Conhecimentos e condutas dos cirurgiões-dentistas do estado do Rio Grande do Norte sobre denúncias e notificações de maus-tratos infantis / Knowledge and conduct of dentists of State of Rio Grande do Norte regarding complaints and notifications of child abuse

Os maus-tratos infantis são considerados um problema de saúde a nível mundial. Diante dessa realidade, destaca-se a relevante atuação dos profissionais de saúde na identificação, diagnóstico, notificação e, consequentemente, na redução no número de casos. O Cirurgião-Dentista apresenta-se em uma posição privilegiada no que diz respeito à identificação de casos de violência, visto que a maioria das lesões de ordem física a crianças e adolescentes se apresenta em região de cabeça e pescoço. Dessa forma, objetiva-se identificar as experiências e conduta dos cirurgiões-dentistas do Rio Grande do Norte sobre maus-tratos infantis. Foi realizado um estudo exploratório de caráter quantitativo mediante aplicação de um formulário eletrônico, com questões semiestruturadas, enviado aos dentistas com inscrições ativas no Conselho Regional de Odontologia do Rio Grande do Norte. Foi obtido um total de 100 questionários respondidos. Para análise dos dados, utilizou-se a estatística descritiva e testes de associação. Os resultados revelaram que 14% dos profissionais relataram ter visto caso suspeito de abuso físico, porém nenhum destes realizou notificação no último semestre. Apesar das médias das respostas terem sido superiores a 6 quanto à disposição para detecção, capacidade de diagnóstico e de identificação dos maus-tratos, esses resultados não corroboram com o número de profissionais que considera necessário maior qualificação em diagnóstico ou que desconhecem qualquer meio de notificação. A capacitação técnico-científica para a identificação e diagnóstico diferencial é importante e a responsabilidade pela notificação de casos suspeitos às autoridades é imprescindível para o exercício da profissão em consonância com os valores de cidadania e justiça

Child abuse is considered a global health problem. Given this reality, the relevant role of health professionals in identifying, diagnosing, reporting and, consequently, reducing the number of cases stands out. The dentist is in a privileged position with regard to identifying cases of violence, given that the majority of physical injuries to children and adolescents occur in the head and neck region. Thus, the objective is to identify the experiences and conduct of dentists in Rio Grande do Norte regarding child abuse. An exploratory quantitative study was carried out using an electronic form, with semi-structured questions, sent to dentists with active registrations at the Rio Grande do Norte Regional Dentistry Council. A total of 100 completed questionnaires were obtained. For data analysis, descriptive statistics and association tests were used. The results revealed that 14% of professionals reported having seen a suspected case of physical abuse, but none of them reported it in the last semester. Although the response averages were higher than 6 in terms of willingness to detect, diagnose and identify abuse, these results do not corroborate the number of professionals who consider it necessary to have greater qualifications in diagnosis or who are unaware of any means of reporting. Technical-scientific training for identification and differential diagnosis is important and the responsibility for reporting suspected cases to the authorities is essential for exercising the profession in line with the values of citizenship and justice

Social capital as a moderator of the relationship between violent community environment and psychological distress.

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the modifying effect of social capital on the relationship between living in violent communities and the presence of psychological distress in adolescents and youth in Mexico. METHOD: The analysis of the Social Cohesion Survey for the Prevention of Violence and Crime (ECOPRED, by its acronym in Spanish) was conducted. The analytic sample consisted of 39,639 participants aged 12 to 29 years. Community violence and social capital were measured at the census tract level using the average answers of a household's head sample. These environmental variables were independent of the experiences of the participants. Social capital variables included structural (social ties, recreational participation, collaborative participation, and social cohesion), and cognitive (trust in neighbors) dimensions. Multilevel structural equation models were used. RESULTS: Recreational participation, collaborative participation, and social cohesion modified the relationship between community environments and psychological distress. In females who lived in places with less recreational participation or less social cohesion, the higher the social disorder, the higher the psychological distress. A similar relationship between vandalism and psychological distress was identified, but only in males who lived in places with less collaborative participation, and in females with less social cohesion. CONCLUSIONS: Our results suggest that dimensions of the structural social capital (organization and interest in the community and its members) were the ones that had the buffering effect of the exposure to disordered community environments on psychological distress.

Abstract Introduction: Violence against the elderly is a growing phenomenon, causing damage to health, with different outcomes and consequences to the victims. The possibility of elderly women suffering it in the family context surpasses that of men, with gender being a considerable risk factor. Objective: To analyze the understanding of violence against the elderly according to elderly women. Method: Descriptive research with a qualitative approach developed with 22 elderly women from a community in the state of Paraíba, Brazil, chosen for convenience. The data collection was based on semi-structured interviews, processed by the Iramuteq software, with subsequent Content Analysis. Results: Five classes of violence against the elderly were evidenced: cycle of violence; support network for the elderly victims of violence; experience of violent situations; financial violence; and symbolism of violence in society, which denote an understanding of violence involving the different types. They are based on the factors of family experience, culture, and others, placing the health professional as a fundamental element for care and support. Gender influenced the perspective on physical and psychological violence, as well as the relevance given to health teams for the identification of occurrences and the prevention of possible damage. Conclusion: The various types of violence against the elderly have been recognized, including individual, community, and social factors in the violent cycle. In addition, they associated aging with greater susceptibility to suffering violence, regardless of the typology. It highlights the potential of the health service in assisting the elderly victim of violence, elucidating cases, and acting early to interrupt the cycles perpetrated, requiring the constant need for professional updating to deal with detected situations.

[Impact of gender violence on girls and adolescents]. / Impacto de la violencia de género en las niñas y las adolescentes.

Gender is an important determinant of health. Its relationship with inequality and violence allows us to consider being a woman as a risk factor for health. Girls and teenager girls are not exempt from this circumstance, which conditions their lives from before birth and can determine their health status throughout life. It can vary according to social contexts, as various factors intersect with gender, adding risk and vulnerability to being a woman. Gender-based violence is often identified as a problem for adult women; however, the experience of discriminatory gender-based violence is constructed throughout women's lives, producing serious individual and social consequences from childhood. Accepting this violence as a «private or domestic matter¼ often prevents seeing the true dimension of the problem, its consequences, and the need to address it as a global issue.

Mother-infant bonding: The role of postpartum depression, violence, and bonding established with one's own mother during childhood.

Mother-infant bonding is influenced by several risk and protective factors, and the literature has investigated the relationships between these factors independently. This study aimed to verify the interrelationships of some of these factors and how they influence mother-infant bonding in Brazil. In this study, 361 mothers participated, and the outcome variable of mother-infant bonding was assessed using the Postpartum Bonding Questionnaire (PBQ). Multivariate regression analysis was performed using a hierarchical model with three blocks structured according to the influence exerted on mother-infant bonding. The PBQ's factor scores were estimated and used in the subsequent analyses to decrease measurement error. The variable "violence experienced by mothers" was statistically significant for explaining the second block model but not significant for the third block. Network analysis was performed after multiple regression, showing that the violence experienced by mothers does not directly influence mother-infant bonding but rather is mediated by postpartum depression. This explains why violence is not significant in the hierarchical multiple regression when maternal depression is added to the model. This study's strengths lie in its utilization of PBQ factor scores and network analysis, enabling the estimation of conditional relationships among variables. This approach provides deeper insights into factors affecting mother-infant bonding.

Varios factores de riesgo y de protección ejercen influencia sobre la unión afectiva madre­infante; la literatura disponible ha investigado las relaciones entre estos factores de una manera independiente. Este estudio se propuso verificar las interrelaciones de algunos de estos factores y cómo ellos influyen en la unión afectiva madre­infante. Se consultó un total de 361 madres y el variable resultado de afectividad madre­infante se evaluó por medio del Cuestionario de Afectividad de Postparto (PBQ). Se llevaron a cabo análisis de regresión multivariados usando un modelo jerárquico con tres estructuras de bloques de acuerdo con la influencia ejercida sobre la unión afectiva madre­infante. Se estimaron y usaron los puntajes de factores del PBQ en los análisis subsecuentes para disminuir el error en la medida. La variable "violencia experimentada por las madres" fue estadísticamente significativa para explicar el segundo modelo de bloque, pero no significativa para el tercer bloque. Se llevó a cabo un análisis de interrelaciones después de la regresión múltiple, demostrando que la violencia experimentada por las madres no influye directamente la afectividad madre­infante, sino que la misma es mediada por la depresión posterior al parto. Esto explica por qué la violencia no es significativa en la jerárquica regresión múltiple cuando la depresión materna se le agrega al modelo. Entre los puntos fuertes de este estudio se incluye el uso de los puntajes de factores del PBQ y el análisis de interrelaciones, lo cual permitió que se estimaran las relaciones condicionales existente dentro del grupo de variables, aportando una mayor comprensión de algunos factores que interfieren en la unión afectiva madre­infante.

Violence Exposure and Disability in Colombian Female Survivors of Intimate Partner Violence: the Mediating Role of Depressive Symptoms.

BACKGROUND: Violence is an important public health problem and one of the main causes of deaths worldwide. The mental health consequences of surviving intimate partner violence (IPV) include depression, anxiety and post-traumatic stress disorder. Previous studies have identified that there is a relationship between depression and level of disability in female survivors of IPV. Estimating the direct, indirect or total effect of an exposure on an outcome makes it possible to identify mediating effects between a group of variables. Detecting mediation effects is useful for identifying casual pathways that generate a final outcome and provides a rationale for designing interventions to target the mediator, which in turn positively affects the outcome. The objective was to identify the mediating role of depressive symptoms on the relationship between IPV and disability. METHODS: This was a cross-sectional study of 94 women over the age of 18 who were survivors of IPV by men. They were recruited from two public hospitals in Cali and Tuluá in southwest Colombia. An analysis of casual relationships was performed using structural equation modelling that was made up of: four exogenous observed variables (age, current relationship status [in a relationship or single], level of schooling, and history of an impairment), intermediate endogenous variables (violence and depressive symptoms), and the main endogenous variable (disability). The analyses were carried out in Stata14.2. RESULTS: The direct effect of IPV severity on the level of disability was not statistically significant (ß=0.09; P=0.63). However, the indirect effect of IPV severity on disability mediated by depressive symptoms was (ß=0.39; P<0.01). The total effect of IPV severity on the level of disability was even greater (ß=0.48; P=0.01). CONCLUSIONS: This study found a complete mediating role of depressive symptoms on the relationship between the severity of IPV and the level of disability for the female participants in this study. The results of this research contribute to defining strategies to prevent and address intimate partner violence, depressive symptoms and disability in this population.

A qualitative investigation of gender-based violence prevention and response using digital technologies in low resource settings and refugee populations.

Background: Governmental and non-governmental organizations across medical, legal, and psychosocial sectors providing care to survivors of gender-based violence (GBV) and their families rapidly digitalized services during the COVID-19 pandemic. GBV prevention/response services working with women and children who are forcibly displaced and/or living in low-and-middle income countries (LMIC) were no exception to the rapid digitalization trend. Literature is lacking a critical synthesis of best practices and lessons learned since digitalization replaced major operations involved in GBV prevention/response.Objective: This research qualitatively investigated how GBV service providers, located in a range of socio-political settings, navigated the process of digitalizing GBV prevention/response during the COVID-19 crisis.Method: Semi-structured key informant interviews (KII) with GBV service providers in varied sectors were implemented virtually (2020-2021) in Brazil, Guatemala, Iraq, and Italy (regarding forcibly displaced women/girls for the latter). Participants were recruited using purposive and snowball sampling. Interview guides covered a range of topics: perceived changes in violence and service provision, experiences with virtual services, system coordination, and challenges. The KIIs were conducted in Portuguese, Spanish, Arabic, and Italian. Interviews were audio-recorded, transcribed, and translated into English. The research team conducted thematic analysis within and between countries using a structured codebook of data driven and theory driven codes.Results: Major themes concerned the: (1) spectrum of services that were digitalized during the COVID-19 crisis; (2) gender digital divide as a barrier to equitable, safe, and effective service digitalization; (3) digital violence as an unintended consequence of increased digitalization across social/public services.Conclusion: Digitalization is a balancing act with respect to (1) the variety of remotely-delivered services that are possible and (2) the access/safety considerations related to the gender digital divide and digital violence.

Digitalization occurs when products and services are converted to digital forms; violence prevention/response services working with women and children who are forcibly displaced and/or living in low-and-middle income countries were no exception to the rapid trend of digitalization during the COVID-19 crisis.Using key informant interviews with service providers working in violence prevention and response sectors in Brazil, Guatemala, Iraq, and in Italy regarding forcibly displaced women/girls, we investigated the rapid digitalization of gender-based violence prevention/response during the COVID-19 crisis.The effectiveness, safety, and equitability of digitalized violence prevention/response services depends on how well they are balanced vis-a-vis the gender digital divide and risk of digital GBV.

A principal violência perpetrada foi a lesão corporal dolosa principalmente contra mulheres de 18 a 24 anos, que trabalhavam em casa ou estavam desempregadas.Conclusão:Apesar da falta de diferenças expressivas entre os anos pré e pós-pandemia, a análise reforça a urgência de discutir os fatores subjacentes à violência contra a mulher, especialmente a violência doméstica. Destaca-se a importância de medidas preventivas e de apoio às vítimas para enfrentar esse problema social. É essencial promover políticas visando uma sociedade mais segura e igualitária para todas as mulheres (AU).

Introduction:The pandemic scenario has brought to light, and in a intesified manner, some concerning indicators regarding domestic violence against women. Thus, the question arises: did the COVID-19 pandemic make a difference in the number of domestic violence cases? Objective: To compare the occurrence of domestic violence cases against Brazilian women in the periods from 2015 to 2018 and 2019 to 2021 according to data from the state's Civil Police. Methodology: This is a documentary and descriptive study, conducted with secondary data. The information was collected through the Civil Police ombudsman on March 11, 2021, based on police reports of domestic violence against women from 2015 to 2021. Results: During the year of 2015 to 2021, a total of 26,671 police reports of violence against women were registered. From 2015 to 2018, the monthly average was 360.1 occurrences, and during the pandemic, from 2019 to 2021, the monthly average was 360.9 occurrences. There was a slight increase in the number of police reports during the COVID-19 pandemic, with a peak in 2020, which had a monthly average of 387.4 occurrences, the most intense period of the pandemic. The main violence perpetrated was intentional bodily harm, mainly against women aged 18 to 24, who were either working from home or unemployed. Conclusion: Despite the lack of significant differences between pre and post-pandemic years, the analysis reinforces the urgency of discussing the underlying factors of violence against women, especially domestic violence. The importance of preventive measures and support for victims to address this social problem is emphasized. It is essential to promote policies aimed at a more equal and safer society for all women (AU).

Developing and implementing survivor-centred approaches for college student-athletes: perspectives from athletic department, Title IX, and campus advocacy personnel.

ABSTRACTBackground: Sexual violence (SV) is a persistent issue on US college campuses, particularly among college student-athletes. Strategies to address SV are urgently needed. Yet, prior research shows that many university practices can be more harmful than helpful to SV survivors and necessitates a reimagination of how institutions support SV survivors. Survivor-centred approaches may be one way to effectively address SV for students, including student-athletes, across college campuses.Objective: This qualitative study explored campus personnel experiences with and perceptions of survivor-centred SV prevention and intervention policies and practices on college campuses and examined how these approaches serve SV survivors, including college student-athletes.Methods: As part of a larger study on campus SV and student-athletes across four institutions, semi-structured interviews with 22 representatives from athletic departments, campus advocacy, and Title IX were conducted. Guided by phenomenology, a thematic analysis approach was used to identify key patterns in survivor-centred SV prevention and intervention policies and practices. Participant demographic data were analysed descriptively.Results: Most participants identified as white (72.2%), heterosexual (63.6%), women (68.2%), and were an average of 41.8 years old (SD = 10.2). The majority were in positions associated with athletic departments (63.6%), and they had been in their role for an average of 5.6 years (SD = 6.6). Through thematic analysis, three main themes were identified: (1) education & accessibility; (2) interpersonal relationships & individual well-being; and (3) campus and societal norms.Conclusions: The findings from this study highlight clear policy and practice recommendations for survivor-centred SV prevention and intervention on college campuses, such as accessible, applicable SV training and the implementation of survivor-centred approaches. Further research is needed to understand existing survivor-centred practices and the facilitators and barriers to their implementation across institutions and within athletic departments.

Sexual violence is a persistent issue on US college campuses, particularly among college student-athletes. Strategies to address SV are urgently needed. Survivor-centred approaches may offer solutions to better serve survivors of sexual violence, including student-athletes.Through interviews with athletic department, Title IX, and campus advocacy personnel, three themes were identified related to developing and implementing survivor-centred approaches: (1) education & accessibility; (2) interpersonal relationships & individual well-being; and (3) campus and societal norms.Further research is needed to understand existing survivor-centred practices and the facilitators and barriers to their implementation across institutions, particularly for college student-athletes.

Guardians of health under fire: Understanding and combating violence against doctors.

Violence against physicians is not a newly emerged but an increasingly serious problem. Various studies have reported a prevalence of up to 90%. If not prevented, it not only causes physical and mental harm to physicians who are dedicated to serving humanity but also affects the entire healthcare system and, consequently, the whole community with its direct and indirect effects. Some interventions have a positive outcome when effectively managed. However, for these interventions to be permanent and effective, they need to be multidisciplinary, legally backed and adopted as public policy. In this article, the prevalence of violence against physicians in the literature, its causes, practices worldwide, and suggestions for solving this problem are compiled.

Ciber violencia contra la pareja en universitarios de España y Latinoamérica / Cyber violence against the couple in university students in Spain and Latin America

El objetivo de la investigación fue estudiar la presencia de ciber violencia contra la pareja en estudiantes universitarios de España y Latinoamérica, así como como analizar su relación con los mitos románticos y el sexismo ambivalente. La investigación tiene un diseño transversal. La muestra estaba formada por 2.798 estudiantes de siete países hispanohablantes: España, El Salvador, Nicaragua, Colombia, Chile, Argentina y México. Los resultados muestran pocas diferencias de medias entre hombres y mujeres; sin embargo, las diferencias entre países son considerables, sobre todo en la perpetración de agresiones directas y control. Las distintas formas de ciber violencia contra la pareja tienden a correlacionar, en una dirección positiva, con las actitudes sexistas y las creencias distorsionadas sobre el amor romántico. En conclusión, los programas de prevención deberían tener en cuenta las nuevas manifestaciones de la violencia que están apareciendo en los espacios virtuales.(AU)

The objective of the research was to study the presence of cyber violenceagainst partners in university students in Spain and Latin America, as well as toanalyze its relationship with romantic myths and ambivalent sexism. The researchhas a cross-sectional design. The sample was made up of 2,798 students fromseven Spanish-speaking countries: Spain, El Salvador, Nicaragua, Colombia, Chile,Argentina, and Mexico. The results show few differences in means between menand women; However, the differences between countries are considerable,especially in the perpetration of direct attacks and control. The different forms ofcyber violence against a partner tend to correlate, in a positive direction, with sexistattitudes and distorted beliefs about romantic love. In conclusion, preventionprograms should take into account the new manifestations of violence that areappearing in virtual spaces.(AU)

Borderline Personality Disorder and Intimate Partner Violence: A Systematic Review / Trastorno Límite de Personalidad y Violencia en la Pareja: una Revisión Sistemática

Borderline personality (BPD) features and intimate partner violence (IPV) have been seen associated, focusing the research specially into perpetrators. The achievement of this systematic review is to analyze this relation in both victims and perpetrators, using 17 scientific articles published between 2017 and 2021 from different data bases. Most studies were focused on perpetrators, in which both men and women were equally represented as perpetrators. Instead, studies about victims were focused on women. Throughout this review, different factors observed in people with BPD traits who are victims or perpetrators of IPV are mentioned, finding particularities in each profile. These findings allow increase knowledge about the relationship between BPD and IPV, promoting a greater understanding that impacts positively on clinical intervention in this population.(AU)

Los rasgos límites de personalidad (TLP) se han visto asociados a violencia en la pareja, con investigaciones centradas especialmente en quienes la ejercen. El objetivo de esta revisión sistemática es analizar esta relación tanto en víctimas como en perpetradores, utilizando 17 artículos científicos publicados entre 2017 y 2021 en distintas bases de datos. Los estudios analizados se centraron mayoritariamente en perpetradores, encontrándose tanto hombres como mujeres igualmente representadas. En cambio, los estudios sobre víctimas atendían por lo general a mujeres. A lo largo de esta revisión, se mencionan distintos factores observados en personas que presentan rasgos TLP y ejercen o son víctimas de violencia de pareja, encontrando particularidades en cada perfil. Este trabajo permite incrementar el conocimiento sobre la relación existente entre TLP y violencia de pareja, fomentando una mayor comprensión que repercuta positivamente en la intervención clínica de esta población.(AU)

Cuidado na Atenção Primária à Saúde às mulheres em situação de violência: estudo bibliométrico na Web of Science / Care in Primary Health Care for women in situation of violence: bibliometric study in the Web of Science / Cuidado en la Atención Primaria de Salud a mujeres em situación de violencia: estudio bibliométrico en la Web of Science

O estudo apresentado neste artigo objetivou descrever a produção científica entre 2012 e 2022 sobre o cuidado médico na Atenção Primária à Saúde a mulheres em situação de violência. Trata-se de um estudo bibliométrico e descritivo de abordagem quantitativa, a partir de publicações indexadas na base de dados Web of Science mediante o uso dos descritores "Violence Against Women", "Medical Care", "Primary Health Care". Diante do que foi analisado, é perceptível uma falta de priorização de estratégias de cuidados pelos serviços de saúde, apesar de uma produção científica consideravelmente importante, bem como uma falta de atuação de alguns nichos dos profissionais de saúde. O desenho metodológico permitiu um mapeamento do perfil dos estudos voltados para a temática, assim como a necessidade de estudos sobre intervenções multidisciplinares, em especial o cuidado médico, na Atenção Primária à Saúde, a mulheres em situação de violência.

The study presented in this article aimed to describe the scientific production between 2012 and 2022 on medical care in Primary Health Care for women in situations of violence. This is a bibliometric and descriptive study of quantitative approach, from publications indexed in the Web of Science database through the use of the follow descriptors: "Violence Against Women", "Medical Care", "Primary Health Care". In the light of what has been analyzed, it is visible a lack of prioritisation of care strategies by the health services, despite a considerably important scientific production, as well as a lack of action by certain niches of health professionals. The methodological design made it possible to map out the profile of studies on the subject, as well as the need for studies on multidisciplinary interventions, especially the medical care by health services in Primary Health Care for women in situations of violence.

[Health consequences of violence against women by the couple]. / Consecuencias para la salud de la violencia contra la mujer por la pareja.

Intimate partner violence against women (IPV) has devastating effects on the healthcare and well-being of women and their children. Physical, psychological, and social consequences, a worse perception of their own health, and loss of quality of life are well-documented, while aftereffects persist in time even after the end of abuse. Psychological consequences of abuse last longer and are more serious. IPV also affects sons and daughters, disabled people, family, and the attacker himself. Many health problems, both physical and mental, that lead women to go to healthcare services in search of help have an origin in the violence they experience. Treatment of the symptoms without awareness of its relation to such violence favours medicalization, iatrogenesis, and chronification. Psychological violence poses a threat that is invisible, subtle, cumulative, and difficult to detect; it is, however, the most destructive.

There's Something about Uvalde: American Patriarchy and the Slaughter of Innocents.

After every school shooting in the United States both a wish and a fear arise: Will this be the one? Will this be the tipping point for change in a nation so deeply divided over the meaning of "the right to bear arms?" Sandy Hook, Connecticut? No. Parkland, Florida? No. So, why might the killing of 19 children and 2 teachers in Uvalde, Texas, prove different? The American epidemic of mass school shootings betrays a country's willingness to let its children disappear, to sacrifice them on the altar of an archetypally violent ethos. While the internal experiences of alienation, resentment and contempt are often at play in the individuals who carry out such violence, the author suggests that the uniquely American glorification of "the lone wolf", the "rugged individual" and the "misunderstood hero" fuels a supportive background for mass shooters in a nation that appears to be enamoured of ancient patriarchal attitudes as it doubles down on its valuing of weaponry. Such patriarchal attitudes, underscored by capitalism and the profits of the gun industry, are implicated in the territorial adhesion to American gun rights and in the high cost paid by the blood of innocents. Drawing on Vestergaard & Odde's (2021) concepts of socio-analysis and sociality, this paper explores the dynamic process of "mass-character" marked by "contagion, imitation, attraction and repulsion" that convolute cultural values of heritage and freedom into the perverse expression of mass violence.

Aux États­Unis, après chaque fusillade dans une école, un souhait et une crainte surgissent à la fois : est­ce que celle­ci fera une différence? Marquera­t­elle le point de basculement d'un changement dans une nation si profondément divisée sur la signification du « droit de porter des armes ¼? Sandy Hook, dans le Connecticut? Non. Santa Fe, au Texas? Non. Alors, pourquoi l'assassinat de 19 enfants et de 2 enseignants à Uvalde, au Texas, pourrait­il s'avérer différent? L'épidémie américaine de fusillades de masse dans les écoles trahit la volonté d'un pays de laisser ses enfants disparaître, de les sacrifier sur l'autel d'une philosophe archétypale de la violence. Alors que les expériences internes d'aliénation, de ressentiment et de mépris sont souvent en jeu chez les individus qui commettent de telles violences, l'auteur suggère que la glorification typiquement américaine du « loup solitaire ¼, de « l'individu robuste ¼ et du « héros incompris ¼ alimente un arrière­plan favorable aux tireurs de masse. Ceci dans une nation qui semble éprise d'anciennes attitudes patriarcales et qui persiste et signe concernant son attachement pour les armes. De telles attitudes patriarcales, soulignées par le capitalisme et les profits de l'industrie des armes à feu, sont impliquées dans l'adhésion territoriale aux droits américains sur les armes à feu et dans le coût élevé payé par le sang d'innocents. S'appuyant sur les concepts de socioanalyse et de socialité de Vestergaard et Odde (2021), cet article explore le processus dynamique du « caractère de masse ¼ marqué par « la contagion, l'imitation, l'attrait et la répulsion ¼ qui tournent les valeurs culturelles liées au patrimoine et à la liberté en une expression perverse de violence de masse.

Después de cada tiroteo en un colegio de Estados Unidos surge un deseo y un temor: ¿será éste? ¿Será éste el punto de inflexión para el cambio en una nación tan profundamente dividida sobre el significado del "derecho a portar armas"? ¿Sandy Hook, Connecticut? No. ¿Santa Fe, Texas? No. Entonces, ¿por qué la matanza de 19 niños y 2 profesores en Uvalde, Texas, podría ser diferente? La epidemia estadounidense de tiroteos masivos en escuelas revela la voluntad de un país de dejar desaparecer a sus niños, de sacrificarlos en el altar de un ethos arquetípicamente violento. Aunque las experiencias internas de alienación, resentimiento y desprecio suelen ponerse en juego en los individuos que llevan a cabo este tipo de violencia, la autora sugiere que la glorificación exclusivamente estadounidense del "lobo solitario", el "individuo rudo" y el "héroe incomprendido" alimenta un trasfondo de sostén para los autores de tiroteos masivos, en una nación que parece estar enamorada de antiguas actitudes patriarcales mientras redobla su valoración del armamento. Dichas actitudes patriarcales, acentuadas por el capitalismo y los beneficios de la industria armamentística, están implicadas en la adhesión territorial al derecho estadounidense a las armas y en el alto costo pagado por la sangre de inocentes. Basándose en los conceptos de socioanálisis y socialidad de Vestergaard y Odde (2021), este artículo explora el proceso dinámico del "carácter de masas", marcado por el "contagio, la imitación, la atracción y la repulsión", que convierte los valores culturales del patrimonio y la libertad en la expresión perversa de la violencia de masas.

Evaluación del conocimiento y manejo de la violencia basada en género desde la perspectiva de los ginecotocólogos y posgrados en la práctica clínica en Uruguay

Introducción: la violencia basada en género (VBG) es un grave problema de salud con cifras alarmantes. Las mujeres víctimas de VBG acuden a los centros de salud para ser atendidas por este y otros motivos, siendo en muchos casos el primer y único contacto de las mujeres con el sistema sanitario. El objetivo de este estudio es investigar acerca del nivel de formación, conocimientos, actuación y percepciones sobre la atención por parte de los ginecotocólogos y posgrados de Ginecotocología en casos de VBG en la práctica clínica diaria en nuestro medio. Método: se realizó un estudio descriptivo observacional de corte transversal de una muestra por conveniencia. Se encuestaron 143 profesionales, comprendiendo ginecotocólogos y posgrados de Ginecotocología en el período comprendido entre el 1 y el 30 de septiembre de 2019. Resultados: 9 de cada 10 de los profesionales refirieron no realizar o realizar pocas preguntas sobre VBG en la práctica clínica, y 80% no tiene claro sobre cuál es su rol en la detección de una víctima de VBG, siendo profesionales que asisten a un promedio de 20 a 60 mujeres semanalmente. Un tercio de los encuestados manifestaron tener menos de una hora de formación académica en VBG. Conclusión: existe escasa formación académica en esta temática. Se mostró que entender el papel del profesional en la detección de casos de VBG y la capacidad para responder apropiadamente están íntimamente relacionados con la capacidad de identificar la VBG en la práctica clínica diaria.

Introduction: Gender-based violence (GBV) is a serious health problem that accounts for alarming figures. Women victims of GBV come to health centers to be treated for this and other reasons, in many cases being this the first and only contact they have with the health system. The objective of this study is to find out the level of training, knowledge, actions, and perceptions regarding care by gynecologists and gynecology postgraduates in cases of gender-based violence seen during daily clinical practice in our setting. Method: A descriptive observational study was conducted, with a cross-sectional design and convenience sample. A total of 143 professionals were surveyed, including gynecologists and gynecology postgraduates, between September 1st and September 30th, 2019. Results: Nine out of ten professionals reported not asking or asking few questions about GBV in their clinical practice, and 80% were unclear about their role in detecting GBV victims, despite assisting an average of 20 to 60 women weekly. One-third of respondents reported having less than an hour of academic training in GBV. Conclusion: There is limited academic training in this area. The study showed that understanding the professionals' role in detecting GBV cases and their ability to respond appropriately to it are closely related to the ability to identify GBV in daily clinical practice.

Introdução: a violência baseada em gênero (VBG) é um grave problema de saúde com números alarmantes. As mulheres vítimas de VBG procuram os centros de saúde para tratamento por esse e outros motivos e, em muitos casos, esse é o primeiro e único contato que as mulheres têm com o sistema de saúde. O objetivo deste estudo é pesquisar o nível de formação, conhecimento, desempenho e percepções do atendimento por tocoginecologistas e pós-graduandos em Tocoginecologia nos casos de VBG na prática clínica diária. Métodos: foi realizado um estudo observacional descritivo de corte transversal com uma amostra de conveniência. Foram incluídos 143 profissionais, incluindo tocoginecologistas e pós-graduandos em Tocoginecologia no período entre 1º e 30 de setembro de 2019. Resultados: 9 em cada 10 profissionais relataram não fazer nenhuma ou poucas perguntas sobre a VBG na prática clínica, e 80% não tinham clareza sobre seu papel na identificação de uma vítima de VBG em sua prática, sendo profissionais que atendem uma média de 20 a 60 mulheres por semana. Um terço dos entrevistados relatou ter menos de uma hora de formação acadêmica em VBG. Conclusão: Há pouca formação acadêmica nessa área. A compreensão do papel do profissional na detecção de casos de VBG e a capacidade de responder adequadamente estão intimamente relacionadas à capacidade de identificar VBG na prática clínica diária.

Qualidade da assistência ao parto na percepção da mulher assistida na rede pública de saúde / Quality of birth care in the perception of women assisted in the public health network

Levantar e analisar a perspectiva de mulheres acerca da assistência recebida durante o parto. Método: estudo epidemiológico, observacional, de abordagem quantitativa e transversal. Os dados coletados foram compilados em tabelas e gráficos, analisados comparativamente entre si e com dados levantados na literatura científica. Resultados: as 80 participantes, com idade média de 26,6 anos, foram assistidas, integralmente, por enfermeiras obstetras. Houve predomínio das pardas (55,0%), solteiras (53,7%) e com renda familiar inferior a salários-mínimos (77,5%). Constatou-se alto nível de satisfação relacionado à assistência recebida, entretanto, o toque vaginal e a falta liberdade de se posicionar ao dar à luz foram as queixas mais frequentes, e que gerou certo grau de insatisfação. Conclusão: a amostra analisada demonstrou satisfação com os cuidados recebidos, porém os dois indicadores, com menor grau de satisfação, precisam ser repensados na prática obstétrica de modo a promover o bem-estar e a segurança da mulher.(AU)

To survey and analyze women's perspectives on the care they received during childbirth. Method: an epidemiological, observational, quantitative, cross-sectional study. The data collected was compiled into tables and graphs and analyzed in comparison with each other and with data found in scientific literature. Results: the 80 participants, with an average age of 26.6 years, were attended entirely by obstetric nurses. There was a predominance of brown women (55.0%), single women (53.7%) and women with a family income of less than one minimum wage (77.5%). There was a high level of satisfaction with the care received; however, vaginal touch and the lack of freedom to position oneself when giving birth were the most frequent complaints, which generated a certain degree of dissatisfaction. Conclusion: The sample analyzed showed satisfaction with the care received, but the two indicators with the lowest level of satisfaction need to be rethought in obstetric practice in order to promote women's well-being and safety.(AU)
