Content Validation and Usability of an Educational Booklet on Non-Suicidal Self-Injury in Adolescents
Introduction: Non-suicidal self-injury in adolescents constitutes a growing public health problem, for which there is still a lack of validated educational materials to assist healthcare and education professionals in identifying and adequately managing these cases. Objective: To analyze the evidence regarding the content validity and usability of an educational booklet on non-suicidal self-injury in adolescents. Materials and Methods: The study was conducted in four stages: Initial development of the booklet; preliminary review; evaluation by specialist judges and school professionals; and subsequent revisions. The sample included 10 judges selected through an analysis of their résumés on the Lattes Platform, based on criteria such as academic qualifications, experience in the field, teaching experience, and scientific output, as well as 22 school professionals, selected through snowball sampling, with experience in providing academic support to adolescents. The booklet, titled Marcas que doem (Scars that Hurt), which contains 42 pages and 14 topics, was developed based on a scoping review of school practices regarding non-suicidal self-injury. For content validation, the Suitability Assessment of Materials instrument was used to calculate the content validity index; for usability, the System Usability Scale was applied. Results: The overall content validity index was 0.9, which is considered excellent. The mean score on the System Usability Scale indicated excellent usability, with 84.6% of the professionals considering the booklet suitable for use in schools. Conclusion: The booklet provides evidence of content validity and usability, making it a valuable educational resource to support health and education professionals in the prevention and care of non-suicidal self-injury in adolescents.

The Relationship Between Empowerment and Mental Health Among the LGBTQ Population: A Scoping Review
Due to discrimination and structural cisheteronormativity, the LGBTQ+ population faces high stress and mental health issues within both historical oppression and the current sociopolitical environment. The historical struggle for rights remains a key pathway to empowerment, a multidimensional process involving control, agency, and participation at intrapersonal, interpersonal/community, and sociopolitical levels. To map the scientific literature on the relationship between empowerment and the mental health of the LGBTQ population. A scoping review in accordance with the guidelines of the Joanna Briggs Institute. A total of 294 publications were identified; after blind and paired assessment of titles, abstracts, and full texts, 25 studies were included. Empowerment in the community (connection and support), intrapersonal (self-acceptance), and sociopolitical (activism) dimensions was associated with positive mental health outcomes, such as greater resilience and lower depression. The absence of empowerment, marked by isolation and limited family support, was linked to worse mental health outcomes, including suicidal risk. Activism showed ambivalent effects, with long-term benefits, but also political fatigue in hostile contexts. This review positions empowerment as a strategic axis for promoting LGBTQ+ mental health, fostering protective factors, reducing vulnerabilities, and promoting well-being, autonomy, and social participation.

Sentimentos vivenciados pelos ex-moradores realocados devido ao afundamento do solo pela extração de sal-gema
Resumo O objetivo deste estudo é relatar sentimentos vivenciados por ex-moradores realocados devido ao afundamento do solo decorrente da extração de sal-gema em Maceió, Alagoas. Trata-se de um estudo descritivo de abordagem qualitativa, realizado em pessoas maiores de 18 anos de idade, realocadas devido a um desastre socioambiental, por meio da aplicação de questionário online. A análise dos dados foi feita no software Iramuteq. Participaram 156 ex-moradores, idade média de 42,2 anos, maioria do sexo feminino, cor parda/preta e escolaridade entre superior incompleto, completo e pós-graduação, servidor público ou em situação de desemprego. A Classificação Hierárquica Descendente gerou quatro classes semânticas assim dispostas: A Classe 1 - realocação da sua moradia; Classe 2 - A empresa e os danos causados por ela; Classe 3 - sentimentos e emoções negativas; Classe 4 - vivências boas em suas residências. Sentimentos de tristeza, insegurança, indignação, descaso, abandono e revolta pelas perdas vivenciadas estão presentes nos participantes do estudo. A análise evidenciou que estratégias de cuidado em saúde precisam ser implementadas, frente aos impactos que desastres como esse podem acarretar a saúde física e mental dos envolvidos.

Feelings experienced by former residents who were relocated due to ground subsidence caused by rock salt mining
This study aims to report the feelings experienced by former residents who were relocated due to land subsidence resulting from rock salt mining in Maceió, Alagoas. This is a descriptive study with a qualitative approach, conducted with people aged over 18 who were relocated due to a socio-environmental disaster, using an online questionnaire. Data analysis was performed using Iramuteq software. A total of 156 former residents participated, with a mean age of 42.2 years; the majority were female, of brown or black skin color, and had educational backgrounds ranging from incomplete higher education to complete higher education and graduate studies; they were either civil servants or unemployed. The Descending Hierarchical Classification generated four semantic classes arranged as follows: Class 1 - relocation from their homes; Class 2 - the company and the damage it caused; Class 3 - negative feelings and emotions; Class 4 - positive experiences in their homes. Feelings of sadness, insecurity, indignation, neglect, abandonment, and anger over the losses experienced are present among the study participants. The analysis showed that health care strategies need to be implemented, given the impacts that disasters such as this one can have on the physical and mental health of those involved.

Gênero, diversidade sexual e saúde LGBTQIAPN+ na graduação em saúde: uma análise Foucaultiana
Este estudo analisou a inclusão de gênero, diversidade sexual e saúde LGBTQIAPN+ nos Projetos Pedagógicos de Cursos de graduação em saúde, sob a ótica de Foucault. Realizado entre novembro de 2024 e janeiro de 2025, com a análise de oito documentos de uma Universidade no Nordeste brasileiro, o estudo revelou duas questões principais: A primeira versa sobre a abordagem crítica acerca de gênero e sexualidade estar presente de forma aprofundada em apenas três cursos, alinhando-se com as ideias de Foucault. E, a segunda, sobre a saúde LGBTQIAPN+ ser tratada de maneira superficial ou ausente na maioria dos currículos, com apenas três cursos mencionando a população e dois citando a Política Nacional de Saúde LGBT. O estudo destaca a necessidade urgente de atualização curricular para garantir uma formação adequada ao atendimento dessa população.

Mental disorders in elderly victims of man-made disasters: a scoping review
To map studies on the presence of mental disorders in elderly individuals who have experienced man-made disasters. This is a scoping review based on the guidelines of the Joanna Briggs Institute. The strategy was applied to the databases Medline/PubMed, LILACS/BVS, PsycInfo, Embase, Web of Science, and CINAHL without temporal or linguistic restrictions. The study selection was performed blindly and in pairs, with conflicts resolved by a third reviewer. A total of 36 studies were included in this review. Most of the studies were conducted in the US and were cross-sectional, focusing on terrorism and industrial accidents. The identified mental disorders included post-traumatic stress disorder, depressive disorder, anxiety disorder, panic disorder, and substance use or abuse. The results indicate the presence of mental disorders in elderly victims of man-made disasters, despite greater resilience due to their life experiences.

Race/Skin color and psychological distress in Nursing teams during the COVID-19 pandemic
Objetivo: verificar a relação entre sofrimento mental e raça/cor da pele de profissionais de enfermagem atuando no contexto da COVID-19. Metodologia: estudo transversal, descritivo, correlacional e quantitativo com abordagem amostral não probabilística, utilizando a técnica bola de neve com 1.737 profissionais de enfermagem. Foi realizada coleta virtual com questionário de caracterização pessoal/profissional e Escala de Avaliação de Sintomas Psíquicos-40-R. Foi utilizado o software G*power versão 3.0. Adotou-se um nível de significância de ppost hoc foi de 100% com poder de efeito de 0,50. Resultados: predominaram os enfermeiros brancos (51,2%) e técnicos de enfermagem negros/pardos (46,3%). Constatou-se média mais alta no domínio Psicoticismo entre profissionais negros/pardos (p=0,048), que recebem salários mais baixos do que os brancos (48,8%, p=0,001). Estes últimos estavam insatisfeitos com o espaço oferecido para o descanso no trabalho e na troca de turnos (55,3%, p=0,033), recebem menos apoio psicológico/emocional da instituição onde trabalham/estudam (pós-graduação) (19,5%, p=0,004) e tiveram um maior número de mortes de familiares, amigos, vizinhos e colegas de trabalho/estudo devido à COVID-19 (30,7%) do que os brancos. Profissionais brancos e negros/pardos estavam satisfeitos com a disponibilidade de álcool em gel (p=0,001) e as condições para lavagem das mãos (p=0,001). Conclusão: esses achados levantam preocupações sobre as condições de trabalho, a negligência por parte das instituições de saúde e a desigualdade social que afetam a saúde mental das profissionais negras/pardas.

Fatores para traumas perineais no parto e estratégias de prevenção: uma revisão integrativa
O presente trabalho tem por objetivo descrever os fatores relacionados aos traumas perineais no parto e estratégias de prevenção baseadas nas evidências científicas. Trata-se de uma revisão integrativa da literatura mediante a busca realizada em bases de dados eletrônicas Biblioteca Virtual de Saúde (BVS) e Scopus. A seleção dos descritores foi realizada a partir da consulta aos Descritores em Ciências da Saúde (DECs) e ao Medical Subject Headings (MeSH). A partir dos artigos encontrados, apenas 13 artigos se encaixaram na pesquisa, desses (7) foram encontrados na Biblioteca Virtual de Saúde e (6) na SCOPUS, esses artigos foram lidos na íntegra, e foram artigos que foram publicados de 2019 a 2024, a posição horizontal no período expulsivo do parto e uso de episiotomia é relacionada às posições litotômica e semi-sentada, e no que tange a relação entre a não realização de episiotomia e laceração perineal, mostra que as lacerações causam menores incômodos as mulheres no pós-parto. Em relação aos desfechos que aumentam a ocorrência de laceração, foi quase unânime as posições horizontais. Já no que diz respeito a fatores protetores, são as posições verticais, a inserção do enfermeiro obstétrico no cenário do parto.
