Item Acesso aberto (Open Access) Análise taxonômica e molecular de Cestoda nematotaeniidae parasito de intestino delgado de Rhinella marina (Linnaeus, 1758) (Amphibia: Bufonidae) de Belém-Pa(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2010-07-02) MELO, Francisco Tiago de Vasconcelos; SANTOS, Jeannie Nascimento dos; http://lattes.cnpq.br/4543897195525368The amphibians of the species Rhinella marina known also as Giant Toad and have cosmopolitan distribution. Posses nocturnes habits, due of variety of feeding they can live in different habitats. Then, they can have many kinds of helminthes parasites. Among the helminthes, the cestodas are the target of study of this work. The members of Nematotaeniidae Family are commonly found in small intestine of repitilian and amphibians. The frequent auto-infestation would justify the high taxes of parasitism in one host. The present study has the objective to identify and to characterize the Cestoda of Rhinella marina from Belém-PA. Twenty hosts were captured in homes of the metropolitan area of Belém-PA and, after necropsy the Cestoda were isolated of intestine, and some specimens were fixed in A.F.A (Glacial Acid Acetic 2%, Formaldehyde 3% and 95 % of Etanol 70º GL), and some worms fixed in 2% Glutaraldehyde in Cacodilate buffer 0,1m P.h 7,4, to process in different techniques. One part of the samples was dehydrated in Etanol Series, and stained with Carmim®, and clarified with Metil Salicilate®. Some specimens were dehydrated and included in Paraffin for acomplishement of longitudinal and tranverse cuts. The worms fixed in Glutaraldehyde were dehydrated and included in Historesin®. Some Cestoda were processed for Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM). An indentification was accomplished throught drawings in Olympus BX 41 microscope equipped with camera lucida, pictures were taken in a MEDILUX microscope, with image captures system and in MEV JEOL 5310. Histological sections were photographed and 3D reconstruction was made in RECONSTRUCTTM software. The cestoid possess a cylindrical body, filiform and with difficult segmentation, except in the final portion of the strobila. Escolex with four suckers without hooks or apical organ, the pregnant proglotis presents two piriform capsules, funded in the basis and containing one or more eggs. The observations in SEM and light microscopy of the cestoda founded in small intestine of R.marina from Belém-PA, we observed that these Cestoda belong to Nematotaeniidae Family, meanwhile the other morphologic characters observed did not permit us to classify this helminth in any Gender of this Family.Item Acesso aberto (Open Access) Avaliação dos fatores de risco associados à transmissão do HTLV-1 e do HTLV-2, em doadores de sangue, na cidade de Belém do Pará(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2006-04-10) LOPES, Bruna Pedroso Tamegão; LEMOS, José Alexandre Rodrigues de; http://lattes.cnpq.br/0820294977759092In order to define the epidemiological profile of the Human T-cell Lymphotropic Virus (HTLV-1 and HTLV-2) among inapt blood donors population, at the HEMOPA Foundation, in Belém, state of Pará, we analyzed 113 epidemiological forms, related with risk factors associated with these retrovirus transmission, among carriers and noncarriers of HTLV. We observed that 76% (n=50) of the inapt blood donors were infected by HTLV-1 and 24% (n=16) by HTLV-2; 62% (n=70) of the carriers were male and 38% (n=43) were female, with a tendency of infection in this gender (p=0,007). The risk factors which exhibited significant results were: have received blood transfusion (p=0,0003), more specifically to HTLV-2 (p=0,02); have been breastfeeding from non-mother (p=0,006), more specifically to HTLV-1 (p=0,04); have been submitted to surgery (p=0,01), discriminately to HTLV-1 (p=0,03) and HTLV-2 (p=0,04); share blades/shavers (p=0,02), more specifically to HTLV-1 (p=0,02); do not use condoms during sexual intercourse (p=0,0003), discriminately to HTLV-1 (p=0,001) and HTLV-2 (p=0,002). Despite of the diverse stages existing in the process of selection of blood donors, which the main objective is to eliminate potentials candidates carrying transmissible blood diseases, in special of chronic and asymptomatic course, exist bias that disable an exempt process of fails.Item Acesso aberto (Open Access) Situação imunológica dos profissionais de saúde de um laboratório de pesquisa em relação ao vírus da hepatite B(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2009-08-27) OLIVEIRA, Candida Maria Abrahão de; NUNES, Márcio Roberto Teixeira; http://lattes.cnpq.br/0299116892743368Hepatitis B is a serious problem of public health, in particular for health-workers, who have an increased risk of acquiring this disease, through contact with patients or infected materials, following accidents and, frequently, in the lack of preventive measures. The object of this study was to determine the prevalence by serologic markers of infection with hepatitis B virus, among workers of a research institute, by way of a descriptive and epidemiological study. 528 samples of blood were collected, during January - April, 2008, in order to analyse serologic markers of hepatitis B by immunnoenzimatic techniques, which detected a total prevalence of 39,7% for some marker of HBV, with 0,4% by HBsAg+; 8% by anti-HBc+/HBs+; 2,5% isolated anti-HBc+ and 28,8% by isolated anti-HBs+. Among the individuals interviewed 31,6%, they were vaccinated against hepatitis B, having among than 38,9% individuals with no response to the vaccine and 80,8% susceptible, made up of non-vaccinated individuals, those not responding to vaccination. These results indicate showed the necessity to carry out Regulation 32, of the Ministry of Work and Employment, protects the health-worker.Item Acesso aberto (Open Access) Soroprevalência e caracterização molecular do Vírus da imunodeficiência humana (HIV) e do Vírus linfotrópico de células T humanas (HTLV) em mulheres profissionais do sexo do Estado do Pará, Brasil(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2007-08-03) SOUSA, Ronaldo Lopes de; MACHADO, Luiz Fernando Almeida; http://lattes.cnpq.br/8099461017092882The Women’s Professional of the Sex (WPS) constitute a vulnerable population to the acquisition of sexually transmissible illnesses (STI) in virtue of the type of activity that they play. The present work had as objective to describe the serumprevalency of the infection and the molecular characterization of the HIV and the HTLV of WPS of the State of Pará, Brazil. Blood sample’s of 339 WPS were collected, being 105 proceeding from the city of Barcarena, 31 of the city of Augusto Correa, 98 of the city of Bragança and 105 of the city of Belém, in the period of April of 2005 the August of 2006. All the plasma samples had been tested for the presence of antibodies anti-HTLV-1/2 and anti-HIV-1/2, by means of the use of a immune enzimatic assay. The prevalence of the HIV-1 and the HTLV-1 in the studied population was of 2,36% and 1,77%, respectively. The amplification of the gene pro of the HIV-1 disclosed subtypes B and F, whereas the samples of HTLV, had been classified as HTLV-1 of the Cosmopolita subtype of the Transcontinental sub-group. It had a significant association of the infection for the HIV-1 with the age band, the number of partners per week and with the capricious use of condoms. However, the infection for the HTLV-1 alone showed significant association in relation to the capricious use of condom. The sexual relation was the most likely way of acquisition of the infection for the two viral agents, considering that the report of use of injective drugs was rare. Being thus, the WPS need bigger attention of the public agencies of health, specially in relation to the prevention and monitoring of transmissible agents by sexual pathways, as these can be important in the acquisition and dissemination of these agents.
