title: Effects of multidisciplinary rehabilitation programs on treatment of patients with Alzheimer’s disease: a systematic review

description: Abstract Background Alzheimer's Disease (AD) is characterized by a progressive loss of cognitive functions, such as memory, learning and language deficits, which tend to be aggravated by the progression of the disease. Multidisciplinary actions in the patient with AD aim to positively interfere in the health-disease process, through an integral approach to individuals and families, intervening with actions focused on the reality in which they are inserted. Objective Conduct a systematic review of the literature investigating the effects of multidisciplinary rehabilitation programs on patients with Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Method A searches was conducted in the Medline, LILACS, Scielo, PEDro, and CINAHL databases with no restriction regarding language and year of publication. The articles were evaluated by title, abstract, and full text and, finally selected according to eligibility by two independent authors. The methodological quality of the experimental studies was evaluated using the PEDro scale. Results Five studies of moderate methodological quality were included in the present systematic review. Results showed that multidisciplinary programs may be effective in the treatment of AD patients, with significant improvements mainly in neuropsychiatric symptoms, depression, and quality of life. For the other outcome measures investigated, because few studies with positive effects (stress level, anxiety, autonomy, and activity) or conflicting results (cognition) were found, it was not possible to determine the effectiveness of this intervention. Conclusion This systematic review has shown that multidisciplinary programs can be effective in the treatment of patients with AD, with significant improvements mainly in neuropsychiatric symptoms, depression, and quality of life; however, results regarding cognition, levels of anxiety and stress, autonomy, and performance of activities were neither significant nor conflicting.

title: Spatial analysis of tuberculosis cases and association with socioeconomic factors: an experience in the city of Rio de Janeiro

description: Abstract Background Tuberculosis is an endemic disease in several countries, and its occurrence is related to situations of worse socioeconomic status. Objective To analyze spatial distribution of tuberculosis in the city of Rio de Janeiro in 2006 and the association between occurrence of the disease and the socioeconomic indicators. Method Patient's census tract of residence was georeferenced from the address registered in SINAN. Intensity of cases was estimated using the Kernel estimator (KDE) and association between the socioeconomic variables and existence of at least one case of tuberculosis in the census tracts was evaluated through logistic regression. Results The final database presented 3089 new non-institutionalized cases of tuberculosis. High concentration of cases was identified along the north district, with some points in the south district of the city. Along the west district, a range of points was observed from Magalhães Bastos to Santa Cruz and Sepetiba. Intensity of cases was higher in the most deprived areas. The following variables remained in the final model: percentage of permanent private households whose responsible person had a monthly income of 3-5 minimum wages and percentage of rented households. Conclusion Spatial analysis identified areas of high concentration of cases of tuberculosis coinciding with the most deprived areas. The poor quality of address registration was the main limitation of this study.

title: Physical activity patterns in adults: prevalence and associated factors

description: Abstract Background Insufficient practice of physical activity associated with some factors related to life habits increase the risk of non-transmissible chronic diseases and reduce quality of life. Objective Identify the pattern of physical activity and associated factors in adults aged ≥20 years. Method A cross-sectional, population survey conducted with 600 individuals. Data on demographic, socioeconomic and behavioral aspects, work, and physical activities were collected through home interviews. Descriptive, bivariate and Poisson regression analyses were performed. Results Prevalence of insufficient physical activity was 35.0% (95% CI: 31.2-38.9). Zero to four years of schooling [PR=2.35; 95% CI: 1.07-5.15], working in sitting position [PR=1.52; 95% CI: 1.02-2.48], and number of days at the computer [PR=4.60; 95% CI: 2.38-14.28] remained in the final model for females, whereas 0-4 years [PR=2.30; 95% CI: 1.21-4.06] or 5-8 years [PR=3.70; 95% CI: 0.79-4.00] of schooling, working in sitting position [PR=2.22 95% CI: 1.36-3.62], number of days at the computer [PR=2.04; 95% CI: 1.26-3.32], and number of days of TV viewing [PR=2.12; 95% CI: 1.03-4.36] remained in the final model for males. Conclusion High prevalence of insufficient practice of physical activity is associated with schooling, working in sitting position, and number of days at the computer and TV viewing.

title: Elaboration and verification of the validity and reliability of a nutrition literacy instrument among people with diabetes

description: Abstract Background The literacy about nutrition of people with diabetes is important since healthy eating can improve the life quality of these people. Objective The objective of this study was to create an instrument called “Nutrition Literacy among people with Diabetes (NLD)” and evaluate its validity, reliability and interpretability. Method Methodological study with verification of content validity; pre-test; reliability estimation (internal consistency: Cronbach's alpha; reproducibility: kappa-K, Intraclass Correlation Coefficient - ICC); estimation of the validity of concurrent criterion and interpretability made by counting the correct words associations with scores from 0 to 24 (cut ≤ 18) and hypothesis test in sample for infinite population through logistic regression p≤0.05; (OR / CI 95%). Results The content validity was satisfactory. Reliability (alpha = 0.68, K≥0.60 and CCI = 0.68) was good. Regarding the concurrent validity, a correlation between NLD and schooling (rs = 0.88, p = 0.000) was found. From the 212 participants, 75.8% presented NLD&gt; 18. In the hypothesis test, it was found that the higher the schooling, the higher the NLD (1.20 / 1.09-1.31); the NLD was lower among men (0.50 / 0.25-1.01). Conclusion The NLD was considered valid, reliable and easy to interpret, and it could be used in future research or even in health services that provide assistance to people with diabetes.

title: Assessment of social disablement among individuals living in therapeutic residential services in a small municipality of Rio de Janeiro state

description: Abstract Background Knowledge about the extent of social disablement among people with severe mental disorders living in therapeutic residential services is crucial for policy makers and mental health professionals involved in the delivery of community-base care. A cross-sectional study was conducted with people living in therapeutic residential services in the municipality of Carmo, Rio de Janeiro state, Brazil. Objective Evaluate limitations of the social behavior of the interviewees through the Social Behavior Scale (SBS). Method Data were collected between January and February 2017 using the SBS. Results The sample was composed mostly of men from Rio de Janeiro state, with mean age of 60.4 years, illiterate, benefit recipients, with schizophrenia and other psychotic disorders and a long period of previous hospitalization with no contact with their families. Approximately 96% of them showed at least one social behavior problem, often related to poor self-care, little spontaneous communication (Does the person start a conversation?), slowness, laughing and talking to self, and other problems (any other behavior or attitude not previously specified that seem to be delaying the progress of the person). Conclusion This population presented high frequency of social disablement that may prevent their social reintegration, evidencing the need for implementing social rehabilitation programs.

title: Pregnancy and drugs: what healthcare do women want?

description: Abstract Background The use of psychoactive substances has increased among women, surrounded by discrimination, frustrations, and violations of rights. This theme is on the debate agenda of the current policies on women’s mental health in Brazil, immersed in tensions facing new public funding proposals. Objective The aim of this study was to describe, from the perspective of women users of psychoactive substances, the characteristics desired for prenatal care. Method In a university extension activity articulated to a Brazilian formative program called PET-Networks of Care, this exploratory, qualitative, field study was conducted with 19 women users of psychoactive substances through the application of a questionnaire and a semi-structured interview. Results The results revealed dissonance between the health cared received and the one expected. The latter is in line with a dialogical and integral perspective, as planned by the SUS. Women’s reports show the presence of social stigma, which is a challenge to be faced. Conclusion The health care for pregnant women users of psychoactive substances needs to assume a dialogic, integral, and multifaceted perspective, and the fight against social stigma becomes urgent. Further studies in this area are suggested.

title: Public interest in health: contributions to an ethical-political agenda

description: Abstract Background The legal expression 'public interest' has been often used in health debates, especially in related legislation; however, there is still a conceptual imprecision surrounding this theme, which requires contextualization. Objective This study aimed to analyze the meanings attributed to the term 'public interest', in the health context, in publications of the journal Saúde em Debate , linked to the Brazilian Center for Health Studies (CEBES). Method Qualitative study conducted through documentary search from 1985 to 2000. Results Redemocratization and social justice are the central themes discussed by authors regarding Public Interest. Conclusion In view of the challenges faced in the current Brazilian political scenario, reflection on public interest in health should go beyond the limits of democracy, and it is necessary to discuss the roles of the State, Government, and Civil Society, as well as to overcome the condition of the subalternity assumed by the Brazilian population before the State.

title: Quality of the notifications of interpersonal and self-inflicted violence in the state of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, 2009-2016

description: Abstract Background Data from Health Information Systems are widely used for the production of knowledge. For their effective use, however, it is essential to ensure that they are valid and reliable. Objective Evaluate the quality of reports of violence in the state of Rio de Janeiro aiming to contribute to the improvement of information. Method Ecological study on the consistency of notifications of violence recorded to the Information System on Diseases of Compulsory Declaration in the state of Rio de Janeiro from 2009 to 2016. The temporal trend of the proportions of inconsistencies, for each group of related fields, was evaluated by simple linear regression and its statistical significance ( p≤0.05). Results During the study period, 103,841 cases of violence were reported, but in 31.7% of them it was not possible to identify whether they were interpersonal or self-inflicted. The main inconsistencies were incongruence between psychological violence and aggression, gender identity and sex, type of violence and age of the victim, self-inflicted violence and characteristics of the aggressor and type of violence; most of them presented stability in the period ( p&gt;0.05). Conclusion The results show significant inconsistencies in the reports of violence that compromise the use of this information.
