Orientador: Roberto Carlos Burini / Resumo: Em decorrência de processo fisiológico natural, mulheres menopausadas estão expostas a diminuição da massa muscular devido à redução dos níveis hormonais. Consequentemente, podem ocorrer alterações posturais. Adicionalmente, as alterações posturais estão relacionadas aos maus hábitos da postura, sedentarismo e obesidade. Com o objetivo de associar as alterações posturais com indicadores demográficos, socioeconômicos, antropométricos e aptidão física de mulheres menopausadas, foram analisados dados de 317 mulheres, no momento inicial das avaliações, nos anos de 2013 e 2014, participantes no programa de mudança do estilo de vida (Mexa-se Pró Saúde) da cidade de Botucatu/SP. Foram analisados os seguintes desvios posturais: protusão cervical, cifose torácica, lordose lombar, ângulos quadricipitais direito e esquerdo. Adotou-se o teste do qui quadrado para associação entre os desvios posturais e as variáveis demográficas, IMC e de aptidão física. Foi realizada a regressão logística considerando as demais variáveis como explanatórias. O nível de significância adotado foi de 5%. Na amostra, 62,8% eram abaixo de sessenta anos, maioria casada (63,1%), de nível médio de escolaridade (56,5%), vivendo com renda familiar inferior a 5 salários mínimos (76,3%). Cerca de metade das mulheres apresentava desvios posturais (para mais ou para menos) de protusão, cifose e lordose, enquanto essas distorções aumentaram ainda mais para os ângulos quadricipitais direito e esquerdo. Na análise logísti...

Consequently, postural alterations can happen. Additionally, these postural alterations are related to bad postural habits, sedentarism and obesity. With the objective to associate postural alterations with demographical indicators, social-economics, anthropometry and physical aptitude, data from 317 post-menopause women were analyzed. The initial evaluations made in 2013 and 2014 were from women participating in the program to change their life style (Mexa-se Pró-Saúde) in the city of Botucatu, S.P. The following postural deviations were analyzed: cervical protrusion, thoraxical kyphosis, lumbar lordosis, and the right and left quadriceps angles. The qui quadratic test was used for association between postural deviations and demographical variables, Index of Physical Mass, and physical aptitude. There was a logistic regression made to consider as explanatory all other variables. The significance level adopted was 5%. In our example, 62.8% were under 60 years of age, 63.1% were married, 56.5% had a medium school level, 76.3% lived with a family income of less than five minimum salaries. Almost half the women presented postural deviations (some more, some less) of cervical protrusion, kyphosis and lordosis, while these distortions increased more for right and left quadriceps angles. In the logistical analysis of increased pos... (Complete abstract click electronic access below) / Mestre

Neste estudo, minha proposta foi dirigir-me às pessoas portadoras de neoplasias em seu domicílio, buscando em um primeiro momento apreender o significado para os doentes de seu sendo-no-mundo com câncer, e a partir dessa compreensão, projetar novas possibilidades de cuidado a esses seres. A fenomenologia existencial de Martin Heidegger permitiu-me uma aproximação da existencialidade do doente, contemplando suas vivências com a doença. Para tal, realizei várias visitas aos sujeitos, antes e após a entrevista. A partir dos discursos e de minhas observações feitas durante as visitas, conduzi-me a uma compreensão das percepções dos pacientes sobre o estar-no-mundo com câncer. Da análise compreensiva emergiram duas categorias: A temporalidade do existir com câncer e o Ser-com-ooutro inautêntico no convívio com o câncer, as quais interpretei apropriando-me de algumas idéias de Martin Heidegger. E, finalmente, retomando o caminho percorrido, reflito sobre a assistência dispensada aos doentes e a importância de buscar novos caminhos para contemplar as reais necessidades de cuidados da pessoa com neoplasia. / In this study, my proposal was to direct myself to people who carry neoplasia at their dwellings, aiming, in the first instance, to understand the meaning of the being in world with cancer to the ill, and from this comprehension, to project new care possibilities to these beings. Martin Heidegger’s existential phenomenology allowed me to approximate myself to the ill person’s existentiality, contemplating his experience with the disease. For that, I accomplished several visits to individuals, before and after the interview. From the speeches and my observations fulfilled during the visits, I conducted myself to A comprehension of the ill perceptions of being in the world with cancer. From the comprehensive analysis, two categories emerged: The temporality of being with cancer and the inauthentic being-with the other in living together with cancer, which I interpreted adopting some Martin Heidegger’s ideas. Finally, recapturing the coursed path, I reflect on the exempt assistance to the ill and the importance of searching new to contemplate the real care necessities of the person with neoplasia.

Foi realizado um estudo transversal no município de São Lourenço da Mata a partir de uma amostra de 1417 adolescentes oriundos de escolas públicas. Os dados foram coletados por exame clínico, que utilizou os critérios do Levantamento Nacional em Saúde Bucal; aplicação de questionário para coleta de dados sociodemográficos, comportamentais e Inventário de eventos estressores na adolescência, composto por 29 questões que apresentava também uma escala tipo likert, onde o adolescente relatava o quão estressante foi cada evento que lhe ocorreu. A análise estatística foi feita em duas etapas: uma descritiva e outra analítica. Na fase analítica foi utilizado o teste qui-quadrado. Para a associação entre eventos de vida estressores e o traumatismo dentário, o cálculo foi feito através da soma dos escores e dividido pela mediana. Foi adotado o nível de significância de 5%. A seleção se deu através da lista nominal cedida por cada escola onde o primeiro de lista era selecionado e ia intercalando um sim, um não.Um total de 1154 adolescentes participou, sendo a taxa de resposta 81,5%. As perdas foram devido a transferências dos alunos, evasão escolar e recusas em participar da pesquisa. A prevalência do trauma foi de 20,2%. Houve associação significativa entre o traumatismo dentário com o sexo masculino, morar em casa com mais de oito cômodos e estar cursando o ensino médio. / The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of dental trauma in anterior teeth of schoolchildren aged 14-19 years and examine whether there is an association with socio-demographic, economic and stressful life events.A cross-sectional study in São Lourenço da Mata from a sample of 1417 adolescents from public schools.Data were collected by clinical examination, using the criteria of the National Survey on Oral Health; questionnaire to collect demographic data, behavioral and Inventory stressful events during adolescence, consisting of 29 questions that also had a Likert scale, where the teenager recounted how stressful was every event that occurred to him.Statistical analysis was done in two stages: a descriptive and other analytical.In the analytical phase we used the chi-square test.For the association between stressful life events and dental trauma, the calculation was done by adding the scores divided by the median. The level of significance of 5% was adopted.The selection was made through the nominal list given by each school where the list first was selected and was interspersing a yes, a no.A total of 1154 adolescents part, the response rate being 81.5%.Losses were due to transfers of students, truancy and refusals to participate.The prevalence of trauma was 20.2%.There was a significant association between dental trauma to the male, living at home with more than eight rooms and be in high school.

Peregrines Falco peregrinus and Gyrfalcons F. rusticolus were studied in Low and High Arctic Greenland, comparing populations within and between areas. Analyses of weather data from northwest Greenland (1979–2005) revealed a general warming trend, resulting in a lengthened breeding window for many bird species. Both falcon species depend on cliffs for nesting, and take a similar range of bird species as prey. However, Gyrfalcons lay six weeks earlier than Peregrines in Kangerlussuaq and one month earlier than Peregrines in Thule, and occupy more sheltered nest-sites. Being larger than Peregrines, Gyrfalcons also take some larger prey species. In addition, both species move to lower latitudes for the winter, but while most Gyrfalcons migrate relatively short distances, Peregrines are complete long-distance migrants to Central and South America. One Peregrine, satellite-tracked from its breeding site at 76.5° N, travelled ~12,500 km and >100° in latitude, one of the longest migrations ever documented for a raptor. Around Thule in northwest Greenland (at 76.5° N), scientists had historically documented no breeding Peregrines, but six occupied sites were discovered during this study, comprising what is probably the most northern nesting population in the world. Over the same period, breeding Gyrfalcons have apparently disappeared from southern Greenland, and may have declined in central-west Greenland (67° N). The ultimate cause of this retraction may be climate warming, but the proximate cause is probably competition from an increasing Peregrine population. Gyrfalcons tagged with satellite-received transmitters showed characteristics associated with both obligate and facultative migration. Their winter ranges varied greatly in size, with the largest, ~172,000 km2, being the biggest ever documented for a raptor. Many individuals made long movements within a winter, and some spent up to a month at sea. They may have rested on ice and fed upon seabirds. Carbon dating of stratified faecal accumulation from Gyrfalcon nests in central-west and northwest Greenland showed use of sites for up to ~2,500 and ~650 years, respectively. The age of nest sites correlated significantly with the current distance to the Greenland Ice Sheet, and probably reflects colonization patterns following glacial retreat. In central-west Greenland the ratio of Peregrine to Gyrfalcon pairs changed from 1:1 in the early 1970s to nearly 14:1 in 2005. Over this period, competition for nest sites and prey is likely to have intensified. The crucial prey for Gyrfalcons when they start nesting in early spring are resident ptarmigan, whose numbers are probably depleted by Peregrines during the months they are present. If recent trends in climate change continue, Peregrines may continue to increase in Greenland, and spread north into areas previously occupied only by Gyrfalcons. At the same time, Gyrfalcons may retreat north from many currently-occupied areas.

O tema da paternidade só recentemente tem aparecido com relativo destaque na literatura acadêmica da área da saúde, embora seja de fundamental importância para o estudo da psicodinâmica dos indivíduos, das relações familiares, da saúde do homem, da mulher, da criança e do adolescente, e outros tantos atinentes à questão de gênero, no contexto da Saúde Pública. Procuramos descrever, analisar e interpretar as experiências psíquicas vivenciadas por homens que esperavam o nascimento do primeiro filho, baseados na hipótese de que essa vivência re-atualiza conteúdos inconscientes do pai. Para tanto, entrevistamos quatro homens entre 30 e 40 anos de idade, que viviam uma união estável e que estavam acompanhando a gravidez de suas mulheres. Trata-se de uma investigação na confluência da psicologia e da saúde pública de natureza compreensiva e de corte qualitativo. Para efeito da coleta de dados foi utilizado o modelo clínico-qualitativo. Para efeito de análise, a partir dos elementos produzidos pelos sujeitos da pesquisa estabelecemos 3 categorias: patrimônio afetivo, responsabilidade e desejo inconsciente. Os resultados encontrados indicam intensa mobilização afetiva revelada por meio de estados apreensivos diante da paternidade, com destaque para as dúvidas quanto à capacidade pessoal que o sentido de responsabilidade desperta, a identificações transgeracionais, conflitos relativos ao desejo manifesto e desejo inconsciente, sentimentos de frustração diante do desvio do investimento afetivo da mãe deslocado para a criança, sentimentos messiânicos, no sentido de que no futuro a paternidade possibilitará um estado de intensa satisfação, salvando o sujeito de suas angústias atuais e, que a qualidade da relação entre pai e filho está intimamente associada ao patrimônio afetivo do pai. Concluímos que a paternidade surge, para alguns dos sujeitos de nossa investigação, como um conceito idealizado e nessa medida ela transcende a natureza humana com suas limitações, que a capacidade para ser responsável está profundamente vinculada ao patrimônio afetivo de cada sujeito e, que o desejo manifesto de ser pai pode não ser harmônico com seus desejos latentes, o que implica dificuldades no desempenho da paternidade / The issue of paternity only recently has appeared to focus on the academic literature on health care, while of fundamental importance for the study of the psychodynamics of individuals, family relations, health of men, women, children and adolescents, and many others relating to gender in the context of Public Health. We seek to describe, analyze and interpret the psychic experiences experienced by men who awaited the birth of first child, based on the assumption that this experience re-update unconscious contents of his father. To this end, we interviewed four men between 30 and 40 years of age, who lived a stable and who were following the pregnancy of their wives. It is a confluence of research in psychology and public health of a comprehensive and cutting quality. For purposes of data collection was used to model clinical quality. For purposes of analysis, from the evidence produced by the subjects established 3 categories: affective equity, responsibility and unconscious desire. The results indicate intense affective mobilization revealed by states apprehensive before parenthood, focusing on the doubts about the ability that the personal sense of responsibility awakened, the transgenerational identifications, conflicts relating to the manifest desire and unconscious desire, feelings of frustration diversion of investment affective mother moved the child\'s, feelings messianic, in the sense that future paternity allow a state of intense satisfaction, saving the subject from its current troubles and that the quality of the relationship between parent and child is closely associated with the emotional heritage of his father. We conclude that the paternity appears to some of the subjects of our investigation, as an idealized concept and as such it transcends human nature with its limitations, the ability to be responsible is deeply linked to the emotional heritage of each subject and the desire manifest a father can not be harmonious with their latent desires, which implies difficulties in the performance of fatherhood

In this thesis I am verifying the significance and viability of the revitalising programme using yoga exercises, applied to the group of seniors women attending the {\clq}qSokol`` organization. In the theoretical part, I deal with the issue of the senior age and troubles connected with it. The theoretical part is related to the locomotive activity, regimen, the issue of female and male change of life. The practical part of thesis offers an elaborated intervention programme consisting of yoga exercises that was applied to the group of thirty seniors, women and men aged 50 {--} 76 years, coming from České Budějovice and its vicinity. The intervention programme ran from 4.1.2010 do 31.3.2010. 12 ninety {--} minute lectures were accomplished, during which I was practising easy yoga exercises with the seniors. The {\clq}qSokol`` gymnasium in České Budějovice was used for practising. Before and after the programme the senior were tested using simple questionnaires, individual interviews and observation. In the summary of my thesis were prove the results gained by comparison of the results from questionnaire, individual interviews observation and motoric test. We found out positive changes in attitudes to motoric activities and to healthy lifestyle. To sum it up, we can say, that yoga programme is suitable for exercises in ČOS.

Bakgrund: Den äldre befolkningen ökar ständigt och antalet äldre personer överstiger redan två miljoner i Sverige, vilket innebär ökat vårdbehov. Att flytta till särskilt boende kan vara svår att acceptera för den äldre personen, även för anhöriga som oftast känner osäkerhet för vem som bär ansvaret för deras närstående. Sjuksköterskor upplever att det kan göras mer för att förbättra omvårdnaden av den äldre personen. På grund av tidsbrist är det svårare att skapa en vårdande relation. Problem: Det finns ett bristande engagemang från sjuksköterskor till att utföra en personcentrerad omvårdnad samt en tidsbrist för att beakta den äldre personens unika behov. Syfte: Beskriva äldre personers erfarenheter i samband med flytt till särskilt boende. Metod: En systematisk litteraturstudie med beskrivande syntes. Resultat: Anpassning till ny boendemiljö kunde vara svårt för den äldre personen. Vad som underlättade för trivsel var när de fick ta beslutet att flytta själva. Trots det fanns det omkringgivande aspekter som försvårade för den äldre personens trivsel på boendet, bland annat ökat vårdbehov. Slutsats: För att förbättra äldre personernas erfarenheter kan resurser sättas in före flytten för att säkra att deras synpunkter och behov tas hänsyn till.

The doctoral research revolves around a comparative study of timber modern methods of construction for low-rise, residential buildings in Scotland. The building techniques studied involve both timber-frame panel construction (open-panel and closed-panel systems and structural insulated panels) and massive-timber construction (cross-laminated and nail-laminated timber panels). A non-timber technique is also included in the study: more traditional, load-bearing masonry (blockwork). These different building techniques have been analysed from two complementary aspects: environmental impacts and thermal performance. The environmental study is based on the life-cycle assessment methodology and embraces various aspects: environmental impacts (e.g., climate change, acidification, eutrophication, ozone depletion, etc.), consumption of energy (renewable and non-renewable resources) and production of waste (from non-hazardous to radioactive). The assessment takes a cradle-to-gate approach and, in its structure and method, is informed by the current recommendations of the international standards in the field (i.e., ISO 14040 series). Various environmental trade-offs between construction methods have been identified. In terms of global-warming potential (excluding biogenic carbon sequestration), results suggest that timber-frame buildings show a better performance than masonry buildings; this is particularly true for the open-panel system, which emits about 10% less carbon than the masonry counterpart. Massive-timber buildings tend to cause more carbon emissions than masonry ones. In terms of consumption of non-renewable primary energy, timber buildings do not generally show significant advantages with respect to blockwork-based masonry. In particular, structural-insulated panel systems tend to show very high energy requirements. Timber-based buildings show a tendency to cause increased acidification, eutrophication and creation of low ozone than their masonry counterpart. The level of offsite fabrication that is employed for the erection of the buildings plays an important role in the magnitude of most environmental impacts, which show an average decrease between 5% and 10% when some of the operations are shifted from the construction site to the factory. v The thermal study investigates the performance of the building envelope, and, in particular, of external walls, by means of tests whereby the thermal behaviour of a sample of walls (of full-size section) has been observed and measured over time. On the outside, the walls were exposed to real, natural weather variations throughout the summer. The study especially focuses on the time-dependent response of three different walling systems (which results from their individual cross-sectional arrangements of building components and the associated combination of heat-storage capacity and thermal resistance): a timber-framed wall, a cross-laminated-timber wall and a masonry wall. Thus, the main goal of the study was to characterise the thermal-inertia parameters of these walls. This type of thermal behaviour is related to the repercussions of global climate change at UK level, especially in terms of increase in solar irradiance and temperature, which requires an adaptation of the building-envelope such that it can perform well both during wintertime and summertime, by providing maximum indoor comfort with minimum economic and environmental costs from the construction and operation of buildings. The timber-framed wall possesses the greatest capacity to slow down the propagation of temperature waves from the outer surface to the inner surface (time lag), whereas the masonry wall performs best with respect to reducing the amplitude of temperature oscillation on the inner surface (decrement factor). The cross-laminated-timber wall exhibits intermediate values of both time lag and decrement factor, relative to the other two walls. Both the thermal and life-cycle assessment of the construction alternatives aim at assisting the design and decision-making process in the residential field and at suggesting areas that need to be addressed and improved, towards a coherent evolution of the building techniques included in this study and a step forward in the realisation of sustainable, low-rise dwellings.
