Objectives:
to understand the determinants involved in the mental suffering of schoolchildren on the French-Brazilian border.
Methods:
a qualitative study was conducted with children from 6 to 12 years of age from four State schools in the municipality of Oiapoque, located on the French-Brazilian border. The data were obtained through interviews, analyzed by the IRAMUTEQ software, and interpreted in the light of the Dahlgren and Whitehead’s social determinants of health model.
Results:
data indicate that the mental suffering experienced by children, especially characterized by anxious symptoms, such as concern of becoming fat and worries, were permeated by social situations that children went through daily, such as family abandonment, domestic violence, and bullying.
Final Considerations:
social determinants can be predictors of mental suffering in children, especially in environments of extreme vulnerability, such as the border, in a context of financial difficulties, domestic violence, and absence of parenting.

Objectives:
to identify factors associated with the sexual practices and positions performed by pregnant women.
Methods:
a cross-sectional, quantitative study conducted with 354 pregnant women, in the interior of Ceará, Brazil, in 2016. For data collection, a form and a Pregnancy Sexuality Questionnaire were used.
Results:
there was a reduction in the sexual initiative of the woman, sexual disposition of the couple, sexual practices and most of the sexual positions, while the maintenance of preliminary sexual activities and initiative to perform them was verified. Sexual practices and positions decreased (p<0.0001): preliminary sexual activities, sexual disposition, lubrication, orgasm, pain or discomfort, sexual positions, sexual practices, and sexual satisfaction. Sexual practices and positions increased (p<0.0001) as a function of: education, number of deliveries, sexual life, desire and arousal, and sexual disposition of the pregnant woman, frequency of orgasm and of sexual practices (p<0.0001).
Conclusions:
sexual practices and positions of pregnant women were affected by domains of sexual function, sexual, reproductive, physical, and psychological aspects.

Objetivos:
evaluar la relación entre ejercicio físico de ocio y cambio de capacidad funcional entre ancianos.
Métodos:
analizamos datos de una cohorte de ancianos en búsqueda de determinantes de la capacidad funcional en el seguimiento. Datos de la línea de base fueron recolectados entre 2007 y 2008 – acompañamiento mediano de 3,5 años. Fue construido un modelo de regresión linear multivariado completo para evaluar la capacidad funcional al fin del seguimiento, controlando por la capacidad funcional en la línea de base, características sociodemográficas, de salud y conductas y cantidad de ejercicio físico en el período.
Resultados:
el modelo final mostró capacidad funcional independientemente correlacionada con la edad (p<0,001), masa corporal (p=0,013) y número de actividades cotidianas comprometidas en la línea de base (p<0,001). Capacidad funcional mejoró con el aumento del ejercicio físico, pero perdió significación estadística después de ajustes (p=0,384).
Conclusiones:
capacidad funcional disminuyó con el aumento de la edad, el aumento de la perdida de la capacidad funcional en la línea de base y el aumento de la masa corporal. Aunque no significativamente relacionado, el ejercicio físico en el ocio aparece como un importante factor cambiable.

Objectives:
to evaluate the relationship between leisure-time physical activity and functional capacity change among aged people.
Methods:
we analyzed data of an aged cohort looking for determinants of functional capacity at follow-up. Baseline data were collected between 2007 and 2008 – average follow-up of 3,5 years. A full multivariate linear regression model was built to evaluate functional capacity at the end of the follow-up, controlling for functional capacity at baseline, sociodemographic, health and behavioral characteristics and amount of leisure-time physical activity in the period.
Results:
final model showed functional capacity independently correlated with age (p<0.001), body mass (p=0.013) and the number of activities of daily living compromised at baseline (p<0.001). Functional capacity improved with increased physical activity but loss statistical significance after adjustments (p=0.384).
Conclusions:
functional capacity decreases with increased age, increased loss of functional capacity at baseline and increased body mass. Albeit a non-significant association, leisure-time physical activity appears as an important modifiable factor.

Objetivo:
Analizar la situación laboral de las matronas y detectar sus necesidades de medición de cargas de trabajo.
Métodos:
Estudio de metodología mixta (cuantitativo y cualitativo), observacional, descriptivo y transversal. Se realizaron dos fases: La primera fase metodológica, consistió en la realización de entrevistas individuales semiestructuradas. Y en la segunda fase metodológica, se analizaron las intervenciones de enfermería (NIC) que las matronas efectúan en paritorio durante su jornada asistencial.
Resultados:
El 90,3% de las matronas presentan sobrecarga en el trabajo, pues para el 80,6% el ratio matrona- gestante no se encuentra bien establecido; pues tiempo medio de ejecución de una intervención de enfermería (NIC), es de 20 minutos. Por ello, el 100% de la muestra considera de máxima utilidad el desarrollo de herramientas de medición de cargas de trabajo.
Conclusiones:
Se ratifica la necesidad de generar un instrumento que considere la diversidad de intervenciones de enfermería (NIC) que desarrollan dentro del paritorio.

Objectives:
to evaluate hospitalization costs of patients with and without Healthcare-Associated Infections an Intensive Care Unit.
Methods:
a retrospective case-control study. Data collection was retrieved from the medical records of Intensive Care Unit of a medium-sized public hospital in Goiás-Brazil. For each case, two controls were selected. Data on socioeconomic, clinical, and hospital costs were collected. To verify associations between variables, Odds Ratio and linear regression were calculated.
Results:
a total of 21 patients diagnosed with Healthcare-Associated Infections and 42 controls were evaluated. The hospitalization cost for patients with infection was four times higher than for non-infection patients (p-value<0.001). There was an association between infection and higher mortality (p-value <0.001), longer hospital-stay (p-value =0.021), and higher hospital costs (p-value =0.007).
Conclusions:
hospitalization costs of diagnosed Healthcare-Associated Infections patients are high compared to those who do not have this diagnosis.

Objective:
To evaluate stress, and to associate it with sociodemographic and clinical aspects of nurses from the Mobile Emergency Care Service.
Method:
This is an observational, cross-sectional and quantitative study conducted with 123 nurses, who answered a questionnaire to assess sociodemographic and clinical variables, and the Job Stress Scale, which evaluates stress in the workplace.
Results:
The results indicated that most of them were women, 20 to 40 years old, married, without another employment bond and with specialization course. They had low control and low demand at work and performed a passive work. Women reported passive work and high stress levels, while men were equally divided in active and passive work with low stress levels.
Conclusion:
Passive work is harmful to health and it is related to lack of autonomy, decision-making, and social support. It may lead to reduced ability to solve problems faced in daily work routine.

Objectives:
to evaluate the effects of music on the physiological stress and distress of cancer patients being treated in a hospital.
Methods:
quasi-experimental study carried out with cancer patients hospitalized in the nursing wards of a public hospital. There was a single 15-minute intervention using music. It was individual, and headphones were used for patients to listen to three songs chosen by each one. The levels of stress and distress were measured before and after the intervention, using music to analyze the cortisol in the saliva and the answers to the distress thermometer. The significance level of the statistical analysis was 5%, using the non-parametric Wilcoxon test.
Results:
the mean age of the 26 patients was 56 years old. Most were female, white, and had breast cancer. After intervention, there were statistically significant diminutions in both stress and distress — p < 0.001.
Conclusions:
the use of music diminishes the stress and the distress of cancer patients.

Method:
a descriptive qualitative research, of the case study type, with CAPS AD III workers, using as theoretical framework the Psychodynamics of Work.
Results:
CAPS AD III professionals identify that the suffering in the work arises from the frustration between the real and the prescribed one; by the hegemony of practices guided by the biomedical model; stigmatization and prejudice with users; and the limitations of the Health Care Network (Rede de Atenção à Saúde). As an individual defense strategy, the rationalization was defined, and as a collective strategy, the protection strategy.
Final considerations:
worker uses strategies of defenses to face suffering and give a new meaning to it, characterizing themselves as ways of apprehending, understanding and giving meaning and new looks to their work.
