“…The SINAN data contain varied information that mirrors the epidemiological and operational indicators used for local, state, and national evaluations. And for this information to be effectively useful for monitoring the actions in the surveillance system, it must be faithful to the original, with no incompleteness, inconsistencies or duplicities in the records 33 .…”

“…This process was the basis for the consolidation, at the national and state levels, of technical and operational bases that enabled the future development of actions of great impact on the control of diseases preventable by immunization. The main success related to this effort was the control of poliomyelitis in Brazil in the 1980s, which opened perspectives for the eradication of the disease in the American continent, finally achieved in 1994 1 .…”

“…In 1977, the Ministry of Health prepared the first Manual of Epidemiological Surveillance, gathering and making compatible the technical norms that were then used for the surveillance of each disease in the scope of specific control programs . 1 The Unified Health System (SUS) incorporated the SNVE, defining in its legal text (Law No. 8080/90), epidemiological surveillance as "a set of actions that provide knowledge, detection, or prevention of any change in the determining and conditioning factors of individual or collective health, in order to recommend and adopt measures to prevent and control diseases or illnesses.…”

The Sistema de Informação de Agravos de Notificação (SINAN) was developed with the objective of collecting, transmitting and disseminating data routinely generated by the Epidemiological Surveillance System (SVE), especially for compulsorily notifiable diseases, including tuberculosis (TB). TB is a health emergency, according to the WHO, in Brazil it is considered a public health problem, and the municipality of Uruguaiana is a priority for combating TB in the state of Rio Grande do Sul (RS). Objective: to evaluate the Tuberculosis Surveillance System (SVT) in relation to data quality and representativeness of the information system, in Uruguaiana/RS, in the period 2019-2020. Methodology: A cross-sectional descriptive study was conducted to evaluate the data quality (consistency) and representativeness of the non-nominal SINAN database, with the aid of EpiInfo7™ software. Results: 76 notifications were found in the year 2019 and 74 in the year 2020, which pointed to an excellent completeness of the mandatory items of SINAN, and regular completeness of the essential items. Regarding representativeness, it showed that it has a greater male coverage, with age ± 41 years. Regarding the complementary data, it showed the predominance of pulmonary TB and its relations with HIV co-infection, population deprived of freedom and smokers, individuals susceptible to infections by the bacillus. Conclusion: The monitoring of the attributes should be continuous, and the results may assist in the decision-making of health surveillance and managers.

OXYGEN IN THE COVID-19 CONTEXT: WHAT WE KNOW ABOUT THE MOLECULE WE BREATHE AND THE CENTRAL ROLE OF CHEMISTRY. In this work, the role of chemistry in the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic is highlighted through the medical oxygen supply crises in Brazil, as an example of oxygen utility in health. Starting from oxygen chemical characterization, the oxygen cycle in nature is discussed to show how oxygen is formed through photosynthesis, followed by the description of the industrial oxygen production from atmospheric air, including physical-chemical aspects. The use of medical oxygen concentrator is presented and how this device works from the chemical point of view. Besides, the noninvasive and painless oximetry is described in terms of how oxygen saturation level in blood is measured using LED - light emitting diode.

Antibiotics are present in the environment, primarily due to their release through wastewater treatment plants, agricultural practices, and improper disposal of unused medications. In the environment, these drugs can be bioaccumulated by organisms and transferred along the food chain. This is a problem when considering the consumption of fish meat. In the United States, legislation stipulates that the maximum residue limit for sulfadiazine (SDZ) should not exceed 100 μg kg−1. Lambari fishes have potential economic importance in aquaculture, as they are relatively easy to breed and can be raised in small-scale operations. Finally, studying the biology and ecology of lambari could provide valuable information about freshwater ecosystems and their inhabitants. The current work aimed to measure the bioaccumulation and depletion of the antibiotic SDZ 14C in lambari (Astyanax bimaculatus). For this purpose, the tests were divided into two stages; seven days of exposure and seven days of depletion, where one fish was randomly selected and sampled every day. In the exposure phase, the fish were fed the medicated feed three times a day at a concentration of 2.5 mg·g−1. The control fish were fed uncontaminated feed. For the depletion phase, the remaining lambari were transferred to clean tanks and fed uncontaminated feed three times a day. The fish samples were burned in the Oxidizer and the reading of radioactivity was performed in a liquid scintillation spectrometer. It is worth noting that on day 7 and day 14, the water in the aquariums was filtered through filter paper to collect the metabolic excrement. SDZ concentrations increased over the days and accumulation occurred in the fish, with day seven presenting the maximum accumulation value of 91.7 ng·g−1 due to feeding uptake. After the depletion phase on day 13, the value found was 0.83 ng·g−1. The bioconcentration factor calculated was 20 L·kg−1. After the bioaccumulation period, the concentrations of SDZ in the water and excreta were 4.5 µg·L−1 and 363.5 ng·g−1, respectively. In the depletion period, the concentrations in the water and excreta were 0.01 µg·L−1 and 5.96 ng·g−1, respectively. These results imply that there was little SDZ bioaccumulation in the fish, but that it was distributed in larger amounts in the water. This is due to the physicochemical properties of the molecule with the low Log P value. Regarding the maximum residue limit, the value was below the established value. This study contributes to understanding SDZ dynamics in an aquatic species native to Brazil.
