SUMMARY The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of probiotic consortium on feed intake, feeding behavior, feed efficiency, fecal score, weight gain and carcass traits in finishing Nellore heifers fed high energy diets in feedlot. Twenty-four Nellore heifers were distributed in 12 pens with two animals each, being six pens per treatment. In the control treatment (CON) the animals were fed exclusively with the base diet, which contained 35% corn silage and 65% concentrate. In the treatment with probiotic consortium technology (TCP), the animals received the base diet and a single dose of 75 mL/animal/day of Bio Ciclo Completo (Global Saúde Brasil) top-dressed in the morning feeding. There was no period of adaptation to the diet. The experiment lasted 93 days. The use of TCP did not affect (P = 0.980) the dry matter intake. The average daily gain was 12.5% greater (P = 0.025) in the animals treated with TCP (0.941 kg/day for TCP versus 0.834 kg/day for CON). The animals that received TCP improved (P = 0.021) the feed efficiency by 12.6%. The animals that received TCP tended to have a better (P = 0.094) fecal score within the first 27 days of feedlot. There were no significant effects of TCP on the feeding behavior and carcass traits. Based on the results, there is a great potential of using TCP to improve productivity in beef cattle.
Esse estudo teve o objetivo de analisar o perfil das especialidades médicas dos prescritores de psicotrópicos para idosos atendidos pelo Sistema Único de Saúde (SUS) de um município mineiro de médio porte. Trata-se de um estudo descritivo realizado a partir de dados secundários de dispensação de medicamentos registrados no Sistema Informatizado de Saúde entre janeiro e dezembro de 2017. Para esta análise foi considerada a especialidade de contratação dos médicos prescritores informada pela Secretaria Municipal de Saúde do município estudado. Foram realizadas 23.599 dispensações para 4.833 idosos, solicitadas por 194 médicos prescritores. O número de prescrições por especialidade foi maior entre médicos Clínicos Gerais – 8.463 (35,9%), Médicos da Estratégia da Saúde da Família – 6.927 (29,4%) e Psiquiatras – 5.152 (21,8%). Analisando a média de prescrições por profissional de cada especialidade, foi observado que Psiquiatras são os que mais prescrevem, seguidos pelos Mastologistas e pelos Cirurgiões Gerais, com médias de 1.717, 957 e 215 prescrições por profissional, respectivamente. A média geral é de 122 prescrições por especialista. Concluiu-se que a elevada frequência de prescrições de medicamentos psicotrópicos aos idosos por médicos que não possuem formação em psiquiatria e/ou geriatria não é infração legal ou ética, no entanto, considerando a complexidade do cuidado ao idoso e as particularidades desses medicamentos, desde a escolha da farmacoterapia até o momento da desprescrição, faz-se necessária a reflexão a respeito dos desafios vindouros, sobretudo no cenário de rápido processo de envelhecimento populacional brasileiro e da escassez de médicos geriatras.
O presente trabalho tem como objetivo principal a pesquisa e o mapeamento do território e das territorialidades do Centro Espírita São Sebastião (CESS), em Belo Horizonte, Minas Gerais. Para isso, é fundamental compreender os conceitos de território e territorialidade, bem como aqueles que fazem referência ao sagrado e ao profano sob a ótica da geografia da religião. Neste trabalho o território será entendido como o Centro Espírita São Sebastião, espaço definido desde a década de 1940, a fim de se compreender como três religiões distintas são capazes de ocupar o mesmo território, ainda que apresentem significados sociais, míticos e simbólicos únicos unindo fiéis para experienciar realidades tão diferentes.
Introduction: Biliodigestive anastomosis is a surgical procedure used in the treatment of operative pathologies of the biliary tract. The objective of this study was to evaluate the results, including survival and mortality rates, types of injuries and surgical techniques used in biliodigestive anastomosis performed in patients hospitalized at Hospital Municipal Lourenço Jorge. Methods: We performed a retrospective analysis of the medical records of 41 patients who underwent biliodigestive anastomosis between June 2019 and June 2022. The data collected included age, gender, length of stay, indication, type of procedure, morbidity and mortality. Results:The study included 41 patients with biliary pathology, 17 men (41.5%) and 24 women (58.5%), aged between 24 and 85 years (mean age 54.5 years). Among the patients, 31% had a benign diagnosis and 10% a malignant diagnosis. The most frequent surgical techniques were: choledochoduodenostomy in 25 patients (60.97%), choledochojejunostomy in "Y de Roux" in 8 patients (19.51%) and hepaticojejunostomy in 7 patients (17.07%), 3 of which were performed by Coinaud-Soupault technique and 5 by the Hepp-Coinaud technique. It was observed that 2 patients (4.87%) developed postoperative complications and 6 patients (14.63%) died, 4 with malignant disease and 2 with benign disease. Conclusion: The biliodigestive anastomosis proved to be an effective method in the treatment of several diseases of the biliary tract, providing an improvement in the quality of life of patients. Both in cases of benign diseases, allowing the return to daily activities, and in cases of malignant diseases, increasing survival and improving nutrition. The results obtained in this study are in line with the existing literature regarding the indications and complications of this technique.
