A obstrução intestinal por corpo estranho de origem frutífera em primatas não humanos é pouco comum na rotina clínico cirúrgica de animais silvestres, mas de grande relevância quando se trata de animais resgatados que foram submetidos a mudanças alimentares, podendo ocasionar ingestão errônea de frutos inteiros e de sementes de grande tamanho. Desta forma, o objetivo deste trabalho é relatar dois animais do gênero Ateles spp. que apresentaram desconforto abdominal agudo e que foram submetidos à celiotomia exploratória onde observou-se obstrução intraluminal por corpo estranho de origem frutífera do duodeno proximal, ambos os casos foram submetidos ao tratamento cirúrgico e manejo pós-operatório. Observou-se melhora clínica de ambos os animais e foi possível o retorno dos mesmos ao centro de resgate e concluiu-se que a técnica empregada de diagnóstico, tratamento e manejo pós-operatório foi eficiente para a manutenção da vida destes animais.
The pursuit of increasingly sustainable agriculture is a recurring concern worldwide. Sustainability is a global obligation as many of our planet's resources are limited. This review addresses some of the tactics used by Brazilian farmers to achieve better yields without causing major impacts on agroecosystems. Today the challenge is to practice an increasingly efficient agriculture respecting the values of sustainability.
Objective: to analyze the temporal trend of Food and Nutrition Surveillance System (Sistema de Vigilância Alimentar e Nutricional - SISVAN) coverage and the nutritional status of older adults, and its correlation with indicators of social inequality in Brazil between 2008-2019. Methods: this was an ecological study using records from SISVAN, related to the population aged 60 years and older; the temporal trend of coverage and the correlation between indicators of social inequality and increment rate of nutritional status were analyzed; slope index of inequality and concentration index were used to measure absolute and relative inequalities. Results: 11,587,933 records were identified; national coverage increased from 0.1% (2008) to 2.9% (2019), with a statistically significant upward trend; a moderate inverse correlation with an annual increment rate of overweight between human development index and gross domestic product per capita, was found. Conclusion: there was an increasing trend in SISVAN coverage; the increase in overweight was associated with social inequality.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
