“…In order to make this experiment replicable by researchers from other countries, it would be recommended to translate procedure codes and terminology based on international standards, such as HL7. 30,31 Another strength to be highlighted is the variability of the metrics evaluated during the analysis period, especially considering that, since March 2020, Brazil has been facing the SARS-COV-2 pandemic, 32 which has had a strong impact in healthcare, due to the restrictions imposed by social Source: the authors distancing, and also to the abrupt increase in the costs generated by beneficiaries whose health conditions were worsened by the disease. For example, K-nearest neighbor presented a 5.98% difference for the recall rate, considering the subtraction between best and worst results.…”

The objective of this study was to apply the Knowledge Discovery in Databases process to find out if beneficiaries of a private healthcare insurance would belong, at least once, to the ‘very high cost’ and ‘complex cases’ groups throughout the 12 months after the month when algorithms were applied. Datasets were built containing information on beneficiaries’ effective use of their health plan, as well as their characteristics. Five machine learning algorithms were used, namely Random forest, Extra tree, Xgboost, Naive bayes and K-nearest neighbor. The K-nearest neighbor algorithm had a recall rate of 81.12%, 83.77% precision and an Area Under the Curve (AUC) value of 0.9045. The study also revealed that categorization occurs, on average, 8.11 months before a beneficiary entering, for the first time, a high-risk group, considering the dataset classification from January 2019 to June 2020.

“…Ela se configurou como uma verdadeira luta em 210 países, impactando a vida das pessoas numa conjuntura econômica de produção e distribuição, entrelaçada com a vida cotidiana, que exigiu mudanças de comportamento de vivência. Contudo, Covid-19, não se tratou apenas de uma questão sanitária, sobretudo os impactos socioeconômicos foram ampliados, aumentando a desigualdade extrema, a fome e a pobreza sem precedentes (Gama Neto, 2020; Matta et al, 2021).…”

The Covid-19 pandemic devastated thousands of lives, causing a health and socioeconomic crisis, with direct effects on increasing poverty and hunger. However, these aspects are rarely associated with semi-hydroponic fruit production and its role in food security. Therefore, the objective of this investigation was to identify a successful case of food production in family farming in a small municipality called Diamante do Sul, located in the state of Paraná, Brazil, which has one of the worst Municipal Human Development Indexes of the state. This article was based on a case study. The data were collected from non-participant observation and a semi-structured interview, applied to a farmer selected by convenience. We verified that the technological innovation of semi-hydroponics represents an excellent alternative for the production of strawberry fruit, in quantity and quality. This production system, implemented through the access to rural credit, besides the fast return on investment, acts in the generation of income for the family and the strengthening of their productive autonomy. Thus, the production of strawberries in times of pandemic famine has an influence on food security and the movement of the local economy, since production occurs throughout the year.

“…As highlighted by Matta et al (2021), the global scale of COVID-19 does not reflect a universal and homogeneous phenomenon. Understanding the pandemic in different contexts, places and languages exposes the issue multiplicity and specificity, from its macro-social to daily consequences (Matta et al, 2021). In this sense, vulnerabilization processes encourage us to think about local contexts, scenarios in which the scourges of inequalities develop and increase socio-spatial precariousness (Lima et al, 2021).…”

The article aims to present results of a research that mapped communication technologies and arrangements designed and directed toward vulnerable populations in the territory of the Federal District (DF), Brazil, in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic. The research, which integrated a multicentric investigation, has a qualitative approach and was structured in five stages: virtual mapping of experiences; interviews with their leaders; individual and cross-sectional analysis of empirical material; collective validation of the results by virtual sessions and construction of a thematic map of the experiences. Fourteen initiatives on COVID-19 were mapped in the DF that had a communicational component and were aimed at the population of peripheral territories, with ten being selected for in-depth analysis.The respective leaders were interviewed, composing a thematic cartographic panorama of technologies and communication arrangements: life stories; “word of mouth”; network joints; in-person and organic communication; cards; advocacy; digital social networks; use of territorial equipment as communication tools; independent digital community newspaper; apps; solidarity network and community TV. The commitment of communication strategies and technologies regarding local realities, respecting the characteristics of communities, is highlighted, pointing to a crucial difference in relation to the predominant communication about the pandemic in public health institutions.
