There is little intrinsic stability due to the articulate l cation. In this manner, it is an articulation that is susceptible to lesions these being the result of sedentarism, excessive physical activity or biomechanics and biochemical alterations. The objective is to relate the presence of the Patellofemoral Syndrome (PFS) and the level of physical activity. The alterations generated by the pathology being studied were collected by radiology analysis and a physical evaluation of the patients. The Lysholm Scale and the International Questionnaire for Physical Activity were used respectively for the collection of knee functions and the level of physical activity. A sample of the study showed 50 individuals of both sexes, with an average age of 39.96  14.81 years. All had medical diagnosis of PFS. The incidence of the syndrome was of 2 women for 1 man.PFS does not compromise health in general of the individuals but it affects the execution of physical activities and activities of the daily life. The greater energetic expenditure observed, in the sampling, was in physical activities related to work, followed by household activities (women), exercises, sport, recreation and leisure (men) and means of transportations. It s established that practioners of physical activities have a better knee function development compared to those that do not practice. Body overweight diminishes the function of the knee. Excessive time spent seating, alterations of the biomechanical lower members and biomechanical articulations supposed to contribute to trigger the PFS off. / Funcionalmente, o joelho suporta forças exercidas pelos movimentos corporais, estabiliza e promove amplitude de movimento. Há pouca estabilidade intrínseca, em decorrência da localização articular. Desta forma, é uma articulação bastante susceptível a lesões, sendo estas geradas pelo sedentarismo, excesso de atividade física ou alterações biomecânicas e bioquímicas. Objetiva-se relacionar a presença da Síndrome Patelofemoral (SPF) e o nível de atividade física. As alterações geradas pela patologia em estudo foram coletadas pela análise radiológica e avaliação física dos pacientes. Fez-se uso da Escala de Lysholm e do Questionário Internacional de Atividade Física, respectivamente, para a coleta da função do joelho e do nível de atividade física. A amostra do estudo constou com 50 indivíduos, ambos os sexos, com média de idade de 39,96 ? 14,81 anos. Todos com diagnóstico médico de SPF. O acometimento pela síndrome foi de 2 mulheres para 1 homem. A SPF não compromete a saúde geral dos indivíduos, porém, afeta a execução das atividades físicas e atividades de vida diária. O maior dispêndio energético observado, na amostra, foi nas atividades físicas executadas como parte do trabalho, seguido por atividades físicas em casa (mulheres), exercício, esporte, recreação e lazer (homens), meio de transporte. Constata-se que praticantes de atividade física possuem melhor desempenho funcional do joelho quando comparados a não praticantes. Sobrepeso corporal reduz a função do joelho. Excesso de tempo na posição sentada, alterações biomecânicas dos membros inferiores e articulares, são indicativos de contribuírem para desencadeamento da SPF.

Orientador: Suraya Cristina Darido / Banca: Silvana Venâncio / Banca: Gisele Maria Schwartz / Resumo: As Atividades Físicas de Aventura são uma realidade, fruto de um grande desenvolvimento ocorrido principalmente nas duas últimas décadas. São eventos relacionados ao Surf, Skate, Ralis, Corridas de Aventura, entre muitos outros, vivenciados em várias faixas etárias. Além disso, As Atividades Físicas de Aventura estão sendo largamente difundidas em documentários sobre expedições e reportagens ecoturísticas que envolvem várias de suas modalidades, tais como: Rapel, Tirolesa, Corrida de Aventura, Trekking ou, ainda, outras atividades chamadas esportes radicais. Essas práticas têm atraído a prática e o consumo de grande parte dos jovens e adultos brasileiros, chegando a competir, em preferência, com alguns esportes tradicionais do país. É preciso incentivar a prática das Atividades Físicas de Aventura (A.F.A.) também na escola é, o que significa estreitar relações com as discussões sobre preservação ambiental e desenvolvimento sustentável. Assim, o objetivo desse estudo foi arrolar uma série de atividades relacionadas às Atividades Físicas de Aventura possíveis de serem realizadas na escola, apontando as três dimensões do conteúdo. Explorar e descrever essas atividades como uma possibilidade pedagógica real na escola, capaz de fazer parte do currículo comum da Educação Física como valor de conhecimento, tanto quanto qualquer dos conteúdos tradicionais da área. Foram apresentadas, enquanto possibilidades pedagógicas de atividades de aventura nas três dimensões dos conteúdos (Procedimental, Conceitual e Atitudinal), os seguintes temas; - Corridas de Orientação, Trekking ou Enduro à pé; - Montanhismo; - Atividades sobre Rodas; - Atividades Físicas de Aventura Aquáticas. Os resultados do estudo indicam que é possível inserir A.F.A. na escola; que essas atividades são significativas pedagogicamente e são bem aceitas pela comunidade escolar. / Abstract: Adventure Physical Activities are a reality today, as a result of a great development occurred mainly in the last two decades. They consist of events related to Surf, Skate, Ralis, Adventure Races, among others, experienced in several different age groups. Moreover, Adventure Physical Activities have been largely broadcast in documentaries about expeditions and eco-touristic reports involving several modalities, such as Rapel, Tirolesa, Adventure Race, Trekking and other activities called extreme sports. These activities have attracted the attention and participation of a great number of Brazilian teenagers and young adults, and they have been even competing in preference with some traditional sports in the country. It's necessary to encourage the practice of the Adventure Physical Activities also in the schools, what would mean to make closer relations with the discussions on environment conservation and sustainable development. So, the objective of this research was to list a range of activities related to the Adventure Physical Activities which can be practiced at school, pointing out the three dimensions of the content. To explore and describe these activities as a real pedagogical possibility at school, capable of being part of the common curriculum of Physical Education as a knowledge value, as much as any of the traditional contents of the area. The following themes were presented as pedagogical possibilities of adventure activities in the three dimensions of content (Procedural, Conceptive, and Behavioral): Orienteering, Trekking, or Enduro a pé, Mountain Climbing, Activities on Wheels, Adventure Physical Activities in Water. The results of the research indicate that it is possible to introduce Adventure Physical Activities in schools, that these activities are meaningful from a pedagogical standpoint, and well accepted by the school community. / Mestre

Métodos: 689 idosos (470 mulheres), 65 a 90 anos (M = 72,28 + 5,27), renda familiar média = 4,72 + 5,27 salários mínimos, sem déficit cognitivo sugestivo de demência. Foram feitas medidas de força de preensão e velocidade da marcha e levantados autorrelatos de fadiga, perda > 4,5 kg ou 5% do peso corporal no ano anterior, número de doenças crônicas e tempo médio diário dedicado a exercícios físicos e esportes ativos, trabalhos domésticos, trabalho fora de casa, lazer passivo e sono diurnos. Resultados: 15,9% perderam peso, 17,13% relataram fadiga, 16,06% pontuaram abaixo do 1º quintil em força de preensão, 15,87% pontuaram acima do percentil 80 em tempo de marcha; 43,02% tinham 3 ou + doenças crônicas e 11,9%, nenhuma. Fadiga e comorbidades foram significantemente mais comuns entre mulheres e idosos jovens, que gastavam mais tempo diário em atividades domésticas e de lazer passivo; os homens e os com maior renda gastavam mais tempo em exercícios físicos; os homens, em descanso diurno. Análises de covariância ajustadas por gênero, idade e renda mostraram relações entre fadiga e maior tempo dedicado a descanso diurno; baixa força de preensão e lentidão da marcha e menos tempo em atividades domésticas. Conclusões: O uso do tempo por idosos é determinado por escolhas e motivações pessoais, papéis de gênero e recursos sociais e ecológicos, em interação com saúde e competência comportamental / Abstract: Objective: This study was aimed to analyze indicators of frailty, comorbidities, and time spent in activities of daily living in a probabilistic sample of community dwelling-elderly. Methods: 689 aged persons (470 women), aged 65 to 90 (M = 72,28 + 5,27), mean monthly family income of 4,72 minimum wages (+ 5,27), without cognitive deficit suggestive of dementia were submited to measures of grip strenght and walking speed, and interviewed about fatigue, unintentional weight loss > 4,5 kg or 5% of body weight in the last year, comorbidities and daily time dedicated to physical exercises, housework, paid or voluntary work done outside home, passive leisure, and daytime sleeping/resting. Results: 15,9% reported unintentional weight loss, 17,13% had fatigue, 16,06% scored below the 1st quintile of grip strenght, and 15,87% scored above percentile 80 of walking time; 43,02% had 3 or more diseases and 11,9% had none. Fatigue and comorbidities were significantly more common among women and the youngest olds, which spent more time performing housework and passive leisure activities; males and those with the highest levels of income spent more time doing physical exercises; male participants spent more daily time sleeping/resting. Covariance analysis adjusted by gender, age and income showed statisticaly significant relations between fatigue and more daytime spent in sleeping/resting; low grip strenght and low walking speed with less time dedicated to housework. Conclusions: Time use by elderly people are determined by personal choices and motivations, gender roles, and social and ecological resources, which interact with health conditions and behavioral competence / Mestrado / Mestre em Gerontologia

Em 2010, foi demonstrado que o método de Pilates pode aumentar a força voluntária máxima dos músculos perineais. O objetivo foi avaliar a prevalência de incontinência urinária de esforço em mulheres praticantes de atividades físicas em academias e avaliar quais fatores estão associados com a prevalência de incontinência urinária de esforço. MATERIAIS E MÉTODOS: Foi realizado um estudo quantitativo, transversal, do tipo prevalência, avaliando as mulheres que praticam atividade física regularmente em academias registradas na Câmara Municipal de Juiz de Fora. Este estudo foi realizado após aprovação pelo Comitê de Ética em Pesquisa "parecer no. 131 401" (18 / outubro / 2012). Foram sorteados aleatoriamente 20 academias e realizou-se uma recolha proporcional. Eram elegíveis para o estudo as mulheres com mais de 18 anos de idade, que praticam atividades físicas com à pelo menos três meses, com uma frequência semanal superior a duas vezes por semana durante 50 minutos. Para avaliar a incontinência urinária de esforço foi aplicado o questionário Internacional para consulta sobre incontinência urinária – versão curta. O tamanho mínimo da amostra calculado foi de 362 mulheres. A importância das associações foi avaliada com o teste do qui-quadrado. RESULTADOS: A prevalência de incontinência urinária de esforço foi de 15,2%. Na análise de regressão logística, a presença de incontinência urinária de esforço foi associada com Pilates (OR 0,39; IC 0,17-0,90), Jump Fit exercício (OR 2,11; IC 1,05-4,32), o parto vaginal (OR 1,94; IC 1,02-3,59) e dor lombar (OR 4,1, IC 1,90 a 8,83). CONCLUSÕES: O único fator de proteção associado à incontinência urinária de esforço foi o Método Pilates. Além disso, a atividade física Jump Fit, dor lombar e o parto vaginal aumentaram as chances de ter incontinência urinária de esforço. / INTRODUCTION: The use of preventive tools for urinary incontinence treatment is paramount importance. In 2010, it was demonstrated that Pilates Method can get an improvement in maximal voluntary strength of the perineal muscles. The aim was to assess the prevalence of stress urinary incontinence in women who practice physical activities in gyms and evaluate which factors are associated with the prevalence of stress urinary incontinence. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A quantitative, cross-sectional, prevalence-type study was performed, assessing women who practice regular physical activity in gyms registered at the City Hall of our city. This study was conducted after approval by the Research Ethics Committee "opinion no. 131 401" (18/Oct./2012). Were drawn 20 gyms randomly and held a proportionate collection. Were eligible for the study women with greater than 18 years of age who have been working out in gyms for at least three months, with a weekly frequency greater than to twice a week for 50 minutes. To assess stress urinary incontinence was applied the International consultation on incontinence questionnaire-short form. The minimum sample size calculated was 362 women. The significance of associations was assessed with chi-square test. RESULTS: The prevalence of stress urinary incontinence was 15.2%. In logistic regression analysis, the presence of stress urinary incontinence was associated with Pilates (OR 0.39, CI 0.17 to 0.90), Jump Fit exercise (OR 2.11, CI 1.05 to 4.32), vaginal delivery (OR 1.94, CI 1.02 to 3.59) and lower back pain (OR 4.1, CI 1,90 to 8.83). CONCLUSIONS: The only protective factor associated with stress urinary incontinence was the Pilates Method. In addition, jump fit exercise, lower back pain and vaginal delivery increases the chances to have stress urinary incontinence.

Studiens syfte är att undersöka hur förskollärare arbetar med och skapar förutsättningar för barns fysiska aktivitet och rörelse i den dagliga verksamheten. Forskning visar att barn blir alltmer stillasittande och inaktiva då förskolans verksamhet blir med inriktad på undervisning samt ett ökat införande av digitala verktyg. Detta kan leda till att barnfetman och psykisk ohälsa ökar. Förskollärarna har en alltmer viktig roll att ge barn förutsättningar för fysisk aktivitet och rörelse, samt att skapa ett intresse hos barn att vilja röra sig och att förstå vikten av god hälsa i framtiden. Genom semistrukturerade intervjuer med 10 av 11 utfrågade förskollärare visar resultatet att förskollärares förhållningssätt har stor betydelse och att deras tidigare kunskaper om fysisk aktivitet och rörelse är bristande. Eftersom styrdokumenten kan tolkas på olika sätt ser arbetet med barns fysiska aktivitet och rörelse olika ut i förskolor. Då fokus i styrdokumenten ofta hamnar mer på undervisningen, så faller den fysiska aktiviteten och rörelsen bort i förmån för de teoretiska ämnena som till exempel språk och matematik. Resultatet visar att det krävs mer forskning inom området samt mer kunskap och fokus om ämnet i förskollärarutbildningen.

Title: Inclusion of a pupil with cystic fibrosis in physical education Objectives: The aim of this thesis was to point out through case studies the possibilities of inclusion of a pupil with cystic fibrosis in physical education and to investigate the influence of physical applied activities on pupil's physical abilities. Part of the research was also working with a girl in physical education classes. Methods: Due to the uniqueness of the disease, was chosen for this thesis the method of a case study of schoolgirl aged 12 with CF. Methods of data collection included interviews with pupil's mother, teacher and teaching assistant, questionnaires, observations and MABC-2 test set. Results: We found out, that the inclusion of a pupil with CF is possible, but it is necessary to have prepared alternative methods and modification of physical activities in order not to damage the health of the individual. The individual approach to the student in class also proved to be effective. The research shows that physical activities as a part of physical education have a positive effect on some motor skills of a pupil with CF. Keywords: integration, cystic fibrosis, joint education, primary school, physical activities

This thesis deals with the health promotion policy of school-age children in the area of nutrition and physical activities, and identifies the most serious problems related to this field of health policy. It also focuses on the main problems associated with the lifestyle of school-age children in the Czech Republic. Proper eating habits and good relationship to physical activities are formed from an early age, so it is necessary in the terms of health promotion to focus mainly on children and their education to a healthy lifestyle. This creates possibilities to achieve an overall improvement in the health status of population. To fulfill the goals of this thesis, secondary data from documents that are related to the observed problem were used together with primary data from qualitative research, which was conducted by expert interviews. School-age children in the Czech Republic do not comply with the dietary guidelines or recommendations for physical activity proccesed by WHO. A related problem is obesity, which is caused by these factors. Health promotion policy responds to these problems by projects and health promotion programmes. Inadequate infrastructure, which does not allow its national exposure, insufficient funding, staffing and lack of skilled workers in this field were identified as the...

Au regard de la littérature, il est bien identifié que l’obésité et le vieillissement altèrent les capacités de l’équilibre et de la marche des individus, altérations potentiellement associées à une plus grande difficulté à réaliser les activités de la vie quotidienne. Nous pouvons alors nous interroger sur les effets combinés du vieillissement et de l’obésité sur les capacités de l’équilibre et de la marche. Dans ce travail de thèse, nous avons, tout d’abord, montré que l’obésité présente une contrainte additionnelle sur les modifications des capacités de l’équilibre et de la marche liées au vieillissement, favorisant l’augmentation des limitations fonctionnelles chez une population âgée obèse. Ensuite, nous avons rapporté qu’un programme d’activités physiques adaptées basé sur des exercices d’équilibre, de renforcement musculaire et de motricité était une modalité de prise en charge efficace chez les personnes âgées obèses, permettant d’améliorer leurs capacités neuromusculaires au niveau des membres inférieurs, et par conséquent, leurs capacités d’équilibre et de la marche. / It is well recognized that obesity and aging impair individuals balance and walking abilities. These alterations are potentially associated with greater difficulty in performing activities of daily life. However, the magnitude of the effects on functional abilities of the combination of aging and obesity, as observed in obese elderly,requires further investigations. Through this thesis work, we, first of all, showed that obesity presents an additional constraint to age throughout the process of stabilization and walking in elderly. This aggravates the functional limitations in the obese elderly in activities of daily life. Then, we reported that an adapted physical activities program based on balance, muscular reinforcement and mobility exercices optimize balance and walking abilities of obese elderly in extreme situations likely by developing their neuromuscular capacities in the lower limbs.

Bakgrund: I ett globalt perspektiv är förvärvade hjärnskador en stor utmaning för samhället i form av kostnader för sjukvård och rehabilitering. Personer som drabbas av förvärvad hjärnskada behöver stöd för att själva ta ansvar för sin träning och hitta meningsfulla aktiviteter tillsammans med andra som en del av en hälsosam livsstil. Syfte: Syftet med studien är att beskriva erfarenheter av aktivitet och delaktighet hos personer som drabbats av förvärvad hjärnskada som skildras i en kollektivt skriven blogg. Metod: Materialet i den aktuella studien utgörs av bloggtexter som skrevs mellan åren 2017 och 2019 inom ramen för ett samarbetsprojekt och låg öppet publicerade på internet. Bloggen skrevs av en grupp personer med förvärvad hjärnskada. Texterna analyserades med Malteruds systematiska textkondensering. Resultat: Analysen resulterade i tre kategorier; Vikten av att hålla igång; som beskriver upplevelser och erfarenheter av fysisk aktivitet och träning efter hjärnskadan och hur aktiviteterna behövde anpassas efter de nya förutsättningarna. Att träna lite hela tiden i vardagen; som beskriver deltagarnas sätt att träna medvetet i alla aktiviteter som tillhör vardagslivet, att träna lite hela tiden. Hur man närmar sig samhället på nytt; som beskriver erfarenheter gällande delaktighet i samhällets olika delar och vikten av stöttning från människor i samma situation. Slutsats: Resultatet indikerar att fysisk aktivitet, träning och delaktighet i samhället kan vara viktigt efter en förvärvad hjärnskada. Vidare kan det vara betydelsefullt att dela erfarenheter med andra, få stöd av andra och lära sig av andras erfarenheter. Det är även viktigt att samhällsfunktioner och miljöer i det offentliga rummet är tillgängliga för alla. / Background: In a global perspective, acquired brain injury is a major challenge for society in the form of costs for healthcare and rehabilitation. People with acquired brain injury need support in order to take responsibility for their own health and incorporate exercise as part of a healthy lifestyle. Aim: The aim of the study was to describe the experiences of people with acquired brain injury, with regards to activity and participation, as depicted in a collectively written blog. Methods: The material in the current study consists of collectively written blog texts written between 2017 and 2019 by people with acquired brain injury. The material included 35 blog texts and was part of a larger research study. The texts were analyzed with Malterud's Systematic Text Condensation. Results: The analysis resulted in three categories; The importance of being physical active; describes experiences of physical activity and training after brain injury and how the activities needed to be adapted to the new conditions. To exercise a little all the time in everyday life; describes the participants' way of exercising consciously in all activities included in everyday life, to exercise a little all the time. How to re-approach society; describes experiences regarding participation in the various parts of society and the importance of support from people in the same situation. Conclusions: The results indicate that physical activity, training and participation in society are important after brain injury. Furthermore it is meaningful to share experiences with, get support from and learn from other people with acquired brain injury. It is also important that community functions and environments in public spaces are available for everyone.
