ABSTRACT

Abstract How might we define local innovation challenges that are user-centered but also address strategic goals, such as the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)? We propose a design process that introduces a relevant contribution to the practices of the Mission-oriented Innovation Policies (MIPs) field as it goes from Grand Societal Challenges (GSCs) to local innovation challenges, which are more relevant to local needs and capabilities of solution. The main goal of the design process is to go from a GSC, such as "access to health" and one of its missions, like "reducing chronic Non-Communicable Diseases (NCD)," to a more able-to-solve innovation challenge, passing by its mission, and different problems and aspects. Snowball sampling methods allow us to find and mobilize electable subjects and design thinking techniques to process problem mapping, election, and clustering, as well as create challenge statements. It was possible to translate GSC to the local reality while reducing contestation and complexity and producing a problem-grouped map with prioritization and three problem statements (challenges) with open phrasing and solution criteria to foster the users' desired outcomes.


Resumen ¿Cómo podemos definir desafíos locales de innovación local que estén centrados en el usuario pero que también aborden objetivos estratégicos, como los Objetivos de Desarrollo Sostenible (ODS)? Proponemos un proceso de diseño que introduce una contribución relevante a las prácticas en el campo de las políticas de innovación orientadas por misión (en inglés, Mission-oriented Innovation Policies - MIPs), ya que va desde los grandes desafíos sociales (en inglés, Grand Societal Challenges - GSCs), comenzando con los ODS, hasta los desafíos locales de innovación, que son más relevantes para necesidades locales y capacidades de solución. El objetivo principal del proceso de diseño es ir desde un GSC, como "acceso a la salud" y una de sus misiones, como "reducir las Enfermedades Crónicas No Transmisibles (ECNT)", a un desafío de innovación más concreto, pasando por la misión, y por diferentes problemas y aspectos. Los métodos de muestreo de bola de nieve nos permiten encontrar y movilizar sujetos elegibles, y técnicas de design thinking, procesar el mapeo, la elección y la agrupación de problemas; y crear declaraciones de desafío. Fue posible traducir GSC a la realidad local, al mismo tiempo que se reducía la contestación y la complejidad, y se producía un plano agrupado de problemas con priorización, y tres declaraciones de problemas (desafíos) con redacción abierta y criterios de solución para promover los resultados deseados por los usuarios.

ABSTRACT

Los sistemas de salud en todo el mundo están sufriendo transformaciones como consecuencia de situaciones que ejercen presiones de índole diversa que hacen no solo pertinente sino necesaria una reflexión acerca de los procesos formativos tanto de los profesionales de la salud como de las comunidades y personas del común, para que unos y otros sean partícipes de la construcción de condiciones adecuadas y sostenibles de salud y bienestar, en especial para todas y todos los colombianos. Sin embargo, tales acciones educativas requieren una articulación eficiente con un sistema de ciencia, tecnología e innovación en salud que permita la producción y apropiación de conocimiento en la frontera científica, así como la apropiación social por todos los actores sociales, de manera que se promuevan procesos de innovación tecnológica y social para responder a las necesidades y desafíos más urgentes de la salud individual y colectiva. En particular, se reflexiona sobre la necesidad de asumir lineamientos mundiales como los Objetivos de Desarrollo Sostenible y las propuestas de la Organización Mundial de la Salud. Adicionalmente, se propone tener en cuenta las ocho propuestas generales del foco de ciencias de la vida y de la salud de la Misión de Sabios 2019, así como las reflexiones particulares sobre educación para la salud: educación para una vida con bienestar, educación en salud: formación académica y profesional y educación para aportar a las acciones del sistema de salud.


Health systems around the world are undergoing transformations because of situations that exert pressures of a diverse type that make it not only pertinent, but also necessary, to analyze and modify the training processes of both health professionals and people of communities, so that both can take part in the construction of adequate and sustainable conditions of health and well-being, especially for all Colombians. However, such educational actions require an efficient articulation with a science, technology and innovation health system that allows the production and appropriation of knowledge in the scientific frontier, as well as the social appropriation by all social actors, so that they can develop processes of technological and social innovation to respond to the most urgent needs and challenges of individual and collective health. This paper reflects on the need to assume global guidelines such as the sustainable development goals and the proposals of the World Health Organization. Additionally, it considers the eight general proposals of the focus on life and health sciences of the Mission of Experts 2019, as well as the particular reflections on Health Education: education for a life with well-being, Health Education: academic and professional training, and Education to contribute to the actions of the health system.

ABSTRACT

Resumen Introducción: Las brechas de desigualdad entre zonas urbanas y rurales a nivel mundial y en especial en países en vía de desarrollo como Colombia, son cada vez mayores. Objetivo: Entre los principales fines de los Objetivos de Desarrollo Sostenible -ODS-, está la disminución de dichas brechas. En este artículo son analizados algunos indicadores que evidencian las diferencias existentes entre los territorios urbanos y rurales en Colombia, y la manera como el sector de la economía social y solidaria, especialmente el sector cooperativo, ha contribuido en dicho fin. Materiales y Métodos: Lo anterior bajo un enfoque social cualitativo con método comparativo que busca a partir de la descripción y análisis estadístico de indicadores socioeconómicos, la relación entre el cumplimiento de los ODS y la contribución del sector cooperativo en algunas zonas del país. Los resultados sugieren que en Colombia el mayor déficit de indicadores y carencias son congruentes. Conclusión: los ODS, se encuentran en las zonas rurales debido a la existencia de factores estructurales que harán muy difícil el cumplimiento y aporte de nuestro país a la agenda del 2030, por lo que se requiere de manera urgente la intervención de otros actores.


Abstract Introduction: The inequality gaps between urban and rural areas worldwide and especially in developing countries such as Colombia, are increasing. Objective: Among the main purposes of the Sustainable Development Goals -ODS-, is the reduction of these gaps. In this article, some indicators that show the differences between urban and rural territories in Colombia are analyzed, and the way in which the social and solidarity economy sector, especially the cooperative sector, has contributed to this end. Materials and Methods: The foregoing under a qualitative social approach with a comparative method that seeks from the description and statistical analysis of socioeconomic indicators, the relationship between compliance with the SDGs and the contribution of the cooperative sector in some areas of the country. The Results suggest that in Colombia the greatest deficit of indicators and deficiencies are consistent. Conclusion: the SDGs are found in rural areas due to the existence of structural factors that will make it very difficult for our country to comply with and contribute to the 2030 agenda, therefore that the intervention of other actors is urgently required.


Resumo Introdução: As lacunas de desigualdade entre áreas urbanas e rurais em todo o mundo e especialmente em países em desenvolvimento como a Colômbia estão aumentando. Objetivos: Entre os principais objetivos dos Objetivos de Desenvolvimento Sustentável -ODS-, está a redução dessas lacunas. Neste artigo, são analisados alguns indicadores que mostram as diferenças entre os territórios urbano e rural na Colômbia e a forma como o setor da economia social e solidária, especialmente o cooperativista, tem contribuído para esse fim. Materiais e métodos: O anterior sob uma abordagem social qualitativa com um método comparativo que busca a partir da descrição e análise estatística dos indicadores socioeconômicos, a relação entre o cumprimento dos ODS e a contribuição do setor cooperativo em algumas áreas do país.

ABSTRACT

Resumo O objetivo deste artigo é analisar as possibilidades de cumprimento da Meta 3.1 dos Objetivos de Desenvolvimento Sustentável pelo Brasil, a partir do diagnóstico sobre a situação da mortalidade materna nas Regiões de Saúde (CIR), em 2018, e as principais características desta mortalidade, entre 1996 e 2018, no país. Estudo com duas etapas articuladas: análise bibliográfica sobre a mortalidade materna no Brasil; e pesquisa no Sistema de Informação sobre Mortalidade (SIM). Em 2018, das 450 CIR, 159 apresentaram razão de mortalidade materna (RMM) superior a 70 por 100 mil nascidos vivos (NV). Entre 1996 e 2018, no Brasil, houve redução entre mulheres de 30 a 49 anos. Entretanto, a faixa de 10 a 29 anos permaneceu inalterada ao longo da série. A disseminação dos Comitês de Mortalidade Materna, o Programa de Humanização do Pré-Natal e Nascimento (PHPN), a Política Nacional de Atenção Integral à Saúde da Mulher (PNAISM) e a Rede Cegonha influenciaram melhorias na gravidez tardia, mas, não impactaram a prevenção dos óbitos entre mães jovens. O cumprimento do ODS 3.1 requer: a priorização das CIR com RMM superior a 70,0/100 mil NV; a qualificação dos serviços de pré-natal, com foco na atenção entre mulheres de 10 e 29 anos e nas complicações hipertensivas; a e legalização do aborto.


Abstract This article aims to analyze if it is possible for Brazil to meet the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) 3.1, based on a diagnosis of the situation of maternal mortality in the Health Regions (HRs) of Brazil, in 2018, and the main characteristics of this mortality between 1996 and 2018 in the country. The study consists of two articulated phases: (i) bibliographical analysis of maternal mortality in Brazil; (ii) study in the Mortality Information System (SIM, in Portuguese). In 2018, from the 450 HRs, 159 showed a maternal mortality rate (MMR) of above 70 per 100,000 live births (LBs). Between 1996 and 2018, in Brazil, there was a reduction among women 30 to 49 years of age. However, in the age group of 10 to 29 years, there was no change during the time studied. The dissemination of the Maternal Mortality Committees, the PHPN, the PNAISM, and the "Stork Network" have all contributed to improvements in late pregnancies; however, they were inefficient at preventing deaths among young mothers. Compliance with SDG 3.1 requires: prioritization of CIR with MMR greater than 70.0/100,000 LB; qualification of prenatal services, focusing on care among women aged 10 to 29 years and hypertensive complications; and legalization of abortion.

ABSTRACT

INTRODUCTION: Adolescence is characterized as a period of socio-historical construction, with manifestations strongly influenced by the socio-economic, political, and cultural factors of the environment where the adolescent lives. Thus, emphasis on the elaboration and construction of policies that direct to health-promoting practicesOBJECTIVE: To analyze the sustainable practices used to strengthen health-promoting actions for adolescents in line with the Sustainable Development Goal 3METHODS: Integrative review, carried out in the period of January 2020. The crossing was carried out on the CAPES Journals Portal, using the health descriptors: Sustainable Development, Health Care, Adolescent, Sustainable Development Indicators, in the databases MEDLINE, LILACS, Web of Science, Scielo. He listed as inclusion criteria: complete works, available and in Portuguese, English, and Spanish. Exclusion criteria: articles that do not provide abstracts, editorials, theoretical reflections, duplicate studies, experience reports, reviews, monographs, and abstracts in the annals of events. All crossings were performed in a foreign language, English, using the Boolean operator AND. The final sample consisted of 12 articlesRESULTS: It points to the implementation of sustainable practices to the adolescent public that can break with punctual and fragmented health care, emphasizing the expansion of practices aimed at access to health services that can actually meet their real health needs, income generation programs, and adoption of healthy eating, equity in health services and health education. It shows that the implementation of sustainable practices presents itself as a tool to achieve health promotion and as a paradigm shift in adolescent health careCONCLUSION: There was a need for health policies and actions for adolescents that can contribute to the development of health care aimed at health promotion. Thus, it evidences the need for disruption of specific health practices focusing only on the disease, making it a challenge to develop sustainable practices for adolescents regarding changes in actions in a health-promoting perspective


INTRODUÇÃO: A adolescência é caraterizada como um período de construção sócio-histórica, com manifestações fortemente influenciadas pelos fatores socioeconômicos, políticos e culturais do meio onde o adolescente vive. Desta forma, destaque para elaboração e construção de políticas que direcione para práticas promotoras de saúdeOBJETIVO: Analisar as práticas sustentáveis utilizadas para fortalecer ações promotoras de saúde para adolescentes alinhadas ao Objetivo do Desenvolvimento Sustentável 3MÉTODO: Revisão integrativa, realizada no período de janeiro de 2020.

ABSTRACT

Objectives: Education and awareness-raising are global health policy tools to modify public behavior towards antibiotic resistance. Considering the high frequency of antibiotic use and self-medication in Egypt, together with the lack of an awareness agenda, our objectives were to assess the knowledge and practices related to antibiotic use and resistance among patients attending dental clinics, and to evaluate the changes in knowledge following a specially designed one-on-one educational session. Material and Methods: A convenience sample of 310 dental patients participated in this study. A modified questionnaire was used to assess knowledge and practices related to antibiotic use and resistance. Second-year dental students were trained to administer the questionnaire and to use the educational materials they designed to raise awareness. Following the education session, patients completed another similar questionnaire to assess the changes in their knowledge. Results: Increasing awareness of antibiotic resistance can be an effective way to address the antibiotic resistance crisis. More than half of the participants (55.6%) did not know whether antibiotics treat diseases caused by bacterial or viral infections. The majority of participants (85.5%) had taken antibiotics during the last year, and (50.5%) of them had taken the same antibiotic more than once. Higher educational levels of the participants were significantly associated with a higher level of knowledge. Statistically significant increase in the percentages of correct answers to all questions were observed after the educational sessions. Conclusion: The one-on-one educational session is an effective approach to address the antibiotic resistance crisis (AU)


Objetivos: Educação e conscientização são ferramentas de política de saúde global para modificar o comportamento do público em relação à resistência aos antibióticos. Considerando a alta frequência de uso de antibióticos e automedicação no Egito, juntamente com a falta de uma agenda de conscientização, nossos objetivos foram avaliar o conhecimento e as práticas relacionadas ao uso de antibióticos e resistência entre pacientes atendidos em clínicas odontológicas, e avaliar as mudanças em conhecimento após uma sessão educacional especialmente projetada para este assunto. Material e Métodos: Uma amostra de 310 pacientes odontológicos participou deste estudo. Um questionário modificado foi usado para avaliar o conhecimento e as práticas relacionadas ao uso e resistência a antibióticos. Os alunos do segundo ano do curso de odontologia foram treinados para aplicar o questionário e usar os materiais educacionais que elaboraram para aumentar a conscientização. Após a sessão educacional, os pacientes responderam a outro questionário semelhante para avaliar as mudanças em seus conhecimentos. Resultados: Aumentar a conscientização sobre a resistência aos antibióticos pode ser uma forma eficaz de lidar com a crise de resistência aos antibióticos. Mais da metade dos participantes (55,6%) não sabia se os antibióticos tratam doenças causadas por infecções bacterianas ou virais. A maioria dos participantes (85,5%) havia tomado antibiótico no último ano e (50,5%) deles havia tomado o mesmo antibiótico mais de uma vez. O maior nível de escolaridade dos participantes foi significativamente associado a um maior nível de conhecimento. Aumentos estatisticamente significativos nas porcentagens de respostas corretas para todas as questões foram observados após a sessão educacional. Conclusão: A sessão educacional individual é uma abordagem eficaz para lidar com a crise de resistência aos antibióticos. (AU)

ABSTRACT

Resumo Este artigo atualiza o texto anterior do autor principal publicado em 2000, revisitando as evidências científicas que reafirmam a contribuição da saúde para a qualidade de vida de indivíduos e populações. Mais do que o acesso a serviços de saúde de qualidade, é necessário enfrentar os determinantes da saúde em toda a sua amplitude, o que requer políticas públicas saudáveis, uma efetiva articulação intersetorial do poder público e a mobilização da população. Os autores revisitam a emergência e o desenvolvimento da promoção da saúde, centrando sua análise nas estratégias mais promissoras para o incremento da qualidade de vida propostas pelo setor saúde, sobretudo em formações sociais com alta desigualdade sociosanitária, como é o caso do Brasil, reforçada pela recente pandemia de COVID-19. É no movimento dos municípios saudáveis e em ações intersetoriais, na saúde em todas as políticas e no enfrentamentos dos determinantes sociais da saúde que tais estratégias se concretizam, através de seus próprios fundamentos e práticas, que estão estreitamente relacionados com as inovações na gestão pública para o desenvolvimento local integrado e sustentável, "vis a vis" a nova Agenda 2030 e seus Objetivos do Desenvolvimento Sustentável (ODS).


Abstract This article updates the previous text of the main author published in 2000, revisiting the scientific evidence that reaffirms the contribution of health to the quality of life of individuals and populations. More than the access to health services of any quality, it is necessary to face determinants of health in its entirety, which requires healthy public policies, an effective intersectoral articulation of public power and mobilization of the population. The authors revisit the emergence and development of health promotion, focusing on the analysis of the most promising health strategies for the increase in quality of life, especially in societies with high social and health inequalities, as in the case of Brazil, reinforced by the recent pandemic of COVID-19. Such strategies were concretized on healthy municipalities and intersectoral actions, in health and in all policies which confront social determinants, through their own foundations and practices that are closely related to innovations in public management for integrated and sustainable local development, in view of the 2030 Agenda and its Sustainable Development Objectives (SDG).

ABSTRACT

Resumen: Introducción: El tema se aborda desde un enfoque metodológico prospectivo sobre la problemática de los CECIs-MICTT albergados por el SINABI-MCJ cuyo objetivo es analizar una estrategia para promoverlos. Proposición: Se exponen las ideas a desarrollar sobre los ODS que ofrecen la oportunidad al sistema de bibliotecas públicas de articular sus servicios desde un reposicionamiento de sus funciones, así como a las necesidades nacionales para promover el desarrollo local con una visión global que refuerce el compromiso social de la profesión. Argumentos para la discusión: Se encontró que el trabajo realizado como cogestores es relevante según los criterios evaluativos de: a) eficacia en el cumplimento de las metas de los servicios, b) calidad basada en la satisfacción del cliente y, c) sostenibilidad como generación de recursos a través del tiempo para la continua prestación del servicio. Conclusiones: Se ofrece una infraestructura y una oportunidad para apoyar las metas país propuestas. La recolección de resultados es valorada como provechosa en el uso de los insumos, actividades desarrolladas, efectos visibles e impactos en donde se distingue que los principales son la interacción tecnológica para el uso de TICs y la interacción social para la conformación de comunidades de usuarios que permitan al SINABI-MCJ plantearse la meta prospectiva de articular con otros cogestores y apoyar a sus propios establecimientos para revertir la grave amenaza de un cambio de dos grados en la temperatura del planeta, que hace necesario actuar en la dirección correcta para la conservación y el desarrollo social con inclusión, equidad e igualdad de oportunidades para un país en donde la brechas sociales tienden a ser muy amplias.


Abstract: Introduction: The topic is approached from a prospective methodological approach to the problem of CECIs-MICTT hosted by SINABI-MCJ and the objective is to analyze a strategy to promote them. Proposal: The ideas that the thematic contents and actions that must be developed on the SDGs offer an opportunity to the public library system to articulate their services from a repositioning of their functions to the national needs to promote local development with a global vision are exposed that reinforces the social commitment of the profession. Arguments for the discussion: It was found that the work carried out as co-advisors is relevant and according to the evaluative criteria of: a) effectiveness as the fulfillment of the goals of the services, b) quality based on customer satisfaction and, c) sustainability as the generation of resources over time for the continuous provision of the service. Conclusions: It offers an infrastructure and an opportunity to support the proposed country goals. The harvest of results is valued as beneficial in the use of inputs, activities developed, visible effects and impacts where it is distinguished that the main ones are the technological interaction for the use of ICTs and social interaction for the formation of user communities that allow SINABI-MCJ to consider the prospective goal of articulating with other co-managers and supporting their own establishments to reverse the serious threat of a two-degree change in temperature of the planet that makes it necessary to act in the right direction for conservation and promote social development with inclusion, equity and equal opportunities for a country where social gaps tend to be very wide.

ABSTRACT

Abstract Background: Pelvic organ prolapse recurrence rate is an important issue which impacts the patient's quality of life and results in a new surgical procedure. We use a new technique of laparoscopic pelvic organ suspension (rectal suspension) for pelvic organ prolapse treatment in our center. We evaluated the results of this technique, three months after surgery and at the time of study reporting. Methods: All patients with pelvic organ prolapse for whom laparoscopic pelvic organ prolapse had been done were evaluated. Data were collected from the patient's charts and their short term follow up 3 months after the surgery and their last follow up visit. Demographic, history, physical examination, Wexner's fecal incontinence score and Altomare's Obstructed Defecation Syndrome score, post-operation complications and patient's satisfaction were analyzed, retrospectively. Results: All patients were female with a mean age of 57 ± 11.43 years (range 32-86 years). Mean BMI was 26.1 ± 3.73. Nine patients had rectal bleeding (31%), 18 had prolonged or difficult defecation (62%), 16 had rectal prolapse (55.2%), 11 had gas incontinence (37.9%), 9 had liquid stool incontinence (31%), 5 had stool incontinence (17.2%), 9 had vaginal prolapse (31%), 23 had constipation (79.3%), 9 complaint of pelvic pain (31%), 9 had urge or stress urinary incontinence (31%) and 13 had dyspareunia (44.8%). Conclusions: In conclusion, we believe this procedure has good results in short term follow up (3 months after surgery), but a high recurrence rate in the middle term follow up. Therefore, this procedure is no longer recommended.


Resumo Introdução: A taxa de recorrência do prolapso de órgãos pélvicos é uma questão importante que afeta a qualidade de vida do paciente, resultando em um novo procedimento cirúrgico. Os autores adotaram uma nova técnica de suspensão laparoscópica de órgãos pélvicos (suspensão retal) no tratamento de prolapso de órgãos pélvicos. Os resultados dessa técnica foram avaliados três meses após a cirurgia e no momento do relato do estudo. Métodos: Todos os pacientes com prolapso de órgão pélvico submetidos a suspensão laparoscópica foram avaliados. Os dados foram coletados do prontuário do paciente, na visita de acompanhamento três meses após a cirurgia e na última visita de acompanhamento. Os dados demográficos, histórico médico, avaliação física, escore de incontinência fecal de Wexner, escore da síndrome da defecação obstruída de Altomare, complicações pós-operatórias e satisfação do paciente foram analisados retrospectivamente. Resultados: Todos os pacientes eram do sexo feminino, com média de idade de 57 ± 11,43 anos (variação de 32 a 86 anos). O índice de massa corporal médio foi de 26,1 ± 3,73. Nove (31%) pacientes apresentaram sangramento retal; 18 (62%), defecação prolongada ou difícil; 16 (55,2%), prolapso retal; 11 (37,9%), incontinência gasosa; nove (31%), incontinência fecal líquida, cinco (17,2%), incontinência fecal; nove (31%), prolapso vaginal; 23 (79,3%), constipação; nove (31%), queixa de dor pélvica; nove (31%), incontinência urinária de urgência ou esforço e 13 (44,8%), dispareunia. Conclusões: Os autores acreditam que este procedimento apresenta bons resultados no seguimento de curto prazo (três meses após a cirurgia), mas uma alta taxa de recorrência no acompanhamento a médio prazo. Portanto, esse procedimento não é mais recomendado.

ABSTRACT

En su libro Kate Raworth invita al lector a reflexionar sobre la pertinencia del paradigma económico dominante en el contexto de un planeta que muestra señales de agotamiento ecológico y ambiental. No se trata de un simple debate teórico; los datos empíricos indican que el capitalismo actual no es sostenible. Por medio del uso de la metáfora de una Dónut, la economista propone un cambio de la meta de crecimiento económico perpetuo en el cual se fundamenta el futuro de las sociedades. Es importante reemplazar el lenguaje de 'lo bueno es ir hacia adelante o hacia arriba' por uno que privilegie la búsqueda del equilibrio entre las necesidades humanas y los límites planetarios la Tierra.


Kate Raworth's book invites the reader to reflect on the relevance of the dominant economic paradigm in the context of a planet that suffers from ecological and environmental exhaustion. The implications of that debate are not solely theoretical; empirical data shows that contemporary capitalism is not sustainable. By introducing the metaphor of the doughnut, the economist suggests a shift in the goal of perpetual economic growth on which the future of societies is based. It is important to replace the language from 'good is forward-and-up' to 'good is in-balance' between human needs and the earthly limits of the Earth.

ABSTRACT

Introducción: Analizar los resultados a corto y mediano plazo del tratamiento del rectocele anterior mediante la resección rectal transperineal con engrapadora lineal y refuerzo del tabique rectovaginal con malla. Prospectivo de casos consecutivos. Pacientes y método: Entre 01 de abril de 2008 y 31 de Marzo de 2010, 12 pacientes fueron tratados en nuestra institución por presentar diagnóstico de Rectocele Anterior. Los pacientes fueron evaluados por cirujanos entrenados; sometidos a manometría anorrectal y estudios imagenológicos dinámicos. Se realizó una técnica de Resección Rectal por vía perineal con engrapadora lineal y la aplicación de malla. Se aplicaron distintos scores para evaluar los resultados. Resultados: El 100% fueron sexo femenino, edad promedio 44,6 años. El tiempo promedio de cirugía fue 164 minutos (r: 135-180). No hubo complicaciones intraoperatorias. La estadía media hospitalaria fue 2,6 días. La morbilidad fue del 16,6% (2) y no hubo mortalidad relacionada al procedimiento. La evaluación basal del score ODS mostró un promedio de 19.16, mientras el promedio determinado al 7 y 21 día postoperatorio fue 0,5 y 0,16 respectivamente (P = 0,001). La evaluación del estreñimiento usando el score PAC-SYM mostró un resultado basal promedio de 17,08, mientras que al 7 y 21 día postoperatorio fue 3,25 y 1,32 respectivamente (P = 0,002). El cuestionario de Satisfacción a los 6 meses mostró mejoría significativa respecto al valor basal (p = 0,001). Conclusión: Esta nueva técnica permite restaurar el tabique rectovaginal resecando el defecto rectal. Los resultados funcionales obtenidos son favorables, con baja morbilidad y pocas complicaciones relacionadas al uso de mallas. (AU)


Objective: To analyze short and mid-term results of anterior rectocele treatment by trans perineal rectal resection with linear stapler and rectovaginal septum reinforcement with mesh. Patients and methods: Between 01April 2008 and 31 March 2010, 12 patients were treated at our institution with diagnosis of Anterior Rectocele. Patients were evaluated by trained surgeons, underwent anorectal manometry and dynamic images studies. We performed a novel technique called "Stapled Perineal Rectocele resection". Different scores were applied to evaluate the results. Results: 100% were female, average age 44.6 years. The mean surgical time was 164 minutes (r: 135-180). There were no intraoperative complications. The average hospital stay was 2.6 days. The morbidity was 16.6% (2) and there was no procedure-related mortality. Baseline of ODS showed an average score of 19.16, while the average determined at 7 and 21 days postoperatively was 0.5 and 0.16 respectively (P = 0.001). The assessment of constipation using the PAC-SYM score showed a mean baseline of 17.08 results, while at 7 and 21 days after surgery was 3.25 and 1.32 respectively (P = 0.002). The patient satisfaction score after six months showed significant improvement from baseline (p = 0.001). Conclusion: The novel technique restores rectovaginal septum and extirpates the rectal defect. The functional results are favorable, with low morbidity and few complications related to the use of mesh. (AU)

ABSTRACT

Resumo O objetivo deste artigo é analisar principais características da mortalidade por ATT no Brasil, 1996-2015, com foco na faixa de 10-29 anos. Estudo com 2 etapas articuladas: (i) revisão bibliográfica sobre o tema violência no trânsito no Brasil; (ii) estudo da mortalidade por ATT no SIM. A primeira situa o estado da arte da produção científica sobre o tema e produz o referencial teórico para a análise da segunda. No período, morreram por ATT cerca de 39.000 pessoas/ano, das quais cerca de 13.200 adolescentes e jovens. Para atingir o ODS 3.6, o país deve reduzir a mortalidade para algo em torno de 19.500/ano e, entre adolescentes e jovens, para 6.500/ano. Com a instituição do CTB houve queda na taxa de mortalidade por ATT entre 1997 e 2000. A taxa aumentou na década posterior. O foco nos adolescentes e jovens ajuda a compreender: no período pós CTB e Lei Seca, motociclistas do sexo masculino, pretos e pardos tornaram-se as principais vítimas. A literatura levantada propicia a análise dos dados e demonstra que a redução passa por uma discussão articulada que envolve políticas de saúde do trabalhador, gênero, emprego, mobilidade urbana e propaganda. Em termos de ODS isto significa que atingir o ODS 3.6 é um processo que envolve a interação com políticas que visem outros ODS.


Abstract This paper aims to analyze the main characteristics of Road Traffic Accidents (RTA) mortality in Brazil for the period 1996-2015, focusing on the 10-29 years' age group. This is a two-step study consisting of (i) a bibliographic review on the topic of traffic violence in Brazil, and (ii) a study on RTA mortality in the Mortality Information System (SIM). The former situates the state of the art of scientific production on the theme and produces the theoretical reference for the analysis of the latter. During the period, about 39,000 people died by RTA, of which about 13,200 adolescents and young people died. The country should curb mortality to somewhere around 19,500/year and, among adolescents and young people, to 6,500/year to achieve SDG 3.6. With the establishment of the Brazilian Traffic Code (CTB), RTA mortality rate fell between 1997 and 2000. The rate increased in the subsequent decade. The focus on adolescents and young people help us understand that, in the post-CTB and Prohibition, male black and brown motorcyclists became the main victims. The literature provides data analysis and shows that reduction is currently submitted to an articulated discussion that involves worker's health, gender, employment, urban mobility and advertising policies. Concerning SDG, this means that achieving SDG 3.6 is a process that involves interacting with policies targeting other SDGs.

ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT Study objective: The aim is to assess the presence and persistence of the agraphes at the level of staple line after transanal stapled surgery. Methods: From April to December 2016 one-hundred-thirteen patients with variable follow-up (6 months-10 years) were randomly selected among all the patients undergone transanal stapled surgery for haemorrhoidal disease or functional disorders such as obstructed defecation syndrome. Only 87 patients agreed to participate this study. All the patients underwent digital exploration, anoscopy and 360° tridimensional transanal ultrasound. Main results: Different types of stapled transanal surgical procedures were performed: 48 transanal rectal resection with high volume device, 24 stapled haemorrhoidopexy, 8 Double Stapled Haemorrhoidopexy, 7 Transtarr. In 41.4% the staple line was not identified with digital examination or anoscopy and 17.2% of patients have some staples partially expelled inside the lumen. 360° tridimensional transanal ultrasound showed a complete staple line at the ano-rectal junction which appears as an interrupted hyperechoic circular layer. Conclusion: The staples after stapled transanal surgery remain at the level of the staple line independently from the device used by the surgeon leading to the necessity of a shared and adequate language, in fact the shed staples need to be considered as expelled instead of retained.


RESUMO Objetivo do estudo: Avaliar a presença e persistência dos agrafes ao nível da linha de aplicação dos grampos, em seguida à cirurgia transanal com grampeador. Métodos: De abril até dezembro de 2016, 113 pacientes com seguimentos variáveis (6 meses-10 anos) foram aleatoriamente selecionados entre todos os pacientes tratados com cirurgia transanal com grampos para tratamento de hemorroidas ou de transtornos funcionais, por exemplo, síndrome de evacuação obstruída. Apenas 87 pacientes concordaram em participar do estudo. Todos os pacientes passaram por exploração digital, anoscopia e ultrassonografia transanal tridimensional de 360°. Resultados principais: Foram realizados diferentes tipos de procedimentos cirúrgicos transanais com grampeador: 48 ressecções retais transanais com uso de grampeador de grande volume, 24 hemorroidopexias com grampeador, 8 hemorroidopexias com grampos duplos e 7 procedimentos com grampeador Transtar. Em 41,4% dos tratamentos, não foi possível identificar a linha de grampeamento com exame digital ou com anoscopia, e em 17,2% dos pacientes alguns grampos foram expelidos para o lúmen. A ultrassonografia transanal tridimensional de 360° revelou uma linha de grampeamento completo na junção anorretal, assumindo o aspecto de uma camada circular hiperecoica interrompida. Conclusão: Em seguida à cirurgia transanal com grampeamento, os grampos permanecem ao nível da linha de grampeamento, independentemente do tipo de grampeador usado pelo cirurgião, o que torna necessária uma linguagem compartilhada e adequada; de fato, os grampos soltos devem ser considerados como expelidos, em lugar de retidos.

ABSTRACT

Objective: To establish a new procedure for isolating scutellarin from Erigeron multiradiatus. Methods: A proposed method was developed by combining macroporous resins with ODS column. Firstly, E. multiradiatus was extracted by ultrasound with 80% methanol. Preliminary separation was performed on macroporous resin column. The performance and adsorption characteristics of three macroporous resins, D140, D141, and D605, were compared and the enrichment procedure was optimized. Further purification was carried out by medium pressure liquid chromatography (MPLC) with ODS column. Results: It was demonstrated that D141 had better extractive effects on scutellarin. The MPLC conditions were optimized as follows: 15% ethanol aqueous as mobile phase with flow rate at 2.5 mL/min. The yield and purity of the isolated scutellarin were 1.20 mg/g and 96.5%, respectively. Conclusion: The overall procedure is efficient and low-cost, which is considered suitable for the separation and purification of scutellarin from E. multiradiatus. The results provide the scientific basis for developing and using scutellarin in clinic. © 2013 Tianjin Press of Chinese Herbal Medicines.

ABSTRACT

Objetivos: describir un reciente método para evaluar pacientes con síntomas de obstrucción del tracto de salida, y mostrar nuestra experiencia inicial y resultados obtenidos. Material y Métodos: se estudiaron, en el período comprendido entre mayo 2011 y mayo 2013, a pacientes con síntomas de dificultad evacuatoria utilizando la ecografía anorrectal dinámica según la técnica descripta. Los estudios fueron efectuados por 2 operadores entrenados en el método. Resultados: se realizaron 89 ecodefecografías en 88 pacientes, en un período de 24 meses. La ecodefecografía detectó rectocele en el 65% de los pacientes estudiados, seguido de intususcepción y anismo en el 54 y 45%, respectivamente. Conclusión: la ecodefecografía es un método útil para evaluar pacientes con síntomas de obstrucción del tracto de salida. Permite obtener los mismos resultados que la videodefecografía. Es un estudio mínimamente invasivo, evita la exposición a radiación y pone en evidencia todas las estructuras anatómicas involucradas en la evacuación.


Purpose: to describe a novel method to assess Obstructed Defecation Syndrome (ODS) and to show the results of our experience. Material and Methods: patients referred with symptoms of ODS between May 2011 and May 2013 were studied by anorrectal dynamic ultrasonography technique. We use the technique of echodefecography described by Murah-Regadas et al. The test was analyzed by two experienced investigators. Results: we performed 89 echodefecography in 88 patients in a period of 24 months. EDF revealed rectocele in 65%, intussusception in 54% and anismus in 45% of patients. Conclusion: echodefecography may be used to assess patients with obstructed defecation, as it is able to detect the same anorrectal dysfunctions found by defecography. It is a minimally invasive, well tolerated method, that avoids exposure to radiation and clearly shows all the anatomical structures involved in defecation.

ABSTRACT

Os autores examinam o documento resultante da Conferência das Nações Unidas sobre Desenvolvimento Sustentável (CNUDS), conhecida como Rio+20, realizada em junho de 2012 analisando o papel da economia verde no processo de desenvolvimento e na erradicação da pobreza, bem como os requisitos para uma governança equilibrada das dimensões ambiental, econômica e social. O documento final da CNUDS, intitulado 'O Futuro que Queremos', defende um sistema multilateral inclusivo e propõe o estabelecimento de um fórum politico intergovernamental de alto nível, a partir da Comissão sobre Desenvolvimento Sustentável (CDS), assim como o fortalecimento do Programa das Nações Unidas para o Meio Ambiente (PNUMA), realçando a necessidade de ampla participação dos programas, fundos e agências das Nações Unidas, incluindo as instituições financeiras internacionais. Reconhece a saúde como pré-condição e resultado para as três dimensões do desenvolvimento sustentável e destaca a importância de estabelecer objetivos coerentes e integrados à Agenda de Desenvolvimento das Nações Unidas pós-2015, além dos três ODM diretamente relacionadas à saúde. Os Estados Membros insistiram no cumprimento dos compromissos relacionados à Ajuda Oficial ao Desenvolvimento (AOD), incluindo a dedicação de 0,7% do PIB de países desenvolvidos para apoiar os países em desenvolvimento e enfatizaram a possibilidade de obtenção de recursos adicionais através da cooperação sul-sul e da cooperação triangular, como expressão de solidariedade entre os países e, destacaram a importância das flexibilidades do Acordo TRIPS para um melhor aproveitamento das tecnologias necessárias ao desenvolvimento. Finalmente, aprovaram o estabelecimento de um Grupo de Trabalho (GT) para elaborar proposta para os Objetivos de Desenvolvimento Sustentável (ODS) a serem incorporados à agenda de desenvolvimento pós-2015, o que deverá contar com o apoio técnico de todas as Agências das Nações Unidas (BM, FMI, OMC, incluindo agências sociais como OMS, entre outras). O resultado desse esforço será apresentado à Assembleia Geral das Nações Unidas (AGNU) em 2013, a tempo de poder influenciar a formulação dos ODM pós-2015, especialmente para melhorar a saúde humana.


The authors examined the document resulting from the United Nations Conference on Sustainable Development (UNCSD), known as Rio+20, that was held in June 2012. They analyzed the role of green economy in the process of development and poverty eradication and the requirements for balanced governance of the environmental, economic, and social dimensions. The final document from the UNCSD, which is titled "The Future We Want", advocates an inclusive multilateral system. It also proposes establishing a high-level intergovernmental political forum from the Commission on Sustainable Development and strengthening the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP), highlighting the need for a broad participation of the programs, funds, and agencies from the United Nations, including financial institutions. The document recognizes health as a precondition and the result of the three dimensions of sustainable development, and it highlights the importance of setting coherent goals that are integrated with the post-2015 UN Development Agenda and the three health-related Millennium Development Goals (MDGs). The member states insisted on fulfilling the commitments related to the Official Development Assistance (ODA), including dedicating 0.7% of the gross domestic product (GDP) from developed countries to support developing countries. These member states emphasize the possibility of obtaining additional resources through the South-South cooperation and triangular cooperation as an expression of solidarity between countries. They also highlight the importance of flexibility in the TRIPS (Trade-Related Aspects of Intellectual Property Rights) Agreement to better use the technology needed for development. Finally, the member states approved the establishment of a working group (WG) to develop a proposal for the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), which will be incorporated into the post-2015 development agenda and should have technical support from all UN agencies (World Bank [WB], the International Monetary Fund [IMF], and the World Trade Organization [WTO], including social agencies such as the World Health Organization [WHO], among others). The result of this effort will be presented to the UN General Assembly (UNGA) in 2013, which allows time to influence the formulation of the post-2015 MDGs and to improve human health conditions, in particular.

ABSTRACT

PURPOSE: This study was designed to assess the early outcome of a stapled transanal rectal resection (STARR) in obstructed defecation syndrome (ODS) patients with rectocele and rectal intussusception. METHODS: From January to December in 2005, 41 patients with the symptoms of obstructed defecation and the findings of rectocele and rectal intussusception in defecography, who failed in conservative management, were enrolled in this study. All patients underwent the STARR procedure. Preoperatively all patients received colonoscopy, a colon transit time test, cinedefecography, etc. The constipation score was evaluated by using the Cleveland Clinic Florida (CCF) constipation score preoperatively and at 1 month and 3 months after operation. RESULTS: The mean age of the patients was 55.3 (19~76) years. There were three males and thirty-eight females. The mean operation time was 39.3 (25~80) minutes, and the mean hospital stay was 4.2 (4~6) days. Complications were fecal urgency in 9 cases (21.9%), which improved after 3 months, bleeding in 5 cases (12.2%), and anastomotic stenosis in 1 case (2.4%). At postoperative defecography, both intussusception and rectocele had disappeared in most patients. All constipation symptoms were significantly improved (P < 0.01). The mean CCF constipation score was 17.6 (11~24) preoperatively, and improved to 9.1 after 1 month and 8.2 after 3 months (P < 0.01). The overall patient satisfaction was graded as excellent, good, fairly good and poor in 19 cases (46.3%), 13 cases (31.7%), 4 cases (9.7%), and 5 cases (12.2%), respectively. CONCLUSION: The STARR procedure seems to be a safe and effective procedure in ODS patients with rectocele and rectal intussusception. However, further study of the long-term results is required.
