La Necrosi Apical Bruna (BAN, brown apical necrosis, segons les sigles en anglès) Es va detectar per primer cop l’any 1997 a Extremadura degut a la severa caiguda de fruits. Avui dia la malaltia és present a quasi totes les zones productores de la mediterrània. Els símptomes difereixen dels provocats per Xanthomonas arboricola pv. juglandis i Gnomonia leptsostyla.. S’observa que els fruits afectats presenten una taca bruna a la zona apical i necrosi dels teixits interiors. El grup de Patologia Vegetal de la Universitat de Girona participa i dirigeix la tasca sobre l’etiologia de la BAN dins la xarxa europea d’investigació en bacteris patògens de fruiters ,COST873. Hi ha una certa controvèrsia en la definició dels símptomes i agents causals. Tots els grups coincideixen en afirmar que es tracta d’una malaltia complexa amb diferents organismes implicats

Schistosomiasis is one of the world`s greatly neglected tropical diseases, and its control is largely dependent on a single drug, praziquantel. Here, we report the in vitro effect of piplartine, an amide isolated from Piper tuberculatum (Piperaceae), on Schistosoma mansoni adult worms. A piplartine concentration of 15.8 mu M reduced the motor activity of worms and caused their death within 24 h in a RPMI 1640 medium. Similarly, the highest sub-lethal concentration of piplartine (6.3 mu M) caused a 75% reduction in egg production in spite of coupling. Additionally, piplartine induced morphological changes on the tegument, and a quantitative analysis carried out by confocal microscopy revealed an extensive tegumental destruction and damage in the tubercles. This damage was dose-dependent in the range of 15.8-630.2 mu M. At doses higher than 157.6 mu M, piplartine induced morphological changes in the oral and ventral sucker regions of the worms. It is the first time that the schistosomicidal activity has been reported for piplartine. Published by Elsevier Inc.

OBJETIVO: A infecção hospitalar é uma importante causa de morbidade e mortalidade na população idosa. O estudo realizado teve como objetivo avaliar a ocorrência e os fatores de risco da infecção hospitalar. MÉTODOS: Realizou-se estudo prospectivo em uma amostra de 322 idosos com 60 anos e mais, internados em um hospital universitário, entre setembro de 1999 e fevereiro de 2000. O cálculo da amostra foi feito pela fórmula de Fisher e Belle, com intervalo de confiança de 0,95%, de um total de 760 idosos internados, proporcionalmente ao número de pacientes em cada unidade de internação, no ano de 1997. Os critérios para definição da infecção hospitalar foram os do Center for Diseases and Prevention Control. Para a análise estatística dos dados foram utilizados o odds ratio e regressão logística. RESULTADOS: A taxa de infecção hospitalar encontrada foi de 23,6%. As topografias prevalentes de infecção hospitalar foram infecção respiratória (27,6%), do trato urinário (26,4%) e do sítio cirúrgico (23,6%). O tempo de internação dos pacientes sem infecção hospitalar foi de 6,9 dias e dos com infecção hospitalar foi de 15,9 (p<0,05). A taxa de mortalidade dos pacientes internados foi de 9,6% e a de letalidade dos pacientes com infecção hospitalar de 22,9% (p<0,05). Os fatores de risco encontrados para infecção hospitalar foram colangiografia (odds ratio (OR)=46,4, intervalo de confiança 95% (IC 95%)=4,4-485); diabetes melito (OR=9,9, IC 95%=4,4-22,3); doença pulmonar obstrutiva crônica (OR=8,3, IC 95%=2,9-23,7); cateterismo urinário (OR=5, IC 95%=2,7-11,8); internação com infecção comunitária (OR=3,9, IC 95%=1,7-8,9) e ventilação mecânica (OR=3,8, IC 95%=1,9-6,3). CONCLUSÕES: A infecção hospitalar apresentou incidência e letalidade elevadas e aumentou o tempo de internação dos idosos estudados.

The cultivation of grapes is one of the most traditional cultures and the world's oldest one. In Brazil, cultivars occupy an area of approximately 90 thousand hectares, covering the south, southeast and northeast, in latitudes ranging from 30 º 56 '15''S up to 5 º 11' 15''S. The culture of the vine may be the target of the attack of some diseases and pests, and currently the main concern for growers is the subterranean mealybug, Eurhizococcus brasiliensis (Hemiptera: Margarodidae), known as pearl-ground. This arthropod infests the roots causing a progressive languish of the vine, even causes its death. In southern Brazil it is known that some species of ants can disperse pearl-ground for short distances, however, there is no information about that in the State of Sao Paulo. Thus, it is extremely important to perform studies with this focus on wine regions in this State. Therefore, this study aimed to identify the species of underground ant community in different grape varieties found in vineyards in the town of São Roque – SP, Brazil. With that purpose, samples were collected within one year. We used underground pitfalls spread across twelve points. In each of the points were placed two traps, one containing honey and the other containing sardine as attractive. The results revealed the presence of three morphospecies of ants in Niágara Rosada and four in other grape varieties, there was no significant difference in the species richness among the cultivars (Kruskal-Wallis - 0.33, p = 0.5). In both trials, the most frequent species was Brachymyrmex sp.4, suggesting that there is no dominance of distinct species of Niágara Rosada and the other grape varieties. There was no dissimilarity in species richness of the ones visiting honey or sardines (Kruskal-Wallis - 0.08, p = 0.7) and the analysis of variance indicated a great similarity in species richness between the rainy and dry seasons (Kruskal-Wallis - 0.09, p = 0.7)

Introduction: Hospital-acquired urinary tract infection (HAUTI) is an important cause of morbidity in the elderly population. Objective: Evaluate the occurrence of HAUTI and risk factors associated with it. Method: This is a prospective study of a sample of 332 elderly people, interned in a university hospital. Criteria for defining infection were established by the Center for Diseases and Prevention Control. Statistical analysis of data used calculation of frequencies, odds ratio and logistic regression. The rate of hospital infection was 23.6%. The prevalent topographies of infection were respiratory infections (27.6%), urinary tract infections (26.4%) and surgical wound infections (23.6%, with 21, 20 and 19 episodes, respectively. The HAUTI incidence density associated with urinary catheterization was 24.2 infections by 1,000 catheter-days. The length of hospital stay of patients without nosocomial infection was 6.9 days and with HAUTI was increased in 10.4 (p<0.05).The rate of mortality of patients with HAUTI was 20%. Pathogens were isolated in 75% of episodes of HAUTI and the prevalent were: Escherichia coli (33%) and Pseudomonas aeruginosa (20%). Risk factors found for HAUTI were urinary catheterization implementation (odds ratio (OR) = 43.1; 95% confidence interval (95 CI%) = 3.9 – 311.1), hospitalization with community infection (OR= 21.9; 95% CI = 4.9 – 97.9); vascular diseases (OR=14; 95% CI = 2 – 98); diabetes mellitus (OR= 5.5; 95% CI = 1.4 – 21) and urinary catheterization by more than three days (OR=3.7; 95% CI = 1 – 13.8). Conclusions: HAUTI presented elevated incidence and it increased the length of hospital stay.

A partir de su fundación, la Sociedad Nacional de Agricultura (1838) comenzó a publicar revistas sobre temas agrarios. Generó así un singular corpus documental, dentro del cual el presente trabajo examina los textos dedicados a fruticultura. Se detectaron cerca de 300 artículos sobre el tema, referidos, principalmente, a la forma de cultivar las plantas, enfermedades y plagas, conservación de frutas y exportación. Se detectan relaciones con publicaciones agrarias extranjeras, sobre todo de EE.UU. y Argentina. La influencia de la SNA contribuyó a cambiar el paisaje de la fruticultura en Chile, según se reflejó en el censo agrícola de 1936
