The objective of the study was to evaluate the prevalence and factors associated with Burnout Syndrome (BS) in Primary Health Care (PHC) nursing professionals from the state of Bahia, Brazil. A multicentre, cross-sectional population-based study was conducted in a cluster sample among 1125 PHC Nursing professionals during the years 2017 and 2018. We used a questionnaire that included sociodemographic, labor and lifestyle variables and the Maslach Burnout Inventory scale to identify BS. The associations were evaluated using a robust Poisson regression with the hierarchical selection of the independent variables. The prevalence of BS was 18.3% and the associated factors were ethnicity (prevalence ratio (PR) = 0.62, confidence interval (CI) 95% = 0.47–0.83), residence (PR = 2.35, CI 95% = 1.79–3.09), economic situation (PR = 1.40, CI 95% = 1.06–1.86), satisfaction with current occupation (PR = 1.75, CI 95% = 1.31–2.33), (PR = 1.60, CI 95% = 1.23–2.08), rest (PR = 1.83, 95% CI = 1.41–2.37), technical resources and equipment (PR = 1.37, CI 95% = 1.06–1.77), night shift (PR = 1.49, CI 95% = 1.14–1.96), physical activity practice (PR = 1.72; CI 95% = 1.28–2.31), smoking (PR = 1.82, CI 95% = 1.35–2.45), and satisfaction with physical form (PR = 1.34, CI 95% = 1.01–179). Strategies are needed to prevent BS, with an emphasis on implementing worker health programs in the context of PHC.

BackgroundPostprandial lipemia (PL) in adults has been extensively studied, but little explored in youth. The aim of this study was to evaluate the influence of weight excess on postprandial lipemia in adolescents.MethodsEighty-three adolescents were classified into Groups 1 (n= 49, overweight) and 2 (n=34, eutrophic). Total cholesterol (TC), triglycerides (TG), HDL and LDL cholesterol were measured before, 2 and 4 hours after a standardized 25 g lipid and 25 g of carbohydrate test meal; glycemia and insulin measured only at baseline. Anthropometric evaluation was performed.ResultsBasal TG were higher in Group 1 (p= 0.022). The total increase (Δ-TG), corresponding to the difference between the maximum and the basal TG level was similar in both groups (29.8 ± 21.5 mg/dl vs. 28.2 ± 24.5 mg/dl, p= 0.762). TC, HDL and LDL did not change significantly throughout the test. By analyzing all the adolescents together, the waist circumference was positively correlated with TG at fasting (r = 0.223; p= 0.044) and at 4 hours (r = 0.261; p= 0.019). Only overweight adolescents with hypertriglyceridemia, who also had higher HOMA-IR, presented significant elevation of TG levels 2 and 4 hours after the overload.ConclusionThe behavior of lipoproteins in the post-prandial state is similar in eutrophic and overweight adolescents. Thus, apparently the weight excess does not induce post prandial lipemic alterations.
