Introduction: Screening and early diagnosis are crucial strategies for the detection of breast cancer. In Brazil, the Ministry of Health recommends annual clinical screening in women over 40 years of age, with the addition of biennial mammography for those aged between 50 and 69 years. However, high-risk patients should have mammography annually after the age of 35 years. Objectives: To study the reasons for mammography screening in the age group 50 to 69 years. Method: This is an ecological study of the number of patients per mammography report according to age group, from 2015 to 2019. Data from the Cancer Information System (Sistema de Informação do Câncer – SISCAN) were obtained from the Technology Department of the public health system (Departamento de Informática do Sistema Único de Saúde – DATASUS). Results: When comparing data from the Breast Cancer Information System (Sistema de Informação do Câncer de Mama – SISMAMA) from 2015 to 2019, we found 8,569,457 mammographies, of which 5,216,473 were performed in women aged 50 years to 69 years, which corresponds to 60.87% of the procedures. In addition, 4.90% of these women were high-risk individuals, and 1.24% had been treated for breast cancer. Mammography reports showed that 12.01% of the results were inconclusive, 38.28% were normal, 46.12% had a benign radiological finding, 2.58% had a probably benign finding, 0.78% had a suspicious finding, 0.14% had a highly suspicious finding, and 0.04% had malignant confirmation. The proportion of BI-RADS categories 4, 5, and 6 totaled 83,852 screenings, the equivalent to 0.97% of reports. In addition, 59.49% (49,891) of women who presented mammographic findings with malignant characteristics belonged to the age group 50–69 years. Conclusion: This study concluded that the strategy of biennial breast cancer screening shows scientific evidence of mortality reduction, given that 59.49% of the reports with malignant characteristics corresponded to the age group 50 to 69 years. However, the data presented did not allow calculating the number of women outside this age group who do not receive care and develop breast cancer.

Background: Neural tuberculosis is an infection of the central nervous system caused by the bacterium Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Bearing in mind that neural tuberculosis is the most severe form of extrapulmonary tuberculosis and results in significant morbidity and mortality rates, it is important to analyze its sociodemographic characteristics in Brazil. Objectives: To describe the sociodemographic characteristics of neural tuberculosis cases in Brazil in the period from 2010 to 2020. Design and Setting: Cross-sectional, retrospective, and descriptive study, carried out using data collected from the Notifiable Diseases Information System (SINAN) and the Hospital Information System (SIH / SUS) of confirmed cases and hospitalizations for neural tuberculosis. Methods: Variables used: region, sex, age group, color/race and year of service. Results: In the period from 2010 to 2020, the number of notified cases of meningoencephalic tuberculosis was 7.451, with mean cases per year of 677.36. The Southeast region was the most affected with 43.8% of the total cases, followed by the South and Northeast regions, with 24.1% and 20.1%, respectively. There was a wide predominance in individuals aged 30-39 years (42.8%) and in the age group 40-59 years (35.9%). The male sex was the most affected with 63.3% of the total. Conclusions: The study shows a predominance of cases in the South and Southeast regions, with a significant prevalence of males and age groups of 20- 59. This could be an alert for new prevention and health promotion strategies for the most affected groups.


Recently, accidents involving ground transportations are getting worse and more serious. Indonesian State Police (Korlantas POLRI) recorded the number of accidents in 2018 as many as 109,215 accidents. The number has incresed 4.69 percent compared to 2017 as many as 104,327 events. Road traffic accidents are caused by human error, the driver in this case. The driver's mistake is influenced by several factors, one of them is they cannot expect the road condition when they drive a vehicle at high speed. To solve this problem, drivers need information that can show road conditions. So, we present a new approach for detecting damaged roads by applying augmented reality technology. This research produces a road condition information system to help drivers get information about road conditions via smartphone. This system uses augmented reality technology with a markerless GPS Based Tracking method. The development of this system requires several stages such as collecting the data, data conversion, data classification, and views road condition. The researchers gathered the road condition data from the Public Work Department Semarang. This department itself undertakes a task to control the road condition in Semarang The trial of this system includes all drivers in Semarang city. Based on the results of the questionnaire responded to by 93 respondents, this test obtained an average value of 68%. So this system gets a pretty good response from the driver. Through this system, all drivers can avoid the damaged road condition which can cause traffic-congested and accident.

Continually increasing requirements on nowadays full scope PSA L1 and L2 as whole, which is multiplied by importance of specific data for all modes of operation of nuclear power plant, highlight role of input data used in PSA quantification process. This fact also emphasizes the role of capability to process all necessary information to analyze all nuclear plant modes by appropriate way. Even if abovementioned aspects are relevant for all parts of nowadays PSAs, their importance is critical for internal hazards including specific fire analysis. Because internal fire analysis forms one of the most challenging PSA tasks, requiring interdisciplinary work including processing and integration of extensive amount of data in such a way that fire analysis results are fully consistent with internal PSA events and can be directly incorporated into PSA project. Application of tailored information system forms one of the ways to speed up analyzing process, enhances manageability and maintainability of particular PSA projects and provides effective reporting mean to document process of work as well as traceable and human readable documentation for customers. Such information system also allows implementing rapid changes in processing input data and reduces the risk of human error. Usage of information systems for modification of input data for Living PSA is invaluable. Transparent highly automatized processing of input data allows the analyst to obtain more accurate and better insight to evaluate aspects of particular fire and its consequences. This paper provides brief overview of VUJE approach and experience in this area. The paper introduces general purpose of database developed for PSA needs containing data for relevant PSA structure system and components as well as information relevant for flood and fire analyses. Paper explains as this basic data source is enhanced by adding several relatively independent tiers to employ all common data for fire PSA purpose. Paper also briefly introduces capability of such system to generate integrated documentation covering all stages of fire analyses, covering all screening stages of fire analysis as well as future plans to enhance this part of work in such a way to be capable to build automatic interface between PSA model and fire database to enable PSA model parameters automatic updating and expansion of fires in combinations of initiating events (for example Fire and seismic event).
