Estudos sobre a nutrição mineral do sorgo granífero: V. efeitos das deficiências de micronutrientes (nota)

Grain sorghum var. TEY-101 was grown in nutrient solution in the presence and in the absence of micronutrients. Symptoms of deficieny of all micronutrients were obtained. Growth, as measured by dry matter production was affected by the treatments in the folowing decreasing, order: minus Fe, minus Zn, minus Mn, minus B, minus Mo and minus Cu. An additional treatment in which excess Mn was used revealed a relative tolerance of the variety to high levels of this element. The results of chemical analyses of the leaves suggest that the following contents (in ppm) of micronutrients are associated with the respective deficiencies: B - 20 to 40, Cu - 8 to 10, Fe - 198, Mn - 32 to 35, Mo - 0.5, Zn - 46 to 52; in the case of Fe the Fe/Mn relationship seems to give a better indication of the nutritional status than the content of the element per se, being igual to 1.7 in the healthy plants, and 0.6 in the iron deficient ones.O sorgo granífero, var. TEY 101, foi cultivado em solução nutritiva na presença e ausência de micronutrientes. Foram obtidos sintomas de carência e foi feita a determinação dos teores desses elementos nas folhas

Estudos sobre a nutrição mineral do sorgo granífero: VII absorção de sulfato marcado por raizes destacadas

Some aspects of SO4² absorption by excised roots of "Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench" namely, inibition effects of NaF, KCN, 2,4- DNP and factors such as aeration, solution pH and temperature on the rate of absorption were studied. The excised roots showed multiphasic mecanism of SO4²- absorption. The relative absorption rates, presented by three varieties, were in decreasing order: Tey-101, Contibrasil-101 and Dekalb-E-57. Inhibition effects on the absorption of SO4²- by excised roots were shown in the case of the three ihibitors studied hereof-. Aeration and solution temperature are important factors on SO4²- absorption. At the external solutio n concentration of Na,2SO(4)10-³M the best fitted equation to the experimental values was shown to be: umoles/g dry matter = 1,639- 1,585 exp. (-0,006618t)Um estudo da absorção de sulfato por raizes destacadas de sorgo granífero mostrou: mecanismo (ou sítios) múltiplo para absorção; o tamanho do espaço livre aparente; a influência da temperatura, pH; a dependência da atividade metabólica

Adubação nitrogenada e irrigação no maracujazeiro-amarelo. I. Produtividade e qualidade dos frutos Nitrogen fertilization and irrigation depths in yellow passionfruit. I. Yield and fruit quality

Conduziu-se um experimento em Campos dos Goytacazes, RJ, no período de dezembro de 1995 a junho de 1997, para avaliar o efeito da adubação nitrogenada, sob diferentes lâminas de irrigação, na produtividade e na qualidade dos frutos do maracujazeiro-amarelo. Testaram-se quatro doses de nitrogênio (50, 250, 450 e 650 g planta-1 ano-1 de N), utilizando a uréia como fonte de N, sob seis lâminas de irrigação (0, 25, 50, 75, 100 e 125% da ET0 - evapotranspiração de referência), num esquema fatorial 4 x 6, com três repetições. Utilizou-se um sistema de irrigação por gotejamento. Não houve variação na produtividade quando o N foi aplicado sob lâminas de irrigação de 0, 25, 100 e 125% da ET0. A produtividade máxima de frutos, 41,3 t ha-1, foi obtida quando se aplicaram 290 g planta-1 ano-1 de N, sob uma lâmina de irrigação de 75% da ET0, o que correspondeu a uma lâmina total de água (irrigação + precipitação efetiva) de 1.293 mm. A adubação nitrogenada influenciou o número de frutos e não apresentou influência sobre o peso médio e outras características qualitativas dos frutos. A irrigação influenciou a produtividade, o peso médio, o comprimento e o diâmetro dos frutos.<br>A field experiment was carried out, in Campos dos Goytacazes, RJ, Brazil, from December, 1995 to June, 1997, to evaluate the effect of nitrogen fertilization, under different irrigation depths, on yield and fruit quality of yellow passionfruit. Four nitrogen levels (50, 250, 450 and 650 g plant-1 year-1 of N) were tested, using urea as the source of N, under six irrigation depths (0, 25, 50, 75, 100 and 125% of ET0 - reference crop evapotranspiration for grass), at 4 x 6 factorial scheme with three replications. A dripping irrigation system was used. There was no yield response due to increasing nitrogen levels when 0, 25, 100 and 125% of ET0 were applied. Maximum fruit yield (41.3 ton ha-1) was obtained when 290 g plant-1 year-1 of N was applied under an irrigation depth close to 75% of ET0, which corresponded to a total of 1,293 mm of applied water (irrigation + effective rainfall). Nitrogen fertilization influenced the number of fruit and did not show any effect on either average weight or other fruit qualitative characteristics. Irrigation depth had great influence on fruit yield, average weight, length and diameter

Death in hospital following ICU discharge : insights from the LUNG SAFE study

Altres ajuts: Italian Ministry of University and Research (MIUR)-Department of Excellence project PREMIA (PREcision MedIcine Approach: bringing biomarker research to clinic); Science Foundation Ireland Future Research Leaders Award; European Society of Intensive Care Medicine (ESICM), Brussels; St Michael's Hospital, Toronto; University of Milan-Bicocca, Monza, Italy.Background: To determine the frequency of, and factors associated with, death in hospital following ICU discharge to the ward. Methods: The Large observational study to UNderstand the Global impact of Severe Acute respiratory FailurE study was an international, multicenter, prospective cohort study of patients with severe respiratory failure, conducted across 459 ICUs from 50 countries globally. This study aimed to understand the frequency and factors associated with death in hospital in patients who survived their ICU stay. We examined outcomes in the subpopulation discharged with no limitations of life sustaining treatments ('treatment limitations'), and the subpopulations with treatment limitations. Results: 2186 (94%) patients with no treatment limitations discharged from ICU survived, while 142 (6%) died in hospital. 118 (61%) of patients with treatment limitations survived while 77 (39%) patients died in hospital. Patients without treatment limitations that died in hospital after ICU discharge were older, more likely to have COPD, immunocompromise or chronic renal failure, less likely to have trauma as a risk factor for ARDS. Patients that died post ICU discharge were less likely to receive neuromuscular blockade, or to receive any adjunctive measure, and had a higher pre- ICU discharge non-pulmonary SOFA score. A similar pattern was seen in patients with treatment limitations that died in hospital following ICU discharge. Conclusions: A significant proportion of patients die in hospital following discharge from ICU, with higher mortality in patients with limitations of life-sustaining treatments in place. Non-survivors had higher systemic illness severity scores at ICU discharge than survivors. Trial Registration: ClinicalTrials.gov NCT02010073
