O objetivo deste artigo é verificar a prevalência de desnutrição em adolescentes de duas cidades brasileiras e analisar possíveis associações com a prática de atividades físicas durante horários de lazer. Participaram do estudo 2782 adolescentes de 10 a 17 anos, de escolas da rede pública e privada de uma cidade do sudeste e uma da região sul. O peso e a estatura foram avaliados por balança digital e estadiômetro, respectivamente. A prática de atividade física considerou as variáveis: prática de esportes; andar (tratada como caminhada); andar de bicicleta e assistir televisão. O teste qui-quadrado e a regressão de Poisson foram empregados. A prevalência de desnutrição foi de 13,0%, sendo maior no sexo feminino (14,5%) quando comparado ao masculino (11,9%) [p = 0,047]. A prática esportiva foi associada com menor ocorrência do desfecho (p = 0,001). Foi significativamente menor a prevalência de desnutrição entre aqueles que mantinham frequência moderada de caminhadas em comparação àqueles que apresentavam baixa frequência dessa prática. A prevalência de desnutrição no presente estudo pode ser considerada elevada. Além disso, a condição nutricional inadequada nos adolescentes aparentemente está associada a comportamentos de risco à saúde, caso da prática insuficiente de atividade física durante horários de lazer.

The goal of this research was to characterize written stories, produced by students, without complaint of language development (oral and written), from pictographic support. In a specific way, it has been searched, in those stories, elements that could grant coherence, applying that performance with the participants’ profile variables. It was characterized as a descriptive-exploratory study, held at a rural municipal school in the State of Parana. Twenty-one (21) students of both genders and ages between seven and nine years old have participated in this study. Data collection consisted of two narratives requests: one oral, after being released, to the child, four pictures placed in sequence to form a story, and one written. This writing production had been taken for the analysis. The results have indicated that most children (71.42%) managed to produce coherent stories, seventeen (80%) in story 1 and thirteen (61%) in story 2. As to the relation of that coherence with the students’ profile in story 1, there has been no statistically significant association, for none of the analyzed variables (gender, age and education), whereas there has been a statistically significant association with gender in story 2 (p-value 0.027). It is considered that the use of the pictographic support in developing stories have been confirmed as a facilitating strategy for its construction, for it has enabled the production of coherent narratives.

Introduction: The pulmonary rehabilitation (PR) is composed of aerobic and resisted exercises that improve the functional capacity to the exercise, life quality and decrease respiratory symptoms in subjects with chronic pulmonary disease. Objective: Assess the effects of a combined PR program in the cardiorespiratory function and peripheral muscle strength in subjects with chronic pulmonary disease. Method: Patients with chronic pulmonary disease were submitted to the PR program, which was developed on 24 sessions of 60 minutes (three times per week). The program was composed of aerobic exercises (two times per week) and resisted exercises (once a week). Before and after the PR the patients were submitted to manovacuometry in order to measure the maximum inspiratory pressure (MIP) and the maximum expiratory pressure (MEP), ventilometry, peek expiratory flow (PEF), six minute walking test (6MWT) and one maximum repetition (1RM). The data are presented in absolute frequency, percentage and mean±standard deviation. The t Student test was used to compare data before and after the PR and the ANOVA test to compare before, after and predicted distances in the 6MWT (p<0.05). Results: Seven patients were part of this study, 85.70% of women, 71.40% with pulmonary emphysema diagnosis. The mean age was 69.43±5.59 years old, the height was 1.61±0.07 m, the mean weight was 66.20±8.40 kg and the body mass index mean was 25.50±2.48 kg/m². From the variables assessed, the MEP increased from 79.71±13.69 to 84.42±12.83 cmH2O (p=0,03), the PEF increase from 255.71±66.3 to 320.00±93.63 l/min (p=0,03) and the distance in the 6MWT from 415.28±47.90 to 483,79±79,77 m (p=0,02). The load in the 1RM test in the reverse peck deck exercise (before - - 17.10±8.10kg; after – 210.40±9.00kg), knee in leg extension machine (before – 17.10±9.50kg; after – 26.40±13.10kg) and hip extensors (right before – 48.60±22.10kg; after – 62.90±19.30kg; and left before – 46.40±20.10kg; after – 62.10±18.20kg) increased significantly (p<0,05). Conclusion: After the PR program there was improvement in the expiratory muscular strength, in the lower limbs strength and in the functional capacity. Besides that, there was a reduction in the airflow obstruction of the subjects with chronic pulmonary disease.

Introduction: Given the repercussion of the important role of physical activity in the prevention of sickness and non-communicable diseases / loss, many works have been done in order to understand the association of sociodemographic characteristics with sedentarism. The elements which influence the physical activity practice are countless. Besides the intrapersonal element, environment elements (social environment, cultural environment, public politics, information environment, natural environment etc.) are also important in the life style. Yet, the way that the person understands the environment can be considered in the planning of the strategies to change the sedentary behavior. Objective: Verify the association of the environment perception with the practice of physical activity (FA) at leisure time in adults living in Rio Claro – SP. Methodology: The sample consists of 470 adults, all residente in rio Claro-SP, aged ≥ 18 years old. The chosen participants answered to the questionnaires: Neighborhood Environmental Walkability Scale (NEWS), International Physical Activity (IPAQ) and to a specific questionnaire with personal data (age, sex, educational level, economical level, weight, height and marital status). The analysis of the connection between the variables was done through the Logistic Regression with Confidence Interval of 95%, using the software SPSS 17.0. Those who reached the recommendation of 10 minutes or more of physical activity in leisure time for week were classified as active, and those who did not reach the recommendation were classified as underactive. Results: The proportion of subjects who practiced physical activity in leisure time was 38,7%, and the male subjects, as well as those classified as better social level showed higher chances to practice at least 10 minutes weekly of physical activity during leisure. Still, walking the dog, soccer fields and gardens near the house (less than 10 walking minutes), were...

Mouse embryo production by superstimulation is a multifactorial process. To minimize the number of sacrificed animals and to maximize the results of the superstimulatory treatment, it should be possible to predict the risk of do not get embryos from such a treated animal. This work aimed to evaluate if the variables - hormone concentration and the timing of its administration, the copulatory plug presence and individual male used to mating – could be predictive factors on the mouse embryo production. Females were distributed in four groups (cross-over design) related to scheduled superstimulation treatment (1300h or 1700h) and eCG/hCG administered concentration (5 or 10IU). After the hCG treatment, females were put to mate. On the next morning it was verified the presence of a copulatory plug (D0.5). Embryo recovery was performed from D2.5 to D4.5 by flushing the oviducts and uterine horns. Total structures recovered (TSR) and the viable embryos (VE) were classified by its morphology. Viability rate (VR) was calculated with VE in relation to TSR (x100). Group comparison was analyzed with 5% of significance. There were no significant differences among groups, even when only main effects were analyzed (hormone concentration and timing of its administration). There was significant difference in VR from animals with or without plug and from the worst and best males used. It was concluded that neither the hormone concentration nor timing of its administration - or their association – was significant as predictive factors for the embryo production. However, the plug presence was related to higher VR.

A obesidade é um tema recorrente na literatura científica da atualidade. Isso se deve ao aumento exponencial de sua prevalência em todas as camadas da sociedade. A popularidade deste tema fez também com que assuntos associados a ele emergissem e ganhassem maior notabilidade em publicações da área da saúde. Com objetivo de avaliar o que vem sendo estudado no campo da obesidade e nutrição, esta revisão realiza um apanhado de todos os artigos publicados dentro destes temas em algumas das principais revistas científicas brasileiras nos últimos dois anos. Dentre os subtemas selecionados neste trabalho, aqueles relacionados à obesidade infantil chamaram atenção por aparecerem com maior frequência. Estes foram subdivididos em: prevalência, influências intrauterinas e do aleitamento que podem levar ao desenvolvimento desta condição, consequências na qualidade de vida, sistema cardiovascular e metabolismo e possíveis estratégias de prevenção. Além disso, foram explorados temas relacionados à obesidade em adultos como seus fatores de risco e novas estratégias de prevenção, com atenção especial aos muitos estudos avaliando diferentes aspectos relacionados à cirurgia bariátrica. Finalmente, abordou-se o tema da desnutrição e o impacto da deficiência de micronutrientes específicos como selênio, vitamina D e vitamina B12. A partir dos resultados, tornou-se possível concluir a real importância da obesidade e da nutrição na manutenção da saúde e também as diversas frentes de pesquisa que a envolvem na atualidade. Dessa forma, é essencial que se criem novas formas de atualização que sejam rápidas e eficientes, direcionadas aos profissionais de saúde envolvidos no tratamento destes indivíduos.
