Abstract Objectives: analyze neonatal mortality causes, highlighting the pteventable ones from 2008 to 2017, in Espírito Santo State and health regions. Methods: ecological study of temporal series on neonatal mortality using data from Mortality Information System and from Live Birth Information System. The death causes were classified based on the List of Avoidable Causes of Deaths due to Interventions of the Brazilian Health System. The temporal tendency was analyzed using linear regression. Results: the neonatal mortality rate reduced, approximately 5%, with a reduction of almost 27% in the late neonatal component. Approximately, 70% of neonatal deaths were preventable, with a higher frequency of reducible causes by adequate care at pregnancy, childbirth and to the newborn. The reduction was significant for adequate care for pregnant women in Espírito Santo and in Metropolitan Region and due to adequate care to the newborn in the South Region. Conclusions: the main causes of neonatal deaths were due inadequate care for women during pregnancy, at childbirth and to the newborn, despite the reduction in neonatal mortality over the past 10 years. This study may contribute to the planning of health policies to improve care for pregnant women, parturient and to the newborn.

This is an ecological and time-series study using secondary data on perinatal mortality and its components from 2008 to 2017 in Espírito Santo, Brazil. The data were collected from the Mortality Information System (SIM) and Live Births Information System (SINASC) of the Unified Health System Informatics Department (DATASUS) in June 2019. The perinatal mortality rate (×1000 total births) was calculated. Time series were constructed from the perinatal mortality rate for the regions and Espírito Santo. To analyze the trend, the Prais–Winsten model was used. From 2008 to 2017 there were 8132 perinatal deaths (4939 fetal and 3193 early neonatal) out of a total of 542,802 births, a perinatal mortality rate of 15.0/1000 total births. The fetal/early neonatal ratio was 1.5:1, with a strong positive correlation early neonatal mortality rate, perinatal mortality rate, r (9) = 0.8893, with a significance level of p = 0.000574. The presence of differences in trends by health region was observed. Risk factors that stood out were as follows: mother’s age ranging between 10 and 19 or 40 and 49 years old, with no education, a gestational age between 22 and 36 weeks, triple and double pregnancy, and a birth weight below 2499 g. Among the causes of death, 49.70% of deaths were concentrated in category of the tenth edition of the International Classification of Diseases, fetuses and newborns affected by maternal factors and complications of pregnancy, labor, and delivery (P00–P04), and 11.03% were in the category of intrauterine hypoxia and birth asphyxia (P20–P21), both related to proper care during pregnancy and childbirth. We observed a slow reduction in the perinatal mortality rate in the state of Espírito Santo from 2008 to 2017.

Abstract The objective of this study was to provide the first report of resistance of Haemonchus contortus to monepantel in sheep in Espírito Santo. The study was conducted in a property with history of monepantel use since 2014 and register of low efficacy in studies conducted over the past few years with fecal egg count reduction test. Lambs born on the property (males and females aged approximately 100 days) were selected and after eggs per gram of feces (EPG) analysis on fecal samples, these were divided into two groups: a group treated with monepantel (2.5 mg / Kg) and a control group without anthelmintic treatment. Seven days later, the animals were euthanized to recover parasites from the gastrointestinal tract. The efficacy of the treatment was 61.35% against H. contortus, thus proving that anthelmintic resistance to monepantel was present.

Abstract Sixty-two fecal samples of capybara (Hydrochoerus hydrochaeris) living in eight conservation units (CUs) across the state of Espírito Santo, southeastern Brazil, were assessed for the presence of eggs of liver flukes via sedimentation. Fasciola hepatica eggs were found in 37.1% (23/62) of the samples. Positive samples were found in six CUs (75%), three CUs located in the southern region of the state and three others in the metropolitan region of the capital city of Vitória. Identification of Fasciola hepatica eggs collected from capybara fecal samples were based on morphology, and confirmed using molecular methods. Our results suggest that capybaras may serve as a wild reservoir host for F. hepatica, possibly contributing to the epidemiology and geographic range expansion of this zoonotic parasite across its vast range of distribution in South America.

Neonatal deaths account for more than 60% of infant deaths and are a major concern in Brazil. The reduction of the occurrence of these events appears to be more challenging than post-neonatal deaths, as such a reduction depends more on factors related to the pregnancy and childbirth than sanitary and health conditions. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the influence of maternal factors (schooling, marital status, and age) on the risk of neonatal mortality in Brazil between 2006 and 2016. Data were collected from the Brazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics as well as two information systems of the public health-care system: Mortality Information System and Live Birth Information System. The total valid sample size was 28,362,359 children. Visualization and classification methods were performed. The results revealed a considerably higher risk of neonatal deaths when the mothers were unmarried, had a low level of schooling, and were outside the 20-34-year-old age group. Different demographic profiles in Brazil exert an influence on neonatal health. The identification of the risk factors of neonatal mortality can assist in ensuring pregnancy, delivery, and a neonatal period of greater quality.

Natural Infrastructure, that is, forests and other forms of native vegetation, can serve as among the most important strategies for nature-based solutions for water resource management. Such infrastructure enhances the performance and resilience of conventional structures, rehabilitating the landscape to provide more regular and better-quality water to springs. This report demonstrates how forest restoration of critically degraded areas in the Jucu and Santa Maria da Vitória watersheds could improve the operational performance of the water reservoir and treatment for the Metropolitan Region of Vitória. It indicates areas with the highest cost-effectiveness for the implementation of natural infrastructure, confirms the economic feasibility of investment in natural infrastructure, and offers recommendations on how to strengthen forest restoration programs and initiatives now underway in the State of Espírito Santo.

O objetivo desta pesquisa foi delimitar zonas agroclimáticas homogêneas propícias ao cultivo da cultura do eucalipto. A área estudada abrange do extremo sul da Bahia à região central-serrana do Espírito Santo. A partir de dados de temperatura e pluviosidade de 64 estações meteorológicas, foi calculado o balanço hídrico sequencial decendial, para estimativa da evapotranspiração potencial (ETP), evapotranspiração real (ETR), índice de satisfação de necessidade por água (ISNA = ETR/ETP) e índice de satisfação por necessidade de água com base em análise frequencial de ocorrência de valores superiores a 0,65 (ISNA65). Por espacialização, foram gerados mapas das médias anuais dessas variáveis e dos períodos seco e chuvoso da área de estudo, a partir da seleção dos interpoladores de maior capacidade preditiva, eleitos por validação cruzada. O zoneamento foi elaborado utilizando-se análise de agrupamento, a partir das variáveis ISNA65, ETR do período seco e temperatura média anual. A zona litorânea apresentou as melhores condições agroclimáticas, com os maiores valores médios de ISNA65 (67,8%) e de ETR (391 mm), e a região oeste do Espírito Santo apresentou as piores condições agroclimáticas.Palavras-chave:   Zoneamento agroclimático; análise de agrupamento; sistema de informações geográficas; krigagem. AbstractDelimitation of agroclimatic microregions and its relationships with the productive potential of eucalyptus culture. The objective of this research was to delimit agroclimatic favorable zones to the cultivation of eucalyptus. The study area encloses the extreme south of Bahia State to the Espirito Santo`s central-mountainous, Brazil. Using data from 64 weather stations and based on temperature and pluviometric data, water balance was calculated, in order to estimate the variables potential evapotranspiration (ETP), actual evapotranspiration (ETR), crop water requirement index (ISNA = ETR/ETP) and crop water requirement index based on analysis of the frequency of highest values to 0,65 (ISNA65). Spatial maps were generated by the annual averages of these variables for the dry and rainy periods of the study area from the selection of interpolation of higher predictive capacity, elected by cross-validation. The agroclimatic zoning was elaborated using cluster analysis, based on the variables: ISNA65 and ETR of the dry period and annual temperature. The littoral zone wich are the best agroclimatic conditions during the dry period and is characterized by high values of ISNA65 (67,8%) and ETR (391) and the west region of Espirito Santo, showed the worst agroclimatic conditions.Keywords: Agroclimatic zoning; cluster analysis; geographic information system; kriging.
