Abstract NIY, Denise Yoshie et al. Overcoming the culture of physical immobilization of birthing women in Brazilian healthcare system? Findings of an intervention study in São Paulo, Brazil. Interface (Botucatu) [online]. 2019, vol.23, e180074. Epub 30-Maio-2019. ISSN 1414-3283. http://dx.doi.org/10.1590/interface.180074.

There was a divergence between health managers’ and professionals’ perceptions of maternal care practice and those of the service users and the observations made

Abstract

BERNAL-MENESES, Lara; GABELAS-BARROSO, José Antonio and MARTA-LAZO, Carmen. Relation, information and communication technologies (RICTs) as a tool for social integration.

Abstract

PEREIRA, Audrey Vidal; OLIVEIRA, Simone Santos e ROTENBERG, Lucia. Migration of demands between the public and private spheres from the point of view of gender relations: a study with nurses. Interface (Botucatu) [online]. 2019, vol.23, e170448. Epub 15-Abr-2019. ISSN 1414-3283. http://dx.doi.org/10.1590/interface.170448. The attenuation of the public-private limits, typical of contemporaneity, favors the migration of demands between the professional and domestic spheres, called work-home permeability. This study seeks to analyze the permeability from a gender perspective, based on individual interviews with 42 nurses (18 men and 24 women), confronting them with the image of their respective use of time during a week. Having management positions was linked to greater demands in the professional field, making

Abstract

SLOMP JUNIOR, Helvo et al. Magic or enchantment? Management committees in the Brazilian National Health System and changes in healthcare modes. Interface (Botucatu) [online]. 2019, vol.23, e170395. Epub Apr 15, 2019. ISSN 1414-3283. http://dx.doi.org/10.1590/interface.170395. In a qualitative research about healthcare production in the health networks, the role of management committees in an experience of change in the government of health was evaluated. Using a cartographic approach, we found that the activation of the committees by the government aimed at a double task: to promote institutional democracy and to create governability for the proposed change. Nevertheless, the committees’ agendas were predominantly restricted to technical or professional matters, and there was some tension involving several of the

Abstract

COSTA-VAL, Alexandre et al. On anorexia and bulimia: conceptions and etiological suppositions from the perspective of Health professionals. Interface (Botucatu) [online]. 2019, vol.23, e170293. Epub Apr 15, 2019. ISSN 1414-3283. http://dx.doi.org/10.1590/interface.170293. Anorexia and bulimia are serious syndromes that require careful management. Clinical practice and literature show, however, that their approach is often inadequate. In this study, we were interested in knowing the discourse of health professionals about the characterization and etiology of these disorders. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with 13 workers from the public health network of a city in Minas Gerais/Brazil. From the points of convergence, divergence and silence of the speech, we locate discursive axes such as distortion of the body image; stigma;

Abstract

LANGBECKER, Andrea; CASTELLANOS, Marcelo Eduardo Pfeiffer and CATALAN-MATAMOROS, Daniel. What do news-values say about the Brazilian National Health System? Exploring the theoretical-conceptual frameworks of newsworthiness (abstract: p. 15). Interface (Botucatu) [online]. 2019, vol.23, e170940. Epub Apr 15, 2019. ISSN 1414-3283. http://dx.doi.org/10.1590/interface.170940. News-values are factors intrinsic to facts that determine their potential as news stories. The present study proposes a reflection on the theoretical-conceptual framework that structures the news and that support the analytical choices to study the news coverage of the Brazilian National Health System (SUS). Comparatively, it discusses the typology developed by authors Traquina and Silva about the selected news values. Silva adds to Tranquina’s classification by adding news values “knowledge”, “entertainment/curiosity”,
