During the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, the COVIDiSTRESS Consortium launched an open-access global survey to understand and improve individuals’ experiences related to the crisis. A year later, we extended this line of research by launching a new survey to address the dynamic landscape of the pandemic. This survey was released with the goal of addressing diversity, equity, and inclusion by working with over 150 researchers across the globe who collected data in 48 languages and dialects across 137 countries. The resulting cleaned dataset described here includes 15,740 of over 20,000 responses. The dataset allows cross-cultural study of psychological wellbeing and behaviours a year into the pandemic. It includes measures of stress, resilience, vaccine attitudes, trust in government and scientists, compliance, and information acquisition and misperceptions regarding COVID-19. Open-access raw and cleaned datasets with computed scores are available. Just as our initial COVIDiSTRESS dataset has facilitated government policy decisions regarding health crises, this dataset can be used by researchers and policy makers to inform research, decisions, and policy. © 2022, The Author(s).

To analyze the university students’ lifestyle of different shifts. It was instigated 400 students of a university in Paranavaí, 287 of Business and 113 of Pedagogy. All of them answered the questionnaire Fantastic Lifestyle, composed by 25 questions, subdivided into 9 dimensions: Family and friends (F); Physical activity (PA); Nutrition (N); Tobacco and drugs (TD); Alcohol (Al); Safety, stress and sexual activity (S); Type of behavior (TC); Introspection (I) and Career (C). Each answer assigns a value from 0 to 4 points, totaling a maximum score of 100 (the higher the score, the better the lifestyle). On average, the Business students obtained 65.0 ± 10.4 pts, Pedagogy students reached 67.6 ± 10.9 pts. In the comparison between students of different shifts it was observed that there was no statistical difference (P> 0.05) among students of Pedagogy (Afternoon, n = 56, EVF = 67.8 ± 10.7 pts and Night n=57, EVF 67,4±11,2pts), whereas Business students showed some difference (P=0,01), the morning shift (68.1 ± 9.3) presented better results than the night one (64.1 ± 10.6pts). Finally, it was identified that 35% of Business students reached the minimum score (70 points) considered healthier and of lower risk, with 28 % morning students and 71% night. As for Pedagogy students, 45% obtained EVF considered adequate, being 43% of afternoon and 56% of night. College students' lifestyle is predominantly inadequate; night students’ lifestyle is worse than day students and this is most evident in male students.

Made available in DSpace on 2021-06-25T10:12:36Z (GMT). No. of bitstreams: 0 Previous issue date: 2020-01-01 The Nutrition and Dietetics Service (NDS) is the sector of a hospital responsible for developing activities related to food and nutrition for patients, companions and employees. Care for food safety in the hospital environment is of fundamental importance, since the food prepared in this location will be directed, in most cases, to immunocompromised patients. The objective of the present study was to evaluate the hygienic-sanitary conditions of surfaces, equipment, utensils and hands of food handlers of an NDS of a public hospital in the Midwest of the State of Sao Paulo. By means of a superficial swab, samples were collected from 101 surfaces, equipment and utensils and from 46 hands of food handlers. The samples were subjected to counts of mesophilic, coliform and Escherichia coli and the positive coagulase Staphylococcus count was also performed in the hands of food handlers. It was observed that 51.4% of the surfaces, equipment, utensils and surfaces were out of the standard for mesophiles, 50.4% for coliforms and 3.9% for E. coli. Of the 46 sampled hands, 23.9% showed non-standard results for mesophiles, 32.6% for coliforms and only 2.1% for E. coli and coagulase positive Staphylococcus. The results showed errors in the process of cleaning surfaces, equipment, utensils and hands, which can directly influence the quality and safety of the food offered to patients, companions and collaborators.
