The missionaries of the Society of Jesus emerged as significant social and political agents in the Colony, allowing the presence of the crown to be felt. As these men took on the responsibility for the health care of the colony's inhabitants, this enabled the Order to build a significant body of knowledge, the restricted circulation of which among its members conferred political importance upon them in the Portuguese Court. Communication, in this context, is positioned as a tool for gathering power in the face of situations experienced by the missionaries, due to its political dimension. Lastly, we seek to highlight the role of the circulation of missionary knowledge in the process of power configuration in the colonial world. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

What does the incessant return of the Brazilian national team jersey between June 2013 and the government of Jair Bolsonaro mean? What is its role? What does football have to do with Brazil's public life in the early 21st century? Does its intervention in the recent political and social history of the country limit itself to the appearance of the national team jersey and its appropriation by extreme-right movements and parties? These are some of the questions that this article seeks to answer. To do so, the analysis mobilizes the theoretical-methodological framework of Greimas' discursive semiotics and Jurij Lotman's semiotics of culture, combining micro analyses of specific texts, practices, and discourses with macro analyses of broader and transversal sociocultural configurations, revealing the links between the semiospheres of football, politics, media, and religion.

Based on the field of Communication and Health, this work seeks to present some of the ways in which rights in Brazil, in particular those associated with access to information and to communication as inseparable from the right to health, are obstructed, compromising the exercise of citizenship. To do so, we employ the estheticexpressive paradigm in the (re)construction of that which represents a kind of continuum of knowledge production, sustained by the metaphors of typography and the guillotine, impacting on the reconfiguration of the category of truth. With this movement, what guides the centrality of the present reflection is the false opposition between emotion and reason, producing subjective effects which interfere in the relationship between social actors and Brazil's Unified Healthcare System (SUS). To conclude, we outline the extent to which narrative strategies structure not only the way in which social subjects perceive the world, but also their actions on it. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This article, which is part of the debate on Communication and Environment, analyses reasons for the scarce coverage, with a predominantly economic bias, on wind energy produced by the main potiguar newspaper Tribuna do Norte, between January 2003 and January 2004. This period was a milestone for media planning on the topic due to social, economic, and environmental expectations related to the opening of the first wind farm in the state of Rio Grande do Norte, currently the largest producer of this type of energy in Brazil. The State was moving towards production of sustainable energy, which is why we sought to understand the context in which the theme gained visibility due to its environmental relevance for the country. The methodological path chosen was based on Critical Discourse Analysis (FAIRCLOUGH, 1989, 1995, 2001), represented by "Discursive Practice" and "Sociocultural Practice". [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The paper presents the initial proposal for a communication model based on the ontological turn, taking the knowledge of the original peoples of Brazil not as a metaphor, but as analogues of concepts, based on three folds. The first one, the communication of things, deals with the contributions of actor-network theory to the field of communication, especially from the perspective that humans and nonhumans communicate, as a shortcut to access the second fold, communication between worlds, especially from the understanding of the hyperconnection of forest peoples as a communicational experience. The third fold concerns the Amerindian shamanic translation operation, which we intend to take as a reference to think about communication by equivocation. Finally, we systematized the proposal as a starting point for further research. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The article critically reviews the coloniality of Brazilian Communicational Approaches based on the five most cited Communication Theories books in Brazil. This self-criticism locates the hybris of the zero point of such narratives, which delimits only one after modernity, with the emergence of massive phenomena added to the technical advances of the media and the professional specialization of Communication skills. We investigate how the dominant modern colonial paradigm is discursively manifested in the books. American and European approaches, formulated by white men, predominate, which configure a canon traditionally perpetuated in the teaching of Communication in Brazil. This reinforces the mutual relationship between coloniality of power, knowledge and gender, focusing on and shaping a geopolitics of knowledge. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The Romani people are a minority that has been historically excluded, neglected, and persecuted in the different countries where they are settled, especially if we consider the context of their arrival in Europe and the colonization processes developed by European nations. Thus, this paper sheds light on how the Romani communities have been impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic from the communication and health perspective and provides a critical view of the abovementioned processes. We discuss theoretically how these ethnicities are crossed by multiple oppressions that place them in an unequal situation and the role of communication in their social inclusion or the maintenance of their exclusion. We highlight how their invisibility and how historical stereotypes were highlighted during the pandemic, deepening the unequal relations. From a critical perspective on discursive relations, we analyzed two journalistic reports from 2020, the local newspaper O Popular in Brazil and the national newspaper ABC in Spain. Some results suggest that the Romani population has been somewhat held accountable for disseminating the virus. Moreover, they seem to have been silenced as subjects capable of articulating and reflecting on their conditions and situations in the pandemic context, showing similarities in the portrayal of the Romani people in the Ibero-American context.

This study aimed to present educational interventions in the context of the Education Program through PET-Health Interprofessionality (PET-I), carried out in teaching and in healthcare service of a municipality of Goiás state, based on the analysis of focus groups and portfolios made by participants. A descriptive exploratory study with a qualitative approach was carried out, based on the theoretical-conceptual and methodological foundations of interprofessional education, from August 2019 to November 2020. It was observed that students perceived participation in PET-I as an opportunity to interact with other professions, to associate theory with practice and to act as leading actors. Participants believe that working together to provide the best care for patients requires a basic understanding of the different perspectives and responsibilities of professionals involved. They emphasized informal conversations, meetings, and case discussions as opportunities to understand professional's opinions and assignments, and deepen their understanding of the importance of collaborative communication.

Objective: To investigate the perception of professionals who experience the palliative extubation process. Methods: Qualitative, exploratory, descriptive study carried out in the pediatric palliative care unit of a public hospital in the state health network of Minas Gerais, in 2020. Results: Eleven health professionals were interviewed. Four thematic categories emerged: Knowledge prior to palliative extubation; Conduct planning; Communication between the team and sharing of care and Perception and understanding of the procedure. Professionals reported greater theoretical knowledge about palliative extubation, however, they stated that they understood the procedure better in practice. Some professional classes did not feel included in the care planning, which included a previous conversation with the patient's family members and discussion about the care plan. Failures in communication between team members were also evidenced by non-medical professionals. The procedure was understood by all professionals as necessary due to the child's clinical prognosis. Conclusion: It is necessary to carry out further research related to the perceptions of the multidisciplinary team regarding care strategies in palliative care units so that the conducts are aligned and there is greater involvement of the entire team.

This study seeks to show how decolonial thinking, from the perspective of communication, built from the reality of Brazil and Latin America, serves to analyze an experience of organizing emigrants' alternative political struggles. For this, it is proposed a content analyze that shows how the themes communication, information and culture were constituted in four official documents of the group that formalize needs and record proposals for improving the lives of Brazilian emigrants abroad. The results point to ideas and concrete actions that allow us to visualize that, in the face of a colonial relationship, the experience from the global South contributes to another possible, emancipatory and renewing reality.

Objective: To analyze the temporal trend of completeness and consistency of data on notifications of violence against indigenous women in the health macro-region of Dourados, state of Mato Grosso do Sul, Brazil, between 2009 and 2020., Methods: An ecological time series study was conducted using data from the Notifiable Health Conditions Information System; Prais-Winsten regression was used to analyze the trend of data completeness and consistency, as well as the proportion of completed and coherent fields., Results: A total of 2,630 cases were reported; completeness was found to be very poor in the variable "occupation" (48.9%) and poor in the variables "schooling" (68.3%) and "time of occurrence" (67.9%); in the analysis of temporal trends, only the variable "occupation" showed a decreasing trend (p = 0.045)., Conclusion: The data analyzed demonstrated the need for improvement in the completeness of the variables "schooling", "occupation" and "time of occurrence" of the violent act., Main Results: There was a progressive increase in notifications over the years. Most of the variables showed regular or excellent completeness and consistency. In the analysis of temporal trend, only the "occupation" variable showed a decreasing trend., Implications for Services: Care for victims of violence is part of the daily routine of health services, and it is essential for health professionals to provide adequate compulsory notification for a comprehensive understanding of the victims' profile, thus assisting in addressing this issue., Perspectives: Further studies are needed to understand the factors associated with violence against indigenous women, which could help the development of health promotion actions and violence prevention strategies targeting these women.

Objective: To understand communication in the prevention of arboviruses in Brazil through the analysis of the perception of communities in 17 municipalities in the five Brazilian regions about the audiovisual campaigns carried out by the Ministry of Health on dengue, chikungunya and Zika in the period from 2014 to 2018. Methods: Qualitative research, which articulates bibliographic, documentary and action research. The collective participation in the debate between the subjects, who express themselves, listen to their peers and themselves through a reflective exercise, is associated with action research. Thematic content analysis was adopted. The recorded dialogues were transcribed, categorized and interpreted. Results: The following categories of analysis emerged: form of access to the content of communication campaigns, a esthetic nature of the analyzed messages, identification with the public, situations and campaign messages, and evaluation of the quality of the material in the fulfillment of its objectives. Conclusion: There was a need to decentralize communication actions, investing in interpersonal and community strategies considering local contexts. Danger alert is considered important in risky situations, but the involved communicators lack skills. The population understands that targeted campaigns are more effective, but they demand more informative and educational strategies for preventing arboviruses. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This article analyzes how gender differences appear in the daily lives of women working in communication. Unlike most studies on gender and communication, which are focused on state capitals and large communication outlets, this article investigates gender issues within a specific scenario: Imperatriz, in Maranhão - a small city located in the countryside of Brazil, where the field of communication is under development and communication professionals have a limited scope. This empirical research was conducted with data collected by mapping the professionals, a survey applied to 56 female professionals, and interviews conducted with ten women. The main results evince the difficulties faced by these professionals in establishing themselves within the labor market, the lack of attitude on the part of companies towards discussing this theme, and barriers to expose these problems.

Despite being a traditional poetic form, of oriental and literally millennial origin, haiku has gradually acquired new forms after it arrived in Brazil, about a century ago. Among several Brazilian writers, the role of the writer Millôr Fernandes can be highlighted in the process of development of a "Brazilian way" of composing haiku, including generous and often simultaneous doses of good humor and criticism. In 2020, with the beginning of the Covid-19 pandemic and under a federal government heavily criticized for its performance in the areas of Health and Education, two university professors from the region of Vale do Paraíba decided to register the day-to-day life of the pandemic in Brazil by haiku, inaugurating a project informally named "Haikaus", in progress since March 2021. In this work, we discuss the characteristics and potentialities of this form of recording at a single chronic and critical time of the recent history of our country, presenting for this a sample of the haikais produced in this context, accompanied by evaluation of the themes addressed, with the construction of a cloud of words to facilitate visual analysis.

Objective: To describe the development of the nursing process in the psychic and emotional dimensions of patients in a general hospital. Methods: Exploratory and qualitative research with the participation of nine nurses from a hospital in Curitiba, Paraná, Brazil, in 2018. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews and submitted to Content Analysis. The phases of the Nursing Process described in Resolution 358/2009 of the Federal Nursing Council were used as an analytical matrix. Results: The participants described the observation, perception, active search in medical records, communication as strategies for collecting nursing data; demonstrated difficulties in using nursing diagnoses, planning and implementing specific care in the psychosocial dimension. Collaborative care with the multiprofessional team was emphasized. They stated that some nursing evaluations were impaired due to the reduced time spent by patients in the services. Conclusion: The development of the nursing process with a focus on the psychological and emotional dimensions in a general hospital is a challenge for nursing. Health institutions should invest in permanent education to train the nursing staff for quality care. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper aims to investigate the Compós' WG papers: Epistemology of Communication and Communication and Cyberculture. The objective is to test the hypothesis that the field of communication in Brazil is still not very sensitive to neomaterialists theories, and that approaches to objects and to the field as a whole are developed under an anthropocentric perspective. 60 papers were analyzed. The data show that among the 37 texts with evident epistemological position, 62% are anthropocentric, and 13% non-anthropocentric, 50% are in Communication and Cyberculture WG, and 71% in Epistemology of Communication WG. Due to the non-probabilistic approach used in this investigation, we cannot generalize the findings. However, the results support our hypothesis, pointing out that although it is rising, anthropocentric perspectives still predominate. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Objective: to understand the care for the frail elderly provided by family-related inpatient caregivers, as well as their interaction with the Family Health Strategy, from the perspective of caregivers. Method: exploratory-descriptive, qualitative study conducted with 17 informal family-related caregivers of frail elderly from a Family Health Strategy in Minas Gerais, Brazil. Data collected between September/2019 and February/2020, through an interview with semi-structured script and questionnaire. Content analysis was performed, thematic type. Results: most caregivers were women, 26-79 years old, white and brown, married and low schooling. Effective communication between the health team and the family/elderly caregiver, to the detriment of high turnover of professionals of the Family Health Strategy, excessive demand for functions and lack of training and technical ability of the caregiver. Final thoughts: care for the frail elderly belonged to the female universe and aroused a mixture of feelings. Interaction between caregivers and family health strategy was generally mediated by the Community Health Agent. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Objective: To report on the adaptations made to the original Nominal Group Technique (NGT), allowing it to be applied to the virtual format, preserving all its key elements., Method: An experience report on the adaptations and adjustments made to the original NGT to the virtual format using Information and Communication Technologies (ICT), using digital tools that are available free of charge or are low cost and easy to use., Results: The NGT was carried out entirely virtually and underwent adaptations in each of its four stages through the incorporation of specific digital resources. It was possible to present the most voted ideas and obtain final approval from the participants. The participants had no difficulty in using the virtual resources provided and, based on the reaction evaluation, they were satisfied with the tools provided., Conclusion: The adapted NGT proved to be an effective method when used in a virtual setting, capable of producing a significant number of ideas and developing consensus. The adapted tool can be used by other researchers in countries with similar resources or dimensions to Brazil.

Objective: To characterize the perceptions and feelings of parents diagnosed with cancer in relation to communication with their children between 3 and 12 years old., Method: A cross-sectional, multicenter, with data triangulation, through structured and semi-structured interviews, with a question with a Semantic Differential Scale, carried out with the father or mother with cancer undergoing outpatient treatment in two hospital institutions in the city of São Paulo, São Paulo, Brazil. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, content analysis, using the ATLAS.ti 8.0R software and the Social Representation Theory., Results: Forty-three respondents participated, 37 (86.0%) were female, 23 (53.5%) aged between 31 and 50 years old, 29 (67.5%) with only children between 7 and 12 years old. The experience was considered painful (73.1%), stressful (53.6%), clear (53.7%) and safe (51.2%). The feelings experienced generated two categories: Trial by fire; and Grateful rewards. Children's reactions from parents' perspective generated the categories: Sadness and suffering; Trust and support; Change of behavior; and Denial or insensitivity., Conclusion: Communication was assessed as negative and conflicting, positive and welcoming, and causing changes in children's behaviors.

The emergence of civil associations in favor of cannabis began in the 2010s. Faced with the inertia of the State, these organizations have acted in the reception, support, information, training, and facilitation of access for patients and their families to the medicine produced from marijuana, a prohibited substance in Brazil. This study aims to analyze how cannabis activism promoted by Brazilian associations is based on scientific knowledge or knowledge acquired through the experience of members. The methodology included interviews with participants from the ACuCa, Ama+me, and Apepi associations, as well as the Content Analysis of the profiles of these institutions on Instagram. It was found that cannabis activism on Instagram is similar to that practiced in person; however, activism on social media prioritizes the dissemination of knowledge through information and training of its followers, being careful to treat the content in order to suit the guidelines of the platform. In addition, the main lines of action of cannabis associations (reception and distribution of medicinal oils) appear in a veiled way in the publications, most of which occur through private conversations in the media with the associations.

Information and Communication Technologies in Health allow the storage and processing of digital data, access to information and remote communications. The objective of this article was to describe the use of these Technologies to support clinical practice and continuing education by primary health care teams in Brazil the period of 2014 to 2018, within the scope of the Access and Quality Improvement Program Basic, according to characteristics of the geopolitical context. It's a cross-sectional study that analyzed the data collected from the teams of the Basic Health Units. A growing use by the teams of Telehealth resources, the Telemedicine University Network and the Open University of the Unified Health System was observed to aid clinical practice and permanent health education. In the North and Northeast regions, the use of these Technologies doubled, from cycle II to cycle III. The need for investments in infrastructure, human resources in Primary Health Care, qualification and professional training is a way to strengthen the Unified Health System and its Health Care Network, contributing to a continuous flow of care, with quality and access universal.

Studies demonstrate that Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) can assist in the emancipation of users, offering them the possibility of accessing information and knowledge in order to become agents of their own history. In this sense, the objective of this investigation is to analyze the use of ICTs by farming families in the southern region of Brazil, pointing out the limits and possibilities in the context of family farming. To achieve this goal, forms were applied to thirty family units in the municipalities of Xaxim / SC and Pato Branco / PR. The research found that the possibility of accessing and using ICTs represents a need for family farmers in view of the competitiveness of the current market. Despite the importance and significance that ICTs represent to rural areas, the field of study reveals that the conditions of this access have limitations, as the technical system is deficient, which prevents effective access to all the potential that these technologies hold. In some cases, even with a high investment, the farmer cannot access a better service or even use it properly. Finally, it appears that ICTs are inserted in the context of family farming and represent the possibility of network integration and shared construction of knowledge. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Introduction: Considering the importance of the Brazilian journal Interface among the Collective Health journals and as a space of production of knowledge and practices in the area in Latin America, this work aimed at mapping the scientific production related to communication in its various dimensions throughout the magazine's 20 years of existence (1997 to 2017). Methodology: This is a descriptive study of the quantitative and qualitative aspects of production on communication through content analysis. Results: During this period, the journal published 1,343 manuscripts among which 154 were related to communication, representing 11.47% of all papers. Empirical studies were predominant (52.6%), followed by theoretical studies (25.97%). The identified thematic fields were: Media (26.62%); Collective Health (26.62%); Professional education (16.88%); Professional relationship, patient/family/service (14.29%); Information and Communication Technologies (9.09%); and Communication and society (1.3%). Conclusion: This thematic diversity demonstrates the Communication and Health field's wealth and heterogeneity of topics. However, the low number of publications related to communication highlights the lack of scientific production on this matter in Collective Health. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

During the period of social isolation, carried out due to the coronavirus pandemic, the audience of radio stations in Brazil increased. Once again, the means of communication-based on simplicity and low cost showed efficiency as a source of services, information, and entertainment. This article discusses the evolution of radio over a century. From the centerpiece in the homerooms, through mobility and instantaneous, to the arrival of communication in podcasts. To prepare radio professionals, communication schools need to be attentive to technological changes and provide students with theoretical and practical knowledge about the production of audio content. As a methodology, a bibliographic review on the topic was made, in addition to the description of the case study on teaching radio journalism at a Communication Faculty. As main results, we highlight that the radio maintains a vast relevance as a low-cost medium and an extensive audience, being that at this moment the new technologies allow the exploration of new formats. It is also noteworthy that radio is no longer a communication vehicle of regional scope - currently, radio production has a global reach, likewise, it is marked by elements such as interactivity, multilateralism, portability, mobility, and individualized access and consumption.
