PARTO NORMAL EM GESTANTES PORTADORAS DE ASMA
Objetivo: Conhecer o motivo pelo qual gestantes portadoras de asma costumam optar por parto cesáreo. Materiais e Método: Trata-se de um estudo que se desenvolveu por meio de revisão bibliográfica, onde se optou pelo método de Revisão Integrativa da Literatura (RIL). Sendo utilizadas as bases de pesquisa Biblioteca Cientifica Eletrônica Online (SCIELO), Ministério da Saúde, e Literatura Latina Americana e do Caribe em Ciências da Saúde (LILACS). Resultados: O estudo busca salientar acerca do desconhecimento de informações sobre o parto normal em gestantes com asma. Sendo assim a metodologia desse estudo viabiliza em um acompanhamento adequado sobre orientações para contribuir na gestação e uma boa qualidade de vida para um parto seguro. Conclusão: Na gravidez a asma pode apresentar variações na qual pode ser controlada de forma eficaz, conscientizando-as sobre o acompanhamento durante a gestação, desde o início do pré-natal com orientações e tratamento adequado para que seja de forma benéfica, visto que a escolha permanece sendo da gestante de acordo com conduta médica, sendo que a asma não é contraindicação para parto normal
Short-Term Analysis of Human Dental Pulps After Direct Capping with Portland Cement
This study evaluated the short-term response of human pulp tissue when directly capped with Portland cement. In this series of cases, twenty human third molars that were scheduled for extraction were used. After cavity preparation, pulp exposure was achieved and Portland cement pulp capping was performed. Teeth were extracted after 1, 7, 14 and 21 days following treatment and prepared for histological examination and bacterial detection. Each group had 5 teeth. The results were descriptively analysed. Dentin bridge formation was seen in two teeth with some distance from the material interface (14 and 21 days). Soft inflammatory responses were observed in most of the cases. Bacteria were not disclosed in any specimen. PC exhibited some features of biocompatibility and capability of inducing mineral pulp response in short-term evaluation. The results suggested that PC has a potential to be used as a less expensive pulp capping material in comparison to other pulp capping materials

The Tree Biodiversity Network (BIOTREE-NET): prospects for biodiversity research and conservation in the Neotropics
Biodiversity research and conservation efforts in the tropics are hindered by the lack of knowledge of the assemblages found there, with many species undescribed or poorly known. Our initiative, the Tree Biodiversity Network (BIOTREE-NET), aims to address this problem by assembling georeferenced data from a wide range of sources, making these data easily accessible and easily queried, and promoting data sharing. The database (GIVD ID NA-00-002) currently comprises ca. 50,000 tree records of ca. 5,000 species (230 in the IUCN Red List) from \u3e2,000 forest plots in 11 countries. The focus is on trees because of their pivotal role in tropical forest ecosystems (which contain most of the world\u27s biodiversity) in terms of ecosystem function, carbon storage and effects on other species. BIOTREE-NET currently focuses on southern Mexico and Central America, but we aim to expand coverage to other parts of tropical America. The database is relational, comprising 12 linked data tables. We summarise its structure and contents. Key tables contain data on forest plots (including size, location and date(s) sampled), individual trees (including diameter, when available, and both recorded and standardised species name), species (including biological traits of each species) and the researchers who collected the data. Many types of queries are facilitated and species distribution modelling is enabled. Examining the data in BIOTREE-NET to date, we found an uneven distribution of data in space and across biomes, reflecting the general state of knowledge of the tropics. More than 90% of the data were collected since 1990 and plot size varies widely, but with most less than one hectare in size. A wide range of minimum sizes is used to define a \u27tree\u27. The database helps to identify gaps that need filling by further data collection and collation. The data can be publicly accessed through a web application at http://portal.biotreenet.com. Researchers are invited and encouraged to contribute data to BIOTREE-NET
