Therefore, understanding the impact of war on the perinatal health of women is an important requisite to improve perinatal care. This narrative synthesis has two mai...n purposes: on one hand, it aims to summarize the current evidence available based on perinatal health outcomes and care among perinatal women; on the other, it attempts to identify the gaps still present in research in relation to perinatal care.

It is now clear that the goal of asthma treatment should be to achieve and maintain control of the... disease, as well as to minimize the risks (of exacerbations, disease instability, accelerated loss of lung function, and adverse treatment effects). That requires an approach that is personalized in terms of the pharmacological treatment, patient education, written action plan, training in correct inhaler use, and review of the inhaler technique at each office visit. A panel of 22 pulmonologists was invited to perform a critical review of recent evidence of pharmacological treatment of asthma and to prepare this set of recommendations, a treatment guide tailored to use in Brazil. The topics or questions related to the most significant changes in concepts, and consequently in the management of asthma in clinical practice, were chosen by a panel of experts. To formulate these recommendations, we asked each expert to perform a critical review of a topic or to respond to a question, on the basis of evidence in the literature. In a second phase, three experts discussed and structured all texts submitted by the others. That was followed by a third phase, in which all of the experts reviewed and discussed each recommendation. These recommendations, which are intended for physicians involved in the treatment of asthma, apply to asthma patients of all ages.

Desde  março  de  2020,  quando  a  Organização  Mundial  de  Saúde  declarou  que  o  mundo  vivia  uma  pandemia  de  covid-19,  acompanhamos  um  quadro  sanitário  sem  precedentes  nos  últimos  100  anos.  As  medidas  atuais  contra  a  ...doença  têm  como  objetivo  o  controle  da  transmissão  e  envolvem  ações  individuais  e  coletivas  de  higiene  e distanciamento físico, enquanto a busca por uma vacina se apresenta como a esperança para vencer a pandemia. Considerando o contexto social de clamor por uma nova vacina, este ensaio crítico discute o paradoxo  e  as  contradições  da  relação  indivíduo-sociedade no contexto da covid-19 à luz da hesitação vacinal  como  fenômeno  histórico  e  socialmente  situado.  Este  ensaio  aponta  que  as  tomadas  de  decisão sobre (não) vacinar ou sobre (não) seguir as medidas  preventivas  e  de  controle  da  propagação  da  covid-19  são  conformadas  por  pertencimentos  sociais  e  atravessadas  por  desigualdades  que  tendem  a  se  exacerbar.  A  infodemia  que  cerca  a  covid-19 e a hesitação vacinal refletem a tensão entre  o  risco  cientificamente  validado  e  o  risco  percebido subjetivamente, também influenciada pela crise de confiança na ciência. Percepções de risco  e  adesão  a  medidas  de  saúde  extrapolam  aspectos subjetivos e racionais e espelham valores e  crenças  conformados  pelas  dimensões  política,  econômica e sociocultural.
