Item Acesso aberto (Open Access) Caracterização do perfil epidemiológico da doença de Chagas aguda no estado do Pará(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2021-12-20) RAMOS, Eduardo Rabelo; CAVALCANTE, Gustavo Góes; http://lattes.cnpq.br/4614184899519791; https://orcid.org/0000-0003-0548-4801Chagas disease was discovered in 1909 by Carlos Chagas when he observed blood samples from a symptomatic child, who had come into contact with the “barbeiro” vector, and in these samples there was the presence of the protozoan Trypanosoma cruzi. This disease can be transmitted in several ways, however the most common are vectorial and orally. In this scenario, it was reported in Latin America that approximately 6 million people contracted the disease, where 14,000 people die each year from Chagas disease; the state of Pará plays a central role in this number of cases, as between 2010 and 2018 76.8% of the cases reported in Brazil occurred in this region. This work is of a quantitative-qualitative nature, presenting data related to acute Chagas disease (ACD) in the state of Pará between the years 2008 to 2018. Data regarding the occurrence of ACD from the SINAN platform and the treatment were used. of this data was performed by the software Excel 2019 and Q-Gis v.3.16.6, for the elaboration of a historical-temporal series and a heat map in order to present the situation of the state of Pará, in addition to verifying the relationship between the disease and the variable Human Development Index (HDI). When analyzing the results, it was noticeable that the occurrence of this disease in the state is different from the national average (2048 reported cases), since the number of cases in Pará was one hundred times greater than in the rest of Brazil, with an increasing trend, and if It occurs mainly through oral transmission (77.69% of cases), which can be explained by the cultural consumption of fresh açaí pulp. Another important result was the inversely proportional relationship between the incidence of ACD and the HDI of the municipalities.Item Acesso aberto (Open Access) Conhecimento etnobotânico de moradores da comunidade quilombola Itaboca, município de Inhangapi, estado do Pará(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2019-07-03) SILVA, Sueli de Castro; CAVALCANTE, Gustavo Góes; http://lattes.cnpq.br/4614184899519791The traditional knowledge about the use of medicinal plants in a quilombola community is the subject of this research, whose main objective is to describe the ethnobotanical knowledge of residents of the Itaboca quilombola community, Inhangapi municipality, northeastern Pará state, in the context of relations socio-cultural The study was developed from the quantitative and qualitative descriptive methodological approaches, applying semi-structured questionnaires, open interviews and direct observation. Twenty-four practitioners of folk medicine were interviewed and selected by non-random sampling using the snowball method, indicated by three people in the community called seeds A, B and C. Four representatives of the community were interviewed through open interviews. The results reveal a set of knowledge and practices using medicinal plants cultivated by families. However, due to their kinship relationship, it is the matriarchs and elders of the community who concentrate greater credibility for the practice of folk medicine, because they have greater knowledge and empirical experience with medicinal plants. This knowledge interferes with the social organization of the community, crossing healing practices and modifying the landscape of the community environment through anthropic processes of substitution of the floral for medicinal species grown in the backyards. Within the ethnobotanical knowledge of the inhabitants of Itaboca, 83 species were recorded, of which 41 were identified. The most cited plants were boldo (Plectranthus ornatus), peppermint (Menta pulegium L.), lemon balm (Lippia alba (Mill) .N.E.Br). Tea is the most common form of preparation. Treatment of digestive tract complications is the most appropriate. In this study, a religious syncretism of curative character was observed. The conclusion of the work points to the risk of ethnobotanical cultural losses resulting from the little interest of younger generations to maintain this knowledge, which requires policies to encourage the preservation of cultural knowledge of traditional populations and effective laws that guarantee recognition and appreciation of cultural heritage. of these communities. It is considered that the knowledge coming from this universe can provide relevant contributions to the conservation of traditional community cultural and biological traditions, as well as provide theoretical / practical support to cultural debates and laboratory scientific research in the academic sphere.
