    O objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar a perda de solo de área de nascentes da Microbacia do Córrego do Tijuco, SP. Foi utilizada a análise espacial dos fatores da equação universal da perda de solo (EUPS), em integração com análise de componentes principais e geoestatística. A perda de solo média, estimada para a área, foi de 118,5 Mg ha‑1 por ano, considerada alta. Próximo à zona urbana, houve alta interação dos fatores erosividade da chuva e práticas conservacionistas, o que evidencia grande perda de solo, em razão da concentração da água proveniente da camada impermeabilizada urbana, com alta velocidade de escoamento. Nos divisores de águas, a atuação da erodibilidade foi proeminente, em contraste com o fator topográfico. Foram observadas áreas com atuação conjunta destes fatores, inclusive em locais de inclinação suave, porém com alto potencial natural de erosão. A interação das análises multivariadas e geoestatística permite a estratificação da área, identifica locais com propriedades específicas quanto à perda de solo, e espacializa os fatores do processo erosivo e suas interações ao longo do relevo.The objective of this work was to evaluate the soil loss of an area of springs in the Microbacia do Córrego do Tijuco, SP, Brazil. Spatial analysis of the universal soil loss equation (USLE) factors, in integrated with principal component analysis and geostatistics, was used. The average soil loss estimated for the area was 118.5 Mg ha‑1 per year, which is considered high. Near the urban zone, there was a high interaction of rainfall erosivity and conservation practices, which shows a high‑soil loss, due to the concentration of water from impervious urban layer with a high‑flow velocity. In the water partings, the performance of erodibility was prominent, in contrast to the topographic factor. Areas were observed with joint action of these factors, including sites with gentle slope, but with a high, natural potential of erosion. The interaction of multivariate and geostatistic analyses allows the area stratification, identifies locations with specific properties as to soil loss, and spatialises the erosion factors and their interactions along the landscape

    O fator topográfico representa a influência do comprimento de rampa e da declividade na intensidade de erosão hídrica em um solo. O presente trabalho tem como objetivo testar o uso Sistema de Informação Geográfica (SIG) na determinação do fator topográfico (LS) da equação universal de perdas de solo, EUPS. A área de estudo ocupa 8007,4 ha, apresenta relevo suave ondulado formado por duas classes de solos (Latossolo Vermelho e Argissolo Vermelho Amarelo). A análise dos dados foi realizada por meio do sistema de informação geográfica, no cálculo do fator topográfico. Os resultados obtidos mostraram a predominância de áreas com valores baixos a moderados para o fator topográfico. Apesar de a microbacia apresentar um relevo predominantemente suave ondulado a ondulado, o fator (LS) exerceu uma influência importante no processo erosivo principalmente à montante da microbacia onde o relevo é mais ondulado. Em contra partida, encontrou-se altos valores do comprimento de rampa (L) a jusante da microbacia, mostrando maiores valores do fator topográfico nestas áreas

    Effect of light curing unit on resin-modified glass-ionomer cements: a microhardness assessment

    OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the microhardness of resin-modified glass-ionomer cements (RMGICs) photoactivated with a blue light-emitting diode (LED) curing light. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Thirty specimens were distributed in 3 groups: Fuji II LC Improved/GC (RM1), Vitremer/3M ESPE (RM2) and Filtek Z250/ 3M ESPE (RM3). Two commercial light-curing units were used to polymerize the materials: LED/Ultrablue IS and a halogen light/XL3000 (QTH). After 24 h, Knoop microhardness test was performed. Data were submitted to three-way ANOVA and Tukey's test at a pre-set alpha of 0.05. RESULTS: At the top surface, no statistically significant difference (p>0.05) in the microhardness was seen when the LED and QTH lights were used for all materials. At the bottom surface, microhardness mean value of RM2 was significantly higher when the QTH light was used (p<0.05). For RM1, statistically significant higher values (p<0.05) were seen when the LED light was used. No statistically significant difference (p>0.05) was seen at the bottom surface for RM3, irrespective of the light used. Top-to-bottom surface comparison showed no statistically significant difference (p>0.05) for both RMGICs, regardless of the light used. For RM3, microhardness mean value at the top was significantly higher (p<0.05) than bottom microhardness when both curing units were used. CONCLUSION: The microhardness values seen when a LED light was used varied depending on the restorative material tested

    Decreased fertility in poor responder women is not related to oocyte morphological status

    Introduction: In women showing impaired fertility, a decreased response to ovarian stimulation is a major problem, limiting the number of oocytes to be used for assisted reproduction techniques (ART). Despite the several definitions of poor response, it is still a matter of debate whether young poor responder patients also show a decrease in oocyte quality. The objective in this study was to investigate whether poor ovarian response to the superstimulation protocol is accompanied by impaired oocyte quality. Material and methods: This study included 313 patients younger than 35 years old, undergoing intracytoplasmic sperm injection. Patients with four or fewer MII oocytes (poor-responder group, PR, n = 57) were age-matched with normoresponder patients (NR, n = 256). Results: A higher rate of oocyte retrieval and a trend towards an increase in MII oocyte rate were observed in the NR group when compared to the PR group (71.6 +/- 1.1% and 74.1 +/- 1.0% vs. 56.3 +/- 2.9% and 66.5 +/- 3.7%; p < 0.0001 and p = 0.056, respectively). A trend toward increased implantation rates was observed in the NR group when compared to the PR group (44 and 24.5 +/- 2.0% vs. 28.8 and 16.4 +/- 3.9%; p = 0.0305 and p = 0.0651, respectively). Conclusions: Low response to ovarian stimulation is apparently not related to impaired oocyte quality. However, embryos produced from poor responder oocytes show impaired capacity to implant and to carry a pregnancy to term

    Objective: To discuss the requirement from the National Health Surveillance Agency(ANVISA), for assisted reproduction treatment patients to undergo laboratory tests for ZIKV detection, and if the public health authorities and government leaders' recommendations to women simply avoid pregnancy is prudent. Methods: This study was performed in a universityaffiliated in vitro fertilization center in Brazil. We present a critical discussion on the risk of microcephaly due to ZIKV infection and the prevalence of other harmful pathogens to vulnerable pregnant women and infants. We assessed, 954 patients undergoing intracytoplasmic sperm injection cycles(ICSI), between April and November of 2016, concerning the results of ZIKV test, according to different regions in Brazil. Results: Patients undergoing ICSI cycles were split into groups, according to their region of origin: 28(3.0%) were from the North, 27(2.8%) were from the Northeast, 40(4.2%) were from the Midwest, 830(87.2%) were from the Southeast, and 29(3.0%) were from the South. Concerning the diagnosis, 112 samples had a positive or inconclusive result for ZIKV, by chromatography immunoassay. These samples were re-analyzed by ELISA and no result was positive. All positive results were from the Southeast region and none from the Northeast or Midwest regions, which are considered endemic regions. Conclusion: ZIKV test before the onset of assisted reproduction treatments does not rule out the risk of the infection during pregnancy. In addition, although ZIKV infection risk is extremely high, the microcephaly risk due to ZIKV is not higher than the risk of miscarriage and birth defects due to other recognized pathogens.Fertil Med Grp, Sao Paulo, SP, BrazilCtr Estudos & Pesquisa Reprod Humana Assistida, Inst Sapientiae, Sao Paulo, SP, BrazilUniv Fed Sao Paulo UNIFESP, Dept Cirurgia, Area Reprod Humana, Disciplina Urol, Sao Paulo, BrazilUniv Fed Sao Paulo UNIFESP, Dept Cirurgia, Area Reprod Humana, Disciplina Urol, Sao Paulo, BrazilWeb of Scienc

    Objetivo: descrever o itinerário terapêutico de crianças/adolescentes com câncer e suas famílias. Método: estudo descritivo qualitativo realizado com 11 mães e uma avó de crianças/adolescentes em tratamento de câncer, guiado pelo referencial teórico do Modelo de Sistemas de Cuidados à Saúde. Os dados foram coletados no período de março a setembro de 2019, por meio de entrevistas semiestruturadas e audiogravadas, submetidas à análise de conteúdo de Morse e Field. Resultados: para a família, o caminho percorrido durante todo o processo de busca pelo diagnóstico e pela cura se configurou em sofrimento e sentimentos ambíguos. Ao longo do itinerário terapêutico, cada família estabeleceu seu modo de agir, perceber, se comunicar, de se relacionar e tomar decisões. Considerações finais: conhecer o itinerário terapêutico de famílias de crianças/adolescentes com câncer pode nortear intervenções de enfermagem assertivas e subsidiar a elaboração de estratégias que aprimorem o diagnóstico precoce da doença, favorecendo o melhor prognóstico.
