    Abstract: Mammals are threatened worldwide, with ~26% of all species being included in the IUCN threatened categories. This overall pattern is primarily associated with habitat loss or degradation, and human persecution for terrestrial mammals, and pollution, open net fishing, climate change, and prey depletion for marine mammals. Mammals play a key role in maintaining ecosystems functionality and resilience, and therefore information on their distribution is crucial to delineate and support conservation actions. MAMMALS IN PORTUGAL is a publicly available data set compiling unpublished georeferenced occurrence records of 92 terrestrial, volant, and marine mammals in mainland Portugal and archipelagos of the Azores and Madeira that includes 105,026 data entries between 1873 and 2021 (72% of the data occurring in 2000 and 2021). The methods used to collect the data were: live observations/captures (43%), sign surveys (35%), camera trapping (16%), bioacoustics surveys (4%) and radiotracking, and inquiries that represent less than 1% of the records. The data set includes 13 types of records: (1) burrows | soil mounds | tunnel, (2) capture, (3) colony, (4) dead animal | hair | skulls | jaws, (5) genetic confirmation, (6) inquiries, (7) observation of live animal (8), observation in shelters, (9) photo trapping | video, (10) predators diet | pellets | pine cones/nuts, (11) scat | track | ditch, (12) telemetry and (13) vocalization | echolocation. The spatial uncertainty of most records ranges between 0 and 100 m (76%). Rodentia ( n  =31,573) has the highest number of records followed by Chiroptera ( n  = 18,857), Carnivora ( n  = 18,594), Lagomorpha ( n  = 17,496), Cetartiodactyla ( n  = 11,568) and Eulipotyphla ( n  = 7008). The data set includes records of species classified by the IUCN as threatened (e.g., Oryctolagus cuniculus [ n  = 12,159], Monachus monachus [ n  = 1,512], and Lynx pardinus [ n  = 197]). We believe that th is data set may stimulate the publication of other European countries data sets that would certainly contribute to ecology and conservation‐related research, and therefore assisting on the development of more accurate and tailored conservation management strategies for each species. There are no copyright restrictions; please cite this data paper when the data are used in publications.

    Abstract: Epiphytes are hyper‐diverse and one of the frequently undervalued life forms in plant surveys and biodiversity inventories. Epiphytes of the Atlantic Forest, one of the most endangered ecosystems in the world, have high endemism and radiated recently in the Pliocene. We aimed to (1) compile an extensive Atlantic Forest data set on vascular, non‐vascular plants (including hemiepiphytes), and lichen epiphyte species occurrence and abundance; (2) describe the epiphyte distribution in the Atlantic Forest, in order to indicate future sampling efforts. Our work presents the first epiphyte data set with information on abundance and occurrence of epiphyte phorophyte species. All data compiled here come from three main sources provided by the authors: published sources (comprising peer‐reviewed articles, books, and theses), unpublished data, and herbarium data. We compiled a data set composed of 2,095 species, from 89,270 holo/hemiepiphyte records, in the Atlantic Forest of Brazil, Argentina, Paraguay, and Uruguay, recorded from 1824 to early 2018. Most of the records were from qualitative data (occurrence only, 88%), well distributed throughout the Atlantic Forest. For quantitative records, the most common sampling method was individual trees (71%), followed by plot sampling (19%), and transect sampling (10%). Angiosperms (81%) were the most frequently registered group, and Bromeliaceae and Orchidaceae were the families with the greatest number of records (27,272 and 21,945, respectively). Ferns and Lycophytes presented fewer records than Angiosperms, and Polypodiaceae were the most recorded family, and more concentrated in the Southern and Southeastern regions. Data on non‐vascular plants and lichens were scarce, with a few disjunct records concentrated in the Northeastern region of the Atlantic Forest. For all non‐vascular plant records, Lejeuneaceae, a family of liverworts, was the most recorded family. We hope that our effort to organize scattered epiphyte data help advance the knowledge of epiphyte ecology, as well as our understanding of macroecological and biogeographical patterns in the Atlantic Forest. No copyright restrictions are associated with the data set. Please cite this Ecology Data Paper if the data are used in publication and teaching events.

    Abstract: Resumo O bioma das Florestas e Arbustais Tropicais Sazonalmente Secos tem na Caatinga sua mais extensa área, possuindo elevada diversidade florística e ambiental. Caracterizamos a composição florística e a fisionomia da vegetação no Refúgio da Vida Silvestre Pedra da Andorinha (RPA), área de conservação no noroeste do estado do Ceará, Brasil. Realizamos coletas botânicas entre março de 2015 e maio de 2021, aplicando os métodos tradicionais de coleta e herborização. Todo o material foi depositado no herbário HUVA. A fitossociologia foi feita em cinco parcelas de 50 x 50 m (1,25 ha), onde os indivíduos lenhosos com diâmetro ao nível do solo ³ a 3 cm foram inventariados. Avaliamos os parâmetros fitossociológicos de estrutura da vegetação e sua diversidade florística. Identificamos 266 plantas vasculares, distribuídas em 185 gêneros e 67 famílias, incluindo uma pteridófita (Marsilea deflexa - Marsileaceae). A família Fabaceae teve a maior riqueza (38 spp.), enquanto Ipomoea foi o gênero mais rico (9 spp.). O componente herbáceo foi o componente mais rico (43,6%), com uma predominância de herbáceas terófitas (57,5% de todas as plantas herbáceas). O estudo fitossociológico amostrou 1.988 indivíduos, distribuídos em 24 espécies de 13 famílias. As espécies com maior valor de importância foram Cordia oncocalyx e Croton blanchetianus, responsáveis por 63% dos indivíduos amostrados. Classificamos a área como Caatinga sensu stricto e em vegetação rupícola de inselbergues e afloramentos rochosos, chamando a atenção para a elevada riqueza de espécies no componente herbáceo, que, como em outras áreas de Caatinga sensu stricto, supera a riqueza de espécies lenhosas.

    Abstract: Data on airborne fine particle (PM 2.5 ) emissions and concentrations in cities are valuable for traffic and air quality managers, urban planners, health practitioners, researchers, and ultimately for legislators and decision makers. Emissions and ambient concentrations of PM 2.5 and black carbon (BC) were assessed in the city of Curitiba, southern Brazil. The methodology combined a month-long monitoring campaign with both fixed and mobile instruments, development of emission inventories, and dispersion model simulations on different scales. The mean urban background PM 2.5 concentrations during the campaign were 7.3 μg m −3 in Curitiba city center, but three- to fourfold higher (25.3 μg m -3 ) in a residential area on the city’s outskirts, indicating the presence of local sources, possibly linked to biomass combustion. BC concentrations seemed to be more uniformly distributed over the city, with mean urban background concentrations around 2 μg m −3 , half of which due to local traffic emissions. Higher mean BC concentrations (3–5 μg m -3 ) were found along busy roads. The dispersion modeling also showed high PM 2.5 and BC concentrations along the heavily transited ring road. However, the lack of in situ data over these peripheral areas prevented the verification of the model output. The vehicular emission factors for PM 2.5 and BC from the literature were found not to be suitable for Curitiba’s fleet and needed to be adjusted. The integrated approach of this study can be implemented in other cities, as long as an open data policy and a close cooperation among regional, municipal authorities and academia can be achieved.

    Abstract: Species of Piperaceae are known by biological properties, including antiparasitic such as leishmanicidal, antimalarial and in the treatment of schistosomiasis. The aim of this work was to evaluate the antileishmania activity, cytotoxic effect, and macrophage activation patterns of the methanol (MeOH), hexane (HEX), dichloromethane (DCM) and ethyl acetate (EtOAc) extract fractions from the leaves of Piper cabralanum C.DC. The MeOH, HEX and DCM fractions inhibited Leishmanina amazonensis promastigote-like forms growth with a half maximal inhibitory concentration (IC 50 ) of 144.54, 59.92, and 64.87 μg/mL, respectively. The EtOAc fraction did not show any relevant activity. The half maximal cytotoxic concentration (CC 50 ) for macrophages were determined as 370.70, 83.99, 113.68 and 607 μg/mL for the MeOH, HEX and DCM fractions, respectively. The macrophage infectivity was concentration-dependent, especially for HEX and DCM. MeOH, HEX and DCM fractions showed activity against L. amazonensis with low cytotoxicity to murine macrophages and lowering infectivity by the parasite. Our results provide support for in vivo studies related to a potential application of P. cabralanum extract and fractions as a promising natural resource in the treatment of leishmaniasis.

    Abstract: Os coronavírus, um gênero da Família Coronaviridae, são conhecidos por serem vírus envelopados com genoma de RNA grande de cadeia positiva. Entre as principais vias de transmissão do coronavírus estão: a direta, por meio de tosse, espirro e perdigotos e transmissão por contato com mucosa oral, nasal e dos olhos. Apesar de que a presença de sintomas neurológicos nos primeiros pacientes infectados pelo COVID-19 tenha sido de baixa escala, nos últimos dias, os relatos de casos neurológicos estão mais frequentes, além daqueles sobre consequências da pandemia a médio e longo prazo no Sistema Nervoso Central (SNC) e/ou dos impactos sobre as doenças neurológicas. Com isso, a presente pesquisa teve como objetivo descrever as complicações neurológicas em pacientes infectados pelo novo coronavírus. Trata-se de uma revisão integrativa da literatura, de caráter exploratório, com abordagem qualitativa. Para a realização desse estudo foram consultadas as bases de dados: MEDLINE, Google Acadêmico e SCIELO. Utilizou-se os descritores de forma associada: Complicações Neurológicas, Neurologia, COVID-19 e Infecções por Coronavírus. Considerou-se, inicialmente, artigos que abordassem a temática proposta. Para compor a fundamentação da discussão deste estudo, foram recuperados pelas estratégias de busca um total de 9 artigos, que foram analisados e discutidos integralmente. Os sintomas neurológicos foram enquadrados em três categorias: sintomas ou doenças do Sistema Nervoso Central, como dor de cabeça, tontura, prejuízo da consciência, ataxia, doença cerebrovascular aguda e epilepsia, sintomas do Sistema Nervoso Periférico, como hipogeusia, hiposmia, hipopsia e neuralgia, e sintomas musculoesqueléticos.

    Abstract: Ileus is common after colorectal surgery and is associated with an increased risk of postoperative complications. Identifying features of normal bowel recovery and the appropriateness for hospital discharge is challenging. This study explored the safety of hospital discharge before the return of bowel function. Methods A prospective, multicentre cohort study was undertaken across an international collaborative network. Adult patients undergoing elective colorectal resection between January and April 2018 were included. The main outcome of interest was readmission to hospital within 30 days of surgery. The impact of discharge timing according to the return of bowel function was explored using multivariable regression analysis. Other outcomes were postoperative complications within 30 days of surgery, measured using the Clavien–Dindo classification system. Results A total of 3288 patients were included in the analysis, of whom 301 (9·2 per cent) were discharged before the return of bowel function. The median duration of hospital stay for patients discharged before and after return of bowel function was 5 (i.q.r. 4–7) and 7 (6–8) days respectively (P & lt; 0·001). There were no significant differences in rates of readmission between these groups (6·6 versus 8·0 per cent; P = 0·499), and this remained the case after multivariable adjustment for baseline differences (odds ratio 0·90, 95 per cent c.i. 0·55 to 1·46; P = 0·659). Rates of postoperative complications were also similar in those discharged before versus after return of bowel function (minor: 34·7 versus 39·5 per cent; major 3·3 versus 3·4 per cent; P = 0·110). Conclusion Discharge before return of bowel function after elective colorectal surgery appears to be safe in appropriately selected patients.

    Abstract: The northeast Brazilian state of Alagoas harbors a rather diverse, and one of the world’s most threatened, avifauna. However, the knowledge about its avifauna is currently scattered on several publications and the state’s birds have never been comprehensively assembled into a checklist. To fill this shortfall, we present here the first critical review of all available bird records for the state of Alagoas. We present a list of 520 bird species recorded in the state, of which 503 are supported by documentary evidence. We also comment on the distribution, migratory movements, taxonomy and conservation of the region’s avifauna and correct previous misidentified or invalid records for the state.

    Abstract: Os Colegiados Territoriais (CODETERs), são importantes espaços políticos de decisão participativa das organizações sociais vinculadas ao processo desenvolvimento rural sustentável do Brasil. Nesse espaço pode-se realizar discussão, planejamento, controle social, deliberação de ações do território relacionado à infraestrutura, educação, cultura, saúde, produção agrícola e animal, contribuindo com o desenvolvimento sustentável da região. Objetivando analisar a participação social do Colegiado Territorial Sertão São Francisco-PE (COSERFRAN-PE) e a contribuição deste território no desenvolvimento rural da região, foi realizada uma pesquisa sobre gestão social/participativa dos CODETERs, dando-se ênfase na pesquisa documental da gestão social do COSERFRAN-PE. Com base nesta análise de dados, constatou-se uma pequena representação, no COSERFRAN-PE, da sociedade civil organizada por município, como também uma baixa representação e participação do poder público nas plenárias. Essa baixa representatividade impacta, negativamente, na tomada de decisões e deliberações, dificultando uma plena gestão participativa e desenvolvimento significativo do Território.

    Abstract: Ileus is common after elective colorectal surgery, and is associated with increased adverse events and prolonged hospital stay. The aim was to assess the role of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) for reducing ileus after surgery. Methods A prospective multicentre cohort study was delivered by an international, student- and trainee-led collaborative group. Adult patients undergoing elective colorectal resection between January and April 2018 were included. The primary outcome was time to gastrointestinal recovery, measured using a composite measure of bowel function and tolerance to oral intake. The impact of NSAIDs was explored using Cox regression analyses, including the results of a centre-specific survey of compliance to enhanced recovery principles. Secondary safety outcomes included anastomotic leak rate and acute kidney injury. Results A total of 4164 patients were included, with a median age of 68 (i.q.r. 57–75) years (54·9 per cent men). Some 1153 (27·7 per cent) received NSAIDs on postoperative days 1–3, of whom 1061 (92·0 per cent) received non-selective cyclo-oxygenase inhibitors. After adjustment for baseline differences, the mean time to gastrointestinal recovery did not differ significantly between patients who received NSAIDs and those who did not (4·6 versus 4·8 days; hazard ratio 1·04, 95 per cent c.i. 0·96 to 1·12; P = 0·360). There were no significant differences in anastomotic leak rate (5·4 versus 4·6 per cent; P = 0·349) or acute kidney injury (14·3 versus 13·8 per cent; P = 0·666) between the groups. Significantly fewer patients receiving NSAIDs required strong opioid analgesia (35·3 versus 56·7 per cent; P & lt; 0·001). Conclusion NSAIDs did not reduce the time for gastrointestinal recovery after colorectal surgery, but they were safe and associated with reduced postoperative opioid requirement.
