In this work, the fundamental data will be placed as logically as possible within a simple, but not simplistic philosophy, therefore, the objective was to indicate the basic ontogenetic and phylogenetic data in terms of the evolutionary history of the vertebrate skull starting from the initial, often idealized, structures that formed the framework of the primitive vertebrate skull. Therefore, the methodology used was a literature review, in order to refine the information. From this methodology, the expected result was to reduce the excess or oversimplification of information that could fail in the teaching processes, to avoid the danger of errors of the interpretation. An overview with basic data, but well ordered in terms of substitutions and phylogenetic history is essential to prepare future scientists in the areas of morphology, taxonomy, evolution, comparative anatomy, paleontology, forensic anatomy; therefore, this text was builded objectively as possible to be consulted for the teaching/learning of the cranium comparative anatomy.
In this review, we combined studies that evaluated the relationship between sleep during the pandemic and the increased incidence of mental disorders, primarily anxiety disorders, since outbreaks of infectious diseases are associated with triggering psychological distress and changes in the quality and quantity of sleep. Method: This study used an integrative review to critically and coherently analyze the changes resulting from COVID-19 in sleep and mental health. For this purpose, a review of the last 5 years was carried out in the LILACS, Scielo, and Pubmed databases using the descriptors “sleep”, “sleep disorders”, “anxiety”, “epidemics”, “pandemics” and “COVID-19". Final Considerations: In short, during the pandemic, serious alterations in the biological rhythm, and chronotype of sleep habits of university students, health professionals, and the population in general, with an intense prevalence of anxiety disorder. Thus, this study suggests that the psychological impact of quarantine is broad, substantial, and can be long-lasting. In addition, the need for more research focusing on this theme was evident, to identify the obstacles and consequences of social restriction and thus develop effective strategies that improve the quality and quantity of sleep and the mental health of the population.
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.
