Foi uma honra e um privilégio presidir a Academia Nacional de Medicina do Brasil durante a realização dos dois “A Academia na Serra” realizados (em 2017 e 2019) na FMP em parceria com duas das mais importantes instituições do Brasil, a Academia Nacional de Medicinal (ANM) e a Fundação Oswaldo Cruz (Fiocruz), cuja presidente é a Dra. Nisia Trindade Lima. Os Anais da ANM, cuja fundação data de 1830 (190 anos de existência) e estão ativos até hoje, tem como objetivo divulgar as atividades da ANM intra e extra muros, incluindo as realizações científicas e culturais dos acadêmicos. Além disso, eles se propõem a divulgar os eventos realizado...

Il semble exister une zone de transition peu claire entre vieillissement physiologique et vieillissement pathologique, donc on peut faire l’hypothese qu’il existe un seuil quantitatif en termes de neurones et de connexions permettant le fonctionement mental et les capacites d’adaptation. On discute des facteurs de risque et de protection, aussi bien que des structures cerebrales plus vulnerables au cours du vieillissement. Le vieillissement pathologique devient un probleme de sante publique avec un cout economique, social et familial tres eleve. Il faut bien comprendre ce phenomene pour y faire face en ce XXIe siecle.

Therefore, when we speak about psychiatric care among the underprivileged, we will find certain elements peculiar to each culture and others which are common to underprivileged people everywhere. Naturally, the uneven distribution of income, social injustice, and great misery existing side by side with opulent wealth in these societies will have repercussions in psychiatric care. In these countries psychiatry is not a priority. More care is given to the undernourished and those suffering from infectocontagious illness and tropical diseases.

A ideia subjacente à temática deste relatório foi realçar a importância crescente que a utilização de redes sem fios tem a vários níveis que vão desde a implementação e configuração até à disposição dos dispositivos, que tanto impacto poderá ter na idealização e conceção dos ambientes de aprendizagem do futuro. Os dispositivos englobam: PCs (tanto portáteis como de secretária), smartphones, iPhones, tablets, iPads. Este conceito de rede sem fios pode servir também como introdução a tod...

Epidemiological studies in the USA and Europe have demonstrated that the prevalence of dysthymia is at least 3% of the general population. Its pervasive occurrence makes dysthymia a public health problem worldwide. One feature of this disorder is its co-occurrence with medical and neurological disorders. A World Health Organization meeting on dysthymia in neurological disorders was held in Geneva, 1-3 July 1996 to address this topic. Some of the major goals of this meeting were to clarify the definition of dysthymia in the presence of neurological disorders and to evaluate current research in the field, to point out new areas for investigation, and to discuss current psychological and pharmacological treatments for dysthymia in neurological disorders. The potential roles of neuroendocrine and molecular mechanisms in dysthymia were identified through specific problems related to dysthymia occurring in disorders such ...

Five centres representing distinct cultures participated in phase I of the project, the main objective of which was to test the cross-cultural applicability and reliability of instruments for the assessment of somatoform disorders. The analysis of the assessed somatic symptoms showed that various aches and pains in different parts of the body represented cross-culturally the most frequent symptoms for which there was no medical explanation. Such symptoms may indicate the presence of an underlying mental disorder but can also represent a means for culture-specific expression of psychosocial distress. This bears particular significance for health professionals in primary and general medical care, who are most likely to encounter patients presenting with multiple, persistent and medically unexplained somatic symptoms.

Over the years WHO has been undertaking public health related activities in the field of neurology ranging from the coordination of international research projects to the organisation of international meetings on public health aspects of specific neurological disorders such as epilepsy, dementia, and stroke. In the realisation of such activities WHO has been relying on a network of WHO Collaborating Centres (neurological institutions of excellence in different parts of the world); the WHO Expert Panel on Neuroscience (members of which are distinguished neuroscientists including Nobel Prize winners); and many international, professional, and non-governmental organisations working in the field of neurology and related disciplines —for example, the World Federation of Neurology, World Federation of Neurosurgical Societies, European Federation of Neurological Societies, International Federation of Multiple Sclerosis Societies, International League Against Epilepsy, International Bureau for Epilepsy, International Headache Society, and the International Association for the Study of Pain. Regular annual meetings with the presidents and representatives of the organisations mentioned above have been organised in Geneva, thus serving as an international platform for exchange of information on ongoing and future projects in the fields of neurology and neuroscience in general. To give more prominence to the work of WHO on neuroscience and its public health aspects, a Unit on Neuroscience has recently been established in the WHO Division of Mental Health and Prevention of Substance Abuse and a Programme on Neuroscience has been created with the help of experts in the fields of …
