This study aimed to highlight and analyze the nurses' practices in care management described in the scientific production in Brazil and internationally, through an integrative review. It was examined articles published between 2005 and 2010, in the LILACS, SciELO, BDENF and CINAHL databases, with the descriptors Management and Administration, in conjunction with Care and Nursing, and the terms Nursing Management and Nursing Care, totaling 27 publications. The management of care performed by nurses is directly related to the search for quality care and better working conditions through actions such as: care realization, human and material resources management, leadership, assistance planning, nursing team training, care coordination and evaluation of nursing actions.

ABSTRACT:The purpose of this study was to understand user embracement as a good practice for use in primary health care, according to the perceptions of administrators, health professionals and patients, considering the dimensions of dialogue, attitude and reorganization of health services. It consists of a descriptive-analytical investigation, of a qualitative nature. The Grounded Theory was used as the theoretical-methodological referential. Data were obtained through interviews performed with seven coordinators, ten professionals and twelve patients of the Health Centers of Florianópolis-SC. Under the perspective of good practices, user embracement becomes a point of intersection between different subjects and primary health care practices, unfolding the dimensions of embracementdialogue, embracement-attitude and embracement-reorganization of services. User embracement triggers transformations in the working process, in the relationships established in the care spaces and in the organizational scope of the services. The interconnection of this triad reconfigures and changes the actions in primary health care and contributes to the consolidation of this health care model. DESCRIPTORS:User embracement. Primary health care. Public health practice. Unified Health System. O ACOLHIMENTO COMO BOA PRÁTICA NA ATENÇÃO BÁSICA À SAÚDE RESUMO: Objetivou-se compreender o acolhimento como boa prática de saúde desenvolvida na atenção básica, na percepção de gestores, profissionais da saúde e usuários, considerando as dimensões diálogo, postura e reorganização dos serviços de saúde. Trata-se de uma investigação descritivo-analítica, de natureza qualitativa. Como referencial teórico-metodológico utilizou-se a Teoria Fundamentada nos Dados. Os dados foram obtidos a partir de entrevistas realizadas com sete coordenadores, dez profissionais e doze usuários de Centros de Saúde de Florianópolis-SC. Na perspectiva das boas práticas, o acolhimento converte-se num ponto de intersecção entre diferentes sujeitos e práticas de cuidado na atenção básica à saúde, desdobrando-se nas dimensões acolhimento-diálogo, acolhimentopostura e acolhimento-reorganização dos serviços. O acolhimento desencadeia transformações no processo de trabalho, nas relações estabelecidas nos espaços de cuidado e no âmbito organizacional dos serviços. A interconexão da tríade reconfigura e renova as ações na atenção básica e contribui para a consolidação deste modelo de atenção à saúde. DESCRITORES:Acolhimento. Atenção primária à saúde. Prática de saúde pública. Sistema Único de Saúde.ACOGIMIENTO COMO BUENA PRÁCTICA EN LA ATENCIÓN PRIMARIA A LA SALUD RESUMEN: Se objetivó comprender el acogimiento como buena práctica de salud en la atención primaria, tras la percepción de gerentes, profesionales y usuarios, teniendo en cuenta las dimensiones diálogo, postura y reorganización de los servicios.

En este artículo presentamos un circuito de indagación etnográfica y de intervención producido en una investigación entre 2013 y 2015 en cinco escuelas en Santiago de Chile, cuyo propósito fue documentar la producción de la normalidad y la diferencia en espacios escolares. Los marcos teóricos y metodológicos contestan la pregunta de cómo se hace etnografía e intervención cuando la pregunta de investigación se sitúa desde la producción de la normalidad. Los resultados muestran cómo los procesos culturales y sociales neutralizados son un espacio productivo para la reflexión necesaria para transformar las prácticas docentes.

Objectives: This study’s goal was to determine the perceived risks of infection as well as the perceived risks of hospitalization and death from COVID-19 in Ecuador and Kenya. It also assessed the factors associated with the risk-related perceptions. Methods: Cross-sectional studies with samples from the adult populations in both countries were conducted to assess the perceived risks of contracting COVID-19. Data were collected online using the Qualtrics platform from samples of 1,050 heads of households ages 18 years or older in each country. Three statistical analyses were conducted: summary statistics, correlation, and linear regression. Results: The average perceived risks of COVID-19 infection, hospitalization, and death in the Kenyan sample were 27.1%, 43.2%, and 17.2%, respectively, and the values for the Ecuadorian sample were 34%, 32.8%, and 23.3%, respectively. The Pearson’s correlation coefficients between the risk measures in each country were less than 0.38. Risk measures were associated with several sociodemographic variables (e.g., income, gender, location) but not age. Conclusions: The perceived risks of COVID-19 infection, hospitalization, and death in Kenya and Ecuador were significantly higher relative to the statistics reported; however, no strong association existed between perceived risk and age, which is a key factor in adverse health outcomes, including death, among COVID-19 infected individuals.

RESUMENEste artículo plantea que las políticas públicas chilenas en educación entienden la equidad como igualdad de oportunidades y la justicia como movilidad social individual. La organización del trabajo de este tipo de equidad es managerial y promueve el "éxito y la calidad para todos". Como resultados vemos que esta promesa no se cumple en los sectores vulnerables y los profesores están expuestos a falta de reconocimiento en el trabajo que influye en el vínculo con los estudiantes y en la salud mental. La investigación se realiza a través de la aproximación de la sociología clínica. Se concluye que es necesario pasar a una noción de equidad ligada a la justicia social que transforme las políticas públicas y las prácticas de gestión de las escuelas. Palabras claves:Reconocimiento en el trabajo; equidad; profesores; justicia social.

ABSTRACTIn this article we argue that Chilean public policies understand equity as equal opportunity, and justice as individual social mobility. The organization of work around this understanding of equity is about management and promotes "success and quality for all." As a result, we see that this promise is not fulfilled in vulnerable sectors and exposes 1 ps

Metastatic urothelial cancer, associated with a poor prognosis, is still major cause of cancer-related death, with scarce options of effective treatment after progression to platinum-based chemotherapy and immunotherapy. The human epithelial growth factor receptor 2 (Her-2) has been identified as a new therapeutic target in medical oncology. However, despite the encouraging results in breast and gastric cancers, clinical trials with anti-Her-2 monoclonal antibodies and tyrosine-kinase inhibitors have shown limited efficacy of this strategy in urothelial tumors. Notably, more favorable data have been recently shown that antibody-drug conjugates are currently emerging as a novel promising approach for Her-2 targeted therapy in advanced urothelial cancer.
