Itinerários terapêuticos de mulheres quilombolas do norte de Minas Gerais, Brasil / Therapeutic itineraries of quilombola women in northern Minas Gerais, Brazil

Resumo Os quilombolas são grupos étnico-raciais de ancestralidade negra e tiveram seus territórios consolidados no Brasil em regiões com acesso difícil e distante dos grandes centros. O objetivo desse estudo é conhecer o itinerário terapêutico (IT) adotado por mulheres quilombolas em comunidades tradicionais localizadas no norte do estado de Minas Gerais. Trata-se de um estudo com abordagem qualitativa com o modelo teórico utilizando o sistema de cuidados à saúde de Arthur Kleinman. O estudo se deu em 23 comunidades quilombolas do norte de Minas Gerais. Foram entrevistadas 40 mulheres quilombolas, com idades entre 25 e 89 anos. A análise dos dados foi realizada seguindo os IT. Emergiram unidades de análise que foram agrupadas em três categorias: as mulheres quilombolas e o significado da saúde e do cuidado; o sistema de cuidado profissional nas comunidades quilombolas; e itinerário de cuidados nas situações vivenciadas pelas mulheres. O itinerário terapêutico das comunidades se mostra relacionado principalmente às ações de medicina popular. Foi possível observar ainda que existem fragilidades em relação à atenção à saúde devido a fatores como dificuldade de acesso aos serviços institucionalizados.

Abstract Quilombolas are ethnic-racial groups, of black ancestry, and had their territories consolidated in Brazil in regions with difficult access and far from large centers. The objective of this study is to know the therapeutic itinerary (IT) adopted by quilombola women in traditional communities located in the North of the state of Minas Gerais. This is a qualitative study with the theoretical model using the Arthur Kleinman health care system. The study scenario was 23 quilombola communities in northern Minas Gerais. Forty quilombola women aged between 25 and 89 years were interviewed. Data analysis was performed following the IT. Units of analysis emerged that were grouped into three categories: quilombola women and the meaning of health and care; the professional care system in quilombola communities; and route of care in situations experienced by women. The therapeutic itinerary of the communities is mainly related to the actions of popular medicine. It was also possible to observe that there are weaknesses in relation to health care due to factors such as difficulty of access to institutionalized services.

Estado nutricional autopercibido y riesgo cardiovascular en grupos étnicos de adultos de La Guajira colombiana

Objetivo: Determinar la autopercepción del estado nutricional y el riesgo cardiovascular (RCV) de los grupos étnicos de La Guajira colombiana. Materiales y métodos: Estudio descriptivo-transversal en 233 individuos adultos de zonas urbanas en tres municipios de La Guajira. Se evaluó la autopercepción del estado nutricional, la intención de realizar actividad física (AF), estado nutricional, calculando el índice de masa corporal (IMC) y el riesgo cardiovascular a través del índice cintura-cadera [Ci/Ca]), estas se relacionaron con el grupo étnico (afrocolombiano, indígena y no étnico) y el estrato socioeconómico (1, 2 y >3). Se calcularon Odd Ratios (OR) para determinar la relación entre el RCV y el resto de las variables. Resultados: El 56,7 % de la muestra fueron mujeres, un 38,2 % afrocolombianos, un 32,2 % conformado por población indígena. El 65,2 % no contemplaba realizar AF y el 58,4 % presentó una autopercepción de su estado nutricional normal. Se encontró además que solo un 39,5 % presentó un IMC normal; un 48,5 % presentó un alto RCV. Se observó un alto RCV en mujeres afro-colombianas (OR= 3,22; IC 95 % 1,3-7,8) e indígenas (OR= 4,35; IC 95 % 1,7-10,9) en comparación con mujeres no étnicas (OR= 1, condición de referencia); así mismo, un mayor RCV en mujeres y hombres con sobrepeso y obesidad (p < 0,05). Conclusiones: Existe una alta prevalencia de RCV en la población de La Guajira, especialmente en las mujeres afrocolombianas e indígenas, siendo el IMC un indicador asociado al RCV en ellas.

Objective: To determine the self-perception of nutritional status and cardiovascular risk (CVR) of ethnic groups in La Guajira, Colombia. Materials and methods: Descriptive-cross-sectional study in 233 adult individuals from urban areas in three municipalities of La Guajira. Self-perception of nutritional status, intention to engage in physical activity (PA), nutritional status, calculating body mass index (BMI) and cardiovascular risk through waist-hip index [Ci/Ca]) were evaluated, these were related to ethnic group (Afro-Colombian, indigenous and non-ethnic) and socioeconomic stratum (1, 2 and >3). Odd Ratios (OR) were calculated to determine the relationship between CVR and the rest of the variables. Results: 56.7% of the sample were women, 38.2% were Afro-Colombian, 32.2% were indigenous population. 65.2 % did not consider doing PA and 58.4 % presented a self-perception of their nutritional status as normal. It was also found that only 39.5 % had a normal BMI; 48.5 % had a high CVR. A high CVR was observed in Afro-Colombian (OR= 3.22; 95 % CI 1.3-7.8) and indigenous women (OR= 4.35; 95 % CI 1.7-10.9) compared to non-ethnic women (OR= 1, reference condition); likewise, a higher CVR in overweight and obese women and men (p < 0.05). Conclusions: there is a high prevalence of CVR in the population of La Guajira, especially in Afro-Colombian and indigenous women, with BMI being an indicator associated with CVR in them.

Analysis on the characteristics of rural blood donation population in Dali Bai Autonomous Prefecture / 中国输血杂志

【Objective】 To explore the status and characteristics of voluntary blood donors in rural areas of Dali Bai Autonomous Prefecture (referred as Dali), and to provide basis for scientific and effective voluntary blood donation in rural population in regions inhabited by ethnic groups. 【Methods】 The data of rural blood donors who donated blood in Dali from 2010 to 2019 were collected, including demographic data as nationality, gender, age, educational background, as well as the blood donation frequency and blood infection screening (index) results. The above data of urban blood donors who donated blood in Dali during the same period were selected to investigate the increasing trend of blood donation rate. SPSS26.0 was used for statistical analysis of the collected data of rural and urban blood donation population. 【Results】 From 2010 to 2019,the number of blood donors in Dali increased from 13 949 to 19 479,with an increasing rate of 39.64%. The number of rural blood donors increased from 2 623 to 8 727,among which the number of ethnic minority groups increased from 1 779 to 5 059.The ratio of male to female blood donors was 70.30% (1 844/2 623) vs 29.70% (779/2 623) in 2010,56.37% (4 919/8 727) vs 43.63%(3 808/8 727) in 2019. Those with educational level of junior middle school or below were the most, accounted for 43.97%(38 443/85 836),with ethnic donors of 24.47%(23 583/85 836). The proportion of donors aged between 36 and 45 was the highest[40.73% (30 477/74 827) ], with ethnic donors of [28.56% (21 374/74 827), and the proportion of repeated blood donors was 54.87%(35 279/64 299),with ethnic donors of 49.89%(18 080/36 240) [the proportion of repeated blood donors in urban donors in the same period was 48.13% (55 677/115 675) ] (P0.05). 【Conclusion】 It is of great significance to explore the characteristics of blood donors in rural areas (especially regions inhabited by ethnic groups) and the reasons for disqualification, in order to scientifically carry out the recruitment of voluntary blood donors and further promote blood donation for rural residents

Relationship between histone deacetylase gene polymorphism and type 2 diabetes mellitus in Bai and Han populations in Dali of Yunnan Province / 中国基层医药

Objective:To investigate the relationship between histone deacetylase (HDAC) gene polymorphism and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) in Bai and Han populations in Dali of Yunnan province.Methods:A total of 148 patients with T2DM of Bai and Han nationalities who received treatment in Dali Bai Autonomous Prefecture People's Hospital from May 2019 to March 2021 were included in the T2DM group. An additional 100 healthy controls of Bai and Han nationalities who concurrently received physical examination in the same hospital from May 2019 to December 2020 were included in the normal control group. The susceptibility genes of T2DM were detected using the Taqman MGB probe method. The susceptibility gene loci were amplified using polymerase chain reaction. The whole sequence of susceptibility gene was sequenced.Results:There were no significant differences in the distribution frequencies of rs2530223 genotype, rs11741808 genotype, rs2547547 genotype, and rs1741981 genotype between Bai and Han populations (all P > 0.05). There was a significant difference in blood lipid level between four loci ( t = -1.06, -0.19, 0.39, -2.12, -2.04, 0.16, 1.47, < 0.01, -0.16, -3.17, -2.93, 0.69, -2.58, -2.33, all P < 0.05). There was a significant difference in homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance between different states (all P < 0.05). The frequency distributions of each genotype and each allele did not differ significantly between healthy control people of Bai nationality and T2DM patients of Bai nationality and between healthy control people of Han nationality and T2DM patients of Han nationality (all P > 0.05). Logistic regression analysis showed that the polymorphism was not an independent risk factor for T2DM. Conclusion:The relationships between HDAC gene polymorphism and T2DM, obesity and dyslipidemia differ between Bai and Han populations.

Las personas jornaleras y la COVID-19: prevención y condiciones laborales en Sonora, México

Objetivo. Analizar la relación de las condiciones sociolaborales con el cuidado de la salud ante la COVID-19 entre la población jornalera en dos municipios de Sonora, México. Metodología. A través de entrevistas semiestructuradas y observaciones de campo, se evaluaron las prácticas de cuidado y las disposiciones sanitarias implementadas por los centros de trabajo agrícola. Se realizaron 22 entrevistas, 18 en el municipio de Hermosillo, y 4 en San Miguel de Horcasitas. Resultados. Las actividades agrícolas en México no cesaron, las personas continuaron sus labores en un contexto diverso de medidas preventivas. Encontramos una disparidad en las distintas unidades productivas, las cuales llevaron a cabo protocolos orientados al cuidado de la cosecha, pero en detrimento de la salud humana. El medio de transporte agrícola y la práctica de pagos en las localidades carecieron de acciones suficientes para prevenir el contagio. Conclusiones. Las condiciones sociolaborales obstaculizan la mitigación de la pandemia. Bajo ese panorama, necesariamente las autoridades competentes deben homogeneizar los protocolos sanitarios ante la COVID-19.

Objective: To analyze the relationship between socio-labor conditions and health care in the face of COVID-19 among the farmworkers in two municipalities of Sonora, Mexico. Method: . Through semi-structured interviews and field observations, the care practices and health provisions implemented by the agricultural work centers were analyzed. Twenty-two interviews were conducted, 18 in the municipality of Hermosillo and 4 in San Miguel de Horcasitas. Results: Agricultural activities in Mexico did not cease and farmworkers continued their work in a diverse context of prevention measures. We found a disparity between the different productive units, which carried out protocols oriented to the care of the harvest to the detriment of human health. The means of agricultural transport lacked sufficient attention in terms of contagion prevention. The practice of payments in the localities without a sanitary protocol was evident. Conclusion: The intervention of the health authorities is necessary to homogenize the prevention protocols in the face of COVID-19. Socio-labor conditions are an obstacle to pandemic mitigation.

Factores de riesgo asociados a diabetes mellitus en comunidades indígenas de cuatro países (Argentina, Brasil, Colombia y Chile) en el periodo 2010-2020 / Risk factors associated with diabetes mellitus in indigenous communities of four countries (Argentina, Brazil, Colombia, and Chile) in the period 2010-2020

RESUMEN Objetivos Comparar factores de riesgo asociados a diabetes mellitus en comunidades indígenas de cuatro países (Argentina, Brasil, Colombia y Chile) en el periodo 2010-2020. Métodos Se hizo una revisión de literatura y la recolección de información se realizó a través de consulta en diferentes bases de datos como: SciELO, PubMed, Dialnet, LILACS, en idiomas español, portugués e inglés; la selección de documentos se llevó a cabo a través de una matriz de sistematización y el empleo de criterios preestablecidos. Resultados Se destacaron factores personales como ser adulto mayor, sexo femenino, bajo nivel de escolaridad y hábitos alimenticios poco saludables; dentro de los aspectos culturales, poca adherencia a los tratamientos convencionales y consumo de hierbas y plantas medicinales; respecto a los aspectos sociales, estuvo relacionada la migración, la poca accesibilidad a servicios de salud y la falta de profesionales que conozcan los códigos culturales. Conclusión En cada país existe una predilección por un factor de riesgo específico. Sin embargo, existen similitudes en cuanto a características personales, hábitos nutricionales y factores culturales; la conjugación de estos permite que la enfermedad tenga mayor incidencia en unos países frente a otros. Además, se observa un cambio significativo de factores que incluyen aspectos del entorno.

ABSTRACT Objectives To compare risk factors associated with diabetes mellitus in indigenous communities in four countries (Argentina, Brazil, Colombia, and Chile), in the period 2010-2020. Methods The collection of information was carried out through consultation in different databases such as: SciELO, PubMed, Dialnet, LILACS, in Spanish, Portuguese and English; the selection of documents was carried out through a systematization matrix and the use of pre-established criteria. Results It was highlighted as personal factors to be an older adult, female sex, low level of schooling and unhealthy eating habits; within the cultural aspects the low adherence to conventional treatments and consumption of herbs and medicinal plants; regarding social aspects, migration, poor accessibility to health services and the lack of professionals who know cultural codes were related. Conclusion Each country has a predilection for a specific factor, however, there are similarities in terms of personal characteristics, nutritional habits, and cultural factors; the conjugation of these allows the disease to have a higher incidence in some countries compared to others; in addition, there is a significant change in factors that include aspects of the environment.

The prevalence and related factors of pre?diabetes and diabetes among overweight and obese children in Urban schools

Objective: This study aimed to determine the prevalence of pre?diabetes and diabetes among overweight and obese children in urban schools and factors associated with them, in Batticaloa District, Sri Lanka. Methods: A school based cross?sectional descriptive study was conducted to collect data on socio-demographic information, eating habits and physical activities, using a validated, pre-tested questionnaire. In addition, anthropometric measurements and glycosylated haemoglobin (HbA1c) test were performed. Multivariate logistic regression analyze was performed to identify the factors associated with glycemic status by using SPSS v23. Results: Out of the 269 children recruited, 59% were obese. Prevalence of pre?diabetes (HbA1c 5.7%�4%) and diabetes (HbA1c ? 6.5%) were 20.1% (95% CI 15.5%�.4%) and 3.3% (95% CI 1.5%�3%) respectively. Multivariate regression shows that having a BMI of ? 27.5Kg/m2 (AOR=2.69), male gender (AOR=2.71) and ethnicity (AOR = 2.58) were found to be significant factors for higher HbA1c (?5.7%). Conclusions: Prevalence of prediabetes and diabetes among overweight and obese school children was high and mainly associated with body weight which is a modifiable risk factor. Lifestyle modifications focusing on weight reduction among overweight and obese school children especially boys, need to be carried out.

Conclusion:The co-existence of HLA-Cw*0602 and LCE3B_LCE3C-del may increase the risk of psoriasis vulgaris in a population of Mongolian nationality in Inner Mongolia.

Cultural practices of health care and illness of elderly people descendants of Ukrainians / Prácticas culturales del cuidado de la salud y enfermedad de ancianos descendientes de ucranianos / Práticas culturais de cuidados à saúde e doença de idosos descendentes de ucranianos

ABSTRACT Objective: To interpret the cultural practices of health care and illness of elderly people descendants of Ukrainians. Method: Qualitative research developed with two family general informants and 22 elderly key informants, from August 2017 to March 2020, in a rural community, analyzed through domains, taxonomies and cultural theme. The cultural theme is based on the Theory of Culture Care Diversity and Universality. Results: Four cultural domains and taxonomies and a cultural theme emerged. In the cultural theme, the term "purity" represents the practices that can be maintained by the elderly, family and community. The term "hidden face of danger" are practices that require negotiations and restructuring, however, they occupy a valuable space for cultural preservation. Final considerations: The cultural practices of health care and illness of the elderly were shaped both by the culture of Ukrainian origin, as well as by the culture of their current belonging, the Brazilian one.

RESUMEN Objetivo: Interpretar las prácticas culturales del cuidado de la salud y enfermedad de ancianos descendientes de ucranianos. Método: Investigación cualitativa desarrollada con dos informantes generales familiares y 22 informantes clave ancianos, de agosto de 2017 a marzo de 2020, en una comunidad rural, analizada a través de dominios, taxonomías y temática cultural. El tema cultural se basa en la Teoría de la Diversidad y de la Universalidad del Cuidado Cultural. Resultados: Surgieron cuatro dominios culturales y taxonomías y un tema cultural. En el tema cultural, el término "pureza" representa las prácticas que pueden mantener los ancianos, la familia y la comunidad. El término "rostro oculto del peligro" son prácticas que necesitan negociación y reestructuración, sin embargo, ocupan un espacio valioso para la preservación cultural. Consideraciones finales: Las prácticas culturales de atención a la salud y la enfermedad de los ancianos fueron moldeadas tanto por la cultura de origen ucraniano, como por la cultura de su actual pertenencia, la brasileña

RESUMO Objetivo: Interpretar as práticas culturais de cuidados à saúde e doença dos idosos descendentes de ucranianos.

O tema cultural está alicerçado na Teoria da Diversidade e Universalidade do Cuidado Cultural. Resultados: Emergiram quatro domínios e taxonomias culturais e um tema cultural. No tema cultural, o termo "pureza" representa as práticas que podem ser mantidas pelos idosos, família e comunidade. O termo "face oculta de perigo" são práticas que necessitam de negociações e reestruturações, porém, ocupam um espaço valoroso de preservação cultural. Considerações finais: As práticas culturais de cuidados à saúde e doença dos idosos foram moldadas tanto pela cultura de origem ucraniana, como também pela cultura de seu pertencimento atual, a brasileira.

Intergenerational transmission between quilombola mothers and daughters: reproductive autonomy and intervening factors / Transmisión intergeracional entre madres e hijas quilombolas: autonomía reproductiva y factores intervinientes / Transmissão intergeracional entre mães e filhas quilombolas: autonomia reprodutiva e fatores intervenientes

ABSTRACT Objective: to analyze reproductive autonomy in quilombola women and the intervening factors of intergenerational transmission between mothers and daughters. Method: a cross-sectional and analytical study developed with 160 women, mothers and daughters from quilombola communities in the municipality of Vitória da Conquista, Bahia. The National Health Survey questionnaire was used to verify sociodemographic characteristics and intervening factors; and the Reproductive Autonomy Scale was also employed. The Chi-square, Mann-Whitney and Wilcoxon tests were applied. The data were analyzed by means of simple and multiple linear regression. Results: the group of mothers presented higher frequency of women that are married or live with a partner (66.2%), who worked (51.2%) and who had higher incomes (358.00 ± 663.00). The daughters presented more years of study (10.50 ± 5.00). Reproductive autonomy and intergenerational transmission between mothers and daughters mainly occur in the Absence of coercion (ICC=0.70; p=0368) and Communication (ICC=0.69; p=0694) domains. The mother's age (ß-adjusted=-0.027; p=0.039) and the daughter's skin color/race (ß-adjusted=0.423; p=0.049) were intervening factors in intergenerational transmission related to Decision-making, associated with the mother's age and with the daughter's self-recognition as black-skinned. Conclusion: the daughters do not follow the same choice as their mothers, which can be understood due to greater accessibility to reproductive planning services and increased schooling levels. Intergenerational transmission among quilombolas presents important specificities for reproductive decisions and enables a better understanding of the information and qualification of the health professionals' assistance in the care provided to these women.

RESUMEN Objetivo: analizar la autonomía reproductiva en mujeres quilombolas y los factores intergeneracionales de transmisión entre madres e hijas. Método: estudio transversal y analítico desarrollado con 160 mujeres, madres e hijas de comunidades quilombolas de la ciudad de Vitória da Conquista, Bahía. Se utilizó el cuestionario de la Pesquisa Nacional de Saúde para verificar las características sociodemográficas y los factores intervinientes; y la Escala de Autonomía Reproductiva. Se aplicaron las pruebas de Chi-cuadrado, Mann-Whitney y Wilcoxon. Los datos se analizaron mediante regresión lineal simple y múltiple. Resultados: el grupo de madres presentó mayor frecuencia de mujeres casadas o con pareja (66,2%), que trabajaban (51,2%) y tenían mayores ingresos (358,00 ± 663,00). Las hijas presentaron más años de escolaridad (10,50 ± 5,00). La autonomía reproductiva y la transmisión intergeneracional entre madres e hijas ocurren especialmente en los dominios Ausencia de Coerción (CCI=0,70; p=0368) y Comunicación (CCI=0,69; p=0694). La edad de la madre (ß-ajustada=-0.027; p=0.039) y la etnia / raza de la hija (ß-ajustada=0.423; p=0.049) fueron factores que intervinieron en la transmisión intergeneracional relacionada con la Toma de Decisiones, asociada a una menor edad de la madre y al autorreconocimiento de la hija como negra. Conclusión: las hijas no siguen la misma opción que sus madres, lo que puede explicarse debido a la mayor accesibilidad a los servicios de planificación reproductiva y mayores niveles de educación. La transmisión intergeneracional entre quilombolas presenta importantes especificidades para las decisiones reproductivas y permite una mejor comprensión de la información y la calificación de la asistencia de los profesionales de la salud en el cuidado de estas mujeres.

RESUMO Objetivo: analisar a autonomia reprodutiva em mulheres quilombolas e os fatores intervenientes da transmissão intergeracional entre mães e filhas. Método: estudo transversal e analítico desenvolvido com 160 mulheres, mães e filhas de comunidades quilombolas do município de Vitória da Conquista, Bahia. Utilizou-se o questionário da Pesquisa Nacional de Saúde para verificar características sociodemográficas e fatores intervenientes; e a Escala de Autonomia Reprodutiva. Foram aplicados testes qui-quadrado, Mann-Whitney e Wilcoxon. Os dados foram analisados através de regressão linear simples e múltipla. Resultados: o grupo das mães apresentou maior frequência de mulheres casadas ou com companheiro (66,2%), que trabalhavam (51,2%) e maior renda (358,00 ± 663,00). As filhas apresentaram mais anos de estudo (10,50 ± 5,00). A autonomia reprodutiva e a transmissão intergeracional entre mães e filhas ocorrem, sobretudo, nos domínios Ausência de Coerção (CCI=0,70; p=0368) e Comunicação (CCI=0,69; p=0694). A idade da mãe (ß-ajustado=-0,027; p=0,039) e cor/raça da filha (ß-ajustado=0,423; p=0,049) foram fatores intervenientes na transmissão intergeracional relacionada a Tomada de Decisão, associados a menor idade da mãe e ao autorreconhecimento da filha como negra. Conclusão: as filhas não acompanham a mesma escolha das mães, o que pode ser entendido por uma maior acessibilidade aos serviços de planejamento reprodutivo e aumento nos níveis de escolaridade. A transmissão intergeracional entre quilombolas apresenta especificidades importantes para decisões reprodutivas e possibilita melhor entendimento das informações e qualificação da assistência dos profissionais de saúde no cuidado com essas mulheres.

O cheiro do racismo na cultura político-afetiva higienista brasileira: o saneamento do corpo-dejeto / Smells like racism in brazil's hygienist political-affective culture: the process of dejection of the trash-body / El olor del racismo en la cultura político-afectiva higienista brasileña: el saneamiento de lo cuerpo-desecho

Resumo: Este artigo assume o estigma racial como objeto de análise, mais precisamente a construção simbólica que pessoas negras são sujas, fedidas e/ou imundas - uma discussão que tem sido ignorada no debate racial brasileiro. Nesse sentido, o objetivo consiste em discutir a produção racista dos corpos, dos sentidos e das emoções. Argumenta-se que, em uma sociedade racista, os processos de socialização e subjetivação são estruturados sob uma cultura político-afetiva higienista que reforça a dominação racial branca enquanto subalterniza, assujeita e higieniza-embranquece subjetivamente as pessoas negras. Assim, urge uma maior articulação entre as Psi e as Ciências Sociais para a compreensão da interface saúde, cidadania e construção sociopolítica da etnicidade.

Abstract: This article takes the racial stigma as an object of analysis, more precisely the symbolic construction that black people are dirty, stinky and/or filthy - a discussion that has been ignored in the Brazilian racial debate. In this sense, the aim is to discuss the racist production of bodies, senses and emotions. It is argued that, in a racist society, the processes of socialization and subjectivation are structured under a hygienist political-affective culture that reinforces white racial domination while subjectively subordinating, subjecting and sanitizing-whitening black people. Thus, there is an urgent need for greater articulation between the Psy field and Social Sciences to understand the interface between health, citizenship and the sociopolitical construction of ethnicity.

Resumen: Este artículo asume el estigma racial como el objeto de análisis, más precisamente la construcción simbólica de que las personas negras son sucias, apestosas y/o inmundas- una discusión que ha sido ignorada en el debate racial brasileño. En este sentido, el objetivo es discutir la producción racista de los cuerpos, sentidos y emociones. Argumentamos que, en una sociedad racista, los procesos de socialización y subjetivación se estructuran bajo una cultura político-afectiva higienista que refuerza la dominación racial blanca al mismo tiempo que subordina, somete y sanea-blanquea subjetivamente a las personas negras. Por lo tanto, existe una necesidad urgente de una mayor articulación entre las Psi y las Ciencias Sociales para comprender la interfaz entre salud, ciudadanía y la construcción sociopolítica de la etnicidad.

Prevalence of diabetes mellitus according to associated factors in rural traditional populations in Goiás, Brazil: a cross-sectional study / Prevalência de diabetes mellitus autorreferido e fatores associados em população rural e tradicional de Goiás: estudo transversal

ABSTRACT: Objective: To identify the prevalence of and factors associated with diabetes mellitus in rural traditional communities. Methods: Cross-sectional study carried out in 115 rural communities distributed in 45 municipalities in the state of Goiás, including: 13 river communities, 51 quilombolas and 63 agrarian reform settlements. Probabilistic sampling was performed, and participants were selected at random. The outcome variable was self-reported diabetes mellitus, while exposure variables were sociodemographic, lifestyle, health conditions and access to health services. Multiple regression was used to determine the association between study variables. Results: Among the 2,537 participants, the overall prevalence of diabetes was 9.8%, with 13.5% in river dwellers, 10.0% in quilombolas and 9.3% in settlers. Factors associated with diabetes were negative self-perception of health, being a former smoker, high blood pressure, hypercholesterolemia, and living in a river community. Conclusion: The results reinforce the need to strengthen strategies for the prevention and control of diabetes and its complications in rural populations, especially among river dwellers.

@#Introduction: Nursing education and training is known to be an inherently stressful experience and poses challenging demands for students. The aim of this study is to evaluate the stress levels among nursing students from different ethnic groups in Malaysia. Methods: This cross-sectional study recruited the January to February 2020 nursing students from a private university in Malaysia with a self-administered questionnaire. Participants’ level of stress was measured using the Perceived Stress Scale (PSS) developed by Sheu and colleague in 2002. Data collected were analyzed with, One-way ANOVA and Spearman analysis to determine the significant factors associated with stress. Results: Two hundred nursing students across years one to three enrolled. The mean monthly household (family) income was MYR4686.25 ± 4660.38. Stress was significantly associated with ethnicity and monthly household (family) income (p< 0.05). Bonferroni post-hoc test demonstrated that the mean stress level of Malay students is statistically significant compared to Chinese and Indian students (p< 0.001). The PSS determined the nursing students’ stress level to be moderate. Conclusion: The association of stress levels with ethnicity, and monthly household (family) income suggested the need for suitable cultural and sufficient financial support for nursing students to reduce their stress levels.

Observation on the composition and distribution of human papillomavirus infection and its aging changes in female genital tract of Zhuang and Han nationality in Guangxi / 中华老年医学杂志

Objective:To study the composition and distribution of human papillomavirus(HPV)in female genital tract of Zhuang and Han nationality in Guangxi.Methods:The composition and distribution of cervical human papillomavirus(HPV)infection in Han and Zhuang women visiting Department of Gynecology and Obstetrics of the First Affiliated Hospital of Guangxi Medical University from August 2012 to October 2020 were retrospectively analyzed to provide the basic data for prevention and treatment of HPV infection.A total of 20 736 cases were divided into Han nationality group(n=16 390 cases)and Zhuang nationality group(n=4 346 cases). Polymerase chain reaction(PCR)was used to detect HPV type 21 and analyze the epidemiological characteristics of cervical HPV in women of different ethnic groups in this area.Results:In the 20, 736 cases, the proportion of positive HPV was 27.0%(5 591/20, 736). Among them, positive HPV accounted for 27.7%(4 536)in the Han group, and 24.3%(1 055)in Zhuang group, which were statistically significant( χ2=20.17, P<0.01). Peak age of infection in Zhuang women was more than 65 years.The most common HPV genotypes in both ethnics groups in Guangxi were HPV 16, 52, 58, 18, and 53.In women with positive HPV, the constituent ratio of HPV16 and HPV 52 rose with age ageing, while constituent ratio of HPV 6 and 11 presented the opposite trend. Conclusions:The HPV and HR(high-risk)-HPV positive composition ratio is lower in Zhuang women than in Han women in Guangxi.Among Han and Zhuang females, HPV 16, 52, 58, 18 and 53 have the highest positive composition ratio.HPV genotyping shows an age-increasing change.

Modelo de envejecimiento con éxito: la relevancia de los síntomas depresivos en las personas mayores chilenas / Model of successful ageing: the relevance of depressive symptoms among older Chileans people

Resumen: Antecedentes: Las diversas maneras de envejecer en Chile, especialmente determinadas por la identidad étnica indígena, son escasamente abordadas, siendo necesario dar cuenta de las variables personales, psicosociales y de salud que promueven el Envejecimiento con Éxito (EE). Objetivos: Explorar un modelo teórico explicativo del EE en una muestra de personas mayores indígenas y no indígenas, considerando diversas variables personales, psicosociales y de salud relacionas con EE. Asimismo, se busca contrastar el posible efecto de la pertenencia étnica - ser o no ser indígenaen este modelo. Método: Estudio cuantitativo y transversal que contó con la participación de 232 personas mayores del Pueblo Aymara y 545 no indígenas que viven en el extremo norte de Chile. Se utilizaron instrumentos previamente validados en población equivalente para medir envejecimiento con éxito, religiosidad y espiritualidad, apoyo social comunitario, problemas de salud, actividades de la vida diaria y depresión. Para comprobar el ajuste del modelo teórico a los datos se utilizó un análisis de ecuaciones estructurales. De manera específica, se estimó un modelo estructural multigrupo para personas indígenas y personas no indígenas. Resultados: Los resultados indican que existe invarianza en función de la etnia para el constructo EE. Tal como se muestra en el modelo hipotetizado y posteriormente contrastado, el EE se relaciona directamente con depresión y espiritualidad. La asociación de integración comunitaria, dependencia física en las actividades de la vida diaria y el apoyo social se percibido se produce a través de su asociación con depresión y espiritualidad. Conclusiones: Este estudio apoya la hipótesis de que el EE es un proceso multidimensional, relacionado con la pertenencia étnica y que la salud mental ocupa un rol importante en su comprensión.

Abstract: Background: The diverse ways of ageing in Chile, especially determined by indigenous ethnic identity, are scarcely addressed. It is necessary to account for the personal, psychosocial and health variables that promote Successful Ageing (SA). Objective: This research explores a theoretical explanatory model of successful ageing (SA) in a sample of indigenous and non-indigenous older people, considering several personal, psychosocial and health variables related to SA. It also seeks to contrast the possible effect of ethnicity - being or not being indigenous - in this model. Method: Quantitative, cross-sectional study with the participation of 232 elderly Aymara people and 545 non-indigenous people living in the extreme north of Chile. Instruments and scales previously validated in equivalent population were used to measure successful aging, religiosity and spirituality, community social support, health problems, dependence in activities of daily living and depression. Structural equation modeling (SEM) was used to estimate the adjutsment of the theoretical model to the data. Specifically, a multigroup analysis was performed to adjust the model for indignous and non-indigenous groups. Results: The results indicate that there is invariance in function of ethnicity for the SA construct. As shown in the hypothesized and subsequently contrasted model, SA is directly related to depression and spirituality. On the other hand, community integration, physical dependence and perceived social support relates indirectly with SA, through the association with depression and spirituality. Conclusions: This study support the hypothesis that SA is a multidimensional process, determining by ethnicity and that mental health plays an important role.

Fatores relacionados à capacidade física de membros superiores e inferiores de idosos quilombolas / Factors related to the physical capacity of upper and lower limbs in quilombola elderly people

Resumo Objetivou-se avaliar os fatores relacionados à capacidade física de membros superiores e inferiores em idosos quilombolas. Estudo transversal e analítico, realizado com a população idosa residente na comunidade quilombola Caiana dos Crioulos, Alagoa Grande, estado da Paraíba. As variáveis dependentes investigadas foram capacidade física de membros superiores e de membros inferiores. Foi realizada correlação de Spearman e regressão linear simples e múltipla (IC95%; p<0,05). O estudo foi realizado em conformidade com a Resolução 466/2012 do Conselho Nacional de Saúde do Ministério da Saúde. Foram avaliados 43 idosos. A análise bivariada mostrou correlação positiva entre FPM e PAF; entre FPM e CMB e correlação inversa entre a SPPB e a idade. O modelo múltiplo para FPM mostrou correlação significativa com a idade, CMB e anos de estudo (R2=0,374; p<0,05). Para a SPPB mostrou correlação significativa com a idade (R2=0,2524; p=0,001). Assim, a reserva de massa muscular, anos de estudo e idade foram fatores relacionados à capacidade física entre os idosos quilombolas. A observância criteriosa destes aspectos e a intervenção precoce podem preservar a capacidade física e garantir a inclusão produtiva e a autonomia econômica tão pleiteada na agenda social das comunidades.

Abstract This paper aimed to assess the factors related to the physical capacity of upper and lower limbs in quilombola older adults. This is a cross-sectional, analytic study performed with elderly residents in the quilombola community Caiana dos Crioulos, Alagoa Grande, Paraíba, Brazil. The researched dependent variables were the physical capacity of upper and lower limbs. It was performed the Spearman correlation and multiple and linear simple regression (95% CI; p<0.05). This work was performed per Resolution 466/2012 from National Health Council. Forty-three older adults were assessed. The bivariate analyses showed a positive correlation between handgrip strength (HGS) and physical activity (PA), between HGS and arm muscle circumference (AMC), and an inverse correlation between Short Physical Performance Battery (SPPB) and age. The multiple-model for HGS was significantly correlated with age, AMC, and years of study (R2=0.374; p<0.05). Regarding the SPPB, it showed a significant correlation with age (R2=0.2524; p=0.001). Therefore, the muscle mass reserve, years of study, and age were factors related to the physical capacity among quilombola older adults. The strict compliance of these aspects and the early intervention can preserve physical capacity and ensure the productive inclusion and economic autonomy so much sought in the communities' social agenda.

Disparidades por etnia en la mortalidad por minas antipersona: un análisis a nivel país / Ethnic disparities in mortality from landmines: A country-level analysis

Resumen Introducción. El Registro Colombiano de Víctimas de Lesiones por Minas Antipersona fue lanzado por el gobierno de Colombia con el objetivo de recolectar información sobre los casos de heridos por minas antipersona en el país. El propósito de este estudio fue investigar las disparidades de mortalidad entre las víctimas de lesiones por minas antipersona, en función de la pertenencia a una minoría étnica. Métodos. Se hizo una regresión logística multivariable para examinar la asociación entre minorías étnicas y mortalidad en las personas heridas por minas antipersona. Resultados. Se registraron 10.306 casos de lesiones por minas antipersona, de los cuales 430 eran personas pertenecientes a grupos étnicos minoritarios (indígenas o afrodescendientes). De estos, 85 (19,7 %) eran mujeres, 156 (36,2 %) eran menores de 18 años y 427 (99,3%) vivían en áreas rurales. La mortalidad fue significativamente mayor (29,3 %) en comparación con la población mestiza (18,5 %; p < 0,001). Después de ajustar por sexo, edad, soldado en servicio activo, área rural y volumen de casos por departamento, encontramos que las minorías étnicas tenían mayores probabilidades de morir (OR = 2,03; IC95% 1,61- 2,56; p < 0,001). Discusión. Encontramos una asociación entre la pertenencia a una minoría étnica y una mayor probabilidad de mortalidad con lesiones causadas por minas antipersona. Estos hallazgos deberían alentar a los legisladores de las zonas rurales de Colombia a trabajar más diligentemente, para reducir las consecuencias nocivas de las lesiones causadas por estos artefactos en los grupos étnicos minoritarios.

Abstract Introduction. The Colombian Victims of Antipersonnel Mines Injuries registry was launched by the Colombian government with the objective of collecting information on all the cases of injuries caused by antipersonnel landmines in the country. The purpose of this study was to investigate the mortality disparities among ethnic minority victims of antipersonnel landmine injuries. Methods. A multivariate logistic regression was performed to examine the association between ethnic minorities and mortality in people injured by antipersonnel mines. Results. A total of 10,306 cases of injuries caused by antipersonnel landmines were registered, of which 430 were people belonging to minority ethnic groups (indigenous or Afro-descendant). Of these, 85 (19.7%) were women and 156 (36.2%) were under 18 years of age. Almost all people from ethnic minority groups were located in rural areas (n=427, 99.3%) and mortality was significantly higher compared to the mestizo population (mestizo 18.5% vs. individuals from ethnic minorities 29, 3%; p <0.001). After adjusting for sex, age group, active duty soldier status, rural area, and case volume for each geographic department, we found that ethnic minorities were more likely to die after suffering an antipersonnel mine injury (OR = 2.03; 95% CI 1.61-2.56; p <0.001). Discussion. We found an association between belonging to an ethnic minority and a higher probability of mortality with injuries caused by antipersonnel mines. These findings should encourage legislators in rural Colombia to work more diligently to reduce the harmful consequences of injuries caused by these devices in ethnic minority groups.
