Objective:
to understand the transitional processes that affect the adaptation of people who live with limitations resulting from leprosy.
Methods:
This is a qualitative study based on the precepts of Transition Theory, mediated by care-research, with 24 people with limitations resulting from leprosy in an ex-hospital colony in Piauí. Semi-structured interviews were carried out. The interviews were analyzed using Iramuteq software.
Results:
the researched-caregivers experienced the four types of transitions, including feelings of fear, worry, loneliness, hopelessness, guilt and a tendency to hide the diagnosis. Breakdowns and resignation were revealed, with spirituality, adaptation to the new life situation and acceptance as facilitating conditions for coping with the transitional process, with a consequent improvement in quality of life.
Final considerations:
the transitional processes had a positive significance, since they contributed to adaptation and the achievement of quality of life.

Objective:
To verify the temporal trend of neonatal mortality in the health regions of Pernambuco between 2000 and 2020.
Method:
A time-series ecological study was conducted, analyzing the total neonatal mortality rate and its early and late components. For regression analysis, Joinpoint Regression was applied, trends were classified, and annual and average percentage changes were calculated for the period, with a significance level of 95%.
Results:
The average neonatal mortality rate in Pernambuco was 11.5 during the studied period. A decreasing trend in neonatal mortality rate was observed, especially in the early component. The region where the state capital is located showed the fastest decrease across all components.
Conclusion:
The temporal trend of neonatal mortality was decreasing; however, the rate of reduction was not uniform across the health regions of the state, and the implementation of the Mãe Coruja Pernambucana Program did not impact the trend in neonatal mortality.
