Published: June 2017

OBJECTIVES:

To quantify and describe variation in cause-of-death certification of sudden unexpected infant deaths (SUIDs) among US medical examiners and coroners.

METHODS:

From January to November 2014, we conducted a nationally representative survey of US medical examiners and coroners who certify infant deaths. Two-stage unequal probability sampling with replacement was used. Medical examiners and coroners were asked to classify SUIDs based on hypothetical scenarios and to describe the evidence considered and investigative procedures used for cause-of-death determination. Frequencies and weighted percentages were calculated.

RESULTS:

Of the 801 surveys mailed, 60% were returned, and 377 were deemed eligible and complete. Medical examiners and coroners classification of infant deaths varied by scenario. For 3 scenarios portraying potential airway obstruction and negative autopsy findings, 61% to 69% classified the death as suffocation/asphyxia. In the last scenario, which portrayed a healthy infant in a safe sleep environment with negative autopsy findings, medical examiners and coroners classified the death as sudden infant death syndrome (38%) and SUID (30%). Reliance on investigative procedures to determine cause varied, but 94% indicated using death scene investigations, 88% full autopsy, 85% toxicology analyses, and 82% medical history review.

CONCLUSIONS:

US medical examiners and coroners apply variable practices to classify and investigate SUID, and thus, they certify the same deaths differently. This variability influences surveillance and research, impacts true understanding of infant mortality causes, and inhibits our ability to accurately monitor and ultimately prevent future deaths. Findings may inform future strategies for promoting standardized practices for SUID classification.

*** Health’s Patrol Program: health indicators from federal highway policemen ***AIMS: To evaluate the socio-demographic, health, nutritional, physical and functional profile of federal highway policemen participants of the Health Patrol Program and evaluate the association of these characteristics with age and time of service.METHODS: Cross-sectional study with federal highway police officers from the city of Pelotas, Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil, in September 2015. Health Patrol Program’s participants who were not on vacation or license were included. Questionnaires with sociodemographic information, level of physical activity and musculoskeletal symptoms were applied. Anthropometric and nutritional data, blood pressure and physical and functional capacities were measured. The variables were categorized by age and time of service. The independent t-test and chi-square test or Fisher's exact test were used to evaluate the associations. The significance level adopted was p≤0.05.RESULTS: Of the 64 police officers from the Pelotas police station, 41 (64.1%) men met the inclusion criteria. There were higher percentages of married, non-smokers, with normal blood pressure and physically active in leisure (89.5%). The following means were recorded: body mass index 28.5±3.4 kg/m2, waist circumference 99.2±8.5 cm, body fat 25.1±4.9%, flexibility 21.2±9.4 cm, isometric handgrip strength of right and left hand respectively 47.4±6.2 kgf and 44.6±6.3 kgf and isometric strength of lower limbs 127.1±20.8 kgf. The average score of the functional evaluation was 13.8±2.6 points (57% with ≤14 points). The musculoskeletal symptoms that were most associated with absence from work were located in knee (22%) and low back (14,6%). Older policemen exhibited higher values for body mass index, waist circumference and body fat percentage, and the oldest in the corporation showed greater waist circumference.CONCLUSIONS: Even when they stated being physically active, federal highway police officers participating in the Health Patrol Program in Pelotas had often inadequate morphological and physical conditions, as well levels of strength and flexibility lower than those recommended for this population. In this sample, the more advanced age and longer service time in the Federal Highway Police were associated with morphological parameters of high risk for cardiovascular diseases. It was also observed that federal highway policemen had a high risk of musculoskeletal injuries and were absence from work mainly due to musculoskeletal complaints in the low back and knee regions.
Mortes no mar, dor na terra. Brasileiros atingidos pelo ataque do submarino alemão U-507 (agosto de 1942)
Authors: Ferreira Jorge
Published: June 2017

Desde fevereiro de 1942, navios mercantes brasileiros eram torpedeados por submarinos alemães. No entanto, com o rompimento de relações diplomáticas do Brasil com a Alemanha e a Itália, o governo nazista tomou a decisão de retaliar o governo Vargas. Para o litoral brasileiro foi enviado o submarino U-507. Em agosto daquele ano, em apenas três dias, cinco navios brasileiros foram afundados, resultando na morte de centenas de homens, mulheres e crianças. O artigo tem por objetivo conhecer, ainda que parcialmente, o sofrimento dos brasileiros que, a bordo dos navios, sobreviveram aos ataques do submarino alemão, a dor daqueles que perderam seus familiares e as repercussões da agressão militar alemã na sociedade brasileira.

Entre a liberdade e a ordem: o jornal O Estado de São Paulo e a ditadura (1969-1973)
Authors: Motta Rodrigo Patto Sá
Published: June 2017

O artigo analisa as representações políticas divulgadas pelo jornal Estadão no período mais agudo da ditadura, a fase entre o AI5 e o começo da distensão do governo Geisel. O objetivo é compreender as estratégias do jornal diante da ditadura militar que, de acordo com a análise apresentada neste texto, variaram entre a adesão e a acomodação. No período em foco, o Estadão batalhou para trazer a ditadura mais perto dos valores liberais e para isso lançou mão tanto de recursos verbais como visuais, assumindo riscos que acabariam provocando a censura prévia. A parte final do artigo aborda a estratégia do jornal no debate sucessório do governo Médici, quando pressionou para que o novo presidente iniciasse um processo de institucionalização ou normalização, o que nos termos do periódico significava fortalecer as instituições liberais sem romper com o poder militar.

Abstract:

Intruduction and aim: The Hungarian National Registry for Philadelphia chromosome negative myeloproliferative neoplasms has been developed. The aim of the recent study is to assess the clinical characteristics of Hungarian patients with polycythemia vera. Method: Data of 351 JAK2V617F and exon 12 mutation positive polycythemia vera patients were collected online from 15 haematology centres reporting epidemiologic, clinical characteristics, diagnostic tools, therapeutic interventions, thromboembolic complications, disease transformations. Vascular events prior to and after diagnosis were evaluated upon the Landolfi risk assessment scale. Results: 116 thromboembolic events were reported in 106 PV patients prior to diagnosis and 152 occasions in 102 patients during follow-up. The frequency of major arterial events were significantly reduced (p<0.0001) and the minor venous events were significantly elevated (p<0.0001) after the diagnosis. Major hemorrhagic complications were found in 25 and transformation in 26 cases. Conclusions: Our registry allows to collect and evaluate the features of patients with polycythemia vera. The Landolfi risk stratification was proven to be useful. Based on evaluated data, accuracy of diagnostic criteria and compliance to risk-adapted therapeutic guidelines are needed.

Újabb adatok a nem alkoholos zsírmáj patogeneziséhez
Authors: Pár Alajos , Pár Gabriella
Published: June 2017

Abstract:

Non alcoholic fatty liver disease is the hepatic manifestation of metabolic syndrome, and the most common liver disease. Its more aggressive form is the non alcoholic steatohepatitis. Multiple genetic and environmental factors lead to the accumulation of triglicerides and the inflammatory cascade. High fat diet, obesity, adipocyte dysfunction with cytokine production, insulin resistance and increased lipolysis with free fatty acid flux into the liver – all are the drivers of liver cell injury. Activation of inflammasome by damage- or pathogen-associated molecular patterns results in “steril inflammation” and immune response, while the hepatic stellate cells and progenitor cells lead to fibrogenesis. Small intestinal bacterial overgrowth and gut dysbiosis are also of pivotal importance in the inflammation. Among the susceptible genetic factors, mutations of patatin-like phospholipase domain containing 3 and the transmembrane 6 superfamily 2 genes play a role in the development and progression of the disease, similarly as do epigenetic regulators such as microRNAs and extracellular vesicles. Better understanding of the pathogenesis of non alcoholic fatty liver disease may identify novel therapeutic agents that improve the outcome of the disease. Orv Hetil. 2017; 158(23): 882–894.

PERBANDINGAN KEAKURATAN HASIL PERAMALAN PRODUKSI BAWANG MERAH METODE HOLT-WINTERS DENGAN SINGULAR SPECTRUM ANALYSIS (SSA)
Authors: Jatmiko Yogo Aryo , Rahayu Rini Luciani , Darmawan Gumgum
Published: June 2017

Metode Holt-Winters digunakan untuk memodelkan data dengan pola musiman, baik mengandung trend maupun tidak. Terdapat dua metode peramalan dalam Singular Spectrum Analysis (SSA), yaitu metode rekuren (R-forecasting) dan metode vektor (V-forecasting). Metode rekuren melakukan kontinuasi secara langsung (dengan bantuan LRF), sedangkan metode vektor berhubungan dengan L-continuation. Perbedaan metode tentunya memberikan perbedaan dalam keakuratan hasil ramalan. Untuk melihat perbedaan antara ketiga metode tersebut dilakukan dengan melihat perbandingan keakuratan dan keandalan hasil ramalan. Untuk mengukur ketepatan peramalan digunakan Mean Absolute Percentage Error (MAPE) dan untuk mengukur keandalan hasil peramalan dilakukan dengan tracking signal. Aplikasi dilakukan pada produksi bawang merah Indonesia periode Januari 2006-Desember 2015. Peramalan kedua metode di SSA menggunakan window length L=39 dan grouping r=8. Dengan nilai α = 0.1,  β= 0.001 dan γ=0.5, metode Holt-Winters additive memberikan hasil yang lebih baik dengan MAPE 13,469% dibanding metode SSA.
PEMODELAN MATEMATIKA INFILTRASI AIR PADA SALURAN IRIGASI ALUR
Authors: Manaqib Muhammad
Published: June 2017

Air merupakan salah satu kebutuhan utama dalam kegiatan pertanian, karena tanpa air yang cukup tanaman pertanian tidak akan berproduksi optimal. Cara untuk mencukupi air pada tanaman pertanian adalah dengan irigasi. Salah satu metode irigasi yang banyak digunakan pada pertanian di dunia adalah metode irigasi alur (furrow). Air masuk/infiltrasi ke dalam tanah dari dasar alur dan dinding alur menuju daerah perakaran tanaman. Kekompleksan proses infiltrasi air dalam tanah membuat analasis infiltrasi dengan percobaan labolatorium sulit dilakukan dan memerlukan biaya yang besar. Alternatif yang dapat digunakan adalah dengan pemodelan matematika. Makalah ini membahas tentang pemodelan matematika infiltrasi air pada saluran irigasi alur berbentuk trapesium. Model matematika ini berberbentuk Masalah Syarat Batas (MSB) dengan domain sebuah penampang melintang saluran irigai alur yang tertutup dan terbatas. Persamaan pengaturnya diperoleh dari Persamaan Richard, yang selanjutnya ditransformasikan menggunakan tranformasi Kirchoff dan variabel tak berdimensi menjadi Persamaan Helmholtz termodifikasi.

This article was migrated. The article was not marked as recommended. BackgroundUse of ultrasound (US) to guide invasive procedures is steadily growing. The increased accuracy, decreased complications and overall patient and clinician satisfaction of ultrasound-guided procedures makes it a useful skill to acquire. In this study, we explored whether basic procedural ultrasound training, specifically addressing vascular access, can be taught to medical students by focusing on generic skills that could be individually assessed.Methods215 5th year medical students were enrolled in the session. The session involved 70 minutes of didactic teaching and 140 minutes of supervised scanning followed by an assessment. The training was on ultrasound compatible phantoms and simulated human patients using a linear transducer.Results 93% (n=199) of students were able to optimize the image and visualize the relevant structures independently. 86% (n = 184) were able to insert the needle into the vessel of the training block independently using transverse view while 89% (n=198) were able perform the same independently with longitudinal view. Discussion The majority of students were able to demonstrate this skill with limited training. This study suggests that ultrasound skills requiring hand-eye co-ordination such as probe stabilization and real time needle insertion can be more intensively targeted in procedural ultrasound training programs designed for all medical students.
Can compassion be taught? A medical students' compassion discourse
Authors: Cathie Victoria , Whan Katie , Montgomery Julia , Martin Claire , Ramage Charlotte
Published: June 2017

This article was migrated. The article was marked as recommended. Background:Universities of Brighton, Surrey and the Brighton and Sussex Medical School responded to a regional bid to provide compassion awareness training to the local health care workforce. An appreciative inquiry methodology was used to develop a toolkit which included a number of different activities focussed on the following pillars. Appreciate (best of what has been), imagine (what might be), determine (what should be) and finally create (what will be). One of the toolkit resources focussed on seeking and celebrating acts of compassion. Methods:Following a cultivating compassion workshop, a group of medical students in their third year decided to use this activity from the Compassion toolkit to observe acts of compassion occurring within their clinical setting and reflected on the impact this activity had on them.Results: Themes deduced from the 34 acts of compassion witnessed included; team compassion, patient-centred compassion, peer to peer compassion and patient to patient compassion.Students' reflections about undertaking this activity were thematically analysed and emerging themes included self compassion, confidence about talking about compassion, changes in behaviour and finally how could compassion be taught at medical school.Conclusion:This study generated discussions on what was the difference between acts of compassion and normal human behaviour and the "hidden curriculum"of health professionals'behaviour. Students realised the importance of compassion and yet the absence of that word within their own curriculum. This small pilot study made it possible to consider how compassion can be taught within the undergraduate curriculum, simply by empowering students to open their eyes and witness compassionate acts. The medical students were able to see compassionate behaviour that they wished to model and that would support them once qualified.

ABSTRACT The objective of this preliminary study was to correlate diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) alterations with the cognitive profile of patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). Methods This was a case-control study conducted from December 1, 2012 to December 1, 2014. Clinical and demographic data were recorded. A neuropsychological test battery adapted to ALS patients was used. An MRI with DTI was performed in all patients and fractional anisotropy (FA) was analyzed in the white matter using the tract based spatial statistics program. Results Twenty-four patients with ALS (15 females, mean age 66.9 + -2.3) and 13 healthy controls (four females, average age 66.9 + - 2) were included. The DTI showed white matter damage in ALS patients vs. healthy controls (p < 0.001). Discussion In our preliminary study the alterations of white matter in DTI were significantly associated with cognitive impairment in patients with ALS.
The relationship between the First World War and neurology: 100 years of “Shell Shock”

Published: June 2017

ABSTRACT The First World War was a global war, beginning on 28 July 1914, until 11 November 1918. Soon after the beginning of the war, there was an “epidemic” of neurological conversion symptoms. Soldiers on both sides started to present in large numbers with neurological symptoms, such as dizziness, tremor, paraplegia, tinnitus, amnesia, weakness, headache and mutism of psychosomatic origin. This condition was known as shell shock, or “war neurosis”. Because medically unexplained symptoms remain a major challenge, and considering the close relationship of symptoms described in shell shock with clinical neurology, we should study their history in order to improve future care.

Resumo: Este artigo objetivou identificar a prevalência de insegurança alimentar em uma área rural do Nordeste do Brasil e investigar este desfecho de acordo com a residência em comunidades quilombolas e não quilombolas. Foi um estudo transversal com 21 comunidades rurais, sendo nove quilombolas, em 2014, utilizando a Escala Brasileira de Insegurança Alimentar (EBIA). Foram estimadas prevalências e razões de prevalência para insegurança alimentar, e a análise múltipla foi conduzida por regressão de Poisson com variância robusta. A situação de insegurança alimentar foi encontrada em 52,1% das famílias estudadas, sendo 64,9% entre quilombolas e 42% entre as demais. Insegurança alimentar foi associada a ser quilombola (RP = 1,25); ter nível econômico mais baixo (RP = 1,89; 2,98 e 3,22 para os níveis C2, D e E, respectivamente); ser beneficiário do Programa Bolsa Família (RP = 1,52); e ter quatro residentes ou mais no domicílio (RP = 1,20). A prevalência de insegurança alimentar foi elevada em toda a população, no entanto as comunidades quilombolas, apesar de pertencerem à mesma área de abrangência das outras comunidades, apresentaram uma prevalência ainda maior de insegurança alimentar, reforçando a vulnerabilidade dessa população.

Published: June 2017

Em 1996, uma nova era no tratamento do HIV/AIDS se iniciou com o advento da terapia antirretroviral altamente potente (HAART). O advento desses novos medicamentos ampliou os recursos terapêuticos, melhorou a expectativa e a qualidade de vida das pessoas vivendo com HIV e AIDS, favorecendo a manutenção e o início de relacionamentos entre parceiros com sorologias diferentes para o HIV. Este estudo com casais sorodiscordantes teve como objetivo central compreender as três dimensões da vulnerabilidade - programática, social e individual - entre esses casais. A pesquisa inserida no campo do construcionismo social utilizou o método de análise das práticas discursivas e produção de sentidos. Foram realizadas 40 entrevistas em profundidade com casais acompanhados em instituto de pesquisa clínica. Dentre os principais resultados, pode-se destacar a falta de informação sobre sexualidade na família e nas escolas, os conhecimentos distorcidos sobre prevenção e transmissão do HIV, as inadequações na realização do teste anti-HIV e as falhas na comunicação dos resultados.

Resumen: Presentamos resultados de una investigación en la que analizamos las experiencias de jóvenes, en torno a las violencias en barrios marginalizados, indagando sobre sus vinculaciones con procesos de vulnerabilidad y de reconocimiento. Para ello, utilizamos la estrategia metodológica de los relatos biográficos, construidos a partir de entrevistas semiestructuradas con diez jóvenes, de entre 18 y 26 años de edad, cuyos espacios de sociabilidad se encontraran en barrios marginalizados del Área Metropolitana de Buenos Aires, Argentina. Siguiendo los lineamientos de la teoría fundamentada construimos, codificamos y analizamos los datos de manera simultánea, utilizando como auxiliar el software Atlas.ti. La puesta en relato de las experiencias de jóvenes en torno a las violencias permite visibilizar el carácter dinámico y multidimensional de sus procesos de vulnerabilidad, identificando sus vinculaciones con formas de reconocimiento -afectivo, jurídico-moral y ético-social-, cuya negación en distintos momentos de sus vidas genera situaciones de menosprecio o invisibilidad social.
METODOLOGIA PARA ELABORAÇÃO DE DICIONÁRIO ANALÓGICO DE LÍNGUA PORTUGUESA

Published: June 2017

RESUMO O tema desta pesquisa se insere na linha de pesquisa Léxico e Terminologia, desenvolvida no Centro de Estudos Lexicais e Terminológicos (Centro Lexterm), da Universidade de Brasília. O objeto de estudo é o dicionário analógico, entendido como um repertório lexicográfico de caráter onomasiológico, no qual os lexemas são organizados partindo das ideias ou dos conceitos para chegar às unidades lexicais. O objetivo principal desta pesquisa é a criação de uma proposta de Dicionário Informatizado Analógico de Língua Portuguesa (DIALP). O público-alvo principal da obra é o aprendiz de Português do Brasil como Segunda Língua (PBSL). A seleção dos lexemas para compor os verbetes se baseia na aplicação da Versão Ampliada da Teoria dos Protótipos de Kleiber (1990) e da Semântica de Frames de Fillmore (1977) e na reformulação dos verbetes do Dicionário Analógico da Língua Portuguesa de Azevedo (2010). Para elaborar o modelo de dicionário postulado, adotamos a proposta metodológica para elaboração de léxicos, dicionários e glossários de Faulstich (2001) e aplicamos a proposta de Vilarinho (2013). A realização desta pesquisa contribui para o desenvolvimento tecnológico do Brasil, uma vez que não há registro de outra obra que tenha atingido satisfatoriamente os objetivos que este projeto se propõe a alcançar.
CLAVIS SINICA: BREVE HISTÓRIA DA LONGA BATALHA PELO SISTEMA DE ESCRITA CHINESA NO OCIDENTE ENTRE OS SÉCULOS XVI E XIX
Authors: BARRETO Cristiano Mahaut de Barros
Published: June 2017

RESUMO Este artigo tem por objetivo expor uma breve história das ideias na Europa, entre 1550 e 1900, sobre a língua falada e escrita na China. Seguindo o partido teórico do historicismo moderado de Sylvain Auroux (2004), sugerimos como fio condutor os discursos na disputa pela natureza da escrita chinesa: ideográfica ou fonográfica. Recusando-nos a tomar partido de uma ou outra alternativa, mostramos que este debate se desenvolve em torno de questões revisitadas ao longo destes mais de três séculos e que os estudos publicados pelos europeus encontram-se profundamente enraizados em seu contexto cultural, social e ideológico de produção. O status precário da escrita na história das ideias linguísticas se sobressai e aponta para o papel protagonista da escrita chinesa nas concepções de escrita desenvolvidas no ocidente, em particular sobre suas possibilidades representativas. Propomos, por fim, que os debates sobre o tema hoje reproduzem muitas das questões exploradas ao longo desta história, cuja resolução permanece ainda longe de um consenso.

ABSTRACT The objective of this work was to evaluate the effect of applying mixtures of chemical ripeners on the technological quality and agricultural productivity of sugarcane. The experimental design consisted of randomized blocks arranged in split- split-plots with four blocks, the main plots being constituted by sugarcane varieties SP803280 and SP801842. The subplots consisted of the application of the following products with their respective mixtures: control - absence of ripener; Sulfometrom methyl + glyphosate; ethephon + glyphosate; glyphosate and compounds of organic carboxylic radicals + glyphosate. The sub-subplots were composed of evaluation times: 0; 15 and 30 days after applying the products. Samples from each plot were collected manually and sent to the laboratory for the determination of soluble Brix solids (% broth); Sucrose content in the broth - Pol (% broth); Reducing sugars (RS%); Total reducing sugars (TRS%); Fiber (%); Purity (%); Humidity (%) and Total recoverable sugar TRS (kg t-1). The plots were fully harvested and the stems were taken for weighing and for characteristics determination: Yield per hectare (TCH) and Yield of sugar per hectare (TAH). The SP803280 variety was more responsive to the use of mixtures of chemical ripeners. For the technological characteristics, sulfometurom methyl (0.02 kg ha-1) + glyphosate (0.15 L ha-1) presented the best results from 15 days after application. Mixtures of chemical ripeners did not increase the yields of stalks and sugar per area.

Published: June 2017

ABSTRACT Intensive corn farming quickly depletes soil organic matter in the nutrient-poor soils of the Brazilian semiarid region. Application of vermicompost, an excellent organic fertilizer, could help solve that problem. This study evaluated the effect of applying Eisenia fetida vermicompost in the seeding furrows, at 0, 2, 4, 6, 8, and 10 Mg.ha-1 application rates, on the green ear yield and grain yield of two corn cultivars. Treatments were replicated five times with split-plots (vermicompost application rates within plots) in a completely randomized block design. The number of mature ears, number of kernels per ear (cultivar BR 106), and 100-kernel weight (cultivar AG 1051) were not affected by vermicompost application rate. However, vermicompost application increased total number and weight of unhusked and husked marketable green ears as well as grain yield. Total number of green ears was higher in cultivar BR 106 than in cultivar AG 1051. Conversely, grain yield and total ear weight and marketable weight of unhusked and husked green ears was higher in cultivar AG 1051, but responses in the latter two traits were dose-dependent.

ABSTRACT Cotton has great socio-economic importance due to its use in textile industry, edible oil and biodiesel production and animal feed. Thus, the objective of this work was to identify the best potassium rate and soil management for cotton crops and select among cultivars, the one that better develops in the climatic conditions of the Cerrado biome in the State of Goiás, Brazil. Thus, the effect of five potassium rates (100, 150, 200, 250 and 300 kg ha-1 of K2O) and two soil management systems (no-till and conventional tillage) on the growth, development and reproduction of four cotton cultivars (BRS-371, BRS-372, BRS-286 and BRS-201) was evaluated. The data on cotton growth and development were subjected to analysis of variance; the data on potassium rates were subjected to regression analysis; and the data on cultivars and soil management to mean test. The correlation between the vegetative and reproductive variables was also assessed. The conventional tillage system provides the best results for the herbaceous cotton, regardless of the others factors evaluated. The cultivar BRS-286 has the best results in the conditions evaluated. The cultivar BRS-371 under no-till system present the highest number of fruiting branches at a potassium rate of 105.5% and highest number of floral buds at a potassium rate of 96.16%.

ABSTRACT Wheat is a major winter crop in southern Brazil. To maximize its productivity, there should be no biotic or abiotic restrictions that can affect the yield components. Thus, the objective was to evaluate the changes caused in the wheat crop yield components by silicon foliar application. The experiment was conducted in two growing seasons. In the first year, five wheat cultivars (Quartzo, Campo Real, Onix and Fundacep Lineage) were assessed and in the second year four were assessed (Mirante, Campo Real, Horizonte and Quartzo). In both years the crops were subjected to three doses of silicon (0, 3 and 6 L of silicon ha -1). The silicon was applied during the tillering, booting and anthesis stages. The yield components assessed were the number of plants, number of ears, number of fertile tillers, dry matter per plant, hectoliter weight, number of spikelets, number of grains per spike, weight of hundred grains, grain yield and harvest index. Most yield components did not respond to the silicon foliar application. The harvest index (first year) and the number of tillers (second year) however presented a quadratic relationship with the supply of silicon. The remaining differences were attributed to variations among the wheat cultivars.

ABSTRACT This study aimed to evaluate combinations of cowpea-vegetable cultivars with carrot cultivars in a strip-intercropping system fertilized with roostertree. The work was conducted at the Experimental Farm "Rafael Fernandes" of the Universidade Federal Rural do Semi-Árido (UFERSA) during September 2013 to March 2014. The experimental design was a randomized complete block with four replications and treatments arranged in a factorial 4 x 2 scheme, resulting from the combination of four cowpea -vegetable cultivars (BRS Tumucumaque, BRS Cauamé, BRS Guariba and BRS Itaim) with two carrot cultivars (Brasilia and Alvorada). The characteristics evaluated in cowpea-vegetables were: number of green pods per area, productivity and dry weight of green pods, number of grains per pod, productivity of grains, weight of 100 grains, and dry weight of green grains. In the carrot cultivars, we evaluated total, commercial, and classified productivity of roots. The cultivar combinations were evaluated in terms of land equivalent ratio, productive efficiency index, score of the canonical variable, as well as indicators of gross and net income, rate of return, profit margin, and modified monetary advantage. The intercropping system using the cultivars BRS Guariba (cowpea) and Alvorada (carrot) achieved highest agronomic/biological efficiency. Highest economic efficiency was achieved with the combination BRS Tumucumaque (cowpea) and Brasilia (carrot).

ABSTRACT The common bean requires high levels of nitrogen (N) to achieve high productivity, which can be supplied, at least partially, by the biological nitrogen fixation (BFN). Two field experiments were carried out in the winter season of 2015 aiming to evaluate the effects of different cover crops, desiccation times and the agronomic performance of the common bean inoculated with rhizobia. The experiments were assembled in a randomized block design with four replications, in a factorial split-plot arrangement with two additional treatments (5x4x2+2). The factors were composed of five cover crops, four desiccation times, two seed inoculation treatments and two additional controls (TN = 90 Kg N ha-1 and T0 = without N and without inoculation). The variables analyzed in the cover crops were dry mass (DM) and total nitrogen (Total-N). With the common bean, the chlorophyll content (CC), the number of nodules (NN), the nodule dry weight (NDW), the shoot dry weight (SDW), the root dry weight (RDW) and the grain yield (GY) were evaluated. The results showed that the agronomic performance of the common bean was not affected by the desiccation times of the cover crops, although the amount of Total-N accumulated by cover crops was influenced by sowing times. Inoculation of the common bean promoted an increase in the NN, NDW, CC and SDW. Higher GY of the common bean was achieved with its cropping after Brachiaria brizantha, Brachiaria ruziziensis, millet and fallow.

ABSTRACT The restricted maximum likelihood/best linear unbiased prediction (REML/BLUP) mixed model method has been used to study the effects of genotype by environment interaction (G x E) in various crops including cowpea. This work aimed to analyze the G x E interaction via mixed models to identify cowpea genotypes that meet high adaptability, stability and productivity of pods and green grains when grown under Mossoró, Rio Grande do Norte State conditions. Crop value and use were evaluated in two growing seasons, using randomized complete blocks design with 23 genotypes and four replications. The genetic parameters were estimated by the REML/BLUP procedure and selection was based on the harmonic mean of the relative performance of genetic values (HMRPGV). Agreement between the HMGV, relative performance of genotypic values (RPGV) and HMRPGV statistics, provided genotype discrimination. Furthermore, the HMRPGV results enabled the simultaneous selection of superior genotypes for productivity, adaptability and stability. For the productivities of pods and green grains, the most notable genotypes were the cultivars BRS Xiquexique and BRS Aracê, and the line MNC05-835B-15, which showed a high productivity of grains, adaptability and stability, and could be grown in the two growing seasons considered in the study.

ABSTRACT The aim of this study was to evaluate physiological quality in seeds of sweet sorghum grown under semi-arid conditions, and to determine the age of physiological maturity of the seeds as a function of the foliar application of potassium silicate. The experiment was carried out at the Curu Valley Experimental Farm, in Pentecoste in the state of Ceará, during the rainy seasons of 2014 and 2015. The BRS 506 and BRS 511 varieties were used, under foliar fertilisation with potassium silicate at doses of 500, 1000 and 1500 mL.ha -1, in addition to the control lots (with no application); harvesting was at four periods, 30, 37, 44 and 51 days after full bloom (DAB). The percentage and speed of germination were evaluated, together with the accelerated ageing test and seedling growth. The seeds presented greater than 90% germination from 37 DAB, reaching high seedling vigour at 51 DAB. Foliar fertilisation with potassium silicate under the conditions of the experiment resulted in an increase in the physiological quality of the seeds. The BRS 506 and BRS 511 cultivars displayed the highest physiological quality between 49 and 53 DAF.

ABSTRACT Salinity problems are increasing in the semi-arid regions of northeastern Brazil. Thus, detailed studies of the region’s cultured crops, primarily salt-tolerant species, are important. Therefore, the aim of the present study was to evaluate the salt stress tolerance of lima bean (Phaseolus lunatus L.) seeds at different temperatures. This study was conducted in the Seed Analysis Laboratory, Agricultural Sciences Center, Federal University of Paraíba (Areia, PB, Brazil) by using seeds of four lima bean cultivars (Branca, Orelha de Vó, Rosinha, and Roxinha) in a randomized experimental design. Sodium chloride (NaCl) was used as a solute for salt-stress simulation at the following concentrations: 0.0 (control), 1.5, 3.0, 4.5, 6.0, 7.5, and 9.0 dS m-1; temperatures were maintained constant at 25°C, 30°C, and 35°C. Germination and vigor tests were performed to evaluate the treatment effects (first count, germination rate index, seedling length, and dry matter). Germination rate of lima bean seeds increased in salt concentrations up to 9 dS m-1, and seeds of Roxinha cultivar exhibited the highest salinity tolerance. The development of lima bean cultivar seedlings was negatively affected at 35°C under high-salinity conditions.

ABSTRACT The aim of this study was to identify parents and promising hybrid combinations for the improvement of forage watermelon. Five parents were evaluated: BGCIA 996 (1), BGCIA 997 (2), BGCIA 998 (3), BGCIA 228 (4), Jojoba (5) and ten F1 hybrids, which were obtained from balanced diallel crosses. The experimental design was in a complete randomized block, with three replications. The morphoagronomic and bromatological traits were evaluated. The highlights were the progenitors BGCIA 997, BGCIA 998, BGCIA 228 and Jojoba for protein content, fruit yield, in vitro digestibility of dry matter and number of seeds, respectively. The hybrid 1x4 stood out for fruit length, seed number, and ethereal extract. The hybrid 2x3 stood out for rind and pulp thickness while the hybrids 3x4, 3x5 and 4x5 had exceptional digestibility, protein content and fruit yield, respectively. The analysis of the standard deviation of the SCA estimates of both SD (Sij- Sik) and SD (Sij- Skl) indicated that no hybrids were found that had SCA estimates twice that of SD (Sij- Sik) or SD (Sij- Skl), except for the hybrid 1x4 for the number of seeds per fruit. These results suggest that the parents were more promising than the hybrids. Similarly, the GCA estimates favor the intrapopulation method, which will promote greater efficiency in selection for genetic gains.

ABSTRACT The aim of this study was to evaluate the frequency of quiescent fungi and the effect of phosphites under modified atmosphere on Lasiodiplodia theobromae in papaya. The fruits were treated with a range of doses of phosphites and their actions evaluated under conditions of ambient and modified atmosphere. Of the eight fungal genera found, Lasiodiplodia was the most common. No interaction was observed between the evaluated factors and only atmosphere and dose were independently significant. The usage of phosphites and modified atmosphere reduced the severity of the disease, and did not affect the chemical properties of the fruits.

A sorte da carne. Topologia animal nos Andes meridionais
Authors: Pazzarelli Francisco
Published: June 2017

Resumo: Este artigo apresenta uma análise etnográfica das relações estabelecidas durante a matança e as carneadas de animais de criação em uma comunidade aborígine do noroeste da Argentina, na região dos Andes meridionais. Argumenta-se que a topologia que se exprime a partir desses processos expõe os modos em que o espíritu (ou ánimu) dos animais e a relação de sorte que eles compartilham com os pastores devem ser tirados para fora dos corpos, na tentativa de transformá-los em carne comestível. Assim, as operações de separar, dobrar e envolver, junto com o processo de desidratação, tornam-se relevantes na hora de compreender as relações entre distintos corpos e as conexões potenciais entre diferentes lados do mundo.
Cães e preconceito na África do Sul: um diálogo entre literatura e etnografia
Authors: Borges Antonádia
Published: June 2017

Resumo: Coadunando ficção literária e etnográfica, o presente artigo toma como inspiração o romance Disgrace de Coetzee, os chamados discursos de ódio atribuídos a Julius Malema e a experiência dos moradores de fazenda na região de Kwazulu-Natal para problematizar disputas entre “ideais de existência” que têm cães como mediadores. O objetivo aqui é atentar para o efeito epistemológico que o entendimento das trocas de insultos por meio dos animais pode ter sobre nossa compreensão do racismo na África do Sul e alhures, e sobre o papel da antropologia a esse respeito.
