“…This study showed that women with restricted social support presented an increase in symptoms of exhaustion, sadness and anxiety, which should be taken into consideration because, sometimes, emotional complaints tend to be neglected in behalf of other health demands (4). It is worth mentioning that HiV exposed children depend on the care, most often from their mothers, for the continuity of VT prophylaxis.…”

“…The results showed that women less satisfied with social support were mothers and were about seven times more likely to present a set of symptoms, the most cited being tiredness and sadness, which can characterize suspicion of mental disorder. This research also showed that the main sources of social support were their spouses and children (4). In addition, health professionals were the least mentioned sources of support, although they are the ones that should incorporate in their assistance the type of listening that surpasses clinical aspects, including emotional and family issues, considering that there are situations in which the social support from family members with whom the women live is scarce.…”

“…In view of the above, continuous treatment is important and, to that end, necessary to minimize obstacles related to social stigma, discrimination and prejudice (1,3), which can be faced with the help of sources of social support, thus reducing the negative effects of stressful events. The support from family and friends is considered a health protection factor, as it encourages selfcare and helps women to feel more stimulated to continue their lives with a chronic condition (4).…”

“…The concept of social support can be defined as the "information that leads the individual to believe that they are cared for, loved, esteemed and that they belong to a social network with mutual duties" (5, p. 300). Therefore, social support lies within the personal dimension and is composed of members of a social network with common rights and duties (4).…”

Objective: To assess whether the social support perceived by pregnant women with HIV is different from that observed by puerperal women also with HIV. Method: The study had a quantitative approach and a cross-sectional design. It was developed from April to November 2014 in southern Brazil with 78 participants. The Social Support Scale for people living with HIV/AIDS was applied. In addition, descriptive analysis, T-test, Fisher’s exact test, and linear logistic regression were performed. Results: There was a significant difference in total and instrumental social support scores, which show that the group of pregnant women report higher social support rates. Puerperal women are 8.8 times more likely to have low total social support (OR: 8.80; IC: 1.01-16.76) and 6.0 times more likely to have low instrumental social support (OR: 6.00; IC: 1.53-10.48). The level of satisfaction with the support from friends in the emotional (p =0.009) and instrumental (p =0.004) dimensions was low. It was evidenced that beingpregnant is a protective factor in comparison with being a puerperal woman. Conclusions: Puerperal women living with HIV are dissatisfied with the social support they perceive, which involves the clinical practice of health professionals. Therefore, health professionals must qualify health care in a way that includes the social dimension of this type of patients.

BackgroundAlthough most freshwater planarias are well known photonegative organisms, their diel rhythms have never been quantified. Differences in daily activity rhythms may be particularly important for temperate-climate, freshwater planarias, which tend to overlap considerably in spatial distribution and trophic requirements.MethodsActivity of stress-free, individually tested young adults of three common planarian species was recorded at 3-h intervals in a 10-d experiment under natural sunlight and photoperiod during autumnal equinox (D:L ~12:12). Individual activity status was averaged over the 10-d experiment, each tested individual thus serving as a true replicate. Twelve individuals per species were tested. Food was provided every 36 h, resulting in alternating day- and nighttime feeding events. Activity during the first post-feeding h was recorded and analyzed separately. Statistical procedures included ANOVAs, correlations, and second-order analyses of angles.ResultsDugesia (= Girardia) tigrina Girard 1850 exhibited clear nocturnal behavior, Dugesia (= Schmidtea) polychroa Schmidt 1861 was predominantly but not exclusively nocturnal, and Polycelis tenuis Ijima 1884 was relatively more active from midnight through noon. Species-specific activity peaks were statistically similar, with peaks at dawn for P. tenuis and just before midnight for the two dugesiids; however, D. tigrina was comparatively more active in the early night hours, while D. polychroa was more active than D. tigrina during daytime. D. tigrina also responded less readily to daytime food addition. P. tenuis remained poorly active and unresponsive throughout the experiment. Individual variability in diel behavior was highest for D. polychroa and lowest for D. tigrina. P. tenuis's general low degree of activity and late activity peak in the experiment may be related to a strong reliance on external stimuli.ConclusionsThe tested species are mainly nocturnal, consistent with their photonegative characteristics. The fine-scale differences in diel behavior among these three triclad species may not be sufficient to allow coexistence in the wild, with the nonnative D. tigrina eventually displacing D. polychroa and P. tenuis in many European waters. The link between planarian diel rhythms and ecological characteristics are worth of further, detailed investigation.
