ABSTRACT

Resumo Entre 1879 e 1881 a corveta Vital de Oliveira realizou a primeira viagem de circum-navegação da Marinha Brasileira. Um dos itens que ocuparam as preocupações do comandante do navio, Júlio de Noronha, em seu relatório da viagem foi a alimentação; preocupação reforçada no relatório médico da expedição redigido pelo primeiro-cirurgião Galdino Magalhães. Essa preocupação ganhou destaque devido ao elevado saldo de enfermos e mortos durante a viagem, para o que teria contribuído a carência de determinados gêneros alimentícios, de acordo com ambos os relatórios. O artigo discute a relação entre a alimentação e a saúde das tripulações. Além disso, trata da relação entre a viagem da Vital e a implementação de uma nova tabela de rações efetivada em 1886.


Abstract The corvette Vital de Oliveira was the first Brazilian Navy vessel to circumnavigate the world, from 1879 to 1881. One of the items that concerned its captain, Júlio de Noronha, in his trip report was the food supply, which was further reinforced in the medical report for the expedition written by the head surgeon, Galdino Magalhães. This concern was notable due to the high numbers of sailors who sickened and died during the trip, which according to both reports may have been caused by shortages of certain foods. This article discusses the relationship between food and health in the crew, as well as the relationship between this journey and the implementation of a new ration table that took effect in 1886.

ABSTRACT

A fim de promover a comercialização de seus produtos as empresas procuram construir um discurso capaz de persuadir consumidores, acenando para as vantagens de seus produtos, associando-os a um estado de satisfação e felicidade. Todavia, algumas técnicas de produção, o uso de aditivos alimentares e outros ingredientes nocivos ou que tentem transmitir um atributo sensorial falso, e o desbalanceamento nutricional, não raramente, representam uma ameaça à saúde pública. Esta pesquisa foi centrada em alguns produtos cuja aceitabilidade é alta. O rótulo de duas amostras de produtos alimentícios foram analisados quanto aos seus aspectos semiolinguísticos e químico-nutricionais, podendo-se revelar as eventuais congruências e incongruências entre as ideias transmitidas e as imagens vendidas pelo marketing embutido no rótulo, e o real valor nutricional dos alimentos.

ABSTRACT

Purpose: Post-prostatectomy incontinence remains a problem, even in minor or moderate degrees. In order to minimize surgical morbidity and costs, sling procedures have been proposed. The authors have developed a new transobturator male sling procedure and report their results after one-year experience. Materials and methods: A prospective multicenter study was conducted in 50 patients with minor or moderate post-prostatectomy incontinence. Evaluation of TOMS™ two arms bulbar sling was based on clinical form assessment, The International Consultation on Incontinence Questionnaire (ICIQ) and short-form (SF) 36 questionnaire pre and postoperatively and at 3, 6, 9 and 12 months. Results: The surgical procedure was considered easy to perform and no post-surgery complication was reported except for one retention. The median number of pads per day decreased significantly from 2 pads before surgery (95 percent CI: 2 - 3) to 1 during the follow-up period (95 percent CI: 0 - 2 at 360 days), and at 3 months patients using none or one pad per day were 30 percent and 32 percent respectively. The SF 36 continence and quality of life score improved from a median of 100 (95 percent CI: 83 - 133) to 300 (95 percent CI: 167 - 375), and the median ICIQ incontinence and quality of life score decreased from 15 (95 percent CI: 14 - 16) to 8 (95 percent CI: 5 - 12) one year after surgery. Conclusion: The transobturator perineal male sling TOMS™ is an attractive simple sling technique for moderate or minor post-prostatectomy stress incontinence and offers an improvement in the quality of life.
