L’évaluation de la qualité de l’eau est aujourd’hui axée sur les indicateurs biologiques tels que les macroinvertébrés benthiques. Cette étude réalisée au niveau du Kou et du Wé, deux cours d’eau à l’Ouest du Burkina Faso, avait pour objectif de faire un inventaire comparatif de la structuration des macroinvertébrés afin de ressortir des espèces bioindicatrices. Un échantillonnage bimensuel des macroinvertébrés, couplé à des mesures de paramètres physico-chimiques de l’eau, a donc été réalisé de novembre 2019 à mars 2020.

Polyvinyl alcohol (PVAl) is a biodegradable and biocompatible polymer; and due to these characteristics, it is being widely applied in health systems. Zinc oxide (ZnO) nanoparticles have several properties, including antimicrobial activity. Bentonite is a sodium-type clay that has water-absorbing properties, allowing the opening of its coverslips and the entry of other molecules between them. This article studied the interactions of nanocomposites formed by PVAl, bentonite and ZnO nanoparticles, generating nanostructured systems.

The present study attempts to assess the resource-use efficiency in Composite Fish Culture in Sivasagar District of Assam. The study was based on primary data collectedthrough personal interview method of sampling by interviewing 150 samples borrowers and 150 non-borrowers from three size groups (based on pond size)being selected through cumulative root frequency rule.

The main purpose of the article is to investigate the ergonomic risks of Community Health Agent (CHA) and identify musculoskeletal diseases acquired in the work process of these professionals in São Gonçalo do Amarante, Ceará, Brazil. To achieve the goal we chose an exploratory, descriptive study with a quantitative approach. The study population consisted of 117 Community Health Agents (CHA) and the sample 87 with CHA as an inclusion criterion all CHA rural and urban areas of the municipality.

Objetivo: Avaliar a situação de internações e óbitos no Brasil no ano de 2020 com foco no entendimento dos impactos preliminares da pandemia do novo coronavírus.Métodos: O presente estudo é do tipo descritivo retrospectivo realizado com dados do DATASUS de janeiro a julho dos anos de 2011 a 2020, para o estudo consideramos: gastos hospitalares, número de internações e suas especialidades e óbitos por grupo de CID-10, todos os dados são públicos e estão disponíveis nos sistemas de saúde.

Objetivo: Analisar o efeito de uma capacitação em suporte básico de vida sobre o conhecimento autorreferido da população geral. Método: Estudo quase experimental, do tipo antes e depois, com 248 indivíduos, desenvolvido durante o evento “RCP Day”. Foi realizada uma capacitação teórico-prática, com duração de 20 minutos. Os dados foram coletados em junho de 2017, a partir de um instrumento estruturado com questões de caracterização e referentes à Parada Cardiorrespiratória (PCR) e a RCP, aplicado antes e após a capacitação.

Background: Sexual Violence is the most common form of violence against women, with one in three women are victims of sexual violence. High number of female sexual violence survivors seek medical treatment at Gender Violence Recovery Centre (GVRC) of Jaramogi Oginga Odinga Teaching and Referral Hospital (JOOTRH) in Kisumu, Kenya. Yet forms of sexual violence are poorly documented. Methods: A cross sectional study was carried out to assess forms of sexual violence among 120 conveniently sampled female sexual violence survivors at GVRC of JOOTRH.

This work aimed to develop an algorithm based on Convolutional Neural Networks and to compare it to a GIS plugin for automatic classification of sugarcane planting areas in medium spatial resolution images from Remote Sensing (RS) at municipality of Coruripe/AL, Brazil. We used Qgis software to process Land Remote Sensing Satellite (Landsat) images and to calculate sugarcane class areas in 2018, followed by Python, OpenCV, Keras and Tensorflow for developing algorithm to images training and classification, and finally, used Random Forest Classifier (RF) algorithm.

Objetivos: determinar a prevalência da depressão em idosos cadastrados em uma instituição de assistência psicossocial e os fatores associados. Métodos: Trata-se de uma pesquisa documental, descritiva, quantitativa, realizada em um Centro de Atenção Psicossocial no interior da Bahia. Foram selecionados prontuários de usuários, tendo como critérios de inclusão: ter idade de 60 anos ou mais, de ambos os sexos, com campos devidamente preenchidos. O instrumento utilizado para realização da pesquisa foi um formulário estruturado e os dados foram analisados através de estatística simples.

The general objective of this article is to explain an analysis of the process of demonization of African religions in Haiti, specifically the case of voodoo. Such an analysis will be based on the Oedipalization category/process, as shown in the 1972 anti-Oedipus of Deleuze and Guattari. Thus, to develop our general objective, we will deal with the construction of the process of demonization and Christianization of African religions in your continent. . Then we will approach the concept of oedipality in the light of the anti-oedipus.
