The global solutions for the nonlinear differential equation \[ (a(t)u'(t))' + q(t)f(u(t),u'(t)) + g(u(t)) = e(t), \;t \in \mathbb{R}, \] is studied, where \(q,f,g,e\) are continuous and \(a\) is a positive continuously differentiable function. The proofs are based on a Lyapunov-type function and on the comparison method due to \textit{R. Conti} [Boll. Un. Mat. Ital. III, Ser. 11, 510-514 (1956; Zbl 0072.30403)]. Some examples are given.
