RESUMEN
Introdução: O dispositivo intrauterino (DIU) é uma das estratégias contraceptivas mais eficazes. Porém, apesar de ser amplamente distribuído pelo Sistema Único de Saúde (SUS), há baixa adesão ao método. São constatadas diversas barreiras para esse quadro, tais como desconhecimento acerca do dispositivo, além da reduzida oferta para inserção do contraceptivo por parte das Equipes de Saúde da Família (eSF). Tendo em vista que a ampliação do acesso ao DIU pode contribuir para a diminuição das gravidezes não planejadas, bem como para a autonomia e para o empoderamento das mulheres, algumas estratégias foram desenvolvidas por uma eSF para facilitar o acesso ao DIU. Objetivo: Refletir a respeito do impacto da incorporação de estratégias de educação em saúde para divulgar o método dentro da própria equipe, de sua área de cobertura e da diminuição de barreiras para a inserção, na ampliação do acesso ao DIU, no quantitativo de dispositivos inseridos, no número de gestações não planejadas e na possibilidade de aumento do empoderamento feminino. Métodos: Os dados coletados foram extraídos das informações presentes em planilhas e relatórios produzidos pela própria eSF. Utilizou-se da estatística descritiva para apresentar e analisar os dados obtidos, a partir de ferramentas de formulação de gráficos e tabelas. Resultados: Após mudança no processo de trabalho, visando ao acesso ampliado à inserção do DIU, observou-se um aumento no quantitativo do procedimento assim como na percentagem de gravidezes desejadas. Conclusões: O DIU surge como um instrumento para possibilitar o exercício dos direitos sexuais e reprodutivos e para alavancar atitudes emancipatórias das mulheres. Quanto menos barreiras as mulheres encontram para a inserção do DIU, maior é a escolha por este método, sendo a inserção por demanda espontânea, ou seja, no momento em que a mulher procura a eSF para fazê-la. Nesse sentido, as atividades de educação continuada tornam-se potentes ferramentas para possibilitar maior acesso ao método. Fazem-se necessários estudos de longa duração para que essas hipóteses sejam avaliadas, todavia, parece haver uma ligação positiva entre essas duas variáveis.
Introduction: Intrauterine device (IUD) is one of the most effective contraceptive strategies. Despite being widely distributed by the Brazilian Unified Health System (Sistema Único de Saúde SUS), there is low adherence to the method. There are several barriers to this situation, such as lack of knowledge about the device, in addition to the reduced offer for contraceptive insertion by primary health care providers. Given that increased access to the IUD can contribute to reducing unplanned pregnancies, as well as empowering women, some strategies have been developed by a primary health care team to facilitate access to IUDs. Objective: This research reflected on the impact of incorporating health education strategies to disseminate the method and reduction of barriers to insertion, broadening IUD access, the number of devices inserted, the number of unplanned pregnancy and the possibility of increased female empowerment. Methods: Data were extracted from information present in spreadsheets and reports produced by the team itself. Descriptive statistics were used to present and analyze the data obtained, using tools for formulating graphics and tables. Results: After changing the work process to expanded access to IUD insertion, an increase in the number of procedures and the percentage of planned pregnancies was observed. Conclusions: The IUD appears as an instrument to enable the exercise of sexual and reproductive rights and to leverage women's emancipatory attitudes. The fewer barriers women encounter when inserting an IUD, the greater the choice for this method, with insertion being on spontaneous demand and continuing education activities, powerful tools to enable greater access to it. Long-term studies are necessary for these hypotheses to be evaluated, however, there appears to be a positive link between these two variables.
Introducción: El dispositivo intrauterino (DIU) es una de las estrategias anticonceptivas más efectivas. Sin embargo, a pesar de su amplia distribución a través del Sistema Único de Salud, existe una baja adhesión a este método. Se han identificado diversas barreras para esta situación, como el desconocimiento sobre el dispositivo y la oferta limitada de su inserción por parte de los equipos de salud familiar (eSF). Con el objetivo de ampliar el acceso al DIU y reducir los embarazos no deseados, así como promover la autonomía y empoderamiento de las mujeres, algunos equipos de eSF han desarrollado estrategias para facilitar su acceso. Objetivo: Reflexionar sobre el impacto de la incorporación de estrategias de educación en salud para difundir el método dentro del propio equipo y su área de cobertura, así como la eliminación de barreras para la inserción, en la ampliación del acceso al DIU, en la cantidad de dispositivos insertados, en el número de embarazos no planeados y en la posibilidad de aumentar el empoderamiento femenino. Métodos: Los datos recopilados se extrajeron de las hojas de cálculo e informes producidos por el propio eSF. Se utilizó estadística descriptiva para presentar y analizar los datos obtenidos mediante herramientas de creación de gráficos y tablas. Resultados: Después de un cambio en el proceso de trabajo destinado a ampliar el acceso a la inserción del DIU, se observó un aumento en la cantidad de procedimientos realizados. También se registró un aumento en el porcentaje de embarazos deseados. Conclusiones: El DIU se presenta como una herramienta que permite el ejercicio de los derechos sexuales y reproductivos y promueve actitudes emancipatorias en las mujeres. Cuantas menos barreras encuentren las mujeres para la inserción del DIU, mayor será la elección de este método, con la inserción a demanda, es decir, cuando la mujer lo solicita al eSF, y las actividades de educación continua como poderosas herramientas para facilitar un mayor acceso. Se necesitan estudios a largo plazo para evaluar estas hipótesis, aunque parece existir una relación positiva entre estas dos variables.

RESUMEN
Objective:To extract the early result of postoperative echocardiographic evaluation in patients underwent left ventricular assist device (LVAD) implantation, and to assess the efficacy of surgical treatment for end-staged heart failure.Methods:Between June 2019 and May 2023, the patients underwent left ventricular assist device implantation were enrolled in this study. Demographic baseline characteristics and perioperative echocardiographic parameters were collected and analyzed.Results:A total of 28 patients were included in the study. After LVAD implantation, the heart sizes of the patients obviously reduced and the left heart contractibility function improved. The right ventricular contractibility remained stable. The proportion of the patients with moderate to severe mitral regurgitation was significantly reduced, but patients with mild to moderate aortic insufficiency increased. No serious complications such as death, pericardial tamponade and thrombosis events were observed during the follow-up period.Conclusion:LVAD implantation improved the left cardiac function, while the right cardiac function remained stable. However, it should be paid attention that the aortic valve function was impaired after the surgery. Generally, the early results of LVAD implantation for the treatment of end-stage heart failure were satisfactory.
RESUMEN
Objective:To analyze the effect of different vascular access on the outcome in peripheral blood stem cells collection by a network Meta-analysis, and to provide a reference for clinical medical staff to select the best vascular access.Methods:A systematic search was carried out in Chinese Knowledge Infrastructure database (CNKI), Wanfang Database, VIP Database, Chinese Biomedical Literature Database, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, PubMed, Embase, from inception until April 15, 2023. Two researchers independently screened literature and extracted data. Bayesian network meta-analysis was performed using R4.2.2 and Addis-1.16.6 softwares.Results:A total 7 pieces of research were included, 5 vascular access methods were peripheral artery, peripheral vein, artery-vein, femoral vein-central venous catheter (FV-CVC), and internal jugular vein-CVC (IJV-CVC). The results showed that compared with the peripheral veins, there was no significant difference on CD34 cells between other vascular accesses in the primary outcome measure when collected peripheral blood stem cell collection. On the single blood volume treatment time, peripheral vein and IJV-CVC were statistically significant ( MD = 14.80, 95% CI 2.70-22.38, P<0.05) . The SUCRA ranking probability chart showed that on CD34 cells, FV- CVC>IJV-CVC>artery-vein>peripheral artery>peripheral vein access; for a single blood volume treatment time and monocyte number, peripheral artery was superior and the next was peripheral vein. Conclusions:Current evidence suggested that Peripheral artery may be the best vascular access in peripheral blood stem cells collection, which opens a new way to establish the vascular access for peripheral blood stem cells collection, but it needs to be confirmed by large clinic trials.
RESUMEN
Human-animal interaction has a long-standing tradition dating back to ancient times. With the rapid advancements in intelligent chips, wearable devices, and machine algorithms, the intelligent interaction between animals and electronic technology, facilitated by electronic devices and systems for communication, perception, and control, has become a reality. These electronic devices aim to implement an animal-centric working mode to enhance human understanding of animals and promote the development of animal intelligence and creativity. This article takes medium-sized and large animals as research objects, with the goal of developing their ability enhancement, and introduces the concept of “intelligent animal augmentation system (IAAS)”. This concept is used to describe the characteristics of such devices and provides a comprehensive overview of existing animal and computer interface solutions. In general, IAAS can be divided into implantable and non-implantable types, each composed of interface platforms, perception and interpretation, control and instruction components. Through various levels of enhancement systems and architectural patterns, intelligent interaction between humans and animals can be realized. Although existing IAAS still lack a complete independent interaction system architecture, they hold great promise and development space in the future. Not only can they be applied as substitutes for cutting-edge devices and transportation equipment, but they are also expected to achieve cross-species information interaction through intelligent interconnection. Additionally, IAAS can promote bidirectional interaction between humans and animals, playing a significant role in advancing animal ethics and ecological protection. Furthermore, the development of interaction models based on animal subjects can provide insightful research experiences for the design of human-computer interaction systems, thereby contributing to the more efficient realization of the ambitious goal of human-machine integration.

RESUMEN
ABSTRACT Purpose The overuse of screen-based devices results in developmental problems in children. Parents are an integral part of the children's language development. The present study explores the parental perspectives on the impact of screen time on the language skills of typically developing school-going children using a developed questionnaire. Methods 192 parents of typically developing children between 6 and 10 years of age participated in the study. Phase 1 of the study included the development of a questionnaire targeting the impact of screen devices on language development. The questionnaire was converted into an online survey and was circulated among the parents in Phase 2. Descriptive statistics were performed on the retrieved data and a chi-square test was done to determine the association between the use of screen devices across all language parameters. Results Parents reported television and smartphones to be the most used type of device, with a large proportion of children using screen-based devices for 1-2 hours per day. Most parents reported children prefer watching screens mainly for entertainment purposes, occasionally under supervision, without depending on them as potential rewards. The impact of screen-based devices on language skills has been discussed under the semantics, syntax, and pragmatic aspects of language. Conclusion The findings of this study will help identify the existing trends in the usage of screen-based devices by children, thereby identifying potential contributing factors towards language delays. This information will also benefit in parental counselling during the interventional planning of children with language delays.
RESUMEN
Resumen OBJETIVO: Determinar la frecuencia de aceptación y los factores asociados con la anticoncepción moderna posaborto en pacientes atendidas en un hospital público de Perú. MATERIALES Y MÉTODOS: Estudio observacional y transversal efectuado en pacientes en el posaborto inmediato atendidas de junio a diciembre de 2022 en el servicio de Urgencias del Hospital San Juan de Lurigancho, Lima, Perú, seleccionadas por conveniencia. Se utilizó un cuestionario validado. Se aplicó la prueba χ2 de Pearson con un nivel de significación del 5%. RESULTADOS: Se estudiaron 166 pacientes en el posaborto inmediato de las que el 94% (n = 156) aceptó algún método anticonceptivo moderno; el más frecuente fue el inyectable mensual (44.0%) y el menos aceptado el dispositivo intrauterino (0.6%). Los factores personales asociados con la aceptación del método anticonceptivo moderno fueron: edad (p < 0.01), no tener pareja (p < 0.001) y ésta estuviera de acuerdo con el anticonceptivo elegido (p < 0.001). Los factores institucionales asociados fueron: tiempo de la consejería en planificación familiar (p = 0.047), privacidad-confidencialidad de la consejería (p < 0.001) y satisfacción con la atención ofrecida durante la orientación (p = 0.026). CONCLUSIONES: La edad, carecer de pareja y estar de acuerdo con ésta acerca de la elección del método anticonceptivo posaborto junto con los factores institucionales (tiempo de consejería en planificación familiar, importancia de la privacidad-confidencialidad y percepción de la atención en consejería en planificación familiar) se asociaron, significativamente, con la aceptación de algún método anticonceptivo moderno posaborto.
Abstract OBJECTIVE: To determine the frequency of acceptance and factors associated with modern postabortion contraception in patients attended at a public hospital in Peru. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Observational and cross-sectional study conducted in immediate postabortion patients attended from June to December 2022 at the Emergency Department of the Hospital San Juan de Lurigancho, Lima, Peru, selected by convenience. A validated questionnaire was used. Pearson's test c2 was used with a significance level of 5%. RESULTS: We studied 166 patients in the immediate postabortion period, of whom 94% (n = 156) accepted some modern contraceptive method; the most common was the monthly injectable (44.0%) and the least accepted was the intrauterine device (0.6%). Personal factors associated with modern contraceptive method acceptance were age (p < 0.01), no partner (p < 0.001), and partner's agreement with the chosen contraceptive method (p < 0.001). Associated institutional factors were agreeing with the time of family planning counseling (p = 0.047), considering the importance of privacy-confidentiality of counseling (p < 0.001), and agreeing with the care offered during counseling (p = 0.026). CONCLUSIONS: Age, lack of a partner, and agreeing with the partner about the choice of postabortion contraceptive method along with institutional factors (time of family planning counseling, importance of privacy-confidentiality, and perception of care in family planning counseling) were significantly associated with acceptance of some modern postabortion contraceptive method.
RESUMEN
ABSTRACT Objective: To perform the translation and adaptation of the Michigan Appropriateness Guide for Intravenous Catheters in Pediatrics (miniMAGIC) into Brazilian Portuguese. Methods: Methodological study performed in five recommended stages: initial translations; synthesis of the translations; back translations; assessment of the back translations; expert committee assessment. The expert committee was composed of three registered nurses and two doctors who had a Master's and/or PhD degree, and an expertise in intravenous therapy and pediatric and neonatal care. To assess the semantic, idiomatic, experiential and conceptual adequacy, a Likert scale was applied, in which 1, "not equivalent"; 2, "inequivalent"; 3, "cannot assess"; 4, "quite equivalent"; 5, "totally equivalent". The terms mostly analyzed as negative in equivalence and with a lower than 20 score were reviewed and submitted to a new assessment, with the Delphi Technique until consensus was obtained. The results were stored in electronic spreadsheets and treated with concordance index, with a minimum acceptable result of 0.80. Results: The content of all recommendations, named as miniMAGIC-Brasil, was validated by the expert committee after two stages of evaluation.

RESUMEN
ABSTRACT Introduction: Limited options in the end-stage treatment of heart failure have led to increased use of left ventricular assist devices. For this reason, the rate of non-cardiac surgeries in patients with left ventricular assist devices is also increasing. Our study aims to analyze surgical rate, anesthesia management, and results by reviewing our 11-year experience with patients who underwent non-cardiac surgery receiving left ventricular assist devices support. Methods: We retrospectively evaluated 57 patients who underwent non-cardiac surgery and 67 non-cardiac surgical procedures among 274 patients who applied between January 2011 and December 2022 and underwent left ventricular assist devices implantation with end-stage heart failure. Results: Fifty (74.6%) patients with left ventricular assist devices admitted to the hospital for non-cardiac surgery were emergency interventions. The most common reasons for admission were general surgery (52.2%), driveline wound revision (22.3%), and neurological surgery (14.9%). This patient group has the highest in-hospital mortality rate (12.8%) and the highest rate of neurological surgery (8.7%). While 70% of the patients who underwent neurosurgery were taken to surgery urgently, the International Normalized Ratio values of these patients were between 3.5 and 4.5 at the time of admission to the emergency department. Conclusion: With a perioperative multidisciplinary approach, higher morbidity and mortality risks can be reduced during emergencies and major surgical procedures.

RESUMEN
Abstract Objective: To explore women's experiences with postpartum intrauterine device (PPIUD) insertion and the decision-making process in the postpartum period. Methods: A qualitative design was employed with face-to-face interviews using a semi-structured script of open questions. The sample was intentionally selected using the concept of theoretical information saturation. Results: Interviews were conducted (1) in the immediate postpartum period, and (2) in the postpartum appointment. 25 women (N = 25) over 18 years old who had a birth followed by PPIUD insertion were interviewed between October 2021 and June 2022. Three categories were constructed: (1) Choice process, (2) Relationship with the health team at the time of birth and the postpartum period, and (3) To know or not to know about contraception, that is the question. Conclusion: Professionals' communication management, popular knowledge, advantages of the PPIUD and the moment PPIUD is offered play a fundamental role in the construction of knowledge about the IUD. Choice process did not end in the insertion.

ABSTRACT: Objective: Transpedicular fixation has rapidly evolved over the last 100 years. A common complication is screw misplacement which can lead to neurological deficits, vascular damage, or organ perforation. We intend to assess the correlation between screw misplacement and radicular symptoms through the Gertzbein scale. Methods: We conducted an observational longitudinal retrospective study on patients who underwent free-hand lumbar instrumentation surgery with fluoroscopy assistance. The patients were evaluated with postoperative CT scans, and screw positions were classified with the Gertzbein scale. Results: The initial sample included 99 patients who underwent surgery. Of the 317 screws placed, 201 did not show cortical damage, 105 screws exhibited variable invasion, and 11 screws displayed severe invasion. 96.5% screws were placed in the safe zone, with 8.6% of patients (n=5.0) exhibiting transitory weakness. 3.47% of screws (n=11) with severe invasion were seen in 7 patients of which two patients suffered from motor deficient and persistent radicular pain. Conclusion: It is of the utmost importance to pay attention to the precise insertion of the screws to minimize the risk of radicular manifestations. We recommend performing control CT scans after the procedure to ensure the correct insertion of the screws, and in case of finding a screw in a no-safe zone or Getsbein 3 position, considering screw repositioning due to high-risk neurologic damage is highly encouraged. Level of Evidence II; Observational Retrospective Study.
RESUMO: Objetivo: A fixação transpedicular evoluiu rapidamente nos últimos 100 anos, porém o deslocamento do parafuso é uma complicação comum que pode resultar em déficits neurológicos ou danos vasculares. Pretendemos correlacionar o deslocamento do parafuso com sintomas radiculares usando a escala de Gertzbein. Métodos: Conduzimos um estudo retrospectivo longitudinal observacional em pacientes submetidos à cirurgia de instrumentação lombar à mão livre com assistência de fluoroscopia. Os pacientes foram avaliados com tomografia computadorizada pós-operatória e as posições dos parafusos foram classificadas com a escala de Gertzbein. Resultados: A amostra inicial incluiu 99 pacientes. Dos 317 parafusos colocados, 201 não mostraram danos corticais, 105 exibiram invasão variável e 11 invasão severa. 96,5% dos parafusos foram colocados na zona segura, com 8,6% dos pacientes apresentando fraqueza transitório. 3,47% dos parafusos com invasão severa foram observados em 7 pacientes, dos quais 2 sofreram de deficiência motora e dor radicular persistente. Conclusão: É crucial prestar atenção à inserção precisa dos parafusos para minimizar o risco de manifestações radiculares. Recomendamos tomografias de controle para garantir a correta inserção dos parafusos e, se necessário, reposicionamento devido ao alto risco de dano neurológico. Nível de Evidência II; Estudo Observacional Retrospectivo.
