RESUMO: Este estudo faz parte de contexto de ampliação de vagas públicas no ensino superior. Tem como objetivo descrever e analisar o perfil dos estudantes ingressantes do curso de Bacharelado e Licenciatura em Enfermagem, da Escola de Enfermagem de Ribeirão Preto/Universidade de São Paulo (EERP/USP), de 2006 a 2015, por meio de estudo de natureza exploratório-descritiva, utilizando questionário como técnica de coleta de dados, contendo dados de identificação pessoal, profissional, escolar e cultural. Os participantes foram os alunos ingressantes no curso citado, desde a primeira turma, em 2006, até o ano de 2015. A partir da análise dos dados, foram observadas mudanças no perfil de aluno ingressante no que se refere, principalmente, à faixa etária, escolaridade prévia e ingresso de trabalhadores. No contexto universitário, conhecer essas mudanças é importante para a implementação da proposta político-pedagógica desse curso.
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a common, preventable, treatable lung disease characterized by persistent respiratory symptoms and airflow limitation and multiorgan impact. This affects the nutritional status of patients and requires multidimensional interventions including nutritional interventions according to individual metabolic needs. Our scoping review determined the effects of antioxidants in the treatment of COPD patients and their role in the decrease in the probability of exacerbations, hospital readmissions, and changes in lung function. The sources MEDLINE, LILACS, and Google Scholar were consulted and 19 studies were selected. The most indicated antioxidants are N-Acetylcysteine, vitamins E and D, and Zinc. Other antioxidants from plants or fruits extracts are also being investigated. The beneficial effect of antioxidants in stable or exacerbated patients is not clear, but theoretical and biological arguments of benefit justify lines of research that specify the impact on reducing oxidative stress and negative effects in COPD.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
