Recomendações da OMS sobre cuidados maternos e neonatais para uma experiência pós-natal positiva.
Em consonância com os ODS – Objetivos do Desenvolvimento Sustentável e a Estratégia Global para a Saúde das Mulheres, Crianças e Adolescentes, e aplicando uma abordagem baseada nos direitos humanos, os esforços de cuidados pós-natais devem expandir-se para além da cobertura e da simples sobrevivência, de modo a incluir cuidados de qualidade.
Estas diretrizes visam melhorar a qualidade dos cuidados pós-natais essenciais e de rotina prestados às mulheres e aos recém-nascidos, com o objetivo final de melhorar a saúde e o bem-estar materno e neonatal.
Uma “experiência pós-natal positiva” é um resultado importante para todas as mulheres que dão à luz e para os seus recém-nascidos, estabelecendo as bases para a melhoria da saúde e do bem-estar a curto e longo prazo. Uma experiência pós-natal positiva é definida como aquela em que as mulheres, pessoas que gestam, os recém-nascidos, os casais, os pais, os cuidadores e as famílias recebem informação consistente, garantia e apoio de profissionais de saúde motivados; e onde um sistema de saúde flexível e com recursos reconheça as necessidades das mulheres e dos bebês e respeite o seu contexto cultural.
Estas diretrizes consolidadas apresentam algumas recomendações novas e já bem fundamentadas sobre cuidados pós-natais de rotina para mulheres e neonatos que recebem cuidados no pós-parto em unidades de saúde ou na comunidade, independentemente dos recursos disponíveis.
É fornecido um conjunto abrangente de recomendações para cuidados durante o período puerperal, com ênfase nos cuidados essenciais que todas as mulheres e recém-nascidos devem receber, e com a devida atenção à qualidade dos cuidados; isto é, a entrega e a experiência do cuidado recebido. Estas diretrizes atualizam e ampliam as recomendações da OMS de 2014 sobre cuidados pós-natais da mãe e do recém-nascido e complementam as atuais diretrizes da OMS sobre a gestão de complicações pós-natais.
O estabelecimento da amamentação e o manejo das principais intercorrências é contemplada.
Recomendamos muito.
Vamos discutir essas recomendações no nosso curso de pós-graduação em Aleitamento no Instituto Ciclos.

Introduction
Many have been interested in Tom Selleck health. not only because of his enduring presence on screen but also because of the challenges. and lifestyle choices he has faced and made over the years. This article delves into the various aspects of Tom Selleck health. exploring his fitness regimen, diet, mental health. and the challenges he has encountered as he ages. We'll look at how he maintains his well-being. the health issues he has faced, and his approach to ageing .
Early Life and Career
Childhood and Athletic Beginnings
Tom Selleck was born on January 29, 1945, in Detroit, Michigan, and grew up in Sherman Oaks, California. From an early age, he was involved in sports, particularly basketball. which played a significant role in his physical development. His athletic pursuits continued into college. where he attended the University of Southern California (USC) on a basketball scholarship. This early involvement in sports laid a strong foundation for his physical health and disciplined lifestyle.
Transition to Acting
Selleck's transition from an athlete to an actor came with its physical demands. His first significant role in "Magnum P.I." required him to perform various stunts and maintain a fit appearance. This role, which he played from 1980 to 1988. necessitated a rigorous fitness routine to meet the show's demands. setting the stage for his long-term commitment to health and wellness.
Fitness Regimen
Workout Routine
Tom Selleck health and fitness regimen has evolved. adapting to his changing roles and age. During his "Magnum, P.I." days. Selleck's workouts were intense and focused on building and maintaining muscle mass. His routine included weightlifting, cardiovascular exercises. and specific training for the stunts he performed on the show.
Selleck adjusted his fitness routine as he aged to suit his body's needs. Today, his workouts focus on maintaining flexibility, strength, and cardiovascular health. He incorporates low-impact exercises such as swimming, walking, and light weightlifting. This balanced approach helps him stay fit without putting undue strain on his joints and muscles.
Importance of Flexibility and Mobility
In recent years, Selleck has emphasized the importance of flexibility and mobility in his fitness regimen. Understanding the natural decline in muscle mass and joint flexibility with age. he includes stretching and yoga in his routine. These practices help prevent injuries, improve posture, and maintain mobilit

Ethanol (CH3CH2OH), or beverage alcohol, is a two-carbon alcohol
that is rapidly distributed in the body and brain. Ethanol alters many
neurochemical systems and has rewarding and addictive properties. It
is the oldest recreational drug and likely contributes to more morbidity,
mortality, and public health costs than all illicit drugs combined. The
5th edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders
(DSM-5) integrates alcohol abuse and alcohol dependence into a single
disorder called alcohol use disorder (AUD), with mild, moderate,
and severe subclassifications (American Psychiatric Association, 2013).
In the DSM-5, all types of substance abuse and dependence have been
combined into a single substance use disorder (SUD) on a continuum
from mild to severe. A diagnosis of AUD requires that at least two of
the 11 DSM-5 behaviors be present within a 12-month period (mild
AUD: 2–3 criteria; moderate AUD: 4–5 criteria; severe AUD: 6–11 criteria).
The four main behavioral effects of AUD are impaired control over
drinking, negative social consequences, risky use, and altered physiological
effects (tolerance, withdrawal). This chapter presents an overview
of the prevalence and harmful consequences of AUD in the U.S.,
the systemic nature of the disease, neurocircuitry and stages of AUD,
comorbidities, fetal alcohol spectrum disorders, genetic risk factors, and
pharmacotherapies for AUD.

Lung Cancer: Artificial Intelligence, Synergetics, Complex System Analysis, S...Oleg Kshivets
RESULTS: Overall life span (LS) was 2252.1±1742.5 days and cumulative 5-year survival (5YS) reached 73.2%, 10 years – 64.8%, 20 years – 42.5%. 513 LCP lived more than 5 years (LS=3124.6±1525.6 days), 148 LCP – more than 10 years (LS=5054.4±1504.1 days).199 LCP died because of LC (LS=562.7±374.5 days). 5YS of LCP after bi/lobectomies was significantly superior in comparison with LCP after pneumonectomies (78.1% vs.63.7%, P=0.00001 by log-rank test). AT significantly improved 5YS (66.3% vs. 34.8%) (P=0.00000 by log-rank test) only for LCP with N1-2. Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: phase transition (PT) early-invasive LC in terms of synergetics, PT N0—N12, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells- CC and blood cells subpopulations), G1-3, histology, glucose, AT, blood cell circuit, prothrombin index, heparin tolerance, recalcification time (P=0.000-0.038). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and PT early-invasive LC (rank=1), PT N0—N12 (rank=2), thrombocytes/CC (3), erythrocytes/CC (4), eosinophils/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), segmented neutrophils/CC (8), stick neutrophils/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10); leucocytes/CC (11). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (area under ROC curve=1.0; error=0.0).
CONCLUSIONS: 5YS of LCP after radical procedures significantly depended on: 1) PT early-invasive cancer; 2) PT N0--N12; 3) cell ratio factors; 4) blood cell circuit; 5) biochemical factors; 6) hemostasis system; 7) AT; 8) LC characteristics; 9) LC cell dynamics; 10) surgery type: lobectomy/pneumonectomy; 11) anthropometric data. Optimal diagnosis and treatment strategies for LC are: 1) screening and early detection of LC; 2) availability of experienced thoracic surgeons because of complexity of radical procedures; 3) aggressive en block surgery and adequate lymph node dissection for completeness; 4) precise prediction; 5) adjuvant chemoimmunoradiotherapy for LCP with unfavorable prognosis.

• Nucleosides are formed by joining a sugar and a nitrogenous base.
• Nucleotides are molecules formed by joining phosphoric acid to a
nucleoside.
Nucleotide
Phosphoric acid
Nucleoside
6. • Building blocks of Nucleic Acids.
• Donnors of phosphates groups (ATP).
• ATP is also the universal currency of free energy in Biological Systems.
• Structural components of complex biomolecules such as NADH, FADH2,
Coenzyme A, etc.
• Covalently bound, activate some precursors in biosynthesis of biomolecules
(UDP-Glucose, CDP- Choline, etc).
• Acting as an intracellular second messengers (cAMP, cGMP)
• As carriers of sugars, that are made available through the action of nucleoside
phosphorylases when suitable carbon and energy sources are not available

12. DNA > The double helix model of DNA/Biological
meaning of the double helix
• The DNA molecule twists to shrink the spaces between the hydrophobic bases on
the inside. The spiral shape discourages water from flowing between them, these
bases twist slightly in order to maximize their hydrophobic interactions with each
other, and it is this twisting of the stacked bases that gives rise to a helix
• Two factors are mainly responsible for the stability of the DNA double helix: base
pairing between complementary strands and stacking force.
• The stacking force attracts the bases above and below each other on the
same strand
• Hydrogen bonds in a DNA molecule also contribute greatly to the stability of
the double helix
13. DNA > The double helix model of DNA
GROOVES
• The surface of the double
helix contains two grooves of
unequal width.
• These two grooves are called
the major and minor groove
based on their sizes.
• Most protein–DNA contacts
are made in the major groove,
because the minor groove is
too narrow. The distance between two base pairs is 0.34 nanometers. The length of one turn of
the double-helix is 3.4 nanometers and 10 bases per turn of helix . The width of the
DNA molecule is 2 nanometers
15. DNA > Association of DNA with proteins/Histones
• The DNA (~3b) inside a human cell is packed into
the nucleus to occupy only 10% of the total cellular
volume.
• For such efficient packing, DNA needs to be folded
into higher-order structures.
• The step by step packing of DNA is carried out by
specialized proteins, the most abundant of which
are called histones.
• Histones are small proteins with a high positive
charge (they contain many lysine and arginine
residues), which helps the histones bind tightly to
DNA
• Eight histone proteins form a disc or “histone core”,
around which 146 DNA base pairs wrap; this is the
fundamental packing unit and is known as the
nucleosome

or “beads on a
string”
19. RNA >Structure and properties
Eukaryotic RNAs are single
stranded polynucleotides, some
of them form well-defined
secondary and tertiary
structures.
RNAs do not have thymine,
instead, they contain Uridine.
The presence of 2’ OH makes
“most” of these molecules
unstable.
20. RNA > Types of RNA/ General structure and
functions
o mRNA - messenger RNA - is a "copy" of the
DNA base sequence of a gene. It is used to
transfer the genetic information from DNA,
which is a storage molecule and quite
inaccessible, to ribosomes
o 5’ cap added – This helps with mRNA
attachment to the ribosome and
protects from exonucleases
(degradation).
o Poly-A tail – helps it get out of nucleus
and protect RNA from degradation.
21. RNA > Types of RNA/ General structure and
functions
o tRNA – transfer RNAs bring the
necessary amino acids corresponding
to the appropriate mRNA codon.
o Molecules of tRNA are not identical
o Each carries a specific amino acid on one end
o Each has an anticodon on the other end; the
anticodon base-pairs with a complementary
codon on mRNA
o A tRNA molecule consists of a single RNA
strand that is about 80 nucleotides long
o Because of hydrogen bonds, tRNA actually
twists and folds into a three-dimensional
molecule
o tRNA contains modified bases.
22. RNA > Types of RNA/ General structure and
functions
o rRNA - Ribosomal RNA is a component of the
ribosome, the protein manufacturing machinery
of all living cells.
o Ribosomal RNA provides two functions in the
protein factory
o Decoding mRNA, a function that is carried
buy the small subunit
o Peptidyl transferase activity, carried by the
big subunit
23. o snRNA - small nuclear RNA - regulates and provides the catalytic machinery
for splicing mRNA.
o gRNA - guide RNA - directs editing of RNA to specific sites.
o miRNA - micro RNA - inhibits translation by base pairing with complementary
sequences of mRNA.
o Signal Recognition Particle - RNA/protein molecule that binds to the
"Signal Sequence" on polypeptides to be sent to the endoplasmic reticulum.
