Self-interest and organizational performance: an empirical examination with U.S. and Brazilian managers
Bacteriological evaluation in Salmon (Salmo salar) benefit in fish's warehouse in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.
The consumption of raw fish is increasing in Brazil however it may present a higher risk to public health, because its integrity depends only on proper handling and storage. Hence, the use of effective means to ensure the safety of the product is extremely important. The aim of this investigation was to carry out microbiological analysis of salmon (Salmosalar) before and after the processing in a fish industry. The microbiological analyzes were: Salmonella spp(SS), Staphylococcus aureus (SA), total coliforms (TC), Escherichia coli (EC) and Aerobic Mesophilic Heterotrophic Bacteria (AMHB). The raw material and the final product had low levels of AMHB and SA. TC was in low concentration only in the final product. The SS and EC bacteria were not isolated. It is suggested that fish industries with ?good processing practices? can produce suitable raw fish to fresh consumption
Epidemiology and Clinical Forms of Primary Hyperparathyroidism: A Review
Primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) is a disease caused by overactive parathyroid glands with consequent hypercalcemia. However, its presentation is variable, with patients demonstrating a range from normocalcemia to severe hypercalcemic PHPT. The present study aims to perform a literature review on the epidemiology and the clinical forms of PHPT using information published in the PubMed and Cochrane databases. It describes data about prevalence, etiology, diagnosis, classic and non-classic manifestations, providing updated information on classical hypercalcemic hyperthyroidism, in addition to its normocalcemic variant
Left atrioventricular remodeling in the assessment of the left ventricle diastolic function in patients with heart failure: a review of the currently studied echocardiographic variables
Multiparametric echocardiographic imaging of the failing heart is now increasingly used and useful in decision making in heart failure. The reasons for this, relies on the need of different strategies of handling these patients, as differentiation of systolic or diastolic dysfunction, as well as on the gamma of approaches available, such as percutaneous and surgical revascularization, devices implantations, and valvular regurgitations and stenosis corrections. Congestive heart failure in patients with normal left ventricular diameters or preserved left ventricular ejection fraction had been pointed out recently as present in a proportion so high as 40 to 50 percent of cases of heart failure, mainly due to the epidemics in well developed countries, as is the problem of not well controlled metabolic states (such as obesity and diabetes), but also due to the real word in developing countries, as is the case of hypertension epidemics and its lack of adequate control. As a matter of public utility, the guidelines in the diagnosis and treatment of such patients will have to be cheap, available, easily reproducible, and ideally will furnish answers for the clinician questions not in a binary "black or white" manner, but with graduations, so if possible it has to be quantitative. The present paper aim to focus on the current clinical applications of tissue Doppler and of left atrial function and remodeling, and its pathophysiologic relationship with the left ventricle, as will be cleared in the documented review of echocardiography that follows, considering that the need of universal data on the syndrome of the failing heart does not mean, unfortunately, that all patients and clinicians in developing countries have at their own health facilities the same imaging tools, since they are, as a general rule, expensive

Manual para gestão da água e de resíduos do processamento de peixes.
O Manual para gestão da água e de resíduos do processamento de peixes é uma publicação técnica que aborda de forma organizada e didática duas questões fundamentais para gestão das indústrias de processamento de pescados nos tempos atuais: consumo de água e geração de resíduos. Para isso, reunimos uma equipe multidisciplinar com conhecimento em legislação, produção e sanidade de peixes, processamento de alimentos, melhoria de processos industriais, microbiologia, economia e estatística. Esse contexto ganha relevância diante da frequência com que diversas regiões no planeta têm sofrido com a escassez de água e com a contaminação química e orgânica dos corpos hídricos, em razão do descarte incorreto de resíduos e efluentes gerados nas indústrias. O foco no setor de pescados foi uma escolha natural por ser, entre os setores de processamento de carnes, o que apresenta as maiores taxas de expansão global. As orientações contidas neste manual estão alinhadas aos Objetivos de Desenvolvimento Sustentável (ODS), ratificados em 2015, durante a Cúpula das Nações Unidas sobre o Desenvolvimento Sustentável.bitstream/item/219270/1/2020-manual-gestao.pd
