O objetivo deste artigo foi analisar a produção científica relacionada aos acidentes de trânsito envolvendo ciclistas. Realizou-se um estudo bibliométrico na Medical Literature Analysis and Retrievel System Online, Literatura Latino-americana e do Caribe em Ciências da Saúde, Scientific Electronic Library Online e Science Direct, com delimitação temporal entre 2015 e 2022. Entre os resultados encontrados é possível destacar o aumento de estudos sobre bicicleta e sinistro de trânsito ao longo dos anos. Dentre os países que mais pesquisam, aparecem os Estados Unidos da América, seguidos da Suécia, China e Espanha. Entre as sete temáticas encontradas, houve ênfase para os estudos que envolvem aspectos socioculturais. Concluiu-se que as produções científicas sobre a temática são expressivas, o que reforça o interesse dos pesquisadores e a sua importância para a saúde pública. Palavras-chave: Acidentes de trânsito; Bicicleta, Ciclistas.

Health crises, such as the COVID-19 pandemic, challenge health systems in demonstrating resilience-the ability to cope with change, manage challenges, and adapt in order to retain their effectiveness. Understanding how such challenges affect and produce reactions in those involved in this response is extremely important. This study evaluated resilience in three referral hospitals in the city of Recife, Pernambuco, Brazil-one public, one private, and one philanthropic hospital-by examining the coping activities adopted by the nursing staff working on the COVID-19 frontline. A multiple case study was carried out, using a qualitative approach, triangulating data from direct observations, document analysis, and interviews with 21 nursing professionals working in management and care provision. Data were collected from April to October 2020. The interviews were transcribed and analyzed based on the resilience categories defined by Blanchet (2017): absorption capacity, adaptive capacity, and transformative capacity. Four themes were considered relevant to the objectives of this study: institutional support, access to personal protective equipment (PPE), work relationships, and fear and mental health. Adaptive capacity was demonstrated concerning the four themes analyzed, absorption capacity was demonstrated in two themes, and no transformative capacity was identified. The study highlighted that the health crisis was challenging for all the hospitals studied, regardless of their legal-administrative status. No differences were observed among them in terms of resilience.

The analysis of hospital resilience is essential in understanding how health services prepared for and responded to sudden shocks and unexpected challenges in the COVID-19 health crisis. This study aimed to analyze the resilience of a referral hospital in the state of Pernambuco, Brazil, in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic. The main theoretical approach based on resilience is the system’s capacity to maintain essential functions and to absorb, adapt, and transform in the face of unprecedented or unexpected changes. A single case study approach was used to identify the strengths and weaknesses of this response capacity. Data triangulation was employed. Data were collected from April (beginning of case discharges) to October 2020 (decrease in the moving average of cases in 2020). A content analysis was then conducted. Data were analyzed in relation to context, effects, strategies, and impacts in facing the disruptions caused by the pandemic. The results indicated the occurrence of four configurations mostly favorable to hospital resilience during the study period. Among the main strengths were: injection of financial resources; implementation of new hospital protocols; formation of a support network; equipping and continuing education of professionals; and proactive leadership. Weaknesses found in the analysis included: initial insufficiency of personal protective equipment and confirmatory tests; difficulties in restructuring work schedules; increasing illness among professionals; stress generated by constant changes and work overload; sense of discrimination for being a health professional; lack of knowledge about the clinical management of the disease; and the reduction of non-COVID assistance services.

Objetivo: descrever as percepções sobre estresse ocupacional de enfermeiros que atuaram em Unidades de Terapia Intensiva com pacientes infectados pela COVID-19. Materiais e Métodos: estudo descritivo-exploratório, de abordagem qualitativa, com 29 enfermeiros atuantes em cinco Unidades de Terapia Intensiva públicas e privadas de referência para a COVID-19 em Pernambuco, Estado do Nordeste brasileiro. As entrevistas foram realizadas entre maio e setembro de 2020, sendo audiogravadas e, posteriormente, transcritas. A análise foi feita utilizando-se a condensação de significados. Resultados: a presença dos temas estresse, medo, insegurança, desestímulo, despreparo, falta de estrutura e cansaço foi constatada, com destaque para os fatores estresse e angústia. Não obstante, demonstrou-se, também, preocupação com a família, tanto pelo fato do isolamento quanto pelo risco de contaminação, além do medo do isolamento social. Considerações Finais: evidenciados resultados que demonstraram a necessidade de intensificar a oferta de tratamentos psicológicos destinados à prevenção e à promoção da saúde mental dos enfermeiros.

With the modernization of technology, new virtual forms of violence have emerged and old ways of perpetrating violence against women have been exacerbated with the use of the internet and social networks. This study aimed to investigate the forms of violence against women on the internet. This is an integrative literature review of the electronc databases SciVerse Scopus, Medical Literature Analysis and Retrieval System Online and Scientific Electronic Library Online. The inclusion criteria were publications that occurred in the time span from January 2016 to July 2021, with the descriptors "Violence," "Internet," "Woman," "Gender," "Sexual Violence," "Sexual Harassment," "Intimate Partner Violence," and "Internet and Abuse". As a result of the review, 30 articles were selected. Nine categories of violence against women on the Internet were identified, included in the concept of sexual violence facilitated by technology, in addition to digital dating abuse and cyberbullying. The most commonly addressed categories were digital dating abuse, revenge porn, sexting, and online misogyny. Most of the studies found concluded greater online victimization for women than for men in all categories except cyberbullying.

To theorize and reflect on the possibilities of the forensic nurse’s performance, emphasizing the work as a civil and criminal expert, based on the Brazilian legislation, ethical principles, and comprehensive care for human beings. This is a theoretical study of exploratory nature with reflective and critical characteristics. It was based on the history of the national and international development of the forensic nursing specialty. It is organized into four categories, namely: areas of practice of forensic nurses in North American countries; state-of-the-art North American forensic nursing and the Brazilian reality, and nursing action in the face of violence. This way, international history, national panorama, and in-depth theoretical study were concatenated. Evidence of the contribution of forensic nursing to criminal and civil areas points to the emerging need for implementation and recognition of this practice within the scope of forensic investigation in Brazil with the inclusion of the topic in undergraduate courses.

Objective: to develop an integrative literature review on risk factors for suicide in individuals with cancer. Method: searching for articles was conducted in the Scientific Electronic Library Online, Medicinal Literature Analysis and Retrieval System Online, Latin American & Caribbean Literature in Health Sciences, Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature and SciVerse Scopus databases, using the descriptors “suicide” and “cancer”. Results: eighteen articles were selected. Lung, bladder and colorectal cancers are the types of highest risk for suicide. Male, white and over 60 years of age are demographic factors with higher risk for suicide in individuals with cancer. Conclusion: this review made it possible to verify that cancer may be a risk factor for suicide. This evidence can be useful for planning preventive actions in order to reduce the risk of suicide.
