Introdução: O estudo do absenteísmo na área da saúde é fundamental, visto que, a ausência do servidor ao trabalho pode gerar prejuízo ao usuário do sistema público de saúde, ao próprio servidor ausente, ao servidor presente e à instituição. Objetivo: Realizar uma revisão integrativa da literatura a fim de compreender a relação entre a satisfação profissional, a qualidade de vida e o absenteísmo dos trabalhadores de um hospital público. Materiais e Métodos: Foi feita uma busca de referência com os descritores “Satisfação no trabalho”, “Qualidade de vida”, “Absenteísmo” e “Hospitais Públicos” nas bases de dados Periódicos CAPES, Google Acadêmico e PUBMED. Pelos critérios de elegibilidade, 5 estudos se adequaram aos parâmetros estipulados. Resultados: Os 5 estudos analisados encontraram relação entre o absenteísmo e a satisfação profissional, de forma estatística ou observacional. Quanto à qualidade de vida, 40% da amostra encontrou relação entre os dois fatores. Conclusão: Existe relação entre o absenteísmo e a satisfação profissional e essa relação é inversamente proporcional. No que tange a qualidade de vida, a relação entre os dois fatores não é uma unanimidade. Uma das limitações verificadas no estudo é a variedade de conceitos para definir satisfação profissional e qualidade de vida.Palavras-chave: Satisfação no trabalho, Qualidade de vida, Absenteísmo ABSTRACTJob satisfaction, quality of life and absenteeism in a public hospital: a reviewIntroduction: The study of the absenteeism in the health area is fundamental, since the absence of the server in the work can cause impairment to the user of the public health system, to the absent server itself, to the present server and to the institution. Objective: Carrying out an integrative literature review to understand the relationship between job satisfaction, quality of life and absenteeism from workers in a public hospital. Materials and methods: It were made a reference search with the descriptors "job satisfaction", "quality of life", "absenteeism" and "public hospitals" in the “Periódico Capes”, Scholar Google and PubMed databases. According to the eligibility criteria, 5 studies were adapted to the stipulated parameters. Results: It was found a relationship between absenteeism and job satisfaction from the 5 studies analyzed, either statistically or observationally. As for quality of life, 40% of the sample found a relationship between the two factors. Conclusion: There is a relationship between absenteeism and job satisfaction and this relationship is inversely proportional. With regarding to the quality of life, the relationship between the two factors is not an unanimity. One of the limitations found in the study is the variety of concepts to define job satisfaction and quality of life.Keyword: Job Satisfaction, Quality of life, Absenteeism.

The widespread prevalence of comorbid pathology determines the relevance of this problem. Comorbid pathology due to the interaction of diseases, drug pathomorphism, age characteristics of the patient, significantly changes clinical picture and course of the main nosology, affects severity of complications and their nature, significantly affects quality of life and prognosis of patients. Diagnosis and treatment of many diseases is complicated in the conditions of comorbidity. The article presents a clinical case of a comorbid patient with arterial hypertension from the moment of exposure to risk factors and ending with the formation of many concomitant diseases, as an example of trans-nosological comorbidity.

Density Reduction

Background: The patients on hemodialysis have a significantly decreased quality of life. One of many problems which reduce the quality of life and increase the mortality in these patients is osteoporosis and osteoporosis associated fractures. Objectives: To assess the bone density of those on hemodialysis by dual energy X ray absorptiometry and to examine the risk factors of bone density reduction in these patients. Patients and Method: This is a cross-sectional study, including 93 patients on chronic hemodialysis at the department of Hemodialysis at Cho Ray Hospital. Results: Mean bone densities at the region of interest (ROI) neck, trochanter, Ward triangle, intertrochanter and total neck are 0.603 ± 0.105; 0.583 ± 0.121; 0.811 ± 0.166; 0.489 ± 0.146; 0.723 ± 0.138 g/cm2 respectively. The prevalences of osteoporosis at those ROI are 39.8%, 15.1%; 28%; 38.7%; and 26.9% respectively. The prevalences of osteopenia at those ROI are 54.8%; 46.3%; 60.2%; 45.2% and 62.7% respectively. The prevalence of osteopososis in at least one ROI is 52.7% and the prevalence of osteopenia in at least one ROI is 47.3%. There are relations between the bone density at the neck and the gender of the patient and the albuminemia. Bone density at the trochanter is influenced by gender, albuminemia, calcemia and phosphoremia. Bone density at the intertrochanter is affected by the gender. Bone density at the Ward triangle is influenced by age and albuminemia. Total neck bone density is influenced by gender, albuminemia and phosphoremia. Conclusion: Osteoporosis in patients on chronic hemodialysis is an issue that requires our attention. There are many interventionable risk factors of bone density decrease in these patients. Key words: Osteoporosis, DEXA, chronic renal failure, chronic hemodialysis

Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is a group of metabolic abnormalities, which together lead to increased risk of coronary heart disease (CHD) and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), as well as reduced quality of life. Dietary nitrate, betalains and anthocyanins may improve risk factors for MetS and reduce the risk of development of CHD and T2DM. Beetroot is a rich source of dietary nitrate, and anthocyanins are present in high concentrations in blackcurrants. This narrative review considers the efficacy of beetroot and blackcurrant compounds as potential agents to improve MetS risk factors, which could lead to decreased risk of CHD and T2DM. Further research is needed to establish the mechanisms through which these outcomes may occur, and chronic supplementation studies in humans may corroborate promising findings from animal models and acute human trials.

Seizures are among the most common symptoms of meningioma. This retrospective study sought to identify risk factors for early and late seizures in meningioma patients and to evaluate a modified STAMPE2 score. In 556 patients who underwent meningioma surgery, we correlated different risk factors with the occurrence of postoperative seizures. A modified STAMPE2 score was applied. Risk factors for preoperative seizures were edema (p = 0.039) and temporal location (p = 0.038). For postoperative seizures preoperative tumor size (p < 0.001), sensomotory deficit (p = 0.004) and sphenoid wing location (p = 0.032) were independent risk factors. In terms of postoperative status epilepticus; sphenoid wing location (p = 0.022), tumor volume (p = 0.045) and preoperative seizures (p < 0.001) were independent risk factors. Postoperative seizures lead to a KPS deterioration and thus an impaired quality of life (p < 0.001). Late seizures occurred in 43% of patients with postoperative seizures. The small sub-cohort of patients (2.7%) with a STAMPE2 score of more than six points had a significantly increased risk for seizures (p < 0.001, total risk 70%). We concluded that besides distinct risk factors, high scores of the modified STAMPE2 score could estimate the risk of postoperative seizures. However, it seems not transferable to our cohort
