title: APCI(+)FT-ICR MS Analysis of Hydrocarbons Using Isooctane as Ionizing Reagent - A Comparison with HTGC-FID, GC×GC-MS and NMR

description: Hydrocarbons present in saturated fractions of crude oils can be assessed by atmospheric pressure chemical ionization (APCI) using small hydrocarbons as ionizing reagents in a Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometer (FT-ICR MS). In this work, five paraffin standards of different average molar mass distributions (Mw) were easily ionized by APCI(+)FT-ICR MS using isooctane as the reagent gas. Data of Mw, carbon number and double bond equivalent (DBE) distributions corresponding to linear and cyclic hydrocarbons (HCs) were compared to results obtained from analysis of high temperature gas chromatography with a flame ionization detector (HTGC-FID), comprehensive two-dimensional gas chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry (GC×GC-MS) and 1H and 13C nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy. APCI(+)FT-ICR MS data showed good agreement with those of analytical techniques. Furthermore, the ability of APCI(+) to assess n-paraffin, even in blends with polyaromatic hydrocarbon molecules such as coronene (Mw = 301 Da) at concentrations from 2.5 to 25 µg mL-1, was demonstrated. The typical MS paraffin profile (containing repeating mass units of 14 Da) was clearly confirmed, being totally suppressed when a concentration of 25 µg mL-1 of coronene was used. This phenomenon was also evidenced in one of two saturated fractions produced using saturates, aromatics and polar (SAP) compound fractionation methodology.

title: Living conditions, physical inactivity and sedentary behavior in young people in urban and rural areas

description: ABSTRACT Introduction: Little evidence highlights aspects of living conditions in adolescents living in urban and rural areas. Objective: To valuate indicators of living conditions associated to prevalence of physical activity level below the re-commendations (NAFAR) and exposure to sedentary behavior (ECS) in students in urban and rural areas of Sergipe, Brazil. Methods: We conducted a cross-sectional school-based study. The sample was composed of 3,992 students, aged 14-19 years. Results: The prevalence of adolescents with NAFAR was 77.5% (urban, 76%; rural, 80.0%) and ECS 46.7% (urban, 50.2%; rural, 41.2%). In urban areas, there was an association of ECS with the territory, period of study, maternal level of education, the adolescent's occupation and family income. The NAFAR was associated with residing with father and the father's work. In rural areas, ECS was associated to the period of study, the adolescent's occupation and family income. The NAFAR was associated with the adolescent's occupation. Conclusion: The results showed that the NAFAR and ECS were related to different indicators of living conditions, suggesting several interventions considering the place of residence.

title: Development speeches: (in) visibility of social, modernity and progress in Imperatriz, MA

description: Abstract: Starting from the analysis of the discourses produced regarding the implementation of the "modern" multinational Suzano Papel e Celulose, in the municipality of Imperatriz, MA, the research discusses the processes of invisibilization of the "other" in the discursive processes related to the "development". In order to do so, we use the contributions of authors such as Escobar (2005; 2007), Castro-Gómez (2005), Pinto and Mignolo (2015) and others who help us think about the tension between traditional knowledge and industrial modernity, about how important social actors and institutions stand on economic projects in the Maranhão Amazon.

title: Orofacial Dysfunction In Cleft And Non-Cleft Patients Using Nordic Orofacial Test - A Screening Study

description: Abstract Cleft lip, alveolus and palate is a congenital malformation caused by the lack of fusion of the lip and palate embryonic processes, which may disrupt the main functions of the stomatognathic system. Aim: This study aimed to assess the orofacial dysfunction in individuals with cleft lip, alveolus, and palate compared to non-cleft patients. One hundred and twenty individuals between 32 and 65 years of age were selected in the Craniofacial Center and in the School of Dentistry and divided into two groups: non-cleft patients (N-CLAP) and cleft lip, alveolus, and palate patients (CLAP). The two groups were matched by gender. Each individual was interviewed and submitted to a clinical evaluation during which the NOT-S was used to assess orofacial dysfunction. To verify the intra-examiner agreement, the values were compared using the Kappa test. The Mann-Whitney test compared performance on the NOT-S between the groups. The Chi-Square test compared the NOT-S domains between the groups. A comparison of the NOT-S scores between the groups revealed statistically significant differences in gender (p&lt;0.001), but no statistically significant differences in the intragroup gender comparison were found. The assessment of the NOT-S domains between the N-CLAP and CLAP groups exhibited statistically significant differences in domains: breathing (p=0.021), chewing and swallowing (p&lt;0.001), and dryness of the mouth (p=0.002) of the interview and significant differences in all domains of the clinical examination (p&lt;0.001). Individuals with CLAP showed more orofacial dysfunction than non-cleft patients, without gender differences, after being assessed through the NOT-S.

title: Germination constraints of dicarpic cypselae of Bidens pilosa L.

description: Abstract Bidens pilosa L. is a heterocarpic weed species with two cypselae types that present morpho-physiological differences, being the peripheral type smaller and slower to germinate than the central one. We aimed to verify how the germination mechanism varied between types. We focused on two mechanisms: (1) pericarp constraints (physical and chemical) and (2) hormonal stimulation (Abcisic acid [ABA] and Gibberellin [GA]). Both cypselae types are physically constrained by the pericarp, for when it is excised both seed types increase their germination, but behavioral differences still remain. The pericarp of the peripheral type also has chemical inhibitors that effectively inhibited germination of the intact central cypsela. To test the hormonal effects, we focused on the ABA:GA control. Both cypselae responded to an exogenous ABA concentration gradient, however there is no variation between types on the sensitivity to it. Also, both cypselae types were indifferent to Fluridone (ABA inhibitor), which indicates that the dormancy is not maintained by de novo ABA synthesis. Cypselae types had different sensitivity to an exogenous GA3 gradient, the central type being more sensitive to the treatment than the peripheral one. But when the endogenous GA synthesis was blocked by Paclobutrazol, both types responded equally to same GA3 concentrations. This indicates that endogenous GA synthesis may be related to differences observed on germination of cypselae types. To conclude, seed types differ on their growth potential to overcome the pericarp resistance: while the inhibitor in the peripheral pericarp reduces growth potential, GA increases it.

title: Reproductive parameters of Phytoseiulus macropilis (Banks) fed with Tetranychus urticae Koch (Acari: Phytoseiidae, Tetranychidae) in laboratory

description: Abstract Predatory mites that belong to the Phytoseiidae family are one of the main natural enemies of phytophagous mites, thus allowing for their use as a biological control. Phytoseiulus macropilis (Banks, 1904) (Acari: Phytoseiidae) is among the main species of predatory mites used for this purpose. Tetranychus urticae Koch, 1836 (Acari: Tetranychidae) is considered to be one of the most important species of mite pests and has been described as attacking over 1,100 species of plants in 140 families with economic value. The objective of the present study was to investigate, in the laboratory, the reproductive parameters of the predatory mite P. macropilis when fed T. urticae. Experiments were conducted under laboratory conditions at 25 ± 2 °C of temperature, 70 ± 10% RH and 14 hours of photophase. In addition, biological aspects were evaluated and a fertility life table was established. The results of these experiments demonstrated that the longevity of adult female was 27.5 days and adult male was 29.0 days. The population was estimated to increase approximately 27 times (Ro) in mean generation time (T), which was 17.7 days. Lastly, the mite population grew 1.2 times/day (λ) and doubled every 3.7 days (TD).

title: Influence of section and moisture content on the tensile strength parallel to fibers of bamboo culms woody material

description: ABSTRACT Bamboo is an abundant plant in tropical regions, which can be used as a nonconventional structural material; however, there is a high variability in its mechanical properties. This study aimed to evaluate the influence of the moisture content and of the sections (with and without node) on the tensile strength parallel to the culm fibers of three bamboo species (Dendrocalamus asper, Phyllostachys pubescens and Phyllostachys aurea), aiming at their use for structural purposes. For each moisture condition (ambient, saturated in water, oven dried and control), a completely randomized design, following a 3 x 2 factorial scheme, was used. Phyllostachys pubescens exhibited a higher tensile strength parallel to the fibers than the other species. In general, the node affected negatively the tensile strength parallel to the fibers for all analyzed conditions, while the moisture content did not show a significant influence, although the descriptive analysis exhibited its influence on the dimensional variations and water absorption.

title: Discovery of N-arylsulfonyl-3-acylindole benzoyl hydrazone derivatives as anti-HIV-1 agents

description: The discovery and development of novel inhibitors with activity against variants of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) is pivotal for overcoming treatment failure. As our ongoing work on research of anti-HIV-1 inhibitors, 32 N-arylsulfonyl-3-acylindole benzoyl hydrazone derivatives were prepared by introduction of the hydrazone fragments on the N-arylsulfonyl-3-acylindolyl skeleton and preliminarily screened in vitro as HIV-1 inhibitors for the first time. Among of all the reported analogues, eight compounds exhibited significant anti-HIV-1 activity, especially N-(3-nitro)phenylsulfonyl-3-acetylindole benzoyl hydrazone (18) and N-(3-nitro)phenylsulfonyl-3-acetyl-6-methylindole benzoyl hydrazone (23) displayed the most potent anti-HIV-1 activity with EC50 values of 0.26 and 0.31 μg/mL, and TI values of &gt;769.23 and &gt;645.16, respectively. It is noteworthy that introduction of R3 as the methyl group and R2 as the hydrogen group could result in more potent compounds. This suggested that introduction of R3 as the methyl group could be taken into account for further preparation of these kinds of compounds as anti-HIV-1 agents.

title: Hairy Tongue: Differential Diagnosis by Use of Widefield Optical Fluorescence

description: Abstract Hairy tongue is a benign pathology, characterized clinically by hyperkeratinized plaques on the dorsal surface of the tongue, hairlike, whose coloration ranges from unpigment, whitish, yellowish, green, brown to black. Diagnosis is clinical, and, in cases of whitish plaques, it may be difficult to differentiate between oral hairy leukoplakia, potentially malignant leukoplakia or squamous cell carcinoma. Thus, widefield optical fluorescence complementary examination may allow a better visualization of the local hairlike pattern of hyperkeratinization, typical of the hairy tongue, facilitating the diagnosis. In this work, a 57-year-old man was referred to the Dental Specialties Department of the Divinópolis Health Department (MG, Brazil) by a general dental practitioner, aiming a differential diagnosis of possible malignant lesion on the dorsal tongue surface. The complementary examination by wide-field optical fluorescence was performed. For this, it was employed a device with high-power light-emitting diode emitting light centered at a wavelength of (400±10) nm and maximum irradiance of (0.040±0.008) W/cm2 was used for fluorescence visualization. Fluorescence images showed projections of hairlike appearance in tongue dorsal surface with no aspects of malignancy. Hairlike appearance is the principal feature of hairy tongue. In this way, the final diagnosis was established. In conclusion, in this case, the use of widefield optical fluorescence in oral diagnostic routine provided a differential diagnosis, with no need of an incisional biopsy.

title: Physical-mechanical properties of laminated bamboo panels

description: ABSTRACT Bamboo is a material used on a global scale in several areas. However, it needs adaptation in the processes for industrial use, in Brazil. The production of glued laminated panels has been growing in the world and this material can be a source of resources for this purpose. This study aimed to evaluate the physical-mechanical properties of laminated bamboo panels produced with two species (Phyllostachys aurea and Dendrocalamus asper) and two production processes/adhesives (glued-laminated bamboo and thermo-mechanical laminated bamboo). For the mechanical properties analysis, specimens removed from the panels were subjected to shear tests, Janka hardness and static bending. The same specimens were used to determine the apparent density, moisture content and degree of compression. The apparent density varied between 0.75 g cm-3 and 0.79 g cm-3, with equilibrium moisture contents between 7.83 % and 10.42 %. The highest values for the mechanical properties were verified in the thermo-mechanical laminated process. For D. asper, the modulus of rupture was 146.8 MPa, the shear glued line 6.36 MPa and the Janka hardness 3,852 N, while, for P. aurea, the modulus of elasticity reached 19,603 MPa. It was concluded that the production of bamboo laminated panels, especially using the thermo-mechanical process, can be a potential alternative.

title: Optimization of conditions for apnea testing in a hypoxemic brain dead patient

description: ABSTRACT We report the case of a patient in whom brain death was suspected and associated with atelectasis and moderate to severe hypoxemia even though the patient was subjected to protective ventilation, a closed tracheal suction system, positive end-expiratory pressure, and recruitment maneuvers. Faced with the failure to obtain an adequate partial pressure of oxygen for the apnea test, we elected to place the patient in a prone position, use higher positive end-expiratory pressure, perform a new recruitment maneuver, and ventilate with a higher tidal volume (8mL/kg) without exceeding the plateau pressure of 30cmH2O. The apnea test was performed with the patient in a prone position, with continuous positive airway pressure coupled with a T-piece. The delay in diagnosis was 10 hours, and organ donation was not possible due to circulatory arrest. This report demonstrates the difficulties in obtaining higher levels of the partial pressure of oxygen for the apnea test. The delays in the diagnosis of brain death and in the organ donation process are discussed, as well as potential strategies to optimize the partial pressure of oxygen to perform the apnea test according to the current recommendations.
