Desenvolveram-se dois experimentos em áreas distintas. No primeiro ensaio, testou-se a influência de cultivos intercalares, amendoim forrageiro e capim coastcross e posterior roçagem da massa formada sob a copa de laranjeiras 'Natal', na flutuação populacional de ascósporos e na severidade da doença, enquanto que no segundo, foi avaliado o efeito de diferentes tratamentos [(1) uréia 12,5 g/litro; (2) nitrato de cálcio 12,5 g/litro; (3) calcário dolomítico 2 t/ha; (4) microrganismos eficazes 1% do produto ativado; (5) combinação dos produtos comerciais Stuble Aid® + Compostaid® 0,75 mL/litro + 0,75 g/litro e (6) Testemunha] na aceleração da decomposição de folhas de limoeiros 'Siciliano' caídas sob a copa das plantas e na severidade da doença. Concluiu-se que o capim coastcross foi a espécie mais eficiente na supressão da liberação de ascósporos, com conseqüente redução da severidade da doença. No segundo ensaio, os tratamentos representados pela adição de microrganismos foram os mais eficientes na aceleração da decomposição de folhas de limoeiro, porém quanto à severidade da doença, todos os tratamentos apresentaram o mesmo comportamento, com reduções significativas em relação à testemunha. / Abstract: The present research was developed in citrus orchards located in commercial property in Rio Claro - SP region and it had as an objective the determination of the effect of cultural practice in the reduction of the source of inoculum and, consequently the reduction of strictness black spots in citric fruit, caused by Guignardia citricarpa. Two experiments in distinct areas were developed. In the first one, the influence of intercalary culture (peanut and coastcross grass) and later the skim of the a dough formed on the orange trees top 'Natal', in the floating of ascospores and in the strictness of the disease, while in the second experiment, the effect of different treatments were evaluated [(1) urea 12,5 g/liter; (2) calcium nitrate 12,5 g/liter; (3) dolomitic calcareous 2t/ha; (4) efficient microrganisms 1% from the active product; (5) the combination of the commercial products Stuble Aid® + Compostaid® 0,75 mL/liter + 0,75 g/liter and (6) Control] in the acceleration of the 'Siciliano' lemon trees leaves decomposition fallen down on the top trees and in the severity of the disease. It was concluded that the coastcross grass was the most efficient species in the supression of the discharge of the ascospores and in the decrease of the severity disease. In the second experiment, the treatments represented by the addition of microorganisms were the most efficient in the acceleration of the lemon trees leaves decomposition, however as for the severity of the disease, all the treatments presented the same performance, with statistically significative decreases in relation to control. / Mestre

Also, this study aimed to estimate the prevalence of dental black stains from a cohort of children born in 2004 in Pelotas, RS, Brazil, evaluating the association with dental caries. For the systematic review, the following electronic databases were accessed: Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, Web of Science, EMBASE, MEDLINE, PubMed, LILACS, BBO. No language restriction was used and the combinations of the following keywords were used: prevalence, black stain teeth, black tooth stain, and their equivalents in Portuguese. The search was limited to studies in children and adolescents with deciduous and permanent teeth, and all studies showing prevalence of black stains were included. The selection of studies was done by three reviewers independently. The cross-sectional study included a sample of 1129 five years old children belonging to the Pelotas birth cohort. Children were visited to carry out examination and a questionnaire including questions about demographics conditions, habits and behaviors related to oral health. Clinical examination included assessment of the presence or absence of black stains and presence of caries by DMFT. Logistic regression was used to analyze the data.The prevalence of black stains was 3.5% (95% CI 2.5 to 4.7), and the prevalence of caries was 48.4% (95% CI 45.4 to 51.4). Black stains and decay were more prevalent in light or dark-skinned black children, in those from mothers with lower level of education and low income level. Adjusted analysis revealed that the presence of black stains was associated with lower levels of dental caries (OR=0.51; 95% CI=0.26-0.99; p=0.048). Considering the results from the systematic review, 129 papers were found from the search with the keywords, and nine met the established inclusion criteria. The prevalence of black stains found in the studies was 10.4% (95% CI 6.8 to 14.1) for permanent teeth, and 4.0% (95% CI 0.43 to 7.5) for deciduous teeth. From the selected studies, five showed lower caries experience in individuals with black stains on the teeth. Conclusions: Based on the analysis of the reviewed studies and considering the data from the cross-sectional study conducted, it is suggested that the diagnosis of black stains should be based on the presence of black spots and / or the formation of linear pigmentation round the gingival margin and / or diffuse the dental crown, and these patches must be difficult to remove, and must be present in at least two teeth. Dark stains can be considered a condition of protection to tooth decay, but studies must be conducted so that the determinant of the black stains and therefore the actual protective factor is known and further explored / O objetivo do presente estudo foi realizar uma revisão sistemática sobre prevalência de manchas negras e associação com cárie dentária; e estimar a prevalência de manchas negras dentais em crianças pertencentes à coorte de nascimentos de 2004 de Pelotas, RS-Brasil, avaliando a sua associação com cárie dentária. Para a revisão sistemática, as seguintes bases eletrônicas de dados foram acessadas: Cochrane Central RegisterofControlledTrials, ISI Web of Science, EMBASE, Medline, PubMed, LILACS, BBO. Não houve restrição de idioma e foram utilizadas combinações entre as seguintes palavras-chave: prevalence, blackstainteeth, blackstaintooth, e seus correspondentes na língua portuguesa.A pesquisa foi limitada a estudos em crianças e adolescentes com dentição decídua e permanente, e para serem incluídos, deveriam conter dados sobre a prevalência de manchas negras. A seleção dos estudos foi feita por três avaliadores de forma independente. O estudo transversal abrangeu uma amostra de 1129 crianças pertencentes à coorte de nascimentos de Pelotas. As crianças foram visitadas para realização de exame bucal e aplicação de questionário incluindo questões demográficas e sobre hábitos e comportamentos relativos à saúde bucal. O exame clínico incluiu avaliação da presença ou ausência de manchas negras e presença de cáries através do índice ceo-d.Regressão logística foi utilizada para analisar os dados. A prevalência de manchas negras foi de 3,5% [(IC 95% 2,5-4,7)], e a prevalência de cáries foi 48,4% (IC 95% 45,4-51,4). Manchas negras e cáries foram mais prevalentes em mulatos e negros, em filhos de mães com menos anos de estudo, assim como em filhos de mães de baixa renda.A análise ajustada para fatores confundidores revelou associação entre manchas negras e baixos níveis de cárie (OR=0,51; IC 95%=0,26-0,99; p=0,048). Os resultados desse estudo sugerem que a presença de manchas negras é fator de proteção para cárie dentária. Considerando os resultados da revisão sistemática realizada, foram encontrados 129 artigos a partir das palavras-chave utilizadas, e destes, noveatenderam os critérios de inclusão estabelecidos. A prevalência média de manchas negras encontrada nos estudos foi 10,4% (IC 95% 6,8-14,1) para dentes permanentes, e 4,0% (IC 95% 0,43-7,5) para dentes decíduos. Dos artigos selecionados, cinco evidenciaram menor experiência de cárie em indivíduos com manchas negras nos dentes.Conclusões: A partir da análise dos artigose considerando os dados do estudo transversal realizado, sugere-se que o diagnóstico de manchas negras deve ser baseado na presença de pontos negros e/ou na formação de pigmentação linear contornando a margem gengival e/ou difusos pela coroa dentária, e estas manchas devem ser de difícil remoção, e devem estar presentes em no mínimo dois dentes. As manchas negras podem ser consideradas uma condição de proteção para cárie dentária, no entanto estudos devem ser conduzidos para que o fator determinante das manchas e consequentemente o real fator protetor seja conhecido e melhor explorado

A pesquisa realizada na área do Sítio Arqueológico Célia Maria, localizado na região da Bacia do Rio Santo Anastácio (afluente da Bacia do Paraná), Estado de São Paulo, demonstrou uma ocupação guarani pré-colonial. A cerâmica foi datada por termoluminescência, situando a ocupação em torno de 450±60 anos atrás. Este trabalho traz dados referentes à cerâmica identificada na área do Sítio Célia Maria, que também apresentou três manchas pretas, lítico polido e possível estrutura de combustão. A partir da análise tecno-tipológica da cerâmica, demonstramos a sequência dos gestos técnicos para a produção dos artefatos, assim como reconstituímos graficamente a forma de vasos, a partir de fragmentos de bordas. Essas reconstituições possibilitaram inferir a forma e a função dos antigos recipientes guarani. Os dados espaciais somados às características dos atributos cerâmicos do Sítio Célia Maria foram confrontados com outras pesquisas disponíveis que versaram sobre a presença dos guarani na Bacia do Paraná e Paranapanema. / The research conducted in the archaeological site area Célia Maria, located in the River Basin Santo Anastácio (tributary of the Paraná Basin), State of São Paulo, demonstrated a precolonial Guarani occupation. The pottery was dated by thermoluminescence, standing occupation around 450±60 years ago. This work has data concerning pottery indentified in Site Célia Maria, who also had three black spots, polished lytic and as possible combustion structure. From the techno-typological ceramics analysis, we demonstrated the gestures sequence to the production of technical artifacts, as well as graphically reconstitute the form of vessels, from fragments of edges. These reconstructions allowed inferring the shape and function of the ancient Guarani containers. The data added to the spatial characteristics of ceramics tributes of Site Célia Maria were compared with other available research that focused on the presence of the Guarani in the Basin of Paraná and Paranapanema.

La maladie de la tache noire affecte les fruits d’ananas mature, les rendant impropre à la consommation. Actuellement, aucune méthode de contrôle n'est disponible pour cette maladie. Une meilleure connaissance du pathosystème est nécessaire pour trouver des moyens de lutte efficaces.Des entretiens et échantillonnages menés auprès de producteurs durant l’hiver austral révèlent une prévalence de la maladie de 74%. Les champignons pathogènes appartiennent à plusieurs espèces : Fusarium ananatum (72% des isolats), Talaromyces stollii (21%), F. oxysporum (6%) et F. proliferatum (1%). Leur potentiel toxinogène a été déterminer, Les champignons du genre Fusarium ont produit des mycotoxines identifiées comme les fumonisines FB1, FB2 et la beauvericine. Sur un milieu de culture ananas, une concentration en beauvericine de 34959 µg kg-1 a été mesurée pour l’espèce F. proliferatum.Une méthode d’inoculation de Fusarium ananatum directement dans le parenchyme a permis de décrire la réponse du biochimique du fruit. La voie des phénylpropanoïdes est sollicitée, particulièrement avec l’élicitation du caffeoylisocitrate et du coumaroylisocitrate dans la zone infectée. Une comparaison des profils métaboliques montre que la réponse du fruit à une inoculation est plus importante chez le cultivar résistant ‘MD-2’ que chez le cultivar sensible ‘Queen’. La majorité des métabolites élicités par l’attaque sont déjà présents dans les fruits sains mature de la variété résistante. Le potentiel antifongique des composés phénoliques à était évalué. Les acides coumarique, caféoylquinique et férulique inhibent la croissance du mycélium à des concentrations similaires à celle trouvées dans les fruits infectés.Une approche par imagerie a permis de décrire l’anatomie des fruits des deux cultivars et notamment la fusion imparfaite des sépales et bractée chez ‘Queen’. Les nectaires et les parois carpellaires jouent un rôle clef dans le processus d'infection et de colonisation de Fusarium ananatum. / Fruiltet core rot (FCR) disease affects the fruits of mature pineapples. Current disease controls are not available. A deeper knowledge of the pathosystem is needed to find an effective means of control FCR.A diagnostic survey conducted with producers during the southern winter revealed a prevalence of the disease of 74%. Pathogenic fungi belong to several species: Fusarium ananatum (72% isolates), Talaromyces stollii (21%), F. oxysporum (6%) and F. proliferatum (1%). Their toxinogenic potential was determined. Fusarium fungi produced mycotoxins identified as fumonisins FB1, FB2 and beauvericin. On a pineapple culture medium, a concentration of beauvericine of 34959 μg kg-1 was measured for the species F. proliferatum.A method of inoculating Fusarium ananatum directly into the parenchyma allowed to describe the biochemical response of the fruit. The phenylpropanoids pathway is involved, particularly with the elicitation of caffeoylisocitrate and coumaroylisocitrate in the infected zone. A comparison of the metabolic profiles shows that the response to inoculation of resistant cultivar 'MD-2' is higher than in the sensitive cultivar 'Queen'. Most of the metabolites elicited by the attack are already present in healthy mature fruits of the resistant variety. The antifungal potential of the phenolic compounds was evaluated. Coumaric, caffeoylquinic and ferulic acids inhibit mycelial growth at concentrations similar to those found in infected fruits.An imaging approach allowed to describe the anatomy of the fruits of the two cultivars, to identify the key roles played by nectaries and carpel margins in the infection and colonization process of Fusarium ananatum.

Eine Auswertung der Unfallzahlen der Kommunalen Unfallversicherung Bayerns von 2007 bis 2011 zeigte, dass es innerhalb Bayerns große regionale Unterschiede im fahrradbezogenen Unfallgeschehen auf dem Schulweg gibt. Durch ein mehrstufiges multimethodisches Studiendesign wurde der Frage nachgegangen, ob es in den unfallbelasteten Landkreisen tatsächlich gefährlicher ist mit dem Rad zur Schule zu fahren und nach den Ursachen der räumlichen Diskrepanzen gesucht. Mittels regressionsanalytischer Verfahren konnte ein Großteil der räumlichen Varianz der Unfallraten auf die unterschiedlichen Voraussetzungen zum Radfahren zurückgeführt werden: Je weiter und je hügeliger der Weg zur Schule ist, umso weniger Unfälle ereignen sich, wobei vermutet werden kann, dass dieser Zusammenhang Folge der niedrigen Radnutzung ist. Doch auch bei Landkreisen mit ähnlichen Radfahrbedingungen, etwa bei den kreisfreien Mittelstädten Rosenheim und Schweinfurt, lassen sich große Unterschiede im fahrradbezogenen Unfallgeschehen feststellen. Um zu überprüfen, ob auch hierfür die variierende Radnutzung verantwortlich ist, fand im Rahmen einer Fall-Kontroll-Studie eine Messung der Schulwegmobilität in diesen beiden Städten statt, wodurch das jeweilige expositionsbereinigte Unfallrisiko berechnet werden konnte. Die Erhebung zeigte, dass die distanz- und zeitbezogenen Inzidenzraten der beiden Untersuchungsregionen nahezu identisch sind. Dies belegt, dass das Unfallgeschehen hauptsächlich von der Radnutzung abhängt, wobei die Ursachen für die abweichende Radnutzung durch eine Schüler- und Lehrerbefragung empirisch untersucht wurde. Unfallschwerpunkte im Schülerradverkehr sind also statistische Artefakte, da aus der Unfallrate ohne die Kenntnis der Radnutzung auf das Unfallrisiko geschlossen wurde. Regionsunabhängig aber ist das fahrradspezifische Unfallrisiko auf Schulwegen deutlich höher als etwa auf dem Weg zur Arbeit, was die Dringlichkeit verdeutlicht, präventiv tätig zu werden. / Analyzing the number of accidents between 2007 and 2011, registered by the Kommunale Unfallversicherung Bayern, revealed great regional differences in bicycle traffic accidents on the way to school in Bavaria. A multi-stage, multi-methodical study design was set up to find answers to the question, if it is actually more dangerous to cycle to school in districts with high accident rates. The reasons for regional discrepancies in these accident rates were identified, while a varying rate of bicycle use was detected the main cause for interregional differences in the number of accidents.Regression analysis indicated that the majority of spatial variance in accident rates is based on different cycling conditions; the further and more hilly the way to school, the less accidents occur. However, it can be assumed that this correlation is a consequence of lower bicycle use. On the other hand in regions with similar cycling conditions great differences in bicycle traffic accidents can be observed, which the study shows for the district-free, mid-sized cities Rosenheim and Schweinfurt. This case-control-study on the way-to-school mobility measured for the two cities the exposition-adjusted risk of accident and was performed to reveal if this effect is also caused by varying bicycle use rates. The study pinpointed the fact that distance- and time-related incidence rates are almost identical in both study regions,which is an evidence for bicycle use rates mainly affecting the number of accidents. The reasons for differing bicycle usage were examined empirically by questioning pupils and teachers. As a conclusion, accident black spots in pupils` bicycle traffic are statistical artefacts, as the accident risk was gathered from the accident rate without knowing bicycle use rates. However, regardless of the region, cycling to school is remarkably more dangerous than cycling to work, a fact that underlines the urgency to act preventively.

Στόχος της παρούσας διατριβής είναι η μελέτη των οδικών ατυχημάτων και ο προσδιορισμός των επικίνδυνων θέσεων (μελανών σημείων) στο οδικό δίκτυο της Περιφέρειας Δυτικής Ελλάδας. Πιο συγκεκριμένα, πραγματοποιήθηκε καταγραφή όλων των τροχαίων ατυχημάτων στους Νομούς Αχαΐα, Αιτωλοακαρνανίας και Ηλείας για τη χρονική περίοδο 2000 - 2012. Η συλλογή στοιχείων έγινε από τα κατά τόπους Τμήματα Τροχαίας των Αστυνομικών διευθύνσεων κάθε νομού, για ολόκληρο το οδικό δίκτυο, δηλαδή εθνικό, επαρχιακό και αστικό. Έγινε καταγραφή του κάθε τροχαίου ατυχήματος, του αριθμού νεκρών και τραυματιών, της ημερομηνίας και της ώρας του συμβάντος, της ακριβούς τοποθεσίας, όπως επίσης και των συνθηκών οδοστρώματος και των περιβαλλοντικών συνθηκών που επικρατούσαν τη στιγμή του συμβάντος. Τα στοιχεία που συλλέχθηκαν ομαδοποιήθηκαν κατάλληλα και επεξεργάστηκαν στατιστικά. Στη συνέχεια για κάποια τμήματα των εθνικών οδών της ΠΔΕ έγινε προσδιορισμός των μελανών σημείων με διαφορετικές αριθμητικές και στατιστικές μεθόδους. Δεν έγινε μελέτη των μελανών σημείων για όλο το οδικό δίκτυο της ΠΔΕ καθώς κάτι τέτοιο θα ήταν πέρα από τους σκοπούς της παρούσας διατριβής. / This master thesis aims to study road accidents and identify hotspots at Western Greece Region. First, accidents occurred during 2000 - 2012 at Achaia, Aitoloakarnania and Ilia prefectures were recorded. Each record includes date, time, number of fatalities and injuries, specific location, road and environmental conditions at the moment of the accident. Collected data were grouped and analyzed statistically. Then after reviewing several numerical and statistical methods for hazardous location identification, a selection of methods was made and were applied in order to identify hotspots for some parts of the national road network. Subsequently, conclusions about the condition of the Western Greece Region road network, and the causes of accidents were derived. Finally, proposals for treatment and future research were made.
