ABSTRACT

Neste artigo, iremos apresentar como ocorreu a edição virtual da Maratona do Rio de Janeiro em 2020, ainda sem autorizações sanitárias para a realização de grandes eventos. Para isso, analisaremos o Guia do corredor, apresentado aos corredores na época. A competição é realizada por meio de uso de aplicativos, mas o atleta é estimulado a correr com o slogan "Não correr nunca foi uma opção". Abordamos os conceitos de necrodemografia e necropolítica. Entende-se que a Maratona do Rio pratica uma espécie de necropolíti-ca ao organizar a competição em pleno período pandêmico do Brasil, apesar de valorizar a paisagem da rua em suas plataformas comunicacionais.


In this article, we will present how the virtual edition of the Rio de Janeiro Marathon took place in 2020 in the middle of the pandemic, still without health permits to hold major events. For this, we will analyze the Runner's Guide presented to the runners at the time. The competition is carried out using applications, but the athlete is encouraged to run with the slogan "Not running was never an option". We approach the concepts of necrodemography and necropolitics. It is understood that the Rio Marathon practices a kind of necropolitics when organizing the competition in the middle of the pandemic period in Brazil, despite valuing the street landscape in its communication platforms.

ABSTRACT

O vírus da Covid-19 afetou de diversas formas a população mundial e, com isso, surgiu a necessidade da implementação de medidas sanitárias para evitar sua propagação. Em Belo Horizonte, essas medidas vieram por meio de decretos municipais, que proibiram o funcionamento de serviços considerados não essenciais. A partir desse momento, os jovens acostumados a frequentar bares, festas, shoppings ­ lugares que geram intensa aglomeração ­ se depararam com uma situação inusitada, sendo obrigados a adaptarem suas práticas à rotina do lar. Com o intuito de compreender melhor essas mudanças, realizamos um estudo que analisa os impactos da pandemia nas práticas de lazer desses jovens. Por meio de um questionário aplicado em diversos pontos de lazer da cidade, conseguimos observar como as práticas de lazer dos jovens foram afetadas pela pandemia. Esses resultados enfatizam a importância da adaptabilidade e resiliência dos jovens diante novos desafios.


The Covid-19 virus has affected the global population in various ways, leading to the need for the implementation of sanitary measures to prevent its spread. In Belo Horizonte, these measures came through municipal decrees, which banned the operation of non-essential services. From that moment on, young people accustomed to frequenting bars, parties, and malls ­ places that generate intense crowding ­ found themselves in an unusual situation, being forced to adapt their practices to home life. In order to better understand these changes, we conducted a study analyzing the impacts of the pandemic on the leisure practices of these young people. Through a questionnaire applied at various leisure points in the city, we were able to observe how the leisure practices of young people were affected by the pandemic. These results emphasize the importance of adaptability and resilience of young people in face of new challenges.

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the prevalence of Anisakis infections in coastal marine fishes and awareness of anisakiasis control knowledge among local residents in Yantai City, Shandong Province in 2021, so as to provide insights into formulation of anisakiasis control interventions. Methods Marine fishes were purchased from Shunxin Port, Yantai City, Shandong Province in November 2021, and the presence of Anisakis was detected in different species of fishes and different fish sites. The correlations between body length and weight of marine fish and intensity of Anisakis infections were examined using Spearman’s rank correlation analysis, and the dietary habits and anisakiasis control knowledge were investigated using questionnaire surveys among local residents. Results A total of 201 marine fishes belonging to 20 species were dissected, and Anisakis was detected in 77 marine fishes (38.31%) belonging to 11 species (55.00%), with a mean infection intensity of 45.04 parasites per fish (3 468/77). Spearman’s rank correlation analysis revealed that the body length (rs = 0.74, P < 0.05) and weight (rs = 0.79, P < 0.01) of the monkfish correlated positively with the intensity of Anisakis infections, and the body length (rs = 0.68, P < 0.05) of the flatfish correlated positively with the intensity of Anisakis infections, while no correlations were examined between the body length or weight of other marine fishes and the intensity of Anisakis infections. Of all respondents, 53.38% men and 56.67% women did not know anisakiasis control knowledge at all, and there was a significant difference in the proportion of respondents using separate chopping boards for raw and cooked food from different villages (χ2 = 17.89, P < 0.01), while there was an age-specific proportion of respondents with habitats of eating raw or semi-raw seafood (χ2 = 28.27, P < 0.01). Conclusions The prevalence and intensity of Anisakis infections were high in coastal marine fishes in Yantai City in 2021, and the awareness of anisakiasis control knowledge was low among local residents. Intensified health education pertaining to anisakiasis control knowledge is recommended to reduce the risk of Anisakis infections.

ABSTRACT

Se sistematizan algunas iniciativas y experiencias de organización comunitaria, en proceso de construcción de territorialidad como lo son las de los participantes de la "población moradora", inmersa en los escenarios del despojo, provocado por las alianzas público-privadas del urbanismo neoliberal en el Valle de Aburrá, que al lograr convertirse en sujetos organizativos consolidan apuestas por el trabajo colectivo de transformación social. La reflexión en modo IAP da cuenta de la forma como en medio de las adversas problemáticas de su mundo de la vida, por medio del trabajo con herramientas formativas, la "población moradora" se constituye como subjetividad erguida y de resistencia, en permanente construcción de un proyecto de incidencia política.


In the midst of the advance of the urban intervention of the alliances between the officialdom and the financial guilds for the benefit of the private sector, which took place in the first two decades of the 21st century in the city of Medellín, some considerations are made on the contextual conditions in which the phenomenon of resistance of the population named dweller in the city of Medellín and the metropolitan area emerges. Thus, some initiatives and experiences of community organization are systematized, whose social subjects overcome the bets of collective work, in the midst of the adversities of the problems of their world of life of the subjectivity that lives from the dispossession by urbanism.

ABSTRACT

Introducción. El estado epiléptico constituye la emergencia neurológica más frecuente. Si bien la mortalidad en niños es baja, su morbilidad puede superar el 20 %. Objetivo. Conocer las pautas de manejo del estado epiléptico referidas por médicos pediatras que atienden esta patología en forma habitual. Población y métodos. Estudio descriptivo, transversal, basado en una encuesta a médicos de tres hospitales pediátricos monovalentes de gestión pública de la Ciudad Autónoma de Buenos Aires. Resultados. Se administraron 292 encuestas (la tasa de respuesta completa alcanzó el 86 %); el 77 % se administró a pediatras y el 16 %, a especialistas en cuidados intensivos. Un 47 % de los participantes refiere indicar la primera benzodiacepina en el tiempo correcto; el 56 % utilizar diazepam intrarrectal en ausencia de un acceso intravenoso; el 95 % elige lorazepam como benzodiacepina inicial en caso de contar con acceso intravenoso; el 58 % refiere iniciar la etapa de fármacos de segunda línea en tiempo adecuado; el 84 % opta por fenitoína como fármaco inicial de segunda línea, un 33 % no cronometra el tiempo durante el tratamiento. La adherencia global a las recomendaciones internacionales fue del 17 %. Conclusiones. Nuestro estudio advierte una baja adherencia referida de los pediatras a las guías internacionales, en particular en las decisiones tiempo-dependientes. También se observó mayor heterogeneidad en las conductas terapéuticas a medida que se avanza en el algoritmo de tratamiento.


Introduction. Status epilepticus is the most common neurological emergency. Although mortality in children is low, morbidity may exceed 20%. Objective. To evaluate the management of status epilepticus by pediatricians who usually treat this condition. Population and methods. Descriptive, cross-sectional study based on a survey administered to physicians from 3 pediatric hospitals in the City of Buenos Aires. Results. A total of 292 surveys were administered (complete response rate as high as 86%); 77% were administered to pediatricians and 16% to intensive care specialists. Forty-seven percent of the participants reported that they administer the first dose of a benzodiazepine within the correct timeframe; 56% use intrarectal diazepam when intravenous access is not available; 95% choose lorazepam as the initial benzodiazepine if an intravenous access is available; 58% initiate the administration of a second-line drug within the correct timeframe; 84% administer phenytoin as the first-choice, second-line drug; and 33% do not measure treatment time. Overall adherence to international recommendations was 17%. Conclusions. Our study highlights poor adherence of pediatricians to international guidelines, particularly in time-dependent decisions. Greater heterogeneity was observed in treatment approaches as the treatment algorithm progressed.

ABSTRACT

Despite Brazil's important advances in regulatory aspects related to city planning, the disorder-ly growth of Brazilian cities makes it difficult to implement changes that would result in greater opportunities for the active commuting of the population. This essay was designed to reflect on opportunities for improvement in the urban environment to promote physical activity in the context of commuting in Brazil. From this perspective, the study identified policies that promote orderly growth and support active commuting in cities. It also suggested the use of indicators to evaluate and monitor development, with a particular emphasis on active commuting. Furthermore, it is essential to adapt and improve the urban planning process to meet the needs of Brazilian municipalities and foster closer collaboration with civil society. Thus, it will be possible to verify the changes in the urban environment and their impact on the active commuting, promoting the development of healthy and sustainable cities


Apesar do Brasil apresentar importante avanço em aspectos regulatórios relacionados ao planejamento das cidades, o crescimento desordenado das cidades brasileiras dificulta a realização de mudanças que reflitam em maiores oportunidades no deslocamento ativo da população. Este ensaio foi elaborado com objetivo de refletir sobre as oportunidades para melhorias no ambiente urbano para a promoção da atividade física no contexto do deslocamento no Brasil. Nessa perspectiva, o estudo identificou políticas que permitem o crescimento ordenado e favoreça o deslocamento ativo nas cidades, além de sugerir o uso de indicadores para avaliação e monitoramento do desenvolvimento, com especial foco no deslocamento ativo. Ademais, é imprescindível que o processo de planejamento urbano seja adaptado e aprimorado considerando as necessidades dos municípios brasileiros e com aproximação da sociedade civil. Assim, será possível verificar as modificações no ambiente urbano e seu impacto no deslocamento ativo da população, estimulando a criação de cidades saudáveis e sustentáveis

ABSTRACT

O envelhecimento populacional e a urbanização são dois fenômenos mundiais em crescimento e representam uma das transformações sociais mais significativas do século XXI. Esse cenário exige mudanças que envolvem a de modo particular. Objetivou-se analisar as representações sociais de idosos sobre a mobilidade urbana em Chapecó (SC), na perspectiva do direito à cidade. Trata-se de uma pesquisa qualitativa, em que foram realizados levantamento documental e entrevista semiestruturada. Participaram do estudo onze idosos integrantes do Projeto SUPERidade da Secretaria de Assistência Social de Chapecó. Para a análise das informações utilizou-se a técnica de análise temática de conteúdo, delimitando-se à categoria "Medo e Insegurança na relação com as barreiras". Os sentimentos de medo e insegurança constituem as representações sociais dos idosos sobre a mobilidade urbana quando estes se deparam com barreiras, como o tempo curto no semáforo, o degrau alto do transporte público coletivo e o desrespeito por parte dos condutores de veículos, cuja interação entre elas e as limitações funcionais oriundas do envelhecimento gera tais sentimentos. Tendo em vista que o envelhecimento é um processo progressivo, irreversível e previsível no curso de vida, é o espaço urbano que pode ser redimensionado e, assim, contribuir para a inclusão de idosos com diferentes graus de capacidade funcional no cotidiano da cidade. Eliminar as barreiras significa compensar as limitações funcionais e promover um espaço urbano mais justo, democrático e saudável.(AU)


Population aging and urbanization are two growing global phenomena and represent one of the most significant social transformations of the 21st century. This scenario requires changes that involve urban mobility, which is experienced by the elderly in a particular way. The objective was to analyze the social representations of the elderly about urban mobility in Chapecó-SC from the perspective of the right to the city. This is qualitative research, in which a documentary survey and semi-structured interview were carried out. Participated in the study, eleven elderly members of SUPERidade Project of the Secretaria de Assistência Social de Chapecó. For the analysis of information, the thematic content analysis technique was used, delimiting the category "Fear and Insecurity concerning barriers". Feelings of fear and insecurity constitute the social representations of the elderly about urban mobility, when they face barriers such as short time at traffic lights, the high step of public transportation, and disrespect on the part of vehicle drivers, whose interaction between barriers and functional limitations resulting from aging generate such feelings. Considering that aging is a progressive, irreversible, and predictable process in life, the urban space should be adapted to contribute to the inclusion of older adults with different degrees of functional capacity in the city's daily life. Eliminating the barriers means compensating for the functional limitations and promoting a fairer, more democratic, and healthier urban space.(AU)

ABSTRACT

Considerando como tema central a saúde do trabalhador, o objetivo do presente estudo foi analisar a realidade das negociações coletivas do trabalho em alto-mar, avaliando como hipótese a fragilidade no controle do poder público sobre o processo produtivo como limite da efetividade de uma realidade em prol da saúde e segurança dos trabalhadores e trabalhadoras desse setor. Para isso, foram pontuados os seguintes objetivos específicos: a) apresentar distintas concepções e valorações do trabalho humano através das perspectivas sanitarista, ocupacional e previdenciária; b) apontar como a saúde do trabalhador offshore se organiza e vem sendo estruturada; c) elencar quais são os principais atores, práticas, possibilidades e obstáculos na consolidação do controle público na garantia de direitos do trabalhador offshore; d) pautar limites e possibilidades contidos nas negociações (acordos e convenções) no âmbito de acidentes e adoecimentos decorrentes da relação laboral da categoria; e e) analisar aspectos do acidente ocorrido no dia 11 de fevereiro de 2015 na unidade estacionária de produção, armazenamento e transferência de óleo e exportação de gás da empresa BW Offshore denominada Cidade de São Mateus (FPSO CDSM), que na ocasião era afretada pela Petrobras. Assim sendo, o leitor poderá observar detalhes a respeito do mercado de petróleo e gás, tais como sua importância no contexto econômico nacional, a inserção massiva da terceirização nas relações de trabalho e prestação de serviços dessa cadeia produtiva, além das representações sindicais desse universo laborativo em específico. Será possível, ainda, compreender as diferentes concepções de saúde do trabalhador, que revelam as abordagens e os interesses diversos no campo teórico-prático quando o assunto é a saúde e a segurança no ambiente laborativo, além de se familiarizar com aspectos garantidores ou vulnerabilizantes de direitos frente às negociações coletivas entre os representantes sindicais dos trabalhadores offshore da empresa BW Offshore. Por fim, será possível observar uma análise e tentativa de compreensão mais ampla do acidente supracitado, sob a ótica do déficit de controle público sobre os processos produtivos empresariais e, por consequência, da manutenção da inobservância do Estado em mediar essas relações. (AU)


Considering workers' health as a central theme, the objective of this study was to analyze the reality of collective negotiations on the high seas work, considering as a hypothesis the fragility in the control of the public power over the productive process as a limit of the effectiveness of a reality in favor of the health and safety of workers in this sector. For this, the following specific objectives were scored: a) To present different conceptions and valuations of human work through the sanitarian, occupational and social security perspectives; b) To point out how the health of the offshore worker is organized and has been structured; c) List the main actors, practices, possibilities and obstacles in consolidating public control in guaranteeing the rights of offshore workers; d) To guide limits and possibilities contained in the negotiations (agreements and conventions) in the context of accidents and illnesses resulting from the employment relationship of the category; e) Analyzing aspects of the accident that occurred on February 11, 2015, at the stationary production, storage, and oil and gas export unit of the company BW Offshore, known as Cidade de São Mateus (FPSO CDSM), which was chartered by Petrobras. Thus, the reader will be able to observe details about the oil and gas market, such as its importance in the national economic context, the massive insertion of outsourcing in labor relations and provision of services to this production chain, in addition to the union representations of this specific labor universe. It will be possible to understand the different conceptions of workers' health, which reveal the diverse interests and approaches in the theoretical and practical field regarding health and safety in the workplace. Additionally, the reader will be able to become acquainted with aspects that guarantee or undermine rights vulnerable during collective negotiations between the union representatives of offshore workers at BW Offshore. It will be also possible to observe an analysis and attempt at a broader understanding of the aforementioned accident, understood from the perspective of the deficit of public control over the business production processes, and consequently the maintenance of the State's non-observance in mediating these relations.

ABSTRACT

Resumo O artigo propõe uma leitura crítica do contexto histórico urbanístico e social das comunidades de Manguinhos considerando a fundamentação teórico-metodológica do campo da saúde urbana, apoiada no paradigma da determinação social da saúde e do direito à cidade. O recorte de análise para a identificação dos processos críticos de determinação social da saúde considerou a relevância da superação das necessidades habitacionais como condição indispensável para o direito à cidade e à saúde. A constatação da permanência dos processos mencionados, mesmo após os vultosos investimentos em urbanização realizados em Manguinhos, aponta para a necessidade de revisão das políticas públicas relacionadas e a inserção efetiva e emancipatória da população nessas políticas.


Abstract This article proposes a critical reading of the urbanistic and social historical context of the communities of Manguinhos, considering the field of urban health as a theoretical and methodological foundation based on the paradigm of the social commitment to health and the right to the city. Our demarcation of this analysis to identify the critical processes in the social commitment to health considered the relevance of overcoming housing needs as an indispensable condition for the right to the city and to health. The fact that these processes persist, even after the vast investments made in Manguinhos, indicates the need to review related public policies and their effective implementation to improve conditions for this population.

ABSTRACT

Resumo Objetivo Identificar os conceitos e perspectivas teóricas que fundamentam os estudos sobre Cidade Amiga da Pessoa Idosa. Métodos Revisão de escopo utilizando seis bancos de dados para identificar estudos publicados em revistas indexadas entre 2007 e 2021 usando as palavras-chave 'age-friendly' OR 'age friendly' OR 'cidade amiga'. Resultados Foram encontrados 2.975 estudos que após aplicação de critérios de exclusão resultaram em 227. Observou-se ampla variação no conceito do termo, porém muitos autores o fizeram replicando a OMS, sendo que em 59,5% dos estudos não houve menção de nenhuma perspectiva teórica. A teoria ecológica foi o referencial mais frequente (26%), sendo o termo usado como um equivalente a envelhecimento ativo. Autores de quatro países respondem pela maioria dos artigos (61%). Conclusão É necessário articular o conceito de Cidade Amiga da Pessoa Idosa com uma abordagem teórica e cultural para compreender mais profundamente as perspectivas do urbano e do social sob a lógica do envelhecimento populacional principalmente para a América Latina. A análise teórica nestes estudos e na gerontologia favorecerão discussões mais críticas sobre o envelhecimento, o idadismo e a crescente desigualdade social em curso.


Resumen Objetivo Identificar los conceptos y perspectivas teóricas que fundamentan los estudios sobre Cuidades Amigables con las Personas Mayores. Métodos Revisión de alcance utilizando seis bancos de datos para identificar estudios publicados en revistas indexadas entre 2007 y 2021, con las palabras clave 'age-friendly' OR 'age friendly' OR 'ciudad amigable'. Resultados Se encontraron 2975 estudios que, luego de aplicar los criterios de exclusión, quedaron 227. Se observó una amplia variación del concepto del término, aunque muchos autores replicaron a la OMS. En el 59,5 % de los estudios no se mencionó ninguna perspectiva teórica. La teoría ecológica fue la referencia más frecuente (26 %), y el término se usó como un equivalente al envejecimiento activo. La mayoría de los artículos (61 %) son de autores de cuatro países. Conclusión Es necesario unir el concepto de Cuidades Amigables con las Personas Mayores con un enfoque teórico y cultural para comprender más profundamente las perspectivas de lo urbano y lo social de acuerdo con la lógica del envejecimiento poblacional, principalmente en América Latina. El análisis teórico en estos estudios y en la gerontología permitirán discusiones más críticas sobre el envejecimiento, el edadismo y la creciente desigualdad social en curso.


Abstract Objective To identify the concepts and theoretical perspectives that underlie studies on age-friendly city. Methods This is a scoping review using six databases to identify studies published in indexed journals between 2007 and 2021 using the keywords 'age-friendly' OR 'age friendly' OR 'cidade amiga'. Results A total of 2,975 studies were found, which, after applying the exclusion criteria, resulted in 227. There was wide variation in the concept of the term, but many authors did so by replicating the WHO, and in 59.5% of studies there was no mention of any theoretical perspective. The ecological theory was the most frequent reference (26%), the term being used as an equivalent to active aging. Authors from four countries account for most articles (61%). Conclusion It is necessary to articulate the concept of age-friendly city with a theoretical and cultural approach to understand more deeply the urban and social perspectives under the logic of population aging, mainly for Latin America. Theoretical analysis in these studies and in gerontology will favor more critical discussions about aging, ageism and the growing social inequality in progress.

ABSTRACT

Resumo Compreender as relações entre mobilidade urbana e o processo saúde-doença requer perceber que a mobilidade urbana está diretamente relacionada ao tipo de cidade e sociedade onde ela ocorre. Assim, as diferentes condições de mobilidade nas cidades, um fenômeno subjacente à qualidade física e social do espaço urbano, pode implicar em iniquidades em saúde, em especial em países do capitalismo periférico. No Brasil, o modelo de mobilidade associado à precariedade da infraestrutura para pedestres e ciclistas, às longas distâncias a serem percorrida, ao tempo de viagem e à insuficiência e falta de qualidade dos sistemas coletivos de transporte, potencializa os efeitos deletérios sobre a saúde humana. Isso nos permite inferir sobre a mobilidade urbana como uma determinação social da saúde. Este ensaio busca lançar reflexões acerca da mobilidade urbana para além de um utilitarismo positivista a partir de um devir de justiça social alicerçado pela Promoção da Saúde e tendo como estratégia principal o fortalecimento das intersetorialidades.


Abstract Understanding the relationships between urban mobility and the health-disease process requires realizing that urban mobility is directly related to the type of city and society where it occurs. Thus, the different mobility conditions in cities, a phenomenon underlying the physical and social quality of urban space, may imply health inequities, especially in peripheral capitalist countries. In Brazil, the mobility model associated with precarious infrastructure for pedestrians and cyclists, long distances to be travelled, travel times, and the insufficiency and low quality of collective transport systems potentiates the deleterious effects on human health. This leads us to infer on urban mobility as a social determinant of health. This essay seeks to launch reflections on urban mobility beyond a positivist utilitarianism from a development of social justice based on Health Promotion and having as main strategy the strengthening of intersectorialities.

ABSTRACT

Resumo Em 2019, Fortaleza, capital do Ceará, recebeu a chancela da Organização das Nações Unidas para a Educação, a Ciência e a Cultura (UNESCO) de cidade criativa do design. Com isso, a prefeitura vem atuando na organização de um distrito criativo entre os espaços de dois bairros contíguos. Nas margens urbanas que circundam esses espaços está situada a comunidade Poço da Draga, que vem organizando um conjunto de ações em prol da economia criativa. Este estudo propõe uma discussão sobre a economia criativa como prática, lançando luzes sobre perspectivas críticas alternativas de análise de políticas públicas relacionadas à organização de distritos criativos em cidades do Sul global. Para isso, considerou-se o conceito de "prática do espaço" como retórica ambulante, um modo de ser e fazer de quem habita a cidade. O objetivo é discutir como a economia criativa pode atuar como prática de espaço. A metodologia de natureza qualitativa envolveu levantamentos bibliográficos e documentais, complementados por entrevistas e procedimentos de observação nos espaços sob estudo. A análise se baseou no exame temático das práticas de espaço identificadas à luz do objetivo da pesquisa. Os principais resultados evidenciam um conjunto de práticas de espaço, emancipatórias e de resistência perpassadas pela criatividade, colocadas em ato pelos habitantes da comunidade do Poço da Draga. Sugere-se que as políticas públicas para as cidades criativas do Sul global considerem os "fazeres" potenciais de seus habitantes, visando à organização das práticas de espaços urbanos marginalizados.


Resumen En 2019, la ciudad de Fortaleza, capital del estado de Ceará, recibió el sello de la Organización de las Naciones Unidas para la Educación, la Ciencia y la Cultura (UNESCO) como ciudad creativa del diseño. Con eso, la municipalidad de Fortaleza viene trabajando para organizar un distrito creativo en los espacios colindantes de dos barrios. En los márgenes urbanos que rodean estos espacios se ubica la comunidad de Poço da Draga que viene organizando un conjunto de acciones a favor de la economía creativa. Este estudio propone una discusión sobre la economía creativa como práctica, arrojando luz sobre perspectivas críticas alternativas para el análisis de políticas públicas relacionadas con la organización de distritos creativos en las ciudades del sur global. Se consideró el concepto de "práctica de espacio" como retórica ambulante, una forma de ser y hacer de quien vive en la ciudad. El objetivo fue discutir cómo la economía creativa puede actuar como una práctica de espacio. La metodología cualitativa y exploratoria implicó levantamientos bibliográficos y documentales, complementados con entrevistas y procedimientos de observación en los espacios en estudio. El análisis se basó en el examen temático de las prácticas de espacio identificadas a la luz del objetivo de la investigación. Los principales resultados mostraron un conjunto de prácticas de espacio, emancipadoras y de resistencia permeadas por la creatividad, puestas en acción por los habitantes de la comunidad de Poço da Draga. Se sugiere que las políticas públicas para las ciudades creativas del sur global consideren los "haceres" potenciales de sus habitantes, con el objetivo de organizar prácticas en espacios urbanos marginados.


Abstract In 2019, the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) recognized the capital of the Brazilian state of Ceará, Fortaleza, as a creative city of design. Since then, Fortaleza has been working to organize a Creative District between the spaces of two contiguous neighborhoods. On the urban margins surrounding these spaces is located the Poço da Draga community, which has been organizing a set of actions in favor of the creative economy. This study proposes a discussion about the creative economy as a practice, shedding light on alternative critical perspectives for analyzing public policies related to the organization of creative districts in cities of the global south. The concept of "practice of space" was considered as walking rhetoric, a way of being and doing for those living in the city. The objective was to discuss how the creative economy can act as a practice of space. The qualitative and exploratory methodology involved bibliographical and documentary surveys, complemented by interviews and observation procedures in the spaces under study. The analysis was based on the thematic examination of the identified practices of space, considering the research objective. The main results showed a set of practices of space, emancipatory and resistance permeated by creativity, put into action by the inhabitants of Poço da Draga. It is suggested that public policies for creative cities in the global south consider the potential "doings" of their inhabitants, aiming at organizing practices in marginalized urban spaces.

ABSTRACT

ObjectiveTo analyze the causes of death and years of life lost among patients with severe mental disorders in Jining city, in order to provide references for improving the management level of the patients. MethodsA total of 3 638 patients with severe mental disorders who were recorded in the National Information System for Severe Mental Disorders in Jining and died between January 1, 2014 and December 31, 2020 were included in the study. The general information and the status of mortality were extracted via checking management files. Thereafter, the causes of death of patients with different characteristics were discussed, and the years of life lost due to severe mental disorders was analyzed through calculating potential years of life lost (PYLL), average years of life lost (AYLL) and potential years of life lost rate (PYLLR). ResultsThe majority of patients who died from severe mental disorders were those with schizophrenia, accounting for 77.68% (2 826/3 638). The most common cause of death among patients with severe mental disorders was physical illness with 1 869 cases (51.37%). Among the selected subjects, patients with mental retardation and comorbid mental disorders had the youngest age of disease onset [(22.49±20.14) years], the youngest age at death [(51.72±18.32) years] and the longest duration of disease [(29.26±19.35) years]. The PYLL, AYLL and PYLLR of patients with severe mental disorders in Jining were 68 941.06 person-years, 18.95 years and 382.36‰, respectively. The mental retardation and comorbid mental disorders had the highest AYLL at 27.21 years, and epilepsy-induced mental disorder had the highest PYLLR at 892.73‰. ConclusionComorbid physical illness is the main causes of death in patients with severe mental disorders in Jining city, and epilepsy-induced mental disorder have occupied the first place in terms of the years of life lost.

ABSTRACT

Objective: To explore the current situation of work stress among nursing staff in Tianjin City and analyze its influencing factors. Methods: From August to October 2020, 26002 nursing staff from tertiary hospitals, secondary public hospitals, secondary private hospitals, primary hospitals, and other medical institutions in Tianjin City were selected as objects, and their general situation and working stress situation were surveyed by the general information questionnaire and the Nurse's Work Stressor Scale. Single factor analysis and multiple linear regression analysis were used to explore the influencing factors of work stress among nursing staff. Results: The average age of 26002 nursing staff was (33.86±8.28) years old, and the average working years were (11.84±9.12) years. There were 24874 women (95.66%) and 1128 men (4.34%). The total score of work stress was (79.82±21.69), and the average score of workload and time allocation dimension was the highest (2.55±0.79). The results of multiple linear regression analysis showed that marital status (β=-0.015, P=0.014), employment form as contract system (β=0.022, P=0.001), post as clinical nursing (β=0.048, P<0.001), education level (β=0.024, P<0.001), age (β=0.050, P<0.001), working years (β=0.075, P<0.001), and professional title (β=0.036, P<0.001) were the influencing factors of work stress, which explained 22.8% of the total variation in work stress of nursing staff (F=24.25, P<0.001) . Conclusion: The work stress among nursing staff in Tianjin City is high, the corresponding departments and nursing managers should adopt scientific management methods to reduce the workload of nursing staff according to the influencing factors of work stress, so as to create a good atmosphere for further promoting the healthy development of nursing career and nursing industry in the new era.

ABSTRACT

【Objective】 To explore a RhD negative blood collection and supply mode suitable for Liaocheng area and improve the blood demand satisfaction rate of RhD negative patients. 【Methods】 Under different collection and supply modes (collection mode: in 2020, not advocate walk-in donation by RhD negative repeat blood donors, but in 2021 and 2022 were the opposite; supply mode: in 2020, type A, B, O and AB RBCs were frozen within 6 days of blood collection without inventory, but in 2021 and 2022, they were stored of 2-6 U and the remaining were frozen within 6 days of blood collection), RhD negative blood was divided into Type A, B, O and AB, appointment donation and walk-in donation, first donation and repeat donation, cold storage red blood cells(RBCs), frozen RBCs and frozen thawed deglycerolized RBCs, and the collection and supply data of each observation group from 2020 to 2022 were compared. Based on whether blood demand of RhD negative patients was met, the patients were divided into the group of going to other places for medical treatment, the group of RhD positive blood transfusion and the group of RhD negative blood transfusion to analyze the blood usage. 【Results】 From 2020 to 2022, the proportion of RhD negative blood donated by repeat appointment donors decreased year by year (P<0.05); the proportion of RhD negative blood donated by repeat walk-in donors increased year by year (P<0.05); the proportion of frozen thawed deglycerolized RBCs to RhD negative RBCs increased year by year (P<0.05); the proportion of cold storage RBCs distributed as RhD negative and RhD positive decreased year by year respectively (P<0.05); the proportion of the increase in frozen RBCs inventory to the current year's frozen RBCs inventory decreased year by year (P<0.05). The satisfaction rate of blood demand of RhD negative patients increased year by year (P<0.05), with the number of patients with RhD positive blood transfusion and going to other places for medical treatment decreased year by year respectively(P<0.05). 【Conclusion】 In Liaocheng area, it is appropriate to encourage RhD negative blood donors to donate blood randomly, and A, B, O and AB type cold storage RBCs kept in 2-6 U inventory respectively. When exceeding the inventory, frozen RBCs are prepared within 6 days, which can improve the blood demand satisfaction rate of RhD negative patients and avoid sending excessive RhD negative RBCs to clinical use as RhD positive RBCs.

ABSTRACT

Objective@#The study aimed to determine the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on local blood supply management in the Davao Region, Philippines from 2019 to 2021 through the analysis of trends in blood supply in Davao Region, Philippines.@*Methodology@#Secondary data from two blood centers in the Davao Region for the years 2019 to 2021 were used to determine the trends on blood donation supply. To evaluate trends, the overall number of blood donors and the quantities of various types of blood components in whole blood, packed red blood cells (PRBCs), fresh frozen plasma (FFPs) and platelet concentrate have been compared between pre-pandemic, pandemic periods and as restrictions eased.@*Results@#A substantial decrease of 51.6% in the number of blood donors was seen during 2021 in comparison with 2019. The trend in collection by blood components also showed a significant trend from 2019 to 2021, whole blood (200.8%), packed RBCs (37.1%), fresh frozen plasma (113.6%). While the platelet concentrate supply declined by 34.9% from 2019 to 2020, an increase of 10.7% was noted onwards to 2021.@*Conclusion@#The results demonstrate that during the COVID-19 pandemic, there was a major reduction in donation and supply of blood. The challenges faced by blood banks in ensuring a stable and sufficient blood supply are highlighted by the decrease in the number of donors and by the different trends in the supply of blood components. The targeted efforts to promote blood donation and enhance the resilience of the blood supply during and after the pandemic is important.
