As cities grow, they face challenges and the need to implement infrastructure to meet this expansion. Infrastructure consists of physical components and sectorized services that form essential networks for a country´s operation. Given the scale of this sector, organizing city information supported by integrated technological solutions becomes necessary, with systematization and ordering of urban processes serving as the basis for decision-making. This study aims to develop an operational mode...

The main objective of this study is to investigate the impact of transitions between Health Financing Systems (SFS) from predominantly out-of-pocket (OOP) to predominantly government (GOV) or social health insurance (SHI) systems on health outcomes, both intermediate and health outcomes, in Latin American and Caribbean countries, in the period from 2000 to 2017. The effect of these transitions between SFS was estimated using a Differences in Differences model. The main results indicate that t...

Snakebite envenoming is considered a public health problem in the world and a neglected tropical disease by the World Health Organization due to the impacts on the population and health systems. This present study aimed to obtain hyperimmune serum anti-crotalic produced in sheep and to evaluate the humoral immune response, throughout the immunization schedule. In addition, the efficacy of this serotherapy in neutralizing the lethality activity of Crotalus spp., in mice was analyzed. The...

Introduction: Coronary artery disease (CAD), which represents an important and increasing cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide, is associated to the presence of cardiovascular risk factors (CVRF), and its control suffers the influence of beliefs and attitudes of individuals. General objective: Evaluate the CVRF, beliefs and attitudes of individuals in relation to CAD. Specific objectives: Describe the CVRF and its degree of control and beliefs and attitudes of these individuals in ...

Aging is a process, in which physiological changes occur called senescence, and changes caused by diseases called senility. Given the exponential increase in the number of elderly in the population and the number of asylums in Brazil, this work is interested to know what the situation of abandonment in old age in our country. The question that guided this research is: What is the production of knowledge about the abandonment in old age in databases SciELO, and LILACS UNATI? The goal is t...

Sickle cell disease directly interferes with the experience and reproductive health of women. It does not contraindicate pregnancy, however, because of its potential for severity, gestation in women with this diagnosis is considered to be at high risk. It is emphasized that pregnancy is a very desired event where it creates expectations regarding maternity, yet for women with sickle cell disease it is another risk factor, which may leave them insecure and fearful about the future of gest...

This research aims to explore the materiality of the palm tree Attalea funifera Martius, commonly known as piaçava or piaçaba, as a living fiber of the Jatimane quilombo, located in the Southern Lowlands of Bahia, Brazil, and its innovative developments. Based on artistic experiences and experiences that cross the fields of design and art, we seek to expand the affordances of this subject. We present a historical approach to the materiality of piaçava, since the creation of the quilombo, cont...

Among the artificial lift methods for oil extraction, Sucker Rod Pumping is one of the most widely used worldwide. In this system, a volume of fluid is raised to the surface through an alternating motion maintained by an induction motor associated with a me- chanical structure. Downhole conditions pose significant challenges in beam pumping systems, representing a concern for oilfield professionals. Although effective, especially for shallow wells (less than 300 meters), this pumping sys...

The improvement of Photonic Integrated Circuits to make them more flexible, reconfigurable and compact has been the norm for telecommunications systems. Against this backdrop, attention has turned to Multimode Interference devices due to the advantages presented by their properties and functionalities. This dissertation project proposes using Machine Learning techniques for the inverse design of Multimode Interference devices, as a power divider in the wavelength range of 1.25 ~ 1.7µm integra...

RADIOLOGICAL ASPECTS AND ETIOLOGY OF PNEUMONIA ACQUIRED IN COMMUNITY: A PROSPECTIVE STUDY. Introduction: pneumonia acquired in community (PAC) continues to be one of the main causes of death and a common hospital admission for children under 5 years of age worldwide. Objective: to evaluate radiological findings in children with CAP and bacterial infection or exclusively viral. Methodology: prospective cross-sectional study carried out in Pediatric Emergency at the Federal University of ...

The socio-environmental crisis experienced today, such as global warming, requires changes in the educational system that envision socio-political actions in their curricula. Integrated CTSA/HFC approaches that use QSCs as a teaching strategy to promote socio-political actions have been used, even on a small scale, in order to educate more socio-environmentally responsible citizens. Therefore, only the conceptual content of science and technology is not enough, and it is also necessary to con...

Estudos recentes mostram um importante prejuízo da função motora de crianças com diagnóstico de microcefalia relacionado à infecção pelo vírus materno Zika (ZIKV) no período gestacional. As crianças do presente estudo apresentam quadro clínico sugestivo de infecção congênita e critérios epidemiológicos que apontam uma associação temporal entre a epidemia do ZIKV no país e o aumento do súbito de microcefalia nos meses seguintes. Objetivo: Avaliar o desenvolvimento motor grosso durante os 2 pri...

Reflecting on Permanent Education today requires rethinking conservative teaching approaches, as it does not propose a content-focused educational process but rather a practical and experiential learning necessary for both employees and users of the healthcare system. In this context, the relevance of discussing permanent education models and teaching-learning processes is highlighted, as these programs are expected to address various competencies, fostering a critical-reflective environment ...

The Chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) is a major cause of chronic liver disease worldwide. Patients with HCV have several comorbidities, among them Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). It is not yet established whether the nutritional and metabolic characteristics of patients with HCV may increase the risk for NAFLD.Objective: The aim of this study was to identify changes in Resting Energy Expenditure (REE) of HCV patients. Methods: Cross- sectional study including patients from the ...

INTRODUCTION: Cutaneous Leishmaniasis is a stigmatizing disease, considered a serious public health problem. It has three classic clinical forms, including the cutaneous and mucosal forms. The first mainly affects the upper and lower limbs, with ulcerated lesions, which may be multiple or single. The second affects the upper respiratory tract, with destructive lesions, which may affect the voice, swallowing and breathing of patients. OBJECTIVE: To characterize the voice and verify the vocal r...

In this work, a financial analysis was conducted to evaluate the feasibility of a project, using the indicators of Net Present Value (NPV), Internal Rate of Return (IRR), Weighted Average Cost of Capital (WACC), and Payback. The WACC, calculated at 9.60%, served as a reference for the evaluation, and the IRR was analyzed across three scenarios, consistently exceeding the WACC, even under adverse conditions. The positive NPV in all scenarios indicated that the project not only recovers th...
