Abstract: Immigration around the world is an important discussion to study in the context of Public Health. To Brazil, one of the biggest challenges is verbal communication to Haitian and Ghanaian immigrants, as most of them don’t speak the language of the immigrant region. Realizing the difficulty in communication and guidance within Public Health, a trilingual information poster was created to serve as a technology for access to these users and to facilitate the work of health professionals in prenatal care. The poster was produced through the performance of the Multiprofessional Residency in Public Health, of the Postgraduate Program in Public Health (PPGSCOL) present at the University of Santa Catarina (UNESC). Keywords: Public Health, Immigrants, Equity in Access to Health Services, Prenatal care.

Morbid obesity is considered a serious public health problem generating high human and financial costs.  The situation that promotes the highest morbidity after bariatric surgery is the development of cholelithiasis, especially in the first 6 months.  Given this process, ursodeoxycholic acid is increasingly being used in the postoperative period due to a reduction in the rate of cholelithiasis.  However, there are discussions of which prophylactic method to use.  In this context, a systematic review was performed to evaluate the efficacy and use of ursodeoxycholic acid in preventing cholelithiasis after bariatric surgery.  After methodological analysis, 6 articles were selected.  These studies suggest that administration of 500 to 1000 mg of UDCA for a period of 6 months, depending on the technique used, is significantly associated with decreased incidence of cholelithiasis, with good adherence, cost-effectiveness and few side effects. Keywords: Ursodeoxycholic Acid, Cholelithiasis, Bariatric Surgery.

Congenital malformations constitute alterations in the structure, physiological functioning or metabolism of cells, tissues and / or organs, causing morphological, biochemical or behavioral defects produced during pregnancy.  Approximately 20% of pregnancies with malformed fetuses end in spontaneous abortion and the remaining 80% will be born dead or alive, resulting in 3% to 5% of newborns with congenital anomalies.  This study discusses aspects related to anencephaly and other critical issues surrounding this context.  It was concluded that the right to life is fundamental, constituting a prerequisite for the existence and exercise of all other rights.  Even so, there still seems to be bias in the legislation that enables parents of babies with this malformation to have legal recourse to abortion.  Keywords: Malformations, Anencephaly, Right to life.

In recent years, the continued popularity of digital resources in education and society has been emphasized, which has led to the gradual operation of physical class due to teachers and students, the more I can negotiate the learning space outside the physical space. In this regard, it is cautious to explore the evolutionary relationships between digital technologies and the learning space. In general, the real challenge of Andragogy and adult education is to combine these aspects with the aim of finding a solution to the problem. As a social, economic and cultural structure of a country or social change and a new demand, I wish to criticize existing practices, to explore and try new things that have become a hallmark, especially of continuing education. And basically. In the context of irrational education, collaborative attitudes show that a certain communication method completely ignores the expression of dominance in all its forms. Keywords: Andragogy, continuing education, digital resources, learning.

Today, the cooperative relationship between non-profit organizations and business organizations is closely related to the knowledge transfer process, which results in better performance of non-profit organizations, although this positive dynamic depends on the ability of non-profit organizations to generate income. Despite being considered an important instrument for peaceful coexistence and the stability of the international system, International Development Cooperation has not managed to achieve its main objective, which is economic and social development to reduce global poverty. Through international cooperation, it seeks to provide socially responsible ideas and services aimed at solving certain contemporary problems. However, this often presents a twofold difficulty. Keywords: non-profit organizations, business organizations, international cooperation. 

Psychotherapy and positive relationships efficiently build resilience in the face of adversity. In this sense, different patterns of resilience appear in different patterns of behavior and personality, depending on the prevailing environmental conditions. However, the greater the environmental adversity, the less resistant factors appear. Patients tend to turn to psychotherapy when recovery strategies are not sustainable. Understanding the clinical benefit of a client's positive characteristics, such as resilience, can help provide a balanced perspective on psychotherapy in which the physician works to reduce stress and distress and promote positive traits. Overall, patients tended to have marked improvement from baseline in recovery, so there was a significant positive association between changes in flexibility and changes in self-efficacy between individuals. Keywords: psychotherapy, positive relationships, resilience.
