Os usos e usuários de arquivos literários femininos: uma análise a partir dos acervos custodiados pelo Arquivo do Instituto de Estudos Brasileiros (IEB):

Este artigo investiga quem são os usuários dos arquivos literários femininos custodiados pelo arquivo do Instituto de Estudos Brasileiros (IEB) e quais têm sido os produtos gerados a partir do estudo e da consulta desses documentos. Para isso, esta pesquisa compreende os fundos arquivísticos das escritoras Lupe Cotrim Garaude (1933-1970) e Odette de Barros Mött (1913-1998), utilizando, como método, a pesquisa documental, a fim de localizar produções a respeito das duas personalidades, assim como dados referentes ao perfil dos autores desses estudos. A partir das informações obtidas, observou-se que os arquivos literários femininos do IEB têm sido estudados por mulheres. Essas pesquisadoras, das áreas de Letras e Literatura, geralmente são vinculadas ao IEB e/ou desfrutam de apoio financeiro, o que permite o desenvolvimento de seus trabalhos e, também, a organização e catalogação do acervo. Essas evidências nos permitem concluir que ainda são poucos os estudos publicados a respeito desses arquivos, havendo necessidade da implementação de uma política mais efetiva para a divulgação dos acervos, de modo a conceder, inclusive, maior visibilidade aos arquivos literários femininos.This article investigates who are the users of the women’s literary archives held by the Institute of Brazilian Studies (IEB) and what have been the products generated from their consultation and use. By means of a documentary research, this study examines the archival funds of writers Lupe Cotrim Garaude (1933-1970) and Odette de Barros Mött (1913-1998) to locate productions concerning the two personalities, as well as data on the profile of the authors of these papers. Results show that IEB’s women’s literary archives have been studied by women. These Literature researchers are usually linked to the IEB and/or enjoy financial support, which allows them to develop their academic research and also to organize and catalogue the archive. Such evidence reveals how few studies were published about these archives, pointing to the need for a more effective policy for disseminating collections to grant greater visibility to women’s literary archives

Obesidade na atualidade: abordagem das principais consequências a longo prazo

Introdução: A obesidade é uma doença de etiologia multifatorial, se apresentando como uma das mais prevalentes síndromes do mundo. Tal condição pode ser definida como excesso de gordura corporal, mensurada pelo IMC. A moléstia pode apresentar diversas repercussões negativas no bem-estar do indivíduo, como doenças metabólicas e cardiovasculares, além de prejuízos sociais e psicológicos. Objetivo: O presente estudo teve como objetivo realizar uma revisão narrativa acerca das principais consequências da obesidade a longo prazo. Método: Trata-se de uma revisão narrativa com buscas na Scielo, Pubmed e Lilacs, no período de 2012 a 2022, utilizando os termos chave: “obesidade”, “consequências”, “evolução médica”, “obesity” e “consequences”. Resultados: Foram selecionados 10 artigos no total, sendo 4 na Scielo, 4 no Pubmed e 2 na Lilacs, por corresponderem ao objetivo do trabalho. Discussão: A principal consequência da obesidade se apresenta nos distúrbios metabólicos, com destaque para a Diabetes tipo 2, devido ao aumento da inflamação e, portanto, da resistência à insulina. Outros impactos repercutem na osteoartrite, diversos tipos de câncer, doença renal crônica e condições que podem levar a pessoa acometida a óbito. Indivíduos obesos estão vulneráveis a questões sociais, como isolamento e discriminação e podem, portanto, desenvolver doenças psicológicas. Conclusão: Conclui-se que a obesidade deve ser tratada de forma multidisciplinar, sugerindo novos estudos relacionados aos prejuízos laborais sofridos pelos trabalhadores obesos

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

Height and body-mass index trajectories of school-aged children and adolescents from 1985 to 2019 in 200 countries and territories: a pooled analysis of 2181 population-based studies with 65 million participants

Summary Background Comparable global data on health and nutrition of school-aged children and adolescents are scarce. We aimed to estimate age trajectories and time trends in mean height and mean body-mass index (BMI), which measures weight gain beyond what is expected from height gain, for school-aged children and adolescents. Methods For this pooled analysis, we used a database of cardiometabolic risk factors collated by the Non-Communicable Disease Risk Factor Collaboration. We applied a Bayesian hierarchical model to estimate trends from 1985 to 2019 in mean height and mean BMI in 1-year age groups for ages 5–19 years. The model allowed for non-linear changes over time in mean height and mean BMI and for non-linear changes with age of children and adolescents, including periods of rapid growth during adolescence. Findings We pooled data from 2181 population-based studies, with measurements of height and weight in 65 million participants in 200 countries and territories. In 2019, we estimated a difference of 20 cm or higher in mean height of 19-year-old adolescents between countries with the tallest populations (the Netherlands, Montenegro, Estonia, and Bosnia and Herzegovina for boys; and the Netherlands, Montenegro, Denmark, and Iceland for girls) and those with the shortest populations (Timor-Leste, Laos, Solomon Islands, and Papua New Guinea for boys; and Guatemala, Bangladesh, Nepal, and Timor-Leste for girls). In the same year, the difference between the highest mean BMI (in Pacific island countries, Kuwait, Bahrain, The Bahamas, Chile, the USA, and New Zealand for both boys and girls and in South Africa for girls) and lowest mean BMI (in India, Bangladesh, Timor-Leste, Ethiopia, and Chad for boys and girls; and in Japan and Romania for girls) was approximately 9–10 kg/m2. In some countries, children aged 5 years started with healthier height or BMI than the global median and, in some cases, as healthy as the best performing countries, but they became progressively less healthy compared with their comparators as they grew older by not growing as tall (eg, boys in Austria and Barbados, and girls in Belgium and Puerto Rico) or gaining too much weight for their height (eg, girls and boys in Kuwait, Bahrain, Fiji, Jamaica, and Mexico; and girls in South Africa and New Zealand). In other countries, growing children overtook the height of their comparators (eg, Latvia, Czech Republic, Morocco, and Iran) or curbed their weight gain (eg, Italy, France, and Croatia) in late childhood and adolescence. When changes in both height and BMI were considered, girls in South Korea, Vietnam, Saudi Arabia, Turkey, and some central Asian countries (eg, Armenia and Azerbaijan), and boys in central and western Europe (eg, Portugal, Denmark, Poland, and Montenegro) had the healthiest changes in anthropometric status over the past 3·5 decades because, compared with children and adolescents in other countries, they had a much larger gain in height than they did in BMI. The unhealthiest changes—gaining too little height, too much weight for their height compared with children in other countries, or both—occurred in many countries in sub-Saharan Africa, New Zealand, and the USA for boys and girls; in Malaysia and some Pacific island nations for boys; and in Mexico for girls. Interpretation The height and BMI trajectories over age and time of school-aged children and adolescents are highly variable across countries, which indicates heterogeneous nutritional quality and lifelong health advantages and risks
