A natação é um esporte praticado em meio líquido o que a torna muito dependente da técnica do nadador, pelo fato de apresentar maior resistência quando comparado com o meio terrestre. A força muscular, composição corporal e a técnica do nado são alguns fatores determinantes para a melhora do desempenho esportivo do atleta. Sendo assim, a capacidade de gerar força propulsiva e minimizar a resistência ao meio líquido são altamente influenciadoras do desempenho nesta modalidade. Um dos principais músculos utilizados na propulsão da braçada do nado crawl é o tríceps braquial o qual é responsável pela extensão do cotovelo. O nível de força dos membros dominante e não dominante também pode influenciar no desequilíbrio muscular dos nadadores e consequentemente na propulsão do atleta. Sendo assim, o objetivo deste estudo foi analisar a reprodutibilidade de pico de torque (PT) durante as contrações isométrica e isocinética concêntrica em diferentes velocidades do músculo tríceps braquial nos membros dominante e não dominante em nadadores. Participaram do estudo nadadores velocistas e meio fundistas do gênero masculino, com idade entre 18 e 28 anos, com experiência no mínimo de 3 anos na modalidade. Os voluntários foram solicitados a comparecer no laboratório em 3 ocasiões em dias diferentes. Primeiramente para obter as medidas antropométricas (massa, estatura, envergadura e dobras cutâneas) e logo em seguida foi feita a familiarização ao teste isométrico e isocinético no dinamômetro. Nas próximas visitas os atletas realizaram no dinamômetro isocinético, o teste máximo para determinação do PT da contração isométrica e isocinéticas concêntricas em diferentes velocidades. O procedimento foi realizado duas vezes em dias diferentes. O teste para determinação do PT isométrico e isocinético foi realizado de forma aleatória...

The objective of this study was to investigate the influence of previous active static stretch on the isometric peak torque (PT) and rate of force development (RFD) measured from different time intervals from the beginning of muscle contraction. Participated of this study 15 male individuals, apparently healthy, with ages between 18 and 25 years, without regular physical activity practice. The individuals were submitted in different days to the following tests: 1) Familiarization session to the isokinetic dynamometer; 2) Two maximal isometric concentric contractions for knee extensors in isokinetic dynamometer to determine PT and RFD (Control), and; 3) Two active static stretching exercises for the dominant leg extensors (10 x 30 s for each exercise, with 20 s of rest). After the stretching, the isokinetic test was repeated (Post-Stretching). The conditions 2 and 3 were performed in random order. The RFD was considered as the mean slope of the moment-time curve at time intervals of 0-30, 0-50 and 0-100ms relative to the beginning of muscle contraction. It was verified significant reduction for both maximal RFD and PT after the stretching (p < 0.05). At intervals of 0- 30ms, 0-50ms and 0-100ms, the RFD at the conditions with stretching was similar to the RFD without stretching (p > 0.05). At intervals of 0-150ms and 0-200ms, the RFD obtained at the contraction without stretching was significantly higher that that obtained at the contraction with stretching (p < 0.05). It can be concluded that the static stretching, performed with duration of 600 s diminish isometric PT, maximal RFD and RFD measured at late phase (> 100 ms) of muscle contraction.

The composite resin is the material of election for direct restorations in posterior teeth currently. The restorative dentistry aims to improve each day the material and facilitate the restorative technique. This paper describes the technique of occlusal matrix made to speed up and preservation the occlusal surface of a first molar tooth affected by caries lesion. A new resin-based composite was used called Silorane, which may be placed in larger increments due the material has low shrinkage and polymerization stress. The use of occlusal matrix associated with a low shrinkage resin composite can simplify the clinical work, and result in a restoration with excellent reproduction of anatomical.

To evaluate the volumetric changes due to polymerization and thermocycling on different resin-composites. Methods: Thirteen A2 Universal Dentin shade resin-composites (n = 10) from eight manufacturers were evaluated (4Seasons, Grandio, Venus, Amelogen Plus, P90, Z350, Esthet-X, Amaris, Vita-l-escence, Natural-Look, Charisma, Z250 and Opallis). The polymerization shrinkage percentage (PS) was calculated using an image measurement device (ACUVOL - Bisco Dental). Equal volumes of material, standardized by a semisphere polyurethane matrix (d = 3mm) were used and, after 5 minutes of relaxation, the baseline volume measurements were obtained with 18 J of energy dose from the LED light-curing unit. Measurements were obtained after 5 minutes and PS values calculated. Specimens were stored in a drydark environment for 24 hours and re-measured. Specimens were then thermocycled in distilled water between 5oC and 55oC for 20,000 cycles, subjected to another volume measurement at 5,000 cycle intervals. Specimens were gently dried prior to each measurement. Results: Repeated measurements were made using ANOVA (α = 0.05) showed that all resin-composite volumes were influenced by the number of cycles. Volumes at 5 minutes post-polymerization (12.47 ± 0.08) were significantly lower than those at baseline (12.80 ± 0.09). Volumes at 24 hours (12.43 ± 0.19) were insignificantly lower than those at 5 minutes postpolymerization. With regards to the impact of thermocycling, all specimens showed statistically significant increases in volume after 5,000 cycles (13.04 ± 0.22). Although statistically different from those after 5,000 cycles, there was no statistically significant difference between volumes measured at 10,000 (12.87±0.21), 15,000 (12.92±0.24), and 20,000 (12.84±0.23) cycles. Conclusion: According to the video-imaging analysis, thermocycling caused a significant expansion in resin-composites tested, the volume increase was not able to...
