Com a ocorrência da pandemia mundial da COVID-19 foi observado no Brasil o aparente conflito entre economia e saúde, gerando problemas na administração pública para uma tomada de decisão eficaz. O presente artigo propõe uma estrutura de gestão estratégica de primeira resposta a problemas complexos e inesperados no setor público para o reconhecimento do problema e resposta eficiente, baseados no modelo estratégico em desastres e na estrutura da complexidade institucional. Como metodologia utilizou-se a combinação sistemática da lógica abdutiva por meio da análise de notícias de jornal, analisando como os conflitos eram explicitados por meio da Classificação Hierárquica Descendente (CHD), Análise Fatorial por Correspondência (AFC) e análise do conteúdo da notícia. Como resultados observa-se: 1. A existência de 5 divisões de discurso, Pandemia, Legislativo, Pluralidade Social, Resposta Federal e Conflito; 2. A evidenciação de todas as fases iniciais (complexidade institucional, incerteza técnico-científica, falha na liderança e pluralismo social); 3. A origem do conflito não se encontrava entre economia e saúde, mas sim em um conflito político entre o governo federal e os governadores; 4. Saúde e economia foram somente ferramentas neste embate.
Dipeptidyl peptidase 4 (DPP4) regulates various physiological pathways and has a pivotal role in glucose homeostasis. The objective of this study was to verify the association of a haplotype constituted by two single nucleotide polymorphisms (rs2268894 and rs6741949) in the DPP4 gene with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and fasting glycemia-related variables in a sample of Brazilian older adults, taking serum levels and enzymatic activity of DPP4 into account. Clinical, biochemical, and anthropometric characteristics as well as DPP4 serum levels and enzymatic activity were determined in 800 elderly (X60 years old) individuals. Assessment of polymorphic sites was performed by real-time PCR whereas haplotypes were inferred from genotypic frequencies. Statistical analyses compared measures and proportions according to T2DM diagnosis and DPP4 haplotypic groups. The most common haplotype consisted of the T-rs2268894/G-rs6741949 string, which was 20% more frequent among non-diabetics. Considering non-diabetic patients alone, carriers of the T/G haplotype had significantly lower levels of blood glucose, insulin, HOMA-IR index, and DPP4 activity. Among diabetic patients, the T/G haplotype was associated with lower DPP4 levels whereas glycemic scores were not affected by allelic variants. Our results suggested that the genetic architecture of DPP4 affects the glycemic profile and DPP4 serum levels and activity among elderly individuals according to the presence or absence of T2DM, with a possible implication of the T/G haplotype to the risk of T2DM onset.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
