A doença falciforme - DF é uma hemoglobinopatia que afeta a cadeia da hemoglobina presente nas hemácias. Os indivíduos portadores apresentam a forma homozigótica da cadeia S da hemoglobina denominada de HbSS. A DF é considerada um problema de saúde pública no Brasil por ser uma doença frequente, grave e associada à elevada taxa de letalidade, especialmente, entre os jovens durante a idade escolar. Este trabalho teve como objetivo avaliar o impacto da DF em crianças e adolescentes de 5 a 18 anos acompanhados no Hemocentro de Cuiabá-MT, no período escolar. Para a execução deste estudo foram selecionados 55 pacientes de ambos os sexos, diagnosticados com Anemia Falciforme - AF e usuários de hidroxiureia por um período mínimo de seis meses. A qualidade de vida relacionada à saúde e a aprendizagem escolar dos pacientes foi avaliada através da aplicação do questionário “PedsQL”, específico para pacientes na faixa etária pediátrica. Os resultados demonstraram uma piora na qualidade de vida de pacientes com AF associada à demora do início do tratamento, principalmente, quando o mesmo se inicia após os oito anos de idade. A qualidade de vida é maior em pacientes mais novos (5 a 7 anos) por não apresentarem, ainda, os efeitos mais danosos da doença. O domínio escolar apresentou o pior score de qualidade de vida, demonstrando que quanto mais tarde a criança inicia o tratamento, pior será seu escore de qualidade de vida e maiores serão as dificuldades de aprendizagem, devido aos comprometimentos relacionados à doença. Este estudo mostrou que a AF afeta o desempenho de criança em período escolar e permitiu uma melhor compreensão de variáveis preditoras para elaboração de práticas pedagógicas socioeducacionais especializadas e adaptadas para doentes com AF.Palavras-chave: Anemia Falciforme.

The research consisted of 311 participants in total, 135 females and 176 males. Independent sample t-test and one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) were performed to determine whether the quality of university life varied according to the variables of students. A statistically significant difference was found in social opportunities dimension in favor of males, in participation in decisions dimension in favor of females, and in student-student communication dimension in favor of males, and in identity, social opportunities and future dimensions according to year of study (p < .05).

The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic and related restrictive measures have impacted on leisure activities globally; South Korea is no exception. In this cross-sectional study we identified the need to increase leisure opportunities during social distancing and respond to changes in leisure activities post-COVID-19. The leisure attitude, stress-related growth, and quality of life of 260 participants were examined via an online survey. Data were analyzed through structural equation modeling. Results show that during social distancing, leisure attitude was positively associated with stress-related growth, leisure attitude was not significantly associated with quality of life, and stress-related growth was positively associated with quality of life. From a long-term perspective, as leisure activities can improve stress-related growth and quality of life, education and related discussions must continue to ensure that people hold a positive attitude toward leisure participation.
