title: Viticultural performance of Cabernet Sauvignon clones in highland region of southern Brazil

description: Abstract The Cabernet Sauvignon (CS) cultivar is one of the most widely planted wine grapes in Brazil. The final grape quality depends on the clone type, rootstock, and the terroir. This study aims to assess and characterize the effects of seven combinations of CS clones grafted onto two rootstocks on the physical–chemical parameters and productivity of the grapes in the highland of southern Brazil, during the 2012-2013, 2013-2014, 2014-2015, and 2015-2016 growing seasons. The experiment was carried out in a 14-year-old commercial vineyard, located in São Joaquim municipality, Santa Catarina State, trained on a vertical shoot position system on a double cordon with spur pruning. The treatments consisted in a completely randomized experimental block of the combination (clone/rootstock) of CS 169, 337, 341, and R5 clones grafted onto the Paulsen 1103 (P1103) rootstock, and 169, 170, and 339 clones grafted onto the Courdec 3309 (C3309) rootstock. There were significant differences among the combinations of CS grapes on productivity, physical, and chemical parameters and grape maturation. The data of principal component analysis showed that 339/C3309 and 337/P1103 combinations were the most productive, whereas the R5/P1103, 170/C3309, and 169/C3309 combinations were the best for potential winemaking under the edaphoclimatic conditions of the highlands of southern Brazil in all growing seasons evaluated.

title: The effect of fibrin glue in preventing staple-line leak after sleeve gastrectomy. An experimental study in rats

description: Abstract Purpose To evaluate the effect of fibrin glue on staple-line leak after sleeve gastrectomy. Methods Fourteen adult wistar rats 300 gr were randomized into two groups: Control group (n=7) and study group (n=7). All the rats underwent sleeve gastrectomy using lineer stapler. In the study group, fibrin glue was used to reinforce the staple-line. The rats were sacrificed 7 days after surgery. The stomach was resected, submerged in saline and exposed to excess pressure to obtain a burst pressure value. The gastric staple line was evaluated histopathologically according to the Ehrlich Hunt scale. The results of the two groups were compared. Results The mean Ehrlich-Hunt scores for inflammation, fibroblastic activity and neo-angiogenesis were similar between the groups (p&gt;0.05). Collagen deposition was significantly higher in study group (3.42±0.53) when compared with control group (2.57±0.78) (p=0.035). The mean burst pressure was 137.8±8.5 mmHg for control group and 135.0±8.1 mmHg for study group (p=0.536). Conclusion Reinforcement of the staple-line with fibrin glue has no effect on the burst pressure after sleeve gastrectomy. More studies are needed to evaluate the precautions against leak after sleeve gastrectomy.

title: Weed interference period and economic threshold level of ryegrass in wheat

description: ABSTRACT The study of weed interference periods and the economic threshold level (ETL) of weeds on crops allows the adoption of management methods and the rationalized use of herbicides. The objective of this study was to determine the periods of interference and to test mathematical models to determine the economic threshold level of ryegrass in the wheat crop. Two experiments were carried out in a randomized block design with four replications. The first experiment was conducted in the 2014/2015 agricultural season. The periods of interference and control of ryegrass were studied in wheat. The periods of interference and/or control were: 0, 10, 20, 30, 40, 50 and 120 days after emergence (DAE). The second experiment was conducted in the 2016/2017 agricultural season. The ETLs were studied, being the treatments composed of wheat cultivars and 12 populations of ryegrass, in competition with the respective cultivars. The results allowed concluding that the management methods of weed ryegrass must be adopted in the period between 11 and 21 days after crop emergence, which is described as a critical period of control of this weed. The wheat grain yield loss competing with ryegrass reached 59% when grown with ryegrass. For ETL, the linear regression model of the rectangular hyperbola adequately estimates grain yield losses in the presence of ryegrass. The cultivar presenting the lowest values of ETL, that is, less capacity to live with the weed, was TBIO Alvorada. The other cultivars presented similar ETL values.

title: Peak-end rule and duration neglect: Evidence from an experiment with guests at a seaside resort

description: Abstract The purpose of this study is to observe whether the peak-end rule and duration neglect are checked on guests of a leisure hotel, examining whether clients demonstrate the biases found in the behavioral economics literature. The experiment was conducted with 39 guests from a resort located in Florianopolis, Brazil, during the summer and fall of 2015. The main results revealed that peak-end rule is not fully conﬁrmed, since only the peak was shown to be signiﬁcant in determining overall satisfaction. Regarding the negligence with respect to time, it is conﬁrmed that the duration of the event has no correlation with this ﬁnal evaluation.

title: Ammonia thiosulfate in Japanese plum tree thinning

description: Abstract In order to test the use of ammonia thiosulfate (ATS) in the chemical thinning of the Japanese plum tree, a field experiment was conducted throughout the 2015/2016 and 2016/2017 crop growing seasons at Ponta Grossa, PR, Brazil. The experimental design adopted herein was a randomized block design (RBD). During the 2015/2016 season, the trial was comprised of two accesses and six treatments, such as T1 (control); T2 (ATS 4%); T3 (ATS 5%); T4 (ATS 6%); T5 (ATS 7%) and T6 (manual thinning) with four replications. During the 2016/2017 season, solely one plum tree access was taken into account along with six treatments, such as T1 (control); T2 (ATS 6%); T3 (ATS 7%); T4 (ATS 8%); T5 (ATS 9%) and T6 (manual thinning) and four replications. The evaluations were performed seven days before the application of ATS and 30 days before harvest to establish the percentage of fruit drop. The following response variables were assessed: diameter (D), fresh mass (MF), firmness (N), soluble solids (SS), titratable acidity (AT), ratio, pH and plant production (PP). Experimental data were compared by means of the Tukey test at 5% probability. The concentration of 8 % ATS was efficient in the chemical thinning of the Japanese plum fruits, having a diameter and productivity similar to the manual thinning, evidencing that such a product was amenable to enhance commercial fruit quality.

title: Mitigating effect of tanshinone IIA on ventricular remodeling in rats with pressure overload-induced heart failure

description: Abstract Purpose To investigate the effect of tanshinone IIA (TIIA) on ventricular remodeling in rats with pressure overload-induced heart failure. Methods Pressure overload-induced heart failure model (abdominal aortic coarctation) was established in 40 rats, which were divided into model and 5, 10 and 20 mg/kg TIIA groups. Ten rats receiving laparotomy excepting abdominal aortic coarctation were enrolled in sham-operated group. The 5, 10 and 20 mg/kg TIIA groups were treated with 5, 10 and 20 mg/kg TIIA, respectively, for 8 weeks. Results Compared with model group, in 20 mg/kg TIIA group the left ventricular ejection fraction, left ventricular fractional shortening, left ventricular systolic pressure, ±maximum left ventricular pressure rising and dropping rate, and myocardial B-cell lymphoma-2 and cleaved cysteinyl aspartate specific proteinase-3 protein levels were increased, respectively (P&lt;0.05), and the left ventricular end diastolic diameter, left ventricular end systolic diameter, left ventricular end diastolic pressure, heart weight index, left ventricular weight index, serum B-type brain natriuretic peptide, interleukin 6 and C-reactive protein levels and myocardial B-cell lymphoma-2 associated X protein level were decreased, respectively (P&lt;0.05). Conclusion TIIA may alleviate ventricular remodeling in rats with pressure overload-induced heart failure heart by reducing inflammatory response and cardiomyocyte apoptosis.

title: Thermographic assessment of saddles used in Mangalarga Marchador horses

description: ABSTRACT Poor saddle-fitting is one of the main causes of back pain in horses. Mangalarga Marchador is a popular breed in Brazil, being used mainly for pleasure riding and sports. This study aimed to thermographically assess saddles used in horses of this breed. Thermographic images were obtained from 18 saddles of animals from different categories during a Mangalarga Marchador National Exposition. The evaluation was based on three parameters: contact area symmetry, dorsal midline interaction and total skin contact area (25%, 50%, 75% or 100%). Contact area asymmetry was observed in 83.3% of saddles. Dorsal midline interaction was observed with the same frequency. Only 22.2% of saddles assessed in the present study had panels with contact areas greater than 50%. Based on the results of this essay it can be concluded that thermography is a useful tool for the evaluation of saddle contact area with the back of horses and that there is a high frequency of fitting unconformities in saddles used in Mangalarga Marchador horses.

title: TO INHABIT OCCUPIED MANSIONS IN THE HISTORICAL CENTER OF SALVADOR, BAHIA, BRAZIL: old collective houses and new experiences and rights

description: The objective of this article is to describe, analyze and reflect about a modality of housing that has been gradually gaining quantitative and qualitative importance in the city of Salvador (Bahia, Brazil) and in its historical center (CHS). These are the occupations of old houses and buildings by poor people, linked to the homeless movements. The ethnographic field work carried out with six occupations allowed me to arrive at some conclusions that I present in this work: 1) that some occupations are an updated version of the old “cortiços” of CHS, with problems that aggravate their situation even more; 2) that most of them are essays on a new way of living which represents a rich experience of self-management and female leadership; 3) that centrality is an essential value for precarious and vulnerable workers who have been living in the center of the city since the nineteenth century, a value that is now being claimed in discourses and / or practices such as the right to centrality.

title: Thrips species associated with varieties of the native cerrado fruit tree Hancornia speciosa

description: Abstract Studies of insects associated with the fruit tree Hancornia speciosa Gomes (Apocynaceae), a native of the Brazilian Cerrado popularly known as “mangabeira”, are generally restricted to reports from seedling nurseries. Thrips predominate among insects that attack this crop. This study investigated the species of Thysanoptera that use this native fruit as a host, and which variety they prefer. The H. speciosa varieties speciosa s.str., cuyabensis, gardneri and pubescens were obtained from the collections of the ex-situ germplasm bank of native species at the Escola de Agronomia, Universidade Federal de Goiás, Goiânia, Brazil. Evaluations were conducted from January through December 2016. A total of 1679 individual thrips were identified. Thrips were most abundant on pubescens (79.08%), followed by gardneri (15.02%), cuyabensis (4.71%), and speciosa (1.19%). Representatives of the family Thripidae predominated in all collections, especially Coremothrips nubiculus and Heliothrips longisensibilis. The foliar trichomes present in var. pubescens may account for the high abundance of thrips on this variety. Heliothrips longisensibilis is recorded in Brazil for the first time.

title: Evaluation of proposed integrated diseases management strategies in blackberry cultivation according to its sustainability

description: Abstract The production of blackberry in Colombia is a source of income and rural employment in 18 departments; however, the plant is affected by diseases such as gray mold, anthracnose and powdery mildew that can cause losses of up to 70%. The control of these diseases is mainly carried out with chemical fungicides such as benomyl, carbendazim and mancozeb applied every 7 or 15 days. Nevertheless, being a continuous fructification plant of weekly harvest, the proximity between the application of the pesticides, the harvest, and its consumption represents a health risk due to the residually of these molecules, condition that affects its innocuousness and sustainability. Accordingly, this work aimed to develop an integrated management strategy for these diseases. Two strategies were proposed integrating agricultural labors with applications of Tricotec®-Kendal® or Tricotec®-EcoSwing®, and three fungicides applied according to the incidence of each disease, compared with the diseases producer management. In 77 evaluation days the effectiveness of the strategies was assessed according diseases incidence reduction, on fruit production, environmental impact, using the environmental impact quotient in the field (EIQf), and the reduction of fruit pesticides residues. According to the results obtained, the strategy Tricotec®-Kendal® with applications of a fungicide based on azoxystrobin + difeconazole showed the lowest diseases incidence, averaging 3% for gray mold, 11% for anthracnose, and 21% for powdery mildew and the highest amount of fruit harvested averaging 5,668 g. The strategy showed the lowest EIQf (5.3) compared with a value of 81.50 obtained with the traditional producer management, as well as the least amount of pesticides residues, corresponding to azoxystrobin (0.10 mg/kg) and difeconazole (0.046 mg/kg); these, however, remained within the maximum residue limits for pesticides stated by the European Union for blackberry.

title: THE LABOR REFORM AND ITS IMPLICATIONS FOR THE NORTHEAST: first reflections

description: Motivated by the affirmation of the need of “modernizing” the labor relations in Brazil, the implementation of the Labor Reform in November 2017 meant a profound change in the paradigm of the labor regulation in Brazil. This article aims to analyze the effects of the Reform in the Northeast Brazil, just over a year after its implementation. In particular, it seeks to observe the extent to which this pattern of regulation has exacerbated social inequalities. Therefore, the focus of the study lies in three economic sectors of two states and their respective labor unions: in Paraíba, we approach the construction sector and, in Pernambuco, the automotive industry and the information technology segment. For the research, it was used data from PNADC/IBGE, RAIS, CAGED, Mediator/MTE, and questionnaires and interviews collected in a survey of the Network of Studies and Interdisciplinary Monitoring of Labor Reform (REMIR).

title: Analysis of the relationship between company characteristics and key audit matters disclosed

description: ABSTRACT The general objective of this study is to analyze whether the particularities of audited companies influence the volume of key audit matters (KAMs). Its specific objectives are to identify the number of KAMs disclosed by Brazilian companies and analyze the main factors associated with their disclosure. The paper aims to contribute to an area of investigation still lacking in studies that analyze the factors affecting KAM disclosure, which makes audit reports more individualized. The study contributes to understanding the main auditing issues in Brazilian companies that auditors consider relevant, by providing evidence on factors associated with their disclosure. This research is relevant for agencies that issue auditing standards and for financial information users. For issuers of auditing standards, the study is relevant because it identifies the factors associated with KAM disclosure, enabling it to be confirmed that the new audit report model has contributed to its destandardization. For financial information users, the study demonstrates that KAM disclosure varies from company to company, thus contributing to greater transparency of the audit report. Data were collected from the Audit Reports and Consolidated Financial Statements of the 447 Brazilian companies listed on the São Paulo Securities, Commodities, and Futures Exchange (BM&FBovespa), on December 31st of 2016, and an ordinary least squares (OLS) regression was applied to the defined model. The results show a positive relationship between the number of KAMs disclosed and both the auditor being a Big 4 and the complexity of the audited company. The auditor’s fees and auditor’s opinion being modified show a negative relationship with the number of KAMs. The article is relevant for companies, auditors, and regulatory and supervisory bodies as it identifies company characteristics that influence KAM disclosure and are determinants for the non-standardization of the auditor’s report.
