Child undernutrition in Brazil: the wound that never healed

Abstract Objective To describe the scenario of child undernutrition in Brazil and its determinants. Data source Narrative review of the literature with inclusion of data from population surveys, surveillance and monitoring systems, and active search in favelas and underserved communities carried out by CREN. Data synthesis Household surveys carried out from 1974 to 2019 indicate that undernutrition (<5 years) decreased until 2006. Underweight (W/A ≤-2 Z) and stunting (H/A ≤-2 Z) showed a decrease of 17% to 3% and 37% to 7%, respectively. After 2006, there was an increase in underweight of 53% and 76% for wasting (BMI/A ≤-2 Z), with the prevalence of stunting being stagnant at around 7%. Active search data in favelas and underserved communities show that the prevalence of stunting is 11% in those <5 years. In 2021, 30% of the population lived in poverty, 73% of which were black or brown. Stunting in black and brown children <5 years old is, respectively, 9% and 12% higher when compared to white children. Poverty decreased between 2012 and 2015 (27 to 25%), but increased again (2016=26% to 2021=30%), in parallel with food insecurity, which decreased between 2004 and 2013 (12% to 6%), but reached its worst level in the historical series (2022:15%). Conclusion Despite advances, Brazil's social protection system was not able to reduce inequalities and the reversal of the trend towards decreasing child undernutrition could be observed from 2006 onwards.

Método: Foi realizada busca na literatura no período de 18 de novembro a 12 de dezembro de 2021 nas seguintes plataformas de base de dados: Medline, Cochrane, LILACS, Embase e BVS. A estratégia de busca envolveu a combinação de vários descritores. Três investigadores independentes leram o resumo dos estudos que foram obtidos usando a estratégia de busca para avaliar aqueles que preenchiam os critérios de elegibilidade. Resultados: Inicialmente, foram levantados 33 artigos utilizando a estratégia de busca. Dentre esses, 23 estudos foram excluídos após a leitura dos resumos e avaliação dos critérios de elegibilidade, por não possuírem desfechos de interesse ao tema proposto. Assim, dez estudos preenchiam os critérios de inclusão, sendo nove estudos transversais e uma revisão de literatura. Dentre os dez artigos incluídos, nove relatam que as informações sobre lipoaspiração são precárias e imprecisas. Conclusão: O conteúdo sobre lipoaspiração disponibilizado ao público leigo por meio da Internet é, na sua maioria, insatisfatório.

Introduction: This scoping review aims to analyze the quality of information about liposuction for the lay public. Method: A literature search was carried out from November 18 to December 12, 2021, on the following database platforms: Medline, Cochrane, LILACS, Embase, and VHL. The search strategy involved the combination of several descriptors. Three independent investigators read the abstract of studies obtained using the search strategy to evaluate those that met the eligibility criteria. Results: Initially, 33 articles were collected using the search strategy. Among these, 23 studies were excluded after reading the abstracts and evaluating the eligibility criteria, as they did not have outcomes of interest to the proposed topic. Thus, ten studies met the inclusion criteria, nine of which were cross-sectional and one literature review. Among the ten articles included, nine report that information about liposuction is poor and inaccurate. Conclusion: The content on liposuction made available to the lay public via the Internet is, for the most part, unsatisfactory.

Modelo alternativo para o treinamento de técnicas de microssuturas em "patch" de pericárdio bovino / Alternative model for training microsuture techniques in bovine pericardium patches

Introdução: As técnicas microcirúrgicas caracterizam-se pela aplicação de manobras e suturas em estruturas milimétricas com o auxílio de lentes de aumento. São técnicas complexas, utilizadas em diversas especialidades médicas, que demandam grande habilidade e treinamento antes da aplicação em humanos. O objetivo é desenvolver um modelo de baixo custo e alta fidelidade, para o treinamento de técnicas de microcirurgia, utilizando um fragmento de patch de pericárdio bovino. Método: São utilizados para a confecção deste modelo segmentos remanescentes de uma placa de pericárdio bovino, previamente utilizado em reparos vasculares. O material é recortado em duas partes simétricas e suas extremidades fixadas aos campos cirúrgicos, com auxílio de clamps. A borda superior de cada uma das partes é, então, suturada à borda inferior com fio de Prolene 8-0, de maneira que cada uma forme uma estrutura tubular. Posteriormente, as extremidades tubulares livres passam pela dissecção da camada adventícia e são suturadas entre si, mimetizando uma anastomose vascular término-terminal. Resultados: Com o modelo, simulam-se os mesmos inconvenientes/ dificuldades presentes nas suturas vasculares humanas, como a delaminação de camadas, excesso da camada adventícia e risco de sutura inadvertida da parede posterior, provando sua utilidade na aquisição de habilidades microcirúrgicas básicas, sem necessidade de manipulação de tecidos humanos ou animais. A prática neste modelo pode ocorrer dentro do próprio centro cirúrgico e emprega materiais que seriam descartados. Conclusão: A utilização do pericárdio bovino para confecção de suturas milimétricas mimetiza o tecido vascular humano e é um procedimento de baixo custo, que possibilita o treinamento de habilidades microcirúrgicas.

Introduction: Microsurgical techniques are characterized by the application of maneuvers and sutures to millimetric structures with the aid of magnifying lenses. These are complex techniques, used in various medical specialties, which require great skill and training before applying them to humans. The objective is to develop a lowcost and high-fidelity model for training microsurgery techniques using a fragment of bovine pericardium patch. Method: Remaining segments of a bovine pericardium plate, previously used in vascular repairs, are used to create this model. The material is cut into two symmetrical parts, and its ends are fixed to the surgical drapes with the aid of clamps. The upper edge of each part is then sutured to the lower edge with 8-0 Prolene thread so that each one forms a tubular structure. Subsequently, the free tubular ends undergo dissection of the adventitial layer and are sutured together, mimicking an end-to-end vascular anastomosis. Results: With the model, the same inconveniences/ difficulties present in human vascular sutures are simulated, such as delamination of layers, excess of the adventitial layer, and risk of inadvertent suturing of the posterior wall, proving its usefulness in the acquisition of basic microsurgical skills, without need to manipulate human or animal tissues. Practice in this model can take place within the surgical center itself and uses materials that would otherwise be discarded. Conclusion: The use of bovine pericardium to create millimetric sutures mimics human vascular tissue and is a low-cost procedure that allows the training of microsurgical skills.

Pandemia de COVID-19 e a saúde dos estudantes: análise da correlação entre psicopatologias e a síndrome de Burnout / COVID-19 Pandemic and student health: analysis of the correlation between psychopathologies and Burnout syndrome

Analisar a correlação entre estresse, ansiedade e depressão com a síndrome de Burnout em estudantes de graduação de uma universidade pública federal. Trata-se de um estudo exploratório-descritivo, com abordagem quantitativa, que utilizou um questionário on-line para coleta de dados, que ocorreu entre dezembro de 2021 e março de 2022, disponibilizado por e-mail. Participaram 169 discentes, e a correlação entre as variáveis sociodemográficas e as dimensões estresse, ansiedade e depressão evidenciou que os brasileiros, principalmente as mulheres e praticantes de alguma religião, mostraram escores mais elevados. Quanto à síndrome de Burnout, notaram-se valores altos para as dimensões exaustão emocional e eficácia profissional, mas escores baixos para a dimensão descrença. Ao verificar-se a correlação entre a escala de ansiedade, depressão e estresse e a síndrome de Burnout, percebeu-se uma relação negativa entre seus domínios e a eficácia estudantil. Revelou-se também uma correlação entre a depressão e a exaustão emocional.

To analyze the correlation between stress, anxiety, and depression with the Burnout syndrome in undergraduate students at a federal public university. This is an exploratory descriptive study, with a quantitative approach, which used an online questionnaire for data collection, which took place from December 2021 to March 2022, available by email. 169 students participated in the study, in which the correlation between sociodemographic variables and the dimensions stress, anxiety and depression showed that Brazilians, especially women and practitioners of some religion, showed higher scores. As for the Burnout syndrome, high values were observed for the emotional exhaustion and professional efficacy dimensions, but low scores for the disbelief dimension. When verifying the correlation between the anxiety, depression and stress scale and the Burnout syndrome, a negative relationship between its domains and student effectiveness was noticed. A correlation was also revealed between depression and emotional exhaustion.

A promising alternative for mature skin: the effects of phytoestrogens on human skin and its topical use / Alternativa promissora para peles maduras: os efeitos dos fitoestrógenos na pele humana e seu uso tópico

Skin quality deteriorates with age for various reasons, including hormone deficiencies. In women, the decline in estrogen levels during menopause plays an important role in skin degeneration, with consequent atrophy, collagen reduction, loss of elasticity, and impaired wound healing. Research has demonstrated the beneficial effects of topical phytoestrogen in preventing and repairing skin aging, with localized action and without side effects. The objective of this study was to review the relevant literature, demonstrating that this can be a safe and effective alternative for treating the skin of perimenopausal women.

A qualidade da pele deteriora-se com a idade por vários motivos, incluindo as deficiências hormonais. Nas mulheres, o declínio dos níveis de estrógeno, durante a menopausa, tem papel importante na degeneração cutânea, com consequente atrofia, redução do colágeno, perda de elasticidade e deficiência da cicatrização de feridas. Pesquisas têm demonstrado efeitos benéficos do fitoestrogênio tópico na prevenção e reparação do envelhecimento cutâneo, com ação localizada e sem efeitos colaterais. O objetivo deste estudo foi revisar a literatura pertinente ao assunto, demonstrando que esta pode ser uma alternativa segura e eficaz para o tratamento da pele de mulheres na perimenopausa.

Milky secretion after late breast reconstruction with latissimus dorsi musculocutaneous flap with implant / Produção de secreção leitosa após reconstrução mamária tardia com retalho musculocutâneo de latíssimo do dorso com implante

We present a rare case of a 28-year-old patient with invasive ductal carcinoma who underwent neoadjuvant chemotherapy, modified radical mastectomy, radiotherapy, and late breast reconstruction with latissimus dorsi flap associated with the implant. One year later, she underwent reconstruction of the nipple-areola complex over the cutaneous island of the latissimus dorsi flap with a total skin graft from the thigh and graft from the caudal portion of the contralateral papilla. She became pregnant six months after the reconstruction of the nipple-areola complex and, unexpectedly, presented milk production by the reconstructed breast.

Frailty syndrome, feelings of impotence and functional capacity in elderly patients with venous ulcers / Síndrome de fragilidade, sentimento de impotência e capacidade funcional em idosos portadores de úlcera venosa

Introduction: Chronic venous ulcers have a negative impact on the physical, psychic, and social domains, affecting the quality of life of patients, especially the elderly. This study aimed to assess frailty, functional capacity, and feelings of helplessness in older people with venous ulcers. Method: 112 older people were divided into two groups according to the presence or absence of venous ulcers. All patients were interviewed using the Edmonton Frail Scale (EFS), Health Assessment Questionnaire-20 (HAQ20), and the Impotence Feelings Measurement Instrument (IMSI) from May 2017 to August 2018. Results: Regarding the EFS score, 76.8% of patients with venous ulcers were classified as vulnerable and frail, compared to 28.6% of patients in the group without ulcers. Scores on the HAQ-20 showed statistically significant differences between groups in all categories of the instrument, indicating that older people with venous ulcers had reduced general functional capacity compared to older people without ulcers. The mean IMSI score was 41.2 for the group with venous ulcers and 33.4 for the group without ulcers. Conclusion: Venous ulcers had a negative impact on functional capacity and increased frailty and feelings of powerlessness in the elderly.

Augmentation mammoplasty and autologous fat transplantation: an alternative for the treatment of hypomastia and mild pectus excavatum - Case report / Mamoplastia de aumento e transplante de gordura autóloga: uma alternativa para o tratamento da hipomastia e pectus excavatum leve - Relato de caso

Pectus excavatum(PE) is a congenital chest deformity characterized by deep depression in the sternum. Autologous fat transplantation has been used for aesthetic purposes, mainly on the face, and has recently gained relevance in thoracic and breast surgeries. The present study aims to present a case of mild PE associated with hypomastia. A 24-year-old female patient attended the consultation for breast augmentation due to hypomastia, but the clinical examination also revealed an associated mild PE that the patient did not notice. Surgical planning included breast augmentation and autologous fat transfer. A 260ml silicone breast implant was used, and 250ml of fat was injected in the sternal region and the lower medial contour of the breasts. There were no complications during the 12-month follow-up period. The combination of augmentation mammoplasty and fat transplantation in treating PE deformity proved to be a minimally invasive, good, safe option with high patient satisfaction.

Objective: Design a proposal of educational intervention for both, people who live with Diabetes Mellitus type 2 and their family caregiver. Methodology: Methodology. A case series study was conducted with the participation of 12 people living with type 2 diabetes mellitus and attending a Mutual Help Group in Pachuquilla, Hidalgo. Sociodemographic data, somatometric measurements (weight, height, BMI, waist circumference), blood pressure, and capillary blood samples for glycosylated hemoglobin were collected. Results: The mean age was 64 and range of 39-79 years, O.D. of 12; 67% women; 25% finished secondary school, 50% worked at home, 17% in commerce, 33% unemployed; 58% married, 25% widowed, and 17% divorced and in common law; 33.% with less than 5 years diagnosed, 67% have been diagnosed for more than 5 years; 75% depend economically; 67% have complications, 75% with family support, in diabetes knowledge 33% obtained intermediate score and 67% inadequate score; the weight average was of 77 kg and range of 57-116.5 kg, and O.D. 17 kg; in waist circumference, 100% exceed the recommended limit, in BMI, 50% is classified as overweight and 50% as obese; in blood pressure 50% > 130/80 mmHg and in glycosylated hemoglobin 75% > 7% mg/dl. Conclusion: The currently implemented strategy does not reflect good knowledge and control of the disease. This study invites us to continue with research where an educational intervention is implemented in which family caregivers are included and active participation is encouraged, in addition to implementing the IEP as a theoretical basis for the intervention.

Quality of breast reconstruction service at a university hospital as assessed by the patients

Purpose: To evaluate the quality of breast reconstruction service at a university hospital, as assessed by the patients. Methods: This cross-sectional study enrolled adult women who underwent immediate or delayed breast reconstruction by any technique performed at a university hospital between 1 and 24 months before the assessment. The Brazilian version of the Health Service Quality Scale (HSQS) was self-applied to the participants. The HSQS produces percentage scores, which are expressed in values ranging from 0 to 10 for each domain of the scale, and into an overall percentage quality score. The management team was asked to establish a minimum satisfactory score for the breast reconstruction service. Results: Ninety patients were included. The management team considered 8.00 the minimum satisfactory score for the service. The overall percentage score was 93.3%. Only one domain, 'Support,' had an average score lower than that considered satisfactory (7.22 ± 3.0); while the others had higher scores. The domain that scored highest was 'Qualification' (9.94 ± 0.3), followed by 'Result' (9.86 ± 0.4). There was a positive correlation between 'type of oncologic surgery' and 'intentions of loyalty to the service' (ρ = 0.272; p = 0.009) and a negative correlation between 'education' and 'quality of the environment' (ρ = ­0.218; p = 0.039). The higher the patient's level of education, the higher the score attributed to 'relationship' (ρ = 0.261; p = 0.013) and the lower the score of 'aesthetics and functionality' (ρ = ­0.237; p = 0.024). Conclusion: The quality of the breast reconstruction service was considered satisfactory, but there is a demand for structural improvements, better interpersonal relationships, and a stronger support network for patients.

A novel method for testing accuracy of bite registration using intraoral scanners / 대한치과교정학회지

Objective@#The evidence on the accuracy of bite registration using intraoral scanners is sparse. This study aimed to develop a new method for evaluating bite registration accuracy using intraoral scanners. @*Methods@#Two different types of models were used; 10 stone models and 10 with acrylic resin teeth. A triangular frame with cylindrical posts at each apex (one anterior and two posteriors) was digitally designed and manufactured using three-dimensional (3D) printing. Such a structure was fitted in the lingual space of each maxillary and mandibular model so that, in occlusion, the posts would contact their opposing counterparts, enforcing a small interocclusal gap between the two arches. This ensured no tooth interference and full contact between opposing posts. Bite registration accuracy was evaluated by measuring the distance between opposing posts, with small values indicating high-accuracy. Three intraoral scanners were used: Medit i500, Primescan, and Trios 4. Viewbox software was used to measure the distance between opposing posts and compute roll and pitch. @*Results@#The average maximum error in interocclusal registration exceeded 50 μm. Roll and pitch orientation errors ranged above 0.1 degrees, implying an additional interocclusal error of around 40 μm or more. The models with acrylic teeth exhibited higher errors. @*Conclusions@#A method that avoids the need for reference hardware and the imprecision of locating reference points on tooth surfaces, and offers simplicity in the assessment of bite registration with an intraoral scanner, was developed. These results suggest that intraoral scanners may exhibit clinically significant errors in reproducing the interocclusal relationships.

Occupational Lung Diseases: Spectrum of Common Imaging Manifestations

Occupational lung diseases (OLD) are a group of preventable conditions caused by noxious inhalation exposure in the workplace. Workers in various industries are at a higher risk of developing OLD. Despite regulations contributing to a decreased incidence, OLD remain among the most frequently diagnosed work-related conditions, contributing to significant morbidity and mortality. A multidisciplinary discussion (MDD) is necessary for a timely diagnosis. Imaging, particularly computed tomography, plays a central role in diagnosing OLD and excluding other inhalational lung diseases. OLD can be broadly classified into fibrotic and non-fibrotic forms. Imaging reflects variable degrees of inflammation and fibrosis involving the airways, parenchyma, and pleura. Common manifestations include classical pneumoconioses, chronic granulomatous diseases (CGD), and small and large airway diseases. Imaging is influenced by the type of inciting exposure. The findings of airway disease may be subtle or solely uncovered upon expiration. High-resolution chest CT, including expiratory-phase imaging, should be performed in all patients with suspected OLD. Radiologists should familiarize themselves with these imaging features to improve diagnostic accuracy.

Mesenchymal stem cells in lung diseases and their potential use in COVID-19 ARDS: A systematized review

Abstract COVID-19 can converge with the pro-inflammatory immunoregulatory mechanisms of chronic lung diseases. Given the disorders inherent to lung transplantation and the inexistence of other definitive therapeutic alternatives, Adipose tissue-derived Stem Cells (ASCs) presented themselves as a therapeutic hope. The purpose of this review is to assess the basis for the potential use of ASCs in lung diseases unresponsive to conventional therapy, relating to their possible use in COVID-19 ARDS. 35 studies comprised this review, 14 being narrative reviews, 19 preclinical trials and two proofs of concept. COVID-19 can converge with the pro-inflammatory immunoregulatory mechanisms of chronic lung diseases. In view of the disorders inherent to lung transplantation and the inexistence of definitive therapeutic alternatives, Adipose tissue-derived Stem Cells (ASCs) presented themselves as a therapeutic hope. Its detailed reading indicated the absence of serious adverse effects and toxicity to the administration of ASCs and suggested possible effectiveness in reducing lung damage, in addition to promoting the recovery of leukocytes and lymphocytes with its immunomodulatory and anti-apoptotic effects. The revised clinical data suggests optimism in the applicability of ASCs in other immunoinflammatory diseases and in severe COVID-19 ARDS. However, further studies are needed to develop a consensus on the methods of collection of ASCs, the ideal dosage schedule, the most effective time and route of administration, as well as on the definition of indications for the administration of ASCs in cases of COVID-19 for conducting clinical trials in near future.

Impact of breast augmentation on female sexuality

SUMMARY INTRODUCTION: The breasts are symbols of femininity, sexuality, and maternity. Breast augmentation is among the most sought-after procedures for women and has a positive impact on quality of life. Sexuality is one of the items that contribute to increased quality of life. Surgical outcomes can be evaluated from the patients' perspective using developed and validated questionnaires. For the assessment of sexuality, the most commonly used instruments are the Female Sexual Quotient and the Female Sexual Function Index, which estimate several domains of sexuality and can be used to evaluate the impact of surgery on it. OBJECTIVE: The objective of this study was to evaluate the impact of breast augmentation on female sexuality. METHODS: We selected 87 patients from the Plastic Surgery Outpatient Clinic of Hospital São Paulo (Federal University of São Paulo) who wished to undergo breast augmentation. The patients were classified into two groups: the Female Sexual Quotient questionnaire was applied to one group, and the Female Sexual Function Index questionnaire was applied to the other group to evaluate sexuality preoperatively as well as at 2 and 4 months postoperatively. RESULTS: In both groups, there was a significant increase in the total score of the Female Sexual Quotient and Female Sexual Function Index questionnaires, and an individual increase in each domain assessed, with a significant increase in the domains of orgasm and sexual satisfaction, as well as foreplay and arousal, indicating an improvement in the patients' sexuality postoperatively. CONCLUSION: Breast augmentation has a positive impact on female sexuality; furthermore, the Female Sexual Quotient and Female Sexual Function Index are sensitive in detecting this impact.

Fibromatosis subescapular como causa de escápula alada. Presentación de un caso y revisión bibliográfica / Subscapularis fibromatosis as a cause of winged scapula. Case report and literature review

La escápula alada suele producirse por lesiones neurológicas tanto del nervio espinal como del nervio torácico largo. La aparición a causa de un tumor ventral de la escápula dificulta su diagnóstico inicial. Presentamos el caso de una mujer joven, con limitación para la rotación externa del hombro, sin antecedentes traumáticos conocidos, evolución progresiva e imagen compatible con una lesión de partes blandas dependiente de la aponeurosis del músculo subescapular confirmada por biopsia como un tumor desmoide. Aunque se trata de un tumor benigno y autolimitado, tiene una inquietante alta tasa de recidivas después de la resección, por lo que se dispone de numerosos tratamientos y muchos grupos optan por hacer un seguimiento médico estrecho de los factores pronósticos y las limitaciones funcionales del paciente, con lo que obtienen resultados satisfactorios y, en algunas series, superiores a los del tratamiento quirúrgico. Nivel de Evidencia: IV

Winged scapula is usually caused by neurological injuries to both the spinal nerve and the long thoracic nerve. Its presence as a result of a ventral scapular tumor makes initial diagnosis difficult. We present the case of a young woman with limited external shoulder rotation, no known traumatic history, and images consistent with a soft tissue lesion dependent on subscapular muscle aponeurosis, which was confirmed by biopsy as a desmoid tumor. Although it is a benign, self-limiting tumor, it has an alarmingly high rate of relapse after resection, so many treatments are available, and many teams choose to closely monitor the patient's prognostic factors and functional limitations, obtaining satisfactory outcomes and, in some series, superior to those of surgical treatment. Level of Evidence: IV
