Comparison of pain burden and psychological factors in Brazilian women living with HIV and chronic neuropathic or nociceptive pain : an exploratory study

Psychological factors including pain catastrophizing and resilience associate with adjustment and quality of life in people living with chronic pain. Nevertheless, their presentation among females living with HIV and chronic pain has been poorly studied. Given that chronic pain in those living with HIV might occur due to different mechanisms (nociceptive or neuropathic), we hypothesize that the associated psychological states could also differ between these groups. We aimed to compare pain frequency and interference, psychological factors and sleep quality between females living with chronic nociceptive or neuropathic pain. Also, we explored correlations between psychological factors, pain severity and interference in females living with HIV and chronic pain. We performed a cross sectional study assessing females living with HIV and chronic pain, and compared it with a female HIV-positive, painfree control sample in Brazil. To discriminate the most likely underlying mechanism for the chronic pain, we applied the Leeds Assessment for Neuropathic Signs and Symptoms (LANSS). Forty-nine females living with HIV and chronic pain were assessed, and divided in control (n = 12), nociceptive (n = 10) and neuropathic pain (n = 27) groups. Using validated scales, their pain catastrophizing, resilience, depression, anxiety and sleep disorders were assessed between May 2014 and August 2015. Compared to controls, females living with HIV and neuropathic chronic pain had higher pain frequency (p<0.001), interference on activities (p = 0.002), interference with emotions (p<0.001), catastrophizing (p<0.001), depression (p = 0.015), and lower resilience (p = 0.011). Catastrophizing was also significantly correlated to the burden of chronic pain. The type of chronic pain in females living with HIV should raise concerns regarding significant burden in psychological states in this population (particularly neuropathic pain). Using scales such as the LANSS to identify the type of choric pain, could be of use to address relevant issues for the patients, and to propose tailored therapies

A DINÂMICA DA RELAÇÃO ENTRE ESTRUTURA E FUNÇÃO NO DESENVOLVIMENTO DAS FACULDADES PSICOLÓGICAS SUPERIORES

Este artigo, partindo da teoria psicogenética de Piaget e da teoria histórico-cultural de Vygotsky, investiga a relação entre a estrutura do sistema nervoso central e as funções psicológicas superiores, visando observar a existência de eventos críticos que justifiquem saltos qualitativos na capacidade cognitiva da criança, bem como a rigidez de etapas de desenvolvimento. Diante da inexistência dos referidos eventos críticos, concluimos que a interação social, através da apreensão da cultura historicamente construída, representa um fator relevante no desenvolvimento do pensamento abstrato, atuando fisicamente sobre a citoarquitetura do sistema nervoso central e plasmando a evolução cognitiva imprescindível ao raciocínio abstrato, o qual não pode ser alcançado exclusivamente pelo desenvolvimento biológico

Agronomic performance of kidney bean and castor bean cultivars in intercropping and monocropping systems under weed competition

Abstract Castor bean is becoming a major industrial crop in Brazil. Weed management is a castor bean large-scale production issue due to lack of registered herbicides in Brazil. It was hypothesized that intercrops with kidney bean and castor bean could not only provide nitrogen to castor, but reduce weed pressure and, consequently, reduce herbicide purchase costs. This research aimed to determine weed community influence on kidney bean and castor bean intercropping and monocropping cultivars agronomic traits under soil and climate conditions of the Southeast region of the State of Goiás, Brazil. The experimental design was a randomized block design with factorial arrangement of 3 × 2 × 2 + 10, with three replications. The treatments consisted of three bean cultivars with different growth types (Pérola = type II/III; Pontal = type III; Estilo = type I) and two castor cultivars with different sizes (Guarani = medium and Paraguaçu = tall), combined with two types of weed handling: manually weeded area (without weeds infestation throughout the cultivar cycle) and unweeded area (with weeds infestation throughout the cultivar cycle) in intercropping, in addition to involved crops monocropping treatments, with and without weeding. Weed infestation during the cropping cycle caused a yield decrease of around 32% and 67% for bean and castor, respectively. Pontal, Pérola and Estilo kidney bean cultivars, and Guarani and Paraguaçu castor bean cultivars showed potential for intercropping. The use of kidney bean intercropping with castor bean under weed handling was more efficient than monocropping of both, regardless of researched genetic materials. The intercropping system enabled bean and castor yield of around 1.328 Mg ha -1 and 1.827 Mg ha -1 , respectively, in areas that were kept free from weed competition, regardless of cultivar

Subjective aspects of people with chronic ulcers: a qualitative study in Brazil and Portugal

Introduction: The experience built in the process of living with chronic ulcer is marked by changes such as the inability to work, to relate socially and causes the need to adapt to a routine care. Understanding this network of meanings is important to develop techniques of individual or collective care. Objective: To understand impregnated subjectivities in the everyday experiences of Brazilian and Portuguese patients with chronic ulcers, in the light of the Oral History of life. Method: Comparative study with a qualitative approach, using Oral History as method and technique. The network of collaborators, formed by males and females, aged 39-82 years, was structured into two groups, one consisting of 06 people in Natal / RN, Brazil and another composed of 10 people in Évora / Portugal. In both groups, the narratives were collected through open questions, which were recorded, transcribed and analyzed by the technique of thematic content analysis. Results: Through the analysis, three themes were revealed: Social repercussion in Brazil and in Portugal; Trajectory of theinjured person; and Coping mechanisms. Conclusion: Changes were observed in social life, leading contributors to isolation, in addition to confronting the stigma experienced. There were also identified points as the reinterpretation of chronic wound carrier about their disease and coping strategies of their chronic condition

Efeito de parâmetros de corte na qualidade superficial e no desgaste de ferramentas de carboneto no torneamento sem lubrificação do aço SAE 4140 / Effect of cutting parameters on surface quality and wearing of carbide tools in dry turning of SAE 4140 steel

Atualmente as tecnologias limpas estão ganhando muita importância no setor industrial, consequentemente os processos de usinagem também tendem a buscar a redução da geração de resíduos. Uma das alternativas muito usada é a redução ou extinção do uso de fluidos de corte, o que é conhecida como usinagem limpa ou verde. Este estudo avalia a relação da variação da velocidade de corte e do avanço no torneamento a seco de amostras de aço SAE 4140 utilizando pastilhas de metal duro sinuosas com revestimento triplo com o desgaste da ferramenta e a qualidade superficial da amostra. Foram realizados ensaios aplicando quatro combinações usando duas velocidades (160 e 250 m/min), dois avanços (0,100 e 0,316 mm/rev) e profundidade de 1mm. A definição dos melhores parâmetros se baseou no estudo dos mecanismos de desgaste das ferramentas, nos diferentes tempos de usinagem e nos melhores resultados de rugosidade. Os melhores resultados em relação à rugosidade foram obtidos com velocidade de 250 m/min e avanço de 0,100 mm/rev enquanto a combinação de menores valores gerou os desgastes mais baixos
