ABSTRACT Objective: To assess the impact of different vertical positions on lung aeration in patients receiving invasive mechanical ventilation. Methods: An open-label randomized crossover clinical trial was conducted between January and July 2020. Adults receiving invasive mechanical ventilation for > 24 hours and < 7 days with hemodynamic, respiratory and neurological stability were randomly assigned at a 1:1 ratio to the sitting position followed by passive orthostasis condition or the passive orthostasis followed by the sitting position condition. The primary outcome was lung aeration assessed using the lung ultrasound score (score ranges from 0 [better] to 36 [worse]). Results: A total of 186 subjects were screened; of these subjects, 19 were enrolled (57.8% male; mean age, 73.2 years). All participants were assigned to receive at least one verticalization protocol. Passive orthostasis resulted in mean lung ultrasound scores that did not differ significantly from the sitting position (11.0 versus 13.7; mean difference, -2.7; [95%CI -6.1 to 0.71; p = 0.11). Adverse events occurred in three subjects in the passive orthostasis group and in one in the sitting position group (p = 0.99). Conclusion: This analysis did not find significant differences in lung aeration between the sitting and passive orthostasis groups. A randomized crossover clinical trial assessing the impact of vertical positioning on lung aeration in patients receiving invasive mechanical ventilation is feasible. Unfortunately, the study was interrupted due to the need to treat COVID-19 patients. ClinicalTrials.gov registry: NCT04176445

RESUMO Objetivo: Avaliar o impacto de diferentes posicionamentos verticais na aeração pulmonar em pacientes em ventilação mecânica invasiva. Métodos: Trata-se de ensaio clínico aberto, randomizado e transversal, realizado entre janeiro e julho de 2020. Adultos em ventilação mecânica invasiva por mais de 24 horas e menos de 7 dias com estabilidade hemodinâmica, respiratória e neurológica foram distribuídos aleatoriamente em uma proporção de 1:1 à postura sentada seguida da condição de ortostatismo passivo ou o ortostatismo passivo seguido de postura sentada. O desfecho primário foi a aeração pulmonar avaliada pelo lung ultrasound score. O escore varia de zero (melhor) a 36 (pior). Resultados: Foram selecionados 186 indivíduos; destes, 19 foram incluídos (57,8% do sexo masculino; média idade de 73,2 anos). Todos os participantes foram selecionados para receber pelo menos um protocolo de verticalização. O ortostatismo passivo resultou em escores médios de aeração pulmonar por ultrassonografia que não diferiram significativamente da postura sentada (11,0 versus 13,7; diferença média, -2,7; IC95% -6,1 a 0,71; p = 0,11). Ocorreram eventos adversos em três indivíduos no grupo ortostatismo passivo e em um no grupo postura sentada (p = 0,99). Conclusão: Esta análise não encontrou diferenças significativas na aeração pulmonar entre os grupos ortostatismo passivo e postura sentada. É factível conduzir um estudo clínico transversal randomizado para avaliar o impacto do posicionamento vertical na aeração pulmonar em pacientes em ventilação mecânica invasiva. Infelizmente, o estudo foi interrompido devido à necessidade de tratar pacientes com COVID-19. Registro ClinicalTrials.gov: NCT04176445

Abstract This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to analyze the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on dental trauma patient attendance. The study was registered in the PROSPERO system, using the CRD42021288398 protocol. Searching was performed in PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, Embase, Lilacs, and OpenGrey databases, using the following keywords: “Tooth injuries,” “Dental trauma,” “Traumatic Dental injury,” and “COVID-19". We included observational studies evaluating dental trauma in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic. Quality assessment was performed using the Joanna Briggs Institute Critical Appraisal Checklist for Cross-Sectional Studies. Meta-analysis was performed in RevMan 5.4 software with Odds Ratios as a pooled measure of effect, with a 95% confidence interval, and using random-effects modeling. After applying the eligibility criteria, 32 studies were included for qualitative analysis, in which 10 were used to assess the frequency of dental trauma diagnoses in dental emergencies. Despite the decrease of visits during COVID-19, the analysis revealed no difference between the pandemic and pre-pandemic periods. Regarding the type of dental trauma, two of the studies revealed no differences for the periods before and during the pandemic. This study revealed that the COVID-19 pandemic has not impacted the frequency or type of dental trauma compared to previous periods.

Abstract: En Pt

This article presents the history and construction of the National Health Survey (PNS) 2019, a household survey conducted in partnership with the Brazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics. The objective was to provide the country with information on the determinants, conditions and health needs of the Brazilian population. The expected sample was 108,525 households, considering a non-response rate of 20%. The questionnaire had three parts: (i) regarding the household; (ii) to all residents of the household, focusing on the collection of socioeconomic and health information; and (iii) aimed at the selected resident (15 years or more) for whom lifestyles, chronic diseases, violence, among other topics were investigated, and anthropometric measures (sub-sample) were measured. The PNS information will serve as a basis for the (re)formulation of health policies, as well as support for existing actions and programs of the Unified Health System.

Este artigo apresenta o histórico e a construção da Pesquisa Nacional de Saúde (PNS) 2019, inquérito de base domiciliar realizado em parceria com a fundação Instituto Brasileiro de Geografia e Estatística. O objetivo da PNS 2019 foi dotar o país de informações sobre os determinantes, condicionantes e necessidades de saúde da população brasileira. A amostra prevista foi de 108.525 domicílios particulares, considerando-se uma taxa de não resposta de 20%. Seu questionário continha três partes, orientadas para (i) o domicílio, (ii) todos os moradores do domicílio, com enfoque na coleta de informações socioeconômicas e de saúde, e (iii) o morador selecionado (idade ≥15 anos), sobre o qual investigou-se estilos de vida, doenças crônicas, violências, entre outros temas, e aferiu-se medidas antropométricas (subamostra). As informações da PNS 2019 servirão de base para a (re)formulação de políticas de saúde e subsídio a ações e programas existentes do Sistema Único de Saúde.

Abstract: Psoriasis is a chronic inflammatory disease that affects 1.3% of the Brazilian population. The most common clinical manifestations are erythematous, scaling lesions that affect both genders and can occur on any anatomical site, preferentially involving the knees, elbows, scalp and genitals. Besides the impact on the quality of life, the systemic nature of the disease makes psoriasis an independent risk factor for cardiovascular disease, especially in young patients with severe disease. By an initiative of the Brazilian Society of Dermatology, dermatologists with renowned clinical experience in the management of psoriasis were invited to form a work group that, in a partnership with the Brazilian Medical Association, dedicated themselves to create the Plaque Psoriasis Diagnostic and Treatment Guidelines. The relevant issues for the diagnosis (evaluation of severity and comorbidities) and treatment of plaque psoriasis were defined. The issues generated a search strategy in the Medline-PubMed database up to July 2018. Subsequently, the answers to the questions of the recommendations were devised, and each reference selected presented the respective level of recommendation and strength of scientific evidence. The final recommendations for making up the final text were worded by the coordinators.

A primeira parte desta diretriz abordou o diagnóstico diferencial das neurofibromatoses (NF): neurofibromatose do tipo 1 (NF1), neurofibromatose do tipo 2 (NF2) e schwannomatose (SCH). As NF compartilham algumas características, como a origem neural dos tumores e sinais cutâneos, e afetam cerca de 80 mil brasileiros. O aumento do conhecimento científico sobre as NF tem permitido melhor manejo clínico e redução da morbidade das complicações, resultando em melhor qualidade de vida para os pacientes com NF. A maioria dos médicos é capaz de realizar o diagnóstico das NF, mas a variedade de manifestações clínicas e a dificuldade de se prever o surgimento e a gravidade de complicações, torna o manejo da NF um desafio para o clínico e envolve diferentes especialistas para o tratamento adequado e aconselhamento genético, especialmente a NF2 e a SCH. O presente texto sugere algumas orientações para o acompanhamento dos portadores de NF, com ênfase na NF1.

Part 1 of this guideline addressed the differential diagnosis of the neurofibromatoses (NF): neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1), neurofibromatosis type 2 (NF2) and schwannomatosis (SCH). NF shares some features such as the genetic origin of the neural tumors and cutaneous manifestations, and affects nearly 80 thousand Brazilians. Increasing scientific knowledge on NF has allowed better clinical management and reduced rate of complications and morbidity, resulting in higher quality of life for NF patients. Most medical doctors are able to perform NF diagnosis, but the wide range of clinical manifestations and the inability to predict the onset or severity of new features, consequences, or complications make NF management a real clinical challenge, requiring the support of different specialists for proper treatment and genetic counseling, especially in NF2 and SCH. The present text suggests guidelines for the clinical management of NF, with emphasis on NF1.

Este estudo investiga fatores sociais e clínicos associados à migração entre pessoas afetadas pela hanseníase. Estudo transversal entre recém- diagnosticados com hanseníase (2006-2008), em 79 municípios endêmicos do Estado de Tocantins, Brasil (N = 1.074). No total, 76,2% nasceram em município diferente de sua residência atual. Nos cinco anos antes do diagnóstico, 16,7% migraram, e 3,6% migraram após o diagnóstico da hanseníase. Resultados refletem aspectos associados com o movimento histórico da população rural-urbana no Brasil. Indicadores de pobreza foram proeminentes antes do diagnóstico de migrantes. A migração após o diagnóstico foi associada com migração anterior. A associação da forma multibacilar com migração indica que o acesso à saúde pode ser um obstáculo para o diagnóstico precoce de migrantes, o que pode também estar relacionado com a elevada mobilidade desse grupo.

This study investigates social and clinical factors associated with migration among individuals affected by leprosy. A cross-sectional study was conducted among those newly diagnosed with leprosy (2006-2008), in 79 endemic municipalities in the state of Tocantins, Brazil (N = 1,074). In total, 76.2% were born in a municipality different from their current residence. In the five years before diagnosis 16.7% migrated, and 3.6% migrated after leprosy diagnosis. Findings reflect aspects associated with historical rural-urban population movement in Brazil. Indicators of poverty were prominent among before-diagnosis migrants but not after-diagnosis migrants. Migration after diagnosis was associated with prior migration. The association of multibacillary leprosy with migration indicates healthcare access may be an obstacle to early diagnosis among before-diagnosis migrants, which may also be related to the high mobility of this group.

Este estudio investiga los factores sociales y clínicos asociados con la migración entre las personas afectadas por lepra. Un estudio transversal se llevó a cabo entre las personas recién diagnosticadas con lepra (2006-2008), en 79 municipios endémicos en el estado de Tocantins, Brasil (N = 1,074). En total, el 76,2% nacieron en otro municipio diferente a su residencia actual. En los cinco años antes del diagnóstico el 16,7% emigró, y el 3,6% migró después del diagnóstico de lepra. Los resultados reflejan aspectos relacionados con el movimiento histórico de la población rural-urbana en Brasil. Los indicadores de pobreza fueron sobresalientes entre el grupo de migrantes antes del diagnóstico. La migración tras el diagnóstico se asoció a una migración anterior. La asociación de lepra multibacilar con migración indica que el acceso a la atención médica puede ser un obstáculo para el diagnóstico temprano en el grupo de migrantes antes de la migración.

Neurofibromatoses (NF) constituem um grupo de doenças genéticas com predisposição ao crescimento de múltiplos tumores: tipo 1 (NF1), tipo 2 (NF2) e schwannomatose (SCH). Estas doenças têm em comum a origem neural dos tumores e os sinais cutâneos. Afetam cerca de 80 mil brasileiros. O maior conhecimento científico sobre as NF tem permitido melhor manejo clínico, redução da morbidade das complicações e melhor qualidade de vida. Na maioria dos casos, os especialistas em neurologia, dermatologia, genética clínica, oncologia e medicina interna estão capacitados a realizar o diagnóstico diferencial e identificar suas principais complicações. Devido à sua variabilidade fenotípica, curso progressivo, multiplicidade de órgãos acometidos e evolução imprevisível, as NF frequentemente necessitam de especialistas em NF para o acompanhamento. A Parte 1 deste texto oferece orientações para o diagnóstico de cada tipo de NF e discute os diagnósticos diferenciais com outras doenças. A Parte 2 oferecerá orientações em relação ao manejo clínico das NF.

Neurofibromatoses (NF) are a group of genetic multiple tumor growing predisposition diseases: neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1), neurofibromatosis type 2 (NF2) and schwannomatosis (SCH), which have in common the neural origin of tumors and cutaneous signs. They affect nearly 80 thousand of Brazilians. In recent years, the increased scientific knowledge on NF has allowed better clinical management and reduced complication morbidity, resulting in higher quality of life for NF patients. In most cases, neurology, psychiatry, dermatology, clinical geneticists, oncology and internal medicine specialists are able to make the differential diagnosis between NF and other diseases and to identify major NF complications. Nevertheless, due to its great variability in phenotype expression, progressive course, multiple organs involvement and unpredictable natural evolution, NF often requires the support of neurofibromatoses specialists for proper treatment and genetic counseling. This Part 1 offers step-by-step guidelines for NF differential diagnosis. Part 2 will present the NF clinical management.

Este trabalho é um estudo bibliográfico-exploratório com o objetivo de problematizar o campo da promoção da saúde, localizando alguns de seus avanços e problemas no debate internacional e em sua configuração no Sistema Único de Saúde (SUS) brasileiro. Recorre, para esse fim, a textos e documentos no campo da promoção da saúde aproximando deles a discussão foucaultiana sobre a ação do biopoder, sobre a vida e as resistências que se manifestam nesse embate. Entende a promoção da saúde como um campo de discursos e práticas, saberes e poderes, atravessado, concomitantemente, por dimensões regulatórias e disciplinares, e por dimensões participativas e emancipatórias; e busca realizar uma "genealogia dos problemas" nessa arena. Analisa o Relatório Lalonde e suas repercussões, comenta as Cartas Internacionais de Promoção da Saúde, aborda o diferencial brasileiro com a presença de forças populares na construção das políticas de saúde. Aponta que o trabalho em promoção da saúde não é feito sem tensões, exigindo contínua atenção e um paciente empenho plural de gestores, técnicos e usuários, em que cada avanço inaugura novos perigos, o que demanda novas ações.

This work is an exploratory and bibliographic study that aims to analyze the health promotion field, identifying some of its advances and problems in the international debate and in its configuration in the Brazilian Health System (SUS). Thus, it uses texts and documents in the health promotion field in light of the Foucaultian discussion about the effects of biopower on life and the resistances that emerge in this clash. It understands health promotion as a field of discourses and practices, knowledge and powers, simultaneously intersected by regulatory and disciplinary dimensions and by participative and emancipatory dimensions, and tries to make a "genealogy of problems" in this arena. It analyzes the Lalonde Report and its repercussions, comments on the international charters of health promotion, and approaches the Brazilian scenario, marked by the presence of popular forces in the construction of health policies. It indicates that the health promotion work is not performed without tensions, requiring constant attention and a plural and patient effort of managers, technicians and the system's users, in which each advance gives rise to new dangers, calling for new actions.
