The scope of this study was to assess the literature on the characteristics of patients, physicians, and physician-patient relationships considered 'problematic.' An integrative review of primary studies published between January 1, 2016, and September 30, 2021, in Portuguese, English and Spanish was conducted, Of the 3,414 papers identified in the PubMed, Embase, Scopus and Lilacs databases, 19 were selected for qualitative analysis. Seven studies were carried out in Europe, eight in North America, two in South America and two in China, totaling 1,694 patients, 1,903 assistant physicians, 101 residents and 160 medical academics. Physicians and academics considered the following to be problematic: patients with clinical conditions such as psychosomatic and chronic illnesses; symptoms and complaints such as pain; powerful emotions; problems in obtaining and sharing information, in decision-making, in the adherence to the therapeutic plan and in their self-care; and some sociodemographic and vulnerability characteristics. Among other aspects, patients, or their relatives, considered physicians to be problematic when they did not listen to them or appear to care about their children, Teaching medical communication and systemic interventions are recommended to improve physician-patient relationships.

Objective: To review the literature about children's and parent's perceptions on surgical attire., Data Source: A systematic search was conducted in the databases EMBASE, Latin American and Caribbean Health Sciences (LILACS), PubMed, PsycINFO, Scopus and Web of Science.

After a two-phase selection, 15 studies were included in narrative synthesis. Children favored wearing white coats in five of the nine included studies (55.5% [95%CI 48.3-62.7]; p=1.00). With respect to parents' preferences, results of vote counting showed that in 11 of 15 included studies, they favored physicians wearing white coats (73.3% [95%CI 67.9-78.6]; p=0.11)., Conclusions: Children and parents have preferred physicians to wear a white coat with a very low certainty of evidence.

This paper studies news published in the newspaper Estado de São Paulo between 1969 and 2015 about transsexuality. The objectives consist in verifying the themes of the newspaper articles and identify the voices that are present, besides carrying out a characterization of the newspaper according to the assumption of communicative situation in Linguistics. The obtained results show an increase in the number of articles published over time, as well as the broadening of subjects covered. While in the first twenty years, only doctors and jurists talk about the theme, from 1990 onwards, transsexual people start to be heard by journalists. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
