Abstract Objective To assess the efficacy, safety, and acceptability of misoprostol in the treatment of incomplete miscarriage. Data sources The PubMed, Scopus, Embase, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, and Clinical Trials databases (clinicaltrials.gov) were searched for the relevant articles, and search strategies were developed using a combination of thematic Medical Subject Headings terms and text words. The last search was conducted on July 4, 2022. No language restrictions were applied. Selection of studies Randomized clinical trials with patients of gestational age up to 6/7 weeks with a diagnosis of incomplete abortion and who were managed with at least 1 of the 3 types of treatment studied were included. A total of 8,087 studies were screened. Data collection Data were synthesized using the statistical package Review Manager V.5.1 (The Cochrane Collaboration, Oxford, United Kingdom). For dichotomous outcomes, the odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) were derived for each study. Heterogeneity between the trial results was evaluated using the standard test, I2 statistic. Data synthesis When comparing misoprostol with medical vacuum aspiration (MVA), the rate of complete abortion was higher in the MVA group (OR = 0.16; 95%CI = 0.07–0.36). Hemorrhage or heavy bleeding was more common in the misoprostol group (OR = 3.00; 95%CI = 1.96–4.59), but pain after treatment was more common in patients treated with MVA (OR = 0.65; 95%CI = 0.52–0.80). No statistically significant differences were observed in the general acceptability of the treatments. Conclusion Misoprostol has been determined as a safe option with good acceptance by patients.

Resumo Objetivo Avaliar a eficácia, segurança e aceitabilidade do misoprostol no tratamento do aborto incompleto. Fontes de dados Os bancos de dados PubMed, Scopus, Embase, Web of Science, Cochrane Library e bancos de dados de Ensaios Clínicos (clinicaltrials.gov) foram pesquisados para os artigos relevantes, e estratégias de busca foram desenvolvidas usando uma combinação de termos temáticos de Medical Subject Headings e palavras de texto. A última pesquisa foi realizada em 4 de julho de 2022. Nenhuma restrição de idioma foi aplicada. Seleção dos estudos Foram incluídos ensaios clínicos randomizados com pacientes com idade gestacional até 6/7 semanas com diagnóstico de aborto incompleto e que foram manejadas com pelo menos um dos três tipos de tratamento estudados. Um total de 8.087 estudos foram selecionados. Coleta de dados Os dados foram sintetizados usando o pacote estatístico Review Manager V.5.1 (The Cochrane Collaboration, Oxford, United Kingdom). Para resultados dicotômicos, o odds ratio (OR, na sigla em inglês) e o intervalo de confiança (IC) de 95% foram derivados para cada estudo. A heterogeneidade entre os resultados do ensaio foi avaliada usando o teste padrão, estatística I2. Síntese dos dados Ao comparar misoprostol com aspiração a vácuo médico (MVA, na sigla em inglês), a taxa de aborto completo foi maior no grupo MVA (OR = 0,16; IC95% = 0,07–0,36). Hemorragia ou sangramento intenso foi mais comum no grupo do misoprostol (OR = 3,00; 95%CI = 1,96–4,59), mas a dor após o tratamento foi mais comum em pacientes tratados com MVA (OR = 0,65; 95%CI = 0,52–0,80). Não foram observadas diferenças estatisticamente significativas na aceitabilidade geral dos tratamentos. Conclusão O misoprostol tem se mostrado uma opção segura e com boa aceitação pelos pacientes.

Abstract This article aims to discuss the subject of ethics in the context of public organizations, built on two main pillars: the Brazilian Federal Constitution and the legal framework of the Ethics Management System of the Federal Executive Power. To carry out their duties, public servants, in addition to technical qualifications, need political and ethical skills. This article is the result of a research that had the following objectives: to understand the meanings of ethics and public ethics for public servants and to identify the importance and difficulties for the exercise of ethics in the work process developed. This is an exploratory research using a qualitative approach. Information collection was carried out with semi-structured interviews, and the data collected analyzed by content analysis, in the thematic analysis mode. The research results supported reflections to help future decisions related to the studied topic, considering the objective of disseminating the importance of complying with the ethical precepts that should underpin the performance of public servants. The conclusive arguments support the need for a broad discussion of the topic of “Ethics” within the public reach and the urgency to promote postures aimed at improving relationships, reinforcing critical and reflective thoughts in the work process based on ethical imperatives.

Resumo O presente artigo aborda o tema da ética no contexto das organizações públicas, edificada em dois grandes pilares: a Constituição Federal Brasileira e o marco legal do Sistema de Gestão da Ética do Poder Executivo Federal. Para o exercício das funções, os servidores, além da qualificação técnica, necessitam de competências políticas e éticas. Este trabalho é resultante de pesquisa que teve como objetivos: compreender os sentidos da ética e da ética pública para servidores públicos e identificar a importância e as dificuldades para o exercício da ética no processo de trabalho desenvolvido. Trata-se de uma pesquisa exploratória com utilização de abordagem qualitativa. A coleta de dados foi realizada por meio de entrevista semiestruturada e os dados coletados foram analisados por meio da análise de conteúdo, na modalidade de análise temática. Os resultados da pesquisa subsidiaram reflexões para auxiliar futuras decisões relacionadas ao tema estudado, tendo em vista o intuito de disseminar a importância do cumprimento dos preceitos éticos que devem alicerçar a atuação dos servidores. Os argumentos conclusivos reforçam a necessidade de uma ampla discussão do tema “Ética” dentro da esfera pública e a urgência em fomentar posturas que visem à melhoria das relações, cimentando pensamentos críticos e reflexivos no processo de trabalho com base em imperativos éticos.

SUMMARY OBJECTIVE: The objective of this study was to determine adverse maternal and perinatal outcomes in pregnant women with hypertensive disorders of pregnancy. METHODS: An analytical cross-sectional study was conducted on women admitted with hypertensive disorders of pregnancies to a university maternity hospital from August 2020 to August 2022. Data were collected using a pretested structured questionnaire. Variables associated with adverse maternal and perinatal outcomes were compared using multivariable binomial regression. RESULTS: Of 501 women with pregnancies, 2, 35, 14, and 49% had eclampsia, preeclampsia, chronic hypertension, and gestational hypertension, respectively. Women with preeclampsia/eclampsia had significantly higher risks of cesarean section (79.4 vs. 65%; adjusted RR, 2,139; 95%CI, 1,386–3,302; p=0.001) and preterm delivery at <34 weeks’ gestation (20.5 vs. 6%; adjusted RR, 2.5; 95%CI, 1.19–5.25; p=0.01) than those of women with chronic/gestational hypertension. Risks of prolonged maternal hospitalization (43.9 vs. 27.1%), neonatal intensive care unit admission (30.7 vs. 19.8%), and perinatal mortality (23.5 vs. 11.2%) were higher among women with preeclampsia/eclampsia. CONCLUSIONS: Women with preeclampsia/eclampsia had a higher risk of adverse maternal and neonatal outcomes than those with chronic or gestational hypertension. This major maternity care center requires strategies for preventing and managing preeclampsia/eclampsia to improve pregnancy outcomes.

ABSTRACT Objective: to trace the clinical and epidemiological profile of penile cancer in Rio Grande do Norte/Brazil and relate them to data published in the literature. Methods: a cross-sectional study was conducted with 94 patients diagnosed with penile cancer in 2011-2018, treated at the Liga Norte Riograndense Contra o Cancer. Results: all patients were diagnosed with squamous cell carcinoma, mainly aged over 50 years, from the states interior, brown, illiterate, or with incomplete primary education. At diagnosis, 68% of patients were classified as having tumors =T2, and 30% had lymph node involvement. Distant metastases were detected in 2.1% of patients at diagnosis. Most patients received the diagnosis in the initial phase of the disease, but 20.2% were diagnosed in stage IV. Partial penectomy was the most performed surgery, and 10% of patients relapsed, mainly in the lymph nodes (87.5%). The mean follow-up of the patients was 18 months, with an estimated overall survival at five years of 59.1%. However, 25% of patients were followed up for up to 3 months, losing follow-up. Conclusion: the State of Rio Grande do Norte has a high incidence of penile cancer with a high frequency of locally advanced tumors at diagnosis and in younger patients younger than 50. Furthermore, socioeconomic factors interfere with early diagnosis and hinder access to specialized services.

RESUMO Objetivo: traçar o perfil clínico e epidemiológico do câncer de pênis no Rio Grande do Norte/Brazil e relacioná-los com dados publicados na literatura. Métodos: realizou-se estudo transversal de 94 pacientes diagnosticados com câncer de pênis no período de 2011-2018, tratados na Liga Norte Riograndense Contra o Câncer. Resultados: todos os pacientes foram diagnosticados com carcinoma espinocelular, principalmente com idade acima dos 50 anos, provenientes do interior do estado, pardos, analfabetos ou com ensino fundamental incompleto. Ao diagnóstico, 68% dos pacientes foram classificados com tumores =T2 e 30% possuiam envolvimento linfonodal. Metástases à distância foram detectadas em 2,1% dos pacientes ao diagnóstico. A maioria dos pacientes recebeu o diagnóstico na fase inicial da doença, mas 20,2% foram diagnosticados em estádio IV. Penectomia parcial foi a cirurgia mais realizada e 10% dos pacientes recidivaram, principalmente para linfonodos (87,5%). A média de seguimento dos pacientes foi de 18 meses, apresentando estimativa de sobrevida global em 5 anos de 59,1%. No entanto, 25% dos pacientes foram acompanhados por até 3 meses, perdendo o seguimento. Conclusão: o Estado do Rio Grande do Norte apresenta elevada incidência de câncer de pênis com alta frequência de tumores localmente avançados ao diagnóstico, assim como em pacientes mais jovens, menores que 50 anos de idade. Outrossim, o fator socioeconômico interfere no diagnóstico precoce e dificulta o acesso a serviços especializados. .

SUMMARY OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to evaluate and compare Maternal Near Miss prevalence and outcomes before and during the coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic. METHODS: This retrospective study was carried out in a university maternity hospital of high complexity. The population was divided into two groups: G1, 1 year before the coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic period (August 2018–July 2019) and G2, 1 year during the pandemic period (August 2020–July 2021). All pregnant/postpartum women hospitalized up to 42 days after the end of pregnancy/childbirth were included, and pregnant women who were admitted with coronavirus disease 2019/flu symptoms were excluded. The association of variables with “Maternal Near Miss” was estimated using logistic regression. RESULTS: A total of 568 women from G1 and 349 women from G2 fulfilled the Maternal Near Miss criteria. The prevalence of Maternal Near Miss in pre-pandemic was 144.1/1,000 live births and during the pandemic was 78.5/1,000 live births. In the analysis adjusted for G1, the factors of days of hospitalization (PR: 1.02, CI: 1.0–1.0, p<0.05), pre-eclampsia (PR: 0.41, CI: 1.4–2.2, p<0.05), and sepsis/severe systemic infection (PR: 1.79, CI: 0.3–0.4, p<0.05) were crucial for women with the Maternal Near Miss condition to have a greater chance of being admitted to the intensive care unit. In G2, low education (PR: 0.45, CI: 0.2–0.9, p<0.05), eclampsia (PR: 5.28, CI: 3.6–7.6, p<0.05), and use of blood products (PR: 6.48, CI: 4.7–8.8, p<0.05) increased the risk of admission to the intensive care unit. CONCLUSION: During the pandemic, there was a lower prevalence of Maternal Near Miss in high-risk pregnancies, fewer hospitalizations, and more deaths compared to the non-pandemic period.

SUMMARY OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the sexual function of women in the puerperal period after a postpartum pelvic floor musculature training program. We also sought to evaluate correlations between sexual dysfunction in the women and their delivery type and compare the frequency of sexual dysfunction and the quality of resumed sexual function following vaginal and cesarean deliveries. METHODS: This clinical study included an intervention, carried out between July and December 2019, in which data were collected about 28 rooming-in women at a Maternity School. Data were divided into vaginal delivery and cesarean delivery. Sexual function was evaluated by the Female Sexual Function Index and the International Consultation on Incontinence Questionnaire-Short Form to assess the Incontinence Urinary and qualifies urinary loss. The intervention consisted of a muscle training exercise program. ANOVA tests were used to establish differences between groups. RESULTS: There was an improvement in all outcomes, but there was no time versus group interaction. Improvement in sexual function was observed (p<0.001), the impact of urinary incontinence on quality of life (p<0.001), and pressure of the muscles of pelvic floor muscles (p<0.001) over time. There was no time versus group interaction for sexual function (p=0.87), the impact of urinary incontinence on quality of life (p=0.88), and pressure of the pelvic floor muscles (p=0.66). CONCLUSIONS: Pelvic floor muscle exercise programs seem to be a very promising strategy concerning improving sexual activity among puerperal patients.

SUMMARY BACKGROUND: Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infections can affect the nervous system, triggering problems such as the Guillain-Barre Syndrome (GBS), an association that can bring complications to the patient. OBJECTIVE: This scoping review aimed to clarify the clinical features and analyze patients with GBS associated with SARS-CoV-2 infection, looking at morbidity, mortality, and neurological outcomes. SEARCH STRATEGY: The search was conducted through Medline, Web of Science, Embase, CINAHAL, Latin-American and Caribbean Literature in Health Sciences (LILACS), clinicaltrials.gov, SCOPUS, and the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials. SELECTION CRITERIA: Observational studies, published after 2019, describe patients with GBS associated with SARS-CoV-2 infection. There were no language restrictions while selecting the studies. DATA COLLECTION AND ANALYSIS: Three authors, Kleyton Santos de Medeiros, Luíza Thomé de Araújo Macêdo, and Wederson Farias de Souza, independently screened the search results using titles and abstracts. Duplicate studies were excluded. The same authors then went through the entire text to determine whether the studies met the inclusion criteria. Discrepancies were resolved by other reviewers, Ana Paula Ferreira Costa, Ayane Cristine Sarmento, and Ana Katherine Gonçalves. Finally, the selection of the studies was summarized in a PRISMA flow diagram. MAIN RESULTS: Main manifestations were fever, coughing, dyspnea, sore throat, ageusia, anosmia, and respiratory failure, in addition to paresthesia of the upper and lower limbs, tetraparesis, facial diplegia, areflexia, asthenia, mastoid pain, acute ataxia, fatigue, numbness, swallowing disorder, and moderate low back pain. CONCLUSION: Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) can trigger the GBS, despite the few studies on this topic. Patients had clinical manifestations of COVID-19 infection and neurological manifestations characterizing GBS.

SUMMARY BACKGROUND: Although much has been studied about the SARS-Cov-2 virus, its effects, and the effectiveness of possible treatments, little is known about its interaction with other infectious diseases. OBJECTIVE: The aim is to study its clinical features and morbidity, and mortality outcomes of COVID-19 patients with HIV/AIDS coinfection. DATA SOURCES: MEDLINE, Web of Science, Embase, CINAHL, LILACS, Scopus, ClinicalTrials.gov, and Cochrane. STUDY ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA: Atudies in any language, published after 2019, were describing COVID-19 patients with HIV/AIDS. STUDY APPRAISAL: JBI Levels of Evidence, Joanna Briggs Institute. SYNTHESIS METHODS: As shown in the PRISMA flow diagram, two authors separately screened the search results from the obtained titles and abstracts. RESULTS: Chest CT was observed in patients with pneumonia by SARS-CoV-2 with findings of multiple ground-glass opacities (GGO) in the lungs, there is a need for supplemental oxygenation. One patient developed encephalopathy and complicated tonic-clonic seizures; four patients were transplanted (two, liver; two, kidneys), one patient developed severe SARS-CoV-2 pneumonia and 30 patients died (mortality rate, 11%). CONCLUSION: HIV did not show any relevance directly with the occurrence of COVID-19. Some studies suggest that HIV-1 infection through induction levels of IFN-I, may to some extent, stop the apparent SARS-CoV-2 infection, thus leading to undetectable RNA. Moreover, some authors suggest retroviral therapy routinely used to control HIV infection could be used to prevent COVID-19 infection.

ABSTRACT Objective: propose steps for patient safety based on the analysis of risks in mobile emergency care from nurses’ perspective. Method: quantitative and descriptive study.

OBJETIVO: Analisar os vídeos no sítio de compartilhamento YouTube, observando quais os pontos tratados nos vídeos relacionados à reanimação cardiopulmonar e ao Suporte Básico de Vida. MÉTODOS: A análise foi baseada no Guidelines de 2010 da American Heart Association.Trata-se de uma pesquisa do tipo exploratória, quantitativa e qualitativa, realizada no sítio de compartilhamento do YouTube, utilizando-se os Descritores em Ciências da Saúde "reanimação cardiopulmonar" e "suporte básico de vida" para vídeos que tinham como foco o suporte básico de vida. RESULTADOS: Durante a investigação inicial encontrou-se 260 vídeos, foram escolhidos para análise,61. Estes,em sua maioria, foram postados por pessoa física e pertencem à categoria Education. Grande parte dos vídeos, apesar de serem adicionados ao sítio depois da publicação do Guidelines de 2010 da AHA, estava de acordo com as antigas diretrizes de 2005. CONCLUSÃO: Embora o sítio de compartilhamento de vídeos YouTube seja amplamente usado atualmente, nele há uma carência de vídeos a respeito de reanimação cardiopulmonar e Suporte Básico de Vida adequados às diretrizes da American Heart Association, podendo influenciar negativamente a população que o utiliza.

OBJECTIVE: To analyze the videos on the YouTube video sharing site, noting which points addressed in the videos related to CPR and BLS, based on the 2010 Guidelines for the American Heart Association (AHA). METHODS: This was an exploratory, quantitative and qualitative research performed in the YouTube sharing site, using as keywords the expressions in Portuguese equivalent to the Medical Subject Headings (MeSH) "Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation" and "Basic Life Support" for videos that focused on the basic life support. RESULTS: The research totaled 260 videos over the two searches. Following the exclusion criteria, 61 videos remained. These mostly are posted by individuals and belong to the category Education. Moreover, most of the videos, despite being added to the site after the publication of the 2010 AHA Guidelines, were under the older 2005 guidelines. CONCLUSION: Although the video-sharing site YouTube is widely used today, it lacks videos about CPR and BLS that comply to the most recent AHA recommendations, which may negatively influence the population that uses it.
