RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the health literacy and health behaviors of Guinean university students residing in Brazil. METHOD: A cross-sectional, analytical study conducted with 51 Guinean university students residing in Brazil. A health behavior questionnaire and the Test of Functional Health Literacy in Adults - Short version were applied. Spearman correlation coefficient, U of Mann-Whitney and Kruskal-Wallis were calculated. RESULTS: Health literacy was adequate (median=79; IQR=24). Reading comprehension (median=70; IQR=16) of health information was better than numerical comprehension (median=14; IQR=14). Better health literacy performance was found in those with daily screen time of 3 to 5 hours (p=0.004) and who consumed fatty meat (p=0.002). CONCLUSION: Adequate health literacy of Guinean university students was associated with mostly healthy behaviors, except for screen time and consumption of fatty meat.

RESUMO

Analisar a correlação entre estresse, ansiedade e depressão com a síndrome de Burnout em estudantes de graduação de uma universidade pública federal. Trata-se de um estudo exploratório-descritivo, com abordagem quantitativa, que utilizou um questionário on-line para coleta de dados, que ocorreu entre dezembro de 2021 e março de 2022, disponibilizado por e-mail. Participaram 169 discentes, e a correlação entre as variáveis sociodemográficas e as dimensões estresse, ansiedade e depressão evidenciou que os brasileiros, principalmente as mulheres e praticantes de alguma religião, mostraram escores mais elevados. Quanto à síndrome de Burnout, notaram-se valores altos para as dimensões exaustão emocional e eficácia profissional, mas escores baixos para a dimensão descrença. Ao verificar-se a correlação entre a escala de ansiedade, depressão e estresse e a síndrome de Burnout, percebeu-se uma relação negativa entre seus domínios e a eficácia estudantil. Revelou-se também uma correlação entre a depressão e a exaustão emocional.

To analyze the correlation between stress, anxiety, and depression with the Burnout syndrome in undergraduate students at a federal public university. This is an exploratory descriptive study, with a quantitative approach, which used an online questionnaire for data collection, which took place from December 2021 to March 2022, available by email. 169 students participated in the study, in which the correlation between sociodemographic variables and the dimensions stress, anxiety and depression showed that Brazilians, especially women and practitioners of some religion, showed higher scores. As for the Burnout syndrome, high values were observed for the emotional exhaustion and professional efficacy dimensions, but low scores for the disbelief dimension. When verifying the correlation between the anxiety, depression and stress scale and the Burnout syndrome, a negative relationship between its domains and student effectiveness was noticed. A correlation was also revealed between depression and emotional exhaustion.

RESUMEN Objetivo: Evaluar la alfabetización en salud y los comportamientos en salud de estudiantes universitarios de origen guineano residentes en Brasil. Método: Estudio transversal, analítico, realizado con 51 estudiantes universitarios guineanos residentes en Brasil. Se aplicó un cuestionario de comportamiento en salud y el Test de Alfabetización Funcional en Salud en Adultos - Versión Corta. Se calcularon los coeficientes de correlación de Spearman, U de Mann-Whitney y Kruskal-Wallis. Resultados: La alfabetización en salud fue adecuada (mediana=79; IIQ=24). La comprensión lectora (mediana=70; IIQ=16) de información de salud fue mejor que la comprensión numérica (mediana=14; IIQ=14). Se encontró un mejor desempeño en alfabetización en salud en aquellos con un tiempo de pantalla diario de 3 a 5 horas (p=0,004) y que consumían carne grasosa (p=0,002). Conclusión: La alfabetización sanitaria adecuada de los estudiantes universitarios de Guinea se asoció con comportamientos que en su mayoría eran saludables, excepto el tiempo frente a la pantalla y el consumo de carne grasosa.

RESUMO

Objetivo:Esta pesquisa buscou avaliar os impactos da pandemia do vírus SARS-CoV-2 nosono de acadêmicos de universidade do interior do Ceará.Métodos:Trata-se de pesquisa quantitativa, com abordagem analítica, realizada em 2022, por intermédio de um questionário sociodemográfico associado ao instrumento de análise da qualidade do sono. Participaram do estudo 225 estudantes maiores de 18 anos e com matrícula ativa nos cursos de graduação da Universidade da Integração Internacional da Lusofonia Afro-Brasileira (UNILAB). O questionário foi disponibilizado via e-mail. A análise foi realizada por meio de frequências absolutas e relativas das variáveis, além de medidas de tendência central e de dispersão.Resultados:A partir da análise dos dados, percebeu-se que,quando comparado o percentual da qualidade do sono de antes da pandemia (44,0%) com aqueledurante o período pandêmico (25,8%), no segundo caso houve diminuição desta boa qualidade, podendo estar relacionada à dificuldade de adormecer ou à insônia. Conclusão:Conclui-se que a qualidade do sono foi significativamente impactada, de modo negativo, durante a pandemia, sendo ainda possivelmente prejudicial ao desenvolvimento e rendimento acadêmico dos estudantes

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: To analyze the association between health literacy and the adherence to the pharmacological treatment of Brazilians with arterial hypertension. METHODS: Cross-sectional study with 234 participants who responded an on-line sociodemographic and clinical characterization questionnaire, in addition to evaluation of health literacy and of the adherence to their pharmacological treatment. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and difference and correlation tests. RESULTS: People with post-graduation, who were actively working and did not smoke, had better health literacy results. Elders and those who were retired or lived on government subsidies adhered better to the medication treatment. There was a correlation between the numerical dimension (rs=0.189; p=0.004) and the global health literacy result (r2=0.170; p=0.009) with the adherence. CONCLUSIONS: A better numerical and global understanding of health literacy was associated with better adherence to arterial hypertension medication treatment.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: to evaluate the clinical conditions and the risk classification of children and adolescents treated in a hospital emergency, according to the Pediatric Risk Classification Protocol. METHOD: cross-sectional study, with 200 participants, using an instrument based on the Pediatric Risk Classification Protocol and using odds ratio for the analysis. RESULTS: most participants were male patients in early childhood and who were or weren't in daycare. As for clinical conditions, most showed changes in vital (24.5%) and respiratory (20.0%) signs, most patients (57.5%) did not present pain; 35.5% were classified as urgent and 45.0% as non-urgent. There was a greater chance of being classified as very urgent (orange) when compared to non-urgent (blue). CONCLUSION: the protocol used contributed to an effective classification and was considered a valid and reliable health technology for determining the priority of care.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVES: to assess the usability of an app prototype for diabetic foot self-care by an end user. METHODS: a descriptive study that uses heuristic assessment of a hybrid app usability. Fifteen users of an outpatient diabetes care service in a capital of Northeastern Brazil participated in the study during April 2018. The usability measurement tool called Smartphone Usability questionnaiRE was applied. RESULTS: the lowest score was 77 and the highest was 112, with an average usability of 96.1 points. Usability was framed in the last two levels, 70 and 8o. Users now strongly agree (level 70) and fully (level 80) with the assessed items, which represents good usability of the apps prototype. CONCLUSIONS: the final product developed focuses on user needs and requirements, which can ensure usability based on effectiveness, efficiency and satisfaction triad.
