A idade ao primeiro parto em novilhas da raça Nelore é um importante índice a ser considerado na produtividade da pecuária de corte brasileira. Atualmente o gado Nelore é o mais difundido no Brasil, sendo considerado a principal raça de corte criada no país. O objetivo desta revisão foi comparar as informações sobre a característica reprodutiva tardia do gado Nelore com os recentes estudos sobre a antecipação da puberdade com o auxílio do manejo nutricional adequado, visando o aumento da produtividade. Foram utilizados basicamente três trabalhos, sendo um experimento realizado no Brasil, um trabalho apresentado por pesquisadores dos EUA e um artigo escrito pelo Dr. Guilherme de Paula Nogueira; além de artigos selecionados através dos seguintes descritores e boleadores: (Nelore OR Bos indicus) AND (Heifers OR Puberty) AND (Nutrition) AND (Economy). Dentre os 8 estudos obtidos, foram selecionadas 2 publicações em inglês datadas de 1991 e 2003. Mesmo a literatura sendo escassa neste assunto e em alguns aspectos contraditória, principalmente tratando-se da questão da viabilidade econômica da parição antecipada na pecuária de corte, pode-se concluir que a antecipação da puberdade depende de vários fatores tais como a genética, interação ambiental, nutrição, escore de condição corporal (ECC) e manejo. Além disso, mais pesquisas são necessárias e devem considerar a relação econômica da antecipação da puberdade em novilhas da raça Nelore dentro da bovinocultura de corte no Brasil

Inflammatory fibroid polyp (IFP) is a benign uncommon lesion (1%-4% of gastric benign lesions), originated from the submucosa of the gastrointestinal tract. Its origin is controversial and immunohistochemical studies of lesions have largely refuted the possible vascular, neural or smooth muscle origin. Recent studies suggest a neoplastic etiology due to a mutation, in some cases, in the alpha-type platelet-derived growth factor receptor gene (PDGFRa). Our objective is to report the case of a patient aged 70 years, with gastric IFP, comparing her immunohistochemical profile with those of other studies, and a brief review of the literature.

Dexamethasone is a synthetic glucocorticoid widely used to treat allergic and inflammatory processes. This drug is used in three main situations, are used to contain acute or chronic inflammatory processes, or like immunosuppressive drug's. In these cases the patient will receive high doses for a chronic period and, therefore, has a much greater chance of adverse side effects, such as hypertension, diabetes and dyslipidemia. Dexamethasone promotes deleterious effects on the arachidonic acid pathway, when administered in high doses, because it is a potent anti-inflammatory drug. We recently demonstrated that dexamethasone significantly reduces the protein expression of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) in both skeletal muscle and heart, but the mechanisms involved remain unclear. Meanwhile, exercise has been shown to be effective against high blood pressure, diabetes and dyslipidemia, promoting, among other factors, the increase in VEGF and angiogenesis. One possible explanation for these effects would be the creation of new vessels mediated by inflammation, or by the stimulation of the formation of products of the metabolism of arachidonic acid (AA), such as prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) and VEGF, by increasing the stimulation of the enzymes cyclooxygenase 1 and 2 (COX-1 and COX-2). Little is known about the preventive effects of training on the action of dexamethasone in the arachidonic acid pathway. Therefore, the aim of this study was to determine whether aerobic exercise training, performed before and concomitant treatment with dexamethasone, was able to prevent the effects of the dexamethasone in the protein expression of COX-2 and VEGF. For this, we used young Wistar rats (n = 40) which were randomly divided into 4 groups: sedentary control (SC), sedentary and treated with dexamethasone (SD), trained control (TC) and trained and treated with dexamethasone (TD). These rats performed aerobic exercise training, 60% of maximum capacity, 5

Introduction: much studies regarding risk factors associated with oral cancer. Factors such as smoking and alcohol and solar radiation are well established, but others, such as bacterial influence in the development or progression of a tumor still remain unexplained. Interest in the possible relationship between bacteria and different stages of cancer development has increased since the classification of H. pylori by the WHO as a definite carcinogen. Subsequently, links between infection and the onset of cancer in various sites in the body were discovered. Review of literature: this literature review attempts to show the influence of poor oral hygiene, with consequent bacterial accumulation as a possible important risk factor for the initiation and development of mouth cancer, and correlate the possible mechanisms by which bacteria can initiate or promote carcinogenesis. Conclusion: there is much evidence that bacteria in the oral cavity and periodontopathic are present in tumor tissue, however, still can not affirm that these bacteria initiate or promote carcinogenesis.
