Marcadores pró-inflamatórios e de estresse oxidativo em pacientes submetidos à gastroplastia com bypass em y de Roux
Dissertação (mestrado) - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina, Centro de Ciências da Saúde, Programa de Pos-Graduação em Nutrição, Florianópolis, 2009.Obesity is an inflammatory condition associated to oxidative stress. This study#s objective was to evaluate the effect of weight loss over the ingestion of energy, vitamin C, carotene and vitamin E (diet / blood), blood concentration of reduced glutathione (GSH), thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS), catalase (CAT) and myeloperoxidasis (MPO) in patients submitted to Roux-en-Y gastric bypass. Methods: This was a prospective controlled single-blind study composed by a Control Group (CG) and a Surgery Group (SG), both with 5 men and 31 women, mean ages of 38.7±9.4 and 39.6±9.2 years, mean Body Mass Index (BMI) values of 22.2±2.1 and 47.6±9.1 kg/m2, respectively. The CG group was evaluated once and the SG group was evaluated in basal, 3rd, 6th, and 12th days post-surgery. After surgery, the SG group received daily supplementation of vitamin C (60mg), -carotene (3000ìg) and vitamin E (30mg). Results: Compared with basal period, weight loss in SG on the 12th month was of 35.8±1.0% (P0.001) and TG (r=0.260; P=0.002), and the TBARS with vitamin C (r=- 0.532; P0,001) e TG (r=0,260; P=0,002) e o TBARS com vitamina C (r=-0,532; P<0,001). Conclusao: Apos 12 meses, GG apresentou atenuacao do estresse oxidativo e da inflamacao com diminuicao do TBARS e de NOx
Midaynta iyo Horumarinta Af-soomaaliga
Qoraagu wuxuu maqaalkan ku falanqaynayaa arrimo ku saabsan midaynta af Soomaaliga qoran, oo dadka qaarkood ay ku doodaan in ay dhibaato ka taagantahay, iyagoo u aanaynaya kala duwanaanta lahjadaha Soomaaliyeed iyo farta af Soomaaliga oo aan xasillayn. Qoraha oo soo bandhigayaa in arrimahaasu aanu sax ahayn, wuxuuna muujinayaa caqabadaha dhabta ah ee hortaagan houmarinta af Soomaaliga: afku wuxuu la'yahay dawlad si rasmi ah u adeegsato, weerar ba'anna waxaa ku haya af Ingiriisiga, xagga ereyadana nabaadguur xooggan ayaa ku dhacaya, gaar ahaan ereyada la xiriira dhaqanka Soomaaliyeed.L'autore, in questo articolo, analizzando la questione della lingua somala scritta, cerca di illustrare che la situazione del somalo standard non è cosi problematica come a detta di alcuni somali, specialmente, nell'ortografia e nella differenza tra i dialetti, ma il problema somalo è bensì riscontrabile in altri fattori: la mancanza di un stato che continui ad adottare il somalo come lingua ufficiale, l'estinzione di tantissimi vocaboli in disuso, nonché la forte influenza dalla lingua inglese.The author in this article, in analysing the written somali language, wants to show the somali standard situation is not so bad, like some Somalis say, especially in orthography and in vernaculars difference. In spite of, the somali language problem is recognisable in some others factors: lack of state that usually chooses somali language as official language, extinction of many terms in disuse and also the strong influence of English.Cabdirashid M.

Dwing als gebiedsontwikkelaar een duidelijke opdracht af
Terwijl de context waarin gebiedsontwikkelaars werken alleen maar complexer wordt, ziet Co Verdaas, hoogleraar gebiedsontwikkeling, een aanhoudende neiging om keuzes vooruit te schuiven of te verhullen. Hij geeft zes tips om gebiedsontwikkelaars in hun kracht te zetten. “Zonder escalatie geen resultaat zou het devies moeten zijn.”Practice Chair Urban Area Developmen
THE INVOLVEMENT OF MUSCARINIC RECEPTORS IN GASTRIC LIQUID EMPTYING IN THE CONSCIOUS RAT FOLLOWING ROUX-EN-Y-ANTRECTOMY
The gastric emptying of liquid test meals is dependent on resistance to flow at the pylorus and on pressure gradients between the duodenum and the body of the stomach. In the present study, we investigated the role and subtypes of muscarinic receptors during gastric emptying of various liquid test meals in conscious rats with gastric fistula after Roux-en-Y antrectomy. In the control rats with gastric fistula but with intact reflex pathways and pylorus, the non-selective muscarinic antagonist atropine (7 mg/kg i.p.) and Mi-selective pirenzepine (7 mg/kg i.p.), acting possibly on M1 receptors, delayed saline emptying by suppressing cholinergic tone and thus relaxing the body of the stomach and contracting the pyloric sphincter. On the other hand, in Roux-rats saline and hyperosmolal saline emptying were not significantly affected, while the inhibitory effect of HCl was completely reversed. Furthermore, peptone-induced delay of gastric emptying in control rats was also reduced in Roux-rats. Pirenzepine abolished the facilitating effects of Roux-en-Y operation on acid and peptone emptying and M2-selective antagonist AF DX-116 (7 mg/kg i.p.) did not have any inhibitory effect in this regard. In conclusion, Roux-en-Y gastrectomy without vagotomy does not slow gastric emptying of liquids, and it reverses the inhibitory effects of peptone and acid through an atropine- and pirenzepine-sensitive pathway
Simple risk model predicts incidence of atrial fibrillation in a racially and geographically diverse population: the CHARGE-AF consortium
Full author list omitted for brevity. For the full list of authors, see article.BACKGROUND: Tools for the prediction of atrial fibrillation (AF) may identify high-risk individuals more likely to benefit from preventive interventions and serve as a benchmark to test novel putative risk factors. METHODS AND RESULTS: Individual-level data from 3 large cohorts in the United States (Atherosclerosis Risk in Communities [ARIC] study, the Cardiovascular Health Study [CHS], and the Framingham Heart Study [FHS]), including 18 556 men and women aged 46 to 94 years (19% African Americans, 81% whites) were pooled to derive predictive models for AF using clinical variables. Validation of the derived models was performed in 7672 participants from the Age, Gene and Environment-Reykjavik study (AGES) and the Rotterdam Study (RS). The analysis included 1186 incident AF cases in the derivation cohorts and 585 in the validation cohorts. A simple 5-year predictive model including the variables age, race, height, weight, systolic and diastolic blood pressure, current smoking, use of antihypertensive medication, diabetes, and history of myocardial infarction and heart failure had good discrimination (C-statistic, 0.765; 95% CI, 0.748 to 0.781). Addition of variables from the electrocardiogram did not improve the overall model discrimination (C-statistic, 0.767; 95% CI, 0.750 to 0.783; categorical net reclassification improvement, -0.0032; 95% CI, -0.0178 to 0.0113). In the validation cohorts, discrimination was acceptable (AGES C-statistic, 0.664; 95% CI, 0.632 to 0.697 and RS C-statistic, 0.705; 95% CI, 0.664 to 0.747) and calibration was adequate. CONCLUSION: A risk model including variables readily available in primary care settings adequately predicted AF in diverse populations from the United States and Europe
Camaret : Saint-Pol-Roux, frère des peintres (De Gauguin à Jim Sévellec)
Dès ses débuts parisiens, Saint-Pol-Roux s’est intéressé à tous les arts, à la musique et au théâtre, mais aussi à l’architecture et à la sculpture, avec une certaine prédilection pour la peinture dont, avant même son adhésion au Symbolisme, il suit très tôt les diverses manifestations, celles des impressionnistes ou des pointillistes. C’est en effet l’art de la Lumière, qui lui semble le plus proche de la poésie, art du Verbe, Verbe et Lumière étant des forces premières, des principes. Il af..
First Maltese record of Stephanopachys quadricollis (Marseul, 1879) (Coleoptera, Bostrichidae)
Three specimens of Stephanopachys quadricollis (Marseul, 1878) were recently found in Malta in UV light
traps and represent the first record of this species for this country. Although S. quadricollis is native to
the Mediterranean basin, it is not yet clear if these Maltese records are due to a natural population or to
an interception. Distributional, nomenclatural and biological data on this species are summarized, and a
new synonymy is established: Stephanopachys quadricollis (Marseul, 1879) = Stephanopachys quadraticollis
