The Portuguese Language (LP) is identified as one of the areas in which nursing students in Secondary Technical Professional Education (EPTNM) present difficulties, mainly in grammatical and spelling aspects. Therefore, the present study aims to analyze the knowledge of LP among EPTNM nursing students. This is a cross-sectional, descriptive and observational study, with a quantitative approach, carried out between March and September 2022 with 184 participants from two private educational institutions, located in the Northeast and Southeast Regions of Brazil. Furthermore, grammatical knowledge of the LP standard norm was assessed using the categories phonology, morphology, semantics and syntax, using an online questionnaire. The results showed that, regarding their approach to LP, 65.22% (n= 120) considered themselves to have an aptitude for the discipline. Less than half (42.39%; n= 78) attested that learning in PL was completely effective/sufficient in Basic Education and less than ¼ believed they had fully mastered basic knowledge (17.93%; n= 33). The average correct answers in the assessment of grammatical knowledge of the standard norm were 48.37% for phonology, 50.44% for morphology, 58.91% for syntax and 59.45% for semantics. The main weaknesses identified were: use of plural; accentuation; verbal tense identification; adequacy of whys; connotation/denotation recognition; use of crasis and verbal agreement. It is concluded, therefore, that although the participants claim to have a certain affinity for LP, the existence of gaps in knowledge of the discipline is noticeable, thus highlighting weaknesses in the training process of this professional category of nursing.

La Lengua Portuguesa (LP) es identificada como una de las áreas en las que los estudiantes de enfermería de la Educación Secundaria Técnico Profesional (EPTNM) presentan dificultades, principalmente en aspectos gramaticales y ortográficos. Por lo tanto, el presente estudio tiene como objetivo analizar el conocimiento sobre PL entre estudiantes de enfermería de la EPTNM. Se trata de un estudio transversal, descriptivo y observacional, con enfoque cuantitativo, realizado entre marzo y septiembre de 2022 con 184 participantes de dos instituciones educativas privadas, ubicadas en las regiones Nordeste y Sudeste de Brasil. Además, se evaluó el conocimiento gramatical de la norma estándar LP mediante las categorías fonología, morfología, semántica y sintaxis, mediante un cuestionario virtual. Los resultados mostraron que, en cuanto a su abordaje de la LP, el 65,22% (n= 120) consideraron tener aptitud para la disciplina. Menos de la mitad (42,39%; n= 78) afirmó que el aprendizaje en PL fue completamente efectivo/suficiente en Educación Básica y menos de ¼ creía que había dominado completamente los conocimientos básicos (17,93%; n= 33). El promedio de aciertos en la evaluación del conocimiento gramatical de la norma estándar fue del 48,37% en fonología, del 50,44% en morfología, del 58,91% en sintaxis y del 59,45% en semántica. Las principales debilidades identificadas fueron: uso del plural; acentuación; identificación del tiempo verbal; adecuación de los porqués; reconocimiento de connotación/denotación; Uso de crasis y acuerdo verbal. Se concluye, por lo tanto, que aunque los participantes afirman tener cierta afinidad por la LP, se nota la existencia de lagunas en el conocimiento de la disciplina, destacando debilidades en el proceso de formación de esta categoría profesional de enfermería.

A Língua Portuguesa (LP) é identificada como uma das áreas em que estudantes de enfermagem da Educação Profissional Técnica de Nível Médio (EPTNM) apresentam dificuldades, principalmente, em aspectos gramaticais e ortográficos. Por conseguinte, o presente estudo tem como objetivo analisar o conhecimento de LP entre estudantes da EPTNM em enfermagem. Trata-se de um estudo transversal, descritivo e observacional, com abordagem quantitativa, realizado entre março e setembro de 2022 com 184 participantes de duas instituições de ensino privadas, localizadas nas Regiões Nordeste e Sudeste do Brasil. Ademais, os conhecimentos gramaticais da norma-padrão da LP foram avaliados com base nas categorias fonologia, morfologia, semântica e sintaxe, por meio de questionário on-line. Os resultados evidenciaram que, quanto à aproximação com a LP, 65,22% (n= 120) consideraram possuir aptidão com a disciplina. Menos da metade (42,39%; n= 78) atestou que a aprendizagem em LP foi totalmente eficaz/suficiente na Educação Básica e menos de ¼ acreditou dominar totalmente os conhecimentos básicos (17,93%; n= 33). As médias de respostas corretas na avaliação dos conhecimentos gramaticais da norma-padrão foram de 48,37% para fonologia, 50,44% para morfologia, 58,91% para sintaxe e 59,45% para semântica. As principais fragilidades identificadas foram: uso de plural; acentuação; identificação de tempo verbal; adequação dos porquês; reconhecimento de conotação/denotação; uso da crase e a concordância verbal. Conclui-se, portanto, que embora os participantes afirmem ter certa afinidade pela LP, é perceptível a existência de lacunas nos conhecimentos da disciplina, evidenciando, assim, fragilidades no processo formativo desta categoria profissional da enfermagem.

ABSTRACT Foundation: Skin cancer as a public health problem requires facing it through comprehensive, transversal and sustainable prevention strategies, based on the reality of the individual, family and community; where previous experiences, beliefs and customs are included, taking into account cultural diversity. Objective: Determine the intercultural practice of photoprotection in nursing students at the Chimborazo National University for the skin cancer prevention. Methods: Research with a qualitative-interpretive approach, considering narrative and experiential data supported for the in-depth description of the phenomenon. The studied subjects constituted 12 key informants who met the inclusion criteria. The data were collected through semi-structured interviews and self-reporting. The interviews were transcribed, categorized, interpreted and triangulated. Results: The intercultural practice of photoprotection in nursing students was related to three central categories: culture/health with cultural photoprotection care; environment with worldview and cultural environment; and promotion with learning and/or education needs on photoprotection respectively. Categories that are supported by the rising sun model proposed by Madeleine Leininger. Conclusions: Leininger's theory directs students and health professionals to be aware of cultural attitudes and work in collaboration with users, providing promotion and prevention strategies that are culturally appropriate and effective, where factors such as language, traditions and cultural norms are taking into account.

RESUMEN Fundamento: El cáncer de piel como problema de salud pública exige afrontarlo mediante estrategias integrales, transversales y sostenibles de prevención, basadas en la realidad del individuo, familia y comunidad, donde se incluyan experiencias previas, creencias y costumbres, tomando en cuenta la diversidad cultural. Objetivo: Determinar la práctica intercultural de fotoprotección en estudiantes de la carrera de Enfermería de la Universidad Nacional de Chimborazo para la prevención del cáncer de piel. Métodos: Investigación con enfoque cualitativo - interpretativo, considerando datos narrativos y vivenciales sustentados para la descripción profunda del fenómeno. Los sujetos de estudio constituyeron 12 informantes clave que cumplieron con los criterios de inclusión. Los datos fueron recolectados mediante la entrevista semiestructurada y el autorreportaje. Se realizó la transcripción de las entrevistas, categorización, interpretación y triangulación. Resultados: La práctica intercultural de fotoprotección en estudiantes de enfermería se relacionó con tres categorías centrales: cultura/salud con los cuidados culturales de fotoprotección; entorno con la visión del mundo y entorno cultural; y promoción con las necesidades de aprendizaje y/o educación sobre fotoprotección, respectivamente. Categorías que se respaldan con el modelo del sol naciente propuesto por Madeleine Leininger. Conclusiones: La teoría de Leininger direcciona a los estudiantes y profesionales de la salud para que sean conscientes de las actitudes culturales y trabajen en colaboración con los usuarios, brindando estrategias de promoción y prevención que sean culturalmente apropiadas y efectivas, en donde se consideren factores como el idioma, tradiciones y normas culturales.

Abstract Introduction: Alcohol consumption is a complex social practice that plays a role in building and consolidating friendships, as well as creating gender identities. The latter determines the limits of behaviors and defines what is considered appropriate or inappropriate in our daily routine; therefore, alcohol consumption patterns are not independent of gender. Objective: To identify and describe available evidence on the influence of gender on youth alcohol consumption. Materials and method: A review was conducted under JBI and Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses, Extension for Scoping Reviews (PRISMA-ScR) guidelines. Original full-text articles published between 2018 and 2023 in the VHL, PubMed, EBSCOhost, Web of Sciences, Epistemonikos, ScienceDirect, and ProQuest databases, without language limitations, were analyzed. The search categories were "Alcohol Drinking" AND "Young Adult" AND "Gender Identity" OR "Gender role". Results: A total of 403 records were identified, but only 12 studies were included in the synthesis. The main results of these studies showed that both gender identity and gender roles influence alcohol consumption in young adults. Social gender norms may pressure young women to maintain a physical image and young men to maintain a normative public image. Conclusions: Social gender norms influence alcohol consumption behaviors; therefore, it is necessary to take these gender differences into account in nursing interventions and prevention strategies.

Resumen Introducción: El consumo de alcohol es una práctica social compleja que desempeña un papel en la construcción y consolidación de amistades, así como en la formación de identidades de género. Este último determina los límites de los comportamientos y define lo que se considera apropiado o inapropiado en nuestra rutina diaria; por lo tanto, los patrones de consumo de alcohol no son independientes del género. Objetivo: Identificar y describir la evidencia disponible sobre la influencia del género en el consumo de alcohol de los jóvenes. Materiales y método: Se realizó una revisión bajo las pautas del Instituto Joanna Briggs (JBI) y los lineamientos del Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic reviews and Meta-Analyses, Extension for Scoping Reviews (PRISMA-ScR). Se analizaron artículos originales a texto completo, publicados entre 2018 y 2023 en las bases BVS, PubMed, EBSCOhost, Web of Sciences, Epistemonikos, ScienceDirect, y ProQuest, sin limitación de idioma; las categorías de búsqueda fueron "Alcohol Drinking" AND "Young Adult" AND "Gender Identity" OR "Gender role". Resultados: Se identificaron 403 registros, pero solo se incluyeron 12 estudios en la síntesis. Los resultados principales de estos estudios mostraron que tanto la identidad de género como los roles de género influyen en el consumo de alcohol en adultos jóvenes. Las normas sociales de género pueden presionar a las mujeres jóvenes a mantener una imagen física y a los hombres jóvenes a mantener una imagen pública normativa. Conclusiones: Las normas sociales de género influyen en los comportamientos de consumo de alcohol, por ello, es necesario tener en cuenta estas diferencias de género en las intervenciones de enfermería y estrategias de prevención.

Resumo Introdução: O consumo de bebida alcoólica é uma prática social complexa que desempenha um papel na construção e na consolidação de amizades, bem como na formação de identidades de gênero. Este último determina os limites dos comportamentos e define o que é considerado apropriado ou inapropriado em nossas rotinas diárias; portanto, os padrões de consumo de álcool não são independentes do gênero. Objetivo: Identificar e descrever as evidências disponíveis sobre a influência do gênero no consumo de álcool pelos jovens. Materiais e métodos: Foi realizada uma revisão de acordo com as diretrizes do Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) e dos lineamentos do Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses, Extension for Scoping Reviews (PRISMA-ScR). Foram analisados artigos originais de texto completo, publicados entre 2018 e 2023 nos bancos de dados BVS, PubMed, EBSCOhost, Web of Sciences, Epistemonikos, ScienceDirect e ProQuest, sem limitação de idioma; as categorias de pesquisa foram "alcohol drinking" AND "young adult" AND "gender identity" OR "gender role". Resultados: Foram identificados 403 registros, mas apenas 12 estudos foram incluídos na síntese. Os principais resultados desses estudos mostraram que tanto a identidade de gênero quanto as funções de gênero influenciam o consumo de bebida alcoólica por jovens adultos. As normas sociais de gênero podem pressionar as mulheres jovens a manter uma imagem física e os homens jovens a manter uma imagem pública normativa. Conclusões: As normas sociais de gênero influenciam os comportamentos de consumo de álcool; portanto, essas diferenças de gênero precisam ser levadas em conta nas intervenções de enfermagem e nas estratégias de prevenção.

ABSTRACT The Ministry of Public Health and Social Welfare began the vaccination plan against SARS COV 2, prioritizing in the first stage the most vulnerable groups, which corresponded, among others, to health personnel; In this sense, the Expanded Immunization Program (PAI) has begun the process of selection and training of nursing personnel in the technical and operational guidelines of the vaccination plan, information system and surveillance of events supposedly attributed to vaccination and immunization. Objective: Determine the incidence of adverse reactions to COVID 19 vaccines (CoronaVac®, Astrazeneca® and Covaxin®) in health personnel from the public and private sectors of the XIV Canindeyú Health Region. Methodology: Quantitative, descriptive cross-sectional study. Results: Among the most frequent mild effects were pain at the application site, being 63.6% for the Covaxin® vaccine and 62.8% for the Astrazeneca® vaccine. In relation to the general effects, dyspepsia was the most observed reaction (86.6% for the Covaxin® vaccine and 83.3% for the CoronaVac® vaccine), and lack of energy and motivation (Astrazeneca® vaccine with 34.9%). Discussion: The study clearly shows that there are differences in the observation of mild effects caused by different vaccines. On this occasion, three vaccines have been observed, highlighting that these mild effects are common, frequent and generally temporary in vaccines.

Abstract Introduction: The World Health Organization [WHO] (2012) identifies dementia as a growing public health problem, with the family being the first line of care for people with this pathology. The Dynamic Model of Family Assessment and Intervention (MDAIF) constitutes a theoretical and operational reference, guiding the nursing process, which intends to respond to the needs of nurses in caring for families, in the development of family-centered practices. (Figueiredo, 2009, 2012). Objective: Analyze the impact of the care provided by the specialist nurse in family health nursing, with the family as the unit of care. Methods: Case study, descriptive and exploratory, in the context of UCSP, with the MDAIF being the theoretical and operational reference. As data collection, in depth interviews were carried out. All ethical principles were taken into account. Results: The following nursing diagnoses in need of intervention were identified: residential building not safe, marital satisfaction not maintained, role of care provider not adequate, dysfunctional family process. Implementation of interventions arising from the expression of emotions, role saturation and coping using narrative therapy. Conclusion: This study made it possible to identify the needs of the family and the interventions that promote change. We verified the effectiveness of the implemented interventions. We recognize the MDAIF as an essential tool for Nurses in assessing and intervening in the family as a unit of care.

RESUMEN Introducción: A nivel mundial, la cobertura de vacunación contra el COVID-19, así como contra la influenza es baja tanto en la población general como en los profesionales de la salud a pesar de que la vacuna es gratuita y obligatoria en el personal sanitario. Objetivo: Describir la cobertura de vacunación contra el COVID -19, y la influenza en personal de salud y administrativo de un hospital de referencia del Ministerio de Salud Pública y Bienestar Social en el periodo 2021-2022. Metodología: Estudio observacional descriptivo de corte trasverso. Se hizo la revisión de los registros del personal sanitario y administrativo del centro vacunatorio del Hospital Nacional de Itauguá de la campaña vacunal contra el COVID-19 y de anti-influenza en el periodo 2021- 2022. Resultados: De los 3.586 funcionarios, 999 (27,9 %) eran médicos, 1494 (41,7 %) personal de enfermería, 366 (10,2 %) otra categoría de personal sanitario, y 727 (20,3 %) personal administrativo. En forma global, el 86,5 % de los funcionarios recibió por lo menos las dos dosis que constituyen el esquema primario y el 73 % la dosis de refuerzo. El 2,1 % del personal no recibió ninguna dosis de vacuna anti covid-19, la cifra fue mayor en el personal administrativo (4,8 %). La cobertura de vacunación contra la influenza fue de 20 % en el 2021 y 25 % en el 2022. Discusión: Si bien cobertura de vacunación anti-COVID-19 fue comparable a otros países, la vacunación contra la influenza fue muy baja. Es urgente implementar estrategias dirigidas a aumentar la percepción de riesgo y aceptabilidad de las vacunas obligatorias para el personal sanitario.

ABSTRACT Introduction: Worldwide, vaccination coverage against COVID-19, as well as against influenza, is low both in the general population and in health professionals, despite the fact that the vaccine is free and mandatory for health personnel. Objective: To describe the COVID -19 and influenza vaccination coverage in health and administrative personnel of a reference hospital of the Ministry of Public Health and Social Welfare in the period 2021-2022. Methods: Cross-sectional descriptive observational study. Charts of the health and administrative personnel of the vaccination center of the Itauguá National Hospital of the COVID-19 and influenza vaccination campaign in the period 2021-2022 were reviewed. Results: Of the 3,586 personnel, 999 (27.9%) were medical personnel, 1,494 (41.7%) nursing personnel, 366 (10.2%) other category of health personnel, and 727 (20.3%) administrative personnel. Overall, 86.5% of the employees received at least the two doses that constitute the primary schedule and 73% the booster dose; 2.1% of the staff did not receive any dose of the anti COVID-19 vaccine, which was higher in the administrative staff (4.8%). Influenza vaccination coverage was 20% in 2021 and 25% in 2022. Discussion: Even though the vaccination coverage of anti-COVID-19 was comparable to other countries, vaccination anti-influenza was very low. It is urgent to implement strategies aimed at increasing the perception of risk and acceptability of mandatory vaccines for health personnel.

Given South Africa's historical and contemporary realities of both internal mobility and migration from other countries, this paper argues that engaging with space, place, and migration is pivotal to understanding and strengthening public health-care provision in South Africa. This paper views place as emerging from and relating to space. A mutually reinforcing and reciprocal relationship between people and place over time shapes health-care delivery and health outcomes in South Africa. Therefore, this paper argues that engaging with a place-based approach is required to understand the local context in which diverse groups are situated. There is, however, a lacuna in studies situating South(ern) African public health-care challenges within such a place-based approach. This paper presents findings from a mixed-methods study that was designed to fill this gap. The research team conducted fieldwork in six health-care facilities across two provinces in South Africa - four in Gauteng and two in the Vhembe district of Limpopo province - representing urban, peri-urban, and rural settings. The study included exploratory in-depth interviews with 77 health-care providers (including nursing and administrative staff), a survey conducted with 229 health-care users, and site visits. The findings show how diverse spaces shape and are shaped by different migrant profiles, producing diverse places, which in turn present particular demands to the public-health system. It is crucial to understand the pathways, behaviors, and meanings associated with such mobility if we are to strengthen the provision of healthcare services in South Africa.

RESUMEN Enfermería corresponde al grupo ocupacional más numeroso del sector de la salud, representando aproximadamente el 59 % de las profesiones sanitarias, lo que proporciona grandes beneficios para la salud mundial; sin embargo, el panorama para enfermería no está exento de dificultades, pues corresponde a un estamento que no desarrolla su quehacer en ambientes óptimos, muchas veces tiene que desarrollarse con escaso apoyo de los gobiernos y no tiene el reconocimiento que se merece. Esta reflexión responde al objetivo de relevar la importancia de enfermería en los sistemas de salud, y a su vez, exponer los principales desafíos pendientes para el fortalecimiento de la salud pública. Se han descrito copiosos beneficios asociados a la atención de enfermería, contribuyendo al logro de los objetivos de desarrollo sostenible, en los que enfermería desempeña un rol protagónico en el proceso; sin embargo, las políticas de los países deben desarrollar estrategias para promover su desarrollo, como lo es la enfermería de práctica avanzada; por otro lado, las enfermeras líderes deben concentrar los esfuerzos en estimular a los gobiernos y autoridades a trabajar de manera mancomunada en las mejoras de las condiciones laborales de enfermería. Los autores de nuestro tiempo destacan la necesidad de un trabajo colaborativo interdisciplinario para el logro de las necesidades de la población.

ABSTRACT Nursing is the largest occupational group in the health sector, representing approximately 59 % of the health professions, which provides great benefits for global health, however, the outlook for nursing is not without difficulties, as it is a profession that does not develop its work in optimal environments, often must develop with little support from governments and does not have the recognition it deserves. The present reflection responds to the objective of highlighting the importance of nursing in health systems, and at the same time, to expose the main pending challenges for the strengthening of public health. Copious benefits associated with nursing care have been described, contributing to the achievement of the sustainable development objectives, where nursing plays a leading role in the process, however, the policies of the countries should develop strategies to promote its development, such as advanced practice nursing, on the other hand, nurse leaders should concentrate their efforts to encourage governments and authorities to work together to improve the working conditions of nurses; the present authors highlight the need for interdisciplinary collaborative work to achieve the needs of the population.

BACKGROUND. The Catholic University of Health and Allied Health Sciences, Kilimanjaro Christian Medical University College and Muhimbili University of Health and Allied Sciences teamed up to address gaps in the training curricula for medical doctors and nurses with the aim of developing harmonised curricular templates that would be comprehensive and suit national objectives. OBJECTIVES. To share experiences and lessons learned in engaging stakeholders using social media as an additional method to collect information on curricular gaps and ideas to develop harmonised medical and nursing curricula. METHODS. Pictures, newsprint extracts, and videos of face-to-face events in the curriculum development process and project and a curriculum advert were posted on Facebook, Twitter and YouTube and used to engage stakeholders, including regulatory bodies, health professional councils, graduates, students, practitioners, health training institutions, private and public employers, internship supervisors, faculty and the public. Reactions, comments and post insights from stakeholder postings, in both Swahili and English, were analysed manually and categorised into four types of messages: congratulatory, comments on the process and expected outcomes, curricular gaps, and faculty development needs to implement new curricula. RESULTS. A total of 69 290 stakeholders were engaged via Facebook and 229 via Twitter. A total of 13 553 (19.6%) Facebook and 179 (78.2%) Twitter comments were directly related to gaps in current curricula and graduate competencies. Other inputs received through social media were on faculty development needs to implement harmonised curricula and the project in general. CONCLUSION. This was the first attempt to engage curriculum stakeholders using social media for the development of harmonised curricula in Tanzania. The impact of social media in providing relevant inputs for curriculum development was significant. Use of social media, with multiple language options, is an economical and efficient way to reach a large number of stakeholders for curriculum quality improvement.

Abstract Introduction: Financial toxicity can increase healthcare costs, in addition to negatively impacting the therapeutic adherence and healthrelated quality of life of cancer patients within the public healthcare system. Objective: To correlate financial toxicity with the adults living with cancer health-related quality of life during the COVID-19 pandemic. Materials and Methods: This is an observational, cross-sectional, correlational study conducted with 179 patients receiving care from the Unified Health System in a capital city in southern Brazil. Data collection was performed from September 2021 to December 2022, using questionnaires containing sociodemographic and clinical data, and the Comprehensive Score for Financial Toxicity and the Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy-General. The correlation between financial toxicity and health-related quality of life was assessed using Spearman’s correlation coefficient at a 5 % significance level. Results: The correlation between financial toxicity and health-related quality of life was 0.41 (p-value < 0.001). The financial toxicity and health-related quality of life scores were 20.1/44 and 73.3/108, respectively. Conclusion: This study has found that the lower the financial toxicity, the better the patients’ health-related quality of life. In this sense, recognizing the presence of financial toxicity in the treatment course could help improve adherence to treatment and health-related quality of life.

RESUMEN Introducción: El incremento del consumo de sustancias psicoactivas (SPA), alcohol y cigarrillo en población joven se ha convertido en un problema de salud pública. La identificación de los factores que aumentan o disminuyen el riesgo de la exposición a estas sustancias y la relación que puede haber entre ellas resulta fundamental para la planificación de estrategias con enfoque de riesgo, razón por la cual se planteó el presente estudio. El objetivo es establecer el perfil de consumo de SPA, alcohol y cigarrillo y los factores asociados con dicho consumo en estudiantes del programa de Enfermería de una institución de educación superior. Métodos: Estudio cuantitativo, observacional y analítico de tipo corte transversal. Resultados: Se incluyó a 310 estudiantes de los semestres I a IX de un programa de Enfermería de una institución privada de educación superior de Bogotá. La prevalencia de consumo de SPA en el último ario fue del 2,96% (IC95%, 1,36-5,54); la marihuana es la sustancia de mayor consumo (55,55%). Las prevalencias de consumo de alcohol y cigarrillo durante los últimos 12 meses se estimaron en el 86,64% (IC95%, 83,24-91,0) y el 12,16% (IC95%, 8,4315,88) respectivamente. Se encontró una asociación estadísticamente significativa entre los consumos: tomar alcohol se asoció con el consumo de cigarrillo (OR = 3,22; p = 0,006) y fumar se asoció con el consumo de SPA (OR = 15,4; p <0,001). Conclusiones: En esta población universitaria, el consumo de alcohol aumenta la posibilidad de consumo de cigarrillo, y este a su vez aumenta la posibilidad del consumo de SPA.

ABSTRACT Background: The increase in the use of psychoactive substances, alcohol and cigarettes in young people has become a public health problem. The identification of factors that increase or reduce the risk of exposure to these substances and the possible relationship between them is essential for planning strategies with a risk approach, hence the reason for this study. The objective was to establish the profile of use of psychoactive substances, alcohol and cigarettes and the factors associated with such use in nursing students of a higher education institution. Methods: Quantitative, observational, analytical cross-sectional study. Results: We included 310 students from 1st to 9th semester of a Nursing programme from a prívate higher education institution in Bogotá. The prevalence of psychoactive substance use in the last year was 2.96% (95%CI, 1.36-5.54), with marijuana being the substance most used (55.55%). The prevalence of alcohol and cigarette use during the last 12 months was estimated at 86.64% (95%CI, 83.24-91.0) and 12.16% (95%CI, 8.43-15.88) respectively. A statistically significant association was found between the use of these substances: alcohol use was associated with cigarette use (OR = 3.22; P = 0.006) and smoking was associated with psychoactive substance use (OR = 15.4; P < 0.001). Conclusions: Alcohol use increases the likelihood of smoking cigarettes, and this in turn increases the likelihood of psychoactive substance use, in this university population.

Evaluate with lexicographic analysis and meta-analysis the existing scientific evidence, in quantitative studies, on the relationship between academic self-efficacy and competency-based education in the Health Sciences. Searches were conducted in four databases: Public Medline or Publisher Medline National Library of Medicine (PubMed); Education Resources Information Center (ERIC); American Psychological Association PsycNet Advanced Search (APA PsycNet) and the Virtual Health Library (VHL) covering the Scientific Electronic Library Online (SCIELO) and the Latin American and Caribbean Literature on Health Sciences (LILACS). The risk of bias was assessed by two Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) instruments, specific for assessment of cross-sectional analytical (total = 6) or quasi-experimental (total = 13) studies. Nineteen articles were included, with the agreement of selection by the judges considered perfect by Cohen's Kappa (k = 0.837, p &lt; 0.001). The total selection determined 3938 participants, predominantly undergraduate students of nursing courses 50%, physiotherapy 19.2%, medicine 15.4% and others 15.4%. The meta-analysis was carried out with studies (total = 9) that presented continuous type statistical technique for comparison, presence of mean and standard deviation and organized into three different groups, being, "intervention versus control" (n=3), "intervention versus traditional" (n=2) and the "pre and post-intervention assessment group" (n=4). Considering only the “pre and post-intervention assessment group”, a large effect size was found on students' self-efficacy after the competency-based interventions. The observational cross-sectional studies confirmed adequate measurement of academic self-efficacy in the proposed activities after the application and validation of the scales.
