Lifetime Prevalence of Transient Loss of Consciousness in an Urban Russian Population

Abstract Background: Most international studies on epidemiology of transient loss of consciousness (TLC) were performed many years ago. There are no data about the lifetime prevalence of TLC in Russia. Objective: To identify the lifetime prevalence and presumed mechanisms of TLC in an urban Russian population. Methods: 1796 individuals (540 males [30.1%] and 1256 females [69.9%]) aged 20 to 69 years (mean age 45.8 ± 11.9 years) were randomly selected and interviewed within the framework of multicentre randomised observational trial. Results: The overall prevalence of TLC in the studied population was 23.3% (418/1796), with the highest proportion (28%) seen in 40-49 year age group. TLC was significantly more common in women than in men (27.5% vs 13.5%). The mean age of patients at the time of the first event was 16 (11; 23) years, with 333 (85%) individuals experiencing the first episode of TLC under 30 years. The average time after the first episode of TLC was 27 (12; 47) years. The following mechanisms of TLC were determined using the questionnaire: neurally-mediated syncope (56.5%), arrhythmogenic onset of syncope (6.0%), nonsyncopal origin of TLC (1.4%), single episode during lifetime (2.1%). Reasons for TLC remained unidentified in 34% cases. 27 persons (6.5%) reported a family history of sudden death, mainly patients with presumably arrhythmogenic origin (24%). Conclusion: Our findings suggest that the overall prevalence of TLC in individuals aged 20-69 years is high. The most common cause of TLC is neurally-mediated syncope. These data about the epidemiology can help to develop cost-effective management approaches to TLC.

A farinha de Rami como sucedâneo da farinha de fêno da alfafa, na alimentação de pintos

The ramie leaf meal was used in a feeding trial, in comparison with alfalfa hay meal in the range of 5% of the ration. Each lot consisted of two pens of 45 White American chicks was raised in batteries for 6 weeks. From results of the analisis of variance the AA. concluded for the superiority of the ramie leaf meal (586,4 g) over the alfalfa hay meal (540,1 g) in the conditions of the experiment.

A influência de grãos pretos em ligas com cafés de bebida mole

Os autores estudam a influência de grãos pretos em ligas com cafés brasileiros de bebida Mole. Foram ensaiadas porcentagens crescentes de grãos pretos: 0, 1, 2, 5, 10, 15, 20, 30, 40 e 50%. Realizaram-se dois ensaios de degustação em blocos incompletos equilibrados, com t = 10 tratamentos, k = 4 parcelas por bloco, r = 6 repetições, b = 15 blocos, X = 2. Cada parcela era formada por 3 xícaras de tipo padrão e foi provada por 3 degustadores, que davam sua opinião xícara por xícara. Os dados coletados são, pois, 1080, isto é, 540 para cada um dos dois ensaios. Mas cada ensaio tinha realmente apenas 60 parcelas, a cada uma das quais correspondia a média das 9 opiniões sôbre ela emitidas (3 degustadores x 3 xícaras). As bases deste método experimental são as expostas em FAIRBANKS BARBOSA e outros (1962), com as modificações indicadas. Os dois ensaios deram resultados bem concordantes, que levaram às seguintes conclusões: 1 - Os grãos pretos prejudicam sensìvelmente a bebida, e seu efeito é aproximadamente linear. 2 - Porcentagens de grãos pretos de 10% para cima causam prejuizo sensível. 3 - A equação de regressão é Y = 3,792 - 0,0379 X, onde X é a porcentagem de grãos pretos e Y é o número de pontos correspondentes à bebida.

Keimzahlbestimmung bei rezepturmäßig hergestellten Cremes und Hydrogelen

Das Ziel der vorliegenden Arbeit war es, die Methoden zur Bestimmung der Keimzahl in der Kosmetik kennenzulernen und mit einer ausgewählten Methode die Keimzahl in rezepturmäßig hergestellten Cremes und Hydrogelen zu überprüfen. In dieser Arbeit wurden die Keimzahlen in den Cremes und Hydrogelen, die in verschiedenen Herstellungsumgebungen hergestellt wurden, bestimmt, um die Herstellungsumgebung im Labor und die Wirksamkeit von den in den Cremes und Gelen eingesetzten Konservierungsstoffen zu kontrollieren.

Ictiofauna da praia de Jaguaribe, Itamaracá, Pernambuco

Com o objetivo de analisar a diversidade da ictiofauna na praia de Jaguaribe, localizada na ilha de Itamaracá - PE, foram realizadas quatro coletas (abril e novembro de 2003 e março e agosto de 2004) com 10 arrastos cada, feitos com redes de arrasto. Um total de 25 espécies e 24 gêneros foram registrados compreendendo 7 ordens e 15 famílias. A ordem Perciformes foi a mais freqüente, representando 82,25% do total de peixes amostrados. Houve predominância dos representantes da família Sciaenidae (49,40%) e a espécie mais abundante foi Ophioscion punctatissimus Meek & Hildebrand, 1925, com aproximadamente 40,77% do total das espécies. Na análise da diversidade de Shannon, o mês de novembro foi o que obteve maior diversidade (0,805) e eqüitabilidade (0,843) e o mês de março, o que obteve a menor diversidade (0,562) e eqüitabilidade (0,540). Uma tendência de maior abundância da ictiofauna foi observada no período chuvoso, sugerindo que as variações pluviométricas afetam a comunidade de peixes local.

Fish assemblages in two sandy beaches in lower Purus river, Amazonas, Brazil

Fish assemblages from two sandy beaches in the lower Purus river (Amazonas, Brazil) were compared. Four sampling groups were represented by: day and night samples in sandy beach inside the Reserva Biológica de Abufari (biological reserve) and day and night samples in the Reserva de Desenvolvimento Sustentável Piagaçu-Purus (sustainable development reserve). Samples were collected during low water levels (November) in 2007. The fish were sampled by means of seines with mesh size of 5 mm between opposing knots, 11 m long and 6 m wide. A total of 112 fish species belonging to nine orders and 27 families was captured. The vast majority of the dominant forms consisted of small fishes (< 100 mm SL) or juveniles. Samples collected in Abufari at night presented more specimens (3,540), higher richness (84 spp.), larger total biomass (76,614 g) and higher diversity (H'= 2.57) than the other groups. The composition of fish assemblages was significantly different among all analyzed groups (ANOSIM, p < 0.0001, R= 0.71). NMDS analysis also clustered all species in four distinct groups according to species composition per period and site. SIMPER analyses showed that 80% of variation of species composition among the groups examined was due to 12 species. However, fish composition did not show any correlation with the abiotic factors examined. Different levels of use in both reserves may explain differences in fish composition.

Countervailing power? Collusion in markets with decentralized trade

We consider the collective incentives of buyers and sellers to form cartels in markets where trade is realized through decentralized pairwise bargaining. Cartels are coalitions of buyers or sellers that limit market participation and compensate inactive members for abstaining from trade. In a stable market outcome, cartels set Nash equilibrium quantities and cartel memberships are immune to defections. We prove that the set of stable market outcomes is non-empty and we provide its full characterization. Stable market outcomes are of two types: (i) at least one cartel actively restrains trade and the levels of market participation are balanced, or (ii) only one cartel, eventually the cartel that forms on the long side of the market, is active and it reduces trade slightly below the opponent's.

Coliformes fecais em águas de esgoto: I. Resistência a antibióticos, metais pesados e colicinogenia

Análise bacteriológica de ordem qualitativa foi desenvolvida em duas estações de tratamento de esgoto da cidade do Rio de Janeiro no período de 1984 a 1985. A pesquisa considerou o isolamento e a identificação de 540 culturas de Escherichia coli, advindas de afluentes e efluentes. Estudou-se a resistência a oito antimicrobianos (sulfadiazina, estreptomicina, tetraciclina, cloranfenicol, canamicina, ampicilina, ácido nalidíxico e gentamicina) e a três metais pesados (sulfato de cobre, cloreto de mercúrio e sulfato de zinco), além da colicinogenia. Foi possivel a detecção de percentuais até 95 para culturas isoladas dos efluentes com marcadores genéticos, contrapondo-se com taxas ao redor de 70% para aquelas provindas dos afluentes.
