Resumo Objetivou-se realizar uma análise espacial da taxa de mortalidade hospitalar (TMH) por síndrome respiratória aguda grave (SRAG) atribuída à COVID-19 em crianças e adolescentes no Brasil no período de 2020 a 2021. Utilizou-se o método de cluster para agrupar as unidades federativas (UFs) com base na TMH. Em 2020, clusters com altas TMHs foram formados por UFs Norte/Nordeste. Em 2021, houve redução na TMH. Os clusters com maiores taxas permaneceram na região N/NE. Diferenças regionais foram observadas nas TMHs. Os achados podem refletir as desigualdades sociais e o acesso à atenção hospitalar, principalmente na faixa etária de menores de 1 ano pela gravidade da doença neste grupo.

Abstract The objective was to perform a spatial analysis of the hospital mortality rate (HMR) due to severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) attributed to COVID-19 among children and adolescents in Brazil from 2020 to 2021. A cluster method was used to group federal units (FUs) based on HMR. In 2020, clusters with high HMRs were formed by north/northeast FUs. In 2021, there was a reduction in HMR. Clusters with higher rates remained in the N/NE region. Regional differences were observed in the HMR. The findings may reflect social inequalities and access to hospital care, especially in the under 1-year-old age group due to the severity of the disease in this group.

Abstract: En Pt

Objective: to estimate the reference intervals (RIs) of complete blood count parameters in the Brazilian adult population. Methods: Cross-sectional study, with data from the National Health Survey (PNS), between 2014-2015. The final sample consisted of 2,803 adults. The final sample consisted of 2,803 adults. To establish the RI, exclusion criteria were applied, outliers were removed and partitions were made by sex, age and race/skin color. The non-parametric method was adopted. Differences were assessed using the Mann Withney and Kruskal Wallis tests (p≤0.05). Results: There were statistically significant differences for the following hematological parameters based on sex, red blood cells, hemoglobin, hematocrit, MCH, MCHC, eosinophils and absolute monocytes, neutrophils and platelets (p≤0.05). When analyzed by age, the RIs were statistically different in females for hematocrit, MCV, white blood cells and RDW and in males for red blood cells, white blood cells, eosinophils, mean platelet volume, MCV, RDW and MCH(p≤0.05). For race/color there were differences in the RIs for parameters of hemoglobin, MCH, MCHC, white blood cells and mean platelet volume, neutrophils and absolute eosinophils (p ≤ 0.05). Conclusion: The differences found in the RIs of some in blood count parameters in Brazilian adults reaffirm the importance of having their own laboratory reference standards. The results can support a more accurate interpretation of tests, adequate identification and disease prevention in Brazil.

Métodos: Estudo transversal, com dados da Pesquisa Nacional de Saúde (PNS), entre 2014-2015. A amostra final constitui-se de 2.803 adultos. Para estabelecer os IR, aplicou-se critérios de exclusão, removeram-se outliers e feito particionamentos por sexo, idade e raça/cor da pele. Adotou-se o método não paramétrico.nbsp; As diferenças foram avaliadas pelos testes Mann Withney e Kruskal Wallis (p≤0,05). Resultados: houve diferenças estatisticamente significativas nos IR segundo sexo para glóbulos vermelhos, hemoglobina, hematócrito, HCM, CHCM, eosinófilos, monócitos, neutrófilos absolutos e plaquetas (p≤0,05). Quando analisados por idade,nbsp; houve diferenças nos IR de mulheres para hematócrito, VCM, glóbulos brancos e RDW e nos homens de glóbulos vermelhos, glóbulos brancos, eosinófilos, volume plaquetário médios, VCM, RDW e HCM (p≤0,05). Para raça/cor houve diferenças nos IR de hemoglobina, HCM, CHMC, glóbulos brancos e volume plaquetário médio, neutrófilos e eosinófilos absolutos (p ≤ 0,05). Conclusão: As diferenças encontradas nos IR de alguns em parâmetros de hemograma em adultos brasileirosnbsp; reafirmam a importância de se ter padrões de referência laborarias próprios. Os resultados podem subsidiar a interpretação mais precisa dos exames, identificação adequada e a prevenção de doenças no Brasil.

Abstract Objective To evaluate clinical characteristics and outcomes of COVID-19 patients infected with HIV, and to compare with a paired sample without HIV infection. Methods This is a substudy of a Brazilian multicentric cohort that comprised two periods (2020 and 2021). Data was obtained through the retrospective review of medical records. Primary outcomes were admission to the intensive care unit, invasive mechanical ventilation, and death. Patients with HIV and controls were matched for age, sex, number of comorbidities, and hospital of origin using the technique of propensity score matching (up to 4:1). They were compared using the Chi-Square or Fisher's Exact tests for categorical variables and the Wilcoxon for numerical variables. Results Throughout the study, 17,101 COVID-19 patients were hospitalized, and 130 (0.76%) of those were infected with HIV. The median age was 54 (IQR: 43.0;64.0) years in 2020 and 53 (IQR: 46.0;63.5) years in 2021, with a predominance of females in both periods. People Living with HIV (PLHIV) and their controls showed similar prevalence for admission to the ICU and invasive mechanical ventilation requirement in the two periods, with no significant differences. In 2020, in-hospital mortality was higher in the PLHIV compared to the controls (27.9% vs. 17.7%; p = 0.049), but there was no difference in mortality between groups in 2021 (25.0% vs. 25.1%; p > 0.999). Conclusions Our results reiterate that PLHIV were at higher risk of COVID-19 mortality in the early stages of the pandemic, however, this finding did not sustain in 2021, when the mortality rate is similar to the control group.

ABSTRACT Objective: To evaluate the adherence of medical prescriptions to patient safety recommendations using the Medication Prescription Safety Checklist. Method: This is an observational, cross-sectional study carried out between May and June 2022, with 341 medical prescriptions for medicines in a hospital emergency room in the interior of Bahia - Brazil, whose data were analyzed through descriptive analysis. Results: 80% to 89% of the prescriptions adhered to the safety recommendations; the item with the highest adherence was identification of the date of the prescription, and the lowest adherence was having drugs with similar names identified in upper case or bold. Around 18.63% (n=514) of the drugs prescribed are on the list of potentially dangerous drugs for hospital use. Conclusion: The evaluation of medical prescriptions for medicines highlighted existing barriers in clinical practice, which makes it possible to develop more effective mechanisms to promote patient safety.

RESUMEN Objetivo: Evaluar la adhesión de las prescripciones médicas a las recomendaciones de seguridad del paciente utilizando la checklist - Lista de verificación de la Seguridad de la Prescripción de Medicamentos. Método: Se trata de un estudio observacional, transversal, realizado entre mayo y junio de 2022, con 341 prescripciones médicas de medicamentos, en la sala de urgencias de un hospital del interior de Bahia - Brasil, cuyos datos fueron analizados mediante análisis descriptivo. Resultados: Entre el 80% y el 89% de las prescripciones cumplieron las recomendaciones de seguridad; el punto con mayor cumplimiento fue la identificación de la fecha de la prescripción, y el de menor cumplimiento, que los medicamentos con nombres similares se identificaran en mayúsculas o en negrita. Alrededor del 18,63% (n=514) de los medicamentos prescriptos figuran en la lista de medicamentos potencialmente peligrosos de uso hospitalario. Conclusiones: La evaluación de las prescripciones médicas de medicamentos puso de manifiesto los obstáculos existentes en la práctica clínica, lo que permite desarrollar mecanismos más eficaces para promover la seguridad de los pacientes.

RESUMO: Objetivo: Identificar padrões espaciais em casos de lactentes com alterações de crescimento e desenvolvimento relacionadas à infecção pelo vírus Zika e outras etiologias infecciosas (neste trabalho denominado de síndrome congênita pelo vírus Zika), notificados no Maranhão de 2015 a 2018 e sua relação com variáveis socioeconômicas e demográficas. Métodos: Estudo ecológico de casos suspeitos notificados de síndrome congênita pelo vírus Zika nos 217 municípios do Maranhão, Brasil. Calculou-se a autocorrelação espacial pelos índices de Moran local e global (I) univariado e bivariado da taxa de detecção de casos suspeitos de síndrome congênita pelo vírus Zika com índice de desenvolvimento humano municipal, densidade demográfica, índice de Gini e tempo de emancipação político-administrativa dos municípios. O índice de Moran local foi calculado para localizar clusters com autocorrelação espacial significativa. Resultados: Houve autocorrelação espacial na análise univariada da taxa municipal de detecção de casos suspeitos de síndrome congênita pelo vírus Zika (I=0,494; p=0,001) e, na análise bivariada, correlação positiva da taxa de detecção de casos suspeitos com índice de desenvolvimento humano municipal (I=0,252; p=0,001), densidade demográfica (I=0,338; p=0,001) e tempo de emancipação dos municípios (I=0,134; p=0,001). Não houve correlação significativa da taxa de detecção de casos suspeitos com o índice de Gini (I= -0,033; p=0,131). Cinco clusters de alta detecção de casos suspeitos foram encontrados em áreas distintas do estado. Conclusões: Os municípios com maior índice de desenvolvimento humano municipal, maior densidade demográfica e mais tempo de emancipação político-administrativa tiveram mais casos suspeitos notificados de síndrome congênita pelo vírus Zika.

ABSTRACT: Objective: To identify spatial patterns in cases of changes in growth and development related to Zika virus infection and other infectious etiologies (denominated Zika virus congenital syndrome in this study) reported in Maranhão from 2015 to 2018 and their relation with socioeconomic and demographic variables. Methods: Ecological study of notified Zika virus congenital syndrome cases in the 217 cities of Maranhão, Brasil. Spatial autocorrelation was calculated using GeoDa 1.14 software and the local and global (I) Moran’s index in univariate and bivariate analyses on Zika virus congenital syndrome incidence rate with Municipal Human Development Index (MHDI), population density, Gini coefficient and the cities’ time of administrative political emancipation. Local Moran’s Index was calculated to identify clusters with significant spatial autocorrelation. Results: Spatial autocorrelation was checked in univariate analysis of the incidence rate of Zika virus congenital syndrome (I=0,494; p=0,001) and positive correlation in bivariate analysis of the incidence rate with Municipal Human Development Index (I=0,252; p=0,001), population density (I=0,338; p=0,001) and the cities’ time of administrative political emancipation (I=0,134; p=0,001). The correlation between incidence rate with Gini coefficient was not significant (I= -0,033; p=0,131). Five high-incidence clusters were found in distinct areas of the state. Conclusions: Cities with higher MHDI, higher population density and more years of administrative political emancipation had more cases of Zika virus congenital syndrome notified.

Abstract: En Pt

Objective: to estimate the prevalence and investigate the sociodemographic, health and lifestyle factors associated with the self-reported diagnosis of Cardiovascular Disease (CVD) in the Brazilian adult population. Methods: Data from the National Health Survey (PNS 2019).  The presence of CVD was self-reported through the question: "Has any doctor ever given you a diagnosis of heart disease?". Sociodemographic factors, health conditions and lifestyle were evaluated. For data analysis, Poisson Regression with robust variance was used. Results: 5.3% (95% CI: 5.04 -5.57) of Brazilian adults reported CVD, and of these, 29.08% (95% CI: 27.04-31.21) underwent bypass surgery or angioplasty and 8.26% (95% CI: 7.09-9.6) reported severe limitation in usual activities due to CD. The factors associated with CVD were advanced age; be male; race/ color white; have complete elementary and high school education; have a health plan; self-assess health as regular or bad/very bad; self-report hypertension, high cholesterol and diabetes; be a former smoker, consume fruits and vegetables as recommended, do not abuse alcohol abusively and do not practice leisure-time physical activity. Conclusions: CVD is associated with sociodemographic, health and lifestyle factors. It is important to support public policies, programs and goals for the reduction of cardiovascular diseases in Brazil, especially in the most vulnerable groups.

Objetivo: estimar a prevalência e investigar os fatores sociodemográficos, de saúde e estilo de vida associados ao diagnóstico autorreferido de doença cardiovascular (DCV)  na população adulta brasileira. Métodos: Foram analisados dados da Pesquisa Nacional de Saúde (PNS 2019). A presença de DCV foi autorreferido por meio da pergunta: “Algum médico já lhe deu o diagnóstico de uma doença do coração?”. Foi avaliado os fatores sociodemográficos, condições de saúde e estilo de vida. Para análise dos dados utilizou-se a Regressão de Poisson com variância robusta. Resultados: 5,3% (IC95%: 5,04 -5,57) dos adultos brasileiros referiram DCV, e destes, 29,08% (IC95%: 27,04-31,21) realizaram cirurgia revascularização miocárdica ou angioplastia coronariana e 8,26% (IC95%: 7,09-9,6) relataram limitação intensa nas atividades habituais devido a DCV. Os fatores associados a DCV foram a idade avançada; ser do sexo masculino; raça/cor branca; ter ensino fundamental completo e médio incompleto; possuir plano de saúde; autoavaliar a saúde como regular ou ruim/muito ruim; autorrelatar hipertensão, colesterol alto e diabetes; ser ex-fumante e consumir frutas e hortaliças conforme o recomendado, não consumir álcool de forma abusiva e não praticar atividade física no lazer. Conclusões: A DCV está associada à fatores sociodemográficos, de saúde e estilos de vida. Torna-se importante apoiar políticas públicas, programas e metas para a redução das doenças cardiovasculares no Brasil, especialmente nos grupos mais vulneráveis.

Abstract INTRODUCTION: Dengue, chikungunya, and Zika are a growing global health problem. This study analyzed the spatial distribution of dengue, chikungunya, and Zika cases in São Luís, Maranhão, from 2015 to 2016 and investigated the association between socio-environmental and economic factors and hotspots for mosquito proliferation. METHODS: This was a socio-ecological study using data from the National Information System of Notifiable Diseases. The spatial units of analysis were census tracts. The incidence rates of the combined cases of the three diseases were calculated and smoothed using empirical local Bayes estimates. The spatial autocorrelation of the smoothed incidence rate was measured using Local Moran's I and Global Moran's I. Multiple linear regression and spatial autoregressive models were fitted using the log of the smoothed disease incidence rate as the dependent variable and socio-environmental factors, demographics, and mosquito hotspots as independent variables. RESULTS: The findings showed a significant spatial autocorrelation of the smoothed incidence rate. The model that best fit the data was the spatial lag model, revealing a positive association between disease incidence and the proportion of households with surrounding garbage accumulation. CONCLUSIONS: The distribution of dengue, chikungunya, and Zika cases showed a significant spatial pattern, in which the high-risk areas for the three diseases were explained by the variable "garbage accumulated in the surrounding environment,” demonstrating the need for an intersectoral approach for vector control and prevention that goes beyond health actions.

BACKGROUND: Even students with previous academic success may face challenges that affect their academic performance. Many medical schools offer programs to students at the risk of academic failure, to ensure that they succeed in the course. OBJECTIVE AND METHODS: In this report we describe a pioneering academic tutoring program developed at a Brazilian medical school and discuss the initial results of the program based on the feedback from tutors and data regarding the progression of students in the medical course. RESULTS: In 2018, 33 students enrolled into the program. Students' performance difficulties were mainly associated with mental health problems and socioeconomic vulnerability. Of the 33 students, 27 (81.8%) were assisted by the Mental Health Support Service and 16 (48.5%) were assisted by the Social Assistance Service. In addition to the planning academic activity class load, tutors were able to assist students in solving socioeconomic issues, carrying out personal support interventions with the promotion of self-esteem, and presenting suggestions for behavioral changes in their routine. For most students (72%), the action plan proposed by the tutors was successful. Eight of the 14 (57%) students in the fourth year progressed to the final two years of in-hospital practical training (internship). CONCLUSIONS: The Academic Tutoring Program showed positive results for most of the students. Close monitoring and tutor intervention allowed students with poor academic performance to overcome the low performance cycle. These important tasks demand time and energy from tutors, and institutional recognition of these professionals is essential for the successful maintenance of the program.

RESUMO: Objetivo: Estimar a prevalência e investigar os fatores sociodemográficos, de saúde e estilo de vida associados ao diagnóstico autorreferido de doença cardiovascular na população adulta brasileira. Métodos: Analisaram-se dados da Pesquisa Nacional de Saúde (2019). A presença de doença cardiovascular foi autorreferida por meio da pergunta: “Algum médico já lhe deu o diagnóstico de uma doença do coração?”. Avaliaram-se fatores sociodemográficos, condições de saúde e estilo de vida. Para analisar os dados, utilizou-se a regressão de Poisson com variância robusta. Resultados: 5,3% (IC95% 5,04–5,57) dos adultos brasileiros referiram doença cardiovascular, destes, 29,08% (IC95% 27,04–31,21) realizaram cirurgia de revascularização miocárdica ou angioplastia coronariana e 8,26% (IC95% 7,09–9,60) relataram limitação intensa nas atividades habituais pela doença cardiovascular. Os fatores associados à doença cardiovascular foram idade avançada; ser do sexo masculino; raça/cor branca; ter ensino fundamental completo e médio incompleto; possuir plano de saúde; autoavaliar a saúde como regular ou ruim/muito ruim; autorrelatar hipertensão, colesterol alto e diabetes; ser ex-fumante; consumir frutas e hortaliças conforme o recomendado; não consumir álcool de forma abusiva; não praticar atividade física no lazer. Conclusões: A doença cardiovascular está associada a fatores sociodemográficos, de saúde e estilos de vida. Torna-se importante apoiar políticas públicas, programas e metas para reduzir doenças cardiovasculares no Brasil, especialmente nos grupos mais vulneráveis.

ABSTRACT Objective: to estimate the prevalence and investigate the sociodemographic, health, and lifestyle factors associated with the self-reported diagnosis of Cardiovascular Disease (CVD) in the adult Brazilian population. Methods: Data from the National Health Survey (PNS 2019) were analyzed. The presence of CVD was self-reported through the question: “Has any doctor ever given you a diagnosis of heart disease?”. Sociodemographic factors, health conditions, and lifestyle were evaluated. For data analysis, Poisson Regression with robust variance was used. Results: 5.3% (95%CI 5.04–5.57) of Brazilian adults reported CVD, of which, 29.08% (95%CI 27.04–31.21) underwent coronary artery bypass surgery or angioplasty and 8.26% (95%CI 7.09–9.6) reported severe limitation in usual activities due to CVD. The factors associated with CVD were advanced age; being male; white race/color; complete middle school and incomplete high school education; have health insurance; self-assessing health as regular or bad/very bad; self-reported hypertension, high cholesterol, and diabetes; being a former smoker; consuming fruits and vegetables as recommended; not consuming alcohol in excess; and not practicing leisure-time physical activity. Conclusions: CVD is associated with sociodemographic, health, and lifestyle factors. It is important to support public policies, programs, and goals for the reduction of cardiovascular diseases in Brazil, especially in the most vulnerable groups.
