Abstract Objective: To describe study protocol and initial results of research project COVID-Inconfidentes. Method: This paper described the methodological procedures adopted and the prevalence of the SARS-CoV-2 infection in the population. A household survey was conducted between October and December 2020, in two historic cities of Brazil's mining region. Anti-SARS-CoV-2 antibody was detected using the Wondfo® rapid test. The face-to face interview consisted of administration of a questionnaire containing registration data, sociodemographic and economic variables, living habits, general health condition, mental health, sleep habits, and eating and nutrition. Results: We evaluated 1,762 residents, of which 764 (43.4 %) were in Mariana and 998 (56.6 %) in Ouro Preto. For both cities, 51.9 % of the interviewees were female, with a predominance of the age range 35 to 59 years old (47.2 %). The prevalence of the SARS-CoV-2 infection was 5.5 % in both cities, 6.2 % in Ouro Preto, and 4.7 % in Mariana (p-value > 0.05). Conclusion: The study was effective to estimate the seroprevalence of infection by the virus and its findings will enable further analyses of the health conditions of the population related to social isolation and the risk of infection with SARS-CoV-2.

Resumen Describir el protocolo de estudio y los resultados iniciales del proyecto de investigación COVID Inconfidentes. Método: Este artículo describe los procedimientos metodológicos adoptados y la prevalencia de la infección por SARS-CoV-2 en la población. Se realizó una encuesta domiciliaria entre octubre y diciembre de 2020, en dos ciudades históricas de la región minera de Brasil. El anticuerpo anti-SARS-CoV-2 se detectó mediante la prueba rápida Wondfo®. La entrevista cara a cara consistió en la administración de un cuestionario que contenía datos de registro, variables sociodemográficas y económicas, hábitos de vida, estado general de salud, salud mental, hábitos de sueño, alimentación y nutrición. Resultados: Se evaluaron 1.762 habitantes, de los cuales 764 (43,4 %) estaban en Mariana y 998 (56,6 %) en Ouro Preto. Para ambas ciudades, el 51,9 % de los entrevistados eran del sexo femenino, con predominio del rango de edad de 35 a 59 años (47,2 %). La prevalencia de la infección por SARS-CoV-2 fue del 5,5 % en ambos municipios, del 6,2 % en Ouro Preto y del 4,7 % en Mariana (p > 0,05). Conclusión: El estudio fue efectivo para estimar la seroprevalencia de infección por el virus y sus hallazgos permitirán analizar más las condiciones de salud de la población relacionadas con el aislamiento social y el riesgo de infección por SARS-CoV-2.

ABSTRACT BACKGROUND: The coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic has adversely affected the health of the global population, with sleep quality being one of the affected parameters. OBJECTIVES: To evaluate sleep quality and its associated factors in adults during the COVID-19 pandemic in Brazil. DESIGN AND SETTING: A population-based cross-sectional serological survey of 1,762 adults in the Iron Quadrangle region of Brazil. METHODS: The Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index was used to assess sleep quality. Sociodemographic variables, health conditions, health-related behaviors, anxiety, vitamin D levels, weight gain/loss, and pandemic characteristics were assessed using a structured questionnaire. Univariate and multivariate analyses using Poisson regression with robust variance were performed to identify factors associated with sleep quality. RESULTS: More than half of the participants reported poor sleep quality (52.5%). Multivariate analysis revealed that the factors associated with poor sleep quality included living alone (prevalence ratio [PR] = 1.34; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.04–1.73), anxiety disorder (PR = 1.32; 95% CI: 1.08–1.62), 5.0% weight loss (PR = 1.21; 95% CI: 1.02–1.44), 5.0% weight gain (PR = 1.27; 95% CI: 1.03–1.55), vitamin D deficiency (PR = 1.16; 95% CI: 1.01–1.35), and COVID-19 symptoms (PR = 1.29; 95% CI: 1.10–1.52). CONCLUSIONS: Our study revealed that more than half of the participants experienced poor sleep quality during the COVID-19 pandemic. Factors associated with poor sleep quality included vitamin D deficiency and weight changes related to the pandemic.

Resumo Fundamento As complicações cardiovasculares da COVID-19 são aspectos importantes da patogênese e do prognóstico da doença. Evidências do papel prognóstico da troponina e da lesão miocárdica em pacientes hospitalizados com COVID-19 na América Latina são ainda escassos. Objetivos Avaliar a lesão miocárdica como preditor independente de mortalidade hospitalar e suporte ventilatório mecânico em pacientes hospitalizados, do registro brasileiro de COVID-19. Métodos Este estudo coorte é um subestudo do registro brasileiro de COVID-19, conduzido em 31 hospitais brasileiros de 17 cidades, de março a setembro de 2020. Os desfechos primários incluíram mortalidade hospitalar e suporte ventilatório mecânico invasivo. Os modelos para os desfechos primários foram estimados por regressão de Poisson com variância robusta, com significância estatística de p<0,05. Resultados Dos 2925 pacientes [idade mediana de 60 anos (48-71), 57,1%], 27,3% apresentaram lesão miocárdica. A proporção de pacientes com comorbidades foi maior nos pacientes com lesão miocárdica [mediana 2 (1-2) vs. 1 (0-20)]. Os pacientes com lesão miocárdica apresentaram maiores valores medianos de peptídeo natriurético cerebral, lactato desidrogenase, creatina fosfoquinase, N-terminal do pró-peptídeo natriurético tipo B e proteína C reativa em comparação a pacientes sem lesão miocárdica. Como fatores independentes, proteína C reativa e contagem de plaquetas foram relacionados com o risco de morte, e neutrófilos e contagem de plaquetas foram relacionados ao risco de suporte ventilatório mecânico invasivo. Os pacientes com níveis elevados de troponina apresentaram um maior risco de morte (RR 2,03, IC95% 1,60-2,58) e suporte ventilatório mecânico (RR 1,87;IC95% 1,57-2,23), em comparação àqueles com níveis de troponina normais.

Abstract Background Cardiovascular complications of COVID-19 are important aspects of the disease’s pathogenesis and prognosis. Evidence on the prognostic role of troponin and myocardial injury in Latin American hospitalized COVID-19 patients is still scarce. Objectives To evaluate myocardial injury as independent predictor of in-hospital mortality and invasive mechanical ventilation support in hospitalized patients, from the Brazilian COVID-19 Registry. Methods This cohort study is a substudy of the Brazilian COVID-19 Registry, conducted in 31 Brazilian hospitals of 17 cities, March-September 2020. Primary outcomes included in-hospital mortality and invasive mechanical ventilation support. Models for the primary outcomes were estimated by Poisson regression with robust variance, with statistical significance of p<0.05. Results Of 2,925 patients (median age of 60 years [48-71], 57.1% men), 27.3% presented myocardial injury. The proportion of patients with comorbidities was higher among patients with cardiac injury (median 2 [1-2] vs. 1 [0-2]). Patients with myocardial injury had higher median levels of brain natriuretic peptide, lactate dehydrogenase, creatine phosphokinase, N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide, and C-reactive protein than patients without myocardial injury. As independent predictors, C-reactive protein and platelet counts were related to the risk of death, and neutrophils and platelet counts were related to the risk of invasive mechanical ventilation support. Patients with high troponin levels presented a higher risk of death (RR 2.03, 95% CI 1.60-2.58) and invasive mechanical ventilation support (RR 1.87, 95% CI 1.57-2.23), when compared to those with normal troponin levels. Conclusion Cardiac injury was an independent predictor of in-hospital mortality and the need for invasive mechanical ventilation support in hospitalized COVID-19 patients.

Abstract: En

Background: A population study is an important tool that can be used to understand the actual epidemiological scenario of the Covid-19 in different territories, identify its magnitude, understand its transmission dynamics, and its demographic, geographical, and social distribution. Objective: The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence and dynamics of SARS-CoV-2 infection in the population of two Brazilian cities during the pandemic first wave and subsequent socioeconomic and health effects. Materials & methods: This paper described the methodological procedures adopted and the prevalence of the SARS-CoV-2 infection in the population. A household survey was conducted between October and December 2020, in two historic cities of Brazil's mining region. Anti-SARS-CoV-2 antibody was detected using the Wondfo® rapid test. The face-to-face interview consisted of administration of a questionnaire containing registration data, sociodemographic and economic variables, living habits, general health condition, mental health, sleep habits, and eating and nutrition. Results: We evaluated 1,762 residents, of which 764 (43.4%) were in Mariana and 998 (56.6%) in Ouro Preto. For both cities, 51.9% of the interviewees were female, with a predominance of the age range 35 to 59 years old (47.2%). The prevalence of the SARS-CoV-2 infection was 5.5% in all cities, 6.2% in Ouro Preto, and 4.7% in Mariana. The prevalence was similar between cities (P>0.05). Conclusion: The study was effective in verifying the seroprevalence of infection by the virus and its findings will enable further analyses of the health conditions of the population related to social isolation and the risk of infection with SARS-CoV-2.

RESUMO As projeções climáticas para o final do século XXI sugerem a intensificação de eventos extremos que podem causar danos diretos e indiretos à saúde pública e impactar, em diferentes proporções, as populações vulneráveis. Nesse âmbito, destaca-se a vigilância em saúde por suas relevantes ações em todas as etapas de gestão de risco dos desastres. O objetivo deste artigo foi realizar uma revisão da literatura científica sobre a vigilância em saúde e desastres de origem natural, com intuito de descrever as principais abordagens desses temas. Observou-se que as publicações têm como assunto central os efeitos dos desastres sobre a saúde; as ações do setor saúde em desastres, o sistema/fluxo de informação em saúde e as condições de vulnerabilidade aos desastres. Os dois primeiros tópicos são mais prevalentes na literatura e permitem o compartilhamento das lições aprendidas ao longo dos anos. Embora em menor número, os dois últimos temas apresentam discussões relevantes para a temática da gestão de risco de desastres e têm muito a contribuir para o avanço da cultura de risco no País, para uma melhor compreensão da realidade e para a resiliência tanto populacional quanto institucional. Nesse sentido, ressalta-se a importância de mais estudos sobre essas temáticas.

ABSTRACT Climate projections for the end of the 21st century suggest the intensification of extreme events that can cause direct and indirect damage to public health and impact differently on vulnerable populations. In this context, health surveillance stands out for its relevant actions in all stages of disaster risk management. The aim of this paper was to review the scientific literature on health surveillance and natural disasters in a global context, in order to describe the main approaches to such themes. Publications tend to focus on the health effects of disasters; health sector actions in disasters, the health information system/flow, and conditions of vulnerability and disasters. The first two topics are more prevalent in the literature and allow the sharing of lessons learned over the years. Although in smaller numbers, the last two themes present discussions relevant to the theme of disaster risk management and have much to contribute to the advancement of risk culture in the country, for a better understanding of the reality and for the resilience of both the population and institutions. In this sense, the importance of further studies on these themes is emphasized.

Resumo A mudança do clima representa séria ameaça para a população humana, causando impactos em diferentes setores. Conhecer os fatores que elevam a vulnerabilidade do ser humano à mudança do clima permite identificar pontos críticos e direcionar ações imediatas para reduzi-la. Assim, este estudo desenvolveu e aplicou um índice de vulnerabilidade à mudança do clima para as microrregiões do Espírito Santo, abarcando os elementos fundamentais da vulnerabilidade - exposição, sensibilidade e capacidade adaptativa. Anomalias climáticas de precipitação e temperatura também foram usadas para estimar as alterações para o futuro. A construção dos indicadores se baseou na atribuição de notas indicativas de vulnerabilidade para cada grupo de municípios (clustering), com posterior média aritmética e padronização dos valores para gerar índices variando entre 0 e 1. Verificou-se que a microrregião Noroeste apresenta vulnerabilidade extremamente elevada, em virtude de características, sociodemográficas, econômicas e ambientais. Todo o estado poderá ser afetado por alterações do clima futuro, principalmente pelo aumento de temperaturas médias. O norte do estado poderá ter aumento no número de dias secos consecutivos. Espera-se que esses resultados contribuam para orientar ações de adaptação à mudança do clima e aumentar a resiliência do território a partir da identificação das vulnerabilidades existentes.

Abstract Climate change poses a serious threat to the human population, causing impacts in different sectors. Understanding the factors that may increase human’s vulnerability to climate change allows to identify critical points and to direct immediate actions to reduce vulnerability. Thus, this study developed and applied an index of vulnerability to climate change for the microregions of the state of Espírito Santo, Brazil, encompassing the key elements of vulnerability - Exposure, Sensitivity and Adaptive Capacity. Climatic anomalies of precipitation and temperature were also used for estimate future climate changes. Construction of the indicators was based on the assignment of scores indicating levels of vulnerability for each group of municipalities (clustering); subsequent arithmetic mean and standardization of the values were applied to generate indices from 0 and 1. The Northwestern microregion presented high vulnerability due to its sociodemographic, economic and environmental characteristics. In addition, the entire state may be affected by changes in future climate, mainly by the increase of average temperatures. The Northern region may have a considerable increase in the number of consecutive dry days. These results are expected to contribute to guide actions of adaptation to the climate change and to increase the resilience of the territory from the identification of existing vulnerabilities.

Resumo Introdução O uso de substâncias psicoativas (SPAs) é reconhecido como problema de saúde pública mundial presente em diferentes segmentos populacionais, inclusive em universitários. O objetivo do estudo é analisar a produção científica nacional acerca do uso das SPAs por universitários brasileiros. Métodos Realizou-se revisão sistemática de literatura entre 2008 e 2015 em português e inglês. Resultados O álcool aparece como a SPA mais consumida, seguida de tabaco e maconha. O uso inicial das SPAs vincula-se à busca de diversão/prazer, e o ambiente universitário é apontado como motivador do uso. São escassos os estudos nacionais que buscam a correlação entre uso de SPAs e melhoramento cognitivo. Conclusão Conclui-se que as pesquisas nacionais apresentam limitações ao investigar os motivos e as expectativas de uso das SPAs para além do recreativo, por exemplo, a busca por melhoria de notas ou de desempenho acadêmico.

Abstract Introduction The use of psychoactive substances (PAS) is recognized as a health problem, and can be observed in different populations segments, particularly among university students. This study aimed to analyze the national scientific production on the use of PAS among Brazilian college students. Methods We performed a systematic literature review of articles published between 2008 and 2015. Results Alcohol is the most used PAS, followed by tobacco and marijuana. At first, PASs are used for fun/pleasure, and college environment is appointed as a motivator for their use. Researches on the use of PASs and cognitive enhancement are scarce. Conclusion National researches have limitations to study the reasons and expectations of PASs use beyond recreational use, for example, in seeking a better academic performance.

Abstract AIMS This study was designed to investigate the effects of 14 water environment adaptation days on motor behavior and physiological condition of swimming rats. METHODS Sixty male Wistar rats were divided into four groups-baseline (Bl) and control (Co) groups-which did not perform the water environment adaptation; and sub (SubAnT) and (SupraAnT) anaerobic threshold groups, which performed 14 water environment adaptation days with sub or supra anaerobic threshold progressive loads (from the tenth day), respectively. The climbing-swimming prevalence (i.e. motor behavior) was analyzed during the water environment adaptation days. Lactate minimum test (LMT) parameters and muscular/hepatic glycogen content in addition to serum creatine kinase were also measured. RESULTS Animals from SubAnT and SupraAnT groups presented a lower climbing-swimming pattern throughout the extent of the experiment (p=0.000), especially after the 5th session. These results were achieved without an improvement in the LMT results or glycogen/creatine kinase. In addition, improvements of 26.6% and 25% for the LMT success rate (i.e. LMT reliability) were obtained only for SubAnT and SupraAnT animals. CONCLUSION Overall, we demonstrated that a water environment adaptation period is necessary for lowering the climbing-swimming pattern without physiological improvement.

RESUMO: Introdução: As leishmanioses representam uma importante carga de doença nos países tropicais, apresentando índices significativos de morbimortalidade nos locais onde ocorrem, incluindo o Brasil. Nesse contexto, a participação popular nas ações profiláticas pode ser determinante para o êxito das estratégias de controle. Objetivo: Por isso, o presente estudo teve o objetivo de investigar o conhecimento da população sobre as leishmanioses e a ocorrência de fatores de risco peridomiciliares associados à população no município de Formiga, Minas Gerais. Métodos: Foi realizado um inquérito domiciliar com uma amostra de 427 indivíduos entre maio e julho de 2011. Resultados: Apenas 7,5% dos moradores mostraram conhecimento sobre as leishmanioses, sendo principalmente as mulheres (OR = 3,15; IC95% 1,30 - 7,65). A prevalência de riscos peridomiciliares foi de 95%. Associação estatisticamente significativa foi encontrada entre maior escolaridade e menos fatores de risco peridomiciliares (OR = 0,45; IC95% 0,28 - 0,72) e entre o local de residência e maior número desses fatores de risco (OR = 1,84; IC95% 1,19 - 2,85). Conclusão: Os resultados demonstram que há baixo nível de conhecimento sobre as leishmanioses por parte da população. Além disso, a maioria dos respondentes está sujeita a algum fator de risco peridomiciliar, fato que pode contribuir para a manutenção do ciclo da doença no município.

ABSTRACT: Introduction: Leishmaniasis represents an important burden of diseases in tropical countries, with significant levels of morbidity and mortality where they occur, including in Brazil. In this context, popular participation in prophylactic actions can be decisive for the success of the control strategies. Objective: For this reason, this study aimed at investigating the population's knowledge concerning leishmaniasis and the occurrence of peridomiciliary risk factors associated with the population of Formiga, Minas Gerais. Methods: A household questionnaire with a sample of 427 individuals was conducted between May and July 2011. Results: Only 7.5% of the residents presented knowledge regarding leishmaniasis, most of them being women (OR = 3.15; 95%CI 1.30 - 7.65). The prevalence of peridomiciliary risks was 95%. A statistically significant association was found between higher education levels and less peridomiciliary risk factors (OR = 0.45; 95%CI 0.28 - 0.72) and between the place of residence and a higher number of risk factors (OR = 0.84; 95%CI 1.19 - 2.85). Conclusion: The results demonstrate that the population has low levels of knowledge about leishmaniasis. Moreover, the majority of respondents are subject to some peridomiciliary risk factor, which may contribute to the maintenance of the disease cycle in the city.
