Abstract

The study was carried out to describe the deliveries structural conditions, characteristics of assistance to the deliveries, to establish the percentage of cesarean section, and to verify the association between the presence of the pediatrician and the type of childbirth with socioeconomic variables. A cross-sectional population-based study was carried out including 840 women from 20 to 49 years old resident in São Leopoldo, Rio Grande do Sul State. Among them, 36 (4.3%) had children within 12 months prior the research. The percentage of women who had caesarian delivery was 52.8%. Regarding the obstetric delivery, 97.2% had been assisted by a doctor and 72.2% of the women had reported the presence of pediatrician at the time of the labor. In 68.6% of the cases the delivery process was financed by the SUS, 20% were by private health care plans and 11.4% were privately paid. The caesarean delivery was less frequent among the women belonging to lower socioeconomic levels (prevalence rate 0.42; CI95% 0.20-0.86). It was verified that 30.4% of the women who had received maternal care by SUS did not report the presence of pediatrician in the labor. It was evidenced the association of the type of delivery and some variables related to ...Continue Reading

COVID-19

Coronaviruses encompass a large family of viruses that cause the common cold as well as more serious diseases, such as the ongoing outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19; formally known as 2019-nCoV). Coronaviruses can spread from animals to humans; symptoms include fever, cough, shortness of breath, and breathing difficulties; in more severe cases, infection can lead to death. This feed covers recent research on COVID-19.

Blastomycosis

Blastomycosis fungal infections spread through inhaling Blastomyces dermatitidis spores. Discover the latest research on blastomycosis fungal infections here.

Nuclear Pore Complex in ALS/FTD

Alterations in nucleocytoplasmic transport, controlled by the nuclear pore complex, may be involved in the pathomechanism underlying multiple neurodegenerative diseases including Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis and Frontotemporal Dementia. Here is the latest research on the nuclear pore complex in ALS and FTD.

Applications of Molecular Barcoding

The concept of molecular barcoding is that each original DNA or RNA molecule is attached to a unique sequence barcode. Sequence reads having different barcodes represent different original molecules, while sequence reads having the same barcode are results of PCR duplication from one original molecule. Discover the latest research on molecular barcoding here.

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

Chronic fatigue syndrome is a disease characterized by unexplained disabling fatigue; the pathology of which is incompletely understood. Discover the latest research on chronic fatigue syndrome here.

Evolution of Pluripotency

Pluripotency refers to the ability of a cell to develop into three primary germ cell layers of the embryo. This feed focuses on the mechanisms that underlie the evolution of pluripotency. Here is the latest research.

Position Effect Variegation

Position Effect Variagation occurs when a gene is inactivated due to its positioning near heterochromatic regions within a chromosome. Discover the latest research on Position Effect Variagation here.

STING Receptor Agonists

Stimulator of IFN genes (STING) are a group of transmembrane proteins that are involved in the induction of type I interferon that is important in the innate immune response. The stimulation of STING has been an active area of research in the treatment of cancer and infectious diseases. Here is the latest research on STING receptor agonists.

Microbicide

Microbicides are products that can be applied to vaginal or rectal mucosal surfaces with the goal of preventing, or at least significantly reducing, the transmission of sexually transmitted infections. Here is the latest research on microbicides.
