Resumo Um macho de Pteronura brasiliensis (Carnivora: Mustelidae) foi encontrado morto às margens do Rio Negro, no Pantanal do estado de Mato Grosso do Sul, município de Aquidauana. Dois carrapatos encontrados aderidos à sua pele foram identificados, morfologicamente, como uma ninfa de segundo ínstar de Ornithodoros rostratus (Argasidae) e um macho de Amblyomma sculptum (Ixodidae). Para complementar a identificação morfológica, esses espécimes de carrapatos foram submetidos à extração de DNA e testados por meio de ensaios de PCR, para confirmar a identidade molecular dos espécimes. Além disso, os extraídos dos carrapatos foram testados e revelaram-se negativos nos ensaios de PCR para todos os patógenos testados. Também foram examinados 30 lotes, compostos por 174 indivíduos de O. rostratus, depositados na Coleção Acari do Instituto Butantan, e encontramos material de quatro estados brasileiros, incluindo-se um lote contendo 2 machos e 2 fêmeas de Aquidauana, estado de Mato Grosso do Sul (MS), coletado do solo. Este foi, portanto, o primeiro registro de O. rostratus parasitando P. brasiliensis e o primeiro registro de localidade (Aquidauana). Da mesma forma, A. sculptum é comumente encontrado no Pantanal e relatado aqui, pela segunda vez, parasitando a ariranha, hospedeiro pouco estudado em relação a ectoparasitas.

Abstract A male of Pteronura brasiliensis (Carnivora: Mustelidae) was found dead on the banks of the Rio Negro, in the Pantanal wetlands of Mato Grosso do Sul state, Aquidauana municipality. Two ticks found attached to its skin were morphologically identified as a second-instar nymph of Ornithodoros rostratus (Argasidae) and a male of Amblyomma sculptum (Ixodidae). In order to complement the morphological identification, these tick specimens were subjected to DNA extraction, and tested using PCR assays to confirm the molecular identity the specimens. Also, the tick DNA samples were tested and were negative in the PCR assays for all the pathogens tested. We also examined 30 batches, consisting of 174 individuals of O. rostratus deposited in the Acari Collection of the Butantan Institute, and we found material from four Brazilian states, including one batch containing 2 males and 2 females from Aquidauana, of Mato Grosso do Sul state, collected from the soil. This was therefore the first record of O. rostratus parasitizing P. brasiliensis and the first locality record (Aquidauana). Likewise, A. sculptum is commonly found in the Pantanal and is reported here for the second time parasitizing the giant otter, which is a host little studied regarding the ectoparasites.

Toads of the Rhinella genus have a pair of paratoid glands that store biological secretions of high toxicity and varied chemical composition, rich in biologically active compounds. The present work aimed to carry out the investigation of the metabolomic profile and evaluation of the biological potential of the secretion paratoid glands (PGS) from Rhinella granulosa. The paratoid secretion was collected in the Piauí state (Brazil), extracted with methanol and the extract was analyzed by ultra-performance liquid chromatography with quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry. Fifty chemical constituents were identified. The extract showed cytotoxicity against tumor cell lines of the central nervous system (half maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) = 1.9 µg mL-1) and prostate (IC50 = 1.6 µg mL-1), unsatisfactory antimicrobial potential (minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) > 312 µg mL-1) and inhibited the enzyme acetylcholinesterase (IC50 = 5.119 mg mL-1). The results presented relevant information about the PGS and contributed to the understanding of the metabolomic and biological potential of R. granulosa.

ABSTRACT The slope of cultivation channels and types of nutrient solutions in hydroponics and aquaponics influence nutrient absorption and plant production. This research aimed to evaluate lettuce production under different channel slopes and nutrient solutions in hydroponic and aquaponic systems using the nutrient film technique (NFT). A randomized block design was used, with three replicates, in a 3 × 5 split-plot scheme, with three nutrient solutions (conventional hydroponic solution and two wastewaters from the tilapia fish diets, with 15 and 18% of crude protein) and five slopes (2, 4, 6, 8 and 10%) of cultivation channels (PVC tubes). The following variables were evaluated: fresh and dry mass of shoot and roots and the chemical elements of the solutions. In the tilapia feed, the nutrient solution with 18% of protein (wastewater) provides greater production and accumulation of nutrients (N and P) in the lettuce shoot. The slope of 8% on cultivation channels provides greater production of iceberg lettuce, cultivar Lucy Brown. The different slopes and nutrient solutions studied did not influence the potassium (K) accumulation in the lettuce shoot.

RESUMO A declividade dos canais de cultivo e os tipos de solução nutritiva em hidroponia e aquaponia influenciam a absorção de nutrientes e produção vegetal. O objetivo da presente pesquisa foi avaliar a produção de alface sob diferentes declividades de canais e soluções nutritivas em sistemas hidropônico e aquapônico, em fluxo laminar de nutrientes (NFT). Utilizou-se o delineamento em blocos ao acaso, com três repetições, em esquema de parcelas subdivididas 3 × 5, com três soluções nutritivas (solução hidropônica convencional e duas águas residuárias provenientes da dieta de tilápias, a 15 e 18% de proteína bruta) e cinco declives (2, 4, 6, 8 e 10%) de canais de cultivo (tubos de PVC). Foram avaliadas as seguintes variáveis: massa fresca e seca da parte aérea e das raízes; e elementos químicos das soluções. A solução nutritiva com 18% de proteína (água residuária), na alimentação da tilápia, proporciona maior produção e acúmulo de nutrientes (N e P) na parte aérea da alface. A declividade de 8% nos canais de cultivo proporciona maior produção de alface americana, cv. Lucy Brown. As diferentes declividades e soluções nutritivas estudadas não influenciaram o acúmulo de potássio (K) na parte aérea da alface.

ABSTRACT Nematodes of the Meloidogyne genus are among the main limiting factors of world agricultural productivity. Its management is quite complex and alternative methods such as the use of extracts have been widely studied. This study aimed to evaluate the penetration and development of M. javanica in soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merr.) treated with Ascophyllum nodosum extract and assess this algal product and its nutrient components in nematode management. Experiment 1 comprised five sampling times (5, 10, 15, 20, and 25 d after nematode inoculation) and three application methods (planting hole, foliar spraying, and untreated control). Soybean plants were inoculated with 2000 eggs+second-stage juveniles of M. javanica and treated with algal extract. Total nematode number, number of nematodes per developmental stage, and population density (nematodes g-1 root) were determined. Experiment 2 consisted of 11 treatments: Algal extract, N, K, P, Ca, Mg, Cu, Zn, Mn, Fe, combined nutrients, and untreated control. Soybean crops were evaluated for total nematode number, population density, gall index, plant height, root fresh weight, shoot fresh weight, and shoot dry weight. In Experiment 1, algal extract reduced nematode penetration, regardless of application method. There was a decrease in the total number of nematodes and number of nematode g-1 root by 83% and 56% in the application via furrow and 68% and 70% via foliar application, respectively. In Experiment 2, all nutrient treatments reduced at least one nematode parameter, with P, Ca, Mg, Fe, and combined nutrients (Trial 1) and algal extract, P, Ca, Mg, Cu, Zn, Mn, Fe and combined nutrients (Trial 2) achieving 83% to 95% reductions in population density. Nutrient treatments positively influenced vegetative development, as a 20% increase in height for the nutrients A. nodosum, N, K, P, Ca, Mg, Cu and Fe. Ascophyllum nodosum and its nutrient components have potential in the management of M. javanica in soybean.

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.

In juice and pulp extraction, about 10% of fruit waste is generated, which often ends up in landfills that can cause environmental damage, serve as food for insects and rodents, and cause health problems for humans. In this work, micronized guava waste was used as a filler in vulcanized compounds in natural rubber. Mechanical properties such as hardness, tensile strength, tear resistance, and abrasion resistance were evaluated, as well as thermal properties such as thermogravimetric analysis, in addition to scanning electron microscopy, X-ray fluorescence, elemental analysis, and infrared spectroscopy. According to the results of the mechanical properties tests, the addition of up to 20 phr of the filler tends to improve the tensile strength of the composites, resulting in an increase in the density of cross-links obtained through the Flory-Rehner method. The thermal behavior analyzed by TGA and FTIR spectra were not affected by the incorporation of fillers.

Abstract Psalidodon jequitinhonhae was originally proposed as a variety of Tetragonopterus rutilus, based on the analysis of 14 specimens from the Jequitinhonha River, Brazil. In 1910 it was relocated in Astyanax, as A. fasciatus jequitinhonhae in Tetragonopterinae and in 2020 in Psalidodon, as Stethaprioninae member. However, in none of these revisions, P. jequitinhonhae was morphologically redescribed. A short sequence of the Cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (COI) gene obtained from one of the syntypes is compared to sequences obtained from new samples, allowing the recognition of the species and its morphological redescription based on new specimens. Both morphological and molecular data converged and corroborated P. jequitinhonhae as a valid species, occurring in the Jequitinhonha and Pardo river basins in Brazil. The syntype that provided the analyzed COI sequence is referred to as the lectotype by present designation.

Resumo Psalidodon jequitinhonhae foi proposta originalmente como uma variedade de Tetragonopterus rutilus, a partir da análise de 14 exemplares coletados no rio Jequitinhonha, Brasil. Em 1910 foi realocada em Astyanax, como A. fasciatus jequitinhonhae em Tetragonopterinae e em 2020 em Psalidodon, como membro de Stethaprioninae. Em nenhuma dessas revisões, no entanto, P. jequitinhonhae foi redescrita morfologicamente. A obtenção de uma sequência curta do gene COI a partir de um dos síntipos, comparada a sequências obtidas em novas amostras, permitiu o reconhecimento da espécie e a sua redescrição morfológica com base em novos espécimes. Tanto os dados morfológicos quanto os moleculares convergiram e corroboraram P. jequitinhonhae como uma espécie válida, ocorrendo nas bacias dos rios Jequitinhonha e Pardo no Brasil. O síntipo que forneceu a sequência de COI analisada é designado como lectótipo.

Abstract The Santos Basin (SB) is the main petroliferous basin in the Brazilian continental margin and one of the most studied marine areas in Brazil. However, historical data suggest that new efforts should be carried out to acquire quantitative biological data, especially in the deep sea, to establish the baseline of essential ocean variables in different ecosystems for future monitoring programs. The Brazilian energy company Petrobras planned and executed 24 oceanographic cruises over a period of 2 years to assess the benthic (SANSED cruise) and pelagic (SANAGU cruise) systems of the SB (356 days at sea in 2019 and 2021/2022). These efforts were part of the Santos Project, which comprised a comprehensive environmental study aimed at investigating benthic and pelagic variables to characterize ecology, biogeochemistry, thermohaline properties of water masses, and ocean circulation patterns, geomorphology, and sedimentology, as well as organic and inorganic chemistry. Here we present the detailed sampling designs and the field methods employed on board, during the SB scientific cruises. All sampling protocols were based on standardized approaches. For the benthos analyses, triplicate sediment samples were performed using a GOMEX-type box corer (0.25 m²) or a large modified Van Veen grab (0.75 m²) at 100 stations ranging from 25 to 2400 m depth. At each station, 25 geochemical and physico-chemical parameters were analyzed in addition to micro-, meio-, and macrofauna and living foraminifera samples. For the pelagic system, 60 stations were selected to investigate the plankton community, ranging in size from pico- to macroplankton, through vertical, horizontal, and oblique net hauls (20, 200, and 500 μm mesh size), as well as 25 biogeochemical parameters collected with an aid of a CTD-rosette sampler. Part of this scientific information also serves the Regional Environmental Characterization Project (PCR-BS) in support of Petrobras’ Santos Basin drilling licensing process led by the Brazilian Environmental Agency – IBAMA. This project contributes to the sustainable development of the SB, in line with the guidelines of the United Nations Decade of Ocean Science for Sustainable Development.

Resumen Introducción. El pueblo hitnü vive en condiciones sanitarias precarias, con inseguridad alimentaria y víctima de la violencia sociopolítica en Arauca (Colombia). Además, se sospecha que pueden estar afectados por la exposición a los hidrocarburos del petróleo. Objetivo. Identificar los eventos de salud del perfil de morbilidad y mortalidad de los indígenas hitnü que podrían asociarse con la exposición a petróleo crudo. Materiales y métodos. Se realizó un estudio transversal con indígenas hitnü, durante febrero y marzo de 2021, época de sequía. Se aplicó un cuestionario de hogares y uno individual para recolectar datos del ambiente peridomiciliario, ocupaciones y otras actividades, así como datos sociodemográficos, signos, síntomas y hallazgos de un examen médico. La potencial asociación con los hidrocarburos se exploró considerando tres grupos, según su localización: cabecera de Arauca, resguardo Aspejená (no expuestos) y resguardos de San José del Lipa y La Vorágine (expuestos por su cercanía al río Ele y afluentes). Con listados libres, se exploraron las causas de muerte. El estudio incorporó un riguroso manejo intercultural en todos sus componentes. Resultados. Participaron 576 indígenas de 16 asentamientos. El agua consumida pudo servir como medio de exposición a los hidrocarburos. Los problemas de salud fueron muy variados e incluían enfermedades infecciosas y crónicas, malnutrición y trauma. Las masas en el cuello se asociaron con residir en los resguardos ancestrales (RP=3,86; IC95% 1,77-8,39), territorios potencialmente expuestos al petróleo. Las causas de muerte más relevantes fueron el homicidio, los tumores y la tuberculosis. Conclusión: Por su posible asociación con los hidrocarburos, es prioritario el estudio intercultural de linfoadenopatías entre indígenas potencialmente expuestos al petróleo.

Abstract Introduction: The Hitnü indigenous people live in precarious sanitary conditions, with food insecurity and being victims of sociopolitical violence in Arauca, Colombia. In addition, it is possible that they may be affected by exposure to hydrocarbons found in oil. Objective: To identify the health outcomes of morbidity and mortality profiles of the Hitnü people that could be associated with the exposure to crude oil. Materials and methods: A cross-sectional study was carried out with Hitnü indigenous people, during February and March, 2021, time of drought. A household questionnaire was applied, and one individual to collect data from the environment around the house, occupations and other activities, as well as data from sociodemographic, signs, symptoms, and findings of a medical examination. The potential association with hydrocarbons was explored considering three groups: inhabitants in Arauca city, Aspejaná reserve (not exposed), and San José del Lipa and La Vorágine reserves (exposed by the Ele river and tributaries). With free listings, causes of death were explored. The study incorporated a rigorous intercultural management in all its components. Results: A total of 576 indigenous people from 16 settlements participated. The water consumed could serve as means of exposure to hydrocarbons. Health problems were very varied, including infectious and chronic diseases, malnutrition, and trauma. The masses on the neck were associated with residing in the ancestral reserves (PR = 3.86; CI95% 1.77-8.39), territories with potential exposure to crude-oil. The most relevant causes of death were homicide, tumors, and tuberculosis. Conclusion: For its possible association with exposure to hydrocarbons, it is a priority to start the intercultural study of lymphadenopathies in indigenous communities potentially exposed to crude oil.

Resumen Las enfermedades cardiovasculares y la depresión se consideran problemas de salud pública, la depresión es un factor de riesgo para pacientes con insuficiencia cardiaca (IC) por sus implicaciones clínicas. El objetivo de este estudio fue describir dos modalidades de intervenciones psicoterapéuticas en el abordaje de la depresión en pacientes con IC. Métodos de búsqueda: Se realizaron búsquedas en las bases especializadas MEDLINE, PubMed, PsycINFO, Web of Science, CINAHL y Cochrane Library de 2010 a 2020. Criterios de selección: Se seleccionaron los artículos por título y resumen, publicados en los últimos 10 años, escritos en castellano o inglés y se eliminaron los registros repetidos. Obtención de los datos: Tres autores recopilaron la información de los estudios que se documentan. Resultados principales: Se incluyeron 4 estudios clínicos con 911 pacientes, se realizaron en 4 países en los últimos 10 años y se implementaron diferentes métodos de intervenciones digitales y visitas domiciliarias, los efectos de estos tratamientos han sido estadísticamente significativos para reducir los puntajes de depresión autoinformada en pacientes con IC que recibieron la intervención psicoterapéutica en alguna de estas modalidades a comparación de aquellos pacientes que solo recibieron un tratamiento estándar. Conclusiones: Debido al número limitado de estudios y de los diferentes métodos de intervención no se identifica un tratamiento estándar de la depresión en IC en estos formatos de atención, por lo que se recomienda más investigación en este campo de estudio.

Obtaining the data: Three authors collected information from the studies being documented. Main results: We included 4 clinical studies with 911 patients, were conducted in 4 countries in the last 10 years and implemented different methods of digital interventions and home visits, the effects of these treatments have been statistically significant to reduce self-reported depression scores in patients with HF who received psychotherapeutic intervention in any of these modalities compared to those patients who only received a treatment. Conclusions: Due to the limited number of studies and different methods of intervention, a standard treatment of HF depression in these care formats is not identified, so more research in this field of study is recommended.

ABSTRACT Introduction: Multidrug-resistant tuberculosis is a significant public health problem for which drugs are used with many adverse effects. Among the devastating consequences of these diseases, there is a wide variation in the incidence of ototoxicity and hearing loss in patients with multidrug-resistant and extremely resistant tuberculosis. Cochlear implants may be indicated in patients with unilateral/severe bilateral hearing loss with no benefit from conventional hearing aids, but their use in patients with tuberculosis is rare. Case report: We present the first case of a right unilateral cochlear implant performed on a 34-year-old Peruvian patient who presented profound sensorineural hearing loss of cochlear origin. Conclusion: Cochlear implant surgery is an essential milestone in the treatment of patients with auditory sequelae of tuberculosis treatment. Close monitoring of possible complications of tuberculosis treatment should be strengthened in countries with a high incidence of multidrug-resistant and extremely resistant tuberculosis.

RESUMEN Introducción: La tuberculosis multidrogorresistente es un importante problema de salud pública para el que se utilizan fármacos con múltiples efectos adversos. Entre las devastadoras consecuencias de estas enfermedades, existe una amplia variación en la incidencia de ototoxicidad y pérdida auditiva en pacientes con tuberculosis multirresistente y extremadamente resistente. Los implantes cocleares pueden estar indicados en pacientes con pérdida auditiva unilateral/bilateral severa sin beneficio de los audífonos convencionales, pero su uso en pacientes con tuberculosis es raro. Reporte de un caso: Presentamos el primer caso de implante coclear unilateral derecho realizado a un paciente peruano de 34 años que presentaba hipoacusia neurosensorial profunda de origen coclear. Conclusión: La cirugía de implante coclear es un hito fundamental en el tratamiento de los pacientes con secuelas auditivas del tratamiento de la tuberculosis. Se debe fortalecer la vigilancia estrecha de las posibles complicaciones del tratamiento de la tuberculosis en los países con una alta incidencia de tuberculosis multirresistente y extremadamente resistente.

The genus Chamaecrista comprises more than 330 species, with only a few studies on their chemical composition and biologic activities. In this study, the phytochemical profile of leaf, stems, and fruits extracts of the C. duckeana were examined by UPLC ESI HRMS analysis to determine possibly bioactive constituents. The antioxidant activity was carried out through in vitro assay, by the sequestration of the free radical DPPH. To evaluate the cytotoxic activity of the extracts, an MTT assay was used and the IC50 was determined against HL60 and RAJI cell lines. The metabolic profiles of the botanical parts are dominated by flavonoid class, highlighting isoflavonoids such as daidzin and ononin. All these compounds are reported for the first time in C. duckeana. The extracts presented antioxidant potential, and the activity of the stems extract was higher than the standard butylated hydroxytoluene. In the cytotoxic assay, only HL60 line (leukemia) had growth inhibition over 80%. The stems presented more expressive cytotoxicity with IC50 of 137.3 (104.6-180.1) and 106.8 (96.52-118.3) μmol. L-1 for HL60 and RAJI, respectively. In conclusion, the present work provides an in-depth knowledge about the chemical profile of C. duckeana, a species rich in bioactive secondary metabolites with cytotoxic activity.

This work describes the synthesis of new 1,3-benzoxathiol-2-one sulfonamides and evaluation of their ability to inhibit some in vitro (coagulant, proteolytic and hemolytic) and in vivo (hemorrhagic, edematogenic and lethality) toxic activities of Bothrops jararaca and Bothrops jararacussu venoms. Compounds have been synthesized from the coupling of intermediate 5-amino-6 methoxybenzo[d][1,3]oxathiol-2-one 4 with benzenesulfonyl chlorides. Characterization of the products was achieved by nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and electrospray ionization mass spectra (ESI-MS) techniques. Biological assay results have shown that most of compounds inhibited the main toxic activities of the venom of the two snake species. Compound 5b (N-(6 methoxy-2 oxobenzo[d][1,3]oxathiol-5-yl)-4-nitrobenzenesulfonamide) was the most efficient in inhibiting hemolysis of B. jararaca, and coagulation and proteolysis induced by both venoms. For in vivo activities, all compounds inhibited the edema, from 35 to 72%, and most of them exhibited antihemorrhagic and antilethality activities. Thus, the results pointed to the biological potential of these compounds, being promising molecules to treat envenomation by these snakes as well as to aid the current antivenom serum therapy.

ABSTRACT Some studies have shown that secondary infections during the COVID-19 pandemic may have contributed to the high mortality. Our objective was to identify the frequency, types and etiology of bacterial infections in patients with COVID-19 admitted to an intensive care unit (ICU) and to evaluate the results of ICU stay, duration of mechanical ventilation (MV) and in-hospital mortality. It was a single-center study with a retrospective cohort of patients admitted consecutively to the ICU for more than 48 h between March and May 2020. Comparisons of groups with and without ICU- acquired infection were performed. A total of 191 patients with laboratory-confirmed COVID-19 were included and 57 patients had 97 secondary infectious events. The most frequent agents were Acinetobacter baumannii (28.9%), Pseudomonas aeruginosa (22.7%) and Klebsiella pneumoniae (14.4%); multi-drug resistance was present in 96% of A. baumannii and in 57% of K. pneumoniae. The most prevalent infection was ventilator-associated pneumonia in 57.9% of patients with bacterial infections, or 17.3% of all COVID-19 patients admitted to the ICU, followed by tracheobronchitis (26.3%). Patients with secondary infections had a longer ICU stay (40.0 vs. 17 days; p < 0.001), as well as a longer duration of MV (24.0 vs 9.0 days; p= 0.003). There were 68 (35.6%) deaths overall, of which 27 (39.7%) patients had bacterial infections. Among the 123 survivors, 30 (24.4%) had a secondary infections (OR 2.041; 95% CI 1.080 - 3.859). A high incidence of secondary infections, mainly caused by gram-negative bacteria has been observed. Secondary infections were associated with longer ICU stay, MV use and higher mortality.

Resumo O parasitismo em Colossoma macropomum é particularmente preocupante porque é a espécie de peixe nativa mais cultivada no Brasil, no entanto a fauna parasitária dessa espécie no estado do Acre é pouco estudada. Assim, foi avaliada a fauna parasitária de C. macropomum cultivado no município de Rio Branco, no sudoeste da Amazônia. Foram encontradas quatro espécies de monogeneas nos 122 peixes examinados: Anacanthorus spathulatus, Linguadactyloides brinkmanni, Notozothecium janauachensis e Mymarothecium boegeri. As espécies mais prevalentes foram A. spathulatus (50%), seguido de N. janauachensis (44,3%), M. boegeri (20,5%) e L. brinkmanni (9,0%). Esses resultados são os primeiros dados sobre os índices ecológicos dos parasitos monogenéticos em tambaqui no estado do Acre e serão úteis para futuras comparações da influência dos fatores ambientais na relação parasito-hospedeiro.

Abstract Parasitism of Colossoma macropomum is of particular concern because it is the most commonly farmed native fish species in Brazil. Nevertheless, the parasitic fauna of this species in the state of Acre has been little studied. For this reason, an evaluation was made of the parasitic fauna of farmed C. macropomum in the municipality of Rio Branco in southwestern Amazon. Four monogenean species were found in the 122 fish examined: Anacanthorus spathulatus, Linguadactyloides brinkmanni, Notozothecium janauachensis and Mymarothecium boegeri. The most prevalent species was A. spathulatus (50%), followed by N. janauachensis (44.3%), M. boegeri (20.5%) and L. brinkmanni (9.0%). These results are the first data on the ecological indices of monogeneans in tambaqui in the state of Acre and will be useful for future comparisons of the influence of environmental factors on the parasite-host relationship.
