Authors: Sonaglioni A. , Caminati A. , Grasso E. , Colleoni M. , Nicolosi G.L. , Lombardo M. , Harari S.
Published: April 2024

BACKGROUND
Due to paucity of literature data, we aimed at evaluating the prognostic role of the ratio of tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion (TAPSE) to systolic pulmonary artery pressure (SPAP) in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis
(IPF) patients without severe pulmonary hypertension and at assessing its correlation with effective arterial elastance index (EaI).

METHODS
Multi-instrumental data obtained in 60 IPF patients (73.2 ± 6.8 years) and 60
matched controls were retrospectively analysed. Primary endpoint was all-cause mortality, while secondary endpoint was the composite of all-cause mortality and re-hospitalisations for all-causes over medium-term follow-up.

RESULTS
At
baseline, TAPSE/SPAP was significantly lower in patients with IPF than in controls (0.36 ± 0.25 vs. 0.77 ± 0.18 mm/mmHg; P < 0.001). TAPSE/SPAP was inversely correlated with EaI (r = –0.96) in IPF patients. During follow-up (3.5 ± 1.5 years), 21
patients died and 25 were re-hospitalised due to cardiopulmonary causes. TAPSE/SPAP was independently associated with both primary (HR 0.79, 95%CI 0.65–0.97) and secondary (HR 0.94, 95%CI 0.92–0.97) endpoints. A TAPSE/SPAP ratio of <0.20 and <0.44 mm/mmHg showed the greatest
sensitivity and specificity for predicting primary (AUC 0.98) and secondary (AUC 0.99) endpoints, respectively.

CONCLUSIONS
TAPSE/SPAP is a strong predictor of adverse outcomes in mild-to-moderate IPF. The strong correlation
between TAPSE/SPAP and EaI might be an expression of a systemic fibrotic process which involves the heart, lungs and circulation.

Authors: Santana Bárbara Reis de , Batista Jefferson Felipe Calazans , Lima Sonia Oliveira
Published: April 2024

Objetivo: Analisar a tendência da taxa de mortalidade por Hérnia Inguinal (HI) no Brasil, no período de 20 anos. Métodos: estudo ecológico e descritivo sobre a Mortalidade por HI no Brasil, entre 2002-2021 pelas variáveis região/unidade de federação, raça/cor, sexo, faixa etária e escolaridade. Foram utilizados dados secundários de acesso público do Sistema de Informações sobre Mortalidade do Ministério da Saúde, acessados através do DATASUS via Tabnet. Calculou-se taxas de mortalidade pela população estimada no Censo do IBGE para cada ano analisado. Pela inexistência de estimativas populacionais para as variáveis raça/cor e escolaridade, calculou-se as proporções de óbito. Estimou-se a tendência temporal pelo modelo de Regressão de Paris-Winsten, cuja Variação Percentual Anual foi considerada de redução quando resultados negativos, de crescimento quando positivos e de tendência estacionária quando não há significância estatística (p>0,05). Resultados: No Brasil foram registradas 11.813 mortes por HI de 2002-2021. A Taxa de Mortalidade Média (TMM) brasileira foi de 0,30 mortes/100 mil. As regiões Nordeste e Norte apresentaram a maior e menor TMM nacional, respectivamente, 0,33/100 mil e 0,26/100 mil. Houve crescimento de 5,5% ao ano nos óbitos por HI no país com 24 estados apresentando tendência crescente, 3 tendência estacionária e nenhum apresentou redução. A maioria das faixas etárias apresentaram tendência de crescimento, especialmente entre 30-39 anos. Ambos os sexos apresentaram VPA positiva, sendo maior no sexo masculino. Houve redução dos dados ignorados em relação às variáveis escolaridade e raça/cor. Conclusão: Houve crescimento da mortalidade por HI em todas as macrorregiões do Brasil, em ambos os sexos, naqueles com mais de 4 anos de estudo e acima de 30 anos de idade e entre 15-19 anos. Nenhum grupo etário apresentou diminuição da mortalidade, apesar de tratar-se de doença benigna, de fácil diagnóstico e de tratamento curativo.

Este trabalho tem como objetivo principal de realizar um estudo sobre análise do problema da morosidade do Judiciário sob o enfoque da eficiência, eficácia e efetividade, nos processos de improbidade administrativa. O tema em epígrafe é de suma relevância não somente ao que tange as questões processuais, mas também no que se refere o combate a corrupção e na concretização do princípio constitucional da moralidade administrativa presente na Constituição Federal de 1988. Sabe-se que o Poder Judiciário é responsável pela resolução dos feitos e processos, em que se verifica que há um grave discordo entre a escala numérica dos ajuizamentos e a resposta legal a eles conferida. Sendo assim, há diariamente novos processos avançam, acarretando ao Judiciário a impossibilidade de solucionar, com rapidez, os crescentes litígios. A partir dos resultados foi possível constatar que apesar de que existirem alguns dispositivos que podem dar celeridade ao julgamento do processo, é possível concluir que de forma geral o poder judiciário ainda tem agido com morosidade, e isso se dá principalmente, pela grande demanda de processos judiciais além do número reduzido de funcionários, onde o Estado deve procurar algumas alternativas para conferir celeridade aos processos judiciais.

Published: April 2024

A pesquisa experimental a cerca dos telhados verdes e sistemas fotovoltaicos já apresentaram inúmeros benefícios quando analisados em separado.  A análise de estudos que integram estas duas técnicas sustentáveis tem se tornado cada vez mais presente no âmbito acadêmico, reforçando que a busca por alternativas que reduzam os impactos, efeitos, e que compense o meio ambiente, estão dentre as preocupações da sociedade que habitam os centros urbanos. Neste cenário, a técnica construtiva que utiliza o telhado verde como uma solução eficiente para minimizar os impactos impostos pela impermeabilização das grandes cidades vem de encontro com a utilização da geração fotovoltaica, pois é um modo de se obter energia limpa, utilizando diretamente a irradiação solar. E a integração destas duas técnicas sustentáveis pode contribuir para a expansão de ambas as aplicações em grandes centros urbanos, pois a cidade é um espaço que apresenta grandes desafios para promover o bem-estar de quem a ocupa. Sendo assim, a produção de energias limpas aliada ao aumento de áreas verdes na cidade é uma alternativa viável para mitigar os efeitos negativos que a urbanização acelerada pode causar.

Published: April 2024

O objetivo deste trabalho é entender a mudança do uso da Terra em áreas de assentamentos rurais no município de Pacajá, a partir da análise dos fatores que influenciaram o processo de formação do espaço agrário. Para isso, o trabalho questiona as políticas públicas utilizadas tanto para o estabelecimento das famílias nas áreas de assentamento, quanto aquelas que deveriam ser direcionadas para a garantia de uma vida digna das famílias naqueles locais. Baseiam esta análise, dados secundários de mudança da cobertura vegetal, bem como informações coletadas em campo a partir de entrevistas com agricultores familiares assentados. O estudo mostra que a política pública de assentamentos rurais na Amazônia, na prática, se afasta bastante dos objetivos para os quais foi originalmente planejada. Fatores como a falta de acesso a serviços básicos, ao crédito, à assistência técnica e às tecnologias adequadas contribuíram para a produção de um espaço agrário desorganizado nos assentamentos rurais de Pacajá.

Authors: Silva Marcos Vinícius Albuquerque da , Carvalho João Luiz Azevedo de
Published: April 2024

A variabilidade da frequência cardíaca (VFC) é uma importante técnica não invasiva que mostra a relação entre as influências simpática e parassimpática no ritmo cardíaco. A presença de arritmias ou erros de detecção de batimentos cardíacos afeta a análise do sinal de VFC. Portanto, a identificação e correção de intervalos anômalos são de fundamental importância. Os principais erros que podem afetar a análise do sinal de VFC são os batimentos ectópicos, os falsos positivos e os falsos negativos. O objetivo deste trabalho é o desenvolvimento de um algoritmo que identifique, classifique e corrija cada um desses tipos de anomalias. Os métodos propostos foram avaliados usando sinais obtidos de um banco de dados, nos quais foram artificialmente inseridos intervalos anômalos, de forma a permitir a quantificação do desempenho dos mesmos. Os resultados obtidos validam o método proposto, o qual tem grande facilidade de implementação, se comparado a outros métodos existentes na literatura.

O fósforo, considerado um elemento crucial para o crescimento das culturas agrícolas, tem um impacto significativo no crescimento e do desenvolvimento das plantas. Devido a uma série de variáveis, incluindo a adsorção, que o torna indisponível para as plantas, apenas 20% da quantidade total de P fornecida ao solo é absorvida pelas plantas. Há uma variedade de microrganismos na biomassa microbiana do solo que podem solubilizar o fósforo inacessível, aumentando a quantidade de fósforo disponível para as plantas. Este trabalho tem como objetivo contribuir para o conhecimento sobre microrganismos solubilizadores de fósforo (PSMs) na agricultura, com ênfase para bactérias, por meio de uma revisão sistemática de literatura, que possa ser utilizada como fonte de informação abrangente para pesquisadores da área. Para resolver o problema da deficiência de fósforo em solos agrícolas, altas doses de fertilizantes fosfatados são administradas ao solo em culturas agrícolas. Os microrganismos solubilizadores de fosfato podem ser aplicados ao solo como um método prático com poucos impactos negativos sobre a sociedade e o meio ambiente. A disponibilidade de fósforo no solo em formas solúveis pode ser aumentada por bactérias solubilizadoras de fósforo, o que também pode aumentar a eficácia do fertilizante fosfatado que foi aplicado. Essas opções são possíveis porque essas bactérias têm uma variedade de métodos de solubilização, incluindo a síntese de ácidos orgânicos, fosfatases, sideróforos e troca catiônica. A aplicação de bactérias solubilizadoras de fósforo como bioinsumos no solo resulta em melhor crescimento, rendimento e qualidade das plantas.
