[Quality development within interdisciplinary transgender healthcare : Results and implications of a participatory research project]. / Qualitätsentwicklung in der interdisziplinären Trans-Gesundheitsversorgung : Ergebnisse und Implikationen partizipativer Versorgungsforschung.

Both internationally and nationally, the objective has been set to offer specialized, coordinated, and interdisciplinary treatment to individuals with rare clinical needs, such as trans individuals (e. g., transsexual, transgender). The Interdisciplinary Transgender Health Care Center Hamburg (ITHCCH) is the first and only center in Germany to integrate all disciplines relevant to trans healthcare (THC).The research project seeks to generate valid information to support quality development and assure high-quality treatment at the ITHCCH. This was done by (a) investigating needs and concerns of trans individuals regarding interdisciplinary THC, and (b) analyzing attitudes and interests of key stakeholders.Using a participatory approach involving a work group (representatives of trans support groups and local THC professionals), researchers developed an online survey focusing on trans individuals' needs and concerns. Data from N = 415 trans-identified participants were analyzed using quantitative and qualitative methods. In addition, a short survey was used to record key stakeholders' attitudes and interests towards the ITHCCH.Healthcare offers accessed by trans individuals as part of transition related treatment vary in focus and number. For example, take-up numbers of genital surgery differ between binary and non-binary trans individuals. Crucial aspects impacting on THC quality are structural characteristics, communication/social aspects, individuality, and professionalism/quality.To ensure successful, high-quality interdisciplinary THC, feedback from (potential) patients and stakeholders is crucial. In addition, both structural development and optimizing individuality and flexibility throughout the treatment process are key. This poses a considerable challenge to the sector of THC provision.

Entomofauna associated to the floration of Schinus Terebinthifolius Raddi (Anacardiaceae) in the Rio Grande do Sul State, Brazil / Entomofauna associada à floração de Schinus terebinthifolius Raddi (Anacardiaceae) no Estado do Rio Grande do Sul, Brasil

Considering the importance of Schinus terebinthifolius in Brazilian ecosystems, this study aimed to investigate the floral visiting insects, and verify their efficiency in pollen transport. Were collected 1.624 insects belonging to eight orders and 64 families on the flowers of one individual of S. terebinthifolius. Diptera showed higher family richness with 17, followed by Hymenoptera with 12 and Hemiptera with 11. Vespidae and Apidae, with 616 and 317 individuals respectively, were the families with the greatest number of individuals collected. 92.0% of these insects had pollen attached to their body, which confirms the importance of the individuals of these groups as pollen vector and potential pollinators.

Considerando a importância de Schinus terebinthifolius nos ecossistemas brasileiros, objetivou-se com este estudo, conhecer as espécies de insetos visitante florais da aroeira-vermelha, bem como avaliar quais destes realizam o transporte de pólen. Coletou-se nas flores de um indivíduo, 1.624 insetos pertencendo a oito ordens e 64 famílias. Diptera apresentou maior riqueza em nível de família com 17, seguida por Hymenoptera com 12 e Hemiptera com 11. Vespidae e Apidae, com 616 e 317 indivíduos respectivamente, foram as famílias com maior número de indivíduos coletados. 92.0% dos insetos destas famílias apresentaram pólen aderido ao seu exoesqueleto, o que comprova a importância dos indivíduos destes grupos como vetores de pólen e polinizadores potenciais.
