title: Anti-Brucella spp. antibodies in working equids in a semiarid region of Northeastern Brazil

description: ABSTRACT: The present study described the prevalence and factors associated with the seropositivity for anti-Brucella spp. antibodies in working equids in the semiarid regionofnortheastern Brazil. Blood samples were collected from 322 equids (76 horses, 155 mules and 91 donkeys). The Rose Bengal plate test (RBPT) was used as a screening method. Samples that were reactive in the RBPT were tested for confirmation using 2-mercaptoethanol (2-ME) and the standard tube agglutination test (STAT). Overall, 7.1% (23/322) of the samples were positive according to the RBPT. After confirmatory tests, the prevalence of brucellosis was found to be 6.5% (21/322). Among these cases, 33.3% (7/21) were horses, 42.8% (9/21) were mules and 23.9% (5/21) were donkeys. In the multivariate analysis, age over 10 years was considered to be a factor associated with the seropositivity (OR: 17.17; 95% CI: 2.582-164.7, P = 0.006) for anti-Brucella spp. antibodies. The significant prevalence of anti-Brucella spp. antibodies found in working equids and the wide distribution of positive animals demonstrates a worrying epidemiological situation regarding brucellosis in the study region. Age over 10 years was a risk factor associated with the seropositivity for anti-Brucella spp. antibodies in animals.

title: COVID-19 impacts on healthcare access in sub-Saharan Africa: an overview

description: Abstract This overview aimed to describe the situation of healthcare access in sub-Saharan Africa, excluding South Africa, during the COVID-19 pandemic. A PubMed® search from March 31, 2020, to August 15, 2022, selected 116 articles. Healthcare access and consequences of COVID-19 were assessed based on comparisons with months before its onset or an identical season in previous years. A general reduction of healthcare delivery, associated with the decline of care quality, and closure of many specialty services were reported. The impact was heterogeneous in space and time, with an increase in urban areas at the beginning of the pandemic (March-June 2020). The return to normalcy was gradual from the 3rd quarter of 2020 until the end of 2021. The impact of COVID-19 on the health system and its use was attributed to (a) conjunctural factors resulting from government actions to mitigate the spread of the epidemic (containment, transportation restrictions, closures of businesses, and places of entertainment or worship); (b) structural factors related to the disruption of public and private facilities and institutions, in particular, the health system; and (c) individual factors linked to the increase in costs, impoverishment of the population, and fear of contamination or stigmatization, which discouraged patients from going to health centers. They have caused considerable socio-economic damage. Several studies emphasized some adaptability of the healthcare offer and resilience of the healthcare system, despite its unpreparedness, which explained a return to normal activities as early as 2022 while the COVID-19 epidemic persisted. There appears to be a strong disproportion between the moderate incidence and severity of COVID-19 in sub-Saharan Africa, and the dramatic impact on healthcare access. Several articles make recommendations for lowering the socioeconomic consequences of future epidemics to ensure better management of health issues.

title: FRAMED STATEMENTS OF “VAGRANT” BODIES: READING OF AN ARCHIVE OF POLICE REPRESSION ON TRAVESTI PROSTITUTION

description: ABSTRACT This article examines a police file on repression of travesti prostitution in the 1970s in the city of São Paulo. The aim is to use police documents to analyze the strategy of having framing bodies to manufacture criminals, in the frame of the penal discourse on the vagrancy misdemeanor. The research corpus is 316 affidavits issued by the Civil Police of São Paulo, criminological texts, laws, and a police manual, gathered through documentary research. A multidisciplinary reference base (linguistic, historical, legal, and philosophical) is the basis for the integrated reading of the corpus materials. The analyses focus on the construction of the penal argument, the instances of enunciation, and the observation of formal elements that point to the criminalization of cross-dressing prostitutes by mobilizing a language apparatus to physically and morally describe their bodies. The discursive strategies are interpreted in this study as technologies of a pastoral power that acts on the circulation of bodies in urban spaces in the context in question, following Michel Foucault’s understanding.

title: Phenotypic and genotypic evaluation of Parkia platycephala families: a proposal for pre-selection

description: Abstract The objective of the study was to determine whether Parkia platycephala families with superior morphophysiological traits perform consistently across four stages of early development (plantlets, seedlings, and juveniles at 34 and 60 months), as a means to assess the possibility of conducting pre-selection. For 21 morphophysiological traits, the following genetic parameters were estimated: heritability, coefficients of variation (genetic, relative, and environmental), accuracy, genetic and phenotypic correlation, percentage of coincidence (PC) of the best families, effective population size, and inbreeding in three progeny tests conducted under laboratory, nursery, and field conditions. Families of P. platycephala showed significant phenotypic and genotypic differences. The traits evaluated show genetic control. The percentage of coincidence between the best families was more accurate when the selection intensity was greater than 50% (PC ≥ 52%). Based on the evaluated traits, a pre-selection strategy at the juvenile stage for P. platycephala was researched to effectively identify superior families.

title: Plastochron, phenology, and production of green pea in different growing seasons

description: ABSTRACT Pisum sativum L. is a multi-purpose crop. The duration of its vegetative and reproductive periods is determined by a combination of temperature and humidity and genotype response to these conditions. To minimize the loss of productivity due to adverse conditions in sensitive periods of the crop, we evaluated the phenological development and production of Pisum sativum L. in different growing seasons. We used a randomized block design, and the experiments were conducted across five growing seasons, with four replications and eight plants per experimental unit. The variables analyzed were as follows: plastochron, number of days to start flowering, full flowering, and beginning of harvest, the accumulated thermal sum to start flowering, full flowering, and beginning of harvest, and the number of pods, pod mass, and total productivity per unit area. The analysis of variance was performed, and the mean values of the data were compared using the Scott-Knott test. Principal component analysis was also performed from Pearson’s correlation matrix of phenological and production variables. In seasons 1, 4, and 5, the plants reached full flowering earlier, and the pod mass was considerably lower, resulting in lower yields. Seasons 2 and 3 were the most productive and showed lower results for plastochron, less thermal sum until full flowering, and a shorter photoperiod, which, combined with low temperatures during the growing season, resulted in a longer cultivation cycle.

title: Development of communication skills in an adolescent with autism, using alternative communication: a case report

description: ABSTRACT Alternative communication has been successfully used in interventions to develop communication skills in children with ASD. However, few studies in Brazil have approached nonverbal adolescents with autism. This article aimed to demonstrate the impact of using an alternative communication system on the development of communication skills in a nonverbal adolescent presented with ASD. This is a single-case study with longitudinal intervention. Skills were assessed with the Communication Assessment in Autism Spectrum Disorder (ACOTEA). There was progress in communicative and behavioral skills. Receptive communications had a greater variation between the first, second, and third applications, increasing from 50% to 66.60% and then 83.30%, followed by social behavior, which increased from 45.80% to 70.80% and then 75%. The use of alternative communication with a robust communication system indicated evidence of the development of communication skills and social behavior in the adolescent with ASD that received the treatment.

title: Data supporting "<strong>The Effect of Haemoglobin and Red Blood Cell Transfusion (RBCT) on Gut Perfusion and Injury in Preterm Infants</strong>"

description: Study design: This prospective observational study recruited preterm infants born at &lt;30 weeks gestation (REC reference: 16/LO/1353). Infants were monitored weekly for gut oxygenation (60 minutes Near Infrared Spectroscopy [NIRS] measurements of splanchnic tissue oxygenation index [sTOI] and tissue injury (stool calprotectin, urine intestinal (I-FABP) and liver (L-FABP) fatty acid binding protein, and trefoil factor 3 (TFF-3)) until 36 weeks post conceptional age or discharge. Haemoglobin was measured along with NIRS and were categorised into three groups: &lt;80g/l (group 1); 80-111.9g/l (group 2) and &gt;120g/l (group 3). NIRS and gut biomarkers evaluated up to 72 hours before or after RBCT were considered as pre and post RBCT measurements respectively. <br> Participants: All preterm infants born at less than 30 weeks gestation admitted to level 3 medical NICU were screened between 18/10/16 and 09/07/18 for eligibility for this study. Infants were excluded if there was Fetal Growth Restriction (FGR), abnormal antenatal dopplers or significant congenital malformations. Eligible infants were recruited by day 7 of life. <br> We initially recruited 50 infants to the study but 2 were excluded the day after the recruitment as Twin to Twin Transfusion Syndrome (TTTS) was seen antenatally which was not known about prior to recruitment. Additionally, parents of two infants withdrew their consent for NIRS measurements and blood sampling after one week but were happy for urine and stool sample collection to continue. Therefore, 48 infants were eligible for inclusion in weekly urine and stool biomarkers measurements and, 46 infants had the complete research measurements of weekly NIRS together with blood samples for Hb level, urine, and stool biomarkers. <br> Data collected: Weekly NIRS measurements (sTOI and sFTOE was calculated from this and the peripheral oxygen saturations which were also recorded during the NIRS measurements: [SaO2 – TOI]/SaO2]) , weekly urine gut biomarkers (I-FABP, L-FABP, TFF-3) and weekly stool gut biomarker (calprotectin). <br> Additional data collected: Infant demographic details including gestational age, sex, birthweight and ethnicity. Volume of enteral feeds each week when NIRS measurements were taken, whether RCBT were given, Hb level at time of weekly NIRS measurements, whether they were being treated for NEC or sepsis and presence of PDA were also recorded. <br> Data file : Effect_Haemoglobin_and_RBCT_on_Gut_Perfusion_17052023.xls Excel file with three sheets: 1.
