Avaliação da qualidade de vida de portadores de insuficiência renal crônica em diálise renal
Aim:To evaluate the quality of life of people with Chronic Renal Failure (CRF) in hemodialysis treatment through the KDQOL-SFTM. Methods: Study descriptive - analytical, quantitative, with KDQOL-SFTM, in 32 patients with CRF. The answers to the questions of the questionnaire were distributed in a dichotomous scale and Likert scales, with the number of points ranging from ten to three. Results: The highest scores were the areas: the stimulation of the hemodialysis team (98, 44), sexual function (94.14) and symptoms and problems (76.04). The lowest were: burden of renal disease (12.34), physical function (23.44) and social support (30.21). Conclusion: The aspects that most affect the quality of life of these people encourage reflection about better planning and integral care by the health team, in order to attain a life of higher quality.Objetivo: Evaluar la calidad de vida de las personas con Insuficiencia Renal Crónica (IRC) en hemodiálisis, a través de KDQOL TM-SF. Métodos: Estudio descriptivo, analítico y cuantitativo, utilizando como instrumento para recolectar datos el KDQOL- SF TM, en una muestra de 32 pacientes con insuficiencia renal crónica. Las respuestas a las preguntas del cuestionario se distribuyeron en una escala dicotómica y en escalas tipo Likert, con puntuación que va desde diez hasta tres. Resultados: Las puntuaciones más altas fueron en los campos: estímulo del equipo de hemodiálisis (98, 44), función sexual (94,14) y síntomas y problemas (76,04). Los menores encontrados: sobrecarga de la enfermedad renal (12.34), función física (23,44) y apoyo social (30,21). Conclusión: Los aspectos principales que afectan a la calidad de vida de estas personas hacen reflexionar sobre un cuidado más planificado e integral que será prestado por el equipo de salud, médica, lo que permitirá vivir con más calidad.Objetivo: Avaliar a qualidade vida de pessoas com Insuficiência Renal Crônica (IRC) em tratamento hemodialítico, através do KDQOL-SF TM.

POÉTICAS DO ISOLAMENTO
Esta obra é composta por textos de um grupo de professores, que no ano de 2020, reinventaram-se em suas ações pedagógicas, buscando por meio da extensão dar continuidade ao ensino com a comunidade acadêmica e externa. O momento de distanciamento, em função da pandemia do Coronavírus, nos levou a busca de meios que possibilitassem o desenvolvimento das ações pedagógicas a distância. Então, iniciamos o processo de ampliar o nosso repertório digital para aplicá-lo no desenvolvimento das aprendizagens propostas por meio de minicursos, seminários, palestras e performances artísticas

ATLANTIC EPIPHYTES: a data set of vascular and non-vascular epiphyte plants and lichens from the Atlantic Forest
Epiphytes are hyper-diverse and one of the frequently undervalued life forms in plant surveys and biodiversity inventories. Epiphytes of the Atlantic Forest, one of the most endangered ecosystems in the world, have high endemism and radiated recently in the Pliocene. We aimed to (1) compile an extensive Atlantic Forest data set on vascular, non-vascular plants (including hemiepiphytes), and lichen epiphyte species occurrence and abundance; (2) describe the epiphyte distribution in the Atlantic Forest, in order to indicate future sampling efforts. Our work presents the first epiphyte data set with information on abundance and occurrence of epiphyte phorophyte species. All data compiled here come from three main sources provided by the authors: published sources (comprising peer-reviewed articles, books, and theses), unpublished data, and herbarium data. We compiled a data set composed of 2,095 species, from 89,270 holo/hemiepiphyte records, in the Atlantic Forest of Brazil, Argentina, Paraguay, and Uruguay, recorded from 1824 to early 2018. Most of the records were from qualitative data (occurrence only, 88%), well distributed throughout the Atlantic Forest. For quantitative records, the most common sampling method was individual trees (71%), followed by plot sampling (19%), and transect sampling (10%). Angiosperms (81%) were the most frequently registered group, and Bromeliaceae and Orchidaceae were the families with the greatest number of records (27,272 and 21,945, respectively). Ferns and Lycophytes presented fewer records than Angiosperms, and Polypodiaceae were the most recorded family, and more concentrated in the Southern and Southeastern regions. Data on non-vascular plants and lichens were scarce, with a few disjunct records concentrated in the Northeastern region of the Atlantic Forest. For all non-vascular plant records, Lejeuneaceae, a family of liverworts, was the most recorded family. We hope that our effort to organize scattered epiphyte data help advance the knowledge of epiphyte ecology, as well as our understanding of macroecological and biogeographical patterns in the Atlantic Forest.

Catálogo Taxonômico da Fauna do Brasil: setting the baseline knowledge on the animal diversity in Brazil
The limited temporal completeness and taxonomic accuracy of species lists, made available in a traditional manner in scientific publications, has always represented a problem. These lists are invariably limited to a few taxonomic groups and do not represent up-to-date knowledge of all species and classifications. In this context, the Brazilian megadiverse fauna is no exception, and the Catálogo Taxonômico da Fauna do Brasil (CTFB) (http://fauna.jbrj.gov.br/), made public in 2015, represents a database on biodiversity anchored on a list of valid and expertly recognized scientific names of animals in Brazil. The CTFB is updated in near real time by a team of more than 800 specialists. By January 1, 2024, the CTFB compiled 133,691 nominal species, with 125,138 that were considered valid. Most of the valid species were arthropods (82.3%, with more than 102,000 species) and chordates (7.69%, with over 11,000 species). These taxa were followed by a cluster composed of Mollusca (3,567 species), Platyhelminthes (2,292 species), Annelida (1,833 species), and Nematoda (1,447 species). All remaining groups had less than 1,000 species reported in Brazil, with Cnidaria (831 species), Porifera (628 species), Rotifera (606 species), and Bryozoa (520 species) representing those with more than 500 species. Analysis of the CTFB database can facilitate and direct efforts towards the discovery of new species in Brazil, but it is also fundamental in providing the best available list of valid nominal species to users, including those in science, health, conservation efforts, and any initiative involving animals. The importance of the CTFB is evidenced by the elevated number of citations in the scientific literature in diverse areas of biology, law, anthropology, education, forensic science, and veterinary science, among others
Aortic thrombosis in a patient with a late diagnosis of Behcet's disease
Behcet's disease is form of systemic vasculitis of unknown etiology. One surprising feature is that arterial involvement is less common in this disease than venous forms, accounting for 1 to 7% of patients. In 7 to 30% of cases the vascular symptoms precede the clinical diagnosis of Behcet. We describe the case of a patient with Thromboangiitis Obliterans who was treated with lumbar sympathectomy and an aortobiiliac bypass. Around 1 year later he was diagnosed with Behcet's disease after presenting with oral ulcers, genital ulcers and scaling lesions on the hands
Bilateral post-arterial puncture pseudoaneurysm in a patient with amyloidosis
Amyloidosis consists of deposition of insoluble fibrillar proteins in tissues and, causing dysfunction. In association with other factors, the condition can contribute to emergence of complications, such as pseudoaneurysms at arterial puncture sites. Pseudoaneurysms are becoming an ever-more common complication, which underscores the importance of identifying risk factors, so that their incidence can be minimized
