title: Newborn's pain under the mother's perception

description: ABSTRACT BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Pain can generate important complications for the newborn. The mother, inserted in this context, becomes an important ally during the hospitalization since she stays with the. Thus, the study aimed to identify the mother's perception of pain in her hospitalized child in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit and to compare the mothers' reports with a range of behavioral and physiological signs. METHODS: This is a qualitative study in a tertiary hospital in the State of Ceará. Fifteen mothers who were with their children hospitalized at the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit participated in the study, where they were placed in front of their children in two different moments: at rest and handling, in order to identify signs of pain. The data were analyzed by approximation of the speeches as proposed by Minayo. RESULTS: The results showed that the mothers did not perceive signs of pain in the newborn at rest. However, when handled, the mothers were able to identify the signs of pain through the characteristics presented in the newborn: facial expression, strong crying and the movement of arms and legs. CONCLUSION: Mothers are able to identify signs of pain in the child during painful procedures, mainly through crying and face changes. Thus, it points out the relevance of using pain evaluation scales to measure the behavioral and physiological signs of the newborn in a Neonatal Intensive Care Unit.

title: Prevalence of acute pain in patients attending the emergency room

description: ABSTRACT BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Despite the importance of acute pain in the health-disease process, there are few studies about its prevalence in emergency services that function as a gateway to health services. The objective of this study was to evaluate the prevalence of acute pain in an emergency room setting. METHODS: The data were collected from September 2016 to June 2017, using the medical records of patients treated in the emergency service in 2015. Considering the average of 8,000 visits per month, we adopted a random sampling process using categorical variables, and it was estimated a sample of 4,064 records. RESULTS: The pain was present among older people (39.6 years) when compared to patients who had pain and other symptoms associated (37.0 years) (p=0.000). There was a higher concentration of demand for the service by women (55.3%) due to pain and other causes, and for acute pain, the demand was 50.1% of females. In risk classification, 86.6% was characterized not urgent, and 99.6% sought service on their own. Only 0.5% of patients affected by acute pain were referred to other services. CONCLUSION: The study showed that the majority of the care demand at the emergency room is of little complexity and could be attended at the primary care unit. The pain is present in all types of care, and the objective is to relieve the pain, leading patients to look for an agile and decisive service.

title: Adjustment of growth models in broiler chickens

description: Abstract: The objective of this work was to investigate adjustments of the Gompertz, Logistic, von Bertalanffy, and Richards growth models, in male and female chickens of the Cobb 500, Ross 308, and Hubbard Flex lines. Initially, 1,800 chickens were randomly housed in 36 pens, with six replicates per lineage and sex, fed ad libitum with feed according to gender, and bred until 56 days of age. Average weekly body weight for each line and sex was used to estimate model parameters using the ordinary least squares, weighted by the inverse variance of the body weight and weighted with a first-order autocorrelated error structure. Weighted models and weighted autocorrelated error models showed different parameter values when compared with the unweighted models, modifying the inflection point of the curve and according to the adjusted coefficient of determination, and the standard deviation of the residue and Akaike information criteria exhibited optimal adjustments. Among the models studied, the Richards and the Gompertz models had the best adjustments in all situations, with more realistic parameter estimates. However, the weighted Richards model, with or without ponderation with the autoregressive first order model AR (1), exhibited the best adjustments in females and males, respectively.

title: Obesity awareness among elders living in rural area: a household survey

description: Abstract The acceptance of the disease is essential to health self-care, elder’s awareness regarding obesity is suggested to influence their search for health services, and consequently, in obesity’s treatment. This study aimed to verify obesity awareness of elders living in rural areas and associated socioeconomic and demographic factors. We conducted a cross-sectional household survey with 562 individuals, who were older than 60 years and were rural residents from a Brazil southeast city. The identification of obesity awareness was consisted in the agreement between the self-referred obesity and the diagnosis criteria using the body-mass index &gt;27Kg/m2. The associated socioeconomic and demographic factors were: gender, age range, marital status, education and income. Descriptive statistical analysis, Kappa index and logistic regression (p &lt;0.05) were conducted. The highest percentage of elders were men (53.6%), 60├ 70 years old (62.6%), married (67.8%), studied for 4|-8 years (40.0%) and with an individual monthly income of one minimal wage (45.7%). The prevalence of obesity according to the body-mass index was 34.7% and the self-referred 15.1%, which was classified as regular agreement by the Kappa coefficient (k= 0.232; p&lt;0.001). The majority of the elders with obesity were not aware of this condition (64.6%), with higher odds ratio for men than for women (OR=2.34; CI=1.29-4.77). We found high obesity prevalence among elders residents in the rural area, who did not recognize themselves with this condition. Moreover, elderly men presented lower obesity awareness than women.

title: Sensory profile and evaluation of the degree of acceptability of bread produced with inulin and oligofructose

description: Abstract Homemade bread was produced with 4.4 and 4.45 g of total fructans per 50 g serving to meet Brazilian standards for prebiotic claims. The bread samples were characterized for their sensory profiles using descriptive analysis and for their sensory acceptability using hedonic and just-about-right scales for sweetness intensity. The sensory profiles of the breads were similar and sweetness was the term that discriminated the bread samples obtained, since the intensity decreased from the bread formulated with oligofructose/inulin to the bread formulated with inulin and finally to the standard bread formulation. Comparing the crust colour of the standard bread with the crust colour of the bread with inulin, the bread with inulin was more beige, while the bread with oligofructose/inulin had smaller bubbles and was not as soft. The bread with oligofructose/inulin had a higher degree of acceptability with respect to flavour and overall acceptability than the standard bread, but the bread with fructans was preferred as compared to the standard bread in terms of appearance, aroma, texture, flavour and overall acceptability. In conclusion, the addition of fructans to bread formulations is promising and may promote the elaboration and consumption of new prebiotic products in the bakery line.

title: Porous cup shape and installation mode influencing determinations of matric potential by tensiometers

description: Abstract: The objective of this work was to determine the measurement accuracy of the soil water matric potential (ψm) by puncture tensiometers with either rounded or pointed porous cups, installed with or without “soil mud”, and to compare the performance of these tensiometers with that of tensiometers equipped with mercury manometers. The experiment was conducted in a Ultisol, in a randomized complete block design, in a factorial arrangement with five replicates. Puncture tensiometers with rounded porous cups, installed with “soil mud”, present more elevated accuracy for ψm determination in a wider measurement range, resembling tensiometers equipped with mercury manometers in drying soil.

title: Salt concentrations in culture media for the development of Dipteryx alata in vitro

description: Abstract: The objective of this work was to evaluate how salt concentrations in media used for in vitro cultures affect the early development of “barueiro” (Dipteryx alata) seedlings obtained from the shoot apex. Two different in vitro culture media - Murashige & Skoog (MS) and wood plant medium (WPM) - in different salt concentrations (25, 50, 75, and 100%) were used. At 120 days, the D. alata seedlings in the MS medium, in its original concentration (100%), developed better than in other concentrations or in the WPM. Therefore, the MS medium was considered the most suitable for ensuring in vitro establishment because it provided greater root length (27.65 cm) and number of leaves per plant (26 leaves) than the other medium.

title: Parameters Associated with Adverse Fetal Outcomes in Parvovirus B19 Congenital Infection

description: Abstract Objective To investigate the clinical and sonographic parameters associated with adverse fetal outcomes in patients with congenital parvovirus B19 infection managed by intrauterine transfusion. Methods This was a single-center retrospective study conducted from January 2005 to December 2016 that assessed patients with singleton pregnancies with fetal parvovirus infection confirmed by a polymerase chain reaction of the amniotic fluid or fetal blood samples who underwent at least one intrauterine transfusion. The maternal characteristics, sonographic findings and parameters related to intrauterine transfusion were compared between the two groups (recovery/non-recovery), who were categorized based on fetal response after in-utero transfusions. Progression to fetal death or delivery without fetal recovery after the transfusions was considered nonrecovery and categorized as an adverse outcome. Results The final analysis included ten singleton pregnancies: seven of which were categorized into the recovery group and three of which into the non-recovery group. The baseline characteristics were similar between the groups. All fetuses were hydropic at the time of diagnosis. No significant differences related to sonographic or intrauterine transfusion parameters were identified between the groups; however, the nonrecovery group tended to have an increased number of sonographic markers and lower fetal hemoglobin and platelet levels before the transfusion. Conclusion We were unable to firmly establish the clinical or sonographic parameters associated with adverse fetal outcomes in patients with parvovirus infection managed with intrauterine transfusions; however, edema, placental thickening and oligohydramnios may indicate greater fetal compromise and, subsequently, adverse outcomes. However, further studies are necessary, mainly due to the small number of cases analyzed in the present study.

title: Physiotherapeutic intervention in pain and quality of life of women with rheumatoid arthritis. Case reports

description: ABSTRACT BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Rheumatoid arthritis is an autoimmune, chronic, idiopathic and inflammatory disease that symmetrically affects the tissues, organs and peripheral joints causing pain, swelling, stiffness and decreased the quality of life. The objective of this study was to confirm the effects of a physiotherapeutic intervention program on pain and quality of life of women with rheumatoid arthritis. CASE REPORTS: Study of a series of cases of five female patients, with average age ± 54 years. The initial assessment consisted of data collection, pain assessment by visual analog scale and evaluation of the quality of life by the Medical Outcomes Study36 Item Short-Form Health Survey SF-36. After the initial assessment, patients were subjected to a physiotherapeutic intervention program based on kinesiotherapy, which was conducted in groups, consisting of two sessions per week and duration of 50 minutes per session, totaling 10 sessions. The pain showed no statistically significant results when analyzed by the visual analog scale. However, when assessing the quality of life related to pain and vitality, there were statistically significant results (p≤0.05) in post-intervention. CONCLUSION: The proposed intervention program has been effective in improving the pain and vitality domains regarding the analysis of the quality of life in women with rheumatoid arthritis.

title: Avaliação do Padrão de Consumo de Bens e Serviços de Saúde: Uma Abordagem de Equilíbrio Geral Computável para a Economia Brasileira

description: The Brazilian population is experiencing transitions resulting from changes in the levels of mortality and fertility. One implication of this process is the increase in life expectancy, a fact which directly reﬂects the individual's consumption pattern. In this context, this paper aims to analyze the impact of changes in household preferences toward health goods and services, on macroeconomic indicators and welfare, according to a General Equilibrium approach. The main finding shows that changes in preferences and prices toward health goods imply a rise in income to compensate the consumer for price changes.
