UTILIZAÇÃO DO SENSORIAMENTO REMOTO NA AGRICULTURA DE PRECISÃO: UMA ANÁLISE BIBLIOMÉTRICA

Este estudo teve por objetivo analisar a produção científica sobre a utilização do sensoriamento remoto na agricultura de precisão, desenvolvida por autores vinculados a instituições brasileiras, com base numa ampla compilação de artigos científicos. Adotou-se como metodologia de pesquisa a análise bibliométrica e, a partir dela, relacionaram-se os resultados obtidos às dimensões espacial, temporal, institucional e temática da pesquisa brasileira nesta área. Os resultados evidenciam que, apesar de recente, o sensoriamento remoto vem contribuindo para o manejo da agricultura a sítio específico, estando à produção científica concentrada, principalmente, nas instituições das regiões Sudeste e Sul do Brasil. A maior freqüência de uso dessa geotecnologia tem ocorrido no nível terrestre, o que permite o aprimoramento e lançamento de novos sistemas sensores comerciais. Verificou-se que as diferenças nas abordagens variam em função das técnicas empregadas. Enquanto que no sensoriamento remoto terrestre o enfoque está na caracterização do comportamento espectral de solos e de plantas, no sensoriamento remoto orbital a contribuição está nas estimativas de variações espaciais e/ou temporais de áreas cultivadas e de produtividades, condições importantes para a previsão de safras agrícolas

MIOCARDIOPATIA NÃO COMPACTADA - UMA REVISÃO DA LITERATURA

: Introduction - The left ventricular noncompaction (LVNC) is a patology with a familiar occurrence and relevant historic of sudden death and heart failure; it's considered an unclassified cardiomyopathy by World Health Organization (WHO). According to American Heart Association (AHA), it's a primary cardiomyopathy. Development - The LVNC results in a genetic alteration which leads to stop miocardial compaction process, characterized by persistence of trabeculation and deep intertrabecular recesses communicating with the ventricular cavity. The initial clinical findings may vary from asymptomatic to chest pain, heart failure and arrhythmias. The main diagnosis methods for LVNC are echocardiography and cardiac magnetic resonance imaging, having as main differential diagnosis the apical form of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, a combination of both apical hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and LVNC, hypertensive cardiomyopathy, endocardial fibroelastosis, apical thrombus, or tumours among others. Final considerations - The menagement available includes the treatment for heart failure, arrhythmias and thromboembolic events, but it's neceassary particularize the therapeutics related to anticoagulation and primary prevention of sudden death.RESUMO Introdução - A miocardiopatia não compactada (MNC) é uma patologia de ocorrência familiar com histórico relevante de morte súbita e insuficiência cardíaca; é considerada como uma miocardiopatia não classificada pela Organização Mundial da Saúde (OMS). Segundo a Associação Americana de Cardiologia, é uma cardiomiopatia primária. Desenvolvimento - A MNC resulta de uma alteração genética que leva a uma parada do processo de compactação miocárdica, caracterizada pela persistência de trabeculações e recessos profundos que se comunicam com a cavidade ventricular. A apresentação clínica inicial varia de assintomático a apresentação de sintomas relacionados à dor torácica, insuficiência cardíaca e arritmias. Os principais métodos de diagnóstico para MNC são estudos ecocardiográficos e ressonância magnética cardíaca, tendo como principais diagnósticos diferenciais a forma apical de cardiomiopatia hipertrófica, a combinação de cardiomiopatia hipertrófica apical e MNC, cardiomiopatia hipertensiva, fibroelastose endocárdica, trombo apical ou tumores entre outros. Considerações finais - A terapêutica disponível inclui tratamento para insuficiência cardíaca, arritmias e eventos tromboembólicos, mas é necessário particularizar a terapêutica relacionada à anticoagulação e prevenção primária de morte súbita cardíaca.   Palavras-chave: Cardiomiopatias; insuficiência cardíaca; arritmias cardíacas.

Could heart rate variability be associated with weight bearing asymmetries in cerebrovascular diseases?

Introduction: Cerebrovascular diseases result in sensory-motor deficits disturbing postural control that is observed by weight-bearing asymmetries commonly named as hemiparesis. Besides hemiparetic impairments, first observed after stroke, many studies have pointed cardiac failure and risk of sudden death as the main factors responsible for death of stroke survivars. This case series characterized weight-bearing asymmetries and heart rate variability, and describes relationships between these parameters in hemiparesis. Case Series: Brazilian male subjects with chronic hemiparesis acquired after ischemic stroke in the middle cerebral artery. Five were selected to study heart rate variability obtained by Root Mean Square Successive Difference. Also, weight-bearing asymmetries were measured by Symmetry Ratio calculated by weight-bearing recorded between each foot. The Symmetry Ratio was 1.1±0.43 for all cases presenting a symmetry case (n = 1) and different types of asymmetries cases (n = 4) during upright position. Root Mean Square Successive Difference was 9.9±3.4, presenting strong and significant (p < 0.05) positive correlation with age and a strong but not significant (0.05 < p < 0.10) negative correlation with hemiparesis chronicity. A strong but not significant negative correlation was observed between the Root Mean Square Successive Difference and the Symmetry Rate values. Conclusion: A characteristic pattern of heart rate variability for patients with cerebrovascular disease was observed in these cases, associated significantly with age. Still, this behavior seems to be influenced by chronicity and by different types of asymmetries in the distribution of weight bearing that could be investigated in more appropriate clinical research designs

Few business leaders are aware of the fragility of their supply chains or other critical systems due to earthquake hazard. Bridging the gap between research production and research use is another crucial challenge for the earthquake risk research process. The KnowRISK project outcome is aimed at encouraging the proactive engagement of multi-stakeholders (community at large, schools, business community and local govern-ment groups) undertaking non-structural mitigation measures that will minimize earthquake losses to individuals and communities. Engaging stakeholders, taking into account their needs and inputs to maintain critical and urgent business activities, can contribute to the research findings and ensure that our data collection is thorough and complete. Engagement with stakeholders, during the whole process can lead to improved outcomes and for the development of viable solutions, for business and society, because of stakeholder’s role and influence within the organizations.Peer reviewe

Analysis of Nursing Team Knowledge About Phlebitis and Its Related Factors

Phlebitis is one of the local complications related to intravenous therapy, which must be managed by the nursing team. This study analyzed the knowledge of the nursing team about phlebitis and its main risk factors, prevention, and control measures. This is a cross-sectional study with a quantitative design carried out with 124 nursing professionals from a Brazilian university hospital. The data collection was carried out between the period of August 2018 to July 2019 for that, the researchers applied a multiple-choice questionnaire. The results showed the equivalence of the three nursing categories in terms of knowledge about phlebitis, however, there was a discrepancy concerning the phlebitis visualization scale, use of warm compresses, dressings, chemical properties of the solutions and factors intrinsic to the patient. The need to implement permanent education among professionals became evident

“EM BRIGA DE MARIDO E MULHER, NÃO SE METE A COLHER?”: ANÁLISE DA VIOLÊNCIA BASEADO NO GÊNERO E O PAPEL DO SETOR SAÚDE

Este trabalho objetivou fazer uma reflexão acerca da violência baseada no gênero, suas implicações na vida das vítimas e o papel do setor saúde no manejo dos casos. Trata-se de uma abordagem reflexiva da literatura, que incluiu artigos de periódicos eletrônicos, publicados nos anos de 2006 a 2012, estes estavam indexados na LILACS, Scielo, MEDLINE, e disponíveis na íntegra. Também foram consultados livros-textos de especialistas da área das ciências criminais. Os atos cometidos contra as mulheres podem ser classificados como crime passional, aquele movido pela paixão, e sentimentos, muitas vezes, exacerbados e incontroláveis, desencadeiam atos violentos, entre eles o ódio e ciúmes. Nota-se que a mulher que sofre tal agressão evita denunciar e se isola dos sistemas de apoio, o que a torna ainda mais dependente do seu agressor, surgindo com maior frequência o sentimento de temor que paralisa e impede a mulher de buscar ajuda. O setor saúde, por ter como objetivo a promoção da autonomia das mulheres, estimulando-as a responsabilizar-se por seus próprios cuidados e assumindo seus direitos e responsabilidades, tem papel importante no acolhimento das mesmas. É de fundamental importância que os profissionais desses setores acolham, deem continuidade ao trabalho educativo de estimular a mulher a exercer a sua autonomia
