"Fala-M@no-COVID-19": technological development of a health navigation program for men during the pandemic.

Objective: to develop a care-educational technology similar to a health navigation program for men during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Methods: a methodological and qualitative study of a care-educational technology of health navigation program, structured by Program Development Cycle, with 16 patient navigators and 10 professional navigators. It used reflective thematic content analysis and an adaptation model for data processing.

Bacterial multispecies interaction mechanisms dictate biogeographic arrangement between the oral commensals and .

As the microbiome era matures, the need for mechanistic interaction data between species is crucial to understand how stable microbiomes are preserved, especially in healthy conditions where the microbiota could help resist opportunistic or exogenous pathogens. Here we reveal multiple mechanisms of interaction between two commensals that dictate their biogeographic relationship to each other in previously described structures in human supragingival plaque. Using a novel variation for chemical detection, we observed metabolite exchange between individual bacterial cells in real time validating the ability of these organisms to carry out metabolic crossfeeding at distal and temporal scales observed .

Mechanistic Assessment of Metabolic Interaction between Single Oral Commensal Cells by Scanning Electrochemical Microscopy.

The human oral microbiome heavily influences the status of oral and systemic diseases through different microbial compositions and complex signaling between microbes. Recent evidence suggests that investigation of interactions between oral microbes can be utilized to understand how stable communities are maintained and how they may preserve health. Herein, we investigate two highly abundant species in the human supragingival plaque, and , to elucidate their real-time chemical communication in commensal harmony.

An econometric analysis for the determinants of flight speed in the air transport of passengers.

Accurately determining an aircraft's flight speed is crucial for optimizing airline performance, as it directly impacts factors such as fuel consumption and emissions. Flying at speeds higher than what is recommended by the manufacturer can result in increased fuel burn. However, flying at slower speeds may lead to longer flight times and competitive disadvantages for airlines as passengers typically prefer shorter travel times.

Applying fuzzy qualitative comparative analysis to identify typical symptoms of COVID-19 infection in a primary care unit, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.

This study aims to identify a set of symptoms that could be predictive of SARS-CoV-2 cases in the triage of Primary Care services with the contribution of Qualitative Comparative Analysis (QCA) using Fuzzy Sets (fsQCA). A cross-sectional study was carried out in a Primary Health Care Unit/FIOCRUZ from 09/17/2020 to 05/05/2021. The study population was suspect cases that performed diagnostic tests for COVID-19.

SARS-CoV-2 in Brazil and Psychosocial Repercussions on Men's Health: Health Literacy Is Important.

This study aimed at analyzing the psychosocial repercussions of the Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) pandemic on the health of men living in Brazil. For this, we carried out a socio-historical and qualitative study, with the participation of 200 men who answered an online questionnaire. The data collected were processed in the NVIVO12® software, structured by the Collective Subject Discourse method, and analyzed from the epidemic disease theoretical framework proposed by Charles Rosenberg.

Sociohistorical Analysis of Normative Standards of Masculinity in the Pandemic of COVID-19: Impacts on Men's Health/Mental Health.

Objective: This study aims to analyze sociohistorically how the normative patterns of hegemonic masculinity produced impacts on men's health/mental health in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Methods: A qualitative study from a socio-historical perspective was conducted with 50 men based on an online survey. A semistructured form was applied.

Psychological Distress in Men during the COVID-19 Pandemic in Brazil: The Role of the Sociodemographic Variables, Uncertainty, and Social Support.

Objective: To analyze the relationships between sociodemographic variables, intolerance to uncertainty (INT), social support, and psychological distress (i.e., indicators of Common Mental Disorders (CMDs) and perceived stress (PS)) in Brazilian men during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Stigma experienced by men diagnosed with COVID-19.

Objective: to analyze the stigma characteristics perceived in the experience of men who had COVID-19.

Method: this qualitative study involved men living in Brazil, diagnosed with COVID-19, who answered semi-structured questions in an online form. Data were subjected to thematic and lexical analysis, interpreted in the light of the stigma theory.

Mechanisms underlying interactions between two abundant oral commensal bacteria.

Complex polymicrobial biofilm communities are abundant in nature particularly in the human oral cavity where their composition and fitness can affect health. While the study of these communities during disease is essential and prevalent, little is known about interactions within the healthy plaque community. Here we describe interactions between two of the most abundant species in this healthy microbiome, Haemophilus parainfluenzae and Streptococcus mitis.

Implementation of the National Policy for Comprehensive Attention to Men's Health: challenges experienced by nurses.

Objective: To analyze the challenges experienced by nurses in the implementation of the National Policy for Comprehensive Attention to Men's Health.

Method: Descriptive, qualitative study, carried out with nurses working in Primary Health Care in a city in the state of Bahia, Brazil. Individual interviews were carried out and then analyzed using the Discourse of the Collective Subject, in the light of the guidelines of the National Policy for Comprehensive Attention to Men's Health.

["Affected by the touch": Meanings attributed to prostate cancer prevention practices among men].

The aim of this study was to identify and analyze meanings attributed to practices related to prostate cancer prevention among men. A qualitative methodology was employed, with semi-structured interviews being conducted with 21 men in the city of Vitoria da Conquista, Bahia, between July and August of 2017. Data analysis was based on a dialectical hermeneutic approach.

Inspiratory Muscle Training with Isokinetic Device to Help Ventilatory Weaning in a Patient with Guillain-Barré Syndrome by Zika Virus.

Zika is an arbovirus infection mainly transmitted by the mosquito . In 2016, the burden of Zika epidemic in Brazil was significant. Patients affected by Zika virus can develop Guillain-Barré syndrome, evolving to muscle respiratory failure requiring mechanical ventilation.
