Authors: Becker Michael , Krein Ulrike , Schiefner-Rohs Mandy
Published: November 2021

Die Erzeugung und Nutzung (digitaler) Daten gewinnt nicht nur im unterrichtlichen Kontext zunehmend an Relevanz, sondern Daten beeinflussen auch das Handeln pädagogischer Akteurinnen und Akteure und stellen diese vor (neue) Herausforderungen. Der Beitrag fokussiert hieran anknüpfend das Verständnis von Datenhandeln pädagogischen Personals in dessen Alltag. Unter der Prämisse, dass Metaphern Denk- und Handlungsorientierungen sichtbar und damit auch Un-Sagbares sowie handlungsleitende Sinnstrukturen zum Ausdruck bringen können, rekonstruieren wir die in diesem Zusammenhang gebrauchte Verwendung metaphorischer Konzepte in Interviews mit Schulleitungen. Nach einer kurzen theoretischen und methodischen Rahmung des Artikels werden im empirischen Ergebnisteil vier rekonstruierte metaphorische Konzepte (Datenhandeln ist verwalten, Datenhandeln ist schützen, Datenhandeln ist sichtbarmachen sowie Datenhandeln ist Waren austauschen) vorgestellt und diskutiert. Diese unterscheiden sich zwar hinsichtlich ihrer Funktionen, weisen aber als Common Sense auf ein weitestgehend vergegenständlichtes Verständnis von Daten in Schule hin.
The Effects of Environment on Memory and Reasoning Skills: Comparing Natural and Artificial Environments
Authors: Prentice Stephen B. , Waliczek Tina M.
Published: November 2021

The attention restoration theory suggests that directed attention is subject to fatigue, and the presence of nature and natural environments allows recovery from that fatigue, consequently improving cognitive function. The purpose of this study was to investigate whether the mental processes of memory and reasoning were enhanced when exercised concurrently in a natural environment outdoors vs. an artificial environment such as an indoor classroom or lecture hall. Three hundred and eighty degree-seeking students at Texas State University were tested using modified forms of the Sentence Repetition Test and the California Verbal Learning Test to test verbal memory and a modified form of the Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale-IV Matrix Reasoning Test to evaluate nonverbal reasoning/fluid intelligence. Half of the subjects (190) were tested in their classroom at the regularly scheduled class time or one located in the same building at a predetermined date and time. Half of the subjects (190) were tested in an outdoor garden classroom at a predetermined date and time. No significant difference was found to exist between in either the memory or reasoning scores of the two groups. However, comparisons of subjects in the same demographic categories produced one significant difference. Students classified as seniors (P = 0.035) who were tested in the natural environment performed significantly better on the Sentence Repetition Test compared with those tested in the artificial environment. Research generally supports the premise that exposure to nature or natural environments can have beneficial effects on physical and mental health and also improve cognitive function. Further studies should possibly include more than one meeting time and additional testing time for participants to sit and observe in the natural vs. artificial environment before testing.
Structural analysis of a cylindrical gear in the ANSYS program
Authors: T M tefnescu
Published: November 2021

Among most military ships, the use of a performing marine gearbox is mandatory due to their propulsion systems based on gas turbines in most cases. Military vessels are navigating under different conditions and this determines different operating modes for the propulsion system, thus the main gearing. Each of this operating mode determines different types of stress and deformation values upon the gears inside the main gearing. The purpose of this paper is the simplified gear analysis inside the gearbox using the Ansys program related to different operating modes of the propulsion system.

New Tools and Techniques Used to Improve Seafarers’ social and multicultural abilities in an expanding technological society
Authors: C. Varsami
Published: November 2021

Maritime Universities all over the world have the responsibility to train students not only to perform their daily duties according to their job description onboard ships but also to be able to socialize properly with their co-workers when performing duties which involve purely technical skills. Such a task could prove even more difficult because it is directly related to developing social skills and cultural awareness for students while putting into practice the technical knowledge acquired during university studies. In this paper, we intend to present Constanta Maritime University’s (CMU) challenge in the training meant to meet not only STCW 2010 Manila Amendments but also the multitude of social problems which can arise inside a multinational crew along with the continuous development of technology onboard ships. We are going to focus mainly on three different subjects which are part of our university’s training when it comes to providing proper social abilities onboard ships along with a correct technical training. Our Navigation Department introduced in the training programme subjects such as “Culture and Multiculturalism” and “Communication Elements Onboard Ships”. These two subjects aim precisely at raising future officers’ awareness of multicultural crews and the differences which could arise from the technological point of view in what proper social relationships mean in such a situation. A “Leadership” course for master studies is also included in the curricula having as a target to enhance not only social responsibility but also conflict resolution onboard ships especially when such conflicts arise because of technical failures. Even if maritime training institutions’ graduates are engineers highly educated in technological subjects, nowadays society requires all crew members to have proper social skills too. Finally, our paper intends not only to emphasis the importance of such studies but also the final outcome which is expected from such changes in our training.

Authors: Gu Jianfeng , Munawar Maria , Castillo Pablo , Cai Bo
Published: November 2021

A stunt nematode species, Quinisulcius curvus, recovered from the rhizosphere of sea randa (Guettarda speciosa), is described and characterized herein based on integrative taxonomy. Morphometrics and distribution of all reported populations of Q. curvus are also discussed. The Chinese population of Q. curvus displayed slight variation in stylet length; however, the rest of the characters matches well with the original description. This is the first record of Q. curvus from Hainan, China, and the first molecular characterization for this species. Phylogenetic analysis based on partial 18S, 28S and ITS sequences placed Q. curvus with related stunt nematodes species, but clearly separated from them. The present study expanded the geographic record and provided molecular data on Q. curvus from China.

Authors: Demydov O. A. , Hudzenko V. M. , Pravdziva I. V.
Published: November 2021

Purpose. Reveal the features of the formation of a quali­ty indicator complex in winter bread wheat depending on the growing seasons, preceding crops and sowing dates, as well as differentiate and identify genotypes with high and stable levels of manifestation.
Methods. Field, laboratory, statistical.
Results. A different share of the influence of the year conditions, the preceding crop, the sowing date and their interactions on the quality indicators of some varie­ties was determined. A different reaction of varieties in terms of quality indicators, depending on the investigated factors was revealed. The variation was very low for test weight, water absorption ability of flour, crumb porosity. Strong variation was observed for flour strength after sunflower and soybean as preceding crops, alveograph configuration ratio after sunflower and soybean, index of elasticity dough after corn, valorimetric value after mustard, dough dilution degree after green manure, sunflower, corn and especially after mustard and soybeans. The varieties, which on average for 2016/17–2018/19 reliably exceeded the standard both in individual indicators and in general in terms of physical indicators of grain and flour quality and dough rheological properties. GYT biplot analysis identified the genotypes ‘MIP Vidznaka’ and ‘MIP Assol’ with a more optimal combination of increased yield and a complex of quality indicators in terms of different years, preceding crops and sowing dates. Some varieties, namely, ‘Estafeta myronivs’ka’, ‘Trudiv­nytsia myronivs’ka’, ‘MIP Valensiia’, ‘MIP Yuvileina’, ‘Balada myronivs’ka’, ‘Vezha myronivs’ka’ were inferior to them, but were significantly superior the others.
Conclusions. The selected by quality indicators varieties as genetic sources can be used in breeding process. A more stable level of yield and quality indicators at different sowing dates after different preceding crops should be expected for growing varieties ‘MIP Vidznaka’, ‘MIP Assol’, as well as ‘Estafeta myronivs’ka’, ‘Trudivnytsia myronivs’ka’, ‘MIP Valensiia’, ‘MIP Yuvileina’, ‘Balada myronivs’ka’, ‘Vezha myronivs’ka’. The peculiarities obtained in the research should be taken into account when evaluating and differentiating genotypes in breeding process, as well as developing basic elements of technology for growing the varieties of winter bread wheat.

Published: November 2021

Since 1995, the Brazilian government has regulated a differentiated model for selling electricity with the objective of stimulating free competition. Widespread in recent years, with less restrictive adhesion requirements, the so-called free market allows the consumer to customize the contract, contemplating price, demand and supply period, established in a flexible way. Thus, the customer has the freedom to negotiate according to his needs, weighing costs and benefits. This paper describes the migration process from the Regulated Contracting Environment (RCE) to the Free Contracting Environment (FCE) and the savings achieved by a consumer of subgroup A4 and green tariff mode in the concession area of Light, which operates in the state of Rio de Janeiro. Statistical methods and artificial neural networks were employed in forecasting the consumption series, in the period from 2016 to 2019, to identify the best contracting conditions. Specifically, the long and short-term memory networks (LSTM) obtained the best performance with validation error of less than 1%. With simulated RCE data, we show the financial advantage consumers would have if they had not yet migrated to the FCE.
Performance of Scattering Transform Feature Extraction for Electrical Load Classification
Authors: Aguiar Everton Luiz , Lazzaretti André Eugênio , Pipa Daniel Rodrigues
Published: November 2021

The Scattering transform (ST) presents itself as an alternative approach to the classic methods that involve neural networks and deep learning techniques for the feature extraction and classification of signals and images. Among its main advantages, one can emphasize that the coefficients of the ST are determined analytically and do not need to be learned, as typically performed in Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs). Additionally, ST has time-shifting and small time-warping invariance, which reduces the need for precise temporal localization (detection) for subsequent classification. This paper originally proposes the application of ST to extract features and classify Non-intrusive Load Monitoring (NILM) high-frequency signals. We validate the extraction strategy performance varying several parameters for ST calculation, such as signal length, number of examples, and sampling frequency. The results outperform other state-of-the-art feature extraction techniques, reaching up to 99.98% of accuracy and 99.51% of FScore for a publicly available dataset, demonstrating the feasibility and promising aspects of the ST for NILM problems.

Authors: Silva Lucas Barth , Freire Roberto Zanetti , Canciglieri Junior Osíris
Published: November 2021

Given the social importance of energy, there is a concern to promote the sustainable development of the sector. Aiming at this evolution, from the 90s onwards, a wave of liberalization in the sector began to emerge in various parts of the world. These measures promoted an increase in the dynamism of commercial transactions and the transformation of electricity into a commodity. Consequently, futures, short-term, and spot markets were created. In this context, and due to the volatility of energy prices, the forecast of monetary values has become strategic for traders. This work aims to apply a computational intelligence model using Wavelet Transform on input values and the Extreme Machine Learning algorithm for training and prediction (W-ELM). The macro parameters were optimized using the Particle Swarm Optimization algorithm and for the selection of the input variables, a model based on Mutual Information (MI) was used. In the end, the methodology was compared with the traditional methods: Autoregressive Moving Averages (ARIMA) and General Autoregressive Conditional Heteroskedasticity (GARCH) models. Results showed that the W-ELM had better performance for forecasting 1 to 4 weeks of when compared to ARIMA. When the GARCH model results were considered, the proposed method provided worse performance only for 1 step ahead forecasting.
Use of Direct Aqueous Injection and Solid Phase Extraction Coupled with Hydrophilic Interaction Chromatography to Analyze Haloacetic Acids in Drinking Water Samples
Authors: Begambre Berrio Andrea , Barbosa Sergiane , Arias Jean , Marcolin Lucas , Primel Ednei
Published: November 2021

In this study, two analytical methods were evaluated to determine haloacetic acids (HAAs) in drinking water samples. Direct aqueous injection (DAI) and solid phase extraction (SPE) were evaluated and determination was performed by liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) with a hydrophilic interaction chromatography (HILIC) analytical column. Limits of quantification (LOQ) were between 10 and 500 µg L-1 by DAI and, considering a 125-fold pre-concentration step, between 0.08 and 2.0 µg L-1 by SPE. Five HAAs exhibited good linear correlation coefficients, accuracy (70-120%) and precision (≤ 20%) using DAI, while accuracy (50-120%) and precision (≤ 20%) were reached for SPE, with the exception of monobromoacetic acid (MBAA), which showed accuracy < 50%. DAI showed to be a simple, fast and promising technique that reduces operators’ exposure and may replace methods that require a derivatization process, reaching LOQs below those established by the regulations for most analytes. SPE using polymeric cartridges and 2 mL of acetonitrile as elution solvent showed to be an interesting alternative for samples with low levels of HAAs. After evaluating the techniques, DAI was successfully employed to determine HAAs in drinking water samples and DCAA was detected in samples in concentrations between 15.3 and 33.6 µg L-1 and DBAA in concentration below 10 µg L-1.

Published: November 2021

Quinones and organochalcogens are classes of compounds with great biological applicability, such as antioxidant, anticancer, anti-Alzheimer, and antidepressant activities, among others. Thus, the combination of these two classes of compounds is important to obtain new hits with biological activities that are additive or synergistic. Several methodologies for the preparation of this class of hybrid compound have been widely described. Many of the prepared hybrid molecules have shown increased biological activities and, in some cases, to act as two distinct pharmacophores. In this review, methods for the preparation of selenium-quinones, tellurium-quinones and their biological applications are highlighted.

Published: November 2021

The freshwater rockpools support high endemic biodiversity but are poorly studied habitats in the Western Ghats biodiversity hotspot. These freshwater rock pools are situated on outcrops at various elevations in the Western Ghats and are composed of different bedrocks such as laterite and basalt. We aimed to analyze the water quality, geographical position based differences in the water chemistry and the role of bedrock in determining the water chemistry of the rock pools. Our study showed a wide range of water quality variables such as pH, conductivity, and ionic contents that attributed to the natural variation. We observed a drastic variation in the anions and cations at low elevation pools. Rock type and precipitation are influencing the ionic concentration; for example, Calcium and Bromide could be attributed to the seasonal precipitation and geomorphology. This documentation of physicochemical properties of the Western Ghats rock pools can form a baseline for further detailed studies.

Published: November 2021

:

Like any other pandemic, Covid-19 scenario has also demanded effective treatment options.
The circumstances demand to utilize all the possible weapons in the armamentarium. There
have been many issues regarding the short-term and long-term safety and efficacy of these options.
Some options are like uncharted seas and these need a detailed and critical review with respect to
safety, efficacy, feasibility and financial constraints. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) therapy has
been studied for many years for its potential role in diseases with complex pathogenesis. Its efficacy
in controlling cytokine imbalance and immuno-modulatory properties is well proven. These effects
are being extensively studied for potential extension of the benefits for an effective option for
management of COVID-19 patients with severe respiratory involvement. In this mini-review, an attempt
has been made to review positive aspects, negative aspects, and challenges influencing
MSCs therapy in the management of COVID-19 disease. The results of various studies and literature
reviews show that MSCs therapy can be considered as one of the potential options.
This article reviews the role of Mesenchymal Stem Cell (MSC) transplantation in critically ill
SARS-COV-19 patients with lung involvement. The MSCs counteract the cytokine storm, regulate
the immune responses, facilitate the expression of essential growth factors, and eventually improve
the local milieu and promote the restoration of pulmonary vascular and alveolar linings for early
healing. As with all new therapeutic options, MSC therapy will also have to stand the test of time
with respect to safety, specificity, and constraints like mass production and “available for all” at
“affordable cost.”
Primary Hyperparathyroidism in the Common Orthopaedic Practice
Authors: Sferopoulos Nikolaos K.
Published: November 2021

An extensive review of the publications on primary hyperparathyroidism (pHPT) is presented in this report. It has strongly been emphasized in the literature that patients with pHPT may present either with the classical symptomatology or with asymptomatic disease, emerged due to biochemical screening. The clinical and epidemiological presentation of pHPT in western countries has changed profoundly during the past few decades, and bone disease is nowadays a distinct rarity. The introduction of serum calcium screening for osteoporosis and the technological advances in the laboratory assessment of parathyroid hormone have played important roles in early diagnosis. Subsequently, the disease is increasingly being detected as asymptomatic hypercalcaemia without guiding signs or symptoms. A third type of disease, the normocalcaemic variant, has been recently described in the literature. However, the potential diagnosis of pHPT should always be on the orthopaedics’ list of differential diagnoses in female or elderly patients with vertebral fractures and nephrolithiasis, either symptomatic or asymptomatic, as well as when solitary or multiple osteolytic lesions are encountered on the radiographs.

Additionally, a middle aged woman with parathyroid adenoma and subsequent brown tumors detected on the pelvic radiographs is reported. Her initial laboratory findings indicated a minimal increase of the serum calcium, a mild increase of the erythrocyte sedimentation rate, and a significant increase in total serum alkaline phosphatase. Finally, the detection of elevated parathyroid hormone levels indicated the diagnosis of pHPT and necessitated imaging studies of the parathyroid glands, which indicated a parathyroid adenoma. Following successful excision of the parathyroid adenoma, the patient suffered from the hungry bone syndrome. After a follow-up of 20 years, the patient had normal calcium, vitamin D, and parathyroid hormone serum levels, while a pelvic radiograph indicated no significant changes in the appearance of the brown tumors.

Crimen bajo ficción. Análisis de una disputa poética
Authors: Beltrán-Nieves Fernando
Published: November 2021

This article primarily examines the fictionalization of crime, a shared interest by the Argentinean writers Jorge Luis Borges and Ernesto Sabato, but it immediately postulates that while Borges' stories decisively nourished on crime, Sabato’s fiction opposed it. A possible explanation for that must be sought not only in their works themselves, but also aside them; the social distance separating Sabato from Borges. The article concludes by highlighting their shared interests, but above all pointing out their different views over the fictionalization of crime.

Published: November 2021

Persatuan dan kesatuan bangsa sangat penting dalam sebuah negara bangsa (nation state). Indonesia dihadapkan pada persoalan heterogenitas suku, bahasa, ras, agama, dan kedaerahan yang menjadi tantangan dalam membangunan budaya politik nasional. Oleh karena itu tujuan artikle ini adalah untuk mengkaji ikatan primordial dalam proses national and character building. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif dengan metode studi literatur. Sementara teknis analisanya menggunakan analisis isi. Kebutuhan data diambil dari berbagai sumber, baik buku, jurnal, maupun dokumen cetak dan digital. Temuan penelitian menunjukan bahwa (1) Primordialisme menjadi unsur yang paling penting dalam kenakaragaman bangsa dan berperan dalam menumbuhkan patriotisme, namun menjadi tantangan ketika membangun budaya nasional, (2) negara melakukan berbagai upaya dalam mempersatukan keragaman memalui berbagai kebijakan seperti monitisasi ideologi yang cenderung mengarah ke totaliter. Hal tersebut berimplikasi pada marginalisasi dan eliminasi yang menghambat kebebasan yang penting dalam membangun kreativitas dan inovasi dalam negara demokrasi.

In the second part, from the perspective of a paradigmatic moment of militarization of cities and urban life, it analyzes how and to what extent urban policies have been applied, in Rio de Janeiro, in a process of political violence directed against the poorest. In conceiving the urban peripheries and the favelas as battle spaces, enemy territories, these policies transfigure the urban life of the less favored classes in a constant logic negation of the city of urban violence.Keywords: Urbicide.

URBICIDIO EN RÍO DE JANEIRO
Resumen: El artículo reflexiona sobre el fenómeno del urbicidio manifestado en la ciudad de Río de Janeiro. Para ello, primero se apoya en estudios teóricos, en diferentes lugares, que incluyen Bosnia y Palestina, para explorar el concepto de urbicidio, con el propósito de contextualizar su uso y presentar sus aportes operativos en cuanto a la metodología y la concepción conceptual. En la segunda parte, desde la perspectiva de un momento paradigmático de militarización de las ciudades y la vida urbana, se analiza cómo y en qué medida se han aplicado las políticas urbanas en Río de Janeiro, en un proceso de violencia política dirigida contra los más pobres. Al concebir las periferias urbanas y los barrios marginales como espacios de batalla, territorios enemigos, tales políticas transfiguran la vida urbana de las clases menos favorecidas en una lógica constante de violencia urbana.Palabras clave: Urbicidio.

DISCUTINDO O ARTIGO 'O BARÃO DO RIO BRANCO E A GEOGRAFIA’ DE ANTONIO CARLOS ROBERT MORAES
Authors: Peixoto Renato Amado
Published: November 2021

Resumo: Este texto visa discutir e complementar o artigo ‘O Barão do Rio Branco e a Geografia’, um dos últimos escritos produzidos por Antonio Carlos Robert Moraes e que ficou inacabado com a sua morte. Para isto, procuramos incorporar o exame da produção cartográfica do Barão do Rio Branco – conforme sugerido por Moraes, adicionamos novos elementos ao exame do diálogo entre Rio Branco, Émile Levasseur e Élisee Reclus, e buscamos compreender o contexto da escrita de ‘O Barão do Rio Branco e a Geografia’. Ao fim de tudo, acreditamos que o embate entre as transformações na sociedade brasileira e a trajetória intelectual e profissional de Moraes explica a circunstância do artigo ter sido considerado inacabado ainda que já tivesse sido publicado por duas vezes.

DISCUSSING THE ARTICLE ‘O BARÃO DO RIO BRANCO E A GEOGRAFIA’ BY ANTONIO CARLOS ROBERT MORAES
Abstract: This text aims to discuss and complement the article ‘O Barão do Rio Branco e a Geografia’, one of the last writings produced by Antonio Carlos Robert Moraes and which was unfinished with his death. To this end, we seek to incorporate the examination of the cartographic production of Barão do Rio Branco - as suggested by Moraes, we add new elements to the examination of the dialogue between Rio Branco, Émile Levasseur and Élisee Reclus, and we seek to understand the context of the writing of ‘O Barão do Rio Branco e a Geografia’. After all, we believe that the clash between transformations in Brazilian society and Moraes' intellectual and professional trajectory explains the fact that the article was considered unfinished even though it had already been published twice.
Keywords: Antonio Carlos Robert Moraes, Barão do Rio Branco, Émile Levasseur, Élisee Reclus.

SONGKET MELAYU: SERUMPUN BANGSA SESANTUN BUDAYA
Authors: Ab. Aziz Arba’iyah
Published: November 2021

History has shown that the “songket” is in a class of its own in the socio-culture of Malays in the Malay Archipelago. Fundamentally, “songket” and its wearing have been the symbol of acceptance and the collective instillation of cultural values. The textile was created based on cross- and multi-cultural elements that have long been established and further assimilated into society today. Therefore, this study aims to trace the beginnings and roles of the royal institutions in spreading this heritage art between Malaysia and Indonesia, specifically for “songket” Terengganu and Riau. The research focuses on the similarities based on acculturation and assimilation of culture. This study is critical as a form of knowledge documentation for both countries, which share similar connections and homogenous values. The research employs the qualitative approach, with a focus on observation and conducting interviews. A secondary study is also conducted to analyse the historical and socio-cultural aspects involved. Interview subjects from both countries were chosen based on specific fields and locations. Each finding leads and adds to the existing body of knowledge. Since issues on the Malay World usually take on a broader outlook, the implications of the study can contribute to the ethnic group itself, especially the scholars, weavers, cultural activists, art historians and the community at large. Based on the quality and uniqueness of the “songket”, there is no doubt that the textile should be acknowledged as one of the greatest heritage art, saturated with civil values and symbols of the finesse of the Malays.
POÉTICA DO BANAL E SUA CONTRIBUIÇÃO AOS PROCESSOS E PRÁTICAS ARTÍSTICOS DOCENTES
Authors: Rodeghiero Thiago Heinemann
Published: November 2021

Este artigo tem como intenção tratar e pensar a contribuição dos processos artísticos às práticas docentes. Nas fronteiras borradas da arte contemporânea, filosofia e educação, delineia-se num plano de consistência que tensiona novas formas de fazer professoral. Recorrerá aos processos artísticos do pesquisador (poética do banal) para pensar meios, trajetos e forças que façam vetor às práxis pedagógicas. Busca nas filosofias da diferença de Gilles Deleuze e Félix Guattari um pensamento que prolifere como erva daninha e encontros que deem potência de agir. Tensionando os vazamentos de práticas educacionais baseadas em modelos estruturados, põe em movimento uma artistagem docente e uma formação sensível que buscam, na prática do artista-pesquisador e os artistas referentes Allan Kaprow, Paulo Bruscky e Karina Dias, forças para desenhar novas formas. Justifica-se por priorizar uma heterogenia dos elementos e matérias que rompem com os modelos hegemônicos e os assujeitamentos dos modelos de professorado para compor o território de pesquisa. Oferece à educação um pensamento calcado na prática de um processo artístico, fazendo e traçando um plano de consistência, desterritorializando as formas definitivas de bom professorado.
Toxoplasmosis in a free ranging hairy dwarf porcupine ( Sphiggurus spinosus) with a novel genotype

Toxoplasmosis is a zoonotic disease caused by the ubiquitous coccidia
Toxoplasma gondii. Rodents play an important role in maintaining
its life cycle, as they are one of the main diet sources for felids
(wild and domestic), the unique definitive hosts. However, reports of
toxoplasmosis in porcupines (Rodentia Order) are uncommon, with gaps
concerning its pathophysiology. South America is the continent with the
greatest genetic diversity of rodents and T. gondii. A
free-ranging hairy dwarf porcupine was admitted to a wildlife rescue
center with a history of trauma. During rehabilitation, the animal
presented neurological symptoms (sporadic episodes of hind limbs
paresis) and died five months later. The main findings during necropsy
were brain congestion and severe incisor overgrowth associated with
maxillary perforation. The histopathological exam showed moderate
encephalitis, with variable-sized round cysts, positive for PAS stain
and immunohistochemistry for T. gondii. Additionally, two cysts
were observed in the medulla of the adrenal gland. Molecular techniques
were performed to characterize the parasite load by qPCR (Cq=30) and the
genotype by PCR-RFLP with 11 markers, which revealed a new genotype.
This case adds to the body of knowledge in comparative pathology of
Neotropical Rodentia and reports a new genotype circulating in South
America.
