Aim This study aimed to perform an in vitro comparative analysis of the antifungal activity of different calcium silicate-based endodontic sealers against three fungal species. Methods The antifungal properties of three calcium silicate-based sealers were tested: Bio-C Sealer, Cambiar a Sealer Plus BC, and MTA-Fillapex. Two commonly used sealers were used as controls: AH Plus and Endomethasone. An agar diffusion test was performed to analyze the antifungal activity of the sealers against Candida albicans, Candida glabrata, Candida tropicalis, and a mixed microbial culture medium. The results were analyzed using ANOVA (p <0.05). Results Endomethasone exhibited the highest inhibition against all strains examined, maintaining a consistent level of inhibition throughout 7 days. MTA-Fillapex demonstrated the best performance among the calcium silicate-based sealers for the three fungal species (p < 0.05), maintaining stable values over the 7 days, surpassing that of Endomethasone. Nevertheless, MTA-Fillapex only exhibited antimicrobial effect against the mixed culture for the first 24 hours, and no antimicrobial activity was observed at 48 hours, being surpassed by all tested sealers (p < 0.05). Conclusion Of all silicate-based sealers tested, only MTA-Fillapex exhibited promising antifungal activity. Nevertheless, care must be taken when extrapolating these results, as MTA-Fillapex exhibited poor antimicrobial activity when tested in mixed microbial cultures. silicatebased silicate based BioC Bio C BC MTAFillapex.

Neste artigo, examinamos se o engajamento político online está relacionado à maior participação eleitoral entre os jovens. A tese do ciclo de vida sustenta que os jovens mostram menor engajamento na participação eleitoral em comparação com os adultos devido à sua menor experiência e recursos. A partir da análise dos dados da Pesquisa Eleitoral Brasileira (ESEB) de 2022, questionamos essa crença, argumentando que o engajamento online, dentro do contexto juvenil, reduz os custos de participação e contribui para o aumento da atividade política offline, incluindo ações voltadas para o cidadão. Usando testes de regressão, analisamos duas hipóteses: a primeira é que os jovens votam mais quando estão politicamente engajados online, e a segunda é que o engajamento online diminui as diferenças na participação eleitoral entre jovens e adultos. Os resultados confirmam que o engajamento online desempenha um papel compensatório e nivelador na participação eleitoral dos jovens em comparação com os mais velhos.

The use of biogenic residues to obtain calcium phosphate compounds, mainly hydroxyapatite (HAp), is an excellent alternative to reduce costs in obtaining biomaterials. The purpose of this study was to obtain hydroxyapatite from fish bones and hen eggshells by alkaline hydrolysis and precipitation, respectively, and compare them to HAp obtained from calcium commercial source based on physical-chemical properties and in vitro assays. The biomaterials obtained were characterized by X-ray Diffraction (XRD), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) method and Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR). The XRD results revealed the presence of the main characteristic peaks of single HAp phase and FTIR analysis showed various functional groups, such as PO43-, CO3-2 and OH-, confirming the presence of HAp. SEM observations of the synthesized HAp showed a rod-like and spherical-like morphology. The cell viability and bioactivity of the materials were evaluated by rezasurin reduction and McCoy medium assays, respectively. The biomaterials obtained had no toxic effect and the sample obtained from fish bone was more bioactive when compared to the others. Therefore, the biowastes can be used as an alternative source of calcium in the synthesis of hydroxyapatite with promising properties for application in the biomedical area. compounds HAp, , (HAp) precipitation respectively physicalchemical physical chemical assays Xray X ray XRD, (XRD) SEM, (SEM) BrunauerEmmettTeller Brunauer Emmett Teller BET (BET FTIR. .

SUMMARY OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to assess the inter-reliability of the Braden scale and its subscales for different patients assisted in the intensive care unit. We hypothesized that the Braden scale has low reliability in different populations. METHODS: This reliability study involved the Braden scale in intensive care unit of a hospital. A total of 200 patients were admitted to the intensive care unit in four different groups: neurological patients, sepsis, elderly, and adults affected by trauma. The Braden scale is a tool composed of six subscales for patient assessment: sensory perception, humidity, activity, mobility, nutrition, and friction. The total score was also calculated. The Braden scale was applied by two different nurses with an interval of 20–30 min between applications. RESULTS: For all populations, kappa values considered unsuitable were observed for most categories of the Braden scale, ranging from 0.06–0.25. Only for the total Braden scale score was moderate reliability identified in all groups evaluated, with intraclass correlation coefficient values ranging from 0.48–0.75. CONCLUSIONS: Braden scale is not a reliable tool to be used in the intensive care unit, and we do not recommend the use of this scale to assess the risk of developing pressure injury.

Abstract Objective To evaluate the relationship between asthma control, family income and family costs of asthma in a population of children-adolescents; to detail the family costs of asthma in this age range; and to compare asthma costs for the families of children-adolescents and adults. Methods The authors invited asthmatic subjects who attended a scheduled spirometry test at the Jundiaí School of Medicine (FMJ). The FMJ performs all spirometry tests requested by staff physicians who serve at the public healthcare system in the municipality. Volunteers responded to the ACQ, the Asthma Family Costs Questionnaire and underwent a spirometry test. Results The authors included 342 children-adolescents. Families of children-adolescents taking maintenance therapy and families of those reporting uncontrolled asthma symptoms were more likely to report any expenditure with asthma during the preceding month. In this age range, the smallest expenditures were on diagnostic tests and medical consultations, while home expenditures to avoid asthma triggers were the highest ones. As compared to adults’ families, the children and adolescents families reported a greater proportion of income committed with asthma. Expenditures with transportation to healthcare facilities for asthma care were greater in the families of children-adolescents as compared to the values reported by the adults’ families; in contrast, loss of income due to asthma was smaller in the families of children-adolescents. Conclusions Children-adolescents’ asthma affects the household economy. The authors believe researchers should assess this outcome when designing studies about asthma. Finally, the study's data support the necessity of public policies in low-resource communities to minimize the economic impact of children and adolescents’ asthma.

Abstract The number of deaths from COVID-19 is closely associated with multimorbidities. This study aimed to review the clinical and functional conditions of patients who recovered from COVID-19. Additionally, identify the relationship with risk factors and comorbidities. Systemic arterial hypertension (SAH) was more frequently observed in patients with severe COVID-19. Diabetes mellitus (DM) is one of the comorbidities that has contributed the most to the increase in the number of hospitalizations due to complications and the number of deaths due to infection by COVID-19. Obesity has been shown to be a risk factor for hospitalization in patients with COVID-19 under 60 years of age. Most survivors of COVID-19 suffer primarily from muscle fatigue or weakness. In addition, patients who were more seriously ill during their hospital stay have greater impairment of functional capacity, pulmonary diffusion and fatigue symptoms, and are the main target population for long-term recovery interventions. To optimize the post-hospitalization rehabilitation of patients after discharge from COVID-19, the need for multidisciplinary work in rehabilitation, the reinforcement of public policies to ensure equity in access to the public health system and training should be considered of the health team in view of the new demands and realities generated by COVID-19.

Resumo O número de mortes por COVID-19 está intimamente associado a multimorbidades. O presente estudo teve como objetivo revisar as condições clínicas e funcionais de pacientes que se recuperaram da COVID-19. Adicionalmente, identificar a relação com fatores de risco e comorbidades. A hipertensão arterial sistêmica (HAS) foi observada com mais frequência em pacientes com COVID-19 grave. O diabetes mellitus (DM) é uma das comorbidades que mais tem contribuído para o aumento do número de internações por complicações e do número de óbitos por infecção por COVID-19. A obesidade demonstrou ser um fator de risco para hospitalização em pacientes com COVID-19 com menos de 60 anos. A maioria dos sobreviventes da COVID-19 sofre principalmente de fadiga ou fraqueza muscular. Além disso, os pacientes que estiveram mais gravemente enfermos durante sua internação hospitalar apresentam maior prejuízo da capacidade funcional, pior difusão pulmonar e sintomas de fadiga, sendo assim a população-alvo para intervenções de recuperação a longo prazo.. Para otimizar a reabilitação pós-hospitalização de pacientes após alta por COVID-19, deve-se considerar a necessidade de trabalho multiprofissional na reabilitação, o reforço das políticas públicas para garantir a equidade no acesso ao sistema público de saúde e o treinamento da equipe de saúde frente às novas demandas e realidades geradas pelo COVID-19.

SUMMARY OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to validate the internal structure of the Brazilian version of the Baecke Habitual Physical Activity Questionnaire. METHODS: A cross-sectional study was conducted with individuals over 18 years old of both sexes, with Brazilian Portuguese as their native language. The structure of the Baecke Habitual Physical Activity Questionnaire was tested by confirmatory factor analysis. The model fit was evaluated by the following indices: root mean square error of approximation, comparative fit index, Tucker-Lewis index, standardized root mean square residual, and χ²/degrees of freedom. We used the Akaike information criterion and Bayesian information criterion to compare different structures of the Baecke Habitual Physical Activity Questionnaire. RESULTS: A total of 241 individuals participated in this study. The original structure of the Baecke Habitual Physical Activity Questionnaire with 16 items and 3 domains was compared to a structure with 14 items and 3 domains. The internal structure of the Baecke Habitual Physical Activity Questionnaire with 14 items showed better fit indices and lower Akaike information criterion and Bayesian information criterion values. CONCLUSION: The best internal structure of the Brazilian version of the Baecke Habitual Physical Activity Questionnaire in adults presents 3 domains and 14 items.

Método: revisão integrativa, com busca e seleção realizadas por pares e de forma independente, após consulta eletrônica às bases de dados CINAHL, MEDLINE, SCOPUS, Web of Science, LILACS, BDENF e IBECS em janeiro de 2021. A amostra foi constituída por 15 estudos primários publicados sem restrição temporal ou de idioma. A análise e a síntese dos resultados ocorreram de forma descritiva. Resultados: foram identificadas limitações no conhecimento, atitudes inconsistentes e práticas assistenciais comumente negligenciadas, relacionadas às medidas de prevenção, imunização e biossegurança, ao gerenciamento de risco e monitoramento de sintomas e complicações, que contribuíram para uma maior exposição ocupacional. Dentre os fatores associados, destacaram-se a baixa participação em atividades de educação permanente, o nível de formação, as condições laborais, as limitações na disponibilização de testes de imunização (anti-HBs) e a subnotificação de agravos. Conclusão: o conhecimento, as atitudes e as práticas desenvolvidos por enfermeiros, relacionados à hepatite B, mostraram-se limitados e inconsistentes, podendo resultar na maior exposição ocupacional, assim como impactar diretamente a cobertura vacinal e a ocorrência de incidentes.

ABSTRACT Objective: to analyze, in the literature, the nurses' knowledge, attitudes and practices regarding Hepatitis B. Method: an integrative review, with search and selection conducted independently by peers, after electronic queries in the CINAHL, MEDLINE, SCOPUS, Web of Science, LILACS, BDENF and IBECS databases in January 2021. The sample consisted in 15 primary studies published with no time or language restrictions. Analysis and synthesis of the results were carried out in a descriptive manner. Results: limitations in knowledge, inconsistent attitudes and commonly neglected assistance-related practices were identified, related to prevention, immunization and biosafety measures, to risk management and to monitoring of symptoms and complications, which contributed to greater occupational exposure. Among the associated factors, low participation in permanent education activities, training level, working conditions, limitations in the availability of immunization tests (anti-HBs) and underreporting of health problems stood out. Conclusion: the knowledge, attitudes and practices developed by nurses in relation to Hepatitis B proved to be limited and inconsistent, which may result in greater occupational exposure, as well as exert a direct impact on vaccination coverage and occurrence of incidents.

Resumo Objetivo Analisar os aspectos clínicos e os fatores associados ao comportamento suicida durante a pandemia da COVID-19. Métodos Estudo transversal e analítico, realizado com registros assistenciais de 130 pacientes que buscaram atendimento em emergência psiquiátrica após ideação, planejamento ou tentativa de suicídio. Utilizou-se um formulário para caracterização sociodemográfica, clínica e terapêutica, assim como para identificação das necessidades de cuidados e dos fatores associados. A análise dos dados foi constituída pelos testes Exato de Fischer, Qui-quadrado de Pearson e pela Regressão de Poisson, considerando nível de significância de 5%. Resultados O comportamento suicida foi expresso pela tentativa de suicídio, ideação e planejamento, predominando no sexo feminino, em adultos jovens, desempregados e de baixa renda familiar, assim como em pacientes com histórico de transtorno mental, de internação psiquiátrica, de tentativas prévias e de abandono terapêutico. As principais alterações psíquicas envolveram ansiedade, depressão, sentimentos de desesperança, alucinações audiovisuais e delírios persecutórios. O consumo de substâncias psicoativas elevou em até 13,8 vezes o risco para tentativa de suicídio e as crises situacionais em 10,6 vezes a ideação. Ainda, a perda de renda e a internação anterior foram associados à manifestação do comportamento. As evidências de cuidados envolveram intervenções medicamentosas, medidas de vigilância e admissão hospitalar. Conclusão Durante a pandemia da COVID-19, o comportamento suicida foi associado à maior predisposição para o consumo de substâncias psicoativas, crises situacionais e perda de renda. Destaca-se a necessidade de políticas públicas voltadas para identificação, prevenção e gerenciamento adequado dos estados de risco.

Abstract Objective To analyze the clinical aspects and factors associated with suicidal behavior during the COVID-19 pandemic. Methods Cross-sectional analytical study performed with care records of 130 patients who sought care in the psychiatric emergency department after suicidal ideation, planning or attempt. A form was used for sociodemographic, clinical and therapeutic characterization, and for identification of care needs and associated factors. Data analysis consisted of Fischer’s exact test, Pearson’s chi-square test and Poisson’s regression, considering a significance level of 5%. Results Suicidal behavior was expressed by suicide attempt, ideation and planning. It was predominant in the female sex, young adults, unemployed, with low family income, and in patients with a history of mental disorder, psychiatric hospitalization, previous attempts and of therapeutic abandonment. The main psychic alterations involved anxiety, depression, feelings of hopelessness, audiovisual hallucinations and persecutory delusions. The consumption of psychoactive substances increased by up to 13.8 times the risk for suicide attempt, while situational crises increased suicidal ideation by up to 10.6 times. The loss of income and previous hospitalization were associated with manifestation of the behavior. Evidence of care involved drug interventions, surveillance measures, and hospital admission. Conclusion During the COVID-19 pandemic, suicidal behavior was associated with a greater predisposition to consume psychoactive substances, situational crises and loss of income. The need for public policies aimed at the identification, prevention and adequate management of risk states stands out.

SUMMARY OBJECTIVE: The objective of this study was to investigate the reliability and construct validity of the Self-Estimated Functional Inability because of Pain questionnaire for workers in a sample of Brazilian workers with musculoskeletal pain. METHODS: This is a questionnaire validation study. Workers with musculoskeletal pain were included. Besides the Self-Estimated Functional Inability because of Pain questionnaire for workers, we used the following instruments to perform construct validity: the Work Ability Index and the Numerical Pain Rating Scale. A subsample answered the Self-Estimated Functional Inability because of Pain questionnaire for workers in two moments to calculate reliability by means of the intraclass correlation coefficient and internal consistency by means of the Cronbach’s alpha. RESULTS: A total of 190 Brazilian workers were included. Regarding the construct validity, we observed a correlation with magnitude above 0.50 between the Self-Estimated Functional Inability because of Pain questionnaire for workers and the Numerical Pain Rating Scale, given that these two instruments have similarity in the construct, and correlations above 0.30 between the Self-Estimated Functional Inability because of Pain questionnaire for workers and the domains 2, 3, and 4 of the Work Ability Index. Regarding reliability, we observed adequate reliability (intraclass correlation coefficient=0.864) and internal consistency (Cronbach’s alpha=0.807). CONCLUSION: The Self-Estimated Functional Inability because of Pain questionnaire for workers is a reliable and valid instrument to be used in Brazilian workers with musculoskeletal pain.

SUMMARY OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to translate, adapt, and analyze the reliability of the Workplace Sitting Breaks Questionnaire (SITBRQ) for use in Brazil. METHODS: This is a cross-sectional study. The translation and cross-cultural adaptation were conducted considering the following six phases: translation, synthesis of translations, back translation, analysis by a committee of experts, test of the pre-final version, and final version. We included workers aged 18 years or above, both genders, and able to understand, read, and write in Brazilian Portuguese. The final version was applied to workers in two moments (i.e., test and retest), with an interval of 7 days, for reliability calculation. RESULTS: In the translation and cross-cultural adaptation phase, the pre-final version was applied to a sample of 35 workers. For item a of the SITBRQ, there was 100% understanding by respondents, while item b was understood by 94.28%. The reliability phase was conducted with 115 workers. For both items, almost perfect was identified with kappa >0.81. CONCLUSIONS: The SITBRQ version into Brazilian Portuguese has adequate adaptation and excellent values of reliability.
