Efeitos da metadona ou do neostigmine, associados à lidocaína administrados pela via epidural em cães

Seis cães adultos, de raças e sexos variados, com peso de 13,3±3,4kg (média±DP), foram utilizados no estudo. Os animais foram tranqüilizados com acepromazina (0,1mg/kg, IV) e, após 30 minutos, foram aleatoriamente submetidos à anestesia epidural com um dos seguintes tratamentos: lidocaína 2% 0,25ml/kg (controle); neostigmine 0,01mg/kg+lidocaína (NEO); metadona 0,3mg/kg+lidocaína (MET). Todos os animais foram submetidos aos três tratamentos com intervalo mínimo de uma semana. Foram mensuradas as freqüências cardíaca (FC) e respiratória (FR), a pressão arterial sistólica (PAS), o tempo para a perda do reflexo interdigital, a duração e a altura do bloqueio sensitivo, durante um período de 90 minutos. Não houve diferença significativa entre os tratamentos nos valores de FC, PAS e FR, bem como na duração do bloqueio sensitivo e no tempo para a perda do reflexo interdigital. No grupo MET, houve diminuição de FC dos 30 aos 90 minutos em relação ao valor basal. Bloqueio sensitivo mais cranial também foi observado em MET. A associação de neostigmine ou metadona não prolongou o período hábil de anestesia epidural produzido pela lidocaína em cães. A metadona, mas não o neostigmine, parece estender mais cranialmente o bloqueio epidural pela lidocaína.

Conselhos de saúde: conhecimento sobre as ações de saúde

O Conselho de Saúde - órgão colegiado composto por representantes do governo, profissionais prestadores de serviço da saúde e usuários - atua na formação de estratégias e no controle da execução da política de saúde na instância correspondente, inclusive nos aspectos econômicos e financeiros, e tem suas decisões homologadas pelo chefe do Poder Executivo. Este artigo avalia o perfil dos conselhos municipais de saúde de cinco municípios de pequeno porte do estado de São Paulo, através da análise do conhecimento de seus membros.

HUMAN SYNGAMOSIS - 2 CASES OF CHRONIC COUGH CAUSED BY MAMMOMONOGAMUS-LARYNGEUS

Parasites of the genus Mammomonogamus may occasionally affect the human respiratory tract, causing human syngamosis. We describe two cases of chronic unproductive cough caused by Mammomonogamus laryngeus that occurred in the state of São Paulo, Brazil. Some aspects related to human parasitism, diagnostic approach, and treatment are discussed.

Effects of biofertilizer rates on the structural, morphogenetic and productive characteristics of Piata grass

The objective of this study was to investigate the influence of different levels of biofertilizers from cattle and swine manure on the structural, morphogenetic and productive characteristics of Brachiaria brizantha cv. Piata. The experiment was arranged in a completely randomized factorial design with split plots. The plots were defined by eight treatments: two biofertilizers (cattle and swine), four levels (0, 100, 200 and 300 kg N.ha(-1)) and subplots by four different cutting periods. The cutting for plant uniformity was performed at 45 days after sowing at 15 cm above the soil surface. The biofertilizeres were applied in a single level, after the cutting of plants, in rates of 0, 0.23 and 0.19, 0.45 and 0.38, 0.68 and 0.57 liters pot(-1) for the biofertilizers from cattle and swine manure, respectively. These rates were also equivalent to levels of 0, 100, 200 and 300 kg N.ha(-1). There was no significant difference between the types of biofertilizers as there was no interaction between them and the different levels, hence both biofertilizers could be applied without any loss of nutrient intake by the plants used in this experiment. There was a significant difference between the production of green and dry matter, the leaf appearance rate, phyllochron, leaf and pseudostem elongation rates, number of green leaves, final leaf length, number and weight of tillers, according to the increase of nitrogen rates, following linear prediction model. Effect of the cutting periods was also observed, once the plants harvested during the summer presented greater performance of structural and morphogenetic characteristics.

Phosphorus solubilizing and iaa production activities in plant growth promoting rhizobacteria from brazilian soils under sugarcane cultivation

Plant Growth Promoting Rhizobacteria (PGPR) has been used as a biofertilizer, bringing benefits to agriculture as Phosphorus Solubilizing Bacteria (PSB), indole-acetic acid (IAA) producers, and with other activites. The goal of this report was the identification of PGPR from soils under sugarcane crops by 16S rRNA sequencing, and the evaluation of the ability of phosphorus solubilizing and IAA production by biological assays. The isolates of this work were obtained from three areas of sugarcane crop from São Paulo State, Brazil. All isolates came from rhizosphere soil, and in a total of 60 isolates just 10 have showed high ability in phosphorus solubilizing. The selection of PSB may be done by phenotypic and/or genotypic characterization. Among ten isolates Enterobacter sp. (FJ890899), Entrobacter homaechei subsp. verschuerennii (FJ890998), Burkholderia sp. (FJ890895), and Labrys portucalensis (FJ890891) were able to IAA production. © 2006-2012 Asian Research Publishing Network (ARPN).
