Examine the effects Global Postural Reeducation, (GPR) in hyperkyphosis and respiratory variables in the elderly was the objective in the research. For this, two elderly participated, one is 62 years old (voluntary 1) and another is 66 years old (voluntary 2), without lung, heart, kidney and/or skeletal-muscle diseases diagnosed. The volunteer have been assessed for Quality of Life (QOL) through the questionnaire SF-36, the degree of toracic kyphosis, the muscular respiratory strength and the thoracic-abdominal mobility. The GRP treatment consisted in eight sessions applied, once one hour each session. After the eight sessions the volunteer were reevaluated. The data concerning assessments before and after treatment were analysed describly. According to the results there was an improvement in the degree of kyphosis in both volunteers, highlighting voluntary 2. Respiratory variables also improvements after treatment. In relation to the Quality of life in most areas there has been an increase in scores indicating improved QOL. These data showed that the GPR has been effective to decrease the level of kyphosis, improves respiratory variables and the quality of life in the elderly treated. However, further work with a greater number of subjects must be carried out to analyze the effectiveness of therapy in the elderly.

Estudo de um caso de tratamento de câncer com um produto alternativo às técnicas convencionais

This work consists of a case study, a qualitative methodology, which aims to show the effects of TIVALLEC, a supplement in vitamins, as an alternative treatment of cancer. This study had also the objective of evaluating one patient’s quality of life thirteen years after being diagnosed with an advanced prostate cancer, and having decided for an alternative treatment using TIVALLEC instead of conventional treatments, having obtained excellent results. An open interview was conducted with patient, evaluating various aspects of his life after the initial diagnosis and the chosen treatment. The answers were transcribed after being limitedly edited for readability. At the end of the study, with the support of recent literature, the interview allowed the conclusion that TIVALLEC was greatly effective, creating good quality of life and wellness for the patient during all the period of thirteen year after the diagnosis up to now. These alternative treatment results may be seen as demanding new studies to help cancer patients who embrace or not the conventional treatments

Limites e possibilidades para a dinamização das atividades econômicas em assentamentos da reforma agrária no Estado de São Paulo

This paper provides an overview of the key findings of a survey that sought to examine the relationship between local government agencies and agrarian reform communities in the State of São Paulo, particularly with regard to the types of support that have been provided by these agencies to the economic activities of settlements. The research was part of the project "The agencies and services involved in the implementation of public policies for equity and growth", which was supported by the Instituto de Colonização e Reforma Agraria (INCRA/SP), whose activities were carried out throughout 2011. In methodological terms, the research was divided into two stages. In the first stage, it sought to identify the main economic activities, vocations and potential of the influencing areas of the Quilombola communities and settlements in their respective regions and micro-regions. Therefore, a survey was conducted based on secondary data. In the second stage, a qualitative, exploratory, empirical, and multiple case study research was conducted. Local public officials, in charge of the institutional relations with the agrarian reform settlements (and quilombolas communities, in this case, one of the municipalities investigated) were the primary source of data for this analysis that sought to evaluate the strength, types and quality of support (plausible or effective) provided by the municipalities to the economic activities of settlements. The results indicated a set of reasonably heterogeneous components, and frequently, distinct, of particular circumstances. Based on the results some proposals for action plans were indicated, which probably would constitute a standard reference for the formulation and implementation of public policies and actions to improve the economic activities of the settlements.

Políticas públicas municipais de apoio a atividades econômicas em assentamentos rurais: uma análise em quatro municípios paulistas

This paper reports a master research that aimed to analyze the patterns of institutional relationships between local officials and communities of agrarian reform settlements in four counties of the State of São Paulo – Apiaí, Iaras, Promissão and Mirante do Paranapanema – particularly with regard to the types of support offered by the first to the economic activities in the settlements. In terms of methodology, we conducted a qualitative, exploratory and descriptive research, outlined in the format of multiple case study. Having like data sources the local officials responsible for institutional relations with the agrarian reform settlements, technicians agents of agencys linkeds to the land question, as INCRA and ITESP, and settled in leadership positions in rural settlements, we sought to evaluate the intensity, the types and quality of the (possible or actual) support offered by municipalities to economic activities inside the settlements. We sought to evaluate the results from theoretical lens formed around the notions of local development and the significance assumed by settlements in different locations. The results showed a fairly heterogeneous and, often, disparate in particular circumstances. It was evident, from the information collected, that a positive action of the municipal government in supporting the economic activities of the settlements is essential for the release of social energy based in settlements, enabling the realization of the "amalgam of possibilities" constructed from the implementation of rural settlements.

Formulação de Estratégias no Turismo: um estudo em órgãos municipais do Estado de São Paulo

O objetivo desta pesquisa é investigar a formulação de estratégias em órgãos públicos municipais de turismo do Estado de São Paulo. Para este fim realizou-se um estudo de casos múltiplos em seis municípios: Santos, Guarujá, Praia Grande, São Caetano do Sul, Rio Grande da Serra e Guarulhos. Os dados foram coletados através de entrevistas semiestruturadas. Constatou-se que estes órgãos municipais desenvolvem um encaminhamento lógico na formulação de estratégias, os quais apresentam em seus estágios iniciais características de informalidade, e na evolução deste processo contemplam-se necessidades e desejos dos consumidores e de outros stakeholders. Todo o processo de formulação de estratégias recebe influência de diversos stakeholders. As principais dificuldades encontradas no processo de formulação estratégica foram: falta de mobilização coletiva, conflitos de interesses e carência de recursos.

Los arreglos institucionales y políticas públicas en Brasil : Un análisis preliminar sobre el desarrollo urbano-territorial en Pernambuco

El presente trabajo pretende analizar teóricamente los arreglos institucionales y su relación con la política pública brasileña, centrándose en las perspectivas de "desarrollo" urbano-territorial de las ciudades de Brasil. Está siendo examinada de forma preliminar, a cargo de la capacidad de los arreglos institucionales en las ciudades de su marcha funcional, porque cuanto mayor sea el franqueo será una mayor cantidad de intervenciones de agentes exógenos sobre el territorio. Por otro lado, las ciudades más pequeñas no tendrán una funcionalidad y una complejidad muy grandes, por eso serán las actuaciones endógenas que dominarán el territorio - los arreglos institucionales locales. Para la promoción del debate ha sido insertados dos estudios prácticos: el primero en la ciudad de Recife Metropolitana y sus relaciones con las principales desarrolladoras de vivienda en la intervención de las políticas públicas de planificación urbana y otra en la ciudad media de Petrolina-PE con el caso de la aplicación de la incubadora do Vale do Sao Francisco (INVASF). Finalmente es importante tener en cuenta que es un debate preliminar en la que requiere más pruebas (estudios y investigaciones) sobre la relación entre los arreglos institucionales (endógenos y exógenos) promotores de las políticas públicas y el tamaño de las ciudades
