This study's objective was to identify the meanings of silicosis held by ill quarry workers. It was based on medical anthropology and focal life history. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews and by direct observation in the homes of eight patients with silicosis registered in the Epidemiologic Surveillance Service in Guapé -Minas Gerais, Brazil. The inductive thematic analysis technique was used to synthesize the thematic cores: explanations attributed to the disease, severity of the disease, and its consequences. According to the participants, the disease is permeated by suffering and changes in social identity, in the context of young men working with silica. These meanings allow occupational nurses to provide differentiated healthcare, to develop preventive actions and actions aimed to properly modify the workplace. Additionally, the results can help improve strategies for disease reporting and treatment adherence. DESCRIPTORS:Silicosis. Culture. Medical anthropology. Occupational health nursing. OS SENTIDOS DA SILICOSE ATRIBUÍDOS POR TRABALHADORES DE PEDREIRAS ADOECIDOSRESUMO: Este estudo teve o objetivo de identificar os sentidos atribuídos à silicose entre trabalhadores de pedreiras adoecidos. Foi baseado na antropologia médica e na história de vida focal. Os dados foram coletados por entrevistas e observações diretas realizadas no domicílio de oito portadores de silicose, cadastrados no Serviço de Vigilância Epidemiológica de Guapé -Minas Gerais. A técnica de análise temática indutiva foi usada para sintetizar os núcleos temáticos: a explicação para a doença, a sua gravidade e conseqüências. Por eles, consideramos que a doença é permeada pelo sofrimento e alteração da identidade social, contextualizada no trabalho de homens jovens com manuseio da sílica. Esses sentidos fornecem uma base com a qual o enfermeiro do trabalho pode prestar um cuidado diferenciado, desenvolver ações de prevenção aos riscos à saúde, de adequação do ambiente de trabalho, além do aperfeiçoamento das estratégias de notificação dos agravos e de adesão ao tratamento. DESCRITORES:Silicose. Cultura. Antropologia médica. Enfermagem do trabalho.

The differences in health between men and women have been object of great interest, but interpretations tend to be naturalized and essentialists. Gender-oriented studies have criticized this literature and offered new analythical alternatives. The present study was intended to describe the profile and trends of scientific production on gender and health in Brazil. Data sources comprised the Research Groups Directory of Conselho Nacional de Desenvolvimento Científico e Tecnológico (National Research Council), CAPES (Coordination for the Improvement of Higher Education Personnel) Thesis Bank, and four journals available in SciELO -Scientific Eletronic Library Online. Fifty-one groups with at least one line of research in the subject were identified, with regional and institutional concentrations. The results confirmed the marked growth of scientific production in this field as 98 master and 42 doctoral dissertations and 665 articles on gender and health were retrieved. Women authored 86.0% and 89.0% of doctoral and master dissertations respectively, and 70.5% of the articles. Most were published in the 2000s when diversification of the studied topics was also seen. The studied subjects can be divided into five subgroups: reproduction and contraception; gender and violence; sexuality and health with emphasis on STD/ AIDS; work and health, including domestic and night work; other emergent or less explored topics. There are major political, epistemological and methodological challenges for strengthening these advancements. The gender perspective offers possibilities for enlightment of theoretical dilemmas in public health. Furthermore, it can be added to other intellectual and political efforts towards understanding health and its determinants and fighting against inequalities and for social justice.
