Introduction: sexually transmitted diseases (DST) can represent an important impact on teenager’s health due its consequences. Objective: to identify the perception and knowledge of teenagers about DST, its transmission forms and contraception. Methods: it was made a cross-sectional study type investigation, with 136 teenager students from a Technical Education Public Institution in a middle-sized city. It was used a tested instrument, self answered, with opened and closed questions about theme and sociodemographic data. The same data were stored and analyzed by Program Epi Info version 3.5.1. Results: 97,1% affirmed to know male condoms, 89,0% oral contraceptives, 87,5% female condoms, 74,3% postcoital contraceptives, 47,8% natural family planning methods, 41,9% hormonal injection, 33,1% intrauterine devices, 31,6% coitus interruptus and 1,5% other contraceptive methods. According with them, the information was gave principally on high school (46,1%), by friends or partners (20,3%), doctor (10,9%), television (10,2%). In relation to DST, 98,5% affirmed that diseases can be transmitted during coitus. The aids (91,2%) and herpes (72,8%) were the most cited diseases. Just 31,6% of teenagers affirmed that run the risk to acquire some DST, and 88,4% of them, due no use of condoms, 30,2% due their partner make relation with other people, 18% due have many sexual partners and 9,3% due other causes. Conclusion: even teenagers knowing many contraceptive methods and sexually transmitted diseases, the teenagers have not prevented theirselves yet. It’s necessary that the high school reinforce the use of contraceptive methods, because the school is an important source of educative information on health area.

The association of Helicobacter pylori with different gastric diseases has been continuously discussed in the literature, whereas the last 20 years a large body of publications was intended to characterize the ecological niches and habitats of this pathogen being the mouth a possible habitat for that rod. The present study aimed to discuss the occurrence of this organism as part of the supplemental or transient microbiota of the mouth. Thus, an extensive review of literature covering the period 1990-2014 was carried out with different databases, yielding 5024 articles discussing transmission and occurrence of H. pylori, in English or Portuguese. Articles were selected according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria and data were tabulated and analyzed. Despite the significant heterogeneity of the literature, it was found this microaerophilic has a worldwide distribution, even in the mouth, which behaves as a reservoir for gastric reinfection. The role of oral hygiene and periodontal disease in the distribution of this microorganism remains unclear, but most studies support the hypothesis that oral biofilms and inflammation of periodontium may facilitate the installation of this pathogen in the mouth. Studies suggest that this microorganism could collaborate as a predisposing factor for oral cancer.

Periodontal disease has been increasingly associated as a supporting factor, and even a precursor to some systemic diseases. Just aim of this paper was to analyze by reviewing the literature, the possible mechanisms involved in the etiopathogenesis of periodontal disease that are common to the current systemic diseases such as obesity, atherosclerosis, diabetes and rheumatoid arthritis. The articles were analyzed with in the publication period of the years 2006 to 2011 and were surveyed in the databases PubMed, LILACS and SciELO. Of a total of 907 articles found by searching the indices and their associations, were selected by inclusion criteria 93 articles. For the preparation of this literature review, only 24 articles were selected because they are based on inflammatory mechanisms, metabolic and infectious, where the considerations for the strongest associations in the literature. This literature review reinforces the association of periodontal disease with systemic diseases analyzed due to presence of inflammatory and immunological mechanisms and similar synergism betwen the two diseases, but some hypotheses still need further clarification. The professional should stick to recent discoveries associations to promote periodontal treatment in preventing the development of systemic diseases, as well as in maintaining the systemic health of patients already suffering from chronic systemic diseases.

Although leisure physical activity has been investigated in general population, there is absence of data in Brazilian Public Health System about this issue. Thus, the purpose of this study was to analyze in patients attended by Public Health System the prevalence of leisure physical activity, as well as, to identify its correlates and associated diseases. Sample was composed by 963 patients (707 female and 256 male) randomly selected at five basic healthcare units. Leisure physical activity was assessed by Baecke’s questionnaire and subjects with ≥180 and ≥240 minutes per week were classified as sufficiently active. General and central obesity were assessed by body mass index and waist circumference, respectively. Diseases of high occurrence were classified according CID-10. There was low rate of physically active subjects in leisure time (14.8%),but high rate of abdominal obesity (70.1%) and orthopedic diseases (72.1%). Physically active subjects in leisure time had lower occurrence of orthopedic diseases (OR= 0.60 [OR95%CI: 0.37 – 0.98]). The same pattern of association was observed for central obesity (OR= 0.35 [OR95%CI: 0.19 – 0.65]). It is low the rate of physically active in leisure time at Brazilian Public Health System, which is associated with orthopedic diseases.

The study of prehistoric artifacts may contribute to understand the development of these artifacts, and also of ergonomics. This study aims to investigate and identify the types of grips of two Brazilian stone tools (scraper / piercer and a slug) approximately 5000 years old through the use of gloves with sensors and contact maps of the hand palm, exploring the best method for research of ergonomics in prehistory. Hence it can contribute to the discussion of a part of the ergonomics’ history that remains underexplored.

We can see a current increase in individuals' body care in our society. What happened predominantly with the female audience, today also affects the male one. This increase has recently been linked to the required and exposed standards of beauty by the consumer's culture. The media reinforce this ideology by exhibiting non-fat, Strong bodies. This huge appreciation of beauty in our time has generated numerous disorders related to body image. The vigorexia is one of these disorders and it is predominantly characterized in men, and it has defined in the literature as muscle dysmorphic disorder. Such disorder is generated through a self-distorted perception of the body in which the individual sees his body smaller than it really is, and thereby creates various strategies to increase their body size. One of these strategies has been the use of anabolic androgenic steroids, such substances assist in muscle protein synthesis, thus leading to hypertrophy. Thus, the subjects are released for use with the sense to accelerate his path to the perfect body. Warning that the rampant use of anabolic-androgenic steroids can lead to serious health problems. So, this study is justified by the investigation of the mechanisms that act directly in the construction of body image and by the understanding of the aspects that guide the vigorexia and also how it's related to the use of androgenic anabolic steroids
