Risk factors for default from tuberculosis treatment in HIV-infected individuals in the state of Pernambuco, Brazil: a prospective cohort study
BACKGROUND: Concomitant treatment of Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) infection and tuberculosis (TB) presents a series of challenges for treatment compliance for both providers and patients. We carried out this study to identify risk factors for default from TB treatment in people living with HIV. METHODS: We conducted a cohort study to monitor HIV/TB co-infected subjects in Pernambuco, Brazil, on a monthly basis, until completion or default of treatment for TB. Logistic regression was used to calculate crude and adjusted odds ratios, 95% confidence intervals and P-values. RESULTS: From a cohort of 2310 HIV subjects, 390 individuals (16.9%) who had started treatment after a diagnosis of TB were selected, and data on 273 individuals who completed or defaulted on treatment for TB were analyzed. The default rate was 21.7% and the following risk factors were identified: male gender, smoking and CD4 T-cell count less than 200 cells/mm3. Age over 29 years, complete or incomplete secondary or university education and the use of highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) were identified as protective factors for the outcome. CONCLUSION: The results point to the need for more specific actions, aiming to reduce the default from TB treatment in males, younger adults with low education, smokers and people with CD4 T-cell counts < 200 cells/mm3. Default was less likely to occur in patients under HAART, reinforcing the strategy of early initiation of HAART in individuals with TB
How students perceive medical competences: a cross-cultural study between the Medical Course in Portugal and African Portuguese Speaking Countries
<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>A global effort has been made in the last years to establish a set of core competences that define the essential professional competence of a physician. Regardless of the environment, culture or medical education conditions, a set of core competences is required for medical practice worldwide. Evaluation of educational program is always needed to assure the best training for medical students and ultimately best care for patients. The aim of this study was to determine in what extent medical students in Portugal and Portuguese speaking African countries, felt they have acquired the core competences to start their clinical practice. For this reason, it was created a measurement tool to evaluate self-perceived competences, in different domains, across Portuguese and Portuguese-speaking African medical schools.</p> <p>Methods</p> <p>The information was collected through a questionnaire that defines the knowledge, attitudes and skills that future doctors should acquire. The Cronbach's Alpha and Principal Components Analysis (PCA) were used to evaluate the reliability of the questionnaire. In order to remove possible confounding effect, individual scores were standardized by country.</p> <p>Results</p> <p>The order of the domain's scores was similar between countries. After standardization, Personal Attitudes and Professional Behavior showed median scores above the country global median and Knowledge alone showed median score below the country global median. In Portugal, Clinical Skills showed score below the global median. In Angola, Clinical Skills and General Skills showed a similar result. There were only significant differences between countries in Personal Attitudes (p < 0.001) and Professional Behavior (p = 0.043).</p> <p>Conclusions</p> <p>The reliability of the instrument in Portuguese and Portuguese-speaking African medical schools was confirmed. Students have perceived their level of competence in personal attitudes in a high level and in opposite, knowledge and clinical skills with some weaknesses.</p

Inequalities in public water supply fluoridation in Brazil: An ecological study
Background. The literature is scarce on the social and geographic inequalities in the access to and implementation of the fluoridation of public water supplies. This study adds knowledge to the Brazilian experience of the chronic privation of water and wastewater policies, access to potable water and fluoridation in the country. Thus, the aim of this study was to verify possible inequalities in the population's access to fluoridated drinking water in 246 Brazilian municipalities. Methods. The information on the process of water fluoridation in the municipalities and in the macro region in which each municipality is located was obtained from the national epidemiological survey which was concluded in 2003. The data relating to the human development index at municipal level (HDI-M) and access to mains water came from the Brazilian Human Development Atlas, whilst the size of the population was obtained from a governmental source. The Fisher exact test (P < 0.05) was employed to identify significant associations between the explanatory variables and their ability to predict the principal outcomes of interest to this study, namely the presence or absence of the water fluoridation process in the municipalities as well as the length of time during which this measure has been implemented. Linear regression was used to observe the associations between the relevant variables in a multivariate environment. Results. The results clearly showed that there is a relationship between municipalities with larger populations, located in more socio-economically advantaged regions and with better HDI-M, and where fluoridation is both present and has been implemented for a longer period of time (started before 1990). Conclusion. The findings suggest that the aim of treating water with fluoride may not be being adequately achieved, requiring more effective strategies so that access to this measure can be expanded equitably.81Hart, J.T., The inverse care law (1971) Lancet, 1 (7696), pp. 405-12. , 4100731Victora, C.G., Vaughan, J.P., Barros, F.C., Silva, A.C., Tomasi, E., Explaining trends in inequities: Evidence from Brazilian child health studies (2000) Lancet, 356 (9235), pp. 1093-98. , 10.1016/S0140-6736(00)02741-0 11009159Basting, R.T., Pereira, A.C., Meneghim, M.C., Evaluation of dental caries prevalence in students from Piracicaba, SP, Brazil, after 25 years of fluoridation of the public water supply (1997) Rev Odontol Univ São Paulo, 11 (4), pp. 287-92. , 10.1590/S0103-06631997000400010Lawrence, H.P., Sheiham, A., Caries progression in 12 to 16-year-old schoolchildren in fluoridated and fluoride-deficient areas in Brazil (1997) Community Dent Oral Epidemiol, 25 (6), pp. 402-11. , 10.1111/j.1600-0528.1997.tb01730.x 9429812Pereira, A.C., Mialhe, F.L., Bianchini, F.L.C., Prevalence of caries and dental floozies in scholars from cities with different fluoride concentrations in drinking water (2001) Rev Bras Odontol Sade Coletiva, 2 (1), pp. 34-9For Disease Control, C., Prevention, Achievementsin Public Health, 1900-1999: Fluoridation of drinking water to prevent dental caries (1999) Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report, 48 (41), pp. 933-40For Disease Control, C., Prevention, Ten great public health achievements -United Sates, 1900-1999 (1999) Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report, 48 (12), pp. 241-3. , 10220250American Health Organization, P., XV Directing Council of the Pan American Health Organization - Resolutions, 1964, , http://www.paho.org/English/GOV/CD/ftcd_15.htm(2003) The World Oral Health Report 2003, , http://www.who.int/oral_health, Geneva: WHOMcDonagh, M.S., Whiting, P.F., Wilson, P.M., Sutton, A.J., Chestnutt, I., Cooper, J., Misso, K., Kleijnen, J., Systematic review of water fluoridation (2000) BMJ, 321 (7265), pp. 855-9. , 11021861 10.1136/bmj.321.7265.855Bratthall, D., Hänsel-Petersson, G., Sundberg, H., Reasons for the caries decline: What do the experts believe?
