13. Os conteúdos da urbanização em Moçambique: considerações a partir da expansão da cidade de Nampula / The contents of urbanization in Mozambique: considerations from the expansion of the city of Nampula
The expansion of Nampula city produces a reality from which it is possible to construct an understanding about the urbanization tendencies in Mozambique. The reflection presented exposes the urbanization in Mozambique as a moment of westernization as well as a process that produces a specific urban reality which contemplates the rural life; specificity expla

14. Estudos de DNA mitocondrial em populações remanescentes de quilombos do Vale do Ribeira - São Paulo / Mitochondrial DNA investigations in African-derived quilombo populations of the Ribeira River Valley - São Paulo
O Vale do Ribeira é uma área que ocupa cerca de 10% da região sul do estado de São Paulo e abriga pelo menos 30 remanescentes de quilombos. Dessas, 24 já foram oficialmente reconhecidos ou estão em fase de reconhecimento. Com a finalidade de contribuir para o conhecimento da estrutura populacional e da história de formação dessas comunidades afro-de

15. Genetic susceptibility and other risk factors associated to overweight and obesity in african-derived populations from the Ribeira River Valley - São Paulo / Susceptibilidade genética e outros fatores de risco associados ao sobrepeso e à obesidade em populações afro-descendentes do Vale do Ribeira-SP
Obesity, which is determined by multifactorial inheritance, is currently one of the most important issues concerning public health all over the world. Studies on the association of polymorphisms in genes with a possible role in the susceptibility to obesity have been conducted in different populations in the world, in order to elucidate the genetic basis tha

16. Impacto da miscigenaÃÃo na aplicaÃÃo do HapMap para a populaÃÃo brasileira avaliados nos genes PTPN22 e VDR
The PTPN22 and VDR genes are commonly associated to several autoimmune diseases and complex phenotypes related to bone metabolism. The association of some of those polymorphisms are ethnic-specific, and therefore, admixture population studies must be conditionally evaluated to these factors. The Brazilian population is considered the most heterogeneous in th

17. Análise da dispersão de larvas de lagostas no Atlântico tropical a partir de correntes geotróficas superficiais derivadas por satélites / Use of geostrophic currents derived from radar altimeter to study lobster larvae dispersion in the tropical atlantic
Three species of spiny lobster are harvested along the Brazilian coast (Panulirus argus, P. laevicauda and P. echinatus). The annual revenue amounts 50 to 60 million US dollars. These species have a relatively long planktonic larval phase (about one year), that enables the mean ocean currents to transport the larvae over long distances away from the original

18. Prevalence of the A1555G (12S rRNA) and tRNA Ser(UCN) mitochondrial mutations in hearing-impaired Brazilian patients
Mitochondrial mutations are responsible for at least 1% of the cases of hereditary deafness, but the contribution of each mutation has not yet been defined in African-derived or native American genetic backgrounds. A total of 203 unselected hearing-impaired patients were screened for the presence of the mitochondrial mutation A1555G in the 12S rRNA gene and

19. VestÃgios materiais nos enterramentos na antiga Sà de Salvador : postura das instituiÃÃes religiosas africanas frente à igreja catÃlica em Salvador no perÃodo escravista / Material traces in the burials in the old CathedralL of Salvador: Posture of the religious African institutions in relation to the catholic church in Salvador during the slavery time
The present work focused on studying the human burials in the archaeological site, "Old Cathedral", in Salvador, in Bahia, along with necklaces of beads related to the religious cultures of African origin. The archaeological context in which these traces were found brought up, after analysis, the hypothesis of ritual practices derived from religious systems

21. Tectonic evolution of the Maranco-Poço Redondo Domain : records of the Cariris Velhos and Brasiliano orogenesis on the Sergipano belt, NE Brazil / Evolução tectonica do dominio Maranco-Poço Redondo : registro das orogeneses Cariris Velhos e Brasiliana na Faixa Sergipana, NE do Brasil
This Thesis aims to advance in the geological knowledge of the Sergipano Belt, by studying the tectonic evolution for two within seven lithotectonic domains: the Marancó -Poço Redondo Domain. To reach the objective a detailed field work, that used four geological maps (1:100.000) from the Carira Project (PLGB, DNPM-CPRM, 1988) as base maps and a Landsat im

22. Ribeiro's typology, genomes, and Spanish colonialism, as viewed from Gran Canaria and Colombia
Four biallelic and six multiallelic Y-chromosome polymorphisms were investigated in 59 Gran Canarian, 60 North African Berber and 46 Spanish subjects. These new data were merged with equivalent literature information to obtain the parental Y-chrosomomal contribution in Gran Canarians, Colombians, and Venezuelans. The results were then compared, for Gran Cana

23. Allele frequency distributions of six hypervariable loci (D1S80, APOB, D4S43, vW1, F13A and DYS19) in two African-Brazilian communities from the Amazon region
The allele frequency distributions of three VNTR (D1S80, APOB and D4S43) and three STR (vW1, F13A1 and DYS19) loci were investigated in two Afro-Brazilian populations from the Amazon: Curiau and Pacoval. Exact tests for population differentiation revealed significant differences in allele frequency between populations only for the D1S80 and APOB loci. A stat

24. Presence of the RHD pseudogene and the hybrid RHD-CE-Ds gene in Brazilians with the D-negative phenotype
The molecular basis for RHD pseudogene or RHDpsi is a 37-bp insertion in exon 4 of RHD. This insertion, found in two-thirds of D-negative Africans, appears to introduce a stop codon at position 210. The hybrid RHD-CE-Ds, where the 3' end of exon 3 and exons 4 to 8 are derived from RHCE, is associated with the VS+V- phenotype, and leads to a D-negative phenot
