Our aim was to determine whether microalgae (Schizochytrium limacinum) supplementation affects daily production, composition and fatty acid profile of organic milk. Eight lactating cows were kept in pasture and divided in two groups: those fed corn cob as a supplement twice a day during milking (CTL) and those fed corn cob mixed with 100 g of microalgae (ALG) per cow daily. Microalgae did not affected daily milk production and composition, but a tendency of milk fat reduction was observed. The level of stearic acid in the milk of cows fed ALG was significantly lowered 2.46-fold, whereas levels of elaidic acid and conjugated linoleic acid were significantly elevated by 3.3-fold and 1.8-fold, respectively. A significantly greater PUFA:MUFA ratio was observed in ALG treatment, while the MUFA:saturated fatty acid ratio showed a tendency to increase (P=0.073). Microalgae rich in omega-3 fatty acids successfully enrich organic milk without negatively affecting productivity or composition. Consumers could be attract to increase the intake of omega 3 polynsaturated fat from organic milk. These results could support nutritionist and farmers decision to feed microalgae to dairy cattle since it is economically viable.

Objective: to understand the meanings of the hospitalization process and the use of music as a health promoter, in the perception of children and adolescents undergoing cancer treatment. Method: exploratory, descriptive research, with a qualitative approach, based on the assumptions of Health Promotion and Symbolic Interactionism. It counted on the participation of 11 children and adolescents, between seven and 13 years old, who were experiencing hospitalization due to cancer. Data collection took place in 2019 through semi-structured interviews. The data were analyzed according to the content analysis. Results: children and adolescents meant hospitalization as a process of difficult adaptation that involves a change in routine, anxieties and pain. They pointed out that music helps in coping with hospitalization, promoting their well-being by presenting an approach to home, family, by bringing feelings of joy and happiness. Conclusion: music brings meaning to the hospitalization process of children and adolescents undergoing cancer treatment, being a care technology to promote health.

Technological advances look  improvements in people's lives, especially with the current advent of artificial intelligence. This technology has sought to help the lives of children with Autistic Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and their parents, improving their quality of life and interaction with the society in which they live. This work was carried out from a literature review in scientific journals in order to present some applications for help children with ASD to promote their interaction with the social environment in which they live. The bibliographical review emphasized the applications that present the language in Portuguese, are still available for download and preferably free for help in treatment of children with ASD. Aproximatly14 applications were selected and described, adding some assessments of the benefits and difficulties when they were presented, in addition to showing representative figures and the electronic addresses to access them. Knowledge of these applications is of paramount importance for those responsible and for the clinical team that works with people with ASD and can contribute to a faster development and to improve the quality of life of people with ASD.

Objective: to analyze nursing practices in studies within the psychiatric/mental health area. Methods: An integrative review process was used to guide this study. Four databases— LILACS, MEDLINE, SCOPUS and CINAHL —were searched for eligible studies using relevant keywords. PICo strategy was employed for selection of studies. Primary studies published in Portuguese and English language from 2010 to 2020 were reviewed following a pre-determined inclusion criteria. Studies that met the inclusion criteria were appraised using the recommendation from Stetler at al. (1998).Results: 15 publications were analyzed. The evidence showed the diversity of nursing practices involved medication administration, measurement of vital signs, hygiene, nutrition, in addition to actions aimed at self-esteem and self-care. Studies about nursing actions focused on the uniqueness of the patient were also identified. From the analyzed articles, it was possible to extract a total of 15 practical nursing activities, which, in fact, demonstrates a wide range in the understood role of the nursing profession. Assistance to patients’ medication was the most cited activity by the authors. Conclusions: the implementation of nursing practices in mental health must be seen as a challenge that goes beyond the medication standard and creates care proposals with a focus on the patient. This patient centered care was present in the work dynamics of the CAPS.

The Central Venous Catheter is an intravascular device, the distal end of which is located close to or inside the right atrium, and can also be inserted into large-caliber vessels and aims to enable continuous or intermittent venous infusion, administration of blood components and blood products, nutrition parenteral, among others. This study aims to describe the role of nurses in the management of care and management of adverse events associated with the central venous catheter. It is a bibliographic review of the literature, whose articles were filtered in the Latin American and Caribbean Literature on Health Sciences (LILACS), Scientific Electronic Library Online (SciELO), PubMed, Nursing Database (BDENF) and Academic Google. The study highlighted the importance of managing risks inherent to catheterization, from insertion to removal. Bloodstream infection has become prominent as one of the main events. The need to use bundles was also highlighted, emphasizing the importance of a safety culture. Therefore, it is concluded that nurses have an essential role in the prevention and control of infections, as they directly assist patients, manipulate and control devices, connections and medications. The use of bundles are effective in reducing infection rates.

This article presents a literature systematic review, analyzing how digital technologies are being adopted to help nurses that work in hospitals in the lifelong education perspective. The bases researched were IEEE explore, ACM Digital, Pubmed, Science Direct, Scopus and Willey. The Start tool was used to applied the protocol and to select the articles, through filters and five phases. The search was started with 738 articles, which were discarded according to the phases. Six international articles were select for complete reading and analysis. It was concluded that some technological tools are used in a superficial way and not developed for the purpose of training nurses that work in hospitals. The results identified research’s gap in the use of technologies in the nurses permanent training.

Food Supplements (SA) are widely used by athletes and practitioners of physical activities, as a way to complement their diet, whether for gain, weight loss or other specific goals. Thermogenics, in this case, are composed of substances that have the ability to speed up metabolism, offering greater calorie burning and reducing appetite. On the other hand, they may contain substances, such as Synephrine, which can harm health. Thus, this research aims to investigate the chemical composition of thermogenic supplements containing synephrine. The research was divided into two stages. Firstly, the label of these supplements was analyzed, collected on the internet site, and later, a systematic literature review was carried out, in which scientific articles were selected, from 2010 to 2019, within the database from SciELO, PubMed, Bireme, Google Scholar, and LILACS, using the descriptors: Food supplements/ food supplements; Synephrine/synephrine; Slimming/slimming; Thermogenic/ thermogenic. For meeting the inclusion criteria, scientific articles and dissertations were chosen, presenting themselves in full, that is, full text, being made available in Portuguese and English, which were in accordance with the proposed theme. The study was based on approaches to the influence of supplements on quality of life, thermogenic synephrine-based and the side effects of such products. As a result, the research concluded that synephrine, being similar to ephedrine, develops effects on the cardiovascular system, which can generate cases of increased blood pressure, increased heart rate, arrhythmias and stroke, especially when associated with caffeine. Some studies have also reported that synephrine can cause liver and kidney problems. Therefore, it is concluded that such compounds when not used correctly and without proper guidance, can cause serious damage to health.

The pharmacological treatment of obesity is constantly updated and the development of new products and proposals is often seen as a controversial option that requires a careful evaluation for its use, both with regard to the patient's clinical condition and the general characteristics of the drug. to be used, making it necessary to know about its action and safety profiles related to its use. The objective is identify and systematize the most recent data present in the literature on the main drugs used in the treatment of obesity in Brazil and their adverse reactions. Integrative review of articles published in Portuguese, English and Spanish, available in full on LILACS, BIREME (BVS) and MedLine databases. The keywords "drug therapy" AND "obesity" were used for the LILACS database, "pharmacological therapy" AND "obesity" for the Medline / Pubmed database and "drugs" AND "anti-obesity" for the BIREME / VHL database for articles published in the period from 2015 to 2020, 15 studies were selected and analyzed. Results: in LILACs, MEDLINE / PUBMED and BIREME / VHL databases, 16, 49 and 305 articles were obtained, respectively, as results. At the end of all analyzes and selection criteria, 15 articles were included in the present study. Most of the drugs approved for the pharmacotherapy of obesity in Brazil have demonstrated in clinical trials well-established efficacy in weight loss. Similar rates of adverse events were observed between orlistat, liraglutide and lorcaserin, with liraglutide having the largest gastrointestinal events in the group. In the study carried out, the possibilities of new pharmacological treatments for obesity that showed greater strength in the results of weight loss, were exenatide and melatonin, with efficacy demonstrated in clinical trials.

Leprosy is a chronic infectious disease caused by Mycobacterium leprae. The treatment of leprosy is the multidrug therapy – MDT, an association of Rifampicin, Dapsone, and Clofazimine that can cause several adverse events. This paper aims to analyze the scientific productions about aspects related to side effects, adverse reactions, and/or signs and symptoms concerning medications in the use of combination and/or alternative chemotherapy used to treat leprosy. This is an integrative review for which the PubMed, LILACS, CINAHL, and Google Scholar databases were selected to search for primary studies, published between 1991 and 2020, in Portuguese, English, and Spanish. A total of 4.724 studies were identified, with 50 eligible papers, of which 33 comprised the final sample. The main themes presented by the papers were: MDT available to treat leprosy and its complications; implications and adverse effects caused by medications; actions to mitigate these effects; training for the health personnel on the treatment effects; relevance of warning the patient about the treatment and its adverse effects; the importance of quickly diagnosing and treating DHS; monitoring of laboratory tests; preventive measures to treat potential complications; notification of adverse effects and scarcity of multicentric studies that assess adverse effects and efficacy of treatment. The permanent training and education of the management and multidisciplinary health teams are necessary so that the actions have a positive impact on the quality of care provided, thus benefiting the implementation of mechanisms for surveillance and control of adverse reactions.

The means of dissemination of scientific production in Brazil, better known as scientific journals, have the qualis journal system, of the Coordination for the Improvement of Higher Education Personnel (Capes), as one of their main classification systems, and as a result of the dynamics of the production and dissemination of scientific knowledge, currently, there is no system that does not require periodic adjustments. Thus, this qualitative research, through a literature review, aims to discuss some aspects of the process of dissemination of scientific knowledge and, mainly, the new Capes methodology proposal for journal classification that will be in force from this year, 2021, when it is publication of the final version of the new Qualis Periodicals, also called Qualis Capes or Qualis Periodicals Reference. For a better visualization of the comparison between the old and the new format, a table with the number of journals in both, in each stratification category, and a graph representing this quantitative difference by stratification were created. In this way, it was noticed that, despite the initial discomfort from any proposal or change process, it is necessary and the creation of a single large area, in the context in question, it will facilitate the assessment made by Capes.

Araucaria (Araucaria angustifolia) is a tree species found in the Southeast and South of Brazil. It is also known as Brazilian pine, presenting fruits of high acceptance. However, its processing generates by-products that are little used. Thus, this work aimed to extract and characterize the cellulose obtained from the pinion husk, as well as to evaluate the contents of ash, lignin, cellulose and α-cellulose in its composition. The raw material and the extracted cellulose were characterized by X-ray fluorescence analysis (XRF), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). As for the contents of chemical composition detected, the husks showed 1.6% ash, 7% extractives, 34% lignin and 55% cellulose, being 46% α-cellulose and 9% hemicellulose. It was observed by XRD that the removal of amorphous materials resulted in a gain of crystallinity (from 19 to 33%). Proving the efficiency of the extraction, the characterization of the cellulose obtained was shown to be of high purity, since the main band of the lignin (FTIR) and the amorphous materials of the cellulosic sample (TGA) disappeared. Finally, this work shows that the pinion bark is a rich source of cellulose, making it possible to obtain nanocrystals.

This article aimed to characterize the process of creating the educational video De Olho no Óleo and how this video can serve as an example for new teaching strategies with an easy and functional profile.

The process showed that simple teaching tools can become innovative in practice.

The several papers recently published, applied to sustainable development, has been considering new methodologies and techniques in identifying the main criteria, in numeric format, that are useful in formulating possible solutions to the solid waste problem. This paper presents the Mathematical and Computational Modeling Process (PM2C), applied in the determination of control variables related to selection of areas destined to the construction of landfills, in order to benefit from new analyzes and values obtained by methods such as AHP (Analytical Hierarchy Process) and GIS (Geographic Information Systems). The main objective of this paper is the use of Artificial Intelligence (AI), through a Decision Tree strategy, as a selective method and optimal solutions in choosing the best area dedicated to the construction of landfills, with the creation and analysis of new values applied to scenarios defined in the paper of Andrade e Barbosa (2015). The results, expressed in analytical and graphical forms, show the individual values for each criterion and new scenarios involved in the phenomena. This paper highlights the importance of incorporating new conditions and criteria to propose a new decision-making rule, simultaneously, associating qualitative and quantitative characteristics, related to social and economic effects, applied to the environment management system. Based on these principles, it was possible to simulate new scenarios that demonstrate, with very high precision, the best values of useful criteria for decision-making in the selection of the optimal area for implementation of a landfill.

This article makes a brief study of the importance of the universality of policies for the implementation of access to water and basic sanitation in Brazil by analyzing Law nº 14.026/2020 of the New regulatory Framework for Basic Sanitation, which has as its main focus to promote access until 2033 through water and sanitation policy services that are provided by the public administration and private companies. Therefore, this research seeks to identify the main innovations and contradictions promoted by this law, which defends privatization by groups linked to state and municipal interests in order to avoid political and economic costs. Thus, a literature review was carried out through the methods of deductive procedure, through exploratory research using bibliographic, qualitative and documentary data. From the results obtained, it was noticed that the law has as a priority the access to universalization of drinking water and basic sanitation services, however, this law intends to destabilize the state, starting to privatize the services so that the goals are achieved and in Contrary to this, many people are unable to afford the high fees charged for services offered by private companies, as this attempt to promote water universalization must be redirected so that everyone has access to water and sanitation services regardless of income or social condition, since the use of water is consolidated as a fundamental human right, this public will have to be attended to, regardless of whether the supply service is public or private.

Adolescents make constant use of technologies, which can lead to overuse of the screen. These in turn generate mental consequences, such as stress and anxiety, which are triggering factors of bruxism. Considering this, this cross-sectional study aimed to analyze the association between bruxism and screen time in 236 adolescents, aged between 14 and 19 years of both sexes, high school students from public schools. Data were collected through questions contained in the National School Health Survey (PeNSE), Youth Risk Behavior Survey (YRBS) and Diagnostic Criteria for Research in Temporomandibular Dysfunction (RDC/TMD). The Chi-Square test was used, and the Prevalence Ratio (PR) was calculated. Among the surveyed, 30.9% were bruxists and 62.3% used screens excessively. As for bruxism, there was no association with the independent variables studied. In relation to screen time, "Monthly family income" showed an association (p-value of 0.008), in which 76.1% of the surveyed who used screens for more than two hours a day had a monthly income between one and two minimum wages. Thus, there was no association between bruxism and screen time in adolescents. Bruxism and screen time were also not associated with the variables gender and age, however, there was an association between screen time and family income.

This study aims to integrate geographic, social and health analyses considering the variables race/color, for understanding the complexity of territorialization of mental health care. For this, it proposes to answer the following question: what are the sociodemographic characteristics of the territory occupied by children, women and adolescents in the area covered by CAPSij Brasilândia? Methodology: Sectional study that allows analysis and evaluation of collective health risks to which a population is exposed, particularly socioeconomic and environmental risks. The georeferencing describes and allows the visualization of spatial distribution, marking social determinants and etiological factors that can formulate hypotheses and point out associations between the phenomena. With the GIS technology we sought to delimit the area of coverage of the service, as well as, to classify what we call by complexities for territorialization of mental health care. Results: The spatial distribution of families (black women, children and adolescents), accompanied by CAPSij shows the territorial segregation experienced by the poor and black population. The territories occupied by the majority of the black population are portraits of the racism that structures the Brazilian social fabric. Conclusion: territories are products of social relations, and can confer advantages and disadvantages related to location, infrastructure, mobility, education, work, health, culture, etc. This reality shapes the mental health processes of the black population. This study on the spatial variation in the race/color clipping in public health services allows us to see how racial inequalities impact access to the right to health, and to point out interventions from the perspective of human rights.

The management practices used by farmers in cassava crops and the relationship with the sensory quality and physicochemical characteristics of cassava roots are still incipient. The objective of this work was to evaluate the productivity, sensory quality and physicochemical properties of cassava roots at harvest times and technological management levels. The study was conducted in Santa Maria, Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil, and the management practices employed in the field experiment corresponded to low, medium and high technological levels used by farmers in southern Brazil. The cultivar “Vassourinha” was used and the roots were harvested in the sixth, the seventh, and the eighth month after planting. The productivity, the physicochemical composition of the roots (dry matter, protein, lipid, ash, total fiber, resistant starch, and total starch) were determined, and the sensory analysis of the roots was performed. Technological levels did not influence the root productivity and it increased with the delay in the harvest season. There was an increase in protein at the high technological level and the highest content of starch was found in the roots harvested in the seventh month. Sensory acceptance of the roots showed greater acceptability in the sixth and seventh months after planting, with roots of a high technological level being preferred. Based on the results, the influence of management practices in the nutritional composition of the roots represents an important aspect for assessing the potential of the roots to be consumed or used in industrial processes.

Pesticides or agrochemicals are chemical substances used in agriculture, because they have activity on countless living organisms that are harmful to crops. In this context, the organophosphorus and organochlorine compounds are of great relevance, due to the human intoxication of medical importance and environmental contamination. The objective of this work is to systematize information, contextualizing the problem in a critical way with emphasis on ecotoxicology and it’s medical consequences, associated with the use of organophosphorus and organochlorine compounds. To this end, a narrative literature review was conducted, outlined by searching for scientific articles and bibliographies about such compounds in the main international electronic repositories. The descriptors used for the search were: pesticides, agrochemicals, organochlorines, organophosphorus, toxicity, diagnosis, treatment, and environmental impact. Diagnosis is mostly clinical, but laboratory tests for evaluation/diagnosis can be performed, such as determination of erythrocyte cholinesterase (AChE) activity and plasma cholinesterase (BChE), for prognostic/monitoring purposes in chronic cases. Other tests may also be requested for analysis and investigation. The therapeutic protocol in cases of organophosphate intoxication consists of the administration of drugs with antagonistic activity to the substances, such as atropine and oximes, activated charcoal, anticonvulsant/neuroprotective drugs, and intensive care when necessary. However, there is no definitive treatment for organochlorine toxicity. Despite their high toxicity to the environment and to life forms, organophosphate compounds continue to be used for agricultural pest control, while organochlorines are used for vector control/disease dissemination. Moreover, such compounds are associated with occupational accidents and suicide.

Bizarre parostal osteochondromatous proliferation (BPOP) or also called Nora's disease, is a rare, benign lesion whose radiographic and histological characteristics can lead to a wrong diagnosis. Most of the cases reported in the literature correspond to the small tubular bones of the hands and feet, being the involvement of the skull and jaws extremely rare. Treatment is surgical and includes surgical excision, simple resection and resection with wide margins; the lesion presents high recurrence (50%) for this reason, when it occurs in small bones such as metacarpals, total amputation of the bone is chosen. Here we present a case of BPOP involving the alveolar ridge of the mandible of a 72-year-old woman. This would be the ninth published case of bizarre parostal osteochondromatous proliferation corresponding to the maxillofacial region and the fourth case located in the mandible.
