Objective:
to assess psychological distress in nurses searching for their first job, especially symptoms of depression, and identify the factors that caused mental suffering, and how these nurses cope with the situation.
Method:
this was a qualitative study carried out with unemployed nurses who had graduated less than two years before the time of the study, and were residents of the town of Assis in the Brazilian state of São Paulo. Data were gathered by means of semi-structured interviews, content analysis, and application of the Beck Depression Inventory psychometric scale.
Results:
of the 14 nurses that participated, three had scores on the psychometric scale indicative of depression. Participants reported psychological distress related to unemployment, poor university education, and surplus labor due to the large number of graduates and lack of jobs, as well as a culture of employment centered on professionals’ social networks. The unemployed nurses did not have effective ways of coping.
Conclusion:
unemployment promoted psychological distress among the new nurses, especially symptoms of depression, without effective means of coping.

Objectives:
to describe the scientific evidence on the use of auriculotherapy to reduce chronic musculoskeletal pain in adults and the elderly.
Methods:
integrative literature review conducted in the Latin American and Caribbean Health Sciences, SciVerse Scopus and MEDLINE databases (via National Library of Medicine), in March 2019, with no time frame.
Results:

Objective:
To analyze information on resource allocation in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic, published in indexed scientific journals, from December 2019 to March 2020.
Methods:
This is an integrative literature review, which took place in March 2020. All databases were investigated and studies were found only in MEDLINE. After applying the established criteria, six articles were selected.
Results:
It was evident that the allocation of resources is carried out as the demands emerge. The fragility in presenting scientific-methodological evidence that can guide decision makers for assertive allocation of available resources is highlighted. The results showed that studies on this subject are incipient and need to be expanded.
Final considerations:
The need for health organizations and area authorities to be better prepared for the proper use of available resources, with allocation based on scientific evidence and maximization of resources is indicated.

Objective:
To discuss the political and structural conditions for establishing the Unified Health System (UHS – Sistema Único de Saúde, SUS) in coping with the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic.
Methods:
Theoretical-reflection study.
Results:
At the first moment named “The global and the local in facing the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic” is presented the health crisis that took place worldwide and the government actions to combat COVID-19. A second moment named “Between dismantling actions and resistance, the UHS is the best way to face the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic”, reflects on the neoliberal attacks on the health system and how it resists, remaining the main pandemic response strategy.
Conclusion:
The strengthening of democracy and the defense of the UHS are the way out of the crisis. It is believed that this reflection generates – in everyone who deals with caretaking – the political action, the ethical attitude, the desire for valorization and the spirit of struggle in defense of the UHS and human life.

Objective:
to evaluate the quality of life of primary care nurses in the climacteric.
Method:
A cross-sectional descriptive-analytic study, performed with 98 female nurses, aged 40-65 years, using the WHOQOL-Bref questionnaire.
Results:
the worst level of quality of life was observed for professionals aged 50-59 years, non-white, specialists, divorced or widowed, with children, a lower income, with another employment relationship, a weekly workload of more than 40 hours, who consumed alcoholic beverages weekly, with chronic disease, in continuous use of medications, sedentary, who did not menstruate and did not receive hormonal treatment, and who went through menopause between the ages of 43-47 years.
Conclusion:
Although the variables “physical activity” and “age” have a statistically significant association with quality of life, other variables seem to interfere in these professionals’ lives, indicating the need for a more critical and deep reflection on these relations.
