Encontrar un nuevo significado a través de la música después de un intento de suicidio

Listening to music can trigger unpleasant feelings or bring meaning to our lives, both from the cognitive and psychic perspectives. Thus, music can attribute meanings to our personal experiences and act as a regulator of emotions when living these experiences.Songlyrics can often influence behaviours while helping to work on processes of resilience, autonomy, empowerment, and psychosocial rehabilitation.This study aims to analyse the possibilities of music in the process of resignification of life through the discursive productions of individuals after a suicide attempt.A qualitative study was conducted with eight Brazilian adults assisted in a mental health service,in 2018, through semi-structured interviews.The Symbolic Interactionism theoretical framework was used, and the data weresubmitted for thematic analysis.Three categories were identified: ‘Spirituality as an empowering agent’;‘Sense of belonging and identification’, and ‘The importance of music as a sensitizer of reasons for living and an instrument of verbalization of feelings.The study provides important findings that merit further investigation regarding interventions and possibilities related to music as a healing method in the process of resignification oflife after a suicide attemptOuvir música pode desencadear sentimentos desagradáveis ou trazer sentido às nossas vidas, tanto do ponto de vista cognitivo quanto psíquico.

Pesca do apaiari, Astronotus ocellatus (Agassiz, 1831), e perfil socioeconômico dos pescadores artesanais de uma região da Amazônia brasileira

The artisanal fishery is an important economic and subsistence activity among traditional populations in the Amazon Region. Therefore, the aim of this study was to characterize the fishery of apaiari, Astronotus ocellatus (Agassiz, 1831), and to present a socioeconomic profile of artisanal fishermen in the region lakes of Pracuúba, Amapá, Brazil. From May to August 2011 interviews were conducted using standardized forms with fishermen selected by "snowball" method and aged above 18 years old. A total of 68 fishing workers were interviewed, of which 55 were men and 13 women. It was possible to observe that fishing workers have a wide knowledge of fishery in the Region, including apaiari fishery, and that social and economic lives of the Pracuúba population depend totally of the artisanal fishery

Prevalence, associated factors and outcomes of pressure injuries in adult intensive care unit patients: the DecubICUs study

Funder: European Society of Intensive Care Medicine; doi: http://dx.doi.org/10.13039/501100013347Funder: Flemish Society for Critical Care NursesAbstract: Purpose: Intensive care unit (ICU) patients are particularly susceptible to developing pressure injuries. Epidemiologic data is however unavailable. We aimed to provide an international picture of the extent of pressure injuries and factors associated with ICU-acquired pressure injuries in adult ICU patients. Methods: International 1-day point-prevalence study; follow-up for outcome assessment until hospital discharge (maximum 12 weeks). Factors associated with ICU-acquired pressure injury and hospital mortality were assessed by generalised linear mixed-effects regression analysis. Results: Data from 13,254 patients in 1117 ICUs (90 countries) revealed 6747 pressure injuries; 3997 (59.2%) were ICU-acquired. Overall prevalence was 26.6% (95% confidence interval [CI] 25.9–27.3). ICU-acquired prevalence was 16.2% (95% CI 15.6–16.8). Sacrum (37%) and heels (19.5%) were most affected. Factors independently associated with ICU-acquired pressure injuries were older age, male sex, being underweight, emergency surgery, higher Simplified Acute Physiology Score II, Braden score 3 days, comorbidities (chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, immunodeficiency), organ support (renal replacement, mechanical ventilation on ICU admission), and being in a low or lower-middle income-economy. Gradually increasing associations with mortality were identified for increasing severity of pressure injury: stage I (odds ratio [OR] 1.5; 95% CI 1.2–1.8), stage II (OR 1.6; 95% CI 1.4–1.9), and stage III or worse (OR 2.8; 95% CI 2.3–3.3). Conclusion: Pressure injuries are common in adult ICU patients. ICU-acquired pressure injuries are associated with mainly intrinsic factors and mortality. Optimal care standards, increased awareness, appropriate resource allocation, and further research into optimal prevention are pivotal to tackle this important patient safety threat

DIAGNÓSTICO MOLECULAR DA LEUCEMIA MIELOIDE AGUDA: UMA REVISÃO INTEGRATIVA

A medula óssea é um órgão de grande importância na vida do ser humano. Possui como uma de suas funções a regulação da produção de células sanguíneas, a qual orienta a formação, o desenvolvimento, a distinção e a maturação das células. Este processo ocorre a partir das células-tronco que, por serem indistintas, dispõem da competência de formar diversos tipos celulares e linhagens específicas, como: linfoide e mieloide. O presente trabalho consiste em uma revisão integrativa, no qual tem como objetivo discorrer acerca do diagnóstico molecular da leucemia mieloide aguda, mediante considerações acerca da Reação em Cadeia da Polimerase, do Cariótipo e da Imunofenotipagem, com o intuito de esclarecer a finalidade destes para estudantes e profissionais da área. Trata-se de uma revisão de literatura do tipo integrativa, na qual foi realizada uma pesquisa bibliográfica. O diagnóstico da Leucemia Mieloide Aguda fundamenta-se a partir da anamnese, definindo os sinais e sintomas, associado ao hemograma, o qual deve representar, um número de blastos superior a 20% a cada 200 células, na contagem diferencial no sangue periférico. Para a análise citomorfológica das células blásticas, a classificação Franco-Américo-Britânico era a mais aceita para melhor determinar os subtipos que caracterizam a doença, sendo eles de M0-M7. Todavia, esse procedimento está em desuso e, hoje, outros exames de origem bio molecular, citogenética e imunofenotipagem são mais específicos e estão sendo usados como predileção. Em suma, é possível concluir que os exames empregados para o diagnóstico de leucemia mieloide aguda são fundamentais para sua descoberta

Brazilian Flora 2020: Leveraging the power of a collaborative scientific network

International audienceThe shortage of reliable primary taxonomic data limits the description of biological taxa and the understanding of biodiversity patterns and processes, complicating biogeographical, ecological, and evolutionary studies. This deficit creates a significant taxonomic impediment to biodiversity research and conservation planning. The taxonomic impediment and the biodiversity crisis are widely recognized, highlighting the urgent need for reliable taxonomic data. Over the past decade, numerous countries worldwide have devoted considerable effort to Target 1 of the Global Strategy for Plant Conservation (GSPC), which called for the preparation of a working list of all known plant species by 2010 and an online world Flora by 2020. Brazil is a megadiverse country, home to more of the world's known plant species than any other country. Despite that, Flora Brasiliensis, concluded in 1906, was the last comprehensive treatment of the Brazilian flora. The lack of accurate estimates of the number of species of algae, fungi, and plants occurring in Brazil contributes to the prevailing taxonomic impediment and delays progress towards the GSPC targets. Over the past 12 years, a legion of taxonomists motivated to meet Target 1 of the GSPC, worked together to gather and integrate knowledge on the algal, plant, and fungal diversity of Brazil. Overall, a team of about 980 taxonomists joined efforts in a highly collaborative project that used cybertaxonomy to prepare an updated Flora of Brazil, showing the power of scientific collaboration to reach ambitious goals. This paper presents an overview of the Brazilian Flora 2020 and provides taxonomic and spatial updates on the algae, fungi, and plants found in one of the world's most biodiverse countries. We further identify collection gaps and summarize future goals that extend beyond 2020. Our results show that Brazil is home to 46,975 native species of algae, fungi, and plants, of which 19,669 are endemic to the country. The data compiled to date suggests that the Atlantic Rainforest might be the most diverse Brazilian domain for all plant groups except gymnosperms, which are most diverse in the Amazon. However, scientific knowledge of Brazilian diversity is still unequally distributed, with the Atlantic Rainforest and the Cerrado being the most intensively sampled and studied biomes in the country. In times of “scientific reductionism”, with botanical and mycological sciences suffering pervasive depreciation in recent decades, the first online Flora of Brazil 2020 significantly enhanced the quality and quantity of taxonomic data available for algae, fungi, and plants from Brazil. This project also made all the information freely available online, providing a firm foundation for future research and for the management, conservation, and sustainable use of the Brazilian funga and flora
