de pacientes com espondiloartrite (EpA). Métodos: Foi aplicado um protocolo de pesquisa único a 1.465 pacientes brasileiros classificados como tendo EpA de acordo com os critérios do European Spondyloarthropaties Study Group (ESSG), atendidos em 29 centros de referência em reumatologia do Brasil. Foram registradas as variáveis clínicas e demográficas. A qualidade de vida foi analisada por meio do questionário Ankylosing Spondylitis Quality of Life (ASQoL). Resultados: A pontuação média do ASQoL foi de 7,74 (+ 5,39). Ao analisar doenças específicas no grupo de EpA, as pontuações do ASQoL não apresentaram diferença estatisticamente significativa. Os dados demográficos mostraram piores escores de ASQoL associados ao gênero feminino (p = 0,014) e etnia negra (p < 0,001). Quanto aos sintomas clínicos, a dor na região glútea (p = 0,032), a dor cervical (p < 0,001) e a dor no quadril (p = 0,001), estiveram estatisticamente associadas a piores escores no ASQoL. O uso contínuo de fármacos anti-inflamatórios não esteroides (p < 0,001) e agentes biológicos (p = 0,044) esteve associado a escores mais elevados de ASQoL, enquanto outros medicamentos não interferiram nos escores do ASQoL. Conclusão: Nesta grande série de pacientes com EpA, o sexo feminino e a etnia negra, bem como sintomas predominantemente axiais, estiveram associados a uma qualidade de vida reduzida.

Abstract Objective: To analyze quality of life and demographic and clinical variables associated to its impairment in a large Brazilian cohort of patients with spondyloarthritis (SpA). Methods: A common protocol of investigation was applied to 1465 Brazilian patients classified as SpA according to the European Spondyloarthropaties Study Group (ESSG) criteria, attended at 29 reference centers for Rheumatology in Brazil. Clinical and demographic variables were recorded. Quality of life was analyzed through the Ankylosing Spondylitis Quality of Life (ASQoL) questionnaire. Results: The mean ASQoL score was 7.74 (± 5.39). When analyzing the specific diseases in the SpA group, the ASQoL scores did not present statistical significance. Demographic data showed worse scores of ASQoL associated with female gender (p = 0.014) and African-Brazilian ethnicity (p < 0.001). Regarding clinical symptoms, buttock pain (p = 0.032), cervical pain (p < 0.001) and hip pain (p = 0.001), were statistically associated with worse scores of ASQoL. Continuous use of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (p < 0.001) and biologic agents (p = 0.044) were associated with higher scores of ASQoL, while the other medications did not interfere with the ASQoL scores. Conclusion: In this large series of patients with SpA, female gender and African-Brazilian ethnicity, as well as predominant axial symptoms, were associated with impaired quality of life.

Objetivo Avaliar os resultados da aplicação do Índice de Atividade de Doença da Espondilite Anquilosante de Bath (BASDAI) numa série de pacientes brasileiros com EpA e estabelecer suas correlações com as variáveis específicas do grupo. Métodos Um protocolo comum de investigação foi prospectivamente aplicado em 1.492 pacientes brasileiros classificados como EpA pelos critérios do Grupo Europeu de Estudo das Espondiloartropatias (ESSG), acompanhados em 29 centros de referência em reumatologia no Brasil. Variáveis clínicas, demográficas e índices de doença foram colhidos. Os valores totais do BASDAI foram comparados com a presença das diferentes variáveis. Resultados O valor médio do BASDAI foi de 4,20 ± 2,38. Os escores médios do BASDAI foram mais elevados nos pacientes com forma clínica combinada, comparado às formas axiais e periféricas isoladas, nos pacientes do sexo feminino e nos sedentários. Com relação ao componente axial, valores mais altos do BASDAI estiveram significativamente associados à lombalgia inflamatória, à dor alternante em nádegas, à dor cervical e ao acometimento de coxofemorais. Houve associação estatística entre os valores do BASDAI e o comprometimento periférico, relacionado ao número de articulações inflamadas, tanto dos membros inferiores quanto dos membros superiores, e às entesites. A positividade do HLA-B27 e a presença de manifestações extra-articulares não estiveram correlacionadas com os valores médios do BASDAI. Valores mais baixos do BASDAI estiveram associados ao uso de agentes biológicos (p < 0,001). Conclusão Nesta série heterogênea de pacientes brasileiros com EpA, o BASDAI conseguiu demonstrar “atividade de doença” tanto nos pacientes com acometimento axial quanto naqueles com envolvimento periférico.

Objective To analyze the results of the application of the Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Disease Activity Index (BASDAI) in a large series of Brazilian patients with the diagnosis of SpA and establish its correlations with specific variables into the group. Methods A common protocol of investigation was prospectively applied to 1492 Brazilian patients classified as SpA according to the European Spondyoarthropathies Study Group (ESSG), attended at 29 referral centers of Rheumatology in Brazil. Clinical and demographic variables, and disease indices (BASDAI, Basfi, Basri, Mases, ASQol) were applied. The total values of BASDAI were compared to the presence of the different variables. Results The mean score of BASDAI was 4.20 ± 2.38. The mean scores of BASDAI were higher in patients with the combined (axial + peripheral + entheseal) (4.54 ± 2.38) clinical presentation, compared to the pure axial (3.78 ± 2.27) or pure peripheral (4.00 ± 2.38) clinical presentations (P < 0.001). BASDAI also presented higher scores associated with the female gender (P < 0.001) and patients who did not practice exercises (P < 0.001). Regarding the axial component, higher values of BASDAI were significantly associated with inflammatory low back pain (P < 0.049), alternating buttock pain (P < 0.001), cervical pain (P < 0.001) and hip involvement (P < 0.001). There was also statistical association between BASDAI scores and the peripheral involvement, related to the lower (P = 0.004) and upper limbs (P = 0.025). The presence of enthesitis was also associated to higher scores of BASDAI (P = 0.040). Positive HLA-B27 and the presence of cutaneous psoriasis, inflammatory bowel disease, uveitis and urethritis were not correlated with the mean scores of BASDAI. Lower scores of BASDAI were associated with the use of biologic agents (P < 0.001). Conclusion In this heterogeneous Brazilian series of SpA patients, BASDAI was able to demonstrate “disease activity” in patients with axial as well as peripheral disease.

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

Intervenções no ambiente escolar têm sido avaliadas para analisar a qualidade da implementação de suas ações e o perfil dos participantes envolvidos. O objetivo deste estudo foi analisar os resultados da avaliação de processo da intervenção "Saúde na Boa"; e testar diferenças entre estudantes permanecentes e não permanecentes até o final da intervenção. Das vinte escolas selecionadas, dez foram sorteadas para a condição "intervenção" e dez compuseram o grupo "controle", em Recife/PE, e Florianópolis/SC. A avaliação de processo foi realizada nestas escolas, considerando cinco eixos (conhecimento, visibilidade, ambiente, aulas de Educação Física e atividades extraclasse), classificando-se a qualidade operacional da intervenção conforme a mediana do escore em cada um destes fatores (Mediana= 0,0 a 1,0: baixa; 1,1 a 2,0: moderada; 2,1 a 3,0: elevada). As características dos estudantes na linha de base (março de 2006) foram comparadas entre os permanecentes (n= 989) e não permanecentes (n= 1166). Verificou-se qualidade operacional moderada à elevada da intervenção para os itens conhecimento da intervenção (Mediana= 2,0), distribuição de frutas e instalação de bicicletários (Mediana= 1,5), aquisição de materiais (Mediana= 3,0) e distribuição de boletins (Mediana= 2,0). O grupo de não permanecentes apresentou significativamente maior frequência de rapazes (47,8% vs. 40,3%), de jovens que trabalhavam (49,2% vs. 44,2), que consumiam cigarros (21,8% vs. 13,6%) e bebidas alcoólicas (57,4% vs. 49,5%), e dormiam ≥8 h/dia (19,5% vs. 27,3%) do que os permanecentes. Portanto, a intervenção apresentou qualidade operacional moderada, e o perfil do abandono diferiu com relação ao sexo, ocupação e consumo de drogas lícitas.

School-based interventions have been evaluated to examine its implementation quality and to identify the characteristics of successful participants. The objective was to analyze the process evaluation of the "Saúde na Boa" intervention and to test differences between successful participants and dropouts. Twenty schools were randomly selected to receive the intervention (n= 10) or the control (n= 10), in Recife-PE and Florianopolis-SC. The process evaluation was performed in the intervention schools using a checklist of items from five domains (knowledge, visibility, environment, Physical Education classes and extracurricular activities). The operational intervention quality was classified using the median score from each domain (median from 0.0 to 1.0= low, from 1.1 to 2.0= moderate, and from 2.1 to 3.0= high). Student characteristics were assessed at baseline (March 2006) and were compared between the participants who successfully completed the intervention (n= 989) and the dropouts (n= 1,166). We verified moderate to high operational quality of the intervention for knowledge (median= 2.0), fruit distribution and bike rack installation (median= 1.5), acquisition of materials (median= 3.0) and distribution of journals (median= 2.0). Students who dropped out were significantly more frequent in male (47.8% vs. 40.3%), in workers students (49.2% vs. 44.2%), those who smoked (21.8% vs. 13.6%) and consumed alcoholic beverages (57.4% vs. 49.5%), and slept ≥8 h/day (19.5% vs. 27.3%), than participants who did not drop out. Therefore, the "Saúde na Boa" intervention was of moderate operational quality. Participants and dropout students differed according to their gender, work status and use of licit drugs.
