title: HIBISCUS INCREASES FUNCTIONAL CAPACITY AND THE ANTI-OBESITY EFFECT IN TRAINED OBESE RATS

description: ABSTRACT Introduction Hibiscus sabdariffa (Hs) has been widely used for weight loss and in the fight against obesity-associated comorbidities. Objective To evaluate the effects of Hs and physical training on the functional capacity of normal-weight and obese rats. Methods Wistar rats were distributed into eight experimental groups: control (C, n = 8) , Hibiscus Sabdariffa (Hs, n = 8), high-intensity interval training (IT, n = 8), high-intensity interval training + Hibiscus Sabdariffa (ITHs, n = 8), obese (O, n = 8), obese + continuous aerobic training (OAT, n = 8), obese + Hibiscus Sabdariffa (OHs, n = 8), , and obese + continuous aerobic training + Hibiscus Sabdariffa (OATHs, n = 8). Hibiscus Sabdariffa extract was administered for 60 days in a dose of 150 mg/kg of body weight. The maximum progressive effort test (MPET) was performed on a treadmill at the beginning and end of the study. The variables analyzed were maximum speed Vmáx time, and distance covered. Lactate was measured immediately after the MPET. Functional capacity was evaluated by the distance/adiposity index. The ANOVA with Bonferroni post hoc and Pearson’s correlation tests were used at a 5% significance level. Results After both types of training, moderate-intensity continuous and high-intensity interval performed on the treadmill, final body weight, weight gain, and the adiposity index decreased, and Vmax, time, and distance covered in the MPET increased, in addition to an improvement in functional capacity. Hs supplementation reduced the adiposity index in normal-weight and obese rats. Hs associated with aerobic training reduced final body weight and increased functional capacity. Conclusion Hs supplementation promoted a reduction in the adiposity index in normal-weight and obese rats and an increase in the functional capacity of trained obese rats. Level of Evidence III; Therapeutic Studies - Outcome Investigation. Case study – control.

title: Analysis of professional training in Multiprofessional Health Residency Programs in Brazil from the perspective of residents

description: Abstract The aim of this study was to analyze professional training in multiprofessional health residency programs (MHRPs) in primary care from the perspective of residents from 20 programs who had completed residency in the period 2015-2019. We undertook a cross-sectional study analyzing criteria in the dimensions Pedagogical Approach and In-Service Education Settings responded using a 10-point Likert scale. The study sample consisted of 365 graduates from MHRPs in 12 Brazilian states. The highest-scoring criteria in the dimension Pedagogical Approach (Cronbach’s α=0.94) were broad concept of care and professional training oriented towards comprehensive care (P50=10). The lowest scoring criteria were those involving preceptorship (P50=7). With regard to the In-Service Education Settings dimension (Cronbach’s α=0.90), the main strength was group educational activities (P50=9) and the main weaknesses were adequacy of the physical structure of health facilities (P50=6), participation of residents in local health committees (P50=6), and coordination with medical residency programs (P50=5). The findings show that professional training in MHRPs is aligned with the principles and guidelines underpinning Brazil’s public health system, with emphasis on comprehensiveness and prevention. However, efforts are needed to improve preceptor training and address weaknesses in practice settings.

title: Oleic acid acutely impairs glucose homeostasis in standard chow diet but not high-fructose, high-fat diet-fed mice by acting on free fatty acid receptor 1

description: Abstract This study aimed to investigate the acute effects of oleic acid (OA) on glucose homeostasis in mice fed a standard chow diet (SCD) and a high-fructose, high-fat diet (HFrHFD); moreover, the role of free fatty acid receptor 1 (FFAR1) was evaluated. The mice in the two groups were further divided into three subgroups as follows: control, OA (40 mg/kg), and OA + GW1100 (0.4 mg/kg, selective FFAR1 blocker). After a 16-week feeding period, the mice received the drugs via intraperitoneal (i.p.) injection followed by an i.p. glucose tolerance test (IPGTT) 30 min later. After 3 days, the mice received the same drugs to examine the effects of the drugs on the hepatic levels of phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2) and diacylglycerol (DAG). OA in the SCD-fed mice significantly increased the blood glucose level (48%, P &lt; 0.001) after 30 min of glucose load compared to that in the control group, but did not affect the levels of PIP2 and DAG. Pre-injection with GW1100 significantly decreased the area under the curve of the IPGTT (28%, P &lt; 0.05) in the SCD group compared to that in the SCD + OA group. OA reduced the blood glucose level (35%, P &lt; 0.001) after 120 min of glucose load in the HFrHFD-fed mice; in addition, it increased hepatic PIP2 (160%, P &lt; 0.01) and decreased hepatic DAG (60%, P &lt; 0.001) levels. Pre-injection with GW1100 blocked the effects of OA on hepatic PIP2 and DAG without affecting the glucose tolerance. In conclusion, OA acutely impaired the glucose tolerance in the SCD-fed mice by acting on FFAR1 but did not improve it in the HFrHFD-fed mice.

title: Evaluation of biochemical and electrolytic components of semen from ram supplemented with different concentrations of selenium and its correlation with sperm quality

description: ABSTRACT The aim of the study was to evaluate whether supplementation with different levels of selenium (Se) can change the biochemical and electrolytic components of semen, causing an improvement in seminal quality in rams. Thirty animals were kept in an intensive pen system, fed with hay and commercial ration, allocated into five groups (six animals/pen) and supplemented with a mineral mixture containing 0mg (G1), 5mg (G2), 10mg (G3), 15mg (G4) and 20mg (G5) of Se/kg. Each group received a different treatment every 56 days and treatments were rotated between groups following a dynamic sequence. Semen samples were collected by electroejaculation after the end of each treatment to evaluate the levels of fructose, citric acid, potassium (K), sodium (Na), calcium (Ca), Se, zinc (Zn), manganese (Mn), sulfur (S) and lead (Pb). The statistical design was a 5x5 Latin square. The different levels of Se supplementation evaluated maintained the concentrations of electrolytes and minerals in the semen at the required levels and did not change the sperm quality, concluding that higher intakes of Se do not cause antagonistic effects on the absorption and subsequent action of other essential minerals supplied to the animals and still maintains electrolyte balance.

title: Financial losses related to placental retention in dairy herds in Turkey

description: ABSTRACT This study aimed to calculate the financial losses related to placental retention (PR) in dairy cattle in Turkey taking into consideration the previous study results in three different geographical regions and 87 herds of Turkey. The mean prevalence of PR in dairy herds was assumed to be 5.6% (4.1-6.7%). Direct (milk losses, treatment, and involuntary culling) and indirect losses (extended calving interval and extra insemination) were calculated. In the financial analysis, direct and indirect losses were calculated according to the current prices of 2022. As a result, the financial losses per infected dairy cattle were estimated at $ 249.7 (624 Lt milk eq.). A total of 67.7% ($173) of these resulted from direct losses, and the remainder 32.3% ($82.5), were indirect losses. PR was responsible for a total of $92 million (ranged from $67-110 million) losses, which equates to 1.2% (0.8-1.14%) of the annual milk production in Turkey. In conclusion, magnitude of PR-related losses will provide evidence-based decision support to the farmers and policymakers when determining the priorities for disease mitigation and control strategies.

title: Do audits of school meals impact the student performance rate? Analysis of the effect of a supervision program on students in municipal schools

description: Abstract We sought to identify the effect of audits of School Meal Programs on the performance rates of students in municipal schools. For this, the pass, failure, and dropout rates of students in the 5th year of elementary school, between 2011 and 2018, from the municipalities selectable in the Third Cycle of Inspection of the Controladoria Geral da União (CGU), which took place in 2016, were used. The randomization methods, used by the CGU in the selection of the inspected municipalities, and the diff-in-diff to determine the robustness of the results, were employed. The results did not identify any effect on the failure and dropout rates; however, the approval rate was positive for the estimation of the overall averages and two years after the inspections. Thus, it is possible to assume that structural changes took place in the management of school meals, enabling the PNAE resource to be used to contribute to the development and learning of students in public schools through meal plans.

title: GENDER NARRATIVES IN SCHOOL PHYSICAL EDUCATION: A SCOPING REVIEW OF THE BRAZILIAN SCIENTIFIC LITERATURE IN HEALTH SCIENCES

description: ABSTRACT: This study seeks to understand which gender narratives are present in the Brazilian scientific production regarding school Physical Education in health sciences. This is an exploratory study with a qualitative approach. The methodology used was the scoping review, and scientific articles in the Virtual Health Library were included. The sample of this study consisted of 16 articles, which were read entirely. As a result, it can be stated that: publications involve mostly public institutions, most of which happened in the decade of 2010. Elementary School was the most present educational level, and students had an important participation in these studies; the researches were mostly qualitative, being observations and questionnaires the most used collection tools. As to the concept of gender, the analysis made evident that all the studies that dealt with these relations understand gender as a social and historical construction. In this sense, we can conclude that the Brazilian scientific production in the field of Health Sciences that focused on gender relations in school Physical Education was outlined by searching for a better understanding of an excluding, sexist scenario, which stimulates in different ways the corporal experiences of boys and girls and reproduces stereotypes related to femininity and masculinity and, thus, throughout history, has placed girls in an inferior and unequal plan in basic education.

title: Divergence times of the Rhoadsia clade (Characiformes: Characidae)

description: Abstract The family Characidae is the most diverse group of fishes in the Neotropics with challenging systematics. The three genera Carlana, Parastremma, and Rhoadsia, formerly considered the subfamily Rhoadsiinae, are now included in the subfamily Stethaprioninae. Previous phylogenetic analyses did not include all genera of Rhoadsiinae, specifically Parastremma. Here, we estimated the phylogenetic relationships and divergence times of the genera of Rhoadsiinae (the Rhoadsia clade) relative to the most representative genera of the Characidae. We used six molecular markers from the mitochondrial and nuclear genome to estimate the phylogeny and divergence times. We confirmed the monophyly of the Rhoadsia clade. Furthermore, we estimated that the Central American genus Carlana and the western Colombian genus Parastremma diverged approximately 13 Mya (95% HPD 8.36–18.11), consistent with the early-closure estimates of the Isthmus of Panama (~15 Mya). The genus Rhoadsia, endemic to Western Ecuador and Northern Peru, was estimated to originate at around 20 Mya (95% HPD 14.35–25.43), consistent with the Andean uplift (~20 Mya).
