Resumo Fundamentada nos estudos culturais e de gênero, esta pesquisa analisa a representatividade de mulheres em cargos de treinadora e auxiliar no futebol de mulheres, buscando identificar as estratégias de subversão e resistência adotadas para sua inserção e permanência. Os materiais de análise foram os discursos das participantes aliados a fontes documentais, como notícias e produções acadêmicas. A análise evidencia que as profissionais conquistaram o acesso aos cargos em decorrência das experiências como líderes enquanto atletas e/ou estagiárias e por seus altos níveis de capacitação. Elas asseguram sua permanência ao atestarem diariamente sua competência, mantendo o nível de capacitação e superando estereótipos de gênero. Elas personificam a eminente resistência oferecida pelas mulheres em espaços tradicionalmente reservados aos homens, tensionando as relações de poder. Contudo, a consolidação de uma condição equânime requer investimento financeiro e, sobretudo, empenho na desconstrução de estereótipos de gênero.

Abstract Based on cultural and gender studies, this research analyzes women’s representativeness as coaches and assistant coaches in women’s football, seeking to identify the subversion and resistance strategies adopted for their inclusion and permanence. The analysis focused on participants’ speeches and document sources such as news articles and academic works. It shows how professionals gained access to the roles resulting from their leadership experiences as athletes and/or interns and for their high capacity. They ensure their permanence by attesting their competence on a daily basis, maintaining their level of ability and overcoming gender stereotypes. They personify the eminent resistance offered by women in spaces traditionally reserved for men, thus tensioning power relations. However, the consolidation of equal conditions requires financial investment and, above all, a commitment to deconstructing gender stereotypes.

Resumen Fundamentada en los estudios culturales y de género, esta investigación analiza la representatividad de mujeres en cargos de entrenadora y auxiliar en el fútbol femenino, buscando identificar las estrategias de subversión y resistencia adoptadas para lograr su inserción y permanencia. Los materiales de análisis fueron los discursos de las participantes, aliados a fuentes documentales, como noticias y producciones académicas. El análisis muestra que las profesionales conquistaron su acceso a los cargos debido a sus experiencias de liderazgo como atletas y por sus altos niveles de capacitación. Aseguran su permanencia probando diariamente su competencia y superando los estereotipos de género. Encarnan la resistencia ofrecida por las mujeres en espacios tradicionalmente reservados a los hombres, tensando las relaciones de poder. Sin embargo, la consolidación de una condición de ecuanimidad requiere inversión financiera y, sobre todo, un compromiso con la deconstrucción de los estereotipos de género.

Abstract Two types of Epstein Barr virus (EBV1/EBV2) have been shown to infect humans. Although their genomes are similar, the regions containing the EBNA genes differ. This study aimed to characterize the EBV genotypes of infectious mononucleosis (IM) cases in the metropolitan region of Belém, Brazil, from 2005 to 2016. A total of 8295 suspected cases with symptoms/signs of IM were investigated by infectious disease physicians at Evandro Chagas Institute, Health Care Service, from January 2005 to December 2016. Out of the total, 1645 (19.8%) samples had positive results for EBV by enzyme immunoassay and 251 (15.3%) were submitted to polymerase chain reaction (PCR) technique, using the EBNA3C region, in order to determine the type of EBV. Biochemical testing involving aspartate aminotransferase, alanine aminotransferase and gamma-glutamyl transferase were also performed. EBV type was identified by PCR in 30.3% (76/251) of individuals; of those, 71.1% (54/76) were classified as EBV1, 17.1% (13/76) as EBV2, and 11.8% (9/76) as EBV1+EBV2. The main symptoms/signs observed with EBV1 infection were cervical lymphadenopathy (64.8%, 35/54), fever (63%, 34/54), headache (20.4%, 11/54), arthralgia (20.4%, 11/54), and exanthema (18.5%, 10/54). EBV2 infection was detected in all but two age groups, with an average age of 24 years. The most common signs/symptoms of EBV2 were fever (76.9%, 10/13), average duration of 18 days, and lymphadenopathy (69.2%, 9/13). In contrast, EBV1+EBV2 coinfections were more frequent in those aged five years or less (20.0%, 2/10). The symptoms of EBV1+EBV2 coinfection included fever (66.7%, 6/9), and cervical lymphadenopathy and headache (33.3%, 3/9) each. The mean values of hepatic enzymes according to type of EBV was significantly different (p<0.05) in those EBV1 infected over 14 years of age. Thus, this pioneering study, using molecular methods, identified the EBV genotypes in 30.3% of the samples, with circulation of EBV1, EBV2, and EBV1+EBV2 co-infection in cases of infectious mononucleosis in the northern region of Brazil.

Resumo Introdução No Brasil, a única droga disponível para o tratamento específico do Trypanosoma cruzi, causador da Doença de Chagas (DC) é o Benzonidazol (BZN), cujas reações adversas podem propiciar a interrupção do tratamento. Objetivo O objetivo desse trabalho é quantificar a proporção de ocorrência de efeitos adversos, descrevê-los e identificar os fatores de risco associados à essa ocorrência. Método Revisão sistemática conduzida de acordo com os padrões estabelecidos pelo Preferred Reporting Items is Systematic Reviews and Metanalyses (PRISMA). Incluíram-se somente ensaios clínicos randomizados controlados. Resultados Dos 134 estudos identificados, cinco foram incluídos. O tamanho da amostra variou de 77 a 2854 pessoas, e a faixa etária dos participantes, variou de zero a 75 anos. Todos os estudos incluídos apontaram reações adversas ao uso do BZN. A frequência de reação adversa chegou a 38% e a mais comum foi o rash cutâneo. O abandono do tratamento devido à reação foi citado em três estudos, variando de 6,4% a 13,4%. Conclusão As reações adversas ao uso do BZN variaram de acordo com a idade do paciente e esquema terapêutico de dose e tempo adotado, sendo o conhecimento médico acerca dessas reações imprescindível para seu uso seguro e adesão ao tratamento.

Abstract Background In Brazil, the only drug available for the treatment of Trypanosoma cruzi, which causes Chagas' Disease (CD), is the Benznidazole (BZN) whose the adverse reactions might lead to treatment dropout. Objective The objective of this study is to quantify the proportion of occurrence of adverse effects, to describe them and to identify the risk factors associated with this occurrence. Method This is a systematic review conducted through the standards established by the Preferred Reporting Items in Systematic Reviews and Metanalyses (PRISMA). Only randomized controlled trials were included. Results Five of 134 studies were included. The sample size ranged from 77 to 2854 people, and the age range of the participants ranged from zero to 75 years old. All included studies reported adverse reactions to BZN use. The frequency of adverse reaction was 38% and the most common reaction was the skin rash. The treatment dropout caused by the adverse reactions was cited in three studies and was ranging from 6.4% to 13.4%. Conclusion The adverse reactions caused by the use of BZN varied with the age of patients and the therapeutic scheme of dose and time adopted. Therefore, medical knowledge is imperative for the safe use of BZN and adherence to treatment.

Resumo Este artigo busca compreender as experiências de gênero e a construção de feminilidades de mulheres atletas do levantamento de peso. O campo empírico foi feito com uma equipe dessa modalidade. Foram observadas as sessões de treinamento e feitas entrevistas individuais com oito atletas, cujas narrativas expõem a visão dicotômica de gênero presente nesse espaço. Seus corpos trazem marcas da experiência esportiva, refletidas no volume muscular e na força diferenciada. Tais transformações tornam seus corpos dissidentes e abjetos e suas sexualidades são colocadas em suspeição. À medida que tencionam e subvertem as expectativas de uma feminilidade normalizada, essas mulheres nos convidam a refletir sobre as construções de feminilidades plurais no esporte.

Abstract This article aims to understand the gender experiences and the construction of femininities in women weightlifters. The empirical field was conducted with a team of this modality. The observation of training sessions and individual interviews conducted with eight athletes revealed a dichotomous gender view in their discourse. Their bodies bring the sports practice brands, which reflect on muscle volume and strength. Such transformations make their bodies dissident and abject, and their sexuality distrust. As far as they subvert the expectations of a standardized femininity, these women invite us to reflect on the construction of plural femininities in sports.
