Objetivo: O câncer de pâncreas possui alta taxa de mortalidade e uma baixa taxa de sobrevida, sendo o estudo de sua epidemiologia fundamental para o desenvolvimento de políticas que favoreçam o diagnóstico precoce. Dessa forma, o objetivo do presente estudo é descrever o perfil epidemiológico dos pacientes diagnosticados com câncer de pâncreas na região Norte do Brasil no período de 2010 a 2018. Método: O estudo epidemiológico apresenta natureza descritiva e foi realizado por meio da coleta de dados disponíveis no Departamento de Informação e Informática do SUS (DATASUS) no período de 2010 a 2018 dos sete estados da Região Norte do Brasil. Verificou-se o número total, por sexo e idade de casos de neoplasias malignas do pâncreas. Resultados: Foram encontrados 2.080 casos durante o período analisado, percebendo-se um aumento significativo na incidência dessa neoplasia na região. O número de internações foi maior em indivíduos com 60 anos ou mais e no sexo masculino, com exceção dos estados do Amazonas e Pará em que foi maior no sexo feminino. O estado de Rondônia apresentou um maior aumento da taxa de incidência, que passou de 0,84 em 2010 para 5,88 em 2018, enquanto no Amapá observou-se um decréscimo desse valor (de 1,75 para 1,48). Conclusão: A incidência dos casos na região Norte dobrou no período avaliado sendo, em geral, mais comum em homens com 60 anos ou mais. No ano de 2018, a incidência no estado de Rondônia ultrapassou as estimativas mundiais para esse câncer. Destaca-se a importância dos dados encontrados por esse estudo que podem contribuir com o desenvolvimento de medidas de saúde pública relacionadas ao tema.   Palavras-chave: Neoplasias pancreáticas; Epidemiologia; Incidência. ABSTRACT Objective: Pancreatic cancer has a high mortality rate and a low survival rate, and its epidemiology study is fundamental for the development of policies that will favor an early diagnosis. Thus, the objective of the present study is to describe the epidemiological profile of patients who were diagnosed with pancreatic cancer in the northern region of Brazil from 2010 to 2018. Method: The epidemiological study is descriptive and was performed through the collection of available data in the Electronic Information Department of SUS (DATASUS), from 2010 to 2018 including seven states of the Northern Region of Brazil. The total number, by sex and age, of cases of malignant neoplasms of pancreas was verified. Results: A total of 2080 cases were found during the analyzed period, with a significant increase in the incidence of this neoplasia in the region. The number of hospitalizations was higher in individuals who were 60 years of age or older and males, except for the states of Amazonas and Pará, where it was higher among females. The state of Rondônia presented a higher increase in the incidence rate, which increased from 0.84 in 2010 to 5.88 in 2018, while in Amapá there was a decrease of this value (from 1.75 to 1.48). Conclusion: The incidence of cases in the Northern region doubled in the evaluated period and, in general, it is more common in men aged 60 years or older. In 2018, the incidence in the state of Rondônia exceeded the world estimates for this cancer. The importance of the data found by this study is of grand importance once that may contribute to the development of public health measures related to the theme. Keywords: Pancreatic Neoplasms; Epidemiology; Incidence.

Abstract Bovine coccidiosis is a disease of major importance in cattle herds across the world. The disorder mainly affects young calves, and E. bovis and E. zuernii are considered the most pathogenic species of the genus, however, E. alabamensis have been described in grazing calves. In this study, the prevalence of Eimeria spp. was evaluated in calves on dairy farms in the northern region of the state of Paraná, Brazil. Four hundred calves on 44 dairy farms were tested for the presence of coccidian oocysts. The positives were re-examined and the oocysts were morphometrically analyzed for species identification. All the farms were contaminated and 205 animals (51.25%) presented Eimeria spp. oocysts. Among these, 146 animals (71.22%) were co-infected by two or more species of coccidia. Ten species of Eimeria were identified: E. bovis (in 30.25% of the positive samples), E. alabamensis (26.75%), E. zuernii (22.00%), E. ellipsoidalis (18.50%), E. auburnensis (13.75%), E. canadensis (8.00%), E. cylindrica (7.25%), E. subspherica (5.00%), E. bukidnonensis (3.00%) and E. brasiliensis (0.75%). This study demonstrates the high prevalence of Eimeria spp. in the northern region of Paraná, Brazil, and detection for the first time in our region the pathogenic species E. alabamensis.

Brazil is one of the main exporters of agricultural products and is one of the largest consumers of pesticides in the world. Bahia stands out in irrigated agriculture, with growth at the national and international level exports. The aim of this study is to describe and analyze the spatial distribution, and the epidemiological profile of the population with confirmed cases of pesticides intoxication in the state of Bahia-Brazil, from 2007 to 2017. It is an ecological and retrospective study of a series, with secondary data collected at the Department of Informatics of the System Of Health (DATASUS), on notifications and confirmed cases of pesticide poisoning in the state in 2007 to 2017. In Bahia, about 1,632 notifications of exogenous pesticide poisoning in the investigated period, confirming about 1137 cases. The main age group affected by these intoxications were related to 20-39 years of age. The results of this study show the increase in the number of notified and confirmed cases in Bahia during years from 2007 to 2017, thus suggesting the carrying out of research on the subject in this and other Brazilian states, in order to monitor and evaluate the causes of these pesticide poisoning, and improve health promotion.

Abstract Background Pancreatic cancer is one of the most significant causes and one of the most lethal malignant neoplasms in the world of cancer death in the developed nations. It was named the “silent killer” for its quiet course, late clinical presentation, and the trend of rapid growth. The aim of this study is to detect the reliability of multidetector CT (MDCT) as diagnostic tool in assessing the possibility of eradicating pancreatic cancer. Results Twenty-four patients (57%) were not suitable for surgery with non-resectable mass; the remaining eighteen patients (43%) were considered suitable according to MDCT criteria for surgical resection of the tumor. Fourteen out of the sixteen patients (87.5%) had a successful removal of the lump, while the remaining two cases (12.5%) during surgery, the mass was unresectable. The results of the pathology specimens showed that fourteen out of the fourteen patients (100%) had successful operation with no cancer cells in the margin, and a positive predictive value of 87.5% and accuracy of 89.47%. Conclusions The advancement of MDCT expertise improves the outcome of pancreatic cancer resectability.

The paper examines various approaches to the definition of the term «digital economy» in the scientific and business environment along with factors and forms of its development in different countries taking into account the specifics of the current stage of the Russian economy, which is a matter of particular importance in seeking new sources of the world economy growth. The subject of the research is opportunities and threats inherent in the process of digitalization of economies and their impact on the operation of international and national markets as well as the development of the world economy as a whole. The purpose of the paper was to analyze the practical experience in the formation and development of the digital economy in foreign countries and Russia and identify the changes it brings to the activities of state institutions and business structures, established rules of market exchange, the process of promotion and use of innovations. All the above made it possible to determine the country-level specifics of the digital economy evolution reveal the contradictory nature of its manifestations and justify the necessity for active participation of the state in stimulation and support of potentially promising digital innovations in various sectors of the economy. It is concluded that the level of the digital economy development depends on the real-sector performance, the maturity of markets, the state of the national economy.

The article deals with the fundamental, inherent in most of the countries of the world transformation of state power, its formation, functioning and division between the main branches as a result of the decentralization of such power, its subsidiarity. Attention is drawn to the specifics of state power, its func- tional features in the conditions of sovereignty of the states, their interconnec- tion. It is emphasized that the nature of the state power is connected with the nature of the political system of the state, with the form of government and many other aspects of a fundamental nature.It is analyzed that in the middle of national states the questions of legitima- cy, sovereignty of transparency of state power, its formation are acutely raised. Concerning the practical functioning of state power, a deeper study now needs a problem of separation of powers and the distribution of power. The use of this principle, which ensures the real subsidiarity of the authorities, the formation of more effective, responsible democratic relations between state power and civil society, is the first priority of the transformation of state power in the conditions of modern transformations of countries and societies. It is substantiated that the research of these problems will open up much wider opportunities for the provi- sion of state power not as a center authority, but also as a leading political structure but as a power of the people and the community. In the context of global democratization processes, such processes are crucial for a more humanistic and civilized arrangement of human life. It is noted that local self-government, as a specific form of public power, is also characterized by an expressive feature of a special subject of power (territorial community) as a set of large numbers of people; joint communal property; tax system, etc.
