    This article aims to scan the current medical literature on the relationship between teenage pregnancy and prematurity. With the purpose of achieving answers to the following question: “What are the associated factors of teenage pregnancy and prematurity of newborns?”, It was carried out through consultations in indexed databases, with the crossing of the descriptors in Portuguese “Pregnancy ”, “adolescents”, “Premature Newborn” and “factors”, using the Boolean operator “AND”. To compose the review, 10 articles were analyzed. It is concluded that neonatal prematurity is associated with a multifactorial process that involves both biological and sociodemographic factors, highlighting biological immaturity as a significant component. Young gynecological age, defined as conception within the first two years after menarche, and the risk of becoming pregnant before completing adequate physical and biological development. These elements combined contribute to the complexity of the phenomenon of neonatal prematurity.Este artigo tem por objetivo realizar uma varredura da literatura médica vigente sobre a relação entre a gravidez na adolescência e a prematuridade. Com a finalidade de alcançar respostas ao seguinte questionamento: “Quais são os fatores associados da gestação na adolescência e prematuridade dos recém-nascidos? ”, foi realizada por meio de consultas nas bases de dados indexadas, com o cruzamento dos descritores em português “Gravidez”, “adolescentes”, “Recém-Nascido Prematuro” e “fatores”, através do operador booleano “AND”.  Para compor a revisão  foram analisados 10 artigos. Conclui-se que a prematuridade neonatal está associada a um processo multifatorial que envolve tanto fatores biológicos quanto sociodemográficos, destacando-se a imaturidade biológica como um componente significativo. A idade ginecológica jovem, definida como a concepção nos dois primeiros anos após a menarca, e o risco de engravidar antes de completar o desenvolvimento físico e biológico adequado. Esses elementos combinados contribuem para a complexidade do fenômeno da prematuridade neonatal

    Breast cancer is characterized by the abnormal, rapid and disordered proliferation of breast tissue cells. The disease develops as a result of genetic changes. In its normal functioning, the body replaced old cells with new, healthy cells. Objective: To investigate the clinical and epidemiological scenario of mortality from breast neoplasms between the years 2019 and 2023. Methodology: This is an epidemiological study, of descriptive character with information obtained through the Hospital Admissions System by the Department of Informatics of the Unified Health System (DATASUS), analyzing the epidemiological scenario of mortality due to malignant breast neoplasms in Brazil, in a time frame from 2019 to 2023, filtered according to the International Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems (ICD-10), the code used was Malignant breast neoplasms. Data on deaths due to malignant breast neoplasms were analyzed in Brazil, which presented a number of 29,820 deaths. Results and Discussion: Data on mortality from malignant breast neoplasms between 2019 and 2023 were analyzed, where it was possible to estimate 2.1 million new cases of cancer and 627 thousand deaths from the disease. The year 2022 presented the highest death rate with a number of 6,246, among the age groups analyzed the highest rates are between 40 and 69 years old with a higher percentage among the white race. The southeast region leads the ranking with 16,351 deaths. Conclusion: It is understood that some factors may be directly associated with the high number of deaths from malignant neoplasms caused by breast cancer, such as age group. Investment in health education is necessary to inform society about the importance of breast cancer care and screening. Screening strategies will help reduce cases of neoplasms and act to reduce the number of deaths, thus ensuring early diagnosis. .O câncer de mama se caracteriza pela proliferação anormal de forma rápida e desordenada das células do tecido mamário.

    This article aims to highlight calcium supplementation in the prevention of gestational hypertensive disorders. This is an integrative review, using the databases indexed in the Virtual Health Library (VHL): MEDLINE, SciELO, BDENF-Enfermagem and LILACS, using the descriptors: “Calcium supplementation”, “prevention”, “disorders hypertensive disorders during pregnancy” and “gestational hypertension”, in order to answer the question “What is the relevance of calcium supplementation in the prevention of gestational hypertensive disorders?”. As a result, calcium supplementation during pregnancy has shown promise for implementation in prenatal care protocols in view of the vulnerable population with low calcium nutritional intake, thus seeking to promote the prevention of hypertensive disorders in the perinatal period. . Concluding that through literature that supplementation in a guided manner and accompanied by trained health professionals, age reduces maternal gestational hypertension and, consequently, the risk of pre-eclampsia, in women with low previous calcium deficiency. However, although calcium supplementation appears to reduce blood pressure directly, it does not prevent endothelial damage associated with preeclampsia.Este artigo tem por visa evidenciar a suplementação de cálcio na prevenção dos distúrbios hipertensivos gestacional. Trata-se de uma revisão integrativa, foram utilizadas as bases de dados indexadas na Biblioteca Virtual em Saúde (BVS): MEDLINE, SciELO, BDENF-Enfermagem e LILACS, através dos descritores: “Suplementação de cálcio”, “prevenção”, “distúrbios hipertensivos na gravidez” e “hipertensão gestacional”, afim de alcançar a respota do questionamento” Qual a relevância da suplementação do cálcio na prevenção de distúrbios hipertensivos gestacional?”. Resultando em que a suplemntação de cálcio na gestacação vem mostrando-se promissor para a implementação em protocolos de atenção ao pré-natal tendo em vista a população vulnerável com baixa ingesta de nutricional de cálcio, buscando assim promover a prevenção de distúrbios hipertensivos no período perinatal. Concluindo que mediante a literatura que a suplementação de forma orientada e acompanhada por profissionais de saúde capacitados age reduzindo hipertensão gestacional materna e, consequentemente, o risco de pré-eclâmpsia, em mulheres com baixa ingestão de cálcio prévia. Entretanto, apesar de a suplementação de cálcio parecer reduzir a pressão sanguínea diretamente, não impede a lesão endotelial associada à pré-eclâmpsia

    Biodiversity loss is one of the main challenges of our time,1,2 and attempts to address it require a clear un derstanding of how ecological communities respond to environmental change across time and space.3,4 While the increasing availability of global databases on ecological communities has advanced our knowledge of biodiversity sensitivity to environmental changes,5–7 vast areas of the tropics remain understudied.8–11 In the American tropics, Amazonia stands out as the world’s most diverse rainforest and the primary source of Neotropical biodiversity,12 but it remains among the least known forests in America and is often underrepre sented in biodiversity databases.13–15 To worsen this situation, human-induced modifications16,17 may elim inate pieces of the Amazon’s biodiversity puzzle before we can use them to understand how ecological com munities are responding. To increase generalization and applicability of biodiversity knowledge,18,19 it is thus crucial to reduce biases in ecological research, particularly in regions projected to face the most pronounced environmental changes. We integrate ecological community metadata of 7,694 sampling sites for multiple or ganism groups in a machine learning model framework to map the research probability across the Brazilian Amazonia, while identifying the region’s vulnerability to environmental change. 15%–18% of the most ne glected areas in ecological research are expected to experience severe climate or land use changes by 2050. This means that unless we take immediate action, we will not be able to establish their current status, much less monitor how it is changing and what is being lostinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersio
