Foglio 027 Bolzano. Studio petrografico delle vulcaniti permiane del settore Val di Tires – Passo Nigra, Alta Val d’Ega, Bolzano

Il presente lavoro di tesi si inquadra nel programma di rilevamento geologico del Foglio 027 Bolzano, nell’area della Val di Tires – Passo Nigra, Alta Val d’Ega (Bolzano), la cui realizzazione è in corso a cura della Provincia Autonoma di Bolzano, nell’ambito del progetto CARG. Durante la campagna di rilevamento sono stati prelevati 33 campioni presso Tires, in Alta Val d’Ega, appartenenti alle vulcaniti permiane del Gruppo Vulcanico Atesino (GVA), 18 dei quali sono stati sottoposti ad analisi ottico-petrografica e chimica in XRF. I campioni sono stati prelevati dalle tre principali formazioni geologiche affioranti nell’area: la Formazione di Gargazzone (IGG), la Formazione di Cornedo (COR) e la Formazione di Ora (ORA). Dalle analisi è emerso che i campioni prelevati dalla Formazione di Gargazzone risultano di composizione riodacitica, quelli della Formazione di Cornedo hanno composizione andesitica e andesitico-dacitica, quelli della Formazione di Ora hanno composizione riolitica e riodacitica. Sono state distinte tre litofacies all’interno della Formazione di Ora: una litofacies basale, caratterizzata da un’elevata concentrazione di componenti litiche; una litofacies intermedia, decisamente più massiccia ed omogenea, che presenta al suo interno sporadici corpi lenticolari di ignimbriti ricche in pomici; una litofacies di tetto, ricca in pomici. Generalmente le ignimbriti della Formazione di Ora si caratterizzano per la composizione riolitica ricca in sanidino, ma la presenza di ignimbriti di composizione riodacitica all’interno della formazione e precisamente nell’area di studio, si può imputare alla modificazione della composizione mineralogica e chimica originaria a causa dei fenomeni metasomatici, particolarmente intensi lungo il bordo calderico. Sono stati inoltre prelevati cinque campioni che tagliano le formazioni affioranti, due dei quali hanno composizione riolitica, due hanno composizione basaltica e uno ha composizione alcali-basaltica.

Antropometria de idosos residentes no município de Joinville-SC, Brasil

Objetivo: Fornecer dados antropométricos de idosos residentes na área urbana do município de Joinville, SC. Metodologia: Foram analisados 218 idosos com idade igual ou superior a 60 anos, de ambos os sexos, não institucionalizados e residentes na área urbana da cidade de Joinville-SC, no ano de 2002. Os idosos foram apresentados segundo sexo e grupo etário: 60-69 anos, 70-79 anos e 80 e mais. As variáveis antropométricas foram apresentadas sob a forma de média, desvio-padrão e percentil (P5, P10, P25, P50, P75, P90 e P95). Resultados: Dos 218 idosos, 130 (59,6%) foram mulheres e 88 (40,4%) homens. Apesar de os valores médios da maioria das variáveis investigadas sugerirem uma tendência a diminuir com o aumento da idade, não houve diferença estatisticamente significativa dos valores médios entre os grupos etários para ambos os sexos (p>0,05). Quando comparados por sexo, os valores médios de IMC, CQ e DCT das mulheres foram significativamente superiores aos dos homens. Estes, em contrapartida, apresentaram valor médio da CC significativamente superior ao das mulheres (p<0,05). Conclusão: A maioria dos estudos realizados com idosos em outros países tem investigado esta categoria considerando pessoas com idade igual ou superior a 65 anos, o que dificulta a comparação com os dados brasileiros. Somado a outros estudos realizados com idosos no Brasil, os dados obtidos neste estudo podem contribuir para a construção de um padrão antropométrico da população idosa brasileira, ainda inexistente no país

Interaction of zinc(II) with the cyclic octapeptides, cyclo[Ile(Oxn)-D-Val(Thz)](2) and ascidiacyclamide, a cyclic peptide from Lissoclinum patella

The interactions between zinc salts and the naturally occurring cyclic octapeptide ascidiacyclamide in methanol, as well as a synthetic analogue cyclo[Ile(Oxn)-D-Val(Thz)](2), were monitored by H-1 NMR and CD spectroscopy. Three zinc complexes were identified, their relative amounts depending on the nature of the anion (perchlorate, triflate or chloride) and the presence or absence of base. Binding constants for two of the zinc species were calculated from CD or H-1 NMR spectra, [Zn(L - H)](+) (KZn(L-H) = [Zn(L - H)(+)]/[Zn2+][(L - H)(-)] = 10(7 +/- 2) M-1; 95% methanol/5% water, 298.0 K, NEt3/HClO4 buffer 0.04 M) and [ZnLCl](+) (K-ZnCIL = [ZnCIL+]/[Zn2+][Cl-][L] = 10(7.2) (+/-) (0.1) M-2; d(3)-methanol, 301 K).

Trends in stroke incidence, mortality and case fatality rates in Joinville, Brazil: 1995-2006

Background: Studying stroke rates in a whole community is a rational way to assess the quality of patient care and primary prevention. However, there are few studies of trends in stroke rates worldwide and none in Brazil. Objective: Established study methods were used to define the rates for first ever stroke in a defined population in Brazil compared with similar data obtained and published in 1995. Methods: All stroke cases occurring in the city of Joinville during 2005-2006 were prospectively ascertained. Crude incidence and mortality rates were determined, and age adjusted rates and 30 day case fatality were calculated and compared with the 1995 data. Results: Of the 1323 stroke cases registered, 759 were first ever strokes. The incidence rate per 100 000 was 105.4 (95% CI 98.0 to 113.2), mortality rate was 23.9 (95% CI 20.4 to 27.8) and the 30 day case fatality was 19.1%. Compared with the 1995 data, we found that the incidence had decreased by 27%, mortality decreased by 37% and the 30 day case fatality decreased by 28%. Conclusions: Using defined criteria we showed that in an industrial southern Brazilian city, stroke rates are similar to those from developed countries. A significant decrease in stroke rates over the past decade was also found, suggesting an improvement in primary prevention and inpatient care of stroke patients in Joinville.

Incidence of stroke subtypes, prognosis and prevalence of risk factors in Joinville, Brazil: a 2 year community based study

Background: There have been few population based studies on stroke risk factors and prognosis conducted in Brazil. The objective of this study was to evaluate, over a 2 year period, the incidence of the subtypes of first ever stroke, the prevalence of cardiovascular risk factors and functional prognosis in a city located in the south of Brazil. Methods: The period from January 2005 to December 2006 was evaluated prospectively by compiling data on first ever stroke cases, medications used prior to the morbidity and the incidence of traditional risk factors. The annual incidence was adjusted for age using the direct method. Patients were monitored for at least 6 months following the event. Results: Of 1323 stroke cases, 759 were first ever stroke cases. Of these, 610 were classified as infarctions, 94 as intracerebral haemorrhage and 55 as subarachnoid haemorrhage. The crude incidence rate per 100 000 inhabitants was 61.8 for infarction (95% CI 57.0 to 66.9), 9.5 for intracerebral haemorrhage (95% CI 7.7 to 11.6) and 5.6 for subarachnoid haemorrhage (95% CI 4.2 to 7.3). The 30 day case fatality was 19.1%. The most prevalent cardiovascular risk factor was arterial hypertension. By post-stroke month 6, 25% had died (95% CI 21.4 to 29.1) whereas 61.5% had regained their independence (95% CI 56.2 to 68.3). Conclusions: Case fatality rate, prognosis and incidence adjusted for stroke subtypes were similar to those found in other population based studies. The prevalence rates of ischaemic heart disease, dyslipidaemia, arterial hypertension and diabetes suggest that Joinville presents a mixed pattern of cardiovascular risk, a pattern seen in developed and developing countries alike.

Education Level Explains Differences in Stroke Incidence among City Districts in Joinville, Brazil: A Three-Year Population-Based Study

Background: Current evidence suggests an inverse association between socioeconomic status and stroke incidence. Our aim was to measure the variation in incidence among different city districts (CD) and their association with socioeconomic variables. Methods: We prospectively ascertained all possible stroke cases occurring in the city of Joinville during the period 2005-2007. We determined the incidence for each of the 38 CD, age-adjusted to the population of Joinville. By linear regression analysis, we correlated incidence data with mean years of education (MYE) and mean income per month (MIPM). Results: Of the 1,734 stroke cases registered, 1,034 were first-ever strokes. In the study period, the crude incidence in Joinville was 69.5 per 100,000 (95% confidence interval, 65.3-73.9). The stroke incidence among CD ranged from 37.5 (22.2-64.6) to 151.0 per 100,000 (69.0-286.6). The stroke incidence was inversely correlated with years of education (r = -0.532; p<0.001). MYE and MIPM were strongly related (R = 0.958), resulting in exclusion of MIPM by collinearity. Conclusions: Years of education can explain a wide incidence variation among CD. These results may be useful to guide the allocation of resources in primary prevention policies. Copyright (C) 2011 S. Karger AG, Basel
