    Na sociedade, a gravidez sempre foi tratada como uma experiência unicamente feminina, porém, observa-se que os conceitos e funções pré-determinados para homem e mulher na família estão em plena transformação. Descrever a importância da participação paterna no acompanhamento ao pré-natal na visão do pai e da gestante. Trata-se de um estudo descritivo e quantitativo. A pesquisa teve como referência as Estratégias de Saúde da Família Cáceres-MT. Participaram da pesquisa 30 gestantes e seus respectivos companheiros. Quando questionado se as gestantes conversaram com seus companheiros sobre a importância da participação paterna no pré-natal, 67% das gestantes responderam que sim e 33 % não conversaram. Importante ressaltar que o pré-natal de qualidade é alcançado através de condutas acolhedoras e necessárias à gestante. Engrenados nesse progresso está à figura paterna, que demonstra ter interesse em participar, porém, o trabalho os impedem de contribuir de maneira efetiva. &nbsp

    Altres ajuts: Fundació La Marató de TV3 (239/C/2018)Depressive symptoms are common among people living with HIV (PLWH). The aim of this study was to identify the determinants of depressive symptoms in PLWH in Spain. A total of 1060 PLWH participated in this cross-sectional study and completed the Patient Health Questionnaire-9. The odds ratios for the presence of depressive symptoms were analyzed in a multivariable logistic regression model, including sociodemographic data, comorbidities, health-related behaviors, and social-environment-related variables. We found an overall prevalence of depressive symptoms of 21.42%; by subgroup, namely men, women, and transgender persons, prevalence was 18.13%, 32.81%, and 37.14%, respectively. Moreover, social isolation (OR = 1.05 [CI, 1.02-1.08]) and poor physical and mental quality of life (OR = 1.06 [CI, 1.02-1.09] and OR = 1.13 [CI, 1.09-1.17], respectively) were associated with depressive symptoms. As protective factors, we identified serodisclosure to more people (vs. none; OR = 0.39 [CI, 0.17-0.87]), satisfaction with social roles (OR = 0.86 [CI, 0.79-0.94]), better cognitive function (OR = 0.92 [CI, 0.89-0.95]), and sexualized drug use once in a lifetime (OR = 0.52 [CI, 0.29-0.93]). This study showed a high prevalence of depressive symptoms in PLWH, especially among women and transgender people. The association between psychosocial variables and depressive symptoms highlights the multidimensionality of the problem and identifies areas for intervention. This study found that the management of mental health issues is an area that needs to be improved and tailored to specific groups, with the aim of enhancing the well-being of PLWH

    The molecular mechanisms of plant recognition, colonization, and nutrient exchange between diazotrophic endophytes and plants are scarcely known. Herbaspirillum seropedicae is an endophytic bacterium capable of colonizing intercellular spaces of grasses such as rice and sugar cane. The genome of H. seropedicae strain SmR1 was sequenced and annotated by The Paraná State Genome Programme—GENOPAR. The genome is composed of a circular chromosome of 5,513,887 bp and contains a total of 4,804 genes. The genome sequence revealed that H. seropedicae is a highly versatile microorganism with capacity to metabolize a wide range of carbon and nitrogen sources and with possession of four distinct terminal oxidases. The genome contains a multitude of protein secretion systems, including type I, type II, type III, type V, and type VI secretion systems, and type IV pili, suggesting a high potential to interact with host plants. H. seropedicae is able to synthesize indole acetic acid as reflected by the four IAA biosynthetic pathways present. A gene coding for ACC deaminase, which may be involved in modulating the associated plant ethylene-signaling pathway, is also present. Genes for hemagglutinins/hemolysins/adhesins were found and may play a role in plant cell surface adhesion. These features may endow H. seropedicae with the ability to establish an endophytic life-style in a large number of plant species

    Summary Background Congenital anomalies are the fifth leading cause of mortality in children younger than 5 years globally. Many gastrointestinal congenital anomalies are fatal without timely access to neonatal surgical care, but few studies have been done on these conditions in low-income and middle-income countries (LMICs). We compared outcomes of the seven most common gastrointestinal congenital anomalies in low-income, middle-income, and high-income countries globally, and identified factors associated with mortality. Methods We did a multicentre, international prospective cohort study of patients younger than 16 years, presenting to hospital for the first time with oesophageal atresia, congenital diaphragmatic hernia, intestinal atresia, gastroschisis, exomphalos, anorectal malformation, and Hirschsprung’s disease. Recruitment was of consecutive patients for a minimum of 1 month between October, 2018, and April, 2019. We collected data on patient demographics, clinical status, interventions, and outcomes using the REDCap platform. Patients were followed up for 30 days after primary intervention, or 30 days after admission if they did not receive an intervention. The primary outcome was all-cause, in-hospital mortality for all conditions combined and each condition individually, stratified by country income status. We did a complete case analysis. Findings We included 3849 patients with 3975 study conditions (560 with oesophageal atresia, 448 with congenital diaphragmatic hernia, 681 with intestinal atresia, 453 with gastroschisis, 325 with exomphalos, 991 with anorectal malformation, and 517 with Hirschsprung’s disease) from 264 hospitals (89 in high-income countries, 166 in middleincome countries, and nine in low-income countries) in 74 countries. Of the 3849 patients, 2231 (58·0%) were male. Median gestational age at birth was 38 weeks (IQR 36–39) and median bodyweight at presentation was 2·8 kg (2·3–3·3). Mortality among all patients was 37 (39·8%) of 93 in low-income countries, 583 (20·4%) of 2860 in middle-income countries, and 50 (5·6%) of 896 in high-income countries (p<0·0001 between all country income groups). Gastroschisis had the greatest difference in mortality between country income strata (nine [90·0%] of ten in lowincome countries, 97 [31·9%] of 304 in middle-income countries, and two [1·4%] of 139 in high-income countries; p≤0·0001 between all country income groups). Factors significantly associated with higher mortality for all patients combined included country income status (low-income vs high-income countries, risk ratio 2·78 [95% CI 1·88–4·11], p<0·0001; middle-income vs high-income countries, 2·11 [1·59–2·79], p<0·0001), sepsis at presentation (1·20 [1·04–1·40], p=0·016), higher American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) score at primary intervention (ASA 4–5 vs ASA 1–2, 1·82 [1·40–2·35], p<0·0001; ASA 3 vs ASA 1–2, 1·58, [1·30–1·92], p<0·0001]), surgical safety checklist not used (1·39 [1·02–1·90], p=0·035), and ventilation or parenteral nutrition unavailable when needed (ventilation 1·96, [1·41–2·71], p=0·0001; parenteral nutrition 1·35, [1·05–1·74], p=0·018). Administration of parenteral nutrition (0·61, [0·47–0·79], p=0·0002) and use of a peripherally inserted central catheter (0·65 [0·50–0·86], p=0·0024) or percutaneous central line (0·69 [0·48–1·00], p=0·049) were associated with lower mortality. Interpretation Unacceptable differences in mortality exist for gastrointestinal congenital anomalies between lowincome, middle-income, and high-income countries. Improving access to quality neonatal surgical care in LMICs will be vital to achieve Sustainable Development Goal 3.2 of ending preventable deaths in neonates and children younger than 5 years by 2030

    INTRODUÇÃO: as situações de trote excessivo se confrontam com a importância do trote para a integração dos alunos; este deixa de ser apenas uma brincadeira e se torna um meio de auto-afirmação e hierarquização, ferindo o direito individual do calouro. OBJETIVO: verificar a existência de influências socioeconômicas e de gênero. METODOLOGIA: questionário quantitativo com tabulação em Excel e análise estatística por meio do software Microstat. POPULAÇÃO: estudantes de primeiro, segundo e terceiro ano de 2006 e primeiro ano de 2007 do curso de Medicina da Pontifícia Universidade Católica de Campinas. RESULTADOS: os homens aplicam mais trote e recebem menos de mulheres; os homens recebem os piores trotes de homens, e as mulheres recebem de mulheres; os homens concordam mais com a função integrativa do trote; o trote pode se expressar como uma forma de violência, independentemente do gênero; o trote é considerado de leve a moderado pelos homens, e de pesado a muito pesado pelas mulheres; para as mulheres, o trote é mais constrangedor. CONCLUSÃO: o trote se apresenta de forma diferente entre homens e mulheres, e não há relação entre renda familiar e trote
