    The type of birth can alter the composition of the human intestinal microbiota and crucially interfere in the formation of the innate and adaptive immune system. Among the various cell groups that can be modulated by the type of delivery are helper T cells (Th). Currently, in addition to the classic Th1 and Th2 profile, other subsets have been identified including Th17, Th22, Th25 and Th9.  Studies on the modulation of T helper lymphocytes associated with the type of birth are still emerging. However, it is known that the action of Th9 cells is modulated according to the intestinal microbiota. Thus, this study aimed to describe how the type of birth, vaginal or cesarean, can change the intestinal microbiota and we hypothesized that the form of delivery changes the pattern of response to Th9 in allergic diseases.

    Cervical cancer is the type of cancer that most kills women in the world. This study aimed to analyze the scientific evidence of health education to prevent cervical cancer. This is an integrative review of the literature, carried out through the databases of the BVS and PUBMED, in which the following guiding question was used: “What scientific evidence points to health education as a way of preventing cervical cancer?”. Studies available in full, in portuguese, english and spanish, published from 2017 to 2022 were used. Ten studies were selected to compose this review. According to the studies analyzed, it was identified that the triggering factors of cervical cancer are early sexual intercourse, unprotected sexual intercourse, multiple sexual partners, HPV infections, and use of hormonal contraceptives. Health education activities such as lectures, conversation circles, home visits are relevant, as they bring knowledge to women about the neoplasm, encouraging the practice of self-care, as well as helping to deconstruct stigmas and fears related to the Pap smear. It was evidenced that the scarcity of information about CC and the ways to prevent the disease cause fears and apprehensions for many women, which contributes to a delay in carrying out the Pap smear. Thus, health education strategies, with clarification of doubts about the disease and forms of prevention, addressing the availability of health services for early screening, are essential measures to break the taboo associated with performing the test.El cáncer de cuello uterino es el tipo de cáncer que más mata a las mujeres en el mundo. Este estudio tuvo como objetivo analizar la evidencia científica de la educación en salud como una forma de prevención del cáncer de cuello uterino. Se trata de una revisión integrativa de la literatura, realizada a través de las bases de datos de la BVS y PUBMED, en la que se utilizó la siguiente pregunta orientadora: “¿Qué evidencia científica apunta a la educación en salud como forma de prevención del cáncer de cuello uterino? ¿útero?”. Se utilizaron estudios disponibles en su totalidad, en portugués, inglés y español, publicados entre 2017 y 2022. Se seleccionaron diez estudios para componer esta revisión. De acuerdo con los estudios analizados, se identificó que los factores desencadenantes del cáncer de cuello uterino son el inicio temprano de la vida sexual, las relaciones sexuales sin protección, las múltiples parejas sexuales, las infecciones por VPH y el uso de anticonceptivos hormonales. Las actividades de educación en salud, como charlas, círculos de conversación, visitas domiciliarias, son relevantes, ya que acercan el conocimiento a las mujeres sobre la neoplasia, incentivando la práctica del autocuidado, además de ayudar a deconstruir estigmas y miedos relacionados con el Papanicolaou. Se evidenció que la escasez de informaciones sobre CC y formas de prevención de la enfermedad provocan temores y aprensiones en muchas mujeres, lo que contribuye a la demora en la realización del Papanicolaou. Así, las estrategias de educación en salud, con aclaración de dudas sobre la enfermedad y formas de prevención, abordando la disponibilidad de los servicios de salud para realizar el tamizaje precoz, son medidas esenciales para romper el tabú asociado al examen.O câncer de colo de útero é o tipo de câncer que mais mata mulheres no mundo. Este estudo teve por objetivo, analisar as evidências científicas da educação em saúde como forma de prevenção do câncer de colo de útero. Trata-se de uma revisão integrativa da literatura, realizada através das bases de dados da BVS e da PUBMED, na qual se utilizou a seguinte questão norteadora: “Quais as evidências científicas apontam para educação em saúde como forma de prevenção do câncer de colo de útero?”. Utilizaram-se estudos disponíveis na íntegra, nos idiomas português, inglês e espanhol, publicados de 2017 a 2022. Foram selecionados 10 estudos para compor esta revisão. Conforme os estudos analisados, foi identificado que os fatores desencadeantes do câncer de colo do útero são, início da vida sexual precoce, relação sexual desprotegida, múltiplos parceiros sexuais, infecções pelo HPV, e uso de contraceptivos hormonais. As atividades de educação em saúde como palestras, rodas de conversas, visitas domiciliares se mostram relevantes, pois levam conhecimento para as mulheres acerca da neoplasia, incentivando a prática do autocuidado, bem como auxilia na desconstrução de estigmas e receios relacionados ao exame citopatológico. Evidenciou-se que a escassez de informações sobre o CCU e as formas de prevenção da doença provocam medos e receios para muitas mulheres, no qual contribui para um retardo na realização do exame citopatológico. Assim, estratégias de educação em saúde, com esclarecimento de dúvidas sobre a doença e as formas de prevenção, abordando a disponibilidade dos serviços de saúde para realização do rastreamento precoce, são medidas imprescindíveis para quebrar o tabu associado à realização do exame

    ATLANTIC EPIPHYTES: a data set of vascular and non-vascular epiphyte plants and lichens from the Atlantic Forest

    Epiphytes are hyper-diverse and one of the frequently undervalued life forms in plant surveys and biodiversity inventories. Epiphytes of the Atlantic Forest, one of the most endangered ecosystems in the world, have high endemism and radiated recently in the Pliocene. We aimed to (1) compile an extensive Atlantic Forest data set on vascular, non-vascular plants (including hemiepiphytes), and lichen epiphyte species occurrence and abundance; (2) describe the epiphyte distribution in the Atlantic Forest, in order to indicate future sampling efforts. Our work presents the first epiphyte data set with information on abundance and occurrence of epiphyte phorophyte species. All data compiled here come from three main sources provided by the authors: published sources (comprising peer-reviewed articles, books, and theses), unpublished data, and herbarium data. We compiled a data set composed of 2,095 species, from 89,270 holo/hemiepiphyte records, in the Atlantic Forest of Brazil, Argentina, Paraguay, and Uruguay, recorded from 1824 to early 2018. Most of the records were from qualitative data (occurrence only, 88%), well distributed throughout the Atlantic Forest. For quantitative records, the most common sampling method was individual trees (71%), followed by plot sampling (19%), and transect sampling (10%). Angiosperms (81%) were the most frequently registered group, and Bromeliaceae and Orchidaceae were the families with the greatest number of records (27,272 and 21,945, respectively). Ferns and Lycophytes presented fewer records than Angiosperms, and Polypodiaceae were the most recorded family, and more concentrated in the Southern and Southeastern regions. Data on non-vascular plants and lichens were scarce, with a few disjunct records concentrated in the Northeastern region of the Atlantic Forest. For all non-vascular plant records, Lejeuneaceae, a family of liverworts, was the most recorded family. We hope that our effort to organize scattered epiphyte data help advance the knowledge of epiphyte ecology, as well as our understanding of macroecological and biogeographical patterns in the Atlantic Forest.

    Significant progress in the area of animal production is due to the development of researches on genetics, environment, health, management and nutrition. The search for better management conditions that benefit animal welfare resulted in changes to the installation. The genetic improvement more productive animals has encouraged the number of searches to reduce the incidence of diseases, mainly of metabolic origin. The incorporation in products with higher bioavailability as industrial amino acid and organic minerals, the inclusion of products modifiers enteric of microflora as probiotic, prebiotic, symbiotic, nucleotides and exogenous enzymes, has benefited the use of nutrients are not well absorbed and often unavailable in the diet. Biotechnology latest as nutrition in egg and molecular biology has been used for the benefit of the increase animal productivity
