    This paper has the purpose of discussing obesity and excess weight in adolescence resulting from research carried out in a public university program focused on this group. As a result of this research the importance of family and school in the process of slimming down can be emphasized, as much through spheres of support, as through challenging life experiences, especially for adolescent girls: the coexistence of support and family control in the process of weight loss; the girls’ explanation of feelings of shame and failure in the face of their inability to follow dietary rules; the difficulties in meeting goals proposed by the support program on obesity in adolescence and its articulation with the socio-cultural context that circumscribes the practices

    The diversity and abundance of ammonia oxidizing bacteria (AOB) and Archaea (AOA) were investigated in five oil refinery wastewater treatment plants in the UK using culture-independent molecular techniques. The AOB found in the plants were phylogenetically associated with the Nitrosomonas oligotropha and Nitrosomonas marina lineages and clones related to the Nitrosomonas oligotropha lineage may represent novel AOB species. Putative AOA were found in a trickling filter system and in two activated sludge systems and were phylogenetically placed within marine group 1.1a and terrestrial group 1.1b, Crenarchaeota. Evidence suggests that these are most closely related to AOA from other wastewater treatment systems. Only three of the refinery wastewater treatment plants were nitrifying. AOB numbers quantified through real-time PCR of amoA ranged from 1.54 x 105 cells/mL to 9.49 x 105 cells/mL in the trickling filter system. In contrast, AOB numbers in one of the activated sludge systems ranged from 1.24 x 104 cells/mL to 1.68 x 106 cells/mL, while in the other, AOB numbers ranged from 7.14 x 103 cells/mL to 9.56 x 104 cells/mL, despite showing good nitrification. Conversely, AOA were detected in the trickling filter system at 1.54 x 107 cells/mL. In the activated sludge systems AOA were more abundant than AOB. In the activated sludge system with the higher AOB numbers, AOA abundance ranged from 4.32 x 106 cells/mL to 1.77 x 108 cells/mL, and in the activated sludge system with the lower AOB numbers, AOA abundance ranged from 6.15 x 106 cells/mL to 2.69 x 108 cells/mL. The high abundance of AOA in the nitrifying refinery wastewater treatment systems suggested that AOA may play an important role in nitrification in these reactors. However microautoradiography coupled with CARD-FISH (conducted by Dr Marc Muβmann, University of Vienna) indicated that the AOA were not chemoautotrophic ammonia-oxidizers. Assessment of AOA and AOB abundance in relation to ammonia removal in the treatment plants indicated that ammonia removal was consistent with the AOB numbers detected and thus, AOB are probably responsible for most of the nitrification observed and the overall contribution of putative AOA to nitrification in these wastewater treatment plants appears to be relatively minor.

    p14 expression differences in ovarian benign, borderline and malignant epithelial tumors

    Get PDF
    Background: Abnormalities in tumor suppressors p14, p16 and p53 are reported in several human cancers. In ovarian epithelial carcinogenesis, p16 and p53 show higher immunohistochemical staining frequencies in malignant tumors and are associated with poor prognoses. p14 was only analyzed in carcinomas, with conflicting results. There are no reports on its expression in benign and borderline tumors. This study aims to determine p14, p16 and p53 expression frequencies in ovarian benign, borderline and malignant tumors and their associations with clinical parameters. Methods: A cross-sectional study utilizing immunohistochemistry was performed on paraffin-embedded ovarian epithelial tumor samples. Clinical data were collected from medical records. Fisher’s exact test and the Bonferroni correction were performed for frequency associations. Survival comparisons utilized Kaplan-Meier and log rank testing. Associations were considered significant when p < 0.05. Results: p14 absent expression was associated with malignant tumors (60 % positive) (p = 0.000), while 93 % and 94 % of benign and borderline tumors, respectively, were positive. p16 was positive in 94.6 % of carcinomas, 75 % of borderline and 45.7 % of benign tumors (p = 0.000). p53 negative staining was associated with benign tumors (2.9 % positive) (p = 0.016) but no difference was observed between borderline (16.7 %) and malignant tumors (29.7 %) (p = 0.560). No associations were found between expression rates, disease-free survival times or clinical variables. Carcinoma subtypes showed no difference in expression. Conclusions: This is the first description of p14 expression in benign and borderline tumors. It remains stable in benign and borderline tumors, while carcinomas show a significant absence of staining. This may indicate that p14 abnormalities occur later in carcinogenesis. p16 and p53 frequencies increase from benign to borderline and malignant tumors, similarly to previous reports, possibly reflecting the accumulation of inactive mutant protein. The small sample size may have prevented statistically significant survival analyses and clinical correlations. Future studies should investigate genetic abnormalities in p14 coding sequences and include all types of ovarian epithelial tumors. Bigger sample sizes may be needed for significant associations

    Obscena em cena: gestualidade, gênero, sexualidade e transprogramação na performance "Maminha"

    Ivana Chastinet faleceu no dia 8 de agosto de 2017 em decorrência de uma metástase causada por um câncer que começou nos seios e quase percorreu todo o seu corpo. O corpo foi a base de seus trabalhos criativos e seu próprio objeto de pesquisa. O câncer que lhe tirou a vida foi estímulo para ela continuar resistindo em finalizar sua pesquisa de Mestrado, intitulada “Obscena em cena: gestualidade, gênero, sexualidade e transprogramação na performance ‘Maminha’”, junto ao Programa de Pós Graduação em Artes Cênicas, da Universidade Federal da Bahia, sob a orientação da Professora Doutora Suzana Martins e com bolsa de estudos da Capes. Mas, quis o corpo, a matéria, que Ivana parasse por ali o que havia dado início. Um início consistente e que pode servir de base para futuras pesquisas e desdobramentos outros. Mas, era também seu desejo que o pouco que ela deixou escrito fosse disponibilizado e compartilhado para que, de alguma forma, ela continuasse reverberando entre nós e no campo da pesquisa, como uma possibilidade de se fazer viva; como uma prestação de contas a toda colaboração, toda companhia que ela teve durante todo esse tempo. Assim, o que é publicado aqui é uma homenagem da revista Repertório a essa artista-ativista que tanto nos ensinou. O texto foi organizado por Marcelo Sousa Brito, seu amigo pessoal, a partir de um arquivo deixado por ela. Resolvemos publicar assim, como se fosse uma mini dissertação, incluindo os agradecimentos e valorizando questões e conceitos levantados por Chastinet como corpo cênico e transprogramação, a partir de uma prática criativa – a performance “Maminha” – e de suas inquietações sobre temas ligados a gênero e sexualidade como códigos geradores de gestos obscenos, antes, durante e depois da cena. A revista Repertório rende, com a publicação desse texto, uma homenagem a essa artista-ativista, que lutou até o último segundo para se manter viva nos campos da arte e do ativismo e que, para nós, estará sempre abrindo caminhos

    We tested whether hypertension favors the development of additional cardiometabolic changes in fructose-fed ovariectomized rats and how it affects aerobic exercise training (ET) effects. All rats received fructose in drinking water (10%) beginning at weaning, were ovariectomized at 10 weeks of age and divided into the normotensive sedentary (NFOS) and trained (NFOT) and hypertensive sedentary (HFOS) and trained (HFOT) groups. ET was performed on a treadmill. Arterial pressure (AP) was directly recorded; heart rate and AP variabilities were analyzed. Lipoperoxidation (LPO) and antioxidant enzyme levels were measured in the left ventricle. In addition to increased AP levels, when compared with the NFOS group, the hypertensive groups had resting tachycardia, a reduction of 29% in the pulse interval variance (VAR-PI), 19% in RMSSD (root mean square of successive differences, a cardiac parasympathetic index) and 53% in the α-index (spontaneous baroreflex), while the systolic AP variance (VAR-SAP) and its low-frequency band (LF-SAP) were sharply increased. ET did not alter AP levels. Even in the presence of hypertension, ET induced resting bradycardia, decreases of 33% in VAR-SAP and 49% in LF-SAP, and an increase of more than 60% in VAR-PI and the α-index. However, some of these parameters were still impaired relative to those of normotensive rats. LPO was reduced and catalase was increased in both trained groups, with no difference between the normotensive and hypertensive groups. Negative correlations were obtained between LPO and RMSSD (r=-0.60, P<0.05) and α-index (r=-0.63, P<0.05). In conclusion, hypertension augmented the dysfunctions in fructose-fed ovariectomized rats and attenuated metabolic aerobic ET benefits. These changes may be related to cardiovascular autonomic and oxidative stress alterations.Fil: De Brito Monzani, Janaina O.. Universidade Federal do Maranhao; BrasilFil: Sanches, Iris Callado.
