Objetivos:
investigar los factores que influyen en la vacilación ante la vacuna contra la COVID-19 entre los brasileños.
Métodos:
esta investigación empleó un enfoque observacional y analítico, utilizando una encuesta en línea. La recolección de datos se llevó a cabo en 2020 y el análisis de los datos se realizó utilizando el modelado de ecuaciones estructurales.
Resultados:
la prevalencia de la vacilación ante la vacuna fue del 27,5% (1182 individuos). Existe una correlación negativa entre la creencia en teorías de conspiración y la influencia social. Entre las diversas creencias asociadas con las intenciones de vacunación, solo las creencias en conspiraciones mostraron un valor predictivo significativo. Así, los resultados sugieren que las creencias personales impactan significativamente la vacilación ante la vacunación y también indican que la confianza en los órganos gubernamentales está inversamente relacionada con la vacilación.
Conclusiones:
la vacilación ante la vacuna emerge como un fenómeno multifacético influenciado por una amplia gama de factores, incluyendo las creencias personales, la confianza en los órganos gubernamentales y los sistemas de salud.

Objectives:
to investigate the factors influencing vaccine hesitancy against COVID-19 among Brazilians.
Methods:
this research employed an observational and analytical approach, utilizing a web-based survey. Data collection took place in 2020, and data analysis was conducted using structural equation modeling.
Results:
the prevalence of vaccine hesitancy was found to be 27.5% (1182 individuals). There is a negative correlation between belief in conspiracy theories and social influence. Among the various beliefs associated with vaccination intentions, only conspiracy beliefs exhibited significant predictive value. Thus, the findings suggest that personal beliefs significantly impact hesitancy towards vaccination, and also indicate that trust in governmental bodies is inversely related to hesitancy.
Conclusions:
vaccine hesitancy emerges as a multifaceted phenomenon influenced by a complex array of factors, including personal beliefs, trust in governmental bodies, and healthcare systems.

Objectives:
to understand nurse perspectives regarding homeless pregnant women’s accessibility to prenatal care.
Methods:
a qualitative study, with analysis based on the concept of accessibility. Semi-structured interviews were carried out with 11 nurses who work at the Street Outreach Office in northern Brazil.
Results:
nurses are faced with geographic barriers and dangerous situations in border regions, recognizing that there is a context of physical, sexual and psychological violence that involves homeless pregnant women who seek care at the Street Outreach Office. Street Outreach Office nurses’ work occurs in conjunction with other services in the Health Care Network. The implementation of educational measures is a powerful strategy, as is establishing links with women.
Final Considerations:
the Street Outreach Office’s work provides meetings with pregnant women on site in the territory, which can provide geographic and socio-organizational accessibility to prenatal care.

Objectives:
to evaluate the relative risk of smoking cessation treatment dropout during its intensive phase.
Methods:
a retrospective and quantitative cohort study was developed from the electronic medical records of individuals who started smoking cessation treatment between 2015 and 2019 at a specialty clinic in a city in the interior of São Paulo, Brazil. The relative risk of dropping out of treatment was calculated using the Poisson regression model.
Results:
it was observed that out of the 396 (100.0%) individuals who started the treatment, 109 (27.5%) abandoned it before the end of the intensive phase. For each one-year increase in age, the risk of dropping out of smoking cessation treatment decreased by an average of 2%.
Conclusions:
the risk of dropping out of smoking cessation treatment is higher among younger individuals. It is necessary to rethink the care offered to younger adults to promote the continuity of treatment.
