title: Subfossil and periphytic diatoms from the upper Paraná river, Brazil: last ~1000 years of a transition period

description: ABSTRACT Considering the lack of knowledge regarding the paleolimnology and the diatom flora from the sediment in Brazilian aquatic environments, this study aimed to provide information about diatom biodiversity and autoecology in an environment located in the upper Paraná river floodplain. Sediment and periphytic samples were collected from a swamp located in an island of the upper Paraná river floodplain. Sediment samples were obtained by collecting a core of ~2 m with a calibrated date of 726 to 903 cal yr BP near the base. The core was sliced into layers of 2.5 cm, totaling 41 samples. Periphytic diatom samples were obtained by scraping macrophytes' petioles, totaling two samples. The community was represented by 31 species belonging to 15 genera. All of the taxa were found in the sediment record, and 15 were present in the periphyton. The three new records (Eunotia longicamelus, Planothidium bagualensis and Luticola hustedtii) reinforce the importance of paleolimnological and periphytic studies to increase information about the aquatic biodiversity.

title: Rootstock on production and quality of ‘Niagara Rosada’ grapevine

description: Abtract In Brazil, the producers have changed used rootstocks to get more vigor to scion. Rootstocks change the distribution of bud fruitfulness over grapevine shoots and the expression of the bud fruitfulness into fruit yield. Hence, these modification could alter ideal pruning length. In this way, it was evaluated bud fruitfulness, fruit yield and quality of ‘Niagara Rosada’ grapevine grafted onto rootstocks: ‘IAC 766’, ‘IAC 572’, ‘IAC 313’, ‘IAC 571-6’, and ‘Riparia do Traviu’, which ‘IAC 766’ is the most used rootstock in São Paulo State, nowadays. The evaluations were performed over three crop seasons, in a vineyard located in Louveira, SP. Two evaluations were performed in Brazilian traditional season, and one crop pruning was performed in Brazilian summer, called “off-season”. In traditional seasons, the bud fruitfulness was evaluated from the first to fourth bud in 2014 and to the fifth in 2015. In the off-season, bud fruitfulness was evaluated from the fifth to eighth bud. Fruit yield and quality were also evaluated over the three production cycles. Bud fruitfulness of ‘Niagara Rosada’ grafted onto the evaluated rootstocks showed that this characteristic was more affected by the environmental conditions, confirmed due to alteration of bud fruitfulness through production cycles. Additionally, no effect of rootstock was observed on fruit yield, and quality of ‘Niagara Rosada’. Only isolated variations were detected, and these are not enough to confirm the influence of rootstocks on scion of ‘Niagara Rosada’. Although no effect of rootstocks on bud fruitfulness, fruit yield and quality has been observed in the evaluated conditions, all rootstocks are recommended to be used in combination with ‘Niagara Rosada’.

title: Bryophytes in the Reserva Particular do Patrimônio Natural da Serra do Caraça, Minas Gerais State, Brazil

description: ABSTRACT The Reserva Particular do Patrimônio Natural da Serra do Caraça is located in the orographic complex of the Espinhaço Range and is characterized as a transition zone between two important Brazilian phytogeographical domains, the Atlantic Forest and the Cerrado. It is composed of different types of plant formations and presents, predominantly, the rocky fields. In the Reserva Particular do Patrimônio Natural da Serra do Caraça, we recorded 439 bryophyte species (238 mosses, 199 liverworts, and two hornworts), 74 (17%) Brazilian endemic species and 80 (18%) new records for Minas Gerais State. The Lejeuneaceae was the richest liverworts family, with 75 species, while Sphagnaceae showed the greatest richness for mosses, with 29 species. Most of the species found have a moderate distribution to the country and are Neotropical.

title: Hands hygiene and the use of gloves by nursing team in hemodialysis service

description: ABSTRACT Objective: to analyze the adhesion of the nursing team to the practice of hands hygiene (HH) and the use of latex gloves in a hemodialysis service. Method: this is a descriptive-exploratory study with a quantitative approach, performed between August and October 2016 in a hemodialysis service in the countryside of São Paulo State, Brazil, where the nursing team adhered to HH and the use of gloves. All ethical aspects have been contemplated. Results: there were 1090 opportunities for HH, with the adhesion rate being only 16.6%. Regarding the use of gloves, of the 510 opportunities observed, there was correct use in 45%, reuse in 25% and absence of latex gloves in 29% of the time. Conclusion: the rate of HH and adherence to gloves is far from ideal, contributing to the increased risk of infection for both the user and the professional.

title: Do the application forms and doses of boron affect wheat crops?

description: ABSTRACT Boron is one of the most limiting micronutrients in the grain production system in Brazil. Thus, the objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of the application forms and doses of boron on the concentration of this nutrient in the leaves, straw, and grains of wheat, as well as the production components and grain yield. The residual effect of boron in the soil was also evaluated. An experiment was conducted in a no-tillage system in Oxisol with clay texture in Selvíria, Mato Grosso do Sul. The experimental design was a randomized block design with four replicates arranged in a 4 x 3 factorial scheme. Four doses of boron (0, 1, 2, and 4 kg ha-1) were applied with a boric acid source (B = 17%) and three application forms: a) during the desiccation of the predecessor straw with herbicide; b) at the time of sowing in soil along with formulated fertilization seeding, and c) via the leaves with the application of post-emergent herbicide. The application of boron to the soil at the time of sowing at an approximate dose of 2 kg ha-1 provides the highest number of spikelets per ear and wheat grain yield.

title: Non-heterossexual life frames in sociology textbooks

description: Abstract This article discusses how non-heterosexual lives are framed in high school sociology books from the 2015 National Textbook Program. These books deal with LGBT issues, unlike what is found in most textbooks, where these issues are silenced. Analyzing all sociology books approved by the Program in 2015, the article presents regular frames, in which continuities in a discursive order are recognized, and discontinuous frames, which present ruptures in this order. Overall, the ways of framing the LGBT lives are situated in an othering logic which broadens the distance between the reader and the topic under discussion. The discontinuous framings are brief, but offer an opening, a difference in the ways of showing LGBT issues within the textbooks, giving rise to new possible directions.

title: Long-term repercussions of Roux-en-Y gastric bypass in a low-income population: assessment ten years after surgery.

description: ABSTRACT Objective: to evaluate the weight, nutritional and quality of life of low-income patients after ten years of Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB). Methods: we conducted a longitudinal, retrospective and descriptive study evaluating the excess weight loss, weight regain, arterial hypertension, type 2 diabetes mellitus, anemia and hypoalbuminemia in 42 patients of social classes D and E submitted to RYGB. We assessed quality of life through the Bariatric Analysis and Reporting Outcome System (BAROS). Results: of the 42 patients, 68.3% defined themselves as doing non-regular physical activity, and only 44.4% and 11.9% had regular medical and nutritional follow-up, respectively. We found a mean excess weight loss of 75.6%±12 (CI=71.9-79.4), and in only one patient there was insufficient weight loss. The mean weight loss was 22.3%±16.2 (CI=17.2-27.3) with 64.04% of the sample presenting regain greater than 15% of the minimum weight; 52.3% of the sample presented anemia after ten years of surgery and 47.6%, iron deficiency. We found hypoalbuminemia in 16.6% of the sample. There was remission of hypertension in 66%, and of type 2 diabetes mellitus, in 50%. BAROS showed an improvement in the quality of life of 85.8% of the patients. Conclusion: in a population with different socioeconomic limitations, RYGB maintained satisfactory results regarding weight loss, but inefficient follow-up may compromise the final result, especially with regard to nutritional deficiencies.

title: Diagnosis and treatment of the Nutcracker syndrome: a review of the last 10 years

description: Abstract The nutcracker syndrome is characterized by a group of clinical manifestations caused by compression of the Left Renal Vein. The main symptoms are: macro and micro hematuria, proteinuria, and flank pain. Diagnosis is usually made after excluding other causes, because there are no clinical criteria for diagnosis. Confirmation is by Doppler ultrasonography or computed tomography. Treatment can vary, depending on patient characteristics and the severity of the symptoms, while conservative treatment, open surgery, and endovascular surgery may be employed. Currently, open surgery is still the first-line treatment, but some less invasive approaches are gaining acceptance.

title: Suicidal patients in a psychiatric emergency unit: clinical characteristics and aggression profile

description: Abstract Objective To explore and describe a profile of patients admitted to a psychiatric emergency facility, comparing patients with and without a recent suicide attempt in terms of their clinical characteristics and aggression. Methods This was an exploratory comparative study where patients were assessed using the Brief Psychiatric Rating Scale (BPRS) and the Overt Aggression Scale (OAS). Participants with a suicide attempt in the last 24 hours (SA) were compared to participants with a prior history of suicide attempt but no recent attempt (PHSA). Results 63 individuals (SA: 26; PHSA: 37) were selected. Both groups had similar demographic and clinical characteristics. The most prevalent diagnoses were mood (57.1%) and personality (50.8%) disorders. The majority of patients in both groups had a history of aggression episodes. Physical aggression in the week prior to admission was more prevalent in the PHSA group (51.4 vs. 19.2%, p = 0.017). The PHSA group also presented higher activation scores (p = 0.025), while the SA group presented higher affect scores on BPRS dimensions (p = 0.002). Conclusion The majority of individuals with a history of suicide attempt also presented a history of aggression. Inpatients with recent suicide attempt were hospitalized mainly due to the risk of suicide, while those with no recent suicide attempt were hospitalized mainly due to the risk of hetero-aggression. These findings support the hypothesis of an aggressive profile in suicidal patients and may open up a path for future research.
