Fitoquímica de duas espécies do gênero Jatropha.

O gênero Jatropha L. é constituído por 175 espécies tropicais e subtropicais está inserido na família Euphorbiaceae, onde muitas espécies apresentam grande potencial químico e biológico por serem ricas em estruturas químicas e com atividades biológicas e farmacêuticas. O trabalho teve como objetivo a análise fitoquímica de folhas de Jatropha gossypifolia L. e Jatropha curcas L. e comparação entre as mesmas, ambas cultivadas na coleção do Horto de Plantas Medicinais da Embrapa Amazônia Oriental. As avaliações fitoquímicas visando à identificação das substâncias químicas presentes nas espécies tais como: Ácidos orgânicos, Açúcares redutores, Alcalóides, Antraquinonas, Azulenos, Carotenóides, Catequinas, Depsídeos e Depsidonas, Derivados de benzoquinas, Derivados da cumarina, Esteróides e triterpenóides, Flavonóides, Glicosídeos, Polissacarídeos, Proteínas e Aminoácidos, Purinas, Saponina Espumídica e Taninos. Os resultados demonstraram que dos 18 elementos analisados nas espécies, desses, 10 elementos foram diagnosticados em ambas às espécies

Brazil in the Era of Fascism: The “New State” of Getúlio Vargas

The New State established in Brazil by Getúlio Vargas (1937–1945) is the most important case of the institutionalisation of a dictatorship of the fascism era in Latin America. During this time, an impressive spectrum of authoritarian regimes was established, some of which were very instable and poorly institutionalised, while others were more consolidated. Roger Griffin coined the concept of para-fascism for some of them, and the “New State” of Getúlio Vargas in Brazil is a paradigmatic case. In this essay, we analyse the processes of institutional reform in 1930s Brazil paying particular attention to how domestic political actors look at institutional models of fascism and corporatism.info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersio

Intervencoes Psicossociais para Promocao da Saude do Homen em Unidade de Saude da Familia = Psychosocial interventions to promote Men's Health in Family Health Centers = Intervenciones Psicosociales para la Promocion de la Salud del Hombre en Centros de Salud de la Familia

This study on professional experience aims to contribute insights to answer the question, how can we promote men's health in Primary Health Care (PHC)? We describe two health interventions implemented in a Family Health Center, FHC (Brazilian PHC main facility), in Vitória, Brazil: the "Saturday Health Actions" and the "Group of Men." Each "Saturday Health Action" occurs every three months on a Saturday morning, lasts for four hours, and includes recreational activities and health education sessions (for example, discussions about sexually transmitted diseases). The "Group of Men" occurs weekly, lasts only for 1 h 15 min, and includes health education sessions (for example, discussions about alcohol problems) and psychotherapeutic workshops. Between September 2011 and July 2013, the interventions approached around 230 men from lower social classes. The concepts of comprehensive clinic and psychotherapeutic attitude are used to encourage the subjective expression of participants and their co-responsibility with the health-sickness process. Among the results, we highlight the increase in the participation of male patients in the FHC, the improvement of care delivered to chronic conditions (especially hypertension, diabetes, and alcohol problems/alcoholism), and the strengthening of harm reduction behaviors. We conclude that the interventions reported are useful in dealing with challenges related to Men's Health
