Introduction: Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a chronic disease of the nervous system, characterized by degeneration of neurons in the mesencephalic substantia nigra, leading to a clinical state of rest tremor, bradykinesia, muscular rigidity and postural instability. Physical therapy seeks to act by slowing the progression of the disease and when done in a group and maintain and / or improving the motor skills of the individual, can provide psychosocial benefi ts. Objective: examine the infl uence of the physical therapy group in balance, functional mobility and quality of life of individuals with PD. Method: participated in this study 04 subjects were female, mean age 67.75 (± 9.5) years, with medical diagnosis of PD, stages 1 to 3 of the Hoehn & Yahr. Before starting treatment, subjects underwent an assessment of the balance (BBS), functional mobility (TUG) and the quality of life (PDQ-39).The treatment was performed in groups, for a period of 10 weeks, lasting 60 minutes each session twice a week, totaling 20 sessions of physiotherapy. Upon completion of the treatment period the subjects were again assessed for balance, functional mobility and quality of life. The data were analyzed using the Student t-test, with signifi cance level of 5% (p ≤ 0.05). Results: statistical analysis showed signifi cant differences in three variables: equilibrium (p = 0.010), functional mobility (p = 0.029) and quality of life (p = 0.004), after physiotherapy intervention. Conclusion: physiotherapy treatment was group provides better balance, functional mobility and quality of life of patients with PD.

With the growing aging population will be an increase of chronic degenerative diseases such as dementia. Among the various forms of dementia Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is the most prevalent. In individuals with AD, there is a loss in the processing of sensory information, which may aggravate the imbalance and falls. As the disease progresses, the individual lose the ability to function independently, becoming dependent on a caregiver. This study aimed to analyze the balance of the mental state and quality of life of individuals with AD, to determine whether a correlation exists between these variables and analyze the influence on quality of life of caregivers. This study was conducted with thirty individuals (82.86 ± 9.07 years) with AD, both sexes, and their caregivers. The evaluation of the balance was accomplished by the Scale of Functional Balance of Berg (EEFB), the cognitive function for the Mini-exam of the Mental State (MEEM), and the quality of life (QV) for the scale “life Quality - Disease of Alzheimer “ (QdV - DA) that is composed for three versions: patient, caregiver and family The data were analyzed by coefficient of correlation of Spearman. The balance analyses (EEFB=32,17 ± 13,26 points) shows increased in the risk of falls in the elderly and negative correlation (R = - 0,55, p <0,01) with age and good correlation with MEEM (R=0,63 p <0,01). Already in relation of the MEEM and QV, can observed correlation between the familiar version and the MEEM ((R=0,40 p=0,02). In Relation the versions of the QV questionnaire, found significant correlation among: QdV-DA patient X caregiver (R=0,41 p=0,02), QdV-DA patient X family (R=0,40 p=0,03). In this way we can conclude that the individuals with DA, appraised in this study, present a deficit in the balance, so much related with the age as with to the cognitive decline, and the greater the cognitive decline worse the impression of caring about the QOL of their family, and still, that the worsening in the quality of the patient’s life contemplates in a worsening in the quality of your caregiver’s life.

This research analyzes the origin of Welfare State, from the Report by William Beveridge. At the end of Second World War, the concern about citizenship rescue spread the idea of Social Welfare State. The British influence, also represented by the Beveridge Report, is of great importance in this process. Thus, analyzing the Beveridge Plan, which proposed a set of reforms within the social security system, along with its contributions to the emergence of British Welfare State, is crucial to a more complete historical parameter on the subject of the Protector State. The goal of this study is to clarify the influence of the Beveridge Report in the practical organization of the Welfare system in England

Nowadays is more than proven by several studies in the area that flexibility is one of the first physical abilities to be impaired with advancing age. Around 40 years old, there is an acceleration in the loss of flexibility that is heavily influenced by other factors as like standard level of physical activity and health, and this could eventually lead to a difficulty in performing activities of daily basis. Active Break was created with the intention to minimize the negative impacts from the sedentary life and health of workers and encourage healthier habits in employees through stretching exercises. A lot is said about the loss of flexibility with advancing age and various ways to minimize these losses. It is necessary for us as physical educators, using techniques learned through years of learning to prove the validity of a physical activity program in improving worker health. Therefore the aim of the study was to investigate the influence of the Active Break in different flexibility joints of the participants of physical activity program offered by the NAFES laboratory and compare whether there are differences in flexibility between workers who participate in classes with those who are not. The study included 15 workers of Institute of Geosciences and Exact Sciences (IGCE) UNESP - Rio Claro. Where were two weekly gymnastics sessions lasting 15 minutes each, Within this environment were divided two groups, one who carried out the activities and the other served as control group that participated only in the evaluations. Three assessments were conducted, one before the start of a study, another 2 months later and the last one at the end of the study. On these assessments were collected measures of the angles of joints using a Fleximeter and the greatest distance achieved by the sit and reach test. The results showed no significant difference...(Complete abstract click electronic access below)

O homem modifica o ambiente ao seu redor gerando alterações “nos elementos que se encontram em contato direto com suas atividades, como a cobertura vegetal, as formas do relevo e a rede hidrográfica” (CASSETI, 1994). Assim, destacam-se as áreas submetidas ao represamento, cujos reflexos incidem diretamente sobre as formas do relevo. Desta forma, a geomorfologia atua como uma ciência de análise das alterações ocorridas na rede de drenagem e nas feições geomorfológicas, e a cartografia geomorfológica antecipa-se como instrumento da geomorfologia. O objetivo principal da pesquisa foi identificar e analisar as alterações morfohidrográficas e morfométricas provocadas pela construção do reservatório de Barra Bonita no curso final do Rio Piracicaba. A orientação metodológica vincula-se à Teoria Geral dos Sistemas Aplicada à Geografia e à análise da dinâmica de sistemas morfohidrográficos. Para as técnicas, foram confeccionados mapas geomorfológicos e de uso e ocupação das terras dos anos de 1962 (ano anterior à construção da barragem) e 2007 (selecionado como ponto de partida para a análise das alterações morfohidrográficas). Em 1962 existiam barras de meandro, canais e meandros abandonados, terraços fluviais, diques marginais, lagos e lagos de meandros. Em 2007 estes são comprometidos devido à mudança de nível de base local, fato demonstrado pelo desaparecimento de meandros e canais abandonados nas planícies aluviais, fragmentação de terraços fluviais, mudança de foz pelos canais tributários do rio principal e surgimento de novas lagoas. Para o uso, no ano de 1962 existiam grandes áreas de vegetação de “campo úmido”, atrelado à feição geomorfológica “planície aluvial”, que se encontrou alagada no ano de 2007. Foram também calculados os índices de sinuosidade, densidade de meandramento, número de meandros, área... (Resumo completo, clicar acesso eletrônico abaixo)

A incidência de doenças cardiovasculares tem se constituído na maior causa de morbimortalidade em todo mundo, especialmente após os 50 anos de idade, e têm sido associadas à presença de polimorfismos em alguns genes, especialmente o gene da eNOS. Apesar das mulheres compartilharem com os homens os diversos fatores de risco para o desenvolvimento das doenças cardiovasculares, entre elas hipertensão arterial e dislipidemia, estudos epidemiológicos mostram que as mesmas, antes da menopausa, apresentam menor risco cardiovascular quando comparadas aos homens. Entretanto, após o período da menopausa há um aumento significativo na incidência de hipertensão arterial e suas complicações. Este fato parece estar relacionado a uma possível ação protetora exercida pelos hormônios sexuais femininos, sobretudo os estrogênios que apresentam queda abrupta no período da menopausa. O óxido nítrico (NO), produzido pelas células endoteliais através da enzima eNOS, desempenha importante papel no sistema cardiovascular, participando na regulação do fluxo sanguíneo, do remodelamento vascular e na atividade plaquetária. Assim, estudos envolvendo o gene responsável pela síntese da enzima eNOS, tem sido foco de várias pesquisas na tentativa de avaliar se a presença dos polimorfismos poderia predispor os indivíduos a maior incidência de doenças cardiovasculares. O polimorfismo do gene da eNOS na posição G894T/Glu298Asp localizado no éxon 7, implica na alteração da sequência protéica, tornando a proteína mais suscetível à clivagem, tendo consequências funcionais como a redução do NO demonstrando assim sua provável contribuição para a disfunção endotelial e consequente aumento da pressão arterial. Com relação ao Íntron 4 caracterizado por um Número Variável de Repetições em Tandem... (Resumo completo, clicar acesso eletrônico abaixo)

In Brazil, rates of urban solid waste generation increase proportionally more than the annual growing of the population. The government, from its federal authority to the municipal spheres, faces increasing challenges for Urban and Environmental management regarding to solid waste in general and, in particular, municipal solid waste. Financial problems added to public health problems that worsen with the serious environmental impacts generated every year. In August 2010 Brazil the PNRS (National Policy on Solid Waste) was approved and sanctioned in which represented a true watershed in the country as a legal framework extremely ambitious and visionary. This work presents the successes and challenges that the municipality of Sorocaba/SP is facing after more than three years of PNRS sanctioned to conduct an Urban and Environmental management suited to the new legal bases towards the subject of solid waste. The results show a large gap between the content proposed by the law and the technical, financial and temporal reality to practical implementation by the municipal government. New legislation and federal incentives, consortiums among the cities, flexible deadlines and environmental education at all levels are certainly some proposals to catalyze processes that aim to solve and overcome the challenges of solid waste

Physical activity is associated with lower cardiovascular disease risk factors, being cardiorespiratory fitness a major component of physical activity health related. Body fatness and sarcopenia are related to sedentary lifestyle leading to proinflammatory stress and lower cadiorespiratory capacity. This study aimed correlates C-reactive protein with cardiorespiratory fitness, analyzing the influences of anthropometrics variables and metabolic syndrome (MS) presence. the cross-sectional retrospective study included baseline data of 194 adults (62 male and 132 female), 53,74 ± 8,77 years, clinically and ethically selected for a lifestyle modification program. Total cholesterol (TC) and cholesterol lipoprotein fractions, triglycerides (TG) and glucose was dosed by dry chemistry (Vitros® system, Johnson & Johnson). Blood leukocytes was quantified by automatic cell counter (Coulter ABX®, Horiba). LDL-cholesterol was obtained by Friedwald formula. Serum ultrasensitive C-reactive protein (US-CRP) was accessed by the immunochemoluminescence method (Immulite 2000®, DPC Medlab). Weight, height, body mass index (BMI) and waist circumference (WC) were measured. Muscular mass and fat mass were obtained by bioelectrical impedance analysis (impedancemeter Quantum BIA-101Q®, Clinton Township). Arterial blood pressure was checked by auscultatory method and cardiorespiratory fitness was determined by ergoespirometric test (Balke protocol). The metabolic syndrome was diagnosed according NCEP – ATP III (2001), following recommendations of American Diabetes Association (2004). Pearson’s correlation crude and adjusted for confounders variables with p<0,05. The prevalence of MS was 30.4%. Crude correlation shows hsCRP was correlated inverse and significantly with VO2max (r= -0.21; p=-0.003) ...(Complete abstract click electronic access below)
