It is concluded that the application successfully addresses the community's informational needs, enhancing the visibility and accessibility of the library's services.Article Digital health interventions and quality of home-based primary care for older adults: a scoping review protocol(Frontiers Media SA, 2023) Uchôa, Severina Alice da Costa; Silva, Ísis de Siqueira; Silva, Cícera Renata Diniz Vieira; Lopes, Rayssa Horácio; Araújo, Aguinaldo José de; Figueirêdo, Renan Cabral de; Bay Jr, Osvaldo de Goes; Lapão, Luís Velez; Xavier, Pedro BezerraArticle Atenção à tuberculose: estudo de avaliabilidade(Research, Society and Development, 2014) Negrão, Oswaldo Gomes Corrêa; Coelho, Ardigleusa Alves; Martiniano, Cláudia Santos; Brito, Ewerton Willian Gomes; Arcêncio, Ricardo Alexandre; Uchôa, Severina Alice da CostaObjective: to verify whether the tuberculosis control program (TCP) is evaluable and to examine the feasibility of building an evaluation model in apriority municipality for the control of tuberculosis. Method: this evaluability study was conducted in a municipality in northeastern Brazil. For data collection, documental analysis and interviews with key informants were performed. For indicator validation, the nominal group technique was adopted. Results: the details of TCP were described, and both the logical model and the classification framework for indicators were developed and agreed up on, with the goal of characterizing the structural elements of the program, defining the structure and process indicators, and formulating the evaluation questions. Conclusion: TCP is evaluable. Based on logical operational analysis, it was possible to evaluate the adequacy of the program goals for the control of tuberculosis. Therefore, the performance of a summative evaluation is recommended, with a focus on the analysis of the effects of tuberculosis control interventions on decreasing morbidity and mortalityArticle Máscaras de proteção e os reveses da busca por itens de proteção individual em tempos de COVID-19 -uma revisão integrativa(Research, Society and Development, 2020) Negrão, Oswaldo Gomes Corrêa; Viana, Jaiane Carmélia Monteiro; Cunha, Rayrane Iris Melo da; Lima, Beatriz Maria Falcão; Monteiro, Rosemary Araújo; Guerra, Eliana Costa; https://orcid.org/0000-0002-3718-6991Introduction: COVID-19 – a viral disease that has become a public health emergency – has SARS-CoV-2 as its etiological agent and is transmitted by droplets or aerosols from infected individuals. Due to the high rate of contamination by the virus and the limitations of the disease’s treatment, public and private institutions have been recommending the use of masks as a form of mass respiratory protection. Objective: to outline a broader overview of aspects related to the production, access, use and handling of homemade masks and to specify the time, form of use and recommendations for each type of professional mask. Methodology: For this purpose, an integrative literature review was carried out in PubMed, LILIACS, Web of Science, Scopus, Science Direct, The BMJ and LEXML’s databases, using various combinations of the main descriptors “masks”, “personal protective equipment” and “virus diseases”. Results: Among the main findings, the most effective protection of N95 and FFP2 respirators stand out, to the detriment of surgical masks. In addition, evidence shows efficient disinfection methods for respirators, such as the use of hydrogen peroxide and UV radiation, and the alternative of using handmade masks, inexpensive and easy to manufacture, for the general population, in face of individual protection equipment shortages. Conclusion: In the midst of a pandemic with a viral etiological agent, it is essential to study respiratory protection devices, differentiating them according to their particularities, in order to know the most suitable for individual and collective protectionArticle Assistência à saúde mental em Natal-RN: o confronto de dois modelos(International Journal of Psychiatry, 2008) Macedo, Maurício Roberto Campelo de; Caldas, Gustavo Henrique de OliveiraArticle Percepções de pais e adolescentes sobre a maloclusão: ação dialógica à prárica clínica(Red de revistas científicas de Acceso Abierto diamante, 2010) Macedo, Maurício Roberto Câmpelo de; Sousa Junior, José Soares de; Souza, Georgia Costa de Araújo; Alves, Maria do Socorro Costa FeitosaArticle Avaliação da qualidade da atenção primária à saúde sob a perspectiva do idoso(FapUNIFESP (SciELO), 2014) Araújo, Lavínia Uchôa Azevedo de; Gama, Zenewton André da Silva; Nascimento, Flávio Luiz Araújo do; Oliveira, Herison Franklin Viana de; Azevedo, Wilker Medeiros de; Almeida Júnior, Helano Jader Batista deThe scope of this study was to assess the quality of Primary Health Care (PHC) provided to the elderly from their viewpoint. The study design was cross-sectional and observational in a stratified random sample of elderly individuals, enrolled in 10 of the 20 Basic Health Units (BHU) in the city of Macaiba, State of Rio Grande do Norte, Brazil. After an interview conducted using the adult version of the primary care assessment tool (PCATool-Brazil), the quality level was estimated (0-10, based on desirable attributes) and the association between demographic and socioeconomic factors was analyzed. The participants (n = 100) assigned a score of fair (5.7) to Quality; Longitudinality of care was awarded a high score (7.3), however Integrality (4.7), Family Orientation (4.1) and Accessibility (3.8) were considered weak. Socio-demographic factors linked to vulnerability (low income, rural area and older age) were positively associated with different PHC attributes. A margin for improvement in PHC attributes was observed, especially with respect to increasing the focus on the family, extending working hours in BHUs and enhancing prevention of diseases and ensuing complicationsArticle Conditional cash transfer program effects on anthropometric index from children in latin america: a systematic review(Scientific Research Publishing, 2016) Melo, Larissa Grace Nogueira Serafim de; Uchoa, Severina Alice da Costa; Cobucci, Ricardo Ney Oliveira; Costa, José Vilton; Costa, Antonio José do Nascimento Gouveia; Gois, Isabella Tarciana Pinheiro de; Gomes, Mirella Cristina SilveiraArticle A escola como lócus privilegiado para ações de educação alimentar e nutricional: um relato de experiências com pré-escolares(Editora Verde, 2019) Melo, Larissa Grace Nogueira Serafim de; Costa, Larissa Pinheiro; Dantas, Rebekka Fernandes; Bezerra, Mariana SilvaThe article presents an account of a Food and Nutrition Education (EAN) experience with preschool children from using dialogic methodologies at a nursery school in the municipal network of Santa Cruz -RN. This is an account of experiences of EAN actions developed in a nursery of the municipal network of the small town of Santa Cruz / RN during the year 2017 and was attended by 23 preschoolers of both sexes in the age group from 4 to 5 years of age. At each meeting, a dialogic methodology was used based on play activities, which lasted approximately 40 minutes in each dynamics, over a period of two days, and the themes addressed were the food groups and healthy foods. Posters, videos, games, and cutouts and collages were used. The preschoolers show that they know well the food groups, especially cereals, fruits and meat and eggs. It can be observed that the students showed great interest in expressing their opinions, tastes, habits, preferences and food experiences, interacting with all the activities. Finally, it is believed that the wealth of the educational practices implemented can promote the formation, and consequently the adoption of healthy eating habits for the pre-school children participating in this studyArticle Práticas de complementação ao leite materno: concepções de puérperas sobre aleitamento materno e uso de fórmula infantil(Editora Verde, 2019) Melo, Larissa Grace Nogueira Serafim de; Sousa, Eneida Laís de Oliveira; Medeiros, Dilian Maise FerreiraObjective: to understand the meanings attributed by puerperal mothers to the supply of breast milk associated with the use of infant formula without clinical and nutritional indication. Methods: This is a cross-sectional, descriptive, qualitative approach. There were 16 interviews. Data were collected through a questionnaire with objective questions related to socioeconomic data and questions about breastfeeding and artificial feeding. The answers were recorded in a digital recorder, transcribed in full and submitted to the categorical content analysis. Results:The final categories found were: external influence and own experience in the act of breastfeeding; valuation of the breastfeeding and infant formula as adjuvant. It was inferred from the statements that the proactive posture or insecurity in the present puerperium is influenced by the experience of the previous gestation. On benefits, child and maternal health were mentioned. The low orabsent production of breast milk was a justification to give artificial milk. Conclusions: It was verified the valorization of the act of breastfeeding reflecting in the disposition to the same, as well as the recognition of itsbenefits, however the idea of insufficient milk persists for some women. The appearance of possible difficulties, whether clinical or nutritional indication or not, leads to offer formulaArticle Avaliação dos conhecimentos e práticas em aleitamento materno dos profissionais de saúde em um hospital amigo da criança(Editora Verde, 2019) Melo, Larissa Grace Nogueira Serafim de; Cavalcante, Andressa Vallery Setúbal de Oliveira Nunes; Borges, Eduarda de Moura; Araújo, Ana Gabriela de Figueiredo; Medeiros, Luan Nogueira Bezerra deExclusive breastfeeding up to six months of age is the ideal food for infant nutrition with advantages to mother and child health, but breastfeeding rates are below that recommended by WHO. Policies, such as the Baby-Friendly Hospital Initiative, promote, among other actions, the training ofhealth professionals to adopt appropriate hospital procedures. To evaluate the knowledge and practices of health professionals in a Baby Friendly Hospital about breastfeeding is the objective of this study. It is a cross-sectional and quantitative study, carried out between January and October 2017, in a university hospital, in the interior of Rio Grande do Norte, Brazil. The sample consisted of nurses, nursing technicians, nutritionists, physiotherapists, obstetricians and pediatricians, evaluated througha structured questionnaire. Most of the professionals had satisfactory knowledge about breastfeeding, however they differed on the theoretical and practical level. Nutritionists and physiotherapists stood out positively, with significant difference, strengthening the integrality of the assistance through a multiprofessional team. It is suggested to carry out training more frequently, in order to improve knowledge and work processes in the health serviceArticle Condição materna de adolescentes e impacto no peso do neonato(Editora Verde, 2019) Melo, Larissa Grace Nogueira Serafim de; Borges, Eduarda de Moura; Medeiros, Luan Nogueira Bezerra de; Cavalcante, Andressa Vallery Setúbal de Oliveira NunesDue to possibles negative results on newborn's health potentially related to teenage pregnancy and importance of newborn weight as a determinant of maternal and child health, the present study aimed to characterize the socioeconomic and obstetric conditions of adolescent pregnant women, identifying factors associated with the impact on neonate's weight. A cross-sectional study with adolescents who have recently given birth (13 to 19 years old). Nutritional status of pregnant adolescents was studied using the body mass index and gestational weight gain; socioeconomic characteristics and its relation to the birth weight of the neonate. The analyzes were performed using the Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS), considering a value of p <0.05. In this work, 97 adolescents aged 18 ± 2.9 years were evaluated. The results were: IMC of eutrophy before and at the end of gestation, with a weight of 10.4±4.8 kg; newborns with a mean weight, cephalic perimeter, and age-appropriate length. Among socioeconomic variables, the marital status, prenatal consultations, previous pregnancies, and type of type of birth delivery presented significant associations with weight. However, there wasn't a statistical ratio to justify the increase of weight in the gestation period. The results attested the importance of anthropometry in the nutritional evaluation and necessity of standardization for this classification aimed at adolescent pregnant women, besides understanding pregnancy in adolescence as a complexity of risk factors, alsoevaluating socioeconomic and obstetric variables, that may be considered factors of risk in the anthropometric nutritional status and neonate's healthArticle Atenção plena e aconselhamento nutricional na promoção da consciência do comportamento alimentar: revisão integrativa(Research, Society and Development, 2021) Melo, Larissa Grace Serafim Nogueira de; Araújo, Mayara Priscilla Dantas; Costa, Raísa Acácio FrançaObjective: To identify the effectiveness of mindfulness and nutritional counseling in promoting eating behavior.

The following descriptors were used: mindfulness, eating behavior and adult, in English, Portuguese and Spanish. Results: seven articles composed the study sample. All studies performed interventions of mindfulness associated with nutritional counseling. The results obtained demonstrate the effectiveness of this intervention in the behavior and dietary choices, in reducing weight in obese patients, contributes to improve the quality of life and promote greater food awareness. The interventions obtained high acceptance. Final considerations: The practice of mindfulness associated with nutritional counseling proved effective to promote food awareness and adopt a healthier eating behavior, bringing numerous benefits to the quality of life of those who practice itArticle Dengue: prevenção e controle pelas ondas do rádio(2014) Almeida Júnior, José Jailson de; Oliveira, Franklin Learcton Bezerra de; Araújo, Rayane Larissa Santos de; Brilhante, Magdalena Muryelle Silva; Silva, Dany Geraldo Kramer Cavalcanti eArticle Saúde e cidadania: todos juntos na corrente contra a dengue(2014) Almeida Júnior, José Jailson de; Cirne, Gabriele Natane de Medeiros; Araújo, Cynhiane Louyse Menezes de; Santos, Aline da Silva; Silva, Járdia Ayllane da; Menezes, Juliana Martins de; Gomes, Laiana Carla Pereira; Silva, Luana Dantas da; Soares, Mayara Mirelly Lima; Lourenço, Ylana Laíne MedeirosArticle O papel do enfermeiro na promoção à saúde do homem: o contexto das unidades básicas de saúde da cidade de Macaíba/RN(2014) Almeida Júnior, José Jailson de; Bezerra, Elizabeth Aline FerreiraIn the field of collective health, it can be observed that the male population does not seek health services, especially those of primary care, in which the Basic Health Units (BHU)are inserted. The objective of this study is to describe the role of the nurse in men’s health promotion. This is a descriptive type study, with qualitative approach. A survey was conducted with ten nurses from the BHUs, in the municipality of Macaíba, RN, linked to the Family Health Strategy (FHS). From the analysis of interview content, we recognized that one the roles of the nurse working primary care is to train and perfect the community health agents (CHA) to work with the male population; and above all, the essence of the nurse in basic care is related to men’s health promotion through education in health, however concrete actions are necessary, and not just the theoretical discourse on the policy of men’s healthArticle Ética em cuidados paliativos: concepções sobre o fim da vida(FapUNIFESP (SciELO), 2014) Almeida Júnior, José Adailton de; Paiva, Fabianne Christine Lopes de; Damásio, Anne ChristineThe purpose of this article is to highlight the importance of palliative care, as well as the practice of humanized care in the process of human terminality faced by patients who are out of a therapeutic possibility of cure. It was summarized the literature on concepts about such care, its historical trajectory of the Modern Hospice Movement, besides looking at death process and dying under the perspective of mourning phases, stimulating the reflection about bioethical dilemmas associated with aspects of human dignity. The narrative review undertaken emerges as a way to refer to gaps in the understanding of the subject, which requires a wider range of studies and research, especially given the importance of this knowledge for dignified care and a better quality of life for these patients. Regarding ethical issues, the challenge is to consider human dignity at the approach of death beyond the physical dimension of biological and medical perspective.Article Dengue: manual de enfermagem(2014) Almeida Júnior, José Jailson de; Oliveira, Franklin Learcton Bezerra de; Meneses, Rejane Millions VianaArticle Extensão universitária: contribuições na formação de discentes de Enfermagem(2015) Almeida Júnior, José Jailson de; Oliveira, Franklin Learcton Bezerra deIntroduction:University Extension Programmes play a vital role in engaging students through interactions with the local community, and are particularly important in nursing education, as they encourage a more humanistic model of health care.
