Different types of high-rise residential buildings have proliferated in different countries at least since the 1940s, for a range of reasons. This paper aims to provide an overview of the current state of evidence on how planning, urban design and architectural aspects of high-rise residential buildings may influence social well-being and mental health. A systematic review following the PRISMA guidelines was conducted. Searches for peer-reviewed papers were conducted in MEDLINE, Embase, PsycInfo, Scopus, SciELO, and Web of Science; 4,100 papers were assessed. 23 empirical studies published between 1971 and 2016 were included. The review found that house type, floor level, as well as spaces intrinsic to high-rise residential buildings (e.g. shared stairwells) are associated with social well-being and mental health. However, conceptual gaps and methodological inconsistencies still characterise most of the research in this field. We expect that research about and policy attention to this subject may intensify due to its strategic relevance in the face of global challenges such as increasing urbanization and loneliness. This paper concludes by highlighting a number of recommendations for future research.

In this paper we present the results of the study of 32 projectile points from Hangar site, located in the Salado creek basin (centre of the province of Buenos Aires). Archaeological materials recovered from the site include some isolated human remains, several potsherds, faunal materials, and lithic artefacts. The presence of pottery and small triangular points, together with the radiocarbon dating results, indicate that the main occupations occurred during the end of the Late Holocene. Methodology used included the techno-typological study of the lithic assemblage. Results showed that the outcrops of some rocks present in the sample are found in the Humid Pampas (100-190 km distant from the site) and the Dry Pampas (400-530 km distant from the site). The projectile points show variability in design and size, attributes that have implications for distinguishing different weapon systems (e.g., arrow and dart). In the Pampas region, the Late Holocene is a period characterized by an increasing complexity in hunter-gatherer societies, as it is indicated by long-distance exchange networks and different strategies of intensification and diversification on faunal resources. In accordance with this scenario, we propose that the variability that is observed in the lithic points is a reflex of an increase in the amount of the hunted species in relation with technological innovations such as the introduction of the bow and arrow.

<p>En este artículo se discute el concepto de región pampeana como una unidad espacial y cultural en el análisis arqueológico y se analiza la validez y la operatividad que mantiene actualmente. Esta región fue usada como unidad de análisis en arqueología, pero fue definida con diferentes criterios y grados de resolución. En este trabajo se examinan y discuten estos criterios y su validez en la actualidad, ya que el uso de información tanto ecológica como cultural, provocó ciertas incongruencias en la forma en que se ha hecho operativo el establecimiento y la definición de los límites de la región pampeana. En suma, parece claro que lo que llamamos actualmente región pampeana en la arqueología sudamericana es una unidad espacial que no tiene una correspondencia ecológica ni cultural. Teniendo esto en cuenta, se debe concluir que el uso de la región pampeana como unidad de análisis, tal cual está definida actualmente, se basa en tradiciones de investigación y en cierto consenso contemporáneo más que en características ecológicas o arqueológicas distintivas.</p>

The role of active transport as part of daily routines, for example, has excited considerable interest for its potential for reducing pathologies associated with sedentarism, overweight and obesity, in journals and at international meetings (Lyn and Sallis, 2018). These have stimulated interest and built closer ties between researchers and practitioners. But links between transport and health go far beyond active transport, raising issues of governance, social equity, urban planning procedures and principles in "normal" and crisis conditions, as previous special issues of this journal have documented, particularly

O objetivo deste estudo foi avaliar a prevalência de microrganismos identificados em exames de citologia oncótica de mulheres em uma comunidade de Juazeiro do Norte, CE. A pesquisa utilizou laudos do período de janeiro de 2013 a julho de 2017 e contou com a análise de 443 registros. A autorização para acesso aos dados se deu através da carta de anuência e do termo de fiel depositário. Trata-se de um estudo transversal documental retrospectivo. A pesquisa utilizou 100% dos registros entre o período de janeiro de 2013 a julho de 2017 presentes no livro de registros. As informações foram agrupadas, analisadas e tabuladas com o programa Microsoft Office Excel 2010. Os resultados evidenciaram maior procura de mulheres entre 25 a 30 anos (20,1%) para a realização do exame. Em 72 laudos foram identificados microrganismos, 49 (65,3%) são referentes Gardnerella vaginalis, a maior incidência foi na faixa etária de 25 a 30 anos com 19 laudos, representando 40% dos casos de Gardnerella vaginalis. Entre os 9 (12,5%) casos de tricomoníase, 4 (44%) remetem a faixa etária de 25 a 30 anos. Candida spp. foi identificada em 7 (9,7%) amostras, sendo mais comum na faixa etária de até 18 anos, com 3 (43%) casos. O HPV esteve presente em 5 (6,9%) laudos. Desta maneira confirma-se a necessidade de ações educativas voltadas para promoção de saúde, proporcionando a compreensão sobre a importância do exame para proporcionar assim uma melhor qualidade de vida para as mulheres que integram esta comunidade.
