Estresse hídrico induzido por soluções de peg e de nacl na germinação de sementes de nabiça e fedegoso

The plants are subject to the conditions of multiple stresses, such as water and salt stress, which limit their development and their chances of survival. Aware of the factors that control seed germination can generate support for management strategies of weed species. The objective of this study was to evaluate the possible effects of water stress caused by PEG and NaCl solutions on germination of wild Raphanus raphanistrum and Senna obtusifolia seeds. The seeding was done with four repetitions of 50 seeds on moistened paper with solutions of polyethylene glycol (PEG 6000) and NaCl at osmotic potentials of 0.0, -0.2, -0.4 and -0.8 MPa. The germination test was conducted at 25 degrees C in the presence of light, evaluating the first test score to seven days after sowing, and weekly, germination (normal seedlings) until 35 days; it was also calculated the index germination rate. The results allowed the conclusion that water stress by PEG causes a greater reduction in force, speed of germination and accumulated germination of seeds of Raphanus raphanistrum and Senna obtusifolia seeds. The Senna obtusifolia was more tolerant to water stress.

Comparação das variáveis hemodinâmicas durante o teste de caminhada de seis minutos e o teste de escada em adultos saudáveis

The effort test can be used to assess functional capacity, clinical hemodynamic and metabolic response at the effort, the risk of postoperative pulmonary complications and to assess the response of patients with lung diseases submitted to physiotherapy treatment. Among the stress tests we highlight the Six Minute Test Walk (6 MWT) and Stair Climbing Test (SCT), because they are easy to use and low cost. Especially the SCT is widely used in patients preoperatively. Objective: To compare the effects of six minute walk test and stair climbing test under the hemodynamic and oxygenation in healthy adults. Methods: We conducted a study with healthy subjects above 50 years. The fi rst performed was 6 MWT in quick step with encouragement, in a plan corridor of 30 meters, where the shade was determined the distance walked in 6 minutes, after 6 MWT was performed de SCT with encouragement, on a ladder in shade, consists of 44 steps, with 4 bids and bid by 11 steps, each step measured 16 cm in a total of 7.04 m of height, where the rise time was clocked. Before and after the two tests were measured respiratory rate, pulse, blood pressure and oxygen saturation. Results: We evaluated 21 patients with age 59.6 ± 5.4 years, 5 men and 16 women. The average distance covered on the 6MWT was 496.4 ± 102.2 meters and the average time in SCT 22.6 ± 5.4 seconds. The variables pulse, respiratory rate, systolic blood pressure and Borg scale presented a signifi - cant increase after the tests, however the variables oxygen saturation and diastolic blood pressure did not change signifi cantly. Conclusion: The variables pulse, respiratory rate, systolic blood pressure and Borg scale tests increased after six-minute walk test and stair climbing test but with greater signifi cance after the stair climbing test. Oxygen saturation and diastolic blood pressure did not change signifi cantly after the tests.

Estresse oxidativo, alterações metabólicas e renais decorrentes da elevada ingestão de sacarose: efeito protetor da N-acetilcisteína (NAC)

Oxidative stress is related with physiopathology of diabetes mellitus type II and with its secondary complications, such as diabetic nephropathy. Thus, the purpose of this study was to examine the effects of n-acetylcysteine NAC, an antioxidant from Allium cepa, on oxidative stress, morphometrical and nutritional parameters and basal metabolism and energetic substrate utilization, serum glucose and oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT), and renal function of high-sucrose intake rats. Animals were initially divided into three groups. Rats in the control group (C; n=10) were given free access to a standard chow and water; (S; n=10) group received standard chow and 30% sucrose in its drinking water; (SN; n=5) group received standard chow and 2g/L NAC and 30% sucrose in its drinking water. After 25 days of treatments, rats were submitted to indirect calorimetry in fasted and feed states. After 30 days of treatments, rats from C and S groups were divided into four groups of five rats each. The (CC) and (SS) groups were given an intra-gastric dose 0,6mL saline (0,9%NaCl) and the (CNAC) and (SNAC) groups were treated with a intra-gastric dose of 0,6mL NAC (160g/day), and then everybody received a intra-gastric dose of glucose solution (20%) for the OGTT. Animals of S and SN groups have higher liquid consumption and lower food consumption than C group. Calorimetric analyses confirm that despite of the final body weight had not statistical difference among groups, S group have lower resting metabolic rate when compared to C and SN animals. Besides, S group has higher respiratory quotient, higher carbohydrate oxidation and lower lipid oxidation, both in fasted and feed states, than C and SN groups, evidencing the beneficial effect of NAC. Fasting plasma glucose is increased in SS and SNAC animals when compared to CC and CNAC, however SN group has glicemic level at 30 min before OGTT decreased when ...(Complete abstract click electronic access below)

Análise dos níveis de motivação e estresse em atletas do campeonato regional de basquetebol feminino sub-21

This descriptive study aimed to investigate what changes of emotional states more sensitive to internal and external influences and to investigate the motivating factors and stressors in basketball players of a Regional Championship of the Interior . Study subjects were 56 (fifty - six) athletes, members of 05 (five) highest ranked teams in the competition. As a measuring tool used the Frester ‟sP sychicLoad Test (1972, apud SAMULSKI, CHAGAS, 1992) . Data analys used descriptive statistics. The findings showed that the facts considered as motivators during the competition were: the audience, the fact of constantly thinking on achieving the desirable aims, and the establishment of very high aims; the stressful factors were: disagreements and conflicts with the coach, partners or family, bad sleeping the night before the competition, excessive nervousness and to be prejudiced by the referees . Therefore, we can conclude: the facts that influence the interest can be of motivating or stressful order , depending on the personal and situational perception; most athletes characterized the competiti ve sport as more stressful than motivating, and this assessment influenced by constant pressure of intrinsic and extrinsic factors that athletes suffers during the competitive environment
