EXPRESSIONS THAT CARE
type: item
description: Objective: To present the process of developing a psychological intervention proposal, with a focus on psychoeducation, through discussion groups and the use of artistic resources, designed for patients and their caregivers in an oncology ward at a referral general hospital. Method: The intervention guide was developed by psychology students, based on hospital psychology practice, and structured according to the Maguerez Arc. Observation of the reality revealed a scarcity of spaces for emotional expression and the strengthening of bonds in the context of oncology hospitalization, guiding the development of the material. Results: The activity promotes symbolic expression, the exchange of experiences, and a broader perception of the support network, contributing to the strengthening of bonds and the reduction of feelings of isolation. Final considerations: The proposal constitutes a powerful strategy for the humanization of care and can be applied by healthcare professionals in the hospital setting.

KNOWLEDGE ABOUT FIRST AID IN DIFFERENT POPULATION GROUPS IN BOA VISTA, RORAIMA
type: item
description: Introduction: Medical emergency situations require early recognition and appropriate initial interventions, making first aid knowledge essential for reducing complications and mortality. Despite its relevance to public health, studies indicate that a large portion of the lay population has lacks adequate preparedness to respond to common emergencies. Objective: To evaluate the level of knowledge regarding first aid among different population groups in Boa Vista, Roraima, Brazil. Methods: This cross-sectional, quantitative, and descriptive study was conducted with 316 participants distributed among users of a Primary Health Care Unit, high school students, nursing students, computer science students, and adults approached in the city center. A questionnaire consisting of 14 questions related to first aid was administered, and performance was classified as excellent, sufficient, or inadequate. Results: A statistically significant difference was observed among the evaluated groups (p<0.05). Nursing students achieved the highest scores, whereas high school students presented the lowest performance. Overall, the remaining groups demonstrated predominantly inadequate performance on the questionnaire. Conclusions: The findings reveal important gaps in first aid knowledge among different population segments, reinforcing the need for health education strategies in school, community, and primary health care settings.

EPIDEMIOLOGICAL ANALYSIS OF CONGENITAL SYPHILIS IN CEARÁ, BRAZIL, FROM 2015 TO 2024
type: item
description: Syphilis, vertically transmissible, leads to severe maternal-fetal consequences. This study aimed to analyze the epidemiology of congenital syphilis in Ceará from 2015 to 2024. This is a cross-sectional, descriptive, and retrospective study conducted in January 2025 using data from the Information System for Notifiable Diseases (SINAN). Sociodemographic, clinical, and therapeutic variables were analyzed through descriptive statistics. Data were stored in Excel spreadsheets, using absolute and relative frequencies and incidence calculations to construct graphs and tables. Results evidenced a predominance of mixed-race (Pardo) individuals (10,470; 85.88%), mothers aged 20–25 (4,129; 33.7%), incomplete primary education (3,865; 31.70%), and non-treatment of the partner (7,656; 62.80%). Although most attended prenatal care (10,399; 85.3%), the data suggest inadequacy in follow-up and partner management. It is concluded that qualifying control and assistance strategies is imperative to mitigate this public health concern.

INTERSECTIONALITY IN MENTAL HEALTH DIAGNOSIS
type: item
description: Introduction: Mental disorder diagnosis is influenced by social determinants that permeate health systems and impact care access and quality. Structural inequalities related to race, gender, social class, and sexuality can interfere with psychological distress identification and diagnosis definition, producing inequities in mental health care. In this context, the intersectional approach contributes to understand how multiple social markers interact in the production of these inequalities. Objective: To analyze, through systematic literature review, how intersectionality influences the diagnosis of mental disorders and to discuss implications for care equity and health services. Methods: A systematic review was conducted according to the PRISMA 2020 guidelines, using the PEO strategy. The PubMed, SciELO, and VHL databases were consulted for studies published from 2000 to 2024. The selection was carried out in three stages: duplicate removal, screening by title and abstract, and then full-text reading. Methodological quality was assessed by two independent reviewers using instruments from the Joanna Briggs Institute. Results: It was evident that implicit biases, stigmas, and culturally limited diagnostic models influence accuracy, especially among negro women, transgender people, and individuals in situations of socioeconomic vulnerability. Conclusions: Incorporating an intersectional perspective can contribute to more sensitive diagnosis to social inequalities, strengthening equity in mental health care and improving professional practices, health training, and public policies.

EVALUATION OF THE DENGUE SURVEILLANCE INFORMATION SYSTEMAS A STRATEGIC TOOL FOR EPIDEMIOLOGICAL CONTROL
type: item
description: Dengue is an acute, systemic, and dynamic febrile disease, typically with benign clinical progression but potentially evolving into severe forms, including fatalities. This study evaluated the Dengue Surveillance System in Ceará from 2019 to 2023, using the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) methodology to assess data quality, consistency, and representativity. The completeness of mandatory variables was excellent, with over 90% filled in. However, essential variables such as education level, hospitalization, and likely infection site scored below expectations. Data consistency was high, with less than 5% errors in critical variables. Comparing hospital data between Sinan and SIH systems revealed a strong positive correlation, highlighting the system’s representativity. The study concludes that the surveillance system is of excellent quality and is representative enough to describe dengue in the state.

MISSED NUTRITIONAL APPOINTMENTS IN PRIMARY HEALTH CARE
type: item
description: Absenteeism in nutritional consultations within Primary Health Care affects continuity of care and service efficiency. This study aimed to analyze rates of missed nutritional appointments at a Basic Health Unit in a municipality in Paraná, Brazil, from February to June 2025. This quantitative, descriptive study used secondary data on scheduled and completed consultations. Of 176 appointments, 63.6% were attended and 36.4% were missed, mostly follow-up visits. The findings highlight the need for strategies to reduce missed appointments, such as teleconsultations, automated reminders, and advanced-access scheduling. These measures can optimize resources, strengthen patient engagement, and improve health outcomes. Further multicenter and qualitative studies are recommended to explore factors associated with absenteeism and evaluate the effectiveness of proposed interventions.

MULTIPROFESSIONAL WORK IN A PSYCHOSOCIAL CARE CENTER
type: item
description: Objective: To report and reflect on the strengths and weaknesses of multiprofessional practice in a Psychosocial Care Center (CAPS), from the perspective of a nurse resident in Collective Mental Health. Methods: This is an experience report with a qualitative approach and a narrative-reflective perspective, describing the observation and experience of multiprofessional work during theoretical-practical activities at a CAPS III in Iguatu, Ceará, Brazil, from April to November 2023. Results: Mental health service users presented demands that extended beyond mental illness, requiring comprehensive multiprofessional interventions. However, multiprofessional work was fragmented due to workload overload and service overcrowding, negatively affecting comprehensive care. Despite the daily challenges, recognizing limitations is essential for improving the quality of work processes. Final Considerations: Therefore, the experience highlights the importance of fostering environments of listening, dialogue, and support for healthcare workers, recognizing that strengthened teams are fundamental to providing truly humanized mental health care. Limitations include the restricted time frame and the perspective of a single professional.

RESISTANCE, ANCESTRY, AND COLLECTIVITY IN INDIGENOUS EDUCATION
type: item
description: This article aims to report the experience of Psychology students in conducting a focus group with teachers and staff from an Indigenous school located in the municipality of Pacatuba, Ceará, seeking to understand the teaching profession and educational practices in this context. This is a qualitative study, structured as an experience report, carried out within an internship course, using participant observation, semi-structured interviews, and a focus group as research techniques. The results showed that the Indigenous school functions as a space of cultural resistance, in which education is intrinsically connected to ancestry, spirituality, and collectivity. The observed pedagogical practices go beyond the hegemonic school model, valuing intergenerational knowledge transmission and collective work. It is concluded that the experience contributed to the appreciation of Indigenous knowledge and to strengthening the students’ academic training, reaffirming the importance of research practices committed to the decolonization of knowledge.

EPIDEMIOLOGICAL PROFILE OF CANINE VISCERAL LEISHMANIASIS CASES IN A MUNICIPALITY IN THE NORTHERN MACROREGION OF THE STATE OF CEARÁ
type: item
description: Visceral leishmaniasis is a notifiable disease caused by protozoa of the genus Leishmania. The uncontrolled growth of urban areas contributes to the proliferation of the vector. This study aimed to analyze the epidemiological profile of canine visceral leishmaniasis cases in the municipality of Ipueiras-CE from January 2023 to December 2025. Data from monitoring tests by the municipality's endemic diseases sector were used for statistical analysis. The results indicated that the number of tests performed in the municipality is insufficient (362 tests/year) to have an idea of the real epidemiological situation of the disease and that most cases occurred in the months of February to June in two neighborhoods (37.8%) in the city center. It is concluded that there is a need for investment in hiring Community Endemic Disease Agents to carry out the tests, as well as for health education actions with other health professionals and the population.

EPIDEMIOLOGICAL PROFILE OF HIV POST-EXPOSURE PROPHYLAXIS CONSULTATIONS (2017–2023)
type: item
description: Objective: To assess the epidemiological profile of HIV PEP consultations at Hospital São José de Doenças Infecciosas from 2017 to 2023. Method: Retrospective study with medical record review and descriptive analysis of epidemiological variables: sex, age, and type of exposure. Results: Of the 29,868 HIV PEP consultations, 66.7% resulted from sexual exposures. Of these, 3.7% involved sexual violence, mostly among females < 18 years old. Consensual sexual exposure (CSE) was the main reason for HIV PEP (64.3%), being more common among men aged 25–29. A steady increase in consultations was observed over the years, both for occupational accidents and for CSE. Final considerations: Demand for HIV PEP has been increasing. The main form of risk exposure is CSE among young men, followed by occupational accidents. These results highlight the importance of expanding access to PEP services, conducting campaigns addressing correct condom use and information about PEP, and providing ongoing training on the prevention of occupational accidents.

DISSEMINATION OF KNOWLEDGE IN STATE SCHOOLS OF PUBLIC HEALTH
type: item
description: Objective: To analyze the dissemination of technical-scientific knowledge by the 21 Brazilian State Schools of Public Health. Methods: Descriptive-exploratory research with a quantitative approach, based on documentary analysis of institutional websites to identify formal strategies for knowledge dissemination. Results: Heterogeneity was observed among the Schools regarding the existence, regularity, and visibility of editorial instruments. Eleven Schools maintain active electronic scientific journals, and three publish technical-scientific bulletins. In seven states, no technical-scientific publications were found on institutional portals, revealing asymmetries in institutional communication processes. All Schools actively use social media and hold annual technical-scientific events, regardless of the existence of journals or bulletins. Conclusion: Knowledge dissemination by the Schools aligns with territorial needs and with teaching–service–community integration practices, yet it still faces challenges related to standardization, continuity, and the strengthening of information management policies.

type: item
description: Objective: To describe the microbial resistance (MR) profile associated with laboratory-confirmed primary bloodstream infections (LCPBIs) reported in adult intensive care units (ICUs) in Ceará, from 2021 to 2023. Methods: A cross-sectional, descriptive, retrospective study with secondary data aggregated from the Brazilian Health Regulatory Agency (ANVISA), derived from notifications of healthcare-associated infections (HAIs) and MR; records with identified microorganisms and sensitivity testing were included. Results: The incidence density (ID) ranged from 3.45 to 10.51 per 1,000 patient-days. In Gram-negative bacteria, high resistance to cephalosporins (CEF) and carbapenems (CARB) was observed in Klebsiella pneumoniae, Acinetobacter spp., and Enterobacter spp., in addition to significant resistance to ceftazidime/avibactam (CAZ-AVI) in 2023. Among Gram-positive bacteria, resistance to vancomycin (VANCO) in enterococci and to oxacillin (OXA) in staphylococci stood out. Conclusions: The findings reinforce the surveillance of HAIs and the qualification of actions for prevention, control, and rational use of antimicrobials.
