The media and even the specialized literature report that the ultraviolet (UV) protection for sunglasses is critical, on the grounds that sunglasses can have a counter effect if the lenses do not provide adequate UV protection. They reason that the primary and natural mechanism is that the pupil of the eye contracts to attenuate radiation and protect the inner eye under sun exposure. Therefore, if dark lenses do not provide appropriate UV protection, there is an increased UV incidence in the inner eye due to pupil dilation, which enhances the adverse effects and impacts the ocular tissues more severely than in situations without UV protection. However, no existing literature properly quantified or supported this argument. In this work, the influx of solar UV throughout the pupil of the eye was calculated in two situations: when a person wear sunglasses and when he/she does not. In both situations, the pupil dilation and the field of view (squint) were considered with their dependence on the brightness of the ambient, calculated by modeling the solar irradiation. Finally, it was assessed whether sunglasses with poor UV protection actually increase the UV influx throughout the dilated pupil compared to the non-dilated pupil. A set of 214 sunglasses lenses were tested and the results show that pupil dilation does not play an important role in the UV influx throughout the pupil. It was observed that the FOV is the main player, surpassing the pupil size contribution by up to 314.3%, disproving the common explanation. Because of the major role of the FOV, our results show that sunglasses with UV-A protection below 86% may have a slight potential to increase hazards to the eye compared to not wearing sunglasses at all. These results can have direct impact on sunglasses standards regarding the UV protection linked to the category of the lenses.

Although the overall prognosis for differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC) is excellent, a subset of patients will experience disease recurrence or may not respond to standard treatments. In recent years, DTC management has become more personalized in order to enhance treatment efficacy and avoid unnecessary interventions.In this context, major guidelines recommend post-surgery staging to assess the risk of disease persistence, recurrence, and mortality. Consequently, risk stratification becomes pivotal in determining the necessity of postoperative adjuvant therapy, which may include radioiodine therapy (RIT), the degree of TSH suppression, additional imaging studies, and the frequency of follow-up.However, the intermediate risk of recurrence is a highly heterogeneous category that encompasses various risk criteria, often combined, resulting in varying degrees of aggressiveness and a recurrence risk ranging from 5 to 20%. Furthermore, there is not enough long-term prognosis data for these patients. Unlike low- and high-risk DTC, the available literature is contradictory, and there is no consensus regarding adjuvant therapy.We aim to provide an overview of intermediate-risk differentiated thyroid cancer, focusing on criteria to consider when deciding on adjuvant therapy in the current context of personalized approach, including molecular analysis to enhance the accuracy of patient management.

Resumo: A partir de uma perspectiva decolonial, o objetivo da pesquisa foi compreender os lugares do negro na Psicanálise atualmente. Para isto, foram realizadas 13 entrevistas semiestruturadas com psicólogas e psicanalistas negras com prática clínica. A partir de análise categorial-temática, identificamos quatro categorias: escolha da Psicanálise, articulações entre Psicanálise e relações raciais, descobrindo-se negra e a cor da Psicanálise e das (não) psicanalistas. Diante do reconhecimento das limitações da Psicanálise, foi a experiência vivida do negro o motor de deslocamento ontológico que viabilizou desobediências epistêmicas configuradas na articulação da Psicanálise com teorias sociais. Este resultado evidencia o entrelaçamento da colonialidade do saber e do ser na matriz colonial do poder e enfatiza a desobediência ontológica como via fundamental para práticas psis antirracistas.

Abstract: From a decolonial perspective, the aim of the research was to understand the places of black people in Psychoanalysis today. For this, 13 semi-structured interviews were carried out with black psychologists and psychoanalysts with clinical practice. From a categorical-thematic analysis, we identified four categories: choosing Psychoanalysis, articulating Psychoanalysis and racial relations, discovering oneself as black and the color of Psychoanalysis and of (non) psychoanalysts. Given the recognition of Psychoanalysis's constraints, it was the lived experience of black people that was the engine of ontological displacement that enabled epistemic disobedience configured in the articulation of Psychoanalysis with social theories. This result highlights the intertwining of the coloniality of knowledge and being in the colonial matrix of power, emphasizing ontological disobedience as a fundamental path to anti-racist psychological practices.
RESUMO
PURPOSE: To evaluate inflammatory response in critical bone injuries after implantation of the biomaterial composed of hydroxyapatite (HA)/poly (lactic-coglycolic acid) (PLGA)/BLEED. METHODS: Forty-eight male Wistar rats (280 ± 20 grams) were divided into two groups: control group (CG), in which the animals do not receive any type of treatment; and biomaterial group (BG), in which the animals received the HA/PLGA/BLEED scaffold. Critical bone injury was induced in the medial region of the skull calotte with the aid of a trephine drill 8 mm in diameter. The biomaterial was implanted in the form of 1.5-mm thick scaffolds. Serum and calotte were collected at one, three and seven days. RESULTS: Biomaterial had a significant effect on the morphological structure of the bone, accelerating osteoblast activation within three days, without causing exacerbated systemic inflammation. In addition, quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) analysis showed that BG induced upregulation of osteogenic genes such as runt-related transcription factor 2, and stimulated genes of inflammatory pathways such as tumor necrosis factor-α, on the first day without overexpressing genes related to bone matrix degradation, such as tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinases-1 and matrix metalloproteinase-9. CONCLUSIONS: The HA/PLGA/BLEED® association can be used as a bone graft to aid bone repair, as it is capable of modulating expression of important genes at this stage of the repair process.

As the main vector for the bacterium Rickettsia rickettsii in Brazil, the tick Amblyomma sculptum is a parasite of great public health importance in this country. Wolbachia is an endosymbiont bacterium highly widespread among invertebrates and because of its impact on its hosts' biology, form a powerful alternative for pests and disease control. The aim of this study was to investigate the occurrence of this bacterium in A. sculptum. For this, 187 adult ticks collected in two municipalities in the interior of the state of São Paulo, Brazil, were analyzed using molecular techniques and bioinformatics tools. A total of 15 ticks were positive for the presence of Wolbachia. Phylogenetic analysis on the 16S rRNA gene indicated that the Wolbachia DNA sequences obtained in this investigation belonged to different clades, probably in supergroups B and F. This was the first study to report the occurrence of Wolbachia in A. sculptum and it enriches knowledge about the susceptibility of ticks to this bacterium. Now that we know that Wolbachia can be found in A. sculptum, the objective for a next study must be to investigate Wolbachia's possible origin in this tick.

Bovine genital campylobacteriosis (BGC) and bovine trichomoniasis (BT) are diseases of cattle that are primarily transmitted through sexual contact. Although bulls may be asymptomatic, these infectious diseases contribute to reproductive failure, embryonic death, and abortion in cows. Infection in cattle causes significant economic losses. BGC is caused by two bacterial subspecies, Campylobacter fetus subsp. venerealis and Campylobacter fetus subsp. fetus, whereas the protozoan Tritrichomonas foetus causes BT. Mato Grosso state has the largest bovine herd in Brazil, particularly in the Pantanal region. This area encompasses vast expanses of land characterized by annual floods and a predominant reliance on natural breeding for animal reproduction. These conditions create a favorable environment for the occurrence of BGC and BT within the herd. Given the lack of up-to-date data regarding the prevalence of these diseases, this study aimed to examine the presence of Campylobacter spp. and Tritrichomonas foetus in samples from 100 bulls in the municipalities of Poconé, Santo Antônio de Leverger, and Nossa Senhora do Livramento located in the Pantanal region of Mato Grosso state. Preputial smegma samples were retrieved using preputial swabs and stored in a saline solution at -80ºC for subsequent analysis. Polymerase chain reaction was used to identify the presence of Campylobacter fetus subsp. venerealis, Campylobacter fetus subsp. fetus, and Tritrichomonas foetus. Despite a questionnaire revealing epidemiological conditions conducive to the persistence and spread of these pathogens, they were not detected in the bulls evaluated on rural properties in the Pantanal of Mato Grosso region.(AU)
Campilobacteriose genital bovina (CGB) e Tricomonose bovina (TB) são doenças infectocontagiosas de transmissão venérea, assintomáticas nos touros, sendo consideradas como importantes enfermidades causadoras de falha reprodutiva, morte embrionária ou abortamento, ocasionando perdas econômicas significativas em rebanhos bovinos infectados. CGB é causada pela bactéria Campylobacter fetus subsp. venerealis e Campylobacter fetus subsp. fetus, e TB pelo protozoário Tritrichomonas foetus. O estado de Mato Grosso é detentor do maior rebanho bovino do Brasil, envolve a região do Pantanal Mato-Grossense que possui grandes extensões de terra, com ciclo anual de enchentes e a reprodução dos animais realizada predominantemente por monta natural, condições estas, favoráveis a presença de CGB e TB no rebanho. Considerando a carência de informações recentes sobre a ocorrência dessas enfermidades no estado de Mato Grosso, o objetivo deste estudo foi investigar a presença de Campylobacter spp. e Tritrichomonas foetus em 100 touros provenientes dos municípios de Poconé, Santo Antônio de Leverger e Nossa Senhora do Livramento, localizados na região pantaneira do estado de Mato Grosso. Amostras de esmegma prepucial foram coletadas por meio de escarificação via swab prepucial e armazenadas em solução salina a -80ºC. Para a detecção de Campylobacter fetus subsp. venerealis, Campylobacter fetus subsp. fetus, e Tritrichomonas foetus, foi realizada a reação em cadeia pela polimerase (PCR). Apesar do questionário aplicado nas propriedades revelar condições epidemiológicas que favorecem a manutenção e disseminação desses patógenos, este estudo não identificou a presença dos referidos agentes em touros avaliados nas propriedades rurais do pantanal Mato-Grossense.(AU)

OBJECTIVE: to determine the rate of hospitalizations due to acute non-drug poisoning (NDP) events and to analyze mortality arising from these health conditions in Brazil from 2009 to 2018. METHODS: this was a time-series study using Prais-Winsten regression to analyze records of hospitalizations for "treatment of intoxication or poisoning due to exposure to non-drug substances" held on the Hospital Information System. RESULTS: there were 125,570 hospitalizations due to NDP. The average hospitalization rate was 6.3/100,000 inhabitants, although it was higher in males (8.0/100,000 inhab.) compared to females (4.6/100,000 inhab.). The hospitalization rate and the overall mortality rate due NDP to fell from 9.4 to 4.5/100,000 inhab. and from 2.5 to 1.6/1 million inhab., respectively. CONCLUSIONS: there was a reduction in the NDP hospitalization rate and in mortality due to NDP during the decade analyzed.

The present study aimed to analyze the conceptions of a health management team about their relationship with professionals in the services offered by a municipal healthcare network. The Focus Groups technique was used for data collection: three groups were conducted with an average of 12 participants each and an approximate duration of two hours. The IRAMUTEQ software was used for data analysis, which allows a lexical analysis of the Descending Hierarchical Classification type. Five distinct classes were found. The theoretical-philosophical framework of Edgar Morin's Theory of Complexity was used to discuss the results, which proposes the aspiration to non-reductionist knowledge and the recognition of the incompleteness of any type of knowledge. As final considerations, we understand that the phenomenon addressed in this study consists of multiple factors that recursively affect each other. We stress the discussion about the intersection of the territory in the work dynamics of management teams. In addition, we highlight the value of the meeting between different actors as a possibility of genuine openness to difference, toward the collective construction of this health system. (AU)
Objetivou-se analisar as concepções de uma equipe gestora em saúde sobre sua relação com profissionais dos serviços de uma rede municipal. Aplicou-se a técnica de Grupos Focais: foram três grupos, com 12 participantes cada e duração aproximada de duas horas. Para a análise empregou-se o software IRAMUTEQ que permite uma análise lexical do tipo Classificação Hierárquica Descendente, que resultou em cinco classes distintas. Para discussão dos resultados utilizou-se referencial teórico-filosófico da Teoria da Complexidade de Edgar Morin, que traz a aspiração a um saber não reducionista e o reconhecimento da incompletude de qualquer conhecimento. Entende-se que o fenômeno aqui abordado é constituído por múltiplos fatores que se afetam mútua e recursivamente. Destaca-se a discussão dos atravessamentos do território na dinâmica de trabalho da equipe gestoras. Reforça-se o valor do encontro entre diversos atores enquanto possibilidade de abertura genuína à diferença, na direção de uma construção coletiva do sistema de saúde. (AU)

OBJECTIVES: To determine the incidence, aetiology and pneumococcal serotype distribution of community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) in Brazilian adults during a 2-year period. DESIGN: Prospective population-based surveillance study. SETTING: Patients from two emergency hospitals in Brazil were consecutively included in this study. PARTICIPANTS: A total of 111 adults aged 50 years and older with radiographically-confirmed CAP requiring an emergency department visit were prospectively enrolled between January 2018 and January 2020. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Incidence rates of CAP were calculated according to age and pathogen. Pathogens were identified by conventional microbiological methods. Additionally, a novel, Luminex-based serotype specific urinary antigen detection assay was used to detect serotypes included in pneumococcal vaccines. RESULTS: Mean age of participants was 64 years and 31% were aged ≥70 years. Aetiology was established in 61 (57%) patients; among identified cases, the most common pathogens were Streptococcus pneumoniae (42/61, 69%) and influenza (4/61, 7%). Among serotypes identified from the 42 cases of pneumococcal CAP, estimated coverage ranged by pneumococcal vaccine formulations from 47.6% (13-valent), 59.5% (20-valent, licenced in the USA only) and 71.4% (23-valent). In patients with CAP, 20-valent pneumococcal vaccine serotypes were identified 2.5 times more frequently than 10-valent pneumococcal vaccine serotypes (22.5% vs 9.0%). The incidence rate for CAP in adults aged ≥50 years was 20.1 per 10 000 person-years. In general, the incidence of CAP increased consistently with age, reaching 54.4 (95% CI 36.8 to -76.6) per 10 000 in adults 80 years or older. CONCLUSIONS: We observed a high burden of pneumococcal CAP among adults in Brazil. Despite the routine immunisation of children and high-risk adults against pneumococcal disease in the Brazilian national vaccination programme, a persistent burden of pneumococcal CAP caused by vaccine serotypes remains in this population.

Cells from different origins behave differently regarding the incorporation of exogenous DNA and formation of transgenic cells. Milk production of recombinant antibody may benefit from efficient transfection protocols to produce transgenic animals. In this context, the objective of this study was to verify the transfection potential of bovine mesenchymal stem cells from Wharton's jelly (MSC-WJ) and adipose tissue (MSC-AT), comparing co-transfection protocols with vectors pBC1-anti-CD3 and pEF-NEO-GFP, using transfection reagents Lipofectamine LTX with Plus Reagent or Xfect. Skin fibroblasts (FIB) were used as the control group. Forty-eight hours after transfection, neomycin was added and cells cultured for 2 weeks. Treated cells were submitted to fluorescence microscopy, flow cytometry, and PCR evaluations. Wharton's jelly cells were sensitive to treatments and started necrosis. In the flow cytometry assay, the median fluorescence was higher in adipocytes than fibroblasts, for both the Xfect (20.057 ± 1.620,7 and 10.601 ± 702,86, respectively, p < 0.05) and LTX (19.590 ± 113,84 and 10.518 ± 442,65, respectively, p < 0.05). These results, associated with evaluation of epifluorescence, demonstrated that adipocytes presented a better response to transfection than other cells, independent of the kit used. Performing PCR on co-transfected cells demonstrated the presence of anti-CD3, making this approach feasible for future experiments.

RESUMO. O presente artigo analisou o estado da arte da psicopatologia do trabalho no Brasil, como objeto de pesquisa e como disciplina, a partir de revisão bibliográfica sistemática integrativa. Foi realizado levantamento em bases de dados virtuais utilizando os descritores 'psicopatologia do trabalho' e 'psicopatologia' (AND) 'trabalho'. Foram incluídos artigos disponibilizados integralmente em português publicados em revistas com revisão cega de pares contendo os descritores no título, resumo, palavras-chave e/ou corpo do texto. O conjunto final dos textos analisados se constituiu de 28 artigos publicados entre 1992 e 2019 majoritariamente em periódicos da psicologia com psicodinâmica do trabalho como referencial teórico e/ou metodológico. Foram ainda identificadas três tendências no uso do termo 'psicopatologia do trabalho' nos artigos: 1) psicopatologia do trabalho como objeto de estudo; 2) como disciplina; e 3) para debater as compreensões das relações entre trabalho e patologias e suas implicações na prática. Enquanto objeto de estudo, as relações entre trabalho e doença mental são negligenciadas. Como disciplina, identificaram-se imprecisões que flexibilizam ou ignoram os limites entre psicopatologia e psicodinâmica do trabalho. Ambas as tendências da literatura podem estar relacionadas com a desconsideração de fatores históricos na determinação da construção dos campos de estudo.

ABSTRACT. This article analyzed the state of the art of psychopathology of work in Brazil, as an object of study and as a subject, by performing an integrative systematic literature review. A search was conducted in virtual databases using the descriptors 'psychopathology of work' and 'psychopathology' (AND) 'work'. We included articles available in full in Portuguese, published in blind peer-reviewed journals containing the descriptors in the title, abstract, keywords and/or body of the text. The final set of texts consisted of 28 articles published between 1992 and 2019, mostly in psychology journals using psychodynamics of work as theoretical and/or methodological reference. Three trends were also identified in the use of the term 'psychopathology of work' in the articles: 1) psychopathology of work as an object of study; 2) as a subject; and 3) to discuss the understandings of the relationships between work and pathologies and their practical implications. As an object of study, the relationship between work and mental illness is neglected. As a subject, inaccuracies that flexibilize or ignore the limits between psychopathology of work and psychodynamics of work were identified. Both trends in the literature may be related to the lack of reflections that consider the Brazilian context to understand the relations between work and pathology.

The presence of capybaras (Hydrochoerus hydrochaeris) in urban and periurban areas has caused increased numbers of cases of Brazilian spotted fever. With the aim of investigating the presence of the parasitoid Ixodiphagus hookeri in Amblyomma sculptum ticks in the municipality of Salto, state of São Paulo, samples were collected monthly from 14 sites. Thirty samples were placed in containers for observation of the emergence of microhymenopterans and 88 samples were subjected to molecular testing to identify the presence of I. hookeri DNA. Neither dissections nor observation of emergence indicated any presence of I. hookeri larvae in ticks. Samples subjected to polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplification of the mCOX I region of I. hookeri did not reveal its presence, although fragments corresponding to mRNA 16S of Amblyomma sculptum ticks were amplified in all samples tested.

Methods: this was a time-series study using Prais-Winsten regression to analyze records of hospitalizations for "treatment of intoxication or poisoning due to exposure to non-drug substances" held on the Hospital Information System. Results: there were 125,570 hospitalizations due to NDP. The average hospitalization rate was 6.3/100,000 inhabitants, although it was higher in males (8.0/100,000 inhab.) compared to females (4.6/100,000 inhab.). The hospitalization rate and the overall mortality rate due NDP to fell from 9.4 to 4.5/100,000 inhab. and from 2.5 to 1.6/1 million inhab., respectively. Conclusions: there was a reduction in the NDP hospitalization rate and in mortality due to NDP during the decade analyzed.

OBJECTIVE: To estimate the incidence of hospitalizations considering drug intoxication and the mortality of these diseases in Brazil, given trends from 2009 to 2018. METHODS: Data on hospital admissions and deaths come from DATASUS and demographic data from the Brazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics (IBGE). Hospital admissions with Autorização para Internação Hospitalar (AIH - Authorization for Hospital Admission) indicated as a procedure "treatment of intoxication or poisoning due to exposure to drugs and substances for non-drug use" were selected, with only cases of hospitalization due to drug intoxication being analyzed. The incidence of hospitalization and mortality were calculated separately for intoxications caused by medicamentos com prescrição (MRx - prescription drugs) and medicamentos isentos de prescrição (MIP - over-the-counter drugs). Rates were further stratified by sex, age group, and region of residence in Brazil. Trend analysis was performed by generalized linear regression using the Prais-Winsten method. RESULTS: MRx caused most hospitalizations (97%), with mortality approximately 50 times higher when compared to hospitalizations for MIP. The incidence trend in hospitalizations for MRx was stationary and mortality increased during the study period, whereas the trend in mortality and in the incidence of hospitalizations for MIP decreased. CONCLUSIONS: Hospitalizations for drug intoxication, especially those caused by MRx, have a great impact and importance on public health considering that prevention is possible.

INTRODUCTION: Ferulic acid is a phenolic compound widely distributed in monocotyledons, with several applications, especially in pharmaceutical and dermo-cosmetic industries. It has proven antioxidant and anti- inflammatory activities, among others, which are mainly ascribed to its molecular structure. The main factor that can lead to serious skin damages like inflammation, dryness, wrinkles, and cancer is the exposure to UV radiation that is responsible for an increased level of radical oxygen species. OBJECTIVE: This review aims to evaluate the application of ferulic acid in topical formulations and the technologies used to enhance its bioavailability and stability, as well as to get a clearer picture of its effects by in vivo and in vitro studies. METHODS: It covers technological publications in the WIPO, EPO, INPI, and USPTO databases and scientific publications in the PubMed, Web of Sciences, and Science Direct databases, exploring the trend and application of this compound by country and year of publication. RESULTS: Both the scientific and technological analyses showed the importance and tendency in the association of the Ferulic Acid and other vitamins and actives. The synergic effect certainly provides a better result, performance, and stability of the compounds, which cleared the great spectrum and applicability of the Ferulic Acid in topical formulations. CONCLUSION: The present literature survey revealed that ferulic acid exerts an important activity in several formulations for topical application and improved the stability and bioavailability when combined with new technologies and methods, showing an open path to target the treatment of skin disorders.

RESUMO OBJETIVO: Estimar a incidência de hospitalizações por intoxicação medicamentosa e a mortalidade desses agravos no Brasil, descrevendo as tendências de 2009 a 2018. MÉTODOS: Os dados de internações hospitalares e óbitos originam-se do DATASUS e os dados demográficos, do Instituto Brasileiro de Geografia e Estatística (IBGE). Foram selecionadas as internações hospitalares cuja Autorização para Internação Hospitalar (AIH) indicasse como procedimento "tratamento de intoxicação ou envenenamento por exposição a medicamento e substâncias de uso não medicamentoso", sendo analisados apenas os casos de hospitalização por intoxicação medicamentosa. A incidência de hospitalização e a mortalidade foram calculadas separadamente para intoxicações causadas por medicamentos com prescrição (MRx) e isentos de prescrição (MIP). As taxas foram ainda estratificadas por sexo, faixa etária e região de residência no Brasil. A análise de tendência foi realizada por regressão linear generalizada pelo método de Prais-Winsten. RESULTADOS: A maioria das internações foi causada por MRx (97%), com mortalidade aproximadamente 50 vezes maior, quando comparada às internações por MIP. A tendência da incidência das internações por MRx foi estacionária, mas a mortalidade aumentou durante o período estudado, enquanto a tendência na mortalidade e na incidência de internações por MIP foi decrescente. CONCLUSÕES: As internações por intoxicação medicamentosa, sobretudo aquelas causadas por MRx, têm grande impacto e importância na saúde pública, especialmente porque esses agravos podem ser prevenidos.

The aim of the present study was to evaluate the resistance of tick populations on 16 family farms that were members of the agricultural producers' cooperative of the São Pedro region of the state of São Paulo (COOPAMSP). Bioassays were conducted on nine commercial products in 2018 and 2019. Their active agents were as follows: deltamethrin, amitraz, cypermethrin + chlorpyrifos + citronella, cypermethrin + chlorpyrifos + fenthion, cypermethrin + chlorpyrifos + piperonyl butoxide, dichlorvos + chlorpyrifos, cypermethrin, chlorfenvinphos + dichlorvos, and ivermectin. On some farms, a larval packet test (LPT) was also performed. Overall, four acaricides presented mean efficacy greater than 89%, among which two were associations of pyrethroids + organophosphates and two were associations of organophosphates + organophosphates. Deltamethrin, cypermethrin and ivermectin presented mean efficacy lower than 50%. In the bioassays using the LPT, all five farms showed resistance to diazinon, while only one farm presented resistance to cypermethrin. The results were handed over to each farmer with appropriate guidance for treatments. This study demonstrated that the important points to be implemented related directly to use control strategies, based on direct assistance for farmers and diagnosis of tick population sensitivities.
