Objective:
To build and validate a clinical simulation scenario for teaching Nursing students about early recognition of signs and symptoms of sepsis in the context of the emergency unit.
Methods:
Methodological study developed in two phases: construction of a simulated scenario and content validation by expert judges. For data analysis, the Content Validity Index (CVI) was calculated considering agreement equal to or greater than 80%. The minimum acceptable CVI value for scenario validation was 1.0.
Results:
The simulation scenario proved to be appropriate, with a global Content Validity Index equal to 1. Some adjustments related to the clarity of the wording were necessary, as suggested by the judges. Conclusions: A medium-complexity, high-fidelity scenario was successfully constructed and validated for teaching early recognition of sepsis signs and symptoms.

Objective:
To analyze the role of Family Health Strategy (FHS) nurses in the health care of LGBT+ individuals.
Methods:
This qualitative study is based on Institutional Analysis. Data was collected in August 2021 through semi-structured interviews with 14 Family Health Strategy nurses from municipalities in the state of São Paulo. The data was processed using the IRaMuTeQ® software and analyzed lexically.
Results:
The textual corpus gave rise to three themes, which addressed the nurses’ practice, the difficulties and challenges they face in providing care to LGBT+ individuals, and the direct association of LGBT+ individuals with sexually transmitted infections.
Conclusion:
Lack of preparedness, access to information, and the need for expanded listening skills are still gaps in the performance of FHS nurses in caring for LGBT+ individuals. However, fostering acceptance and building strong relationships have been effective strategies in bridging the gap in nursing care for the LGBT+ community.

Objective:
To investigate the association of sociodemographic and occupational characteristics with a high level of perceived stress in motorcycle taxi drivers.
Method:
Cross-sectional study carried out with motorcycle taxi drivers who answered instruments on sociodemographic and occupational variables – Perceived Stress Scale, Job Content Questionnaire and Effort-Reward Imbalance. Descriptive statistics, Pearson’s chi-square test and Poisson regression with robust variance were used. Statistical significance was 5%.
Results:
Of the 800 motorcycle taxi drivers, 46.8% had a high level of perceived stress. In the multivariate analysis, a high level of stress was associated with low control over work (PR=7.76; 95%CI=5.19-11.61), low social support at work (PR=3.87; 95%CI =2.95 5.08), working hours longer than eight hours a day (RP=1.47; 95%CI=1.21-1.78) and monthly income less than or equal to two minimum wages (PR=1.34;95%CI=1.13-2.58).
Conclusion:
Long working hours, occupational stressors and low income were associated with a high level of perceived stress. Public policies and interventions to minimize occupational stressors are essential.

Results:
participants were 57 nurses who acted as coordinators of Primary Care. They considered the educational intervention in social skills fundamental for positive changes in their professional performance.
Final considerations:
the educational intervention in social skills was assessed as an important strategy to strengthen the development of nurses’ managerial and care skills.

Methods:
an ecological study, carried out in Guinea-Bissau, considering new cases of tuberculosis. Spatial analysis of areas was used to verify tuberculosis distribution in the country, and time series were used to identify incidence evolution over the years of study.
Results:
a total of 6,840 new cases of tuberculosis were reported. Tuberculosis incidence rate in the country ranged from 36.8 to 267.7 cases/100,000 inhabitants, with emphasis on the regions of Bissau and Biombo (over 90 cases/100,000). By using time series, it was possible to observe an increase in case incidence over the years of study.
Conclusions:
the study made it possible to identify the epidemiological profile of tuberculosis in Guinea-Bissau, spatial distribution heterogeneity, in addition to identifying the disease evolution over the years of investigation.

Objective:
To map the evidence on self-care guidelines for patients in the post-hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) period.
Method:
Scoping review supported by Joanna Briggs Institute recommendations, with searches conducted between March and April 2022 in national and international databases and repositories of theses and dissertations.
Results:
Of the 11 studies that composed the final sample, the guidelines had a social and personal aspect, as post-transplant patients need to follow numerous essential recommendations for the prevention of infections and complications for successful treatment and improved quality of life.
Conclusion:
Knowing the self-care guidelines that must be performed by post-HSCT patients is fundamental for the nursing team to provide the necessary information for care outside the controlled environment of the hospital, in addition to minimizing episodes of infection, death, and increasing the survival and quality of life of transplant recipients.

Results:
The central category “Understanding about the Nursing Process in Nursing Homes” emerged, which was unitized into two units of meaning and three categories of analysis.
Conclusion:
Data revealed non-use and lack of knowledge of the Nursing Process before awareness raising. Afterwards, a deeper understanding of the topic and its importance was identified. Awareness-raising workshops contribute to transformation of knowledge.

Objective:
To describe the possibility of applying Fuzzy Logic in analyzing the vulnerability of Women Who Have Sex with Women to Sexually Transmitted Infections/HIV/AIDS.
Methods:
We developed a Fuzzy Logic system with 17 input variables and one output variable, using data related to vulnerability in a municipality located in the Midwest region of the State of São Paulo, Brazil.
Results:
The factor with the greatest positive impact was the confirmation that a low understanding of Sexually Transmitted Infections/HIV/AIDS is associated with higher vulnerability. Conversely, the statement “Not disclosing sexual activity to healthcare professionals,” where individuals do not admit to having sex with women, had the least impact.
Conclusions:
Fuzzy Logic facilitates the identification of vulnerability, expressed through the analysis of interaction between variables in each dimension. This makes it a promising method to assist in analyzing the vulnerability of specific populations.

Objectives:
to analyze the trends and factors associated with family refusal of skin donation for transplantation.
Methods:
this cross-sectional study was conducted in the State of São Paulo, with family authorization terms collected from 2001 to 2020. The variables analyzed included year, age, gender, cause of death, and type of institution. Data were analyzed using linear and multiple logistic regression, with the Odds Ratio estimated at p<0.05 for statistical significance.
Results:
1,355 individuals refused skin donation. The trend of refusals decreased between 2001 and 2009 in the age groups of 0-11 years and 12-19 years, but increased in the group aged ≥60 years. This trend continued to decrease in the 0-11 years group from 2010 to 2020, and increased in the 20-40 years group. Males and the age groups of 20-40 years, 41-59 years, and ≥60 years exhibited 27%, 34%, 47%, and 53% lower chances of refusal, respectively.
Conclusions:
there is an urgent need for measures to mitigate the high number of refusals associated with skin donation.

Objective:
to identify the factors associated with lack of anticipated support for care for community-dwelling older adults.
Method:
this study presents comparison and logistic regression analyses of data from 671 individuals who took part of the multicentric study entitled “Frailty in older Brazilians” – a quantitative, epidemiologic and transversal investigation carried out between 2008 and 2009.
Results:
the subjective evaluation of anticipated support for care for community-dwelling older adults was a good indicator of risk for lack of anticipated support for care in women, older adults who live alone and those with poor self-rated health.
Conclusion:
it is necessary to reflect upon the formal support system currently available for older people in Brazil, considering that those who most frequently presented lack of anticipated support for care are an increasing population. The study also highlights the importance of using subjective methods for the evaluation of the adequacy of older adults’ support network.
