Background: The work has been brought to nursing professionals, denoting an increase in illness and consequent decrease in productivity. Objective: This study aims to verify the relationship between productivity and the presence of musculoskeletal symptoms in presenteeism. Methods: This is a cross-sectional and analytical study conducted with 305 Nursing workers from an emergency hospital in the Brazilian Midwest region. For data collection, four self-applied instruments were used, namely: the Sociodemographic Work and Health Conditions Questionnaire (QSCTS), the Stanford Presenteeism Scale (SPS-6), the Work Limitations Questionnaire (WLQ), and the Brazilian version of the Nordic Musculoskeletal Questionnaire (NMQ), Nordic Musculoskeletal Symptom Questionnaire (QNSO). The “presenteeism” and “presenteeism degree” dependent variables were related to the independent variables using the logistic regression model. Results: Presenteeism was identified in 134 (43.8%) workers. Overall productivity loss was 8.8%. Regarding the relationship between presenteeism and the occurrence of musculoskeletal symptoms, workers with problems in the upper back, knees, and neck in the last year were 6.5, 2.7, and 2.2 more likely to be presenteeism, respectively. Conclusion: The study confirmed the relationship between greater productivity losses and the incidence of musculoskeletal symptoms with presenteeism events in the Nursing team.

Introduction: Liposculpture (LS) can complement cervicofacial aging surgery. Modern trends in face sculpting are expanding and adipose tissue transfer can result in optimal esthetic effects with minimally invasive techniques. Facial LS focuses on repositioning adipose tissue and increasing facial transition zones. This is accomplished using internal suspension sutures as well as with autologous fat grafting. Objective: To carry out a concise systematic review of the main clinical considerations and advances in facial and cervical liposculpture as an important aesthetic tool for dental surgeons. Methods: The rules of the Systematic Review-PRISMA Platform were followed. The search was carried out from November 2021 to February 2022 in Scopus, PubMed, Science Direct, Scielo, and Google Scholar databases. The quality of the studies was based on the GRADE instrument and the risk of bias was analyzed according to the Cochrane instrument. Results: Fifty articles were found involving facial liposculpture. A total of 30 articles were fully evaluated and 16 were included and developed in the present study. Considering the Cochrane tool for risk of bias, the overall assessment resulted in 10 studies at high risk of bias and 4 studies that did not meet the GRADE. Most patients who were involved in the studies showed improvements in facial augmentation and contouring. In patients with loss of facial volume, high-density fat transfer with SVF-gel facial injection resulted in significantly higher improvement scores and better patient satisfaction, with an improved/much improved esthetic appearance being observed. As a follow-up analysis of the studies, at an average of six months after completion, most patients were satisfied with the results. All procedures were well tolerated. Conclusion: According to the main clinical studies selected in the present study, cervicofacial liposculpture proved to be advantageous, with safety and efficacy.

O presente artigo tem por objetivo relatar a experiência obtida na Atividade Curricular de extensão (ACE), ação de extensão do curso de Ciência da Computação da Universidade Federal de Alagoas - UFAL Campus Arapiraca, tendo como público alvo alunos do ensino fundamental II da Escola Municipal Antonio Caetano de Souza, situados no município de igaci, pertencente ao interior alagoano.

Objective: to analyze factors associated with presenteeism in nursing workers with sociodemographic variables, health and work conditions, productivity and musculoskeletal symptoms. Methods: this is a cross-sectional, descriptive and analytical study, with 306 nursing workers from a hospital and municipal emergency room in a Brazilian capital. The Stanford Presenteeism Scale, the Work Limitations Questionnaire, the Nordic Musculoskeletal Questionnaire and a demographic questionnaire on nursing professionals’ working conditions and health were used. Bivariate and multivariate analyzes were performed, respecting a significance level of 5%. Results: presenteeism was found in 43.8% of professionals and significant associations with CLT work (p=0.002), workplace - Intensive Care Units (p=0.008), physical exercise twice a week (p=0.008), presence of musculoskeletal symptoms, with low back pain being representative (p=0.001). The productivity loss was 8.8. Conclusions: the study confirms a high rate of presenteeism among nursing workers. RESUMEN Objetivo: analizar factores asociados al presentismo en trabajadores de enfermería con variables sociodemográficas, condiciones de salud y trabajo, productividad y síntomas musculoesqueléticos. Métodos: estudio transversal, descriptivo y analítico, con 306 trabajadores de enfermería de un hospital y urgencias municipales de una capital brasileña. Se utilizo el Stanford Presenteeism Scale, el Work Limitations Questionnaire, el Cuestionario Nórdico Musculoesquelético y un cuestionario demográfico sobre las condiciones laborales y de salud de los profesionales de enfermería. Realizaron análisis bivariados y multivariados, respetando un nivel de significancia del 5%. Resultados: se encontró presentismo en el 43,8% de los profesionales y asociaciones significativas con el régimen de trabajo celetista (p=0,002), lugar de trabajo - Unidades de Cuidados Intensivos (p=0,008), ejercicio físico dos veces por semana (p=0,008), presencia de musculoesquelético síntomas, siendo la lumbalgia representativa (p=0,001). La pérdida de productividad fue de 8.8. Conclusiones: el estudio confirma una alta tasa de presentismo entre los trabajadores de enfermería. RESUMO Objetivo: analisar fatores associados ao presenteísmo em trabalhadores de enfermagem com variáveis sociodemográficas, condições de saúde e trabalho, produtividade e sintomas osteomusculares. Métodos: estudo transversal, descritivo e analítico, com 306 trabalhadores de enfermagem de um hospital e pronto-socorro municipal de uma capital brasileira. Utilizaram-se o Stanford Presenteeism Scale, o Work Limitations Questionnaire, o Questionário Nórdico de Sintomas Osteomusculares e um questionário demográfico de condições de trabalho e saúde dos profissionais de enfermagem. Realizaram análises bivariadas e multivariadas, respeitando um nível de significância de 5%. Resultados: o presenteísmo foi constatado em 43,8% dos profissionais e associações significativas com o regime de trabalho celetista (p=0,002), local de trabalho - Unidades de Terapia Intensiva (p=0,008), prática de exercícios físicos 2 vezes por semana (p=0,008), presença de sintomas osteomusculares, sendo a dor lombar representativa (p=0,001). A perda de produtividade foi de 8,8. Conclus ões : o estudo confirma alto índice de presenteísmo entre trabalhadores de enfermagem.
