População e áreas de risco: o caso das inundações na área central de São José do Rio Preto-SP

The problem of flooding in urban areas exist in many cities and their causes are as varied as the areas of occupancy or Valley weatherproofing Fund areas of infiltration in the drainage basin. The anthropic activity come triggering changes and impacts on the environment for a long time, and there is a growing need to come up with solutions and strategies that minimize and reverse the effects caused these risk areas. Thus, the present work will address the case study in São José do Rio Preto-SP that is an exception, since the area that is considered of risk lies in the Centre, unlike most lying on the outskirts. This will also analyze the processes of urban expansion and the situations of social and environmental vulnerability, including their interrelations in urban scale. The physical study of the area will serve as an important basis for the work, but it will focus mainly on the population and the problems which this is being in hazardous areas. We will not join a single methodology, wharever, we will follow our knowledge to adapt what we feel that fits better, every time. The importance of this study is that in addition to identifying the problems which the local population suffers with floods, lists measures that minimize the environmental impacts arising through the fostering of public policies

Indicadores Antropométricos do Estado Nutricional de Idosas Praticantes e Não Praticantes de Exercício Fisíco na Zona Norte de São José do Rio Preto-SP

Although the regular practice of physical exercise for the maintenance of the nutritional state and quality of life is important, it is not a common habit among the elderly, especially those of the lower income social bracket. The objective was to characterize and compare according to social-economic conditions and anthropometric indexes of the nutritional state of the elderly who regularly practice and those who do not practice exercises, offered at no cost, in the Northern zone of São José do Rio Preto-SP. In this study, 110 elderly women participated, of which 60 (group P) exercised regularly and 50 did not (group NP). Group P participated in a special gym program, free of charge, for at least 2 years, 2 to 3 times a week, one hour a day. Group NP was recruited from the same location as Group P. The comparison between the groups of elderly women was proportionately distributed according to marital status, level of education, means of locomotion, results of body mass index (IMC), waist to hip ratio (RCQ) and calf circumference, using the chi-square test. Comparisons were also made of average age, per capita family income, individual income, IMC, arm and triceps skin fold measured by t-Test. Differences were not found in all the comparisons made. The variables that stood out were the IMC (overweight) and RCQ (risk of chronic diseases) results, which were above what was expected, and the high frequency of walking and riding buses for both groups of elderly women (about 60%). We came to the conclusion that the low-intensity exercise program evaluated made no difference in the nutritional profile of the elderly who also used walking as a means of getting around.

Diagnóstico de hemoglobinopatias em recém-nascidos do Hospital de Base de São José do Rio Preto-SP

The neonatal period is considered the most effective for the screening of hemoglobinopathies. This allows prophylaxis and prevention, improving the patient's survival and guidance of parents and heterozygote carriers. The present work aims at the early detection of abnormal hemoglobins, the establishment of standard analysis and to examine the viability of the prevention program. Blood samples were collected by heel stick and from blood cord of children born in the Hospital de Base São José do Rio Preto, from April 1998 to November 1999. Electrophoresis and cytological, biochemical, cromatographic analyses were made for abnormal hemoglobin characterization. A total of 1,478 neonatal blood samples were analyzed in which 14.62% presented with hemoglobins alterations: 3.32% had Hb S; 0.61% had Hb C; 7.44% were suggestive of alpha thalassemia; 1.55% were suggestive of beta thalassemia, and 1.70% had alpha/beta thalassemia interactions. The samples collected from the blood cord showed better results in all analyses while the blood samples collected by heel stick on filter paper, were applicable to only specific methodologies. The routine laboratory methods allowed identification of the thalassemic and variant forms, and isoelectric focusing presented sensitivity only for variant identification in this age range. The suspected cases were reassessed after six months, which permitted genetic counseling of their family members and clinic attendance. A multidisciplinary approach in programs of this kind is fundamental for its success.

Estudo cromossômico no sangue periférico de pacientes com diferentes tipos de leucemia do Hospital de Base, São José do Rio Preto - SP

A análise das alterações cromossômicas em leucemias tem uma aplicação direta no diagnóstico, prognóstico e tratamento dos pacientes. Além disso, permite o entendimento dos processos biológicos envolvidos na carcinogênese. Este trabalho apresenta os resultados do estudo cariotípico de 51 casos de diferentes tipos de leucemias. Os cromossomos foram obtidos através de cultura de células de sangue periférico, realizadas por 24 ou 48 horas, sem estimulação mitogênica. em 74% dos pacientes foram observadas anomalias cromossômicas clonais como translocações, deleções, monossomias e trissomias. Muitas alterações foram compatíveis com outras previamente descritas e outras não, como a translocação envolvendo os cromossomos 9 e 22, que origina o cromossomo Philadelphia e uma translocação complexa envolvendo os cromossomos 4, 7 e 11. Os resultados reforçam a importância da análise cromossômica em leucemia e seus benefícios para o paciente.

Hemoglobina Köln diagnosticada em programa de triagem neonatal em São José do Rio Preto, SP

Alterações genéticas em que a mutação de aminoácidos nas globinas afeta a estrutura da molécula tornando-a instável são classificadas como hemoglobinas instáveis. Devido à grande diversidade dos pontos de mutações por substituições e deleções de aminoácidos, as formas de instabilização se apresentam muito variadas. A hemoglobina Köln é a variante instável descrita com maior freqüência na literatura e a terceira descoberta no Brasil, as outras são Hb Niterói e Hb Hasharon. Anemia moderada, icterícia e presença de urina escura caracterizam as manifestações clínicas da Hb Köln. em programa de triagem neonatal identificamos uma criança com suspeita de heterozigose para hemoglobina Köln, confirmada por procedimentos eletroforéticos e HPLC. Avaliações por diferentes metodologias laboratoriais e estudo familiar auxiliam no diagnóstico precoce, possibilitando minimizar os sintomas decorrentes da hemoglobina anormal e a realização do aconselhamento genético e educacional destas alterações hereditárias.

Caracterização de hemoglobina N-Baltimore em doador de sangue de São José do Rio Preto, SP

As alterações que envolvem as globinas devem-se a modificações em genes responsáveis pela seqüência e estrutura das cadeias polipeptídicas, bem como aos genes reguladores da síntese destas cadeias. Hemoglobinas variantes apresentam estrutura química diferente da hemoglobina normal correspondente, resultante de mutações em uma ou mais bases nitrogenadas, ocasionando a troca de aminoácidos nas globinas alfa, beta, delta ou gama. A hemoglobina N-Baltimore é uma variante de globina beta, com substituição da lisina, na posição 95, por ácido glutâmico, apresentando mobilidade eletroforética mais rápida que a hemoglobina A em pH alcalino. Nas análises eletroforéticas em pH alcalino realizadas em doadores de sangue do Hemocentro de São José do Rio Preto (SP) identificamos a presença de portador de hemoglobina rápida em heterozigose, posteriormente confirmada por focalização isoelétrica e cromatografia líquida de alta pressão (HPLC). Os estudos de hemoglobinas anormais em doadores de sangue permitem a identificação de variantes raras e possibilitam o aconselhamento genético adequado a cada caso com estudo familial.

Avaliação do polimorfismo de grupos sanguíneos e fenótipo de hemoglobinas em um grupo de universitários de São José do Rio Preto, SP

The studies of the phenotypes of the blood groups are important for blood transfusions, for obstetrics, neonatology and law medicine, apart from its application in anthropology where it can be used as genetic markers in population studies. Works with hemoglobin polymor-phisms as a genetic marker of populations has been increased over the last few years, particularly for different population groups of Brazil. In the investigation the hemoglobin polymorphisms of 200 university students from São José do Rio Preto, Brazil were studied to establish a possible relation between the different phenotypes. Statistical analysis of the phenotypes showed that the differences observed were not significant, without a relationship among the polymorphisms of blood groups and hemoglobins.
