    Climacteric presents a set of signs and symptoms resulting from the gradual failure of ovarian activity, which marks the transition from the reproductive to the non-reproductive period. In addition to bringing physical and hormonal changes, this period makes women more prone to irritability and nervousness. In this context, this article aimed to discuss the psychological implications during menopause and its impact on women's health. For this, a bibliographic search was carried out in the Google Academic and Scielo databases. The literature indicates that several psychological changes are found during menopause, namely: behavioral changes, mood changes, depression, anxiety, crying spells, sadness, discouragement, irritability, emotional lability, insomnia and memory changes, in addition to greater vulnerability of psychic disorders. It is essential to pay attention to mental health and psychological changes caused by changes resulting from menopause and provide quality of life for these women.El climaterio presenta un conjunto de signos y síntomas resultantes del fracaso gradual de la actividad ovárica, que demarca la transición del período reproductivo al no reproductivo. Además de traer transformaciones físicas y hormonales, este período hace que las mujeres estén más predispuestas a la irritabilidad y el nerviosismo. En este contexto, este artículo tuvo como objetivo discutir las implicaciones psicológicas durante el climaterio y su repercusión en la salud de las mujeres. Para ello, se realizó una investigación bibliográfica en bases de datos lilas y scielos. La literatura indica que durante el climaterio se encuentran varios cambios psicológicos, que son: cambios de comportamiento, cambios de humor, depresión, ansiedad, crisis de llanto, tristeza, desánimo, irritabilidad, labilidad emocional, insomnio y alteraciones de la memoria, además de la mayor vulnerabilidad de los trastornos psíquicos. Es fundamental recurrir a la salud mental y a los cambios psicológicos provocados por los cambios en el climaterio y proporcionar calidad de vida a estas mujeres.O climatério apresenta um conjunto de sinais e sintomas resultante da falência gradual da atividade ovariana, que demarca a transição do período reprodutivo para o não reprodutivo. Além de trazer transformações físicas e hormonais, este período torna as mulheres mais predispostas a irritabilidade e nervosismo. Neste contexto, este artigo teve como objetivo discutir as implicações psicológicas durante o climatério e sua repercussão na saúde da mulher. Para isso, realizou-se uma pesquisa bibliográfica nas bases de dados Lilacs e Scielo. A literatura aponta que diversas alterações psicológicas são encontradas durante o climatério, sendo elas: alterações comportamentais, alterações do humor, depressão, ansiedade, crises de choro, tristeza, desânimo, irritabilidade, labilidade emocional, insônia e alterações da memória, além da maior vulnerabilidade de transtornos psíquicos. É imprescindível voltar-se a atenção para a saúde mental e as alterações psicológicas ocasionada pelas mudanças advindas no climatério e proporcionar qualidade de vida para essas mulheres

    Brazilian Flora 2020: Leveraging the power of a collaborative scientific network

    International audienceThe shortage of reliable primary taxonomic data limits the description of biological taxa and the understanding of biodiversity patterns and processes, complicating biogeographical, ecological, and evolutionary studies. This deficit creates a significant taxonomic impediment to biodiversity research and conservation planning. The taxonomic impediment and the biodiversity crisis are widely recognized, highlighting the urgent need for reliable taxonomic data. Over the past decade, numerous countries worldwide have devoted considerable effort to Target 1 of the Global Strategy for Plant Conservation (GSPC), which called for the preparation of a working list of all known plant species by 2010 and an online world Flora by 2020. Brazil is a megadiverse country, home to more of the world's known plant species than any other country. Despite that, Flora Brasiliensis, concluded in 1906, was the last comprehensive treatment of the Brazilian flora. The lack of accurate estimates of the number of species of algae, fungi, and plants occurring in Brazil contributes to the prevailing taxonomic impediment and delays progress towards the GSPC targets. Over the past 12 years, a legion of taxonomists motivated to meet Target 1 of the GSPC, worked together to gather and integrate knowledge on the algal, plant, and fungal diversity of Brazil. Overall, a team of about 980 taxonomists joined efforts in a highly collaborative project that used cybertaxonomy to prepare an updated Flora of Brazil, showing the power of scientific collaboration to reach ambitious goals. This paper presents an overview of the Brazilian Flora 2020 and provides taxonomic and spatial updates on the algae, fungi, and plants found in one of the world's most biodiverse countries. We further identify collection gaps and summarize future goals that extend beyond 2020. Our results show that Brazil is home to 46,975 native species of algae, fungi, and plants, of which 19,669 are endemic to the country. The data compiled to date suggests that the Atlantic Rainforest might be the most diverse Brazilian domain for all plant groups except gymnosperms, which are most diverse in the Amazon. However, scientific knowledge of Brazilian diversity is still unequally distributed, with the Atlantic Rainforest and the Cerrado being the most intensively sampled and studied biomes in the country. In times of “scientific reductionism”, with botanical and mycological sciences suffering pervasive depreciation in recent decades, the first online Flora of Brazil 2020 significantly enhanced the quality and quantity of taxonomic data available for algae, fungi, and plants from Brazil. This project also made all the information freely available online, providing a firm foundation for future research and for the management, conservation, and sustainable use of the Brazilian funga and flora
