We report the first confirmed record of an ocelot (Leopardus pardalis) dragging a dead calf. This occurred in degraded forest in southeastern Brazil and highlights opportunistic behavior in anthropized landscapes, reinforcing the importance of direct observations for understanding interactions between mesopredators and domestic animals.
Purpose Despite the growing discussion of sustainable business model innovation (SBMI) in theory and practice, the specific sustainability dimensions driving it remain unclear. This study conducts a bibliometric review to map literature on SBMI, identifying thematic trends, key clusters and the field’s evolution while examining what dimensions of sustainability (social, environmental and economic) are prioritized. Design/methodology/approach A bibliometric performance and network analysis was done using articles retrieved from Scopus and Web of Science. A total of 3,437 papers were analyzed using SciMAT and Python. Findings Results show a predominance of the environmental over the social and economic dimensions. The study discovered a strategic diagram depicting 24 clusters related to SBMI, such as Circular Economy, Servitization, Health Care Delivery and Artificial Intelligence. It also presents the thematic evolution structure of SBMI literature in four sub-periods: 1999–2010, 2011–2015, 2016–2020 and 2021–2025. Each subperiod has specifics on the subject. Differences in the sustainability dimensions adopted in the SBMI of developed and developing countries were identified. Practical implications A sustainability maturity matrix is proposed as a benchmarking tool. It can assist managers in assessing a company’s SBMI focus on social, environmental and economic dimensions to pinpoint gaps and advance their maturity level to create, deliver and capture sustainable value. Originality/value The article stresses that SBMI research should deeply explore social sustainability, whose potential to alleviate social discrepancies and injustices can significantly contribute to nations’ sustainable development. This gap opens future research and practice opportunities, detailed in a proposed research agenda.
ABSTRACT Objective: To evaluate the association between the pulp involvement, ulceration, fistula, abscess (PUFA) index and oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL) of 5-year-old Brazilian children. Methods: This was a cross-sectional, population-based study using data from the oral health survey SB Brasil 2023. A total of 7,198 children examined by trained teams were included. The exposure variable was the presence of clinical consequences of untreated caries in primary teeth, assessed by PUFA. OHRQoL was assessed using the SOHO-5 instrument for 5-year-olds. The analysis considered a complex sampling design, using Poisson regression to estimate prevalence ratios (PR) and linear regression. Results: The prevalence of clinical consequences of untreated caries (PUFA≥1) was 41.1%, with a higher prevalence among Black, Brown, Asian, and Indigenous children compared to White children. Attending school (PR 0.69; 95%CI 0.53-0.90) and a family income above R$ 4,000.00 (PR 0.59; 95%CI 0.42-0.84) showed a protective effect. The North and Central-West regions had higher prevalence rates than the Southeast. and OHRQoL was worse among children of mixed race and indigenous descent compared to those of white skin color. Furthermore, children with dental caries had a 1.44-point higher OHRQoL score (β=1.44; 95%CI 1.01-1.86), which indicates a worse OHRQoL. Conclusion: The clinical consequences of untreated dental caries have a negative impact on the OHRQoL of Brazilian children, influenced by social and racial determinants. These findings reinforce the need for public policies aimed at reducing regional inequalities and expanding oral health promotion and prevention actions.
A Síndrome Respiratória Aguda Grave (SRAG) em crianças apresentou mudanças epidemiológicas significativas no cenário pós-pandemia de COVID-19 (1). Este estudo realiza uma revisão sistemática da literatura brasileira para analisar como a alteração na circulação de vírus respiratórios e os impactos das medidas de isolamento modificaram o perfil de internações pediátricas (2). Os resultados demonstram um fenômeno de "dívida imunológica", caracterizado por picos sazonais fora de época de vírus como o VSR e o Influenza, afetando faixas etárias que anteriormente apresentavam menor risco de complicações graves (3). Conclui-se que a organização da rede de atenção hospitalar e o fortalecimento da vigilância epidemiológica são fundamentais para enfrentar a nova realidade da SRAG, sendo a vacinação e a prontidão das equipes de terapia intensiva os principais pilares de suporte para a redução da morbimortalidade infantil (4,5,6).
A internação involuntária representa um dos temas mais controversos na psiquiatria contemporânea, situando-se na intersecção entre o dever de cuidado, a autonomia do paciente e os direitos civis. Esta revisão sistemática objetivou analisar os dilemas éticos que cercam a prática, bem como avaliar as evidências disponíveis sobre os desfechos clínicos e psicossociais em longo prazo de pacientes submetidos a essa medida. A literatura indica que, embora a internação involuntária seja uma ferramenta crucial para a preservação da vida em casos de risco iminente, sua eficácia em longo prazo é limitada se não estiver integrada a um projeto terapêutico singular que privilegie a reabilitação psicossocial e a continuidade do cuidado ambulatorial. Conclui-se que o uso dessa medida deve ser restrito, transparente e guiado por critérios técnicos rigorosos, evitando que se transforme em uma forma de exclusão social ou um "atalho" frente à falha das políticas de saúde mental.
