Objective:
to assess the effect of cardiovascular biofeedback on nursing staff stress when compared to an activity without self-monitoring.
Method:
a randomized controlled clinical trial, carried out with nursing professionals from a university hospital. The intervention group (n=58) performed cardiovascular biofeedback, and the control (n=57) performed an online puzzle without self-monitoring, totaling nine meetings over three weeks. The outcome was assessed using the Stress Symptoms and Work-Related Stress scales, and the biological marker heart rate variability. The generalized estimating equations method was used.
Results:
the intervention had no effect on self-reported instruments (p>0.050). However, there was an effect of time (p<0.050) on all heart rate variability indicators, demonstrating changes over the sessions.
Conclusion:
cardiovascular biofeedback showed promising results in the biological marker, suggesting that it can be used in nursing staff as a complementary therapy by promoting better autonomic nervous system regulation.

Objectives:
to estimate the prevalence of depressive levels and their associated factors among transvestite and transsexual individuals.
Methods:
this cross-sectional study involved 58 participants assisted by non-governmental organizations. The Beck Depression Inventory was utilized to assess levels of depression, complemented by a sociodemographic questionnaire and a questionnaire on experiences of violence. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and Poisson regression with robust variance.
Results:
a prevalence of 27.6% (95% CI = 11.50-39.10) for moderate to severe levels of depression was observed. This prevalence was associated with being unmarried (PR = 1.19; 95% CI = 1.10-1.28) and experiencing violence in healthcare services (PR = 2.30; 95% CI = 1.10-4.81).
Conclusions:
the absence of a partner and experiences of violence in healthcare settings negatively impacted mental health, leading to an increased prevalence of depressive symptoms among transvestite and transsexual individuals. Advocating for transgender rights and providing ongoing education in health care for professionals are critical strategies in promoting the mental health of this population.

On average, dairy product (M=5.61; SD=2.62) and meat/fish/egg (M=4.80; SD=3.57) consumption was higher than recommended, while fat (M=0.48; SD=0.40), legume (M=0.49; SD=0.45), vegetable (M=1.18; SD=0.87) and water (M=0 .51; SD=0.29) consumption was lower.
Conclusions:
there was a higher or lower consumption than recommended for some foods, highlighting the need to implement nursing intervention programs aimed at promoting healthy eating habits in toddlers and families.

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.
