title: Relationship between hospitalizations, deaths and service structure

description: Abstract Background The structuring of health services is a fundamental element to respond to the burden of chronic diseases. Objective To analyze the relationship between hospitalizations and deaths due to diseases of the circulatory system and the structure in health services. Method A cross-sectional study developed in the state of the Brazilian central-west was carried out with a health region composed of 17 municipalities and 1,112,792 inhabitants. The demographic, epidemiological and health structure dimensions were analyzed using descriptive statistics and Pearson's linear correlation. Results The mortality rate due to diseases of the circulatory system was 29.49%, higher than the findings in the country and in the center-west. There was a significant correlation between hospitalization for ischemic heart diseases and number of beds, and between hospitalization for diseases of the circulatory system and number of specialized services for each 10,000 inhabitants. Conclusion The differences found between hospitalizations and the existence of specialized services and beds indicate that the population that lives in municipalities with a complex service structure has more access to services and hospitalizations. The results demonstrate that there must be greater care in the conformation and offer of services in the Health Care Network for diseases of the circulatory system, aiming to ensure equity in the population's access to the agreed services.

title: The socio-spatial context of intentional homicide victims in a capital of Brazilian Northeast

description: Abstract Background The homicide, besides being a public health problem, also reveals a complex context of social inequality that prevails in capitals and larges cities of Brazil. Objective The objective of this study was to analyze the socio-spatial context of intentional homicide victims in a capital of Brazilian Northeast. Method An ecological and documentary based study with a quantitative approach was carried out in João Pessoa, state of Paraíba, Brazil, in 2015, which considered 369 victims of homicide. Data analysis was carried out in light of descriptive statistics and spatial analysis. Results Victims of malice murder were predominantly male, young adults, non-white, singles, and less than seven years of studies. In addition, there was overlap, to a large extent of the areas where the victims of malice murder resided, with the map of the areas with the worst socioeconomic conditions. Conclusion Homicide has a substantial repercussion on the epidemiological context, in addition to its lethal characteristic. The issues surrounding them, in which important complex social issues appear, are broad and difficult to change in the short term.

title: Evaluation of Psidium guajava fruit chemoprotective against the genotoxic effects of doxorubicin

description: Abstract Background Guava is a fruit widely used as food and is considered a medicinal plant in the tropical and subtropical countries. Scientific research has shown that the fruit contains chemical constituents with comprehensive clinical use. In addition, most of the substances used in cancer treatment have been isolated from natural products. Objective To evaluate the cytotoxic, mutagenic, antimutagenic, and chemoprotective potential of the freeze-dried fruit of Psidium guajava, guava, in vivo. Method Cytotoxicity, mutagenicity, and antimutagenicity were evaluated in three different dosages (0.625, 1.25, 2.50 g/kg) of guava. Results The results show that guava does not present cytotoxic 2 and mutagenic activity in the micronucleus assay in peripheral blood and there were no alterations in ALT and AST values showing the absence of hepatic toxicity. In animals treated with guava, the dose of 0.625 mg/kg significantly reduced the damage induced by doxorubicin. Conclusion These results show that guava consumption is safe as it is also capable of protecting the genetic material from changes.

title: Polypharmacy, inappropriate medication use and associated factors among brazilian older adults

description: Abstract Background Population aging is still an important worldwide phenomenon. Elderly people suffer from multiple chronic diseases that require the use of several drugs, and this demographic scenario fosters the increased prescription of multiple drugs, or Polypharmacy (PP) and Potentially Inappropriate Medication (PIM). Objective This study aimed to identify the prevalence rates and associated factors of PP and PIM in Brazilian older adults. Method The prevalence of PIM use and PP was estimated in a sample of 222 patients enrolled in the Family Health Program in Niterói, Brazil. Logistic regression models were used to analyze the data. Age and sex were kept in the models as potential confounding factors. Results PP and PIM use presented prevalence rates of 23.9 and 24.8%, respectively. PP was associated with body mass index, coronary heart disease, diabetes mellitus, and a number of comorbidities, whereas PIM use was associated with PP. Conclusion The prevalence rates of PP and PIM use found were lower than those reported in previous studies. This could be a result of differences in availability of drugs or prescribing habits. Multiple chronic diseases were associated with PP. These results suggest that more care should be taken in prescribing for the elderly population.

title: Prevalence and factors associated to the presence of expired medications in households

description: Abstract Background The storage of expired medications at home can cause potential damage to human health and the environment. Thus, studies that support intervention policies to minimize risks are essential. Objective To estimate the prevalence and factors associated with storage of expired medications at home. Method The cross-sectional study was conducted through interviews in the homes of Primary Health Care (PHC) users of a city in the center-west of Minas Gerais, Brazil. Prevalence estimates and their associations were performed using generalized linear models (MLGs). Results We found 4,203 medications stored in 423 homes, with an average of 10 medication/residence (SD=5.87). The prevalence of homes with expired medications was 45.4%, with antimicrobials and analgesics being the most prevalent. The presence of expired medications is associated with the presence of Over the Counter drugs (OTC) and antimicrobials at homes, and the behavior of keeping the unused drug in their home pharmacy. Conclusion Almost half of the homes have expired medications. And the presence of these drugs is associated with the therapeutic class and the behavior of the PHC user.

title: Physical activity and life quality of university professors

description: Abstract Background The quality of life is a subject that has been investigated in several areas of knowledge and under many approaches. Objective To investigate the practice of leisure time physical activity among university professors and to analyze its association with quality of life. Method The target population was professors of the Federal University of the Rio Grande, Brazil, who were active and worked on campus in the city of the Rio Grande in the second half of 2015. The collection was carried out by completing an electronic questionnaire. The quality of life was assessed by the instrument The Medical Outcomes Study 36- item Short Form Health Survey (SF-36). Data were analyzed by analysis of variance test or nonparametric Kruskal-Wallis test. Results The sample included 270 participants, representing 40% of eligible professors. There were 70.4% that reported performing some physical activity in leisure time, and 43.0% (95%CI 37.0 to 48.9) were considered physically active (≥150 min/week). This group obtained the highest score for quality of life, suggesting a linear positive association between physical activity and the score of quality of life (p&lt;0.01). Conclusions Less than half of college professors were considered physically active. There was a positive linear association of physical activity practice with higher scores of quality of life.
