Achados da fundoscopia e alterações do pé diabético em pacientes do Hospital Universitário Onofre Lopes/UFRN

Trabalho com o objetivo de identificar as alterações do pé diabético causadas pelas lesões microangiopáticas e das lesões do fundo de olho secundárias aretinopatia diabética. Métodos:76 pacientes com Diabetes Melito tipos 1 e 2atendidos no ambulatório de Oftalmologia e Cirurgia Vascular do HUOL/UFRN, Natal, RN, no período de novembro de 2004 a janeiro de 2005, com queixas relativas a alterações da retinopatia diabéticae/oudo pé diabético. Em todos os pacientes foi realizado exame clínico geral, vascular e oftalmológico. Na avaliação específicado pé diabético deu-se ênfase paraa investigação do status vascular pela Classificação de Fontaine para Doença Arterial Obstrutiva Periférica, biomecânica,e teste do monofilamento de Semmes-Weinstein. O exame oftalmológico constou de refração e fundoscopiaatravés da qual identificou-se as formas clínicas da retinopatia diabética. Os dados foram submetidos à análise estatística das variáveis primárias que consistiu em caracterizar o grupo quanto a idade, tempo de doença, nível de glicose A segunda estratégia da análise dos dados constituiu na realização de testes de associação entrealgumas variáveis secundárias selecionadas. O software utilizado para os testes estatísticos foi o Statistica Versão 5, 1997.Resultado: Dos 76 pacientes diabéticos 97% tinham idade superior a 40 anos. O tempo de doença65% tinham mais de 10 anos. Com relação à glicose 72,72% apresentaram níveis de glicose em jejum acima de 100mg/dl. 55,26% apresentavam algum grau de retinopatia diabética contra 44,74% que não apresentavamesses sinais. Com as alterações do pé diabético, identificou-se 59,93% com lesões com área de predominância isquêmica, enquanto 41,07% tinham ausência de sinais. 58,82% apresentaram área de predominância neuropática, e 41,18% sem sinais de neuropatia. Dos com retinopatia diabética 78,57% tinham comprometimento isquêmico no pé e 47,62% tinham algum grau de neuropatia diabética. Observou-se que a retinopatia diabética não proliferativa, nos seus diversos graus de comprometimento apresentou-se com percentuais em torno de 80% junto às lesões do pé diabético, seja isquêmico ou neuropático. Dos pacientes que tinham retinopatia 60,46% tinham alterações biomecânicas dos pés. Conclusão: Concluiu-se que a RDNP leve foi mais freqüente nas lesões do pé diabético isquêmico, enquanto a RDNP severa mostrou-se mais presente no pé diabético neuropático

O processo avaliativo institucional de desempenho do sistema público municipal de Teresina-PI (2001 a 2005): entre a lógica da excelência e a lógica da aprendizagem

This work focalize the institutional and educational evaluation, aiming to investigate the Municipal System Institutional Evaluation Performance of Teresina City Piauí (2001-2005), and to reflect about Institutional System Performance and its contribution to compose a new learning evaluation practice. In this sense, classifies elements about the evaluation practice in two Elementary Education municipal public schools, involving Education Municipal Bureau technicians as managers, pedagogues, teachers and students. Based on the ethnographic studies principles in the educational area, the work employs investigative procedures like document analysis, interviews with groups and individuals and also participator s comments. Intending to comprehend the complexity produced by the institutional and education evaluation processes, the wok reveals the Institutional Evaluation legal and educational political basis and the several positions assumed by the Learning Evaluation, as a classification tool or as a learning enhancement. This work points, as results, to a evaluation culture bipolarity carried out by the Municipal Education System as a explicit control and regulation toll, related to the classification and learning in a interaction process that operates both in the pressure and the reflection, as a culture practice established between excellence of logic and learning. The evaluation history has been construct on the evaluation actions dialectics, joint simultaneously between the Institutional Evaluation Performance and the learning evaluation. The senses, meanings and actions bipolarity is a interaction process product sustained between the institutional evaluation, under the scholar ranking application, and the learning evaluation. In this relativity, the teacher evaluation practice is found, ruled by interesting, thoughts and actions on the school evaluation, allowing a higher security and support to the learning results. Grounded in the researched reality, its possible to say that the teacher s evaluation practice is diversified, with different characteristics, when it is done in the learning search and in the learning intention. In the first case, reflects, rearranges and constructs new actions that lead the student to produce learning. In the second, shows the will, the wish of learning, but is a weak action, producing a not really significant learning and development; as a result, remains the mark approach as a determinant in the student future. The work s hope is to contribute not just to rethink these two evaluations dimensions the institutional and the learning ones but also to organize the school and to improve the pedagogic process

Passado e presente: a enfermagem do Hospital Universitário Onofre Lopes

This is a historically focused study with a qualitative approach whose main purpose is to investigate the trajectory of Nursing at the Hospital Universitário Onofre Lopes (HUOL) and how it associates with the teaching of Nursing at the Federal University of Rio Grande do Norte (UFRN). Motivation for carrying out this study is due, firstly, to a liking for history and, secondly, to the nonexistence of records on Nursing in one of the institutions with the most teaching tradition in the area of health and nursing in the state of Rio Grande do Norte. The objectives of the study were to analyze the historical development of Nursing at the HUOL and its association with the teaching of Nursing at the UFRN; describe the historical development of the Hospital referred to; and to establish a relationship between the development of nursing at the HUOL and the teaching of Nursing at the UFRN. Empirical investigation was carried out based on the study of historical documents such as reports, minutes, letters, by-laws, decrees and administrative directives, as well as photographs and interviews with people who lived through this history or who kept vivid memories of it. From this research it can be gathered that Nursing at the HUOL was at first closely identified with the empirical stage of the profession. Its development is a result of the institutionalization of teaching whose starting point is an authorization for running the Nursing Aid School of Natal in 1955. Since then, gradually, teaching has enabled those who practiced nursing at that institution to become professionals through a partnership between the Nursing Aid School and the Nursing Department at the Hospital whose administration had been in charge of a professor for many years. Upon the creation of the undergraduate program in Nursing in 1973, nursing at the HUOL underwent a new transformation process with new nurses being hired. Likewise, the creation of post-graduate specialization and master s degree programs in 1982 and 1996, respectively, opened the way to the growth of the academic qualifications of nurses at that institution. Therefore, it must be asserted that Nursing at the HUOL has, over the years, gone through a continuous process of qualification of its members and in such trajectory the teaching of Nursing that is carried out at different levels at the UFRN stands as a hallmark

Das cinzas aos mafuás: infância e morte na lírica de Manuel Bandeira

Cet article étudie la poésie de l'enfance et de la mort de Manuel Bandeira, à partir de la relation entre l'expérience, le langage et le sens, afin de mettre en place une nouvelle perspective sur ce thème, qui sert de guide et structure son Estrela da vida inteira (1966). Pour cela, il faut introduire la notion de lyrique, discutée par Theodor Adorno, pendant la conférence Lírica e sociedade (1958), à promouvoir la compréhension du poète, comme c'est le cas de Bandeira, implique son art par le biais de la dimension négative face à une situation de fétichisation des choses, afin d'appréhender des expériences qui constituent la substance de la vie et l'essence de la poésie. À cette perspective de lyrique s ajoutent les concepts de l'enfance et de la mort, exploités par Giorgio Agamben, dans les oeuvres Infância e história (2005) et A linguagem e a morte (2006), étant largement favorables à la compréhension de la poétique de l'enfance chez Manuel Bandeira, comme une sorte de discours qui récupère l'idée d'expérience dans l actualité, en marquant la limite entre une expérience muette et une expérience de la langue, de même, la mort apporte des implications relatives à la négativité, comme une brèche par laquelle l'auteur explore la signification de sa lyrique et la«dénoue» des incrustations du monde réifié, pour être dans la défense du langage non contaminé par le clôturée qui entravent la conservation de la créature et la donnée originaire des choses . Cela culmine l aboutissement de la thèse, la conclusion d être la négativité la voie qui explicite, dans l oeuvre bandeirienne, la culture brésilienne non comme une totalité positivée dans une ethnie, classe ou nation, mais comme un langage qui reconstruit, avec lyrisme, le coloré mosaïque qui est le Brésil

Perfil da renda e do volume dos resíduos sólidos urbanos da associação de catadores de São Manuel - SP

The implementation of residue selective collection has brought to the city of Sao Manuel an incalculable benefit. It brought a better life for a group of adults and children that lives in a humanitarian condition of extreme poverty. These people live in an open-air dump, disputing the remains found in fifteen tons of garbage that are deposited at the site almost every day.The objective of this paper is to present thecollectors annual income profile and the volume of solid waste collected.To present these factors, the total and fractionated amount according to their material items, collected since the creation of the Association in February 2003 until December 2008, were considered., In addition,the social gains were enumerated. These factors were developed from a theoretical base for municipal solid waste involving environmental, social, and financial concepts. Based on these results it was found that the ACAPEL income value was above the average of other income indicators of the population analyzed, besides the social value enhance that the creation of the Association brought to the people who work there.

Prevalence and risk factors of Hepatitis C virus infection in Brazil, 2005 through 2009: a cross-sectional study

Abstract Background Hepatitis C chronic liver disease is a major cause of liver transplant in developed countries. This article reports the first nationwide population-based survey conducted to estimate the seroprevalence of HCV antibodies and associated risk factors in the urban population of Brazil. Methods The cross sectional study was conducted in all Brazilian macro-regions from 2005 to 2009, as a stratified multistage cluster sample of 19,503 inhabitants aged between 10 and 69 years, representing individuals living in all 26 State capitals and the Federal District. Hepatitis C antibodies were detected by a third-generation enzyme immunoassay. Seropositive individuals were retested by Polymerase Chain Reaction and genotyped. Adjusted prevalence was estimated by macro-regions. Potential risk factors associated with HCV infection were assessed by calculating the crude and adjusted odds ratios, 95% confidence intervals (95% CI) and p values. Population attributable risk was estimated for multiple factors using a case–control approach. Results The overall weighted prevalence of hepatitis C antibodies was 1.38% (95% CI: 1.12%–1.64%). Prevalence of infection increased in older groups but was similar for both sexes. The multivariate model showed the following to be predictors of HCV infection: age, injected drug use (OR = 6.65), sniffed drug use (OR = 2.59), hospitalization (OR = 1.90), groups socially deprived by the lack of sewage disposal (OR = 2.53), and injection with glass syringe (OR = 1.52, with a borderline p value). The genotypes 1 (subtypes 1a, 1b), 2b and 3a were identified. The estimated population attributable risk for the ensemble of risk factors was 40%. Approximately 1.3 million individuals would be expected to be anti-HCV-positive in the country. Conclusions The large estimated absolute numbers of infected individuals reveals the burden of the disease in the near future, giving rise to costs for the health care system and society at large. The known risk factors explain less than 50% of the infected cases, limiting the prevention strategies. Our findings regarding risk behaviors associated with HCV infection showed that there is still room for improving strategies for reducing transmission among drug users and nosocomial infection, as well as a need for specific prevention and control strategies targeting individuals living in poverty.

Evolução da linha de costa e morfologia atual do Delta do Valo Grande, Litoral Sudeste do Brasil

O sistema estuarino‐lagunar de Cananéia‐Iguape, localizado no sul do Estado de São Paulo, sudeste do Brasil, encerra um complexo de canais, associados a uma planície costeira, cuja evolução data dos eventos transgressivo‐regressivos do Quaternário superior e cujos processos sedimentares recentes foram dramaticamente alterados em função da atividade antrópica, nos últimos 150 anos, determinada, basicamente, pela abertura de um canal artificial, o Valo Grande. Uma análise de documentos cartográficos, dos últimos 100 anos (Commissão Geographica e Geologica do Estado de S. Paulo, 1914; Freitas, 2005; Nascimento Jr et al., 2008), além de imagens de satélites, revela que, após a abertura do Valo Grande, houve uma enorme intensificação no processo sedimentar de parte do sistema lagunar, em função, não somente da erosão das margens do canal artificial mas, também, por conta do aumento expressivo sedimentos para o sistema estuarino‐lagunar, levando à formação de um “delta intra‐lagunar antropogênico” (“man‐made intra‐lagoonal delta”) cuja evolução e morfologia atual estão sendo investigados.
