  • Autores: Barros PP, Gonçalves L, Perelman J, Pires CA, Russo G
  • Ano de Publicação: 2017
  • Journal: BMC Health Services Research
  • Link: https://bmchealthservres.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.1186/s12913-017-2151-1%20

Evidence is accumulating on the impact of the recent economic crisis on health and health systems across Europe.

Determinants, Health Problems, and Food Insecurity in Urban Areas of the Largest City in Cape Verde

  • Autores: Alves D, Amado M, Correia A, Craveiro I, Delgado AP, Fortes AT, Gonçalves L, Santos Z
  • Ano de Publicação: 2016
  • Journal: International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health
  • Link: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5129365/

Urbanization processes are intertwined with nutritional transition because there is easier access to food of low nutritional quality at reduced prices, changing dietary patterns and leading to an increase of non-communicable chronic diseases. This study aims to understand the perceptions for high blood pressure, obesity, and alcoholism, describing some interactions of these dimensions in the […]

Sequencing of E2 and NS5A regions of HCV genotype 3a in Brazilian patients with chronic hepatitis

  • Autores: Azevedo RS, Carrilho FJ, Gonçalves L, Malta Fde M, Medeiros-Filho JE, Pinho JR, Silva LC

Hepatitis C virus (HCV) is a major cause of liver disease throughout the world. The NS5A and E2 proteins of HCV genotype 1 were reported to inhibit the double-stranded (ds) RNA-dependent protein kinase (PKR), which is involved in the cellular antiviral response induced by interferon (IFN). The response to IFN therapy is quite different between […]

Feminization of the medical workforce in low-income settings; findings from surveys in three African capital cities

  • Autores: Craveiro I, Dussault G, Gonçalves L, Russo G
  • Ano de Publicação: 2015
  • Journal: Human Resources for Health
  • Link: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/26228911

BACKGROUND Women represent an increasingly growing share of the medical workforce in high-income countries, with abundant research focusing on reasons and implications of the phenomenon. Little evidence is available from low- and middle-income countries, which is odd given the possible repercussion this may have for the local supply of medical services and, ultimately, for attaining […]
