Congenital syphilis: A sentinel event in antenatal care quality

  • Autores: Domingues RMSM, Hartz ZMA, Leal MD, Saraceni V
  • Ano de Publicação: 2013
  • Journal: Revista de Saúde Pública
  • Link: http://www.scielosp.org/scielo.php?pid=S0034-89102013000100019&script=sci_arttext&tlng=en

A cross-sectional study was designed to be representative of low-risk pregnancies in women cared for at the Brazilian Unified Health System (SUS) network in the city of Rio de Janeiro, from November 2007 to July 2008. Pregnant women diagnosed with syphilis were identified through interviews, checking their antenatal care card and searching for reported cases in the public health information systems. Cases of congenital syphilis were sought at the disease reporting system (Sinam), the Mortality Information System (SIM) and the SUS’s Hospital Information System (SIH).

From multidrug-resistant to extensively drug-resistant tuberculosis in Lisbon, Portugal: The stepwise mode of resistance acquisition

  • Autores: Couto I, Jordao L, Macedo R, Machado D, Perdigão J, Portugal I, Silva C, Viveiros M
  • Ano de Publicação: 2013
  • Journal: Journal of Antimicrobial Chemotherapy
  • Link: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/23054995

The development and transmission of extensively drug-resistant (XDR) tuberculosis (TB) constitutes a serious threat to the effective control of TB in several countries. Here, in an attempt to further elucidate the dynamics of the acquisition of resistance to second-line drugs and investigate an eventual role for eis promoter mutations in aminoglycoside resistance, we have studied a set of multidrug-resistant (MDR)/XDR-TB isolates circulating in Lisbon, Portugal.

  • Link: http://www.scielo.br/scielo.php?pid=S0037-86822013000300265&script=sci_arttext

Ticks are obligate haematophagous ectoparasites of wild and domestic animals as well as humans, considered to be second worldwide to mosquitoes as vectors of human diseases. Tick-borne diseases are responsible worldwide for great economic losses in terms of mortality and morbidity of livestock animals. This review concerns to the different tick and tick-parasites control methods having a major focus on vaccines.
