Knowledge on the HPV vaccine among university students
The objective is to evaluate knowledge on HPV vaccine and its use among university students. This is a cross-sectional study with 301 participants, of which 202 medical students from UERJ and UNIFESO (101 freshmen = M1 and 101 from the 6th year = M2) and 99 UERJ literature students (50 freshmen = L1 and 49 of the last year = L2). Information was obtained by questionnaires. Input and statistical analysis were carried out with the EPI-INFO 3.5.2 Program. Results showed that, among medical students, 21% of M1 and 16% of M2 used the HPV vaccine (p=0.35), mostly adopted by women (M1=29.7% and M2=21.3%) than men (M1=5.4% and M2=7.5%). Similarly, female students showed more interest in using the vaccine (M1=85.1% and M2=80%) than male (M1=56.2% and M2=20.5%). Among literature students, only women received the vaccine (L1=6.5% and L2=22.2%) and no men were vaccinated (p=0.04). More women expressed interest in receiving the vaccine than men (♀ L1=76%, L2=65% and ♂ L1=47%, L2=40%). Comparison among genders regardless of the course showed that the vaccination rate is higher among women (p<0.001), as is the interest in being vaccinated (p=0.004). We concluded that the majority of male university students know less about the HPV vaccine than the female ones, use less and are less interested in being vaccinated, in all the groups interviewed. Vaccination coverage is low among the university population and is higher among medical students

types of cervical cytopathological findings in
adolescents who were treated in public health
services between 1993 and 2006. This is a cohort
study, with the following inclusion criteria: < 20
years of age, sexually-active, without cervical le-sions upon entry into the study or sexually ac-tive < 1 year. The data were collected from 403
adolescents’ medical records. Incidence density of
cytopathological alterations was estimated and
the actuarial method was used to calculate the 5-year incidence during follow-up after sexual ini-tiation. In the first year of sexual activity, the inci-dence of cervical lesions was 24.1%. The incidence
decreased to 3-8% over the following 4 years. The
incidence density was 4.7 cases per 100 persons
per year. The first abnormal cytological diagnosis
showed atypical squamous cells of undetermined
significance (ASCUS) in 5.5% (22) of patients, low-grade squamous intra-epithelial lesions (LSIL) in
28% (113), and high-grade squamous intraepi-thelial lesions (HSIL) in 3% (12). Eight (67%) cas-es of HSIL occurred during the first year of sexual
activity. The incidence of cytopathological find-ings at beginning of sexual life is high, suggesting
the importance of including sexually-active ado-lescents in cervical cancer prevention program

Estudo de coorte, tendo como critérios de inclusão: idade < 20 anos, apresentar atividade sexual, citopatologia negativa para lesão cervical na entrada do estudo ou tempo de atividade sexual <1 ano. Os dados foram coletados de prontuários de 403 adolescentes. Foi estimada densidade de incidência, e para o cálculo da incidência das alterações citopatológicas referentes a cinco anos de acompanhamento após atividade sexual foi utilizado o método atuarial. No primeiro ano de atividade sexual, a incidência de lesões cervicais foi de 24,1%. Houve redução da incidência nos quatro anos subseqüentes com variação entre 3-8%. A densidade de incidência foi de 4,7 casos/100 pessoas-ano. O primeiro diagnóstico citológico anormal mostrou atipias em células escamosas de significado indeterminado (ASCUS) em 5,5% (22) das pacientes, lesão intra-epitelial escamosa de baixo grau (LSIL) em 28% (113) e lesão intra-epitelial escamosa de alto grau (HSIL) em 3% (12). Oito (67%) dos casos de HSIL ocorreram no primeiro ano de atividade sexual. A incidência de alterações citopatológicas é alta no início da vida sexual, sugerindo ser importante a inclusão das adolescentes sexualmente ativas no Programa de Controle do Câncer de Colo Uterino
Proportion and factors associated with Apgar less than 7 in the 5th minute of life: from 1999 to 2019, what has changed?
Abstract Although variation between observers in the assessment of the Apgar score, it remains a useful indicator of the general conditions of the newborn. This is a cross-sectional study based on population of live births in Brazil in 1999 and biennium 2018-2019. All declarations of live births (DNV) obtained from the Live Births System database were accessed. Frequencies were compared between groups using Pearson’s chi-square test and multivariate logistic regression analysis was performed. A statistical significance level of 0.05 was considered. We included 9.050.521 DNVs in our research. We found that 2,1% of newborns had 5th minute Apgar </p

Rio de Janeiro, RJ, Brasil.Universidade de São Paulo. Faculdade de Saúde Pública. São Paulo, SP, Brasil.Objetivo
Avaliar o nível de implantação da Iniciativa Unidade Básica Amiga da Amamentação em uma metrópole brasileira.
Métodos
Com base em protocolos validados, criou-se ferramenta de avaliação do nível de implantação composta por 55
parâmetros, gerando escore final que poderia variar de 0 a 10 pontos. Aplicou-se essa ferramenta em amostra
probabilística das unidades básicas municipais de saúde da cidade do Rio de Janeiro (n=56). Foram entrevistados
gestores (n=56), profissionais de saúde (n=541) e usuárias (n=985).
Resultados
A média do escore final das unidades básicas municipais de saúde referente ao nível de implantação da Iniciativa
Unidade Básica Amiga da Amamentação foi de 5,45 (IC95%: 5,11 - 5,78). Observaram-se piores resultados em
relação à norma escrita e ao treinamento. As técnicas de massagem e de ordenha das mamas, conhecimentos
sobre contracepção, riscos do uso de fórmulas infantis, mamadeiras e chupetas e a implantação de grupos de
apoio apresentaram resultados intermediários. As orientações sobre direitos, vantagens e recomendações
relativas à amamentação, a escuta das preocupações, vivências e dúvidas da clientela e o encorajamento da
amamentação sob livre demanda tiveram resultados mais satisfatórios.
Conclusão
A ferramenta desenvolvida permitiu a avaliação do nível geral de implantação da Iniciativa Unidade Básica
Amiga da Amamentação e de cada conjunto de ações correspondentes aos “Dez Passos”, fornecendo subsídios
para reorientação das estratégias utilizadas na cidade. A cidade do Rio de Janeiro apresenta nível intermediário
de implantação das ações de promoção, proteção e apoio à amamentação, preconizadas pela Iniciativa e pela
heterogeneidade na implantação das atividades que a compõem.Objective
This study assessed the degree of implementation of the Breastfeeding-Friendly Primary Care Initiative in a
Brazilian metropolis.
Methods
A tool with 55 items and a maximum score of 10 points, based on validated protocols, was developed for
assessing the degree of implementation of the abovementioned initiative. This tool was used on a probabilistic
sample of municipal primary care units in the city of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil (n=56). Managers (n=56), healthcare
practitioners (n=541) and users (n=985) were interviewed.
Results
The mean score for the degree of implementation of the Breastfeeding-Friendly Primary Care Initiative in the
study units was 5.45 (95%CI: 5.11 - 5.78), the maximum being 10.00. Existence of written guidelines and
training obtained the worst scores. Breast massage and manual milk expression techniques; knowledge about contraception and the risks associated with the use of baby formulas, bottles, and pacifiers; and existence of
support groups obtained intermediate scores. Provision of information and recommendations on breastfeeding
rights and advantages; addressing users’ worries, life experiences, and doubts; and encouraging cue feeding
achieved the best scores.
Conclusion
The proposed tool assessed the general degree of implementation of the Breastfeeding-Friendly Primary Care
Initiative and of each group of actions associated with the “Ten Steps”, providing information for restructuring
the strategies used in Rio de Janeiro. The degree of implementation of breastfeeding promotion, protection,
and support set by the initiative in this city is intermediate, with its items having been implemented to different
degrees
