Introduction: Contrast-induced nephropathy is one of the main causes of acute kidney injury and increased hospital-acquired morbidity and mortality. The use of sodium bicarbonate for nephroprotection has emerged as a preventative strategy; however, its efficacy is controversial compared to other strategies, such as hydration using 0.9% saline solution. Objective: To compare the effectiveness of sodium bicarbonate vs. hydration using 0.9% saline solution to prevent contrast-induced acute kidney injury. Methods: A systematic review of studies registered in the COCHRANE, PUBMED, MEDLINE, LILACS, SCIELO and EMBASE databases was conducted. Randomized controlled studies that evaluated the use of 0.9% saline solution vs. sodium bicarbonate to prevent contrast-induced nephropathy were included. Results: A total of 22 studies (5,686 patients) were included. Sodium bicarbonate did not decrease the risk of contrast-induced nephropathy (RD= 0.00; 95% CI= -0.02 to 0.03; p= 0.83; I2= 0%). No significant differences were found in the demand for renal replacement therapy (RD= 0.00; 95% CI= -0.01 to 0-01; I2= 0%; p= 0.99) or in mortality (RD= -0.00; 95% CI= -0.001 to 0.001; I2= 0%; p= 0.51). Conclusions: Sodium bicarbonate administration is not superior to the use of 0.9% saline solution for preventing contrast-induced nephropathy in patients with risk factors, nor is it better at reducing mortality or the need for renal replacement therapy.

Riboflavin is a vitamin very important in aerobic organisms, as a precursor of many coenzymes involved in the electron transporter chain. However, after photosensitization of riboflavin with UV or visible light, it generates reactive oxygen species (ROS), which can oxidize the DNA. The repair of oxidative lesions on DNA occurs through the base excision repair pathway (BER), where APE1 endonuclease plays a central role. On the other hand, the nucleotide excision repair pathway (NER) repairs helix-distorting lesions. Recently, it was described the participation of NERproteins in the repair of oxidative damage and in stimulation of repair function fromAPE1. The aim of this research was to evaluate the cytotoxic effects of photosensitized riboflavin (RF*) in cells proficient and deficient in NER, correlating with APE1 expression. For this propose, the cells were treated with RF* and it was performed the cell viability assay, extraction of whole proteins, cells fractionation, immunoblotting, indirect immunofluorescence and analysis of polymorphisms of BER gens. The results evidenced that cells deficient in XPA and CSB proteins were more sensitive to RF*. However, XPC-deficient cells presented similar resistance to MRC5- SV cells, which is proficient in NER. These results indicate that XPA and CSB proteins have an important role on repair of oxidative lesions induced by RF*. Additionally, it was evidenced that single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in BER enzymes may influence in sensitivity of NER-deficient cell lines. Concerning the APE1 expression, the results showed that expression of this protein after treatment with RF* only changed in XPC-deficient cells. Though, it was observed that APE1 is recruited and is bound to chromatin in MRC5-SV and XPA cells after treatment with RF*. The results also showed the induction of DNA damage after treatment with RF*, through the analysis of-H2AX, since the treatment promoted an increase of endogenous levels of this phosphorylated protein, which acts signaling double strand-break on DNA. On the other hand, in XPC-deficient cells, regardless of resistance of RF*, the endogenous levels of APE1 are extremely reduced when compared with other cell lines and APE1 is not bound to chromatin after treatment with RF*. These results conclude that RF* was able to induce cell death in NERdeficient cells, where XPA and CSB cells were more sensitive when compared with MRC5-SV and XPC-deficient cells. This last result is potentially very interesting, since XPC-deficient cell line presents low levels of APE1. Additionally, the results evidenced that APE1 protein can be involved in the repair of oxidative damage induced by RF*, because APE1 is recruited and bound strongly to chromatin after treatment.

In the semi-arid region of northeastern Brazil, the Atriplex plant genus has been efficient in removing salts from soils irrigated with saline wastewater. However, this removal might not be significant compared with the amount of salts added to the soil by the wastewater irrigation. Considering this aspect, the aim of this work was to evaluate the effectiveness of Atriplex nummularia Lindl plants in the remediation of a soil submitted to saline wastewater irrigation. Despite the known inhibition effect of saline wastewater on soil enzyme activity, the cultivation of Atriplex nummularia Lindl maintained the treated soil enzyme activity levels similar to the ones found in natural soils.

Avaliaram-se, neste trabalho, em condições de baixo e alto teor de fósforo (P) no solo, 51 linhagens de arroz provenientes do Banco Ativo de Germoplasma da Embrapa Arroz e Feijão, com o objetivo de identificar indicadores de eficiência no uso de P e linhagens com eficiência diferenciada no uso desse nutriente. O índice de eficiência do uso de fósforo mostrou ser mais adequado que a produtividade em baixo teor de fósforo no solo, na avaliação da eficiência diferenciada das linhagens no uso do P. Três linhagens, CNA 4634, CNA 4120 e CNA 3178, apresentam bom comportamento produtivo, tanto em alto como em baixo teor de P no solo e 22 mostraram bom comportamento produtivo em alto teor de P no solo; entretanto, não foram eficientes no aproveitamento de baixo P disponível no solo enquanto as demais foram desconsideradas em razão de indicarem baixo comportamento produtivo sob boa disponibilidade de P.

Viver implica em uma série de mudanças, frustrações e problemas que estão sempre a promover a adaptação do organismo. Levar a vida sem estresse é um mito, pois não podemos atuar sem seu estímulo. Entretanto, muito estresse ou a sua ausência pode causar sérios problemas de saúde. A pesquisa tem como relevância científica a colaboração ao entendimento do impacto do estresse na capacidade funcional dos profissionais da equipe de saúde da família, uma vez que a qualidade da assistência e a satisfação profissional estão sendo almejadas, e dependem da conjugação de fatores psicológicos e sociais que exercem marcada influência sobre o comportamento do homem no exercício da profissão. Neste estudo foram investigadas as principais publicações e indicações provenientes dos bancos de dados nacionais (SCIELO) utilizando as palavras-chaves, estresse no trabalho, qualidade da assistência, saúde da família, no período de 1998 a 2009. Valorizando o estado físico-psíquico do profissional, é necessário conhecer as fontes de estresse e os meios para amenizar ou mesmo evitar as conseqüências que ocasiona no processo do trabalho da equipe de saúde da família.
