- Effectiveness of a learning pathway on food and nutrition in amyotrophic lateral sclerosisPublication . Coutinho, Karla Mônica Dantas; Rabelo, Humberto; Fernandes, Felipe; Coutinho, Karilany Dantas; Valentim, Ricardo Alexsandro de Medeiros; Dias, Aline de Pinho; Valentim, Janaína Luana Rodrigues da Silva; Batista, Natalia Araújo do Nascimento; Romão, Manoel Honorio; Cunha, Priscila Sanara da; Oliveira, Aliete Cunha; Henriques, Susana; Melo, Luciana Protásio de; Vale, Sancha Helena de Lima; Lais, Lucia Leite; Lima, Kenio Costa deBackground/Objectives: Health education plays a vital role in training health professionals and caregivers, supporting both prevention and the promotion of self-care. In this context, technology serves as a valuable ally by enabling continuous and flexible learning. Among the various domains of health education, nutrition stands out as a key element in the management of Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS), helping to prevent malnutrition and enhance patient well-being. Accordingly, this study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of the teaching and learning processes within a learning pathway focused on food and nutrition in the context of ALS. Methods: This study adopted a longitudinal, quantitative design. The learning pathway, titled “Food and Nutrition in ALS,” consisted of four self-paced and self-instructional Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs), offered through the Virtual Learning Environment of the Brazilian Health System (AVASUS). Participants included health professionals, caregivers, and patients from all five regions of Brazil. Participants had the autonomy to complete the courses in any order, with no prerequisites for enrollment. Results: Out of 14,263 participants enrolled nationwide, 182 were included in this study after signing the Informed Consent Form. Of these, 142 (78%) completed at least one course and participated in the educational intervention. A significant increase in knowledge was observed, with mean pre-test scores rising from 7.3 (SD = 1.8) to 9.6 (SD = 0.9) on the post-test across all courses (p < 0.001). Conclusions: The self-instructional, technology-mediated continuing education model proved effective in improving participants’ knowledge about nutrition in ALS. Future studies should explore knowledge retention, behavior change, and the impact of such interventions on clinical outcomes, especially in multidisciplinary care settings.
- International scientific cooperation in public health: a performance measurement framework based on the “Syphilis No!” Project in BrazilPublication . Lima, Thaisa Gois Farias de Moura Santos; Coutinho, Karilany Dantas; Batista, Natalia Araújo do Nascimento; Galvão, Ruana Evangelista; Araújo, Bruna Fernandes de; Martins, Iasmin Moreira Alves; Alves, Luca Pareja Credidio Freire; Romão, Manoel H.; Lacerda, Juciano de Sousa; Oliveira, Carlos Alberto Pereira de; Dias, Aline de Pinho; Cunha, Priscila Sanara da; Oliveira, Aliete Cunha; Cordeiro, António Manuel Rochette; Muñoz Gallego, Almudena; Ramos, Natália; Oliveira, Carla Padrel de; Campos, Rodrigo Pires de; Valentim, Ricardo Alexsandro de Medeiros; MihajloIn this article, we aim to propose indicators to evaluate the performance of international scientific cooperation in public health, based on the operation experience in Brazil’s “Syphilis No!” Project. This is an action research project, based upon Kaplan and Norton’s Balanced Scorecard Method, developed in five stages: (i) Reorganization of the indicators, (ii) validation of the new indicators, (iii) construction of the dimensions of the indicators, (iv) data collection for the indicators, (v) development of the framework for the “Syphilis No!” Project. The metrics and 34 indicators are presented and grouped into four dimensions: technical-scientific, investment, products, and impact. The cooperation that emerged from the project has built an international research network that has the potential to transcend syphilis research. The framework demonstrated that international scientific cooperations, focused on research and product development, have contributed to the promotion of public health policies and have enabled the exchange of knowledge, techniques, experiences, and technologies, fundamental to the international scientific cooperation of Brazilian universities. This contribution will have implications for studies in the field of international relations in health and education.
