Loss to follow-up among participants in the real talk study: a brief motivational interview intervention to reduce teen dating violence perpetration in Boston

Velasquez, Gabriela Elizabeth 20 June 2016 (has links)
Loss to follow-up (LTF) is an important issue that can affect the validity of longitudinal studies. Further, LTF among adolescent study participants may be predicted by variables such as substance use, educational attainment, and demographic information. The purpose of this study was to determine if alcohol or marijuana use, high school completion, or demographic information was correlated with LTF among adolescent participants in the Real Talk Study. The Real Talk study is a randomized control trial that employs a brief motivational interview intervention in a clinical setting to reduce perpetration of teen dating violence (TDV) in Boston. Current participants of the Real Talk study who were eligible for follow up comprised the study sample (N=127). Baseline characteristics on age, gender, race/ethnicity, high school completion, alcohol use, and marijuana use were analyzed using Pearson’s Chi Square, and the level of significance set to p < 0.10. A post-hoc analysis was conducted on frequency of alcohol use using Pearson’s Chi Square. Of the total sample, 13% were LTF (n=17). The results of the analyses indicated that there was a statistically significant difference between those LTF and those retained for gender and drinking 6 or more drinks of alcohol per occasion. Females were more likely to be LTF than males (p<0.10), and those participants who responded “never” or “less than monthly” to the question, “how many times do you drink 6 or more drinks per occasion?” were more likely to be retained, or less likely to be LTF (p<0.10) than those who responded differently. While some of the results were consistent with the literature, it is also possible that the follow-up procedure for Real Talk ensured that there were minimal differences in LTF.

Pacientes com Líquen Plano Oral : estresse, enfrentamento e eficácia adaptativa /

Justi, Mirella Martins. January 2009 (has links)
Orientador: Carmen Maria Bueno Neme / Banca: Liliam D'Aquino Tavano / Banca: Tania Gracy Martins do Valle / Resumo: O Líquen Plano Oral (LPO) caracteriza-se como doença complexa e multideterminada, cujas manifestações mostram-se sensíveis à influência de variáveis biopsicossociais, devendo ser estudada e tratada de forma integrativa, conjugando conhecimentos e esforços interdisplinares. Estudos apontam que a doença é exacerbada de acordo com as condições de estresse, tensão e perturbação emocional dos portadores. Pesquisas atuais sobre o estresse e suas relações com o adoecimento, principalmente no campo da psicoimunologia, têm enfatizado que tais relações dependem de aspectos de personalidade ou modos de ser dos diferentes indivíduos, que configuram variados modos de enfrentamento dos eventos estressores, mantendo ou não os efeitos imunodepressores do estresse e incrementando ou não seu potencial patogênico. Considerando tais registros pode-se relacionar o LPO com o estresse - presente na vida moderna e, cada vez mais, indicado como o principal elemento desencadeador das "doenças da adaptação". O enfrentamento também deve ser relacionado, pois configura-se na forma como ocorre o processo de adaptação do sujeito frente às exigências da vida atual. O objetivo geral consiste em realizar estudo longitudinal de 10 pacientes com diagnóstico de LPO e que participaram de psicoterapia breve grupal e de acompanhamento do tamanho de LPO em 2003, averiguando suas condições de saúde, ocorrência de lesões de LPO, eventos de estresse, enfrentamento e eficácia adaptativa, de 2003 a 2008. Para o procedimento de coleta de dados foram utilizadas duas entrevistas (EDAO-R; Entrevista Estresse, Enfrentameto e Saúde - elaborada para o estudo), medidas atuais de LPO e registros de avaliações anteriores realizadas em 2003 e que consistiram de realização de Psicoterapia Breve Operacionalizada (PBO), aplicação da EDAO-R e coleta de medidas de LPO no início e no final da PBO...

Studies demonstrate that this disease is aggravated according to the patients' conditions of stress, tension and emotional disturbance. Present researches on stress and its relation with the condition of falling sick, mainly in the field of psychoimmunology, have emphasized that such relations are dependent of personality aspects or ways of being of different individuals, which figure several ways of confrontation of the stressful events, maintaining or not the stress immunodepressive effects and increasing or not its pathogenic potential. Considering such registers, it is possible to relate OLP to stress - present in the modern life and, more and more, indicated as the main triggering element of "adaptation diseases". Confrontation must also be related to the disease, because it figures in the way as the individual adaptation process occurs face to the requirements of the modern life. The general purpose of this paper is to accomplish a longitudinal study of 10 patients with OLP diagnosis who took part in a group brief psychotherapy and had a continuous attendance controlling the size of the OLP lesions in 2003, investigating their health conditions, OLP lesions occurrences, sress events, confrontation and adaptative efficacy from 2003 to 2008. For the procedure of data gathering, the following items were used: two interviews (EDAO-R; Stress Interview, Confrontation and Health - specially elaborated for this study), present OLP measurements and anterior evaluation registers accomplished in 2003, which consisted in the accomplishment of BPO (Brief Pssychotherapy Operacionalized), EDAO-R application and OLP...

The effect of Satir brief therapy on patients in a maternity hospital

Cohen, Bertha 31 December 2006 (has links)
As no known research has been done on Satir brief therapy in a maternity setting, an exploratory design using the case study method was used to assess whether women in a maternity hospital experience this form of therapy as beneficial. Purposive sampling was used to obtain a sample of five patients for this study. Therapeutic sessions were held with these women during their stay in hospital, and follow up sessions with four of the five women were held once they had been discharged home to evaluate their experience of the therapy. The fifth woman could not be reached after her discharge from hospital. The results indicate that the use of Satir brief therapy supports the research question and that it can therefore be used to address the psychological and social issues which can affect the mother baby dyad, thus promoting healthy mother - baby bonding. / Social Work / M.A.(Social Science)

Um novo modelo de observação para o algoritmo de Monte Carlo aplicado ao problema de localização global de VANTs sobre imagens de satélite

Mantelli, Mathias Fassini January 2017 (has links)
A cada dia novos modelos de Veículos Aéreos Não Tripulados (VANTs) estão sendo lançados no mercado para serem utilizados em diversas aplicações, tais como mapeamento de ambientes e vigilância. Geralmente, estes robôs utilizam um sensor GPS como fonte de estimativa de localização. Contudo, para um bom funcionamento, este sensor depende de um número mínimo de satélites sincronizados com ele e que o sinal emitido pelos satélites seja recebido com boa qualidade, o que pode ser considerado um fator negativo. Uma forma de contornar este problema é empregar um sistema de localização baseado em visão computacional utilizando a câmera que já está embarcada no robô e imagens de satélite como mapa. Este sistema estima a localização do VANT através de comparações entre as imagens capturadas por ele e uma imagem de satélite, buscando encontrar a sua posição nesta imagem de satélite. Neste contexto, apresentamos uma variação do descritor BRIEF, o abBRIEF, para ser utilizado em um novo modelo de observação que também está sendo proposto. O modelo de observação é responsável por medir quão parecidas são as leituras do robô com diversas partes do mapa, para estimar a sua localização correta. Devido ao grande número de comparações necessárias, é importante que o descritor utilizado no processo seja rápido, não consuma muitos recursos computacionais e seja robusto para lidar com as várias diferenças entre as imagens. O modelo proposto foi utilizado no algoritmo de Monte Carlo (Monte Carlo Localization, MCL) para realizar a localização de VANTs e apresentou resultados satisfatórios que corroboram a eficácia do modelo e do descritor. / New models of Unnamed Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) are developed on a daily basis and applied to several tasks, such as mapping terrains and surveillance. GPS sensors are usually the main source of information to estimate the robot position, however, a downside of these sensors is that a minimum number of satellites must be available and emitting high quality signals. A vision-based system can be used to overcome this problem by using a robot embedded camera and satellite images as maps. Computational vision systems estimate the UAV localization through the comparison between the robot extracted image and several parts of the satellite image. These comparisons are performed in order to localize the part of the map which is most similar to the robot perspective. Taking into account all this information, we propose BRIEF descriptor variation, called abBRIEF, to be used on a novel observation model, also proposed in this master thesis. An observation model is responsible for evaluate how similar the robot measurements and the different map parts are. The used descriptor must run fast, consume low computational resources and be robust regarding image changes, all to compensate the large number of necessary comparisons. The proposed model is applied with Monte Carlo Localization (MCL) method to the auto localization of UAVs and presented solid results that corroborate the model and descriptor efficiency.

Nesse contexto, a família desempenha papel indispensável na construção de hábitos saudáveis, e quando associado à Educação e a Saúde, tal processo passa a ser completo e mais eficaz. O breve aconselhamento parece ser uma boa estratégia para estreitar tais laços, a fim de se realizar um trabalho conjunto e melhorar hábitos das crianças. Objetivo: Verificar os efeitos de uma intervenção de BA, abordando as esferas de atividade física e alimentação saudável à família sobre a criança, com apoio de escolas públicas e a Unidade de Saúde da Família (USF). Métodos: Participaram do estudo 14 pais/responsáveis e 38 crianças entre 6 e 10 anos do EF-I estavam matriculados nas 2 escolas públicas municipais sorteadas no município do interior paulista, com proximidade de 2 USF que auxiliaram nas coletas. As crianças realizaram avaliações antropométricas mensais e responderam ao questionário em três momentos. Os pais receberam BA durante o período de 6 meses, responderam questionários de 2 em 2 meses. E professores e ACS responderam questionário no momento pré e pós. Para os dados estatísticos utilizou-se de média, desvio padrão e porcentagem, ANOVA para medidas repetidas e teste de qui-quadrado com intenção de tratar. As análises foram conduzidas por meio do software SPSS versão 21.0 e Excel 2013, com valor de p≤0,05. Ainda realizou-se análise de conteúdo para os dados qualitativos. Resultados: As crianças atingiram as diretrizes de 60 minutos de atividades moderadas a vigorosas (140,76±114,91; 138,10±114,17; 111,60±121,67) entretanto o tempo despendido em comportamento sedentário aumentou entre as coletas (103,57±136,98; 152,28± 277,38; 185,18±173,99). Os pais não atingiram as recomendações de 150 minutos de AF no lazer por semana nas coletas 2 e 3 (174,28±207,13; 135,00±190,53; 138,57±194,25) e também apresentaram níveis altos de comportamento sedentário. Em relação a alimentação saudável os resultados apontam que há uma preocupação com a mesma, entretanto observa-se uma alta ingestão de alimentos ultra processados. A parte qualitativa demonstrou que há a busca da mudança em relação a atividade física e alimentação saudável, melhorando assim a qualidade de vida dos pais e consequentemente das crianças. Na parceria entre Educação e Saúde encontrou-se dificuldades, mas observou-se uma efetividade nos momentos em que participaram. Conclusão: Os dados quantitativos apontam o papel fundamental que a família e escola exercem sobre a criança, e o mesmo é reforçado a partir dos dados qualitativos. A dificuldade na comunicação entre Educação e Saúde foi encontrada, mas nos momentos de participação demonstraram serem importantes e efetivos. Dessa forma, há indícios de que o BA à família sobre a criança, com apoio de escolas públicas e USF, parecem ser efetivas. / Childhood obesity has grown exponentially. In this context, the family plays an indispensable role in the construction of healthy habits, and when associated with Education and Health, this process becomes complete and more effective. Brief advice seems to be a good strategy to strengthen such ties in order to work together and improve children's habits. Objective: To verify the effects of a BA intervention, addressing the spheres of physical activity and healthy diet to the family on the child, with support from public schools and the Family Health Unit (USF). Methods: Participated in the study 14 parents/guardians and 38 children between 6 and 10 years of EF-I were enrolled in the 2 municipal public schools drawn in the city of the interior of São Paulo, with close to 2 USFs that assisted in the collections. The children performed monthly anthropometric assessments and answered the questionnaire in three moments. Parents received BA during the 6-month period, answered questionnaires every 2 months. And teachers and ACS answered questionnaire in the pre and post moments. For statistical data, mean, standard deviation and percentage were used, ANOVA for repeated measurements and chi-square test with intention to treat. The analyzes were conducted using software SPSS version 21.0 and Excel 2013, with a value of p≤0.05. Content analysis was also performed for qualitative data. Results: Children reached the 60-minute guidelines for moderate to vigorous activities (140,76±114,91; 138,10±114,17; 111,60±121,67), however the time spent in sedentary behavior increased among the collections (103,57±136,98; 152,28± 277,38; 185,18±173,99). The parents did not reach the recommendations of 150 minutes of AF at leisure per week in collections 2 and 3 (174,28±207,13; 135,00±190,53; 138,57±194,25), and also showed high levels of sedentary behavior. Regarding healthy eating, the results indicate that there is a concern with it, however, a high intake of ultra-processed foods is observed. The qualitative part showed that there is a search for change in relation to physical activity and healthy eating, thus improving the quality of life of parents and consequently of children. In the partnership between Education and Health there were difficulties, but an effectiveness was observed in the moments in which they participated. Conclusion: The quantitative data point out the fundamental role that the family and school play in the child, and it is reinforced from the qualitative data. The difficulty in the communication between Education and Health was found, but in the moments of participation they demonstrated to be important and effective. Thus, there are indications that the BA to the family on the child, with support from public schools and USF, appear to be effective.
