ABSTRACT

Com a implementação do Sistema Único de Saúde (SUS) a partir dos anos 90, observase a passagem de um sistema político, administrativo e financeiramente centralizado para um cenário em que milhares de agentes passam a se constituir sujeitos fundamentais no campo da saúde. Entender como esses diferentes atores conseguiram absorver e garantir à comunidade o direito de participar na tomada de decisão em política pública de saúde foi o objetivo deste trabalho, que procura investigar o discurso democrático e a prática participativa implementada pelo Partido dos Trabalhadores (PT) no município de Ipatinga (MG). Utilizamos como referencial a Teoria da Ação Comunicativa, de Habermas, e a partir dela um modelo de democracia entendido como a institucionalização dos processos discursivos de formação da opinião e da vontade. A partir desse referencial teórico, integrado aos principais pressupostos da Reforma Sanitária Brasileira, foi feito o estudo das políticas municipais de saúde de Ipatinga, no que diz respeito às suas bases e relações democráticas. Os resultados obtidos indicam que há uma importante história democrática no município, com indícios, no entanto, de retrocessos na prática participativa do setor saúde, pois atualmente verifica-se uma reprodução de práticas tradicionais de governar.


Since the SUS implementation in the 90's, it has been possible to observe the change from a political, administrative, and financially centered system to a scene where thousands of agents started to constitute fundamental citizens in the field of health. The objective of this work is to understand how these different actors have absorbed and guaranteed the community the right to participate in the decision of public health policies. This research also tries to investigate the democratic speech and the participative practice implemented by the Worker's Party (PT) in the city of Ipatinga (MG, Brazil). This work uses as theoretical referential the Communicative Action Theory of Habermas and, from this theory, a model of democracy which is understood as the institutionalization of the discursive processes of opinion and will formation. The results obtained indicate that there is an important democratic history in the city, but with indications, however, of retrocessions in the participative practices of the health sector, as the reproduction of traditional practices of government is verified.

ABSTRACT

Cytokines and adhesion molecules have been implicated in the pathogenesis of multiple sclerosis (MS), a chronic inflammatory disease of the central nervous system. In this study we analyzed intrathecal (CSF) and serum levels of soluble intercellular adhesion molecule (ICAM-1) and TNFalphaR (60kD) from 20 patients with clinically definite MS during acute relapse or stable disease. Comparing to control groups of healthy individuals and patients with intervertebral herniated disc, MS patients showed increased levels (p< 0.001) of sICAM-1 and TNFalphaR in both serum and CSF samples. Regardless stage of disease there was no significant difference in the levels of sICAM-1 during acute relapse (657 + or - 124.9 ng/ml) or remission (627 + or - 36.2 ng/ml). A steady increase of TNFalphaR (60kD) in both serum and CSF, indicate the existence of a continuous inflammatory process within the brain tissue of MS patients despite absence of clinical signs of disease activity
