Research protocol on the impact of Covid-19 on pregnant and postpartum women and their babies
To better understand how Covid-19 infection during pregnancy can impact women and their newborns, the World Health Organization has developed a standardized investigational research protocol.
The protocol addresses key research questions, facilitating the collection and analysis of data and samples, allowing the comparison and unification of information from different locations, that is, different countries and centers can develop standardized studies with the same parameters, making them easily comparable. and generating much safer conclusions.
This protocol investigates the outcomes of pregnant or postpartum women who were exposed to the virus, and compares them with those who were not.
infected.
The aim is to determine whether infection with SARS-Cov-2 (Covid-19) during pregnancy increases the risk for problems in the woman or newborn. In addition, the study will be able to quantify the rate of vertical (from mother to unborn baby) and postnatal transmission.
It is expected that the findings of this study will be widely disseminated and used to inform the development of recommendations on the surveillance, management and counseling of women before, during and after pregnancy.
The implementation of this study protocol will help to shape public health policies and also future research protocols.
Since March 2020, in Brazil, Argentina and Chile, the adaptation and performance of this project has been carried out by REBRACO (Brazilian Network for the Study of Covid-19 in Obstetrics) and has several research centers in maternal and child health.
Research "Men's Perspective on Violence Against their Partner
It has long been studied how what we experience during childhood reflects on our adult life, including issues involving violence against women.
A Dr. Maria Jose Osis She has a degree in Social Sciences from UNICAMP, a PhD in Public Health from USP, and is a CEMICAMP researcher. He recently collaborated on a research project
"Perspectiva de los hombres sobre la violencia de pareja en Paraguay"
of the Centro Paraguayo de Estudios de Población. The study brought, among many data, expressive statistics about how childhood punishments can perpetuate violence against a partner and its naturalization.
In the study, 67.4% of the respondents consider moral violence against their partner justifiable, and 26% have witnessed physical aggression against their mothers or stepmothers. In addition, 89% suffered some kind of physical or moral punishment during childhood, and of these, 45% said they perpetuate attitudes of violence against their partners.
The study was conducted with 1,000 Paraguayan men aged 29-40 and they were asked statements about: attitudes, beliefs, opinions, experiences, gender roles, rights, and perpetuation of family violence.
The answers showed, in general, largely equitable opinions related to work, childcare, and gender roles, but this still contrasts with official data on the distribution and participation of men in unpaid domestic work, and the perception of violent attitudes as something justifiable and/or natural.
This scenario is due to cultural, religious and socioeconomic factors, besides the already mentioned physical and moral aggressions suffered in childhood.
