Este estudo pretende medir a qualidade de vida dos indivíduos com perda auditiva (PA), definida pela perda média dos limiares aéreos tonais. Este estudo transversal quantitativo e descritivo foi conduzido entre Maio e Outubro de 2010 numa amostra de 328 indivíduos (47.0% do género masculino), com idade média ± desvio-padrão de 45.82 ± 12.93 anos, referenciados ao Gabinete de Audiologia do CHTS-UPA, EPE que foram avaliados e entrevistados. Recorreu-se à Versão Portuguesa 2 do Questionário de Estado de Saúde (SF-36v2) do CEIS-FE-UC, como instrumento para medir a qualidade de vida, complementado com um questionário de identificação e de dados sócio-demográficos e clínicos. RESULTADOS: Os indivíduos com perda auditiva que integraram a amostra do presente estudo revelaram piores percepções do Estado de Saúde do que as autopercepções dos elementos da amostra que constituiram os valores de referência, principalmente nas dimensões Saúde Geral da componente Física e nas dimensões Função Social e Saúde Mental da componente Mental da Saúde. CONCLUSÕES: a perda auditiva encontra-se negativamente associada a valores elevados de saúde, promovendo diferenças entre indivíduos com PA e indivíduos sem PA, nas dimensões do SF-36v2, Funcão Física e Social, Desempenho Físico e Emocional, Saúde Geral e Mental e Vitalidade. A avaliação da audição, a prevenção da perda auditiva e a reabilitação auditiva podem contribuir para uma melhoria do desempenho social e bemestar da população.

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the microbiological quality of treated and untreated water samples came from urban and rural communities and to examine the relationship between coliforms occurrence and average water temperature, and a comparison of the rainfall levels. METHODS: A sample of 3,073 untreated and treated (chlorinated) water from taps (1,594), reservoir used to store treated water (1,033), spring water (96) and private well (350) collected for routine testing between 1996 and 1999 was analyzed by the multiple dilution tube methods used to detect the most probable number of total and fecal coliforms. These samples were obtained in the region of Maringá, state of Paraná, Brazil. RESULTS: The highest numbers water samples contaminated by TC (83%) and FC (48%) were found in the untreated water. TC and FC in samples taken from reservoirs used to store treated water was higher than that from taps midway along distribution lines. Among the treated water samples examined, coliform bacteria were found in 171 of the 1,033 sampling reservoirs. CONCLUSIONS: Insufficient treatment or regrowth is suggested by the observation that more than 17% of these treated potable water contained coliform. TC and FC positive samples appear to be similar and seasonally influenced in treated water. Two different periods must be considered for the occurrence of both TC and FC positive samples: (i) a warm-weather period (September-March) with high percentage of contaminated samples; and (ii) cold-weather period (April-August) were they are lower. Both TC and TF positive samples declined with the decreased of water temperature.

The objective of this research is to investigate the role of the relationship quality, cooperation and culture between Portuguese companies and their export market intermediaries in Angola. In particular, we aim to understand the importance that the quality of the relationship has in cooperation and the role of cultures in export activities. An important aspect of this study is precisely the fact that it includes an African country, where, in terms of the literature, there is a strong lack of studies. In terms of methodology we opted for qualitative analysis; we present the results of two case studies of Portuguese exporting companies and one case study of Angolan intermediate. In general, the results are that the business relationships are characterized by trust, commitment, cooperation, culture, similar values, as in the past, Angola belonged to Portugal there is easy communication because both countries share the same. Such factors will influence the trade relations between Portuguese exporters and their Angolan distributors.
