Introduction: During tha Sars-Cov-2 pandemic the focus was the COVID-19, but what about other disease? In this way, our study shows what happen to the arbovirus’s notifications. Objective: Analyze the record of notifications of arboviruses during the Sars-Cov-2 pandemic in 2020 in Brazil and compared with notifications occurred in between 2015 to 2020. Methods: Through a descriptive and epidemiological study, the data was collected in DATASUS BRASIL, INMET and CPTEC databases. Results: The drop in the notification of arbovirus cases in 2020 was proven, linked to the predominance of compulsory notifications of Dengue in the first half of 2020; this data confirms the seasonality of the occurrence of dengue. Similarly, Zika virus cases had a higher percentage of notifications in the first half of the year, contrasting with previous data. In addition to the persistence of the highest incidence of cases in the early months of 2020, Chikungunya notifications showed a constant percentage incident from 2017 to 2019, data on rainfall from 2015 to 2019 indicated low levels in the month of January compared to previous years, while in the month of 2020 a considerable increase of precipitation anomalies. Conclusion: Compared to previous years, the data show a considerable drop in arbovirus reports during the period of the Sars-Cov-2 pandemic in 2020. To establish more clearly the correlation between low arbovirus reporting and the COVID pandemic -19 it is necessary to carry out further studies.
As cirurgias videolaparoscópicas possuem várias vantagens, tais como, menor risco de desenvolverem complicações como infecções e redução do tempo de recuperação do paciente, da incidência e redução da dor pós-operatória e, por isso, ganharam grande espaço na medicina moderna 2 . Sua prática durante o curso de habilidades cirúrgicas na graduação acadêmica de medicina é de extrema relevância ao preparar os estudantes para futuras atividades realizadas em estágios, internato e residência médica. Contudo, o treino das habilidades de cirurgias videolaparoscópicas não é uma realidade em todas as
Introduction: Stüve-Wiedemann Syndrome was first described in 1971. However, this disease was considered a single entity only a few years later. The syndrome is now known to be an autosomal recessive disorder in which the patient has dysautonomia, bone dysplasia and respiratory distress and eating disorder. Objective: To report the case of a girl with Stuve-Wiedemann Syndrome. Case Description: A 7-year-old female SSG patient presented, at birth, with early neonatal sepsis, septic shock, pneumonia, respiratory acidosis, jaundice without the need for phototherapy, food intolerance, anemia, seizures, interstitial pulmonary edema, myositis and osteomyelitis of the right humerus. After 11 months of follow-up, she was referred to a maternal-fetal clinic for genetic testing to investigate the symptoms. The patient was diagnosed with Stüve-Wiedemann Syndrome. Final Considerations: This disease is considered a primary congenital bone dysplasia, characterized by skeletal and joint changes, bowing of the long bones, episodic hyperthermia, periodic respiratory infections, eating disorders and high mortality. These were facts found in the case of the child presented here. On the other hand, this disease can manifest other symptoms such as fissured tongue and episodes of hyperhidrosis, but it was not found in our patient's case. Rare diseases of genetic origin have a high negative impact on patients' quality of life. However, with the practice of physical activity, patients can have a healthy diet. Swimming practice by SSG presents itself as an extremely important activity for the physical and psychological development of this child, contributing to the improvement of her quality of life.
Com o intuito de possibilitar um aprendizado mais realístico, as instituições de ensino médico utilizam peças artificiais e orgânicas na realização das aulas práticas de cirurgia. Entretanto, estas continuam sendo somente simulações imperfeitas. Para o estudante ter um aprendizado fidedigno, englobando todo conhecimento adquirido, a participação em atendimentos ambulatoriais e hospitalares é o modo mais efetivo para ampliar e consolidar o aprendizado sobre os procedimentos cirúrgicos.
