The crack addicts, who seek treatment to dump the drug use, face abstinence – surrounded period of anxiety. With a large number of crack addicts in our country, it is necessary to search for alternative measures that help to reduce anxiety levels. The present study aimed to investigate the clinical anxiolytic potential of Citrus aurantium L. on crack addicts in abstinence. The study was developed with internal users admitted to therapeutic farms in Paraiba, Brazil. The sample consisted of 51 volunteers, who were divided into three groups. To elicit anxiety, were used the Public Speech Simulation (PSS). Physiological measurements was evaluated in the experiment using appropriate equipment, as also psychological measures of anxiety levels, using the State Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI) and Analog Scale Humo (EAH). The essential oil of Citrus aurantium L. was administered by nebulization. The experiment was developed in unique and individual sessions and consolidated in four stages: (I) Basal (II) Stressor, (III) During and (IV) Final. Data analysis was performed using parametric and non-parametric statistical methods. The results showed that the volunteers of the groups using the OE kept anxiety levels controlled during the PSS, with statistical difference when compared to "control". Volunteers, who used the OE also maintained stable levels of the "discomfort" and "Cognitive Impairment" measured by EAH in moments of realization of PSS. It follows that internal crack users individuals in abstinence have a high trait anxiety, and the EO Citrus aurantium L. nebuliser presented acute anxiolytic effect on internal crack users in abstinence submitted to PSS. / A dependência química na atualidade é um fenômeno amplamente discutido, entre as drogas de maior poder de destruição destaca-se o crack. Os dependentes de crack que procuram tratamento para abandono do uso da droga enfrentam a abstinência, período cercado de ansiedade. Com um número elevado de dependentes de crack em nosso país faz-se necessário à busca por medidas alternativas que contribuam para a redução dos níveis de ansiedade. O estudo teve como objetivo a investigação clínica do potencial ansiolítico do Citrus aurantium L. em dependentes de crack em estado de abstinência. O estudo foi desenvolvido com usuários internos em fazendas terapêuticas na Paraíba. A amostra foi constituída por 51 voluntários, que foram subdivididos em três grupos. Para eliciar a ansiedade foi utilizado o Teste de Simulação de Falar em Público (TSFP). Foram mensuradas medidas fisiológicas nos momentos do experimento utilizando equipamentos adequados e medidas psicológicas dos níveis de ansiedade utilizando o Inventário de Ansiedade Traço- Estado (IDATE) e a Escala Analógica do Humo (EAH). O óleo essencial do Citrus aurantium L. foi administrado por nebulização. O experimento foi desenvolvido em sessões únicas e individuais e se consolidou em quatro momentos: (I) Basal, (II) Estressor, (III) Durante e (IV) Final. A análise dos dados foi realizada utilizando métodos estatísticos paramétricos e não-paramétricos. Os resultados demostraram que os voluntários dos grupos que utilizaram o OE mantiveram níveis de ansiedade controlados durante a realização do TSFP, apresentando diferença estatística em relação ao grupo ―Controle‖. Os voluntários que utilizaram o OE também mantiveram estáveis os níveis de ―Desconforto‖ e ―Prejuízo Cognitivo‖ mensurados pela EAH nos momentos de realização do TSFP. Conclui-se que indivíduos usuários de crack internos em abstinência apresentam um alto traço de ansiedade e que o OE de Citrus aurantium L. por nebulização apresentou efeito ansiolítico agudo em usuários de crack internos em abstinência submetidos ao TSFP.

Introdução: A experiência da dor vivida pelo atleta de alto rendimento é tida como cotidiana e marcador de bom rendimento nos treinos e competições. Há uma crescente procura pelas terapias integrativas e complementares à saúde visando o bem-estar, qualidade de vida, rendimento e, principalmente, uma prática livre do risco de dopping. A aromaterapia, ciência que estuda o uso terapêutico dos óleos essenciais (OEs), tem mostrado resultados positivos empiricamente, porém, fazem-se necessárias pesquisas que validem tais práticas a fim de, com segurança e eficácia, servir àqueles que a necessitam e procuram. Objetivo: Avaliar o efeito dos óleos essenciais (OEs) sobre a dor no atleta de alto rendimento. Métodos: Estudo piloto quasi-experimental, cegado para o participante, com duas fases: a primeira com utilização de placebo (15 dias) denominada grupo Dor A, a segunda com OEs (15 dias) chamada grupo Dor B e um follow-up de sete dias. Amostra de conveniência composta por 26 atletas adultos de alto rendimento. A intervenção foi realizada com uma sinergia de OEs (lavanda, gengibre e sucupira) e como placebo foi utilizado óleo vegetal inerte (OV). Para a coleta de dados foram utilizados um questionário com dados sóciodemográficos e prática do esporte, recordatório de dor e tratamentos durante o período de estudo, e escalas de Humor de Brunel (BRUMS) e Inventário Breve de Dor (IBD). Para análise de dados utilizou-se o modelo de efeitos fixos e o teste de Bonferroni, teste d Cohen, além de medidas descritivas de tendência central e de variabilidade. Resultados: No início do tratamento, os 26 atletas apresentaram médias de dor de 5,2 no grupo Dor A e 5,6 no grupo Dor B. Após o tratamento com o óleo medicado houve redução de 79% na dor logo após os 15 dias de aplicação e de 81% ao final do período de follow-up (p < 0,001). O nível de tensão medido pela Escala de Humor de Brunel indicou melhora de 37%, logo após o período de aplicação do óleo medicado e 49% após o período de follow-up (p < 0,05). Conclusão: Os resultados mostraram que a sinergia de óleos essências em diluição de 10% teve efeito sobre a dor de atletas de alto rendimento em três aplicações diárias por 15 dias e possuiu efeito residual em sete dias de follow-up (p < 0,05). Observou-se efeito sobre o humor dos atletas, com diminuição da tensão (preocupação e tensão musculoesquelética). / Introduction: The experience of pain felt by high performance athletes is very common, and it is a sign of good performance in training and in competition too. There is a growing demand for integrative and complementary therapies aiming wellness, quality of life and performance increase, without the risk of doping. The science of aromatherapy, that studies the therapeutic use of essential oils (EOs), has shown positive results empirically, however, research is necessary to validate such practices in order to safely and effectively serve those who need it and seek it. Objective: evaluate the effect of essential oils over high performance athletes pain. Methods: Quasi-experimental pilot study, blinded to the participant, with two phases: the first one with the use of placebo (15 days) called Pain A group; the second with EOs (15 days) called Pain B group; and a follow-up of seven days. Convenience sample of 26 high performance adult athletes. For intervention, a synergy of EOs (lavender, ginger and sucupira) was used, and for placebo an inert vegetable oil (OV). For data collection, the following questionnaires were used: a sociodemographic data and sports practice questionnaire; a pain and treatment recall questionnaire; the Brunel Mood Scale (BRUMS), and the Brief Pain Inventory (IBD). For data analysis, it was used the fixed-effect model, the Bonferroni test, the d Cohen test, and descriptive measures of central tendency and variability. Results: At the beginning of the treatment, the 26 athletes scored 5.2 of pain average (Pain A group) and 5.6 of pain average (Pain B group). After the treatment with OE (15 days), the pain was reduced by 79% and 81% at the end of the follow-up period (p <0.001). The tension level measured by the Brunel Mood Scale indicated improvement of 37% after the period of OE application, and 49% after the follow-up period (p <0, 05). Conclusion: The results showed that the synergy of essential oils at 10% dilution had effect on the pain of high performance athletes in three daily applications for 15 days and residual effect by seven days of follow-up (p <0.05). In addition, the results showed effect on the athletes mood, with reduced tension (tension and musculoskeletal strain).

INTRODUCAO: Os sintomas de climaterio podem perturbar intensamente a vida, sendo o fogacho o sintoma de maior incidencia. Aromaterapia e yogaterapia podem oferecer tratamentos eficazes para sintomas de climaterio, em especial o fogacho, por apresentarem mecanismos terapeuticos semelhantes ao eixo fisiologico do fogacho. OBJETIVO PRINCIPAL: Verificar e analisar os desfechos clinicos fisiologicos e psicologicos da aromaterapia olfativa e de exercicios respiratorios de yogaterapia, associados e individualmente, na qualidade de vida, nos niveis de stress subjetivo e na intensidade e frequencia do fogacho de mulheres na fase do climaterio. METODO: Foram avaliadas 85 mulheres na fase do climaterio, das quais 64 participaram da Fase 1 (somente avaliacao) do estudo e 34 participaram da Fase 2 (tratamento). A coleta foi realizada no CEPE-USP. O estudo consiste de um ensaio clinico pragmatico com randomizacao restrita, controlado por grupo controle e placebo, duplo-cego, com intervencao baseada no modelo psiconeuroendocrinoimunologico. Foram realizados tratamentos com inalacao de sinergia aromaterapeutica com ou sem exercicios respiratorios de yogaterapia, durante 12 semanas, duas vezes por semana em sessoes de uma hora. O estudo foi aprovado pelo Comite de Etica em Pesquisa da Escola de Educacao Fisica e Esporte da Universidade de Sao Paulo e foi inscrito no clinicaltrials.gov. RESULTADOS E DISCUSSAO: Os resultados da pesquisa mostraram melhora estatisticamente significante dos sintomas de climaterio para os tres grupos de intervencao. Houve diminuicao significativa do sintoma de fogacho, assim como da queixa de fogacho, sendo que o fogacho foi eliminado em cinco sujeitos. A intensidade e a frequencia de fogacho diminuiram em todos os grupos de intervencao e se mantiveram constantes no grupo controle. O tratamento proposto de aromaterapia se mostrou mais eficaz do que o tratamento proposto de yogaterapia na diminuicao do sintoma de fogacho, quando esses tratamentos eram aplicados isoladamente. A associacao das duas terapias se mostrou benefica, aumentando a eficacia e intensificando a melhora do sintoma de fogacho. Os efeitos globais dos tratamentos variaram intensamente quanto aos outros dominios de sintomas do climaterio. A melhora dos sintomas vasomotores do climaterio (fogacho e suor noturno), foi acompanhada de melhora significativa nos niveis de stress subjetivo, na qualidade do sono e da qualidade de vida em todos os grupos de intervencao. Esse trabalho tambem permitiu discussoes secundarias sobre o climaterio e as terapias, permitindo a sua compreensao a partir do modelo psiconeuroendocrinoimunologico. CONCLUSAO: Esse estudo serviu como um delineamento geral dos sintomas de climaterio, da aromaterapia e da yogaterapia a partir do modelo psiconeuroendocrinoimunologico. Os resultados apresentados nao podem ser generalizados para a populacao por causa da amostra pequena, mas podem indicar os resultados mais promissores e, com isso, esse trabalho pode ser o ponto de partida para novos estudos, auxiliando na elaboracao de questoes de pesquisa claras e metodos de pesquisa adequados para estuda-las / INTRODUCTION: Climacteric symptoms can disturb life considerably. Hot flashes are the symptom with highest incidence. Aromatherapy and yogatherapy can offer efficient treatments for climacteric symptoms, specially hot flashes, because their therapeutic mechanisms are similar to the physiological mechanism of hot flashes. MAIN OBJECTIVE: To analyze the psychological and physiological clinical outcomes of olfactory aromatherapy and breathing exercises of yogatherapy, associated or individually, on the quality of life, subjective stress levels and intensity and frequency of hot flashes in women in the climacteric period. METHODS: 85 women in the climacteric period were evaluated, 64 of these subjects participated in Phase 1 (assessment) and 34 participated in Phase 2 (treatment) . Data collection was performed at CEPE-USP. The study consists of a doubleblind, pragmatic clinical trial with restricted randomization, controlled by control and placebo groups. The intervention was based on the psychoneuroendocrineimmunological model. Treatments were performed with inhalation of an aromatherapeutic synergy developed for the study with or without yogatherapy breathing exercises for 12 weeks, twice per week in one hour sessions. The study was approved by the ethics comitte Comite de Etica em Pesquisa da Escola de Educacao Fisica e Esporte da Universidade de Sao Paulo and was registered in clinicaltrials.gov. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION: The results showed statistically significant improvement in symptoms of menopause for the three intervention groups. There was significant decrease in symptom of hot flashes, as well as complaints of hot flashes and this symptom was eliminated in five subjects. The intensity and frequency of hot flashes decreased in all intervention groups and remained constant in the control group. Aromatherapy was more effective than yogatherapy to decrease the symptoms of hot flashes, when these treatments were applied separately. The combination of the two therapies proved beneficial, increasing the effectiveness and enhancing the improvement of the symptom of hot flashes. The overall effects of the treatments varied intensely for other climacteric symptoms. The improvement of vasomotor symptoms of menopause (hot flashes and night sweats), was accompanied by a significant improvement in stress levels, quality of sleep and quality of life in all intervention groups. This research also permitted secondary discussions about climacterium and the therapies, permiting their understanding through the psychoneuroendocrineimmunological model. CONCLUSION: This study served as a general outline of climacteric symptoms, aromatherapy and yogatherapy through the psychoneuroendocrineimmunological model. The results cannot be generalized to the population because of the small sample size. However, the most promissing results can be indicated and this research can be the starting point for further studies, assisting in the preparation of clear research questions and suitable research methods to study them

Siempre se buscó diferentes formas de combatir el estrés y las enfermedades respiratorias, que muchas veces se volvieron crónicas, al punto de tener que ir varias veces al hospital. Asimismo, niveles de estrés y tensión se han incrementado hace muchos años, teniendo como principales causas, la situación económica, trabajo, tráfico y la delincuencia. Actualmente, nos toca vivir una crisis sanitaria, eso ha hecho que tres de cada diez personas presenten problemas de insomnio y otras patologías psicológicas, consecuencia del confinamiento obligatorio. Estos padecimientos, se han presentado en personas de diferentes edades, quienes están en la búsqueda de poder contrarrestarlos y combatirlos. Por eso, luego de estudiar los comportamientos de un determinado mercado, encontramos que las familias sienten que el costo de la medicina que utilizan de manera tradicional para combatir sus enfermedades es alto, y muchas veces no lo tienen a la mano o no saben cómo utilizarlo. Por ello, ven con agrado utilizar en casa la medicina alternativa, que les permita combatir el estrés y problemas respiratorios, de manera natural y se complemente con la medicina farmacológica. Es por ello, que hemos creado el proyecto de almohadas terapéuticas, con un sobre aromático que ayudan a prevenir este tipo de enfermedades respiratorias, y a su vez ayuda a combatir el estrés por medio de la relajación. A continuación, detallaremos los resultados de la investigación que muestra la viabilidad del proyecto. / Many forms of fighting stress and respiratories diseases have been sought, many times they became chronic, up to the point of going to the hospital was necessary. Moreover, levels of stress and tension have been raised since many years ago, having as main causes, the economic situation, work, traffic and crime. Nowadays, we are living a health crisis, this has made that three out of then people show insomnia problems and other phycologic pathologies, as a consecuence of mandatory confinament. These ailments, have been showed in persons from different ages, whom are in the search of minimize and combat them. Therefore, after studyng the behavior of a certain market, we found that families feel that the cost of traditional medicine for fighting diseases is high, and many times it is not available or they do not know how to use it. Thus, they like to use alternate medicine, that allow them to fight stress and respiratory problems, in a natural way and complemented with pharmacological medicine. That is why we have created the therapeutic pillow project, with an aromatic pillow case that helps to prevent this kind of respiratory diseases, and at the same time helps fighting stress by relaxation. Next, we will detail the results of the research that shows the viability of the project. / Trabajo de investigación

Falls among the elderly is a health concern affecting multiple patients annually. Hospice patients and those with multiple comorbidities are at the greatest risk of falling and sustaining injuries from falls. Aromatherapy has been used for reducing multiple symptoms as well as for decreasing falls. The practice-focused question explored whether an education program on using aromatherapy for fall prevention would increase knowledge of this intervention for an interdisciplinary group of hospice staff. The design was developed using Knowles's theory of andragogy and Bloom's taxonomy. Thirteen staff members from the same facility participated in the education program. The program was targeted to educate staff who worked with hospice patients about implementing the intervention in their practice. The program was also offered facility-wide to allow all staff the opportunity to increase their knowledge in using the intervention in their fall- reduction programs. Assessment tools including pretest, posttest, and evaluations were completed by all program participants. Using a Likert scale to calculate participant responses, results revealed an increase in knowledge gained from 15% to 60%. The participants rated the program favorably with a mean score of 4.4 to 4.6 out of 5. This program would be beneficial to hospice caregivers and a broader range of staff members including nonhospice nurses, therapists, and providers who are interested in decreasing falls in their patient population. The program would also be of interest to accrediting bodies, hospice, palliative care, oncologic, and geriatric organizations for alternative fall-reduction interventions. Reducing falls will result in a positive social change by decreasing fall-related injuries costs and improving quality at end-of-life.
