On Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) the degeneration of motor neurons causes, due to the interference of nerve impulses transmission, the functionality commitment and consequently the individuals’ quality of life (QF). Although, on the COVID-19 pandemic context cause by social isolation, there was the reinforcement of these functional disorders raising to detrimental psychological conditions like anxiety associated with QF. To assess if the social isolation due to COVID-19, affected the axiety and QF levels on patients with ALS. Eighteen individuals with average age of 46,72 ± 14,09 years old, and average diagnosis time of ALS of 2,8 ±1,75 years, were assessed using the Mini Mental State Exam (MMSE), the Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis Assessment Questionnaire (ALSAQ-40/BR), Hamilton Anxiety Rating Scale (HAM-A) and clinic-epidemiological questionnaires. Descriptive analysis, Shapiro Wilk test and Pearson’s correlation were used. On MMSE the individuals got average score of 27,33±1,90. It was observed in ALSAQ-40/BR decreased QF (70,03 ± 23,17) and on HAM-A scale 50% of the individuals showed anxiety. However, there was no significant correlation between HAM-A and ALSAQ40/BR (p=0,07). On this study, both questionnaires indicated a decreasing in QF and anxiety presence on the individual with ALS during the COVID-19 pandemic period, even though no correlation among the analyzed objects was found. It is indicated the monitoring during interval periods to define the damages from social isolation and by attendance therapy restriction as physical therapy to preserve the QF.

(Centro Universitário do Estado do Pará, 2021) Almeida, Layane Lima de; Araújo, Victória Nascimento Martins; Azevedo, Marineuza Jardim; Duarte, Luiz Augusto Costa; http://lattes.cnpq.br/0906595552451677; http://lattes.cnpq.br/5929748804326599
As a result of the entrance process to higher education, pre-university students have developed problems such as stress and anxiety, thus resulting in decreased sleep quality and their learning performance. Auriculotherapy is a technique with practical application, low cost, safe, non-invasive and with greater patient adherence to the proposed treatment, mainly due to its immediate and prolonged effect, and can be used as a treatment for anxiety, due to its potential for promote physical and mental well-being and consequently promote better quality of life. To establish na auriculotherapy care protocol for anxiety control in preuniversity entrance exam students. The protocol was elaborated from nine scientific articles, having as descriptors "anxiety", "auriculotherapy", "protocol" and "student", being found through literary researches in the electronic databases of PUBMED, SCIELO, LILACS and Academic Google. Taking into account scientific studies, the proposed protocol aims at the application of Shenmen ear points, heart, kidney, liver, lung, brainstem, neurasthenia and anxiety, with 20 appointments, twice a week. Auriculotherapy has been gaining expression in the face of the growing production of scientific evidence that demonstrates the effectiveness of auriculotherapy for various health conditions. WHO recognizes Auriculotherapy as a microacupuncture system that can have a positive impact on the regulation of whole body function, and its therapeutic effect has been investigated in a wide range of health problems in eastern and western countries. Auricular stimulation with seeds, being safer and non-invasive, is widespread worldwide, with surprising results, from 59% to 78%, in reducing anxiety symptoms. This variation in anxiety reduction is largely due to the points that will be stimulated or even the amount of care and its frequency itself. Thus, the protocol idealized by this study was based on the fusion of ear points, respecting the energy functions linked to the Zang-Fu theory and its benefits in combating emotional disorders. It was observed that auriculotherapy is an effective method to control anxiety and consequently to improve quality of life, however, there is a lack of research on auriculotherapy to control anxiety in pre-university students, therefore it is important to promote a greater production of scientific articles aimed at this audience.
