    Cleft Palate Craniofacial Journal, 2026
    Objective This study aimed to analyze the stress distribution and displacement generated by bone-borne maxillary expansion in a late adolescent with unilateral cleft lip and palate (UCLP) using finite element analysis. Design A 3-dimensional finite element model (3DFEM) was obtained from craniofacial bones and maxillary teeth. Seven 3DFEM maxillary expanders were adapted on the palatal slope with a displacement of 0.25 mm per turn. Setting The study used a computational model based on a patient's craniofacial anatomy. Patients, Participants This study included one late adolescent with UCLP. Interventions Seven different bone-borne maxillary expanders were tested, each with a displacement of 0.25 mm per turn on each side of the maxilla. Main Outcome Measure(s) The primary outcomes measured were stress distribution and displacement within the craniofacial structure. Results The highest stress and displacement were generated by devices with Temporary Anchorage Devices and occurred at the cleft side. Maximum stress was observed in the zygomatic-maxilla interface of all analyzed devices. The displacement on the transverse plane was greater in the anterior region for most devices, forward on the anteroposterior plane, and downward on the vertical plane. Conclusions Using bone-borne devices in late adolescents with UCLP might be useful for correcting transverse maxillary deficiency.

  • Incidence of palliative treatment among breast cancer patients undergoing neoadjuvant therapy: an analysis of the Brazilian public health system
    Ana Maria Fantini Silva, Breno Piva, Marco Antônio Prado Nunes
    Scientific Reports, 2025
    Breast cancer is the leading cause of cancer-related deaths among women globally, including Brazil. This study assesses neoadjuvant treatment patterns, the impact of new therapies, and factors determining palliative care for patients who failed initial treatments. A historical cohort study using secondary data from DATASUS (2008–2017) focused on women aged 18–90 with stages II and III breast cancer who received neoadjuvant treatment. Data on chemotherapy, hormonal therapy, and anti-HER2 treatment were analyzed. The Palliative Treatment Rate (PTR) was calculated by cross-referencing neoadjuvant treatment records with subsequent palliative care records, indicating cases where the initial curative intent was not achieved. The study included 71,181 patients, with a mean age of 51.5 years. Most were diagnosed at Stage III (85%). Anti-HER2 therapy was introduced in 2013, with 10.5% receiving it. The 5-year PTR decreased from 44% (2008–2012) to 36% (2013–2017). The combination of chemotherapy, endocrine therapy, and anti-HER2 therapy had the lowest PTR. Logistic regression identified younger age, higher histological grade, Stage III disease, and compromised lymph nodes as factors increasing the likelihood of needing palliative care, while HER2 positivity and hormonal therapy reduced it. Regional disparities were observed, with patients from the Southeast more likely to receive palliative care. Early diagnosis and access to anti-HER2 therapy significantly reduce palliative care needs. Socio-economic and regional disparities in treatment highlight the need for equitable access to diagnostic tools and therapies to improve survival outcomes in Brazil’s public healthcare system.

  • Association of socioeconomic indicators with COVID-19 mortality in Brazil: a population-based ecological study
    João Batista Cavalcante Filho, Marco Aurélio de Oliveira Góes, Damião da Conceição Araújo, Marcus Valerius da Silva Peixoto, Marco Antônio Prado Nunes
    Geospatial Health, 2023
    The article presents an analysis of the spatial distribution of mortality from COVID-19 and its association with socioeconomic indicators in the north-eastern region of Brazil - an area particularly vulnerable with regard to these indicators. This populationbased ecology study was carried out at the municipal level in the years 2020 and 2021, with analyses performed by spatial autocorrelation, multiple linear regression and spatial autoregressive models. The results showed that mortality from COVID-19 in this part of Brazil was higher in the most populous cities with better socioeconomic indicators. Factors such as the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic in large cities, the agglomerations existing within them, the pressure to maintain economic activities and mistakes in the management of the pandemic by the Brazilian federal Government were part of the complex scenario related to the spread of COVID-19 in the country and this study was undertaken in an attempt to understand this situation. Analysing the different scenarios is essential to face the challenges posed by the pandemic to the world’s health systems.
  • The COVID-19 Pandemic and Health Inequities in the State of Sergipe
    João Batista Cavalcante Filho, Roberto Meneses de Oliveira, Rynat Dasaev Oliveira Chagas, Marco Aurélio de Oliveira Góes, Marcus Valerius da Silva Peixoto, Marco Antônio Prado Nunes
    Mundo Da Saude, 2022
    This study analyzes the association of incidence and mortality rates by COVID-19 in the municipalities of the state of Sergipe, Brazil with indicators of social vulnerability and human development used in the country, as well as with the rate of RT-PCR exams for the diagnosis of the disease performed by each municipality. This is an ecological study of COVID-19 cases and deaths accumulated from March 2020 to March 2021, which occurred in the State of Sergipe by municipality; and its correlation with the Social Vulnerability Index (SVI), Municipal Human Development Index (MHDI), and number of RT-PCR tests performed to diagnose the disease, using Spearman's correlation (ρ). Contrary to our hypotheses and the scientific literature, municipalities with higher rates of social vulnerability and lower human development had fewer cases of the disease and deaths per inhabitant, while testing less for the diagnosis of COVID-19. The study points to inequity as a factor to be overcome in the face of the pandemic, as it impairs a proper diagnosis of the scenario closer to reality, compromising the planning and implementation of collective health measures.
  • Obesity and clinical severity in patients with COVID-19: a scoping review protocol

    Systematic Reviews, 2021
    Background Coronavirus disease (COVID-19), caused by the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 strain, was first identified in late 2019 in China. The outcomes of patients affected by the virus can worsen, developing acute respiratory failure and other serious complications, especially in older individuals and people with obesity and comorbidities. Thus, obese patients tend to have a more severe course of COVID-19. Thus, this review aims to synthesize the evidence in the literature that associates COVID-19 and the severity of clinical outcomes in infected obese patients. Methods This protocol was designed following the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses Protocols Statement. Scientific and gray literature will be systematically selected from PubMed/MEDLINE, Latin American Literature in Health Sciences, Online Scientific Electronic Library, Scopus, ScienceDirect, Web of Science, Embase, and Cochrane. The selection of articles will be limited to studies published in English, Portuguese, and Spanish from December 2019 onwards. The main clinical outcomes will be clinical severity in obese patients with COVID-19 as tachypnea (respiratory rate, ≥ 30 breaths per minute), hypoxemia (oxygen saturation, ≤ 93%), the ratio of the partial pressure of arterial oxygen to fraction of inspired oxygen (< 300), lung infiltrate (> 50% of the lung field involved within 24–48 h), diagnosis of the severe acute respiratory syndrome, need of invasive mechanical ventilation, and mortality. Two reviewers will independently screen all citations, full-text articles, and abstract data. Selection bias will be minimized by excluding studies published before December 2019. Conflicts will be resolved through a third reviewer and consensus-building. Moreover, findings will be reported using narrative synthesis and tabulation of the summaries. Discussion Given the need for early detection of the possible implications and treatment for patients with obesity diagnosed with COVID-19, the scoping review will be useful to capture the state of the current literature, identify the gaps, and make recommendations for future research for directing the conduct and optimization of therapies in these patients by the multiprofessional teams.

  • Early identification of individuals at risk for loss to follow-up of tuberculosis treatment: A generalised hierarchical analysis
    Shirley Verônica Melo Almeida Lima, Karina Conceição Gomes Machado de Araújo, Marco Antonio Prado Nunes, Carla Nunes
    Heliyon, 2021
    BACKGROUND: We characterise the loss to follow-up (locally termed abandoned) of tuberculosis treatment with individual and ecological health determinants and to identify the predictive capacity of these risk factors. METHODS: A cohort study with individual and ecological characterisation of patients diagnosed with tuberculosis in Sergipe/Brazil from 2015 to 2018 with either loss to follow-up or completion of treatment as a therapeutic outcome was performed. The examined variables were based on the social determinants of health with descriptive analysis, binary logistic regression, a generalised hierarchical model and graphical presentation using a nomogram. RESULTS: The loss to follow-up accounted for 18.21% of the 2,449 studied cases. The characteristics revealed that the highest abandonment percentages were people who: were male (20.0%), had black skin colour (20.3%), were aged 20-39 years (21.8%), had 4-7 years of schooling (23.6%), re-entered treatment after abandonment (36.5%), used alcohol (31.0%), used drugs (39.3%), were smokers (26.5%) and were homeless (55.4%). The ecological characteristics showed that individuals living in municipalities with a high human development index (HDI; odds ratio [OR]: 1.91) and high-income inequality (OR: 1.81) had a greater chance of not finishing the treatment. Most of these variables were identified as predictors in the generalised hierarchical model; the receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) curve had 0.771 precision and 84.0% accuracy. CONCLUSION: The group of identified characteristics influenced the loss to follow-up of tuberculosis treatment. This data provides evidence for the early identification of individuals who are at greater risk of abandoning tuberculosis treatment.
  • Trends in prostate cancer incidence and mortality to monitor control policies in a northeastern Brazilian state

    Plos One, 2021
    Prostate cancer differently affects different regions of the world, displaying higher rates in more developed areas. After the implementation of prostate-specific antigen (PSA) testing, several studies described rising rates globally, but it is possible that indolent lesions are being detected given the lack of changes in mortality data. The Brazilian government recommends against PSA screening in the male population regardless of age, but the Urology Society issued a report recommending that screening should start at 50 years old for certain men and for those aged ≥75 years with a life expectancy exceeding 10 years. In this study, we examined the incidence and mortality rates of invasive prostate cancer over time in the Sergipe state of Brazil. The databases of the Aracaju Cancer Registry and Mortality Information System were used to calculate age-standardized rates for all prostate tumors (International Classification of Diseases 10th edition: C61 and D07.5) in the following age ranges: 20–44, 45–54, and ≥65 years. We identified 3595 cases of cancer, 30 glandular intraepithelial high-grade lesions, and 3269 deaths. Using the Joinpoint Regression Program, we found that the incidence of prostate cancer dramatically increased over time until the mid-2000s for all age groups, after which the rates declined. Prostate cancer mortality rates increased until 2005, followed by a non-significant annual percent change of 22.0 in 2001–2005 and a stable rate thereafter. We noticed that the increases and decreases of the incidence rates of prostate cancer were associated with the screening recommendations. Meanwhile, the increased mortality rates did not appear to be associated with decreased PSA testing; instead, they were linked to the effects of age and improvements in identification of the cause of death. Thus, we do not believe a PSA screening program would benefit the population of this study.
