In this issue, the journal Cadernos de Saúde UniBrasil reaffirms its commitment to the dissemination of scientific knowledge and to the strengthening of academic production in the field of health sciences. The articles presented reflect the diversity of themes, social relevance, and methodological rigor that characterize research developed within the health sciences, contributing significantly to the qualification of professional practice and to scientific advancement.

The published articles address contemporary and essential issues in healthcare, with particular emphasis on integrative reviews that synthesize current scientific evidence and support evidence-based decision-making. The study “Nursing care in the prevention of pressure injuries related to surgical positioning: an integrative review” discusses essential care practices for patient safety in the perioperative context, emphasizing the role of nursing in preventing adverse events. The article “Study on the prevalence of paracetamol use among the community of a university center in Curitiba, Paraná” analyzes the consumption of one of the most widely used analgesics, offering important reflections on the rational use of medications in the academic environment.

This issue also includes investigations focused on the interface between physical and mental health. The article “The influence of the intestinal microbiota on the regulation of neurotransmitters and its impact on depression: an integrative literature review” presents evidence highlighting the complexity of the gut–brain axis and its implications for understanding and managing depressive disorders. Complementing this multidisciplinary approach, the study “The role of physiotherapy in the postoperative period of mastectomy: an integrative literature review” emphasizes the importance of physiotherapeutic intervention in functional rehabilitation, prevention of complications, and improvement of quality of life for patients undergoing this procedure.

Thus, this edition of Cadernos de Saúde UniBrasil brings together studies that dialogue with one another and reinforce the importance of scientific research as an indispensable tool for improving healthcare, academic training, and ethical, qualified professional practice. We wish our readers an enriching and reflective reading experience that may inspire new investigations and strengthen the commitment to science and health promotion.

We are pleased to announce the release of a new edition of the UniBrasil Health Notebooks journal—an academic space dedicated to scientific dissemination and the strengthening of interdisciplinary practices in the health field.

This edition brings together articles that explore timely and relevant topics focused on comprehensive human care across various contexts and stages of life. The discussions include the role of psychologists in hospital settings, strategies for elderly care, clinical practices grounded in logotherapy, support for individuals with visual impairments, and physiotherapeutic approaches for rare health conditions.

The collection of articles makes a meaningful contribution to academic and professional dialogue, bridging theory and practice across different health disciplines.

We invite the academic community and health professionals to access the new edition and engage with content that reaffirms UniBrasil’s commitment to high-quality and socially responsible knowledge production.

The new edition of Journal Cadernos de Saúde Unibrasil features articles from various health fields, such as psychology, nursing, physiotherapy, and nutrition. This approach fosters the integration of knowledge across disciplines, promotes the exchange of experiences, and encourages interdisciplinary approaches. Furthermore, it strengthens science by bringing together diverse perspectives, contributing to advancements that benefit patients, researchers, and society as a whole.
