Breeding biology review of White‑backed Stilt Himantopus melanurus in Brazil and a case study in the largest restinga protected area (Aves, Charadriiformes, Recurvirostridae)

In Brazil, the White-backed Stilt Himantopus melanurus is distributed in the midwest, south and southeast but breeding information is scarce. In this study, species breeding information in the country was compiled from online platform (WikiAves, eBird) and literature. A case study describing nests and egg biometry were reported in Restinga of Jurubatiba National Park (RJNP), on the north cost of Rio de Janeiro state, as well potential threats to the species. Sampling was carried out in September and December 2018, monthly in 2019 and between January to March and September to December in 2020. Overall, 70 breeding records were compiled, between 1997 and November 2021, being 64 from WikiAves in all regions of Brazil, four records from eBird in São Paulo state (in 2021) and two records in literature (one from São Paulo state, in 2007 and one from Rio de Janeiro in 2012). In RJNP, 44 nests were identified being 34 active, with an average of 3.5 eggs per nest, and overall 118 eggs were measured. The main materials used to build the nests were the saltmarsh plant and mud. Around 60% of nests were degraded or predated. Predation was the main cause of egg loss. Successful nests (with chicks or hatching signs) represented 26% of the total nests monitored. This study reports the first information on the biometry of the species' eggs and nests, confirming the northern coast of Rio de Janeiro state as a nesting area for the species

Níveis séricos de sódio e potássio em pacientes com Málaria causada pelo Plasmodium vivax em uma unidade de referência para diagnóstico e tratamento da doença

A malária continua sendo, uma das principais doenças infecciosas em todo o mundo. O Plasmodium vivax é a principal espécie causadora de malária no Brasil. O objetivo do presente estudo foi investigar os níveis séricos dos eletrólitos sódio e potássio em pacientes com infecção pelo Plasmodium vivax, bem como sua relação com parâmetros clínicos e laboratoriais de potencial gravidade da doença. Trata-se de um estudo epidemiológico descritivo, sendo avaliadas as concentrações séricas dos eletrólitos sódio e potássio. Foram incluídos 153 pacientes de junho de 2010 a junho de 2016. Neste estudo, a redução dos níveis da concentração média de sódio foi observada no grupo de pacientes que apresentava febre no dia da consulta e temperatura axilar acima de 37.5 °C.No entanto, o mesmo não foi observado em relação ao potássio. Dessa forma, podemos concluir que na malária vivax a concentração sérica de sódio é menor nos pacientes que relatam ter tido febre no dia da consulta e naqueles que apresentam temperatura axilar maior que 37.5 °C. Os níveis séricos de potássio não são diferentes entre os pacientes que apresentaram febre. Sendo assim, o presente estudo ressalta a necessidade do monitoramento dos níveis de sódio nos pacientes com malária aguda causada pelo Plasmodium vivax

The impact of the use of vacuum and calcium lactate on the osmotic dehydration of papaya with isomaltulose solution

Papayas are one of the most consumed fruits in the world. Enriching papayas with isomaltulose and calcium through osmotic dehydration (OD) is a noteworthy strategy for providing these substances to consumers. The present study evaluated the influence of the application of vacuum and the addition of calcium lactate in an osmotic solution of isomaltulose (35%) on the OD of papaya. Papaya cubes with an edge length of 10 mm were immersed in osmotic solutions, with or without calcium lactate, for a total time of 300 min, with or without application of vacuum during the first 20 min, totaling four treatments. The osmotic processes reduced the moisture content (MC) and water activity and caused a change in the color of the papaya. The application of vacuum caused greater shrinkage and color change. Calcium lactate impregnation increased the water loss (WL), weight reduction (WR), hardness, and chroma of the papaya and reduced the solid gain (SG), MC and shrinkage. Therefore, OD proved to be an appealing alternative for the production of papaya predehydrated and enriched with isomaltulose and calcium

A febre de chikungunya é uma arbovirose causada pelo vírus Chikungunya (CHIKV), da família Togaviridae, transmitido pela fêmea dos mosquitos do gênero Aedes, incluindo A. aegypti e A. albopictus. O período de incubação no ser humano pode variar de 1-12 dias. A principal manifestação clínica é a febre de início agudo, acompanhada de artralgia, mialgia, cefaleia, náusea, fadiga e exantema. A maioria dos pacientes apresenta recuperação após a fase aguda da doença, porém podem persistir alguns sintomas por semanas ou meses, principalmente artralgia intensa. Diagnóstico pode ser realizado por método laboratorial ou clínico-epidemiológico. Considerando o amplo espectro clinico e o aumento recente do número de casos da doença, este trabalho objetiva descrever as características clínicoepidemiológicas dos casos suspeitos e/ou confirmados de infecção pelo (CHIKV) no Estado de MT, no período de janeiro de 2016 a maio de 2017. Foram incluídos 1558 casos suspeitos, sendo 1342 casos confirmados e 216 descartados. No ano de 2016 foram investigados 144 casos, sendo 46 confirmados e 98 descartados. Já em 2017 foram investigados 1414 casos, com 1296 casos confirmados de CHK e 118 descartados. Houve maior número de casos em mulheres e na idade adulta. Quanto ao diagnóstico, 1011 obtiveram diagnóstico clínicoepidemiológico e 330 por método laboratorial. A maioria dos casos foram autóctones. Sinais/sintomas mais relatados foram febre, mialgia, cefaleia e artralgia intensa. Assim, podemos concluir que houve uma epidemia de Chikungunya em 2017 em MT, que os casos notificados foram, principalmente, por método clinico-epidemiológico. Grande proporção dos pacientes apresentaram artralgia intensa, cefaleia, febre e mialgia

Physical and chemical characterization of yacon (Smallanthus sonchifolius) roots cultivated with different doses of potassium fertilization

The already marked tendency for functional food consumption, low in calories, and with biologically active properties, has been increasing. In this scenario, yacon tuberous roots, with high levels of nutraceutical fructooligosaccharides, gain importance. However, these nutraceutical properties depend on fertilization management. Thus, our study aims to evaluate different doses of potassium fertilization on the physicochemical characteristics of yacon roots. The experimental design consisted of randomized blocks, with 4 replications and 5 treatments: four doses of potassium fertilization (50%; 100%; 150%; 200%) of the reference value, corresponding to 178.7 kg.ha-1; 357.4 kg.ha-1; 536.1 kg.ha-1; 714.8 kg.ha-1 of potassium chloride – (KCl), and a control (soil without fertilization). The chemical features evaluated were pH, total titratable acidity, soluble solids, conductivity, turbidity, moisture and ashes. The texture profile was analyzed through toughness, adhesiveness, cohesiveness, chewability index, elasticity, and gooeyness. Most of the variables were influenced by potassium soil fertilization. Only turbidity, conductivity and gumminess showed no response to the applied doses, not fitting the tested models. Potassium fertilization improved both chemical (higher levels of soluble solids and less acidity) and physical characteristics (less hardness, chewability, cohesiveness, and adhesion) of yacon tuberous roots, bringing greater quality to the final product. Highlights Yacon is considered a prebiotic food. Several immunostimulatory characteristics promote antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, and antioxidant activity. Potassium is associated with root size, shape, texture, color, flavor, acidity, nutrient transport resistance, nutritional value, and even market value. Texture constitutes an important factor and quality criterion for the sensory acceptance of food. Thus, the results obtained show that potassium fertilization improves both physical and chemical characteristics of yacon roots. The best results were observed with the maximum dose of potassium fertilization (357.4 kg.ha-1 of KCl).The already marked tendency for functional food consumption, low in calories, and with biologically active properties, has been increasing.

Análisis preliminar de respuesta al tratamiento etiológico de la enfermedad de Chagas con Benzonidazol, Mato Grosso, Brazil / Análise preliminar da resposta ao tratamento etiológico da doença de Chagas com Benzonidazol, Mato Grosso, Brasil

Objetivo: Realizar una evaluación preliminar de la respuesta al tratamiento etiológico de pacientes con enfermedad de Chagas crónica con benzonidazol. Métodos: En un estudio de cohorte retrospectivo, los prontuarios de pacientes con enfermedad de Chagas crónica atendidos en el Ambulatorio de Enfermedades Infecciosas del Hospital Universitario Júlio Müller, en Cuiabá, Mato Grosso, de 2001 a 2019 fueron revisados. Se identificaron 46 pacientes tratados con benzonidazol por 40 o más días consecutivos y que tuvieron seguimiento serológico con inmunofluorescencia indirecta por un período de uno a 15 años después de recibir el medicamento. Se evaluaron criterios para resultados negativos y reducción significativa de anticuerpos anti-T.cruzi. Una disminución de al menos dos títulos serológicos en relación con el título previo al tratamiento se consideró predictor favorable de curación. Resultados: La densidad de incidencia de negativización y de reducción significativa de anticuerpos anti-T.cruzi fueron de 0,9/100 pacientes-año y 8,4/100 pacientes-año, respectivamente. Sólo dos pacientes tenían anti-T.cruzi negativo al final del período de seguimiento. En cuanto a la reducción significativa de anticuerpos, se observó en 18 (39,1%) de los 46 pacientes, en mayor proporción a los 5 años de seguimiento serológico. Conclusión: En un período de uno a 15 años de seguimiento de pacientes con enfermedad de Chagas crónica tratados con benzonidazol, aún se observa una baja tasa de negativización como marcador de respuesta terapéutica. Sin embargo, una mayor tasa de reducción significativa de anticuerpos anti-T.cruzi durante este período de seguimiento, lo que puede indicar una posible eficacia del tratamiento etiológico de estos casos. Aún es necesario un seguimiento serológico más largo para una mejor conclusión sobre la eficacia del benzonidazol en el tratamiento de la fase crónica de la enfermedad de Chagas

Random regression models in the selection of meat‑type quails for egg production

O objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar modelos de regressão aleatória com diferentes ordens de polinômios de Legendre, quanto ao melhor ajuste para a produção de ovos de codornas de corte. Foram avaliados os grupos genéticos UFV1 e UFV2 de codornas de corte, de origens distintas, do programa de melhoramento genético da Universidade Federal de Viçosa. Determinou-se a produção semanal de ovos de 1.294 matrizes, da 6ª até a 57ª semana de idade, das quais 644 do grupo genético UFV1 e 650 do UFV2. Utilizou-se o modelo animal em regressão aleatória pelo programa Wombat e, para modelar as trajetórias das características com o tempo, aplicaram-se as funções polinomiais de Legendre. Foram feitas comparações pelo critério de informação de Akaike, critério de informação bayesiano de Schwarz, logaritmo da função de verossimilhança e teste da razão de  verossimilhança. O modelo com K = 3, para efeitos fixos, Ka = 4, para efeitos genéticos, e Kc = 4, para efeito de ambiente, propicia melhor ajuste para ambas as linhagens, não provoca grandes alterações nos componentes de variância e fornece melhores estimativas de herdabilidade.The objective of this work was to evaluate random regression models with different orders of Legendre polynomials, as to the best fit for egg production of meat‑type quails. UFV1 and UFV2 genetic groups of meat‑type quails, from different origins, of the genetic breeding program of the Universidade Federal de Viçosa, Brazil, were evaluated. Egg production was determined weekly for 1,294 quails, from their 6th to their 57th week of age, of which 644 were from the genetic group UFV1, and 650 from UFV2. The animal model was used in random regression by Wombat software, and, for modeling variable trajectories in time, the Legendre’s polynomial functions were applied. Comparisons were made by the Akaike’s information criterion, the Bayesian information criterion of Schwarz, the logarithm of the likelihood function, and the likelihood ratio test. The model with K = 3, for fixed effects, Ka = 4, for genetic effects, and Kc = 4, for the effect of environment provides the best fit, do not causes major changes in the variance components, and provides better estimates of heritability
