Orientadora: Profa. Dra. Diana Araújo Pereira. Co-orientadora: Profa. Dra. Andréia MoassabEsta investigação busca reconhecer a origem de paradigmas da visualidade moderno/coloniais na América Latina e identificar suas reverberações em experiências artísticas contemporâneas. Neste sentido, visa rastrear processos de inclusão subordinada de visualidades latino-americanas no cânone artístico, bem como o condicionamento dessas práticas a categorias eurocentradas de entendimento da arte. Tomando como disparador a seção de arte da América Latina da exposição Global Conceptualism: Points of Origin 1950s-1980s, este texto aponta elementos por meio dos quais se articulam construções hegemônicas do território que influenciam na (re)produção social e estética de estruturas modernas/coloniais de sentido e existência, e em especial, do ver.This research work tracks the processes of subordinated inclusion of Latin American visualities in the artistic canon, as well as the conditioning of these practices to colonial/modern categories of the understanding of art. Based in the Latin American section of the exhibition Global Conceptualism: Points of Origin 1950s-1980s, these investigation results point out elements through which hegemonic constructions of the territory defines and influences the (re)production of modern/colonial structures, particularly the field of visual culture

A RELEVÂNCIA DE MÚLTIPLOS GRUPOS ZOOPLANCTÔNICOS PARA O MONITORAMENTO AMBIENTAL NO CERRADO: ESTUDO DA ESTAÇÃO ECOLÓGICA ÁGUAS EMENDADAS

Because of the growing and intense impact of human population on natural resources, environmental monitoring programs become increasingly necessary to continually evaluate such impacts and propose mitigation measures in a timely manner. However, effective monitoring programs are limited by the lack of time, fi nancial resources and qualifi ed professionals. Thus, this study aims to evaluate the most effective strategies to monitor the zooplankton community in the Lagoa Bonita, located in the Águas Emendadas Ecological Station, Planaltina (DF). The following issues were raised: (i) which is the zooplankton diversity at the study area? (ii) do the zooplankton groups show concordant patterns of spatial distribution? (iii) is there a signifi cant loss of information when using higher taxonomic levels (genera data instead of species data) and different numerical resolutions (species occurrence data instead of organisms density data?). The results of this study indicates that cladocerans, copepods and rotifers could be well evaluated in a environmental monitoring program at genus level, once the loss of species data information is low. On the other hand, all zooplankton groups and the information generated from density data must be considered.Devido ao crescente e intenso impacto da população humana sobre os recursos naturais, programas de monitoramento ambiental tornam-se cada vez mais necessários para avaliar continuamente tais impactos e propor medidas mitigadoras em tempo hábil. Entretanto, efi cientes programas de monitoramento são limitados pela falta de tempo, recursos fi nanceiros e profi ssionais qualifi cados. Desta forma, este estudo pretende avaliar estratégias mais efetivas de monitorar a comunidade zooplanctônica em um pequeno lago tropical (Lagoa Bonita, localizada na Estação Ecológica de Águas Emendadas, Brasília - DF). As seguintes questões foram levantadas: (i) qual a diversidade zooplanctônica da área de estudo? (ii) os grupos zooplanctônicos apresentam padrões de distribuição espacial concordantes? (iii) existe uma perda de informação signifi cativa ao utilizar níveis taxonômicos superiores (dados de gêneros ao invés de espécies) e resoluções numéricas diferentes (dados de ocorrência de espécies ao invés de densidades de organismos)? Os resultados desse estudo indicam que programas de monitoramento ambiental na Lagoa Bonita poderiam avaliar cladóceros, copépodes e rotíferos utilizando informações em nível de gênero, pois a perda de informação relativa aos dados de espécies é pequena. Por outro lado, todos os grupos zooplanctônicos e as informações geradas a partir de dados de densidade devem ser considerados

High anti-SARS-CoV-2 antibody seroconversion rates before the second wave in Manaus, Brazil, and the protective effect of social behaviour measures: results from the prospective DETECTCoV-19 cohort

Background: The city of Manaus, Brazil, has seen two collapses of the health system due to the COVID-19 pandemic. We report anti-SARS-CoV-2 nucleocapsid IgG antibody seroconversion rates and associated risk factors in Manaus residents before the second wave of the epidemic in Brazil. Methods: A convenience sample of adult (aged ≥18 years) residents of Manaus was recruited through online and university website advertising into the DETECTCoV-19 study cohort. The current analysis of seroconversion included a subgroup of DETECTCoV-19 participants who had at least two serum sample collections separated by at least 4 weeks between Aug 19 and Oct 2, 2020 (visit 1), and Oct 19 and Nov 27, 2020 (visit 2). Those who reported (or had no data on) having a COVID-19 diagnosis before visit 1, and who were positive for anti-SARS-CoV-2 nucleocapsid IgG antibodies at visit 1 were excluded. Using an in-house ELISA, the reactivity index (RI; calculated as the optical density ratio of the sample to the negative control) for serum anti-SARS-CoV-2 nucleocapsid IgG antibodies was measured at both visits. We calculated the incidence of seroconversion (defined as RI values ≤1·5 at visit 1 and ≥1·5 at visit 2, and a ratio >2 between the visit 2 and visit 1 RI values) during the study period, as well as incidence rate ratios (IRRs) through cluster-corrected and adjusted Poisson regression models to analyse associations between seroconversion and variables related to sociodemographic characteristics, health access, comorbidities, COVID-19 exposure, protective behaviours, and symptoms. Findings: 2496 DETECTCoV-19 cohort participants returned for a follow-up visit between Oct 19 and Nov 27, 2020, of whom 204 reported having COVID-19 before the first visit and 24 had no data regarding previous disease status. 559 participants were seropositive for anti-SARS-CoV-2 nucleocapsid IgG antibodies at baseline. Of the remaining 1709 participants who were seronegative at baseline, 71 did not meet the criteria for seroconversion and were excluded from the analyses. Among the remaining 1638 participants who were seronegative at baseline, 214 showed seroconversion at visit 2. The seroconversion incidence was 13·06% (95% CI 11·52–14·79) overall and 6·78% (5·61–8·10) for symptomatic seroconversion, over a median follow-up period of 57 days (IQR 54–61). 48·1% of seroconversion events were estimated to be asymptomatic. The sample had higher proportions of affluent and higher-educated people than those reported for the Manaus city population. In the fully adjusted and corrected model, risk factors for seroconversion before visit 2 were having a COVID-19 case in the household (IRR 1·49 [95% CI 1·21–1·83]), not wearing a mask during contact with a person with COVID-19 (1·25 [1·09–1·45]), relaxation of physical distancing (1·31 [1·05–1·64]), and having flu-like symptoms (1·79 [1·23–2·59]) or a COVID-19 diagnosis (3·57 [2·27–5·63]) between the first and second visits, whereas working remotely was associated with lower incidence (0·74 [0·56–0·97]). Interpretation: An intense infection transmission period preceded the second wave of COVID-19 in Manaus. Several modifiable behaviours increased the risk of seroconversion, including non-compliance with non-pharmaceutical interventions measures such as not wearing a mask during contact, relaxation of protective measures, and non-remote working. Increased testing in high-transmission areas is needed to provide timely information about ongoing transmission and aid appropriate implementation of transmission mitigation measures.

Pervasive gaps in Amazonian ecological research

Biodiversity loss is one of the main challenges of our time,1,2 and attempts to address it require a clear un derstanding of how ecological communities respond to environmental change across time and space.3,4 While the increasing availability of global databases on ecological communities has advanced our knowledge of biodiversity sensitivity to environmental changes,5–7 vast areas of the tropics remain understudied.8–11 In the American tropics, Amazonia stands out as the world’s most diverse rainforest and the primary source of Neotropical biodiversity,12 but it remains among the least known forests in America and is often underrepre sented in biodiversity databases.13–15 To worsen this situation, human-induced modifications16,17 may elim inate pieces of the Amazon’s biodiversity puzzle before we can use them to understand how ecological com munities are responding. To increase generalization and applicability of biodiversity knowledge,18,19 it is thus crucial to reduce biases in ecological research, particularly in regions projected to face the most pronounced environmental changes. We integrate ecological community metadata of 7,694 sampling sites for multiple or ganism groups in a machine learning model framework to map the research probability across the Brazilian Amazonia, while identifying the region’s vulnerability to environmental change. 15%–18% of the most ne glected areas in ecological research are expected to experience severe climate or land use changes by 2050. This means that unless we take immediate action, we will not be able to establish their current status, much less monitor how it is changing and what is being lostinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersio
