ANÁLISE DA RELAÇÃO ENTRE A MÍDIA E OS MEIOS DE COMUNICAÇÃO E SUA ABORDAGEM EM FACE DA COBERTURA DE CRIMES E SEU IMPACTO NO SISTEMA JURÍDICO PENAL
Authors: Cruz Lara Priscila Ferreira da
Published: November 2024

The research “Analysis of the Relationship between the Media and the Means of Communication and their Approach to the Coverage of Crimes and their Impact on the Criminal Legal System” investigates how the media influences public perception and the functioning of the criminal system when covering crimes and investigations . The study examines the role of the press in forming opinions and constructing narratives that can impact judgment and the application of justice, considering issues such as the presumption of innocence, social pressure on the judiciary and the risk of creating “media courts ”. The central problem of this research is to understand how the media, when disseminating information about criminal cases, can influence the perception of public opinion and, eventually, affect the decisions of criminal system operators. The analysis highlights that, although the media can act positively by informing and raising awareness in society, its sensationalist approach in some cases can compromise the impartiality of the criminal process. The research proposes that more ethical and balanced coverage could help protect the rights of those involved and strengthen reliability in the justice system, arguing for the need for regulations to achieve this balance between press freedom and impartial justice.
NAVIGATING THE DIGITAL LANDSCAPE: ENSURING YOUTH SAFETY AND WELL-BEING ONLINE
Authors: Silva Flavio Ambrosio Da
Published: November 2024

The internet plays a crucial role in the daily lives of children and adolescents, offering vast opportunities for learning and socialization while simultaneously posing significant risks to their digital safety and well-being. To navigate this complex environment safely, a proactive approach emphasizing education, communication, and appropriate technologies is essential. Digital literacy is vital, informing youth about online dangers like cyberbullying and inappropriate content, while raising awareness about privacy and data security is crucial. Open dialogues between parents, educators, and young people can help identify issues early on and foster a supportive atmosphere. Adopting safety tools, such as parental control software, should complement broader strategies that prioritize dialogue and education. Furthermore, promoting digital well-being is equally important; encouraging youth to balance screen time with physical activities and real-world interactions contributes to their emotional and social development. Research by Medina and Todd (2017) reveals a shift in the online environment, necessitating a focus on the holistic intellectual and social well-being of young users. Additional studies indicate that marginalized youth face higher online risks and require targeted interventions to improve their digital literacy and safety strategies. Finally, the complexities of peer support in managing self-harm through social media highlight the need for a nuanced understanding of the digital landscape. Addressing these challenges requires collaboration among stakeholders to ensure young people are equipped with the necessary skills and support to thrive in a rapidly evolving digital world.
CONHECIMENTOS SOBRE RASTREIO E DIAGNÓSTICO PRECOCE DE CÂNCER DE COLO UTERINO ENTRE AS MULHERES QUE FREQUENTAM UM AMBULATÓRIO DE UM CENTRO UNIVERSITÁRIO NA CIDADE DE PORTO VELHO – RO - BRASIL

Published: November 2024

Cervical cancer (CCU) is one of the most common types among women, making early diagnosis essential for better prognoses. It is characterized by slow progression, but it is amenable to screening and rapid detection, which can lead to effective treatment and a promising prognosis. Human papiloma virus (HPV) infection, especially by subtypes 16 and 18, is a necessary but not sufficient condition for the development of cervical cancer. The oncotic cytology test (Pap smear) aims to detect precursor lesions of CCU. This study investigated the level of knowledge about cervical cancer screening and early diagnosis among women attending an outpatient clinic at a University Center in Porto Velho, RO. A qualitative and descriptive approach was used through questionnaires to assess understanding of the preventive exam (Pap smear), risk factors, and preventive practices. The results showed: (i) high adherence to the cervical cancer preventive exam among participants; (ii) non-use of condoms (70%); (iii) educational actions on the preventive exam (60%); (iv) structural and personal barriers limiting access to the preventive exam; (v) 56.7% of participants had information about HPV; (vi) 83.3% of participants reported knowledge of cervical cancer; (vii) lack of knowledge about the frequency of the preventive exam in 55% of participants; (viii) 88.3% believe that early diagnosis improves prognosis and treatment success. The results of this study may help to develop effective educational interventions that encourage the preventive exam, contributing to reducing incidence and mortality rates associated with CCU, and improving women’s health in the region.
IMPACTO DA CIRURGIA BARIÁTRICA NA FUNÇÃO RESPIRATÓRIA EM PACIENTES OBESOS: UMA REVISÃO INTEGRATIVA
Authors: Carvalho Maria Eduarda Souza de , Silva João Manoel dos Santos , Moreira Mayara Hellen de Sousa , Sousa Noé Victor Damasceno Carvalho , Ribeiro João Luiz Vieira
Published: November 2024

A cirurgia bariátrica, utilizada no tratamento da obesidade mórbida, é uma intervenção eficaz na redução de peso e na melhora da qualidade de vida. Além disso, a perda de massa corporal proporcionada por essa cirurgia pode influenciar diretamente a função respiratória. Isso ocorre porque o excesso de peso está intimamente ligado a alterações no sistema respiratório, como dificuldades ventilatórias e comprometimento da mecânica pulmonar. Desse modo, torna-se fundamental entender como a redução significativa de peso, promovida pela bariátrica, impacta a função respiratória dos pacientes

Published: November 2024

Este estudo tem como objetivo propor estratégias de intervenção para reduzir a incidência de câncer do colo do útero, com foco na ampliação da prevenção antes dos 25 anos. Os objetivos específicos incluíram: analisar as práticas atuais de prevenção do câncer do colo do útero; identificar os desafios enfrentados por pacientes acometidas pela doença; discutir os benefícios da realização e divulgação do PCCU em mulheres com menos de 25 anos; e elaborar estratégias de intervenção de enfermagem que possam ser implementadas nas Unidades Básicas de Saúde. A metodologia empregada foi descritiva, exploratória e explicativa, com enfoque quantitativo. O estudo utilizou o caso censitário baseado em dados estatísticos do (INCA), aliado a uma revisão da literatura. As fontes de dados foram obtidas por meio de pesquisa bibliográfica e observação de artigos científicos e informações disponíveis em plataformas do governo federal, como o Google Acadêmico, SciELO, CAPES e a Biblioteca Virtual em Saúde (BVS). O referencial teórico foi composto por estudos que abordam o exame preventivo do câncer do colo do útero em mulheres abaixo da idade preconizada, com a exclusão de publicações sem dados conclusivos. Conclui-se que a antecipação da coleta do PCCU para mulheres que iniciam a vida sexual antes dos 25 anos pode ser uma estratégia eficaz para a detecção precoce do câncer do colo do útero, reduzindo a mortalidade e os custos associados ao tratamento em estágios avançados.

AVALIAÇÃO DA UTILIZAÇÃO DA PRESCRIÇÃO DE ANTIBIÓTICOS PROFILÁTICOS EM CIRURGIAS ORTOPÉDICAS
Authors: Faria Marrone Lopes de , Alves Filho José Roberto
Published: November 2024

A administração de antibióticos adequados antes da cirurgia pode reduzir o risco de infecções em até 70%, dependendo do procedimento e da adequação do protocolo seguido. Cerca de 1 a 2% das cirurgias ortopédicas que envolvem próteses articulares são complicadas por infecções, o que reforça a necessidade de profilaxia eficaz. O presente trabalho tem como objetivo analisar a adequação das prescrições de antibióticos profiláticos. As infecções hospitalares, são uma preocupação crescente nos serviços de saúde devido à alta morbimortalidade e ao surgimento de novos microrganismos e emergentes responsáveis por essas infecções. Diversos fatores influenciam o aparecimento das IRAS, incluindo a fonte de infecção, o agente infeccioso, a via de transmissão, a susceptibilidade do hospedeiro e o ambiente. O trabalho é de revisão, com busca em artigos científicos publicados em revistas eletrônicas nos últimos 15 anos. A escolha do antibiótico é crucial, as cefalosporinas são amplamente recomendadas devido à sua eficácia contra patógenos, que são os principais agentes causadores de infecções em ortopedia. Recomenda-se que a administração do medicamento seja realizada de 30 a 60 minutos antes da incisão cirúrgica, garantindo que a concentração do antibiótico seja adequada durante o início da cirurgia. A dosagem precisa é essencial para evitar subdosagens, que poderiam comprometer a eficácia e favorecer o crescimento bacteriano. A variação na prática de antibioticoprofilaxia entre diferentes instituições e regiões, sugere que a conscientização dos profissionais de saúde e a padronização são imprescindíveis e podem ser melhoradas para reduzir os riscos e aumentar a eficácia no tratamento dos pacientes.

Bergson's GIS: Experience, Time and Memory in Geographical Information Systems
Authors: Shields Rob
Published: November 2024

Geographical Information Systems (GIS) intended as digital forms of mapping struggle to represent time, change and temporality. The assumption of a static Cartesian, metric space of two or three dimensions only and defined by coordinates makes it difficult to create GIS and Historical GIS (HGIS) interfaces and representations that include the dynamics Bergson and later Deleuze describe. They argue that temporal memory is the basis of attention in encounters and perception of situations. This “affiliation” of the past enlivens the present perceptual life of experience. Video gaming and the combination of Google Earth and Street View are explored as limited alternatives that draw on embodied, kinaesthetic experiences of movement in space to open up or “uncurl” extra dimensions that allow more nuance in digital representations of spatiotemporal encounters, and the many modes and rhythms of duration found in the environment.

The Psychogeographies of Site-Specific Art
Authors: MacDonald Shana
Published: November 2024

Contemporary efforts at urban revitalization have encouraged an increased production of site-specific public art events that temporarily inhabit popular city hubs. These â€œpop upâ€ interventions range from loosely assembled happenings to the more institutionally supported all-night art festivals like Nuit Blanche. This paper examines the types of geospatial memory produced and inscribed through small-scale, participatory, site-specific urban art events. It considers how this work participates in forms of placemaking which both enact provisional and iterative forms of assembly while also marking the psychogeographic remains of space. Taking up examples from SensoriuM lab (Montreal) and Mobile Art Studio (Kitchener), the paper suggests how public art may be used to elicit performance-based and participatory geospatial media that maps residentsâ€™ embodied and historied relationship to urban space.
Tracing Tempor(e)alities in the Age of Media Mobility
Authors: Ernst Wolfgang
Published: November 2024

New forms of tempor(e)alities coemerge with the geospatial aspect in media mobility. Though mobile devices predominantly communicate by the visual interface, on its technologically operative level it is rather akin to radio in terms of the electro-magnetic spectrum, and to the binary alphabet of algorithmicized codes. The media-archaeological approach to geospatial â€œmemoryâ€ therefore analyzes data transfer from distributed storage agencies and interactive â€œonlineâ€-citizenship. Geospatial media analysis (navigation, mobility, orientation) is necessarily accompanied by micro-temporal analytics. Digital communication of cultural memory transforms from the traditionally space-based archives (its â€œtectonicsâ€) into dynamic up-dating in high frequency steps; site-specific memory is substituted by media-specific storage, recall and transfer. Symbolic urban cityscapes become a phenomenal function of underlying media infrastructures which take place at the emptiness left by former cultural and collective memory.

The Public Panopticon Manifesto
Authors: Popiel Pawel
Published: November 2024

Despite occasional frictions with regulators, tech giants like Amazon, Facebook, and Google have enjoyed a relatively unfettered business climate in the U.S. and congenial, even cooperative relations with the state. Although concerns over foreign election meddling, the proliferation of fake news, and growing market power brought unwanted attention from lawmakers, the media, and policy experts, the tech sectorâ€™s imprint on social and political life remains immense and largely unchecked. This manifesto outlines the contours of this economic and political power. It frames its growth as a failure not just of policy, but also of the policymaking process and the political culture that underpins it. To address this failure, it articulates â€œthe public panopticonâ€ â€“ a new policymaking structure that reimagines the power dynamics within the policymaking process, a reorientation in policy priorities, and a revived public interest at its core.
'Mediatization': Media Theory's Word of the Decade
Authors: Corner John
Published: November 2024

This short commentary looks at aspects of the debate about the term ‘mediatization’, paying particular attention to recent, cross-referring exchanges both in support of the concept and critical of it. In the context of its widespread use, it suggests that continuing questions need to be asked about the conceptual status of the term, the originality of the ideas it suggests and the kinds of empirical project to which it relates.
There Isn't an App for That: Analogue and Digital Politics in the Age of Platform Capitalism
Authors: Hassan Robert
Published: November 2024

The move toward digitality and its individual-level spread through computer applications (apps) is transforming how we communicate. A major component of this transformation is the political process: both how it is enacted and how effective it is for the promotion of democracy. The political process has become both faster and ‘lighter’. The acceleration of the political process has received considerable attention over the last decade, but the essay introduces the idea of a ‘lightness’ that accompanies acceleration. This is connected to digitality and its concomitant diminution of our inherent human analogue capacities. The analogue capacities that enabled democratic politics in its modern version have been eclipsed by what are their digital antitheses. An analogue engendered political process continues to exist, but it functions at the elite levels of business and government; whereas the digitally-created ‘lightness’ of the virtual sphere constitutes the political process for the growing millions. The essay argues that this is an essentially alienating sphere that offers little by way of the traction and roots necessary for democratic and inclusive politics to grow and flourish.
Forensic Aesthetics for Militarized Drone Strikes: Affordances for Whom, and for What Ends?
Authors: Iscen Özgün Eylül
Published: November 2024

Drawing upon the critical scholarship on drone warfare, this article argues that drones' mistargeting of civilians is neither exception nor error but is instead intrinsic to the rationale behind militarized drone strikes. A historical overview of the cultural imaginaries and biopolitical formations corresponded to drone warfare reconfigures drone technology as an apparatus of racialized state violence. Therefore, an analysis of the affordances corresponded to drone technologies cannot be thought in isolation from the historicity of the material and discursive systems that underline those strikes. Forensic Architecture's investigations of covert drone strikes address the material, media, and legal systems through which these strikes operate and thus intervene in the time-space relations that characterize the entangled politics of verticality and visuality. As a result, they invert the forensic gaze through an architectural mode of analysis and political commitment to "the right to look" in Nicholas Mirzoeff's terms. Ultimately, their investigations are direct interventions into the operationalization of drone technology as a technical, discursive, and political apparatus.

Virilio’s Parting Song: The Administration of Fear and the Privatisation of Communism through the Communism of Affect
Authors: Karatzogianni Athina , Robinson Andrew
Published: November 2024

In The Administration of Fear (2012), Virilio returns to his old 1977 theme of speed as the driving force in politics. For Virilio, modern power involves ever-accelerating speed, but in this work he takes it further by arguing there is a ‘cult of speed’, which is not progress but its ideology, whereby fear is hidden by the ideology of progress. Speed’s impact is mediated by affect, which produces social effects, such as loss of continuous action, ecological destruction, devitalisation, placelessness, fractal fragmentation, and group nationalisms or communalisms. This situation becomes particularly dangerous when the affective structures, which become viral are those – so common in turbo-capitalism – of fear, panic and hatred. As a result of telepresence, there is a ‘synchronisation of emotion’ which goes beyond the earlier standardisation of opinion. Virilio christens this regime the ‘communism of affect’ leading to new forms of politics: transition from a democracy of opinion to a democracy of emotion. In this article, we elaborate on this line of argumentation, and then discuss how Virilio may resonate and inspire analysis of contemporary political phenomena, such as affective polarisation in anti-immigrant fears driving the far right in Anglo-Saxon politics, securitisation in France, developmentalist acceleration and telepresence in India, and the dystopian extremes of the Chinese model.

“As Soon as We Are Two There is a Medium”
Authors: Crocker Stephen
Published: November 2024

Michel Serres did not identify with any discipline or method of analysis. He described his work as a general theory of relation. In this essay I show how Serres’ theory of relations questions the guiding ideological impulses of our age – desire for immediacy in the actualization of our plans, particularly in our control of nature, and noise-free transmission in our communication systems. Serres’ analyses of the mediating work of viruses, noises, and pollution takes us beyond the fields of human communication and language and challenges our most basic ontological ideas and philosophical oppositions such as subject and object, nature and culture, signal and noise.

Russian Media Theory: Is There Any? Should There Be? How About These?
Authors: Peters Benjamin
Published: November 2024

This paper makes a bibliographic case for as well as several arguments against the existence of a body of media theory named ‘Russian media theory’. Elements of the Slavic intellectual tradition are briefly surveyed in an effort to accrue eclectic resources for thinking about media in and beyond Russian. As a gesture to the spirit of Peters’ Speaking into the Air as well in borrowing and twisting the title of his less well-known co-edited volume on the field’s canon, this article pays special attention to historiographic, geopolitical, and media philosophical objections to the project of Russian media theory as well as to possible ways forward toward transnational thought on the media environment.
From Dissemination to Digitality: How to Reflect on Media
Authors: Krämer Sybille
Published: November 2024

J.D. Peters’ communication theory rehabilitates communication in the form of non-reciprocal dissemination as a complement to the dominant position of dialogue, which is usually considered the primary form of close communication. This essay, in turn, now complements Peters’ communication theory with the cultural-historical phenomenon that we use the stable surfaces of materials to write and to illustrate, starting with cave paintings and skin tattoos and to the invention of writings, diagrams and maps. The ‘cultural technique of flattening’ is conceived as a projection of spatial and non-spatial facts onto two-dimensionality. ‘Artificial’ flatness—there is no empirical flatness—forms a productive potential and power that is essential for the development of sciences, many arts, technology and architecture, and complex administrative technology is unthinkable. What this means is (i) examined in a media theoretical context and (ii) explored in connection to digital technology, which establishes a link to Peters’ reflections on ‘clouds’.
JDP Network 1999/2009/2019: A Living History of John Durham Peters’ Historiography
Authors: Packer Jeremy
Published: November 2024

This article provides an archaeology of John Durham Peters’ historiographic methods and strategies by comparing three distinct approaches that the author names JDP1999, JDP2009, and JDP2019. For each of these three JDPs, one key theoretical figure functions as a historiographical guide. Walter Benjamin leads the way for JDP1999. Friedrich Kittler guides JDP 2009. Harold Innis hovers, Google Earth-like, above JDP 2019. The dominant forms of historical evidence are also fundamentally different. JDP 1999 delves into the hidden philosophies and theologies of communication buried in canonical Western texts. JDP 2009 opens up the diagrams, patents, and formulas of scientists and engineers used in the creation of media. JDP 2019 examines the ‘natural world’ as the inscription of being that encodes and decodes itself into existence. A further distinction to be made between JDP 2009 and JDP 2019 regards tools and knowledge of the natural world, both of which figure prominently in the histories discussed. The natural world preexists tools and humans. Its history is deeply inhuman, whereas the history of ideas and of tools is clearly not.
Writing onto the Clouds: John Durham Peters and Inscription Media
Authors: Pooley Jefferson
Published: November 2024

This short essay suggests that John Durham Peters’ Speaking into the Air (1999) re-capitulates its arguments through form. In its written medium, with its hermeneutic mode, and by its promiscuous prose, the book exemplifies its own moral case for dissemination over (in Peters’ chilling phrase) ‘interpersonal mimesis’. The essay positions the book’s first chapter, on Jesus and Socrates, as an unannounced nesting, in which Peters uses the parable mode to endorse a parable about the virtue of parables. Another facet of the book’s formal re-enactment of its argument surfaces in Peters’ method of discrete and serialized exegesis of old texts. Speaking into the Air is, in its way, a celebration of temporary breakdown, of the otherness of the other, of slippage and ellipses. Thus, it is fitting that the bulk of the book’s page-time is given over to dialogue at a distance, suspended dialogue, dialogue with the dead. There is, finally, the book’s polymathic weirdness—aphoristic, punning, etymological exuberance. Peters, on most pages, is overtopping the levees of meaning—a nod, I argue, to the book’s skepticism about the dream of easy lucidity.
Dis-automation
Authors: Crogan Patrick
Published: November 2024

This essay considers the nature and stakes of creative making with computational automation technologies. I will argue that Bernard Stiegler’s organological approach to the human as “technical life” takes care of the question of the nature of creative making, and the pharmacological critical practice that it mandates takes care of the question of the stakes. I say “takes care” to emphasise that Stiegler’s theoretical enterprise is dedicated to a “therapeutics” of contemporary technocultural transformation, because culture is best understood as a taking care of the technical pharmakon – both poison and cure – that is our irreducible technical supplementarity. After providing an assessment of Stiegler’s thinking on organology and pharmacological critique, I will discuss the work of some creative makers I have worked with or was able to interview as part of the South West Creative Technologies Network’s Automation Fellowship programme in 2019-2020. The goal is to interpret their work pharmacologically and so to elaborate and extend Stiegler’s work on contemporary technocultural becoming. Digital automation and AI are powerful drivers of the so-called Silicon Valley era of disruptive “creative destruction”. This means that the stakes of creative making and its possibilities for taking care of the future cannot be higher today.
This is Not a Critique
Authors: Finlayson Alan
Published: November 2024

On digital platforms a distinct form of reactionary politics has gathered, intensifying and focusing its political arguments. Composed of diverse strands of political ideology it is unified by opposition to any and all forms of politics concerned with claims for equality. Key avatars of this politics are ‘ideological entrepreneurs’, individuals untethered from modern political institutions and engaged in the business of manufacturing criticism not only of this or that form of politics but of modern politics as such. While highly politically consequential these political forms are peculiar insofar as their goal is not primarily political consciousness raising and organising but the growth of an audience and the intensification of its parasocial attachment. Because they are not seeking to attain political legitimacy or win office, standard forms of counter-critique, which measure the distance of reactionary political claims from what is imagined to be universal and legitimate, are misdirected. In addition to such normative critique those who would defend politics must learn how to do it better, in ways which understand the digital political conjuncture and the opportunities it contains. The force and meaning of political critique is found only in its effects.
 Surgical Strategies and Prognostic Factors in Invasive Bladder Cancer: A Systematic Review
Authors: T. Nirza Vardoeli  , Neza Aulina
Published: November 2024

Background: Invasive bladder cancer presents a substantial health challenge due to its aggressive nature and high incidence. Surgical management, primarily through open radical cystectomy (ORC), laparoscopic radical cystectomy (LRC), and robotic-assisted radical cystectomy (RARC), is essential in treating this malignancy. Understanding the comparative outcomes of these surgical approaches and identifying prognostic factors is crucial to optimize patient care. Methods: This systematic review synthesized data from studies meeting specific inclusion criteria focused on the outcomes of ORC, LRC, and RARC for invasive bladder cancer. Major databases, including Emerald, Science Direct, and Sagepub, were searched to collate relevant studies. Key aspects analyzed included perioperative outcomes, oncological results, and the influence of prognostic factors such as lymph node dissection and surgical margin status. Results: The review revealed that minimally invasive techniques, namely LRC and RARC, demonstrate comparable oncologic outcomes to ORC, with distinct advantages in perioperative recovery, including reduced blood loss and shorter hospital stays. Prognostic factors like extensive lymph node dissection and achieving negative surgical margins were associated with improved survival and recurrence rates. Conclusion: The findings support that the choice of surgical approach should be tailored based on patient-specific factors and institutional expertise to enhance outcomes. High-quality, individualized surgical care is paramount, emphasizing the role of centralizing bladder cancer surgeries to high-volume centers and establishing referral networks for optimal patient management.

Social media (SM) are part of our daily lives. Whether we like it or not, social media has become an integral part of our society. Based on Statista estimates, there were 4.5 billion people using social media in 2022 [1], with this figure projected to rise to nearly 6 billion by 2027. A significant number of users, including gastroenterologists (GE), are on SM every day. But how much time do they spend surfing and what impact does this have on gastroenterology training?

The aim of our study is to assess the extent to which gastroenterologists are currently using social medias and its impact on their learning and training.

A adolescência é um período de intensas transformações físicas, emocionais e sociais, marcado pela busca de identidade e aceitação. A acne vulgar, uma condição dermatológica altamente prevalente nessa faixa etária, pode ter impactos significativos na autoimagem e no bem-estar emocional dos jovens. Além das implicações físicas, a acne está associada a repercussões psicológicas como ansiedade, depressão e isolamento social, especialmente em um ambiente onde a pressão estética é amplificada pelas redes sociais.O presente estudo busca contribuir para a compreensão do impacto da acne no desenvolvimento socioemocional dos adolescentes. Por meio de uma revisão narrativa qualitativa com foco em estudos publicados entre 2020 e 2024, as buscas foram conduzidas nas bases SciELO, Google Scholar e PubMed, em que foram incluídos artigos em português que analisavam os impactos da acne no desenvolvimento psicológico e emocional dos adolescentes, enquanto estudos metodologicamente inadequados ou incompletos foram excluídos. Os estudos mostram que a acne afeta a autoestima dos adolescentes e pode levar a repercussões como isolamento social, ansiedade e depressão. A pressão das redes sociais e os padrões estéticos irreais amplificam esses efeitos, intensificando a percepção negativa da autoimagem. Diante disso, os impactos da acne vão além das alterações físicas, afetando profundamente a saúde mental e o desenvolvimento social dos adolescentes. A adoção de abordagens multidisciplinares que combinem tratamento dermatológico com suporte psicológico é fundamental para mitigar os efeitos negativos e melhorar o bem-estar geral dos jovens.

Published: November 2024

El estudio tuvo como objetivo identificar y caracterizar las representaciones sociales acerca de la cuarentena y del coronavirus en los niños de nivel socioeconómico bajo de San Miguel de Tucumán, Argentina. Participaron 33 niños de 4 y 5 años de ambos sexos (54,5% mujeres y 45,5% varones) y 35 cuidadores principales, pertenecientes a un jardín de infantes de una escuela pública de San Miguel de Tucumán. Para la recolección de los datos se administró la Técnica interactiva de índole descriptiva y el Test de evocación jerarquizada y una encuesta sociodemográfica.
Los hallazgos dan cuenta que, a pesar de su corta edad, los participantes de este estudio conocían el motivo del aislamiento social y preventivo ocurrido durante la pandemia. Como así también, se observó que ellos experimentaron la cuarentena como una restricción. A su vez, permitieron identificar que, los niños y niñas de 4 y 5 años, manejaron información sobre los motivos de la cuarentena y de la pandemia. Esto, sin duda, es un aspecto a favor para el procesamiento del impacto emocional que implicó la situación de emergencia vivenciada, ya que contar con información concreta y veraz contribuye a procesar las emociones que estas generan. A su vez, implicó ubicar a niños y niñas como sujetos con derecho a la información y a ser partícipes de las situaciones que afectaron su vida.
Los datos y la relevancia de estandarizar la práctica clínica, ¿una verdad de perogrullo?
Authors: Torres Rodrigo M.
Published: November 2024

El Diccionario de la Real Academia Española define a la palabra perogrullada como la expresión de una “verdad o certeza que, por notoriamente sabida, es necedad o simpleza el decirla”. Decir que la práctica clínica debe ser estandarizada para muchos podrá ser una perogrullada, pero veremos a continuación que la práctica diaria no siempre es así....
