A dança é uma das formas de expressão artística mais antiga da história da humanidade. O movimento da dança em foco no presente estudo foi a pirouette do ballet clássico. Tal movimento é caracterizado por um ou mais giros em torno do seu próprio eixo, executado sobre uma perna seja em meia ponta ou ponta completa, enquanto a outra está flexionada, com o pé abaixo do joelho da perna de apoio. O presente estudo consistiu em examinar o perfil cinético do movimento pirouette de bailarinas experientes e não experientes no Ballet Clássico. A hipótese é de que as variáveis relativas à força para produzir o giro influencie na realização do pirouette. As participantes do estudo foram convidadas a realizar o pirouette sobre uma plataforma de força. Os resultados do presente estudo demonstraram que as bailarinas experientes aplicam maior força para iniciar o giro em relação às participantes não experientes. Em conjunto, os resultados do presente estudo sugerem que a força vertical aplicada para iniciar o giro, a qual denominamos impulso inicial, parece ser determinante para a boa performance no movimento pirouette da bailarina. Os resultados do presente estudo oferece uma importante contribuição aos técnicos e professores de dança de forma a valorizar questões de controle motor e postural no processo ensino-aprendizagem do pirouette

Low back pain is considered a major cause of lameness and performance decay, but identify the location of the lesions and quantify the intensity of pain is difficult because often the most obvious clinical sign, in some cases, is not the pain itself, but, low athletic performance. The diagnosis and treatment of this disease are associated with a high cost and have a strong impact on the equine industry, since it results in direct economic losses. The diagnosis of low back pain is made through physical examination and additional tests, including radiography, ultrasound, thermography and blockades. Major injuries causing back pain in horses is the contact or overlap of the spinous processes, supraspinous desmitis, osteoarthritis of the articular processes, vertebral body lesions and myositis. Therapeutic measures used in the treatment of these diseases are systemic inflammatory steroid, local infiltration, acupuncture, chiropractic, physical therapy, changes in training and surgeries.

Twelve athletes (13,9±1,1 years, 169,0±6,0 cm and 59,5±13,5 kg ofbody weight) were under went to anthropometric and body compositionassessments, and maximum concentric strength of lower limbs. The jumptest in the water was done by ‘boost’ and scaled to jump height. The resultsof strength (Leg Press 45: 157,1±43,3 kg; Leg Extension: 72,1±12,9 kg),anthropometry (circumferences of arm: 26,0±3,3 cm; thigh: 50,5±7,7 cm;shoulder: 96,0±8,0 cm, and diameter of elbow: 4,7±0,5 cm; wrist: 3,2±0,3cm; knee: 7,9±0,6 cm; bi-acromial: 37,5±3,8 cm; and bi-iliac: 25,4±4,3cm), BMI (20,7±4,0 kg/m²), and body composition (fat: 8,5±4,3%) were notrelated to the values of vertical jump performance (47,80 ? 4,35 cm), as didshowed for body height (0,595). Thus, athletes height was one able to influencethe jump performance by modifying it self, perhaps by maturity.

Kassabach-Merritt syndrome is a combination of capillary hemangioma and thrombocytopenia that predisposes to bleeding with petechiae, ecchymosis and spontaneous bruising. Treatment is generally started with corticosteroids, interferon alpha or chemotherapy. We present the case of a child (aged 1 year and 9 months) with a giant hemangioma, from the root of the thigh to the knee, and thrombocytopenia. Treatment was started with corticosteroids, without improvement, and then intra-tumor and cutaneous bleeding appeared spontaneously. The patient’s clinical condition precluded prescription of vincristine and interferon and emergency tumor resection was conducted because of extreme thrombocytopenia and bleeding. The child then began to develop sepsis with hypotension and ischemia of remnant tissues. This case presented a therapeutic challenge, which is the subject of this article.
