OBJECTIVES: to survey the prevalence of human papillomavirus, associated risk factors and genotype distribution in women who were referred to cervical cancer screening when attended in a Family Health Program. METHOD: we conducted a cross-sectional survey, investigating 351 women. Polymerase chain reaction for DNA amplification and restriction fragment length polymorphism analysis were used to detect and typify the papillomavirus. RESULTS: virus infection was detected in 8.8% of the samples. Among the 21 different genotypes identified in this study, 14 were high risk for cervical cancer, and the type 16 was the most prevalent type. The infection was associated with women who had non-stable sexual partners. Low risk types were associated with younger women, while the high risk group was linked to altered cytology. CONCLUSION: in this sample attended a Family Health Program, we found a low rate of papillomavirus infection. Virus frequency was associated to sexual behavior. However, the broad range of genotypes detected deserves attention regarding the vaccine coverage, which includes only HPV prevalent types.

Objective: To validate the content and appearance of an instrument to evaluate knowledge on healthy feeding. Materials and Methods: Methodological study of validation of content, appeareance with 22 judges, and semantic validation with 12 schoolchildren from 4th and 5th grades in primary school education, ranging in age between nine and ten years. The Scale-Level Content Validity Index (S-CVI) ≥ 0.90 and the Item-Level Content Validity Index (I-CVI) ≥ 0.80 were considered approved in the validation. The Binomial test was used through the p value of the proportion (rejecting the H0 if p ≤ 0.80) to select items that should be revised or modified (items validated at significance level ≤ 0.05). Results: The instrument was validated with S-CVI = 0.93 and I-CVI ≥ 0.80 in the 12 items evaluated, with the mean proportion of “non-discordance” among judges = 0.93. The instrument with the suggested modifications was submitted to the target audience and completely approved by all the participating students. Conclusion: This instrument can be used during the health education activities of the School Health Program and the Family Health Program to promote healthy feeding with children between nine and ten years of age.

O artigo apresenta dois casos acerca da atenção aos indivíduos portadores de lesões de pele crônicas realizada em uma UBS integrante do PSF no município de São Paulo. Os casos evidenciam aspectos chave para o fortalecimento da implantação da Estratégia Saúde da Família em grandes cidades, tais como: a superação da polarização generalista versus especialista, o reconhecimento da complexidade tecnológica da atenção básica, a necessidade do vínculo e co-responsabilização dos profissionais com os projetos terapêuticos e a importância da educação permanente em parceria com a universidade.
