The main objective of this study was to explore the relationship between self-esteem and neuroplasticity, highlighting the importance of these factors in quality of life and human behavior. This study reviewed the relationship between neuroplasticity and self-esteem through a narrative literature review, which gathers, analyses and synthesizes existing knowledge on the subject based on previously published academic and scientific sources. The research, carried out in databases such as BVS, Scielo, CAPES and PubMed (2014-2024), analyzed 6 articles out of 446 selected and included the book Labyrinth of Mirrors (2004). The findings highlight the relevance of neuroplasticity for therapeutic interventions and indicate the need for more studies on the subject. Studies presented here discuss how psychoactive substances help in the process of changes in the brain, influencing people's perception of self-worth. Another factor is the structural change in the brain and the relationship with self-esteem through metacognition mental training therapy. Furthermore, the importance of further research on the subject is highlighted, in order to provide new perspectives for practice within the field of mental health in relation to self-esteem based on neuroscience.

In Occupational Therapy, it is recognized as the main occupation in childhood and a central focus of interventions aimed at promoting child development and occupational performance. However, the increasing use of electronic devices in family routines has transformed childhood experiences and raised concerns about possible impacts on play. This study aimed to investigate, from the perception of parents and guardians, the impacts of the use of screens on the occupational performance of play in early childhood children. This is a qualitative, exploratory study, conducted through semi-structured interviews with six guardians of children enrolled in a daycare center linked to a higher education institution. Content analysis was used for data analysis, from which four thematic axes emerged: family strategies and the management of screen use in daily life, screens as mediation in play: learning and experiences, repercussions of the excessive use of screens on play, and conceptions of play and the transformations of childhood in the digital age. The results highlighted the parents' perspective on the effects of this phenomenon on children's development and play performance, emphasizing the importance of strategies that promote conscious technology use. The study also contributed to the reflection on family guidance aimed at establishing limits for screen time, stressing the value of play and social interactions for child development. By addressing a topic little explored in Occupational Therapy, this research offers relevant insights for understanding the challenges and possibilities that the digital age presents for the children's world.; El juego es una ocupación fundamental para el desarrollo y el aprendizaje de los niños, ya que contribuye a la mejora de las habilidades motoras, cognitivas, emocionales y sociales. En Terapia Ocupacional, es reconocido como la principal ocupación en la infancia y un eje central de las intervenciones dirigidas a promover el desarrollo y el desempeño ocupacional infantil. Sin embargo, el uso creciente de dispositivos electrónicos en la rutina de las familias ha transformado las experiencias de la infancia y ha generado preocupación sobre los posibles impactos en el juego. Este estudio tuvo como objetivo investigar, a partir de la percepción de padres y tutores, los impactos del uso de pantallas en el desempeño ocupacional del juego en niños de la primera infancia. Se trata de una investigación cualitativa de carácter exploratorio, realizada a través de entrevistas semiestructuradas con seis tutores de niños matriculados en una guardería vinculada a una institución de enseñanza superior. Para el análisis de datos, se utilizó el análisis de contenido, del cual surgieron cuatro ejes temáticos: estrategias familiares y el manejo del uso de pantallas en la vida cotidiana, pantallas como mediación en el juego: aprendizajes y experiencias, repercusiones del uso excesivo de pantallas en el juego, y concepciones del juego y transformaciones de la infancia en la era digital. Los resultados evidenciaron la perspectiva de los padres en cuanto a los efectos de este fenómeno en el desarrollo y en el desempeño del juego de los niños, destacando la importancia de estrategias que promuevan el uso consciente de la tecnología. El estudio también contribuyó a la reflexión sobre orientaciones familiares dirigidas a establecer límites para el tiempo de pantalla, enfatizando el valor del juego y de las interacciones sociales para el desarrollo infantil. Al abordar un tema poco explorado en la Terapia Ocupacional, esta investigación ofrece subsidios relevantes para la comprensión de los desafíos y las posibilidades que la era digital presenta para el universo infantil.

Autor(es): Santos, Milena Vieira dos; Santos, Milena Vieira dos; Santos, Milena Vieira dos; Santos, Milena Vieira dos Primeiro Orientador: Barbosa, Felipe Douglas Silva Abstract: Introduction: Population aging is a reality faced worldwide. The aging process, in interaction with intrinsic and extrinsic factors, may predispose individuals to falls, which currently stand as one of the leading causes of death among older adults. In this context, assessment instruments are an essential part of the healthcare process. The literature indicates that there are two types of assessment tools for fall risk: multidimensional instruments and functional mobility assessments. Objective: To identify the assessment instruments used by occupational therapists over the last 10 years to measure fall risk in older adults. Method: This is an integrative literature review. Seven databases were used (EMBASE, PUBMED, Scopus, SciELO, BVS/LILACS, OTseeker, and PEDro) with search strategies based on the association of the descriptors “occupational therapy,” “falls,” “older adults,” “assessment instruments,” “risk factors,” and “aging,” combined with the Boolean operators “AND” and/or “OR.” Inclusion and exclusion criteria were applied, followed by the screening of studies. Results: Seventeen articles were selected, and 25 different assessment instruments were identified. Of these, seventeen were multidimensional evaluations and eight were functional mobility assessments. Additionally, most studies were conducted in developed countries, and evaluations were carried out mainly in the home environment. Conclusion: The literature highlights the need to assess fall risk in older adults through the combination of two distinct instruments that provide a comprehensive assessment.

Among these conditions, cancer stands out as one of the main public health problems, with prostate cancer being the most incident among the elderly male population. Individuals with prostate cancer undergoing treatments such as radical prostatectomy are exposed to risks that can compromise well-being and functionality, and thus, given the aging process and the incidence of chronic diseases, it is up to health professionals to pay attention to the impacts of illness on the functionality of this group. This study aimed to analyze how the functionality of elderly patients with prostate cancer after radical prostatectomy is assessed, identifying the aspects documented in medical records, and the occurrence of referrals to Occupational Therapy. This is a retrospective study based on the analysis of medical records of elderly men with prostate cancer who underwent radical prostatectomy surgery at the Professor Edgard Santos University Hospital. Based on the results obtained, it was observed that the main records focused on urinary incontinence, erectile dysfunction, and sexual intercourse, with no notes on the impact of these complications on the patients' functionality. There was also an absence of records regarding emotional aspects such as anxiety, depression, or low self-esteem, and difficulties in social participation or work, as well as the lack of use of assessment tools and referrals to Occupational Therapy. The inclusion of this profession could favor more comprehensive assessments and interventions, considering the impact of the illness on the functionality of these elderly men. Thus, this study reflects on the importance of broadening the professional perspective on the impacts of illness on functionality.
