RESUMOObjetivo: descrever os óbitos por causas externas relacionadas ao trabalho. Método: trata-se de um estudo quantitativo, retrospectivo, do tipo ecológico, baseado em registros de óbitos por acidentes de trabalho no Brasil disponíveis no Sistema de Informação sobre Mortalidade do Departamento de Informática do Sistema Único de Saúde do Ministério da Saúde, no período de 1996 a 2015. Processaram-se a analisaram-se os dados no software Microsoft Office Excel 2010. Apresentaram-se os resultados em forma de tabela. Resultados: registraram-se, no período investigado, 58.940 óbitos relacionados ao trabalho, onde 21.067 (35,74%) ocorreram na região Sudeste, sendo que o sexo masculino foi o mais acometido em todas as regiões e, nas regiões Norte, Nordeste e Centro-Oeste prevaleceram a faixa etária de 25 a 64 anos e indivíduos de cor parda. Revela-se que os principais locais de ocorrência dos óbitos relacionados ao acidente de trabalho foram o hospital e a via pública, e o maior número de óbitos ocorreu entre os acidentes de transporte e outras causas externas de lesões de acidente. Conclusão: entende-se que há um elevado índice de mortalidade por causas externas em ambientes de trabalho no Brasil, e isso demonstra a necessidade do desenvolvimento de ações de proteção e segurança ao trabalhador visando à redução do número de óbitos por acidentes de trabalho no país.

ABSTRACT Objective: to describe the deaths due to external causes related to work. Method: this is a retrospective quantitative study of the ecological type, based on records of work-related injuries in Brazil, available in the Mortality Information System of the Department of Information Technology of the National Health System of the Ministry of Health, in the period from 1996 to 2015. The data was processed in Microsoft Office Excel 2010 software. The results were presented in tabular form. Results: 58,940 work-related deaths were registered in the investigation period, where 21,067 (35.74%) occurred in the Southeast region, with the male gender being the most affected in all regions, and in the North, Northeast and Center-West prevailed between 25 and 64 years of age and individuals of brown color. It is revealed that the main places of occurrence of deaths related to the work accident were the hospital and the public highway, and the highest number of deaths occurred between transportation accidents and other external causes of accident injuries. Conclusion: it is understood that there is a high mortality rate due to external causes in work environments in Brazil, and this demonstrates the need to develop worker protection and safety measures aimed at reducing the number of deaths due to work-related accidents in Brazil.

Purpose To describe the trends in the prevalence of macrosomia (birth weight ≥ 4,000 g) according to gestational age in Brazil in the periods of 2001–2010 and 2012–2014. Methods Ecological study with data from the Brazilian Live Birth Information System (SINASC, in the Portuguese acronym) regarding singleton live newborns born from 22 gestational weeks. The trends in Brazil as a whole and in each of its five regions were analyzed according to preterm (22–36 gestational weeks) and term (37–42 gestational weeks) strata. Annual Percent Changes (APCs) based on the Prais-Winsten method and their respective 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were used to verify statistically significant changes in 2001–2010. Results In Brazil, the prevalence of macrosomic births was of 5.3% (2001–2010) and 5.1% (2012–2014). The rates were systematically higher in the North and Northeast Regions both in the preterm and in term strata. In the preterm stratum, the North Region presented the highest variation in the prevalence of macrosomia (+137.5%) when comparing 2001 (0.8%) to 2010 (1.9%). In the term stratum, downward trends were observed in Brazil as a whole and in every region. The trends for 2012–2014 were more heterogeneous, with the prevalence systematically higher than that observed for 2001–2010. The APC in the preterm stratum (2001–2010) showed a statistically significant trend change in the North (APC: 15.4%; 95%CI: 0.6–32.3) and South (APC: 13.5%; 95%CI: 4.8–22.9) regions. In the term stratum, the change occurred only in the North region (APC:−1.5%; 95%CI: −2.5–−0.5). Conclusion The prevalence of macrosomic births in Brazil was higher than 5.0%. Macrosomia has potentially negative health implications for both children and adults, and deserves close attention in the public health agenda in Brazil, as well as further support for investigation and intervention.

Method: this is a quantitative, epidemiological and descriptive study, carried out with data from the Mortality Information System (MIS). Deaths from aggressions occurred between 2003 and 2014 were analyzed according to the basic cause of death, the triennium of occurrence, sex, age group, region, municipality, place of occurrence and the means used to perpetrate aggression. Results: it is highlighted that the mortality due to aggression was the second largest cause of deaths due to external causes, with a percentage ranging from 12.02 (2003-05) to 9.16 (2012-14). Male overmortality was identified by aggressions in all age groups and the increase in Mortality Coefficients (CM) in the North, rising from 14.67/100 thousand (2003-05) to 20.25 / 100 thousand (2012- 14), Δ = 38.04%. Conclusion: evidence of the results obtained gives visibility to the deaths due to aggression in the elderly and highlights the importance of using the data generated by the MIS as a subsidy to the public policies directed to the elderly.

The Information System that runs at STAI Sebelas April Islamic High School Sumedang, which in processing its academic data still uses a simple computerized system. Although it has been supported by computers but only uses office standards (Microsoft Office Excel and Word) so that it allows a lot of errors in processing academic data. And cause the academic services provided by STAI Sebelas April Sumedang to be less efficient, and lead to difficulties in finding data and taking up relatively long time in making reports. To help in resolving these problems, it is necessary to have a new academic information system so that any work related to data processing can be reduced by the level of error and can provide satisfactory services to system users.

RESUMENEl sistema patriarcal no afecta exclusivamente al poder político y judicial, sino que afecta a la estructura interna de la sociedad, la identidad y las formas de vida de los individuos que en ella viven. Para comprender mejor como condiciona el sistema patriarcal las formas de vida y la visión que tienen los individuos de la realidad social, hemos de analizar el modo en que se extiende al orden institucional y lo determina mediante "tipificaciones" de hechos y de personas y mediante roles concretos, esteoreotipaciones sexiuales que obstaculizan el acceso a la esfera pública de la mujer, así como su reinserción en el mercado laboral, en suma, todo aquello que afecta al conocimiento común que comparten los miembros de una comunidad. El cambio hacia una mayor igualdad y una real democracia paritaria y compartida no es posible sin una paulatina educación y concienciación de la sociedad en su conjunto.PALABRAS CLAVEPATRIARCADO-TIPIFICACIÓN SOCIAL-IGUALDAD DE GÉNEROABSTRACTPatriarchalism is not only present in politics and the judicial system. It also affects the internal structure of society, above all the life and identitý of individuals. To understand better how it conditions their ways of life and the vision the individuals have of social reality, we should study how patriarchalism r3eaches the system of institutions and how this becomes determined by "typifications" of facts and people, and by certain roles or sexual stereotypes that hinder the access of women both to the public sphere and to tha labor market. It sum, everything that concerns the common knowledge that the members of a community share. The move towards more equality and towards a more egalitarian democracy heavily depends on the spread of civic education to the entire society.KEYWORDSPATRIARCHALISM-SOCIAL TYPIFICATION-GENDER EQUALITY

The Cost

The public has ever-rising expectations for the environmental quality of the North Sea and hence of everreducing anthropogenic inputs; by implication society must be willing to accept the cost of reduced contamination. The chemical industry accepts that it has an important part to play in meeting these expectations, but it is essential that proper scientific consideration is given to the potential transfer of contamination from one medium to another before changes are made. A strategy for North Sea protection is put forward as a set of seven principles that must govern the management decisions that are made. Some areas of uncertainty are identified as important research targets. It is concluded that although there have been many improvements over the last two decades, there is more to be done. A systematic and less emotive approach is required to continue the improvement process.

Abstract Background Since 2004, Brazil has had a national policy for occupational health and safety. This policy means companies’ tax burden is altered according to the numbers of work-related accidents and ill-health amongst their workers. In 2010, a multiplication factor was introduced to this policy, called the Accident Prevention Factor. The idea of this new multiplication factor is to encourage individual employers to take initiatives to prevent accidents and ill health in the workplace. This study was designed to investigate the incidence of work-related accidents and ill-health in Brazil according to their causes, their severity, and the economic activity in which they occur, and to compare the data before and after the introduction of the Accident Prevention Factor. Methods An ecological study was conducted by analyzing the time series of work-related accidents/ill-health between 2008 and 2014 from the Brazilian social security system (Previdência Social) statistical yearbooks. Incidences were calculated per cause, economic activity, and severity of the accident/ill-health. Data from before and after the introduction of the Accident Prevention Factor were compared using the Mann-Whitney test per cause and per economic activity. Statistical analyses were made using the SPSS software, with significance set at 5%. Results A reduction in the incidence of work-related accidents/ill-health was found across all the groups of causes analyzed, except for the groups “external causes of morbidity and mortality” and “factors influencing health status and contact with health services.” Greater reductions were found for diseases of the musculoskeletal system and connective tissue and diseases of the nervous system. Reductions in work-related accidents/ill-health were found in the different economic activities and in the different severity groups. The highest reduction after the introduction of the Accident Prevention Factor was in manufacturing and production (p < 0.05). Conclusions Overall, the incidence of accidents/ill-health was found to be on decline, except those with external causes of morbidity and mortality and those involving factors influencing health status and contact with health services. The biggest reduction was found in manufacturing and production. However, generally speaking progress still needs to be made in accident prevention and occupational health across a whole range of work environments.

Abstract In view of the national scenario of scarcity of material and human resources in public health in Brazil, the survey verified the demographics of doctors who attend the Unified Health System (SUS) in municipalities of extreme poverty. An observational, analytical and cross-sectional study was carried out, based on secondary quantitative data from the Department of Informatics of the SUS using the TABNET of December 2019. The care networks variable was restricted to infer the number of physicians who attend the SUS in extreme poverty municipalities in Brazil. Municipalities of extreme poverty are those that at least 20% of the population have a household income of up to 145 reais per capita monthly. In Brazil, there are 1526 municipalities in extreme poverty, 27.4% of the country's total municipalities. 14,907 doctors linked to SUS work in this condition, 3.19% of the total of these professionals in Brazil. There is still disproportion between regions: North concentrates 11.2% of the municipalities in extreme poverty and 8.61% of the total number of doctors; Northeast, with 61.33% of these municipalities, for 61.5% of doctors; Southeast, with 15.46% of the municipalities in this condition, has 20.6% of doctors; South concentrates 10.87% of the municipalities under discussion with 5.61% of doctors and the Midwest, with 4.87% of these municipalities, has 3.54% of doctors. Between 2009 and 2018, there was a 39% increase in the number of doctors in these locations, however, for 2019, there was a decrease of 3.89%. The medical demographic distribution in Brazil is uneven, especially in the North. There is also the vulnerability of this population in view of the observed reduction in the number of professionals between 2018 and 2019 in municipalities of extreme poverty, for political reasons. It is evident the need to restructure the health system to guarantee access to health for this population, through the attraction and fixation of doctors in needy regions in Brazil. Key messages Shortage of doctors in extreme poverty municipalities reinforces the health vulnerability of the population in Brazil. The uneven medical demography in Brazil requires restructuring in the public health system.

AbstractThe COVID-19 crisis has had profound impacts on health service provision, particularly those providing client facing services. Supervised injecting facilities and drug consumption rooms across the world have been particularly challenged during the pandemic, as have their client group—people who consume drugs. Several services across Europe and North America closed due to difficulties complying with physical distancing requirements. In contrast, the two supervised injecting facilities in Australia (the Uniting Medically Supervised Injecting Centre—MSIC—in Sydney and the North Richmond Community Health Medically Supervised Injecting Room—MSIR—in Melbourne) remained open (as at the time of writing—December 2020). Both services have implemented a comprehensive range of strategies to continue providing safer injecting spaces as well as communicating crucial health information and facilitating access to ancillary services (such as accommodation) and drug treatment for their clients. This paper documents these strategies and the challenges both services are facing during the pandemic. Remaining open poses potential risks relating to COVID-19 transmission for both staff and clients. However, given the harms associated with closing these services, which include the potential loss of life from injecting in unsafe/unsupervised environments, the public and individual health benefits of remaining open are greater. Both services are deemed ‘essential health services’, and their continued operation has important benefits for people who inject drugs in Sydney and Melbourne.

Knowledge on the ecology of humpback whales in the eastern North Atlantic is lacking by comparison with most other ocean basins. Humpback whales were historically over-exploited in the region and are still found in low relative abundances. This, coupled with their large range makes them difficult to study. With the aim of informing more effective conservation measures in Ireland, the Irish Whale and Dolphin Group began recording sightings and images suitable for photo-identification of humpback whales from Irish waters in 1999. Validated records submitted by members of the public and data from dedicated surveys were analysed to form a longitudinal study of individually recognizable humpback whales. The distribution, relative abundance and seasonality of humpback whale sighting records are presented, revealing discrete important areas for humpback whales in Irish coastal waters. An annual easterly movement of humpback whales along the southern coast of Ireland is documented, mirroring that of their preferred prey: herring and sprat. Photo-identification images were compared with others collected throughout the North Atlantic (N = 8016), resulting in matches of two individuals between Ireland and Iceland, Norway and the Netherlands but no matches to known breeding grounds (Cape Verde and West Indies). This study demonstrates that combining public records with dedicated survey data is an effective approach to studying low-density, threatened migratory species over temporal and spatial scales that are relevant to conservation and management.
