RESUMO

SUMMARY: The foramen magnum (FM) is a transition zone between the spine and skull. There is a study in the literature showing the golden ratio (4.62) and harmony between both FM and the anteroposterior and transverse diameters of the skull. The aim of this study is to examine the existence of this ratio on CT images and to investigate whether this ratio changes according to the FM shape types. In this study, 402 adult CT images belonging to the Turkish population were examined. Maximum cranial length (MCL), maximum cranial width (MCW) and the FM length (FML) and FM width (FMW) were measured. The different shapes of the FM were macroscopically classified. The number and incidence of each type in the studied skull was registered. In the 402 CT images used in the study, 12 FM shapes were detected. Three of the shape types observed in our study have not been reported in the literature until now, and were found in our study for the first time. In addition, our data supported that by using the ratio of 4.62, there was a great harmony between the skull and FM. The results obtained from the research show that there is a ratio of 4.62 between the basic cranial measurements and FM dimensions in all shapes except triangular shape. It is thought that repeating the calculated coefficients over more different FM shapes will contribute to the effectiveness of the proposed golden ratio.

RESUMEN: El foramen magno (FM) es una zona de transición entre la columna y el cráneo. Existe un estudio en la literatura que muestra la proporción áurea (4,62) y la armonía entre el FM y los diámetros anteroposterior y transversal del cráneo. El objetivo de este estudio fue examinar la existencia de esta relación en las imágenes de TC e investigar si esta relación cambia según los tipos de forma del FM. Se examinaron 402 imágenes de TC de adultos pertenecientes a la población turca. Se midieron la longitud craneal máxima, el ancho craneal máximo y la longitud del FM y la anchura del FM. Las diferentes formas del FM se clasificaron macroscópicamente. Se registró el número e incidencia de cada tipo en el cráneo estudiado. En las 402 imágenes de TC utilizadas en el estudio, se detectaron 12 formas de FM. Tres de los tipos de formas observados en nuestro estudio no se han reportado en la literatura consultada describiéndose por primera vez. Además, nuestros datos respaldaron que al usar la proporción de 4,62, había una armonía importante entre el cráneo y el FM. Los resultados obtenidos de la investigación muestran que existe una relación de 4,62 entre las medidas craneales básicas y las dimensiones de la FM en todas las formas excepto en la triangular. Se cree que la repetición de los coeficientes calculados en más formas de FM diferentes contribuirá a la eficacia de la proporción áurea propuesta.

RESUMO

Abstract The essential oil (EO) composition of leaves of Campomanesia aurea was analyzed by GC-MS. The plant was collected in April (EOA) and October (EOO) in São Francisco de Assis/RS. The essential oils were obtained by hydrodistillation in a modified Clevenger apparatus. The yields were 4.44% in April, and 6.15%, in October. Thirty-one compounds were identified in EOA, accounting for 96.87% of the total, and twenty-eight compounds were identified in EOO, accounting for 99.46% of the total. For EOA, the major identified monoterpene was p-cymene (8.33%) and the major identified sesquiterpene was α-cadinol (10.72%), while regarding EOO the major identified monoterpene was repeatedly Terpinolene (3.43%), whereas the major identified sesquiterpene was α-cadinol (12.79%). The antibacterial activity of the essential oil was evaluated against the three Listeria monocytogenes from the American Type Culture Collection (strains ATCC 7644, 19114 and 13932). The essential oil showed a MIC of 10 mg/mL against the strains ATCC 7644 and 19114, with bacteriostatic effect of 20 mg/mL and a MIC of 20 mg/mL for ATCC 13932. Regarding the antibiofilm activity, o EOO showed the best results with an inhibition of 90% in the sessile growth with an applied concentration of 4.0 mg/mL.

RESUMO

Changes in landscape structure can affect essential population ecological features, such as dispersal and recruitment, and thus genetic processes. Here, we analyze the effects of landscape metrics on adaptive quantitative traits variation, evolutionary potential, and on neutral genetic diversity in populations of the Neotropical savanna tree Tabebuia aurea. Using a multi-scale approach, we sampled five landscapes with two sites of savanna in each. To obtain neutral genetic variation, we genotyped 60 adult individuals from each site using 10 microsatellite loci. We measured seed size and mass. Seeds were grown in nursery in completely randomized experimental design and 17 traits were measured in seedlings to obtain the average, additive genetic variance (V a ) and coefficient of variation (CV a %), which measures evolvability, for each trait. We found that habitat loss increased genetic diversity (He) and allelic richness (AR), and decreased genetic differentiation among populations (F ST ), most likely due to longer dispersal distance of pollen in landscapes with lower density of flowering individuals. Habitat amount positively influenced seed size. Seeds of T. aurea are wind-dispersed and larger seeds may be dispersed to short distance, increasing genetic differentiation and decreasing genetic diversity and allelic richness. Evolvability (CV a %) in root length decreased with habitat amount. Savanna trees have higher root than shoot growth rate in the initial stages, allowing seedlings to obtain water from water tables. Landscapes with lower habitat amount may be more stressful for plant species, due to the lower plant density, edge effects and the negative impacts of agroecosystems. In these landscapes, larger roots may provide higher ability to obtain water, increasing survival and avoiding dying back because of fire. Despite the very recent agriculture expansion in Central Brazil, landscape changes are affecting neutral and adaptive variation in T. aurea. Several populations have low additive genetic variation for some traits and thus, may have limited evolvability, which may jeopardize species long-term persistence. The effect of habitat loss on highly variable neutral loci may only be detected after a certain threshold of population size is attained, that could become dangerously small masking important losses of heterozygosity endangering species conservation.

RESUMO

The contamination of water resources by nitrate is a global problem. Indeed, traditional treatment technologies are not able to remove this ion from water. Alternatively, biological denitrification is a useful technique for natural water nitrate removal. This study aimed to evaluate the use of glycerol as a carbon source for drinking water nitrate removal via denitrification in a reactor using microorganisms from natural biomass. The experiment was carried out in a continuous fixed bed reactor using immobilised microorganisms from the vegetal Phyllostachys aurea. The tests were started in batch mode to provide cells growth and further immobilisation on the support. Then, the treatment experiments were accomplished in an up-flow continuous reactor. Ethanol was used as the primary carbon source, and it was gradually replaced by glycerol. The C:N (carbon to nitrogen) ratio and the hydraulic residence time (HRT) were evaluated. It was possible to remove 98.14% of nitrate using a C:N ratio and HRT of 3:1 and 1.51 days, respectively. The results have demonstrated that glycerol is a potential carbon source for denitrification in a continuous reactor using immobilised cells from natural biomass.

RESUMO

Abstract Introduction: The face is the most important factor affecting the physical appearance of a person. In facial aesthetics, there is a specific mathematical proportion, which is called golden proportion, used to measure and analyse facial aesthetic qualities in population. Objectives: The aim of this study was to measure the facial soft tissue proportions which would help to constitute a standard for facial beauty and diagnose facial differences and anomalies and to compare these proportions to the golden proportion. Methods: One hundred and thirty-three (133) Turkish patients 18-40 years of age (61 females, 72 males) were involved in the study. Analysis of the photographs was performed by the same physician, and a software programme was used (NIH Image, version 1.62). Facial proportions were measured and differences from the golden proportions were recorded and grouped as normal (1.6-1.699), short (<1.6) and long (>1.699). Results: According to the facial analysis results, the trichion-gnathion/right zygoma-left zygoma was assessed: 33.1% of the patients were in normal facial morphology, 36.8% were in long facial morphology and 30.1% were in short facial morphology, according to this proportion. The trichion-gnathion/right zygoma-left zygoma proportion was significantly higher in males than females (p < 0.001). Statistically significant difference was noted in gender groups, according to the trichion-gnathion/right zygoma-left zygoma and the right lateral canthus-left lateral canthus/right cheilion-left cheilion proportions (p = 0.001, p = 0.028). Conclusion: Facial proportion assessments in relation to the golden proportion showed that a statistically significant difference was observed between gender groups. Long facial morphology was observed more in males (51.4%); normal (41%) and short (39.3%) facial morphology were more common in females. The measurements and proportions for facial balance in our study population showed that the facial width and height proportions deviated from the golden proportion.

Resumo Introdução: A face é o aspecto mais importante da aparência física de uma pessoa. Na estética facial, existe uma proporção matemática específica, chamada de proporção áurea. A proporção áurea é usada para medir e analisar as qualidades estéticas da face na população. Objetivo: Medir as proporções dos tecidos moles faciais que contribuem para o padrão da beleza facial, auxiliar a percepção e o diagnóstico das diferenças e anomalias faciais e comparar essas proporções com a proporção áurea. Método: Foram incluídos no estudo 133 pacientes turcos com 18 a 40 anos (61 mulheres, 72 homens). A análise das fotografias foi realizada pelo mesmo médico e um programa de software foi usado (NIH Image, versão 1.62). As proporções faciais foram medidas e as diferenças das proporções áureas foram registradas e agrupadas como normais (1,6-1,699), curtas (< 1,6) e longas (> 1,699). Resultados: De acordo com os resultados da análise facial, avaliou-se a proporção do tríquion-gnátio/zigoma direito-zigoma esquerdo e 33,1% dos pacientes apresentaram morfologia facial normal, enquanto 36,8% tinham morfologia facial longa e 30,1% morfologia facial curta, segundo essa proporção. A proporção do tríquion-gnátio/zigoma direito-zigoma esquerdo foi significantemente maior em homens do que em mulheres (p < 0,001). Uma diferença estatisticamente significante foi observada entre os sexos, de acordo com a proporção do tríquion-gnátio/zigoma direito-zigoma esquerdo e do canto lateral direito-canto lateral esquerdo/ângulo cantal direito- ângulo cantal esquerdo (p = 0,001, p = 0,028). Conclusão: A avaliação da proporção facial em relação à proporção áurea mostrou que houve diferença estatisticamente significante entre os sexos. A morfologia facial longa foi mais observada no sexo masculino (51,4%), a morfologia facial normal (41%) e a curta (39,3%) foram mais comuns no sexo feminino. As medidas e proporções para o equilíbrio facial em nossa população estudada mostraram que as proporções de largura e altura faciais se desviaram da proporção áurea.

RESUMO

Objective: The present study aimed to explore the existence of golden proportion (GP) between the widths of maxillary anterior teeth and golden standard (GS) for width to height ratio of maxillary central incisor in individuals with attractive and non-attractive smiles. Material and Methods: A total 82 females were recruited and divided into 2 groups: attractive smile (n=41) and non-attractive smile (n=41). Frontal photographs were taken, scanned, and saved in a personal computer. The apparent mesiodistal width of each anterior tooth was measured. The data were analyzed using the appropriate statistical tests at a P-value of 0.05). Conclusion: Frequency of the golden proportion was very low among the study population. Smile attractiveness was not greatly related to the proportions between the teeth. (AU)

RESUMO

Quando dentes anteriores são perdidos a substituição artificial é necessária. Um dos maiores objetivos para os profissionais de Odontologia é produzir próteses que desafiam a sua detecção. Restabelecer uma adequada dimensão mésio-distal dos dentes anteriores superiores é talvez o maior desafio e a maior dificuldade encontrada pelos cirurgiões dentistas principalmente frente à falta de registros prévios à extração. Nesse contexto o presente trabalho, através de uma revisão de literatura, avaliou a confiabilidade das medidas faciais, bem como da proporção áurea para a seleção adequada da largura dos dentes anteriores superiores. Através desse estudo pode-se observar que a proporção áurea não é encontrada na maioria da população bem como a maior parte das técnicas que utilizam referências anatômicas faciais não devem ser usadas como um fator preditivo para a seleção dos dentes anteriores superiores, porém podem ser usadas como um guia, pois podem ser importantes ferramentas na reabilitação de um sorriso quando não há referências para o planejamento. Parece serem necessários mais estudos para procurar as causas desses métodos não serem encontrados em uma parcela significativa da população.

RESUMO

ABSTRACT In view of the traditional use of Tabebuia aurea for treating pain and inflammation, the antinociceptive pharmacological potential of T. aurea ethanolic extracts (TAEE) was investigated through in vivo experimental models. First, the MTT assay was conducted to determine the potential cytotoxicity of the TAEEs. Afterwards, the acetic acid-induced writhing test and the formalin-, and glutamate-induced nociception tests were performed on Swiss adult mice treated with TAEEs (100 and 200 mg/kg doses, p.o.), or saline solution (control groups, 10mL/kg, p.o.), or standard drugs: dipyrone 40 mg/kg (p.o.), and morphine 5,7 mg/kg (i.p). In the MTT assay, none of the tested concentrations demonstrated signals of cytotoxicity. In the in vivo experimental models of acetic acid-induced writhing and glutamate-induced nociception, all TAEEs doses were able to statistically reduce the nociceptive response. However, the TAEEs did not show significant decrease in the amount of time that the animals spent licking the stimulated paw in the neurogenic phase of formalin-induced nociception test, differently of what was observed in the inflammatory phase. The results showed that T. aurea species induce an antinociceptive effect in rodents, which encourages the study of new drugs and contributes to the research on natural products.

Introduction: the clinical ability to modify the dentofacial form through orthodontic treatment, maxillofacial surgery, or plastic surgery requires an understanding of facial beauty, including the evaluation of facial aesthetics, proportions, and symmetry. Objective: to analyze the relationship between the components of the golden ratio and the facial parameter of students in the province of Chiclayo. Methods: the study population was represented by 88 students who met the following inclusion criteria: age between 17 and 28 years, both sexes, without orthodontic treatment, with class I malocclusion and complete dentition. A data collection form for craniofacial anthropometric measurements was designed. The examiners were calibrated, the stability of the intra- and inter-rater concordance was evaluated using the Cohen's Kappa coefficient. For the contrast of the hypothesis, the correlation coefficient square chi was used. For all statistical tests, the level of significance was 5 percent (p< 0.05). Results: 65.91 percent of all the patients were observed to have a divine proportion in their external dimension: 48.86 percent are brachifacial, 13.64 percent mesofacial, and 3.41 percent dolichofacial. 57.95 percent of the total number of patients presented divine proportion in its vertical relation: 42.05 percent are brachifacial, 10.23 percent mesofacial, and 5.68 percent dolichofacial. Regarding the harmonic profile, 70.45 percent of the total number of patients did not present a divine proportion: 53.41 percent are brachifacial, 10.23 percent are mesofacial, and 6.82 percent are dolichofacial. Conclusions: there is only a relationship between the golden ratio in its external dimension component and the facial parameter. The golden ratio was fulfilled in all its components, in a greater percentage in the brachifacial individuals, and there was a predominance of the golden ratio in the female sex(AU)

RESUMO

Abstract The essential oil (EO) composition of leaves of Campomanesia aurea was analyzed by GC-MS. The plant was collected in April (EOA) and October (EOO) in São Francisco de Assis/RS. The essential oils were obtained by hydrodistillation in a modified Clevenger apparatus. The yields were 4.44% in April, and 6.15%, in October. Thirty-one compounds were identified in EOA, accounting for 96.87% of the total, and twenty-eight compounds were identified in EOO, accounting for 99.46% of the total. For EOA, the major identified monoterpene was p-cymene (8.33%) and the major identified sesquiterpene was -cadinol (10.72%), while regarding EOO the major identified monoterpene was repeatedly Terpinolene (3.43%), whereas the major identified sesquiterpene was -cadinol (12.79%). The antibacterial activity of the essential oil was evaluated against the three Listeria monocytogenes from the American Type Culture Collection (strains ATCC 7644, 19114 and 13932). The essential oil showed a MIC of 10 mg/mL against the strains ATCC 7644 and 19114, with bacteriostatic effect of 20 mg/mL and a MIC of 20 mg/mL for ATCC 13932. Regarding the antibiofilm activity, o EOO showed the best results with an inhibition of 90% in the sessile growth with an applied concentration of 4.0 mg/mL.

RESUMO

The aim of the present study is to determine the frequency of the occurrence of supraorbital foramen/notch (SOF/N) in the skulls of the people who lived in the modern era and the late Byzantine era, to determine the symmetry and the asymmetry between the two halves of the skulls by measuring the linear distance to various landmarks, to check the consistency between the location of the SOF/N and the golden ratio by calculating the ratio between linear distances and to evaluate the differences between the skulls from both historical periods. In the study, the frequency of the occurrence of the supraorbital notch in the skulls from the Byzantine era was found to be 26.60 % on the right and 13.30 % on the left while it was 14.30 % on the right and 9.52 % on the left in the skulls belonging to modern humans. In the skulls belonging to the Byzantine era, the average distance between SOF/N and the sagittal axis passing along the lateral orbital wall was found to be 34.81±2.51 mm and 32.99±2.81 mm respectively on the right and the left while it was 33.14±2.19 mm and 33.39±2.06 mm in the skulls belonging to modern era. The average distance between the SOF/N and the sagittal plane passing along the midline of the skull was found to be 24.55±2.79 mm and 21.57±2.44 mm on the right and the left respectively in the skulls belonging to the Byzantine era while it was 0.04±3.30 mm and 20.96±2.37 mm in the skulls belonging to the modern era. The average distance between the SOF/N and sagittal plane passing along the medial orbital wall was found to be 23.78±3.60 mm and 23.81±3.20 mm on the right and the left respectively in the skulls belonging to the Byzantine era while it was found to be 22.23±3.29 mm and 23.97±1.93 mm in the skulls belonging to the modern era. The average value of the distance between the sagittal planes passing along the lateral and medial sides of the orbit and the ratios between the distance from SOF/N to the sagittal plane passing along the lateral side of the orbit was found to be 1.47±0.21 mm and 1.60±0.08 mm respectively in the skulls belonging to the Byzantine era and the modern era. No significant difference was found between this ratio and the golden ratio; the average value of the ratios between the distance from the SOF/N to the sagittal plane passing along the midline of the skull and the distance from the SOF/N to the sagittal plane passing along the lateral side of the orbit was found to be 0.98±0.26 mm and 1.04±0.36 mm respectively in the skulls belonging to the Byzantine era and the modern era. A significant difference was found between this ratio and the golden ratio for both historical periods (modern society and late Byzantine period) (p <0.005). The comparison of the relevant anatomic characteristics of the SOF/N is very important for anthropologists while a broad knowledge on proportional calculations regarding morphometric values and the location are important for reconstructive surgeons and the experts in forensics and pain control.

El objetivo fue determinar la frecuencia del foramen y incisura supraorbitaria (FSO/E) en cráneos de individuos de la era moderna y aquellos de la era bizantina, para determinar la simetría y asimetría entre las dos mitades de cráneos, mediante la medición de la distancia lineal a varios puntos de referencia, para comprobar la coherencia entre la ubicación del FSO/ y la proporción áurea, a través del cálculo de la relación entre las distancias lineales. Además, se evaluaron las diferencias entre los cráneos de periodos históricos. En el estudio, se determinó que la frecuencia registrada de la incisura supraorbitaria en los cráneos de la época bizantina fue del 26,60% en el lado derecho y 13,30 % en el izquierdo; mientras que en cráneos humanos modernos fue de 14,30% en el lado derecho y 9,52 % en el izquierdo. En los cráneos pertenecientes a la época bizantina, la distancia media entre FSO/E y el eje sagital a lo largo de la pared lateral de la órbita fue de 34,81±2,51 mm y 32,99±2,81 mm, a la derecha e izquierda, respectivamente; mientras que en cráneos de la era moderna fue de 33,14±2,19 mm y 33,39±2,06 mm, a la derecha e izquierda, respectivamente. La distancia media entre la FSO/E y el plano sagital que pasa a lo largo de la línea mediana del cráneo, en los cráneos de la época bizantina, fue de 24,55±2,79 mm y 21,57±2,44 mm a la derecha e izquierda, respectivamente; mientras que fue de 0,04±3,30 mm y 20,96±2,37 mm en los cráneos de la era moderna. La distancia media entre la FSO/E y el plano sagital que pasa a lo largo de la pared medial de la órbita, en los cráneos pertenecientes a la época bizantina fue de 23,78±3,60 mm y 23,81±3,20 mm, a la derecha e izquierda, respectivamente; mientras que en los cráneos pertenecientes a la era moderna fue de 22,23±3,29 mm y 23,97±1,93 mm, a la derecha e izquierda, respectivamente. Se determinó que el valor medio de la distancia entre los planos sagitales a lo largo de los márgenes lateral y medial de la órbita y las proporciones entre la distancia desde FSO/E al plano sagital a lo largo del lado lateral de la órbita fueron de 1,47±0,21 mm y 1,60±0,08, respectivamente, en los cráneos pertenecientes a la época bizantina y la era moderna. No encontramos diferencias significativas entre esta relación y la proporción áurea. El valor medio de las relaciones entre la distancia de la FSO/E al plano a lo largo de la línea mediana del cráneo y la distancia de la FSO/E al plano sagital a lo largo de la pared lateral de la órbita fueron de 0,98±0,26 mm y 1,04±0,36 mm, respectivamente, en los cráneos pertenecientes a la era bizantina y la era moderna. No se encontró una diferencia significativa entre esta relación y la proporción áurea en ambos períodos históricos (la sociedad moderna y el periodo bizantino tardío) (p <0,005). La comparación de características anatómicas relevantes para el FSO/E son importantes para los antropólogos, donde un conocimiento integro de cálculos proporcionales con respecto a los valores morfométricos, mientras que para los cirujanos reconstructivos y los expertos en medicina forense es importante su ubicación.

RESUMO

The aim of this study was to examine the morphometric characteristics of the infraorbital foramen of skulls of people living in modern society and in the late Byzantine period, to ascertain the symmetry or asymmetry of the two halves of the skulls by measuring the linear distance between various landmarks, to evaluate at the conformity between the infraorbital foramen and the golden ratio by calculating the ratios between these linear distances, and to set out the differences or similarities between the skulls of these different periods. It was found in the study that the morphometric characteristics of the infraorbital foramen in skulls of the modern period were 47.05 % circular, 41.17 % oval and 11.76 % atypical (semilunar and triangular) on the right, and 70.58 % circular and 29.41 % oval on the left, while those of the Byzantine period were 46.06 % circular and 53.3% oval on the right, and 50% circular and 50 % oval on the left. It was found that the measurements across the infraorbital foramen of the Byzantine skulls averaged 2.93±1.05 mm and 3.15±1.03 mm on the right side and 2.62±0.97 mm and 3.16±0.68 mm on the left vertically and horizontally respectively, and those of the modern period measured 2.32±0.50 mm and 3.00±0.92 mm on the right and 2.48±0.45 mm and 2.76±0.65 mm on the left vertically and horizontally respectively. The ratio between the distances from the outer orbital wall of the IOF to the sagittal plane and the piriform aperture were 1.46±0.25 mm and 1.40±0.21 mm for left and right respectively for the Byzantine skulls, and 1.24±0.24 mm and 1.29±0.42 mm for the modern skulls. A significant difference was found between the ratio obtained and the golden ratio for each of the periods (modern and Byzantine) (p<0.005). A comparison of anatomical characteristics of the infraorbital foramen of people living at different historical periods is important for anthropologists and knowing morphological types and amassing knowledge on the proportional calculation of location is important for dentistry, maxillofacial surgery and algology.

El objetivo fue examinar las características morfométricas de los forámenes infraorbitarios en cráneos de personas que viven en la sociedad moderna y aquellas que vivieron en el periodo bizantino tardío, para determinar la simetría o asimetría de las dos mitades de los cráneos. Se realizó la medición de la distancia lineal entre varios puntos de referencia, para evaluar la conformidad entre el foramen infraorbitario (FO) y la proporción áurea, mediante el cálculo de la relación entre esas distancias lineales, así como las diferencias y similitudes entre los cráneos de estos períodos. En relación a las características morfométricas, se encontraron en cráneos de la época moderna FO circulares (47,05%), ovalados (41,17 %) y atípicos (semilunar y triangular) en un 11,76 %, del lado derecha, y en el lado izquierdo estos porcentajes correspondieron a circulares (70,58 %) y ovalados (29,41%). Por su parte, los cráneos del período bizantino presentaron FO circulares (46,06 %) y ovalados (53,3 %) del lado derecho, mientras que del lado izquierdo fueron circulares (50 %) y ovalados (50 %). Se encontró que las medidas del FO de los cráneos bizantino tuvo un promedio de 2,93±1,05 mm y 3,15±1,03 mm en el lado derecho, y 2,62±0,97 mm y 3,16±0,68 mm a la izquierda, vertical y horizontal, respectivamente; y en el período moderno midieron 2,32±0,50 mm y 3,00±0,92 mm a la derecha y 2,48±0,45 mm y 2,76±0,65 mm a la izquierda, en medidas verticales y horizontales respectivamente. La relación entre las distancias de la pared orbitaria exterior del FO al plano sagital y la apertura piriforme fue de 1,46±0,25 mm y 1,40±0,21 mm, a izquierda y derecha respectivamente, para los cráneos bizantinos; y 1,24±0,24 mm y 1,29±0,42 mm para los cráneos modernos. Se encontró una diferencia significativa entre la proporción obtenida y la proporción áurea para cada uno de los períodos (moderno y bizantino) (p <0,005). La comparación de las características anatómicas del FO de individuos que vivieron en diferentes períodos históricos es valioso para los antropólogos y los conocimientos sobre el cálculo proporcional de la ubicación del FO son importantes en la odontología, cirugía maxilofacial y el estudio del dolor.

RESUMO

Understanding the dispersal routes of Neotropical savanna tree species is an essential step to unravel the effects of past climate change on genetic patterns, species distribution and population demography. Here we reconstruct the demographic history and dispersal dynamics of the Neotropical savanna tree species Tabebuia aurea to understand the effects of Quaternary climate change on its current spatial patterns of genetic diversity. We sampled 285 individuals from 21 populations throughout Brazilian savannas and sequenced all individuals for three chloroplast intergenic spacers and ITS nrDNA. We analyzed data using a multi-model inference framework by coupling the relaxed random walk model (RRW), ecological niche modeling (ENM) and statistical phylogeography. The most recent common ancestor of T. aurea lineages dated from ~4.0 ± 2.5 Ma. T. aurea lineages cyclically dispersed from the West toward the Central-West Brazil, and from the Southeast toward the East and Northeast Brazil, following the paleodistribution dynamics shown by the ENMs through the last glacial cycle. A historical refugium through time may have allowed dispersal of lineages among populations of Central Brazil, overlapping with population expansion during interglacial periods and the diversification of new lineages. Range and population expansion through the Quaternary were, respectively, the most frequent prediction from ENMs and the most likely demographic scenario from coalescent simulations. Consistent phylogeographic patterns among multiple modeling inferences indicate a promising approach, allowing us to understand how cyclical climate changes through the Quaternary drove complex population dynamics and the current patterns of species distribution and genetic diversity.

RESUMO

Compostos fenólicos e capacidade antioxidante são mecanismos de defesa das plantas aos danos do estresse oxidativo. Os compostos fenólicos são sintetizados pela via dos fenilpropanoides, cuja enzima chave, fenilalanina amônia liase, é influenciada pela luz e ação de fotorreceptores, como o fitocromo. O objetivo do presente trabalho é avaliar a concentração de compostos fenólicos e a capacidade antioxidante de frutos de microtomateiro selvagem, cultivar "Micro-Tom" (MT), e seus mutantes fotomorfogenéticos high pigment 1 (hp1), super-responsivo a eventos mediados por luz e aurea (au), deficiente quantitativo em fitocromos. Vinte frutos maduros de cada genótipo (MT, hp1 e au) foram utilizados para as análises, realizadas em triplicata. Para quantificação dos compostos fenólicos totais, foi utilizado o método de Folin-Ciocalteu e a capacidade antioxidante foi realizada pelos métodos Ferric Reducing Antioxidant Power (FRAP) e 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH). Os frutos do mutante hp1 apresentaram maiores conteúdos de compostos fenólicos totais e também maior capacidade antioxidante em relação à cultivar selvagem ("MT") e ao mutante au, o qual não diferiu significativamente da cultivar "MT".

Phenolic compounds and antioxidant capacity are defense mechanisms of plants against the oxidative stress damage. Phenolic compounds are synthesized through the phenylpropanoid pathway, where the enzyme phenylalanine-ammonia-lyase plays a key role and it is influenced by light and photoreceptors such as phytochromes. The present research aims to evaluate the phenolic compounds content and antioxidant capacity of the wild "Micro-Tom" (MT) cultivar tomato fruits and its photomorphogenic mutant tomato plants high pigment 1 (hp1), super responsive to events mediated by light, and aurea (au), quantitative phytochrome deficient. Twenty mature fruits of each genotype ("MT", hp1, au) were used in triplicate for analyses. To quantify the total phenolic compounds the Folin-Ciocalteu method was used and the antioxidant capacity was analyzed by Ferric Reducing Antioxidant Power (FRAP) and 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) methods. The hp1 mutant presented the highest total phenolic compounds content and higher antioxidant capacity than wild cultivar ("MT") and au mutant, which did not differ significantly from "MT" cultivar.

RESUMO

RESUMO As espécies da família Bignoniaceae e do gênero Tabebuia são amplamente utilizadas na medicina tradicional e possuem um forte potencial terapêutico. Diante disso, objetivou-se avaliar o potencial biológico da Tabebuia aurea, determinando a atividade antimicrobiana; por meio do método da microdiluição em caldo, para a determinação da Concentração Inibitória Mínima (CIM); antiedematogênica, pelo ensaio de edema de orelha induzido por capsaicina; e antirradicalar, frente ao radical DPPH. Os extratos etanólicos de T. aurea não evidenciaram citotoxicidade, exceto o extrato etanólico da flor nas concentrações > 0,5 mg mL-1. O extrato etanólico da flor foi ativo com ação bactericida frente a S. epidermidis (CIM de 0,06 mg mL-1) enquanto o extrato etanólico da folha foi moderadamente ativo frente a S. epidermidis (CIM: 0,25 mg mL-1) e S. aureus (CIM: 0,50 mg mL-1) sugerindo ação bacteriostática para ambas as linhagens. Os dois extratos apresentaram ação antiedematogênica, com inibição do edema de 40,50% pelo extrato etanólico da flor e de 41,73% pelo extrato da folha. T. aurea não apresentou atividade antirradicalar. Os resultados comprovam o perfil antibacteriano e antiedematogênico com ausência de citotoxidade pela T. aurea. Sugere-se a continuação dos testes com frações e substâncias isoladas das flores e folhas da referida espécie vegetal, bem como de experimentos in vivo, como forma de agregar evidências visando à busca de novos fitoterápicos.

ABSTRACT The species of Bignoniaceae family and genus Tabebuia are widely used in the traditional medicine and have a great therapeutic potential. The aim of the current research was to evaluate the biological potential of the Tabebuia aurea, determining its antimicrobial activity by the microdilution broth method, to predict the anti-edematogenic Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) by ear edema assay induced by capsaicin; and the antiradical one, towards DPPH. The ethanol extracts of T. aureashowed no cytotoxicity, except for the flower ethanol extract in concentrations above > 0.5 mg mL-1. The ethanol extract of the flower was active, with bactericidal action, against S. epidermidis (MIC 0.06 mg ml-1) and the ethanol extract of moderately active recto S. epidermidis (CIM: 0.25 mg mL-1) and S. aureus (MIC: 0.50 mg mL-1) were bacteriostatic for both strains. Both extracts had antiedematogenic action on the inhibition of edema of 40.50% by the ethanol extract of the flower and 41.73% by leaf extract. T. aurea did not show antiradical activity. The results indicate the antibacterial and antiedematogenic profile with no cytotoxicity by the T. aurea. It suggests the continuation of tests with isolated fractions and substances of flowers and leaves of that plant species as well as in vivo trials, in order to enhance the evidences targeted on finding new herbal medicines.

Cuando se comparó con las proporciones en las diferentes clases en relación con el número de oro (1 618), hubo diferencia estadísticamente significativa en la clase I para las (N-Ena/V1S-DM16, razones V1S-C1MS/C1MS-DM16, Ena-Me/AB), y en clase II de (A-Pog/V1-C1MS razones, A-Pog/V1S-MD16) y clase III para los (N-Ena/V1S-DM16 razones, Ena-Enp/V1S-C1MS, V1S-C1MS/C1MS-DM16, Ena-Me/AB). Conclusiones: de acuerdo con la metodología utilizada y los resultados obtenidos, se concluyó que en siete de las razones expuestas, la clase que tenía tres razones áureas se observó en dos y cuatro, clase II a clase III. El grupo de clase II fueron razones áureas con componente dental y horizontal, lo que sugiere que la magnitud del error es importante en el concepto de estética facial sagital. El grupo de clase II fueron razones áureas con componente dental y medidas verticales, y también sugiere que la magnitud del error es importante en el concepto de estética facial sagital(AU)

Introduction: the original concept of beauty refers to a set of harmony and balance features determined by bone, dental and soft tissue. Objective: the purpose of this study was to analyze divine proportion as reflected on cephalometric radiographs of 93 Brazilian subjects of both sexes aged 18 with skeletal classes I, II and III, not undergoing orthodontic treatment. The analysis was based on cephalometric software Aurea Ceph. Methods: statistical analysis was performed with ANOVA, Tukey's test and Student's t test. The significance level was 5 percent. Results: the seven ratios studied showed a statistically significant difference between proportions when comparing (N-Ena/V1S-DM16) classes I and III, and (A-Pog/V1-C1MS, A-Pog/V1S-MD16) classes II and III. When proportions in the different classes were compared with the golden number (1 618), a statistically significant difference was found in class I for (N-Ena/V1S-DM16, V1S-C1MS/C1MS-DM16, Ena-Me/AB), in class II for (A-Pog/V1-C1MS, A-Pog/V1S-MD16) and in class III for (N-Ena/V1S-DM16, Ena-Enp/V1S-C1MS, V1S-C1MS/C1MS-DM16, Ena-Me/AB). Conclusions: based on the methodology used and the results obtained, it was concluded that in seven of the ratios presented, the class with three golden ratios was found in two and four, class II to class III. The class II group were golden ratios with a dental and horizontal component, suggesting that the magnitude of the error is relevant to the concept of sagittal facial aesthetics. The class II group were golden ratios with a dental component and vertical measurements, also suggesting that the magnitude of the error is relevant to the concept of sagittal facial aesthetics(AU)
