USO DE FITOTERÁPICOS POR MULHERES DO MUNICÍPIO DE TAUÁ, CEARÁ, BRASIL

Fitoterápico é o resultado da industrialização da planta medicinal para se obtiver um medicamento. Assim, a diferença entre planta medicinal e fitoterápica reside na elaboração da planta para uma formulação específica. Baseando-se no exposto, este trabalho reporta o uso de fitoterápicos por mulheres do Município de Tauá, Ceará, Brasil. O estudo foi realizado com entrevista de 50 mulheres entre 18 e 83 anos na cidade de Tauá-Ce, que utilizam ou já utilizaram plantas medicinais como fitoterápicos. Para coleta de dados foi aplicado um questionário semiestruturado como roteiro complementado por entrevistas livres e conversas informais em que se buscou obter o máximo de informações sobre o uso das plantas medicinais e seus benefícios. Como resultado desta pesquisa, 84% da população investigada utilizam plantas medicinais e apenas 16% não fazem uso das mesmas. Os resultados revelaram que o fitoterápico mais utilizado era a hortelã (Mentha piperita), de forma isolada ou combinada com outras plantas medicinais. A utilização deste foi feita, principalmente, por mulheres que tem o primeiro grau incompleto, para o tratamento de gripes ou resfriados, utilizando através de chás, xaropes ou lambedores. Os fitoterápicos são adquiridos através de plantações em suas próprias casas, comércios ou parentes

Evaluation Of The Overload Of Care In Families Of Psychiatric Patients In Psychosocial Care Center

Introduction: The burden of care in family refers to the weight caused by the primary caregiver role to psychiatric patients and the difficulties encountered in performing this function in daily life. Objectives: Assessing the objective and subjective overload of family members who live with the reality of psychiatric disorder in a child day-care psychosocial care center. Methods: Cross-sectional study, descriptive-exploratory, of quantitative approach, with non-probabilistic samples of accidental type with 80 families of psychiatric patients held in a Psychosocial Care Center. For overload evaluation, the subscales "B" and "D" of the Family Overload Rating Scale (FBIS-BR) were used. Results: The study was conducted with 80 families of psychiatric patients. The average age of female caregivers was 39,6 years old, and 40,7 years old for male caregivers, with female predominance (87,5%) compared to men (12,5%), with low education for both genres. Family caregivers presented high objective burden due to excessive demand attention (p<0,001), heteroaggressiveness (p<0,001) and perplexing behavior of psychiatric patients regarding the supervision of problematic behaviors (p<0,001). The items on the impact on the family's daily routine have not helped to generate objective overload for the family members. On subjective overload, it was clear to observe familiar members with high degree of disturbance in all the dimensions assessed (p < 0,001). Conclusion: The high degree of care overload observed in family members indicates the need to develop contacts with the family of the psychiatric patient to answer questions, offer support and assistance to the family caregiver.

Design: A cross-sectional study from the baseline of the multicentre Brazilian Longitudinal Study of Adult Health (ELSA-Brasil) cohort. Year of birth was categorized into three birth generations: Traditionalists (born between 1934 and 1945); Baby Boomers (born between 1946 and 1964); and Generation X (born between 1965 and 1975). Food consumption was investigated using an FFQ. Latent class analysis (LCA) was used to identify data-driven dietary patterns. Setting: Brazil. Subjects: Individuals (n 15 069) aged 35–74 years. Results: A three-class model was generated from the LCA for each birth generation. Generation X presented higher energy intakes (kJ/kcal) from soft drinks (377·4/ 90·2) and sweets (1262·3/301·7) and lower energy intakes from fruit (1502·5/ 359·1) and vegetables (311·3/74·4) than Baby Boomers (283·7/67·8, 1047·7/250·4, 1756·0/419·7 and 365·3/87·3, respectively) and Traditionalists (186·2/44·5, 518·8/ 124·0, 1947·7/465·5 and 404·6/96·7, respectively). For Baby Boomers and Generation X, we found food patterns with similar structures: mixed pattern (22·7 and 29·7%, respectively), prudent pattern (43·5 and 34·9%, respectively) and processed pattern (33·8 and 35·4%, respectively). Among Traditionalists, we could also identify mixed (30·9%) and prudent (21·8%) patterns, and a third pattern, named restricted dietary pattern (47·3 %). Conclusions: The younger generation presented higher frequencies of consuming a pattern characterized by a low nutritional diet, compared with other generations, indicating that they may age with a greater burden of chronic diseases. It is important to develop public health interventions promoting healthy foods, focusing on the youngest generations

NEOTROPICAL XENARTHRANS: a data set of occurrence of xenarthran species in the Neotropics

Xenarthrans—anteaters, sloths, and armadillos—have essential functions for ecosystem maintenance, such as insect control and nutrient cycling, playing key roles as ecosystem engineers. Because of habitat loss and fragmentation, hunting pressure, and conflicts with domestic dogs, these species have been threatened locally, regionally, or even across their full distribution ranges. The Neotropics harbor 21 species of armadillos, 10 anteaters, and 6 sloths. Our data set includes the families Chlamyphoridae (13), Dasypodidae (7), Myrmecophagidae (3), Bradypodidae (4), and Megalonychidae (2). We have no occurrence data on Dasypus pilosus (Dasypodidae). Regarding Cyclopedidae, until recently, only one species was recognized, but new genetic studies have revealed that the group is represented by seven species. In this data paper, we compiled a total of 42,528 records of 31 species, represented by occurrence and quantitative data, totaling 24,847 unique georeferenced records. The geographic range is from the southern United States, Mexico, and Caribbean countries at the northern portion of the Neotropics, to the austral distribution in Argentina, Paraguay, Chile, and Uruguay. Regarding anteaters, Myrmecophaga tridactyla has the most records (n = 5,941), and Cyclopes sp. have the fewest (n = 240). The armadillo species with the most data is Dasypus novemcinctus (n = 11,588), and the fewest data are recorded for Calyptophractus retusus (n = 33). With regard to sloth species, Bradypus variegatus has the most records (n = 962), and Bradypus pygmaeus has the fewest (n = 12). Our main objective with Neotropical Xenarthrans is to make occurrence and quantitative data available to facilitate more ecological research, particularly if we integrate the xenarthran data with other data sets of Neotropical Series that will become available very soon (i.e., Neotropical Carnivores, Neotropical Invasive Mammals, and Neotropical Hunters and Dogs). Therefore, studies on trophic cascades, hunting pressure, habitat loss, fragmentation effects, species invasion, and climate change effects will be possible with the Neotropical Xenarthrans data set. Please cite this data paper when using its data in publications. We also request that researchers and teachers inform us of how they are using these data
