Efeito da Analgesia Preventiva na Redução da Dor Pós-Operatória: Uma Análise Abrangente

This article explores the significant intersection between anesthesia and chronic pain therapy in cancer patients, highlighting the importance of these approaches in the context of treating various neoplastic conditions. Anesthesia plays a crucial role in surgical procedures and therapeutic interventions, requiring a comprehensive analysis of available options to ensure the safety and comfort of patients. When considering different anesthetic techniques, the goal is to provide healthcare professionals with an in-depth understanding of the latest and most effective strategies, taking into account factors such as postoperative recovery and acute pain management. The choice of anesthetic approach in cancer patients is multifaceted, influenced by variables such as the type of intervention, the patient's overall health, and the specificities of the neoplastic condition. In this context, the comparative analysis of different anesthetic techniques, such as regional and general approaches, becomes essential to ensure treatment effectiveness and minimize adverse impacts. Furthermore, chronic pain therapy in cancer patients is a complex challenge that requires an integrated approach. This article examines various therapeutic modalities, from pharmacological interventions to non-pharmacological methods, with the aim of providing valuable insights to optimize chronic pain management and improve post-treatment quality of life. Understanding the complexities and nuances of these therapies is essential to ensure comprehensive and personalized care for cancer patients, emphasizing the importance of a holistic approach in managing chronic pain in an oncological context. Finally, this article seeks to consolidate up-to-date information on anesthesia and chronic pain therapy in cancer patients, offering a critical review of available scientific literature. The goal is to contribute to the continuous development of clinical practices in this area, promoting the effectiveness of procedures and improving the quality of life for patients facing this challenging condition.Este artigo explora a significativa interseção entre a anestesia e a terapia de dor crônica em pacientes oncológicos, destacando a importância dessas abordagens no contexto do tratamento de diversas condições neoplásicas. A anestesia desempenha um papel crucial em procedimentos cirúrgicos e intervenções terapêuticas, exigindo uma análise abrangente das opções disponíveis para garantir a segurança e o conforto dos pacientes. Ao considerar diferentes técnicas anestésicas, o objetivo é fornecer aos profissionais de saúde uma visão aprofundada das estratégias mais recentes e eficazes, levando em conta fatores como a recuperação pós-operatória e o manejo da dor aguda. A escolha da abordagem anestésica em pacientes oncológicos é multifacetada, influenciada por variáveis como o tipo de intervenção, estado de saúde geral do paciente e especificidades da condição neoplásica. Neste contexto, a análise comparativa de diferentes técnicas anestésicas, como abordagens regionais e gerais, torna-se essencial para garantir a eficácia do tratamento e minimizar os impactos adversos. Além disso, a terapia de dor crônica em pacientes oncológicos é um desafio complexo que requer uma abordagem integrada. Este artigo examina diversas modalidades terapêuticas, desde intervenções farmacológicas até métodos não farmacológicos, com o intuito de fornecer insights valiosos para otimizar o manejo da dor crônica e melhorar a qualidade de vida pós-tratamento. A compreensão das complexidades e nuances dessas terapias é essencial para garantir um cuidado abrangente e personalizado aos pacientes oncológicos, destacando a importância de uma abordagem holística na gestão da dor crônica em contexto oncológico. Por fim, este artigo busca consolidar informações atualizadas sobre anestesia e terapia de dor crônica em pacientes oncológicos, oferecendo uma revisão crítica da literatura científica disponível. O objetivo é contribuir para o desenvolvimento contínuo das práticas clínicas nessa área, promovendo a eficácia dos procedimentos e a melhoria da qualidade de vida para os pacientes que enfrentam essa condição desafiadora. &nbsp

NEOTROPICAL ALIEN MAMMALS: a data set of occurrence and abundance of alien mammals in the Neotropics

Biological invasion is one of the main threats to native biodiversity. For a species to become invasive, it must be voluntarily or involuntarily introduced by humans into a nonnative habitat. Mammals were among first taxa to be introduced worldwide for game, meat, and labor, yet the number of species introduced in the Neotropics remains unknown. In this data set, we make available occurrence and abundance data on mammal species that (1) transposed a geographical barrier and (2) were voluntarily or involuntarily introduced by humans into the Neotropics. Our data set is composed of 73,738 historical and current georeferenced records on alien mammal species of which around 96% correspond to occurrence data on 77 species belonging to eight orders and 26 families. Data cover 26 continental countries in the Neotropics, ranging from Mexico and its frontier regions (southern Florida and coastal-central Florida in the southeast United States) to Argentina, Paraguay, Chile, and Uruguay, and the 13 countries of Caribbean islands. Our data set also includes neotropical species (e.g., Callithrix sp., Myocastor coypus, Nasua nasua) considered alien in particular areas of Neotropics. The most numerous species in terms of records are from Bos sp. (n = 37,782), Sus scrofa (n = 6,730), and Canis familiaris (n = 10,084); 17 species were represented by only one record (e.g., Syncerus caffer, Cervus timorensis, Cervus unicolor, Canis latrans). Primates have the highest number of species in the data set (n = 20 species), partly because of uncertainties regarding taxonomic identification of the genera Callithrix, which includes the species Callithrix aurita, Callithrix flaviceps, Callithrix geoffroyi, Callithrix jacchus, Callithrix kuhlii, Callithrix penicillata, and their hybrids. This unique data set will be a valuable source of information on invasion risk assessments, biodiversity redistribution and conservation-related research. There are no copyright restrictions.
