A prática de medicina, a organização dos serviços de saúde e o inÃcio do ensino médico no Estado do Pará são apresentados em uma perspectiva cronológica desde os primeiros relatos, após a chegada de Francisco Caldeira Castelo Branco, em 1616, até a fundação da Faculdade de Medicina e Cirurgia do Pará, em 1919. Alguns fatos históricos são destacados e contextualizados, assim como mencionados determinados personagens que tiveram participação efetiva nos acontecimentos relatados. Também são comentados aspectos relacionados ao ensino médico, tanto no âmbito nacional quanto no Estado do Pará, e sua importância para a Região Amazônica e parte do nordeste brasileiro.

O artigo esboça uma biografia de Anna Turan Machado Falcão. Nascida em 1862, em Igarapé Miri, Estado do Pará, foi a primeira médica paraense, formada em 1887, nos Estados Unidos da América. Após retornar ao Brasil e revalidar seu diploma na Faculdade de Medicina da Bahia, exerceu sua profissão no Pará, no Acre e em São Paulo, onde faleceu, em 1940.

We have characterized in vitro and in vivo effects of trypsin inhibitors from Theobroma seeds on the activity of trypsin- and chymotrypsin-like proteins from Lepidopteran pest insects. The action of semipurified trypsin inhibitors from Theobroma was evaluated by the inhibition of bovine trypsin and chymotrypsin activities determined by the hydrolysis of N-Benzoyl-DL-Arginine-p-Nitroanilide (BAPA) and N-Succinyl-Ala-Ala-Pho-Phe p-Nitroanilide (S-(Ala)2ProPhe-pNA). Proteinase inhibitor activities from Theobroma cacao and T. obovatum seeds were the most effective in inhibiting trypsin-like proteins, whereas those from T. obovatum and T. sylvestre were the most efficient against chymotrypsin-like proteins. All larvae midgut extracts showed trypsin-like proteolytic activities, and the putative trypsin inhibitors from Theobroma seeds significantly inhibited purified bovine trypsin. With respect to the influence of Theobroma trypsin inhibitors on intact insects, the inclusion of T. cacao extracts in artificial diets of velvet bean caterpillars (Anticarsia gemmatalis) and sugarcane borer (Diatraea saccharalis) produced a significant increase in the percentage of adult deformation, which is directly related to both the survival rate of the insects and oviposition.

Abstract Background The importance of the lung parenchyma in the pathophysiology of asthma has previously been demonstrated. Considering that nitric oxide synthases (NOS) and arginases compete for the same substrate, it is worthwhile to elucidate the effects of complex NOS-arginase dysfunction in the pathophysiology of asthma, particularly, related to distal lung tissue. We evaluated the effects of arginase and iNOS inhibition on distal lung mechanics and oxidative stress pathway activation in a model of chronic pulmonary allergic inflammation in guinea pigs. Methods Guinea pigs were exposed to repeated ovalbumin inhalations (twice a week for 4 weeks). The animals received 1400 W (an iNOS-specific inhibitor) for 4 days beginning at the last inhalation. Afterwards, the animals were anesthetized and exsanguinated; then, a slice of the distal lung was evaluated by oscillatory mechanics, and an arginase inhibitor (nor-NOHA) or vehicle was infused in a Krebs solution bath. Tissue resistance (Rt) and elastance (Et) were assessed before and after ovalbumin challenge (0.1%), and lung strips were submitted to histopathological studies. Results Ovalbumin-exposed animals presented an increase in the maximal Rt and Et responses after antigen challenge (p<0.001), in the number of iNOS positive cells (p<0.001) and in the expression of arginase 2, 8-isoprostane and NF-kB (p<0.001) in distal lung tissue. The 1400 W administration reduced all these responses (p<0.001) in alveolar septa. Ovalbumin-exposed animals that received nor-NOHA had a reduction of Rt, Et after antigen challenge, iNOS positive cells and 8-isoprostane and NF-kB (p<0.001) in lung tissue. The activity of arginase 2 was reduced only in the groups treated with nor-NOHA (p <0.05). There was a reduction of 8-isoprostane expression in OVA-NOR-W compared to OVA-NOR (p<0.001). Conclusions In this experimental model, increased arginase content and iNOS-positive cells were associated with the constriction of distal lung parenchyma. This functional alteration may be due to a high expression of 8-isoprostane, which had a procontractile effect. The mechanism involved in this response is likely related to the modulation of NF-kB expression, which contributed to the activation of the arginase and iNOS pathways. The association of both inhibitors potentiated the reduction of 8-isoprostane expression in this animal model.

Der Artikel über die Wirkungskategorie des Tragischen leistet einen Überblick über drei Aneignungsstrategien des Tragischen. Nachdem kurz auf Aristoteles Poetik eingegangen wird, diskutiert der erste thematische Block das Tragische als moralischen Impuls. Darin erscheint die aufklärerische Deutung des Tragischen bei Gottsched und Lessing zentral, um einen Bogen zu den ästhetischen Schriften Schillers und Hegels zu schlagen. Im zweiten Teil des Artikels wird auf das Tragische als selbstreflexives Moment eingegangen, wobei hierzu zum einen die barocke Deutung des Tragischen im Trauerspiel besprochen wird, zum anderen aber auch Benjamins Allegorie. Im dritten Teil wird auf das Tragische als anthropologische Konstante eingegangen, wobei genauer auf Nietzsches Geburt der Tragödie eingegangen.

The thesis that entities exist in, at, or in relation to logically possible worlds is criticized. The suggestion that actually nonexistent fictional characters might nevertheless exist in nonactual merely logically possible worlds runs afoul of the most general transworld identity requirements. An influential philosophical argument for the concept of world-relativized existence is examined in Alvin Plantinga’s formal development and explanation of modal semantic relations. Despite proposing an attractive unified semantics of alethic modality, Plantinga’s argument is rejected on formal grounds as supporting materially false actual existence assertions in the case of actually nonexistent objects in the framework of Plantinga’s own underlying classical predicate-quantificational logic.
