Uso de Plantas Medicinais Associadas à Saúde Feminina Brasileira: Uma Revisão de Literatura
No full textMedicinal plants are plant species containing active compounds capable of promoting therapeutic effects,used since ancient times for the care and treatment of diseases. In women's health, they play a relevant rolein preventing and managing gynecological and reproductive conditions, especially in resource-limitedcommunities, where they represent an accessible therapeutic alternative. In herbal medicine, their use isassociated with the relief of menopausal symptoms, menstrual disorders, and genitourinary tract conditions.This study aimed to review national scientific literature on the use of medicinal plants in women's health,describing species used, their forms of application, and potential benefits. This is an integrative review thatanalyzed publications in Portuguese and English, from 2017 to 2025, retrieved from SciELO Brasil,Arquivos do Mudi, Google Scholar, and CAPES Journal Portal. Thirteen studies met the inclusion criteria,highlighting species such as Allium sativum L., Curcuma longa L., Zingiber officinale Roscoe, Morus nigraL., Senna alata (L.) Roxb., among others, used in the management of endometriosis, dysmenorrhea,candidiasis, climacteric, and menopausal symptoms. Evidence suggests positive outcomes, but also reinforces the need for safe prescription and appropriate handling by trained professionals to avoid risks such as overdose and intoxication.Plantas medicinais são espécies vegetais que contêm princípios ativos capazes de promover efeitosterapêuticos, sendo utilizadas desde a antiguidade como recurso de cuidado e tratamento de enfermidades.No contexto da saúde da mulher, desempenham papel relevante na prevenção e no manejo de condiçõesginecológicas e reprodutivas, especialmente em comunidades com recursos limitados, onde representamalternativa terapêutica acessível. Na fitoterapia, seu uso está associado ao alívio de sintomas da menopausa,distúrbios menstruais e afecções do trato geniturinário. Este estudo teve como objetivo revisar a literaturacientífica nacional acerca do uso de plantas medicinais voltadas à saúde feminina, descrevendo espéciesempregadas, suas formas de uso e potenciais benefícios. Trata-se de uma revisão integrativa que analisoupublicações em português e inglês, de 2017 a 2025, localizadas nas bases SciELO Brasil, Arquivos do Mudi,Google Acadêmico e Portal de Periódicos da CAPES. Foram selecionados 13 trabalhos que atenderam aoscritérios de inclusão, destacando-se espécies como Allium sativum L., Curcuma longa L., Zingiber officinaleRoscoe, Morus nigra L., Senna alata (L.) Roxb., entre outras, utilizadas no manejo de endometriose,dismenorreia, candidíase, sintomas do climatério e da menopausa. Evidências indicam resultados positivos,porém reforçam a necessidade de prescrição segura e manejo adequado por profissionais capacitados, a fimde evitar riscos como superdosagem e intoxicação
Textos como umbrales de un nuevo siglo y un nuevo modo de leer la violencia contra cuerpos feminizados. Escena de ley, de impunidad y testimonio: el caso de El desierto y su semilla (1998), de Jorge Barón Biza
No full textThis paper is a brief summary of one of the sections of the first chapter of my thesis in which I work with Argentine fiction that deals with the murder of feminized bodies prior to the enactment of the law that modifies the penal code and recognizes femicide as a particular type of crime and also prior to the term being coined by feminist movements and international human rights law. In particular, the novel El desierto y su semilla (1998), by Jorge Barón Biza, will be analyzed here around some axes of reading that are related to the link I establish between literature and law and the way in which literature relates to and appears (in Derridian terms) before the law in order to effect a movement of closeness and friction with the law. In this sense, the focus here is on the way in which literature puts the law in check as it exposes Eligia\u27s suicide as a mode of feminicide that the law could not recognize because the facts, in relation to temporality, could not make the law function. Literature lets us see something that the law cannot show and, in this sense, establishes another kind of justice. At the same time, this novel functions as an antecedent of a voice that will be fundamental when the issue of feminicides in Argentina occupies a central place in the narratives about precaricides against feminized bodies. That voice is from the children of those victims, witnesses and affected part of this violence.Este trabajo es un resumen escueto de uno de los apartados del primer capítulo de mi tesis en donde trabajo con ficciones argentinas que tematizan modos del asesinato a cuerpos feminizados previo a la sanción de la ley que modifica el código penal y reconoce al femicidio como un tipo penal particular y previo, también, a que el término sea acuñado por los movimientos feministas y el derecho internacional de los derechos humanos. En particular, aquí se analizará la novela El desierto y su semilla (1998), de Jorge Barón Biza, en torno a algunos ejes de lectura que tienen relación con el vínculo que establezco entre literatura y ley y el modo en el que la literatura se relaciona y comparece, en términos derridianos, ante la ley para efectuar un movimiento de cercanía y fricción con la ley. En este sentido se hace foco aquí en el modo en el que la literatura pone en jaque al derecho en tanto expone el suicidio de Eligia como un modo del feminicidio que el derecho no pudo reconocer porque los hechos, en relación con la temporalidad, no podrían hacer funcionar la ley en tanto tal. La literatura deja ver algo que el derecho no puede mostrar y, en este sentido, establece otro tipo de justicia. A su vez, esta novela funciona como antecedente de una voz que será fundamental, cuando la problemática sobre los feminicidios en la Argentina ocupe un lugar central en las narraciones sobre precaricidios contra cuerpos feminizados. Esa voz es la de los hijxs de esas víctimas, testigos y partes afectadas de esas violencias
Impact of Quality of Life on Oral Health in Brazilian Young People with and without Cleft Lip/Palate
No full textObjective: To identify the most common clefts in patients at a craniofacial deformity rehabilitation center, to evaluate the impact on oral health-related quality of life in different cleft types, and to compare it between children and adolescents with cleft lip and palate (CL/P) and a control group without clefts. Material and Methods: A quantitative cross-sectional design was used, involving 150 patients with CL/P from the center and 150 individuals in the control group from a public school, all aged between 8 and 18 years old. Data were collected using the Child Oral Health Impact Profile (COHIP) questionnaire and information on the orofacial cleft type. Bivariate analyses (Pearson\u27s chi-squared test) examined the relationship between cleft types and COHIP domains and between the two groups, with a significance level of α=5%. Results: Cleft lip and palate were the most prevalent (61.3%). However, there was no significant difference in oral health-related quality of life between cleft types (p>0.05). General oral quality of life scores did not differ between the groups, but the control group showed higher scores in the \u27functional well-being\u27 and \u27personal image\u27 domains. Conclusion: There are no differences in the impact of oral health-related quality of life between children and young people with cleft lip and palate and the control group.
 
Association Between Endodontics Alterations and Transplanted Patients or Those in Need of Kidney or Liver Transplantation: A Scoping Review
No full textObjective: To investigate clinical studies that evaluated the relationship between endodontic alterations and transplanted patients or those in need of liver or kidney transplantation compared to patients not in need of transplantation. Material and Methods: This review followed the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analyses (PRISMA) statement. Two independent authors conducted an electronic search of the main databases until January 2025. Clinical studies evaluating endodontic changes in transplant patients were included in this study. There was no restriction on the date of publication. Results: Among the 332 studies retrieved, 11 studies were included. Two cross-sectional studies assessed the interrelationship between patients undergoing liver transplantation and endodontic changes. Nine studies evaluated the relationship between kidney transplantation and endodontic changes; two studies found no relationship between pulp calcification and these patients; however, another three studies found a relationship between the chronicity of the actual disease and pulp chamber narrowing. Conclusion: Few clinical studies have evaluated the interrelationship between patients of liver transplantation and endodontic changes; studies that have evaluated the interrelationship between patients of kidney transplantation have found a relationship mainly with pulp chamber narrowing, but no relationship with pulp calcifications
Mais do que números, são vozes: o princípio da dignidade humana e a segurança humana como valores para o processo de integração dos refugiados no Brasil
No full textThe principle of human dignity and human security are values that must be intrinsic to the construction of greater agency for refugees in relation to the local integration process. In this sense, the objective of this article is to relate human dignity and security to the integration of refugees in Brazil by understanding the main needs through active listening to the UNHCR 2021 and 2023 Participatory Diagnosis reports. To this end, a theoretical-bibliographical survey about the principles of human dignity and security, as well as the main normative acts, brazilian laws on refugees and the local integration process. In this way, local integration is outlined based on human dignity and security, understanding the need for actions that bring refugees to the center of integration. The data in the reports demonstrate the deficiencies in integration, and even more so the importance of actions in this sense, of dignifying with the act of active participation.O princípio da dignidade da pessoa humana e a segurança humana são valores que devem ser intrínsecos para a construção de um maior agenciamento dos refugiados em relação ao processo de integração local. Nesse sentido, o objetivo deste artigo é relacionar a dignidade e a segurança humana para a integração dos refugiados no Brasil, ao entender as principais necessidades através da escuta ativa pelos relatórios Diagnósticos Participativos do ACNUR 2021 e 2023. Para isso, um levantamento teórico-bibliográfico acerca do princípio da dignidade e da segurança humana são feitos, bem como os principais atos normativos, leis brasileiras sobre o refúgio e o processo de integração local. Dessa forma, a integração local é delineada a partir da dignidade e segurança humana compreendendo a necessidade de ações que agenciam os refugiados ao centro da integração. Os dados dos relatórios demonstram as deficiências diante da integração, mais ainda a importância de ações nesse sentido, de dignificar com o ato de participação ativa
A NORMATIVIDADE NA EPISTEMOLOGIA NATURALIZADA DE QUINE
No full textDefendo nesse artigo que a “Epistemologia Naturalizada” de Quine preserva uma dimensão normativa. Sustento, ao contrário da interpretação eliminacionista predominante até recentemente, que Quine não eliminou as investigações epistemológicas tradicionais, (a) a justificação racional das crenças e (b) a teoria da prova, da epistemologia naturalizada. Sustento que a naturalização Quineana apenas mudou a natureza da justificação epistemológica, que passou a operar a partir das conclusões da ciência natural. A circularidade, o falibilismo e o começo in mediss rebus da ciência determinam a forma da justificação epistemológica naturalizada. Quine adota um projeto epistemológico explanatório cuja principal tarefa consiste em explicar a assimetria epistêmica entre informação sensorial e teoria científica, a partir das próprias conclusões da ciência natural. Defendo que o papel fundamental da normatividade na epistemologia naturalizada consiste na avaliação crítica e correção do método científico. 
QUANDO UM ALUNO DESAFIA SEU MESTRE: : A RECEPÇÃO DE GENTZ À PAZ PERPÉTUA
No full textThis study first reconstructs the historical context of Friedrich Gentz\u27s reception as a student at the Albertina University of Königsberg, facilitated by the intervention of his father and Mendelssohn. Second, it examines Friedrich Gentz\u27s reception of Kant\u27s Towards Perpetual Peace, particularly through the evaluation of a set of alternatives to a peaceful world order. It is assumed here that the first version of the third alternative reflects Kant\u27s vision in Perpetual Peace, and consequently, in the third and final part, an attempt is made to at least address the objection that Kant\u27s proposal is merely a chimera and nothing more, taking into consideration the third part of Kant\u27s essay On the Common Saying.Este estudo reconstrói, primeiramente, o contexto histórico da recepção de Friedrich Gentz como estudante na Universidade de Albertina de Königsberg através da intervenção do pai dele e de Mendelssohn; em segundo, a recepção de Friedrich Gentz à obra de Kant À paz perpétua, particularmente através da avaliação de um conjunto de alternativas a uma ordem mundial pacífica. Se pressupõe aqui que a primeira versão da terceira alternativa é a visão de Kant em À paz perpétua e, como consequência disso, em terceiro e último lugar, se procura oferecer alguma resposta ao menos à objeção que a proposta de Kant é apenas uma quimera e nada mais do que isso considerando também a terceira parte do opúsculo Sobre a expressão corrente de Kant
Direito, Complexidade e Paradoxo: observações sobre as Audiências de Custódia enquanto Institutos Simbólicos no Ordenamento Jurídico Brasileiro
Get PDFAs audiências de custódia se comportam como institutos que se pautam na prevenção de prisões ilegais e garantia aos direitos dos acusados, com raízes no antigo saber das sociedades hierárquicas. Disso, cabe questionar: as audiências de custódia funcionam como institutos que organizam a complexidade do sistema prisional ou têm apenas uma função simbólica?Para explorar essas questões, utiliza-se o método observacional-estrutural-construtivista-funcional, fundamentada nos pressupostos teóricos de Niklas Luhmann e Raffaele De Giorgi, com abordagem qualitativae bibliográfica. Conclui-se que as audiências de custódia, apesar do propósito inicial, tornam-se institutos simbólicos que ampliam as complexidades existentes
Incorporation of AgVO3 into Glass Ionomer Cement: Ionic Release
Get PDFObjective: To evaluate the surface properties and ion release of a glass ionomer cement (GIC) incorporated with nanostructured silver vanadate (AgVO3). Material and Methods: Specimens were obtained with AgVO3 (1%, 2.5%, and 5%) and without nanomaterial. Charge dispersion was assessed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS). The release of silver (Ag+) and vanadium (V4+/V5+) was determined using inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS). The release of fluoride was determined using an ion-selective electrode. Data were analyzed by ANOVA and Bonferroni post-test (α=0.05). Results: Photomicrographs and EDS suggested the presence of AgVO3. The 2.5% and 5% groups showed a greater release of Ag+ (p<0.05). A greater release of V4+/V5+ was observed with 5% (p<0.05). There was a greater release of V4+/V5+ than Ag+ in the 2.5% (p=0.006) and 5% (p<0.001) groups. All groups showed a greater fluoride release on day 7 and a progressive decrease (p=0.004). On day 7, groups with 1% (p=0.036) and 2.5% (p=0.004) showed greater release than control. Conclusion: All concentration test altered the surface properties of GIC, with greater release of Ag+ and V4+ /V5+ in the group with 5%. In all groups, there was a greater release of fluoride on day 7 with a subsequent decrease. AgVO3 at concentrations of 1% and 2.5% favored fluoride release on day 7
Color Stability, Surface Roughness, and Microhardness of Resin-Based Composites After Immersion in Beverages Commonly Consumed by Children or Accelerated Artificial Aging
Get PDFObjective: To evaluate the color stability, surface roughness, and microhardness of resin-based composites (RBCs) after accelerated artificial aging (AAA) or immersion in beverages consumed by children. Material and Methods: Seventy specimens were prepared from each RBC (Z350-Z350, SS-Spectra Smart, AF-Admira Fusion, and EA-Estelite Asteria). Initial color, ∆E00, surface roughness, ∆Ra, and microhardness, ∆KHN readings were done. Specimens were separated into five groups (n=14): AAA (300 hours) and immersion (30 minutes daily/30 days) in Coca-Cola (CC), Grape juice (GJ), Chocolate milk (CM), or distilled water (DW). After the final readings, color and microhardness data were analyzed using two-way ANOVA, Tukey, and surface roughness by Kruskal-Wallis and Dunn\u27s test. Results: SS exhibited the most significant color change in AAA, which differed from CC and GJ; the minor change occurred after CM and DW, which were distinct from each other. AF did not show a difference between the treatments. All RBCs exhibited a decrease in microhardness, except for SS, after AAA and EA in CC and DW. There was no difference in the surface roughness after treatments, except for AAA, which presented a minor change for Z350 and AF, differing from the other treatments. Conclusion: The beverages didn’t alter the surface roughness but decreased the microhardness of the RBCs, except for CC, which increased the microhardness of EA
