Resumo: A COVID-19, doença provocada pelo SARS-CoV-2 (novo coronavírus), surgiu na China em dezembro de 2019 e se espalhou rapidamente por todo o mundo. Diante desse cenário, este estudo objetivou identificar o impacto ou os efeitos da pandemia da COVID-19 na saúde dos adolescentes. Trata-se de uma revisão da literatura do tipo scoping review valendo-se das seguintes bases de dados: Web of Science; CINAHL; PsycINFO; SciELO; PUBCOVID19. O estudo seguiu as etapas propostas pelo Instituto Joanna Briggs para scoping reviews, e a questão que orientou os procedimentos adotados foi construída pelo acrônimo PCC (população; conceito; contexto). Foram incluídos 11 artigos na revisão. Clinicamente, os adolescentes apresentam os mesmos sintomas da COVID-19 que os adultos acometidos pela doença. Verificou-se que a pandemia e as medidas sanitárias adotadas para controlar a contaminação são associadas a problemas de saúde mental em adolescentes. Especificamente, os adolescentes têm vivenciado de forma negativa as medidas de distanciamento social e fechamento das escolas. Essas medidas também podem favorecer a ocorrência de violências ou comportamentos agressivos no contexto doméstico. Serviços de saúde que atendem a população adolescente precisaram reorientar as práticas de cuidado, adotando o modelo virtual em substituição ao cuidado presencial, e mesmo as pesquisas precisaram ser repensadas. Esta scoping review abordou um tema emergente em relação a uma população pouco considerada nos estudos sobre a COVID-19. Os resultados sugerem que a situação de pandemia pode ser considerada um determinante que afeta diferentes dimensões da vida dos adolescentes.

BackgroundHeavy episodic drinking (HED) (consumption of five or more drinks on the same occasion) among adolescents is related to several problems and partaking in sport or physical activities has been suggested as an option to prevent or reduce alcohol consumption among this population. The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between soccer practice and heavy episodic drinking among high school students from Brazil.MethodsData were obtained from a cross-sectional study among a representative sample of public and private high school students from all Brazilian state capitals (N=19,132). Only students aged from 14 to 18 who reported having taken part in soccer practice, other team sports or non-practicing sports in the last month were included. Characteristics of sport practice (frequency and motivation) and HED in the last month (type of drink; where and with whom they drank; frequency of HED) were also considered. Regression models were controlled for sociodemographic variables.ResultsFor all groups studied most of the students reported drinking beer, with friends and at nightclubs or bars. Soccer practice was associated to HED when compared to non-practicing sports and to other team sports. Compared to other team sports, playing soccer for pleasure or profession, but not for keep fit or health reasons, were more associated to HED. Frequency of soccer practice from 1 to 5 days per month and 20 or more days per month, but not from 6 to 19 days per month, were also more associated to HED.ConclusionsThe relationship between soccer and HED appears to be particularly stronger than in other team sports among adolescents in Brazil. Induced sociability of team sports practice cannot be assumed as the main reason for HED among soccer players. Possibly these results reflect the importance of a strong cultural association between soccer and beer in Brazil and these findings should be integrated to future prevention or intervention programs.
