A anomalia do epicarpo da goiaba, comumente relatada por agricultores e técnicos como o anelamento juvenil da goiaba, tem causado preocupação devido à desinformação sobre o assunto. O objetivo deste estudo foi analisar quimicamente as concentrações de substâncias fenólicas e carotenoides na região do epicarpo de goiabas afetadas pelo anelamento, visando a caracterizar essa anomalia previamente relatada. Foram analisadas substâncias fenólicas (taninos, flavonas/flavonóis, antocianinas e fenóis totais) e carotenoides em epicarpos de frutos verdes e maduros de goiabeiras cv. Paluma, com e sem anomalia. O delineamento experimental adotado foi o inteiramente casualizado, sendo estabelecidos seis tratamentos com o epicarpo dos frutos maduro sem anomalia na região inferior (FMSI); frutos maduros sem injuria na região superior (FMSS); frutos verdes sem anomalia na região inferior (FVSI); frutos verdes sem anomalia na região superior (FVSS); frutos verdes com anomalia na região inferior (FVCI); frutos verdes com anomalia na região superior (FVCS). Dentre as substâncias analisadas, os carotenoides, os taninos e os fenóis totais mostram indicativos para a caracterização do anelamento. Tanto substâncias fenólicas quanto carotenoides apresentam propriedades antioxidantes e, dessa forma, poderiam estar relacionadas à defesa antioxidante causada por um fator de estresse ainda desconhecido, que promove o anelamento característico apresentado pelas goiabas.

The Borborema Province (BP) is a geologic domain located in Northeastern Brazil. The BP is limited at the south by the São Francisco craton, at the west by the Parnaíba basin, and both at the north and east by coastal sedimentary basins. Nonetheless the BP surface geology is well known, several key aspects of its evolution are still open, notably: i)its tectonic compartmentalization established after the Brasiliano orogenesis, ii) the architecture of its cretaceous continental margin, iii) the elastic properties of its lithosphere, and iv) the causes of magmatism and uplifting which occurred in the Cenozoic. In this thesis, a regional coverage of geophysical data (elevation, gravity, magnetic, geoid height, and surface wave global tomography) were integrated with surface geologic information aiming to attain a better understanding of the above questions. In the Riacho do Pontal belt and in the western sector of the Sergipano belt, the neoproterozoic suture of the collision of the Sul domain of the BP with the Sanfranciscana plate (SFP) is correlated with an expressive dipolar gravity anomaly. The positive lobule of this anomaly is due to the BP lower continental crust uplifting whilst the negative lobule is due to the supracrustal nappes overthrusting the SFP. In the eastern sector of the Sergipano belt, this dipolar gravity anomaly does not exist. However the suture still can be identified at the southern sector of the Marancó complex arc, alongside of the Porto da Folha shear zone, where the SFP N-S geophysical alignments are truncated. The boundary associated to the collision of the Ceará domain of the BP with the West African craton is also correlated with a dipolar gravity anomaly. The positive lobule of this anomaly coincides with the Sobral-Pedro II shear zone whilst the negative lobule is associated with the Santa Quitéria magmatic arc. Judging by their geophysical signatures, the major BP internal boundaries are: i)the western sector of the Pernambuco shear zone and the eastern continuation of this shear zone as the Congo shear zone, ii) the Patos shear zone, and iii) the Jaguaribe shear zone and its southwestern continuation as the Tatajuba shear zone. These boundaries divide the BP in five tectonic domains in the geophysical criteria: Sul, Transversal, Rio Grande do Norte, Ceará, and Médio Coreaú. The Sul domain is characterized by geophysical signatures associated with the BP and SFP collision. The fact that Congo shear zone is now proposed as part of the Transversal domain boundary implies an important change in the original definition of this domain. The Rio Grande do Norte domain presents a highly magnetized crust resulted from the superposition of precambrian and phanerozoic events. The Ceará domain is divided by the Senador Pompeu shear zone in two subdomains: the eastern one corresponds to the Orós-Jaguaribe belt and the western one to the Ceará-Central subdomain. The latter subdomain exhibits a positive ENE-W SW gravity anomaly which was associated to a crustal discontinuity. This discontinuity would have acted as a rampart against to the N-S Brasiliano orogenic nappes. The Médio Coreaú domain also presents a dipolar gravity anomaly. Its positive lobule is due to granulitic rocks whereas the negative one is caused by supracrustal rocks. The boundary between Médio Coreaú and Ceará domains can be traced below the Parnaíba basin sediments by its geophysical signature. The joint analysis of free air anomalies, free air admittances, and effective elastic thickness estimates (Te) revealed that the Brazilian East and Equatorial continental margins have quite different elastic properties. In the first one 10 km < Te < 20 km whereas in the second one Te ≤ 10 km. The weakness of the Equatorial margin lithosphere was caused by the cenozoic magmatism. The BP continental margin presents segmentations; some of them have inheritance from precambrian structures and domains. The segmentations conform markedly with some sedimentary basin features which are below described from south to north. The limit between Sergipe and Alagoas subbasins coincides with the suture between BP and SFP. Te estimates indicates concordantly that in Sergipe subbasin Te is around 20 km while Alagoas subbasin has Te around 10 km, thus revealing that the lithosphere in the Sergipe subbasin has a greater rigidity than the lithosphere in the Alagoas subbasin. Additionally inside the crust beneath Sergipe subbasin occurs a very dense body (underplating or crustal heritage?) which is not present in the crust beneath Alagoas subbasin. The continental margin of the Pernambuco basin (15 < Te < 25 km) presents a very distinct free air edge effect displaying two anomalies. This fact indicates the existence in the Pernambuco plateau of a relatively thick crust. In the Paraíba basin the free air edge effect is quite uniform, Te ≈ 15 km, and the lower crust is abnormally dense probably due to its alteration by a magmatic underplating in the Cenozoic. The Potiguar basin segmentation in three parts was corroborated by the Te estimates: in the Potiguar rift Te ≅ 5 km, in the Aracati platform Te ≅ 25 km, and in the Touros platform Te ≅ 10 km. The observed weakness of the lithosphere in the Potiguar rift segment is due to the high heat flux while the relatively high strength of the lithosphere in the Touros platform may be due to the existence of an archaean crust. The Ceará basin, in the region of Mundaú and Icaraí subbasins, presents a quite uniform free air edge effect and Te ranges from 10 to 15 km. The analysis of the Bouguer admittance revealed that isostasy in BP can be explained with an isostatic model where combined surface and buried loadings are present. The estimated ratio of the buried loading relative to the surface loading is equal to 15. In addition, the lower crust in BP is abnormally dense. These affirmations are particularly adequate to the northern portion of BP where adherence of the observed data to the isostatic model is quite good. Using the same above described isostatic model to calculate the coherence function, it was obtained that a single Te estimate for the entire BP must be lower than 60 km; in addition, the BP north portion has Te around 20 km. Using the conventional elastic flexural model to isostasy, an inversion of crust thickness was performed. It was identified two regions in BP where the crust is thickened: one below the Borborema plateau (associated to an uplifting in the Cenozoic) and the other one in the Ceará domain beneath the Santa Quitéria magmatic arc (a residue associated to the Brasiliano orogenesis). On the other hand, along the Cariri-Potiguar trend, the crust is thinned due to an aborted rifting in the Cretaceous. Based on the interpretation of free air anomalies, it was inferred the existence of a large magmatism in the oceanic crust surrounding the BP, in contrast with the incipient magmatism in the continent as shown by surface geology. In BP a quite important positive geoid anomaly exists. This anomaly is spatially correlated with the Borborema plateau and the Macaú-Queimadas volcanic lineament. The integrated interpretation of geoid height anomaly data, global shear velocity model, and geologic data allow to propose that and Edge Driven Convection (EDC) may have caused the Cenozoic magmatism. The EDC is an instability that presumably occurs at the boundary between thick stable lithosphere and oceanic thin lithosphere. In the BP lithosphere, the EDC mechanism would have dragged the cold lithospheric mantle into the hot asthenospheric mantle thus causing a positive density contrast that would have generated the main component of the geoid height anomaly. In addition, the compatibility of the gravity data with the isostatic model, where combined surface and buried loadings are present, together with the temporal correlation between the Cenozoic magmatism and the Borborema plateau uplifting allow to propose that this uplifting would have been caused by the buoyancy effect of a crustal root generated by a magmatic underplating in the Cenozoic

It is presently assumed that the Borborema Province resulted from a complex collisional process associated with the convergent movement of plates, possibly involving amalgamation and accretion of microplates. This process was consolidated at the end of the Brasiliano event. It is investigated the possible limits for the tectonostratigraphic terranes in the northern portion of the province based on an integrated study of geological and gravity data. The study area comprises the portion of the Borborema Province located north of the Patos Lineament, limited by longitudes 33º00 W and 43º29 44"W and latitudes 1º36 S and 8º00 S. A revision of the regional geology allowed to identify areas presenting contrasting geological attributes, possibly representing different terranes whose limits are always shear zones of Brasiliano-age. The Sobral-Pedro II shear zone is the only one undoubtedly presenting geological attributes of sutures zones. The other shear zones are very likely associated with a geodinymic context of accretion, involving oblique collisions (docking), transcurrent and/or transforming sutures, and deep intracrustal shear zones. The gravity data contributed as a tool to identify strong lateral contrasts of density inside the upper crust possibly associated with crustal blocks tectonically juxtaposed. The dominant long wavelength anomaly in the Bouguer anomaly map is an expressive gradient, grossly parallel to the continental margin, caused by density variation across the crust-mantle interface in the transition from the continental crust to the oceanic crust originated by the separation between South America and Africa. Medium to small wavelength anomalies are due to intracrustal heterogeneities such as different Precambrian crustal blocks, Brasiliano-age granites and Mesozoic sedimentary basins. A regional-residual separation of the Bouguer anomaly map was performed in order to enhance in the residual map the effect due to intracrustal heterogeneities. The methodology used for this separation was a robust polinomial fitting. The inversion of residual gravity field resulted in a density contrast map (Δρ), in an equivalent layer that provided more accurated anomalies contours and consolidated the model which the sources of residual anomalies are located in the upper part of the present crust. Based on the coincidence of gravity lineaments in the residual map and Brasiliano shear zones, and using additional geological information, the following shear zones are proposed as limits between terranes: Patos shear zone, Sobral-Pedro II shear zone, Picuí-João Câmara shear zone, Remígio-Pocinhos shear zone, Senador Pompeu shear zone, Tauá shear zone, and Portalegre shear zone. Based on the geological/geophysical information it is attributed a higher level of confidence to the first three proposed limits(Patos, Sobral Pedro II, and Picuí-João Câmara shear zones). From west to east, these shear zones individualize the following terranes: Northwest of Ceará terrane, Central Ceará terrane, Tauá terrane, Orós-Jaguaribe terrane, Seridó terrane, and São José de Campestre terrane. In our study, the Rio Piranhas and Patos terranes are questioned because their previously proposed limits do not present good geological and gravimetric evidences. On the other hand, the previously proposed Cearense terrane is now subdivided into Central Ceará and Tauá terranes. Two residual gravity profiles located in the Seridó belt were interpreted using 2 ½ D direct gravity modeling. The main result of the modeling process is that all anomalies, with the exception of one, can be explained by outcroppring bodies, therefore restricted to the upper part of the present crust

The Pelger-Huët anomaly is a dominant autosomal disease, characterized by the incomplete segmentation of the granulocytes nucleus without lost of the cellular function. The heterozygotes form of this anomaly is assintomatic and it did not possess physic meant, while the homozygote form is rare and can be lethal, being therefore, important differentiates of other infectious alterations. The pseudo-anomaly can occasionally be observed in cases of granulocitic leukemia, mieloproliferatives Diseases, some infections and after exposition the determined drugs. We evaluate eleven members of a familiar nucleus and, after the blood cells analysis, six of then had presented neutrophils and eosinophils with nuclei characteristic of the heterozygotes form of the Pelger-Huët anomaly. The recognition of this leukocyte anomaly, mainly in patients without infection and presenting great number of not segmented neutrophils, can prevent wrong interpretations of the blood cells count and unnecessary clinical and therapeutically behaviors.

O termo Habilidades Sociais (HS) é usado para designar um conjunto de repertórios comportamentais que envolvem interações sociais satisfatórias. A maioria dos estudos publicados sobre essa temática inclui a participação de crianças e adolescentes, abordando situações em ambiente escolar. Poucos são os estudos voltados para a área de saúde, e, até o momento, não foram localizadas pesquisas sobre HS realizadas com indivíduos portadores de Anomalia da Diferenciação Sexual (ADS). Esta anomalia se caracteriza pela malformação na genitália e/ou pela disfunção das gônadas, ocasionando características sexuais secundárias não correspondentes ao sexo de criação. Estudos clínicos realizados com indivíduos portadores de ADS têm destacado a ocorrência de déficits em habilidades sociais nesses indivíduos, caracterizados pela fuga-esquiva de situações sociais aversivas. Neste trabalho, pretendeu-se caracterizar o repertório comportamental correspondente a HS em indivíduos com ADS atendidos no ambulatório de um programa especializado de um hospital da rede pública de Belém, por meio de dois estudos complementares. No primeiro, foi realizado um estudo com delineamento transversal, com o objetivo de caracterizar comportamentos correspondentes a HS em indivíduos com ADS. Participaram 9 adultos com mais de seis meses em tratamento. Foram utilizados: Roteiro de Entrevista, Protocolo para análise de prontuário e Inventário de Habilidades Sociais - IHS. Os resultados sugerem que os participantes apresentam déficit de habilidades sociais em todos os fatores do IHS em menor ou maior grau, de maneira que poderiam se beneficiar com um treinamento de habilidades sociais como parte do tratamento, por se tratar de uma técnica que visa à superação e/ou redução dos déficits por eles apresentados. No segundo, foi realizado um estudo com delineamento de sujeito único, com o objetivo de verificar os efeitos do uso de treino em automonitoramento na instalação de comportamentos correspondentes a HS. Participou uma adulta com diagnóstico de ADS selecionada dentre os que participaram do Estudo 1. O procedimento de intervenção ocorreu por meio de entrevistas semanais, de acordo com as seguintes etapas: (1) Contrato: assinatura do Termo de Consentimento Livre e Esclarecido e agendamento de entrevista; (2) Avaliação: levantamento da linha de base dos comportamentos correspondentes à HS, elaboração da hierarquia dos comportamentos que indicaram déficit segundo as normas de análise do IHS e treino em registro de automonitoração; (3) Intervenção: leitura de um texto sobre habilidades sociais, apresentação da lista de direitos humanos básicos, aplicação do Questionário Construcional de Goldiamond adaptado e treino em registro de automonitoramento; (4) Re-avaliação das HS: reaplicação do IHS; (5) Follow-up: avaliação da manutenção dos ganhos obtidos com o estudo; e (6) Encerramento: entrevista devolutiva para explanação dos resultados do estudo ao participante. Os resultados sugerem que a intervenção promoveu o desenvolvimento de HS na participante, haja vista a interpretação da evolução da participante apresentada de acordo com a variação do Escore Z e da representação gráfica de significância clínica e mudança confiável.

O presente trabalho consiste na interpretação de informações gravimétricas e aeromagnetométricas (Projeto Geofísico Brasil-Canadá - PGBC) da região setentrional da Faixa de Dobramentos Araguaia, envolvendo uma área de aproximadamente 129.000km2, compreendida entre os meridianos 47°50’W e 50°30’W e paralelos 4°50'S e 9°00'S. Abrange porções sudeste do Estado do Pará, noroeste de Goiás e oeste do Maranhão. Os trabalhos de campo constaram de levantamentos gravimétrico e altimétrico, ao longo de rodovias que constituem a rede viária regional, e os resultados obtidos, após correções e reduções, foram então organizados de forma a constituírem um mapa de anomalias Bouguer, apresentado em escala 1:500.000. O padrão gravimétrico da faixa de dobramentos Araguaia se caracteriza por mostrar feições predominantemente longitudinais, com curvas isoanômalas de direções submeridianas, concordante com o comportamento litológico-estrutural conhecido para a área. Na porção centro-meridional desse mapa aparece uma zona de anomalia negativa, alongada e intensa (menos de -100mgal), a qual sofre duas importantes inflexões para NW, sendo uma correlacionável ao Lineamento Carajás, e a outra na altura do paralelo 5°30'S. Apresenta zonas de altos gravimétricos, notadamente na porção noroeste (domínio cratônico), relacionada à influência das metavulcânicas do Grupo Grão Pará, e na porção nordeste, devida a massas densas introduzidas na crosta. Destaca-se também o relativo alto gravimétrico acompanhando o flanco oriental do eixo de ocorrência das braquidobras, podendo ser devido a massas excedentes colocadas sob essa região, através de esforços tectônicos, produzindo elevações do nível de base da crosta e consequentemente do embasamento. De forma genérica o flanco oriental da faixa mostra um gradiente mais intenso que o ocidental, devido principalmente à configuração geométrica das estruturas nesse setor. Da mesma forma merece destaque o gradiente regional ascendente de sul para norte. A análise das cartas de intensidade magnética do PGBC fornecem condições à individualização de diversos domínios magnéticos, perfeitamente correlacionáveis litológico e estruturalmente com as unidades geotectônicas que compõem o arcabouço regional, assim como suas subunidades. A execução de modelamento simples, quer para as informações gravimétricas como magnetométricas, objetivaram fornecer subsídios semi-quantitativos à interpretação, de forma a auxiliar no estabelecimento do padrão geométrico do embasamento da faixa de dobramentos Araguaia, assim como das estruturas a ela impostas. Assim, por meio do processamento das informações gravimétricas, verificou-se um padrão geométrico na forma de fatias imbricadas, estabelecidas sobre o substrato. A grande anomalia negativa da porção centro-meridional da faixa pode estar relacionada a uma deficiência de massa profunda (depressão na base da crosta) ou ainda a uma associação entre contraste de densidade e espessamento do pacote de supracrustais, nessa porção. O baixo gravimétrico da porção sudeste da área, entre Guarai e Tupirama, é devido a uma depressão do embasamento, da mesma forma como a anomalia negativa associada ao Lineamento Carajás está relacionada a uma estrutura sinformal conhecida.
