It is a continuous process that begins before birth and ends with death. Objective: To understand undergraduate nursing students' perception of the concept of sexuality and the importance of including the study of sexuality in professional nursing higher education. Methodology: Descriptive, exploratory study, using qualitative methodology. Data were collected through interviews and analyzed using content analysis techniques. Results: Participants associated sexuality with a biological need that goes beyond the sexual act and that is influenced by psychological and cultural factors. They highlighted the importance of the topic and reported that it was only superficially addressed during their undergraduate degree. Conclusion: Sexuality is a key topic in professional nursing training and needs to be more and better explored in undergraduate degrees, namely to expand and optimize these health professionals' performance in situations that address sexuality as a life dimension characterized by unique experiences.
Objective: Survey the prevalence of arbovirus infections among pregnant women accessing care at a maternity hospital school in Recife, Pernambuco, Brazil.Method: Descriptive, cross-sectional, retrospective, and quantitative study, carried out with data collected from the notification forms filled in during obstetric screening between August 2015 and July 2016. Collected data about age, sex, place of residence, color, education level, if pregnant, municipality of the occurrence, clinical data related to disease or injury and the information on the achievement and results of the laboratory tests that are used as criteria of confirmation.Results: Positive serology was found for arboviruses in 40.2% of the 103 suspected cases. Serology was not performed or it showed inconclusive results in 59.8% of the cases. Dengue fever occurred in 44% of the cases, chikungunya in 34%, and zika fever in 22%. Infections were more frequent among pregnant women over 20 years old (60,2%) and 39,8% was between 15 and 19 years old.

This article analyzes the epidemiological profile of leprosy in the age group from 0 to 14 years, in the municipalities that constitute the VI Brazilian Regional Health Management Office (GERES) in the state of Pernambuco, within the period from 2005 to 2014. This is a study with an exploratory and retrospective design and use of the Brazilian National Disease Notification System (SINAN). In the decade under analysis, 613 cases of leprosy were registered – 11.2% involving subjects under 15 years of age. There is a downward tendency since 2005, with a marked increase in the year 2012 and a new decrease since 2013. The incidence of cases had a pattern compatible with the high magnitude of this disease in the region, observed in 92.3% of the municipalities analyzed. It is concluded that leprosy persists as a serious public health issue in Brazil. In Pernambuco, control measures have been adopted, such as the SANAR Program (for neglected diseases) and action plans in the municipalities with higher incidence of this pathology.

Objetivo: identificar as intervenções eficazes realizadas para fortalecimento dos músculos do assoalho pélvico e seus efeitos na incontinência urinária. Método: revisão sistemática, com delimitação temporal de 25 anos, realizada entre janeiro de 2019 a outubro de 2021, nas bases Medical Literature Analysis and Retrieval System Online, SCOPUS, Cochrane e Literatura Latino-Americana e do Caribe em Ciências da Saúde, em português, inglês ou espanhol. Resultados: incluíram-se 14 artigos, oriundos de pesquisas realizadas no Brasil, EUA, Noruega, Austrália e Irã. A maioria das intervenções se situavam dentro do aspecto fisioterapêutico, eletroestimulação e cinesioterapia. Conclusão: intervenções como a cinesioterapia e a eletroestimulação atuam como agentes positivos no fortalecimento da musculatura do assoalho pélvico.A educação em saúde pode contribuir significativamente para o despertar dessa conscientização.
Adolescence is a period of doubt and uncertainty, involving risk attitudes and exposure to emotional and physical damage. Cross-sectional epidemiological study with a quantitative approach, aiming to analyze the positive attitude of pregnant teenagers, from the perspective of adopting contraceptive methods in the puerperium. Fifty adolescents were interviewed in an outpatient clinic in Recife, PE, Brazil. The health prevention attitude was associated by means of the sociodemographic dimensions and health behavior. The analysis of adolescent exposure to factors that compromise the ability to prevent recurrent pregnancy has been linked both to concrete existing conditions of the first dimension and to health perception and behavior of the second dimension.
Objective. Identify the best way to support mothers/caregivers of children with congenital Zika virus syndrome (CZS) through quality of life analysis.Method.Sample consisting of 57 mothers/caregivers of children diagnosed with microcephaly associated with CZS, interviewed in the State of Pernambuco, Brazil, in 2016. Cross-sectional study with a descriptive approach and assessment of quality of life using the instrument “The Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory 2.0 (PedsQL) – Family Impact Module.” Results. The mothers/caregivers of children with CZS: a) were around 30 years old; b) lived in the Metropolitan Region of Recife (RegiãoMetropolitana do Recife [Grande Recife]); and c) lost almost 50% of their quality of life after the birth of the children. Conclusion. The support network for children with microcephaly must seek to reduce the negative impact of motherhood via support for the preservation of the physical and mental integrity of mothers/caregivers.
