Analysis of paternal lineages in Brazilian and African populations
The present-day Brazilian population is a consequence of the admixture of various peoples of very different origins, namely, Amerindians, Europeans and Africans. The proportion of each genetic contribution is known to be very heterogeneous throughout the country. The aim of the present study was to compare the male lineages present in two distinct Brazilian populations, as well as to evaluate the African contribution to their male genetic substrate. Thus, two Brazilian population samples from Manaus (State of Amazon) and Ribeirão Preto (State of São Paulo) and three African samples from Guinea Bissau, Angola and Mozambique were typed for a set of nine Y chromosome specific STRs. The data were compared with those from African, Amerindian and European populations. By using Y-STR haplotype information, low genetic distances were found between the Manaus and Ribeirão Preto populations, as well as between these and others from Iberia. Likewise, no significant distances were observed between any of the African samples from Angola, Mozambique and Guinea Bissau. Highly significant Rst values were found between both Brazilian samples and all the African and Amerindian populations. The absence of a significant Sub-Saharan African male component resulting from the slave trade, and the low frequency in Amerindian ancestry Y-lineages in the Manaus and Ribeirão Preto population samples are in accordance with the accentuated gender asymmetry in admixture processes that has been systematically reported in colonial South American populations

Inquéritos antropométricos e alimentares na população brasileira: importante fonte de dados para o desenvolvimento de pesquisas
Avaliação do Ensino de Empreendedorismo entre Estudantes Universitários por meio do Perfil Empreendedor
Entrepreneurship is a socioeconomic phenomenon that has been valued for its influence on the growth and
development of regional and national economies. The main promoter of this phenomenon are entrepreneurs,
subjects endowed with multiple features that make up their profiles. They are dynamic and results oriented,
benefitting from the fruits of their own personal efforts. Entrepreneurial education is highlighted as one of the most
efficient ways to promote an entrepreneurial culture and train new entrepreneurs. However, some difficulty has
been observed in assessing the effectiveness of teaching and learning this subject. The objective of this study was
to analyze, by means of multivariate techniques, an instrument whose function is to measure the learning of
Entrepreneurship, verifying the change in entrepreneur profiles of 407 college students participating or not in an
entrepreneurial training process. The results showed that students who participated in Entrepreneurship
educational training activities showed significant changes in their entrepreneurial profiles. The main contributions
showed growth in the Self-realization, Planner, Innovative and Risks Assumed dimensions
