In this work we present a discussion and the results of the simulation of disease spread using the Monte Carlo method. The dissemination model is the SIR model and presents as main characteristic the disease evolution among individuals of the population subdivided into three groups: susceptible (S), infected (I) and recovered (R). The technique used is based on the introduction of transition probabilities S-> I and I->R to do the spread of the disease, they are governed by a Poisson distribution. The simulation of the spread of disease was based on the randomness introduced, taking into account two basic parameters of the model, the power of infection and average time of the disease. Considering appropriate values of these parameters, the results are presented graphically and analysis of these results gives information on a group of individuals react to the changes of these parameters and what are the chances of a disease becoming a pandemic

We developed a stochastic lattice model to describe the vector-borne disease (like yellow fever or dengue). The model is spatially structured and its dynamical rules take into account the diffusion of vectors. We consider a bipartite lattice, forming a sub-lattice of human and another occupied by mosquitoes. At each site of lattice we associate a stochastic variable that describes the occupation and the health state of a single individual (mosquito or human). The process of disease transmission in the human population follows a similar dynamic of the Susceptible-Infected-Recovered model (SIR), while the disease transmission in the mosquito population has an analogous dynamic of the Susceptible-Infected-Susceptible model (SIS) with mosquitos diffusion. The occurrence of an epidemic is directly related to the conditional probability of occurrence of infected mosquitoes (human) in the presence of susceptible human (mosquitoes) on neighborhood. The probability of diffusion of mosquitoes can facilitate the formation of pairs Susceptible-Infected enabling an increase in the size of the epidemic. Using an asynchronous dynamic update, we study the disease transmission in a population initially formed by susceptible individuals due to the introduction of a single mosquito (human) infected. We find that this model exhibits a continuous phase transition related to the existence or non-existence of an epidemic. By means of mean field approximations and Monte Carlo simulations we investigate the epidemic threshold and the phase diagram in terms of the diffusion probability and the infection probability.

This work aimed to assess the photocatalytic degradation of a model odor compound (dimethyl disulfide, DMDS), found in liquid and gaseous wastes of plants for processing poultry byproducts. The effect of pH and temperature on adsorption and photocatalytic degradation was evaluated through factorial experimental designs. The results suggest the presence of an optimum region for adsorption, at 45.0 ºC and pH 4.0. In the photocatalytic runs an optimum for temperature and pH was also observed. At 45 ºC and pH 4.0 the removal of DMDS was 99% after 60 min of irradiation.

Las consecuencias de la inmadurez orgánica junto con las dificultades en la adaptación a la vida extrauterina, traen consigo difíciles retos y altos costos, referidos en lo económico y en las vidas humanas dentro de las unidades de recién nacidos: cientos de neonatos fallecen por las complicaciones asociadas a la prematuridad. Las complicaciones respiratorias, ocupan el primer lugar de todos estos problemas y es un enorme reto el hallar estrategias que logren rápidamente la independencia y autonomía de la mecánica respiratoria del prematuro, lo que incluye el menor tiempo posible del uso de oxígeno, pues se sabe de las consecuencias negativas e irreversibles de la ventilación mecánica sobre la arquitectura pulmonar y el estado hemodinámico, así como la toxicidad del oxígeno sobre los pulmones mismos y la retina (displasia broncopulmonar y retinopatía).

The authors studied the effect of temperature and humidity of inhaled gases on the respiratory tract of dogs submitted to mechanic ventilation. According to these two variables, fourty dogs were divided in five groups: -G1: 22-26°C and 17-20 mg H2O.l-1; G2: 27-31°C and 23-27 mg H2O.l-1; G3: 32-36°C and 30-36 mg H2O.l-1; G4: 37-41°C and 40-49 mg H2O.l-1; G5: 42-46°C and 59-65 mg H2O.l-1. The following parameters were evaluated: medial arterial pressure, cardiac frequency, venous pressure of inferior cava (CVP), endotracheal pressure, arterial pH, PaO2, PaCO2, rectal temperature, and the histology of the tracheobronchial tree. In the groups G1 and G5, the endotracheal pressure and CVP presented a slight raise. In the groups G1, G2 and G3, there was no histological modification or progressive hypothermia. The group G5 presented metabolic acidosis and great histological alteration; in this group the rectal temperature remained stable. The group G4 presented great histological alteration and hypothermia. In conclusion, the temperature and humidity of inhaled gases should not be higher than 36°C and 36 mm H2O.l-1, respectively. However, the stability of body temperature only is achieved when the temperature of the inhaled air is 42°C or higher.

Introdução: Os ensaios de liberação do interferon- γ (ELIG) surgiram como uma alternativa para o diagnóstico de infecção latente pelo Mycobacterium tuberculosis (ILTB). Neste estudo, nós comparamos o desempenho de um dos ELIG, teste Quantiferon TB Gold in tube – QFT, com a prova tuberculínica (PT) em dois pontos de corte (≥ 5 mm e ≥ 10 mm), em profissionais de saúde da atenção básica à saúde (ABS). Métodos: Estudo transversal realizado em profissionais de saúde da ABS de quatro capitais nacionais com alta incidência de TB. O resultado do teste QFT foi comparado com o resultado da PT nos pontos de corte ≥ 5mm e ≥ 10 mm. Resultados: Foram incluídos 632 profissionais de saúde. Ao considerar o ponto de corte ≥ 10 mm para a PT, a concordância entre QFT e a PT foi de 69% (k = 0,31) e para o ponto de corte ≥ 5 mm, a concordância entre os testes foi de 57% (k = 0,22). Devido a baixa concordância entre a PT e o QFT, nós avaliamos os possíveis fatores associados com a discordância entre eles. Ao comparar o grupo PT- / QFT- com o grupo PT+ / QFT-, no ponto de corte ≥ 5 mm, a idade entre 41-45 [OR = 2,70, IC 95%: 1,32-5,51] e 46-64 [OR = 2,04, IC 95%: 1,05-3,93], presença de cicatriz vacinal do BCG [OR = 2,72, IC 95%: 1,40-5,25] e trabalhar apenas na ABS [OR = 2,30, IC 95 %: 1,09-4,86] apresentaram associação estatística significativa. Para o ponto de corte ≥ 10 mm, a presença de cicatriz vacinal do BCG [OR = 2,26, IC 95%: 1,03-4,91], ter tido contato domiciliar com paciente portador de tuberculose ativa [OR = 1,72, IC 95%: 1,01-2,92] e ter feito a PT anteriormente [OR = 1,66, IC 95%: 1,05-2,62] revelaram associação estatística significativa. Curiosamente, a discordância observada no grupo PT- / QFT + não apresentou associação estatistica com nenhuma das variáveis consideradas, independentemente do ponto de corte da PT. Conclusões: Apesar de termos identificado que a vacina BCG contribuiu para a discordância entre os testes, as recomendações brasileiras para o início do tratamento da ILTB não devem ser alteradas devido as limitações do QFT.

A producao de energia mecanica, atraves da utilizacao de motores electricos, absorve cerca de metade da energia electrica consumida no nosso Pais, da qual apenas metade e energia util. Este sector e, pois, um daqueles em que e preciso tentar fazer economias, prioritariamente. O exito neste dominio depende, em primeiro lugar, da melhor adequacao da potencia do motor a da maquina que ele acciona. Quando o regime de funcionamento e muito variavel para permitir este ajustamento, pode-se equipar o motor com um conversor electronico de variacao de velocidade. Outra possibilidade e a utilizacao dos motores “de perdas reduzidas” ou de “alto rendimento”, que permitem economias consideraveis. Tambem a nivel Europeu, os motores electricos representam uma das fontes mais consumidoras de energia: 70% do consumo electrico na industria e cerca de 1/3 do consumo electrico no sector dos servicos. Nos ultimos anos, muitos fabricantes de motores investiram fortemente na pesquisa e desenvolvimento de novos produtos com o objectivo de colocarem no mercado motores mais eficientes.
