Saúde Mental Materna e Retenção de Peso no Pós-parto

O objetivo do presente estudo foi investigar a associação entre a depressão pós-parto e a retenção de peso no pós-parto. Trata-se de um estudo longitudinal, com 563 mulheres no baseline acolhidas em unidades de saúde do município do Rio de Janeiro entre 2005 e 2009, acompanhadas até o 6 mês pós-parto, com dados sobre peso e estatura aos 15 dias pós-parto e peso pré-gestacional. O peso retido após o parto foi calculado a partir da diferença entre o peso aferido nas ondas de seguimento (15 dias, 1, 2, 4 e 6 mês) e o peso pré-gestacional. O estado nutricional pré-gestacional foi classificado de acordo com a OMS. A presença de depressão pós-parto foi avaliada a partir da versão em português da Escala de Depressão Pós-parto de Edimburgo (EPDS) aos 15 dias e no 2 mês após o parto, utilizando-se 11/12 da EPDS como ponto de corte. Considerou-se depressão recorrente quando houve presença de depressão nos dois momentos. Inicialmente analisaram-se características da população. Para as análises estatísticas do efeito do estado nutricional pré-gestacional e do efeito da depressão pós-parto sobre a retenção de peso pós-parto empregou-se o proc mixed do pacote estatístico SAS. Dentre os principais achados, destaca-se que 22,7% (IC 95% 19,3-26,4) das mulheres iniciaram a gravidez com sobrepeso e 10,9% (IC 95% 7,0-15,7) apresentaram depressão recorrente. A retenção média de peso foi de 5,6 kg (IC 95% 5,1-6,1) aos 15 dias pós-parto. Na análise das trajetórias no tempo do peso pós-parto por estado nutricional pré-gestacional ajustadas por idade, escolaridade, número de filhos, aleitamento materno e ganho de peso gestacional, observou-se diminuição da retenção de peso pós-parto para os grupos de baixo peso e sobrepeso pré-gestacional e aumento da retenção de peso pós-parto para o grupo de obesidade pré-gestacional. Na análise das trajetórias no tempo do peso pós-parto por depressão pós-parto verifica-se que o efeito entre o tempo e a retenção de peso pós-parto se modifica para mulheres com depressão pós-parto recorrente nas análises bruta e ajustadas por idade, escolaridade, estado nutricional pré-gestacional, número de filhos, ganho de peso gestacional, aleitamento materno e rede social, nas quais observa-se que as mulheres com depressão pós-parto recorrente perdem menos peso. Os resultados permitem identificar que há no pós-parto perda e ganho de peso, apesar de ser esperada perda de peso almejando o retorno ao peso pré-gestacional. Ressalta-se o impacto da depressão pós-parto observado nesta dinâmica de peso, uma vez que mulheres com depressão pós-parto recorrente apresentaram menor perda de peso. Destaca-se a relevância dos resultados deste estudo para o desenvolvimento da promoção da saúde e da segurança alimentar e nutricional, visando um monitoramento do estado nutricional pós-parto e avaliação da saúde mental materna de forma a contribuir para a prevenção da obesidade feminina e comorbidades

冲绳海槽北部PC-1岩芯24 cal.kaBP 以来孢粉记录的古环境信息

东海陆架是世界上最宽阔的陆架之一，面积达770 000 km2左右。在末次冰盛期（LGM），东海海平面下降120～130 m左右，绝大部分陆架暴露出海面。而冲绳海槽是第四纪以来一直保持海洋环境的东海深海区。本文以冲绳海槽北部PC-1岩芯为材料，通过分析该孔的孢粉，加上详细的AMS 14C测年，恢复了周边地区24 cal.kaBP以来的古植被，并推测古环境和古气候变化，重点讨论了LGM时期出露大陆架上发育的植被。 PC-1孔（31°27.5′N，128°24.8′E）位于黑潮支流对马暖流东侧，水深590 m，柱长812 cm。孢粉分析按间隔8 cm取样，个别为4~6 cm，共分析了103个孢粉样品。利用9个AMS 14C数据建立年龄标尺，用Calib5.1.0软件进行年龄校正。通过相邻样品深度的线性内插获得每个样品的年龄，采用外延法得到顶部和底部的校正年龄分别为351cal aBP、24 280 cal aBP，孢粉样品的时间分辨率平均为230 a。 根据孢粉百分比和沉积率的变化，可划分出四个带：Ⅰ带（812～715 cm，24.2～21.1 cal. kaBP）、Ⅱ带（715～451 cm，21.1～15.2 cal. kaBP）、Ⅲ带（451～251 cm，15.2～10.8 cal. kaBP）、Ⅳ带（251～0 cm，10.8～0.3 cal. kaBP），分别对应MIS 3末期、末次冰盛期、冰消期和全新世。末次冰盛期草本植物花粉占优势，孢粉沉积率较高，此时草本花粉主要来源于出露的大陆架，其上发育了以蒿属为主的草地植被，气候比较寒冷干燥；冰消期海平面开始回升，松属花粉含量升高，草本植物花粉含量下降；全新世以木本植物花粉占绝对优势，栗属－栲属花粉迅速增加，蕨类孢子含量升高，草本植物花粉含量锐减，孢粉沉积率降低，由于海平面回升，大陆架被淹没，此时孢粉主要来源于日本岛，九州地区生长了以栲属、栎属为主的常绿阔叶与落叶阔叶林，气候温暖湿润。 叶枝杉属花粉在整个岩芯中零星出现。叶枝杉属植物分布于菲律宾吕宋北部至塔斯马尼亚和新西兰气候潮湿的山地林中，该属花粉在岩芯中的出现，可能暗示了黑潮的影响或者是较强的夏季风。 草本植物与松属花粉百分比变化很好的反映了海平面的升降，松属花粉含量较高指示海平面较高。对岩芯中主要类型的花粉百分比进行了频谱分析，显示存在千年尺度的准周期变化，有明显的6.8，3.8，2.2，1.6 ka的周期。 孢粉样品中的炭屑统计表明，末次冰消期炭屑含量最高，可能因为末次冰消期降雨量增加，炭屑可被降水带到沉积地点沉积下来；全新世的炭屑浓度较高，尤其在晚全新世，出现了一个峰值，究其原因可能与气候变化和人类活动有关。

A habitat-use model to determine essential fish habitat for juvenile brown shrimp (Farfantepenaeus aztecus) in Galveston Bay, Texas

A density prediction model for juvenile brown shrimp (Farfantepenaeus aztecus) was developed by using three bottom types, five salinity zones, and four seasons to quantify patterns of habitat use in Galveston Bay, Texas. Sixteen years of quantitative density data were used. Bottom types were vegetated marsh edge, submerged aquatic vegetation, and shallow nonvegetated bottom. Multiple regression was used to develop density estimates, and the resultant formula was then coupled with a geographical information system (GIS) to provide a spatial mosaic (map) of predicted habitat use. Results indicated that juvenile brown shrimp (<100 mm) selected vegetated habitats in salinities of 15−25 ppt and that seagrasses were selected over marsh edge where they co-occurred. Our results provide a spatially resolved estimate of high-density areas that will help designate essential fish habitat (EFH) in Galveston Bay. In addition, using this modeling technique, we were able to provide an estimate of the overall population of juvenile brown shrimp (<100 mm) in shallow water habitats within the bay of approximately 1.3 billion. Furthermore, the geographic range of the model was assessed by plotting observed (actual) versus expected (model) brown shrimp densities in three other Texas bays. Similar habitat-use patterns were observed in all three bays—each having a coefficient of determination >0.50. These results indicate that this model may have a broader geographic application and is a plausible approach in refining current EFH designations for all Gulf of Mexico estuaries with similar geomorphological and hydrological characteristics.

Application of electron beams in thermal processing of semiconductor materials and devices

Rapid and effective thermal processing methods using electron beams are described in this paper. Heating times ranging from a fraction of a second to several seconds and temperatures up to 1400°C are attainable. Applications such as the annealing of ion implanted material, both without significant dopant diffusion and with highly controlled diffusion of impurities, are described. The technique has been used successfully to activate source/drain regions for fine geometry NMOS transistors. It is shown that electron beams can produce localised heating of semiconductor substrates and a resolution of approximately 1 μm has been achieved. Electron beam heating has been applied to improving the crystalline quality of silicon-on sapphire used in CMOS device fabrication. Silicon layers with defect levels approaching bulk material have been obtained. Finally, the combination of isothermal and selective annealing is shown to have application in recrystallisation of polysilicon films on an insulating layer. The approach provides the opportunity of producing a silicon-on-insulator substrate with improved crystalline quality compared to silicon-on-sapphire at a potentially lower cost. It is suggested that rapid heating methods are expected to provide a real alternative to conventional furnace processing of semiconductor devices in the development of fabrication technology. © 1984 Benn electronics Publications Ltd, Luton.

Apparent abundance of yellowfin and bigeye tuna in the inshore, off shore and near oceanic ranges around Ceylon

Sri Lanka entered oceanic longline fishery in 1967 and have limited the areas of operation to the central equatorial belt, thus limiting their fishery to the yellowfin and bigeye tunas. Sri Lanka while developing her coastal fishery took a leap into oceanic longlining and in view of her programme for accelerated development of the fishing industry, has to fill the gap between the two fisheries by exploiting the intermediate range (off shore and near oceanic) which would chiefly be for tunas and sharks. The present paper has been prepared in this context, utilizing available data and information on the tuna longline fishery in the inshore (approximately 6-15 miles), off shore (approximately 15-100 miles) and near oceanic (approximately 100-300 miles) ranges (Fig, 1).

Molecular phylogenetics and biogeography of Lepus in Eastern Asia based on mitochondrial DNA sequences

In spite of several classification attempts among taxa of the genus Lepus, phylogenetic relationships still remain poorly understood. Here, we present molecular genetic evidence that may resolve some of the current incongruities in the phylogeny of the leporids. The complete mitochondrial cytb, 12S genes, and parts of ND4 and control region fragments were sequenced to examine phylogenetic relationships among Chinese hare taxa and other leporids throughout the World using maximum parsimony, maximum likelihood, and Bayesian phylogenetic reconstruction approaches. Using reconstructed phylogenies, we observed that the Chinese hare is not a single monophyletic group as originally thought. Instead, the data infers that the genus Lepus is monophyletic with three unique species groups: North American, Eurasian, and African. Ancestral area analysis indicated that ancestral Lepus arose in North America and then dispersed into Eurasia via the Bering Land Bridge eventually extending to Africa. Brooks Parsimony analysis showed that dispersal events followed by subsequent speciation have occurred in other geographic areas as well and resulted in the rapid radiation and speciation of Lepus. A Bayesian relaxed molecular clock approach based on the continuous autocorrelation of evolutionary rates along branches estimated the divergence time between the three major groups within Lepus. The genus appears to have arisen approximately 10.76 MYA (+/- 0.86 MYA), with most speciation events occurring during the Pliocene epoch (5.65 +/- 1.15 MYA similar to 1.12 +/- 10.47 MYA).

Effect of furanace on the development of larval stages of Penaeus monodon Fabricius

Zoea 2(Z SUB-2 ) Mysis 1 (M SUB-1 ) and Postlarva 1 (P SUB-1 ) of P. monodon artificially spawned in closed-system concrete hatchery tanks were bioassayed for their tolerance to the antibiotic furanace. The setup consisted of four 20-liter capacity plastic basins previously conditioned for 15 days with freshwater in full sunlight. During the experiment, each basin was filled with 5 liters of seawater to which was added filtered Chaetoceros and Brachionus to give densities of 5 . 0-7 . 5 x 10 SUP-4 cells/ml and 10-20 individuals/ml, respectively. The following are the properties of the water used throughout the experiments: salinity, 26-32%; pH, 7 . 3-8 . 4; temperature, 25-30 degree C; dissolved oxygen, 4 . 5-8 . 4 ppm; nitrite, 0 . 36-0 . 99 ppm; and ammonia, 0 . 10-0 . 30 ppm. To each basin were added 50 healthy larvae of specific stages of P. monodon. After an initial acclimation of one hour in the medium, preweighed amounts of the antibiotic were added and thoroughly dissolved. The concentrations tested were 1 . 0, 2 . 0 and 3 . 0 ppm. One basin always served as control. After 24 hours of exposure, the surviving population in each basin was counted. The survivors were then examined thoroughly under the microscope for unusual behavior and morphological defects brought about by the exposure. To minimize wide variations in the medium as a result of feeding and other manipulations, the systems were all prepared at 9:00 a.m. each time, and the feeds on two instances, one at 5:00 p.m. and another at 5:00 a.m. Fifteen trials conducted with Z SUB-2 showed survival ranges of 68% to 98% with a mean of 77 . 6% in the controls; 32% to 94% with a mean of 65 . 7% at 1 ppm, and 0% to 56% with a mean of 36 . 5% at 2 ppm. There were no survivors at 3 ppm. Interpolation from the survival-dose curve gave a 24-hr LC SUB-50 of approximately 1 . 6 ppm.

Turbulent flow structure in experimental laboratory wind-generated gravity waves

This paper is the third part of a report on systematic measurements and analyses of wind-generated water waves in a laboratory environment. The results of the measurements of the turbulent flow on the water side are presented here, the details of which include the turbulence structure, the correlation functions, and the length and velocity scales. It shows that the mean turbulent velocity profiles are logarithmic, and the flows are hydraulically rough. The friction velocity in the water boundary layer is an order of magnitude smaller than that in the wind boundary layer. The level of turbulence is enhanced immediately beneath the water surface due to micro-breaking, which reflects that the Reynolds shear stress is of the order u *w 2. The vertical velocities of the turbulence are related to the relevant velocity scale at the still-water level. The autocorrelation function in the vertical direction shows features of typical anisotropic turbulence comprising a large range of wavelengths. The ratio between the microscale and macroscale can be expressed as λ/Λ=a Re Λ n, with the exponent n slightly different from -1/2, which is the value when turbulence production and dissipation are in balance. On the basis of the wavelength and turbulent velocity, the free-surface flows in the present experiments fall into the wavy free-surface flow regime. The integral turbulent scale on the water side alone underestimates the degree of disturbance at the free surface. © 2012 Elsevier B.V.

The methane hydrate formation and the resource estimate resulting from free gas migration in seeping seafloor hydrate stability zone

It is a typical multiphase flow process for hydrate formation in seeping seafloor sediments. Free gas can not only be present but also take part in formation of hydrate. The volume fraction of free gas in local pore of hydrate stable zone (HSZ) influences the formation of hydrate in seeping seafloor area, and methane flux determines the abundance and resource of hydrate-bearing reservoirs. In this paper, a multiphase flow model including water (dissolved methane and salt)-free gas hydrate has been established to describe this kind of flow-transfer-reaction process where there exists a large scale of free gas migration and transform in seafloor pore. In the order of three different scenarios, the conversions among permeability, capillary pressure, phase saturations and salinity along with the formation of hydrate have been deducted. Furthermore, the influence of four sorts of free gas saturations and three classes of methane fluxes on hydrate formation and the resource has also been analyzed and compared. Based on the rules drawn from the simulation, and combined information gotten from drills in field, the methane hydrate(MH) formation in Shenhu area of South China Sea has been forecasted. It has been speculated that there may breed a moderate methane flux below this seafloor HSZ. If the flux is about 0.5 kg m-2 a-1, then it will go on to evolve about 2700 ka until the hydrate saturation in pore will arrive its peak (about 75%). Approximately 1.47 109 m3 MH has been reckoned in this marine basin finally, is about 13 times over preliminary estimate.

应用负载型纳米铁去除饮用水中砷的研究

砷是毒性最强的元素之一，水体中砷的污染己经引起人们广泛的关注。我国的新疆、内蒙、山西和台湾等省和地区地下水砷含量严重超标。全球共有5,000多万人遭受高砷饮用水的威胁，其中中国有1,500多万，是饮用水砷污染最严重的国家之一。WHO推荐饮用水砷的最高允许浓度从原来的50 µg•L-1已降至10 µg•L-1。更为严格的砷卫生标准的颁布，对作为饮用水源的地下水中的砷去除工艺提出了更高的要求。吸附法除砷比膜法、混凝法和离子交换法更安全、简便，是砷去除工艺中最有效的方法之一。 首先，本研究通过优化制备条件（包括炭种类的选择、炭的粒径大小、还原剂的浓度及滴定速率、反应温度、铁盐的种类及浓度、分散剂的比例及浓度），制备了负载型纳米铁。考虑到砷的去除效率、工程应用的可行性以及经济性，最优的制备条件如下：选用粒径为20~40目煤质炭，在室温、一定的分散剂比例及浓度，0.2 M KBH4滴速为20 d•min-1时所制备的Fe/炭为82.0 mg•g-1；纳米铁在活性炭孔内呈针状，其直径为30~500 nm，长度为1,000~2,000 nm。绝大多数的铁都负载到活性炭内部，这在处理水时铁不流失很重要。 其次，利用制备的负载型纳米铁作吸附载体，进行了饮用水中As(Ⅴ)的吸附去除实验。研究了该吸附剂对As(Ⅴ)的吸附等温线、动力学以及影响动力学的各种因素（包括As(Ⅴ)的不同初始浓度、吸附剂用量、pH值、共存离子和不同温度）、pH值、共存离子等环境条件对As(Ⅴ)去除的影响；以及吸附剂的再生及再生后的吸附效率等。研究发现在前12 h内吸附较快，72 h时达到了平衡。用Langmuir 吸附等温式估算出As(Ⅴ)的吸附量为12.0 mg•g-1。该吸附剂在pH 6.5， (25±2)℃， As(Ⅴ)初始浓度为2 mg•L-1，吸附剂用量为1.0 g•L-1时，As(Ⅴ)的去除率为75.2%；当把吸附剂的用量增加到1.5 g•L-1时，As(Ⅴ)的去除率可达99.9%以上。吸附剂可以用0.1M的NaOH浸泡12 h后即可再生，再生效率较高。常见的阴离子中PO43-、SiO32-对As(Ⅲ)的去除抑制较大，而SO42-、CO32-、C2O42-等离子对砷的去除影响较小。Fe2+对As(Ⅲ)的吸附抑制作用较大而其它阳离子影响不大。吸附剂可用0.1 M NaOH 有效再生，并且具有良好的机械性能。实验室初步实验数据表明，该吸附剂对饮用水除砷具有较好的应用前景。 第三，利用实验室制备的负载型纳米铁对饮用水中As(Ⅲ)的吸附去除也进行了研究。考察了吸附等温线、动力学以及影响动力学的各种因素、pH值、共存离子等环境条件对As(Ⅲ)去除的影响；以及吸附剂的再生及再生后的吸附效率等。研究发现，该吸附剂在pH 6.5， (25±2)℃， As(Ⅲ)初始浓度为2 mg•L-1，吸附剂用量为1.0 g•L-1时， 对As(Ⅲ)的去除率为99.8%；其吸附容量为1.996mg•g-1。吸附过程中部分As(Ⅲ)被氧化。与As(Ⅴ)的吸附相比，该吸附剂对As(Ⅲ)的效率比较高-而常见的其它除砷吸附剂如载铁纤维棉等，对As(Ⅴ)的效率比As(Ⅲ)高，为有效去除As(Ⅲ)，常常需要专门加上氧化这一过程。 最后，利用负载型纳米铁对饮用水中As(Ⅲ) 的氧化性能进行考察，发现该吸附剂不但能够有效吸附去除饮用水中的砷，而且还能把As(Ⅲ)有效地氧化为As(Ⅴ)。经过对吸附剂的构成组分分析发现，活性炭表面因富含多种官能团而对三价砷的氧化作用最大；其次是纳米铁也能把As(Ⅲ)氧化为As(Ⅴ)。

吡唑和1-甲胺酰基吡唑类化合物的紫外吸收光谱及其应用

研究了吡唑类化合物和1-甲胺酰基吡唑类化合物的紫外吸收光谱。结果表明,3位和5位的取代使吡唑的最大吸收波长红移3~4 nm,而4位的取代能够引起较大的红移(>10 nm)。甲胺酰基的引入可使吡唑类化合物的最大吸收波长红移20~26 nm,最大消光系数提高2~3倍。基于此,建立了快速测定吡唑类化合物含量的紫外分光光度法,并测定了长效尿素中3,4-二甲基吡唑磷酸盐(DMPP)的含量为尿素-N的1.15%,1-甲胺酰基-3-甲基吡唑(CMP)在水溶液中水解的半减期在20,25和30℃下分别为48,30和16 h,应用不同提取剂对三种土壤中硝化抑制剂3-甲基吡唑磷酸盐(MPP)的提取率为63.2%~89.2%。

The use of CE-electrochemiluminescence with ionic liquid for the determination of bioactive constituents in Chinese traditional medicine

CE/tris(2,2-bipyridyl) ruthenium(ll) (Ru(bpy)(3)(2+)) electrochemiluminescence (ECL), CEECL, with an ionic liquid (IL) detection system was established for the determination of bioactive constituents in Chinese traditional medicine opium poppy which contain large amounts of coexistent substances. A minimal sample pretreatment which involves a one-step extraction approach avoids both sample loss and environmental pollution. As the nearby hydroxyl groups in some alkaloid such as morphine may react with borate to form complexes and IL, as a high-conductivity additive in running buffer, could cause an enhanced field-amplified effect of electrokinetic injection. Running buffer containing 25 mM borax-8 mM 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate (EMImBF(4)) IL (pH 9.18) was used which resulted in significant changes in separation selectivity and obvious enhancement in ECL intensities for those alkaloids with similar structures. Sensitive detection could be achieved when the distance between the Pt working electrode and the outlet of separation capillary was set at 150 mu m and the stainless steel cannula was fixed approximately 1 cm away from the outlet of the capillary. Quantitative analysis of four alkaloids was achieved at a detection voltage of 1.2 V and a separation voltage of 15 kV in less than 7 min.

SIMULATION OF THE OXYGEN-ATOM VACANCY IN THE HIGH-TEMPERATURE SUPERCONDUCTOR TIBA2CAN-1CUNO2N+2.5(N = 1)

These simulation calculations for the oxygen-atom vacancy in the high temperature superconductor TlBa2Ca(n-1)Cu(n)O2n+2.5(n = 1) have been performed by means of the tight-binding approximation based on the EHMO method. The results indicate that the effect of the oxygen-atom vacancy on the charge distributions at the Tl-, Ba-, Cu- and O-atom sites is appreciably different and that there may exist two kinds of Cu cation with different net charges (approximately + 3.0 or approximately + 1.0) due to the oxygen-atom vacancy in the lattice. The electric field gradient at the site of the oxygen-atom vacancy has been calculated. The position of the oxygen-atom vacancy which favours the high temperature superconductivity of TlBa2Ca(n-1)Cu(n)O2n+2.5(n = 1) has been discussed.

Halogenated Terpenes and a C-15-Acetogenin from the Marine Red Alga Laurencia saitoi

Seven parguerane diterpenes: 15-bromo-2,7,19-triacetoxyparguer-9(11)-en-16-ol (1), 15-bromo-2,7,16,19-tetraacetoxyparguer-9(11)-ene (2), 15-bromo-2,19-diacetoxyparguer-9(11)-en-7,16-diol (3), 15-bromo-2,16,19-triacetoxyparguer-9(11)-en-7-ol (4), 15bromo-2,16-diacetoxyparguer-9(11)-en-7-ol (5), 15-bromoparguer-9(11)-en-16-ol (6), 15-bromoparguer-7-en-16-ol (7), two polyether triterpenes: thyrsiferol (8) and thyrsiferyl 23-acetate (9), and one C15-acetogenin, neolaurallene (10), were isolated from a sample of marine red alga Laurencia saitoi collected off the coast of Yantai. Their structures were established by detailed NMR spectroscopic analysis and comparison with literature data.
