title: The impact of approaching grief on the neonatal team: professional experience report

description: ABSTRACT This case report describes the holistic performance of the multidisciplinary team in a context of approaching the moment of death of a newborn, in a cross-cultural approach, and its impact on the working group. We report the clinical case of a neonate diagnosed as severe congenital heart disease, who evolved with early surgical intervention and died on the second day of life. Considering the neonatal intensive care unit an area requiring performance of a specialized team that addresses, with a high level of complexity, in a broad way, the patient, and his family, the death of a child breaks the logic of the life cycle. The multiprofessional and family management of the newborn in question illustrates the opportunities that are still being improved in the care of mourning in the neonatal period. Demonstrating that the care process does not end at the time of death, and the period of mourning is still a challenge for the neonatal team. Even so, parents can be welcomed, with care provided in a private and secure manner, with their needs, and preserved individuality. We observe the need for professional qualification and support for mourning and the need for specific institutional policies, since the health organizations must be attentive and take care of those who care, be cared for with a different look at their emotions.

title: Falls in older adults: a practical approach

description: ABSTRACT Background: Falls are a major problem in public health since they are an important cause of morbidity and mortality. To evaluate the risk of fall and prescribe preventive interventions may be a challenging task. Objectives: The objectives of this study are to summarize the most relevant information on the topic “falls in the elderly” and to give a critical view and practical clinical approach on this topic. Methods: In March 2022, a search of Pubmed database was performed, using the terms “fall elderly”, fall prevention”, “fall risk”, with the following parameters: five years, review, systematic review, meta-analysis, practice guidelines. Results: There are several risk factors for falls that can be grouped in different areas (psychosocial, demographic, medical, medication, behavioral, environmental). The clinical evaluation of an older adult prone to falls must include identification of risk factors through history and examination and identification of risk of falls through an assessment tool such as gait velocity, functional reach test, timed up and go, Berg balance test, and miniBEST test. Fall prevention strategies can be single or multiple, and physical activity is the most cited. Technology can be used to detect and prevent falls. Conclusion: A systematic approach to the older patient in risk of falls is feasible and may impact fall prevention.

title: Risk factors and diseases associated with failure of natural passive immunization in foals

description: ABSTRACT This study aimed to report the prevalence of diseases in foals, patients at the Hospital Veterinário de Grandes Animais, Universidade Federal de Lavras (HVGA-UFLA), and its association with deaths and possible failures in the transfer of passive immunity (FTIP) via colostrum. Data were obtained from clinical records of horses aged between 0 and 3 months, admitted to the HVGA between January/2014 and December/2018. Descriptive analyzes of the diseases and organ systems affected were performed, as well as univariate analyzes with chi-square or Fisher's exact tests, identifying possible associations between FTIP, infectious diseases and other factors. No significant relationships were found between FTIP and infectious disease, meconium retention, sepsis, or death. However, it was shown that animals weighing between 10 and 30kg were 29.333 times more likely (95% confidence interval 1.734 - 505.951) to die than those weighing between 30.1 and 130kg. Therefore, it can be concluded that low weight is a very relevant risk factor, which may be related to the failure of postural reflexes and, consequently, to the inability to ingest colostrum, impairing the ability to respond to infectious agents.

title: Update on the diagnosis and management of neurocysticercosis

description: ABSTRACT Background: Neurocysticercosis (NCC) is a serious public health problem in several developing countries, including those in Latin America, Asia, and Africa. NCC is considered to be the main cause of late-onset epilepsy in endemic areas. Objective: This review summarizes recent advances in diagnosis and therapy of NCC. Methods: Relevant articles and books were reviewed and used as a source of information for this review. Results: The diagnosis of NCC is based upon neuroimaging studies (MRI and computed tomography) and laboratory analysis of the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). Praziquantel and albendazole are considered parasiticidal drugs against NCC, but there is an intense debate over the value and safety of these drugs. Conclusion: Given the relative scarcity of clinical trials, more comparative interventional studies, especially randomized controlled trials in long-term clinical evolution, are required in order to clarify the controversy over the validity of parasitic therapy in patients with NCC.

title: DISCOURSES ABOUT THE CRIMINALIZATION OF HOMOPHOBIA AND TRANSPHOBIA IN THE NEWS PORTAL O ANTAGONISTA

description: ABSTRACT In this paper, we present a sample of the results of the research Discursive facets around the criminalization of homophobia and transphobia (TAVARES, 2019), whose objective was to analyze how the decision of the Brazilian Federal Supreme Court to typify homophobia and transphobia as a crime was mobilized in a chain of discursive events published by the news portal O Antagonista. Based on the theoretical assumptions of critical discourse studies and using the language of description of the transitivity system, we take three texts from the corpus to show how the events and social actors involved are represented, which discourses such texts update and what potential meaning effects they have. The results indicate that the representation thematizes the possible discontent of religious people and erases the benefits to the LGBTQIA+ community. Such erasure is used ideologically to sustain LGBTphobia as a social structure in which LGBTQIA+ lives are unimportant or not worthy of protection.

title: Relationship between patterns of father-child activation, family functioning and child behavior

description: Abstract Relationships established in the family, such as the father-child activation relationship, interfere in the child's behavior. To understand the relationships between father-child activation, family functioning and child behavior, a study was conducted with 12 two-parent hetero-affective families with preschool children. It was used: Sociodemographic Questionnaire; Risk Situation; Family Adaptability and Cohesion Evaluation Scales; and Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire. It was found that: eight children were classified as activated, three as under-activated and one as over-activated; the functioning of families is balanced and/or rigidly cohesive; and in the child's behavior it was verified high prosocial behavior and low scores in difficulties. Besides the activation relationship, family functioning was fundamental to understand the child's behavior.

title: Who has the most resources to govern? A comparison between states and local governments per capital revenue

description: ABSTRACT This paper examines differences in per capita revenues across Brazil’s states and capital municipalities. It provides a theoretical overview of Brazil’s fiscal equalization programs (the State and Municipal “Participation” Funds). The paper then provides evidence that these programs are not only failing to meet their equalization objectives, but in addition they are creating distorted patterns of revenues per capita across states and municipalities: some economically poor states and municipalities have revenues per capita far above the national average. This pattern of revenues per capita should be brought to the public’s and policy makers’ attention so that they may: (i) better evaluate the performance of state and local governments, and (ii) better evaluate proposals for revising Brazil’s system of fiscal federalism.

title: A STUDENT’S FUNDS OF PEREZHIVANIA: PEDRO WANTS TO WRITE A BOOK

description: ABSTRACT This article explores aspects of an illiterate Adult and Youth Education (EJA, in Brazil) student’s personal and academic trajectory. To investigate these aspects, we seek to answer this question: how are the student’s funds of perezhivania structured, in the school context, considering that he is learning how to read and write at the age of twenty? To answer it, we discuss the notions of perezhivanie (VYGOTSKY, 2010; REY, 2016; VERESOV, 2016), agency (NININ; MAGALHÃES, 2016), repertoire (BLOMMAERT, BACKUS, 2012; BUSCH, 2017; GUIMARÃES, MOITA LOPES, 2017), and funds (of knowledge, identity, and perezhivania) (MOLL et al., 1992; ESTEBAN-GUITART, MOLL, 2014; LIBERALI, MEGALE, 2020). The research method is qualitative-interpretative research (case study). The procedures to gather data are one semi-structured interview and conversations between student and researcher-teacher. Based on the literature review, our data interpretation suggests that there is a transformation in the subject’s agency. We believe that internal and external factors, as well as the student-teacher relationship and the student’s interaction with the school, led to this transformation. These changes constitute the subject’s funds of perezhivania.

title: Status epilepticus: review on diagnosis, monitoring and treatment

description: Abstract Status epilepticus (SE) is a frequent neurological emergency associated with high morbidity and mortality. According to the new ILAE 2015 definition, SE results either from the failure of the mechanisms responsible for seizure termination or initiation, leading to abnormally prolonged seizures. The definition has different time points for convulsive, focal and absence SE. Time is brain. There are changes in synaptic receptors leading to a more proconvulsant state and increased risk of brain lesion and sequelae with long duration. Management of SE must include three pillars: stop seizures, stabilize patients to avoid secondary lesions and treat underlying causes. Convulsive SE is defined after 5 minutes and is a major emergency. Benzodiazepines are the initial treatment, and should be given fast and an adequate dose. Phenytoin/fosphenytoin, levetiracetam and valproic acid are evidence choices for second line treatment. If SE persists, anesthetic drugs are probably the best option for third line treatment, despite lack of evidence. Midazolam is usually the best initial choice and barbiturates should be considered for refractory cases. Nonconvulsive status epilepticus has a similar initial approach, with benzodiazepines and second line intravenous (IV) agents, but after that, aggressiveness should be balanced considering risk of lesion due to seizures and medical complications caused by aggressive treatment. Usually, the best approach is the use of sequential IV antiepileptic drugs (oral/tube are options if IV options are not available). EEG monitoring is crucial for diagnosis of nonconvulsive SE, after initial control of convulsive SE and treatment control. Institutional protocols are advised to improve care.
