Título: Análise comparativa do perfil imunológico e bioquímico entre pacientes com Doença Pulmonar Obstrutiva Crônica e pacientes com Espirometria com Comprometimento da Relação Preservada (PRISm) Autor(es): Braz, Leticia Helen Dias Primeiro Orientador: Baccan, Gyselle Chrystina Abstract: Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) and Preserved Ratio Impaired Spirometry (PRISm) are pulmonary conditions that share common factors. However, the pathophysiological mechanisms differentiating these entities remain poorly understood. This study aimed to compare the immunological and biochemical profiles of patients with COPD and PRISm and to analyze the correlation of these biomarkers with anthropometric parameters in each group. A cross-sectional analytical study was conducted involving 72 patients aged 50-80 years. Serum cytokines (IL-6, IL-8, IL-10, IL-12, TNF), biochemical markers (total cholesterol, HDL, LDL, triglycerides, glucose, glycated hemoglobin), and anthropometric measurements (waist circumference, triceps skinfold thickness, mid upper arm circumference) were assessed. No statistically significant differences were found between the groups regarding cytokine or biochemical levels. However, in COPD patients, abdominal circumference correlated positively with IL-6 levels (r = 0.565; p < 0.05), while triceps skinfold thickness showed a significant inverse correlation with IL-10 (r = – 0.427; p < 0.05). In PRISm patients, glucose levels were positively correlated with mid upper arm circumference (r = 0.574; p < 0.05) and body mass index (r = 0.567; p < 0.05). Although COPD and PRISm patients exhibited similar inflammatory and biochemical profiles, our analysis of correlations with body composition parameters showed distinct associations. The presents findings underscore the importance of individualized clinical management for each patient group. Editora / Evento / Instituição: Universidade Federal da Bahia Tipo: Dissertação

Título: Práticas discursivas do cuidado em saúde mental de profissionais da atenção primária Autor(es): Sousa, Vinícius André Gouveia de Primeiro Orientador: Jesus, Mônica Lima de Abstract: This research analyzed the discursive practices of healthcare professionals in public primary care regarding mental health care. There is a need to build strategies to overcome recurring barriers in this field, such as indiscriminate overmedication and the feeling of unpreparedness reported by multidisciplinary family health teams. These obstacles, often naturalized in work routines, hinder the implementation of practices based on integrality and the humanization of care, in line with an expanded concept of health that goes beyond the hegemonic biomedical model. Understanding team dynamics and their discursive practices enables the problematization of what is given as natural and the possibility of building new actions. The research is guided by the theoretical-methodological approach of discursive practices and the production of meaning, within the field of Social Constructionist Psychology. A conversation circle was conducted with a family and community health team in the city of João Pessoa, Paraíba. The meeting was recorded and fully transcribed. To organize the analysis of the discursive practices, we used the dialogic map. The map enabled the construction of two analytical themes and their respective subthemes:1. Difficulties and limits in MH (Mental Health) care: 1.1 Effects of medicalization/overmedication on the dehumanization of health; 1.2 Effects of high demand and low supply; 1.3 Discontinuity of care; 1.4 Professional unpreparedness; 1.5 Suffering and overload of professionals; 1.6 Care faced with limits.2. MH care practices and coping strategies: 2.1 Assistentialism and individualized care; 2.2 Problematizations of care; 2.3 Potentialities of listening and bonding; 2.4 Education and community autonomy; 2.5 Spaces of support for healthcare professionals. Theme 1 focuses on contents interpreted as difficulties and discusses the professionals' stance in naturalizing these difficulties. Theme 2 focuses on discursive practices aimed at both assistentialist and emancipatory solutions, in addition to the process of problematizing care practices and seeking mutual support within the team itself. The professionals made it possible to discuss institutional and community resources for the production of strategies contextualized within the social reality in which the meanings about mental health care were produced. The conversation circle experience paved the way to think about a care practice that does not leave the professional unsupported in the process, but rather uses their reality as a reference point for the production of meanings about care in a socially and territorially contextualized manner.

Título: Estudo comparativo de estratégias de controle clássico aplicadas a um quadrirrotor Autor(es): Santos, Victor Coutinho Vieira Primeiro Orientador: Santos, Tito Luís Maia Abstract: The main motivation of this work is to evaluate the potential and limitations of a set of simplified classical control strategies in the context of trajectory control of a lightweight and low-cost quadrotor. To this end, different control algorithms are investigated, considering both the performance achieved in trajectory tracking and the complexity associated with the design and tuning of the controllers. Initially, the tests are carried out in a simulated environment, using the Gazebo robotic platform, followed by experimental validation with a physical drone in an indoor environment. The study uses the ROS 2 framework in the Foxy distribution to perform the simulations and physical tests, aiming to maintain methodological consistency across the different evaluated scenarios. The results are organized by control algorithm, and the quantitative analysis employs the NRMSE metric, while the qualitative evaluation considers the adherence to the trajectory and the dynamic behavior observed in the experiments. As the main result, this work proposes a comparative analysis guided by the trade-off between performance and design simplicity. Based on the advantages, disadvantages, and limitations observed for each evaluated strategy, the controllers that provide better performance with lower implementation complexity are identified, as well as the cases in which more elaborate architectures are justified by the gains obtained in trajectory control.

Título: Técnicas de modulação vetorial baseadas na distribuição da energia de modo comum para atenuação da corrente de fuga em inversores fotovoltaicos de três níveis Autor(es): Mendonça, Luan Aleixo Canário Primeiro Orientador: Bahia, Filipe Antônio da Costa Abstract: Transformerless photovoltaic inverters are susceptible to leakage current, predominantly caused by the common-mode voltage. Modulation strategies typically focus on reducing the amplitude of this voltage, while its frequency spectrum is often neglected. Since the leakage current flows through an RLC loop formed by the output filter and the parasitic capacitance of the photovoltaic modules, the distribution of the common-mode voltage frequency spectrum relative to the circuit resonance frequency has a direct impact on its magnitude. Therefore, shifting the energy of its frequency components away from the resonance region constitutes an effective leakage current mitigation strategy. Based on this premise, this work introduces a modulation approach grounded in the spectral distribution of common-mode energy. To validate this approach, two modulation techniques are proposed. The first concentrates most of the energy around the switching frequency, making it more suitable when the resonance frequency is significantly higher. The second redistributes part of the energy to higher-order harmonics, making it more advantageous when the resonance frequency is close to or lower than the switching frequency. The proposed techniques operate over the entire modulation index range, enable DC-link capacitor voltage balancing, and exhibit low harmonic distortion and switching losses, as confirmed by both simulation and experimental results. In addition, the analysis of leakage current as a function of the modulation index reveals an optimal operating region in which the leakage current is minimized.

Título: Teoria de médio alcance para a redução de danos de pessoas que usam drogas: fundamentação conceitual para o cuidado de enfermagem na atenção psicossocial Autor(es): Alves, Nemório Rodrigues Primeiro Orientador: Felix, Nuno Damácio de Carvalho Abstract: Drug use is a complex phenomenon with significant impacts on public health, aggravated by prohibitionist policies that generate stigmatization and exclusion. In this context, Harm Reduction emerges as an ethical-political paradigm in Psychosocial Care, guiding practices centered on autonomy and rights. Nursing assumes a strategic role in this care, but conceptual gaps regarding Harm Reduction indicate the need for greater theoretical depth to improve practice. Aimed to analyze the concept of Harm Reduction and develop a middle-range theory for Harm Reduction of people who use drugs. This is a theoretical study based on Walker and Avant. A scoping review guided by the JBI was used, with systematic search, rigorous selection, and independent analysis of studies. The conceptual analysis included the identification of attributes, antecedents, consequences, and empirical referents. From the findings, a middlerange theory was constructed by induction, structured in purpose, propositions, diagramming, and assumptions, focused on Harm Reduction of people who use drugs. The study followed ethical principles, without involving human subjects. Results: The results showed that scientific production on Harm Reduction in nursing is still incipient, heterogeneous, and discontinuous, marked by conceptual disputes, formative weaknesses, and institutional limitations in its incorporation into care practice. The conceptual analysis allowed the identification of antecedents related to social vulnerability and hegemonic models of care, attributes centered on the ethical-relational dimension and the centrality of the subject, and consequences associated with the expansion of autonomy, improvement of well-being, and continuity of care. It was possible to construct an expanded and operational definition of the concept, highlighting its multidimensional character and its relevance to grounding nursing practice. Finally, the construction of the Middle-Range Theory resulted in the systematization of 20 propositions organized into five categories, a theoretical model, and a set of 10 assumptions that articulate metaparadigmatic and associated concepts, offering a structured theoretical framework for the operationalization of Harm Reduction in nursing care. This thesis demonstrated that Harm Reduction, although present in nursing practices, is still in the process of theoretical and practical consolidation, marked by conceptual disputes and weaknesses in its incorporation into services. The conceptual analysis allowed its refinement as an ethicalpolitical and relational paradigm of care, culminating in the construction of a Middle-Range Theory capable of theoretically supporting nursing practice in this field. The proposed theory has the potential to improve care, support training processes, and guide more ethical, equitable practices centered on the needs of people who use drugs.
