RESUMEN
Objetivo: identificar a taxa de absenteísmo da equipe de enfermagem, sua etiologia e os fatores associados. Método: estudo descritivo, analítico e retrospectivo, desenvolvido em um hospital público e terciário brasileiro, entre janeiro e março de 2021. Para a coleta de dados, foi utilizado o banco de dados do Departamento de Recursos Humanos da Instituição, referente ao ano de 2019. Na análise estatística utilizou-se testes indutivos, com nível de significância de 5% (p≤0,05). Protocolo de pesquisa aprovado pelo Comitê de Ética em Pesquisa. Resultados: foram analisados dados de 95 profissionais. O percentual médio de absenteísmo foi de 10,56%, sendo mais prevalente entre os técnicos/auxiliares de enfermagem (7,56%) em comparação aos enfermeiros (3,00%), e significativamente maior entre os profissionais atuantes no período diurno (p=0,004). Conclusão: a taxa de absenteísmo foi alta e superior ao estipulado pela legislação vigente, sendo motivada principalmente por licenças médicas, prevalente entre técnicos/auxiliares de enfermagem e associada a atuação no período diurno.
Objective: to identify the absenteeism rate of the nursing team, its etiology and associated factors. Method: descriptive, analytical and retrospective study, developed in a Brazilian public tertiary hospital, between January and March 2021. For data collection, the institution's Human Resources Department database was used, referring to the year 2019. In the statistical analysis, inductive tests were used, with a significance level of 5% (p≤0.05). Research protocol approved by the Research Ethics Committee. Results: data from 95 professionals were analyzed. The average percentage of absenteeism was 10.56%, being more prevalent among nursing technicians/assistants (7.56%) compared to nurses (3.00%), and significantly higher among professionals working during the day (p=0.004). Conclusion: the absenteeism rate was high and higher than stipulated by current legislation, being mainly motivated by sick leave, prevalent among nursing technicians/assistants and associated with daytime work.

Conclusión: la tasa de ausentismo fue alta y superior a lo estipulado por la legislación vigente, siendo motivada principalmente por la baja por enfermedad, frecuente entre los técnicos/auxiliares de enfermería y asociada al trabajo en el periodo diurno.
RESUMEN
AIM: To study the association between atrophic gastritis (AG) and esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) in a Latin-America population. METHODS: A case-control study was performed at two reference Brazilian hospitals including patients diagnosed with advanced ESCC and dyspeptic patients who had been subjected to upper gastrointestinal endoscopy, with biopsies of the gastric antrum and body. All cases with ESCC were reviewed by a single pathologist, who applied standard criteria for the diagnosis of mucosal atrophy, intestinal metaplasia, and dysplasia, all classified as AG. The data on the patients' age, sex, smoking status, and alcohol consumption were collected from clinical records, and any missing information was completed by telephone interview. The association between AG and ESCC was assessed by means of univariate and multiple conditional logistic regressions. RESULTS: Most patients were male, and the median age was 59 years (range: 37-79 years) in both the ESCC and control groups. Univariate analysis showed that an intake of ethanol greater than 32 g/d was an independent risk factor that increased the odds of ESCC 7.57 times (P = 0.014); upon multiple analysis, alcohol intake of ethanol greater than 32 g/d exhibited a risk of 4.54 (P = 0.081), as adjusted for AG and smoking. Smoking was shown to be an independent risk factor that increased the odds of ESCC 14.55 times (P = 0.011) for individuals who smoked 0 to 51 packs/year and 21.40 times (P = 0.006) for those who smoked more than 51 packs/year. Upon multiple analyses, those who smoked up to 51 packs/year exhibited a risk of 7.85 (P = 0.058), and those who smoked more than 51 packs/ year had a risk 11.57 times higher (P = 0.04), as adjusted for AG and alcohol consumption. AG proved to be a risk factor that increased the odds of ESCC 5.33 times (95%CI: 1.55-18.30, P = 0.008) according to the results of univariate conditional logistic regression. CONCLUSION: There was an association by univariate conditional logistic regression between AG and ECSS in this sample of Latin-American population.
