ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND: Primary biodiversity data records, available on-line, are essential for conservation planning. Of the mega diversity countries, Brazil have reached a high level of scientific research in describing their biodiversity. However, there still remain significant limitations in recovering, collating and organizing available information on Brazil's biological diversity and its distribution. Since the colonial period, biological material were often collected and transferred to other countries, which were characterized, stored and maintained. As a result, natural history museums worldwide possess large amounts of primary biodiversity data originally from Brazil which are then published on-line in the international Global Biodiversity Information Facility (GBIF) infrastructure. Aiming to recover these data, the Brazilian Biodiversity Information System (SiBBr) developed an automatic repatriation tool capable of retrieving all records registered in Brazil but published outside Brazilian territory in an automated manner. NEW INFORMATION: Thus, 2,459,366 records were added to SiBBr's Repository in one day. Europe and the United States hold about 80% of all records. The data set covers all life kingdoms. Animalia is the most represented group with 3 main phylum's: Chordata, Arthropoda and Mollusca, within more than 40% of all records. Plantae also comprises a large portion of the records with angiosperms having the major number of entries.
ABSTRACT
Urinary tract infection (UTI) has a high worldwide incidence and is a major nosological entity requiring attention in medical practice. UTIs are among the most common bacterial infections of Homo sapiens sapiens, with special participation of Escherichia coli, responsible for 70% to 85% of community UTIs among healthy adult women. When urinary infection triggers the systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) it is characterized as urinary sepsis. From this perspective, the purpose of this article is to approach - through literature review using a defined search strategy - the main aspects related to UTI and urinary sepsis, discussing the etiology, risk factors, pathogenesis, clinical manifestations, diagnostic methods, treatment, preventive measures and prospects - highlighting, in the latter context, proteomic analysis and in silico experimentation.

A soja [Glycine max (L.) Merrill] é o principal produto agrícola da exportação brasileira, portanto, torna-se importante a realização de estudos que contribuam para a minimização dos efeitos que possam causar a diminuição do rendimento e a depreciação da qualidade dessa oleaginosa, como a ocorrência de pragas e doenças, problemas com a fertilidade do solo e adversidades climáticas, entre outros. Sabe-se que as plantas diferem na sua capacidade de absorver silício (Si), sendo assim diferentemente classificadas. A influência do Si no desenvolvimento vegetativo em plantas de soja ainda é pouco conhecida, existindo poucos estudos descritos na literatura. Diante disso, objetivou-se, neste trabalho, avaliar a resposta da soja a diferentes doses de Si no plantio, por meio da produtividade e características agronômicas das plantas no campo. O delineamento experimental utilizado foi o de blocos casualizados (DBC), com três repetições, tendo como tratamentos 11 doses de Si (0, 50, 100, 150, 200, 250, 300, 350, 400, 450 e 500 kg ha-1) na semeadura da soja, cultivar BRS MG 68 Vencedora. As doses de Si utilizadas não proporcionaram aumentos significativos na produtividade de grãos, peso de mil sementes, número de sementes por legume, o mesmo não se verificando com o numero de legumes por planta, altura de planta e altura de inserção do primeiro legume que apresentaram efeito significativo, com o aumento das doses nessas características. A aplicação de Si não proporcionou efeitos fitotóxicos visíveis na planta de soja.
Soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merrill] is the main agricultural product export of Brazil. Therefore, it is important studies that contribute to the mitigation of the effects that might cause a decrease in income and depreciation of the quality of this oleaginous plant, as the occurrence of pests and diseases, problems with soil fertility and climatic adversities, among others. It is known that plants differ in their ability to absorb silicon (Si) and are therefore classified differently. The influence of vegetation on Si in the development of soybean plants is still little known, and there are few studies described in the literature. Facing this, the objective of this work was to evaluate the response of soybean plants to variable dosage of silicon in the plantation, through agronomical characteristics of the plants in the field. The experimental design was a completely randomized block (CBD), with three replicates, eleven treatments with the following doses of silicon (0, 50, 100, 150, 200, 250, 300, 350, 400, 450 and 500 kg ha - 1) in the soybean planting, cultivating BRS MG 68 Vencedora. Doses of silicon used did not provide significant increases in seed yield, weight of a thousand seeds, and number of seeds per vegetable, but the number of vegetables per plant, plant height and time of insertion of the first vegetable increased significantly with higher doses. Application of silicon did not have phytotoxic effects on the soybean plant.
ABSTRACT
Consiste em um relato de experiência acerca de um projeto de pesquisa iniciado em agosto de 1997, envolvendo docentes do Departamento Materno-Intantil da Faculdade de Enfermagem da UERJ e profissionais do Centro Municipal de Saúde do Rio de Janeiro da S.M.S./RJ. Tem por objetivo, descrever o processo de inserçäo da Consulta de Enfermagem de Pré-natal no conteúdo da graduaçäo, bem como sua estruturaçäo e implantaçäo no referido Centro Municipal de Saúde. Esse trabalho propöe rever também, o modelo biomédico das consultas, a fim de proporcionar reflexöes e rupturas de paradigmas, e com isso auxiliar no aprendizado e na ampliaçäo do acompanhamento de pré-natal no Rio de Janeiro.
