Brazil has one of the largest prison populations globally, with over 682,000 imprisoned people. Prison health is a public health emergency as it presents increasingly aggravating disease rates, mainly sexually transmitted infections (STI). And this problem already affects both developed and developing nations. Therefore, when thinking about intervention strategies to improve this scenario in Brazil, the course "Health Care for People Deprived of Freedom" (ASPPL), aimed at prison health, was developed. ...

Abstract Soybean rust in Brazil is currently controlled with several commercial fungicide premixes composed of demethylation inhibitors (EPOXiconazole, CYPRoconazole, PROThioconazole, TEBUconazole), quinone‐outside inhibitors (AZOXystrobin, TriFLoXystrobin, PYRAclostrobin, PICOxystrobin), and succinate demethylation inhibitors (BENZovindiflupyr, BIXaFen, FLUXapyroxad). Here, we summarize the performance of eight premixes evaluated in 177 cooperative trials conducted in 46 locations across 10 states ...

The sequence method is an important approach to assess the baroreflex function, mainly because it is based on the spontaneous fluctuations of beat-by-beat arterial pressure (for example, systolic arterial pressure or SAP) and pulse interval (PI). However, some studies revealed that the baroreflex effectiveness index (BEI), calculated through the sequence method, shows an intriguing oscillatory pattern as function of the delay between SAP and PI. It has been hypothesized that this pattern is related ...

Land-use change (LUC) from native vegetation to feedstock production is the main responsible for the losses of carbon (C) from soil organic matter (SOM) to atmosphere. We evaluated different land-uses common in the Cerrado with potential to restore SOM levels. We sampled soil (0.0–0.1; 0.1–0.2; 0.2–0.3; 0.3–0.4 m) from sites located in the municipality of Uruçuí (Piauí State, Northeast region of Brazil). Land-uses evaluated were: i) native vegetation (NV); ii) no-tillage over six years (NT6); iii) no-tillage ...

No Brasil-Império o ensino das Ciências Naturais era incipiente, embora ciências já fizessem parte do currículo do ensino secundário desde a criação do Colégio Pedro II, em 1837. Os primeiros cursos de nível superior em Geociências (Geologia, Geofísica, Meteorologia e Oceanografia) começaram a ser criados somente a partir da segunda metade do século passado. Atualmente, há cursos nessas modalidades em todo ...

A região Norte do Brasil é considerada zona endêmica de diversas doenças infectocontagiosas, das quais podemos citar a meningite. A doença possui diversos fatores causais, sendo que a etiologia viral é a mais comum, porém a de origem bacteriana apresenta-se como responsável pela maior taxa de mortalidade. Entretanto, apesar da sua relevância no contexto de saúde pública na região Norte do país, poucos são os estudos publicados sobre a meningite na região. Nesse sentido, foi realizado um estudo transversal ...

The aim of this study was to evaluate the use of biochar (produced by slow pyrolysis of Eucalyptus grandis biomass) as bulking agent for the composting of poultry manure. Three composting mixtures were prepared by the turned-pile system by mixing poultry manure with different organic wastes used as bulking agent (biochar, coffee husk and sawdust) in a proportion of 1:1 (fresh weight). Despite the inert nature of biochar, the composting mixture prepared with biochar underwent an organic matter degradation ...

Patients with multimorbidity have greater healthcare needs, which represents a higher burden on health services.

The author reworks his total current conductivity function introduced in a previous paper, related to electrical polarization of rocks in the frequency range of 1 MHz to 10 −3 Hz. The original five parameters in this function are replaced by new ones, which from the beginning have clear petrophysical and electrochemical meanings and well‐defined ranges of variation. Some classical models are derived as particular cases of it. The main existing models proposed to describe induced polarization (IP) ...

The defect which appears in p-type silicon quenched from 870° to 1070°K is characterized by an ionization energy about 0.4 eV from the valence band, by an activation energy for motion about 0.3 eV, and by a diffusion constant of 1.2×10−7 cm2/sec at room temperature. The principal feature of the defect during room temperature annealing is that it fits into dimension-dependent kinetics. This indicates that the process of elimination of the defect occurs at the surfaces of the samples and that in thicker ...

Abstract Targeting histone deacetylases (HDACs) and phosphatidylinositol 3‐kinases (PI3Ks) is a very promising approach for cancer treatment. This manuscript describes the design, synthesis, in vitro pharmacological profile, and molecular modeling of a novel class of N ‐acylhydrazone (NAH) derivatives that act as HDAC6/8 and PI3Kα dual inhibitors. The surprising selectivity for PI3Kα may be related to differences in the conformation in the active site. Cellular studies showed that these compounds act ...
