Objectives to assess the levels of anxiety, depression, stress and fear of COVID-19 in non-syndromic cleft lip and/or palate (NSCL/P) children parents and caregivers. Materials and Methods Cross-sectional case-control study conducted at a Craniofacial Anomalies Rehabilitation Center, Brazil. Non-probabilistic convenience sampling was used and data were collected between October 2021 and November 2022. Variables were assessed by Depression, Anxiety and Stress Scale (DASS-21) and Fear of COVID-19 Scale (FC-19S). Pearson's chi-square test and multivariate binary logistic regression model have been performed. Results Data were obtained of 80 NSCL/P parents group and 130 by control group. Severe symptoms were higher in NSCL/P parents indicated by rates (8.8% vs 69% to anxiety; 12.5% vs 8.5% to depression and 17.5% vs 10.0% to stress). As for the predilection in case group there was an association (p 95%CI 1.28–13.06). Control group caregivers were more fear of COVID-19 (43.8% vs 28.7% p

To evaluate the surgical rehabilitation of cleft lip and/or palate by the Brazilian public health system.Retrospective, analytical and comparative ecological study, with information on hospital procedures performed on individuals with cleft lip and/or palate in Centers authorized by the Brazilian public health system, between the years 2008 and 2020. The information was collected in databases Ministry of Health data.Between 2008 and 2020, there was an increase of 8 (36.4%) qualified Centers in Brazil, currently having 30 Centers in 100% of the geographic regions. The surgical procedures performed totaled 68,716; with multiple surgeries being the most frequent. Complete cleft lip and palate was the most frequent type in hospital admissions. The public financial resources invested in the surgical rehabilitation of cleft lip and palate in the qualified Lip and Palate Malformation Treatment Centers were US$ 39,693 million, making an average value per procedure of US$ 577.64.In Brazil, public health system performed and financed, over the years 2008 and 2020, an important volume of surgical procedures for cleft lip and/or palate, which presented a polarization in the Southeast region but with a slight tendency expansion to other regions of the country. The most performed surgical procedures were multiple surgeries and mostly for individuals with cleft lip and palate. The amounts paid showed a heretogeneous distribution in the national territory.Level 5: Report containing program evaluation data.

Começamos por identificar e analisar brevemente os principais debates já em curso sobre este tema em termos do impacto da COVID-19 na política internacional, apontando pontes para a nossa investigação que nos permitam contribuir para o debate global em curso. De seguida, analisamos as principais conclusões do inquérito a uma amostra representativa da opinião pública portuguesa realizada em duas vagas (Inquérito sobre a Pandemia COVID-19 em Portugal, detalhado na introdução deste livro), bem como um inquérito de elite dirigido aos principais responsáveis dos serviços centrais do Estado português com responsabilidade na gestão da resposta à pandemia, e em particular do seu impacto nas relações externas. Exploramos a ação externa de Portugal neste contexto, tendo em conta a informação disponível em fontes abertas, bem como entrevistas realizadas com intervenientes chave. Por fim, avançamos um conjunto de lições aprendidas e recomendações que poderão ser atendidas no planeamento para eventuais crises futuras. info:eu-repo/semantics/acceptedVersion

— In recent years there is a growing number of attacks in the computer networks. Therefore, the use of a prevention mechanism is an inevitable need for security admins. Although firewalls are preferred as the first layer of protection, it is not sufficient for preventing lots of the attacks, especially from the insider attacks. Intrusion Detection Systems (IDSs) have emerged as an effective solution to these types of attacks. For increasing the efficiency of the IDS system, a dynamic solution, which can adapt itself and can detect new types of intrusions with a dynamic structure by the use of learning algorithms is mostly preferred. In previous years, some machine learning approaches are implemented in lots of IDSs. In the current position of artificial intelligence, most of the learning systems are transferred with the use of Deep Learning approaches due to its flexibility and the use of Big Data with high accuracy. In this paper, we propose a clustered approach to detect the intrusions in a network. Firstly, the system is trained with Deep Neural Network on a Big Data set by accelerating its performance with the use of CUDA architecture. Experimental results show that the proposed system has a very good accuracy rate and low runtime duration with the use of this parallel computation architecture. Additionally, the proposed system needs a relatively small duration for training the system

No. of bitstreams: 0 Previous issue date: 2020-05-28 This in vitro study evaluated the effect of the application and previous photoactivation of bonding adhesives in lithium disilicate ceramics. This was achieved by analyzing the bond strength of the cement-ceramic interface, nanohardness and elastic modulus of bonding adhesives and resin cements. The bonding adhesives used were Scotchbond Multi-Purpose (SBMP); Scotchbond Multi-Purpose light-cured (SBMP+LC); Single Bond 2 (SB2); Single Bond 2 light-cured (SB2+LC); Single Bond Universal (SBU) and Single Bond Universal light-cured (SBU+LC). After luting the ceramic in composite resin blocks, all specimens were subjected to 10,000 thermocycles. Sticks were obtained for the microtensile bonding strength test and the nanohardness and elastic modulus of the bonding adhesive and resin cements. Data were submitted to one-way ANOVA and Fishers tests (α =0.05). The results indicated that the bonding strength and mechanical properties were influenced by the interaction of the bonding adhesive and resin cement. For the mechanical properties analyzed, no statistically significant differences were observed between the groups. Single Bond Universal was the only system that was effective with or without previous light activation. For the other adhesive systems, Scotchbond Multi- Purpose and Single Bond 2, the previous light activation was necessary to optimize the bonding strength of the adhesive interface.
