title: Simulating social distancing measures in household and close contact transmission of SARS-CoV-2

description: We sought to evaluate contact rate reduction goals for household and close contacts and to provide preventive recommendations during the coronavirus pandemic. We applied an agent-based model to simulate the transmission dynamics of SARS-CoV-2 within household or close contacts through a social network of 150 nodes. there is no great difference in total infected people within modifications in number of links per node for networks with average number of links per node greater than three. For six nodes, total infected people are 149.85; for five nodes, 148.97; and for four nodes, 141.57. On the other hand, for three nodes, total infected are 82.39, for two nodes, 13.95; and for one node, 2.96. This model indicates a possible pitfall if social distancing measures are not stepwise suspended and close surveillance of cases are not provided, since the relationship between average links per node and number of infected people seems to be s-shaped, and not linear.

title: Use of outpatient health services by postpartum women and newborns: data from the Birth in Brazil study

description: This study aims to estimate postpartum use of outpatient health services and verify the demographic, socioeconomic, and obstetric factors associated with use. A nationwide hospital-based study in 2011-2012 interviewed 23,894 women. Point estimates and respective confidence intervals were calculated for eight indicators of health services use, with performance assessed as “satisfactory” (75%-100%); “partial” (50%-74%), or “unsatisfactory” (&lt; 50%). Multiple logistic regression was performed to verify the association between women’s characteristics and each target indicator. Four indicators (“visit to health service for postpartum follow-up” (73.9%; 95%CI: 72.4-75.3), “visit to health service for neonatal follow-up” (91.6%; 95%CI: 90.6-92.5), “BCG vaccination” (99%; 95%CI: 98.7-99.2), and “HBV vaccination” (96.8%; 95%CI: 96.0-97.5) were considered satisfactory. “Neonatal screening test in the first week of life” was considered partial (60.1%; 95%CI: 57.6-62.6), while “woman’s consultation in the first 15 days postpartum” (37%; 95%CI: 35.0-39.0), “neonatal consultation in the first seven days of life” (21.8%; 95%CI: 20.2-23.5), and “neonatal screening test result in the first month of life” (29.8%; 95%CI: 27.6-32.2) were considered unsatisfactory. Regional and social inequalities were identified, with worse performance for all the indicators in the North and Northeast regions of Brazil and in more vulnerable women, revealing the need for better organization and supply of services to reduce iniquities.

title: Inversion of traditional gender roles and intimate partner violence against pregnant women

description: This study analyzed the association between the inversion of traditional gender roles and exclusive psychological and physical/sexual intimate partner violence, in a cross-sectional study of Brazilian pregnant women, identified through prenatal services in the municipalities of São Luís, Maranhão State (n = 992) and Ribeirão Preto, São Paulo State (n = 943). The pregnant women ranged from 12 to 45 years. Inversion of traditional gender roles was assessed by calculating differences in age, education and occupation between pregnant women and their co-residing intimate partners and identifying the largest contribution to family income. The conceptual model was tested with structural equation modeling and showed acceptable fit. The prevalence of any type of intimate partner violence was 29.8% in São Luís and 20.1% in Ribeirão Preto. In both municipalities, pregnant women were more likely to suffer exclusive psychological and physical/sexual violence when they had the highest income in the family (p &lt; 0.005). In São Luís, physical/sexual violence was more common among women who were better educated than their partners (standardized coefficient, SC = -0.466; p = 0.007). In Ribeirão Preto, exclusive psychological violence was more frequent among women who had lower status occupations than their partners (SC = 0.236; p = 0.004). Inversion of traditional gender roles is associated with exclusive psychological and physical/sexual violence against pregnant women by their co-residing intimate partners. These findings suggest that women's empowerment at an individual level does not necessarily relieve them of intimate partner abuse in social contexts where traditional gender norms persist.

title: An intervention for the implementation of clinical monitoring in specialized care services to people living with HIV/AIDS

description: The clinical monitoring of people living with HIV/AIDS (PLWHA) contributes to identifying and managing cases of individuals who have not begun treatment (gap), those experiencing treatment failure or who have abandoned treatment. This article sought to present and discuss the development of a methodology to implement the clinical monitoring of PLWHA in the services of the Brazilian Unified National Health System (SUS). The methodology used since 2014 by the CRT-STI/AIDS-Coordination of the STI/AIDS Program, São Paulo State, Brazil, was re-structured in three meetings between June and August 2018. The new methodology retained the axes of presentation of number of users in treatment failure, gap or abandonment in the participant services, as well as the discussion of individual, social and programmatic vulnerabilities. A new axis was added which directs the discussion of the possibilities of reorganizing service care flows and management practices. Additionally, the intervention started to be carried out in health services, with the participation of a higher number of professionals from the multi-professional team, discussion of cases, workflows and processes, and regional meetings to exchange clinical monitoring experiences between services. The re-structuring of the methodology contributed to a reduction in treatment gap, a reorganization of care flows and the inclusion of clinical monitoring as a management tool in services specialized in providing care to PLWHA. This methodology can be implemented by other state programs, municipalities and services, since all have access to the same information sources used in this intervention.

title: COVID-19: intensive care units, mechanical ventilators, and latent mortality profiles associated with case-fatality in Brazil

description: In response to the accelerated increase in the number of COVID-19 cases, countries must increase their supply of beds in intensive care units (ICUs). Respiratory diseases, neoplasms, cardiopathies and hypertension, and diabetes are associated with higher COVID-19 case-fatality. The study aimed to identify the regions of Brazil with higher specific mortality rates from these comorbidities and the regions with the greatest shortage of ICU beds and mechanical ventilators. A cross-sectional ecological study was performed in which the units of analysis were the country’s Health Regions. Data were obtained from Brazilian Health Informatics Department - DATASUS (National Registry of Healthcare Establishments - 2019, Mortality Information Systems - 2017, and Population Projections - 2017). We calculated the disease group-specific mortality rates for hypertension, neoplasms, diabetes, cardiac diseases, respiratory diseases and the rates of total ICU beds, private ICU beds, ICU beds in the Brazilian Unified National Health System (SUS), and ventilators in the SUS, per 100,000 inhabitants. The mortality profile was determined by latent profiles analysis, and the cluster analysis of ICU beds and ventilators used the spatial scan method. Kernel maps were constructed for the data’s visualization. Level of significance was set at 5%. Four latent mortality profiles were observed. The Health Regions with the highest mean mortality rates were located in regions with shortages of ICU beds and ventilators, especially in parts of the Northeast, Southeast, and South of Brazil. The spatial localization of regions with both the highest mortality and shortages of ICU beds/ventilators requires attention by policymakers and public planners to deal efficiently and fairly with the COVID-19 epidemic in Brazil.

title: Profile of the research production in Human and Social Sciences in Health and researchers’ perceptions: strides, limits, and challenges

description: This article aims to establish a profile of research production by professors in the field of Human and Social Sciences in Health (HSSH) in graduate studies programs in Public Health, focusing on the period from 2004 to 2012 (three consecutive three-year of the assessment by the Brazilian Graduate Studies Coordinating Board - CAPES), as well as the researchers’ views of the publishing process and the main challenges. The data sources were the CAPES assessment notebooks from 2004 to 2012 and the research output recorded in the Curriculum Lattes database for 176 professors from the HSSH field accredited in the graduate studies programs in Public Health in the same period, obtained from the ScriptLattes tool. Online questionnaires were answered anonymously by 59 researchers, besides in-depth semi-structured interviews with 19 researchers from different generations, in addition to incorporating the authors’ perceptions from both data sources on the field’s recent situation. Research output in HSSH increased by 60.49% in the production of articles and 25.22% in the production of books in the period studied (62.36% of the research output was published in the form of articles). However, the number of researchers did not increase during the period, which may be explained by the difficulty in accreditation in the graduate studies programs due to growing pressure to publish. Researchers from the field expressed dissatisfaction with various aspects of the science publishing process and the effects of CAPES assessment, including the push for “productivism”, overlooking differences between areas in research production tempos and processes, a situation that can compromise Public Health’s inherent interdisciplinarity.

title: Interaction of sociodemographic factors in the association between psychosocial factors and active commuting to school

description: Abstract: The study aimed to analyze the interaction of sociodemographic factors in the association between psychosocial factors and active commuting to school. This was a cross-sectional study in 2018 with a sample of 1,984 students. The target sociodemographic factors were sex, age, parents’ schooling, and socioeconomic status. Social support and self-efficacy were measured with questionnaires. Active commuting to school was defined as walking, bicycling, or skateboarding to and from school. Binary logistic regression was used to verify the association between psychosocial factors and active commuting to school. Then, interaction terms with the sociodemographic variables (age, father’s schooling, mother’s schooling, socioeconomic status) were included in the relationship between psychosocial factors and active commuting to school. The sample consisted of 1,984 adolescents (55.9% females). Of these, 748 (37.7% of the sample) reported active commuting to school during a normal week. Analyses of interaction showed that high levels of schooling and high socioeconomic status were negatively associated with active commuting to school. Low socioeconomic status and low schooling were positively associated with such commuting. The peer social support scale showed more significant variables than the other scales. The results indicate that sociodemographic factors (parents’ schooling and socioeconomic status) moderate the association between psychosocial factors and active commuting to school.

title: Implementation of the More Doctors Program in Espírito Santo State, Brazil: logic model and proposed indicators

description: The study aimed to assess the implementation of the More Doctors Program (PMM in Portuguese) based on a case study of the Espírito Santo State, Brazil. The first stage involved analyzing the documents that launched the PMM, allowing the creation of a logic model. In the second stage, data on the PMM in Espírito Santo State were analyzed (2013-2016) based on population brackets, creating indicators for the proportion of physicians before and after the Program with the following parameters: unacceptable (0 to 0.99 physicians/1,000 inhabitants); acceptable (1 to 1.99); and desirable (2.0 or more). Data were analyzed with the Wilcoxon and Kruskal-Wallis non-parametric tests. The model included the size, inputs, activities, outputs, results, and impact of the PMM, orienting analysis of the Program’s implementation. Of all the physicians in the emergency supply to Espírito Santo State (432), the majority (63.8%) were cooperative exchange physicians (Cubans), while 31.2% were regional board-accredited Brazilians. The Brazilian and individual exchange physicians were allocated mainly in medium and large municipalities, while the Cubans were distributed more heterogeneously in municipalities of all population sizes and were thus more common in areas with greater social vulnerability and lower social capital. There was a significant increase in the number of physicians in Espírito Santo State, but the supply to the extremely poor population did not reach the desired level, presenting an unacceptable mean rate in municipalities with up to 10,000 inhabitants and an acceptable rate in municipalities in the other population brackets.
