Abstract

STD/Aids control represents a challenge to humanity due to its biopychosocial impact. In view of this reality, an exploratory, descriptive and documental study was conducted with the purpose to characterize the scientific production on STD published in 14 Brazilian nursing journals from 1933 to 1999. The sample consisted of 73 publications of which 55 concerned HIV/Aids and 18 were related to other STD. The data showed that most of the authors were faculty nurses from São Paulo Estate who have privileged HIV/Aids in detriment of other STD and that their scientific production was scarse and discontinuos.
