title: Clinical competencies of students in urgent and emergency care: evolutive analysis through OSCE

description: Abstract: Introduction: One of the major challenges in evaluating medical education is measuring practical skills, crossing the limits of theoretical knowledge. The Objective Structured Clinical Examination (OSCE) is an alternative for active and standardized assessment of clinical competencies. Despite its growing implementation, longitudinal studies that support its evaluative potential are still scarce. Objective: To analyze the learning curve of medical students based on continuous assessment of their OSCE exams and individual performances within the discipline of Urgent and Emergency Care. Method: This retrospective study is based on the analysis of data taken from assessment checklists from three consecutive OSCEs applied to sixth-year Brazilian medical students within the Urgent and Emergency Care program of the 2019 academic year. Result: 270 assessment sheets from a total of 90 students were analyzed. The group was made up of 51 females (56.7 percentage points) and 69 of the students (or 76.7 percentage points) were aged between 23 and 26 years old. Between the first and third OSCE, 67 students (74.4 percentage points) increased their final grade, the median of which increased by an average of 1.5 points. Of the four medical components evaluated - conduct, recognition, interaction and follow-up - there was an improvement of 15.5 percentage points in correct conduct, zero impact on the results concerning recognition and drops of 19.4 and 16.1 percentage points in the areas of communication and follow-up, respectively. Conclusion: The study points to an increasing curve in OSCE scores, suggesting an increase in general learning in Urgent and Emergency Care over the course of the year. However, careful analysis of the components reveals different performance curves. Since it is not possible to presume the causes of these counterpoints, further studies in the area are suggested.

title: Impacts of mindfulness-based interventions in people undergoing hemodialysis: a systematic review

description: Abstract Introduction: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a serious public health problem worldwide, leading to a series of physical and psychological comorbidities, in addition to costly treatments, lifestyle and dietary restrictions. There is evidence that mindfulness-based interventions (MBIs) offer complementary treatment for people with chronic illnesses, including CKD, with the aim of improving overall health, reducing side effects and treatment costs. This review aims to investigate the MBIs impact on people with CKD undergoing hemodialysis, and to identify the methodological quality of the current literature in order to support future studies. Methods: We ran searches in five databases (MEDLINE via PubMed, PsycINFO, Embase, Web of Science and Scopus) in July 2020. The papers were selected and evaluated by two reviewers independently, using predefined criteria, including the Cochrane Group's risk of bias tool and its recommendations (CRD42020192936). Results: Of the 175 studies found, 6 randomized controlled trials met the inclusion criteria, and ranged from 2014 to 2019. There were significant improvements in symptoms of anxiety, depression, self-efficacy, sleep quality, and quality of life (n=3) in the groups submitted to the intervention, in addition to physical measures such as blood pressure, heart rate and respiratory rate (n=1). Conclusions: MBIs can offer a promising and safe complementary therapy for people with CKD undergoing hemodialysis, acting on quality of life and physical aspects of the disease.

title: Work organization and risks of illness in the professional practice of doctors

description: Abstract The work context is a risk factor for the illness of many professionals, among which the medical profession is highlighted. Thus, this study aimed to identify the risks of illness related to the work context of doctors, in the light of Psychodynamics at Work. One hundred and two professionals participated, who responded to the Work Context Assessment Scales, Indicators of Pleasure and Suffering at Work and Work-Related Damage. The results, based on descriptive and inferential statistics, demonstrated a moderate risk of illness related to the work context, professional exhaustion and physical damage. Work organization was strongly associated with “professional burnout” and “lack of recognition”. It is concluded, therefore, that there is a need for greater attention to the organization of work by the medical profession.

title: Pain Portrait: a way to understand individual suffering

description: Abstract This study aims to verify the suffering associated with chronic pain through the projective instrument "Pain Portrait”. It is a descriptive study carried out with 126 patients with chronic pain of different etiologies. Responses were analyzed according to the Bardin content analysis method and statistical tests. Patients were found: who believe that no suffering compares to their pain (34.9%); Who compare their pain to other pains or diseases already experienced (16.6%); And those who compare pain to situations of emotional distress (48.4%). This study showed that emotional aspects play an important role in how the individual will interpret and use his or her own resources to deal with their pain.

title: Evaluation intervening factors in the performance of water treatment plants

description: ABSTRACT The objective of this work was to evaluate the influence of seasonality, possible hydraulic overload, size, cost, and age of the station in the performance of conventional water treatment stations based on reliability analysis as an evaluation tool. For this purpose, operational data of the effluent from 20 stations operated by the same provider for the 2009–2014 period were used. Statistical analyses showed that the performance was increased in the dry season compared to the rainy one and in the small units evaluated. In the same scenario, almost all the stations submitted to hydraulic overload exhibit inferior performance. The determination of turbidity range required at the exit of the station, through the reliability analysis, proved to be an important management tool, allowing to hierarchize improvement actions in the systems. In addition, there was no correlation between the level of reliability and the treatment cost and the age of the station.

title: Comparative study of bio-oils obtained by fast and slow pyrolysis of peach stone

description: ABSTRACT The processing of pickled peaches generates the peach stone as an agro-industrial residue that is difficult to dispose of. Thus, the woody endocarp pyrolysis technique is an efficient treatment for converting biomass into value-added products. Among the products, bio-oil is composed of two immiscible phases (organic and aqueous), with potential to supply the production of chemical products in different industrial sectors. The objective of this study was to obtain and evaluate the constitution of the organic phase of the bio-oils based on the fast (quartz reactor) and slow (stainless steel reactor) pyrolysis of the woody endocarp, both with fixed bed at 700°C, thus evidencing the influence of processes in the constitution of the obtained bio-oils. As liquid fractions, they were derived with N-methyl-N-trimethylsilyltrifluoracetamide for further characterization in gas chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry. Through the methodology employed, a total of 59 and 41 compounds were detected in the organic phases of the fast and slow pyrolysis bio-oils, respectively; Phenols are the majority, with 59.9 and 67.2% by weight, where the methoxyphenol (fast) and cresols (slow) are the predominant compounds. It is concluded that the derivatization stage and the gas chromatography/mass spectrometry technique were satisfactory for the qualitative and semi-quantitative characterization of bio-oils, which they can potentially use as a source of chemical products and to benefit from reuse of residue.

title: Sewage monitoring as a surveillance epidemiological tool for COVID-19 control: a case study in the city of Belo Horizonte

description: ABSTRACT The recent detection of SARS-CoV-2 RNA in stool and sewage samples highlights the possibility of mapping the circulation of the virus and even estimating the number of infected people through the systematic monitoring of sewage in a specific region. Therefore, this is an important epidemiological tool for large-scale indirect testing, including symptomatic and asymptomatic carriers. This project was conceived for the detection and quantification of the SARS-CoV-2 in sewage samples collected in 15 watersheds of the Arrudas and Onça streams, aiming to understand the dynamics of spread and the prevalence of the virus in these regions/watersheds. These sub-basins exhaust the effluents generated by a population of approximately 1.5 million people in the municipality of Belo Horizonte and part of Contagem. Weekly composite samples were collected during the morning periods in seventeen monitoring points (15 water sheds + influent to 2 sewage treatment plants). RNA detection and quantification were performed in the laboratory using RT-qPCR. The results obtained in four weeks of monitoring (epidemiological weeks 21 to 24) showed an increase in the occurrence of the virus, reaching 100% of the monitored regions investigated in epidemiological week 24. The infected population, estimated by sewage monitoring in Belo Horizonte, showed exponential growth, being up to 20 times higher than those of accumulated confirmed cases. As for the dynamics of virus spread, RNA concentrations have shown to be quite variable in the monitored regions with higher percentages of the estimated infected population in the northern and north-eastern portions of Belo Horizonte.

title: Cephalometric changes during aging in subjects with normal occlusion

description: Abstract Objective To assess craniofacial changes from early adulthood to the seventh decade of life in individuals with normal occlusion. Methodology The sample comprised lateral cephalograms of 21 subjects with normal occlusion (11 male, 10 female), taken at 17 (T1) and 61 years of age (T2). Anteroposterior and vertical maxillomandibular relationships, and dentoalveolar and soft tissue changes were analyzed. Interphase comparisons were performed using paired t-tests. Differences between sexes, and subgroups with and without tooth loss were evaluated using t-tests (p&lt;0.05). Results Maxillary and mandibular anterior displacement, and facial and ramus height increased from T1 to T2. Maxillary molars showed significant mesial angulation. Maxillary and mandibular molars, and mandibular incisors developed vertically during the evaluation period. Soft tissue changes included a decrease of the nasolabial angle, upper and lower lip retrusion, decrease of upper lip thickness and increase of the lower lip and soft chin thickness. Maxillary incisor exposure by the upper lip decreased 3.6 mm in 40 years. Males presented counterclockwise rotation of the mandible, whereas females showed mandibular clockwise rotation and backward displacement of the chin. The group with tooth loss showed a greater increase of the posterior facial height and ramus height. Conclusion We observed aging changes in dentoskeletal structures and soft tissue, as well as sexual differences for craniofacial changes during the maturational process. Subjects with multiple tooth losses showed a greater increase in mandibular ramus height.
