ASPECTOS RELACIONADOS À PREFERÊNCIA DA GESTANTE PELA VIA DE PARTO
This is a qualitative descriptive research with the purpose of understanding the aspects related to the kind of delivery pregnant women living in the city of Rondonópolis-MT preferred. To collect data, we used semistructured interviews, which were later submitted to thematic content analysis. Of the sixteen participants, thirteen had Caesareans and just three underwent vaginal delivery in the last pregnancy, however, ten of them said that they wanted a normal delivery in early pregnancy and only six showed their preference for a Caesarean since early pregnancy. The choice for a Caesarean section in late pregnancy was not necessarily related to medical indication. The most prevalent aspects related to the preference for the kind of delivery were: the experience of previous delivery, which interfered with the decision of subsequent deliveries; the lack of information during prenatal care, which led to the search for information on unreliable sources; and fears related to pain and tragic outcomes which strongly influenced on the choice of mode of delivery, causing a great number of Caesareans without clinical indications. It has been observed the importance of professional legal advice during prenatal care in order to reduce the high incidence of unnecessary Caesarean sections and providing women with better and more information on their choice of delivery. Se trata de una pesquisa cualitativa de tipo descriptiva que tuvo como objetivo comprender los aspectos relacionados con la elección del tipo de parto de las mujeres embarazadas en la ciudad de RondonópolisMT. Para la recolección de datos se utilizaron entrevistas semi-estructuradas, que posteriormente fueron sometidas a un análisis de contenido temático. De las dieciséis participantes, trece tuvieron partos quirúrgicos y apenas tres realizaron el parto vaginal en la última gestación, sin embargo diez de ellas afirmaron que deseaban un parto normal en el inicio de la gravidez y apenas seis eligieron la opción de cesárea desde el principio. La elección por la cesárea al final del embarazo no fue necesariamente por una indicación médica. Los aspectos más relevantes relacionados con la elección por la vía del parto fueron: la experiencia del parto anterior, que interfirió en la decisión de los partos subsecuentes, la ausencia de informaciones durante el pre-natal, que motivó la busca de informaciones en fuentes no confiables; y los temores relacionados con el dolor y con resultados trágicos que constituyeron una gran influencia en la elección de la vía del parto, ocasionando un alto índice de paros por cesárea sin indicaciones clínicas. Se observa la importancia de una asistencia profesional cualificada en el prenatal con el objetivo de disminuir la alta incidencia de cesáreas innecesarias y proporcionar a las mujeres una elección informada sobre la vía del parto.Trata-se de uma pesquisa qualitativa, do tipo descritiva, que objetivou compreender os aspectos relacionados à preferência pela via de parto de gestantes residentes no município de Rondonópolis-MT.

Characterisation of microbial attack on archaeological bone
As part of an EU funded project to investigate the factors influencing bone preservation in the archaeological record, more than 250 bones from 41 archaeological sites in five countries spanning four climatic regions were studied for diagenetic alteration. Sites were selected to cover a range of environmental conditions and archaeological contexts. Microscopic and physical (mercury intrusion porosimetry) analyses of these bones revealed that the majority (68%) had suffered microbial attack. Furthermore, significant differences were found between animal and human bone in both the state of preservation and the type of microbial attack present. These differences in preservation might result from differences in early taphonomy of the bones. © 2003 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved
Brazilian Flora 2020: Leveraging the power of a collaborative scientific network
International audienceThe shortage of reliable primary taxonomic data limits the description of biological taxa and the understanding of biodiversity patterns and processes, complicating biogeographical, ecological, and evolutionary studies. This deficit creates a significant taxonomic impediment to biodiversity research and conservation planning. The taxonomic impediment and the biodiversity crisis are widely recognized, highlighting the urgent need for reliable taxonomic data. Over the past decade, numerous countries worldwide have devoted considerable effort to Target 1 of the Global Strategy for Plant Conservation (GSPC), which called for the preparation of a working list of all known plant species by 2010 and an online world Flora by 2020. Brazil is a megadiverse country, home to more of the world's known plant species than any other country. Despite that, Flora Brasiliensis, concluded in 1906, was the last comprehensive treatment of the Brazilian flora. The lack of accurate estimates of the number of species of algae, fungi, and plants occurring in Brazil contributes to the prevailing taxonomic impediment and delays progress towards the GSPC targets. Over the past 12 years, a legion of taxonomists motivated to meet Target 1 of the GSPC, worked together to gather and integrate knowledge on the algal, plant, and fungal diversity of Brazil. Overall, a team of about 980 taxonomists joined efforts in a highly collaborative project that used cybertaxonomy to prepare an updated Flora of Brazil, showing the power of scientific collaboration to reach ambitious goals. This paper presents an overview of the Brazilian Flora 2020 and provides taxonomic and spatial updates on the algae, fungi, and plants found in one of the world's most biodiverse countries. We further identify collection gaps and summarize future goals that extend beyond 2020. Our results show that Brazil is home to 46,975 native species of algae, fungi, and plants, of which 19,669 are endemic to the country. The data compiled to date suggests that the Atlantic Rainforest might be the most diverse Brazilian domain for all plant groups except gymnosperms, which are most diverse in the Amazon. However, scientific knowledge of Brazilian diversity is still unequally distributed, with the Atlantic Rainforest and the Cerrado being the most intensively sampled and studied biomes in the country. In times of “scientific reductionism”, with botanical and mycological sciences suffering pervasive depreciation in recent decades, the first online Flora of Brazil 2020 significantly enhanced the quality and quantity of taxonomic data available for algae, fungi, and plants from Brazil. This project also made all the information freely available online, providing a firm foundation for future research and for the management, conservation, and sustainable use of the Brazilian funga and flora
NEOTROPICAL XENARTHRANS: a data set of occurrence of xenarthran species in the Neotropics
Xenarthrans—anteaters, sloths, and armadillos—have essential functions for ecosystem maintenance, such as insect control and nutrient cycling, playing key roles as ecosystem engineers. Because of habitat loss and fragmentation, hunting pressure, and conflicts with domestic dogs, these species have been threatened locally, regionally, or even across their full distribution ranges. The Neotropics harbor 21 species of armadillos, 10 anteaters, and 6 sloths. Our data set includes the families Chlamyphoridae (13), Dasypodidae (7), Myrmecophagidae (3), Bradypodidae (4), and Megalonychidae (2). We have no occurrence data on Dasypus pilosus (Dasypodidae). Regarding Cyclopedidae, until recently, only one species was recognized, but new genetic studies have revealed that the group is represented by seven species. In this data paper, we compiled a total of 42,528 records of 31 species, represented by occurrence and quantitative data, totaling 24,847 unique georeferenced records. The geographic range is from the southern United States, Mexico, and Caribbean countries at the northern portion of the Neotropics, to the austral distribution in Argentina, Paraguay, Chile, and Uruguay. Regarding anteaters, Myrmecophaga tridactyla has the most records (n = 5,941), and Cyclopes sp. have the fewest (n = 240). The armadillo species with the most data is Dasypus novemcinctus (n = 11,588), and the fewest data are recorded for Calyptophractus retusus (n = 33). With regard to sloth species, Bradypus variegatus has the most records (n = 962), and Bradypus pygmaeus has the fewest (n = 12). Our main objective with Neotropical Xenarthrans is to make occurrence and quantitative data available to facilitate more ecological research, particularly if we integrate the xenarthran data with other data sets of Neotropical Series that will become available very soon (i.e., Neotropical Carnivores, Neotropical Invasive Mammals, and Neotropical Hunters and Dogs). Therefore, studies on trophic cascades, hunting pressure, habitat loss, fragmentation effects, species invasion, and climate change effects will be possible with the Neotropical Xenarthrans data set.
