when exposed to aluminum. An extensive annotation of the differentially expressed genes (DEGs), made possible to identify several transcripts with putative functions correlated to aluminum exposure, most belonging to vesicle transportation, cell wall modifications and metal handling ontologies. In this work, abundant, high-quality transcripts were obtained, providing a reference platform for future biotechnological studies and breeding programs for this species and its close relatives.

HighlightsDog bites are common and can affect victims of different ages, from children to the elderly.We present a 11-year-old male with multiple and extensive lesions on the face.The primary treatment of bites is by means of direct suture.

Distribuição espacial de tuberculose nas populações indígenas e não indígenas do estado doCenters in Pará. The tuberculosis incidence rates were calculated for indigenous and non-indigenous populations in the 13 regions and maps were prepared to visualize the magnitude of the occurrence of tuberculosis. Results: Significant differences in the incidence of tuberculosis were found among non-indigenous and indigenous populations, reaching 7,812/100,000 inhabitants and 118/100,000 inhabitants respectively. Conclusion: Tuberculosis was distributed heterogeneously among the indigenous and non-indigenous populations. Moreover, it was possible to identify areas with high risk for this disease. It is important to note that knowledge about priority areas for tuberculosis control can help health service management to improve indicators that assess this disease and to develop different policies for indigenous peoples.Keywords: Tuberculosis; Indigenous Population; Spatial Analysis. Método: Estudio ecológico partir de datos del SINAN, estratificado para los 13 Centros Regionales de Salud existentes en Pará.Se calcularon las tasas de incidencia de tuberculosis en indígenas y no indígenas en las 13 regiones, y se confeccionaron los mapas para visualizar la magnitud de la incidencia de la tuberculosis. Resultados: Se encontró diferencias significativas en la incidencia de la tuberculosis entre la población no indígena y indígena, llegando a 7.812/100 mil habitantes y 118/100 mil habitantes. Conclusión: Se observó que la tuberculosis presenta una distribución heterogénea entre la población indígena y no indígena, y se pudo identificar las zonas con alto riesgo de la enfermedad. Es importante tener en cuenta que el conocimiento de las áreas prioritarias para el control de la tuberculosis puede ayudar a la gestión de los servicios de salud, para mejorar los índices que evalúan la enfermedad y desarrollar diferentes políticas para los pueblos indígenas.

In this work we report on the presence of morphological deformities in Corydoras aff. longipinnis from two reservoirs in Paraná State, Brazil. The frequency of deformities in the fish populations was 11% in Iraí and 10.5% in Capivari reservoirs. Considering that the frequency may be associated with impacts caused by anthropic activities, this information can be used as a metric in management systems and environmental monitoring.

| Background: Occupational accidents are considered public health problems, where there are gaps regarding studies on this theme in the northern region of Brazil with focus on nursing professionals. Aims: To analyze the factors related to occupational accidents in nursing professionals occurred in a large public hospital in Belém (PA) from January 2009 to December 2016. Method: Analytical, retrospective and longitudinal study with a quantitative approach by means of documentary census with a sample of 211 Work Accident Registry. We applied the Variance Analysis (ANOVA) tests for repeated measurements, chi-square of independence and t student for independent samples. Results: Female workers (72,04%), nursing technicians (88,15%) between the ages of 30 and 36 (34,13%), singles (45,18%) and public servants (95,74%) are most affected by occupational accidents, mainly typical accidents (91,94%). Sharps are the major causative agents (34,12%), morning (p=0,001) and afternoon (p=0,035) shifts have the highest mean number of accidents, and accidents occurred mostly in upper limbs (56,87%) and in the psychiatry sector (34,12%). The highest incidence rates of occupational accidents occurred in 2012 (49.5) and 2014 (60.2) per 1.000 professionals/year. Conclusion: As much as these results are similar to others evidenced and available in the literature, the study is particular because it is data from a public hospital in the northern region, an area that is not covered by studies of nature this.

Este trabalho apresenta e discute os resultados de uma pesquisa sobre o discurso em salas de aula de Química e que teve como objeto os questionamentos do professor e dos estudantes. Baseada no conceito de enquadramento oriundo da teoria sobre o discurso pedagógico de Basil Bernstein e nos tipos de iniciação de Hugh Mehan, a pesquisa teve como objetivo estudar a influência dos contextos sociais sobre a prática pedagógica de professores de Química e sua manifestação sobre seus questionamentos em sala de aula. Por meio da análise, comparamos o posicionamento do professor durante os episódios de questionamento e os tipos de iniciação apresentados nas perguntas do docente e de seus estudantes. A metodologia da pesquisa foi baseada em um estudo de caso, e os dados foram coletados em duas escolas urbanas de Ensino Médio situadas em diferentes contextos socioeconômicos. Os resultados mostraram diferenças no posicionamento do professor tanto em relação às respostas dos alunos quanto em relação às suas perguntas em ambas as escolas e também diferenças no posicionamento do professor em relação às perguntas dos alunos entre as escolas. Também com base nos resultados de nossa análise, identificamos uma relação entre o tipo de iniciação e os graus de enquadramento da prática pedagógica. Atribuímos estes resultados à diferença no ritmo das práticas pedagógicas entre as escolas e ao modo de controle do professor frente aos alunos das duas escolas. Tais diferenças geraram diferentes cadeias de interação e perguntas com níveis conceituais distintos.
