Weight Development and Growth Curves of Grazing Santa Inês Sheep Supplemented with Concentrate in the Pre-Weaning Phase.

Monitoring weight development is essential for decision-making and assessing the effectiveness of management strategies. However, this practice is often hindered by the lack of scales on farms. This study aimed to characterize the weight development and growth curves of male and female Santa Inês lambs from birth to weaning, managed on pasture with creep-fed concentrate supplementation. Data from 212 lambs during the pre-weaning phase were analyzed. The animals were weighed every seven days to evaluate total weight gain and average daily gain. Biometric measurements were taken every 28 days. Mixed models were used to assess the effects of sex and birth type on birth and weaning weights. Simple and multiple linear regression models were employed to estimate live weight using biometric measurements. The non-linear Gompertz model was utilized to describe weight development and formulate growth curves. Results were considered significant at p < 0.05. An interaction effect between birth type and sex (p < 0.05) was noted for birth weight, with the lowest weight observed in twin-birth females (2.96 kg) and the highest in single-birth males (3.73 kg) and females (3.65 kg) (p > 0.05). Birth type significantly influenced average daily gain, total weight gain, and weaning weight (p < 0.05). The Gompertz model accurately depicted the growth curves, effectively describing the weight development. Pearson's correlation coefficients between biometric measurements and weight were positive and significant (p < 0.05), ranging from 0.599 for hip height to 0.847 for heart girth. Consequently, the simple and multiple regression equations demonstrated high precision in predicting weaning weight. In conclusion, twin-birth lambs receiving concentrate supplementation via creep-feeding and managed on pasture showed different developmental patterns compared to single-birth lambs under the same conditions. The Gompertz model proved effective for monitoring development during the pre-weaning phase. All simple and multiple linear regression models were effective in predicting weaning weight through biometric measurements. However, for practical application, the model incorporating two measurements-body length and abdominal circumference-is recommended.

Nutrient Intake, Performance, Carcass Characteristics, Meat Quality, and Cost Analysis of Sheep Submitted to Intermittent Supplementation on Masai Grass Pastures.

This study aimed to assess nutrient intake, performance, intake behavior, carcass characteristics, and meat quality of sheep managed on Masai grass pastures along with intermittent concentrate supplementation, in addition to the economic impacts of applying that strategy. A sample of 24 Santa Inês sheep (12 males and 12 females) was kept for 80 days on Panicum maximum cv. Massai pastures and was supplemented daily or every other day. The voluntary intake of dry matter and nutrients was estimated. Mean daily weight gain and total weight gain were calculated and intake behavior parameters were assessed. The males were slaughtered and the weight and yield of the carcasses and meat cuts were assessed. The meat was analyzed for cooking losses, shear force, and color. The gross margin of the system was estimated from the difference between total income and operational cost. No effect was seen of the interaction between supplementation frequency and sex for any parameter assessed (p > 0.05). Intermittent supplementation of Santa Inês sheep managed with Masai grass is recommended since the strategy does not impact nutrient intake, performance, intake behavior, carcass characteristics, or meat quality, but lowers the costs of producing 1 kg of meat by 15%.

Upper eyelid juvenile xanthogranuloma: a case report / Xantogranuloma juvenil em pálpebra superior: relato de caso

ABSTRACT Juvenile xanthogranuloma is a rare benign non-Langerhans cell histiocytosis. Clinical manifestation usually occurs up to the age of 2 years, with yellowish papules and variable clinical progression. Approximately 0.75% of patients had systemic involvement and 0.25%, ocular alterations. The purpose of this report is to describe a case of a preschool 2-year-old female patient, with nodules in the upper right eyelid, 0.5-cm wide, with well-defined edges, an uncertain date of onset, a stable growth for 6 months, with no inflammatory signs, pruritus, pain, bleeding, or other similar lesions in the body. No further changes were observed in the physical examination. Histopathological examination of the specimen showed a skin lesion with histiocytoid, spindle-shaped cells and xanthomized cells, inflammatory infiltrate and numerous Touton giant cells. The result was compatible with diagnosis of juvenile xanthogranuloma. Therefore, the importance of including juvenile xanthogranuloma in the differential diagnosis of eyelid lesions is emphasized, especially in children.

RESUMO O xantogranuloma juvenil é uma patologia histiocítica benigna rara. A manifestação clínica ocorre geralmente até os 2 anos de idade com pápulas amareladas e evolução clínica variável. Cerca de 0,75% dos pacientes apresentaram comprometimento sistêmico e 0,25%, comprometimento ocular. O objetivo deste relato é descrever o caso de uma pré-escolar de 2 anos do sexo feminino, com nodulação em pálpebra superior direita, 0,5cm de base e bordos bem definidos, data de início não estimada, mas crescimento estável há 6 meses, sem sinais flogísticos, prurido, dor, sangramentos ou outras lesões similares no corpo. Sem mais alterações ao exame físico. A análise histopatológica da peça evidenciou lesão cutânea com células histiocitoides, fusiformes e outras xantomizadas; infiltrado inflamatório de permeio e numerosas células gigantes do tipo Touton, resultado compatível com o diagnóstico de xantogranuloma juvenil.

Evaluation of quality of life in hemophilia patients using the WHOQOL-bref and Haemo-A-Qol questionnaires

ABSTRACT Introduction: Hemophilia is a coagulopathy caused by a deficiency in coagulation factors VIII (hemophilia A) or IX (hemophilia B). It is a chronic disease and, hence, impairs the quality of life (Qol) of the patients. This study aimed to evaluate the Qol of patients with hemophilia using the WHOQOL-bref and the Haemo-A-Qol instruments, its relation to the clinical condition and its sociodemographic variables. Methods: This is a cross-sectional, epidemiological study, comprising 17 patients with hemophilia, registered at the hemocenter, who met the eligibility criteria. Data were collected using three questionnaires: a semi-structured clinical evaluation form, the WHOQOL-bref and the Haem-A-Qol. Results: The average age was 30 years old, and most participants declared themselves to be single (58.82%), without children (64.70%) and employed (58.82%). Hemophilia A was observed in 14 patients and the most severe form of the disease was more prevalent (64.70%). The average score of Qol, estimated by the WHOQOL-bref questionnaire was 74.3; being "social relations" the domain with the highest average. The Haem-A-Qol measured an average of 36.2 and the domain with the highest result was "Family Planning". Conclusion: Hemophilia had a higher negative impact upon the physical, sports and leisure features in the sample subjects. The analysis of the questionnaires did not reveal statistical agreement between them. Based on this, the Haem-A-Qol is considered the most recommended to evaluate the Qol, as it addresses factors more specifically related to the disease. No statistical significance was observed between the scores of Qol, as for the presence of comorbidities, gravity of the hemophilia and positive serology for infections.

Biometric measurements of Santa Inês meat sheep reared on Brachiaria brizantha pastures in Northeast Brazil.

This study was undertaken to examine biometric measurements during the growth phase of male and female Santa Inês sheep reared in Brachiaria brizantha pastures in northeastern Brazil. The experiment involved 24 castrated males and 24 females at an initial age of 90 days, with an average body weight of 19.04 ± 0.96 kg. Treatments consisted of the effect of four cultivars (Marandu, Xaraés, Piatã and Paiaguás) and two sexes. Six animals were used per treatment, in a randomized-block experimental design. The following characteristics were evaluated: abdominal circumference (AC), body condition score (BCS), body length (BL), body weight (BW), body capacity 1 (BC1), body capacity 2 (BC2), chest width (CW), heart girth (HG), leg circumference (LC), leg length (LL), rump height (RH), rump width (RW) and withers height (WH). Data were subjected to descriptive analysis, Pearson's correlation, ANOVA and Tukey's, Kruskal Wallis and Mann-Whitney tests. Univariate and multiple regressions were applied to estimate BW with a maximum error level of 5%. Significant differences were observed for the biometric measurements between sexes and cultivars (p<0.05). Body weight was highly correlated (>70%) with AC, WH, CG, RW, BC1 and BC2. The male sheep grazed on cultivars Piatã showed the best values for BW (40.43 kg), HG, RW, WH, LL, LC (102.46; 20.8; 65.23; 60.44; 42.54 cm respectively) and BC1 (4.25 kg/cm). Females grazed on cultivar Marandu had higher values for RW, CW, LL (17.26; 20.1; 75.98 cm respectively), BC1 (6.03 kg/cm) and BC2 (0.422 kg/cm). The equations that best estimated live weight were BC1 and HG. In male and female Santa Inês sheep, biometric parameters grow differently depending on the cultivar where they are grazed during the growth phase. Cultivars Marandu and Piatã are the most recommended for sheep production, as they provided the best performance and body development in those animals.

Molar-Incisor Hypomineralization in Schoolchildren of São Luis, BrazilMaranhão: Prevalence and Associated Factors

To determine the prevalence of molar-incisor hypomineralization (MIH) in the permanent dentition and assess the factors associated with these change in schoolchildren of São Luís, Brazil.Material and Methods:Overall, 1179 students aged 7-14 years of both sexes were included, all with permanent first molars and incisors erupted in the oral cavity. Oral clinical examination to assess the prevalence of HMI was held at school, under natural light. In the second stage, to assess factors associated with HMI, a case-control study was conducted, in which cases were children diagnosed with HMI (n = 14) and as controls, the schoolchildÆs brother (family control, n = 10 ) and another schoolchild in the same age group bornin the same locality (community control, n = 14). A semistructured questionnaire was completed by mothers to identify possible factors associated with HMI, such as maternal education, family income, data from pregnancy and childÆs medical history in the first three years of life. Logistic regression analysis was used to estimate odds ratios (Odds Ratio -OR) and their confidence intervals at 95% (CI 95%) to assess crude and adjusted associations for confounders.Results:A prevalence of 2.5% of HMI was estimated. No association was found for the etiologic factors surveyed.Conclusion:The prevalence of HMI was lower than that reported in other cities in Brazil, but similar to data from other countries. At the difficulty and complexity in establishing the etiologic factors of HMI, cohort studies are required to clarify this change...

Relato de caso: possível contribuição do exenatide no tratamento de diabetes mellitus tipo 2 / Case report: possible contribution of exenatide in the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus

Introdução: a diabetes mellitus tipo 2 é uma patologia crônica marcada pela presença de sinais e sintomas como: polidpsia, polifagia, poliúria, perda de peso, além de hiperglicemia. Atualmente apresenta um grande aumento da incidência em escala mundial. Fatores como o sedentarismo, aumento da expectativa de vida, obesidade são alguns dos responsáveis por essa elevação da incidência. O comprometimento na qualidade de vida dos pacientes através de suas complicações é de grande importância, vários órgãos e sistemas podem ser afetados, como rins, visão, sistema nervoso central e cardiovascular. Seu tratamento exige cuidados intensivos e multidisciplinares, incluindo terapia medicamentosa somada a mudanças no estilo de vida.Existem várias medicações que atuam em distintas vias metabólicas, com o objetivo de manter um controle satisfatório. Recentemente foram lançados no mercado drogas agonistas do Glucagon like peptide 1 (GLP 1), medicação que apresenta um efeito incretinomimético, com estimulo á produção de insulina pelas células betas pancreáticas, além de reduzir a produção hepática de glicose ao reduzir a secreção de glucagon pelas células alfa das ilhotas pancreáticas e de lentificar o esvaziamento gástrico. Associado ao controle glicêmico foi observado uma perda ponderal em pacientes com sobre peso e obesidade, que se acredita ser devido a ação direta da droga sobre o centro da fome presente no hipotálamo. Caso clínico: Paciente H. G. V. diabética há 20 anos com controle irregular. Obesa, iniciou o uso de exenatide juntamente com a terapia convencional. Paciente após um ano de tratamento obteve uma resposta excelente, controle glicêmico ideal, e perda ponderal de aproximadamente 16kg.

Formação em psicologia e a apropriação do enfoque da atenção primária à saúde em Fortaleza, Ceará / Training in psychology and the appropriation of the focus on primary health care in Fortaleza, Ceará

As mudanças econômicas e sociais ocorridas no Brasil na década de 1980 e a garantia de políticas públicas pela 'Constituição Cidadã' ocasionam o início de uma transformação no campo psi: a inviabilidade do modelo de profissional autônomo e a abertura de novos campos de atuação. Dentre estes, a Saúde Coletiva, em seus três níveis de atenção, é a que mais tem possibilitado essas novas formas de inserção. No entanto, o processo de interlocução dos psicólogos com esse campo do saber vem sendo problemático e remete a uma formação que ainda não tem fornecido a preparação necessária para a atuação em consonância com o Sistema Único de Saúde (SUS). Este trabalho teve como objetivo analisar a proposta de formação, para a atuação na atenção primária, prevista pelos cursos de graduação em psicologia de Fortaleza, Ceará, por meio dos seus projetos político-pedagógicos. Para isso usou-se uma abordagem qualitativa, tendo como estratégia metodológica a análise documental. Constatou-se que a formação do psicólogo, apesar das novas diretrizes curriculares, ainda é pautada por uma proposta clínica tradicional, com ensino centrado no modelo intervencionista de saúde. Conclui-se apontando a necessidade de mudanças que ampliem e requalifiquem a formação em psicologia para atuação em Atenção Primária à Saúde.

The socioeconomic changes that took place in Brazil in the 1980s and the guarantee of public policies by the 'citizen constitution' sparked a transformation in the psi field: the impracticability of the self-employed worker model and the opening of new fields of performance. Among these, Public Health, on its three levels of care, is what has enabled these new forms of integration the most. However, the psychologists' process of dialogue with this field of knowledge has been problematic, a fact that has lead to a type of training that has not provided the necessary readiness for them to work in line with SUS. This article aims to analyze the proposal of training professionals to work in primary care as foreseen under the undergraduate programs in psychology in Fortaleza by means of its political and educational projects. To achieve this, the authors used a qualitative approach and document analysis as their methodological strategy. It was found that, notwithstanding the new curriculum guidelines, psychologists are still trained based on a traditional clinical proposal, with education centered on the intervention model of health. The authors conclude there is a need for changes designed to expand and requalify the training in psychology to work in primary health care.
