Em 2008, o Brasil adotou a política de erradicação do sub-registro civil de nascimento e de promoção do acesso à documentação básica. Passados 10 anos de atividades, diz-se que o país erradicou o sub-registro civil de nascimento, embora os dados mostrem que cerca de 1% das crianças nascidas no país permanecem sem registro. Considerando que o registro civil de nascimento é um direito humano que garante o exercício dos demais direitos e, sabendo que os esforços brasileiros para erradicação do sub-registro têm sido considerados exitosos, este artigo analisa os 10 anos da política nacional sob a perspectiva das políticas públicas em direitos humanos, identificando, ainda, os impactos da descentralização da política nos órgãos públicos no alcance das metas estabelecidas no decênio 2008-2018. Conclui que as ações coletivas, a padronização documental e dos sistemas de informação contribuíram para o sucesso dessa política pública; no entanto, permanecem os desafios de registro civil de nascimento dos chamados grupos prioritários. A metodologia de pesquisa consiste em revisão bibliográfica e análise de dados estatísticos oficiais do governo brasileiro.Palavras-chave: Registro civil de nascimento. Brasil.

After 10 years of activities, the country is considered to have eradicated birth under-registration, although data shows that about 1% of children born in the country remain unregistered. Considering that birth registration is a human right that guarantees the exerciseof other rights, and knowing that Brazilian efforts to eradicate under-registration have been considered successful, this article analyzes the 10 years of the national policy from the perspective of human rights policies, also identifying the impacts of policy decentralization on public agencies in achieving the goals established for the 2008-2018 decade. In conclusion, collective actions,document standardization and information systems contributed to the success of such policy. However, the challenges of birth registration of the so-called priority groups still remain. The research methodology consists of literature review and the analysis of official statistical data of the Brazilian government.Keywords: Civil registry. Brazil. Public policies.

The objective of this work was to investigate the influence of water spray treatment before broiler slaughtering on the quality of breast meat (Pectoralis major) and to observe ultrastructural changes promoted by the biochemical/physiological events during rigor mortis onset. Commercial Ross chickens were divided into two groups: Untreated Group (UG) (n = 608) and Treated Group (TG) (n = 611), without and with water shower treatment, respectively. Drip and cook losses, pH and color measured after 24 h postmortem demonstrated that antemortem water shower treatment inhibited PSE development in chicken breast meat. Histological studies of the PSE samples from UG birds after 72 h postmortem revealed under light microscopy a shrinking of muscle cell diameter by approximately 10% in relation to TG samples and an extracellular enlargement of endomysium and perimysium sheaths. By electron microscopy of PSE meat, Z-lines appeared fragmented, A-bands including the M-line disappeared and a super-contraction of sarcomeres was observed, indicating that proteins were adversely affected by heat stress.
