Metodology: This randomized cross-over trial included 54 couples (108 adult individuals). Participants were asked to evaluate acceptability measures of both types of condoms using the Visual Analogue Scale. We developed a three-level hierarchical model [level 1= three repeated measures (wave, type of condom); level 2= individual (gender, age); level 3= couple (sequence of presentation of female versus external condom)]. Results: The "ease of use" dimension represented the biggest difference between the types of condoms for men (Hedges 'g = 0.96; p <0.0001) and women (Hedges' g = 1.62; p <0.0001). Regardless of gender, external condoms performed better (1.61; 95% HPD = 1.41 – 1.81). Men gave lower scores in general (-0.62; 95% HPD = -1.16 − -0.10). Conclusion: The external condom scored better than the internal cond...

However, such differences should be further scrutinised. We aimed to apply the Blinder–Oaxaca method in order to investigate potential sex-related disparities in the time from onset of symptoms to upscale assistance in ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) patients transferred to referential hospitals. All public and private hospitals with 24/7 PCI facilities in the state were included, and 1077 STEMI individuals were prospectively enrolled. We applied the Blinder–Oaxaca decomposition for the predictive model. The study included socioeconomic, clinical and geographic predictors. In ‘crude’ comparison under Student’s t-test, the logarithm of the total time was longer for female than male, reaching a difference of 0.22. In the Blinder–Oaxaca adjusted model, women presented higher total time than men. The total difference was 0.248 (95...

Se realizó un estudio cualitativo, consistentes en revisión de fuentes bibliográficas y relato de observaciones en un proyecto de Atención Social a Mujeres prostituidas de una Organización No Gubernamental (ONG) de España con oficina en Sevilla. Se procedió a realizar el trabajo de campo entre el abril y mayo de 2017 y se utilizó un cuaderno de campo para el registro de la información, la muestra fue compuesta por 15 participantes que cumplieron criterios de elegibilidad. Las mujeres en situación de prostitución atendidas por la ONG proceden de entornos de pobreza estructural, lugares donde faltan los recursos básicos, de lugares en conflicto o donde han sufrido violencia. No obstante, la prostitución profundiza aún más esta situación. La condición femenina marcada por la mala situación económica se consideró, en est...

This is an epidemiological study, based on aggregate data obtained in population strata, and associated with the use of spatial analysis methodologies, including data of organization of the Sergipe territory by obtaining coordinates of the health regions in "shapefile" format. For the predictive model, a negative binomial multiple regression analysis was used. Among the predictors for mortality due to hypertension, those with the highest rates were females, brown skin color, age group, and the Propriá Health Region. This region is in the Lower São Francisco area, where it is found a concentration of municipalities with low ranks of the index of social vulnerability. The analysis provides a reflection on the influence of socioeconomic issues on the burden of hypertensive disease.

Trata-se de uma pesquisa exploratória e descritiva, com abordagem quali-quantitativa, realizada com usuárias nas sedes das sete regionais de saúde deste estado. Foram realizadas entrevistas semiestruturadas e técnica de grupo focal, com amostra por conveniência de 840 mulheres de 25 a 59 anos de idade que realizaram o exame Papanicolau. Foi realizada distribuição de frequências dos dados quantitativos e a análise de conteúdo apontou cinco categorias: acesso e dificuldades para realização do Papanicolau; técnicas de captação de público-alvo; estrutura para encaminhamento; abrangência das secretarias; aspectos comportamentais das mulheres; e orientações ao público-alvo quanto à prevenção de colo uterino. A análise qualitativa demonstrou divergências entre os relatos das usuárias quanto ao acesso e dific...
