1. Mycoplasmosis in cattle dairy calves: underlying factors for the occurrence and manifestation of the syndrome granular vaginitis / Micoplasmose em bovinos de aptidão leiteira: fatores predisponentes para a ocorrência e manifestação da síndrome vulvovaginite granular
The reduction of reproductive rates is measured by the reduction in the number of calves born that immediately reflected in the reduction of milk production and profitability of commercial property. The effect is the increased administrative costs of maintenance with dry cows, higher rates of rejection and a higher number of doses of semen for conception. Pa

2. Desenvolvimento e avaliação de modelo computacional para geração de alertas a partir de notificações de casos de meningite meningocócica / Development and evaluation of a computing model of alerts from meningococcal meningitis notification cases
INTRODUÇÃO: este trabalho apresenta a arquitetura de um sistema de emissão de alertas para surtos e epidemias em tempo real, baseado em notificações eletrônicas da meningite, e discute os resultados dos testes e simulações realizados. MÉTODOS: esse sistema foi desenvolvido em quatro etapas: Concepção, Análise, Construção e Teste/Simulações. A

3. Fatores de risco associados ao sobrepeso e obesidade em escolares de Mutuípe - Bahia
Introduction: The obesity is a chronic and multifarious illness that results of the fat tissue accumulation, local or in all body, in response to the positive difference between consumption and energy consume. The overweight, event that precedes the obesity, and the obesity comes significantly occurring in children of the whole world and not only in adults,

4. Modos de enfrentamento de pessoas com insuficiência renal crônica terminal em tratamento hemodialítico / Ways of coping of the people with terminal chronic renal failure in hemodialysis treatment.
Terminal Chronic Renal Failure (TCRF) is a non-transmissible chronic disease and one problem of public health, constituting one of the main causes of death and disabilities in the world. The chronic condition of health is a stressful situation and source of new stressors, that are cope in accordance with the meaning that has for the involved ones. The ways o

5. Efeito de diferentes concentrações de fluor e diferentes niveis de desafio cariogenico no desenvolvimento de carie dental em ratos dessalivados
Dental caries is an infectious, transmissible, and multifactorial disease, that continues to affect the vast majority of people and the presence of carbohydrates, mainly sucrose, is an important factor in its ocurrence. Although, its incidence has been efficiently controlled in some segments of the population by the use of fluoride, a cariostatic agent. Neve

6. Biological control of chestnut blight: an example of virus-mediated attenuation of fungal pathogenesis.
Environmental concerns have focused attention on natural forms of disease control as potentially safe and effective alternatives to chemical pesticides. This has led to increased efforts to develop control strategies that rely on natural predators and parasites or that involve genetically engineered microbial pest control agents. This review deals with a nat

7. Factors that make an infectious disease outbreak controllable
The aim of this study is to identify general properties of emerging infectious agents that determine the likely success of two simple public health measures in controlling outbreaks, namely (i) isolating symptomatic individuals and (ii) tracing and quarantining their contacts. Because these measures depend on the recognition of specific disease symptoms, we

8. Chronic wasting disease in Canada: Part 1
The purpose of part 1 is to provide an overview of published literature (1980–2002) on chronic wasting disease (CWD) to inform Canadian readers about the disease and to explain Canadian regulatory approaches to the surveillance and control of CWD. Much of the scientific information is drawn from American publications obtained from internet searches in PubM

9. Treatment of Transmissible Spongiform Encephalopathy by Intraventricular Drug Infusion in Animal Models
The therapeutic efficacy of direct drug infusion into the brain, the target organ of transmissible spongiform encephalopathies, was assessed in transgenic mice intracerebrally infected with 263K scrapie agent. Pentosan polysulfate (PPS) gave the most dramatic prolongation of the incubation period, and amphotericin B had intermediate effects, but antimalarial

10. Crohn disease lymph node homogenates produce murine lymphoma in athymic mice.
To study the putative agent(s) related to Crohn disease, we intraperitoneally in injected mesenteric lymph node homogenates from four patients with active Crohn disease into 10-week-old athymic (nu/nu) mice. Control mice (nu/nu) were injected with homogenates of mesenteric lymph nodes from two patients with ulcerative colitis and four patients undergoing ele

11. Retrograde Transport of Transmissible Mink Encephalopathy within Descending Motor Tracts
The spread of the abnormal conformation of the prion protein, PrPSc, within the spinal cord is central to the pathogenesis of transmissible prion diseases, but the mechanism of transport has not been determined. For this report, the route of transport of the HY strain of transmissible mink encephalopathy (TME), a prion disease of mink, in the central nervous

12. Wild-type PrP and a mutant associated with prion disease are subject to retrograde transport and proteasome degradation
The cytoplasm seems to provide an environment that favors conversion of the prion protein (PrP) to a form with the physical characteristics of the PrPSc conformation, which is associated with transmissible spongiform encephalopathies. However, it is not clear whether PrP would ever exist in the cytoplasm under normal circumstances. We report that PrP ac
