This essay compares social mobility patterns in Brazil over time as well as with other industrialized countries (England, France, West Germany, Hungary, Ireland, Northern Ireland, Poland, Scotland, Sweden, United States, and Japan). Such comparisons are made possible by the classification of Brazilian data into seven social classes widely used in comparative stratified research. Mobility patterns are described in both absolute and relative terms. Absolute mobility rates indicate that the Brazilian ...

As mango leaf tea contains mangiferin and other bioactive compounds, this study investigated its anti-inflammatory, antioxidant and hepatoprotective effects on rats with high-fat induced obesity. Three groups were established: a control group (AIN93M diet), an obese group (high-fat diet HFD) and a treatment group (HFD with mango leaf tea for 8 weeks). Mango leaf tea increased antioxidant enzymes, total antioxidant capacity, AdipoR2 and PPAR-α mRNA and proteins expressions and, it also inhibited the ...

Quinoa is a pseudocereal that has high protein quality and sorghum has phenolic compounds that give it a higher antioxidant capacity, however, its protein quality is low. Thus, this study aimed to evaluate the effect of the obtaining mixture of sorghum and quinoa flours on protein quality and antioxidant capacity in Wistar rats. The animals were allocated into five groups (n = 8): protein-free, control (casein) and experimental groups: sorghum flour, quinoa flour, and mixed sorghum/quinoa flour. At ...

Thus, the present study evaluated the effect of chia on calcium bioavailability, inflammation, and oxidative stress in Wistar rats fed a high-fat diet or standard diet for 35 days. Chia consumption resulted in lower calcium balance and calcium absorption and retention rates. In addition, the urinary calcium concentration was lower in groups that were fed chia. ...

Extracts of 32 medicinal plants used popularly for their presumed diuretic and/or antihypertensive properties were tested for diuretic effects in conscious unrestrained rats. Extracts were made using aqueous ethanol (50:50, v/v) at 4–10°C. When given orally at a dose of 40 ml/kg, a majority of the ethanol-free extracts produced a more pronounced diuresis than would be expected from the potassium concentration of the extracts. The most significant diuretic effect was observed with Hedychium coronarium ...
