RESUMO

BACKGROUND: The Self-Assessment Manikin (SAM), a pictorial scale for the measurement of pleasure and arousal dimensions of emotions, is one of the most applied tools in the emotion research field. OBJECTIVE: We present a detailed description of a remote method to collect affective ratings in response to pictures by using the SAM scale. METHODS: To empirically validate our remote method, we conducted a study using a digitized version of the SAM scale and delivered online didactic instructions that followed the normative rating procedure for the International Affective Picture System (IAPS) to the participants. We presented 70 pictures from the IAPS and an additional set of 22 food pictures to the participants. RESULTS: We found strong correlations between the ratings of IAPS pictures obtained in our sample and those reported by North American and Brazilian participants in previous in-person studies that applied the same pictures and methodology. We were also able to obtain an additional standardized set of food pictures. CONCLUSION: The protocols described here may be useful for researchers interested in collecting remotely valid and reliable affecting ratings.

RESUMO

INTRODUCTION: Quality of life in terms of voice and musculoskeletal symptoms can be affected, especially at the end of pregnancy when major physical changes occur. OBJECTIVE: To analyze the results of vocal self-assessment and musculoskeletal symptoms of pregnant women in the second and third trimester. METHODS: Forty-nine pregnant women in the second and third trimester aged between 18 and 40years were examined using the Nordic Musculoskeletal Questionnaire and the Voice-Related Quality of Life Questionnaire. The data were statistically analyzed using the R environment (R Core Team, 2019) with parametric (Student's t, chi-square, and Wald) and nonparametric (Mann-Whitney and Wilcoxon) tests, taking into account a nominal significance level of 5%. RESULTS: Voice-related quality of life: mean total score and socio-emotional domain significantly within the normal values; physical domain significantly below the normal value; larger number of pregnant women significantly below the normal value in the physical domain. Nordic Musculoskeletal Questionnaire: most of the examined aspects showed a significant negative response; there was a positive significance for the presence of pain and tingling in the lower back; pregnant women with musculoskeletal complaints and impairments showed a significant decrease in the three domains of voice-related quality of life, mainly in the physical domain. CONCLUSION: Pregnant women showed a deterioration in the physical domain of voice-related quality of life and the presence of pain and tingling in the lower back. Pregnant women who had discomfort and musculoskeletal impairments also showed a deterioration in voice-related quality of life, mainly in the physical domain.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: To determine whether the association between tobacco advertising (TA) exposure and poor self-rated oral health (SROH) is mediated through secondhand smoke (SHS) exposure in Brazilian adults who have never smoked. METHODS: Secondary cross-sectional analysis of The Brazilian National Health Survey 2019 data. The daily, weekly, or monthly exposure to SHS at home or at work was set as the mediator. Mediation analysis within a counterfactual approach used adjusted binary logistic regressions for both poor SROH and SHS exposure, to estimate the natural direct effect (NDE), natural indirect effect (NIE) through SHS exposure, and marginal total effect (MTE) of TA exposure on poor SROH. To assess the robustness of the results, we calculated the E-value for the MTE. RESULTS: The sample comprised 53,295 never smoker adults. The MTE of TA exposure on poor SROH was 1.09 (1.03, 1.16), with the indirect effect through SHS exposure responsible for only 16.6% of the total (NIE: 1.01 [1.01, 1.02] and NDE: 1.08 [1.02, 1.14]). An effect of 1.42 would be required for an unmeasured confounder to explain away the association between TA and SROH. CONCLUSION: More individuals exposed to TA have poor SROH than those unexposed, with secondhand smoke exposure explaining only a small portion of this effect. Upstream tobacco policies should consider oral health outcomes.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the relationship between oral health status, self-perception of oral health, and depression. METHODS: This cross-sectional study included 2953 individuals that were ≥ 18 years of age and participated in the Chilean National Health Survey (NHS), 2016-2017. Information on oral, dental, and mental health, and the presence or absence of depressive symptoms was collected. Secondary data analysis was carried out using STATA and included logistic regression models adjusted for sex, age, and educational level. The analyses factored in the expansion weights to estimate representative prevalences of the entire population. RESULTS: Participants experiencing frequent dental or prosthesis-related discomfort while speaking (OR: 1.57; 95% CI: 1.01-2.43) were related with exhibiting suspected depression. Removable upper denture users were at a higher risk of exhibiting suspected (OR: 2.04; 95% CI: 1.11-3.74) than those not using them. Participants diagnosed with depression in the past 12 months had a similar number of teeth (median = 24) compared to those without depression (median = 25) (OR: 0.99; 95% CI: 0.96-1.02). CONCLUSION: Experiencing dental or prosthesis-related difficulties in speaking is related to suspected depression or a diagnosis of depression. These findings highlight the importance of developing comprehensive healthcare approaches that consider mental health in the context of oral health.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: To determine whether different alcohol intake dimensions: average alcohol volume consumed (AVC), binge drinking (BD), and alcohol-related consequences (ARC) are associated with self-rated oral health (SROH). METHODS: Secondary cross-sectional analysis of The Brazilian National Health Survey of 2019 data. BD was considered when an individual reported a past-month heavy drinking episode. ARC referred to experiences such as past-year blackouts, concerns from others, or failure in routine activities. Adjusted multivariate Poisson regression models with robust variance were employed to calculate the prevalence ratios (PR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) of SROH across the entire sample and stratified by sex and age. RESULTS: The sample comprised 88,531 participants aged 18 years or older. Individuals experiencing at least one past-year ARC had an 11% (95% CI: 1.07, 1.15) higher prevalence of poor SROH than their abstainers' counterparts. Associations were more pronounced among men aged less than 50 (PR = 1.09; 95% CI: 1.03, 1.15) and women aged 50 years or more (PR = 1.15; 95% CI: 1.01, 1.30). CONCLUSION: Alcohol-related consequences predicted poor SROH. Oral health inquiries should include the screening for ARC in addition to traditional measurements of AVC or BD, since such exposures may not fully capture the role of alcohol on oral health impairment.

RESUMO

RESUMO Objetivo Traduzir e adaptar de forma transcultural o Iranian Voice Quality of Life Profile (IVQLP) para o português brasileiro (PB). Método O processo de adaptação transcultural foi realizado por meio de cinco etapas: tradução do IVQLP para o PB por três especialistas nativos do PB e fluentes no inglês americano; elaboração de uma versão de consenso; retrotradução por um especialista nativo do inglês americano e fluente no PB; análise por um comitê de cinco especialistas e elaboração da versão final do instrumento em PB, denominado IVQLP-Br; e pré-teste. O IVQLP-Br tem o objetivo de avaliar os impactos da voz de uma forma mais abrangente, englobando vários domínios da vida dos indivíduos, apresenta 43 itens e uma chave de respostas de cinco pontos. Para o pré-teste foi acrescida como opção para o respondente a alternativa "não aplicável". Participaram do pré-teste 36 indivíduos adultos com risco autorrelatado para disfonia. Resultados Na etapa de tradução 10 itens foram modificados e na retrotradução, 15 itens necessitaram de ajustes. Nenhum item precisou ser reformulado após a aplicação na população-alvo, pois a opção "não aplicável" apareceu em doze respostas, porém, sem significância estatística. Conclusão Conclui-se que a versão traduzida do IVQLP para o PB, denominado IVQLP-Br, apresentou equivalência transcultural e pode ser utilizada para uma análise mais detalhada do impacto da voz nos diferentes domínios da vida dos indivíduos. Após a validação, o IVQLP-Br poderá contribuir tanto para a prática clínica, quanto para pesquisas com falantes do PB.


ABSTRACT Purpose To cross-culturally adapt the Voice Quality of Life Profile (IVQLP) into Brazilian Portuguese (BP). Methods The cross-cultural adaptation process was performed in five stages: translation of the IVQLP into BP by three native BP experts fluent in American English; preparation of a consensus version; back-translation by a native American English expert fluent in BP; analysis by a committee of five experts and preparation of the final version of the instrument in BP, which was named IVQLP-Br; and pre-testing. The IVQLP-Br aims to assess the impacts of the voice more comprehensively, encompassing various areas of an individual's life. It has 43 items and a five-level response key. For the pre-test, the alternative "not applicable" was added as a response option. Thirty-six adults with self-reported risk of dysphonia participated in the pre-test. Results In the translation stage, ten items were modified, and during the back-translation, 15 items required adjustments. No questions required reformulation after the application of the IVQLP-Br in the target population, because the option "not applicable" appeared in 12 responses without statistical significance. Conclusion The version of the IVQLP translated into BP, named the IVQLP-Br, exhibited cross-cultural equivalence and was administrable for a more detailed analysis of the impact of the voice in different domains of an individual's life. After validation, the IVQLP-Br will be able to contribute both to clinical practice and to research with BP speakers.

RESUMO

Abstract Objective: To assess the prevalence and factors associated with poor self-rated health according to respondents' sex in Manaus, Brazil. Methods: This was a cross-sectional population-based study with adults in Manaus in 2019. Adjusted prevalence ratios and 95% confidence intervals (95%CI) were calculated using Poisson regression following a hierarchical model. Results: Poor self-rated health occurred in 35.2% (95%CI 33.3;37.2) of the 2,321 participants and was higher in females (PR = 1.27; 95%CI 1.13;1.43). In the general population, among both sexes, poor self-rated health was higher among the oldest, those with moderate and severe food insecurity and with chronic diseases (p-value < 0.05). Among females, poor health was also higher among the evangelical and those with mild food insecurity. Among males, self-rated health was also poorer among the retired and those with education below elementary level (p-value < 0.001). Conclusion: The female sex had the poorest health rating, influenced by morbidity and access to food.


Resumen Objetivo: Analizar la prevalencia y los factores asociados a la mala autoevaluación de salud según sexo en Manaus, Brasil. Métodos: Se trata de un estudio poblacional transversal con adultos residentes en Manaus en 2019. Las razones de prevalencia ajustadas (RP) y los intervalos de confianza del 95% (IC95%) se calcularon mediante regresión jerárquica de Poisson. Resultados: Autoevaluación mala de salud ocurrió en 35,2% (IC95% 33,3;37,2) de los 2.321 participantes y fue mayor en el sexo femenino (RP = 1,27; IC95%1,13;1,43). En la población general, femenina y masculina, la mala autoevaluación de salud fue mayor entre ancianos, con inseguridad alimentaria moderada y grave y con enfermedades crónicas (p-valor < 0,05). En el sexo femenino, la mala salud fue mayor en evangélicas y con inseguridad alimentaria leve. En el sexo masculino, jubilados y con educación inferior al nivel básico también tuvieron una peor autoevaluación (p-valor < 0,001). Conclusión: Personas de sexo femenino tuvieron una peor valoración de salud, influenciada por la morbilidad y el acceso a la alimentación.

RESUMO

As habilidades sociais têm importante papel na vida escolar e profissional. Este estudo, de natureza descritiva e correlacional, analisa os efeitos de um Curso de extensão intitulado "Imersão na Universidade: você protagonista do seu futuro", sobre as habilidades sociais de estudantes do Ensino Médio da rede pública. Para tanto, aplicou-se o Inventário de Habilidades Sociais em Adolescentes (IHSA-DelPrette) no momento inicial e três meses após o término do curso, considerando dois indicadores: (1) frequência e (2) dificuldade com que reagiam às diferentes demandas de interação social. Verificou-se diferença estatisticamente significante entre os escores pré e pós intervenção (p = 0,014), evidenciando aumento da frequência das habilidades. Para a dificuldade não foi observada diferença significante, embora tenha ocorrido uma diminuição de 13,45%. A universidade pode ser um espaço não apenas para capacitação analítica e instrumental, mas para o desenvolvimento interpessoal tanto da comunidade interna quanto externa.

Social skills play an important role in school and professional life. This descriptive and correlational study analyzes the effects of an extension course entitled "Immersion in the University: you are the protagonist of your future", about the social skills of High School students in public schools. To this end, the Inventory of Social Skills in Adolescents (IHSA-DelPrette) was applied at the beginning and three months after the end of the course, considering two indicators: (1) assiduity and (2) difficulties they had when handling the different demands of social interaction. There was a statistically significant difference between the pre and post intervention scores (p = 0.014), showing an increase in the frequency of skills. For difficulty, no significant difference was observed, although there was a decrease of 13.45%. The university can be a space not only for analytical and instrumental training, but for the interpersonal development of both the internal and external community.

RESUMO

ABSTRACT Objective The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of a self-assessment questionnaire for hirsutism using the latest cutoff values recommended by the Endocrine Society (ES) for Latin-American women and by the European Society for Human Reproduction and Embryology (ESHRE). Subject and methods Female premenopausal outpatients (n = 188) completed a self-assessment questionnaire, scoring hair presence across the nine areas evaluated by the modified Ferriman-Gallwey (mFG) scale. The results were compared with clinician-assessed scores rated independently by two trained physicians. Scores in the Hirsuta questionnaire, derived from self-assessment of five areas of the mFG scale, were also evaluated. Results The ethnic composition of the sample was as follows: 23.1% white, 25.8% black, 48.9% mixed, and 2.1% other backgrounds (Indigenous, Asian). The participants had age and BMI of (mean ± standard deviation) 33.7 ± 9.9 years and 29.8 ± 7.21 kg/m2, respectively. The most common areas of excessive hair growth were the chin, upper and lower abdomen, and thighs. Relative to clinician-assessed mFG scores, self-assessed mFG scores had an accuracy of 80% using ES criteria for hirsutism diagnosis, with a sensitivity of 95.45%, specificity of 56.25%, positive predictive value of 30.10%, and negative predictive value of 98.40%. Self-assessed mFG had lower accuracy (71%) for diagnosing hirsutism when the ESHRE criteria were applied. Conclusions Self-assessed mFG had low specificity, limiting its application. The results of this study do not support the use of the self-assessed mFG or Hirsuta scores for diagnosing hirsutism in a clinical setting, although both scoring systems may be useful for screening hirsutism in epidemiological studies.

RESUMO

Resumo Objetivo Desenvolver e realizar a validação de conteúdo de um instrumento de autoavaliação da qualidade do cuidado em Instituições de Longa Permanência para Idosos (ILPI), denominado QualificaILPI. Método Estudo metodológico realizado entre março e dezembro de 2021. O instrumento foi desenvolvido com base em modelo multidimensional de qualidade, legislação brasileira e pesquisa bibliográfica e contém padrões de qualidade para autoavaliação das ILPI nas dimensões: ambiente, lar, cuidado, envolvimento familiar e da comunidade, equipe de trabalho e gestão. Cada padrão é descrito e seguido por uma escala, com parâmetros para classificar o nível de qualidade da ILPI em incipiente, intermediário, consolidado. A Técnica Delphi modificada foi empregada para validação por um comitê de 10 especialistas quanto a pertinência do padrão para avaliação da qualidade da ILPI, da adequação dos objetivos e da escala de avaliação, clareza, podendo fazer comentários. O padrão foi mantido quando houve 75% de concordância entre os especialistas. O instrumento foi também avaliado pelo público-alvo, constituído por coordenadores de 10 ILPI, selecionadas por conveniência. Resultados No primeiro ciclo de avaliação, foram excluídos três padrões e dois novos foram criados. No segundo, alterou-se a dimensão de um padrão e dois padrões foram unidos. Ao final, permaneceram 29 padrões divididos em seis dimensões. O público-alvo, gestores de ILPI, sugeriu alterações na redação de alguns padrões. Houve consenso de 80% ou superior em todos os padrões. Conclusão O QualificaILPI poderá contribuir para o monitoramento das ILPI favorecendo a melhoria do cuidado ofertado aos residentes.


Abstract Objective To develop and validate the content of a self-assessment instrument for the quality of care in Long-Term Care Facilities for Older Adults (Instituições de Longa Permanência para Idosos - ILPIs), named QualificaILPI. Method A methodological study conducted between March and December 2021. The instrument was developed based on a multidimensional quality model, Brazilian legislation, and literature research. It contains quality standards for self-assessment of ILPIs in the dimensions of environment, home, care, family and community involvement, work team, and management. Each standard is described and followed by a scale with parameters to classify the level of ILPI quality as incipient, intermediate, or consolidated. The modified Delphi Technique was employed for validation by a committee of 10 experts regarding the relevance of the standard for ILPI quality assessment, the appropriateness of objectives, the evaluation scale, and clarity, allowing for comments. The standard was retained when there was 75% agreement among the experts. The instrument was also evaluated by the target audience, consisting of coordinators from 10 ILPIs selected for convenience. Results In the first assessment cycle, three standards were excluded, and two new ones were created. In the second cycle, the dimension of one standard was changed, and two standards were combined. In the end, 29 standards remained, divided into six dimensions. The target audience, ILPI managers, suggested changes in the wording of some standards. There was a consensus of 80% or higher for all standards. Conclusion QualificaILPI has the potential to contribute to monitoring ILPIs, promoting the improvement of care offered to residents.

RESUMO

Objetivo: Los trastornos de la voz son muy frecuentes en la población pediátrica, entre el 6% y el 23% de todos los niños presentan alguna forma de disfonía. La evaluación de la voz abarca los aspectos perceptuales, análisis acústico, métodos de diagnóstico visual, y cuestionarios que orientan al impacto sobre la calidad de vida. El objetivo de nuestro estudio es realizar la traducción, transculturalización y validación del cuestionario Children Voice Handicap Index (CVHI) a hispanohablantes latinoamericanos. Material y Método: El estudio se realizó en el Hospital Italiano de Buenos Aires, Argentina y en el Hospital de Niños Dr. Luis Calvo Mackenna de Santiago de Chile. Se incluyeron pacientes entre 8 y 15 años de edad. Se tradujo, transculturalizó y validó el CVHI para dicha población. Se realizó el cuestionario en dos grupos de pacientes: un grupo de niños con antecedentes de disfonías, n = 48 y el otro grupo pacientes de control, sin patología de la voz, n = 86. El cuestionario se aplicó a los niños, en presencia de sus cuidadores o padres, con la correspondiente conformidad. Resultados: Se encontró una diferencia significativa entre ambos grupos (p < 0,05) con una confianza interna óptima de 0,98 obtenida mediante alfa de Cronbach y una alta fiabilidad test-retest (correlación de Pearson = 0,96). Conclusión: La validación y transculturalización del CVHI para la población hispanohablante de latinoamérica presentó una adecuada validez y fiabilidad. Complementar la evaluación de la patología vocal con un sencillo cuestionario de auto-rrealización en población pediátrica, constituye una valiosa herramienta que completa el diagnóstico del impacto de la alteración de la voz en la calidad de vida.


Aim: Voice disorders are very common in the pediatric population, since between 6% and 23% of all children present some type of dysphonia. Voice evaluation includes perceptual aspects, acoustic analysis, visual diagnostic methods, and questionnaires that guide the impact on quality of life. The objective of this study is to carry out the translation, transculturalization and validation of the Children Voice Handicap Index (CVHI) questionnaire for Latin American Spanish speakers. Material and Method: The study was conducted at the Italian Hospital in Buenos Aires, Argentina and at the Dr. Luis Calvo Mackenna Children's Hospital in Santiago de Chile, Chile. Patients between 8 and 15 years of age were included. The CVHI was translated, transculturalized, and validated for said population. The questionnaire was carried out in two groups of patients: a group of children with a history of dysphonia, n = 48, and the other group, control patients, without voice pathology, n = 86. The questionnaire was applied to the children, in the presence of their caregivers or parents, with the corresponding consent. Results: A significant difference was found between both groups (p < 0.05) with an optimal internal confidence of 0.98 obtained using Cronbach's alpha and high test-retest reliability (Pearson's correlation = 0.96). Conclusion: The validation and transculturalization of the CVHI for the Spanish-speaking population of Latin America presented adequate validity and reliability. Complementing the evaluation of vocal pathology with a simple self-administration questionnaire in the pediatric population constitutes a valuable tool that completes the diagnosis of the impact of voice alteration on quality of life.

RESUMO

Objective Training a competent physician requires to direct the resident profile of graduate students for practice activities. We sought to identify the doctor-patient relationship orientation and the self-assessment of the core competencies, which they pointed out needed to be developed. Methods All 56 orthopedic residents admitted between 2016 and 2019 participated in the present prospective observational study. The Patient Practitioner Orientation Scale (PPOS) and a self-assessment questionnaire were answered at the beginning and end of the first year of residency (R1) in Orthopedics and Traumatology. We calculated mean and standard deviation for PPOS items and scores and analyzed them through the paired t-test. Self-Assessment Questionnaire answer options were "yes" or "I need to improve it" and skills were classified in decreasing order of the frequency of "I need to improve it" responses with description of absolute number and percentage. We compared frequencies using Fisher Test. P-values < 0.05 were considered statistically significant. GraphPad Prism 8.4.3 (GraphPad Software, San Diego, CA, USA) and Microsoft Excel (Microsoft Corporation, Redmond, WA, USA) were used for statistical analysis. Results In the period between the beginning and the end of R1, the total PPOS mean score significantly decreased from 4.63 to 4.50 ( p = 0.024), more biomedical-focused. Around one-third of the residents identified competencies of patient care, practice-based learning and improvement, and interpersonal and communication skills as needed to improve. Conclusions The PPOS and self-assessment activities could promote reflection practices and are possible tools for learner-centered competency assessment. Biomedical guidance tends to prevail as the training of physicians progresses, and periodic self-assessments can be worked on to build a growth mindset.

A autopercepção da saúde é considerada um importante indicador das condições de saúde por se basear em critérios subjetivos e objetivos e por sua capacidade preditora de morbimortalidade, sendo, portanto, utilizada como instrumento norteador de ações de promoção da saúde. Objetivou-se estimar a prevalência de autopercepção negativa da saúde e sua associação com fatores sociodemográficos, de saúde e de comportamento em usuários da Atenção Primária à Saúde. Trata-se de um estudo transversal realizado em Passo Fundo, RS, entre maio e agosto de 2019, com adultos e idosos em atendimento na Atenção Primária à Saúde. Calculou-se a prevalência do desfecho, com intervalo de confiança de 95% (IC95) e as Razões de Prevalência (RP) brutas e ajustadas, visando identificar os fatores associados. A amostra foi de 1.443 participantes, com prevalência do desfecho de 47% (IC95 44-49), sendo esta maior entre mulheres, idosos, portadores de multimorbidade, com dor crônica, polimedicados, com insônia, em tratamento psicológico e com autopercepção negativa da alimentação. Por outro lado, os usuários com no mínimo o ensino superior, brancos, não tabagistas e aqueles com hábitos alimentares inadequados estiveram menos associados ao desfecho. Conclui-se que a alta prevalência de autopercepção negativa da saúde e os fatores associados reforçam a necessidade da atenção por parte dos profissionais de saúde para a promoção de intervenções específicas e efetivas nessa população.


Self-perceived health is considered an important indicator of health conditions because it is based on subjective and objective criteria and because of its predictive capacity for morbidity and mortality, therefore, it is used as a guiding instrument for health promotion actions. The objective of this study was to estimate the prevalence of negative self-rated health and its association with sociodemographic, health and behavioral factors in users of Primary Health Care. It was about a cross-sectional study carried out in Passo Fundo, RS, between May and August 2019, with adults and elderly people cared for at the Primary Health Care. The prevalence of the outcome was calculated, with a 95% confidence interval (CI95) and the crude and adjusted Prevalence Ratios (PR) in order to identify the associated factors. The sample consisted of 1,443 participants, with an outcome prevalence of 47% (CI95 44-49), which was higher among women, elderly, multimorbidity patients, with chronic pain, polymedicated, with insomnia, undergoing psychological treatment and with self-perception negative food. On the other hand, users with at least higher education, whites, non-smokers and those with inadequate eating habits were less predisposed to the outcome. It is concluded that the high prevalence of negative self-perception of health and associated factors reinforce the need for attention by health professionals to promote specific and effective interventions in this population.

RESUMO

Introdução: O sono é uma função vital e essencial para a sobrevivência humana e tem por objetivo favorecer o reparo corporal e mental. Objetivo: Investigar os fatores associados à autopercepção sobre a qualidade do sono, bem como possíveis alterações das estruturas orofaciais e funções estomatognáticas em indivíduos com queixa de ronco. Material e Método: Trata-se de estudo observacional, analítico e transversal, realizado com 30 indivíduos adultos com queixa de ronco durante o sono, com idade média de 45 anos e 5 meses. Para a avaliação de motricidade oromiofuncional foi utilizado o protocolo AMIOFE. Foram aplicados questionários para investigação do ronco e qualidade de sono dos participantes: Questionário de Berlin, Escala de Sonolência de Epworth e Questionário de qualidade de sono de Pittsburgh. Resultados: Os resultados do questionário de Pittsburgh indicaram disfunção na qualidade do sono em 66,67% dos participantes. A sonolência diurna foi evidenciada em 33,33%, por meio da Escala de Epworth. 60% dos participantes apresentaram alto risco para AOS, por meio dos escores obtidos no instrumento de Berlin. Indivíduos que não praticam exercício físico e com posição habitual de língua no assoalho bucal apresentaram maiores escores no questionário de Berlin. Houve correlação positiva estatisticamente significante e moderada entre as variáveis Índice de massa corporal (IMC) e os escores do Questionário de Berlin. Conclusão: Indivíduos com queixa de ronco apresentam dificuldades relacionadas à qualidade do sono. A autopercepção negativa de qualidade do sono teve relação com dados de motricidade orofacial, hábitos alimentares, composição corporal e hábitos de estilo de vida. (AU)


Introduction: Sleep is a vital and essential function for human survival and aims to promote bodily and mental repair. Objective: To investigate factors associated with self-perception of sleep quality, as well as possible alterations in orofacial structures and stomatognathic functions in individuals with snoring complaints. Material and Method: Observational, analytical and cross-sectional study, conducted with 30 adult individuals complaining of snoring during sleep, with a mean age of 45 years and 5 months. For the evaluation of orofacial myofunctional motricity, the (AMIOFE) was used. Questionnaires were applied to investigate the snoring and sleep quality of the participants: Berlin Questionnaire, Epworth Sleepiness Scale and Pittsburg Sleep Quality Index Questionnaire. Results: The Pittsburgh questionnaire results indicated sleep quality dysfunction in 66.67% of participants. Daytime sleepiness was evidenced in 33.33%, using the Epworth Scale. 60% of the participants presented high risk for obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSA), through the scores obtained in the Berlin questionnaire. Individuals who do not practice physical exercise and with usual tongue position on the oral floor presented higher scores in the Berlin questionnaire. There was a statistically significant and moderate positive correlation between the variables Body Mass Index (BMI) and the Berlin questionnaire scores. Conclusion: Individuals complaining of snoring self-reported difficulties related to sleep quality. The sleep quality difficulties self-reported were related to data on orofacial motricity, eating habits, body composition and lifestyle habits. (AU)

RESUMO

Abstract Introduction Tinnitus is a prevalent condition among many different populations. Since tinnitus is subjective, self-report questionnaires are one way of assessing how much the condition interferes with the quality of life of an individual. Objective The aim of the present study was to translate and cross-culturally adapt the Skarzynski Tinnitus Scale (STS) into Brazilian Portuguese and validate its psychometric properties. Methods The STS was translated and cross-culturally adapted using five main steps. Fifty-eight individuals who had continuous tinnitus were invited to complete the questionnaire. Pure tone audiometry (air and bone conduction) were also done. Results No major changes were necessary in translating the scale. The overall score was 1.3 (range 0-4). Internal consistency was tested by Cronbach α, which ranged from 0.54 to 0.85. Differences between genders and between subscales and the total score were not significant. A statistically significant difference was only found in the coping subscale, in which normal hearing subjects had higher scores than those with hearing loss. Conclusion The translation and adaptation of the STS established linguistic and cultural equivalence with the original. In addition, it exhibited good internal consistency. Our results suggest that the STS is suitable for use in a clinical setting.

RESUMO

Abstract Objective Training a competent physician requires to direct the resident profile of graduate students for practice activities. We sought to identify the doctor-patient relationship orientation and the self-assessment of the core competencies, which they pointed out needed to be developed. Methods All 56 orthopedic residents admitted between 2016 and 2019 participated in the present prospective observational study. The Patient Practitioner Orientation Scale (PPOS) and a self-assessment questionnaire were answered at the beginning and end of the first year of residency (R1) in Orthopedics and Traumatology. We calculated mean and standard deviation for PPOS items and scores and analyzed them through the paired t-test. Self-Assessment Questionnaire answer options were "yes" or "I need to improve it" and skills were classified in decreasing order of the frequency of "I need to improve it" responses with description of absolute number and percentage. We compared frequencies using Fisher Test. P-values < 0.05 were considered statistically significant. GraphPad Prism 8.4.3 (GraphPad Software, San Diego, CA, USA) and Microsoft Excel (Microsoft Corporation, Redmond, WA, USA) were used for statistical analysis. Results In the period between the beginning and the end of R1, the total PPOS mean score significantly decreased from 4.63 to 4.50 (p= 0.024), more biomedical-focused. Around one-third of the residents identified competencies of patient care, practice-based learning and improvement, and interpersonal and communication skills as needed to improve. Conclusions The PPOS and self-assessment activities could promote reflection practices and are possible tools for learner-centered competency assessment. Biomedical guidance tends to prevail as the training of physicians progresses, and periodic self-assessments can be worked on to build a growth mindset.


Resumo Objetivo A formação de um médico competente requer direcionar o perfil de pós-graduação residente para atividades práticas. Buscou-se identificar a orientação de relacionamento médico-paciente e a autoavaliação das competências fundamentais que eles apontaram que precisavam ser desenvolvidas. Métodos Todos os 56 residentes em ortopedia admitidos entre 2016 e 2019 participaram do presente estudo observacional prospectivo. A Escala de Orientação Médico-Paciente (Patient Practitioner Orientation Scale [PPOS, na sigla em inglês]) e um questionário de autoavaliação foram respondidos no início e no final do primeiro ano de residência (R1) em Ortopedia e Traumatologia. Calculamos o desvio médio e padrão para itens e pontuações de PPOS e os analisamos através do teste t emparelhado. As opções de resposta do Questionário de Autoavaliação foram "sim" ou "preciso melhorar" e as habilidades foram classificadas na ordem decrescente da frequência das respostas "preciso melhorar" com descrição de número absoluto e percentual. Comparamos frequências usando o teste de Fisher. Consideramos significativos valores-p < 0,05. Os programas GraphPad Prism 8.4.3 (GraphPad Software, San Diego, CA, EUA) e Microsoft Excel (Microsoft Corporation, Redmond, WA, EUA) foram utilizados para análise estatística. Resultados No período entre o início e o final do R1, a média total de PPOS diminuiu significativamente, de 4,63 para 4,50 (p= 0,024), mais focada em biomédica. Cerca de um terço dos residentes identificou competências do cuidado ao paciente, aprendizagem e melhoria baseadas na prática e habilidades interpessoais e de comunicação, como necessitando melhorar. Conclusões As atividades de PPOS e autoavaliação podem promover práticas de reflexão e são possíveis ferramentas para avaliação de competência centrada no aluno. A orientação biomédica tende a prevalecer à medida que a formação dos médicos progride e as autoavaliações periódicas podem ser trabalhadas para construir uma mentalidade de crescimento.

RESUMO

This study ai ms to verify and analyze the existence of cognitive dissonance in the self-assessment of health by individuals in Brazil, that is, the difference between self-rated health and the health status of individuals. To accomplish this, we use data from the 2013 National Health Survey, which collected the self-assessments that individuals made of their health and information about their health status. This information was used to build indices that seek to represent a person's health status in relation to chronic illnesses, physical and mental well-being, eating habits and lifestyle. To identify the presence of cognitive dissonance, the CUB (Combination of a discrete Uniform and shifted Binomial distributions) model was used, which relates self-assessed health with the developed indices. Cognitive dissonance was identified in self-assessed health in relation to eating habits and lifestyle, and this dissonance may be associated with a present bias in the self-assessment of health in Brazil.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Perceived health is a well-known, low-cost measure in public health, and has been used in several studies on individuals with impairment. Although many studies have related impairment to self-rated health (SRH), few have considered the origin and degree of limitation of the impairment. This study examined whether physical, hearing, or visual impairments-when analyzed according to origin (congenital or acquired) and degree of limitation (with or without)-are associated with the SRH status. METHODS: This cross-sectional study used data of 43,681 adult individuals from the Brazilian National Health Survey (NHS, 2013). The outcome SRH was dichotomized into poor (including the regular, poor, and very poor responses) or good (including the good and very good responses). Crude and adjusted (for socio-demographic characteristics and chronic diseases history) prevalence ratios (PR) estimates were evaluated using Poisson regression models with the robust variance estimator. RESULTS: Poor SRH prevalence was estimated at 31.8% (95%CI:31.0-33.0) among the non-impaired population, 65.6% (95%CI:60.6-70.0) among individuals with physical impairment, 50.3% (95%CI:45.0-56.0) for people with hearing impairment, and 55.3% (95%CI:51.8-59.0) for the visually impaired. Individuals with congenital physical impairment-with or without limitations-presented the strongest association with the poorest SRH status. Participants with non-limiting, congenital hearing impairment showed a protective factor to poor SRH (PR = 0.40 95%CI: 0.38-0.52). Individuals with acquired visual impairment with limitations demonstrated the strongest association with poor SRH (PR = 1.48 95%CI:1.47-1.49). Among the impaired population, middle-aged participants showed a stronger association with poor SRH than older adult participants. CONCLUSIONS: Impairment is associated with poor SRH status, especially among people with physical impairment. The origin and degree of limitation of each type of impairment differently impacts SRH among the impaired population.
