title: What aspects influence the prioritization of Primary Health Care by municipal managers in Rio Grande do Sul - Brazil?

description: Abstract Primary Health Care (PHC) is capable of achieving broad coverage and effectiveness. This study evaluated the factors associated with the prioritization that municipal health managers in the state of Rio Grande do Sul (RS) give to PHC. A cross-sectional analytical study was carried out between August 2017 and May 2019 using an online FormSUS questionnaire, consisting of 44 questions divided into 4 blocks, sent to 497 municipal health managers. Multiple logistic regression was performed to analyze factors associated with PHC prioritization. Out of 404 participants, 66.8% reported a maximum degree of prioritization. Managers with a postgraduate degree showed greater prioritization than those with elementary education (78.5% vs 58.8%, p&lt;0.01). Regarding the postgraduate area, managers with training in public health prioritized PHC more than in other areas, or with no postgraduate studies, respectively with 84%, 77.1% and 61.8% (p&lt;0.01). After adjusting for covariates, having a postgraduate degree in public health or in another area remained associated with greater chances of prioritization. The results may encourage initiatives that consider the level and area of education for this position focusing on technical, and not strictly political criteria.

title: Pandemic analysis and bioethical considerations on early treatment

description: Abstract The global crisis caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus, responsible for COVID-19, can be interpreted in different ways, including epidemic behavior, waves of impact on health systems and consequences of measures directly or indirectly linked to fighting the pandemic. Thus, the responses to these challenges must be comprehensive, covering the different levels of prevention. As a possible answer, early treatment should not be seen in isolation, but in a context of comprehensive care. This article presents ways to analyze the current crisis and the ethical elements relevant to early treatment.

title: Liver transplantation for the treatment of iatrogenic bile duct injury

description: ABSTRACT Objective: to assess the outcomes of our patients who were subjected to LT for iatrogenic bile duct injury. Methods: all patients who underwent LT for treatment of complications of biliary duct injury were included in the study. Medical records and study protocols of these patients were retrospectively analyzed to determine demographic and clinical characteristics, treatment, and outcome of the patients. Results: of a total of 846 liver transplants performed, 12 (1.4%) were due to iatrogenic bile duct injury: 10 (83.3%) occurred during cholecystectomy, 1 (8.3%) following chemoembolization, and 1 (8.3%) during laparotomy to control abdominal bleeding. Cholecystectomy was performed by open access in 8 patients and by laparoscopic access in two . There were 8 female (66.7%) and 4 male (33.3%) with a mean age of 50.6 ± 13.1 years (range 23 to 70 years). All transplants were performed with livers from cadaveric donors. The mean operative time was 558.2 ± 105.2 minutes (range, 400-782 minutes). Biliary reconstruction was performed with Roux-en-Y hepaticojejunostomy in 11 patients and choledochocholedochostomy in one. Seven patients died (58.3%) and five (41.7%) were alive during a mean followed up of 100 months (range 18 to 118 months). Conclusion: liver transplantation in patients with iatrogenic bile duct injury is a complex procedure with elevated morbimortality.

title: Family-centered care on a physiotherapy course: case reports

description: Abstract Introduction: Family-Centered Care (FCC) is a philosophy that recognizes the family as a partner in the intervention process and currently constitutes one of the most important practices in pediatric physical therapy intervention. For this reason, FCC should be part of pediatric physiotherapy training so that future physiotherapists are able to include it in their clinical practice. Objective: To verify the feasibility of applying FCC as part of an undergraduate Physiotherapy course, focusing on the activity of children with different health conditions. Methods: This is a case report, based on information collected from medical records, on an intervention program carried out with 5 children and their families, in the home, once a week for seven weeks, by students of physical therapy in pediatrics. For pre- and post-intervention assessment of the children, standardized instruments were used: Gross Motor Function Measure (GMFM) and the Alberta Infant Motor Scale (AIMS). Reports were collected from families and students regarding the FCC experience. Results: The children with neurological impairment increased the GMFM target area score by more than 5%, indicating clinical improvement. A child at biological risk had a pre-intervention AIMS percentile of &lt; 25 and a post-intervention percentile of 50, while another child with developmental delay did not alter his percentile. At the end of the intervention, families reported greater confidence in carrying out activities with their children and students reported the experience as relevant to their professional training. Conclusion: The practical application of FCC proved promising in the academic context of pediatric physical therapy.

title: LANGUAGE IDEOLOGIES AND CONSTRUCTIONS OF SUBJECTIVITIES IN ENGLISH COURSEBOOK MATERIALS: A CASE OF REFUGEES

description: ABSTRACT It is impossible to think about the history of foreign language teaching without reflecting on coursebook materials. They have taken such a significant role in language teaching that their presence in the educational process becomes an imperative - or, at least, a desire. Despite being an instrument of democratization of language learning in theory, the coursebook material may homogenize teaching and learning practices, erasing learners’ subjectivities, and offering a pasteurized view of the social world. Considering this scenario, this article aims at investigating the language ideologies that orient the construction of the social category identified as “refugees” in the collection Raise up!, which is characterized as a collection of coursebooks in favor of diversity. Based on the theoretic-analytical construct of language ideologies (WOOLARD, 1998; KROSKRITY, 2004) and the semiotic processes of iconization, fractal recursivity and erasure (IRVINE; GAL, 2000), it is understood that the coursebook’s theoretical conception indexes discourses of social transformation; however, the activities proposed throughout the lessons still rely on a perspective of English as a system of bounded signs. Consequently, the subjectivity in focus is built on a process of cleanliness of linguistic, political, and social traits, indexing a structuralist and “purist” language ideology aligned with the modern rationale.

title: Self-reported discrimination against adults with hearing loss in Brazilian health services: results of the National Health Survey

description: Abstract This article aims to estimate the prevalence of self-reported discrimination against people with hearing loss in Brazilian health services and analyze associated factors. We conducted a cross-sectional population-based study using data from the 2013 National Health Survey. The final study sample comprised 1,464 individuals with self-reported hearing loss. Poisson regression was used to calculate crude and adjusted prevalence ratios (PR) and respective 95% confidence intervals. The overall prevalence of discrimination was 15%. Prevalence was higher among black people and respondents who reported experiencing limitations in activities of daily living. Prevalence of discrimination in Brazilian health services was highest in black people with limitations in activities of daily living. The implementation of policies and actions to address this problem is recommended, including strategies during the education and training of health professionals.

title: An overweight/obesity survey among dogs and cats attended at a veterinary teaching hospital during the second year of the COVID-19 pandemic

description: ABSTRACT Anecdotal reports suggest that the new coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 pandemic (COVID-19) has increased overweight and obesity prevalence in dogs and cats. The present report aimed to perform a retrospective overweight/obesity survey on 1,001 consecutive cases attended in the Veterinary Clinics Hospital from the Federal University of Rio Grande do Sul during its reopening to the public after months closed due to the pandemic. The overall overweight or obesity observed prevalence was 36.63%; being the frequency in cats slightly greater (38.37%) than compared to dogs (35.76%). No local increase in these frequencies was detected. Neutering (dogs and cats), age greater than 10 years (dogs), and male gender (cats) were factors associated with overweight/obesity. Bodyweight was not registered in about 30% of the medical records, while the body condition score was not registered in about 50% of the cases. These flaws were more often observed in feline medical records and efforts to improve these data records are warranted.

title: LUNG VENTILATORS, RESPIRATORS, AND FACE MASKS: THE DENOMINATIVE AND CONCEPTUAL VARIATION IN THE MEDICAL DEVICES SUB-AREA DURING COVID-19

description: ABSTRACT This paper addresses the denominative and conceptual variation in the terminology of medical devices. The analysis focuses on three devices directly involved in COVID-19 prevention and therapy: face masks, respirators, and lung ventilators. The aim is to investigate the uses of selected terms in technical publications in the area, such as ABNT standards and manuals from manufacturers of these products (specialized speech) and in publications aimed at the general public. The theoretical foundation is based on denominative and conceptual terminological variation research (such as those by CABRÉ, 1999; KOSTINA, 2000; FAULSTICH, 2001; FREIXA, 2002, 2006, 2013) and textual accessibility and plain language (FINATTO, 2020; FISCHER, 2020). We created two corpora to conduct the research: the first consists of user manuals and ABNT standards; the second consists of digital texts broadcasted by Brazilian journalistic media companies from March 2020 to June 2021. The analysis of the occurrences of denominative and conceptual variation in the different corpora proved a lack of homogeneity in the denomination of these medical devices. Although medical devices are a restricted area that is strictly regulated and found to be in the process of standardization, the occurrence of variation is usual, both denominative and conceptual, and this aspect is intensified by the process of disseminating science.

title: Influence of anxiety and catastrophizing on pain perception in orthodontic treatment and its association with inflammatory cytokines

description: Abstract Pain is common in orthodontic treatment, is subject to individual variation, and is associated with anxiety and stress, which can potentially become catastrophizing. The aim of the present study was to determine the variability of pain response after the insertion of orthodontic separators and to assess the association of pain levels with dental anxiety, catastrophizing, tooth sensitivity, and genetic expression of cytokines. To this end, 70 patients of both genders were divided into two equal groups according to the elastomeric separator used: G1 (Dentaurum) and G2 (Orthometric). Two separators were inserted in the mesial and distal sides of the lower right first molar. Participants were instructed to rate the level of pain at T0 (before insertion), T1 (just after insertion), and T2 (24 hours after insertion) on a visual analog scale. The gingival crevicular fluid was collected at T0 and T2. The levels of anxiety, catastrophizing, tooth sensitivity, and cytokine expression were also assessed. Statistical analysis was performed with the Fisher-Freeman-Halton, chi-squared, Spearman’s correlation, and dependent and independent t tests (α=5%). Pain intensity was higher at T2 than at T1, in both groups (P&lt;.05). An association was established (P&lt;.05) between pain intensity at T1 and catastrophizing, and at T2 with anxiety and catastrophizing. Within-group differences in cytokine expression were found between T0 and T2. There was no correlation between cytokine expression and pain levels, anxiety, catastrophizing, and sensitivity at T2. Tooth separation produced variable pain levels, which were influenced by anxiety and catastrophizing, however, pain level was not correlated with increased cytokine expression.
