title: Profile of re-entry cases after abandonment of treatment of tuberculosis in Salvador, Bahia, Brazil

description: Abstract Background Tuberculosis is still a major public health problem and has been worrying health authorities. Tuberculosis is directly related to social determinants, a fact that has been involving governments with intersectoral actions to reduce the vulnerability of the population to health. Objective To describe the profile of re-entry cases after abandonment of tuberculosis treatment in the city of Salvador, Bahia, from 2006 to 2015, comprising sociodemographic, clinical and behavioral factors of the individuals. Method This is a descriptive and exploratory spatio-temporal ecological study performed through secondary data available in the Brazilian Notifiable Diseases Information System. The data obtained were stored and consolidated for calculation of the absolute and relative frequency variables, re-entry incidence rate after abandonment, and Spearman correlation. Then, the information obtained was used to make graphs and tables. Results There were 1,611 re-entry cases with predominance of males, 30 to 49 years old, self-declared brown skin color, and the level of complete fundamental education, with tuberculosis presenting as pulmonary and HIV negative. The health districts of Cabula/Beiru, Subúrbio Ferroviário, and São Caetano/Valéria presented higher incidence rates. Conclusion The profile found is consistent with the individuals with the highest incidence rates of the disease, as well as higher rates of tuberculosis mortality throughout the country. The education level of the individual was presented as a crucial factor for greater re-entry to treatment.

title: Development and validation of an instrument to evaluate the aspects that influence exam request

description: Abstract Background Exams are part of the health system, and they contribute to the advancement of care. The request of exams by physicians must be performed properly, and can be influenced by different aspects. Objective Develop and validate an instrument to evaluate aspects that influence the request for exams. Method This is a cross-sectional, analytical study conducted in the following steps: 1) Identification of the aspects that influence the request for exams in medical practice; 2) Verification of apparent and content validity; 3) Verification of construct validity; 4) Reliability analysis; 5) Verification of discriminant validity applied to 158 family and emergency physicians in the north of Minas Gerais state. Results The instrument was composed of 36 psychometrically valid items grouped into five dimensions: particularity of the physician, structure and processes of the health system, characteristics of the patient, professional expertise, and difficulty conducting the exam. The instrument presented apparent and content validity, construct validity, satisfactory level of reliability, and discriminant validity. Conclusion The instrument to assess aspects that influence the request of exams in medical practice can identify the particular influence of each aspect and each dimension that interferes with the practice of requesting exams.

title: Radiological findings of breast involvement in benign and malignant systemic diseases

description: Abstract Although the primary purpose of periodic mammograms in screening programs is to identify lesions suspected of being carcinomas, the findings are often related to systemic (benign or malignant) diseases, rather than breast cancer. Although the involvement of breast structures in systemic diseases is unusual, it can be included in the differential diagnosis of masses, skin changes, calcifications, asymmetry, and axillary lymphadenopathy. The main diagnostic entities that can be associated with such involvement are diabetes, chronic kidney disease, heart diseases, connective tissue diseases, HIV infection, lymphoma, leukemia, and metastases from primary tumors at other sites. In many cases, information related to knowledge and treatment of chronic diseases is not available to the radiologist at the time of evaluation of the mammography findings. The purpose of this essay is to offer relevant pictorial information to the general radiologist about systemic diseases involving the breast, expanding the range of differential diagnoses in order to avoid unnecessary invasive procedures.

title: Efecto de acciones de equipos de Atención Primaria de Salud para proteger la salud mental después de desastres naturales

description: Resumen Introducción Existe alta prevalencia de alteraciones emocionales en la población expuesta a desastres y los centros de atención primaria de salud (APS) podrían contribuir a su prevención. Objetivo Analizar asociaciones post-catástrofe entre variables de APS y variables de salud mental de la población. Método Estudio efectuado en Chile un año después de un terremoto de 8,8° Richter. Se aplicó un cuestionario de intensidad de acciones de salud mental en 16 centros APS y las escalas GHQ-12 y SF-36 para malestar psicológico y calidad de vida en una muestra basada en hogares y otra de consultantes a APS. Se efectuó un análisis de regresión lineal múltiple para las dos poblaciones y los dos instrumentos. Resultados Ninguna de las variables sobre intensidad de acciones de APS mostró relación con GHQ-12 o SF-36 en ambas muestras. Las variables asociadas significativamente a mayor puntaje en GHQ-12 y menor puntaje en SF-36 fueron sexo femenino, baja escolaridad, baja situación económica, menor apoyo social y daños producidos por el terremoto. Conclusión El equipo APS podría lograr un mayor efecto preventivo post-catástrofe trabajando con otros sectores que incluyan la dimensión salud mental en el abordaje de los problemas sociales críticos en situaciones de desastres, y reservando el trabajo preventivo directo para las personas con alta vulnerabilidad psicológica.

title: Factors associated to excellent work ability of aged public servants from a university in southern Brazil

description: Abstract Objective: to investigate the association between work ability index and socio-demographic, occupational, lifestyle and health factors in aged people. Methods: cross-sectional study, with aged public servants from a higher education institution. Sociodemographic information and data on social behavior, health, and work were collected. Uni and multivariate analysis according to the logistic regression model was used to determine the factors associated with excellent work ability. Results: the sample showed a prevalence of men (57.8%), between 60 and 64 years (75.6%), with higher education (57.8%). Most claimed being sedentary (89.1%) and having mental work demands (62.8%). More than half of the sample was of overweight aged people (53%) who reported falls (21.3%) and regular use of multiple medications (25.6%). The variables associated with less chance of excellent work ability were female (OR=0.39; CI95%=0.18-0.83); non-white color (OR=0.37; CI95%=0.16-0.84); physical demand for the job (OR=0.40; CI95%=0.17-0.97); hospitalization (OR=0.14; CI95%=0.03-0.57); sleep difficulties (OR=0.12; CI95%=0.04-0.43); self-perception of poor health (OR=0.22; CI95%=0.09-0.54); complaints of musculoskeletal symptoms in the last 7 days (OR=0.29, CI95%=0.10-0.87); and symptoms that affect work (OR=0.25; CI95%=0.08-0.82). Conclusion: sociodemographic and occupational factors, as well as health conditions jeopardize aged people’s excellent work ability.

title: Validation of a measuring instrument for the perception of oral health in women

description: The aim of this study was to estimate the reliability, validity and factorial invariance of the Portuguese version of the Geriatric/General Oral Health Assessment Index (GOHAI) as applied to Brazilian women. A total 701 women over 18 years of age participated in this study. Telephone interviews were conducted. We evaluated the construct-related validity through factorial, convergent and discriminant validity. We carried out a confirmatory factor analysis using the χ2/df, CFI, GFI and RMSEA indexes. The invariance of the model in a second independent sample was estimated by multi-group analysis and internal consistency using Cronbach’s alpha coefficient. Items 5 and 9 presented factor weights below the adequate value and were removed. The three-dimensional and unifactorial model presented an adequate fit. We observed strong factorial invariance of the models in two independent samples (three-factor: ρλ = 0.62; pCov = 0.89, one-factor: ρλ = 0.81; pCov = 0.68) and weak factorial invariance between users and nonusers of dental prosthetics (three-factor: ρλ = 0.55; pCov = 0.01, one-factor: ρλ = 0.51; pCov = 0.02). The convergent validity was suboptimal. Internal consistency was adequate. The GOHAI applied to the study sample showed adequate reliability, factorial validity and stability in independent samples and between users and nonusers of dental prosthetics in both the three-dimensional and the unifactorial structures.

title: Strain analysis of different diameter Morse taper implants under overloading compressive conditions

description: The aim of this study was to evaluate the amount of deformation from compression caused by different diameters of Morse taper implants and the residual deformation after load removal. Thirty Morse taper implants lacking external threads were divided into 3 groups (n = 10) according to their diameter as follows: 3.5 mm, 4.0 mm and 5.0 mm. Two-piece abutments were fixed into the implants, and the samples were subjected to compressive axial loading up to 1500 N of force. During the test, one strain gauge remained fixed to the cervical portion of each implant to measure the strain variation. The strain values were recorded at two different time points: at the maximum load (1500 N) and 60 seconds after load removal. To calculate the strain at the implant/abutment interface, a mathematical formula was applied. Data were analyzed using a one-way Anova and Tukey’s test (α = 0.05). The 5.0 mm diameter implant showed a significantly lower strain (650.5 μS ± 170.0) than the 4.0 mm group (1170.2 μS ± 374.7) and the 3.5 mm group (1388.1 μS ± 326.6) (p &lt; 0.001), regardless of the load presence. The strain values decreased by approximately 50% after removal of the load, regardless of the implant diameter. The 5.0 mm implant showed a significantly lower strain at the implant/abutment interface (943.4 μS ± 504.5) than the 4.0 mm group (1057.4 μS ± 681.3) and the 3.5 mm group (1159.6 μS ± 425.9) (p &lt; 0.001). According to the results of this study, the diameter influenced the strain around the internal and external walls of the cervical region of Morse taper implants; all diameters demonstrated clinically acceptable values of strain.

title: Influence of cortical thickness on the stability of mini-implants with microthreads

description: The objective of this study was to assess the influence of cortical thickness and bone density on the insertion torque of a mini-implant (MI) with microthreads. Mini-implants with lengths of 6 and 8 mm in the active part were inserted into synthetic bone blocks (polyurethane resin). The density of these blocks was 20 pounds per cubic foot (pcf), simulating bone marrow, and that of blocks 1, 2, and 3-mm-thick blocks was 40 pcf, simulating cortical bone. Blocks with uniform density of 40 pcf were also used to simulate bone areas of greater density. Insertion torque was quantified with a universal testing machine (EMIC). For both MIs, increasing insertion torque was associated with increasing cortical bone thickness. For the same MI length, significant differences were observed among all assessed groups. The insertion torque of the 6-mm-long MI inserted in a 3-mm-thick cortical bone was equivalent to that of the 8-mm-long MI inserted in a 1-mm-thick cortical bone. MIs inserted in bone blocks of greater density presented insertion torque values almost twice as high as those in other groups. The shorter MI, the lower the insertion torque, and the greater the cortical bone thickness, the greater the insertion torque. To minimize fracture risk, the size of MI should be selected according to the insertion site.
