Microcefalia: Retrato (In)Eficiente do Sistema de Proteção Social Brasileiro
Authors: da Silva Roberta Soares , Andrade Carla Benedetti de O.
Published: July 2019

O sistema de Seguridade Social tem por objetivo garantir proteção social na ocorrência de situações de carência, havendo uma responsabilização de todos os indivíduos pelas necessidades vitais básicas de outros, para que todos possam gozar de uma vida digna, a fim de que se realize o bem comum e a justiça social. Tal sistema de proteção social se mostra ineficiente quando da proliferação do zika vírus no início de 2015, no nordeste brasileiro, e que corroborou para a existência de microcefalia, devido, no caso, à ausência de políticas públicas de controle, fiscalização e saneamento básico e que pudessem conter a propagação do mosquito Aedes Aegypti, transmissor do vírus. Observa-se, assim, a carência de um sistema de proteção, albergado na Seguridade Social, que fosse efetivo para a preservação da dignidade humana, sendo o contexto apresentado de flagrante risco social. Diante disso, no âmbito da assistência social, foi editada a Lei 13.301/2016, a fim de assistir às famílias de baixa renda, com portadores de microcefalia, com a concessão de um benefício de prestação continuada. A assistência social visa garantir ao homem o mínimo de subsistência quando em estado de necessidade, todavia, deve o Estado também, em um contexto de proteção social, não somente remediar problemas, mas fornecer planos de ação que respeitem o princípio da dignidade da pessoa humana, bem como os direitos fundamentais.

Published: July 2019

O objetivo do presente estudo é analisar o planejamento das políticas públicas de longo, médio e curto prazo. A análise será empreendida pela forma e pelo tempo como o planejamento é realizado, na esfera administrativa, legislativa e social. Será avaliada a eficiência ou ineficiência dos resultados pretendidos com o planejamento, especialmente quanto ao longo prazo. Serão analisados alguns casos pela avaliação dos resultados, ou pela omissão nessa avaliação pela Administração Pública. Para essa análise serão utilizados estudos de organismos nacionais e internacionais de controle ou de apoio institucional. Os resultados obtidos com a análise empreendida não são satisfatórios, porque os problemas identificados, em grande parte, não foram solucionados com o planejamento e a execução das políticas públicas. Também foi identificada omissão ou falhas no planejamento de longo prazo em várias áreas sociais importantes. Nesses casos, o planejamento de médio e curto prazo tem sido utilizado para suprir a omissão do Estado, igualmente sem sucesso, porque as medidas a serem tomadas demandam um período maior de tempo e investimentos continuados. As falhas no planejamento, na avaliação dos resultados e na alteração dos meios para sua execução, não gera eficiência nem eficácia das políticas públicas planejadas, afetando as futuras gerações. O princípio da responsabilidade e a exigência da justiça intergeracional exigem alterações no planejamento e na execução das políticas públicas no Brasil.
Conflictos Fundamentales en Materia de Custodia Compartida: Contribución de los Progenitores al Sostenimiento de los Hijos y Atribución de la Vivienda Familiar
Authors: Vázquez Marta Madriñán
Published: July 2019

La Ley 15/2005, de 8 de julio vino a introducir de forma expresa en nuestro Derecho civil el régimen de guarda y custodia compartida con la finalidad de evitar que, tras la ruptura de la pareja, los hijos dejen de tener una relación fluida con sus progenitores. La guarda y custodia compartida incide de manera importante en los pronunciamientos económicos de las sentencias, y en concreto en lo relativo a la pensión de alimentos y la atribución del uso de la vivienda familiar. Ante el silencio del legislador, ha sido la jurisprudencia del Tribunal Supremo la que ha ido perfilando y a través de su interpretación, las ha ido adecuando al régimen de custodia compartida.

En el artículo se propone que las personas con problemas graves de salud mental sea uno de los colectivos incluidos dentro del próximo Plan Nacional de Acción para la Inclusión y que, por ello, pueda disfrutar de estrategias específicas de inserción sociolaboral. En la actualidad, se encuentran en parte incorporadas dentro del conjunto de las personas con discapacidad pero debido a que muchas de aquéllas no tienen el reconocimiento legal de la discapacidad se propone diferenciarlas en alguna medida como grupo social muy necesitado de apoyos y recursos.
A Suprema Corte di Cassazione e o Revirement sobre os Danos Punitivos na Itália: Algumas Anotações
Authors: Posenato Naiara
Published: July 2019

O Acórdão 16.601, de 5 de julho de 2017, pode ser considerado um dos julgados de maior ressonância da Corte Suprema de Cassação italiana nos últimos anos. Nele, as Seções Unidas decidiram sobre a homologação de sentença estrangeira e, mediante o instituto de forte conteúdo nomofilático previsto no art. 363, 3, do c.p.c. italiano (Principio di diritto nell’interesse della legge) preanunciaram um revirement da própria jurisprudência e elaboraram um princípio jurídico geral que deixa antever a futura possibilidade de que sentenças estrangeiras de condenação a danos punitivos sejam reconhecidas. E, qual pressuposto para tal reconhecimento, afirmou expressamente a dúplice natureza – prevalentemente reparatória e, em menor medida, também sancionatória – da responsabilidade civil no ordenamento italiano.

Burn wound healing process consists of three phases of inflammation, proliferation and remodelling. The number of fibroblasts has increased during the proliferation phase. Oxidative stress in burn may disrupt proliferation through TGF-β inhibition, result in decreased number of fibroblasts and poor burn wound healing. Genistein in edamame seeds has anti-inflammatory, antibacterial and antioxidant properties. Edamame contains vitamins A, C, and E which is also have antioxidant properties. Edamame has been suggested to protect burn wound healing from oxidative stress. This study aimed to understand the effectiveness of edamame seed (Glycine max L. Merril) ethanolic extract (ED) to fibroblast count in second degree burn wound healing. This is true experimental research with post test only control group design. The sample of this research was 24 rat models of second degree burn which was made by attaching hot metal (60 ° C) for 5 seconds on the shaved back of the rats. The sample was divided into 6 groups with topical treatment, among others: positive control group (silver sulfadiazine), negative control group (Na CMC 0.5%), group with ED 20%, ED 40%, ED 60%, and ED 80%. Treatment was given for 15 days and skin sample was taken on the 16th day. Observation of the number of fibroblasts was done by taking pictures of histhologic preparations in Hematoxylin and Eosin staining under 400x magnification of light microscope. In one way ANOVA test, significance value of 0.011 (p≤0,05) indicated that there was at least a significant difference between 2 groups. LSD’s post hoc analysis showed that there was a significant difference in the group ED 20, 40, and 60% compared with negative control.

Published: July 2019

O presente artigo consiste em uma revisão integrativa da produção científica da Psicologia no Brasil sobre comportamento suicida de 2006 a 2017. O objetivo é conhecer como o comportamento suicida tem sido abordado nesse campo do saber. Para tanto, foram realizadas buscas de artigos científicos nas bases de dados Scielo e Pepsic, com os descritores “comportamento suicida”, “comportamento autodestrutivo” e “suicídio”. Os resultados apontaram que, entre 2006 e 2010, a produção era escassa e, entre 2011 e 2013, houve um aumento significativo, com o ápice no ano de 2013. Em 2014 e 2016, houve uma nova queda. Os estudos analisados dividiram-se em empíricos e teóricos, entre as abordagens psicológicas utilizadas para as discussões dos artigos, destacou-se a Psicanálise. Conclui-se que, apesar do suicídio ser considerado questão de saúde pública, existe uma escassez de estudos sobre prevenção e intervenções na rede de atenção psicosssocial.

THE EFFECT OF MULTILATERALISM, REGIONALISM, AND OPEN REGIONALISM TOWARDS EXPORTS: ASEAN-5 STUDY CASE
Authors: Lubin Mawar
Published: July 2019

Conceptually elimination or reduction of trade barriers through a Regional Trading Arrangement would increase export and import in the region. Trade diversion would take effect and make member countries buy each other goods and services that become cheaper. Open regionalism is another regionalism concept in which the parties involved promise to extend lower tariffs concession not only to member countries but also to other trading parters. This will hinder member countries to reap the benefit of trade diversion. This study examines the effect of Regionalism (afterAFTA was fully effective) and Open Regionalism (after Open Regionalism was fully effective for more developed APEC members) on ASEAN-5 countries’ export. Using ARIMAX model, the results show that regionalism has a significant yet negative effect on Malaysia and The Philippines and a positive significant effect on Singapore, whereas it is not significant for Indonesia and Thailand’s exports. Open regionalism is shown to be not significant for Indonesia, Thailand, and The Philippines exports but it has a negative significant impact for Singapore and Malaysia’s exports.

Published: July 2019

ABSTRACT Biococotin is a fertilizer made from human feces and dried cocopit. The use of dried human feces and cocopit can be carried out on sandy land. This is because human feces are one of the feces that have good soil nutrient ability. Can be used as fertilizer on sandy land. Good plant nutrition will correlate with crop yields and farmer's income. Biococotin with manure has been used by farmers. Research carried out on sand farm farmers in Bengkulu Province discussed Lempuing Village, Bengkulu. The study was conducted for one month, June-July 2018. The process of collecting data was obtained from experimental results and interviews. Financial amount of funds needed to build and then carry out business activities. The results obtained from the costs incurred by biococtin are greater than those with manure. The entire competition meets eligibility, but nothing is feasible. This is due to high operational costs. The biggest outpouring of costs is the purchase of dry cocopit. This is because there is no dry cocopit in Bengkulu. The purchase of cocopit is carried out beyond the Bengkulu area at high prices.Keywords:  Biococotin, Finansial; Bengkulu. ABSTRAK Biococotin salah satu pupuk yang terbuat dari tinja manusia dan cocopit kering. Pemanfaatan tinja manusia kering dan cocopit dapat dilakukan di lahan berpasir. Hal ini dikarenakan tinja manusia merupakan salah satu kotoran yang memiliki kemampuan nutrisi tanah yang baik. Sehingga dapat dimanfaatkan sebagai pupuk pada lahan berpasir. Nutrisi tanaman yang baik akan berkorelasi dengan hasil tanaman dan pendapatan petani. Sehingga perlu dianalisis bagaimana perbandingan pendapatan pupuk biococotin dengan pupuk kandang yang selama ini digunakan oleh petani.

Proses pengumpulan data di dapatkan dari hasil eksperimaental dan wawancara. analisiss data aspek finansial (keuangan), jumlah dana yang dibutuhkan untuk membangun dan kemudian mengoperasikan kegiatan bisnis. Hasil yang di dapatkan yaitu biaya yang dikeluarkan biococtin lebih besar dibanding dengan pupuk kandang. Keseluruhan komoditas memenuhi kelayakan, akan tetapi komoditas kangkung perlakuan biococotin tidak layak. Hal ini disebabkan karna biaya operasional yang tingi.  Curahan biaya paling besar yaitu dalam pembelian cocopit kering. Hal ini dikarenakan tidak tersedianya cocopit kering didaerah Bengkulu. Sehingga pembelian cocopit dilakukan diluar daerah Bengkulu dengan harga mahal.Kata kunci:  Biococotin, Finansial, Bengkulu.
Ma‘had 'Aly and the Challenge of Modernizing Islamic Education in Indonesia
Authors: Wajdi Firdaus , Nur Aulia Rihlah
Published: July 2019

This paper discovers one of the pesantren models in Indonesia that is considered understudied, the University Level of Pesantren (Ma‘had ‘Aly), pesantren which santris are the university students. Particularly, this paper explains the struggle of Pondok Pesantren Darus Sunnah in facing the challenges of modernizing Islamic Education in Indonesia. Over time, the majority of pesantren adopted modernization to meet the demands from the society and to gain broader recognition from the government. However, the Pondok Pesantren Darus Sunnah is one of the pesantrens that delay the modernization. This paper aims at explaining the reasons for the reluctance of Pondok Pesantren Darus Sunnah to respond to the modernization. To answer the above question, this study employs a qualitative approach with auto-ethnography as the main data-collection tool. The author takes the advantage of the author's experience while being a santri and ustadz at the Darus Sunnah Islamic Boarding School with observations as additional data collection methods. In brief, this study suggests that the Pondok Pesantren Darus Sunnah currently rejects modernization because it reduces the authority and traditional identity of the pesantren. Pondok Pesantren Darus Sunnah prefers to keep the traditional pesantren in line with the advice of the charismatic founder of the pesantren. The traditional model of pesantren has been proven to have produced qualified alumni who play significant role both at national and international levels. This paper also proposes degree equivalence as a solution to this issue of modernizing Islamic education institution.

Background

Malnutrition is a public health problem in many developing countries, Zambia inclusive. According to the Zambia Demographic and Health Survey, the stunting rate in children under five years old is at 40% while underweight is at 15% and wasting at 6%. The purpose of this study was to establish whether childcare practices have an influence on the nutritional status of children aged 6 to 23 months in Lusaka district.

Methods

A cross sectional study was employed targeting 239 children resident in Munali constituency in Zambia. A researcher administered questionnaire was used to collect data on demographic characteristics, hygiene practices, health seeking behaviour and food consumption pattern. Child anthropometric measurements were taken using calibrated scales and height/length boards for weight and length/height respectively. SPSS version 20 was used to analyse data. WHO AnthroPlus was used to generate anthropometric indices. Bivariate analysis used to establish associations between variables and logistic regression was used to establish predictors of stunting.

Results

Prevalence of wasting, underweight and stunting was 3.8%, 9.6% and 25.5%, respectively. Stunting was more prevalent among male than female children, (p-value = 0.015). Child care practices that were associated with stunting included: breastfeeding (p-value = 0.002), education level of caregiver (p-value = 0.013), type of toilet used (p – value = 0.004), child morbidity (p – value = 0.040), use of insecticide treated mosquito net (p – value = 0.012). Predictors of stunting included breastfeeding and child morbidity. Breastfeeding before the survey was associated with a reduction in risk of stunting among children (p-value = 0.009, OR = 0.347, 95% CI (0.156 – 0.769)). Surprisingly morbidity two weeks prior to the study was also associated with a reduction in the likelihood of stunting (p-value = 0.009, OR = 0.350, 95% CI (0.166 – 0.773)).

Conclusion

The study revealed high levels of stunting. Childcare practices that had a significant relationship to nutritional status of the children were: breastfeeding night before survey, type of toilet used, use of insecticide treated mosquito net, education level of caregiver and child morbidity.

Background
Gossypiboma or textiloma is an accidental retention of a textile in the operated area of the body. Abdominal surgery is the most responsible for these complication. The purpose of our study was to describe aspects observed in abdominal gossypibomas on CT-scan.
Methods
A retrospective study was conducted over 10 years (from January 1st, 2009 to December 31st, 2018) at the Teaching University Hospital of Lomé, including all the surgically confirmed cases of the abdominal gossypibomas who had abdominal CT-scan.
Results
Fifteen cases have been compiled, with a sex-ratio of 0.36. The average age of the patients was 34 years old. The initial surgery was an emergency intervention in 9/15 cases. It was a gynecological intervention in 11/15 cases. The incubation period of the symptoms related to textiloma was between 3 days and 3 years. On the CT-scan, a radiopaque marker was observed in 3/15 cases. An encapsulated and spongiform aspect in 6/15 cases. A cystic form was observed in 7/15 cases. We have noticed two cases of migration of the textiloma into a hollow organs.

RAD50, which is involved in the DNA double-strand break (DSB) repair process, is also involved in cancer outcomes. However, its role in hepatitis B virus (HBV)-associated hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) remains unclear. RAD50 increased in HCC tissues compared to normal tissues and was correlated with OS in the TCGA cohort. The validation analysis indicated that increased RAD50 was expressed in HCC tissues in the two independent cohorts, 107 and 100 patients from the Affiliated Hospital of Youjiang Medical University of Nationalities (AHYMUN) and the Affiliated Hospital of Nantong University (AHNTU), respectively. In addition, HCC patients with elevated RAD50 expression showed poor OS and DFS in the AHYMUN cohort and decreased OS and DFS in the AHNTU cohort. Furthermore, four datasets obtained from the Oncomine database validated the analysis of the differential expression of RAD50 in HCC tumors and normal tissues. In conclusion, our study reveals that elevated RAD50 expression is correlated with cancer progression and poor survival in HBV-related HCC patients. These data suggest that RAD50 may act as an oncogene and may serve as a promising therapeutic target for HCC patients.

Objective: To analyze the effect of serum TSH levels within the normal range on bone mineral density (BMD) of post-menopausal women and older men. Methods: A total of 570 subjects (305 older men aged 50 years or older and 265 post-menopausal women) with normal thyroid function were enrolled. According to the tertiles of serum normal TSH levels, men (T1, T2, and T3), and post-menopausal women (N1, N2, and N3) were divided into three groups, respectively. The differences in blood calcium, phosphorus, 25(OH) vit D, right calcaneal and left forearm BMD levels between the groups with different TSH levels were compared. Results: The right calcaneus BMD in T1 or T2 group of men was significantly lower than those in T3 group (all P<0.05). The right calcaneus and left forearm BMD in N1 or N2 group of post-menopausal women was significantly lower than those in N3 group (both P<0.05). There was no significant difference in serum calcium and phosphorus levels, 25 (OH) vit D between the three groups with different TSH levels of men or post-menopausal women (all P>0.05). The prevalence of right calcaneal osteoporosis of N1 or N2 group, and the prevalence of left forearm osteoporosis of N1 group in postmenopausal women was significantly higher than those of N3 group (all P<0.05). The TSH levels were significantly positively correlated with right calcaneal BMD of men (R=0.116, P=0.044), and positively correlated with right calcaneal and left forearm BMD of post-menopausal women (R=0.198 and R=0.135, P<0.05). BMD considered as the dependent variables, after adjusting for gender, age, BMI, waist circumference, serum calcium, phosphorus and 25 (OH) vit D levels, the risks of right calcaneal osteoporosis in N1 group of post-menopausal women were 2.278 times that of N3 group. The different TSH levels in men showed no association with the risks of osteoporosis (all P>0.05).
Conclusions: The normal serum TSH levels of men or post-menopausal women were related to BMD. The TSH levels within the lower normal range were associated with the risks of osteoporosis in post-menopausal women.
Peek Community Eye Health - mHealth system to increase access and efficiency of eye health services in Trans Nzoia County, Kenya: study protocol for a cluster randomised controlled trial.

Published: July 2019

Background: Globally eye care provision is currently insufficient to meet the requirement for eye care services. Lack of access and awareness are key barriers to specialist services, in addition, specialist services are over utilised by people with conditions that could be managed in the community or primary care. In combination, these lead to a large unmet need for eye health provision.

We have developed a validated smart phone-based screening algorithm (Peek Community Screening App). The application (App) is part of the Peek Community Eye Health system (Peek CEH) that enables Community Volunteer (CVs) to make referral decisions about patients with eye problems. It generates referrals, automated short messages service (SMS) notifications to patients or guardians and has a program dashboard for visualizing service delivery.

We hypothesize that a greater proportion of people with eye problems will be identified using the Peek CEH system and that there will be increased uptake of referrals, compared to those identified and referred using the current community screening approaches.

Study design: A single masked, cluster-randomised controlled trial design will be used. The unit of randomisation will be the “community unit”, defined as a dispensary or health centres with its catchment population. The community units will be allocated to receive either the intervention (Peek CEH system) or the current care (periodic health centre-based outreach clinics with onward referral for further treatment). In both arms, a triage clinic will be held at the link health facility four weeks from sensitization, where attendance will be ascertained. During triage participants will be assessed and treated, and if necessary referred onwards to Kitale eye unit.

Discussion: We aim to evaluate a M-health system (Peek CEH) geared towards reducing avoidable blindness through early identification and improved adherence to referral for those with eye problems and reducing demand at secondary care for conditions that can be managed effectively at primary care level.

Effects of dexmedetomidine on porcine pulmonary artery vascular smooth muscle
Authors: Sato Kenichi , Chikuda Mami
Published: July 2019

Background: The α2-receptor agonists, dexmedetomidine (Dex) have been shown to produce sedative and analgesic effects not only with systemic administration but also when administered in the extradural space and around peripheral nerves. However, the effects and mechanism of action of Dex on pulmonary arteries have not been determined. This study therefore aimed to investigate the effect of Dex on pulmonary arterial vascular smooth muscle by evaluating changes in isometric contraction tension. We then attempted to determine the effects of Dex on depolarization stimulation and receptor stimulation.
Methods: Endothelium-denuded porcine pulmonary arteries were sliced into 2- to 3-mm rings. We then exposed them to various substances at various concentrations under different conditions of baseline stimulation (with KCl, adrenaline, caffeine, or histamine) and of the α2-receptor stimulant or antagonists, or α1-receptor antagonist (with imidazoline, yohimbine, rauwolscine, or prazosin), and different conditions of Ca2+ depletion of the intracellular reservoir or extracellular stores, measuring the changes in isometric contraction tension with each addition or change in conditions. The concentration–response relation was determined at Dex concentrations of 10−10, 10−9, 10−8, 10−7, 10−6, 5×10−6, and 10−5 M and for other experiments at 5×10-6 M.
Results: Dex enhanced the contraction induced by high KCl stimulation, with the increases reaching significance at Dex concentrations of ≥5×10-6 M. The Dex-induced enhancement of contraction induced by high KCl was completely suppressed by yohimbine and rauwolscine, which are α2-receptor antagonists, but not by prazosin. Dex, imidazoline, yohimbine and rauwolscine reduced the increases in contraction tension induced by the receptor stimulant adrenaline. Dex suppressed the adrenaline-induced increases in contraction tension after depletion of Ca2+ reservoir. In the absence of extracellular Ca2+, Dex suppressed the adrenaline- and histamine-induced increases, and did not affect caffeine-induced increases in contraction tension.
Conclusions: Dex-enhanced high KCl-induced contraction was mediated by α2-receptors. Adrenaline-induced contraction was suppressed by the α2-receptor stimulant Dex and α2-receptor antagonists yohimbine and rauwolscine, suggesting that the effect of Dex on adrenaline-induced contraction is attributable to its α2-receptor-blocking action. Dex inhibited receptor-activated Ca2+ channels (RACCs) and phosphatidylinositol-1,4,5-triphosphate-induced Ca2+ release (IICR) but not Ca2+-induced Ca2+ release (CICR).
