Resposta de ovinos naturalmente infectados por nematoides gastrintestinais em pastos de capim-massai

The aim of this study was to evaluate the crossbred sheep Santa Ines response to natural infections by gastrointestinal nematodes in Panicum maximum cv. pastures Massai at different times of grazing. For this it was used 36 crossbred sheep Santa Inês, divided into four groups and randomly distributed in massai-grass pickets naturally infected by gastrointestinal nematodes. In the period from October 2013 to May 2014, the animals were weekly monitored for hematology tests (packed cell volume) and parasitological (egg counts per gram of feces and fecal culture) in order to monitor the level of infection of sheep and they were assessed for weight, body condition score and staining ocular mucosa by FAMACHA© method. Furthermore infective larvae was recovery from pasture in times of pre-and post-grazing pasture. At 35 kg body weight, the animals were slaughtered and necropsied to collect the contents of the abomasum and small and large intestines to recover the adult parasites, carrying out the count and identification. The animals on pasture with a height of 40 cm pre-grazing obtained low nematode eggs in feces (1608 eggs / g) and 33 cm those in pre-grazing the highest average (2,539 eggs / g). The animals in different groups showed mean values of packed cell volume less than 23% (P> 0.05). Regarding to FAMACHA, the animals belonging to the groups 40 and 50 cm pre-grazing remained over 50% of individuals between FAMACHA 1 and 2 , and those to 33 and 45 cm pre-grazing showed mostly between FAMACHA 3, 4 and 5 (69.06% and 58.93%, respectively). In the culture of larvae in feces and recovery of pasture larvae before and after grazing the following genera were found, in order of prevalence: Haemonchus, Trichostrongylus, Oesophagostomum and Strongyloides. The pasture with 33 cm of pre-grazing provided the highest number of larvae recovered both in the pre and post-grazing (1,081 and 715 L3 / 100 g of green matter, respectively). Among the different groups, the sheep had an average weight of between 23 and 26 kg and variation between the body 1 and 3 scores with scores greater frequency of 1.5 to 2.It can be observed that the animals kept at different times of grazing got different answers on the parasite load. Animals kept in 40 cm pre-grazing expressed a satisfactory answer than the other groups (33, 45 and 50 cm), best supporting the action of endoparasites. Moreover, this same height, was recovered fewer infective larvae on pasture in pre and post-grazing.

O argumento de inclusão enquanto política de acesso à universidade pública

There are a great number of evidences showing that education is extremely important in many economic and social dimensions. In Brazil, education is a right guaranteed by the Federal Constitution; however, in the Brazilian legislation the right to the three stages of basic education: Kindergarten, Elementary and High School is better promoted and supported than the right to education at College level. According to educational census data (INEP, 2009), 78% of all enrolments in College education are in private schools, while the reverse is found in High School: 84% of all matriculations are in public schools, which shows a contradiction in the admission into the universities. The Brazilian scenario presents that public universities receive mostly students who performed better and were prepared in elementary and high school education in private schools, while private universities attend students who received their basic education in public schools, which are characterized as low quality. These facts have led researchers to raise the possible determinants of student performance on standardized tests, such as the Brazilian Vestibular exam, to guide the development of policies aimed at equal access to College education. Seeking inspiration in North American models of affirmative action policies, some Brazilian public universities have suggested rate policies to enable and facilitate the entry of "minorities" (blacks, pardos1, natives, people of low income and public school students) to free College education. At the Federal University of the state Rio Grande do Norte (UFRN), the first incentives for candidates from public schools emerged in 2006, being improved and widespread during the last 7 years. This study aimed to analyse and discuss the Argument of Inclution (AI) - the affirmative action policy that provides additional scoring for students from public schools. From an extensive database, the Ordinary Least Squares (OLS) technique was used as well as a Quantile Regression considering as control the variables of personal, socioeconomic and educational characteristics of the candidates from the Brazilian Vestibular exam 2010 of the Federal University of the state Rio Grande do Norte (UFRN). The results demonstrate the importance of this incentive system, besides the magnitude of other variables

Prevenção da cárie dentária em 2010: a realidade da equipe saúde da família Dr. Rubens Mortimer, Capitão Enéas, Minas Gerais

O presente trabalho teve como objetivo analisar a pouca procura pelo consultório odontológico Dr.Rubens Mortimer, em Capitão em Capitão Enéas, Minas Gerais, para realização da prevenção à cárie dentária no ano de 2010. Este PSF localiza-se na periferia do município e apresenta a maior procura por tratamentos e extrações dentárias. A cultura da população, a baixa renda e a pouca capacitação dos dentistas dificultam as ações de prevenção no consultório. Utilizaram-se, para coleta de dados, os prontuários odontológicos do ano de 2010, as fichas A do SIAB, fichas de produção mensal e cadastros da Unidade de Saúde. Os resultados foram expostos em forma de tabelas, com suas interpretações. Os dados foram analisados e comparados com o SB Brasil, 2003, objetivando confrontar as duas pesquisas para referência visual. Posteriormente foi realizada uma revisão de literatura para construir propostas que possibilitem capacitar os profissionais envolvidos na Estratégia Saúde da Família para desmistificar a grande busca por tratamentos interceptativos em detrimento dos tratamentos preventivos.

A educação popular como um instrumento de educação em saúde em comunidades de baixa renda: uma revisão bibliográfica

A promoção à saúde se constitui como um dos grandes princípios sustentadores da Atenção Primária. Em que pese a sua importância na resolubilidade da assistência e as varias décadas de debate em torno de sua incorporação na práxis assistencial, esta não alcançou relevância nos espaços públicos institucionais. O presente trabalho apresenta uma revisão bibliográfica sobre Educação Popular em Saúde como proposta de efetivação da promoção à saúde em comunidades de baixa renda. Reflete sobre o potencial transformador desta abordagem na tentativa de encontrar soluções para o compartilhamento do saber oficial e popular. Aponta esta estratégia como contraponto ao modelo biologicista e hegemônico na saúde. Descreve seu processo histórico, bem como apresenta as teorias, propostas e experiências desse movimento, focalizando a saúde indissociada das dimensões sociais, culturais e subjetivas, buscando como expressão máxima a emancipação social. Relaciona o apoio social ao movimento.

Estudos sobre Capillaria hepatica: uma avaliação do seu papel patogênico para o homem

Capillaria hepatica é considerado um parasito que excepcionalmente afeta o homem. Levando-se em conta a elevada prevalência desta parasitose em roedores domesticos e as baixas condições de higiene e moradia entre a população de baixa renda, existe a possibilidade de que a capilariase hepatica tenha um papel na patologia humana maior que o comumente admitido. São apresentados neste trabalho dados acerca do parasito, sua biologia e seu papel patogênico, bem como os resultados de estudos experimentais e humanos que revelam aspectos imunopatológicos indicativos de sensibilização e resistência face a esta parasitose.
