title: Comparison of beriberi cases in indigenous and non-indigenous people, Brazil, 2013 to 2018

description: Abstract Beriberi is the clinical manifestation of severe and prolonged thiamine (vitamin B1) deficiency. It is a neglected disease that affects low-income populations facing food and nutrition insecurity. The aim of this study was to compare cases of beriberi among indigenous and non-indigenous people in Brazil. We conducted a cross-sectional study using data on cases of beriberi during the period July 2013-September 2018 derived from beriberi notification forms available on the FormSUS platform. Cases in indigenous and non-indigenous patients were compared using the chi-squared test or Fisher’s exact test, adopting a significance level of 0.05. A total of 414 cases of beriberi were reported in the country during the study period, 210 of which (50.7%) were among indigenous people. Alcohol consumption was reported by 58.1% of the indigenous patients and 71.6% of the non-indigenous patients (p = 0.004); 71.0% of the indigenous patients reported that they consumed caxiri, a traditional alcoholic drink. Daily physical exertion was reported by 76.1% of the indigenous patients and 40.2% of the non-indigenous patients (p &lt; 0.001). It is concluded that beriberi disproportionately affects indigenous people and is associated with alcohol consumption and physical exertion.

title: Digital health and the platformization of the Brazilian Government

description: Abstract The implementation of digital health constitutes an enormous challenge to Public Health, making it imperative to call for an urgent debate regarding the more immediate impacts of digital technologies on health policies. Digital health involves the incorporation of new technologies and potentially reconfigures the relationship between Government and society, in a process known as platformization - of health services management through the interpretation of a huge volume of data. This work provides a historic overview of Brazilian digital health information policies and analyzes digital health as a case of platformization of the Brazilian Government. For this reason, this work analyzes the Brazilian digital health strategy from three dimensions: data concentration, users/consumers, and the privatization of public infrastructure. Lastly, this work seeks to highlight the global trend in favor of an innovation that conceals the expectation for digitalization as a driver of the reproduction of capitalism.

title: Obesogenic behavior clusters associated with weight status among Brazilian students: a latent class analysis

description: Abstract This study aimed to examine the association between clusters of physical activity (PA), diet, and television viewing (TV) with weight status among a representative sample of Brazilian students. Data from the National Health School-based Survey (PeNSE) 2015 were analyzed (n = 16,521; mean age 14.8, standard deviation 0.03 year). PA (minutes/week spent in leisure-time, and commuting to/from school), TV (hours/day), and weekly consumption of deep-fried empanadas, candies, sodas, ultra-processed foods, fast foods, green salads or vegetables, and fruits were self-reported on the validated PeNSE questionnaire. Latent class analysis defined behavior classes, and binary logistic regression assessed the association between clustering and weight status. Six classes’ types with positive and negative behaviors were identified. Adolescents belonging to the “low TV time and high healthy diet” class had higher chances of being overweight (including obesity) compared to their peers in the “moderate PA and mixed diet” class. No associations were found in the other clusters. Mixed classes with healthy and unhealthy behaviors characterized adolescents’ lifestyles and these profiles were related to weight status.

title: Social inequalities in male cancer in a metropolis in the Southeast region of Brazil

description: ABSTRACT OBJECTIVE To analyze inequalities in incidence, mortality, and estimated survival for neoplasms in men according to social vulnerability. METHODS Analysis of cases and deaths of all neoplasms and the five most common in men aged 30 years or older in the city of Campinas (SP), between 2010 and 2014, using data from the Population-Based Cancer Registry (RCBP) and the Mortality Information System (SIM). The areas of residence were grouped into five social vulnerability strata (SVS) using São Paulo Social Vulnerability Index. For each SVS, age-standardized incidence and mortality rates were calculated. A five-year survival proxy was calculated by complementing the ratio of the mortality rate to the incidence rate. Inequalities between strata were measured by the ratios between rates, the relative inequality index (RII) and the angular inequality index (AII). RESULTS RII revealed that the incidence of all neoplasms (0.66, 95%CI 0.62–0.69) and colorectal and lung cancers were lower among the most socially vulnerable, who presented a higher incidence of stomach and oral cavity cancer. Mortality rates for stomach, oral cavity, prostate and all types of cancer were higher in the most vulnerable segments, with no differences in mortality for colorectal and lung cancer. Survival was lower in the most social vulnerable stratum for all types of cancer studied. AII showed excess cases in the least vulnerable and deaths in the most vulnerable. Social inequalities were different depending on the tumor location and the indicator analyzed. CONCLUSION There is a trend of reversal of inequalities between incidence-mortality and incidence-survival, and the most social vulnerable segment presents lower survival rates for the types of cancer, pointing to the existence of inequality in access to early diagnosis and effective and timely treatment.

title: Effects and productive performance of urban agriculture on collective and environmental health in the city of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil

description: Abstract Urban agriculture may help promote key indicators, such as improvement of environmental health and food security and reduction of social inequality. The present article aims to help understand the current situation of urban agriculture in the city of Rio de Janeiro by focusing on the Hortas Cariocas Program (HCP). To this end, two approaches were adopted. The first one was qualitative and based on a descriptive exploratory method that was used to survey and analyze the impacts caused by the program on the communities involved. The second one was quantitative and based on data envelopment analysis (DEA), which was used to assess and understand the program’s productive performance from 2007 to 2019. The program’s performance showed two peaks, one in 2012 with 80.21% and the other one in 2016 with 100.00% of the productive performance score. The behavior of the annual performance scores can be explained by the increases in the number of people who got directly involved (number of producers) and in the occupied area (number of seedbeds), as they reflect the socio-environmental character of the HCP.

title: FIXATION METHODS IN LATARJET: BIOMECHANICAL COMPARISON OF SCREW TYPES AND PLATE FIXATION

description: ABSTRACT Objective Latarjet procedure is often preferred in recurrent shoulder dislocations accompanied by glenoid bone loss. It is observed that the superiority of bone graft fixation methods is still controversial. The aim of this study is to biomechanically compare the bone graft fixation methods in the Latarjet procedure. Methods 15 third-generation scapula bone models were divided into 3 groups. Graft was fixated in the first group with fully-threaded cortical screws of 3.5mm diameter, in the second group two 16 mm partially-threaded cannulated screws of 4.5mm diameter, and in the third group via a mini plate and screw. The hemispherical humeral head was placed on the tip of the cyclic charge device, and thus, the charge applied to the coracoid graft was homogeneous. Results No statistically significant difference was found between paired comparisons (p&gt;0.05). The forces in 5 mm displacement in total vary between 502-857N. Total stiffness measurements ranged between 105 and 625; the mean value was 258.13±53.54 with no statistically significant difference by groups (p = 0.958). Conclusion This biomechanical study showed that there is no difference between three coracoid fixation options in terms of fixation strength. Unlike previous assumptions, plate fixation is not biomechanically superior to screw fixation. Surgeons should consider their personal preferences and experience in choosing fixation methods.

title: APPLICATION OF ENERGY EFFICIENCY EVALUATION METHODS FOR COMMERCIAL BUILDINGS IN AGRIBUSINESS

description: ABSTRACT Agribusiness and commerce are two major sectors that consume electricity. Agribusiness can generate energy but not enough to meet its needs. Thus, energy efficiency is fundamental for the sector’s sustainability. This study aimed to apply PROCEL energy evaluation methods in a Brazilian agribusiness company, specifically in the meat retail sector, located in the Alta Paulista region. This research has a quantitative approach, and PROCEL’s RTQ-C manual, bibliographical research on the energy issue, and the functioning of the company’s environment were used. The commercial establishment received the B classification index, which can be considered good but has several points of improvement, mainly on air conditioning, which provides better energy efficiency to the company. Therefore, the company can obtain economic and environmental returns by improving such areas, and the present research serves as a basis for evaluating energy efficiency in other companies in the same sector.

title: Modeling multivariate time series with copulas: Implications for pricing revenue insurance

description: Much of the soybean produced in Brazil is exported and, consequently, the domestic soybean price (R$) is greatly influenced by the price traded at the Chicago Mercantile Exchange Group (CME Group) (US$). Therefore, to model the dependency structure between soybean yield and price, the exchange rate must be incorporated into the modeling. This study aims to model the dependency structure between these three variables using the Copula methodology, calculate the crop revenue insurance rates, and compare with the rates offered in the insurance market. The rates applied by the Brazilian insurance market are overpriced when compared to the methodology presented in this study with the incorporation of the dollar rate in the modeling, which could increase the problem of adverse selection exchange and hamper massification of agricultural insurance in the Brazilian territory.
