Published: October 2019

Introdução: Estudos recentes demonstram que a deficiência de ácido fólico (AF) tem sido associada ao diabetes mellitus (DM). Ademais, sugere-se que a suplementação dessa substância opera como efeito neuroprotetor em diversas condições neurológicas, contribuindo inclusive para o reparo de danos a nervos periféricos, essa descoberta vislumbra a possibilidade do desenvolvimento de novas abordagens para a prevenção e tratamento da neuropatia diabética ND. Objetivo: O estudo tem como objetivo realizar uma revisão sobre o papel da suplementação do AF na ND através da análise dos resultados de exames de eletroneuromiografia (ENMG), histopatológicos, laboratoriais e da avaliação clínica realizada em modelos humanos e animais. Métodos: Trata-se de um estudo de revisão de literatura o qual utilizou bases de dados como PubMed, MEDLINE e LILACS para selecionar artigos entre 2000 e 2019. Foram incluídos os trabalhos com a combinação dos descritores: “folic acid” e “diabetic neuropathy”. Resultados: O estudo com modelos animais avaliou a resposta ao teste do plano inclinado, o qual verifica o desempenho clínico motor dos ratos. Após um mês de ensaio observou-se que o ângulo máximo atingido pelas cobaias que utilizaram placebo foi menor se comparado ao grupo controle (p < 0,001), já aquelas em uso do AF apresentaram um ângulo máximo significativamente maior (p < 0,05). No mesmo trabalho, a ENMG indicou que a cobaias em tratamento com AF apresentaram maior amplitude do potencial de ação muscular composto (PAMC) no nervo isquiático (p < 0,05), enquanto a latência e a duração desse potencial foram menores quando comparadas à amostra que utilizou placebo (p < 0,05). O resultado do exame histopatológico demonstrou que espessura da fibrose epineural foi significativamente menor no grupo com a suplementação, à medida que o fator de crescimento neural estava aumentado nas células de Schwann. Outro trabalho, pioneiro em humanos, avaliou a velocidade de condução nervosa (VCN) em pacientes já portadores de ND, sendo encontrada uma diferença significativa entre os grupos. Verificou-se um acréscimo na amplitude do componente sensorial do nervo sural (p < 0,001), assim como amplitude (p = 0.001) e velocidade (p = 0.001) do componente motor dos nervos tibial e peroneal. A latência inicial apresentou valor reduzido em ambos os nervos (p = 0,011; no nervo tibial e p= 0,019; no nervo peroneal). Conclusão: Nos ensaios citados a maioria dos valores de ENMG, exames laboratoriais, histopatológicos e clínicos expressaram benefícios nos grupos suplementados com AF verificando um possível efeito protetor e de melhora na progressão da doença com o uso da substância. Portanto, estudos com maior número de amostras são necessários para confirmação e extrapolação desses resultados, possibilitando a indicação do AF como medida terapêutica.

Introdução: A malária consiste em uma doença infecciosa febril aguda, não contagiosa, podendo ter evolução rápida, causada por protozoários do gênero Plasmodium, transmitidos pelo vetor fêmea do mosquito Anopheles. No Brasil encontramos P. vivax, P. falciparum e P. malarie. As manifestações clínicas caracterizam-se, principalmente, por febre elevada, sudorese, calafrios, cefaleia e dores no corpo. Apesar de ser endêmica da região amazônica, a letalidade da malária fora desta região é cerca de 80 vezes maior devido ao atraso, tanto do diagnóstico quanto do início da terapêutica. Objetivos: Relatar o perfil epidemiológico de pacientes com suspeita de malária. Metodologia: Estudo descritivo, observacional e transversal. Resultados: Foram atendidos no HUOP 13 casos suspeitos de pacientes com malária, sendo que 69,23% (9) eram do sexo masculino e 61,53% (8) eram brancos. A média geral de idade observada foi de 50,15 anos. Sinais e sintomas como febre e mialgia foram relatados em apenas um caso, após viagem à região endêmica. Os casos suspeitos foram encaminhados à Vigilância Epidemiológica do município por ser um agravo passível de notificação compulsória. Os métodos de diagnóstico laboratorial utilizados foram a gota espessa (GE) e o teste rápido – imunocromatográfico (TR). Das suspeitas de malária, 46,15% (6) foram confirmadas com características morfológicas de P. vivax em todos dos casos. O tratamento foi relatado em apenas dois casos, ambos utilizaram a Primaquina 5 mg associado a Cloroquina, de diferentes formas. Conclusões: Observou-se uma maior incidência da espécie P. vivax, caracterizado pelo quadro febril e mialgia, predominante em pacientes do sexo masculino. Tanto os sintomas, como detalhes em relação a terapêutica não foram relatados no prontuário do paciente na maioria dos casos. Apesar do quadro de atendimento emergencial, especialmente longe de áreas endêmicas, o quadro febril inespecífico da malária pode ser confundido com outras doenças e, assim, conduzir ao diagnóstico e tratamento tardios, complicações graves e a morte.

Hematomas extradurais de vértex (HEVs) são entidades raras e que apresentam taxa de mortalidade entre 18 e 50%. Os HEVs são altamente associados às fraturas de vértice e diástase das suturas cranianas. Apresentamos o caso de um paciente jovem, masculino, que apresentou TCE após queda de própria altura durante atividade física coletiva, resultando em perda da consciência seguida de cefaleia intensa e vômitos persistentes. Foi realizada TC de crânio, a qual evidenciou HEV e fratura do tipo diastásica da sutura sagital, associada a contusão hemorrágica frontobasal e bifrontal. Foi optado por realizar tratamento conservador em unidade de terapia intensiva, realizando exames neurológico e de imagem seriados. O paciente manteve cefaleia durante todo o internamento, evoluindo com paresia incompleta do nervo abducente à direita, com resolução completa da paresia ao 10° dia. Após alta hospitalar, o paciente manteve acompanhamento ambulatorial, apresentando resolução completa do hematoma após 60 dias; no entanto, apresentou-se com anosmia bilateral durante todo o período em que esteve em acompanhamento.

The article presents the experience of Santo André/SP’s municipality with the training teachers for gender issues, as part of strategy for combat the domestic violence and femicide. It is based on the assumption that domestic violence phenomenon is the result of a long historical process marked by patriarchy.The work was developed by the Santo André’s Women Policies Secretariat with the Education’s Secretariat in a partnership, through the adhesion to the campaign Quem Ama Abraça, fazendo escola. Among the actions, a university extension course was carried out with training in various equipment for attending to women victims of violence. The theoretical framework included the feminist and gender studies. The results show that, during the campaign period, the Santo André Women’s Reference Center registered an increase in the number of women attending, who sought guidance to leave the cycle of violence and / or requested shelter and protective measures. In schools there was more systematic discussions on the subject, in which gender stereotypes and sexist practices have been problematized. Concludes that it is urgent to create at schools spaces for the reflection as a way to confront this violence that hurts and leaves marks on children, youth and adults.

AS MULHERES E O DIREITO À CIDADE
Authors: SADER Ana Paula Cabral , GOMES Márcio Fernando , NICOLETE Jamilly Nicácio
Published: October 2019

This text aims at discussing the occupation of the city as a human right, relating it with the ideals of freedom and equality. From a literature review and a current news analysis, we note that public spaces are undemocratic, especially for women. Considering the city as a dynamical space, it is urgent to rethink the need to universalize the occupation rights of each space without discrimination, which would lead us to believe deeply in a greater possibility of achieving equal opportunities. Unfortunately, what we realize is that women’s movement in cities is much less linear. To change the dominant thinking and the right to the city towards to an equality and diversity one, also considering its own accessibility to the city and its different spaces is a worth part of the reflections we present.

Authors: Sung Victor W. , Gandhi Sanjay K. , Abler Victor , Davis Brian , Irwin Debra E. , Anderson Karen E. , Iyer Ravi G.
Published: October 2019

Background: Huntington’s disease (HD) is a multifaceted neurodegenerative disorder characterized by involuntary movements, specifically chorea, as well as behavioral and psychiatric disturbance, and cognitive dysfunction. Tetrabenazine was the first approved treatment for chorea, although tolerability concerns exist. Objectives: To characterize demographic and clinical characteristics of HD patients with chorea based on tetrabenazine use and examine treatment persistence with tetrabenazine in a real-world setting. Methods: Patients with a claim for HD-associated chorea (ICD-9-CM code 333.4) between 1/1/08 and 9/30/15 were selected from the MarketScan® Commercial and Medicare Supplemental databases. The first diagnosis date during the study period was considered the index date, with ≥6 months of continuous medical and prescription coverage before and after the index date. Treatment persistence was defined as the number of days from initiation to discontinuation or end of follow-up period. Discontinuation was defined as a gap in therapy of ≥60 days. Results: 1644 patients met selection criteria (mean age ± standard deviation: 54.5 ± 15.5), of which 151 (9.2%) were treated with tetrabenazine during the study period. The average (median) daily dose of tetrabenazine during the treatment period was 45.5 (42.3) mg/day. A total of 41.8% (59/141) of HD patients who initiated tetrabenazine experienced a ≥60-day gap in tetrabenazine therapy, with a median time to discontinuation of 293.5 days. During the 6-month post-index period after HD diagnosis, HD patients incurred higher all-cause healthcare costs ($20 204) vs the 6-month pre-index period ($6057), driven by higher hospitalization and pharmacy costs. Conclusions:A small percentage of HD patients with chorea were treated with tetrabenazine and discontinuation rates were high among those receiving treatment, with a median time to discontinuation of 9 months.

Tujuan dari limbah penelitian ini mengevaluasi efek dari metode pemberian makan pada total ransum campuran (TMR) pada jagung strawbase amoniak pada susu laktosa, lemak susu, dan produksi susu pada sapi perah. Percobaan dilakukan dengan menggunakan rancangan acak kelompok (RAK) dengan 3 perlakuan dan 5 kelompok berdasarkan bulan laktasi. Perlakuan diaplikasikan pada T0 = non TMR, T1 = TMR pada dasar jerami jagung, dan T2 = TMR pada dasar jerami jagung teramoniasi. Data dianalisis dengan analisis prosedur varians dan diikuti oleh uji kontras ortogonal. Hasil uji kontras orthogonal menunjukkan bahwa rata-rata susu laktosa dan lemak susu pada perlakuan non TMR (T0) tidak berbeda nyata (p> 0,05) dibandingkan dengan TMR pada basis jerami jagung dengan dan tanpa amoniak. Rata-rata susu laktosa dan lemak susu pada perlakuan TMR pada basis amoniak jerami jagung (T2) secara signifikan lebih tinggi dibandingkan dengan TMR pada basis jerami jagung tanpa amoniak (T1). Rata-rata produksi susu tidak dipengaruhi oleh pengobatan (p> 0,05). TMR pada basis amoniak jerami jagung (T2) menghasilkan produksi tertinggi susu terkoreksi 4% lemak adalah 2085,83 kg / laktasi. Fenomena ini menunjukkan bahwa TMR pada amonium jagung berbasis ampas efektif diterapkan oleh masyarakat untuk meningkatkan produktivitas sapi perah.

Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui pengaruh penggunaan limbah ampas tahu pada feses sapi terhadap produksi metan, kecernaan bahan organik dan nilai pH. Perlakuan yang diterapkan yaitu T0 dengan bahan isian 100 % feses sapi peranakan fries holstein (PFH) ditambah air (1:1) dan T1 dengan bahan isian 95 % feses sapi PFH dan 5 % limbah ampas tahu kemudia diencerkan dalam air (1:1). Ulangan yang dilakukan adalah dengan pengambilan data sebanyak 3 kali Hydraulic retention time (HRT), dimana satu kali HRT sama dengan 25 hari. Hasil dari penelitian ini adalah tidak ada pengaruh yang nyata (P>0,05) dari perlakuan yang diterapkan terhadap produksi metan, kecernaan bahan organik dan nilai pH. Tidak berpengaruhnya perlakuan penambahan ampas tahu terhadap produksi metan dikarenakan penambahan C/N hanya sebesar 1,72 dari selisih ratio T0 dengan T1. Nilai pH pada masing-masing digester berada pada kisaran nilai pH yang baik untuk pertumbuhan mikroorganisme anaerobik dalam menghasilkan biogas. Penambahan ampas tahu pada substrat biogas pada taraf 5% pada feses sapi perah diperoleh hasil produksi gas metan, kecernaan bahan organik, dan pH slurry yang tidakberbeda nyata dari kedua digester.

An Agenda for AAPI Community Economic Development
Authors: Huh Kil , Hasegawa Lisa
Published: October 2019

Asian American and Pacific Islander (AAPI) community-based organizations (CBO’s) are key players in providing many services such as job training programs and civic education. The focus of community development has changed due to the increased technical and professional industry. Today’s AAPI CBO groups are heterogeneous as many groups focus in different services whether it is ethnic specific or age group specific. However, the CBOs are unevenly spread across the country. AAPI need to work on expanding its system-wide support on the local, state, and federal levels. The article discusses a social networks approach to aid in CBOs goals and the social capital approach, remarking that social ties are crucial for the well-being of the community. The term ‘community’ is explored as it means different things to different people, and the problem of lumping diverse ethnicities within the Asian American group because it homogenizes them and fails to distinguish a particular group’s concern. The vital aspect is to create community development infrastructure ensuring the inclusion of AAPI CBOs to foster strong AAPI communities, as an essential program in the broader plan of reviving US neighborhoods.
Asian Americans are People of Color, Too. . .Aren’t They? Cross-Racial Alliances and the Question of Asian American Political Identity
Authors: Kim Claire Jean
Published: October 2019

Asian Americans are involved in cross-racial community and advocacy coalitions. The article explores the barriers and problems that people in these groups encounter, which impede their progress in sustaining impactful and influential agenda and decisions. The central problem behind this is Asian American’s ambiguous political stance, thereby making coalition partners apprehensive. Asian American’s lack of definitive political identity and how they relate to other racial background pose as a problem to coalition building. A brief look to one of the earliest Asian American immigrants to the US shows that even from the very beginning Asian Americans have occupied a highly ambiguous position in American society. Discussed is the central question of what Asian Americans are fighting for in terms of social justice. Asian Americans need to discuss their political identification and agenda as a way to sustain cross-alliances and to have a secure future in American society. Asian Americans as an internally diverse group explain the difficulty of having a unified voice representing our political stance. Two Asian American grassroots organizations with clear political identities are explored.
Checking Southeast Asian American Realities in Pan-Asian American Agendas
Authors: Kiang Peter Nien-chu
Published: October 2019

This article is based on a briefing paper commissioned by the Harvard Civil Rights Project for a Roundtable on Emerging Asian American Civil Rights Issues held in Cambridge, Massachusetts in October 2002. I was asked to address whether subgroups within the Asian American population have been adequately served by pan-Asian American agendas, particularly in relation to civil rights advocacy, and to highlight specific instances that show both positive and negative dimensions of those dynamics. In response, I chose to focus on Southeast Asian American (Cambodian, Hmong, Lao, Mien, Vietnamese, etc.) populations who, by measures of socioeconomic status, persistent poverty, and quality of life, are the most poorly resourced ethnic constituencies within Asian America. Through analysis of issues related to educational equity, policy, and development, both nationally and locally in the state of Massachusetts, I describe ways in which Southeast Asian American realities have been neglected or ignored. In light of the ethical and empirical consequences of failing to intervene proactively in this local and national commitments have had sustained impact. Finally, I suggest some ways to account more faithfully for the needs, interests, and visions of Southeast Asian American communities in the development of pan-Asian American civil rights agendas. Underlying my argument are commitments to equity and justice rather than identity and representation per se.
Vote to Empower Yourself, Stupid
Authors: Woo S.B.
Published: October 2019

Asian Americans (AA’s) lacks of political know-how owe itself to two primary reasons: family education and AAs political culture. AAs are mostly immigrants and therefore we are not that knowledgeable about how American politics. The second reason is that AAs lack cultural background in democracy. The article discusses how the founding fathers and writers of the Constitution intend citizens to vote, and approximates AA’s voting power. Vote for your own interest, and hence why we have a government that has multi-legislative bodies. By voting our own interests, America benefits, and relates to ‘The Invisible Hand’ theory. America’s democracy is the driven by the same force as its society, which market-driven. We need to serve politicians in order that they can in turn serve us. We also need to use our political clout to address major problems affecting AA’s such as the glass ceiling issue.
Getting Out the Vote among Asian Americans in Los Angeles County: The Effects of Phone Canvassing
Authors: Wong Janelle
Published: October 2019

Asian Americans are the fastest growing segment of the population yet have one of the lowest voter turnouts. The article provides some explanation why this is so, and political mobilization is one of the causes given. There is an experimental voter mobilization conducted in high-density Asian American communities in Los Angeles County, calling the treatment group to encourage them to vote. The difference between the control group and the treatment group is explained. The purpose of the experiment is to understand the political behavior of Asian Americans, a group who exhibit a lower voter turnout. The methods employed allow researches to accurately measure the effectiveness of mobilization on voter turnout. Another goal of the article is to figure out strategies to harness limited sources within a community to mobilize Asian Americans to vote. A list of the findings of the study and policy implications is discussed.
The Bridge Program: A Model for Delivering Mental Health Services to Asian Americans through Primary Care
Authors: Chen Hongtu , Kramer Elizabeth , Chen Teddy , Chen Jianping , Chung Henry
Published: October 2019

Compared to all other racial and ethnic groups, Asian Americans have the lowest utilization of mental health services. Contributing factors include extremely low community awareness about mental health, a lack of culturally competent Asian American mental health professionals, and severe stigma associated with mental illness. This manuscript describes an innovative program that bridges the gap between primary care and mental health services. The Bridge Program, cited in the supplement to the Surgeon’s General’s Report on Mental Health: Culture, Race, and Ethnicity as a model for delivery of mental health services through primary care; (2) to improve capacity by enhancing the skills of primary care providers to identify and treat mental disorders commonly seen in primary care; and (3) to raise community awareness by providing health education on mental health and illness. Results are presented and the potential for replication is addressed.
Asian Americans in the Labor Market: Public Policy Issues
Authors: Mar Don
Published: October 2019

Asian American/Pacific Islander public policy issues in the labor market are examined using the 2000 Census PUMS (Public Use Micro Sample) data. AAPI labor market problems raised by earlier studies are revisited with the more recent data. Southeast Asians, Vietnamese, Native Hawaiians, and Pacific Islanders continue to face problems of poverty/low income, unemployment, and discrimination in occupations and earnings. Many API groups are less likely to be employed in managerial occupations controlling for factors such as education and potential experience. New policy issues suggested by the data are lower rates of self-employment for many APIs compared to non-Hispanic whites as well as lower rates of homeownership by all API groups compared to non-Hispanic whites.
Weak Winners of Globalization: Indian H-1B Workers in the American Information Economy
Authors: Chakravartty Paula
Published: October 2019

This article examines the complexity of the debate around the temporary worker visa known as the H-1B program for highly skilled foreign nationals. The debate against the H-1B visa program has been dominated by what feminist economist Naila Kabeer has argued are “coalitions of ‘powerful losers’ in the north seeking to claw back the gains made from international trade by ‘weak winners’ in the south” (Kabeer 2002). I argue that these metaphors are resonant in the debate over the H-1B visa program, where displaced American Information Technology (IT) workers conflate the role of Indian H-1B workers as both vulnerable victims of corporate greed and menacing threats to national prosperity and security, reinforcing both symbolic and institutional racism against this new category of Asian immigrant worker. Based on interviews with over 100 Indian H-1B workers, this paper challenges many of the assumptions about “indentured servitude,” and my findings suggest alternate policy alternatives to pitting the interests of “cheap Indian workers” against the interests of “Americans.”
The Risk of Timing Out: Welfare-to-Work Services to Asian Immigrants and Refugees
Authors: Chow Julian , Osterling Kathy , Xu Qingwen
Published: October 2019

With the passage of the Personal Responsibility and Work Opportunity Reconciliation Act of 1996, welfare recipients are faced with new work requirements and sanctions, including a five-year time limit on receiving public assistance. Due to difficulties in adjustment to American society and lack of human capital for the labor market, Asian immigrants and refugees face obstacles transitioning from welfare to work. The majority of individuals in the San Francisco Bay Area who have reached the five-year time limit since January 2003 are of Asian descent. Without adequate welfare-to-work services, restrictions and time limits are leaving many Asian recipients without the proficiencies required for employment, as well as without the cash assistance needed for survival. Using a qualitative study approach by conducting three focus groups with Asian welfare recipients in the San Francisco Bay Area, findings of this study indicate that existing welfare-to-work programs do not meet the unique needs of this population. Their barriers for achieving self-sufficiency are not adequately addressed by welfare reform’s “work first” approach. Instead, findings suggest that welfare-to-work program strategies for this population should incorporate culturally competent support services, human capital development, and strength-based approaches. As more Asian immigrant families lose cash assistance as a result of reaching the five-year time limit, the need to improve welfare-to-work programs and policies for this population has become increasingly urgent.
Become Visible: Let Your Voice Be Heard

Published: October 2019

Since 1982, Leadership Education for Asian Pacifics, Inc. (LEAP) has been intent on “growing leaders” within Asian Pacific American (APA) communities across the country. LEAP’s founders had a simple yet powerful idea: In order for APA communities to realize their full potential and to foster robust participation in the larger democratic process, those communities must develop leaders in all sectors who can advocate and speak on their behalf. A national, nonprofit organization, LEAP achieves its mission by: Developing people, because leaders are made, not born; Informing society, because leaders know the issues; and Empowering communities, because leaders are grounded in strong, vibrant communities.
Asian Pacific American Senior Executives in the Federal Government
Authors: Wu Jeremy , Eoyang Carson
Published: October 2019

This article calls attention to the lack of workforce diversity in promoting Asian Pacific Americans to the highest career levels in the federal government. It describes the historic difficulties in realizing significant numbers of APAs in the senior ranks of almost all government agencies. Two major reports from the General Accounting Office (GAO) corroborate this view and depict the pessimistic prospects for any significant improvement in the immediate future. It is urged that there be prompt implementation of the recommendations from the GAO, that specific agency plans and actions be established and monitored, that Congress continue to exercise close oversight regarding federal workforce diversity, and that Office of Personnel Management (OPM) collect and disseminate timely, accurate workforce demographics so that all agencies can be held accountable to the American public.
Singhs, Watanabes, Parks and Nguyens: A Comparison of Surname-list Samples to Probability Samples Using the California Health Interview Survey, 2001
Authors: Ponce Ninez , Gatchell Melissa
Published: October 2019

The lack of health data on Asian ethnic subgroups has been noted as the major setback in dispelling the myth of the model minority. Population-representative samples of this relatively low-frequency racial group still fail to yield sufficient sample size to provide disaggregated information on Asian ethnic groups. As such, health information for Asian American subgroups is often acquired from surname list-assisted sampling methods, which may be fraught with biases toward particular groups not representative of the overall population. As one of the first major surveys to use both RDD and surname list-assisted sampling methods to sample Asian subgroups, the 2001 California Health Interview Survey provides the unique opportunity to determine whether significant differences exist between the RDD sample and the list-assisted sample for South Asians, Japanese, Koreans and Vietnamese. For each Asian ethnic group, we performed chi-squared tests to compare the list and RDD sample proportions for several demographic health access and health status measures. We found that demographic differences in lists versus probability samples are most pronounced among South Asians and Vietnamese and to a lesser extent among Japanese, but it is less of an issue among Koreans. In addition, we found that the list and RDD samples did not deviate significantly from each other in most of the health status and health access measures. Particularly for South Asians, Japanese, Koreans and Vietnamese, we conclude that surname lists approximated population-based estimates of their health status and health access and surname list sampling should continue to be considered as an alternative strategy when cost constraints prohibit investment in probability-based oversamples.
Measuring State-Level Asian American and Pacific Islander Health Disparities: The Case of Illinois
Authors: Tao Laurent , Han Jini , Shah Ami
Published: October 2019

Illinois is home to the sixth largest Asian American and Pacific Islander (AAPI) population nationwide. AAPIs suffer higher incidence, morbidity, and mortality rates from certain cancers, infectious, and chronic diseases. Despite the exponential growth of the AAPI population, few state-level data sources exist that provide detailed and accurate information regarding AAPI health disparities and needs. Efforts to improve health care for this population will require improved data collection and funding for research on AAPI ethnic groups.
