The purpose of this systematic review was to compare the effectiveness of topical treatments to minimize post-radiotherapy xerostomia. PubMed, Cochrane Library (CENTRAL) and LILACS databases were searched without restriction on date or language until the 6thAugust, 2015. Key-wordsused for searching were radiotherapy, xerostomia and saliva. Two independent reviewers screened titles and abstracts, carried out data extraction and assessed risk of bias. The first search identified 429 articles. From these, 117 studies were selected for full-text reading, from which 18 were included in the qualitative synthesis. From the eighteen articles included, seven were non- controlled clinical trial, one article was controlled clinical trial and ten studies were randomized clinical trials (three clinical trials were placebo controlled and seven were crossover). By the assessment of the quality of the studies included, ten showed high risk of bias, four showed moderate risk of bias and four presented low risk of bias. All interventions were considered effective in treating xerostomia (mucin, polysaccharides, aloe vera, rape oil, linseed oil, carboxymethylcellulose, polyethylene oxide, pilocarpine and systems of care for xerostomia - gel, paste and mouthwash). Meta-analysis could not be performed due to heterogeneity between thestudiesand interventions. This systematic review showed that a single and general protocol for topical treatment of xerostomia post-radiotherapy does not exist and that follow-up visits should be performed to validate the individualized treatment plan.

This work aims to analyze the short stories “Prelude”, “At the Bay” and “The Doll’s House”, by Katherine Mansfield under the prism of the gender studies (mainly on the works of Joan Scott and Elisabeth Badinter). To reach such objective, and based on the feminist criticism works (especially those of Elaine Showalter and Toril Moi), we analyzed the three stories, which are from the writer’s so-called “family phase”. The present work contains a bibliographical contextualization of Mansfield’s modernist work under three main aspects: modernism, the short story and women’s writing/writings on women. From the analysis of the three short stories, we observed that questions of gender, representation and identity were depicted by means of the preponderance of female characters from all ages, marital statuses and classes. At the end it was possible to verify how Mansfield works contributed to a reflection about places and roles occupied by women in turn of the XIX and XX Centuries, whereas how this author was also in search for her own identity as a woman and as a writer, exactly in a context when women writers and women’s writings started to become more visible face to a predominantly masculine literary canon.

This study emerged and founded itself with the aim to analyze the position taken by the family – and the implications in this subjective area – in attending children and adolescents in a Childhood Psychosocial Care Center (CAPSi). A secondary goal has come up as the comprehension surrounding the institutional representation made about the family and the service offered to children, adolescents and relatives. For such, the historical perspective on the relation between the State (laws and institutions) and the family was resumed, and the understanding of how it was reconciled by the medical knowledge and attended the ideological and political means. The social and ideological transformations of the 20th century culminated in the need of change required by the Psychiatric Reform and the achievement of patients on the right to return home and to their families. This new situation, permeated by the attempt of building an assistance model in Mental Health, presented a peculiarity–the close relationship between family and Mental Health services. The observations and conversations at CAPSi that were the investigation objects in this research, intended to learn on the quotidian of families and the possible treatment alternatives that would take into account the family circumstances. Conceiving the status of the families in Mental Health services is a germinal matter yet to be adjusted among the active knowledge in the post-Reform devices. The discussion about the family bonds, anchored in the theoretical perspective of Binding Psychoanalysis brought up elementary concepts such as psychic heritage, denial pact, unconscious alliances, the familiar psychic set, among other. The concept of family organizer helped to think of the family trajectories and stablishes a sort of identity for the family, as well as interferes in the establishment of its boundaries. The family path within the institution, as well as the status they establish facing the institutional approach, reflect the ghosts and the organizers shared by the group-family. It follows that the family is an important protagonist to be considered in the current therapeutic and political processes and, thus, is key to welcome the family bonds for the alliances act over the affective destinations, as well as try to remain sealed from the proposed changes.

When expressed by mental health services users, sexuality is typically denied by professionals, viewed as another symptom or as if these people are not capable of practicing it. Once Brazilian health professionals haven’t shown lots of investment in this theme, and few are the studies in this field, it is necessary the attention to be focused on researches involving this public. Therefore, the main goal of this study was understand the meanings of sexuality of the mental health services users, which were negotiated in sexuality workshops. The secondary goals were: a) understand the meanings of themes about sexuality brought by users through their experiences of everyday life; b) to evaluate the facilitating experience of the workshops on sexuality at CAPS. Thus, 10 workshops on sexuality were held, with an average of an hour and twenty minutes each, distributed from December 2014 and April 2015. There were 43 participants, 29 women and 14 men. The meetings had the following central themes: sexuality; sexuality and mental health; myths, beliefs and sexual taboos; gender identity; sexual orientation; sexual and reproductive rights; safe sex; and STD/AIDS. The data collection was through audio-recording of these meetings. Later, was made the transcript of the workshops, a careful reading of these transcripts and then its analysis. It was identified categories to analyze the interfaces that permeate the focus of the study. Initially, the categories relating to mental health and sexuality: meanings about sexuality; gender issues; gender and religion; sexual rights, STD/AIDS prevention and attention or denial of sexuality at CAPS. Later, those relating to the workshops facilitating process: challenges in facilitating the workshops; and the perception of the participants. A variety of meanings about sexuality could be noticed in the users’ statements, relating it more with affection and respect than with intercourse. The gender issues that emerged during the workshops were related to marital relationship, sexism, domestic violence, psychological violence and male and female roles in society. Moreover, were also revealed some situations that associated gender differences with religious issues, such as the submission of women and homosexuality. It was also noticed some experiences of the participants involving worrying situations of family violence, suicidal ideation and chemical castration, were often mismanaged or ignored by the service professionals. With regard to the facilitation of the workshops, it was possible to legitimize it as places where users were able to talk openly about the suggested themes and highlight its importance to the study site. Besides, it’s possible to list a few challenges of its facilitation in a mental health service, which was in general positively evaluated by the participants. Thus, the research highlights the need for sexuality theme discussion in mental health services, in order to understand, discuss and inform the users. Also, it’s important to problematize the stigma created in the theme relation with the users, the professionals and the society, working its specificities and avoiding a pathological bias.

The human being is understood as an integral being, complex, which has multiple dimensions: social, biological, psychological, anthropological, spiritual and others. As its biological dimension, the man presents the possibility of physical illness, which means that the body requires care. The sick away from humans in health and safety conditions, approaching them directly from the finitude and vulnerability condition, leading us to contact the major uncertainties of life: suffering of disease and death. Religiosity and spirituality are important coping strategy for human when faced with borderline situations. When people turn to religion to cope with stress is the religious and spiritual coping. The objective of this research was to evaluate the relationship between the views on death and the religious-spiritual coping in patients with chronic diseases hospitalized. The study included ten patients hospitalized for chronic disease complications Medical Clinic Unit of a public hospital in the city of Uberlândia/MG. two psychological scales were used: Scale Religious-Spiritual Coping Brief (CRE-Brief Scale) and Scale Brief Diverse Perspectives of Death and a structured interview (audiogravada) on the subject of death and religious and spiritual coping. The results indicated that 80% of the sample (N = 8) consisted of patients hospitalized due to chronic diseases, while 20% accounted for patients with AIDS complications. Analyzing the results of scale CRE-Brief, it emphasizes the use of strategies of religious and spiritual coping by participants as compared to CRE Total, all study participants had average or high scores for this index, with a low utilization CRE negative and average utilization CRE Positive. Regarding views on death, the results obtained by the Different Perspectives Quick Scale on Death suggest that this sample agrees with the view death as something that is part of the natural cycle of life (M8 - Death as a natural end) and features the prospect of death as uncertainty, mystery and ignorance (M4 - death as Unknown). The correlations between the measures the factors and items of CRE-Bref and dimensions of Short scales on different perspectives of Death notes the prevalence of correlations of M4 dimensions - Death as unknown and M8 - Death as a natural order to the creditor scale soon. In the interview analysis revealed a positive influence of religion/ spirituality on health, from the perspective of the respondent, highlighting the protection promoted by religion. It also noticed the use of prayer as a coping strategy of hospitalization and illness. Regarding the interview about the topic of death, there was a predominance of issues related to "afterlife", "unknown" and "abandonment", which are associated with the visions of death and mystery and death as a natural end. In the interviews there belief clues about death as a terrifying mystery connected, so the unknown and the feeling of fear on the same. The experience of illness can therefore be considered as a source of vulnerability, since it is present personal perception of danger (external) - own illness and possible death, especially in those patients undergoing ICU - and where control is insufficient for the sense of security, since the hospital providing care to the patient are delegated to third parties and patients assume a passive role. This fact is important and relevant to health professionals who deal daily with patients hospitalized for chronic diseases, since the recourse to religion and spirituality as a coping strategy that psychic movement was not constituted in a form of negative distance or even denial of health condition. On the contrary, it refers to a movement in search of comfort and security provided by the religion and spirituality.

The objective of this study was to evaluate the productive performance, metabolic and feeding behavior of sheep after ninety days deferred pasture at different heights. The experiment was conducted at Capim Branco experimental farm of the Universidade Federal de Uberlândia. During the period of 90 days, from June to September 2013, forty-eight crossbred lambs Santa Inês x Dorper, divided into groups of four animals, occupied twelve pickets deferred pasture with four initial heights (15 cm, 25 cm, 35 cm and 45 cm). During this period we evaluated the structural characteristics of pasture. For confinement, from September to December 2013, 32 of these animals were used (16 males and 16 females), divided into four bays, separated as pasture were using. The consumption was assessed daily, while biometric measurements were made every 21 days. In relation to gender, there were differences in average daily gain weight. Reviews of feeding behavior occurred at the beginning, middle and end of the experiment for 24 hours. The rumination and leisure activities do not present statistical differences, both initial height of pasture and by period. The time spent on intake was higher during the daytime both treatments starting height as the experimental periods, however, rumination activity was more intense at night. Blood glucose was achieved in five periods of the day, while other metabolites have been obtained with a collection made fortnightly. The different initial heights not promoted effects on blood glucose. The harvesting times were not affected. However, there was a reduction of basal blood glucose of animals throughout the experimental period. There was a significant interaction between the initial pasture heights and periods of evaluation of basal glucose. Cholesterol and triglyceride levels were below recommended levels, however the final phase of confinement cholesterol level increased significantly. The values of VLDL and GGT were above the reference range. FA and AST showed average values within the recommended values. Total protein was influenced by different initial heights of pasture. The creatinine and albumin had values below the recommended range. Moreover, the albumin decreased during the confinement time. Uric acid showed close to the recommended maximum. There was stabilization of compensatory growth, with modification of consumption and weight gain at 45 days of experiment.

A cannabis é a substância ilícita mais consumida pela população jovem (EMCDDA, 2015). Devido ao aumento das prevalências de consumo desta substância, tem-se verificado um aumento do número de indivíduos que recorrem ou são encaminhados para os serviços de saúde tendo a cannabis como droga principal. Por este motivo, temos assistido a uma necessidade cada vez maior de se realizarem intervenções preventivas que proporcionem conhecimentos e competências que ajudem a lidar com o risco associado ao consumo de substâncias psicoativas (SICAD, 2013a). O principal objetivo da presente dissertação é avaliar a eficácia de um programa de prevenção indicada aplicado num grupo de jovens consumidores de cannabis através de uma avaliação pré e pós-intervenção. A amostra foi constituída por 10 jovens consumidores de cannabis, pertencentes à consulta de prevenção indicada do Centro de Respostas Integradas de Aveiro. A intervenção em grupo implementada foi avaliada através da aplicação dos seguintes instrumentos: ASSIST, AUDIT e SCL-90-R e a análise de dados foi realizada através do SPSS – Versão 19.0. Não foram encontradas diferenças estatisticamente significativas ao nível da sintomatologia psicopatológica e de consumo entre as duas fases de avaliação do grupo de prevenção indicada. Contudo, observaram-se melhorias significativas no grupo de controlo ao nível de algumas subescalas psicopatológicas. Conclui-se que a intervenção individual foi mais eficaz do que a intervenção em grupo. Os resultados obtidos colocam em causa a pertinência de se realizarem intervenções em grupo neste tipo de populações.

A simulação consiste na produção voluntária de sintomas físicos e psicológicos para obter compensações externas. O presente estudo tem como objetivo avaliar a eficácia de um conjunto de instrumentos utilizados na identificação de situações de simulação, bem como averiguar se esses instrumentos são sensíveis a sintomas psicopatológicos. Deste modo, espera-se que os resultados obtidos pelos grupos com depressão e sem depressão honestos difiram significativamente dos resultados obtidos pelo grupo sem depressão simulador. Para tal, foi recolhida uma amostra de 59 sujeitos, todos do sexo feminino, divididos por três grupos: com diagnóstico de depressão (n=19), sem diagnóstico de depressão simuladores (n=20) e sem diagnóstico de depressão honestos (n=20). O protocolo de avaliação incluiu o Test of Memory Malingering (TOMM: Tombaugh, 1996), o Structured Inventory Malingered Symptomatology (SIMS: Widows & Smith), os subtestes de Memória de Dígitos e dos Cubos da WAIS-III, (Wechsler, 1997) e a Figura Complexa de Rey (FCR: Rey, 1988). Os resultados não sugerem diferenças significativas no primeiro e segundo ensaios de aprendizagem do TOMM entre os grupos em estudo. No ensaio de retenção, o grupo sem diagnóstico de depressão simulador difere significativamente do grupo sem diagnóstico de depressão honesto. No SIMS, apenas a subescala Psicose (P) difere significativamente entre os grupos com diagnóstico de depressão e sem diagnóstico de depressão simulador. As subescalas Défices Neurológicos (NI), Perturbações Afetivas (AF), P e Perturbações Mnésicas (AM), com exceção da escala Capacidade Intelectual Reduzida (LI) diferem significativamente entre os grupos com diagnóstico de depressão e sem diagnóstico de depressão honesto e entre este e o grupo sem diagnóstico de depressão simulador. No subteste de Memória de Dígitos verifica-se diferenças significativas entre os grupos sem diagnóstico de depressão simulador e honesto. No subteste dos Cubos não foram encontradas diferenças significativas entre os grupos estudados e na cópia da FCR foram encontradas diferenças significativas entre os grupos com diagnóstico de depressão e sem diagnóstico de depressão simulador. Este estudo contribui para o enriquecimento da literatura nacional e internacional, uma vez que inclui um grupo clínico e alguns instrumentos que não são habitualmente utilizados numa avaliação de simulação. Para além disso, estes resultados têm implicações no contexto clínico e forense, no sentido preventivo e de conhecimento da doença mental.

A alexitimia é o termo usado para caracterizar as pessoas com défices no processamento, na compreensão e na descrição de emoções. Definida também como um traço de personalidade multifatorial, a alexitimia tem uma prevalência de 10% na população em geral e está associada a uma menor qualidade de vida. Apesar de este estudo incidir-se numa população saudável, a alexitimia está frequentemente associada a patologias físicas e perturbações mentais. O objetivo deste estudo consistiu em verificar a influência da alexitimia na categorização das expressões faciais emocionais, numa tarefa de apresentação de faces dinâmicas. 87 participantes com diferentes índices de alexitimia completaram uma tarefa que consistia na apresentação de faces dinâmicas cujo o intuito era categorizar as expressões faciais de raiva, nojo e alegria. A precisão das respostas e os níveis de intensidade emocional foram manipulados. Os resultados indicaram que os indivíduos, no geral, identificaram mais precisamente e com menores níveis de intensidade emocional a expressão de alegria comparativamente com as expressões negativas (raiva e nojo). Verificou-se também diferenças significativas entre a alexitimia e as expressões faciais emocionais relativamente à precisão na categorização. Deste modo, foi possível verificar neste estudo, que indivíduos com altos níveis de alexitimia foram significativamente menos precisos na identificação da expressão facial de raiva comparativamente com indivíduos com baixos níveis de alexitimia.

Os ritmos circadianos têm vindo a despertar interesse há largos anos, sabendo-se que cada indivíduo tem a sua preferência pessoal por estar ativo a diferentes horas do dia. A noção de cronótipo traduz esta preferência, classificando-nos em matutinos, intermédios, ou vespertinos. Encontra-se já definida uma relação entre o cronótipo de um indivíduo e a hora do dia a que realiza determinadas tarefas, fator que influencia o desempenho em muitos processos cognitivos, observando-se o designado efeito de sincronia: o desempenho atinge o seu pico quando a tarefa se realiza na hora ótima, aquela que se coaduna com a hora preferencial da pessoa. Desse modo, sujeitos matutinos têm frequentemente um melhor desempenho em diversas tarefas durante a manhã, e sujeitos vespertinos ao final do dia. O presente estudo pretendeu verificar se este efeito influencia o processo de emparelhamento de faces não familiares, tarefa em que o desempenho é por norma pobre. Nesse sentido, 33 participantes (17 matutinos e 16 vespertinos) avaliaram os 168 pares de faces (84 em cada sessão) que compõem o Glasgow Face Matching Test, e decidiram se as duas pertenciam à mesma pessoa, ou a pessoas diferentes. A tarefa foi realizada em duas sessões, uma às 9h e outra às 19h, para avaliar o efeito de sincronia. Verificou-se um efeito de interação significativo entre o cronótipo e a hora ótima no tempo de reação dos participantes, quando acertavam a sua resposta. Parte dos nossos resultados foram de encontro ao esperado, com os participantes vespertinos a serem mais rápidos na sua hora ótima. É sugerida então a existência de alguma influência do cronótipo e da hora do dia na rapidez de processamento e emparelhamento de faces não familiares.

O auto-criticismo é um traço de personalidade preditor de psicopatologia. Sabe-se que indivíduos com elevado auto-criticismo tendem a processar a compaixão como um estímulo ameaçador. Apesar destes dados, a literatura é escassa no que se refere à forma como os indivíduos com elevado auto-criticismo reagem perante emoções complexas, como o criticismo e a compaixão. Desta forma, no presente estudo foram utilizadas faces de compaixão, criticismo e neutras como estímulos distratores, em que o estímulo relevante consistiu na identificação de uma letra num conjunto delas. Os resultados mostraram que as pessoas com elevado auto-criticismo tenderam a errar mais e a ter maiores tempos de resposta na tarefa principal quando o estímulo distrator foi uma face de compaixão. Estes dados sugerem que a atenção automática de indivíduos com elevado auto-criticismo pode ser afetada perante estímulos faciais de compaixão.

Contextualização: Recentemente tem-se verificado um aumento do número de estudos que relacionam conceitos da personalidade, tais como os Esquemas Mal-adaptativos Precoces (EMP), com a psicopatologia e com outras condições, tais como a obesidade, a dor crónica e o comportamento sexual agressivo. No entanto, a investigação acerca da relação entre os problemas de sono e os EMP encontra-se ainda numa fase inicial. Objetivos: Os objetivos do presente estudo foram investigar uma potencial relação entre os EMP e a má qualidade de sono em estudantes do ensino superior e observar que EMP apresentavam associações de maior magnitude com a qualidade de sono nesta população específica. Métodos: Estudantes de diversas universidades e institutos de ensino superior de Portugal foram convidados a responder a uma versão online dos questionários Escala Básica de Sintomas de Insónia e Qualidade de Sono (BaSIQS) e Questionário de Esquemas de Young (YSQ-S3). A partir da amostra total obtida de estudantes do ensino superior de nacionalidade portuguesa (N = 1253) foi selecionada uma primeira subamostra (n1 = 409), usando como critérios de inclusão a idade (entre os 18 e os 25 anos) e as pontuações extremas de qualidade de sono da BaSIQS (má versus boa qualidade de sono). A partir da n1 extraiu-se uma segunda subamostra de participantes (n2 = 249), com características de um estudante “típico” do ensino superior (estatuto de aluno ordinário, solteiro, sem filhos, sem problemas de saúde, não medicado). Para estudar a relação entre os EMP, medidos pelo YSQ-S3, e a qualidade de sono foi aplicada uma MANOVA (Análise de Variância Multivariada) para cada um dos cinco domínios esquemáticos (“Distanciamento e Rejeição”, “Autonomia e Desempenho Deteriorados”, “Limites Deteriorados”, “Influência dos Outros” e “Vigilância Excessiva e Inibição”), para ambas as subamostras (n1 e n2). Resultados: No que diz respeito à n2, os estudantes com má qualidade de sono apresentaram níveis significativamente mais elevados dos EMP “Abandono/ Instabilidade”, “Desconfiança/ Abuso”, “Isolamento Social/ Alienação” (Domínio “Distanciamento e Rejeição”), “Vulnerabilidade ao Mal e à Doença” (Domínio “Autonomia e Desempenho Deteriorados”), “Grandiosidade/ Limites Indefinidos” (Domínio “Limites Deteriorados”), “Autossacrifício” (Domínio “Influência dos Outros”) e “Negativismo/ Pessimismo” (Domínio “Vigilância Excessiva e Inibição”). Conclusões: Estes dados mostram que os EMP estão associados à má qualidade de sono. No entanto, são necessários estudos adicionais para melhor compreender esta relação e a sua implicação na prática clínica.

The objective of this text is to discuss a central question in a doctorate study, in progress, about the learning of the speech genre in self-confrontation situations. This consists of a procedure, which a worker observes your own images, video recorded at the time it performs activities related to their craft; It requests that he comment on what he was doing on the images in order to clarify matters for himself and another - be it a intervenant (simple self-confrontation) or a coworker (crossed self-confrotation). (CLOT, 2008/2010). In the context of this research, the confronted workers are university teachers and students who participate in an action of teacher continuing education. The object of the research is the process of speech genre of learning self-confrontation situation, having as subject a person who conducts self-confrontations training, which initially observed the conduct of dialogues and reflections, and will gradually participating in the self-confrontation activity and becoming also forming another. The theoretical foundations of the research seeks an articulation between sciences such as the Psychology of Labor, the Cultural-historical Psychology and Linguistics. The concepts that are employed come from Clot´s theory of the Psychology of Labor, that is, from the Clinic of Activity and from the activity genre studies (CLOT, 2008/2010); they also come from the Vygotskian theory of human development, with the concepts of thinking and speech (VIGOTSKI, 1934/1998); and from the Bakhtinian dialogic principle (BAKHTIN, 1979/2011). We believe that the formation of the person conducting self-confrontation occurs through learning a gender of speech and a genre of activity.
