Estratégias de sensibilização para prevenção do câncer de próstata na população da área de abrangência da Unidade Básica de Saúde Jonas Vicente Pinto no município de Mário Campos - Minas Gerais

O surgimento do câncer de próstata é na maioria das vezes assintomático. As manifestações clínicas devido à obstrução urinária podem suscitar suspeita da presença da doença. Dificuldade de urinar, retenção da urina e diminuição da força de micção, hematúria, ou sêmen e ejaculação dolorosa podem se mostrar como sinais e sintomas que o câncer pode ter atingido a uretra ou a bexiga. O Ministério da Saúde anualmente vem fazendo campanhas de conscientização sobre a importância de fazer de rastreamento câncer de próstata O presente plano de intervenção tem como objetivo elaborar um projeto de intervenção com a finalidade de desenvolver estratégias que promovam a sensibilização e aceitação da população masculina aos exames de rastreamento do câncer de próstata através de um plano de ação a ser instituído na Unidade Básica de Saúde Jonas Vicente Pinto - Mário Campos, MG. Para contribuir na elaboração do projeto foi feito uma revisão bibliográfica com a finalidade de levantar as evidencias já existentes sobre o tema. De acordo com a necessidade observada pela equipe de saúde priorizou-se trabalhar os seguintes nós críticos: Sensibilização dos homens acerca da importância da realização do rastreamento do câncer de próstata e esclarecimento sobre risco/benefício da biópsia prostática; Cultura machista e de invulnerabilidade masculina; Horário de trabalho impossibilita acesso do homem ao atendimento; Maior resolutividade nos exames e resultados e nos encaminhamentos para o tratamento, quando se fizer necessário. Para cada problema foram adotadas atividades específicas para contornar as dificuldades. Toda equipe de saúde da unidade foi envolvida nesse plano onde o enfermeiro direcionou os trabalhos orientando funções já discutidas e acertadas para cada setor. O médico em especial, será peça fundamental na coparticipação da escolha do melhor diagnóstico a ser feito para as individualidades de seus pacientes. A história familiar, a idade, e os hábitos alimentares e o sedentarismo serão fontes de criação dos fatores desencadeantes. O alcance de sensibilização a 75% da parcela populacional masculina de Mário Campos será avaliado em exames realizados e tratamentos encaminhados a êxito.

Melhoria da Atenção à Saúde dos Hipertensos e/ou Diabéticos na UBS Jonas Alexandrino Escórcio, Buriti dos Lopes-PI

Resumo SALAZAR, Lilian. Melhoria da atenção a Saúde dos Hipertensos e/ou Diabéticos na UBS Jonas Alexandrino Escorcio, Buriti Dos Lopes/PI. 2015.71 folhas. Trabalho de Conclusão de Curso (Curso de Especialização em Saúde da Família) - Departamento de Medicina Social, Faculdade de Medicina, Universidade Federal de Pelotas, Pelotas, 2015. A correlação entre hipertensão e diabetes é bem estreita. Decidimos fazer este trabalho de Conclusão de Curso de Especialização em Saúde da Família motivado pela prevalência, morbidade e mortalidade da hipertensão arterial sistêmica (HAS) e diabetes mellitus (DM) na comunidade de Barra de Longa, Município Buriti Dos Lopes/PI. Este trabalho de intervenção na atenção primaria à saúde foi realizado ao longo de doze semanas, e no qual traçamos como objetivo melhorar a atenção da saúde das pessoas diabéticas e hipertensas na UBS. Quatro eixos programáticos fundamentaram as ações e atividades: monitoramento e avaliação, organização e gestão, engajamento público e qualificação da prática clínica. O planejamento do trabalho permitiu traçar objetivos específicos, metas e indicadores que permitiram o monitoramento e avaliação da intervenção. Para iniciar essa intervenção foi necessário fazer a capacitação da equipe de saúde da família segundo os protocolos do Ministério da Saúde, que guiam a conduta da equipe e a organização do serviço. Através da Planilha de Coleta de dados e ficha espelho mantivemos um bom controle e cadastramento dos usuários hipertensos e diabéticos, assim como a organização de nosso trabalho de projeto. No começo dos trabalhos identificamos o desconhecimento que tem a população acerca do controle das doenças, pois achavam que os problemas de saúde poderiam ser resolvidos somente com a intervenção dos profissionais da saúde ou com o uso de medicamentos. É importante que as pessoas percebam o papel da eliminação ou diminuição dos fatores de risco, com o simples ato de mudar alguns hábitos e estilos de vida prejudiciais à saúde. Com as atividades realizadas conseguimos obter ao final da intervenção resultados positivos consideráveis. Na UBS com a intervenção se conquistou uma melhor organização dos registros, com boas práticas de avaliação integral, alcançando-se uma evidente melhora da qualidade da atenção destes usuários de forma geral, através da realização da avaliação integral destacandoo risco cardiovascular, e algumas complicações. A Equipe da Saúde da Família acompanhou 62,1% (n=200) dos 322 usuários com hipertensão residentes na área de abrangência da UBS e 97,5%(n=77) dos 79 diabéticos. Com relação a realizar exame clínico apropriado, exames complementares, prescrição de medicamentos da Farmácia popular, atingimos100% (n=200) para os usuários hipertensos e 100% (n=77) para os diabéticos. Também a avaliação do risco cardiovascular foi realizada em todos os usuários cadastrados, e todos receberam orientações de promoção de estilo de vida saudável. O impacto da intervenção foi muito relevante para nossa equipe, conseguimos melhorar os serviços para a população. Foi possível incorporar as ações desta ação programática na rotina da equipe. Para a comunidade foi também importante, pois conseguimos melhorar a inter-relação com os lideres da comunidade, gestores e equipe de saúde. Palavras-chave: atenção primária à saúde; saúde da família; doença crônica; diabetes mellitus; hipertensão.

[food Insecurity In Brazilian Families With Children Under Five Years Of Age].

This article analyzes food insecurity and hunger in Brazilian families with children under five years of age. This was a nationally representative cross-sectional study using data from the National Demographic and Health Survey on Women and Children (PNDS-2006), in which the outcome variable was moderate to severe food insecurity, measured by the Brazilian Food Insecurity Scale (EBIA). Prevalence estimates and prevalence ratios were generated with 95% confidence intervals. The results showed a high prevalence of moderate to severe food insecurity, concentrated in the North and Northeast regions (30.7%), in economic classes D and E (34%), and in beneficiaries of conditional cash transfer programs (36.5%). Multivariate analysis showed that the socioeconomic relative risks (beneficiaries of conditional cash transfers), regional relative risks (North and Northeast regions), and economic relative risks (classes D and E) were 1.8, 2.0 and 2.4, respectively. Aggregation of the three risks showed 48% of families with moderate to severe food insecurity, meaning that adults and children were going hungry during the three months preceding the survey.

Interplay Of Weak Interactions In The Atom-by-atom Condensation Of Xenon Within Quantum Boxes.

Condensation processes are of key importance in nature and play a fundamental role in chemistry and physics. Owing to size effects at the nanoscale, it is conceptually desired to experimentally probe the dependence of condensate structure on the number of constituents one by one. Here we present an approach to study a condensation process atom-by-atom with the scanning tunnelling microscope, which provides a direct real-space access with atomic precision to the aggregates formed in atomically defined 'quantum boxes'. Our analysis reveals the subtle interplay of competing directional and nondirectional interactions in the emergence of structure and provides unprecedented input for the structural comparison with quantum mechanical models. This approach focuses on-but is not limited to-the model case of xenon condensation and goes significantly beyond the well-established statistical size analysis of clusters in atomic or molecular beams by mass spectrometry.

Are Human Peripheral Nerves Sensitive To X-ray Imaging?

Diagnostic imaging techniques play an important role in assessing the exact location, cause, and extent of a nerve lesion, thus allowing clinicians to diagnose and manage more effectively a variety of pathological conditions, such as entrapment syndromes, traumatic injuries, and space-occupying lesions. Ultrasound and nuclear magnetic resonance imaging are becoming useful methods for this purpose, but they still lack spatial resolution. In this regard, recent phase contrast x-ray imaging experiments of peripheral nerve allowed the visualization of each nerve fiber surrounded by its myelin sheath as clearly as optical microscopy. In the present study, we attempted to produce high-resolution x-ray phase contrast images of a human sciatic nerve by using synchrotron radiation propagation-based imaging. The images showed high contrast and high spatial resolution, allowing clear identification of each fascicle structure and surrounding connective tissue. The outstanding result is the detection of such structures by phase contrast x-ray tomography of a thick human sciatic nerve section. This may further enable the identification of diverse pathological patterns, such as Wallerian degeneration, hypertrophic neuropathy, inflammatory infiltration, leprosy neuropathy and amyloid deposits. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first successful phase contrast x-ray imaging experiment of a human peripheral nerve sample. Our long-term goal is to develop peripheral nerve imaging methods that could supersede biopsy procedures.

Effect of cement type and water storage time on the push-out bond strength of a glass fiber post

This study investigated the effects of the cement type and the water storage time on the push-out bond strength of a glass fiber post. Glass fiber posts (Fibrekor, Jeneric Pentron) were luted to post spaces using a self-cured resin cement (C&B Cement [CB]), a glass ionomer cement (Ketac Cem [KC]) or a resin-modified glass ionomer cement (GC FujiCEM [FC]) according to the manufacturers’ instructions. For each luting agent, the specimens were exposed to one of the following water storage times (n=5): 1 day (T1), 7 days (T7), 90 days (T90) and 180 days (T180). Push-out tests were performed after the storage times. Control specimens were not exposed to water storage, but subjected to the push-out test 10 min after post cementation. Data (in MPa) were analyzed by Kruskal-Wallis and Dunn`s test (α=0.05). Cement type and water storage time had a significant effect (p<0.05) on the push-out bond strength. CB showed significantly higher values of retention (p<0.05) than KC and FC, irrespective of the water storage time. Water storage increased significantly the push-out bond strength in T7 and T90, regardless of the cement type (p<0.05). The results showed that fiber posts luted to post spaces with the self-cured resin cement exhibited the best bonding performance throughout the 180-day water storage period. All cements exhibited a tendency to increase the bond strength after 7 and 90 days of water storage, decreasing thereafter.

Fracture resistance of weakened roots restored with composite resin and glass fiber post

This study evaluated the fracture resistance of weakened roots restored with glass fiber posts, composite resin cores and complete metal crowns. Thirty maxillary canines were randomly divided into 3 groups of 10 teeth each: teeth without weakened roots (control); teeth with partially weakened roots (PWR) and teeth with and largely weakened roots (LWR). The control group was restored with glass fiber posts and a composite resin core. Teeth in the PWR and LWR groups were flared internally to standardized dimensions in order to simulate root weakness. Thereafter, the roots were partially filled with composite resin and restored in the same way as in the control group. The specimens were exposed to 250,000 cycles in a controlled chewing simulator. All intact specimens were subjected to a static load (N) in a universal testing machine at 45 degrees to the long axis of the tooth until failure. Data were analyzed by one-way ANOVA and Dunnett's test for multiple comparisons (p=0.05). There were statistically significant difference differences (p<0.01) among the groups (control group = 566.73 N; PWR = 409.64 N; and LWR = 410.91 N), with significantly higher fracture strength for the control group. There was no statistically significant difference (p>0.05) between the weakened groups. The results of this study showed that thicker root dentin walls significantly increase the fracture resistance of endodontically treated teeth.

Reliability and discriminatory power of methods for dental plaque quantification

OBJECTIVE: This in situ study evaluated the discriminatory power and reliability of methods of dental plaque quantification and the relationship between visual indices (VI) and fluorescence camera (FC) to detect plaque. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Six volunteers used palatal appliances with six bovine enamel blocks presenting different stages of plaque accumulation. The presence of plaque with and without disclosing was assessed using VI. Images were obtained with FC and digital camera in both conditions. The area covered by plaque was assessed. Examinations were done by two independent examiners. Data were analyzed by Kruskal-Wallis and Kappa tests to compare different conditions of samples and to assess the inter-examiner reproducibility. RESULTS: Some methods presented adequate reproducibility. The Turesky index and the assessment of area covered by disclosed plaque in the FC images presented the highest discriminatory powers. CONCLUSION: The Turesky index and images with FC with disclosing present good reliability and discriminatory power in quantifying dental plaque.
