Introduction: The nursing team is involved in all the stages of the assistance given to the patient, which generates a high quantity of registers related to the procedures. Objective: To analyze the failures in the nursing notes that interfere with the quality of care according to the literature. Methodology: This is Integrative Literature Review research in the LILAC, BDENF and SCIELO electronic library databases from original articles, in Portuguese language published in the period from 2010 to 2020.

Introdução: A humanização da saúde é vista no contexto atual como um movimento integrador das relações da saúde, buscando a melhoria do atendimento e um ambiente propício para o desenvolvimento do cuidado.

Metodologia: Pesquisa bibliográfica, de abordagem qualitativa do tipo descritiva. Results: Fourteen studies were selected, all in Portuguese.

The choice of metallic materials for use in orthopedic and dental implants is made by evaluating physical, chemical and biocompatibility properties. Among these materials we highlight titanium-based alloys, such as those from the Ti-Al-Nb system, which have high chemical stability and biocompatibility attributed to the presence of niobium.

The authors are commenting on the study entitled: “Four-year outcomes of aflibercept treatment for neovascular age-related macular degeneration: results from rel-life setting” published by Lukic et al. in European Journal Ophthalmology 2020 (Doi: 10.1177/1120672120938565. Published on June 25, 2020), which assessed 4-year structural and functional outcomes in intravitreal aflibercept treatment for 89 patients (94 eyes) with neovascular age-related macular degeneration in a real-world setting.

The occupation process of The Chapada Diamantina - located in the central part of the state of Bahia, Brazil - is directly associated with its peculiar Geodiversity, where geological and geomorphological aspects stands out. The region's growth was associated with two economic cycles: firstly, mineral exploration, which promoted the emergence of important cities and towns; and then what tries to explore the tourist possibilities of the Plate. It is worth noting that this second cycle is based on the roughness left by the first cycle, as well as on the scenic beauty, wells and waterfalls.

The Brazilian agricultural production exceeds the storage capacity, with that the construction of silo becomes essential, being the loads exerted by the product stored in the structure, the main factor for disasters in silos. In view of this, the present work aims to determine the pressures exerted by bean cultivars, according to EUROCODE 1.

A energia das ondas é um recurso pouco aproveitado, devido ao custo atual elevado de produção. Simulações realísticas do estado de mar são necessárias para avaliar a viabilidade e eficiência da instalação de dispositivos conversores da energia das ondas do mar em energia elétrica. Nesse contexto, o presente trabalho apresenta uma comparação da potência disponível em um conversor do tipo Coluna de Água Oscilante (CAO) quando submetido a ondas irregulares ou ondas regulares.

Theaim of this study was to trace and describe the epidemiological profile of patientsundergoing colonoscopy through an observational cross-sectional cohort study whichfocused on patients from a macro region comprised of 84 municipalities in the inland of the state of São Paulo from 2015 to 2019. Results from 610 patients undergoing colonoscopy at the Regional Hospital of Jundiaíwere used to develop a comparative analysis betweenexam requests and main endoscopic findings, including prevalent colorectal pathologies.

The objective was to verify the possibility of the production of tuberous roots of sweet potatoes in an aeroponic systemin order to use these roots as seeds. The research was developed at the State University of Ponta Grossa (PR – Brazil). There were performed four attempts for the developing ofone aeroponic system in a greenhouse, involving experiments with structures and nutrient solutions for seven sweet potatoes genotypes.
