International scientific cooperation in public health: A performance measuremen...

In this article, we aim to propose indicators to evaluate the performance of international scientific cooperation in public health, based on the operation experience in Brazil's "Syphilis No!" Project. This is an action research project, based upon Kaplan and Norton's Balanced Scorecard Method, developed in five stages: (i) Reorganization of the indicators, (ii) validation of the new indicators, (iii) construct...

Digital dual test syphilis/HIV detection based on Fourier Descriptors of Cyclic...

Background: Effective and timely detection is vital for mitigating the severe impacts of Sexually Transmitted Infections (STI), including syphilis and HIV. Cyclic Voltammetry (CV) sensors have shown promise as diagnostic tools for these STI, offering a pathway towards cost-effective solutions in primary health care settings. Objective: This study aims to pioneer the use of Fourier Descriptors (FDs) in analyzing...

AVASUS’ contributions to promoting lifelong learning in health: toward achievin...

The Virtual Learning Environment of the Brazilian Health System (AVASUS) was developed by the Laboratory for Technological Innovation in Health (LAIS) and the Secretariat of Distance Education (SEDIS) at the Federal University of Rio Grande do Norte (UFRN) in partnership with Brazil’s Ministry of Health (MoH). AVASUS provides open educational resources in the health field and has emerged as the third largest pl...

As regulamentações de proteção de dados pessoais no Brasil e em Portugal: o tra...

Objetivo: discutir se replicar o Projeto "Sífilis Não", naquilo que se refere ao tratamento de vastas quantidades de dados pessoais relativos à saúde sem o consentimento dos titulares, seria possível em solo português. Metodologia: análise da legislação referente à proteção de dados pessoais brasileira, portuguesa e europeia, tendo o Projeto "Sífilis Não" como o caso em estudo. Resultados: o tratamento de dados...

The relevancy of massive health education in the Brazilian prison system: the c...

Introduction: Brazil has one of the largest prison populations globally, with over 682,000 imprisoned people. Prison health is a public health emergency as it presents increasingly aggravating disease rates, mainly sexually transmitted infections (STI). And this problem already affects both developed and developing nations. Therefore, when thinking about intervention strategies to improve this scenario in Brazi...

Educommunication as a strategy to face syphilis: an analysis of the open educat...

Introduction: Syphilis is a problem for the Brazilian Public Health. Therefore, the Brazilian Ministry of Health has been promoting actions to fight this disease; among them, the “No Syphilis Project” stands out, and develops open educational resources (OER), among several activities. Objective: To analyze the open educational resources available in the SUS (the Brazilian Unified Health System) Virtual Learning...

Biomecânica e otimização topológica com H-adaptatividade em implantes dentários...

In recent years there has been a significant growth in technologies that modify implant surfaces, reducing healing time and allowing their successful use in areas with low bone density. One of the most widely used techniques is plasma nitration, applied with excellent results in titanium and its alloys, with greater frequency in the manufacture of hip, ankle and shoulder implants. However, its use in dental imp...

Método de Otimização Topológica em Estruturas Tridimensionais

The topology optimization problem characterize and determine the optimum distribution of material into the domain. In other words, after the definition of the boundary conditions in a pre-established domain, the problem is how to distribute the material to solve the minimization problem. The objective of this work is to propose a competitive formulation for optimum structural topologies determination in 3D prob...
