RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Disasters are events that bring with them effects that contribute to the disruption of the normality of a population and thus highlight the vulnerabilities of the health system. In Mariana and Brumadinho, the collapse of the dam of ore tailings brought with it several impacts that were felt in the short term and will be felt in the medium and long term. And that by being intensely intertwined with issues of economic and productive nature, has as its meaning an uninterrupted result of its activities. METHODS: Through the DATASUS database, two specific variables were chosen to perform the analysis: the approved amount and the approved value. For this research, a methodological device, the segmented regression line, was used to observe the influences that the disasters that occurred in Mariana and Brumadinho had on the ambulatory health systems. RESULTS: The results of the segmented regression line show that, with Mariana, the amount approved continued to grow throughout the period, which shows that there was no change because of the disaster. There was a reduction in spending. In Brumadinho, regarding the amount approved, there was an upward trend in the disaster's month, which did not change immediately afterwards, and regarding expenditure, the growth pattern was maintained in all three periods. Corroborating this data, the relative and absolute base elements show an increase in the amount approved and in the number of services provided at various posts compared with Minas Gerais. CONCLUSIONS: Based on the findings, it was possible to understand that although disasters exert an influence that may have some effect on the health system, the lack of significance sometimes cannot be interpreted as a lack of impact on the disaster. The segmented regression line outlines some effects that are not conclusive but indicative of a numerical interpretation and a trend interpretation.

RESUMO

Objetivo: analisar a inserção do homem, por meio do registro profissional, na enfermagem piauiense. Método: estudo de natureza sócio-histórica fundamentado por pressupostos de Aróstegui, conduzido a partir do número de inscrições no Conselho Regional de Enfermagem do Piauí do período de 1975 a 2021. Os dados foram organizados por ordem cronológica e de acordo com o gênero do inscrito, com análise pautada nos conceitos de Edward Palmer Thompson. Resultados: apesar da primeira inscrição masculina ocorrer apenas em 1979, percebe-se que, desde então, ocorreu um aumento progressivo de homens na enfermagem. Tal progressão é justificada pela reforma universitária, que deu origem a Universidade Federal do Piauí; além da criação do Sistema COFEN/COREN. Considerações finais: a inserção do homem na enfermagem piauiense ocorreu de forma lenta e desigual, quando comparada ao sexo feminino. Fatores sócio-políticos, econômicos e sociais foram essenciais para justificar o crescimento(AU)

Objective: analyze the insertion of men, through professional registration, in nursing in Piauí, Brazil. Method: socio-historical study based on Aróstegui's assumptions, conducted from the number of registrations in the Regional Council of Nursing of Piauí from 1975 to 2021. The data were organized in chronological order and according to the gender of the participant, with analysis based on the concepts of Edward Palmer Thompson. Results: despite the fact that the first male enrollment occurred only in 1979, it is clear that, since then, there has been a progressive increase in the number of men in nursing. Such progression is justified by the university reform, which gave rise to the Federal University of Piauí; in addition to the creation of the COFEN/COREN System. Final considerations: the insertion of men in nursing in Piauí occurred slowly and unevenly, when compared to women. Socio-political, economic and social factors were essential to justify the growth(AU)

RESUMO

Introducción: El envejecimiento es un proceso fisiológico que genera cambios en la salud de los adultos mayores. Una de las esferas que con mayor frecuencia se afecta es la psicosocial, en la cual se presenta pérdida de la independencia y autonomía funcional. Objetivo: Evaluar los resultados de un programa educativo orientado a la promoción de la independencia y autonomía funcional. Métodos: Se realizó un estudio cuasiexperimental de intervención antes - después. El universo fue de 697 adultos mayores residentes en las parroquias rurales del cantón Penipe, en la provincia Chimborazo. La muestra quedó conformada por 249 ancianos. Se aplicó un programa educativo durante 8 meses que incluyó como variable el nivel de conocimiento sobre hábitos y estilos de vida saludables y la dependencia. Se utilizó la prueba de McNemar para identificar cambios en el nivel de conocimiento sobre hábitos y estilos de vida. Resultados: Promedio de edad de 68,32 años, predominio del sexo femenino (55,02 %) y con comorbilidades (73,49 %). En el 42,97 % de los sujetos se identificó algún tipo de dependencia, con predominio de la dependencia escasa (45,79 %). Durante el pretest se identificó un nivel de conocimiento bajo en el 63,05 %, durante el postest solo el 15,66 % mantenía un nivel bajo (p= 0,02). Conclusiones: El programa educativo mejora el nivel de conocimiento sobre la importancia de adoptar hábitos y estilos de vida saludables para promocionar la independencia y la autonomía funcional.

Introduction: Aging is a physiological process that generates changes in the health of people over 60 years of age. One of the spheres that is most frequently affected is psychosocial, in which there is loss of independence and functional autonomy. Objective: To evaluate the results of an educational program aimed at promoting independence and functional autonomy. Methods: A quasi-experimental before-after intervention study was carried out. The universe was 697 older adults residing in the rural parishes of the Penipe canton in the Chimborazo province. The sample was made up of 249 elderly people. An educational program was applied for 8 months that included as a variable the level of knowledge about healthy habits and lifestyles and dependency. The McNemar test was used to identify changes in the level of knowledge about habits and lifestyles. Results: Average age of 68.32 years, predominance of female sex (55.02%) and with associated comorbidities (73.49%). Some type of dependency was identified in 42.97% of the subjects, with a predominance of low dependency (45.79%). During the pretest, older adults with a low level of knowledge about healthy habits and lifestyles predominated (63.05%). During the posttest, the average level of knowledge predominated (51.81%). Conclusions: The educational program improves the level of knowledge about the importance of adopting healthy habits and lifestyles to promote independence and functional autonomy.

RESUMO

Fundamento: el carcinoma basocelular es un tumor maligno muy frecuente en el ser humano. Se considera invasivo de forma local, además de agresivo y destructivo. Objetivo: mostrar el comportamiento de los pacientes con carcinoma basocelular diagnosticados por dermatoscopia en consulta de dermatología del Hospital Universitario Miguel Enríquez, entre junio de 2020 y mayo de 2021. Método: se realizó un estudio descriptivo, de corte transversal, para mostrar el comportamiento de los pacientes con carcinoma basocelular que asistieron a la consulta de dermatología del Hospital Universitario Miguel Enríquez en el periodo de junio 2020 a mayo 2021. El universo de estudio se conformó por los pacientes mayores de 18 años que presentaron una o varias lesiones presuntivas de carcinoma basocelular menores de 3 cm de diámetro. Se utilizaron las variables: edad, sexo, fototipo de piel, formas clínicas, patrones dermatoscópicos, topografía de la lesión, ocupación relacionada o no con la exposición solar. Se trabajó con frecuencias absolutas, porcentaje, media, desviación estándar, valores máximos y mínimos, la razón, pruebas de ji-cuadrado y t de student, con significación p≤0,05. Resultados: predominó en ancianos (66,4±14,9 años), en hombres (54,1 %), con fototipo 2 (57,8 %), y en nariz el 33,9 %. La forma nodular fue más frecuente (41,3 %), ocupación expuesta al sol (66,9 %), tamaño promedio de la lesión 1,4 cm. La dermatoscopia mostró predominio de los vasos arborizantes (73,4 %). Por histología se confirmó el 90,8 % de los casos. Conclusiones: predominaron entre los pacientes los ancianos, con fototipo 2. La forma nodular fue más frecuente, el tamaño promedio de la lesión fue de 1,4 cm. La dermatoscopia mostró predominio de los vasos arborizantes. La dermatoscopía resultó ser una herramienta necesaria para el uso sistemático en dermatología.

Foundation: basal cell carcinoma is a very common malignant tumor in humans. It is considered locally invasive, also aggressive and destructive. Objective: to show the behavior of patients with basal cell carcinoma diagnosed by dermoscopy in dermatology clinic of the Miguel Enríquez University Hospital, between June 2020 and May 2021. Method: a descriptive, cross-sectional study was carried out to show the behavior of patients with basal cell carcinoma who attended the dermatology consultation at the Miguel Enríquez University Hospital from June 2020 to May 2021. The universe of study was made up of patients older than 18 years who presented one or more presumptive lesions of basal cell carcinoma less than 3 cm in diameter. The variables used were: age, sex, skin phototype, clinical forms, dermoscopic patterns, topography of the lesion, occupation related or not to sun exposure. We worked with absolute frequencies, percentage, mean, standard deviation, maximum and minimum values, the ratio, chi-square and student's t tests, with significance p≤0.05. Results: it prevailed in the elderly (66.4±14.9 years), in men (54.1 %), with phototype 2 (57.8 %), and in the nose 33.9 %. The nodular form was more frequent (41.3 %), occupation exposed to the sun (66.9 %), average size of the lesion 1.4 cm. Dermoscopy showed a predominance of arborizing vessels (73.4 %). By histology, 90.8 % of the cases were confirmed. Conclusions: the elderly prevailed among the patients, with phototype 2. The nodular form was more frequent, the average size of the lesion was 1.4 cm. Dermoscopy showed a predominance of arborizing vessels. Dermoscopy turned out to be a necessary tool for systematic use in dermatology.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Human papillomavirus (HPV) 16 non-A lineage variants have higher carcinogenic potential for cervical cancer. HPV-16 variants natural history among males is not established. We evaluated HPV-16 variants prevalence and persistence in the external genitalia of men enrolled in the prospective HPV Infection in Men (HIM) Study. METHODS: The HIM Study included men from the United States, Brazil, and Mexico. HPV-16 variants were distinguished using polymerase chain reaction sequencing. The prevalence of HPV-16 variants was assessed, and associations with infection persistence were estimated. RESULTS: We characterized the HPV-16 variants for 1700 genital swab samples from 753 men and 22 external genital lesions in 17 men. The prevalence of HPV-16 lineages differed by country and marital status (P < .001). Overall, 90.9% of participants harbored lineage A variants. The prevalence of non-A lineages was heterogenous among countries. HPV-16 lineage A variants were associated with a 2.69-fold increased risk of long-term persistent infections compared with non-A lineages. All high-grade penile intraepithelial neoplasia harbored lineage A variants and occurred in the context of long-term persistent infections with the same variants. CONCLUSIONS: The prevalence and persistence of HPV-16 variants observed at the male external genitalia suggest differences in the natural history of these variants between men and women, which may be associated with intrinsic differences in the infected genital epithelia.

RESUMO

ABSTRACT BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: In recent history, major catastrophes are followed by economic crisis, which are commonly succeeded by high levels of psychological stress related to financial hardships. The relationship between this financial stress (FS) and musculoskeletal pain (MP) is not elucidated. The aim of this systematic review was to critically evaluate the evidence of the relationship between these financial difficulties and MP. METHODS: A comprehensive search was conducted on the following databases: Medline, LILACS, Scielo and PsycINFO. Studies included were observational, among adults, measuring FS and its association with MP worsening or development, recruiting participants or data from any setting, and providing outcome data for at least one pain outcome measure. RESULTS: 445 potentially relevant citations was identified, which included 438 unique citations, 419 of which did not meet inclusion criteria. Final search included nine studies. The most frequent pain types reported were low back pain and neck pain. Descriptions of financial stress varied. Overall, exposure to financial stress was determined according to some difficulty in relation to afford necessities. All studies, except one, found significant associations between some type of MP and FS. CONCLUSION: This systematic review brought the available data on the relationship between FS and MP. It is possible to state that there is reasonable evidence of FS as a strong predictor for the onset of MP. It is necessary to be aware of this issue when dealing with pain patients during the current humanitarian crisis.

RESUMO JUSTIFICATIVA E OBJETIVOS: Na história recente, grandes catástrofes são seguidas de crises econômicas, que comumente são acompanhadas por altos níveis de estresse psicológico relacionado a dificuldades financeiras. A relação entre esse estresse financeiro (EF) e a dor musculoesquelética (DME) não está elucidada. O objetivo desta revisão sistemática foi avaliar criticamente as evidências da relação entre tais dificuldades financeiras e a DME. MÉTODOS: Uma busca abrangente foi realizada nas seguintes bases de dados: Medline, LILACS, Scielo e PsycINFO. Os estudos incluídos foram observacionais, entre adultos, aferindo o EF e sua associação com a piora ou desenvolvimento de uma DME, recrutando participantes ou dados de qualquer ambiente, e fornecendo dados de resultado para ao menos uma medida de resultado de dor. RESULTADOS: Foram identificadas 445 citações potencialmente relevantes, que incluíram 438 citações únicas, 419 das quais não atenderam aos critérios de inclusão. A pesquisa final incluiu 9 estudos. Os tipos de dor mais frequentes relatados foram lombalgia e cervicalgia. Descrições de estresse financeiro variaram. No geral, a exposição ao estresse financeiro foi determinada de acordo com alguma dificuldade em relação às necessidades de pagamento. Todos os estudos, exceto um, encontraram associações significativas entre algum tipo de DME e EF. CONCLUSÃO: Este estudo trouxe os dados disponíveis sobre a relação entre EF e DME. É possível afirmar que há razoável evidência do EF como um forte preditor para o aparecimento de DME. É preciso estar ciente dessa questão ao lidar com pacientes com dor durante a atual crise humanitária.

RESUMO

Transgênero (trans) é um termo que alberga toda a diversidade de gênero. A incongruência de gênero faz parte desse espectro e refere-se à pessoa cuja identidade de gênero é oposta ao sexo que lhe foi atribuído no nascimento. A terapia hormonal de afirmação de gênero, bem como a cirurgia de afirmação de gênero, é necessária para adequar o corpo ao gênero ao qual a pessoa se identifica. Os homens trans necessitam da terapia com testosterona, que visa reduzir as concentrações de estradiol e incrementar a testosterona circulante para níveis fisiológicos masculinos, resultando em masculinização. A mulher trans receberá o estradiol, associado ou não a um antiandrogênico, visando reduzir a testosterona e incrementar o estrogênio para níveis femininos, resultando em feminização. A cirurgia de afirmação de gênero é, frequentemente, requerida para completar as modificações fenotípicas para o homem e a mulher trans. O ginecologista e obstetra tem um papel crucial no provimento de cuidados a essa população. O presente artigo visa sistematizar algumas ações que o ginecologista e obstetra pode oferecer e que têm potencial para melhorar a qualidade de vida dos homens e mulheres trans. (AU)

Transgenero (trans) is an umbrella term that encompasses all gender diversity. Gender Incongruity is part of this spectrum and refers to the person whose gender identity is opposed to the sex assigned to them at birth. Gender-affirming hormone therapy as well as gender-affirming surgery are necessary to adapt the body to the gender to which the person identifies. Trans men require testosterone therapy to reduce estradiol concentrations and increase circulating testosterone to male physiological levels resulting in masculinization. Trans women will receive estradiol associated or not with an antiandrogenic to reduce testosterone and increase estrogen to female levels resulting in feminization. gender-affirming surgery is often required to complete phenotypic modifications for trans men and women. The gynecologist and obstetrician plays a crucial role in to provide care to this population. This article aims to systematize some actions that the gynecologist and obstetrician can offer to improve the quality of life of trans men and women. (AU)

RESUMO

Context: The effects of androgen therapy on arterial function in transgender men (TM) are not fully understood, particularly concerning long-term androgen treatment. Objective: To evaluate arterial stiffness in TM receiving long-term gender-affirming hormone therapy by carotid-femoral pulse wave velocity (cf-PWV). Methods: A cross-sectional case-control study at the Gender Dysphoria Unit of the Division of Endocrinology, HC-FMUSP, Sao Paulo, Brazil. Thirty-three TM receiving intramuscular testosterone esters as regular treatment for an average time of 14 ± 8 years were compared with 111 healthy cisgender men and women controls matched for age and body mass index. Aortic stiffness was evaluated by cf-PWV measurements using Complior device post-testosterone therapy. The main outcome measure was aortic stiffness by cf-PWV as a cardiovascular risk marker in TM and control group. Results: The cf-PWV after long-term testosterone therapy was significantly higher in TM (7.4 ± 0.9 m/s; range 5.8-8.9 m/s) than in cisgender men (6.6 ± 1.0 m/s; range 3.8-9.0 m/s, P < .01) and cisgender women controls (6.9 ± .9 m/s; range 4.8-9.1 m/s, P = .02). The cf-PWV was significantly and positively correlated with age. Analysis using blood pressure as a covariate showed a significant relationship between TM systolic blood pressure (SBP) and cf-PWV in relation to cisgender women but not to cisgender men. Age, SBP, and diagnosis of hypertension were independently associated with cf-PWV in the TM group. Conclusion: The TM group on long-term treatment with testosterone had higher aging-related aortic stiffening than the control groups. These findings indicate that aortic stiffness might be accelerated in the TM group receiving gender-affirming hormone treatment, and suggest a potential deleterious effect of testosterone on arterial function. Preventive measures in TM individuals receiving testosterone treatment, who are at higher risk for cardiovascular events, are highly recommended.

Introduction: The practice of systematic physical activities favors the control of chronic activities and improves the general health status of older adults; constitutes a priority in care programs for the elderly. Objective: To implement a health intervention in older adults in the Riobamba canton to encourage the practice of systematic physical activities and the control of nutritional status. Methods: Applied research was carried out, with a quasi-experimental and descriptive design that included a total of 527 elderly residents in the Maldonado parish of the Riobamba canton as a universe. The sample was made up of 223 elderlies. A health intervention was applied, with theoretical and practical activities that lasted 7 months. McNemar's non-parametric test was used to identify the presence of statistically significant changes in the different research variables. Result: average age of 67.49 years, with a predominance of female older adults (63.68 %) and with the presence of comorbidities (83.86 %). At the beginning of the investigation, 72.20 % of older adults did not perform physical activities, 41.26% were overweight and the level of knowledge about the importance of physical exercise was low (64.13 %). During the post-test, older adults with normal weight (50.67 %) and with a medium level of knowledge (51.12 %) predominated in relation to the importance of physical activities for maintaining health. Conclusions: The applied health intervention, based on the performance of physical activities, improved the nutritional status and the level of knowledge of the elderly in relation to the importance of practicing systematic physical activities.

RESUMO

INTRODUÇÃO: Os desastres são considerados eventos vitimadores que provocam danos psíquicos e sofrimento às pessoas atingidas e esses casos exigem que os psicólogos estejam cada vez mais preparados para atuar nessas circunstâncias. OBJETIVO: investigar a atuação do psicólogo frente a situações de desastres. A pesquisa se configurou como qualitativa com delineamento de pesquisa de campo. METODOLOGIA: Foram participantes cinco psicólogas com especializações na área de desastres e emergências. O instrumento utilizado para atingir os objetivos da pesquisa foi um roteiro de entrevista semiestruturado composto por sete perguntas semiabertas. As entrevistas foram gravadas em áudio, transcritas na íntegra e analisadas por meio da análise de conteúdo. RESULTADOS: De acordo com os temas abordados pelas participantes, a atuação do psicólogo em desastres é dividida em: pré-desastre, durante o desastre e pós-desastre, o que dependerá do tipo de evento e condições apresentadas; as vítimas devem receber apoio integral, buscando minimizar os danos gerados pela tragédia. Ressalta-se que não é necessária uma atuação apenas depois que o desastre já ocorreu, mas há, além disso, toda uma preparação no prédesastre em locais que possuem maior propensão ao acontecimento destes eventos. CONCLUSÃO: O trabalho do profissional da Psicologia no campo dos desastres é de extrema importância para as vítimas, os parentes das vítimas, a comunidade como um todo e até para os profissionais envolvidos, podendo reduzir o estresse agudo, que é gerado a partir da experiência traumática, priorizando que o sujeito recupere sua capacidade cognitiva de agir e sentir a situação.

INTRODUCTION: Disasters are considered victimizing events that cause psychic damage and suffering to the people affected and these cases require psychologists to be increasingly prepared to act in these circumstances. OBJECTIVE: to investigate the role of the psychologist in the face of disaster situations. The research was configured as qualitative with a field research design. METHODOLOGY: Five psychologists with specializations in the area of disasters and emergencies participated. The instrument used to achieve the research objectives was a semi-structured interview guide composed of seven semi-open questions. The interviews were audio recorded, fully transcribed and analyzed using content analysis. RESULTS: According to the topics addressed by the participants, the psychologist's role in disasters is divided into: pre-disaster, during the disaster and post-disaster, which will depend on the type of event and conditions presented; victims must receive full support, seeking to minimize the damage generated by the tragedy. It is noteworthy that it is not necessary to act only after the disaster has already occurred, but there is, in addition, a whole pre-disaster preparation in places that are more prone to the occurrence of these events. CONCLUSION: The work of the Psychology professional in the field of disasters is extremely important for the victims, the victims' relatives, the community as a whole and even for the professionals involved, and can reduce the acute stress, which is generated from the experience trauma, prioritizing the subject to recover his cognitive ability to act and feel the situation.

El instrumento utilizado para lograr los objetivos de la investigación fue un guión de entrevista semiestructurado compuesto por siete preguntas semiabiertas. Las entrevistas fueron grabadas en audio, transcritas en su totalidad y analizadas mediante análisis de contenido. RESULTADOS: De acuerdo a los temas abordados por los participantes, el rol del psicólogo en desastres se divide en: predesastre, durante el desastre y postdesastre, lo que dependerá del tipo de evento y condiciones que se presenten; las víctimas deben recibir todo el apoyo, buscando minimizar los daños causados por la tragedia. Cabe señalar que no es necesario actuar solo después de que ya haya ocurrido el desastre, sino que existe, además, toda una preparación previa al desastre en los lugares más propensos a la ocurrencia de estos eventos. CONCLUSIÓN: La labor del profesional de la Psicología en el campo de los desastres es sumamente importante para las víctimas, los familiares de las víctimas, la comunidad en su conjunto e incluso para los profesionales involucrados, pudiendo disminuir el estrés agudo, que se genera a partir de la experiencia traumática, priorizando que el sujeto recupere su capacidad cognitiva para actuar y sentir la situación.

RESUMO

O texto reflete sobre as possibilidades criativas do encontro analista-caipira. Apresenta o arquétipo do caipira como uma expressão do ántrophos, ou do arquétipo do homem natural. Considera a energia do arquétipo do caipira como uma expressão instintiva e natural da individuação. Relaciona o arquétipo do caipira com o arquétipo do tolo e da criança enquanto portadores da função inferior da cultura. Apresenta paralelos entre as atitudes do caipira e do analista diante dos mistérios de uma natureza psíquica e propõe essa parceria como propícia ao trabalho clínico. Amplifica os símbolos presentes numa cultura caipira que guardam significados potentes, a serem recuperados no ritual da análise. Aponta para a experiência caipira do arquétipo da totalidade e conclui que a cultura caipira se mantém como uma reserva ecológica da nossa psique.

The text makes a reflection over the creative possibilities when a meeting analyst-rustic man takes place. It presents the archetype of the rustic man as an instinctive and natural expression of individuation. It relates the archetype of the fool and the child, while bears of a lower range culture function. It presents a parallel between the attitudes of the rustic man and those of the analyst in face of the mysteries of a psychic nature and proposes this partnership as adequate for the clinical work. It expands the symbols inherent to a rustic man culture, which encompass potent meaning, to be recuperated at the analysis ritual. It points out a rustic man experience on a total kind archetype and ends up by concluding that the rustic man culture maintains itself as an ecological reserve of our psyche.

El texto reflexiona sobre las posibilidades creativas del encuentro analista-paleto. Presenta el arquetipo "caipira" como expresión del antropos, o arquetipo del hombre natural. Considera la energía del arquetipo paleto como una expresión instintiva y natural de la individuación. Relaciona el arquetipo de lo caipira con el arquetipo del tonto y el niño como portadores de la función inferior de la cultura. Presenta paralelismos entre las actitudes del palurdo y del analista frente a los misterios de naturaleza psíquica y propone esta asociación como conducente al trabajo clínico. Amplifica los símbolos presentes en la cultura de una naturaleza campesina que encierran significados potentes, para ser recuperados en el ritual de análisis. Señala la experiencia caipira del arquetipo de la totalidad y concluye que la cultura caipira sigue siendo una reserva ecológica de nuestra psique.

RESUMO

Macrobenthic organisms are useful bioindicators to assess ecological quality status. On the south-central coast of Peru (13°15.15'S, 76°18.5'W), a Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) marine terminal has been operating since 2010. We investigated the macrobenthic communities and sediment parameters from 2011 to 2020 to evaluate the ecological quality status in the surrounding area of the marine terminal, using the AZTI Marine Biotic Index (AMBI) and its multivariate version (M-AMBI). We analyzed the diversity and community composition of macrobenthic invertebrates and the physico-chemical parameters of the sediment from 29 sampling sites, ranging from 0 to 15m depth. The sampling design considered: the direct influence zone ("DIZ", surroundings of the marine terminal), and northern (NCZ) and southern (SCZ) control zones. Our results indicated that abundance was high at SCZ and decreased with depth. Species richness and diversity were high at DIZ and NCZ, respectively, and increased up to 10m but dropped at 15m. High sand content was recorded in shallow depths, while in deeper areas and DIZ, mud and organic matter increased and redox potential was negative. AMBI indicated a "slightly disturbed" status in general, while M-AMBI indicated "good" or "moderate" status at depths ≤ 12m, and "poor" status at 15m. Overall, the season/year factor was not important, and variables were mostly significantly different across depths. Redox potential and organic matter were correlated with M-AMBI at 15m. In general, our results indicate an acceptable ecological quality surrounding the marine terminal, likely because the study area is not influenced by an important input of an anthropogenic stressor. This study highlights the importance of monitoring benthic communities in the surroundings of human-made structures and the use of ecological quality indices for understanding potential impacts.

RESUMO

Resumo Este artigo tem por objeto o uso de metáforas de virilidade nas ações políticas de ciberativistas de extrema direita. Vamos examinar os ataques trocados entre agentes do mesmo campo da extrema-direita, em particular aqueles dirigidos contra o então presidente Jair Bolsonaro por homens que são seus seguidores e compartilham de seu antifeminismo. Veremos que as metáforas da virilidade têm um papel duplo nessas disputas: como forma de compreender e avaliar tanto adversários e disputas quanto a si mesmos. Esse papel nasce da articulação entre três elementos: i) crenças e atitudes baseadas em um ideal de virilidade; ii) uma experiência vivida de ser e tornar-se homem; e, iii), o modo de funcionamento das plataformas digitais. Argumentamos que existe uma afinidade eletiva entre, de um lado, a forma de socialização masculina definida por Welzer-Lang com seu conceito de "casa dos homens", e, de outro, a arquitetura das plataformas digitais desenhada como um espaço competitivo e anti-institucional no qual se constrói visibilidade e reputação.

Resumen Este artículo se centra en el uso de metáforas de virilidad en las acciones políticas de los ciberactivistas de extrema derecha. Examinaremos los ataques intercambiados entre agentes del mismo campo de extrema derecha, en particular los dirigidos contra el expresidente Jair Bolsonaro por sus seguidores hombres que compartían su antifeminismo. Veremos que las metáforas de la virilidad desempeñan un doble papel en estas disputas: ellas son una forma de entender y evaluar tanto a los oponentes y disputas como a ellos mismos. Este rol nace de la articulación entre tres elementos: i) creencias y actitudes basadas en un ideal de virilidad; ii) una experiencia vivida de ser y devenir hombre; iii) el funcionamiento de las plataformas digitales. Argumentamos que existe una afinidad electiva, por un lado, entre la forma de socialización masculina definida por Welzer-Lang con su concepto de "casa de hombres", y, por otro lado, la arquitectura de plataformas digitales que se diseña como un espacio competitivo y anti-institucional donde se construye visibilidad y reputación.

Abstract This article focuses on the use of virility metaphors in the political actions of far-right cyberactivists. It examines the attacks exchanged between agents within the far-right, in particular those targeted against Jair Bolsonaro, Brazilian president from 2019 to 2022, by his male followers who share his anti-feminism. It is argued that, in these disputes, metaphors of virility have a dual role: they are a way of interpreting and of evaluating opponents, disputes and men themselves. This role results from the articulation between three elements: i) beliefs and attitudes based on an ideal of virility; ii) a lived experience of being and becoming a man; and, iii), how digital platforms operate. Our hypothesis is that there is an elective affinity between, on the one hand, the form of male socialisation defined as the "men's house" by Welzer-Lang and, on the other hand, the architecture of digital platforms designed as a competitive, anti-institutional environment in which visibility and reputation are built.

RESUMO

Resumen El milium coloide (MC) es un trastorno de depósito cutáneo poco común, asociado a cambios degenerativos secundarios a la radiación ultravioleta, que provoca degeneración de las fibras elásticas en la dermis. Tiene dos formas de presentación definidas como juvenil y del adulto. Es más común en hombres que realizan oficios al aire libre. Clínicamente se caracteriza por numerosas y pequeñas pápulas de distintos colores (amarillo, ámbar, café) o translúcidas, que suelen agruparse y se localizan en zonas fotoexpuestas. El diagnóstico se confirma mediante el estudio histopatológico y pudiera requerir tinciones especiales para diferenciar la mucina y el amiloide. Para su tratamiento se han empleado técnicas como dermoabrasión mecánica, láseres, terapia fotodinámica, entre otros.

Abstract Colloid milium is a rare skin deposition disorder associated with degenerative changes secondary to ultraviolet radiation, which causes degeneration of elastic fibers in the dermis. It has two forms of presentation defined as juvenile and adult. It is more common in men who work outdoors. Clinically it is characterized by numerous small yellow, brown, amber or translucent papules that are usually grouped together, located over photo-exposed areas. The diagnosis is confirmed by histopathological study and may require special stains to differentiate mucin and amyloid. Techniques such as mechanical dermabrasion, lasers, photodynamic therapy, among others, have been used for its treatment.
