Abstract

MARTINS, Mário Henrique da Mata e SPINK, Mary Jane Paris. Health communication in campaigns to prevent human leptospirosis in Maceió, Alagoas, Brazil. Interface (Botucatu) [online]. 2019, vol.23, e180709. Epub 26-Ago-2019. ISSN 1414-3283. http://dx.doi.org/10.1590/interface.180709. Health communication actions in campaigns to prevent leptospirosis in Maceió are discussed. The method consisted of a multimodal analysis of five posters, two folders and one pamphlet used in leptospirosis campaigns between 1996 and 2017 and a content analysis of two interviews with users who were affected by the disease. Results show that: the original purpose of the materials alters its discursive effect but in terms of main visual effects it focuses mainly on the rat; campaigns use a unilateral, directive and

Abstract

BELLOTTO, Paula Cristina Barth; LOPEZ, Laura Cecília; PICCININI, Cesar Augusto and GONCALVES, Tonantzin Ribeiro. Between the woman and saving the baby: HIV-positive women’s experiences of giving birth. Interface (Botucatu) [online]. 2019, vol.23, e180556. Epub Aug 19, 2019. ISSN 1414-3283. http://dx.doi.org/10.1590/interface.180556. This article analyzes HIV-positive women’s experiences of giving birth from the perspective of feminist bioethics. A multiple case study was conducted with six women interviewed during pregnancy and three months after giving birth. The findings reveal that the women showed limited participation in choosing the mode of delivery, lack of antenatal guidance – including prevention of vertical transmission (VT) –, and limited use of analgesia and pain management techniques, demonstrating flaws in the

Comprehensive Care Policy for users of alcohol and other drugs: a narrative-guided analysis

Abstract

SILVA, Maria Alice Bastos and ABRAHAO, Ana Lúcia. Comprehensive Care Policy for users of alcohol and other drugs: a narrative-guided analysis. Interface (Botucatu) [online]. 2020, vol.24, e190080. Epub Sep 23, 2019. ISSN 1414-3283. http://dx.doi.org/10.1590/interface.190080. The drug abuse issue and formats of care of addicts gather different sectors of the society around discourses related to banning and damage mitigation. This article aims to analyze the enunciation mechanisms of the Brazilian Ministry of Health’s managers when the Comprehensive Care Policy for Users of Alcohol and other Drugs was created. The narratives were analyzed under the genealogical perspective inspired by Michel Foucault. We highlighted fragments in the enunciation mechanisms that backs up a criminalizing and excluding territory.

Abstract

RAIMONDI, Gustavo Antonio; MOREIRA, Cláudio and BARROS, Nelson Filice de. The body denied by its “extreme subjectivity”: expressions of the coloniality of knowledge in research ethics. Interface (Botucatu) [online]. 2019, vol.23, e180434. Epub Aug 19, 2019. ISSN 1414-3283. http://dx.doi.org/10.1590/interface.180434. In the quest to understand the (in)visibility of non-heteronormative bodies in medical education, a process that systematically grounds its institutional discourse on the biological coherence, I looked at my gay body both as a doctor and professor to understand this culture and its consequences. The objective of the article is to discuss the initial institutional confrontations faced by an autoethnographic research regarding homoaffectivity in medical education and practice. This work is aimed towards understanding the

Abstract

MONTE-SERRAT, Dionéia Motta et al. Reality and myth about legal healthcare support and quality of life in the Brazilian elderly. Interface (Botucatu) [online]. 2019, vol.23, e190146. Epub 19-Ago-2019. ISSN 1414-3283. http://dx.doi.org/10.1590/interface.190146. The main aim of the study was to evaluate the effectiveness of the government’s social security cover on support and healthcare and its impact on quality of life of elderly in Brazil. We examine discursively in a qualitative study the State’s political commitment towards ageing issues; ageing seen as a social problem; and the government policies to ensure the quality of life in Brazil. Our main finding was that Brazilian’s elderly protection laws will cease to be a myth when these same elders are aware that
