Mortalidade por neoplasias malignas na população residente próximo de minas de urânio em Portugal : Epidemiologia

RESUMO - Introdução: O encerramento das minas de urânio em Portugal tem suscitado preocupação no que respeita aos eventuais efeitos que as radiações emitidas e os agentes químicos presentes terão na saúde das populações. Para esclarecer a existência de tal efeito foi delineado um programa de investigação em que o presente estudo se enquadra. Sendo conhecido que as populações expostas a minas de urânio, nomeadamente os mineiros, têm risco acrescido de sofrer de neoplasias, especialmente de «neoplasias da traqueia, dos brônquios e do pulmão», foi este o grupo de neoplasias seleccionado para constituir a hipótese principal do estudo. Assim, o estudo pretendeu verificar se existe associação entre exposição a minas de urânio e suas escombreiras (especialmente à mina da Urgeiriça, no concelho de Nelas) e a mortalidade por alguns grupos de neoplasias malignas, nomeadamente as «neoplasias malignas da traqueia, dos brônquios e do pulmão». Material e métodos: Trata-se de um estudo «ecológico» em que se consideraram «expostos» os residentes no concelho de Nelas, bem como no conjunto de concelhos com minas de urânio, e «não expostos» os residentes nos restantes concelhos das NUTS Dão-Lafões e Beira Interior Norte e Serra da Estrela. A análise centrou-se no cálculo, para cada concelho ou grupo de concelhos, das razões padronizadas de mortalidade (RPM) por «neoplasias malignas da traqueia, dos brônquios e do pulmão», por «neoplasia maligna do estômago» e por «todas as neoplasias malignas » no período de vinte anos compreendido entre 1980 e 1999. Resultados: Tomando os dois sexos em conjunto, o concelho de Nelas teve a RPM mais elevada para as «neoplasias malignas da traqueia, dos brônquios e do pulmão» (RPM = 133; p = 0,003). Teve também o valor mais elevado no sexo masculino (RPM = 126, não significativo) e o segundo mais elevado no sexo feminino (RPM = 142, não significativo). A razão das RPM concelho de Nelas/concelhos limítrofes de Nelas foi 1,46, p = 0,002 (homens: 1,50 p = 0,003; mulheres: 1,27, não significativo). As razões das RPM concelho de Nelas/concelhos com minas (1,94, p = 0,001) e concelho de Nelas/concelhos sem minas (1,57, p = 0,001) foram claramente superiores a 1. Pelo contrário, as RPM por «neoplasia maligna do estômago » foram sobretudo elevadas nos concelhos da NUTS Beira Interior Norte, que inclui grande parte do distrito da Guarda, (Trancoso: 154, p = 0,000; Sabugal: 146, p = 0,000), embora se tenham observado valores elevados em alguns concelhos da NUTS Dão-Lafões (Vila Nova de Paiva: 154, p = 0,001). Saliente-se que os dois valores mais baixos ocorreram nos concelhos de Tábua (RPM = 57; p = 0,000) e de Nelas (RPM = 60; p = 0,000). Para o conjunto de «todas as neoplasias malignas» as RPM dos vários concelhos variaram entre 62 e 100 sem que a distribuição desses valores sugerisse qualquer associação positiva relevante. Discussão: Os resultados mostraram que a população do concelho de Nelas teve, no período estudado, um risco acrescido de morrer por «neoplasias malignas da traqueia, dos brônquios e do pulmão» quando comparado com a dos concelhos limítrofes e restantes concelhos das NUTS estudadas. A existência da mina da Urgeiriça e da sua escombreira é uma possível causa desse excesso de mortalidade. Ele poderá ter sido gerado, por um lado, através da existência de uma percentagem elevada de ex-mineiros, bem como, por outro lado, através de uma exposição ambiental geral, facto este que é sustentado pela ocorrência de excesso de mortalidade tanto em homens como em mulheres. O excesso de mortalidade por aquele grupo de neoplasias pode ainda ter origem noutras exposições cujo potencial papel é discutido.

A pictorial field guide for the rapid identification of sandflies (DIPTERA: PSYCHODIDAE), commonly encountered in Pará state, Brazil.

A pictorial field guide to the 30 species of sandfly most commonly encountered in Pará State is presented, based on the easily recognised external characters of the length of the 5th palpal segment, thoracic infuscation, abdominal colour and head and body size. In most cases this allows identification to the species. In others, especially with females, it gives an indication of the species, which may then be confirmed with data from more detailed taxanomix studies. This type of field guide helps in teaching, rapid sorting of flies prior to dissection and in acquainting visitors with the variety of species present in a given area.A rapid technique for the taxonomic sorting of unmounted, freshly killed female sandflies is required, prior to the dissection of large numbers of a particular species. Such a method is useful in areas where numerous species occur in studies on natural flagellate infections, age determination and for ecological studies. With the above points in mind a pictorial field guide has been designed that enables the identification of unmounted, unmacerated specimens of the 30 more commonly encountered species of phleboto-mine sandflies (***) in Pará State, North Brazil. It is based on the easily recognised external characters of the length of the 5th palpal segment, thoracic infuscation, ad-dominal colour and proboscis and body size.Taxonomy of male phlebotomine sandflies is based on the structure of the genitalia and, as most of this is external, a wholly external character key is readily made. Female taxonomy, however, is based on the internal character of the cibarium, pharynx and sperma thecae. In order to produce an external character key we therefore return to an unso phisticated "phlebotometry" (see Martins et al., 1978 p. 3 for review), using relative lengths of the proboscis, palpal segments and body, along with the degree of infuscation. Ihis idea is not new; indeed many sandfly specialists presently use external characters to separate certain species (H. Fraiha, R. P. Lane, P. D. Ready, D. G. Young and R. D. Ward personal communications 1983 & 1984).A key used to separate five anthropophillic sandflies by Biagi (1966), in Mexico, was based mainly on palpal segment length and infuscation. Floch and Abonnenc (1952) stressed the use of relative lengths of palpal segments in their keys to the sandflies of French Guiana, and four members of the shannoni group have been similarly separated according to the degree of infuscation by Morales et al. (1982). The use of thoracic infuscation as a reliable character seems to be gaining favour, having been used by young & Fairchild (1974) and Ready & Fraiha (1981). Indeed Chariotis 1974) showed the usefulness of thoracic infuscation to sepenate 7 anthropophillic species, during studies onvesicular stomatitis in Panama. Identification using external characters is essential for work on viral isolations from sandflies, where bulk samples of whole sandflies are used.Perhaps the major advantage of a simple visual guide is for teaching purposes. Technical staff in this lnstitute are able to identify most of the species they encounter without having to use the standard, more unwieldly (and in many cases unavailable) internal character keys, and the guides presented below have allowed rapid species sorting prior to the dissection of sandflies in our leismaniasis study areas (Ryan et at. ,1985).

Electrokinetic treatment of environmental matrices. Contaminants removal and phosphorus recovery

There is a need to develop viable techniques for removal and recovery organic and inorganic compounds from environmental matrices, due to their ecotoxicity, regulatory obligations or potential supplies as secondary materials. In this dissertation, electro –removal and –recovery techniques were applied to five different contaminated environmental matrices aiming phosphorus (P) recovery and/or contaminants removal. In a first phase, the electrokinetic process (EK) was carried out in soils for (i) metalloids and (ii) organic contaminants (OCs) removal. In the case of As and Sb mine contaminated soil, the EK process was additionally coupled with phytotechnologies. In a second phase, the electrodialytic process (ED) was applied to wastes aiming P recovery and simultaneous removal of (iii) toxins from membrane concentrate, (iv) heavy metals from sewage sludge ash (SSA), and (v) OCs from sewage sludge (SS). EK enhanced phytoremediation showed to be viable for the remediation of soils contaminated with metalloids, as although remediation was low, it combines advantages of both technologies while allowing site management. EK also proved to be an effective remediation technology for the removal and degradation of emerging OCs from two types of soil. Aiming P recovery and contaminants removal, different ED cell set-ups were tested. For the membrane concentrates, the best P recovery was achieved in a three compartment (3c) cell, but the highest toxin removal was obtained in a two compartment (2c) cell, placing the matrix in the cathode end. In the case of SSA the best approach for simultaneous P recovery and heavy metals removal was to use a 2c-cell placing the matrix in the anode end. However, for simultaneous P recovery and OCs removal, SS should be placed in the cathode end, in a 2c-cell. Overall, the data support that the selection of the cell design should be done case-by-case.

Biologia reprodutiva de Macrobrachium jelskii (Crustacea, Decapoda, Palaemonidae) no Rio São Francisco, Minas Gerais, Brasil

RESUMO O objetivo foi avaliar a biologia reprodutiva do camarão- sossego Macrobrachium jelskii (Miers, 1877) no Rio São Francisco, com ênfase na razão sexual, período reprodutivo, maturidade sexual e fecundidade. As coletas foram realizadas mensalmente entre março de 2005 e fevereiro de 2006 exceto nos meses de abril e outubro, nos dois pontos de coleta do Rio São Francisco, Represa de Três Marias (Estação Ecológica de Pirapitinga), a montante da barragem da usina hidroelétrica de Três Marias e a jusante da barragem, localizados no município de Três Marias, região central de Minas Gerais, Brasil. O puçá de 1 m² de boca e malha de 1,42 mm foi passado sob a vegetação marginal e na água à margem dos dois pontos de coleta, por um coletor em um período de até 30 minutos. Em laboratório, os espécimes foram identificados, mensurados e sexados. Um total de 2.945 espécimes foi analisado a montante, no qual correspondem a 1.064 machos e 1.857 fêmeas (1.653 não ovígeras e 204 ovígeras) e 1.973 a jusante, onde 1.120 machos e 841 fêmeas (643 não ovígeras e 198 ovígeras). A razão sexual diferiu significativamente a favor de fêmeas de M. jelskii a montante (0,57; χ2= 215,28; p < 0.01) e a favor dos machos a jusante (1,33; χ2= 39,69; p < 0.01). Ambas as populações possuem um período reprodutivo contínuo-sazonal com pico em janeiro e novembro para os camarões a montante e a jusante, respectivamente. A fecundidade média de M. jelskii foi de 37 ± 14 ovos (5 a 78 ovos) a montante da barragem e de 35 ± 14 ovos (5 a 69 ovos) a jusante. A razão sexual desviada para os machos de M. jelskii à jusante sugere que as fêmeas apresentaram o comportamento de se abrigarem entre as vegetações marginais. A razão sexual desviada para as fêmeas a montante demonstra a real proporção de machos e fêmeas, que pode ser considerada para a espécie no Rio São Francisco. O tamanho dos ovos carregados pelas fêmeas a jusante foi influenciado pelas baixas temperaturas da água proveniente da represa.

Contribuição ao conhecimento da sistemática e biologia de buprestídeos minadores do gênero Pachyschelus Solier, 1833: (Coleoptera, Buprestidae)

Buprestid leaf-miners are generally included in the subtribe Trachytes. The genera belonging to this subtribe are commonly very rich in number of species and their systematics envolves huge difficulties. On the other hand the biological knowledge on those insects is very poor. The A. tries to clarify the systematical status of two species of Pachyschelus - P. subundulatus Kerr. and P. fulgidipennis Lucas, and redescribes also P. binderi Obenberger. The hosts of the first two species are recorded, namely: Terminalia catappa (Combretaceae) - host-plant of P. subundulatus and Luhea spp. (Tiliaceae) - host-plant of P. fulgidipennis. The mines, developmental stages and habits of the three species are described and is made a full redescription of the adults, both male and female. The study is based on reared material from mined leaves, as well as insects assembled in several brazilian collections, both private and public ones. The importance of some biological facts as well as some morphological characters are stressed. The knowledge of the host-plants and the shape and other structural features of the mine were found to be helpfull to the identification of the species. Some morphological features of adults also prooved to be of systematical value. Besides the female pygidium and the male genitalia, the tibiae of the third pair of legs show some intersting structural details, reasonably alike in both sexes and quite different in each species.

Lead Miners’ Earnings in 19th Century Allendale

This paper uses the records of the Beaumont/Blackett lead mining concerns in Allendale to examine the earnings for lead miners in the early 1860‟s. The paper matches two parts of the historical record, the Bargain books and the quarterly financial accounts, to give a more complete picture of the earnings of this group of workers than has previously been done. The paper also examines aspects of the setting of the rates in the bargains by the mine owner‟s agents.

Prevalence of hepatitis B and C virus markers among malaria-exposed gold miners in Brazilian Amazon

Hepatitis B and C virus markers were assessed during a survey on malaria in gold mine camps in southern Brazilian Amazon in order to identify risk factors associated to these viral diseases. The study comprised 520 subjects, most of them were gold miners. Missing subjects totaled 49 (8.6%). Among these 520, 82.9% had HBV markers and 7.1% were HBsAg positive. Previous hospitalization, surgery, sexually transmitted diseases and incarceration were quite common among surveyed people, but there is no association between total HBV markers and these factors. On other hand, HBsAg was independently associated to history of sexually transmitted diseases and history of surgery after adjustment. The most frequent HBsAg subtypes identified, adw2 (59%), predominates in populations of Northeast Brazil. The most surveyed people were immigrants coming from that area suggesting that immigrants carried HBV themselves to the study area. Immunoblot (RIBA) confirmed-anti-HCV were found in 2.1%. The only variable associated to anti-HCV in multivariate analysis was illicit intravenous drug. Lack of HCV infection in subjects with such a high HBV markers prevalence reinforces the opinion that HCV is transmitted by restricted routes when compared to HBV. Furthermore, gold miners in Amazon may be considered as a risk group for HBV infection, but not for HCV.

Relation between Hepatitis B Carrier Status and Antibody against Synthetic Plasmodium falciparum Erythrocyte Surface (pf155 - RESA) Antigen

A survey on Plasmodium infection was carried out in gold mine camps located in the Brazilian Amazon. Antibody against P. falciparum ring-infected erythrocyte surface antigen (RESA) was quantified by an enzyme-immunoassay in order to assess P. falciparum exposure. Hepatitis B, a common infection in this area, was also investigated by serologic markers. Among 520 sampled subjects, 517 (99.4%) admitted previous symptomatic malaria, 106 (20.4%) had positive thick smears for malaria, 82.9% had HBV markers, and 7.1% were HBsAg positive. Anti-RESA titers was significantly lower in HBV carriers than in people with resolved HBV infection suggesting that the anti-RESA immune response could be supressed by HBV carrier status. Moreover, immunedeficient responses to both infections may take place in some subjects causing concomitant lower anti-RESA response and incapacity to clear HBV.

Schizophrenic delusions: a phenomenological approach.

The issue of specificity of delusions in schizophrenia is still a matter of debate. The authors analyze the delusion formation in schizophrenia from a prototypical, phenomenological point of view, focusing on the subject's experience. This perspective links delusion formation to the autistic predisposition, which is considered here as the elementary phenotypic expression of the vulnerability to schizophrenia. Autism is viewed as a defective preconceptual (i.e., before language) attunement to the world. It impedes the individual's sharing of "common sense" with others and impairs the ability to project into the future. The development of delusions is illustrated, in part, by Klaus Conrad's work on the onset of paranoid schizophrenia. Delusions are viewed as transformations of the structure of experiencing. When threatened in future ability to be, the autistic, vulnerable person looks for the clues to becoming by attributing significance to disparate elements of the environment, which become self-referential. The link established between these disparate elements is based on universal characteristics that give the schizophrenic delusion a metaphysical quality. The transitivistic experience in delusions of control and omnipotence points to a specific way of crossing the border between "mine" and "yours" (disturbances of the experiencing "I"). What strikes a clinician in these delusions is that the normally tacit link between the sense of being and the sense of acting becomes quite apparent. The authors also propose a specificity in the themes of schizophrenic delusions. Delusions acquire a schizophrenic quality when ontological (i.e., universal) elements of the discourse between the locutor and the Other dominate at the expense of the worldly elements. It is emphasized that delusional content and form are dialectically related and hardly distinguishable. The authors consider the delusion formation as a phenomenon of emergence, a situation in which a new qualitative order arises from the reorganization of essentially unchanged elements. To consider schizophrenia as an emergent, particular way of experiencing, related to the autistic defect, has important consequences for research and for treatment. A dialectic exchange is needed between prototypical models generated by phenomenological inquiry and empirical, operational validation of testable aspects of such models.

Summer School Programme

The Summer School aims to enable and foster a climate of inquiry for critical thinking, quantitative analysis and explore existing relevant data sources. We aim to develop the concepts and tools associated with quantitative research related to child health and wellbeing. Building on participants’ existing knowledge of research, policy and practice, we will focus on the quantitative skills necessary to mine and critique relevant national databases, conduct basic quantitative research and apply these skills to work. The SPSS workshops will provide  participants with a basic understanding of a statistical programme for analysing empirical data and the open clinics will allow participants to discuss their own research issues with experts.

Isolation and isoenzyme characterization of Leishmania (Viannia) braziliensis from a case of human cutaneous leishmaniasis in northeast centre of the state of São Paulo

The diagnosis of human cutaneous leishmaniasis in small towns is sometimes made without the species identification of the Leishmania, even in areas without previous epidemiological surveys. Here we report the isolation of a Leishmania strain from a patient of Rincão, state of São Paulo, that was identified by isoenzyme characterization as L. (Viannia) braziliensis. Sand fly collections were made in the area where the patient live in order to investigate the likely vector species.

Identification of new MHC class I-restricted human tumor antigens for immunotherapy

Summary Cancer is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality in Western countries (as an example, colorectal cancer accounts for about 300'000 new cases and 200'000 deaths each year in Europe and in the USA). Despite that many patients with cancer have complete macroscopic clearance of their disease after resection, radiotherapy and/or chemotherapy, many of these patients develop fatal recurrence. Vaccination with immunogenic peptide tumor antigens has shown encouraging progresses in the last decade; immunotherapy might therefore constitute a fourth therapeutic option in the future. We dissect here and critically evaluate the numerous steps of reverse immunology, a forecast procedure to identify antigenic peptides from the sequence of a gene of interest. Bioinformatic algorithms were applied to mine sequence databases for tumor-specific transcripts. A quality assessment of publicly available sequence databanks allowed defining strengths and weaknesses of bioinformatics-based prediction of colon cancer-specific alternative splicing: new splice variants could be identified, however cancer-restricted expression could not be significantly predicted. Other sources of target transcripts were quantitatively investigated by polymerase chain reactions, as cancer-testis genes or reported overexpressed transcripts. Based on the relative expression of a defined set of housekeeping genes in colon cancer tissues, we characterized a precise procedure for accurate normalization and determined a threshold for the definition of significant overexpression of genes in cancers versus normal tissues. Further steps of reverse immunology were applied on a splice variant of the Melan¬A gene. Since it is known that the C-termini of antigenic peptides are directly produced by the proteasome, longer precursor and overlapping peptides encoded by the target sequence were synthesized chemically and digested in vitro with purified proteasome. The resulting fragments were identified by mass spectroscopy to detect cleavage sites. Using this information and based on the available anchor motifs for defined HLA class I molecules, putative antigenic peptides could be predicted. Their relative affinity for HLA molecules was confirmed experimentally with functional competitive binding assays and they were used to search patients' peripheral blood lymphocytes for the presence of specific cytolytic T lymphocytes (CTL). CTL clones specific for a splice variant of Melan-A could be isolated; although they recognized peptide-pulsed cells, they failed to lyse melanoma cells in functional assays of antigen recognition. In the conclusion, we discuss advantages and bottlenecks of reverse immunology and compare the technical aspects of this approach with the more classical procedure of direct immunology, a technique introduced by Boon and colleagues more than 10 years ago to successfully clone tumor antigens.
