RESUMO

The West African Health Organization (WAHO) supported an innovative regional initiative that contributes to building effective decision making, community and researcher partnerships to strengthen equitable health systems and influence local programmes and policies. Four projects were funded in Nigeria, Sierra Leone, Burkina Faso and Senegal, supported by a Regional Advisory Committee of experts and local Steering Committees. Based on a framework drawn from WAHO objectives, we reviewed documents, conducted 56 project stakeholder interviews and undertook thematic analysis. A diverse range of stakeholders perceived that the projects were in line with national priorities, were well managed and were equitably implemented. The projects generated evidence that could increase access to and improve quality maternal health services. Sustainable partnerships were formed and stakeholder and research team capacity were strengthened. Our study provides insight into project implementation in West Africa, bearing in mind context-specific issues. (Afr J Reprod Health 2022; 26[5]: 81-89).

RESUMO

En América Latina y el Caribe, entre 70% y 80% de las nuevas infecciones por el VIH se presentan en los grupos de población clave o en sus clientes o parejas sexuales. La información estratégica de calidad sobre los servicios ofrecidos a estos grupos de población, es esencial para la toma de decisiones programáticas que pongan a los países en el camino hacia la eliminación del VIH para el 2030. Desde el 2019, varios países de la región han fortalecido el monitoreo de los servicios preventivos de VIH ofrecidos a los grupos de población clave. Las mejoras han incluido el fortalecimiento de los sistemas de información, la capacitación para la recogida y el análisis de los datos, y el fomento de la toma de decisiones basada en evidencia para mejorar la disponibilidad y cobertura de los servicios de VIH e ITS. A través de la construcción de las cascadas de prevención y atención al VIH, ocho países han conseguido medir el impacto de los servicios de VIH no solo a partir de que las personas de población clave con VIH mantengan una carga viral indetectable, sino también de que las personas de población clave VIH-negativas se mantengan libres de infección. Además se ha progresado en medir la contribución que las asociaciones de la sociedad civil llevan a cabo en la respuesta contra el VIH y las ITS. Este aspecto es fundamental para garantizar su sostenibilidad y el financiamiento por fuentes nacionales. En esta publicación se resumen los principales logros alcanzados en América Latina y el Caribe en favor de la mejora de la información estratégica relacionada con los servicios de VIH para los grupos de población clave. En él se ponen de relieve las experiencias de la region, que pueden servir de ejemplo a otras regiones, a medida que nos adentramos en los últimos diez años para alcanzar los objetivos de eliminación del VIH/sida.

RESUMO

In Latin America and the Caribbean, 70-80% of new HIV infections occur among key populations and their clients or sexual partners. High-quality strategic information on the monitoring of HIV prevention services offered to key populations is essential to drive programmatic decisions that put countries on the path to eliminating HIV by 2030. Since 2019, several countries in the region have strengthened the monitoring of HIV preventive services offered to key populations. Improvements include the strengthening of information systems, capacity building for data collection and analysis, and fostering evidence-based decision making to improve the availability and coverage of HIV and STI services. By building the HIV prevention and care cascades, 8 countries in the region have measured the impact of HIV services. This impact is determined not only from the number of people from the key population living with HIV maintaining an undetectable viral load but also from the number of people from the HIV-negative key population kept HIV-free through the provision of essential services. Moreover, countries have progressed in measuring civil society's contribution in the response against HIV and STIs. This aspect is essential to guarantee their sustainability and financing from national sources. The document shown here is a guide for Latin American and Caribbean countries to improve strategic information related to HIV services for key populations through strengthened monitoring using a combination prevention approach.

RESUMO

Este trabajo presenta un estudio de pórticos de hormigón armado sometidos a terremotos para determinar las regiones de estos pórticos que llegan al rango ineslástico. Se estudio la respuesta no-lineal de pórticos de diez niveles diseñados para distintas cargas laterales y sometidos a cinco terremotos diferentes. Se encontró que en los pórticos regulares que llegaron al rango inelástico se forman articulaciones plásticas hasta en los niveles altos de estructura debido a la influencia del segundo modo de vibración en la respuesta de los pórticos (AU)

RESUMO

Los ascensores son componentes no estructurales de edificios que muchas veces cumplen funciones de vital importancia como es el caso de aquellos localizadores en hospitales. Así como el edificio puede ser afectado por un movimiento sísmico fuerte, tambien los ascensores pueden sufrir daños. Durante el terremoto de 1971 en San Fernando, California, cientos de ascensores fueron severamente dañados en el área de Los Angeles. Esto hizo que por primera vez se incorporaran en los códigos para diseño e instalación de asensores medidas para tener en cuenta el efecto de los terremotos. Si bien los daños reportados durante terremotos subsiguientes en California disminuyeron, todavía se observaron numerosas fallas. La falla más común fue el descarrilamiento del contrapeso en los ascensores eléctricos, seguida por la deformación permanente de los rieles. Este proyecto de investigación pretende explicar el comportamiento de los contrapesos durante un terremoto fuerte mediante una simulación numérica. Se desarrollo un modelo de un edificio multipiso en donde se incluye un modelo de contrapeso y sus dos rieles. El edificio se sometio a la aceleración en la base registrada durante un terremoto histórico para obtener la respuesta en el tiempo. Los resultados confirman que, a no ser que se implementen medidas especiales, el sistema riel - contrapeso va a fallar debido al mismo. El modelo desarrollado y metodología usada para calcular la respuesta pueden ser útiles para estudiar cómo reforzar los ascensores para que resistan mejor los movimientos sísmicos ÿ(AU)

RESUMO

El Puente Warth fue diseñado y construido a pricipios de los años setenta, con códigos sísmicos ahora obsoletos. Por lo tanto, era necesario una revisión de su comportamiento actual para la toma de futuras decisiones sobre su mantenimiento o rehabilitación. En este artículo se muestra el análisis realizado para definir la vulnerabilidad sísmica de esta estructura, considerando un método simplificado de evaluación del daño máximo y la aplicación de la simulación por Monte Carlo para definir la respuesta probable del puente. En este análisis, se tomaron en cuenta las incertidumbres inherentes a las propiedades estructurales y a la excitación sísmica externa, mediante dos escenarios sísmicos. Los resultados obtenidos muestran que bajo algunas condiciones de carga deberían ser consideradas posibles reparaciones moderadas(AU)

RESUMO

In this project, Multidisciplinary Center of Earthquake Engineering Research (MCEER) researchers conducted vibration tests at a site in West Seneca, New York to determine its suitability for attracting and supporting a ChipFab facility. ChiFab, a short name for a semiconducto chip fabrication facility, is high-tech manufactuing facility where the electronic chips for items ranging from computers to cellular phones to automobiles are manufactured. The industrial park site (North America Park) is located near a railroad, a major expressway and an active mining operation. The level of micro-vibrations of ground motion is critical for this type of facility. Several locations were instrumented within the industrial park. Three direction acceleration components were measured at each location, during the period between November 1 and December 1, 1998. These acceleration data were subsequently converted into RMS velocity (one-thrid-octave band) through specially derived analytical relationships. It was found that the proposed ChipFab site in the northen section of the industrial park was suitable for the manufactuting facility. The measurement system used to conduct this testing was developed specifically for this project. This report describes the measurement system detail, including its sensory system, data acquisition and recording, sensor installation and distribution of the measurement locations. The procedure to obtain measurements, data evaluation, and results and analyses related to the West Seneca site are also described in the report. In addition to the encouraging results at the specific site (North America Center, West Seneca, NY), the ground vibration measuring procedure developed can potentially be used as an industrial standard for delicate manufacturing site evaluation. The report also introduces the theorical development for the relationship between frequency spectra and RMS values, which can be adopted for a wide range of applications on interpretations of the data obtained from up-to-date data acquisition systems

RESUMO

The study described in this report on focuses on fundamental issues related to the design and use of supplemental damping devices in building structures. The principle objective is to develop a generic/practical analysis and design methodoly for structures that considers structural velocities and equivalent viscous damping of the devices. These two issues are explored in depth. Tools to transform the spectral velocity to an actual relative structural velocity are provided, and simple design procedure which incorporates power equivalent linear damping based on actual structural velocities is presented. The effectiveness of the design methodology is demonstrated with a retrofit design example using a supplemental load balancing tendom configuration

RESUMO

This report assesses the perfomance of existing steel bridges in the past earthquakes. There is an identification of the areas in existing steel bridge structures that are seismically vulnerable. Among the examined components there are: steel columns, steel tower bents, steel superstructures (particularly steel trusses), girder cross-frames, and steel connections. Vulnerable areas and details are identified, and recommendations for improved designs and retrofit techniques are made. Research needs are identified where existing knowledge is lacking. There is an examination of the three most common lateral force existing systems: MRF's: moment resisting frames; CBF's: concentrically braced frames and EBF's; eccentrically braced frames. It indicates that any of them can provide adequate seismic structural ductility. There is also an analysis of X-braces and X-braces and V-braced bridges piers as a way of getting potential structural ductility. It has a lis of illustrations, which include configurations, pier designs, axial loads and analytical models of connections, among others
