Defesa: Curitiba, 22/12/2003Inclui bibliografiaResumo: Esta dissertação pretende analisar a problemática da erradicação do trabalho infantil a partir dos discursos que se produziram ao longo da história moderna, relativos às descrições de infância e dos contextos que separam o mundo adulto do mundo infantil, ou, ao retrato da construção social do que representa a infância: o mundo do trabalho como retrato do universo adulto e a educação formal (escola) como síntese da vida em formação. Os pressupostos da educação formal e do trabalho norteiam as discussões que embasam os discursos a partir dos quais, a reprodução de valores inerentes ao sistema capitalista e suas contradições, evidenciam a necessidade de se elaborar um problema social, o qual necessita de descrição, avaliação e intervenção. Ao trazer a problemática da construção do trabalho infantil como problema social, esta pesquisa pretende analisar o processo histórico da construção da problemática do trabalho infantil retratado como um problema que deve ser exterminado, segundo os discursos, tendo como base categorias trabalho e infância. Pretende ainda, compreender o contexto histórico e socioeconômico no qual o trabalho infantil passou a ser combatido como um problema social, mais precisamente no Brasil, por meio de políticas públicas, bem como, identificar no processo do que se denomina de erradicação, a garantia do controle da formação de mão-de-obra, através dos programas voltados aos jovens e às crianças pobres e vulneráveis. Por fim, esta pesquisa lança uma reflexão sobre a necessidade de participação das crianças na elaboração de documentos ou iniciativas, que garantam os direitos da infância e da adolescência e que as mesmas possam escolher dentro de suas respectivas realidades, como traçar seus destinos. A pesquisa tem como base a coleta de dados documentais que evidenciam o pressuposto de trabalho infantil como um problema social, bem como, as contradições no discurso da erradicação, contemplando documentos do PETI (Programa de Erradicação do Trabalho Infantil), do Fórum Nacional de Prevenção e Erradicação do Trabalho Infantil e do ECA (Estatuto da Criança e do Adolescente), além de participações nas reuniões do Fórum, em Curitiba, na Procuradoria Regional do Trabalho, durante o ano de 2002

Sexual Behaviour and HPV Infections in 18 to 29 Year Old Women in the Pre-Vaccine Era in the Netherlands

Contains fulltext : 71058.pdf ( ) (Open Access)BACKGROUND: Infection with Human Papillomavirus (HPV) is a necessary event in the multi-step process of cervical carcinogenesis. Little is known about the natural history of HPV infection among unscreened young adults. As prophylactic vaccines are being developed to prevent specifically HPV 16 and 18 infections, shifts in prevalence in the post vaccine era may be expected. This study provides a unique opportunity to gather baseline data before changes by nationwide vaccination occur. METHODS AND PRINCIPAL FINDINGS: This cross-sectional study is part of a large prospective epidemiologic study performed among 2065 unscreened women aged 18 to 29 years. Women returned a self-collected cervico-vaginal specimen and filled out a questionnaire. All HPV DNA-positive samples (by SPF(10) DEIA) were genotyped using the INNO-LiPA HPV genotyping assay. HPV point prevalence in this sample was 19%. Low and high risk HPV prevalence was 9.1% and 11.8%, respectively. A single HPV-type was detected in 14.9% of all women, while multiple types were found in 4.1%. HPV-types 16 (2.8%) and 18 (1.4%) were found concomitantly in only 3 women (0.1%). There was an increase in HPV prevalence till 22 years. Multivariate analysis showed that number of lifetime sexual partners was the most powerful predictor of HPV positivity, followed by type of relationship, frequency of sexual contact, age, and number of sexual partners over the past 6 months. CONCLUSIONS AND SIGNIFICANCE: This study shows that factors independently associated with HPV prevalence are mainly related to sexual behaviour. Combination of these results with the relative low prevalence of HPV 16 and/or 18 may be promising for expanding the future target group for catch up vaccination. Furthermore, these results provide a basis for research on possible future shifts in HPV genotype prevalence, and enable a better estimate of the effect of HPV 16-18 vaccination on cervical cancer incidence

Assessment of Human Papillomavirus in Lung Tumor Tissue

Background Lung cancer kills more than 1 million people worldwide each year. Whereas several human papillomavirus (HPV)-associated cancers have been identified, the role of HPV in lung carcinogenesis remains controversial. Methods We selected 450 lung cancer patients from an Italian population-based case-control study, the Environment and Genetics in Lung Cancer Etiology. These patients were selected from those with an adequate number of unstained tissue sections and included all those who had never smoked and a random sample of the remaining patients. We used real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) to test specimens from these patients for HPV DNA, specifically for E6 gene sequences from HPV16 and E7 gene sequences from HPV18. We also tested a subset of 92 specimens from all never-smokers and a random selection of smokers for additional HPV types by a PCR-based test for at least 54 mucosal HPV genotypes. DNA was extracted from ethanol- or formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded tumor tissue under strict PCR clean conditions. The prevalence of HPV in tumor tissue was investigated. Results Specimens from 399 of 450 patients had adequate DNA for analysis. Most patients were current (220 patients or 48.9%) smokers, and 92 patients (20.4%) were women. When HPV16 and HPV18 type-specific primers were used, two specimens were positive for HPV16 at low copy number but were negative on additional type-specific HPV16 testing. Neither these specimens nor the others examined for a broad range of HPV types were positive for any HPV type. Conclusions When DNA contamination was avoided and state-of-the-art highly sensitive HPV DNA detection assays were used, we found no evidence that HPV was associated with lung cancer in a representative Western population. Our results provide the strongest evidence to date to rule out a role for HPV in lung carcinogenesis in Western populations

International Standard reagents for harmonization of HPV serology and DNA assays - an update

International reference materials such as International Standard reagents facilitate quality assurance of essential biopharmaceutical products and related in vitro diagnostic tests. Standardization of antibody and DNA measurements and harmonization of laboratory procedures are key to the success of cancer prevention strategies through screening methods as well as for development and implementation of vaccination against the human papillomavirus (HPV). The WHO supported the preparation and initial analysis of a panel of candidate serological and DNA reference reagents aimed at facilitating inter-laboratory comparisons and detection of HPV worldwide. Two international collaborative studies assessed the performance of various HPV antibody and HPV-DNA detection assays and examined the feasibility of generating HPV antibody and DNA standard reagents. These studies showed that improvement in performance and comparability of assays is urgently needed and that the use of the same International Standard reference reagent could significantly improve performance and comparability. It is hoped that the establishment of International Units and International Standards for HPV antibody and DNA analysis will be pursued with high priority. (c) 2006 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved
