RESUMEN
Considering that reports of violence against women must come after a victim seeks help, the subject matter transcends health-related issues. In Brazil, mobile urgency services (SAMU/SIATE) frequently provide first aid to these women and, to the best of our knowledge, no other research has specifically examined the first reaction given to these women. The present study aimed to analyze SAMU/SIATE assistance to abused women in a cross-sectional study of the assistance to assaulted women provided by SIATE and SAMU Maringá/Norte Novo between 2011 and 2020. Women between 20 and 39 years old, non-pregnant, were the main victims, and 19.52% of them have used drugs of some kind. The (ex) partner figured as the perpetrator in 17.35%, but there was no information about this variable in 73.75% of the records. The Chi-square test shows a mortality rate superior to 70% among the severely traumatized victims. This is the first research work to examine the kind of care that SAMU/SIATE offers, and it identifies several weaknesses in its "modus operandi" that may prevent the results from being applied to larger contexts. In addition, further studies on mobile urgent care services in other provinces are required in order to suggest ways to lessen this epidemic.

BACKGROUND: This study aimed to analyze maternal risk factors associated with negative outcomes of COVID-19 and association with socioeconomic indicators in Brazil. METHODS: A cross-sectional study, with data from the Influenza Epidemiological Surveillance Information System (SIVEP-Flu) of pregnant women with COVID-19 and cases of hospitalization and death. For the analysis of risk factors and outcomes, the multiple logistic regression method was used. RESULTS: Pregnant women who had some risk factor represented 47.04%. The chance of death was 2.48 times greater when there was a risk factor, 1.55 for ICU admission and 1.43 for use of ventilatory support. The percentage of cure was 79.64%, 15.46% without any negative outcome, 4.65% death and 0.26% death from other causes. Pregnant women who did not take the vaccine represented 30.08%, 16.74% took it and 53.18% were not specified. The variables HDI, illiteracy, per capita income and urbanization did not influence the cases of COVID-19. CONCLUSIONS: Factors such as age, obesity, asthma and pregnancy were responsible for the increase in hospitalizations, respiratory complications and death. Vaccination reduced the risk of negative outcomes by 50%. There were no correlations between socioeconomic indicators and the negative outcomes of COVID-19 in pregnant women.
RESUMEN
This experiment measured total bacterial numbers in the gastrointestinal regions of semi-intensively cultured tilapia, Oreochromis niloticus L. (Cichlidae). Mean bacterial numbers were higher in both anterior and posterior gut than in stomach. The percentage of isolated species and the percentage of isolates from any particular species varied significantly among gastrointestinal tract regions. Aeromonas hydrophila, Aeromonas veronii, Burkholderia cepacia, Chromobacterium violaceum, Citrobacter freundii, Escherichia coli, Flavimonas oryzihabitans and Plesiomonas shigelloides were the most frequently isolated Gram-negative bacilli. From these samples, only Plesiomonas shigelloides was present in both gastrointestinal regions, with higher number in the posterior gut (76%), when compared to anterior gut (4.8%) and stomach (0.6%). Aeromonas hydrophila (0.6%), Escherichia coli (7.4%), and Flavimonas oryzihabitans were isolated only in the stomach, and Citrobacter freundii and Burkholderia cepacia were found only in the posterior gut. Chromobacterium violaceum was the dominant bacteria isolated from stomach and anterior gut, with 90% and 55%, respectively. Unidentified organisms comprised 0 - 39.3% of the gastrointestinal microflora
A flora bacteriana de diferentes partes do trato gastrintestinal de tilápia Oreochomis niloticus L. (Cichlidae) foi determinada. O número médio de bactérias foi maior no intestino anterior e posterior quando comparado ao estômago. A porcentagem total de espécies bacterianas isoladas e a porcentagem de espécies isoladas em uma espécie particular variaram significativamente entre as regiões do trato gastrintestinal. Aeromonas hydrophila, Aeromonas veronii, Burkholderia cepacia, Chromobacterium violaceum, Citrobacter freundii, Escherichia coli, Flavimonas oryzihabitans e Plesiomonas shigelloides foram os bacilos Gram-negativos encontrados com maior freqüência. Destas espécies, somente Plesiomonas shigelloides esteve presente em cada região do trato gastrintestinal, apresentando maior número no intestino posterior (76%), quando comparado com o intestino anterior (4.8%) e o estômago (0.6%). Aeromonas hydrophila (0.6%), Escherichia coli (7.4%), e Flavimonas oryzihabitans foram isoladas somente do estômago, e Citrobacter freundii e Burkholderia cepacia foram encontradas somente no intestino posterior. Chromobacterium violaceum foi a espécie dominante isolada do estômago e do intestino anterior com 90% e 55%, respectivamente. Organismos não identificados compreendem 0 39.3% da microbiota gastrintestinal
RESUMEN
The aim of the present study was to investigate the reference ranges for haematological and biochemical values for Nile tilapia, Oreochromis niloticus (Cichlidae), cultivated in a semi-intensive system. Erythrocytes number was 6.93 ± 8.28 x 106/mm3, hemoglobin 10.52 ± 3.09g/dL of blood and hematocrit 31.85 ± 8.45%, mean corpuscular volume (MVC) 148.80 ±. 153.19µ3, mean corpuscular hemoglobin (MCH) 40.74 ± 34.19 pg and mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration (MCHC) 35.24 ± 14.92%. Total plasma protein and glucose values obtained were 3.06 ± 0.65g/dl and 60.32 ± 20.22mg/dl, respectively. A correlation matrix was established to compare de degree of association among biometric data and hematological parameters, and among each of them and biochemical values. A positive correlation was observed among weight, length, MCV and MHC, as well as between length and hematocrit. The blood glucose level was positively correlated with weight and length, whereas total protein was positively correlated with hemoglobin. The erythrocytes count was positively correlated with hemoglobin and negatively correlated with MCV and MHC. Microscopy examination of blood smears revealed the presence of erythrocytes, neutrophils, lymphocytes, and monocytes. Under the conditions employed here, no basophils or eosinophils, nor their precursors, could be found in blood smears of Nile tilapia
O objetivo do presente estudo foi investigar os valores de referências hematológicos e bioquímicos para a tilápia do Nilo, Oreochromis niloticus (Cichlidae), cultivada em sistema semi-intensivo. A contagem de eritrócitos foi 6,93 ± 8,28 x 106/mm3, hemoglobina 10,52 ± 3,09g/dL de sangue, hematócrito 31,85 ± 8,45%, volume corpuscular médio (MVC) 148,80 ±.153,19µ3, hemoglobina corpuscular média (MCH) 40,74 ± 34,19pg e concentração de hemoglobina corpuscular média 35,24 ± 14,92%. Os valores de proteína plasmática total e da glicose obtidos foram de 3,06 ± 0,65g/dl e 60,32 ± 20,22mg/dl, respectivamente. Uma matriz de correlação foi estabelecida para comparar o grau de associação entre os dados biométricos e parâmetros hematológicos, e entre estes e os valores bioquímicos. Uma correlação positiva foi observada entre peso, comprimento, MCV e MHC, bem como entre comprimento e hematócrito. O nível de glicose sanguínea foi positivamente correlacionado com o peso e o comprimento, enquanto proteína total foi positivamente correlacionada com a hemoglobina. A contagem de eritrócito foi positivamente correlacionada com a hemoglobina e negativamente correlacionada com MCH e MHC. A observação microscópica do esfregaço sangüíneo revelou a presença de eritrócitos, neutrófilos, linfócitos e monócitos. Sob as condições empregadas no estudo não foram encontrados basófilos, ensinófilos ou seus precur
