    Abstract ABSTRACT Infections caused by arboviruses that have mostly impacted the Brazilian morbidity and mortality are caused by the same vector, Aedes aegypti. Preventive actions related to the vector are the most effective strategies in the prevention and control of these diseases. This study aimed to associate the knowledge on the vector that transmits dengue, Zika and chikungunya with the sociodemographic and behavioral preventive practices towards Aedes aegypti in the municipality of Tangara da Serra, Mato Grosso State, in the Brazilian Legal Amazon. A probabilistic urban population sampling was obtained by clusters: census sectors and households. The sample size calculation considered 10% of loss and a 1.5 design effect. This is a cross-sectional research carried out through a household survey in February and March 2018. There were 583 participants. The study variables were knowledge on the vector, sociodemographic characteristics and preventive practices related to the vector. The statistical analysis was based on a bivariate analysis and Poisson multiple regressions. Inadequate or insufficient knowledge on the vector Aedes aegypti remained associated with education in the categories illiterate (p<0.001) and 8 years of study or less (p<0.001), in addition to not adopting practices of capping and cleaning the water tank (p=0.002) and not using insecticides at home (p=0.007). It is concluded that there is a need for health communication actions that consider characteristics the population, especially the level of education and previous knowledge on the vector, allowing a dialogical approach and enabling the community participation in preventive practices and control of the vector Aedes aegypti .

    Abstract Background: Dengue is considered to be the most important arbovirus worldwide, with important complications that increase its lethality. In Brazil, an endemic country, the disease reaches significant incidence levels, with occurrences of serious cases and high costs of hospitalizations for its treatment.
    Objective: To analyze risk factors among individuals with recent histories of dengue infection in a medium-sized city in Mato Grosso.
    Design and setting: Descriptive cross-sectional study, of epidemiological-survey type, conducted among the urban population of a city located in mid-northern Mato Grosso.
    Methods: A seroepidemiological survey using questionnaires and collection of biological material was conducted among 596 adults aged ≥ 18 years who had been selected through a cluster sampling process. Positive dengue cases were those with positive results from anti-dengue immunoassays (ELISA). Statistical analyses with descriptive and inferential techniques were used, with 95% confidence intervals and a 5% significance level.
    Results: The seroepidemiological profile of the study participants was predominantly female, with ages between 18 and 39 years, self-declared non-white race/color, not more than eight years of education and not living with a companion. Among the sanitary factors analyzed, the following were risk factors for dengue virus infection: no running water at home; no water supply from the public piped network; no waste from drains or toilets sent to the sewage network; endemic disease combat agents visiting the home; and presence of mosquito breeding sites at home.
    Conclusion: Low schooling levels and previous dengue virus infection were associated with current dengue virus infection.

    Abstract Objective: to describe a COVID-19 cluster and the strategies used to contain the virus, in a municipality in the interior region of Mato Grosso state, Brazil.
    Methods: this is a descriptive study of documental records of an epidemiological investigation conducted in April 2020.
    Results: introduction of SARS-CoV-2 in the municipality was identified through a cluster comprised of five people, 4 were symptomatic and 1 was asymptomatic, after the virus was imported by index cases C01 and C02; in addition to household transmission (C03, C04), a physiotherapist (C05) was infected through contact with C02; with the exception of C04, all had an influenza-like symptoms and C02 required hospitalization; as for laboratory tests, all were seroreactive and C01 was RT-PCR positive.
    Conclusion: dissemination of COVID-19 was contained by effective home isolation, an important instrument that should be adopted early by unaffected municipalities to contain virus dissemination, as well as by serological testing that detected infection in asymptomatic patients.

    Abstract RESUMEN Introducción: La expansión de Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) en nuevos territorios representa un gran desafío para la salud pública en el mundo, especialmente para países como Brasil, debido a sus amplias extensiones territoriales y desigualdades regionales. Objetivos: Describir, durante la pandemia, el brote de COVID-19 en una población sin hogar en el interior de Mato Grosso, Brasil. Métodos: Estudio descriptivo sobre un brote de COVID-19 en el interior del estado de Mato Grosso. Los datos fueron recolectados de los registros documentales de la investigación epidemiológica municipal, en línea con el Sistema Único de Salud. Resultados: Del caso índice, una persona en situación de calle que fue trasladada al albergue municipal de Tangará da Serra/Mato Grosso, 47 personas infectadas por Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) fueron confirmadas por pruebas serológicas y/o moleculares: (i) en el albergue: 8 personas en situación de calle y 5 empleados; (ii) contacto con el hogar de los empleados: 3 miembros de la familia; (iii) en la unidad hospitalaria: 19 profesionales y 6 pacientes en la unidad de cuidados intensivos. Conclusiones: La falta de protección individual fue un factor decisivo para la infección por SARS-CoV-2 en el caso índice y se extendió en el albergue por la participación de contactos en el hogar. Además de los profesionales en el entorno hospitalario, donde el brote se produjo debido a factores estructurales, la falta de equipos de protección personal adecuados y la falta de una cuidadosa adopción de la bioseguridad.

    Abstract Meat and meat products can be contaminated by physical hazards, which are a big concern for meat industries. The incidence of physical hazards in meat products from 2016 to 2018 in Brazil have been investigated through a website (Reclame Aqui) used by consumers to express their dissatisfaction. A total of 408 consumers' complaints were found involving the presence of physical hazards in meat and meat products. The greatest percentage of complaints was found in sausages (fresh, dried, and cooked sausages such as Linguiça Calabresa, Linguiça Portuguesa, and Linguiça Toscana, among others; 33.33%) followed by hamburgers (17.89%), fresh chicken meat (12.25%), and chicken nuggets (9.80%). Fewer consumers’ complaints were found in fresh pork meat (0.49%), fresh bovine meat (0.49%), and chopped ham (0.49%). The presence of bones (26.96%) was the major physical hazard found in meat products followed by plastic (25.24%), insect (11.26%), and metal (8.82%). Results indicated that even with quality programs implemented in the industry such as Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points, Good Manufacturing Practices and Good Hygienic Practices, sometimes failures on processing line, packaging, commercialization, and service inspection can happen. Nonetheless, in order to detect physical hazards in meat products, the use of new technologies such as metal detector, sensors, and X-ray equipment by meat processors is extremely recommended.

    Abstract The aim of this work was to evaluate the cognitive, language, and motor development, after 18 months of life, of nonmicrocephalic children born to mothers with Zika virus infection during pregnancy. Participants were 37 children aged 18-29 months divided into 2 groups: 17 nonmicrocephalic children born to mothers who had Zika virus infection during pregnancy (ZIKVG) and 20 nonmicrocephalic children with no maternal history of infection matched by sex and age (control group). A semistructured interview and the Bayley Scale of Infant and Toddler Development (Bayley III) were used for their evaluation. One child in the ZIKVG presented low cognitive score, the same in the control group. There were no statistical differences between the 2 groups regarding cognitive, language, and motor development. This sample, although small, showed that a significant proportion of nonmicrocephalic children exposed prenatally to Zika virus had normal development. A longer follow-up is necessary to observe if no other adverse outcomes will appear in the future.

    Abstract Resumo Objetivo: descrever um cluster da COVID-19 e as estratégias utilizadas para a contenção do vírus, num município do interior de Mato Grosso, Brasil. Métodos: estudo descritivo com dados dos registros documentais da investigação epidemiológica realizada em abril de 2020. Resultados: a introdução do vírus SARS-CoV-2 no município foi identificada a partir do cluster com cinco pessoas, sendo quatro sintomáticas e uma assintomática, consequente à importação pelos casos índices C01 e C02; além da transmissão intradomiciliar (C03 e C04), uma fisioterapeuta (C05) foi infectada por C02; com exceção do C04, todos apresentaram um quadro influenza símile e somente C02 necessitou de internação; quanto aos testes laboratoriais, todos foram sororreativos, e somente C01 foi RT-PCR positivo. Conclusão: a disseminação da COVID-19 foi contida pelo isolamento domiciliar, uma importante estratégia que deve ser adotada precocemente pelos municípios indenes na contenção da disseminação viral, e pelo teste sorológico, que detectou a infecção em assintomáticos.
