El padre en el contexto de la depresión posparto materna : ¿y seis años después, qué lugar ocupa ese padre?

A partir das proposições de Winnicott, o presente estudo teve como objetivo compreender o lugar do pai em dois diferentes momentos do desenvolvimento infantil: no primeiro ano de vida do bebê, no contexto de depressão pós-parto materna, e, posteriormente, no sexto ano de vida da criança. Participaram deste estudo duas famílias que, no momento inicial, realizaram uma psicoterapia breve pais-bebê e, no segundo momento, participaram de um processo de follow up. Os resultados obtidos indicaram que, no primeiro ano de vida dos bebês, os pais constituíram um bom relacionamento com seus bebês e puderam compreender a necessidade de intensa dedicação da mãe ao bebê, porém não forneceram todo o suporte necessário às esposas naquele momento e contexto. As sutis dificuldades observadas no primeiro ano de vida dos bebês, relativas ao papel que se esperaria desses pais, mostraram-se ainda evidentes no sexto ano de vida das crianças.Based on Winnicott’s propositions, the present study aimed to understand fatherhood at two different stages of child development: in the first year of the infant’s life, in the context of postpartum depression, and later in the child’s sixth year of life. Two families participated in this study, which, at the initial moment, underwent a Brief Parent-infant Psychotherapy and, at the second moment, participated in a follow up process. The results obtained indicated that in the first year of the infant’s life, the fathers constituted a good relationship with their infants and could understand the need for intense dedication from mother to infant, but they did not provide all the necessary holding to their wives at that moment and context. The subtle difficulties observed in the first year of infant’s life, concerning the expected place of fatherhood, were still evident in the sixth year of the children’s life

Evaluation of physicochemical and microbiological stability of liquid preparation from tizanidine hydrochloride tablets - a Hospital concern

Tizanidine hydrochloride is a centrally acting skeletal muscle relaxant, used in the management of spasticity. This drug is commercially available only as tablets, which highlights the need to develop oral liquid formulations. In the hospital environment, this aspect is circumvented by the preparation of suspensions, to allow administration to children and adults with impaired swallowing, but there are no data regarding their stability. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the physicochemical andmicrobiological stability of liquid dosage forms prepared in the hospital environment from tizanidine hydrochloride tablets, applying high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and microbiological analysis. A simple and stability-indicating HPLC method was developed and validated for specificity, linearity, limits of detection and quantification, precision, accuracy and robustness. The liquid formulations were placed in amber PET and glass bottles, which were stored under three different conditions: at room temperature, under refrigeration and at 40 ºC. The liquid formulations were analyzed and demonstrated chemical stability for 56 days, allowing their use for long periods. However, the determination of microbiological stability showed that these formulations are prone to microbial contamination, which has dramatically reduced its stability to 7 days, in both bottles and at all evaluated temperatures

IMPACTS AND CONTRIBUTIONS OF MEDITATIVE PRACTICES ON UNIVERSITY STUDENTS: AN INTEGRATIVE REVIEW

Objetivo: Este estudo tem como objetivo analisar artigos publicados de 2015até 2019 sobre os impactos e contribuições da meditação na saúde mental e emocional durante o período acadêmico. Materiais e Métodos: Trata-se de uma revisão integrativa, no qual foram analisados artigos disponíveis na base de dados Biblioteca Virtual em Saúde. Foi utilizado os seguintes critérios de inclusão: artigos completos, publicados de 2015 a 2019 e possuir como assunto principal a meditação, estudantes, estudantes de enfermagem, estudantes de medicina, ansiedade, e como critério de exclusão artigos repetidos ou com fuga do tema. Resultados: Foram encontrados 78 artigos e após critérios de inclusão restaram 24, sendo utilizados 07 artigos para análise após leitura criteriosa. Discussão: Foram observados nos estudos impactos e contribuições importantes após o desenvolvimento de práticas meditativas nos estudantes. À medida que estas práticas se tornam frequentes, estudos confirmam maiores benefícios para os praticantes da meditação. Conclusão: Os estudos revelam que a meditação tem impacto na saúde mental e emocional dos estudantes universitários estando relacionada a redução dos sintomas de depressão e ansiedade, prevenção e diminuição do estresse e do cansaço, bom desempenho cognitivo, melhora do sono, de atenção, do estado de consciência, de humor e empatia

Pervasive gaps in Amazonian ecological research

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
