Epidemiological and clinical characteristics of nosocomial candidiasis in university hospitals in Cuiaba - Mato Grosso, Brazil

Background: Fungal infections are emerging as an important cause of human disease, especially among hospitalized patients with serious underlying disease and several risk factors. Aims: To evaluate epidemiological and clinical characteristics of patients with nosocomial candidiasis in university hospitals in Cuiaba - MT, Brazil. Methods: A descriptive study of 91 patients admitted to university hospitals in Cuiaba - MT, with clinical and laboratory diagnosis of nosocomial candidiasis, over a 20-month period. Results: A rate for nosocomial infections by Candida spp. of 5 per 1000 admissions, proportional mortality of 14.4% and lethality of 53.8% were determined. The patient age ranged from 29 days to 82 years-old, among which, 74.7% were adults and 25.3% children. The intensive care units contributed with the highest number of cases of infection by Candida spp. (69.2%). The most important underlying disease was gastrointestinal tract disease (11%). Prematurity and low birth weight were the most important risk factors among newborns. The use of antibiotics, invasive procedures, H-2 blockers, multiple blood transfusions and stay length of >= 21 days were the most frequent risk factors among adults. Candida albicans was the most common species in all cases. Conclusions: In this study, C. albicans was the most frequently detected species in candidiasis and risk factors increased the susceptibility of hospitalized patients to acquiring a nosocomial infection by Candida spp. (C) 2011 Revista Iberoamericana de Micologia.

Antartica 788, Casa 26, Residencial Villas Boas, Ribeirao da Ponte, Cuiaba, MT 78040-500. Brasil. E-mail: redoria@uol.com.brThe development of intracapsullar masses at the dorsal aspect of the metacarpofalangeal joint for a period of several months is commonly secondary to the chronic synovitis. Although it is known as villonodular synovitis in horses probably is better to refer it as chronic proliferative synovitis. The most common causes are the non-treated osteocondral fractures of the dorsal portion of the proximal phalanx. In addition, the development of villonodular masses follows the degenerative process in the joint. A case of a lame animal is reported at the present study. The correct diagnosis and the adequate therapeutic propositions were given based on the clinical examination, therapeutic local-anesthetic test and radioghaphic and ultrasonographic imaging exams. The development of a criterious identification of this disease must be based on clinical findings, radiographic and ultrasonographic exams which assume fundamental importance to the treatment and prognostic. The aim of this study is to describe the clinical, radiographic and ultrasonographic findings' allowing the identification and diagnosis of chronic proliferative synovitis at the thoracic metacarpofalangeal joint in the horse.

Caracterização da piscicultura na microrregião da baixada cuiabana, Mato Grosso, Brasil

The objective of this study was to characterize the fish farms located in the lowland micro region in Cuiaba, MT, through interviews with 26 selected farmers which represent the universe of fish farms that are active. Qualitative data were subjected to statistical Chi-square test to diagnose the existence of correlation between them with 95% confidence. These results support the conclusion that the species that compose the group of round fish are present in 100% of fish farms, accounting 88.2% of production. The difference is that production exclusively in nurseries and the largest area of shallow water, with production in higher scale than elsewhere in the country, with prospects of growth in area and productivity. Some actions should be implemented: legislation objectively and with sufficient qualified personnel to inspect the enterprises, applied research in food management and feed production with better price and quality, technical and administrative management, use of juveniles with proven genetics and monitoring of water quality. Fish farming is the main source of income funding for 67.5% of farmers interviewed. The size of the fish farms did not affect the variables related to implementation, conduct and management of the activity. The demand and price of feed are the variables that most directs the decision making of farmers. The main marketing channel used by medium and large farmers is exclusively, the slaughterhouses. The main part of fish is sold processed.

A CUIABÁ-SANTARÉM (BR-163) NO CONTEXTO DA OCUPAÇÃO DA AMAZÔNIA BRASILEIRA

Las décadas de 1970 y 1980 fueron marcadas por la disminución rápida de las superficies ocupadas por las florestas tropicales. Este fenómeno es particularmente espectacular en Brasil donde se estima que 551.000 km2 de la floresta amazónica fueron destruidos para una mise en valeur agrícola (agropecuaria). El caso de Mato Grosso es muy revelador de esa evolución en razón de la extensión de las superficies conquistadas por la agricultura en detrimento de la floresta y también en función de la diversidad de los paisajes preexistentes y de las formas actuales de ocupación de los llamados “espacios vacíos”. La Amazonía Mato-Grossense es la porción del territorio que se extiende al norte del paralelo 16º S y cuyo drenaje es en gran parte dominado por los principales afluentes del río Amazonas: Araguaia, Xingu, Teles Pires/Tapajós, Madeira/Guaporé. En la década de 1970 el gobierno brasileño transformó en proyecto de estrategia militar la ocupación territorial de la Amazonía, aplicando como doctrina los eslóganes: (a) Seguridad y Desarrollo e (b) Integrar para no entregar, ya que temía la influencia del modelo Cubano, materializado en América Latina a partir de la presencia notoria del Che Guevara en Bolivia. Entre 1970 y 1974 el Instituto Nacional de Colonización y Reforma Agraria (INCRA) dio prioridad al asentamiento de colonos pobres en los estados de Rondonia y Mato Grosso, conforme la propuesta del proyecto POLONOROESTE, atendiendo tres objetivos básicos: (1) Objetivo Económico: promover la agricultura teniendo como meta el aumento de la producción de alimentos para abastecer el mercado interno y para la exportación; (2) Objetivo Demográfico: frenar el éxodo rural y reorientar, para la Amazonía, el flujo que se dirigía para las grandes metrópolis del Sureste de Brasil; (3) Objetivo Social: disminuir las tensiones sociales provocadas por el latifundio en el Nordeste y por el minifundio en el Sur del país. Como estrategias de ocupación una serie de programas especiales de desarrollo del Gobierno Federal fueron implementados, entre los cuales destacamos: -         Pavimentación de la carretera BR-163, uniendo Campo Grande/MS a Cuiabá/MT; -         Pavimentación de la carretera BR-364, uniendo Goiás/GO a Cuiabá/MT; -         Creación de la Universidad Federal de Mato Grosso; -         Extensión de la primera gran línea de transmisión de energía eléctrica desde Cachoeira Dourada/MS até Cuiaba/MT; -         Implementación de programas especiales para la ocupación del “cerrado”[1]/POLOCENTRO que financió la ocupación de 1 millón de hectáreas de “cerrados” por la agropecuaria en el Norte de Mato Grosso; -         La pequeña producción de subsistencia de Mato Grosso sufrió los primeros impactos de los colonos gauchos y paranaenses. La metodología adoptada para investigar como esas acciones definen/redefinen las dinámicas territoriales y, evidentemente, se plasman en el paisaje motivando una serie de impactos socioambientales, consiste en investigaciones de campo (observaciones empíricas, entrevistas, tomadas de fotos y filmes) y en los análisis de imágenes LANDSAT TM. Partiendo del presupuesto de que esas transformaciones acontecen, raramente de manera completamente espontánea y anárquica, es posible identificar las estructuras espaciales suficientemente recurrentes para que el estudio de toda esa región se preste a una tentativa de definir las configuraciones espaciales típicas, sus lógicas de funcionamiento y sus evoluciones temporales. El objetivo mayor es diagnosticar el estado actual de la ocupación del suelo, así como pronosticar las alteraciones futuras. La colonización agrícola y su corolario de deforestación – promedio anual de 20.000 km2 – está en plena dinámica con el apoyo de los gobiernos – Federal y Estadual -, de los avances tecnológicos y de grandes grupos capitalistas (nacionales e internacionales).

Equine infectios anemia of traction equids in the Cuiaba Districty, MT, Brazil

The present study it had for objective to search the AIE in equids traction of the city of Cuiaba, of which if it extracted an inquiry epidemiologist and a sampling of blood serum of 113 animals (110 equines and 3 mules) that they transited for the public ways. The sampling of the animals was random how much to the age (of 8 months the 20 years) and sex of the animals where 67 (60.9%) were of females and 46 (41.8%), of males, with a average of 22 working hours per week. The samples of blood had been analyzed by means of the technique of AGID test. The results of the blood tests had indicated that of the 110 examined samples of blood serum of the equines, thirteen (11.8%) were positive, being seven of female (10.4% of the total of females) and 6 males (13.0% of the total of males), all no symptoms animals and the age of the positive animals was concentrated in the band of 6 10 years, representing 84.6% (11 animals). The results of the blood tests had also indicated that of three mules analyzed, 1 (33.3%) was positive.

Os granitóides brasilianos da faixa de dobramentos paraguai, MS e MT

The Brazilian Granitic Province from southeastern Mato Grosso do Sul and Mato Grosso region, central western Brazil, can be divided into two major groups and/or magmatic events related to the evolution of the Paraguay Fold Belt. The southern portion crops out in Mato Grosso do Sul State and is constituted by the Taboco, Rio Negro, Coxim and Sonora massifs forming NE-SW oriented, elongated small intrusions. The north portion crops out in Mato Grosso State and is constituted by the São Vicente, Araguaiana and Lajinha batholiths. Lithogeochemical aspects of the northern granites point to Type-I granites ranging from K calc-alkaline to high-K, peraluminous to metaluminous in composition, generated in an environment of continental collision and/or post- collision decompression. The southern granites are Type-I, from K calc-alkaline to high-K, peraluminous to subordinate metalummous, in a syn-collision continental arc environment with the exception of some pre-collisional facies from the Rio Negro Massif. The southern granites have less SiO 2 and K 2O, and are less differentiated and evolved than granites from the northern region. The four southern granites can be grouped into two subordinate sets with the degree of differentiation increasing from South (Taboco and Rio Negro) to North (Coxim and Sonora). The granitic rocks are characterized by a magmatism generated by melting of material from the lower crust which suggests that in this province the formation from non-cogenetic magmas with diversified compositions and distinct degrees of fractioning reaching more steady consolidated environments at the end of the collisional event in the southeastern Amazonian Craton.

IS-RT-PCR assay detection of MT-MMP in a human breast cancer cell line

The in situ-reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (IS-RT-PCR) is a method that allows the direct localisation of gene expression. The method utilises the dual buffer mediated activity of the enzyme rTth DNA polymerase enabling both reverse transcription and DNA amplification. Labelled nucleoside triphosphates allow the site of expression to be labelled, rather than the PCR primers themselves, giving a more accurate localisation of transcript expression and decreased background than standard in situ hybridisation (ISH) assays. The MDA-MB-231 human breast carcinoma (HBC) cell line was assayed via the IS-RT-PCR technique, using primers encoding MT-MMP (membrane-type matrix metalloproteinase) and human β-actin. Our results clearly indicate baseline expression of MT-MMP in the relatively invasive MDA-MB-231 cell line at a signal intensity similar to the housekeeping gene β-actin, and results following induction with Concanavalin A (Con A) are consistent with our previous results obtained via Northern blotting.

High level of MT-MMP expression is associated with invasiveness of cervical cancer cells

MMP-2 (gelatinase A) has been associated with the invasive potential of many cancer cells both in vitro and in vivo. It is now becoming clear that the activation of this enzyme might be a key step in tumor invasion. This activation process has been shown to be a membrane-associated pathway inducible by various agents such as collagen type I, concanavalin A or TGF-β, but its physiological regulation is still largely unresolved. MT-MMP was recently discovered and described as a potential gelatinase-A activator. In the present study, we investigated the expression of MT-MMP (membrane-type metalloproteinase) in cervical cancer cells both in vitro and in vivo. Comparing several in vitro-transformed cervical cell lines, previously shown to display different invasive potentials, our results showed that the ability of cells to overexpress MT-MMP mRNA following ConA induction correlated with their ability to activate gelatinase A and with a highly invasive behavior. Moreover, using immunohistochemistry and in situ hybridization, we found a higher level of MT-MMP expression in invasive cervical carcinoma and lymphnode metastases compared to its expression in non-invasive CIN III lesions. Our in vivo observations also clearly demonstrated a cooperation between stromal and tumor cells for the production of MT-MMP. Taken together, our results clearly correlated high level MT-MMP expression with invasiveness, and thus suggested that MT-MMP might play a crucial role in cervical tumor invasion.
