title: Optimization of edible coating with essential oils in blueberries

description: ABSTRACT The application of edible coatings containing natural antimicrobials is a postharvest conservation technology in fruits that have generated interest. This research aimed the determination of the edible coating composition and the concentration of essential oil that allows optimizing the physical-mechanical characteristics for its application in the conservation of blueberries. The antimicrobial activity of the essential oils of cinnamon and lemon was determined, resulting in a minimum inhibitory concentration of 0.3% in both cases. After applying the Box Behnken design of the Response Surface Methodology (RSM), the optimal treatment for edible coating with cinnamon essential oil 0.3% was determined: aloe vera gel 18.40%, gelatin 2%, and glycerol 0.055% obtaining values of 27.95% solubility, 0.90 mm of deformation and 3.34 N of breaking strength. Likewise, the same procedure was followed for the coating with lemon essential oil 0.3%, determining as optimal 23.94% aloe vera gel, 2% gelatin, and 0.05% glycerol, getting values of 28.06% solubility, 0.45 mm deformation, and 4.53 N of breaking strength. Finally, their applications in Biloxi blueberries were validated, preserving the main physicochemical and microbiological quality attributes during 28 days of storage at 2 °C, compared, to a control sample.

title: Caregivers of older adults in palliative care: level of burden and depressive symptoms

description: Abstract Introduction The burden perceived by informal caregivers of older adult cancer patients in palliative care is an incessant daily repetitiveness, and can negatively affect their physical and mental health, as well as their social and family life. Objective To assess the level of burden and the intensity of depressive symptoms in caregivers, and the dependence of the older adults for basic and instrumental activities of daily living. Methods This was a cross-sectional and descriptive study, composed of 20 caregivers and 20 older adults with cancer in palliative care. Caregivers and older adults were administered the socio-economic and demographic profile assessment. For the caregivers, the International Physical Activity Questionnaire - IPAQ, the Zarit Burden Interview (ZBI), and the Beck Depression Inventory (BDI) were used. For the older adults, the Katz Index of Independence in Activities of Daily Living (Katz Index ADL) and the Lawton and Brody Instrumental Activities of Daily Living scales (Lawton and Brody IADL scales) were used. Data were represented in absolute and percentage values. Results Caregivers were predominantly female, mostly daughters of the older adults, married or with a partner, with elementary school education, income of 1 to 3 times the minimum wage, and had a sedentary lifestyle. A moderate level of burden was verified in 75% of the caregivers, and mild to moderate depressive symptoms in 45%. The assessment of ADL in older adults found that 55% were independent in all six functions, with greater dependence (75%) in ADL for housekeeping such as laundry (85%) and driving vehicles (90%). Conclusion Caregivers of older adults cancer patients in palliative care show moderate level of burden, and mild to moderate depressive symptoms.

title: Distribution of physiotherapy professionals and services in public health in Goiás: coverage according to socioeconomic variables

description: Abstract Introduction Public health in Brazil goes beyond social production, with an expanded view of health. Its complex structure includes physical therapy. Objective To characterize physical therapy in Goiás based on the National Registry of Health Facilities (CNES in Portuguese). Methods Data on specialty, municipality, place of employment, working hours, employment relationship, type of contract and establishment, number of physical therapists, administrative setting, macroregion and health region were tabulated. The following were correlated: municipal population; people dependent on the National Health System (SUS in Portuguese); municipal per capita gross domestic product (GDP); municipal Human Development Index (HDI); percentage of inhabitants dependent on the municipal SUS; number of people covered by municipal physiotherapy (NPCAF). Results In the CNES, (reference July/2019) in Goiás, we found 2,187 physiotherapists in public/private facilities, in 3,353 workplaces. In establishments that serve the SUS, we identified 1,673 physiotherapists in 2,436 workplaces, 32.9% of which are linked to primary and 67.1% to specialized care. The weekly workload was 38 hours and 26 hours per workplace. Only 30.1% of the municipalities had adequate NPCAF. Health regions and macroregions had inadequate coverage. The NPCAF showed an inverse correlation with GDP (r = -0.20; p &lt; 0.001) and HDI (r = -0.14; p = 0.02) and a direct correlation with the population (r = 0.46; p &lt; 0.001). Conclusion Goiás has inadequate coverage in 69.9% of the municipalities, in the macroregions and health regions. Expanding the number of workplaces available to physiotherapists is essential to achieve universal and comprehensive health care, reducing inequity and favoring equitable distribution.

title: Comparison of second molar protraction using different timing for piezocision application: A randomized clinical trial

description: ABSTRACT Objective: To compare second molar protraction between early, late and no piezocision groups. Material and Methods: Forty subjects with bilaterally extracted mandibular first molars were selected to participate in the study. Subjects were subdivided into two groups: piezocision and no piezocision. The piezocision group was further subdivided into two subgroups: early piezocision (piezocision performed immediately before second molar protraction) and late piezocision (piezocision performed three months after starting molar protraction). In the no piezocision group, molar protraction was done without surgery. The intervention (piezocision group and timing of piezocision/side within group) was randomly allocated using the permuted random block size of 2, with 1:1 allocation ratio. The amount of second molar protraction, duration of space closure and anterior anchorage loss were measured. A repeated measures analysis of variance was conducted to define the differences between the measured variables at the different time intervals. Differences between groups were assessed using ANOVA test. Results: No difference was detected between early and late piezocision groups in the amount of molar protraction at the end of space closure. Duration of complete space closure was 9 and 10 months in the piezocision and no piezocision groups. Anchorage loss was similar between the three studied groups. Conclusions: Early and late piezocision have similar effect and both increased the amount of second molar protraction temporarily in the first 2-3 months after surgery. Duration of mandibular first molar space closure was reduced by one month when piezocision was applied. Anchorage loss was similar in the three groups.

title: Intracorneal implantation of a misdirected foldable intraocular lens during phacoemulsification surgery: a case report

description: ABSTRACT A 59-year-old man presented with a unilateral blurring of vision in his left eye. His left eye’s visual acuity was hand movements level. He underwent phacoemulsification surgery, and an intrastromal posterior chamber intraocular lens was implanted. The intrastromal intraocular lens was extracted and a new intraocular lens was implanted. Usinge the Snellen chart, the final best-corrected visual acuity was 20/40. With this case report, we wish to emphasize that a single stepwise clear corneal incision merged with wound-assisted intraocular lens injections can result in intraocular lens misdirection into the corneal stroma. As a result, while performing a misdirected intraocular lens removal, we recommend that the wound be carefully constructed.

title: Proline and sodium nitroprusside increase the tolerance of Physalis peruviana L. plants to water deficit through chemical priming

description: ABSTRACT Water deficit is the main cause of abiotic stress to which plants are susceptible, whether cultivated or those that are underexploited, such as Physalis peruviana L. Searching for tools that contribute to the management of water deficit in plants is fundamental for the maintenance of agriculture, especially in arid and semi-arid areas around the world. Thus, the objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of chemical priming with proline and sodium nitroprusside as promoters of increased tolerance to water deficit in P. peruviana plants. Plants grown under well hydrated conditions (FC of 70±5%) were sprayed with proline (10 and 20 mM) or sodium nitroprusside (25 and 50 μM) and evaluated after exposure to water deficit (FC of 20±5%). Plants cultivated under water deficit without pretreatment showed reductions in the variables of water relations, gas exchange and growth. Proline and sodium nitroprusside were effective in maintaining less negative water potential, contributing to improvements in gas exchange, such as CO2 assimilation, stomatal conductance and transpiration. Thus, it was possible to measure greater tolerance to water deficit in pretreated plants and, consequently, greater biomass accumulation. It appeard that pretreatment of proline and sodium nitroprusside can have a priming effect against water deficit in P. peruviana plants.

title: Physiotherapeutic approach and profile of patients treated in the emergency room surgical unit of a tertiary care hospital in the Federal District

description: Abstract Introduction The emergency room (ER) is the main entry door for the care of critically ill patients. The inclusion of physiotherapists in these sectors is being consolidated in Brazil. Objective To characterize the physiotherapeutic approach and the clinical-functional profile of patients in the ER surgical unit of a tertiary hospital. Methods This was a retrospective cross-sectional study conducted from August to December of 2020. Clinical and functional data, and the main physiotherapeutic procedures performed, were collected. Analyses were conducted by means of the Friedman and Pearson Correlation tests, using SPSS software v.23. Results The sample included 98 patients, 68% male, mean age of 52 ± 19 years. The most common (64%) physiotherapeutic diagnosis was central nervous system (CNS) deficiency with mechanical ventilation (MV) dependence. The mean time of MV use was 4 ± 5 days. Association (p &lt; 0.05) between MV time and admission in the emergency department (r = 0.972) and between MV time and age (r = 0.330) was identified. The most used physiotherapeutic actions were: suction (69%), lung re-expansion therapy (51%), and bed kinesiotherapy (37%). Conclusion Adult men with CNS-related disabilities were the principal patient profile. The physiotherapeutic action in the surgical emergency unit was diverse, with application of motor and respiratory techniques, and the predominant activity was the management and maintenance of MV.
