Published: December 2024

Abstract This study aimed to analyze the adaptation of prenatal care offered to Indigenous women and its association with maternal characteristics and health services. This is a cross-sectional study, conducted with 461 Indigenous women who gave birth and/or received immediate postpartum care in the municipalities of Mato Grosso do Sul, between 2021 and 2022. An indicator of minimum prenatal adequacy was developed, which was classified as adequate when the woman started prenatal care in the 1st trimester of pregnancy, had ≥7 consultations, and had routine exams recorded. Logistic regression models were used to estimate the adjusted odds ratios and factors associated with prenatal adequacy. It was found that 67.2% began prenatal care in the 1st trimester, 51.8% had ≥7 consultations, and 40.6% had exam results recorded. About 1 in 4 Indigenous women achieved the proposed adequacy; the associated maternal characteristics were ethnicity, region of residence, and place of residence. Prenatal care revealed health inequities, with low adequacy rates in prenatal care and worse rates among women living in villages and settlements in the southern region of the state.

Resumen Este estudio tuvo como objetivo analizar la adecuación de la atención prenatal ofrecida a las mujeres indígenas y su asociación con las características de los servicios de salud. Se trata de un estudio transversal, con cobertura estatal, realizado con 461 mujeres indígenas que dieron a luz y/o recibieron atención posparto inmediata en municipios de Mato Grosso do Sul entre 2021 y 2022. Se desarrolló un indicador de adecuación mínima de la atención prenatal, clasificándose como adecuada cuando la mujer inició el control prenatal en el primer trimestre del embarazo, tuvo ≥7 consultas y contó con registros de exámenes de rutina. La información relativa a la prescripción de medicamentos durante el embarazo fue excluida de este indicador por mala cumplimentación. Se utilizaron modelos de regresión logística para estimar los odds ratios ajustados y los factores asociados con la adecuación de la atención prenatal. Se encontró que el 67,2% inició el control prenatal en el primer trimestre, el 51,8% tuvo ≥7 consultas y el 40,6% contaba con registro de resultados de exámenes. Alrededor de una de cada cuatro mujeres indígenas lograron alcanzar la adecuación propuesta. Las características maternas asociadas fueron etnia, región de residencia y domicilio. La atención prenatal reveló inequidades en salud, con bajas tasas de adecuación de la atención prenatal y peores tasas entre las mujeres que vivían en aldeas y campamentos en la región sur del estado.

Resumo O estudo teve como objetivo identificar estratégias de proteção usadas por povos indígenas durante a pandemia da COVID-19. Analisando 56 artigos de 2020 a maio de 2021 em quatro áreas - organização comunitária, governança, comunicação e abordagens territoriais - descobriu-se que vulnerabilidades estruturais moldaram suas respostas. A disseminação do vírus foi influenciada por fatores ambientais, sociais e culturais. Grupos indígenas empregaram estratégias diversas, como tomada de decisão coletiva e conhecimento tradicional. Os desafios incluíram supressão de dados e barreiras à identificação étnica. O estudo enfatiza a necessidade de maior autonomia indígena no gerenciamento de dados e coordenação eficaz entre governo, sociedade civil e organizações indígenas.

Abstract This case study analyzed arrangements and strategies of the network actors in the Special Indigenous Sanitary District (DSEI) Pernambuco’s territory to guarantee the right to health of Indigenous populations during the COVID-19 pandemic. This work was carried out through document analysis, workshops, and field research. The Contingency Plan for COVID-19 in Indigenous Peoples of DSEI Pernambuco included surveillance actions, laboratory and pharmaceutical assistance, communication, and management. With the modeling of this document, it was noticed that actions aimed at local specificities were not integrated: in its initial design, at the national level, the voice of Indigenous leaders was not heard when formulating this plan. By contrast, the actions of these leaders and their mobilization to mitigate the effects of the pandemic on the Indigenous population stands out. Contextual factors were cited as facilitators and obstacles to the plan’s implementation; the local sociotechnical network mapping also made it possible to identify strategic actors and actants in the face of the COVID-19 pandemic and verify their performance or ineffectiveness. The findings of this study reflect recurrent problems in the organization of the Indigenous health system.

Resumen Este estudio de caso buscó analizar los dispositivos y estrategias de la red de actores en el territorio del Distrito Sanitario Especial Indígena (DSEI) de Pernambuco para garantizar el derecho a la salud de los indígenas durante la pandemia de la COVID-19. La investigación se llevó a cabo mediante análisis documental, un taller e investigación de campo. El Plan de Contingencia para COVID-19 en Pueblos Indígenas del DSEI Pernambuco incluía acciones de vigilancia, asistencia laboratorial y farmacéutica, comunicación y gestión. Con la modelización de este documento, se observó que no se integraron acciones dirigidas a las especificidades locales: en su diseño inicial, desde el nivel nacional, no se escuchó a los líderes indígenas para la adecuación de este plan. Por otro lado, se destacan las acciones de estos líderes y su movilización para mitigar los efectos de la pandemia en la población. Los factores contextuales fueron citados como facilitadores y obstaculizadores de la implementación del plan; y el mapeo de la red sociotécnica local permitió identificar actores y actantes estratégicos en el enfrentamiento a la pandemia de la COVID-19 y verificar su acción o inacción. Los hallazgos de este estudio reflejan problemas recurrentes en la organización del sistema de salud indígena.

Resumo Estimar os níveis tensionais médios e as prevalências de hipertensão arterial (HA) e fatores associados é fundamental para o monitoramento da saúde e o planejamento de ações para o enfrentamento das doenças e agravos não transmissíveis em povos indígenas no Brasil. Estudo transversal que investigou níveis tensionais médios e prevalência de hipertensão arterial em 4.680 mulheres indígenas (18-49 anos) usando dados do I Inquérito Nacional de Saúde e Nutrição dos Povos Indígenas (2008-2009) e fatores associados, por meio de regressão gama e logística multinível. A prevalência de hipertensão foi 10,7%, variando nas macrorregiões: Norte, Nordeste, Centro-Oeste e Sul/Sudeste. Mulheres que residiam em aldeias sem coleta doméstica de lixo e em domicílios desprovidos de renda estável apresentaram maiores chances de terem HA. O aumento do IMC e da idade associou-se positivamente às chances de desenvolver hipertensão arterial. No modelo para a pressão arterial diastólica, ao contrário da escolaridade, as variáveis renda estável domiciliar, IMC e idade associaram-se positivamente. No modelo para a pressão arterial sistólica, houve associação negativa com a escolaridade, nos estratos médio e alto do índice de bens domésticos e em domicílios sem renda estável, e associação positiva com indicador de habitação, IMC e idade.

Published: December 2024

Abstract Estimating average blood pressure levels and prevalence of arterial hypertension (AH) and associated factors is essential to monitoring health and planning actions to combat noncommunicable diseases (NCDs) in Indigenous peoples in Brazil. This is a cross-sectional study that investigated average blood pressure levels and prevalence of arterial hypertension in 4,680 Indigenous women (aged 18-49 years), using data from the 1st National Survey of Health and Nutrition of Indigenous Peoples (2008-2009) and associated factors, such as through gamma regression and multilevel logistics. The prevalence of hypertension was 10.7%, varying across macro-regions: North, Northeast, Midwest, and South/Southeast. Women who lived in villages without domestic waste collection and in households without stable income were more likely to have AH. Increasing BMI and age were positively associated with the chances of developing high blood pressure. In the model for DBP, unlike education, the variables stable household income, BMI, and age were positively associated. In the model for SBP, there was a negative association with education, in the medium and high strata of the household goods index and in households with no stable income, and a positive association with the housing indicator, BMI and age.

Published: December 2024

Resumo O objetivo do estudo é analisar as notificações de violência por parceiro íntimo (VPI) contra as mulheres indígenas da macrorregião de Dourados-MS, entre os anos de 2009 a 2020. Trata-se de um estudo transversal com dados secundários das notificações registradas no Sistema de Informação de Agravos de Notificação (SINAN) de mulheres indígenas que sofreram violência. Foi realizada a estatística descritiva das variáveis e a regressão de Poisson para determinar a razão de prevalência (RP). A VPI representou 56,6% das notificações. Os tipos de violência mais notificados foram violência física (93,3%) e violência psicológica (27%). Na análise ajustada, a VPI esteve associada às mulheres com companheiros (RP 1,32, IC95% 1,19; 1,46), às mulheres em situação de violência de repetição (RP 1,15, IC95% 1,05; 1,25) e ao domicílio como local de ocorrência (RP 1,13, IC95% 1,01; 1,29). A maioria das notificações de violência contra as mulheres indígenas registradas na macrorregião de saúde de Dourados foi perpetrada por parceiro íntimo. O conhecimento do perfil das violências que chegam nos serviços de saúde aliado aos fatores associados, deverão possibilitar a implementação de estratégias voltadas para a redução do número de casos.

Published: December 2024

Resumen Considerada un importante problema de salud pública entre los pueblos indígenas de Brasil, la obesidad es un factor de riesgo para enfermedades no transmisibles. El objetivo de este estudio fue describir la ocurrencia de exceso de peso y obesidad y los factores asociados en adultos indígenas Xavante, por medio de una encuesta nutricional realizada entre la población ≥ 15 años de edad residente en las Tierras Indígenas Pimentel Barbosa y Wedezé, Mato Grosso, Brasil Central, entre junio y agosto de 2011. Se investigaron 8 de las 10 aldeas del territorio. Se recoletctaron datos antropométricos, de bioimpedancia y socioeconómicos. Un total de 495 individuos participaron en el estudio, lo que corresponde al 94,1% de la población objetivo. La prevalencia de exceso de peso y obesidad fue del 65,9% (hombres: 63,2%; mujeres: 68,6%) y del 19,8% (hombres: 21,3%; mujeres: 18,2%), respectivamente. En el modelo de regresión múltiple, la prevalencia del exceso de peso era mayor en las mujeres, en los grupos de mayor edad y mayor nivel de escolarización, en los individuos que vivían en el 2º grupo de aldeas y en los hogares con bajo consumo de alimentos de granja. La mayor prevalencia de obesidad se observó en el grupo de edad de 20 a 49 años y en los individuos que vivían en hogares con bajo consumo de alimentos procedentes de la caza, la pesca y la recolección.
Perfis sociodemográficos de domicílios indígenas nos censos 1991, 2000 e 2010

Published: December 2024

Resumo O artigo analisa a composição sociodemográfica dos indígenas nos censos demográficos de 1991, 2000 e 2010, além de investigar desigualdades no acesso a saneamento básico e energia elétrica com base no Censo de 2010. É proposta uma metodologia que classifica domicílios com indígenas em homogêneos, mistos com responsável indígena e mistos com responsável não indígena. Verificou-se desigualdade significativa no acesso a infraestruturas e serviços, com piores condições em domicílios homogêneos e com responsável indígena. As diferenças regionais e por situação se sobrepuseram às diferenças por tipo de domicílio e localização, com melhores condições em áreas urbanas do que em rurais, e nas regiões Sudeste e Sul, sendo o Norte a região com menor acesso em geral. Diferenças regionais e entre áreas urbana/rural foram observadas, destacando-se melhores condições urbanas e nas regiões Sudeste e Sul. Essas desigualdades refletem políticas públicas fragmentadas, pressões econômicas e processos de desterritorialização, entre outros fatores. O desenvolvimento de novas técnicas e o debate crítico são essenciais para compreender e abordar as desigualdades raciais no país e promover políticas públicas adequadas aos povos indígenas.
Salud mental en la comunidad Tupinambá de Serra do Padeiro, sur de Bahía, Brasil: comunidad y lucha como fuentes de salud

Published: December 2024

Resumen Este trabajo presenta conceptos y prácticas relacionados con la salud mental en la comunidad indígena Tupinambá de Serra do Padeiro, en el sur de Bahía. Esta investigación cualitativa utiliza el método cartográfico para mapear los procesos y relaciones existentes en el territorio Tupinambá. La observación participante, las entrevistas semiestructuradas, los diarios de campo y los estudios bibliográficos fueron las técnicas utilizadas para producir los datos. La responsabilidad compartida caracteriza la forma en que se organiza el cuidado de la medicina indígena en el territorio. Los factores que producen sufrimiento psicosocial, las prácticas de atención y el enfrentamiento de los conflictos se comprenden a partir de las interacciones entre los modos de atención indígenas y no indígenas. La inseparabilidad entre lo psíquico y lo social se combina con las dimensiones territoriales, reforzando el vínculo entre la salud mental y la vida cotidiana de la comunidad. La lucha por el territorio permite reconstruir un ethos subjetivo que rechaza la servidumbre, pasando de condiciones anteriores de precariedad y subalternización, con la expulsión del territorio, a otros procesos de subjetivación más autónomos y colectivos. El ejemplo de Serra do Padeiro demuestra que la mayor fuente de salud proviene de la lucha.

Published: December 2024

Abstract Background The hypertriglyceridemic waist (HW) phenotype is characterized by abdominal obesity and elevated blood triglycerides, indicating high cardiovascular risk in older adults. Objective To identify the prevalence and factors associated with HW in older adults. Method A cross-sectional epidemiological study was conducted with 223 older adults (mean age 71.80 ± 7.70 years) residing in Aiquara, Bahia, Brazil. HW was diagnosed by the presence of elevated waist circumference (women: ≥ 88 cm; men: ≥ 102 cm) in conjunction with hypertriglyceridemia (triglycerides ≥ 150 mg/dL). Poisson regression with robust variance was used for analysis, along with estimates of Prevalence Ratios (PR) and their respective 95% Confidence Intervals (CI). Results The prevalence of HW was 23.30%. Female sex (PR: 2.50; 95% CI: 1.35–4.63), marital status (separated or divorced) (PR: 2.30; 95% CI: 1.33-3.96), elevated non-HDL cholesterol (PR: 2.15; 95% CI: 1.37–3.49), and low HDL cholesterol (PR: 2.35; 95% CI: 1.49–3.72) presented a greater probability of HW. Additionally, low weight presented a lower probability of HW (PR: 0.17; 95% CI: 0.04–0.60). Conclusion A high prevalence of HW was identified, with positive associations with female sex, separated or divorced marital status, elevated non-HDL cholesterol, and low HDL cholesterol. Conversely, low weight showed an inverse association with HW.
La contractualisation du consentement sexuel comme solution perverse
Authors: Beaucé Olivier
Published: December 2024

Nous nous intéresserons à un traitement inédit du consentement sexuel qui en passe par la contractualisation, dont le projet est apparu dans la suite des révélations de #MeToo. Le “contrat de consentement” permettrait d’expliciter et de formaliser par écrit l’accord de chacun à la rencontre sexuelle. Présenté d’abord comme un “digital condom” pour pacifier la rencontre et garantir une bonne sexualité, il apparaît néanmoins rapidement comme une forme nouvelle d’assujettissement. Postulant un individu autonome, capable d’un consentement libre et éclairé, ledit contrat expose celui-ci à mettre son corps au service de la jouissance de l’autre. À la croisée des maximes sadienne et kantienne, ce projet semble vouloir s’inscrire dans un double héritage contractualiste (celui du pacte social) et des philosophies modernes de l’autonomie, mais présentant un envers pervers inattendu. Autant de présupposés que nous interrogerons ici. Il s’agira alors de montrer en quoi cette solution contractuelle peut constituer une solution perverse aux risques inhérents à la rencontre sexuelle, visant à garantir une satisfaction tout en masquant l’asservissement des corps sous une promesse d’harmonie et de protection contre l’abus.

Published: December 2024

Resumo Demandas da contemporaneidade, aliadas a problemas históricos enfrentados pela educação científica, têm levado pesquisadores a repensar o ensino de Ciências, em especial, a abordagem das relações ciência-sociedade. Nesse âmbito, um dos caminhos sugeridos é o ativismo sociopolítico (ASP), que possibilita aos estudantes atuarem como agentes centrais de mudanças sociais. Diante disso, a presente investigação objetiva caracterizar e compreender práticas educativas fundamentadas pelo ativismo. Para tal, conduzimos um levantamento de dissertações voltadas à temática, em contexto português, reconhecido por sua expertise na área. Para o exame do corpus, utilizamos princípios da Análise Textual Discursiva, dos quais emergiram três categorias que culminam em três níveis de ASP. De certa forma, as categorias abarcam compreensões sobre os fins da educação científica e sobre ciência, em suas relações com a tecnologia e a sociedade. Consideramos que este estudo propicia noções de como práticas e teoria se articulam, além de perspectivas para o desenvolvimento do ativismo em aulas de ciências.
Predation effect by cats and rodents on the reproductive success of seabirds: a global systematic review and meta-analysis

Published: December 2024

Abstract Seabirds belong to one are the most threatened bird groups in the world. One of the main threats and most relevant risk for local extinction of these birds is the predation by introduced mammals (cats, rats, and mice). Due to the severity of the impact of predators on seabirds, investigation of the effect of predation by cats and rodents (mice and rats) on the reproductive success of seabirds is needed to assess whether the success increases when the predator is managed and for how long. Our objective was to evaluate, through a global systematic literature review and a meta-analysis, the effectiveness of predator control on the reproductive success of seabirds, taking into account the type of predator and the control period. After the review, 85 articles published between 1974 and 2022 were selected, resulting in 14 articles (16 datasets) adequate for the meta-analysis. For comparison among studies, we used the effect size of the predator control in the meta-analysis models, accounting for their sample sizes. We detected that when predators are controlled, seabird reproductive success increases significantly (mean effect size = 1.4, range: 1.19–1.64). This control was significant for mice/rats as predators (mean = 1.61, range: 1.31–1.98, n = 14) but not for cats (mean = 0.60, range: 0.12–2.96, n = 2). Moreover, short-term predator control (<4 years; mean = 1.52; range: 1.25–1.84, n = 11) was more effective than long-term control (≥ 4 years; mean = 1.15, range: 0.52–2.54, n = 5). Thus, the need of these long-term studies must be evaluated on a case-by-case basis, also considering their increased costs. We also highlight the need for further studies with quantitative data on the percentage of nests with reproductive success, both in the absence and in the presence of the predator control.

Abstract The main purpose of this study was to update the list of tree species monitored in an undisturbed forest at the Santa Lúcia Biological Station (SLBS), in the highlands of Espírito Santo, southeastern Brazil. At this site, trees and palms with a DBH ≥ 6.4 cm have been monitored by surveying permanent plots totaling 1.02 ha. Surveys were carried out in 1992–1993 (S1), 2003–2004 (S2), and 2017–2018 (S3), recording high levels of species richness and diversity. We also aimed to identify the threatened species among those monitored, present more accurate values for diversity measures, and compare species diversity across the different surveys. The study was supported by the speciesLink, Jabot, and Flora e Funga do Brasil databases and involved searching for updates on species determinations of 1,233 vouchers from 17 herbaria; updating synonyms and circumscriptions of families and genera; reviewing determinations by examining vouchers in person or through high-resolution images; and adjusting voucher arrangements into morphospecies. We compiled the threat categories of species from the list of threatened species in the state of Espírito Santo, the CNCFlora red list, and the IUCN red list. Richness (number of species), the Shannon diversity index (Hʹ), and Pielou’s evenness (J) for each survey were calculated from a species-based abundance matrix. The updated list includes 386 species, 168 genera, and 69 families. Myrtaceae (75), Lauraceae (46), Fabaceae (31), Sapotaceae (25), and Melastomataceae (22) were the richest families. Despite progress in resolving determination issues, 44 morphospecies remained unidentified, 24 of which lack fertile vouchers available for taxonomic evaluation. Richness, diversity, and evenness in each survey were as follows: 365 species, Hʹ = 5.23, and J = 0.89 in S1; 363 species, Hʹ = 5.18, and J = 0.88 in S2; and 358 species, Hʹ = 5.18, and J = 0.88 in S3. Diversity remained high over time, with variation among surveys not being significant. We identified that 88 species (about 23% of the total) were assigned to a threat category in at least one of the consulted lists of threatened species. Surprisingly, 34 new species have been described from vouchers collected at SLBS plots, most of which have been recognized as endemic to the highlands of Espírito Santo. Data highlight SLBS as a refuge for endemic and threatened species in a region officially recognized as of very high priority for conservation.

Published: December 2024

Abstract Ulnar artery aneurysms are extremely rare and are mainly associated with hypothenar hammer syndrome, an ischemic disorder of the hand resulting from mechanical and repetitive trauma to the hypothenar region. The ulnar artery is hit against the hook of the hamate bone, causing damage to the vessel wall and leading to occlusion or formation of an aneurysm. We describe the case of a truck driver who underwent resection of an ulnar artery aneurysm in the right hand and reconstruction using end-to-end anastomosis with no complications or recurrence.

ABSTRACT Objective To assess the association between the pattern of dietary intake and visceral fat deposits. Methods This is an observational study with pregnant women during a prenatal appointment in Porto Alegre, Brazil. The gestational dietary intake was assessed using a usual food recall, questioning every food consumed on a usual weekday, and their respective amounts. Fat deposits were measured by ultrasonography. The correlation between symmetric variables was assessed using Pearson's correlation and the correlation between asymmetric variables was assessed using Spearman's correlation. The association between variables was assessed using multivariate linear regression, in which variables with asymmetric distribution were transformed into logarithms. Results A total of 154 pregnant women were included in the sample; the mean visceral fat thickness was 44.17 mm±15.03 and the median daily total energy intake was 2,149.25 kcal [1,676.53-3,051.72]. A significant positive correlation (r=0.165) was found between visceral fat thickness and the consumption of processed culinary ingredients (p=0.049). Conclusion Our findings suggest that the consumption of processed culinary ingredients may be positively associated with visceral fat deposits in pregnant women.

Methods A total of 150 patients in pediatric intensive care unit, 6 months to 17 years (mean age: 4.94±4.84, M/F:1.14), that were hospitalized for at least 7 days have been enrolled in this study. Weight, height, mid-upper arm circumference, and triceps skin fold thickness were measured. The anthropometric measurements were recorded. The Nutrition type (enteral, parenteral or both) during hospitalization, PRISM III mortality risk score, and Subjective Global Nutritional Assessment was a determinent part of the study. Results At hospitalization 18.7% of the patients were moderately malnourished, 32% were severely malnourished and 49.3% were normal. According to PRISM III score 41.3% of the patients were classified as normal, 29.3% as moderate and 29.3% as severe. A strong positive correlation was found between Subjective Global Nutritional Assessment and all of the anthropometric measurements. A significant statistically difference has been observed between malnutrition status at hospitalization concerning weight for age, height for age, weight for height and body mass index (p<0.01). It was also analysed a very relevant statistically connection between malnutrition classification and lenght of hospital stay (p<0.05). The result rate considerably higher in patients with severe malnutrition (p<0.05). Conclusion A strong correlation was found between Subjective Global Nutritional Assessment and anthropometric measurements. Also significant correlation was found between malnutrition score at admission and prognosis in this study.

ABSTRACT Objective: We aimed to evaluate the association of neck circumference and body mass index with sexual maturation in nine-year-old children. Methods: This is a cross-sectional study nested in a Brazilian cohort study named the Predictors of Maternal and Infant Excess Body Weight Study. The present study used data from adult women and their children obtained at baseline and after 2 and 9 years of follow-up. The child’s sexual maturation was assessed according to Tanner stage. Logistic regression models adjusting for important covariates were used to examine the association of neck circumference with Tanner stages. Results: The prevalence in stages 2-5 for breast development in girls and for genitalia in boys was 69.1% and 51.3%, respectively. There was a higher (p<0.05) percentage of girls (35.3%) at stages 2-5 for pubic hair development when compared to boys (9.2%). For each unit increase in body mass index and neck circumference, the odds of girls being 2-5 stages for breast development were 1.52 (95% CI 1.17-1.97) and 2.67 (95% CI 1.40-5.09) times, respectively. In other words, the odds of girls being 2-5 stages for breast development were about 1.8 times higher when neck circumference was considered as a predictor, in relation to the body mass index measure (OR=2.67 vs. OR=1.52, respectively). Conclusion: Our results revealed that neck circumference, as well as body mass index, is associated with sexual maturation, especially in girls. This is an important result from a public health perspective because, in addition to body mass index, neck circumference may also be used for monitoring sexual maturation in children.

ABSTRACT Objective The outbreak of the coronavirus disease has led to significant social changes, affecting people's emotions, physical exercise habits, and eating behaviors. Considering the pandemic's impact on daily routines, this study has examined the dietary patterns, eating attitudes, physical exercise practices, and emotional experiences of adult women with a body mass index of 25 kg/m² or higher during the COVID-19 pandemic. Methods Participated in the study 786 women with a body mass index of 25 kg/m² or higher, aged between 30 and 50 years old. The participants answered a sociodemographic questionnaire (i.e. age, self-reported weight and height, family income, educational level); a questionnaire developed by the researchers to assess variables related to feelings experienced during the lockdown, physical exercise practice, and perceived changes in food intake; and the Three Factor Eating Questionnaire - R21. The data collection was conducted online, using the REDCap® platform between March and April 2021. The association between qualitative variables was evaluated using the Chi square test. One-way ANOVA was conducted to examine group differences between women who reported perceived changes in food intake during the pandemic and those who did not. Results Results demonstrated that the mean body mass index of participants was 35.04 kg/m2 (SD=6.32) and the mean age was 38.73 years old (SD=5.69). During the COVID-19 pandemic, there was a high prevalence of negative feelings such as anxiety (86.5%), fear (65.2%), and exhaustion (59.7%), as well as a reduction in the practice of physical exercise (ꭕ²=44.71, df=4, p<0.001). Regarding food intake, 85% of the sample reported perceived change. There were changes in the amount, frequency, and quality of food consumed, with an increased intake of low-nutrient-high-density food. Regarding eating attitudes, the scores for the uncontrolled eating (F (1, 782) = 38.982; p<0.001) and emotional eating (F (1, 782) = 60.392, p<0.001) subscales were high, especially among women who perceived changes in their food intake during the pandemic. Conclusion Throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, women with overweight or obesity reported a high prevalence of negative feelings, a decrease in physical exercise practice, and changes in food intake and eating attitudes.

ABSTRACT Objective To evaluate the variations between 2008 and 2018 in the consumption of beverages by Brazilian adults per their weight status. Methods This panel study analyzed data from two National Food Surveys referring to the adult population (20-59 years of age) (2008-2008: n=21,003; 2017-2018: n=28,153), with data from food consumption obtained by one food record day and one 24-hour recall day, respectively. The drinks were grouped into 11 groups, for which we estimated the reporting proportion (%), daily means of ingested volume (mL), and contribution (%) to daily energy intake. We assessed weight status by Body Mass Index in not overweight, overweight, and obese. Results No differences were observed in the proportion of adults who reported consuming a drink (98.5% vs. 98.3%) during the period evaluated. However, the mean daily volume (631.9mL vs. 535.1mL) and the caloric contribution of drinks (17.7% vs. 13.6%) decreased. The drinks most cited in both surveys were coffee, fruit juices, and soft drinks. Not overweight and overweight individuals showed a reduction in the reported and mean volume consumed of coffee, soft drinks, milk, dairy drinks, and processed refreshments/juices. We observed a decline in the reported consumption and volume consumed of soft drinks and milk in obese individuals. Conclusion We identified decreased reporting, mean volume, and mean caloric contribution of drinks in general in the Brazilian adult population over the 10-year period between the two surveys.

Abstract Objective To identify nutritional indicators related to anemia considering the sociodemographic context of indigenous-rural Mexican pregnant women. Methods Information was collected from 156 indigenous-rural pregnant women. A sociodemographic questionnaire was administered and nutritional indicators were obtained: Women's Dietary Diversity Score, pregestational body mass index, weight gain for gestational age, hemoglobin concentrations, and serum levels of ferritin, iron, zinc, vitamin C, vitamin B12, and erythrocyte folate. Statistical analysis was conducted to identify variables related to the presence of anemia, creating a binary logistic regression model with significant correlations. Results 24% of the participants had anemia and low iron reserves, 32.1% had low vitamin C concentrations. Furthermore, 37.8% experienced insufficient weight gain or weight loss. Adolescent women had lower pregestational body mass index (22.2±2.8 vs. 24.9±4.4; p=0.000) and lower Women's Dietary Diversity Score compared to adult women (35.8 vs. 21.8; p=0.020). Women living farther away from the municipal center also had lower Women's Dietary Diversity Score (r=-0.213; p=0.028). In adult women, being a homemaker (OR=6.06 [95% CI=1.35-27.28]; p=0.019), experiencing gestational weight loss or insufficient weight gain (OR=5.34 [95% CI=1.56-18.26]; p=0.008), having low ferritin concentrations (OR=13.12 [95% CI=3.48-48.34]; p=0.000) and low vitamin C levels (OR=6.01 [95% CI=1.36-16.00]; p=0.014), were contributors (Nagelkerke r2=0.470) to the presence of anemia. Conclusion When developing strategies for anemia prevention in pregnant women, it is necessary to consider their social, economic, and geographic contexts. Furthermore, public policies should be established to ensure proper implementation of multivitamin supplementation and, in this kind of marginal population starting it from the onset of menstruation.
“Em defesa dos princípios democráticos e cristãos desbaratando a ofensiva comunista”: os grandes proprietários, a Federação das Associações Rurais do Rio Grande do Sul e o Golpe de 1964
Authors: Gasparotto Alessandra
Published: December 2024

RESUMO Este artigo tem como objetivo analisar as práticas de atuação e mobilização dos ruralistas gaúchos agremiados em torno da FARSUL no início dos anos 1960, marcados pela emergência de inúmeros projetos de reforma agrária no estado e no país e pelo vigor dos movimentos de luta pela terra. Examino a atuação da entidade a partir da análise de documentos produzidos pela própria Federação e notícias divulgadas em jornais da grande imprensa. Por fim, busco analisar as posições assumidas pela entidade diante dos projetos de reforma agrária patrocinados pelo governo Jango e as mobilizações e articulações da FARSUL no processo que culminou com o Golpe de 1964.
“Mexa na estrutura”: Josué de Castro, a reforma agrária e o golpe de 1964
Authors: Leme Adriana Salay
Published: December 2024

RESUMO O geógrafo pernambucano Josué de Castro foi uma figura fundamental na luta contra a fome no Brasil, além de ter sido atuante em diversas áreas (foi deputado federal pelo PTB, presidente do conselho da ONU para Alimentação e Agricultura e agente importante na institucionalização de aparatos governamentais contra a fome desde o Estado Novo). É, portanto, figura privilegiada para a compreensão dos debates do período sobre a questão agrária, quando esta se tornou um elemento central para o “desenvolvimento” do país e o fim da fome. A partir do percurso e das ideias do autor, buscamos mostrar seu engajamento nos debates sobre a reforma agrária no Brasil entre fins da década de 1950 e início da de 1960, bem como vincular a centralidade que o tema teve no espaço público quando do golpe de 1964 - temáticas pouco discutidas pela historiografia.
A Petrobras e as graves violações aos direitos humanos cometidas durante a ditadura militar

Published: December 2024

RESUMO O artigo apresenta dados parciais concernentes às violações aos direitos humanos cometidas na ditadura militar pela Petrobras, investigação relevante na medida em que o relatório da Comissão Nacional da Verdade (2014) não considerou a responsabilidade empresarial ao longo deste período. No caso da Petrobras, deixaram-se de lado agentes da repressão que atuavam na empresa e questões como a atuação de sua Divisão de Informações durante os anos 1970, seu apoio a operações dos órgãos de Segurança e a invasão de terras indígenas para pesquisa e exploração de recursos minerais. Além disso, o Informe Público (2023) organizado pela pesquisa coordenada pelo CAAF/Unifesp sobre responsabilidade empresarial é lacunar a este respeito. Esta pesquisa reflete sobre a responsabilização empresarial com base em autores como Victoria Basualdo, e sobre a judicialização desses casos, partindo do Sistema Interamericano de Direitos Humanos e de outros precedentes do Direito Internacional.
