ABSTRACT BACKGROUND: Stroke is a major cause of mortality worldwide. Renal dysfunction is an important risk factor for stroke. Brazilian studies on stroke knowledge are generally population based. Studies stratifying stroke knowledge according to comorbidities are rare. Scientific data are essential to guide the awareness of stroke. OBJECTIVE: To assess stroke knowledge in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) on hemodialysis. DESIGN AND SETTING: Cross-sectional analytical study of patients with CKD on hemodialysis in north-eastern Brazil. METHODS: A self-administered questionnaire survey on stroke awareness was administered to patients with CKD on hemodialysis between April and November 2022. The chi-square test and other descriptive statistics were used. Univariate and multivariate analyses were performed using logistic regression. RESULTS: A total of 197 patients were included in the analysis. The Brazilian acronym for stroke was used by 53.5% of the participants. Less than 10.0% of the sample showed optimal decision-making ability regarding stroke. Of the participants, 29.9% knew at least one risk factor and one symptom; however, this was considered as having below the minimum capacity because they did not know the emergency service call number. In the analysis adjusted for income and education, females (odds ratio [OR], 0.40%; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.20-0.82), older patients (OR, 0.24%; 95% CI, 0.09-0.63) and having at most one comorbidity (OR, 0.48%; 95% CI, 0.23-0.98) were factors for lower levels of knowledge or ideal decision-making capacity against stroke. CONCLUSIONS: Patients on hemodialysis, especially women and older people, have little knowledge about stroke.

Resumo O objetivo deste artigo é apresentar o estado da arte sobre a reprodução homoparental cis no campo da saúde coletiva. Vinte e oito estudos abordam barreiras para a reprodução de casais homoparentais relacionadas a questões legais, éticas, técnicas e econômicas, além de preconceito e discriminação. Seis abordam facilitadores, tais como acolhimento nos serviços, disponibilidade de métodos conceptivos e contraceptivos e a capacitação de profissionais. Os achados evidenciam que a discussão se volta mais para as barreiras do que para os facilitadores. Isso pode indicar que ainda se faz necessário promover a problematização do modelo hegemônico de família nuclear e heterossexual.

Abstract The aim of this article is to present the state of the art, in the field of public health, on cis homoparental reproduction, from 28 studies addressing barriers to reproduction by homoparental couples for legal, ethical, technical or economic reasons, in addition to prejudice and discrimination. Six studies addressed facilitators, such as receptiveness in services, availability of conception and contraceptive methods and training of health professionals. The results show that the discussion has focused more on the barriers than on the facilitating factors. This may indicate a continuing need to problematise the hegemonic model of a heterosexual, nuclear family.

Abstract Background Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are relevant to the management of breast cancer treatment since a substantial number of patients develop these complications after chemotherapy. Objective This study aims to evaluate new cardiovascular biomarkers, namely CXCL-16 (C-X-C motif ligand 16), FABP3 (fatty acid binding protein 3), FABP4 (fatty acid binding protein 4), LIGHT (tumor necrosis factor superfamily member 14/TNFS14), GDF-15 (Growth/differentiation factor 15), sCD4 (soluble form of CD14), and ucMGP (uncarboxylated Matrix Gla-Protein) in breast cancer patients treated with doxorubicin (DOXO). Methods This case-control study was conducted in an oncology clinic that included 34 women diagnosed with breast cancer and chemotherapy with DOXO and 34 control women without cancer and CVD. The markers were determined immediately after the last cycle of chemotherapy. The statistical significance level adopted was 5%. Results The breast cancer group presented higher levels of GDF-15 (p<0.001), while control subjects had higher levels of FABP3 (p=0.038), FABP4 (p=0003), sCD14, and ucMGP (p<0.001 for both). Positive correlations were observed between FABPs and BMI in the cancer group. Conclusion GDF15 is an emerging biomarker with potential clinical applicability in this scenario. FABPs are proteins related to adiposity, which are potentially involved in breast cancer biology. sCD14 and ucMGP engage in inflammatory and vascular calcification. The evaluation of these novel cardiovascular biomarkers could be useful in the management of breast cancer chemotherapy with DOXO.

Resumo Fundamento As doenças cardiovasculares (DCV) são relevantes para o manejo do tratamento do câncer de mama, uma vez que um número significativo de pacientes desenvolve essas complicações após a quimioterapia. Objetivo Este estudo teve como objetivo avaliar novos biomarcadores cardiovasculares, sendo eles CXCL-16 (ligante de motivo C-X-C 16), FABP3 (proteína de ligação a ácidos graxos 3), FABP4 (proteína de ligação a ácidos graxos 4), LIGHT (membro da superfamília do fator de necrose tumoral 14/TNFS14), GDF-15 (fator de crescimento/diferenciação 15) , sCD4 (forma solúvel de CD14) e ucMGP (matriz Gla-proteína não carboxilada) em pacientes com câncer de mama tratadas com doxorrubicina (DOXO). Métodos Este estudo de caso-controle foi realizado em uma clínica oncológica, incluindo 34 mulheres com diagnóstico de câncer de mama tratadas com quimioterapia com DOXO e 34 mulheres controle, sem câncer ou DCV. Os marcadores foram determinados imediatamente após o último ciclo de quimioterapia. O nível de significância estatística adotado foi de 5%. Resultados O grupo com câncer de mama apresentou níveis mais elevados de GDF-15 (p<0,001), enquanto os indivíduos controle apresentaram níveis mais elevados de FABP3 (p=0,038), FABP4 (p=0003), sCD14 e ucMGP (p<0,001 para ambos). Correlações positivas foram observadas entre FABPs e IMC no grupo com câncer. Conclusão GDF15 é um biomarcador emergente com potencial aplicabilidade clínica neste cenário. FABPs são proteínas relacionadas à adiposidade, potencialmente envolvidas na biologia do câncer de mama. sCD14 e ucMGP estão envolvidos na calcificação inflamatória e vascular. Acima de tudo, a avaliação destes novos biomarcadores cardiovasculares pode ser útil no tratamento da quimioterapia do câncer de mama com DOXO.

Resumen: En | Texto: En | PDF: En

ABSTRACT Salinity is one of the main challenges in agriculture, especially in arid and semi-arid regions. Salicylic acid application may be a strategy to mitigate the harmful effects of salt stress on plant growth. Basil (Ocimum basilicum ) is a medicinal, spice, and ornamental plant grown around the world that has its growth reduced by salt stress. Therefore, the objective was to evaluate salicylic acid in mitigating the damage caused by salt stress in ‘Cinnamon’ basil. Growth was evaluated at 90 days after the start of irrigation with saline water. Salicylic acid application attenuates the harmful effects of salt stress on the number of leaves, number of inflorescences, leaf dry mass, inflorescence dry mass, root dry mass, seed mass, leaf area, leaf area ratio, specific leaf area, leaf mass ratio, root mass ratio, inflorescence mass ratio, Dickson quality index, sclerophilia index, robustness quotient and shoot root ratio. Salt stress decreased plant height, stem diameter, stem dry mass, and stem mass ratio of basil ‘Cinnamon’. Salicylic acid can be used to lessen the harmful effects of salt stress on basil ‘Cinnamon’.

RESUMO: O uso da mecanização na cafeicultura tem se mostrado de suma importância na colheita do cafeeiro, reduzindo custo e tempo desta operação. Entretanto, a intensificação da colheita mecanizada, sem o controle dos riscos ocupacionais tem exposto trabalhadores aos níveis elevados de ruído ocupacional capazes de comprometer sua saúde auditiva. O objetivo do trabalho foi avaliar o nível de ruído ocupacional emitido por colhedoras automotrizes na colheita do cafeeiro, bem como os limites de exposição e nível de ação do operador e auxiliar. Para as avaliações foram utilizadas três colhedoras automotrizes: Case-IH® modelo COFFE EXPESS 200, com cabine; OXBO® modelo 9220, com cabine; KORVAN® modelo 9200, sem cabine. A coleta dos dados foi realizada utilizando dosímetro de ruído modelo DOS-700. Foi avaliado o nível de exposição ao ruído do operador e auxiliar das colhedoras. Foram realizadas cinco repetições, sendo cada repetição formada por duas horas de avaliações. Os dados obtidos foram comparados com o nível de ação e limite de exposição das normativas NHO 01 e NR 15. O nível de ação das normativas NHO 01 (82 dB) e NR 15 (80 dB) foram ultrapassados no operador e auxiliar nas três colhedoras avaliadas. Em relação ao limite de exposição (85 dB), o nível foi ultrapassado no operador das colhedoras KORVAN® e Case-IH® de acordo com a NHO 01. Na normativa NR 15, o limite de exposição ficou acima de 85 dB no operador da colhedora KORVAN®. No auxiliar todas as colhedoras emitiram níveis de ruídos acima de 85 dB tanto na normativa NHO 01 quanto na NR 15.

ABSTRACT: This study evaluated the level of occupational noise emitted by automotive harvesters during coffee harvest. For the evaluations, three self-propelled harvesters were used: Case-IH® model Coffee Express 200, with cabin; Korvan® model 9200, without cabin; and Oxbo® model 9220, with cabin. Data were collected using a noise dosimeter model DOS-700. Noise levels were assessed for the operator and assistant of each harvester. Five repetitions were performed for the operator and assistant, with each repetition consisting of 2 h of evaluation. Results obtained were compared with the action level and exposure limit of the Regulatory Norms (NR) 15 and Occupational Hygiene Norms (NHO) 01. The action levels of the NHO 01 (82 dB) and NR 15 (80 dB) regulations were exceeded for the operator and assistant in the three evaluated harvesters. Regarding the exposure limit (85 dB), the level was exceeded for the operator of the Korvan® and Case-IH® harvesters in accordance with NHO 01. In the NR 15 regulation, the exposure limit was > 85 dB for the operator of the Korvan® harvester. For the assistant, all harvesters emitted noise levels > 85 dB based on both the NHO 01 and NR 15 regulations.

RESUMO OBJETIVO Mapear a produção científica global sobre homoparentalidade no campo da saúde coletiva ou saúde pública. MÉTODOS Em termos de procedimentos metodológicos, foi realizada uma revisão de escopo, tendo como norte a seguinte pergunta: quais são os aspectos abordados na produção científica global a respeito de famílias homoparentais no campo da saúde coletiva ou pública? As buscas foram realizadas em sete fontes de literatura científica, sendo incluídos 58 estudos, envolvendo artigos científicos e dissertações. O tratamento analítico dado aos estudos, em sua maioria qualitativos, seguiu a técnica de análise de conteúdo na modalidade temática. RESULTADOS Os resultados indicam que percepções de homossexuais e de profissionais sobre cuidados prestados e serviços de saúde em geral foi a temática abordada por maior número de estudos (n = 31), seguida de contexto heteronormativo dos serviços de saúde (n = 26); revelação da orientação sexual (n = 20); fertilização (n = 14); informações e ações educativas (n = 5). CONCLUSÃO Embora a questão da homoparentalidade venha sendo discutida em alguns setores da saúde, há ciência de que é preciso contar com uma base consolidada por meio de inúmeros estudos ao se problematizar essa temática. Conclui-se que, dentre outros aspectos, que o escopo desta revisão não é problematizado de forma suficiente no âmbito da formação e atuação de profissionais de saúde.

ABSTRACT OBJECTIVE To map global scientific production on homoparenting in the field of collective health or public health. METHODS In terms of methodological procedures, a scoping review was carried out, guided by the following question: What are the aspects addressed in global scientific production regarding homoparental families in the field of collective or public health? The searches were carried out in seven sources of scientific literature, including 58 studies, involving scientific articles and dissertations. The analytical treatment given to the studies, most of which were qualitative, followed the content analysis technique in the thematic modality. RESULTS The results indicate that the perceptions of homosexuals and professionals about the care provided and health services in general was the topic addressed by the largest number of studies (n = 31), followed by heteronormative context of health services (n = 26); disclosure of sexual orientation (n = 20); fertilization (n = 14); educational information and actions (n = 5). CONCLUSION Although the issue of same-sex parenthood has been discussed in some health sectors, there is awareness that it is necessary to rely on a consolidated basis through numerous studies when discussing this issue. It is concluded that, among other aspects, the scope of this review is not sufficiently problematized within the scope of health professionals’ training and performance.

Abstract This work aimed to investigate the physicochemical and functional composition of bee pollen produced in different municipalities in the state of Rio Grande do Norte/Brazil (RN) and commercial samples produced in other places. To perform these experiments, samples of dehydrated bee pollen were crushed and subjected to physicochemical evaluation, instrumental color, fatty acid profile, evaluation of the presence of bioactive compounds [Total Phenolic Compounds (TPC), carotenoids] and antioxidant activity (reduction of DPPH radical). The pH of the pollen samples varied from 4.55 to 5.08, the protein from 19.01% to 29.71%, and the ash from 2.44% to 4.27%. All pollen samples showed a yellowish-red hue (a* and b* positive), and the pollen produced in Touros/RN/BR stood out with a lighter color (L* = 32.91). The pollen produced in Touros/RN/BR showed a higher (p < 0.05) percentage of saturated fatty acids (41.60%), whereas the pollen collected in Taipu/RN/BR had a higher percentage of monounsaturated fatty acids (7.44%). Pollen samples showed a low concentration of Total Carotenoid Content (TCC) (0.81 to 22.82 µg/g), as well as a high content of TPC (1.79 to 2.28 mg GAE/g) and antioxidant activity (1.40 to 5.70 µmol TE/g) when compared with the consulted literature. According to the obtained results, we could infer that pollen samples from different locations showed variations in physicochemical composition, coloration, fatty acid profile, TPC and antioxidant activity which reflects the geographic diversity inherent to the production sites.

ABSTRACT INTRODUCTION: Smartphone and application use can improve communication and monitoring of chronic diseases, including chronic kidney disease, through self-management and increased adherence to treatment. OBJECTIVE: To assess smartphone use in patients with chronic kidney disease on dialysis and their willingness to use mobile applications as a disease self-management strategy. DESIGN AND SETTING: This was a cross-sectional study of chronic kidney disease patients on hemodialysis in the São Francisco Valley in the Northeast Region, Brazil. METHODS: The questionnaire developed by the authors was administered between April and June 2021. Cronbach's alpha coefficient for the construct was 0.69. Associations between the dependent and independent variables were determined using univariate analysis. Multivariate analysis with logistic regression analysis was also performed. RESULTS: A total of 381 patients were included, of whom 64% had a smartphone, although only 3.1% knew of a kidney disease-related application. However, 59.3% believed that using an application could help them manage their disease. Having a smartphone was associated with treatment adherence, higher educational attainment, and higher per capita income. Educational attainment remained an independent factor in multivariate analysis. CONCLUSION: More than 64% of patients had a smartphone, although few knew of applications developed for kidney disease. More than half of the population believed that technology use could benefit chronic kidney disease treatment. Smartphone ownership was more common among the younger population, with higher educational attainment and income, and was associated with greater adherence to hemodialysis sessions.

BACKGROUND Dendritic cells (DCs) specific intercellular adhesion molecule (ICAM)-3-grabbing non integrin receptor (DC-SIGN) binds to subgenera Leishmania promastigotes mediating its interaction with DC and neutrophils, potentially influencing the infection outcome. OBJECTIVES In this work, we investigated whether DC-SIGN receptor is expressed in cells from cutaneous leishmaniasis (CL) lesions as well as the in vitro binding pattern of Leishmania (Viannia) braziliensis (Lb) and L. (L.) amazonensis (La) promastigotes. METHODS DC-SIGN receptor was labeled by immunohistochemistry in cryopreserved CL tissue fragments. In vitro binding assay with CFSE-labeled Lb or La promastigotes and RAJI-transfecting cells expressing DC-SIGN (DC-SIGNPOS) or mock-transfected (DC-SIGNNEG) were monitored by flow cytometry at 2 h, 24 h and 48 h in co-culture. RESULTS In CL lesion infiltrate, DC-SIGNPOS cells were present in the dermis and near the epidermis. Both Lb and La bind to DC-SIGNPOS cells, while binding to DC-SIGNNEG was low. La showed precocious and higher affinity to DC-SIGNhi population than to DC-SIGNlow, while Lb binding was similar in these populations. CONCLUSION Our results demonstrate that DC-SIGN receptor is present in L. braziliensis CL lesions and interact with Lb promastigotes. Moreover, the differences in the binding pattern to Lb and La suggest DC-SIGN can influence in a difference way the intake of the parasites at the first hours after Leishmania infection. These results raise the hypothesis that DC-SIGN receptor could participate in the immunopathogenesis of American tegumentary leishmaniasis accounting for the differences in the outcome of the Leishmania spp. infection.

ABSTRACT This study aimed to assess the factors associated with mucosal leishmaniasis (ML) within the scope of tegumentary leishmaniasis (TL) cases reported in Brazil. Surveillance data were assessed, and comparisons were made between ML and cutaneous leishmaniasis (CL) cases. Additionally, ML incidence rates for municipalities were depicted through a geographic information system. From 2007 to 2017, 235,489 TL cases were reported, of which 235,232 were classified as follows: 14,204 (6%) were ML cases and 221,028 (94%) were CL cases. Multivariate analysis showed that the proportion of ML cases reached 16.8% among individuals >75 years (adjusted OR = 2.77; 95% CI = 2.41-3.19; p < 0.001), and ML was also more frequent among males (aOR = 1.28; 95% CI = 1.20-1.38; p < 0.001), HIV-positive patients (aOR = 2.15; 95% CI = 1.80-2.56; p < 0.001), patients residing in urban areas (aOR = 1.52; 95% CI = 1.43-1.62; p < 0.001), and imported cases (with respect to county) when compared to autochthonous cases (aOR = 1.84; 95% CI = 1.71-1.98; p < 0.001). A lower proportion of positive results in direct parasitological examinations was observed in ML cases (32.6% vs. 60.8%; p < 0.001). The leishmanin skin test results were more often positive in ML cases (41.7% vs. 25.9%; p < 0.001). In ML, compatible changes in histopathology were more frequent (14.6% vs. 3.9%; p < 0.001). A greater proportion of ML cases were treated with amphotericin B (6.9% vs. 0.9%; p < 0.001). The case-fatality rate was higher in ML (0.6% vs. 0.1%; p < 0.001). A higher incidence of ML was observed in a geographical band extending across the Amazon region from the southern Para State to the Acre State. ML exhibited varying frequencies within specific populations. The definition of predictable factors predisposing Leishmania-infected subjects to develop ML is important for defining strategies to mitigate the mucosal damage caused by leishmaniasis.

Resumen: En | Texto: En | PDF: En

ABSTRACT Background: Determining the basic density of the wood is usually defined as a simple process, but it requires caution and the operator’s skill to avoid errors in the analysis. In addition, it involves sample preparation and time to saturate the wood until obtaining the dry sample mass. The development of alternative measurement techniques could reduce the time to obtain the results and provide reliable values. Therefore, this study aimed to develop multivariate models to estimate the basic density of native woods using near-infrared spectra (NIR). Basic densities were determined by the water immersion method, and the values were associated with NIR signatures. Spectra were directly collected on the wood transversal and radial faces with an integrating sphere. Partial least squares regression (PLS-R) was calibrated and validated to estimate basic density based on spectral signatures. Results: In the cross-validation and prediction of the models, the results were promising. The coefficients of determination varied from 0.87 to 0.93 with a standard error of 0.01 %. The partial least squares discriminant analysis (PLS-DA) efficiently classified the wood species. The ratio of performance to deviation obtained satisfactory values, a minimum of 2.81 and a maximum of 4.20. Conclusion: The statistical parameters of the models based on NIR spectra showed potential for density measurements in floors, furniture, and solid wood products.

ABSTRACT The dam safety depends heavily on the organizational structure, the developer’s philosophy, and the involved actor’s technical responsibility. In this context, the present research aimed to: introduce the concept of Engineer of Record (EoR); discuss their influence on the continuous improvement of dam safety, propose a work plan for this professional applicable to water storage dams, and estimate the costs associated with their team. Since mining dams have experienced recent accidents, safety laws, and methodologies are more stringent for these structures. Therefore, based on this experience, a list of actions for the EoR was proposed, targeted explicitly at water storage dams, divided into two stages: the first to comply with the National Dam Safety Policy (NDSP); and the second focused on the continuous improvement of the safety of these structures. Additionally, a cost estimate was conducted, resulting in a value of $ 0.15 per m3 consumed for implementing an EoR team.

RESUMO A segurança de uma barragem depende fortemente da estrutura organizacional, da filosofia do empreendedor e da responsabilidade técnica dos atores envolvidos. Neste contexto, a presente pesquisa teve como objetivos: apresentar o conceito de Engenheiro de Registro (EoR); discutir sua influência na melhoria contínua da segurança; propor um plano de trabalho para este profissional, aplicável às barragens de acúmulo de água e estimar os custos associados à sua equipe. Considerando que as barragens de mineração têm enfrentado acidentes recentes, as leis e metodologias de segurança são mais rigorosas para estas estruturas. Portanto, com base nesta experiência, propôs-se uma lista de ações para o EoR, especificamente voltada para barragens de acúmulo de água, dividida em duas etapas: a primeira, para atendimento da Política Nacional de Segurança de Barragens (NDSP); e a segunda, voltada à melhoria contínua da segurança dessas estruturas. Adicionalmente, realizou-se uma estimativa de custos, chegando ao valor de R$ 0,15 por m3 consumido para a implantação de uma equipe de EoR.

Resumen: En | Texto: En | PDF: En

ABSTRACT One of industrial companies’ challenges, especially for intensive-use plants and other assets, is the proper sizing of the stock of strategic spare parts, items that have a history of low consumption, but whose lack can cause delays in repair and maintenance services, at the extreme leading to operational shutdowns. Effects can be from small to large scales. While on one hand, having a large stock of strategic items can provide a greater guarantee of operational availability, on the other hand, it brings additional storage and preservation costs, in addition to fixed capital outlays. A compromise solution is needed. The use of traditional or simpler techniques to infer the ideal level of stock for each spare often suffers from lack of historical data, especially in installations in the initial phase of the operation and maintenance cycle. Another problem is the diversity of applications for some materials. The present work proposes a method based on reliability and Bayesian hierarchical models (HBMs) to overcome the problems of data scarcity, uncertainties and variability between applications of each spare part. The criticality of the equipment or assets in which the spare parts are applied is taken into account in the method. The hierarchical Bayesian model enables updating information as new consumption of strategic items is registered. The method is tested for a stationary offshore oil and gas unit. companies challenges intensiveuse intensive services shutdowns scales hand availability costs outlays needed cycle materials HBMs (HBMs scarcity part registered unit
