O envelhecimento populacional vem sendo um problema de saúde que atinge a Brasil na atualidade. Em nossa população o incremento de indivíduos nessa faixa etária é notório, assim como a falta de estratégias para enfrentar esse problema. O presente estudo teve como objetivo elaborar uma proposta de intervenção direcionada a promover a saúde e melhorar a qualidade de vida dos usuários idosos atendidos pela Equipe Azul do Centro de Saúde Santa Monica Anexo, do município de Belo Horizonte, Minas Gerais. Realizou-se uma revisão de literatura relacionada ao idoso na atenção primária com base em artigos indexados nas bases de dados da Literatura Latino-americana e do Caribe em Ciências da Saúde (LILACS) e MEDLINE. A partir da revisão da literatura, confirmaram-se os benefícios físicos, psicológicos e sociais advindos da prática de atividade física pelos indivíduos maiores de 60 anos e a experiência na aplicação de programas de atividade física no Brasil. O eixo principal da proposta de intervenção foi a prática de atividade física pelos idosos, supervisionada por profissionais da equipe de saúde da família. Pretende-se oferecer a oportunidade de se adotar um estilo de vida mais ativo, reduzir os riscos à saúde e melhorar a qualidade de vida dos idosos. Tendo em consideração a necessidade de implementação de programas que estimulem a adoção de estilo de vida ativo, cabe aos profissionais de saúde ser os facilitadores dos mesmos e lograr a conquista de um envelhecimento saudável.

This work was carried out with the objective of studying the spatial variability of the physical attributes of a Red-Yellow Ultisol under pasture and secondary vegetation in natural regeneration. Two areas were chosen in a hillside, with the soil sampling to the depth of 0-0.2 m, with the georeferenced points in a regular grid of 10x10 m, totalizing 64 points. In each point it was evaluated the total volume of porosity, macroporosity, microporosity, bulk density, soil penetration resistance and soil water content. The studied attributes in the pasture area present indicator of soil compaction for the animals' traffic, with moderate and strong structure of spatial dependence, except for the macroporosity and penetration resistance. In the area of secondary vegetation (VN) only the macroporosity does not present spatial dependence. The total volume of porosity and the bulk density present the same spatial standard in the area under pasture.

Tomatoes are one of the most important vegetable crops grown in Brazil and are among the crops that have one of the highest post-harvest losses indexes in the country. The present work aimed at evaluating impact damage observed in packing lines of fresh tomatoes as well as to determine, under laboratory conditions, quality alterations of tomato fruits submitted to impact damage in different surface types. Critical points evaluation was accomplished using an instrumented sphere. Critical transference points found showed variations in acceleration levels from 30 to 129 G (m s-2). Tests carried out under laboratory conditions showed that padded surfaces reduced up to 31% impact damage. Incidence of severe internal physical damage was evaluated by a subjective scale and increased by 79% on hard surfaces for the highest fall drop. On the other hand, it was observed an effective reduction in physical damage on fruits when padded surfaces were used. When a 10-cm drop was performed, the maximum reduction measured was 10% for hard surfaces and 5% for previously padded surfaces. For quality parameters, it was observed for high drops on hard surfaces, highest values for weight loss, total acidity, lower values for vitamin C and Soluble Solids.

OBJECTIVE: Evaluate the impact that trochanteric hip fractures produce on life quality of elderly patients, treated surgically, during one year of monitoring. METHODS: Were selected 73 elderly with transtrochanteric femur fracture, aged equal or over than 65 years and of both sexes. All participants underwent a standardized questionnaire which obtained information on lifestyle habits, functionality, physical activity, ambulation and cognitive state. Were excluded patients who died, not walking, with neurological diseases and pathological fractures. RESULTS: The average age was 80.17 ± 7.2 years and 75% was female. When comparing the summation of activities of daily living (p = 0.04) and instrumental daily living (p = 0.004) obtained before and after fracture, the patients become more dependent after fracture. Activities of daily living that worsened after fracture were bathing (p = 0.04), toileting (p = 0.02) and dressing (p = 0.04). All instrumental activities of daily living showed a significant difference, with functional dependence after fracture, increased need for walking aid (p = 0.00002), aged (p = 0.01) and not doing housework (p = 0.01). The low score on the test Minimental was associated with a greater dependence to perform activities of daily living before (p = 0.00002) and after (p = 0.01) fracture. CONCLUSION: After a year, activities of daily living that depended on the lower limbs worsened significantly, all instrumental activities of daily living were significantly worse in more than 50% of patients and more than half of patients who walked without support lost this ability.
