The construction of Workers' Health (WH) intersectoriality, while fundamental, has been a challenge for this field of knowledge and practice. This paper aims to present and discuss how intersectorality is addressed in WH public policies, in what contexts it is used, how it is defined, and the guidelines for its implementation. This is qualitative documentary research that analyzed documents enacted between 1986 and 2015, accessed through the databases of the Ministries of Health, Labor and Social Security, and the websites of FUNDACENTRO and the National Association of Occupational Medicine (ANAMT). There is clear leadership of the health sector in the documents proposing the construction of intersectoriality. Terms such as "integrated actions", "articulation", "dialogue", and "integration", and finally, "intersectoriality" were used sometimes as synonyms or conceptual advances, and generic, polysemic, and supposedly consensual expressions. Despite the developing concept of intersectoriality in the policies of this field and the growing participation of the different sectors in this construction, few clear propositions about the effectiveness of this practice among managers and workers underlying the field are observed.Individuals suffering from chronic kidney disease (CKD) are often on multiple medications, which exposes them to drug-related problems (DRP). There are no available tools in Brazil to assess the pharmacotherapy and management of DRPs systematically in this population. The scope of this study was to perform a cross-cultural adaptation of PAIR criteria (Pharmacotherapy Assessment in Chronic Renal Disease) to Brazilian Portuguese. PAIR criteria consist of 50 DRP clinically significant items for CKD. The process of cross-cultural adaptation involved translation, synthesis, back-translation, and an analysis by an expert committee as well as a pre-test of the first draft document. A review committee consisting of 2 pharmacists and 2 nephrologists analyzed the semantic, linguistic, experiential, and conceptual equivalence between the original and translated versions. All items that obtained a score below 80% were reviewed. Word adjustments were made, as well as the exclusion of 6 DRP due to non-applicability to the Brazilian context. Thus, the final version of PAIR defined as "Avaliação da farmacoterapia na doença renal crônica" was translated and adapted into the Brazilian Portuguese language.The scope of this article is to evaluate the Worker Food Program from the viewpoint of managers, nutritionists and the food offered in industries of the Metropolitan Region of Recife. It consisted of a cross-sectional study. A structured questionnaire was filled out by 40 managers and 40 nutritionists regarding their knowledge about the program and compliance with the tasks required by it. The nutritional quality of the menus was also evaluated. Among the managers and nutritionists, 22.5% and 72.5%, respectively, did not know about the enrolment in the program and the nutritional requirements involved. Most nutritionists and managers related the program to a labor law requirement. None of the respondents knew about the mandatory food and nutritional education actions, even though 55% of the services involved educational actions and 25% performed nutritional assessment of the workers. It was found that, despite the daily supply of natural beverages, fruit and leafy vegetables, there is also a daily supply of various ultra-processed products, especially sweet foods and artificial beverages. The study revealed the lack of knowledge of managers and nutritionists about the objectives of the program as well as its incipient execution.The scope of this study was to assess the evolution of costs for purchasing the basic food basket associated with the purchasing power of the minimum wage, besides measuring the availability per capita in Brazilian households of the items comprised in the food basket. Additionally, adequacy of the nutritional composition and diet quality based on daily consumption of food basket items was evaluated. The results obtained indicate the existence of periods of price increase for the acquisition of the food basket items, as well as the inability of the minimum wage to meet the cost of such food supplies. It was verified that the diets based on the consumption of food basket items have a higher calorie and sodium content than the recommendations for adults, as well as insufficient amounts of calcium, potassium, and vitamin A. The evaluation of the quality of the diets indicated low amounts of fruit, vegetables, cereals in the diet consisting of the items of the food baskets, with excess calories from fats and added sugar being verified. In view of such evidence, a review of the composition of the food baskets is recommended in order to meet basic nutritional requirements in food for the Brazilian population.The aim of this article is to verify the association between nutritional status and physical activity with the perception of body image satisfaction in a sample of adolescents from Curitiba, State of Paraná. The sample consisted of 844 adolescents of 11 to 17 years of age. Erastin order The level of physical activity was evaluated by the Physical Activity Questionnaire for Adolescents. Body image perception was assessed by the Silhouette Shape Scale and the Body Shape Questionnaire. The association between nutritional status and level of physical activity with satisfaction with body image was performed through multinomial logistic regression to obtain the odds ratio with a 95% confidence interval and p less then 0.05. Overweight/obesity was positively associated with moderate and severe body image dissatisfaction (BID) among girls (OR 6.20; 95%CI 2.62 - 14.66 and OR 6.20; 95%CI 4.10 - 9.36) and boys (OR 1.95; 95%CI 1.06 - 3.59 e OR 3.91; 95%CI 2.57 - 5.95) and with the desire to decrease the silhouette for boys and girls (OR 4.86; 95%CI 3.37 - 7.00 and OR 6.46; 95%CI 4.12 - 10.14). The level of physical activity was not associated with BID. Adolescents who are overweight and obese are more likely to admit to BID. Physical activity was not related to BID.
