Objective:
to present and discuss the advancement of science in symptom management through research involving oncological symptom clusters (OSC).
Method:
a reflective study, supported by the scientific literature on OSC.
Results:
five key points are crucial to advancing the science of symptom management through research involving OSC: definition of OSC characteristics; underlying mechanisms and priority symptom clusters; OSC measurement; targeted and personalized interventions; new analytical strategies.
Final considerations:
a better understanding of the complex connections between different systems and biobehavioral aspects in patients, especially in the field of oncology nursing, is urgent. The study of these interactions has become increasingly promising and emerging for oncology nursing, since therapeutic interventions, whose target is the neuroimmunoendocrine axis, are relevant for personalized care, translating into greater scientific and nurse autonomy to care for patients.

Objectives:
to understand the relationship between workloads and institutional violence in Family Health Strategy managers’ practice.
Methods:
qualitative research using theoretical triangulation and data from semi-structured interviews. Participants were 35 managers of Basic Health Units in the five Regions of Brazil, who worked in the Family Health Strategy. We used thematic analysis and ATLAS.ti for data analysis.
Results:
workloads were analyzed, showing relationships with institutional violence. Thematic categories emerged: “related to the management work itself”; “related to other instances of health system management”; “related to users and community”. There was an interrelationship between increased managers’ workloads and institutional violence.
Final Considerations:
the Family Health Strategy is relevant for universal access to health and requires favorable institutional conditions for its effectiveness. Adverse scenarios lead to increased workloads, approaching institutional violence.

Objectives:
to analyze nursing vulnerability through photos released by the media amidst the COVID-19 pandemic.
Methods:
a documentary study, with a qualitative approach. The object of analysis were photographic images selected between January 2020 and March 2021, published by the main news portals in countries such as Brazil, the United States, France, Spain, England and Germany. Thematic categorical analysis was the method of analysis used.
Results:
we found 74 photographs that portrayed nursing professionals in different work situations. It was possible to identify stigma and social devaluation about this class’s representation and professional attribution. Moreover, we found an underrepresentation of black professionals in Brazilian portals and the man as the prominent figure in the spaces of claims.
Final Considerations:
the photographs represented an important tool for the social analysis of nursing vulnerability, favoring the unveiling of situations that may go unnoticed by nursing and society.

Objectives:
to understand how people living with HIV who have abandoned treatment face their health condition.
Methods:
a qualitative study, based on the Chronic Care Model theoretical precepts. Data were collected between April and August 2021, through interviews with 24 people registered in a specialized service in the Brazilian Midwest.
Results:
coping with the health condition included good and bad moments and is influenced by individual behaviors and the way in which the network was organized. Treatment abandonment was motivated by the absence of signs and symptoms, the way care is provided and medication side effects.
Final Considerations:
care actions focusing on behavior change and maintenance become necessary in order to favor continuity of treatment. Furthermore, the gaps identified in the way health services are organized are subject to intervention.

Objective:
to analyze the meaning of the social networks of adolescents who are under probation and to identify the essential components of these networks.
Method:
an exploratory study with a qualitative approach. Twenty-six teenagers, aged 13 to 18, participated in the study. For data gathering, the authors chose semi-structured interviews and network maps. Results: it became evident that social networks are essential for adolescents, with the family in a central position – especially the mothers – as well as the Centro de Referência Especializadode Assistência Social (Center for Specialized Reference of Social Assistance – CREAS) for social promotion and construction of new life projects, away from juvenile offending. However, adolescents reported no ties to health workers.
Conclusion:
the authors observed the need for nurses, as workers in primary health care, to practice in a way that is intersectoral and interdisciplinary, with the aim of strengthening the social networks of adolescents at conflict with the law.

Objective:
identify the senses and practices representative of humanization in the training of undergraduate nursing students.
Method:
a qualitative study, supported on the national policy of humanization and the concept of social representation. An interview was conducted with 40 undergraduate nursing students from a public institution. ALCESTE software was used for lexical content analysis.
Results:
the sense of humanization is built on the practice and disciplines of social and human sciences. The coordination between theory and practice is representative of humanization, but does not take place in learning experiences. The professor’s participation and teamwork are elements that influence humanization.
Conclusion:
humanization should be reinforced in the training of undergraduate nursing students, using learning-teaching strategies and experiences that make sense to students, including alliances between theory and practice, learning and service, research and care.

Objective:
to unveil the existential movement of a couple when performing vertical HIV transmission prophylaxis.
Method:
qualitative research, using Martin Heidegger’s phenomenological approach. A phenomenological interview was conducted with 14 participants between December/2011 and February/2012 in the outpatient facilities of an university hospital, Brazil. A comprehensive and interpretative heideggerian analysis was developed.
Results:
the couple understands that they have followed the guidance of the health professionals as indicated. By not being able to breastfeed, the woman did not fail to be a mother, but it was also not a complete experience. The senses of the occupation of the couple-being unfolded to the prophylactic treatment and facticity due to the fact of not breastfeeding.
Conclusion:
we indicate the need to rethink care, proposing a working relationship that transcends the impersonal that dictates about what the couple must deal with, enabling their active participation in care decisions and actions.

Objective:
to investigate the existence of a relationship between attitudinal profiles and the pleasure/suffering dynamic in workers of Mental Health Services.
Method:
a quantitative, descriptive-analytical, correlational and cross-sectional study conducted in 2014. We used three instruments: characterization questionnaire, Opinions on Mental Illness Scale and Pleasure and Suffering Indicators at Work Scale, answered by 80 workers of the Network for Psychosocial Care of Alfenas, state of Minas Gerais, Brazil.
Results:
Authoritarianism proved to be the predominant profile. As for the pleasure/suffering at work, Gratification was considered adequate, and indicators such as Freedom, Wear and Insecurity were considered moderate critical. There were positive correlations between the most favorable attitudes and pleasure indicators at work. The values of both scales showed a relationship with socio-demographic and professional variables.
Conclusion:
the less favorable attitudes are prevalent and, in spite of suffering being present, these professionals feel gratified about their work.

Objective:
To analyze overweight in young adult students from the individual dimension of vulnerability, especially its interpersonal and subjective markers.
Method:
An analytical quantitative study was performed with 560 young adults from 26 schools in a capital city in Northeastern Brazil. After obtaining data to administer specific questionnaires, logistic regression was used to identify markers of individual vulnerability.
Results:
In the bivariate analysis, overweight showed a statistically significant association with self-perception of health, satisfaction with body image and self-perception of overweight, the latter remaining in the final regression model.
Conclusion:
It can be mainly concluded that self-perception of overweight is distorted when compared to one’s actual body weight and, for this reason, young adults are vulnerable to dysfunctional health states. However, it was confirmed that this health condition must be understood in an individual and contextual perspective.

Objective:
to analyze the spatial-temporal pattern of childbirths and flow of postpartum women assisted at a regional reference maternity hospital.
Methods:
ecological study of 4,081 childbirths, between September 2018 and December 2021, at a public maternity hospital in the Baixo Tocantins region, Pará, Brazil. With data collected from five sources, a geographic database was constructed, and spatial analysis was used with Kernel density interpolator. Maps were generated using QGis/3.5 and TerraView/4.3, calculating chi-square (p<0.05).
Results:
the highest concentrations of normal and cesarean childbirths were observed in Barcarena (n=2,558/62.68%), Abaetetuba (n=750/18.38%), Moju (n=363/8.89%) and Igarapé-Miri (n=219/5.37%). Among the municipalities in the region, ten had obstetric beds, totaling 210 beds. In this scenario, postpartum women traveled up to 288 km to reach the maternity hospital.
Conclusions:
long distances between certain municipalities of residence and maternity hospital, and low supply of obstetric beds, were identified as risk factors for unfavorable obstetric outcomes.

Objective:
to assess pain management in infants in a Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) and discuss its articulation with the Sustainable Development Goals, with a focus on promoting neonatal well-being.
Method:
a documentary study, retrospective in nature and quantitative approach, conducted in a NICU of a public hospital in Paraná, Brazil, between January and July 2022, with 386 medical records of infants, hospitalized for more than 24 hours, between 2019 and 2021. Data were subjected to descriptive and inferential analysis, considering p-value<0.05 as a statistical difference. National ethical guidelines were respected.
Results:
all infants underwent at least one painful procedure, but only 13.7% had documented pain. Pharmacological interventions, such as fentanyl (25.9%), and non-pharmacological interventions, such as breastfeeding encouragement (86%) were used. Only 2.8% were reassessed.
Conclusion:
there was a devaluation of neonatal pain management that may perpetuate neonatal well-being and sustainable development.

Objective:
To assess the morbidity profile and identify factors associated with frailty syndrome in post-COVID-19 elderly patients treated at the only Reference Center for Elderly Health Care in northern Minas Gerais.
Methods:
This is a case series study, utilizing the Clinical-Functional Vulnerability Index-20 (CFVI-20) and Comprehensive Geriatric Assessment (CGA) to characterize and evaluate the health condition of the group. To define the variables associated with frailty, a multivariate analysis was conducted.
Results:
The study included 204 elderly individuals, with a predominance of females (63.7%). The variables associated with frailty were cognitive impairment (OR: 2.95; 95% CI: 1.12-7.80; p=0.029), the presence of five or more comorbidities (OR: 11.55; 95% CI: 2.22-60.01; p=0.004), and impairment in instrumental activities of daily living (OR: 41.97; 95% CI: 5.47-321.93; p<0.001).
Conclusions:
The results of this study highlight the need for a well-established and prepared coordination of integrated care to meet the demands of the post-COVID-19 elderly population.
