OBJECTIVE: Occupation of Palestine was structured through a colonialist and orientalist discourse. Since 1948, Israeli policies have generated a wide range of abuses against Palestinians. This work aimed to analyze the impacts on the health and quality of life of Palestinians resulting from the Israeli occupation METHODS: Narrative Review of literature about impacts caused by the Israel occupation on Palestinians’ health and quality of life. RESULTS: Palestine has 2.45 million people that requires some form of humanitarian assistance. The current situation is due to constant invasion of Palestinian territories by Jewish settlements and the rigid control of conquered territories, which prevents the population from accessing basic rights such as health and food. CONCLUSION: International humanitarian aid will not be enough to minimize the inequality experienced in the region, which is caused by the political context of coloniality and apartheid in the region.

OBJECTIVE: Due to the situation of growing poverty in the state of Minas Gerais and the tuberculosis’ severity, a pathology associated with poor living conditions, it is necessary to study the incidence of new cases of this pathology so that public health measures can be taken to revert this scenario. So, the objective of this study is to evaluate the incidence of notified cases of tuberculosis in the state of Minas Gerais between 2015 and 2020. METHODS: The number of confirmed and notified cases of tuberculosis in the state of Minas Gerais from 2015 to 2020 was collected in the Information System of Notifiable Diseases of the IT department of the Brazilian Unified Health System (DATASUS), through the Tabnet system. Between 2015 and 2020, 24717 new cases of tuberculosis were reported in the Brazilian state of Minas Gerais. RESULTS: Regarding the year, 4053 occurred in 2015, 4071 in 2016, 4055 in 2017, 4214 in 2018, 4349 in 2019 and 3975 in 2020. CONCLUSION: For all of the foregoing, the great significance and need for attention focused on the prevention and treatment of Tuberculosis is highlighted.

OBJECTIVE: Electrical impedance tomography (EIT) is a non-invasive and radiation-free monitoring technique. The evaluation of EIT results can guide the effectiveness of different therapies, enabling better decisions, standardized behavior, and optimization in the use of resources. The objective is to characterize the use of electrical impedance tomography in the neonatal and pediatric population. METHODS: This is a systematic review, in which articles without language restrictions that addressed the applicability of electrical impedance tomography in the neonatal and pediatric population were analyzed. This review followed the PRISMA recommendations (Key Items for Reporting Systematic Reviews and Meta-analysis). RESULTS: A total of 309 studies were found, of which 302 were excluded according to the eligibility criteria, and 7 were included. All studies investigated the applicability of EIT as an assessment tool for pediatric or neonatal patients. EIT was shown to be effective in evaluating ventilation before extubation, comparing transverse alterations and total lung volume, evaluating the effects of body and head positions on the spatial distribution of ventilation, for potential diagnostic use in pediatric patients with asthma, feasible as a complementary tool in the assessment of community-acquired pneumonia in children, monitoring ventilation and perfusion in newborns and critically ill children, and evaluating recent advances in EIT related to cardiopulmonary imaging. CONCLUSION: EIT has been shown to be an effective monitoring technique for pediatric and neonatal patients. Future studies are needed to improve clinical practice.

OBJECTIVE: Populism has become increasingly popular in many countries and can be a threat to democracy. Populism is also feared to be a threat to public health. However, the impact of populism on healthcare policy has not been studied further. For seeking an explanation of this phenomenon, the aim of this review is to discuss how trends in populism affect health policy and its impact on public health. METHODS: This scoping review conducted using the five-step framework by Arksey and O'Malley. The literature search was conducted on the Google Scholar, Pubmed, and Sciencedirect databases from Augustus-September 2021. All the included studies were extracted based on characteristics that included study author, year of publication, country, theme, and the relevant results. RESULTS: After searching the literature, 500 studies were found that matched the keywords. After going through the exclusion process, 7 studies were obtained. CONCLUSION: This review explains the impact of populism on healthcare policies related to public health. Analysis from the rspective of broader participants and more specific communities can help understand how populism impacts public healthcare policy.

OBJECTIVE: This study presents reflections from a psychoanalytic point of view about real and symbolic grief in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic. METHODS: A qualitative approach was adopted with an exploratory objective to review the literature, with the aim of updating the discussion in psychoanalytic studies about the phenomenon of grief in the pandemic period. RESULTS: The publications found still present an embryonic view of the facts, however, despite this, it was possible for us to shed light on the psychic implications arising from absences, especially of funeral rituals, making difficult the libidinal disinvestment in a given object, so that the ego can seek other objects of desire. CONCLUSION: The conclusion of this study points to the need for further research, considering that the implications of a psychic order will only be perceived and, probably, clarified in a few years' time. However, it is possible to anticipate that a significant part of the population, faced with losses and the impossibility of experiencing the farewell ritual, has been overwhelmed by discouragement. The risk is, then, in the death of desire.

OBJECTIVE: Food and nutritional security is the realization of everyone’s right to regular and permanent access to quality food. In 2011 45% of children deaths in Brazil were related to malnutrition, which contributes to the maintenance of poverty and inequality. METHODS: Data were collected from GBD Compare tool, between 1990 and 2019. The theoretical foundation was carried out through research on database platforms. RESULTS: Reduction of the rates of protein-energy malnutrition through the years was evidenced, on average a reduction of 6,2% every 10 years in all ages. The period of significant drop in food insecurity coincides with the implementation of specific policies for this purpose, and income redistribution policies, such as the Bolsa Família. CONCLUSIONS: The data showed that the situation of malnutrition in Brazil has decreased over the years, however the structural cause of food insecurity has not been removed.

OBJECTIVE: The WHO classified Covid-19 as a pandemic in March 2020, immunization being the best option to prevent its spread. In Brazil, vaccination has been carried out since January 2021. This study aims to investigate if mass immunization against Covid-19 has brought mortality reduction. METHODS: An original, quantitative, and documentary research. For theoretical basis, a narrative literature review was performed. The inclusion criteria were articles published between 2020 and 2021, in English, Portuguese and Spanish. The database used was the Virtual Health Library, using the following descriptors: "Vaccination", "Efficacy", "Mortality", "Coronavirus". RESULTS: Mortality rates increased between February and April, with a peak of 12.86% deaths per million inhabitants. During this period, even though population vaccination had started, the arrival of new viral variants, alike Delta, and the lack of compliance with social isolation measures contributed so that mortality remained high. From June onwards, the Covid-19 mortality rate declined continually. This is related to the increase in vaccination, going from 12.11% at the beginning of June to 31.05% of individuals partially vaccinated at the end of September. CONCLUSION: The Covid-19 pandemic is a serious public health problem, with Brazil being one of the most affected countries. Only in mid-April, with the expansion of the distribution of immunizing agents, mortality rates started dropping. However, we cannot minimize the number of deaths, which so far reaches 500 deaths per day. Thus, it is necessary to maintain protective measures and population vaccination so that the pandemic can come to an end.

OBJECTIVE: To address refugees' access to public healthcare in Brazil. METHODS: Narrative review using recent literature and official documents. RESULTS: Most migrants and refugees access healthcare exclusively through the public health system. Main barriers pointed in research were language, cultural and documentation matters. Most of the issues concern the underfunding of the health system. However, initiatives have been achieving good results, like “Operação Acolhida”. CONCLUSIONS: Delivering refugees the appropriate healthcare is a complex task requiring multiple and intersecting approaches. Although Brazil has a universal healthcare system accessible to those refugees, there are still many difficulties to be tackled in the future if universal healthcare and refugee inclusion is to be achieved.
目的:解决巴西难民获得公共医疗保健的问题。方法:采用近期文献和官方文件进行叙述性回顾。结果:大多数移民和难民只能通过公共卫生系统获得医疗保健。研究中指出的主要障碍是语言、文化和文件问题。大多数问题涉及卫生系统资金不足。然而，一些倡议取得了良好的成果，例如“opera o Acolhida”。结论:向难民提供适当的医疗保健是一项复杂的任务，需要多种交叉的方法。尽管巴西为这些难民提供了一个全民医疗保健系统，但如果要实现全民医疗保健和难民包容，未来仍有许多困难需要解决。

OBJECTIVE: Assessment of the social context of Brazilian indigenous peoples, seeking correlations between conflicts over land demarcation and the poor health condition of this population. METHODS: The search was carried out in September 2021 using the method: problem identification, literature search, evaluation and analysis of the obtained data and construction of the literature review. RESULTS: Since colonization, there has been a great loss of indigenous peoples' rights over their territories, with recognition of their rights only in 1988. In the current scenario, there is an attempt to protect and guarantee these rights in real terms by the National Foundation for the Indigenous (Fundação Nacional do índio [FUNAI]) and, in the health sphere, by the Subsystem of Indigenous Health Care (Subsistema de Atenção à Saúde Indígena [SASI]), created in 1999. Such public agencies are under great governmental pressure, mainly by the Rural Caucus, creating great insecurity, harming the health and quality of life of these groups. CONCLUSION: Despite the constitutional guarantee of the rights of native peoples, the demarcation of land is still an open agenda that makes the guaranteed continuity of village development unstable, weakening the context of mental and physical health of these citizens, as well as the provision of care and provision of effective care.
目的:评估巴西土著人民的社会背景，寻找土地划界冲突与该人口健康状况不佳之间的相关性。方法:检索于2021年9月进行，检索方法为:发现问题、文献检索、对所得资料进行评价分析、构建文献综述。结果:自殖民化以来，土著人民对其领土的权利大大丧失，直到1988年他们的权利才得到承认。在目前的情况下，国家土著人民基金会(funda o Nacional do índio [FUNAI])和1999年成立的土著人民保健子系统(Subsistema de aten o Saúde Indígena [SASI])试图切实保护和保障这些权利。这些公共机构受到政府的巨大压力，主要是农村核心小组的压力，造成了极大的不安全感，损害了这些群体的健康和生活质量。结论:尽管宪法保障土著人民的权利，但土地划界仍然是一个公开的议程，这使得有保障的村庄发展的连续性不稳定，削弱了这些公民的身心健康，以及提供护理和有效护理的环境。

CONCLUSION: Despite the constitutional guarantee of the rights of native peoples, the demarcation of land is still an open agenda that makes the guaranteed continuity of village development unstable, weakening the context of mental and physical health of these citizens, as well as the provision of care and provision of effective care.","PeriodicalId":285800,"journal":{"name":"Brazilian Journal of Global Health","volume":"45 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-11-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128783666","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

OBJECTIVE: This study aims to associate parasitological and hematological tests with the possible diagnosis of toxocariasis in children from Hospital Escola Wladimir Arruda's pediatric care, São Paulo, SP, Brazil. METHODS: Observational, retrospective cross-sectional study, carried out from an active search on medical records of children assisted from Hospital Escola Wladimir Arruda's pediatric care. Data collection was conducted in the first semester of 2021. Medical records of children aged 0-15 years seen at HEWA were reviewed and information was collected regarding signs and symptoms of parasitic infections, data on blood tests, request for parasitological examination and serology for toxocariasis. RESULTS: The research rated 101 medical records of children aged 0 to 15 years. Only 6 (5.4%) presented as diagnostic hypothesis about some type of parasitosis, however none of these had specific diagnosis request for human toxocariasis, as well as request stool examination or other specific examination for other parasitosis. Four (66.6%) of them had blood count data, among these 2 (33.3%) of them show data about eosinophil and leukocyte, which were with no alteration. Half of the suspected cases had dogs at home. CONCLUSION: The lack of protocol or even a specific script to be followed in parasitosis suspected case and especially toxocariasis reflects absence of research on this parasitosis.
目的:本研究旨在将寄生虫学和血液学检查与巴西圣保罗市埃斯科拉·弗拉基米尔·阿鲁达医院儿科护理儿童弓形虫病的可能诊断联系起来。方法:观察性、回顾性横断面研究，对Escola vladimir Arruda医院儿科护理协助的儿童医疗记录进行积极搜索。数据收集工作在2021年第一学期进行。对在卫生保健中心就诊的0-15岁儿童的医疗记录进行了审查，并收集了有关寄生虫感染的体征和症状、血液检查数据、寄生虫学检查请求和弓形虫病血清学的信息。结果:对101份0 ~ 15岁儿童病历进行了评分。仅有6例(5.4%)对某种寄生虫病提出诊断假设，但均未对人类弓形虫病提出特异性诊断要求，也未对其他寄生虫病提出粪便检查或其他特异性检查要求。4例(66.6%)有血球计数，其中2例(33.3%)有嗜酸性粒细胞和白细胞计数，均无改变。一半的疑似病例家中有狗。结论:弓形虫病，特别是弓形虫病疑似病例缺乏治疗方案，甚至缺乏具体的治疗方案，反映了对弓形虫病研究的缺失。
