Quantifying the association between physical activity and injury in primary school-aged children

BACKGROUND. Regular physical activity is strongly advocated in children, with recommendations suggesting up to several hours of daily participation. However, an unintended consequence of physical activity is exposure to the risk of injury. To date, these risks have not been quantified in primary school-aged children despite injury being a leading cause for hospitalization and death in this population. OBJECT. Our goal was to quantify the risk of injury associated with childhood physical activity both in and out of the school setting and calculate injury rates per exposure time for organized and non-organized activity outside of school. METHODS. The Childhood Injury Prevention Study prospectively followed a cohort of randomly selected Australian primary school- and preschool-aged children (4 to 12 years). Over 12 months, each injury that required first aid attention was registered with the study. Exposure to physical activity outside school hours was measured by using a parent-completed 7-day diary. The age and gender distribution of injury rates per 10 000 hours of exposure were calculated for all activity and for organized and non-organized activity occurring outside school hours. In addition, child-based injury rates were calculated for physical activity-related injuries both in and out of the school setting. RESULTS. Complete diary and injury data were available for 744 children. There were 504 injuries recorded over the study period, 396 (88.6%) of which were directly related to physical activity. Thirty-four percent of physical activity-related injuries required professional medical treatment. Analysis of injuries occurring outside of school revealed an overall injury rate of 5.7 injuries per 10 000 hours of exposure to physical activity and a medically treated injury rate of 1.7 per 10 000 hours. CONCLUSION. Injury rates per hours of exposure to physical activity were low in this cohort of primary school-aged children, with < 2 injuries requiring medical treatment occurring for every 10 000 hours of activity participation outside of school.

Associação do sobrepeso, obesidade I e II e circunferência da cintura com sintomas de ansiedade e depressão

Este estudo objetivou associar o sobrepeso, obesidade I e II e Circunferência da Cintura (CC) com sintomas de ansiedade e depressão em adultos que buscavam primeiro atendimento médico nutricional para emagrecimento em consultório do município de Santos São Paulo - Brasil, mesmo os que já haviam tentado emagrecer anteriormente. Para coletar dados, foi utilizada uma ficha para caracterização do participante, Inventário IDATE para ansiedade traço estado, Inventário de Beck (BDI) para depressão, balança antropométrica para aferição do peso, altura e cálculo do Índice de Massa Corporal (IMC), fita métrica inelástica para aferir CC. Os dados dos 81 participantes demonstraram que 38% eram jovens, 36% casados, 63% possuíam nível superior completo, 45% alta renda familiar. Estavam em sobrepeso 56% e obesidade I 28%, e 64% apresentavam 77 a 100 cm de CC. A análise simples da distribuição dos sintomas de ansiedade e depressão na elevação do IMC e da CC demonstra que, conforme estes aumentam, a ansiedade e depressão diminuem. Houve alta ocorrência de sintomas de ansiedade traço (75%) estado (70%) de intensidade média baixa e de depressão mínima (64%) que decaem de freqüência conforme eleva o IMC e a CC, bem como redução de freqüência às consultas conforme eleva o IMC. Não houve casos de depressão grave. A análise estatística de Pearson não encontrou correlação entre IMC e CC com sintomas de ansiedade e depressão, o mesmo ocorrendo com o teste para associação Qui-quadrado. Os resultados sugerem ocorrer uma acomodação emocional do indivíduo às pressões causadas pela elevação do peso corporal e os participantes apresentavam-se, em sua maioria, hiporreativos, indiferentes ou insensíveis aos acontecimentos, com desinteresse geral ou falta de desejos aparentando resistência ao tratamento e apatia.

A sustainable supply chain study of the Indian bioenergy sector

In India, more than one third of the population do not currently have access to modern energy services. Biomass to energy, known as bioenergy, has immense potential for addressing India’s energy poverty. Small scale decentralised bioenergy systems require low investment compared to other renewable technologies and have environmental and social benefits over fossil fuels. Though they have historically been promoted in India through favourable policies, many studies argue that the sector’s potential is underutilised due to sustainable supply chain barriers. Moreover, a significant research gap exists. This research addresses the gap by analysing the potential sustainable supply chain risks of decentralised small scale bioenergy projects. This was achieved through four research objectives, using various research methods along with multiple data collection techniques. Firstly, a conceptual framework was developed to identify and analyse these risks. The framework is founded on existing literature and gathered inputs from practitioners and experts. Following this, sustainability and supply chain issues within the sector were explored. Sustainability issues were collated into 27 objectives, and supply chain issues were categorised according to related processes. Finally, the framework was validated against an actual bioenergy development in Jodhpur, India. Applying the framework to the action research project had some significant impacts upon the project’s design. These include the development of water conservation arrangements, the insertion of auxiliary arrangements, measures to increase upstream supply chain resilience, and the development of a first aid action plan. More widely, the developed framework and identified issues will help practitioners to take necessary precautionary measures and address them quickly and cost effectively. The framework contributes to the bioenergy decision support system literature and the sustainable supply chain management field by incorporating risk analysis and introducing the concept of global and organisational sustainability in supply chains. The sustainability issues identified contribute to existing knowledge through the exploration of a small scale and developing country context. The analysis gives new insights into potential risks affecting the whole bioenergy supply chain.

Literacia em saúde mental acerca da depressão e abuso de álcool de adolescentes e jovens Portugueses

RESUMO Objetivo: Este estudo tem como objetivos comparar a literacia em saúde mental dos adolescentes e jovens portugueses, relativamente à depressão e ao abuso de álcool e analisar o padrão de respostas em termos de consistência e concordância para ambas as perturbações. Método: A amostra é constituída por 4938 adolescentes e jovens, 43,0% do sexo masculino e 56,7% do sexo feminino, com uma média de idades de 16,75 anos (desvio padrão = 1,62 anos), que frequentam as escolas do 3.º ciclo do ensino básico e do ensino secundário, pertencentes à Direção Regional de Educação do Centro. Para a colheita de dados foi utilizado o QuALiSMental (LSM). Resultados: Os resultados revelam um nível de LSM modesto na generalidade das componentes. Ainda que se encontrem diferenças estatisticamente significativas (p < 0,05) em 88,0% dos itens da LSM, o que indicia diferentes formas de encarar ambos os problemas de saúde mental, os resultados revelam consistência, em termos das componentes conhecimentos e competências para prestar a primeira ajuda e apoio aos outros e conhecimentos acerca do modo de prevenção das perturbações mentais. ABSTRACT Objectives: This study aims to compare mental health literacy of adolescents and young Portuguese in what concerns depression and alcohol abuse and analyzes the pattern of responses in terms of consistency and agreement for both disorders. Method: The sample consisted of 4938 adolescents and young people, 43.0% males and 56.7% females with a mean age of 16.75 years (standard deviation = 1,62 years), who attend schools of the 3rd cycle of basic education and secondary school, belonging to the Regional Education Directorate – Center. For data collection was used QuALiSMental (MHL). Results: The results showed a modest level of MHL in most components. Although there are statistically significant differences (p < 0.05) in 88.0% of the items of MHL, suggesting different ways of looking to both mental health problems, the results show consistency in terms of the components of knowledge and skills to providing first aid and support to others and knowledge about the prevention of mental disorders.

Impacto del programa educativo en el conocimiento del protocolo de atención prehospitalaria aplicado por socorristas en trauma. Machala 2011 – 2012

Los socorristas de traumatizados en el área pre-hospitalaria en la ciudad de Machala, carecen de profesionales con formación académica de tercer nivel, en su mayoría son bachilleres con cursos básicos de primeros auxilios Objetivo.- Determinar el impacto de un programa educativo en el nivel de conocimiento de los protocolos de atención en trauma, usados por los socorristas que laboran en atención pre-hospitalaria de la ciudad de Machala. Métodos.-Realizamos un estudio cuasi experimental con dos grupos: Grupo estudio (n: 46) y grupo control (n: 45). Muestra obtenida de forma no aleatoria por conveniencia. Los socorristas fueron evaluados al inicio del estudio por un test previamente establecido, al grupo de estudio se aplicó un programa educativo, al grupo control no se lo intervino. Dos meses después se evaluó el impacto del programa. Resultados.- El programa educativo mejora el conocimiento global un 43% en el grupo de estudio. El impacto del programa de la atención pre-hospitalaria demostró un incremento en conocimientos: en respiratorio 56%; 67.9% en circulatorio y el 19.2% en neurológico; pero disminuye: en vía aérea 10.9% y 7.6% en la exposición de la víctima. El Riesgo relativo luego de la intervención es de 4.45 y se necesita aplicar el programa educativo a dos personas para mejorar una (NNT -2.4). Conclusión.- El programa educativo es útil para mejorar el conocimiento sobre atención pre-hospitalaria en trauma, sin lograr en los participantes alcanzar el nivel esperado por lo heterogéneo de su formación académica
