Granulometry is an initial factor to be considered in soil research as it plays a fundamental role in physical and chemical properties. The objective of this study was to characterize the granulometric fractions of soil, obtained using the screening and sedimentation method. The Dynamic Light Scattering (DLS), Mid-Infrared (MIR), and Scanning Electron Microscopy with Field Emission Gun (SEM-FEG) techniques were used for this purpose. The quantitative results showed that this soil presents high percentage of clay, followed by fine sand fraction, silt fraction and, finally, the coarse sand fraction. The results obtained by DLS qualify this technique as a procedure to evaluate the quality of the granulometric fractionation of the clay fraction. The MIR analyzes detected characteristic vibrational states of minerals such as kaolinite, halloysite, gibbsite, and quartz. Few works in the literature characterize the clay fraction of the soil without chemical treatment using the SEM-FEG technique. Thus, in this work, pseudo-hexagonal structures were identified, typical of the kaolinite mineral and, to a lesser extent, structures with a filamentous needle-like morphology, which can be ascribed to illite and/or halloysite, whose inorganic functional groups were identified by MIR in the clay fraction of the soil.

Abstract Objective To evaluate clinical characteristics and outcomes of COVID-19 patients infected with HIV, and to compare with a paired sample without HIV infection. Methods This is a substudy of a Brazilian multicentric cohort that comprised two periods (2020 and 2021). Data was obtained through the retrospective review of medical records. Primary outcomes were admission to the intensive care unit, invasive mechanical ventilation, and death. Patients with HIV and controls were matched for age, sex, number of comorbidities, and hospital of origin using the technique of propensity score matching (up to 4:1). They were compared using the Chi-Square or Fisher's Exact tests for categorical variables and the Wilcoxon for numerical variables. Results Throughout the study, 17,101 COVID-19 patients were hospitalized, and 130 (0.76%) of those were infected with HIV. The median age was 54 (IQR: 43.0;64.0) years in 2020 and 53 (IQR: 46.0;63.5) years in 2021, with a predominance of females in both periods. People Living with HIV (PLHIV) and their controls showed similar prevalence for admission to the ICU and invasive mechanical ventilation requirement in the two periods, with no significant differences. In 2020, in-hospital mortality was higher in the PLHIV compared to the controls (27.9% vs. 17.7%; p = 0.049), but there was no difference in mortality between groups in 2021 (25.0% vs. 25.1%; p > 0.999). Conclusions Our results reiterate that PLHIV were at higher risk of COVID-19 mortality in the early stages of the pandemic, however, this finding did not sustain in 2021, when the mortality rate is similar to the control group.

ABSTRACT Use of soil in forensic science is related to its several chemical, physical, and biological properties associated with its capacity to adhere to different materials and surfaces. Forensic soil experts and police investigators have been using soil samples as an aid in criminal investigations. Soils can act as fingerprints because they present contrasting physical, chemical, biological, and mineralogical properties. However, depending on the analytical tools utilized to characterize the soil, differentiating the samples when they have similar properties might be impossible. Thus, soil utilization as a fingerprint material requires increasing the number of variables measured as well as the accuracy and precision of the measurements. This study presents the feasibility of methods based on X-ray fluorescence (XRF) and radiation interaction parameters to discriminate soils for forensic investigations. Analyses of soil particle size, elemental composition (XRF), mass attenuation coefficient (μ), atomic (σa) and electronic (σe) cross-sections, effective atomic number (Zeff), and electron density (Nel) were carried out to evaluate the potential of nuclear parameters to differentiate soils. Ten different soil types collected at 0.00-0.05 m layer were studied. The radiation interaction parameters were obtained through the XCOM computer code, while the experimental measurements were carried out by the traditional gamma-ray attenuation method utilizing the radioactive sources of 241Am and 137Cs. The results showed that the soils presented broad differences in terms of clay, silt, and sand contents as well as in the major oxides. These differences influenced the radiation attenuation properties as verified through the multivariate analysis. For the lowest photon energy studied (10 and 30 keV), σe was the most interesting parameter to discriminate the soils. For energies above 59.5 keV, Zeff and Nel were the most important parameters. Good agreement was found between the calculated and measured parameters. The findings of this study indicate that radiation interaction parameters have great potential for crime scene investigation providing new parameters for better discrimination of soils. The main advantage of the method presented here is that it is fast, easy to implement, does not require powerful computers, and the XCOM code can be run online at the NIST (National Institute of Standards and Technology, USA) website.

Abstract Aim: To evaluate the chronic effects of resistance training on resting blood pressure, handgrip strength, gait speed, and Timed Up and Go test (TUG) in normotensive and hypertensive elderly individuals. Methods: Experimental study based on TREND. Hypertensive patients were diagnosed by an independent doctor. Before and after 12 weeks of progressive resistance training, we evaluated blood pressure, heart rate, body composition, Timed Up and Go test, gait speed, and handgrip strength. Results: Sample consisted of 41 participants divided into two groups (normotensive n = 28; hypertensive n = 13). We observed significant values in the reduction of blood pressure levels only in the group of hypertensive participants. In functionality outcomes, we observed significant values in all tests and both groups. Outcomes contemplate effect sizes ranging from small to moderate. Conclusion: Progressive resistance training lowers resting blood pressure levels, increases handgrip strength, and improves physical functional performance. Although the normotensive group did not show a reduction in blood pressure levels, an improvement was observed in the functional physical tests.

RESUMO A família Cucurbitaceae, possui algumas espécies cujas sementes apresentam dormência, inclusive Momordica balsamina L. Esta característica obriga à utilização de métodos de quebra de dormência para aceleração do processo de germinação. Assim, objectivou-se avaliar a germinação das sementes a diferentes temperaturas após o pré-tratamento das mesmas. Utilizou-se um delineamento inteiramente casualizado, em esquema factorial 4x3 com quatro repetições de 25 sementes por modalidade, sendo quatro pré-tratamentos: remoção do tegumento; humedecimento do substrato com solução de KNO3 a 0,1%; pré-esfriamento a 10 ºC durante 3 dias e a testemunha e três temperaturas de germinação 25, 30 e 35ºC em câmaras do tipo BOD. Posteriormente procedeu-se à avaliação da primeira contagem de germinação, germinação, velocidade de emergência de plântulas e emergência de plântulas. Os resultados evidenciaram dormência tegumentar (física) das sementes. A remoção do tegumento e as temperaturas de 25 ou 30 ºC, com 97 e 96% de sementes germinadas respectivamente, proporcionaram condições ideais para germinação.

ABSTRACT The Cucurbitaceae family has some species with dormant seeds, including Momordica balsamina. Therefore, several methods have been used to overcome dormancy, as these help to accelerate the germination process. In this way, the objective was to evaluate seed germination at different temperatures after seed pre-treatments. The seed pre-treatments were: removal of the integument; wetting the substrate with 0.1% KNO3 solution; pre-cooling to 10 ºC for 3 days and control. Thereafter seeds germination temperatures were 25, 30 and 35 ºC in a BOD. Four replications of 25 seeds for each pre-treatment and temperature were used. After 21 days of the test assembly first germination count, germination, seedling emergence speed and seedling emergence were evaluated. The results showed physical seed dormancy. The removal of the tegument and the temperatures of 25 or 30 ºC, with 97 and 96% of germinated seeds respectively, provided ideal conditions for germination.

Abstract The Program for Biodiversity Research (PPBio) is an innovative program designed to integrate all biodiversity research stakeholders. Operating since 2004, it has installed long-term ecological research sites throughout Brazil and its logic has been applied in some other southern-hemisphere countries. The program supports all aspects of research necessary to understand biodiversity and the processes that affect it. There are presently 161 sampling sites (see some of them at Supplementary Appendix), most of which use a standardized methodology that allows comparisons across biomes and through time. To date, there are about 1200 publications associated with PPBio that cover topics ranging from natural history to genetics and species distributions. Most of the field data and metadata are available through PPBio web sites or DataONE. Metadata is available for researchers that intend to explore the different faces of Brazilian biodiversity spatio-temporal variation, as well as for managers intending to improve conservation strategies. The Program also fostered, directly and indirectly, local technical capacity building, and supported the training of hundreds of undergraduate and graduate students. The main challenge is maintaining the long-term funding necessary to understand biodiversity patterns and processes under pressure from global environmental changes.

Abstract The purpose of this research was to discriminate soil fractions using mineralogical and elemental analyses and to show those fractions that present greater contribution to the soil mass attenuation coefficient (μ) as well as their partial cross-sections for photoelectric absorption (PA), coherent scattering (CS) and incoherent scattering (IS). Soil samples from different places of Brazil classified as Yellow Argisol, Yellow Latosol and Gray Argisol were submitted to elemental and mineralogical analyses through energy dispersive X-ray fluorescence (EDXRF) and Rietveld Method with X-ray diffraction data (RM-XRD). The mixture rule was utilized to calculate μ of each soil. The EDXRF analysis showed as predominant elements Si, Al, Fe and Ti oxides. The highest contents were Si (914.3 to 981.3 g kg-1) in the sand fractions, Al (507.9 to 543.7 g kg-1) and Fe (32.5 to 76.7 g kg-1) in the clay fractions, and Ti (18.0 to 59.0 g kg-1) in the silt fractions. The RM-XRD allowed identifying that the sand fractions are predominantly made of quartz (913.3 to 995.0 g kg-1), while the clay greatest portion is made of kaolinite (465.0 to 660.6 g kg-1) and halloysite (169.0 to 385.0 g kg-1). The main effect responsible for μ was IS (50 to 61.4%) followed by PA (28 to 40.1%) and CS (9.9 to 10.6%). By using the principal component analysis (PC-1: 57.5% and PC-2: 20.9%), the samples were differentiated through the discrimination between physical, chemical and mineralogical properties. The results obtained suggest that general information about the radiation interaction in soils can be obtained through the elemental and mineralogical analyses of their fractions.

Abstract Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic and autoimmune systemic inflammatory disease that can cause irreversible joint deformities, with increased morbidity and mortality and a significant impact on the quality of life of the affected individual. The main objective of RA treatment is to achieve sustained clinical remission or low disease activity. However, up to 40% of patients do not respond to available treatments, including bDMARDs. New therapeutic targets for RA are emerging, such as Janus kinases (JAKs). These are essential for intracellular signaling (via JAK-STAT) in response to many cytokines involved in RA immunopathogenesis. JAK inhibitors (JAKi) have established themselves as a highly effective treatment, gaining increasing space in the therapeutic arsenal for the treatment of RA. The current recommendations aim to present a review of the main aspects related to the efficacy and safety of JAKis in RA patients, and to update the recommendations and treatment algorithm proposed by the Brazilian Society of Rheumatology in 2017.

ABSTRACT This review presents the basic research and some applications of the gamma-ray attenuation, neutron gauges, and 137Cs fallout techniques for studying soil physical processes and properties. The selected studies aimed to give the readers a general idea of the use of these nuclear techniques carried out by Brazilian researchers in the past decades. It is expected to assist future researchers by identifying knowledge gaps and opportunities for applying the methods presented here. Around 100 studies were selected for this review. The papers dealing with gamma-ray attenuation are mostly related to the analysis of soil radiation interactions, the measurement of basic soil physical properties, the evaluation of hydraulic conductivity, water retention curve, and soil mechanical analysis. Neutron gauge applications are related to monitoring the water distribution and balance at the field scale, procedures for calibrating the existing gauge for the Brazilian soils, and analyzing the spatial and temporal variability of the soil water content. The 137Cs methodology involves studies about the erosion and sediment deposition in small watersheds and riparian zones, the spatial variability of 137Cs inventories at reference sites, and the measurement of sediment spatial distributions. Future studies with the gamma-ray attenuation methodology should focus on a better comprehension of the photon interaction with the soil and a correct selection of photon energies to investigate contrasting soils. This is mandatory for adopting it as a reliable tool for soil characterization. This review also revealed that the challenges for the future use of the 137Cs fallout technique involve the continuous decrease of the 137Cs activity worldwide, including in Brazil. Advances in detection systems (gamma spectrometers) will be required to overcome this issue. Future studies should focus on the use of correction factors related to the enrichment of fine particles during the transport of sediments to improve the estimates obtained through the conversion models. The use of neutron gauges to detect soil water content at the field scale depends on the adoption of reliable calibration curves. Then, comprehending how soil properties alter this curve and how it affects the water balance is a study of great interest. Motivated by strict regulations on the use of radioactive materials, the adoption of gauges with less activity is becoming a new goal. Thus, the development of more effective systems of neutron detection is crucial.
