In order to evaluate the distribution of dermatophytes in Porto Alegre, the capital of the state of Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil, they were isolated from the skin, hairs and nails samples and retrospectively analyzed from June 1981 to June 1995, in two different institutions in the city of Porto Alegre: (i) the Serviço de Micologia do Instituto de Pesquisas Biológicas Jandyr Maya Faillace, da Secretaria de Saúde e Meio Ambiente do Rio Grande do Sul which attends the low income population (low and middle classes) and, (ii) Laboratório Weinmann, a clinical pathology laboratory which attends predominantly the higher income population (middle and upper classes), both which attend in the metropolitan area of Porto Alegre. The dermatophyte predominance of Trichophyton rubrum was confirmed (55.33%) followed by T. mentagrophytes (21.46%). The data obtained were compared with the existing prevalence data which were collected in the interior of the state over a period of 32 years (1960-1992). T. verrucosum, T. simii, Microsporum persicolor, T. schöenleinii, M. nanum and M. cookei were isolated in the interior and have not been found in the capital so far. On the other side, T. violaceum was, isolated in the capital and has not been found in the interior so far.

Leishmaniosis are zoonoses that present several clinical manifestations in humans and have dogs as their main reservoir in the urban environment. Visceral leishmaniasis (VL) is the most severe form of the parasitosis and has been increasing in Brazil, despite the actions of public health agencies. Until 2002, the State of Rio Grande do Sul (RS) was considered free of human and canine leishmaniasis. The first human case of cutaneous leishmaniasis in RS was recorded in 2003. In 2009, the first autochthonous cases of human VL and canine visceral leishmaniasis (CVL) were confirmed in São Borja, RS, and the occurrence of the insect vector was recorded for the first time in the state. In 2010, the first confirmed case of CVL was reported and seropositive dogs were identified in the city of Porto Alegre, RS. Given the importance of this zoonosis and the difficulties of a reliable diagnosis in dogs, this study aimed to identify epidemiological aspects of CVL in dogs in an area of Porto Alegre where cases of the disease have been reported. A total of 300 blood samples were collected from dogs in this area, which were then tested by the methods of RT-DPP® and ELISA for diagnosis of Leishmania infantum. An epidemiological questionnaire was completed by dog owners, containing aspects related to care of the animals, characteristics of their environment, and their living conditions. We observed that 83% (250/300) of the studied dogs were of mixed breed, 58% (175/300) were female, 78% (238/300) slept outdoors, and 61% (183/300) shared their living quarters with other species. Clinically, we observed that 90% (270/300) of the animals were infested by ectoparasites, 70% (210/300) had dermatopathies, 24% (72/300) presented weight loss and anorexia, and 22% (65/300) had ocular disorders. The results of the two serological tests were 100% concordant for the three seropositive samples (1%), and the remaining 297 (99%) were negative for both tests. We conclude that despite the low prevalence of L. infantum seropositive dogs, conditions in the region are favorable for CVL transmission, creating a risk of VL for the human population in the city of Porto Alegre.

O texto compreende uma discussão sobre o processo de modernização na cidade de Porto Alegre em vários momentos de sua história, articulando as transformações e modificações havidas no espaço urbano com uma paralela segregação social operada e/ou desejada na cidade. São recolhidos vários exemplos para demonstrar a vontade de se construir uma “cidade una”, na qual não se admite o convívio com os indesejados sociais. A combinação modernização/exclusão social, tantas vezes já abordada em diversos estudos da historiografia brasileira, encontra neste artigo mais um exercício de aproximação, a partir do qual pode-se vislumbrar momentos distintos – sem traçar uma linha de continuidade – desta operação específica da modernidade. Abstract The text discusses the process of modernization in the city of Porto Alegre during various moments of its history, debating both transformations and modifications in the city’s urban space along with a social segregation that was either going on or being wished for at that time. Many exemples are given so as to demonstrate the desire to build a “united city” in which those who were socially unwished were not allowed. The combination of modernization with social exclusion, so often discussed in many other studies of Brazilian history, is shown in this article as another approach to the issue of modernization with its distinct moments.

This article analyzed, from the perspective of six graduates of the Course of Pedagogy (FACED / UFRGS), the effects of the obligatory curricular internship and its role in the formation of teaching identities. This qualitative research carried out in 2014 involved listening to the voices of graduates in the period of compulsory curricular traineeship in a municipal public school system located in the city of Porto Alegre (Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil). By means of a focal group, the authors addressed themes of stage and professional identity, concepts developed by Maurice Tardif and Danielle Raymond, António Nóvoa, Selma Garrido Pimenta and Maria Socorro Lima. Drawing on the discursive perspectives of Michel Pêcheux, and highlighting contributions offered by Eni Orlandi, the discourse analysis of the graduates’ speech produced several themes that influenced the formation of the graduates’ educational identities, including teaching as collaborative work, “human teaching”, and experiences of autonomy and transition, and that referred to the obligatory curricular stage as a space for learning, reflection about practice, and the space of praxis. In addition, six trainees perceived their internship as an experience that produced changes in their ways of thinking and becoming teachers. Thus, discursive analysis of internship graduates within the time and spaces of teacher formation may can contribute to other designs for schooling and education, considering the relevance of the dynamic conditions of dialogue at this specific stage.

In 1831, Rufino’s young master, an army cadet, took him to the province of Rio Grande do Sul, where he was sold to a merchant from the capital city of Porto Alegre. When his new master went bankrupt, Rufino was auctioned and bought by the police chief of the province. He worked as a cook at home and probably as a hire-out worker in the streets as well. Rio Grande received scores of slaves imported from Bahia and Rio de Janeiro. By 1819, 30 percent of Porto Alegre’s population were slaves. As the city grew, daily conflicts between slaves and the police and maroon activity became a major problem.

No presente artigo, inicialmente, buscamos conhecer a designação e classificação das escolas no Rio Grande do Sul, entre 1897 e 1942, no intuito de historicizar os conceitos de “público” e “privado”. Em seguida pretendemos compreender como se distribuíram as ações de criação e manutenção de escolas entre órgãos públicos e entidades particulares em Porto Alegre no período. Para tanto, mobilizamos aportes teóricos de Reinhart Koselleck e Pierre Bourdieu e assumimos como fontes documentais a legislação, relatórios oficiais apresentados pelo governo do estado e pela municipalidade, além de publicações memorialísticas de uma instituição de ensino particular. Os resultados indicam uma distribuição de atribuições diversa da que consta na legislação atualmente, tanto no que se refere ao papel das instituições públicas e privadas na oferta de educação no município, quanto no entendimento sobre os modos de atender os interesses públicos e privados no período. Assim, a ação das instituições particulares foi considerada como de interesse público por viabilizar a ampliação do atendimento educacional das elites em níveis de ensino nos quais o Estado não tinha planos de atuar. O atendimento da população pobre nesses níveis foi restrito e dependente, em grande medida, da oferta de bolsas de estudos a partir de critérios que não aparecem explicitados na documentação.  ***In the present article, we initially have sought to know the designation and classification of schools in Rio Grande do Sul, between 1897 and 1942, in order to historicize the concepts of "public" and "private". Next, we have intended to understand how the actions of creation and maintenance of schools were distributed among public agencies and private entities in Porto Alegre in the period. For this purpose, we have mobilized theoretical contributions from Reinhart Koselleck and Pierre Bourdieu, and we have taken as documentary sources the legislation, official reports presented by the state government and by the municipality, memorialistical publications of a private educational institution. The results indicate a diverse distribution of attributions from the one that appears in current legislation, both regarding to the role of public and private institutions in the provision of education in the municipality, as well as to the understanding of ways to meet public and private interests in the period. Thus, the action of private institutions was considered as being of public interest once it has enabled the expansion of the educational services of elites at levels of education in which the State had no plans to act. The offer of schooling for the poor population at these levels was restricted and largely dependent on the offer of scholarships based on criteria that were not explicitly stated in the documentation.

ABSTRACT: Abomasal bloat associated with Sarcina genus bacteria is a rare condition reported in young ruminants. An outbreak characterized by the sudden death of eight lambs from a total of 80 lambs (30 days-old) occurred on a property located in the city of Palmares do Sul in the state of Rio Grande do Sul. Deaths began to occur after the introduction of supplementation into the diet of lambs. At necropsy, the abomasum was distended by gas and had diffusely thickened walls and emphysema. On microscopic examination, the abomasum showed marked diffuse emphysema and multifocal areas of mild superficial necrosis with many coccoid structures measuring approximately 2µm in diameter, arranged in tetrads, compatible with Sarcina genus bacteria. After removing supplementation from the diet, no more deaths occurred. The diagnosis of this case was established by gross and microscopic lesions in addition to the clinical and epidemiological findings. Therefore, it was concluded that it was an outbreak of emphysematous abomasitis by Sarcina genus bacteria in lambs.

AbstractA high frequency of twin births has been observed in Linha São Pedro, a small settlement which belongs to the city of Cândido Godói, located 524 km Northwest from Porto Alegre, Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil, in an ethnically homogeneous population of German descent restricted to a small geographic region. From 1990 to 1994, the proportion of twin births in Linha São Pedro was 10%, significantly higher than the 1.8% rate for the state of Rio Grande do Sul as a whole. Genealogical analysis showed a high recurrence of multiple births within families, as well as a high level of inbreeding in the community. Zygosity data indicated that 9 of the 17 pairs of twins studied (53%) were dizygotic. No external environmental factors were detected that could be influencing the appearance of this characteristic. This preliminary investigation confirmed the presumed existence of a high twinning rate in the community. The high familial recurrence and the high inbreeding rate suggests the presence of genetic twinning factors. Complementary studies of twins that have yet to be evaluated and the search for additional risk factors, as well as linkage studies, should contribute to a further understanding of the biological factors related to twin births in the human species.

Resumo: Este artigo enfoca as memórias, as narrativas e as formas de sociabilidade religiosas de uma rede de moradores da parte de baixo da Ilha da Pintada, localidade lacustre da cidade de Porto Alegre, Rio Grande do Sul, reunidos em torno das práticas e tradições afro-religiosas lideradas por uma família negra. A partir de uma pesquisa etnográfica, focada nos acervos fotográficos desta família, este trabalho busca compreender os conflitos e as táticas desta rede de moradores no enfrentamento cotidiano dos preconceitos raciais. A memória traumática e a tensão permanente entre os moradores da parte de cima e da parte de baixo da ilha inscrevem este território em um jogo conflitual permeado de adesões e evitações a diferentes grupos e espaços na Ilha da Pintada, ora flexíveis, ora determinantes na construção de identidades específicas. Palavras-chave: fotografia, memória, conflito, umbanda, Ilha da Pintada STORIES FROM KEPT IMAGES: NARRATIVES ABOUT NEGRITUDE, CONFLICT AND RELIGIOSITY ON ILHA DA PINTADA, PORTO ALEGRE, RS Abstract: This article focuses on the memories, narratives and forms of religious sociability of a network of inhabitants from Ilha da Pintada, a neighborhood in the city of Porto Alegre-RS, gathered around afro-brazilian practices and traditions. Based on an ethnographic research focused on the photographic collections of this Family, this work seeks to understand the conflicts and tatics of this network of residentes in the daily confrontation of racial prejudices. The traumatic memory and the permanente tension between the inhabitants of the upper and lower part of the neighborhood inscribed this territory in a conflictual game permeated by adhesions and avoidances to diferente groups and spaces in Ilha da Pintada, sometimes flexible, sometimes decisive in the construction of specific identities.Keywords: photography. memory. conflict. umbanda.
