Analysis of patterns of violence against women in Brazil
Analyze patterns of association between diagnoses related to domestic violence in hospital admissions and identify clinical-demographic profiles using unsupervised machine learning. Data from the SUS Hospital Information System between 2008 and 2023 were used, covering 90,798 hospitalizations of women aged 20 to 59 years with ICD-10 codes related to violence. Frameworks for data preparation were applied, as well as algorithms for identifying asso…

Development and validation of an epidemiological risk score for neonatal death in a middle-income country
Introduction: Despite global reductions in neonatal mortality, significant disparities remain between regions and population groups. Identifying newborns at higher risk at birth may help direct preventive actions and enhance health planning. Objective: To develop an epidemiological risk score for neonatal death based on individual and contextual factors. Methods: A cohort study was conducted using data from over 5.6 million live births in 645 mun…
Socio-demographic, health and drug use characteristics among people with different frequency patterns of cannabis use in Brazil
Data on cannabis use patterns and health outcome indicators for Brazil are limited. We undertook a cross-sectional internet-based survey assessing socio-demographics, cannabis use frequency, other drug use, quality-of-life (QOL), affective states (i.e. anxiety and depression), and cannabis use disorder among adult respondents in Brazil. A multinomial logistic regression was conducted using cannabis frequency status as the dependent variable. A to…
Temporal Trend, Causes, and Timing of Neonatal Mortality of Moderate and Late Preterm Infants in São Paulo State, Brazil
Moderate and late preterm newborns comprise around 85% of live births 0/7 -36 6/7 weeks gestation without congenital anomalies from 2004-2015 in the population of São Paulo State, Brazil. A database was built by deterministic linkage of birth and death certificates. Causes of death were classified by ICD-10 codes. Among 7,317,611 live births in the period, there were 545,606 infants with 32 0/7 -36 6/7 weeks gestation without congenital anomalies…
Clusters of preterm live births and respiratory distress syndrome-associated neonatal deaths
Asymmetric cluster distribution of preterm live births and RDS-associated neonatal deaths may be helpful to indicate areas for perinatal healthcare improvement
Operational Challenges in the Use of Structured Secondary Data for Health Research
Background: In Brazil, secondary data for epidemiology are largely available. However, they are insufficiently prepared for use in research, even when it comes to structured data since they were often designed for other purposes. To date, few publications focus on the process of preparing secondary data. The present findings can help in orienting future research projects that are based on secondary data. Objective: Describe the steps in the proce…
Personality Impairment in Children and Adolescents with ADHD
Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder in children and adolescents manifests itself in a heterogeneous manner as regards personality aspects. This study aimed to evaluate, by using the Ego Impairment Index, the personality functioning characteristics of children and adolescents between 9 and 15 years old (to be completed), diagnosed with the disorder (clinical group) and compare them with a non-clinical group. The groups included 42 participant…

Assessment of Alcohol and Tobacco Use Disorders Among Religious Users of Ayahuasca
The aims of this study were to assess the impact of ceremonial use of ayahuasca -a psychedelic brew containing N,N-dimethyltryptamine (DMT) and β-carboline -and attendance at União do Vegetal (UDV) meetings on substance abuse; here we report the findings related to alcohol and tobacco use disorder. A total of 1,947 members of UDV 18+ years old were evaluated in terms of years of membership and ceremonial attendance during the previous 12 months. …
Hope matters to the glycemic control of adolescents and young adults with type 1 diabetes
This study investigated the association of hope and its factors with depression and glycemic control in adolescents and young adults with type 1 diabetes. A total of 113 patients were invited to participate. Significant negative correlations were found between hope and HbA1c and also between hope and depression. Hope showed a significant association with HbA1c and depression in the stepwise regression model. Among the hope factors, "inner positiv…
Avaliação da equivalência semântica da versão em português (Brasil) da Online Cognition Scale
Este estudo teve por objetivo realizar a avaliação da equivalência semântica da Online Cognition Scale para o português (Brasil). O processo consistiu em cinco etapas: tradução; retrotradução; revisão técnica e avaliação da equivalência semântica por profissionais capacitados; avaliação do instrumento quanto à compreensão verbal por uma amostra de profissionais (n = 10) e estudantes (n = 37). O instrumento foi traduzido e adaptado para o portuguê…
