O presente trabalho visa avaliar a qualidade da água da bacia hidrográfica do rio Maquiné (BHRM), região pertencente à bacia hidrográfica do rio Tramandaí, inserida na Reserva da Biosfera da Mata Atlântica. Com área de 550 km2, a BHRM é considerada uma das regiões em melhor estado de conservação da Mata Atlântica para o Estado do Rio Grande do Sul. Apesar disso, sofre influência antrópica de atividade agrícola, criação de animais e falta de saneamento básico. Para a avaliação da qualidade dos recursos hídricos, foram selecionados 7 pontos georeferenciados, onde foram obtidos dados de vazão, potencial hidrogeniônico (pH), condutividade, Oxigênio Dissolvido, Coliformes Fecais, Demanda Bioquímica de Oxigênio em 5 dias (DBO5), Fosfato total, Nitrato, Turbidez, Sólidos totais, SiO2, Fe, Cd, Hg, Zn e Cu, nos períodos de inverno (14/08/2001), primavera (15/10/2001), verão (06/01/2002) e outono (13/05/2002). Os resultados foram comparados com os limites estabelecidos pela Portaria nº1469/2000 da FUNASA e Resolução CONAMA nº20/1986. Para a avaliação da água para consumo humano, foi utilizado o Índice de Qualidade da Água, proposto pela NSF e adotado pela CETESB. No período amostrado a água encontrava-se com boa e ótima qualidade. Os principais responsáveis pela perda da qualidade da água foram Coliformes Fecais, DBO5, Fosfato total e Sólidos totais. Utilizando-se os dados do clima, obtidos da FEPAGRO/Maquiné, foi calculado o Balanço Hídrico na região, que indicou não haver estresse hídrico. Para conhecimento do aporte de metais no sistema fluvial, o Balanço de Massa foi calculado, indicando haver contribuição antrópica de Cu e Zn. Através da análise estatística ficou evidente a influência da sazonalidade sobre os resultados obtidos. As entrevistas à população demonstraram a falta de saneamento básico, incluindo o tratamento da água para consumo, bem como a contaminação humana por agrotóxicos e a falta de informações sobre os sintomas das doenças relacionadas. Por sua vez, pelos resultados obtidos, os trabalhos de Educação Ambiental desenvolvidos na região demonstram ser positivos, no que diz respeito aos usos da água e à contaminação por agrotóxicos.

Environmental pollution has become a subject of public interest throughout the world. Not only have developed countries been affected by environmental problems but also the developing nations have started to suffer from the serious impacts of pollution. Within this context it is necessary to collect simplified environmental data to assist in the management of water resources by the appropriate authorities. These data are obtained through an environmental index that allows a space-time comparison of points distributed in the same aquatic body, or between different water bodies, for physico-chemical and bacteriological parameters. The aim of this present study was to determine the environmental status of the Lagoa de Baixo at Guamaré/RN, where a production unit of PETROBRAS RN/CE is located. For this purpose the Water Quality Index (WQI) was used in both an add and multiply form, the Trophic State Index (TSI) and the Environmental Quality Quotient (EQQ), as well as determining the concentrations of metals. The average values obtained for the WQI, in its two forms were 68,67 and 62,76 respectively which were inside the good qualification. According to the TSI the lagoon showed characteristics of a middle trophic state, and an impact level of regular as determined by the EQQ

In the semiarid region of northeastern of Brazil, the reservoirs are vulnerable to water level seasonal fluctuations, they re related to the hydrological cycle. The rain periods are irregular and there are long periods of drought that increases eutrophication process. That happens because of the water level s reduction and nutrient concentration. The Boqueirao, located in northeastern Brazil , is a mesotrophic reservoir. The reservoir is naturally susceptible to deterioration of water quality. This happens because of the potential diffuse sources arising from the use and occupation of the basin, associated with shallow soil caatinga biome and highly vulnerable to erosion. This study aimed to analyze the influence of the use and occupation of the area around and the water quality of the watershed. A study of the area around the Boqueirão was performed, taking the potentially polluting activities. Limnological variables were monitored monthly in 3 points of the reservoir to assess the water quality. Was evidenced an event of prolonged drought, with rainfall below the historical average for the year of study. By the index of water quality, the watershed was classified as " good " during the whole year of 2012. According to the trophic index adopted the reservoir is characterized as mesotrophic. The main anthropogenic impacts identified in the soil were arboreal selective logging, mining, diffuse contribution of residues from agricultural and livestock activities. The lack of precipitation and the degradation of the surrounding area, affect negatively the water quality, requiring immediate control to prevent degradation of the watershed . Although there wasn t a majority polluting activity in the region. The total of several impacting activities, the high susceptibility of the soil and the selective clearing of caatinga vegetation can accelerate the natural process of eutrophication in the water body

Brain injury can be associated with changes in the sleep-wake cycle. However, studies about sleep disturbances and their relationship with quality of sleep are scarce. Besides, it remains to be known how stroke affects the mechanisms of sleep. The aim of this study was to investigate quality of sleep, complaints of sleep disturbances and associated factors in stroke patients from the Physical Therapy services in Natal -RN. This was a cross-sectional descriptive study involving 70 individuals (aged 45-65 years), 40 patients (57 ± 7 years), 11 ± 9 months after injury, and 30 healthy individua ls (52 ± 6 years), evaluated with the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) and Sleep Habits Questionnaire. The data were analyzed by Chi-square test, t Student test and logistic regression. Poor quality sleep was found in 57,5% of the patients (6,3 ± 3,5) and was significantly higher than in the control population (3,9 ± 2,2) (t Student test, p=0,002). The patients showed significantly higher value of PSQI than controls: sleep latency (p=0,019), length of sleep (p=0,039) and dysfunction during the day (p=0,001). Regarding complaints of sleep disturbances (dyssomnias and parasomnias) analyzed by Chi-square test, the complaint of insomnia was the most prevalent (patients: 37,5%; healthy subjects: 6,7%; p=0,007). Regression analysis showed that sl eep latency (p=0,036) and complaint of insomnia (p=0,036) were associated with quality sleep. In addition, female gender (p=0,036) and complaint of broken sleep (p=0,003) were considered risk factors for the presence of insomnia. Our results show that stroke affects the homeostatic process of sleep. Shorter sleep latency and the absence of insomnia are considered protective factors for good sleep quality and this should be taken into consideration in the diagnostic and therapeutic strategies

This study is an environmental diagnosis of the Jundiaí-Potengi/RN estuarine system waters, using calculations of pollution indicator indices such as the Water Quality Index (WQI) and the Toxicity Index (TI). The samples were collected at twelve points on the estuary, at high and low tide, between August and November 2007, over four campaigns. The study area, located in a high impact region, has various activities on its banks such as: discharge of untreated or undertreated domestic and industrial sewage, shrimp farming, immunizer stabilization lakes, riverside communities, etc. All the parameters analyzed were compared to the limits of CONAMA Resolution No. 357 of 2005 for healthy and saline Class 1 waters. The results found prove the impact caused by various activities, mainly the parameters related to the presence of organic material, such as DQO, DBO, COT and thermotolerant colliforms. The IQA for most of the collection points was of medium quality. For the metals, although values above the Resolution limits were found, most of them were lower than the detection limits of ICP-OES used, indicating that they tend to be transported by the dynamic of the tides or rainfall and are deposited in bottom sediments, resulting in a TI of 1.0 in this water, when they are absent, which occurs in most cases, or 0.0, when heavy metals are found in these waters

O objetivo deste trabalho foi verificar a influência do período de permanência das mudas sob sombreamento nos parâmetros empregados na avaliação da qualidade das mudas de Tremamicrantha (crindiúva). O delineamento experimental foi o inteiramente casualizado, com quatro repetições por tratamento, contendo 88 plantas cada. Foram realizadas três avaliações, aos 90, 120 e 150 dias após a emergência. Os tratamentos na avaliação I foram 45, 60, 75 e 90; na avaliação II, 45, 60, 75, 90, 105 e 120; e na avaliação III, 45, 60, 75, 90, 105, 120, 135 e 150 dias de permanência sob sombreamento com 48% de retenção da radiação, respectivamente. Foram avaliados os parâmetros morfológicos das mudas, suas relações e o índice de qualidade de Dickson. As mudas desenvolvidas sob maiores períodos de sombreamento, embora tenham alcançado maiores alturas das partes aéreas e áreas foliares, apresentaram as piores qualidades, com redução do diâmetro do coleto, da massa seca do sistema radicular e do índice de qualidade de Dickson e aumento da relação altura da parte aérea/diâmetro do coleto e da relação parte aérea/sistema radicular. Nas três avaliações, o período de permanência das mudas sob sombreamento não influenciou significativamente os parâmetros área foliar, massa seca das folhas, massa seca da parte aérea e massa seca total. As mudas apresentaram melhores padrões de qualidade e condições de plantio no campo a partir dos 120 dias de idade, quando crescidas sob 45 e 60 dias de sombreamento. O índice de qualidade de Dickson foi bom indicador do padrão de qualidade das mudas.
