title: ISOLATION OF CYTOTOXIC NEOLIGNANS FROM Saururus cernuus L. (SAURURACEAE) USING IONIC LIQUID IN THE MICROWAVE ASSISTED EXTRACTION (MAE)

description: In the present work, dried leaves of Saururus cernuus (Saururaceae) were subjected to extraction using an ionic liquid (1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium bromide - BMImBr) in the microwave assisted extraction (MAE). The obtained extract was partitioned using n-hexane and cytotoxicity activity of this organic phase against murine melanoma cell line (B16F10-Nex2) was evaluated in vitro. Since this extract displayed activity (100% of cell death at 200 µg mL-1) it was subjected to a bioactivity-guided fractionation to afford four related neolignans: threo-austrobailignan-5 (1), threo-austrobailignan-6 (2), threo-dihydroguaiaretic acid (3) and saucernetin (4). Their chemical structures were established based on NMR and MS spectral analysis. Among the isolated neolignans, compound 2 exhibited the highest cytotoxic activity against HeLa (human cervical melanoma) cells with IC50 of 28.3 ± 3.9 µg mL-1 (86 ± 12 µmol L-1). Furthermore, compounds 2 and 3 exhibited the highest cytotoxic activity against A2058 (human melanoma) cells with IC50 of 44.3 ± 4.2 µg mL-1 (135 ± 13 µmol L-1) and 41.5 ± 7.5 µg mL-1 (126 ± 23 µmol L-1), respectively, similar to positive control cisplatin (IC50 = 43.2 ± 3.2 µg mL-1 or 144 ± 11 µmol L-1). Otherwise, compound 4 was inactive (IC50 &gt; 100 µg mL-1 or &gt; 300 µmol L-1). The obtained results provide important data for the selection of bioactive neolignans with promising cytotoxic potential using a simple and fast method employing a green solvent as 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium bromide (BMImBr).

title: Factors associated with undernourishment among people 20 years old or over with HIV/AIDS, attending public health services in the São Paulo municipality, Brazil

description: The study evaluated the nutritional status of 629 people living with HIV/AIDS attended at 12 specialized services of São Paulo's Municipal Health Department, Brazil. Data were obtained from medical records and through interviews during nutritional consultation. We used the classification criteria established by World Health Organization to assess malnourished individuals, a BMI &lt; 18.5kg/m2. The prevalence of malnutrition in people with AIDS is 3.12 times that observed among people with HIV, and among people with co-infection it is 3.41 times that obtained among people without co-infection. This indicates how these conditions can harm the maintenance of the nutritional status, and shows that they demand a comprehensive understanding of the mechanisms involved in this phenomenon, as well as the development of strategies to improve the health care of individuals at nutritional risk.

title: Assessing ethical and social issues of transtelephonic electrocardiography (TTEGG) in Chile

description: The aim of this study was to focus on the ethical and social issues derived from the implementation of transtelephonic electrocardiography (TTECG) in the public healthcare sector in Chile, studying patients and healthcare providers' acceptance and expectations concerning: (a) TTECG effectiveness and safety; and (b) data protection issues, such as confidentiality, privacy and security. For this purpose, we developed two psychosocial surveys; the first was addressed to patients receiving transtelephonic electrocardiogram (either in the emergency services of hospitals or in distant primary care services) and the second one aimed at healthcare providers involved in either administering and/or interpreting it. Results included: (a) major acceptability of TTECG in terms of safety and security; (b) privacy and confidentiality of the patients were considered to be well protected; and (c) the patient-doctor relationship was not affected by this device.

title: Characterization of additives in NR formulations by TLC-IR (UATR)

description: Abstract It is a well-established fact that rubber accelerator is essential to provide solution in different sectors. However, there is a reversal process which can reduce the material performance. Sulfur accelerators donors and organic peroxides have been presented as a solution to the problem. The methodology development that can separate or characterize those components is a challenge and still allows gaps, explained by the application of conventional technique to reach this goal. This study aimed at contributing to the use of off-line coupling of thin layer chromatography (TLC)/infrared spectroscopy (IR) by Universal Attenuated Total Reflection (UATR) for analysis of N-cyclohexyl-2-benzotiazolsulfenamide (CBS), tetraethylthiuram disulfide (TMTD) and dicumyl peroxide (DCP), in natural poly-cis-isoprene (NR) formulations, containing naphthenic oil. The best results were obtained for the plasticizer and DCP, in formulations that had a greater proportion of these compounds. The separation of CBS and TMTD was made with less effectiveness, due to bands overlapping.

title: Evaluation of collagen in dermal wounds of rabbits treated with different sources of platelet-rich plasma

description: ABSTRACT In order to compare the tissue regeneration of dermal wounds in treated and untreated rabbits serially with different sources of platelet rich plasma (PRP) gel, dermal biopsies were made in the dorsal region with the aid of an 8mm punch. The right side was treated with 0.9% NaCl and, on the left side, the different sources of PRPs (autologous, heterologous and homologous) on days 0, 3, 7, 10, 14 were applied and monitored for 17 days. At the end of the 17th day, histopathological evaluation of the wounds was performed. From the total of 24 animals, six rabbits (3 males and 3 females) were used only as donors to obtain the homologous PRP gel. A healthy, adult dog was used as a donor during the experiment to prepare the PRP gel from the heterologous group. The mean values of the fibers of the autologous and homologous groups were very similar (75.0±13.7 and 73.1±10.2, respectively), when compared to the means obtained in the control group (71.5±10.8). The collagen fibers of the heterologous group were inferior (P&lt;0.05) to the other groups (59.4±11.3). It is concluded that the heterologous source produces less organized and homogeneous collagen fibers and should be the last resource to be used in order to promote good quality healing.

title: Use of evaluation by primary healthcare managers: a case study in southern Brazil

description: This article reports on a meta-evaluation, focused on utilization, in a state in southern Brazil. This was a single case study with primary data collection using semi-structured interviews with health department administrators and staff. Content analysis used categories defined in the evaluation matrix: political and organizational context and implementation of evaluation. The political and organizational context revealed weaknesses in the items on experience, evaluation team, and time and space for reflection. Technical autonomy was verified in the State and in one municipality. In the implementation of evaluation, evaluative quality met the established criteria, but there was no prior definition of the uses and users of evaluation. One report referred to use for planning actions and political use. The study concluded that evaluation produced important information for stakeholders, with the political and organizational context as the principal limiting factor for use.

title: Analysis of the effects of climate variables on Apis mellifera pollen foraging performance

description: ABSTRACT Pollination services performed by bees are essential for the reproduction of a great part of flowering plants. The pollen collected by Apis mellifera while performing pollination (bee pollen), has been incorporated into the human diet for its favorable nutritional components. Around 1,500 tons of bee pollen are produced annually worldwide, especially in Spain, China, Australia, Argentina, and Brazil. Despite the importance of bee pollen within apiculture, little is known about the effects of climate variations on bee pollen collection and production. We monitored the pollen collection performance of 24 different honey bee colonies in different climate conditions within a period of one year. We then analyzed the statistical interaction among the number of worker bees returning with pollen loads and 12 climatic variables, to produce a predictive mixed linear model. The results obtained showed that 7 climatic variables were statistically correlated to the pollen collection observed: Maximum temperature of the day, minimum temperature of the day, dew point temperature, relative humidity, cloud cover, rainfall, and the date of the sample. This research brings information for the development of a more effective pollen productive system.

title: Professional Education and the Reform of High School: law nº 13.415/2017

description: ABSTRACT This text has the purpose of problematizing Law nº 13.415/2017 (Brasil, 2017b) in the sense of understand it as a reverse of professional education policies. It refers to a documentary analysis that made it possible to understand that, historically, the policies for a professional education have been subjugating this formation to the absurdities of the labor market, subjecting itself to capitalist modes of production. Thus, the current law did not contribute to valorization of technical education, nor favored policies of teacher training for this type of teaching. The opposite, it has induced the notorious knowledge that it is a way of guaranteeing professionals, not teachers, regents of classrooms in professional technical high school education.

title: ‘Are They Really Indians?’: indigenous representations in the classroom

description: ABSTRACT For the purpose of verifying the implementation of the Law 11.645/08, which indicates the obligation of teaching indigenous history and cultures in the classroom, the authors introduce the study developed on indigenous representations by students of the final grades of elementary school in municipalities with different levels of contact with the Tapuios do Carretão community, in the state of Goiás, Brazil. It was made a comparative approach, since the study of the imaginary, about native people in Brazil, points to two mismatched conceptions about the indigenous in the national consciousness, based on the proximity and the distance between the non-indigenous society and indigenous people.

title: Bovine Herpes virus type 1 (BoHV-1): Diagnosis method and its influence on spermatic quality in experimentally infected bulls

description: ABSTRACT Bovine Herpesvirus type-1 (BoHV-1) is a virus widely distributed in Brazil and worldwide, with a growing number of studies involving diagnostic methods and their impact on animal reproduction. The objective of this work was to identify the genetic material of BoHV-1 in the semen of experimentally infected bulls through the PCR technique, and to evaluate the influence of the virus on the sperm quality of these animals. The PCR technique was satisfactory, allowing for the identification of the presence of the genetic material of the virus in the semen of all the animals from 7 days post infection, with persistence of 21 to 28 days. Despite the presence of the BoHV-1 virus over a long period in the semen of the experimental animals, no deleterious effects were observed on the quality of either fresh semen or semen after the cryopreservation.
