O objetivo deste estudo foi analisar as práticas profissionais na atenção à saúde da mulher em situação de violência, identificando os elementos do processo de trabalho e sua relação com a emancipação da opressão de gênero. Para tanto, investigou-se, com profissionais de saúde de um serviço de atenção primária, se as intenções da atual política de saúde da mulher estariam sendo realizadas na prática profissional por meio dos processos de trabalho destinados a esse fim. A partir da pesquisa qualitativa, os resultados evidenciaram a invisibilidade da violência no serviço e o desconhecimento da categoria Gênero e da sua complexidade. Configura-se, portanto, a adequação do processo de trabalho em saúde na atenção a mulheres em situação de violência como um grande desafio para a produção de uma assistência potencialmente emancipatória da opressão de gênero e condizente com os pressupostos da política.

RESUMO Objetivou-se investigar as repercussões do Aleitamento Materno (AM) exclusivo até o sexto mês de vida de crianças com baixo peso ao nascer. Trata-se de um estudo exploratório, com abordagem qualitativa, realizado em USF de João Pessoa. A partir dos discursos, foram construídas duas categorias, intituladas: A importância do AM no crescimento e desenvolvimento das crianças com baixo peso ao nascer; O papel da Atenção Básica na promoção do AM e no apoio às mães. Evidenciou-se a importância do aleitamento materno no tocante ao crescimento e desenvolvimento das crianças que nasceram com baixo peso, como também o papel dos trabalhadores da atenção básica no incentivo e na promoção do aleitamento materno.ABSTRACT This study aimed to investigate the effects of exclusive breastfeeding (BF) of infants of a low birth weight until sixth months of age. This exploratory study with a qualitative approach was conducted at a Family Health Centre in Joao Pessoa. The discursive content was analysed and separated into two categories entitled: "The importance of BF in the growth and development of low birth weight infants", and "The role of Primary Care in the promotion and support of breastfeeding mothers". The results revealed the importance of breastfeeding in relation to the growth and development of children with low birth weight as well as the role of primary care workers in encouraging and promoting breastfeeding.

This study aimed to analyze the conceptions that guide the practices of professionals in relation to care provided in mental health. This qualitative study enrolled professionals from a government health clinic in João Pessoa, Paraíba, Brazil. Data collection was conducted through a semi-structured interview during which the testimonies were recorded and subsequently transcribed in full. Analysis of the speech used Fiorin's Critical Theory, which allowed the elaboration of two subcategories: "Knowledge that guides practices in mental health" and "The invisibility of the integrating character of the Family Health Strategy from the Network of Psychosocial Care perspective". The focus of nursing care and health must not be bound only to the sickness, but caring practices should be transformed to promote comprehensive care and the resocialization of the person with psychic suffering.

Objective: to identify the factors associated with the risk of violence against older adult women. Method: this is a quantitative, analytical, and cross-sectional research conducted with 122 older adult females in the city of Recife, state of Pernambuco, Brazil. Data collection was carried out using validated instruments adapted to Brazil. The analysis was performed using descriptive statistics (absolute and relative frequency) and inferential statistics (Pearson’s chi- square, Spearman’s correlation test, and Multiple Logistic Regression). Results: there was prevalence of a risk of abuse against older adult women under 70 years of age, literate, without a stable relationship, living alone, without any work activity, and who had an income higher than the minimum wage. There is a significant association between the risk of violence among older women with a higher number of chronic health conditions (24; 77.4%), and who are less active in advanced activities (42; 70.0%). A reduction in quality of life and satisfaction with life, and the onset of depressive symptoms, increase the risk of violence. Conclusion: multimorbidity, low functional capacity, depressive symptoms, low quality of life and low satisfaction with life, a high number of chronic conditions, depressive symptoms, and functional dependence to perform daily activities can be conditioning factors for the emergence of abuse against older adults.

This article presents the development issues and evaluation results of a serious game called Caixa de Pandora (Pandora's Box, in English), developed to train health professionals to care for women in situations of domestic violence. The combat of violence against women in the health sector presupposes a change of attitudes with respect to identified cases, with the exclusion of discriminatory and oppressive practices on the part of care professionals. To change these behaviors and verify postures, Caixa de Pandora uses an approach focused on the affective domain of learning. In the same sense of verifying and guiding changes in behavior, the intelligence module of the game used a model based on psychometric principles in its design. The validation of the game by a statistical sample with health professionals identified changes in their conceptions about the subject after playing the game, thereby demonstrating its pedagogical potential to formulate new knowledge and to change behavior.

Objective: to analyze teachers’ conceptions about transgenderity in childhood and to identify the possibilities and limits of working with these children in the school context. Method: a qualitative research study, carried out with 23 teachers from two municipal elementary schools. Semi-structured interviews were used to produce empirical material. As an analytical resource, the content analysis technique, thematic modality, was used. Results: six thematic categories emerged in the set of empirical material: There is transgenderity in childhood; The construction of gender identity and roles in childhood; The experience of trans children in the school context; Trans children: How to deal with?; Discussing the differences in the classroom: Is this the way?; and Dilemmas of school and family interaction. It was found that the gender dichotomy is reinforced in the classroom, causing tensions and stereotyped divisions for male and female roles. Various forms of violence have been reproduced by classmates and teachers, who, due to lack of knowledge or to unpreparedness, reinforce concepts and attitudes that lead to the maintenance of exclusion. Conclusion: the schools find it difficult to promote the inclusion of trans children. It is necessary to create strategies aimed at raising awareness and training the professionals who make up the school environment, especially teachers in the initial grades.
