Development and characterization of 14 microsatellite loci from an enriched genomic library of Eucalyptus camaldulensis Dehnh

Fundação de Amparo à Pesquisa do Estado de São Paulo (FAPESP)Eucalyptus camaldulensis Dehnh is an Australian tree species which occurs in various climatic and environmental conditions and show large genetic diversity. Twenty five microsatellite markers were developed from a CT(8)-GT(8) enriched genomic library of E. camaldulensis. The number of alleles ranged from 4 to 13 (average of 8). The polymorphism information content (PIC) and the discriminating power (D) of each primer ranged from 0.37 to 0.88 (average of 0.72) and 0.48 to 0.99 (average of 0.84), respectively. The observed and expected heterozygosities ranged from 0.28 to 0.84 and 0.25 to 0.90, respectively. Four loci showed statistically significant from Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium after Bonferroni correction (P, (5%) < 0.0038). All polymorphic markers were tested for cross-amplification in 25 different Eucalyptus species. Those microsatellite loci will be useful to investigate questions of genetic diversity and structure, gene flow, mating system and ex situ genetic conservation of E. camaldulensis.11465469Sao Paulo State GovernmentFundação de Amparo à Pesquisa do Estado de São Paulo (FAPESP)Fundação de Amparo à Pesquisa do Estado de São Paulo (FAPESP)FAPESP [05/58721-9, 05/59217-2

Violência contra a pessoa idosa: análise das notificações realizadas no setor saúde - Brasil, 2010 Violence against the elderly: analysis of the reports made in the health sector - Brazil, 2010

O objetivo do estudo foi descrever notificações de violência contra os idosos (> 60 anos) captadas pelo Sistema de Informação de Agravos de Notificação - versão net (Sinan Net) em 2010. Realizou-se estudo descritivo, retrospectivo, com dados analisados no Stata versão 11. Estimaram-se razões de proporção (RP) de violência segundo variáveis selecionadas. Das 3.593 notificações de violência contra idosos, 52,3% eram referentes ao sexo feminino. A violência física foi significativamente mais frequente no sexo masculino (RP = 0,82), no grupo com 60 a 69 anos, fora do domicílio, praticada por agressores que não eram filhos, com suspeita de ingestão de bebida alcoólica. A violência psicológica foi mais frequente entre idosas (RP = 2,17), no domicílio, infligida pelos filhos, com suspeita de uso de bebida alcoólica e de maneira crônica. A negligência predominou no sexo feminino (RP = 1,24), no grupo a partir de 70 anos, no domicílio, perpetrada pelos filhos e recorrente. A violência sexual foi mais comum no sexo feminino (RP = 5,21), por agressores que não eram filhos, mas que consumiram bebida alcoólica. O conhecimento das diferentes manifestações da violência contra idosos subsidia ações para o seu enfrentamento, identificando características de vulnerabilidade onde as redes de apoio podem intervir.<br>The scope of this study was to describe reports of violence against the elderly (e" 60 years) reported in the Information System for Notifiable Diseases - net version (Sinan Net) in 2010. We conducted a descriptive, retrospective study with data analyzed by Stata version 11. We estimated proportion ratios (PR) of violence according to selected variables. Of the 3,593 reports of violence against the elderly, 52.3% were against females. Physical violence was significantly more frequent against males (PR=0.82) in the group aged 60 to 69 years, out of the home, committed by offenders who were not sons and were suspected of drinking alcohol. Psychological violence was more common among elderly people (PR=2.17), in the home, inflicted by sons, with suspected chronic alcohol abuse. Negligence was predominant among females (P R=1.24), in the group above 70 years of age, in the home, recurrently perpetrated by sons. Sexual violence was more common against females (PR=5.21), by offenders who were not children, but who consumed alcohol. The knowledge of the different manifestations of violence against the elderly supports actions to combat them, identifying characteristics of vulnerability in which support networks may intervene
