ABSTRACT

RESUMO Verificou-se a efetividade da associação do treino de equilíbrio no solo com o treino cardiorrespiratório na água sobre a capacidade funcional e o risco de quedas em mulheres adultas. Esse ensaio clínico não controlado unicego foi composto por 24 mulheres (60,79±5,51), submetidas a três meses de treinamento. Instrumentos: Short Physical Performance Battery (SPPB), Quick Screen Clinical Falls Risk Assessment (QSCFRA) e Teste de Caminhada de Seis Minutos (TC6). Houve melhora dos índices de equilíbrio, mas sem significância estatística. Ocorreu melhora significativa para o risco de quedas (p<0,001) e TC6 (p=0,049), com aumento médio de 39,58±95,5 m na distância percorrida. Houve correlações significativas entre TC6 e SPPB pré-treinamento (r=0,56, p=0,008), idade e QSCFRA (r=0,538, p=0,012) e comorbidades e QSCFRA (r=0,696; p=0,006). Verificou-se efetividade na associação dos treinos propostos sobre a diminuição do risco de quedas e melhora da capacidade funcional.


RESUMEN Se estudia si hay eficacia la asociación de los ejercicios de equilibrio en el suelo con el acondicionamiento cardiorrespiratorio en el agua en la capacidad funcional y en el riesgo de caídas de mujeres mayores. De este estudio clínico no aleatorizado a ciegas participaron 24 mujeres (60,79±5,51), evaluadas durante tres meses. Se emplearon las siguientes: Short Physical Performance Battery (SPPB), Quick Screen Clinical Falls Risk Assessment (QSCFRA) y la Prueba de Caminata de 6 minutos (PC6). Aunque los índices de equilibrio presentaron mejoras, no fueron estadísticamente significantes. El riesgo de caídas (p<0,001) y la PC6 (p=0,049) tuvieron mejoras significativas, con un promedio de aumento de 39,58±95,5 m en la distancia cumplida. Presentaron correlaciones significativas la PC6 y la SPPB preejercicio (r=0,56; p=0,008), la edad y la QSCFRA (r=0,538; p=0,012) y las comorbilidades y la QSCFRA (r=0,696; p=0,006). Se concluye que la relación entre los ejercicios propuestos es eficaz para disminuir caídas y mejorar la capacidad funcional.


ABSTRACT This study aimed to test the effectiveness of the association of balance training on the ground with cardiorespiratory training in the water on the functional capacity and risk of falls on adult women. This single-blind uncontrolled clinical trial was formed by 24 women (60.79±5.51), subjected to three months of training. Instruments: Short Physical Performance Battery (SPPB), QuickScreen Clinical Falls Risk Assessment (QSCFRA) and Six-Minute Walk Test (6mwt). Balance improvement was noticed, although without statistical significance. Significant improvement occurred for risk of falls (p<0.001) and 6mwt (p=0.049), with a 39.58±95.5 mean increase of distance covered. Significant correlations happened between 6mwt and pre-training SPPB (r=0.56, p=0.008), age and QSCFRA (r=0.538, p=0.012), and comorbidities and QSCFRA (r=0.696; p=0.006). Effectiveness was observed in association with the proposed training on reduction of risk of falls and functional capacity improvement.

ABSTRACT

The present study evaluated the perceived quality of life of the mothers of street children and investigated the association with their history of childhood violence, the occurrence of current domestic violence, their current mental states and that of their children, and family functioning. The applied instruments were as follows: Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire, WorldSAFECore Questionnaire, Instrument for the Assessment of Quality of Life of the WHO, Global Assessment of Relational Functioning Scale, Childhood Trauma Questionnaire and a socio-demographic questionnaire. The sample of convenience consisted of 79 low-income mothers who raised their children alone, and most of whom had a positive screening for mental illness. The multiple regression analysis showed that the perception of quality of life of these women was associated with the presence of psychopathology either in themselves or their children and family dysfunction. Thus any program aimed at improving the quality of life of such mothers should consider addressing their mental problems as well as those of their children, besides offering educational and psychotherapeutic approaches to these families to improve the social environment.


Avaliamos a percepção da qualidade de vida de mães de crianças em situação de rua e investigamos a sua possível associação com os antecedentes maternos de abuso e violência na infância e vitimização atual, sintomas emocionais delas e de seus filhos e com o funcionamento familiar. Foram aplicados os seguintes instrumentos: Instrumento para a Avaliação da Qualidade de Vida da OMS - versão abreviada, Questionário de Capacidades e Dificuldades, WorldSAFECore Questionnaire, Escala de Avaliação Global de Funcionamento nas Relações Familiares, Childhood Trauma Questionnaire e um questionário sociodemográfico. Nossa amostra de conveniência foi constituída por 79 mães, a maioria delas com rastreamento positivo para doença mental. Aplicamos um modelo de regressão múltipla que encontrou associação entre a percepção de pior qualidade de vida com a presença de psicopatologia nelas e em seus filhos e com pior funcionamento familiar. Dessa forma, qualquer programa voltado para a melhora da qualidade de vida de mães nessa condição deve considerar a abordagem de problemas mentais nelas e em seus filhos, além de oferecer recursos educacionais e psicoterapêuticos para as famílias, visando à melhora das condições socioambientais.


Se presenta aquí una evaluación de la calidad de vida percibida por madres de niños en las calles, y se investigó la posible asociación con antecedentes maternos de abuso y violencia en la infancia y victimización actual, los síntomas emocionales de ellos y de sus hijos y el funcionamiento familiar. Se aplicaron los Instrumentos para la Evaluación de la Calidad de Vida de la OMS - versión abreviada, Cuestionario de Capacidades y Dificultades, WorldSAFECore Questionnaire, Escala de Evaluación Global de Funcionamiento en las Relaciones Familiares, Childhood Trauma Questionnaire y un cuestionario sociodemográfico. La muestra incluyó a 79 madres, la mayoría de ellas con una detección positiva para la enfermedad mental. La percepción de calidad de vida se asoció con la presencia de psicopatología en ellos y sus hijos y el funcionamiento familiar. Por lo tanto, cualquier programa destinado a mejorar la calidad de vida de las madres en esta condición debe considerar el enfoque de los problemas mentales en ellos y sus hijos y ofrecer trabajo educativo y terapéutico a esas familias.

ABSTRACT

Objective: To ascertain whether genetic variations in the serotonin transporter gene (5-HTTLPR 44-bp insertion/deletion polymorphism) influence an increase in depressive and anxiety symptoms in children and adolescents exposed to high levels of violence. Methods: Saliva samples were collected from a group of children who were working on the streets and from their siblings who did not work on the streets. DNA was extracted from the saliva samples and analyzed for 5-HTTLPR polymorphism genotypes. Results: One hundred and seventy-seven children between the ages of 7 and 14 years were analyzed (114 child workers and 63 siblings). Data on socioeconomic conditions, mental symptoms, and presence and severity of maltreatment and urban violence were collected using a sociodemographic inventory and clinical instruments. There was no positive correlation between the 5-HTTLPR polymorphism and presence of mental symptoms in our sample, although the children were exposed to high levels of abuse, neglect, and urban violence. Conclusions: Despite previous studies that associated adult psychiatric disorders with the 5-HTTLPR polymorphism and a history of childhood maltreatment, no such association was found in this sample of children at risk. .

ABSTRACT

Objective: To quantitatively study the exposure to childhood maltreatment and urban violence in children from families with at least one child working on the streets and to investigate the relationship between these factors and street work. Methods: Families who participated in a nongovernmental organization (NGO) program to eliminate child labor were included. Data concerning sociodemographic characteristics, punishment methods used in the family environment against the children, five types of abuse and neglect perpetrated by the caregivers, urban violence exposure and family functioning were collected. Results: The sample included 126 children who were working on the streets and 65 siblings who were not working on the streets. Caregivers reported high levels of severe physical punishment. The children reported high levels of abuse and neglect, and high levels of urban violence exposure. The families showed a predominance of dysfunctional and unsatisfactory relationships. A multiple logistic regression model showed that age older than 12 years and severe physical punishment at home were associated with street work. Conclusion: Interventions to decrease the risk of child street work should be family-focused and should aim to reduce violence in the family environment. .

ABSTRACT

Apesar de a religiosidade afetar a satisfação no casamento, sua influência na busca do cônjuge é pouco investigada. O objetivo desta pesquisa foi investigar a influência da religião no ideal do futuro cônjuge e as estratégias empregadas pelos jovens evangélicos nessa busca. Quanto ao método, foram entrevistados 20 jovens entre 18 e 25 anos, membros de comunidades evangélicas históricas (Igreja Presbiteriana) e neopentecostais (Igreja Universal do Reino de Deus) de Vitória. Como resultados, a maioria esperava encontrar o futuro cônjuge na mesma denominação ou fé, considerava importante o perfil religioso do futuro companheiro e reconhecia a influência da família e de amigos nessa questão. Apesar dos alvos semelhantes, as estratégias, nas duas denominações, diferiram em função da organização das atividades. Pôde-se concluir que a religião influenciou os alvos e as estratégias empregadas na busca do futuro cônjuge ou parceiro estável.


Despite the effects of religiosity on marriage satisfaction, its influence on the search for a spouse is little investigated. This work aimed at investigating the influence of religion on the future spouse' s ideal and the strategies used to search him/her among evangelical young adults. Regarding the method, twenty young adults, from 18 to 25 years old, members of historical evangelical communities (Presbyterian Church) and neo-pentecostal communities (Universal Church of the Kingdom of God) of Vitória were interviewed. As results, most expected to find the future spouse in the same denomination or faith, considered important the religious profile of the future companion and recognized the influence from family and friends on this subject. Although presenting similar targets, strategies were different in the two denominations, due to activities organization. It is was concluded that religion influenced both targets and strategies used to look for the future spouse or companion.

ABSTRACT

O fixador externo de Ilizarov foi desenvolvido em 1951 pelo Professor Gavrill Ilizarov, permitindo o remodelamento e o alongamento ósseo, possibilitando correção de fraturas e deformidades ósseas. O objetivo deste estudo foi avaliar a eficácia da fisioterapia segundo o protocolo de Borges modificado em um paciente com trauma de membro inferior da Clínica-escola de Fisioterapia da Faculdade Integrada do Recife. Foi utilizada uma avaliação fisioterapêutica específica para os distúrbios musculoesqueléticos, na qual foram anotados todos os sinais e sintomas de relevância para prognóstico e diagnóstico fisioterapêutico. Os resultados obtidos com o tratamento demonstraram ausência de dor, rigidez moderada dos tecidos moles, redução significativa do edema, cicatrização efetiva nos transpassos dos fios de Kischner, mobilidade patelar relativamente restrita, índice de Barthel com completa independência nas AVD’s e AVP’s e marcha com muleta canadense unilateral. Pode-se dizer que o tratamento proposto potencializou os aspectos funcionais e reduziu os efeitos deletérios do membro acometido.
