Purpose: To determine the frequency of glaucoma and evaluate the behavior of 24-hour intraocular pressure in patients with the obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS). Methods: Eleven consecutive patients with OSAS, diagnosed by polysonography, were avaliated in a cross-sectional study. Demographic data were analyzed: age, sex, race/color, weight, height and associated diseases. The patients were submitted to complete ophthalmologic examination, including the visual field, as well as to 24-hour intra-ocular pressure (IOP) evaluation by an applanation tonometer at 9h, 12h, 15h, 18h, 24h and 6h in the lying and sitting positions. The diagnostic criterion for glaucoma was alteration of the visual field (VF) compatible with glaucoma and one or more of the following alterations: cup-disc ratio >= 0.7, hemorrhage, wedge-shaped defect, bayonet-shaped vessels, Hoyt's sign, asymmetry > than 0.2 between cup/disc ratio of the eyes. The angle should be opened without alterations. Results: 9 (82%) of 11 patients showed glaucoma or were suspected to have glaucoma, 9% of which exhibited normal tension glaucoma and 73% were suspected to have glaucoma for presenting alterations in the optic nerve or ocular hypertension. The mean for the IOP values of the 11 patients was observed to be the highest at 6 o'clock, when they were lying down. Variations of IOP >= 5 mmHg occurred in 7 (64%) of the patients, and variations of up to 14 mmHg and IOP peaks of up to 32 mmHg were observed. Conclusion: OSAS may be an important risk factor for the development of glaucoma, particularly that of normal tension glaucoma. Patients with OSAS must be referred to an ophthalmologist and those professionals must be attentive to the association of sleep disorders in patients with open-angle glaucoma.

Este estudo surgiu da necessidade das indústrias cerâmicas do pólo de Santa Gertrudes (SP) se adaptarem às mudanças do comportamento do mercado e às exigências dos órgãos ambientais em relação aos riscos causados pela geração de poeira na fase de preparação da massa. Assim, o processo de preparação de massa via úmida pode ser uma alternativa para esta substituição, sendo necessária a obtenção de uma barbotina que apresente um comportamento reológico adequado ao processo e ao consumo de energia. Foram feitas medidas de viscosidade, tensão de cisalhamento e taxa de cisalhamento com viscosímetro rotacional, tendo como parâmetros de controle, o teor de sólidos da barbotina e a granulometria. Desta forma, foram verificadas variações das suspensões, como o comportamento pseudoplástico e a tixotropia. Também foi analisada a dependência do comportamento reológico com a mineralogia das argilas, obtida por difração de raios X. Os resultados das curvas reológicas mostraram-se muito coerentes com a mineralogia determinada, indicando uma piora do comportamento reológico no sentido da base para o topo da Formação Corumbataí, devido à alteração supérgena e presença de esmectitas.

Hydrated compounds prepared in aqueous solution by reaction between amidosulfonic acid [H3NSO3] and suspensions of rare earth hydroxycarbonates [Ln2(OH)x(CO3)y.zH2O] were characterized by elemental analysis (% Ln, % N and % H), infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and thermogravimetry (TG). The compounds presented the stoichiometry Ln(NH2SO3)3.xH2O (where x = 1, 5, 2.0 or 3.0). The IR spectra showed absorptions characteristic of H2O molecules and NH2SO3 groups. Degree of hydration, thermal decomposition steps and formation of stable intermediates of the type [Ln2(SO4)3] and (Ln2O2SO4), besides formation of their oxides, was determined by thermogravimetry.

Tetrahydroborate complexes of copper (I) with bidentate phosphines, [Cu(η 2-BH 4)(dppm)] (1), [Cu(η 2-BH 4)(dppe)] (2), [Cu(η 2-BH 4)(cis-dppet)] (3) and [Cu(η 2-BH 4)(dppb)] (4) (dppm = bis(diphenylphosphino)methane; dppe = 1,2-bis(diphenylphosphino) ethane; cis-dppet = 1,2-cis(diphenylphosphino)ethene; dppb = 1,4-bis(diphenylphosphino)butane) were prepared and characterized by elemental analysis, infrared spectroscopy, NMR and thermogravimetric analysis. The IR data for 1-4 showed bands typical of a bidentate coordination of BH 4 group to the copper atom and the 31P{ 1H} NMR spectra indicated that the phosphorous atoms are chelating the metal centre. The thermal behavior of the compounds was investigated and suggested that their thermal stability is influenced by the phosphines. Their thermal stability decreased as follows: [Cu(η 2-BH 4)(dppe)] (2) > [Cu(η 2-BH 4)(dppm)] (1) > [Cu(η 2-BH 4)(dppb)] (4) > [Cu(η 2-BH 4)(cis-dppet)] (3). According to thermal analysis and X-ray diffraction patterns all compounds decomposed giving Cu(BO 2) 2, CuO, CuO 2 and Cu as final products.
