RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: To analyze the spatial flow of care for patients undergoing dialysis therapy in the health regions of the State of Minas Gerais. METHODS: Ecological study whose population was patients undergoing dialysis therapy in public, philanthropic institutions or whose treatment was paid for by the Unified Health System in private clinics in partnership, in the State of Minas Gerais. Patients were grouped by health region of residence. The proportions of patients who underwent dialysis were calculated, as well as enrollment on the kidney transplant list in their own region of residence or outside it. Person correlations of these proportions with socioeconomic and care indicators of the health regions were estimated. Spatial exploratory techniques estimated general (Moran's I) and local (LISA) spatial correlation coefficients. RESULTS: Regions with higher GDP had a higher number of nephrologists and a higher proportion of registrations in the region of residence. A cluster of regions with low GDP was identified further to the northeast of the State (also with lower nephrologist ratio values), a cluster with a high proportion of those registered on the transplant list in the center of the State, and a cluster with a low proportion of dialysis in the same region of residence further southeast. CONCLUSION: Regional disparities were evident in relation to the proportion of patients registered on the waiting list for kidney transplantation, the proportion of patients undergoing dialysis in the same region of residence and the proportion of patients registered on the waiting list for kidney transplantation in the same region of residence. residence.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the knowledge of senior dental students and newly graduated dentists about the prevention, diagnosis and treatment of oral manifestations of syphilis. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A 32-question questionnaire was designed with three domains: (I) demographic, academic and professional data of the participants, (II) attitudes, practices and self-perception regarding training about syphilis and (III) knowledge about syphilis. All knowledge responses were classified as correct or incorrect. Scores ranging from 1 to 14 were calculated, and grades were assigned to each participant according to their level of knowledge. RESULTS: The sample comprised 408 dental students and 339 newly graduated dentists. The mean score was 7.70 ± 3.35 for undergraduates and 9.09 ± 3265 for dentists. The highest frequency of correct answers (>70%) was attributed to questions about the aetiology, transmission and treatment of syphilis. The questions with the lowest frequency of correct answers (<50%) were about the identification of oral manifestations and stages of syphilis. CONCLUSIONS: The knowledge of dental practitioners and academics about the oral manifestations of syphilis was unsatisfactory. The lack of understanding of these aspects can delay the diagnosis and treatment of patients with this disease, which is concerning given the steady increase in cases in recent years.

RESUMO

Improvement in treatment options has increased the survival of people living with HIV (PLHIV). Thus, we evaluated the factors associated with better health-related quality of life (HRQoL) among PLHIV in Brazil. This was a cross-sectional study carried out among 349 PLHIV. Data were collected using an interview-based questionnaire, and HRQoL was assessed by the Brazilian version of the WHOQOL HIV BREF instrument. We used non-hierarchical cluster analysis (K-means) to compile the WHOQOL HIV BREF's overall and domain scores into a unique more multidimensional measure for HRQoL consisting of three clusters: poor, fair and good; associations with clusters of better HRQoL were assessed using multinomial logistic regression models. The mean and median overall HRQoL scores were 15.13 (SD = 3.39) and 16, respectively. The reliability and validity of the Brazilian version of the WHOQOL HIV BREF instrument was confirmed among PLHIV in a non-metropolitan, medium-sized municipality of Brazil, which reaffirmed the cross-cultural validity of this instrument. The factors male sex; heterosexual and asexual orientations; higher individual income; undetectable viral load; absence of any comorbidity and presence of an infectious or a chronic comorbidity, with mental illness as the reference; and never having consumed illegal substances were independently associated with good HRQoL. Thus, the compilation of the WHOQOL HIV BREF's overall and domain scores into a unique multidimensional measure for HRQoL, which this study proposed for the first time, may facilitate more robust interpretations and models of predictors. These differentials could simplify HRQoL as an indicator of health and wellbeing to be routinely used as a key outcome in the clinical management of patients and in the global monitoring of health system responses to HIV.

RESUMEN: La mejora en las opciones de tratamiento ha aumentado la supervivencia de las personas que viven con el VIH (PVVIH). Por lo tanto, evaluamos los factores asociados con una mejor calidad de vida relacionada con la salud (CVRS) entre las PVVIH en Brasil. Se trata de un estudio transversal realizado con 349 PVVIH. Los datos se recopilaron mediante un cuestionario basado en entrevistas y la CVRS se evaluó mediante la versión brasileña del instrumento WHOQOL VIH BREF. Usamos un análisis de conglomerados no jerárquico (K-medias) para compilar las puntuaciones generales y de dominios del WHOQOL HIV BREF en una medida única más multidimensional para la CVRS que consta de tres conglomerados: deficiente, regular y bueno; y las asociaciones con grupos de mejor CVRS se evaluaron mediante modelos de regresión logística multinomial. Las puntuaciones de la CVRS global media y mediana fueron 15,13 (DE = 3,39) y 16. La confiabilidad y validez del WHOQOL VIH BREF versión brasileña fue confirmada entre personas que viven con el VIH en un municipio no metropolitano de mediana población de Brasil, lo que reafirma la validez transcultural de este instrumento. Los factores sexo masculino; orientaciones heterosexuales y asexuales; mayores ingresos individuales; carga viral indetectable; ausencia de comorbilidad y presencia de comorbilidad infecciosa o crónica, teniendo como referencia la enfermedad mental; y nunca haber consumido sustancias ilegales se asociaron de forma independiente con una buena CVRS. Por lo tanto, la compilación de las puntuaciones generales y de dominio del WHOQOL HIV BREF en una medida multidimensional única para la CVRS, que este estudio propuso por primera vez, puede facilitar interpretaciones y modelos de predictores más robustos. Estos diferenciales podrían simplificar la HRQoL como un indicador de salud y bienestar para ser utilizado de forma rutinaria como un resultado clave en el manejo clínico de los pacientes y en el monitoreo global de las respuestas del sistema de salud al VIH.

RESUMO Objetivo: Analisar o fluxo espacial da assistência de pacientes em terapia dialítica nas regionais de saúde do estado de Minas Gerais. Métodos: Estudo ecológico que teve como população pacientes incidentes em terapia dialítica em instituições públicas, filantrópicas ou que tiveram seu tratamento custeado pelo Sistema Único de Saúde em clínicas privadas conveniadas, no estado de Minas Gerais. Os pacientes foram agregados por regional de saúde de residência. Foram calculadas as proporções de pacientes que fizeram diálise, bem como a inscrição na lista de transplante renal em sua própria região de residência ou fora dela. Estimadas as correlações de Person destas proporções com indicadores socioeconômicos e assistenciais das regionais de saúde. Técnicas exploratórias espaciais estimaram coeficientes de correlação espacial geral (I de Moran) e local (LISA). Resultados: Regiões com maior PIB apresentaram maior razão de nefrologistas e maior proporção de inscrições na própria região de residência. Identificou-se um cluster de regiões com PIB baixo mais ao nordeste do estado (também com valores mais baixos de razão de nefrologistas), um cluster de alta proporção de inscritos na lista de transplante no centro do estado, e um cluster de baixa proporção de diálise na mesma região de residência mais ao sudeste. Conclusão: Evidenciou-se disparidades regionais em relação à proporção de inscritos na lista de espera para o transplante renal, proporção de pacientes que realizavam diálise na mesma região de residência e proporção de pacientes inscritos na lista de espera para o transplante renal na mesma região de residência.

RESUMO

Objetivo: estimar as expectativas negativas sobre a vida pós-cárcere com relação à condição de saúde e de trabalho e os fatores associados à essas duas variáveis em mulheres privadas de liberdade. Método: estudo transversal, por meio de censo com 99 mulheres que estivessem em cumprimento de pena nos regimes provisório, fechado e semiaberto. Na análise dos dados, foram empregados o teste qui-quadrado e a regressão de Poisson. Na análise múltipla dos fatores associados ao desfecho, foi construído um modelo teórico de determinação com blocos hierarquizados. Resultados: o modelo final ajustado mostrou que a expectativa negativa pós-cárcere em relação à condição de saúde se associou à autoavaliação negativa de saúde (RP: 6,14; IC95%: 2,27-16,60). A expectativa negativa pós-cárcere sobre a condição de trabalho se associou com as expectativas negativas pós-cárcere em relação a vida pessoal (RP: 7,65; IC95%: 2,82-20,79) e ao padrão de vida. Conclusão: as associações encontradas no estudo demonstram a importância de investimento em políticas de saúde e trabalho para melhores condições futuras pós-encarceramento(AU)

Objective: to estimate negative expectations about post-prison life in relation to health and work conditions and the factors associated with these two variables in women deprived of liberty. Method: cross-sectional study, through a census with 99 women who were serving sentences in the provisional, closed and semi-open regimes. In data analysis, the chi-square test and Poisson regression were used. In the multiple analysis of the factors associated with the outcome, a theoretical model of determination with hierarchical blocks was built. Results: the final adjusted model showed that post-prison negative expectations regarding health conditions were associated with negative self-rated health (PR: 6.14; 95%CI: 2.27-16.60). Negative post-prison expectations about work conditions were associated with post-prison negative expectations about personal life (PR: 7.65; 95%CI: 2.82-20.79) and standard of living. Conclusion: the associations found in the study demonstrate the importance of investing in health and work policies for better post-incarceration future conditions(AU)

Objetivo: estimar las expectativas negativas sobre la vida después de la cárcel en relación con las condiciones de salud y de trabajo y los factores asociados a esas dos variables en mujeres privadas de libertad. Método: Estudio transversal mediante censo con 99 mujeres que cumplían condena en regímenes temporal, cerrado y semiabierto. En el análisis de los datos, se utilizó la prueba de chi-cuadrado y la regresión de Poisson. En el análisis múltiple de los factores asociados al resultado, se construyó un modelo teórico de determinación con bloques jerárquicos. Resultados: El modelo final ajustado mostró que la expectativa negativa después del periodo en la cárcel, con respecto al estado de salud, se asoció con la autoevaluación negativa de salud (RP: 6,14; IC 95%: 2,27-16,60). La expectativa negativa post carcelaria sobre las condiciones de trabajo se asoció con las expectativas negativas post carcelarias sobre la vida personal (RP: 7,65; IC 95%: 2,82-20,79) y el nivel de vida. Conclusión: Las asociaciones encontradas en el estudio demuestran la importancia de invertir en políticas de salud y trabajo para mejorar las condiciones futuras después del encarcelamiento(AU)

RESUMO

Objetivo: identificar a prevalência e fatores associados à ansiedade e depressão em mulheres adultas privadas de liberdade. Métodos: trata-se de uma revisão integrativa, orientada por uma questão de pesquisa e conduzida nas bases BDENF, IBECS, LILACS e Medline, acessadas via BVS, além da SciELO. Foi elaborada uma estratégia de busca única contemplando descritores, palavras-chave e fazendo uso de operadores booleanos. Os critérios de inclusão foram estudos primários publicados em português ou inglês; que responderam à questão de pesquisa; realizados com a população do sexo feminino adulta (18 anos ou mais) privada de liberdade; publicados entre 2015 a 2020. Para a seleção, foi realizada leitura do título, do resumo e do manuscrito como um todo. Resultados: de 157 artigos encontrados, 11 foram selecionados, sendo que desses, cinco (45,5%) estudos trouxeram dados apenas sobre depressão, três (27,8%) sobre ansiedade e sobre depressão e dois (18,2%) apenas sobre ansiedade. Verificou-se elevadas prevalências de transtornos depressivos e ansiosos, com fatores associados às condições de vida, de encarceramento e de saúde. Conclusão: o conhecimento dos fatores associados aos dois transtornos mentais mais prevalentes faz-se essencial para que as equipes da Rede de Atenção à Saúde, em especial às da Atenção Primária à Saúde lotadas em unidades prisionais, possam ampliar e qualificar os serviços ofertados, visando garantia de atenção integral.

RESUMO

Para garantia da integralidade do cuidado é importante ressaltar a participação dos Cirurgiões-Dentistas no contexto da atenção básica, incluindo a realização do Pré-natal odontológico, permitindo a assistência odontológica durante esse período. O objetivo deste estudo é avaliar a realização do Pré-natal odontológico pelos Cirurgiões-Dentistas da Atenção Primária à Saúde pertencentes às microrregiões de saúde de jurisdição da Superintendência Regional de Saúde de Juiz de Fora (SRS-JF/MG) e discutir possíveis impactos do novo financiamento da Atenção Básica. Trata-se de um estudo transversal observacional, realizado por meio do web survey com aplicação de um questionário sociodemográfico e de prática de pré-natal odontológico. Foi direcionado para 170 Cirurgiões-Dentistas pertencentes aos 37 municípios da microrregião mineira. Os dados foram analisados utilizando o software estatístico Jamovi, adotando um intervalo de confiança de 95% e nível de significância de 5%. Dentre os respondentes,69,1% realizam o Pré-natal odontológico, sendo a sua carga horária de trabalho na Unidade Básica de Saúde o principal fator inviabilizador dessa atividade. Portanto, conclui-se que os Cirurgiões-Dentistas da APS pertencentes aos municípios que integram a SRS-JF/MG realizam o Pré-natal odontológico, sendo a carga horária de trabalho, o principal limitador para o alcance de melhoras nesse indicador.

To guarantee the integrality of care, it is important to emphasize the participation of Dental Surgeons in the context of primary care, including the completion of Dental Prenatal, allowing dental care during this period. The objective of this study is to evaluate the performance of dental prenatal care by Dental Surgeons of Primary Health Care belonging to the health micro-regions under the jurisdiction of the Regional Health Superintendence of Juiz de Fora (SRS-JF/MG) and to discuss possible impacts on the new primary care funding. This is an observational cross-sectional study, carried out through a web survey with the application of a sociodemographic and dental prenatal practice questionnaire. It was directed to 170 Dental Surgeons belonging tothe 37 municipalities of the Minas Gerais micro-region. Data were analyzed using the Jamovi statistical software, adopting a 95% confidence interval and significance level of 5%. Among the respondents, 69.1% perform the Dental Prenatal, and their workloadat the Basic Health Unit is the main limiting factor for carrying out this activity. Therefore, it is concluded that the Dental Surgeons of the APS belonging to the municipalities that make up the SRS-JF/MG perform dental prenatal care, with the workload being the main limiting factor for the achievement of improvements in this indicator.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVES: The main objective of the study was to describe and compare the feasibility of using fractional CO2 laser to the usual treatment with Clobetasol. Randomized clinical trials brought together 20 women from a Brazilian university hospital, 9 of them were submitted to Clobetasol treatment and 11 to laser therapy. Sociodemographic data were obtained and quality of life parameters, vulvar anatomy, self-perception and histopathological analysis of vulvar biopsies were evaluated. Evaluations were made before the beginning of the treatment, during its implementation, right after its completion (3 months), and 12 months after. The SPSS 14.0 software was used, obtaining descriptive measurements. The level of significance adopted was 5%. RESULTS: The clinical/anatomical characteristics of the vulva did not differ between the treatment groups, as much before as after its performance. There was no statistically significant difference between the treatments performed regarding the impact on the life quality of the patients. A higher satisfaction degree with the treatment was obtained with the patients in the Laser group in the third month of evaluation. Laser therapy also revealed higher occurrence of telangiectasia after treatment completion. Fractional CO2 laser has proven to be well accepted and is a promising therapeutic option. Registration number and name of trial registry The institutional review board status was approved by the Research Ethics Committee of HU/ UFJF under advisory number 2881073 and registered in the Brazilian Clinical Trials, with consent under registration RBR-4p9s5y.

RESUMO

Introdução: A análise dos serviços primários quanto ao seu grau de orientação à Atenção Primária à Saúde (APS), a partir da mensuração de seus atributos, é essencial para a efetividade da assistência. Objetivo: Avaliar a presença e a extensão dos atributos integralidade e acesso de primeiro contato nos serviços odontológicos primários do município de Juiz de Fora (MG), sob a perspectiva de cirurgiões-dentistas. Métodos: Trata-se de um estudo transversal realizado por meio da aplicação online do Instrumento de Avaliação da Atenção Primária (PCATool-Brasil Saúde Bucal) para dentistas.Resultados: O atributo acesso de primeiro contato obteve baixo desempenho (5,2), enquanto a integralidade obteve alto desempenho em seus dois componentes. Conclusão: Concluiu-se que os serviços odontológicos primários de Juiz de Fora (MG) estão orientados à APS sob ponto de vista da integralidade. Contudo, carecem de melhor planejamento e novas políticas que garantam acesso, haja vista a sua baixa orientação.

Introduction: The analysis of primary services regarding their degree of orientation to Primary Health Care (PHC), based on the measurement of their attributes, is essential for the effectiveness of care. Objective: To evaluate the presence and extent of the integrality and first-contact access attributes in primary dental services in the city of Juiz de Fora (MG), from the perspective of dentists. Method: This is a cross-sectional study carried out through the online application of the Primary Care Assessment Tool (PCATool-Brazil Oral Health) for dentists. Results: The first contact access attribute had low performance (5.2), while integrality had high performance in its two components. Conclusion: It was concluded that the primary dental services in Juiz de Fora (MG) are oriented to PHC from the point of view of integrality. However, they lack better planning and new policies that guarantee access, given their low orientation.
