    Temporomandibular dysfunction (TMD), anxiety, and depression are disorders that, due to the current lifestyle, are affecting an increasing portion of the population. Investigating the prevalence of the symptoms of these disorders during the quarantine due to the coronavirus 2019 pandemic (COVID-19) is important to outline clinical strategies for patient care. Objective: This study assessed the prevalence of TMD symptoms, anxiety, depression, and oral behaviors and their associations during the social isolation due to COVID-19. Methodology: Questionnaires were used to assess TMD symptoms in accordance with the Diagnostic Criteria for Temporomandibular Disorders: clinical protocol and assessment instruments, a questionnaire to verify oral behaviors and Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale to assess symptoms of anxiety and depression in students of dentistry at the Faculty of Health Sciences of the University of Brasília in May 2020. Qualitative data were subjected to descriptive statistics and chi-squared analysis (p<0.05). The relationship between quantitative and qualitative data was evaluated using Spearman's rho correlation (p<0.05). Results: There was a high prevalence of TMD symptoms, anxiety, and depression in the participants, resulting in association between gender and anxiety symptoms (p=0.029). There was a positive correlation between oral behaviors and TMD symptoms (r=0.364; p<0.001), between oral behaviors and anxiety symptoms (r=0.312; p=0.001), and between oral behaviors and symptoms of depression (r=0.216; p=0.021). Conclusion: Social isolation due to the COVID-19 pandemic has an impact on the prevalence of TMD symptoms, anxiety, and depression

    Objective: to analyze the sociodemographic profile of pregnant adolescents in Brazil between 2015 and 2019. Method: descriptive cross-sectional study, with a quantitative approach, coming from the Information Technology Department of the Unified Health System. Data analysis used absolute and relative frequencies (%). Results: 2,405,248 pregnant adolescents were registered. The majority of pregnancies occurred in girls aged 15 to 19 years (95.2%), of a brown color (65.4%), single (64.9%), with 8 to 11 years of maternal education (66.9%). As for the characteristics of pregnancy, 98.7% were single pregnancy, lasting 37 to 41 weeks (81.7%) and vaginal type of delivery (61.2%). The temporal analysis showed a drop from 2015 to 2019. Conclusion: teenage pregnancy is a complex event in which attention must address a biopsychosocial context.  Thus, delineating the sociodemographic profile of these adolescents is necessary, as it makes it possible to get to know the population under study and its vulnerability conditions.Objetivo: analizar el perfil sociodemográfico de las adolescentes embarazadas en Brasil entre los años 2015 y 2019. Método: estudio descriptivo transversal, con enfoque cuantitativo, del Departamento de Informática del Sistema Único de Salud. En el análisis de los datos se utilizaron frecuencias absolutas y relativas (%). Resultados: se registraron 2.405.248 adolescentes embarazadas. La mayoría de los embarazos se produjeron en chicas de entre 15 y 19 años (95,2%), morenas (65,4%), solteras (64,9%), con entre 8 y 11 años de educación materna (66,9%). En cuanto a las características del embarazo, el 98,7% fueron embarazos únicos, con una duración de 37 a 41 semanas (81,7%) y tipo de parto vaginal (61,2%). El análisis temporal mostró un descenso de 2015 a 2019. Conclusión: el embarazo en la adolescencia constituye un evento complejo en el que se debe prestar atención a un contexto biopsicosocial.  Por lo tanto, es necesario delinear el perfil sociodemográfico de los adolescentes, ya que permite conocer a la población en estudio y sus condiciones de vulnerabilidad.Objetivo: analisar o perfil sociodemográfico de adolescentes grávidas no Brasil entre os anos de 2015 até 2019.

    Está cada vez mais frequente a discussão sobre sexualidade e gênero na educação. Variados setores da sociedade manifestam-se tanto a favor como contra as mudanças nos planos de ensino. O presente trabalho objetiva pensar em uma escola menos favorável a reprodução e perpetuação de violências, identificar os obstáculos que dificultam a promoção dos direitos humanos nas escolas e reforçar como as questões de gênero e sexualidade se faz de extrema importância para uma educação que garanta vivências positivas com as diferenças. O trabalho foi feito em duas partes: 1) uma revisão literatura, onde buscamos em artigos, livros e jornais eletrônicos dados para confortar ideias, 2) e uma pesquisa de campo onde foram feitas quatro entrevistas sendo duas em escolas particulares e duas em escola pública da rede estadual, Os dados nos mostraram que a dinâmica das relações de poder e as dinâmicas de legitimação e deslegitimação presentes no ambiente escolar precisam ser problematizadas; a Psicologia não pode se ausentar do ambiente escolar a fim de atuações inovadoras; a formação profissional necessita se adequar as demandas contemporâneas e as necessidades vigentes da sociedade

    Caries relacionada a radiación es una complicación tardı́a frecuente de la radioterapia de cáncer de cabeza y cuello, ocasionada por efectos directos e indirectos de la radioterapia. El objetivo del presente trabajo es realizar una revisión y analizar literatura sobre el manejo de caries relacionada a radiación, materiales usados, fallas en el tratamiento y protocolo con mejores resultados; tres revisores independientes realizaron una búsqueda en diferentes bases de datos: PubMed, Lilacs y Web Of Science, determinando criterios de inclusión y exclusión para la selección. Estudios clı́nicos y revisiones indicaron que los materiales más usados son cemento ionómero de vidrio convencional, cemento ionómero de vidrio modiicado con resina y resina compuesta con aplicaciones de lúor. Son necesarios más estudios para definir el mejor tratamiento que incluya técnica de preparación de la cavidad y material restaurador con mejores resultados. Se recomienda realizar estudios comparando diferentes sistemas adhesivos, concentraciones de lúor y restauraciones en dentina radicular

    Social Networks Shape the Transmission Dynamics of Hepatitis C Virus

    Hepatitis C virus (HCV) infects 170 million people worldwide, and is a major public health problem in Brazil, where over 1% of the population may be infected and where multiple viral genotypes co-circulate. Chronically infected individuals are both the source of transmission to others and are at risk for HCV-related diseases, such as liver cancer and cirrhosis. Before the adoption of anti-HCV control measures in blood banks, this virus was mainly transmitted via blood transfusion. Today, needle sharing among injecting drug users is the most common form of HCV transmission. Of particular importance is that HCV prevalence is growing in non-risk groups. Since there is no vaccine against HCV, it is important to determine the factors that control viral transmission in order to develop more efficient control measures. However, despite the health costs associated with HCV, the factors that determine the spread of virus at the epidemiological scale are often poorly understood. Here, we sequenced partial NS5b gene sequences sampled from blood samples collected from 591 patients in São Paulo state, Brazil. We show that different viral genotypes entered São Paulo at different times, grew at different rates, and are associated with different age groups and risk behaviors. In particular, subtype 1b is older and grew more slowly than subtypes 1a and 3a, and is associated with multiple age classes. In contrast, subtypes 1a and 3b are associated with younger people infected more recently, possibly with higher rates of sexual transmission. The transmission dynamics of HCV in São Paulo therefore vary by subtype and are determined by a combination of age, risk exposure and underlying social network. We conclude that social factors may play a key role in determining the rate and pattern of HCV spread, and should influence future intervention policies
