Obesity along with overweight has been considered one of the most serious public health problems in the world, especially because they are the main risk factors for many chronic diseases such as coronary heart disease, type II diabetes mellitus, hypertension and some types of tumors, which are associated with high mortality rates. The use of functional foods and appropriate diets to promote health has grown as a mechanism for prevention, control and treatment of chronic diseases such as obesity. Several ethnopharmacological studies indicate plants species for the treatment of disorders associated with obesity with a major attraction of this regimen is perceived as safer and more effective for health than the traditional treatment with appetite suppressants. Whereas both food intake and the oral treatment with different compounds can cause changes in gene expression and that a proper diet has been valuable as a mechanism for maintaining the body's vital functions, the objective of this project was to evaluate the effects of standardized extract of Brassica campestris L. in the decrease in weight and food intake control. In vivo trials of this product were conducted and studies of its effects on energy metabolism in non-obese mice and with obesity induced by hypercaloric diet. After induction of obesity by 8 weeks, animals were treated for 21 days with the extract orally. After 21 days the animals were killed and the effects of this product were evaluated on the daily feed intake and on body weight. According to the results obtained, the extract of Brassica campestris was not effective in reducing body weight of obese animals, and did not reduce food intake

A utilização de produtos cosméticos que resultem em alisamento ou relaxamento dos cabelos tem-se tornado cada vez mais comum. O desejo das mulheres em possuir um cabelo liso é registrado desde a época de escravidão e, em 1940, foram lançadas formulações contendo hidróxido de sódio para essa finalidade. O alisamento dos cabelos pode ser obtido por processos térmicos ou químicos, onde o primeiro apresenta efeito temporário (até o contato com umidade) e o segundo apresenta efeito definitivo. Por esse motivo, os alisamentos a base de substâncias químicas é chamado de alisamento definitivo. Diversas substâncias foram historicamente utilizadas a fim de obter o efeito alisante, tais como hidróxido de sódio, hidróxido de lítio, hidróxido de guanidina e tioglicolato de amônia. Em comum, estas substâncias agem profundamente na fibra capilar, alterando as ligações químicas da queratina, resultando em uma reestruturação destas ligações. Entretanto, essas substâncias também causam diversos danos a fibra capilar devido ao mecanismo de ação destes produtos. A supervalorização da imagem feminina e a busca incansável pela beleza fizeram com que, cada vez mais, estas substâncias químicas sejam utilizadas de modo indiscriminado e ilegal. O uso irracional dessas substâncias traz conseqüências graves à saúde dos consumidores e profissionais cabeleleiros, tais como dermatites, intoxicações e riscos de carcinogênese. Como exemplo, o uso de formaldeído como agente alisante foi proibido pela Agência Nacional de Vigilância Sanitária Brasileira (ANVISA) desde 2009, assim como sua venda e exposição em estabelecimentos públicos de todo o país, devido ao alto risco apresentado aos consumidores e profissionais. Dessa forma, a pesquisa e o desenvolvimento de produtos alisantes devem ser feita de modo responsável ...(Resumo completo, clicar acesso eletrônico abaixo)

A leishmaniose é um conjunto de doenças infecciosas causadas por parasitas do gênero Leishmania, que afligem milhões de pessoas no mundo, tendo a cada ano dois milhões de novos casos e 70 mil mortes. As drogas utilizadas no tratamento das diferentes formas clínicas da doença apresentam alta toxicidade e baixa eficácia, além de apresentarem muitos efeitos colaterais e colaborarem com o aparecimento de parasitas e vetores resistentes. Devido a estas adversidades, o desenvolvimento de novas terapias para o tratamento desta parasitose é incentivada pela Organização Mundial da Saúde (OMS) e um maior conhecimento sobre a biologia molecular destes protozoários poderá facilitar estas descobertas. Ultimamente, os telômeros, estruturas nucleoproteícas nos terminais dos cromossomos de eucariotos, têm sido alvo intenso de estudos, que visam utilizá-los como alvo terapêutico contra tumores malignos e microrganismos patogênicos. Os telômeros geralmente se apresentam como estruturas dinâmicas onde ocorrem interações entre o DNA e proteínas, resultando na formação do complexo telomérico, que é responsável pela proteção e manutenção dos cromossomos e estabilidade do genoma, caracterizando uma função imprescindível para viabilidade celular. Componentes do complexo telomérico de Leishmania amazonensis foram identificados por ensaios bioquímicos em extratos positivos para a atividade de telomerase. Entre estes componentes identificou-se as proteínas LaRPA-1 (L. amazonensis Replication Protein A-1) e a LaRbp38 (L. amazonensis RNA binding protein) as quais mostraram habilidade de interagir com o DNA telomérico in vitro e in vivo. Mais recentemente, utilizando-se ensaios de imunoprecipitação e de captura por “pull-down” foi demonstrado que estas proteínas fazem parte de um mesmo complexo nos telômeros do parasita. Este trabalho pretende confirmar estas possíveis interações entre as proteínas teloméricas LaRPA-1 e ...

Obesity along with overweight, has been considered one of the most serious public health problems in the world, especially because they are the main risk factors for many chronic diseases, such as coronary heart disease, type II diabetes mellitus, hypertension and some types of tumors, which are associated with high mortality rates. The use of functional foods and appropriate diets to call health promotion has grown as a mechanism for prevention, control and treatment of chronic diseases such as obesity. Several ethnopharmacological studies indicate plant species for the treatment of disorders associated with obesity with a major attraction of this regimen is perceived as safer and more effective health than the traditional treatment with appetite suppressants. This work aims to develop and standardize models of biological assays in stress and obesity, also aims to evaluate the effect of oil green beans of Coffea arabica in the regulation of body weight and energy balance in mice. To this end, trials were made in vivo studies of this product and their effects on energy metabolism in non-obese mice with obesity induced by hypercaloric diet. After induction of obesity by 8 weeks, animals were treated for 21 days with the extracts orally. After 21 days the animals were killed to evaluate the effects of these products on daily feed intake and on body weight. The group treated with the oil of Coffea arabica L. showed significant weight loss and feed intake high. According to the results, we conclude that the standardized extract of Coffea arabica L. decreased body weight without restriction or decrease the amount of food ingested

The obesity along with overweight has been considered one of the most serious public health problems in the world, especially because they are the main risk factors for many chronic diseases such as coronary heart disease, diabetes mellitus, hypertension and some types of tumors, which are associated with high mortality rates. The use of functional foods and appropriate diets to promote health has grown as a prevention mechanism. Previous studies suggested Bidens pilosa L. for the treatment of disorders associated with obesity, with one important attraction of this regiment is perceived as safer and more effective health than the traditional anorexigen .The aim of this project is to standardize a new model of obesity induced by hipercaloric diet in Swiss mice, and also to evaluate the effect of Bidens pilosa L. extract in the reduction of food intake, weight and toxicity. After induction of obesity, the animals were treated for 21 days with the extract. Then the animals were killed and samples were collected for further analysis. Preliminary, the effect of this product has being evaluated on the daily food intake and body weight. In dose of 100mg/Kg, there were no significant changes in food intake and body weight. Thus, this concentration of Bidens pilosa was not effective in reducing body weight of obese animals, and did not reduce food intake

Health promotion seeks to integrate oral health practices to other public health, by building healthy public policy and the development of strategies directed to all people in the community. This study aimed to analyze the knowledge and actions on the infants’ oral health promotion by dentists, pediatricians and nurses. Were interviewed dentists (n=34), pediatricians (n=31) and nurses (n=26) from Basic Health Units, Family Health Units and Centers for Education and Recreation in Araraquara - SP about knowledge and actions on oral health promotion for infants, by filling out a pre-tested questionnaire. Data were analyzed by association tests. Generally, the professionals are aware of and perform actions on oral health promotion for infants. Most participants were female; mean age of 39.9 years, worked in Basic Health Units, had over 10 years of graduation, demonstrated knowledge on and considered oral health promotion in infants very important. The time since graduation and actions on oral health promotion for infants were associated (p<0.05) with issues concerning the use of dental floss. That most of the professionals who participated in this study know about, take actions on oral health promotion for infants and consider them crucial.

The concepts of buccal health promotion and the increase of life expectancy have contributed for the highest maintenance of dental elements. Thus, with the new alimentary and behavioral habits the irreversible loss of dental hard tissue of non-carious origin has increased substantially, being divided in attrition, erosion and abrasion. The dental erosion is a chronic pathology defined as the superficial loss of dental hard tissue as a result of a chemical process not involving bacteria caused by acid that could be intrinsic, extrinsic or unknown etiology, causing irreversible loss of mineral tissue and dentinal hypersensitivity. The aim of this paper is to present a review of literature on the main factors that can cause the injuries of erosion, including the different aspects related to its etiology, classification, diagnosis, prevention and treatment.

The increase of the retentive areas of bacterial plaque can be observed in patients who use dental braces in the mouth. The difficulty of making hygienic is one of the problems that this particular group of patients faces day by day, and consequently, the establishment of gingival inflammation becomes more frequent. The objective of this case report is to show the importance of the periodontist in preventing and promoting health to the users of dental braces, aimed at education and motivation as one of the priorities of this treatment. The ESA patient, 29 years old, male, attended the dental office of a periodontist, sent by the orthodontist, due to the extensive area of gingival hyperplasia and gingivitis, in both arches. The possibility of taking out the dental braces was considered by the orthodontist, but after the periodontist evaluation, this step was procrastinated. Thus, the periodontist started the adequacy of the oral environment together with the work of education and promotion of health, which lasted until the complete recovery of the healthy gingival condition of the patient. In this way, it is possible to observe the relevance of the work of the periodontist in the application of preventive methods in oral health for orthodontic patients. The motivation of these patients in relation to the orientations of buccal hygienic, maintenance of oral health and diet should not be considered as secondary and should be prioritized, because only in this way it would be possible to reach a good occlusion, without esthetic and functional prejudice.
