title: Assessing disruption of longitudinal connectivity on macroinvertebrate assemblages in a semiarid lowland river

description: Abstract Aim: Our aim in this study was evaluate the effects of flow regulation for irrigation on the macroinvertebrate assemblages in a semiarid river. Methods We sampled two reaches in Dulce River; one placed upstream a weir that diverts flow into a network of irrigation channels and the other downstream that weir, in the assessment of the fluvial discontinuity. We assess the differences among reaches and sites, environmental variables, invertebrate density, richness and Shannon-Wiener index applying non-parametric analyses of variance Kruskal Wallis. The similarity percentage analysis (SIMPER) was used to identify which species contributed to the dissimilarities on macroinvertebrate assemblage structure. Canonical Correspondence Analysis (CCA) was performed with the total set of samples to explore macroinvertebrate distribution in reaches and associations of the assemblages with habitat variables. Results The density, richness and Shannon index values did not show differences between the reaches located upstream and downstream. Beta diversity (Whittaker) was 0.72 among upstream sites, 0.56 among downstream sites and higher species turnover (0.73) was obtained between both reaches. The Canonical Correspondence Analysis explained 46.71% of the variance differentiating upstream sites explained by higher values of organic matter of bottom sediments and discharge, high density of Nais communis, Bothrioneurum americanum, Pelomus, Stephensoniana trivandrana, Pristina menoni, P. jenkinae, P.longidentata, P. americana, Dero obtusa, Endotribelos, Heleobia and Turbellaria. The downstream sites were associated to coarser substratum and higher density of Lopescladius, Polypedilum, Cricotopus, Thienamaniella, Cryptochironomus, Baetidae, Nematoda and Corbicula fluminea. Conclusions The low-flow disturbance had effects on the composition of the benthic invertebrate assemblages, but attributes (such as density and richness) showed a lower variability probably because of taxa replacement.

title: Erosive rainfall in the Rio do Peixe Valley: Part III - Risk of extreme events

description: ABSTRACT Understanding the risks of extreme events related to soil erosion is important for adequate dimensioning of erosion and runoff control structures. The objective of this study was to determine the rainfall erosivity with different return periods for the Valley of the Rio do Peixe in Santa Catarina state, Brazil. Daily pluviographic data series from 1984 to 2014 from the Campos Novos, and Videira meteorological stations and from 1986 to 2014 from the Caçador station were used. The data series of maximum annual rainfall intensity in 30 min, maximum annual erosive rainfall, and total annual erosivity were analyzed for each station. The Gumbel-Chow distributions were adjusted and their adhesions were evaluated by the Kolmogorov-Smirnov test at a significance level of 5%. The Gumbel-Chow distribution was adequate for the estimation of all studied variables. The mean annual erosivity corresponds to the return period of 2.25 years. The data series of the annual maximum individual rainfall erosivity coefficients varied from 47 to 50%.

title: The development of interprofessional collaboration in different contexts of multidisciplinary residency in Family Health

description: Interprofessional collaboration (IPC) was analyzed in a multidisciplinary residency program in Family Health through the application of an interprofessional collaboration typology proposed by D’Amour et al. An analytical study involving multiple cases was carried out, using participant observation and semi-structured interviews with program coordinators, mentors and residents in two municipalities in the Brazilian state of Ceará, totaling 24 participants. The body of data underwent a thematic analysis based on D’Amour’s typology with triangulation of information gathered during the observation and interviews. All IPC indicators were found to have strengthened, both as a result of the political-pedagogical management of the program, as well as the work process involved in the Family Health Strategy. The Multidisciplinary Residency in Family Health is an innovative project, although the dynamics for interprofessional education at work still need to be better systematized in order to effectively ensure an active IPC. We suggest strengthening mentoring in service by means of training and greater acknowledgement of these professionals.

title: Methanization potential of anaerobic biodigestion of solid food waste

description: ABSTRACT Anaerobic biodigestion of solid and semi-solid wastes has been widely used for the treatment of these residues and methane production; however, during the process (more specifically in the acidogenic phase), there is a tendency of pH reduction, an unfavorable condition to methanogenic bacteria. Thus, the present work aims to evaluate the methanization potential of an agroindustrial anaerobic granular sludge (AIS) from UASB (Upflow Anaerobic Sludge Blanket) reactor, individually and biodigested with food waste (FW) from the University Restaurant of the Federal University of Pernambuco with buffering agent (AIS + FW + b) and without it (AIS + FW). After the laboratory tests, the AIS + FW + b configuration obtained a cumulative methane production approximately six times greater than that of AIS + FW, and approximately twice that of the inoculum alone (AIS).

title: Integrity of white matter structure is related to episodic memory performance in the low-educated elderly

description: ABSTRACT The low-educated elderly are a vulnerable population in whom studying the role of white matter integrity on memory may provide insights for understanding how memory declines with aging and disease. Methods: Thirty-one participants (22 women), 23 cognitively healthy and eight with cognitive impairment-no dementia, aged 80.4 ± 3.8 years, with 2.2 ± 1.9 years of education, underwent an MRI scan with diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) acquisition. We verified if there were correlations between the performance on the Brief Cognitive Screening Battery (BCSB) and the Rey Auditory Verbal Learning Test (RAVLT) with DTI parameters. Results: The BCSB delayed recall task correlated with frontotemporoparietal connection bundles, with the hippocampal part of the cingulum bilaterally and with the right superior longitudinal fasciculus. The RAVLT learning and delayed recall scores also correlated with the hippocampal part of the cingulum bilaterally. Conclusions: Although preliminary, our study suggests that the integrity of white matter frontotemporoparietal fasciculi seems to play a role in episodic memory performance in the low-educated elderly. This finding opens opportunities to study potential targets for memory decline prevention in vulnerable populations.

title: Whole-genome sequencing of Leptospira interrogans from southern Brazil: genetic features of a highly virulent strain

description: BACKGROUND Leptospirosis is the most widespread zoonotic disease. It is caused by infection with pathogenic Leptospira species, of which over 300 serovars have been described. The accurate identification of the causative Leptospira spp. is required to ascertain the pathogenic status of the local isolates. OBJECTIVES This study aimed to obtain the complete genome sequence of a virulent Leptospira interrogans strain isolated from southern Brazil and to describe its genetic features. METHODS The whole genome was sequenced by next-generation sequencing (Ion Torrent). The genome was assembled, scaffolded, annotated, and manually reviewed. Mutations were identified based on a variant calling analysis using the genome of L. interrogans strain Fiocruz L1-130 as a reference. FINDINGS The entire genome had an average GC content of 35%. The variant calling analysis identified 119 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), from which 30 led to a missense mutation. The structural analyses identified potential evidence of genomic inversions, translocations, and deletions in both the chromosomes. MAIN CONCLUSIONS The genome properties provide comprehensive information about the local isolates of Leptospira spp., and thereby, could facilitate the identification of new targets for the development of diagnostic kits and vaccines.

title: ADULT EDUCATION IN CHILE: PERCEPTIONS AND ASSESSMENTS OF ITS BENEFICIARIES

description: ABSTRACT The purpose of this paper is to analyze the perceptions and assessments of the beneficiaries of the main modality of adult education in Chile with regard to their educational experience. The study is based on an analytical empirical approach, and non-experimental design. A quantitative representative sample was obtained by clusters of schools in Santiago de Chile and allowed to survey 252 individuals attending the regular modality. The qualitative sample considered 30 students who were approached through structured interviews. The results confirm that this population comes from lower socioeconomic groups, with a history of repeated academic failure, but also support the conclusion that the representation of school failure is associated with individual performances rather than contextual factors. School failure is presented as an act of personal irresponsibility, even though the antecedents show it is a multicausal phenomenon, where external and internal factors intervene in the school system.

title: Use of Prohexadione Calcium on Grass Species Development

description: ABSTRACT: This study has aimed to evaluate the effect of prohexadione-calcium as a plant growth regulator on growth and quality of Japanese lawn grass, Broadleaf carpet grass and Bermudagrass. The treatments and doses of the prohexadione-calcium tested with two three reapplications were 27.5, 55.0, 110.0, 165.0 and 165.0 g a.i. ha-1, and a control without application of a growth regulator. Visual injury evaluations were performed using a scale of scores and plant height and chipping dry matter were determined. We have evaluated the total thickness of the sod grass, root length and dry matter of this material at the end of the experimental period. The study was arranged in a completely randomized design with four replications. The results were submitted to analysis of variance by F-test and the averages of the treatments were compared by t test at 5% probability. The prohexadione-calcium plant growth regulator was visually selective and reduced shoot growth of the three species of grass and can thus be used in the management of lawns in gardens and sports areas. As for the production of sod grass, the prohexadione-calcium can be recommended for Japanese lawn grass and Broadleaf sod grass, especially doses 165.0+165.0 and 55.0+55.0+55.0 respectively, because they have provided a better quality sod grass. For Bermudagrass, the effect of the treatments was harmful for the quality of sod grass and is not recommended for production purposes.

title: OPEN EDUCATIONAL RESOURCES AND COPYRIGHT: ANALYSIS OF BRAZILIAN WEB SITES

description: ABSTRACT The open access triggered the increase in the number of repositories and libraries that offer open educational resources. The word “open” leads to a reflection of what are the copyrights involving this concept, and if users are informed about these rights. The objective of this research is to analyze the information provided to users about copyright and licenses, in Brazilian educational repositories. It was concluded that minimal information was not made available to Internet users in the majority of the analyzed repositories. Access to information allows for more qualified user’s choices to exercise their rights, and the failure of the subject matter information may cause offense to the author’s rights.
