Sistema de gestão e controlo da atribuição de endereçamento de rede

Com a evolução tecnológica, a informática assumiu um papel fulcral na nossa vida actual tanto numa vertente doméstica como para as mais variadíssimas organizações. As redes IP estão disseminadas por todo o lado, escritórios, habitações, estabelecimentos de ensino, espaços comerciais, com as mais diversas topologias e dimensões, que como qualquer recurso devem ser bem geridas. O presente projecto insere-se neste contexto, pretendendo criar um sistema para dar apoio no controlo e gestão de endereçamento IP dados por um servidor DHCP. A problemática central que este projecto pretende tratar é a detecção da configuração forçada de endereços IP por parte dos utilizadores, notificando tais situações aos administradores de rede. O sistema é constituído por vários componentes como Linux, MySQL, ISC DHCP, SNMP, PHP, APACHE e irá interagir com equipamentos de rede que possuam tabelas de endereços para que a informação, nestas encontradas, seja comparada com a informação dos endereços fornecidos pelo servidor DHCP. O sistema dá suporte a uma página web que pretende auxiliar algumas configurações e fornecer informações estatísticas sobre a rede.

Hysterectomy fractions in New South Wales, 1971-2006

Hysterectomy fractions by age group for particular periods are of interest for: estimating proper population denominators for calculation of disease and procedure rates affecting the cervix and uterus; estimating the target population for Pap test programs, and response rates; and as a way of displaying the cumulative consequences of hysterectomies in a population. Hysterectomy fractions for populations can be determined by direct inquiry via a representative sample survey, or, as in this study, from prior hysterectomy rates of the cohorts of women which compose each age bracket. Hysterectomy data 1979-93 were obtained from the hospital In-patients Statistics Collection (ISC) which covers both public and private hospitals in NSW. Annual population denominators of women were obtained from Census data. Data were modelled by Poisson regression, using five.-year age group (15-greater than or equal to 85 years), annual period, and five-year birth cohort (APC model). Forward- and back-projection of the period effects were undertaken. The resultant NSW hysterectomy fractions by age and period are consistent with fractions obtained from modelled hysterectomy rates for Western Australia (1980-84), and fractions from national representative sample surveys (1989/90 and 1995) for younger women, but not for women aged greater than or equal to 70 years in 1995, which revealed higher hysterectomy fractions than modelled hysterectomy data would suggest. Hysterectomy fractions for NSW women by five-year age group for quinquennia centred on 1971 to 2006 are provided.

Imaging and lung cancer

Lung cancer remains the most common cause of cancer-related mortality in Scotland, accounting for 28.9% of all cancer deaths in 2007. Current guidelines recommend assessment of patient fitness and operability by a multidisciplinary team when selecting management options. Two of the most important prognostic markers are the stage of disease and ECOG performance status. In 1996, the International Association for the Study of Lung Cancer (IASLC) launched a worldwide TNM staging project to create international databases that would be used to continue the excellent efforts of Dr. Cliff Mountain, who pioneered this approach to lung cancer staging in 1973. Successive iterations of tumor, nodule, metastasis (TNM) staging for lung cancer have addressed shortcomings identified by the oncology community. Similarly, the IASLC recognized that it is important that further revisions continue to be made to ensure that the international staging system for lung cancer remains fit for its purpose. The last work of the International Staging Committee (ISC) was the conduct of the study that informed the seventh edition of the international staging system for lung cancer, in 2010. This review of image and staging in non small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), includes a summary of the different noninvasive tests currently available for staging non small cell lung cancer.

Mechanisms for the inhibition of amiloride-sensitive Na+ absorption by extracellular nucleotides in mouse trachea

Purinergic stimulation of airway epithelial cells induces Cl- secretion and modulates Na+ absorption by an unknown mechanism. To gain insight into this mechanism, we used a perfused micro-Ussing chamber to assess transepithelial voltage (V-te) and amiloride-sensitive short-circuit current (Isc-Amil) in mouse trachea. Exposure to apical ATP or UTP (each 100 mumol/l) caused a large initial increase in lumen negative V-te and I-sc corresponding to a transient Cl- secretion, while basolateral application of ATP/UTP induced only a small secretory response. Luminal, but not basolateral, application of nucleotides was followed by a sustained and reversible inhibition of Isc-Amil that was independent of extracellular Ca2+ or activation of protein kinase C and was not induced by carbachol (100 mumol/l) or the Ca2+ ionophore ionomycin (1 mumol/l). Removal of extracellular Cl- or exposure to 200 muM DIDS reduced UTP-mediated inhibition of Isc-Amil Substantially. The phospholipase inhibitor U73122 (10 mumol/l) and pertussis toxin (PTX 200 ng/ml) both attenuated UTP-induced Cl- secretion and inhibition of Isc-Amil. Taken together, these data imply a contribution of Cl- conductance and PTX-sensitive G proteins to nucleotide-dependent inhibition of the amiloride-sensitive Na+ current in the mouse trachea.

Parâmetros agronômicos da cultura do trigo (Triticum aestivum L.) em função de diferentes concentrações de Azospirillum brasiliense e métodos de inoculação.

O uso de inoculantes à base de Azospirillum brasilense vem crescendo no Brasil, como substituição parcial da adubação nitrogenada na cultura do trigo (Triticum aestivum L.). Contudo, a nova tecnologia pode ser afetada pela incompatibilidade com os agrotóxicos utilizados nos tratamentos de sementes. Visando verificar alternativas à aplicação tradicional de inoculantes via sementes, o objetivo deste estudo foi verificar o efeito de doses de inoculante com A. brasilense e métodos de inoculação. O ensaio foi conduzido em casa de vegetação na Embrapa Soja, em Londrina-PR, com trigo (cv. Gaivota) recebendo 1 e 2,5 doses de inoculante (200 e 500 mL 50 kg-1 sementes, respectivamente) e métodos de inoculação [via semente (IS), sulco (ISC), pulverização foliar (IPF) e solo (IPS)] com 75% da dose recomendada de N-mineral (60 kg N ha-1), além de testemunhas sem inoculação e com 100% e 75% N. Foi avaliada a produção de biomassa de plantas (massa da parte aérea seca, MPAS e massa de raízes secas, MRS), N total acumulado na parte aérea (NTPA), teor de clorofila (TC), volume de raízes (VR) e número de perfilhos (NP). Os dados foram submetidos à ANAVA (Duncan, p?0,05). Constatou-se diferença significativa de MRS no tratamento com IPF e 1 dose de inoculante, proporcionando um incremento de 62% em relação à testemunha não inoculada e com 100% N. Esse tratamento também resultou em aumento significativo no NP. Do mesmo modo, o tratamento com IPF com 2,5 doses resultou em aumento significativo de 22,9% no TC em relação à testemunha não inoculada com 75% N. Foi possível observar o efeito positivo de A. brasilense mesmo quando aplicado após a emergência das plântulas. Para o NTPA, o tratamento com IS e 1 dose foi estatisticamente superior em relação ao tratamento não inoculado e com 75% N. A MPAS e o VR não foram influenciados pelos tratamentos. Deste modo, a inoculação por pulverização foliar pode representar uma alternativa à inoculação tradicional nas sementes, podendo ser empregada em situações que haja incompatibilidade com produtos químicos usados no tratamento de sementes.

Effects of tetrodotoxin and ion replacements on the short-circuit current induced by Escherichiacoli heat stable enterotoxin across small intestine of the gerbil (Gerbillus cheesmani)

The effects of mucosally added Escherichia coli heat stable enterotoxin (STa 30 ng ml-1) on the basal short-circuit current (Isc in µA cm-2) across stripped and unstripped sheets of jejuna and ilea taken from fed, starved (4 days, water ad lib) and undernourished (50% control food intake for 21 days) gerbil (Gerbillus cheesmani) were investigated. The effect of neurotoxin tetrodotoxin (TTX 10 µM) and the effects of replacing chloride by gluconate or the effects of removing bicarbonate from bathing buffers on the maximum increase in Isc induced by STa were also investigated. The maximum increase in Isc which resulted from the addition of STa were significantly higher in jejuna and ilea taken from starved and undernourished gerbils when compared with the fed control both using stripped and unstripped sheets. In the two regions of the small intestine taken from fed and starved animals TTX reduced the maximum increase in Isc induced by STa across unstripped sheets only. Moreover in jejuna and ilea taken from undernourished gerbils TTX reduced significantly the maximum increase in Isc induced by STa across stripped and unstripped sheets. Replacing chloride by gluconate decreased the maximum increase in Isc induced by STa across jejuna and ilea taken from undernourished gerbils only. Removing bicarbonates from bathing buffer decreased the maximum increase in Isc across the jejuna and ilea taken from starved and undernourished gerbils.

Hepatic stereology of schistosomiasis mansoni infected-mice fed a high-fat diet

High-fat diets induce weight gain and fatty liver in wild-type mice. Schistosomiasis mansoni infection also promotes hepatic injury. This study was designed to quantify hepatic alterations in schistosomiasis mansoni-infected mice fed a high fat-rich chow compared to mice fed a standard rodent chow, using stereology. Female SW mice fed each either high-fat diet (29% lipids) or standard chow (12% lipids) over 8 months, and then were infected with Schistosoma mansoni cercariae. Four experimental groups were studied: infected mice fed a high-fat diet (IHFC) or standard chow (ISC), uninfected mice fed a high-fat diet (HFC) or standard chow (SC). Mice were sacrificed during early infection (9 weeks from exposure). The following hepatic biometry and the stereology parameters were determined: volume density (hepatocytes [h], sinusoids [s], steatosis [st] and hepatic fibrosis [hf]); numerical density (hepatocyte nuclei - Nv[h]); absolute number of total hepatocyte N[h], normal hepatocyte N[nh], and binucleated hepatocyte N[bh], percentage of normal hepatocyte P[nh] and binucleated hepatocyte P[bh]. IHFC and HFC groups exhibited TC, HDL-C, LDL-C, and body mass significantly greater (p < 0.05) than control group. No significant differences were found regards liver volume (p = 0.07). Significant differences were observed regards P[nh] (p = 0.0045), P[bh] (p = 0.0045), Nv[h] (p = 0.0006), N[h] (p = 0.0125), N[bh] (p = 0.0164) and N[nh] (p = 0.0078). IHFC mice group presented 29% of binucleated hepatocytes compared to HFC group (19%), ISC group (17%) and SC (6%). Volume density was significantly different between groups: Vv[h] (p = 0.0052), Vv[s] (p = 0.0025), Vv[st] (p = 0.0004), and Vv[hf] (p = 0.0007). In conclusion, schistosomiasis mansoni infection with concurrent high-fat diet promotes intensive quantitative changes in hepatic structure, contributing to an increasing on hepatic regeneration.

Epithelial Na+ channel mutants causing Liddle's syndrome retain ability to respond to aldosterone and vasopressin.

Liddle's syndrome is a monogenic form of hypertension caused by mutations in the PY motif of the COOH terminus of beta- and gamma-epithelial Na+ channel (ENaC) subunits. These mutations lead to retention of active channels at the cell surface. Because of the critical role of this PY motif in the stability of ENaCs at the cell surface, we have investigated its contribution to the ENaC response to aldosterone and vasopressin. Mutants of the PY motif in beta- and gamma-ENaC subunits (beta-Y618A, beta-P616L, beta-R564stop, and gamma-K570stop) were stably expressed by retroviral gene transfer in a renal cortical collecting duct cell line (mpkCCDcl4), and transepithelial Na+ transport was assessed by measurements of the benzamil-sensitive short-circuit current (Isc). Cells that express ENaC mutants of the PY motif showed a five- to sixfold higher basal Isc compared with control cells and responded to stimulation by aldosterone (10(-6) M) or vasopressin (10(-9) M) with a further increase in Isc. The rates of the initial increases in Isc after aldosterone or vasopressin stimulation were comparable in cells transduced with wild-type and mutant ENaCs, but reversal of the effects of aldosterone and vasopressin was slower in cells that expressed the ENaC mutants. The conserved sensitivity of ENaC mutants to stimulation by aldosterone and vasopressin together with the prolonged activity at the cell surface likely contribute to the increased Na+ absorption in the distal nephron of patients with Liddle's syndrome.

Análise dos fatores de risco relacionados à incidência de infecção do sítio cirúrgico em gastrocirurgias

A infecção hospitalar é considerada um problema grave, crescendo tanto em incidência quanto em complexidade, gerando diversos tipos de implicações sociais e econômicas. A presente investigação teve como objetivo identificar a incidência de infecção do sítio cirúrgico (ISC) e os fatores de risco de pacientes submetidos a cirurgias eletivas, na especialidade de Gastroenterologia, realizadas em um hospital público do interior paulista. Os dados foram coletados por meio de estudo retrospectivo de prontuários médicos, no período compreendido entre janeiro a dezembro de 1999. Em 134 casos estudados, detectamos a ocorrência de infecção do sítio cirúrgico em 18 situações (13,4%), ocorrendo 9 casos (50%) do tipo considerado infecção incisional superficial, 8 (44.4%) infecção incisional profunda e 1 (5.5%) infecção de órgão/espaço. Em relação aos fatores de risco presentes nos casos de ISC detectados, os que atingiram porcentagem maior ou igual a 50% foram: idade acima de 50 anos, presença de neoplasias, duração da cirurgia maior que duas horas e tricotomia inadequada.
