ABSTRACT

Objective: to understand how the Covid-19 pandemic has interfered with the self-care and lifestyle of university students. Method: exploratory descriptive research carried out with nursing students from four higher education institutions in the state of Paraná. Data were collected using an electronic form available on Google Forms; those of a quantitative nature were subjected to descriptive and inferential analysis, and the answers to open questions analyzed using the Iramuteq Software. Results: 58 nursing students participated in the study, the majority of whom were female (82.76%), with an average age of 22 years, the majority lived with their family. Statistically significant association was observed between Age and "Made friends during remote classes"; Sex and "substance use"; and Year of graduation with eating habits and "Made friends during remote classes". Conclusion: the pandemic especially influenced eating habits, self-care, sleep quality and alcohol and tobacco use among nursing students.

ABSTRACT

Background: Cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk factors such as sedentary behaviour, decreased physical activity (PA), and low cardiorespiratory fitness lead to an increased and accelerated risk of cardiovascular disease and mortality. Medical students tend to adopt sedentary lifestyles due to a demanding curriculum. This may have a negative effect on CVD risk factors and cardiorespiratory fitness levels of medical students. Objectives: To compare physical activity and cardiorespiratory fitness levels in a cohort of third- and fifth-year undergraduate medical students in a South African university. Methods: Data from 123 third-year and 139 fifth-year medical students in the Graduate Entry Medical Programme (GEMP) at the Faculty of Health Sciences, University of the Witwatersrand, were collected. Measurements included CVD risk factors, height, weight, blood pressure, waist circumference, cardiorespiratory fitness, physical activity vital signs and pre-participation health screening questionnaires. Descriptive statistics were presented as mean ± standard deviation or median [interquartile range] depending whether the data were normally distributed or not. Results: Both groups had low cardiorespiratory fitness when compared to norm values (GEMPI VO2 peak was 29.1 ± 5.9 ml.kg1.min-1 and GEMPIII VO2 peak was 30.0[11.0] ml.kg-1.min-1). Most participants did not meet WHO physical activity requirements (GEMP I: 72%; GEMP III: 78%). There were significant differences in BMI (p=0.046), diastolic blood pressure (p=0.034) and VO2 peak (p=0.00001) between students meeting and not meeting WHO physical activity requirements (p<0.05). Conclusion: Third- and fifth-year medical students at a South African university fail to meet recommended WHO physical activity levels and are below cardiorespiratory fitness norms. Therefore, medical institutions should promote and implement targeted physical activity interventions to reduce the prevalence of low fitness levels and the associated health hazards among their students.

ABSTRACT

Introducción. El confinamiento debido a COVID-19 influenció el estilo de vida de la población mundial. En México, se ha reportado que esta influencia fue mayoritariamente negativa. Sin embargo, existen muy pocos estudios que reporten el impacto en poblaciones de alta marginación como el estado de Oaxaca, donde ya antes de la pandemia presentaban altas tasas de malnutrición. Objetivo. Analizar los efectos del aislamiento por COVID-19 sobre el consumo alimentario de la población del sur de México. Materiales y métodos. Estudio longitudinal, con una muestra (autoseleccionada) de adultos reclutados mediante un link a una página en LimeSurvey. El primer requisito fue el consentimiento informado. Se preguntaron datos sociodemográficos y se aplicó un cuestionario cuantitativo de frecuencia de consumo de alimentos (raciones/día) recomendables (carnes, cereales, leguminosas, verduras, frutas) y no recomendables (gaseosas, superfluos, azúcares y bebidas alcohólicas). Los participantes respondieron la encuesta al comienzo de la reclusión (marzo'2019) y en enero de 2021. Los datos se analizaron con SPSS'23. Resultados. Se observó un descenso significativo en el consumo de raciones/día (p<0.001) de carnes, cereales, leguminosas y verduras y por otro lado, el consumo de todos los alimentos no recomendables analizados (gaseosas, superfluos, azúcares y bebidas alcohólicas) aumentó significativamente (p<0.001). Conclusiones. Durante el aislamiento por COVID-19 la población oaxaqueña aumentó el consumo de alimentos no saludables y disminuyó el de saludables. Considerando que la situación de salud previa a la pandemia ya no era la esperada, estos resultados aportan un panorama alarmante que requiere intervención(AU)


Introduction. The isolation due to COVID-19 influenced the lifestyle of the world population. In Mexico, it was reported that this influence was mostly negative. However, there are few studies that report this impact in highly marginalized populations such as Oaxaca, which before the pandemic already had high malnutrition figures. Objective. To analyze the effects of isolation by COVID-19 on the food consumption of the population of southern Mexico. Materials and methods. Longitudinal study, with a (self-selected) sample of adults recruited through a link to a page in LimeSurvey. The first requirement was informed consent. Sociodemographic data were recolected and a quantitative questionnaire was applied on the frequency of consumption of recommended (meat, cereals, legumes, vegetables, fruits) and non-recommended (soda, miscellaneous group, sugar, and alcoholic beverages) foods (servings/ day). The participants answered the survey at the beginning of the isolation (March'2019) and in January 2021. The data was analyzed with SPSS'23. Results. A significant decrease was observed in the consumption of servings/day (p<0.001) of meat, cereals, legumes and vegetables and on the other hand, the consumption of all non-recommended foods analyzed (soda, miscellaneous group, sugar and alcoholic beverages) increased exponentially (p<0.001). Conclusions. During the isolation due to COVID-19, the Oaxacan population increased the consumption of unhealthy foods and decreased that of healthy ones. Considering that the health situation prior to the pandemic was no longer as expected, these results provide an alarming panorama that requires intervention(AU)

ABSTRACT

Introduction: Serum vitamin D levels depend on sunlight, diet, and other factors. Objective: We aimed to determine serum vitamin D levels and evaluate their relationship with anthropometric indicators and lifestyle habits in apparently healthy volunteers. Materials and Methods: In this cross-sectional study (n=75), socio-demographic, anthropometric, and lifestyle habit-related data were collected. Serum vitamin D levels were determined with high performance liquid chromatography, food intake was measured by semiquantitative frequency and nutritional status was assessed by anthropometry. Chi-square test and also principal component analysis were used to analyze the relationship between some variables and vitamin D status. Spearman's test was used to determine correlations between quantitative variables. Results: 73% were women and 61% belonged to medium socio-economic level. Median vitamin D intake was 137 (83.1­227.3) IU/day. Based on body mass index (BMI), 44% individuals had overweight/obesity. The 68% exhibited deficient/insufficient vitamin D levels (Hypovitaminosis D). BMI classification and waist circumference (CW) were not related with vitamin D status; however, activities with higher sun exposure were highly related (p = 0.013). Sun exposure time explained variation in component 2 (16.60%), where most of the individuals with normal level were grouped. Sun exposure time was positively correlated with vitamin D status (r = 0.263; p = 0.023). Discussion: Excess weight and abdominal obesity are not always associated with hypovitaminosis D. Conclusions: The majority of individuals showed hypovitaminosis D but their status was not related with anthropometric indicators. A Sun exposure time was the only factor positively correlated with vitamin D status.


Introducción: Los niveles séricos de vitamina D dependen de la luz solar, la dieta y otros factores. Objetivo: Nuestro objetivo fue determinar los niveles séricos de vitamina D y evaluar su relación con indicadores antropométricos y estilos de vida en voluntarios aparentemente sanos. Materiales y métodos: En este estudio trasversal (n=75) se recogieron datos sociodemográficos, antropométricos y aquellos relacionados con hábitos y estilos de vida. La vitamina D se determinó por cromatografía liquida de alta eficiencia; la ingesta de alimentos, mediante frecuencia semicuantitativa, y el estado nutricional por antropometría. Para analizar la relación entre algunas variables y el estado de la vitamina D se usó la prueba de Chi cuadrado y también el análisis de componentes principales. Se empleó la prueba de Spearman para determinar la correlación entre variables cuantitativas. Resultados: El 73% eran mujeres y el 61% pertenecían a un estrato socioeconómico medio. La mediana de la ingesta de vitamina D fue de 137 (83,1­227,3) UI/día. Según el índice de masa corporal (IMC), el 44% de los individuos tenían sobrepeso/obesidad. El 68% mostro deficiencia/insuficiencia de vitamina D (hipovitaminosis D). La clasificación del IMC y la circunferencia abdominal no se relacionaron con el estado de la vitamina D; sin embargo, las actividades con una mayor exposición solar estuvieron altamente relacionadas (p=0,013). El tiempo de exposición solar explico la variación en el componente 2 (16,60%) donde se agruparon la mayoría de los individuos con niveles normales. El tiempo de exposición solar tuvo una correlación positiva con el estado de la vitamina D (r = 0,263; p = 0,023). Discusión: El exceso de peso y la obesidad abdominal no siempre se relacionan con la hipovitaminosis D. Conclusiones: La mayoría de los individuos presentaron hipovitaminosis D, pero su estado no se relacionó con los indicadores antropométricos. El tiempo de exposición al sol fue el único factor que se correlaciono positivamente con el estado de la vitamina D.

O tempo de exposição ao sol foi positivamente correlacionado com o status de vitamina D (r = 0,263; p = 0,023). Discussão: O excesso de peso e a obesidade abdominal nem sempre estão associados com a hipovitaminose D. Conclusões: A maioria dos indivíduos apresentou hipovitaminose D, mas seu status não foi relacionado com indicadores antropométricos. O tempo de exposição ao sol foi o único fator positivamente correlacionado com o status da vitamina D.

ABSTRACT

Objective: to evaluate the lifestyle and eating habits of bank workers in Mozambique. Method: a cross-sectional study with a quantitative approach, with 32 employees from three bank branches, selected through convenience sampling, in 2021. A food frequency questionnaire and a lifestyle questionnaire were applied. Descriptive statistics were employed for data treatment using SPSS v.25, presenting the data as absolute and relative frequencies. Results: in terms of lifestyle, 65.6% of participants were physically active, 100% were non-smokers, and 40.6% preferred fruits and vegetables instead of sweet and savory foods. Regarding food consumption frequency, the bread and equivalents group had the highest daily intake, with French bread (44%) being the most consumed, followed by the fruit and vegetable group with lettuce leading consumption (44%). The third group was meat and equivalents with the most consumed food in that category being fried egg (28%). The least consumed food group was oils and sauces with the most consumed in the category being salad dressings (19%). Conclusion: more healthy lifestyles and eating habits were evidenced.

ABSTRACT

Introduction:Metabolic syndrome (MetS) predicts cardiovascular disease, and patients with this condition and type 2 diabetes have increased albuminuria, significantly impacting cardiovascular mortality and kidney disease progression. A considerable number of interventions to control MetS exist and are considered efficient, including the use of medication and changes in lifestyle. However, which approaches are effective in controlling albuminuria remains unclear. This systematic review protocol aims to map in the available literature whether lifestyle, medication, and surgical intervention for MetS have an impact on reducing albuminuria in adult patients. Methods: The Joanna Briggs Institute methodology for systematic reviews will be followed. Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, Scopus, Embase, and MEDLINE/PubMed databases will be used. For the Gray Literature, the DART-Europe E-theses Portal. There will be no language restriction. Studies written after 2009 will be included due to the consensus and definition of metabolic syndrome. This review will include studies considering pharmacological and non-pharmacological treatments for controlling albuminuria in patients with MetS. Studies where MetS is described in children and adolescents, animals, pregnant women, and patients with type 1 diabetes will be excluded. First, the selection will be based on reading the title and summary of the texts retrieved in the search strategy, followed by reading the relevant texts in full by two reviewers. After the selection of the studies, the extraction of the data, analysis, and synthesis will be conducted according to the JBI methodology

ABSTRACT

León, F., Mestre. A., Priego, L., & Vera, J.C. (2023). Full study of Morphological adaptations in response to chronic exercise across musculoskeletal tissues: a systematic review. PENSAR EN MOVIMIENTO: Revista de Ciencias del Ejercicio y la Salud, 21(1), 1-21. To date, there is no systematic review that summarizes the morphological adaptations of the musculoskeletal system in response to chronic exercise. This systematic review selected original articles published in English between 2000 and 2020, with a clear exercise intervention and presenting a morphological change in the tissue under study, and covering human participants irrespective of age, gender or health condition. In total, 2819 records were identified. After removal of duplicates, title and abstract screening and full-text review, 67 records were included in the final analysis (6 for inter-vertebral disc, 6 for cartilage, 36 for bone, 2 for ligament, 9 for tendon and 7 for muscle). The most used interventions were aerobic, resistance, and plyometric exercise. Population ranged from children and healthy active people to individuals with a health condition. In conclusion, as a response to chronic exercise there are morphological adaptations in the tissues of the musculoskeletal system which vary from increased stiffness to an increase in cross-sectional area. Although tissues can adapt, several questions still linger, such as optimal dose and type of exercise, whether adaptations can occur in an injured tissue, and functional implications of these adaptations. Future research should address these questions.


León, F., Mestre. A., Priego, L. y Vera, J.C. (2023). Estudio complete de Adaptaciones morfológicas en respuesta al ejercicio crónico en los tejidos osteomusculares: una revisión sistemática. PENSAR EN MOVIMIENTO: Revista de Ciencias del Ejercicio y la Salud, 21(1), 1-21. Hasta la fecha, no existe una revisión sistemática que resuma las adaptaciones morfológicas del sistema osteomuscular en respuesta al ejercicio crónico. Esta revisión sistemática seleccionó artículos originales, con fecha de publicación de 2000 a 2020, idioma de publicación en inglés, con una clara intervención de ejercicio y que presentaron un cambio morfológico en el tejido estudiado. Participantes humanos independientemente de la edad, el género o condición de salud. Se identificaron 2819 registros. Después de eliminar los duplicados, la selección de títulos y resúmenes y la revisión de texto completo, se incluyeron 67 registros en el análisis final (6 para disco intervertebral, 6 para cartílago, 36 para hueso, 2 para ligamento, 9 para tendón y 7 para músculo). Los resultados destacan que las intervenciones más utilizadas fueron ejercicio aeróbico, contra resistencia y pliométrico. La población abarcó desde niños y personas sanas activas hasta personas con alguna condición de salud. Se concluye que como respuesta al ejercicio crónico existen adaptaciones morfológicas en los tejidos del sistema musculoesquelético, que pueden variar desde un aumento de rigidez hasta un aumento de área. Aunque los tejidos pueden adaptarse, aún quedan varias preguntas, como la dosis y tipo de ejercicio óptimo, si pueden ocurrir adaptaciones en un tejido lesionado y las implicaciones funcionales de estas adaptaciones. La investigación futura debe abordar estas preguntas.

ABSTRACT

El objetivo de la presente investigación consiste en determinar los motivos en la práctica de ejercicio físico y relación con la condición física -agilidad, flexibilidad, fuerza explosiva- en deportistas marciales adolescentes en la nueva normalidad. La muestra está constituida por 56 deportistas de taekwondo y 18 de kárate. Se utilizó el Autoinforme de Motivos para la Práctica de Ejercicio Físico (AMPEF) y los test de: Illinois, sit and reach y salto vertical cuantificaron la agilidad, flexibilidad de musculatura isquiotibial y fuerza explosiva de tren inferior. Se cumplió análisis estadístico -coeficiente de correlación de Pearson- entre motivaciones y condición física. Los principales factores motivacionales de los adolescentes marciales fueron: Prevención y salud positiva (M=8,9; DE=1,69), desafío (M=8,9; DE=1,8), diversión y bienestar (M=8,6; DE=1,9). Los test físicos evidencian excelentes resultados en agilidad y flexibilidad, la fuerza explosiva está por debajo de la media. Existen correlaciones positivas entre las capacidades de agilidad (0.86 en hombres y 0.80 en mujeres), fuerza (0.90 en hombres y 0.84 en mujeres) y sus correspondientes factores motivacionales, y una correlación negativa entre la flexibilidad (-0.88 en hombres y -0.90 en mujeres) y su motivación respectiva. Se concluye que los resultados del cuestionario AMPEF y niveles de agilidad, flexibilidad y fuerza explosiva se correlacionan ya sea positiva o negativamente, con valores altos en el coeficiente de Pearson, significa que los adolescentes marciales están conscientes de sus capacidades físicas y mostraron motivación para mejorar sus habilidades.


The objective of this research is to determine the reasons in the practice of physical exercise, and its relationship with the physical condition -agility, flexibility, explosive strength- of adolescent martial art athletes in the new normal. The sample is made up of 56 taekwondo athletes and 18 karate athletes. The Reasons to Practice Physical Exercise Self-report (AMPEF, for its name in Spanish) was used, as well as the tests of Illinois, sit and reach and vertical jump quantified agility, flexibility of the hamstring muscles and explosive strength of the lower body. Statistical analysis-Pearson's correlation coefficient-was performed between motivations and physical condition. The main motivational factors of the adolescent athletes were prevention and positive health (M=8.9; SD=1.69), challenge (M=8.9; SD=1.8), and fun and well-being (M=8.6; SD=1,9). Physical tests showed excellent results in agility and flexibility but explosive strength was below average. There were positive correlations between the abilities of agility (0.86 in men and 0.80 in women), strength (0.90 in men and 0.84 in women), and their corresponding motivational factors, as well as a negative correlation between flexibility (-0.88 in men and -0.90 in women) and their respective motivation. It is concluded that the results of the AMPEF questionnaire and levels of agility, flexibility, and explosive strength are correlated either positively or negatively, with high values in Pearson's coefficient. This means that teenage martial athletes are aware of their physical abilities and show motivation to improve their skills.


O objetivo desta pesquisa é determinar os motivos da prática de exercício físico e sua relação com a condição física - agilidade, flexibilidade, força explosiva - em atletas marciais adolescentes na nova normalidade. A amostra é composta por 56 atletas de taekwondo e 18 de caratê. Foi utilizado o Autorrelato dos Motivos para a Prática de Exercício Físico (AMPEF) e os testes de: Illinois, sentar e alcançar e salto vertical quantificaram agilidade, flexibilidade dos músculos isquiotibiais e força explosiva da parte inferior do corpo. A análise estatística -coeficiente de correlação de Pearson- entre motivações e condição física foi concluída. Os principais fatores motivacionais dos adolescentes marciais foram: Prevenção e saúde positiva (M=8,9; DE=1,69), desafio (M=8,9; DE=1,8), diversão e bem-estar (M=8,6, DP=1,9). Os testes físicos apresentam excelentes resultados em agilidade e flexibilidade, a força explosiva está abaixo da média. Existem correlações positivas entre habilidades de agilidade (0,86 em homens e 0,80 em mulheres), força (0,90 em homens e 0,84 em mulheres) e seus correspondentes fatores motivacionais, e uma correlação negativa entre flexibilidade (-0,88 em homens e -0,90 em mulheres); mulheres) e suas respectivas motivações. Conclui-se que os resultados do questionário AMPEF e os níveis de agilidade, flexibilidade e força explosiva estão correlacionados positiva ou negativamente, com altos valores no coeficiente de Pearson, significa que os adolescentes marciais estão cientes de suas habilidades físicas e demonstraram motivação para melhorar suas habilidades.

Objetivo: Identificar los determinantes sociales relacionados a la salud ocular en pobladores adultos de una comunidad de Ica 2022. Materiales y métodos: Se desarrolló una investigación con enfoque cuantitativo de corte transversal, correlacional, donde se incluyó una muestra de 108 pobladores adultos del sector de Santa Bárbara del distrito de Tinguiña en Ica, obtenida por muestreo probabilístico; utilizando dos instrumentos elaborados por las autoras, cada uno fue sometido a validación (p: 0.031) y prueba de confiabilidad (α=0.81; KR-20: 0.83). Resultados: Se identificó como factor biológico sexo femenino en 69.4%, la edad promedio fue de 51.84 ±15.56; el 75% no refiere antecedentes familiares, dentro de los estilos de vida el 94% se expone a una pantalla electrónica, el 65% consume alimentos que protegen la visión y el 62% no toma en cuenta la distancia e iluminación adecuada para la lectoescritura; el 91% refirió recibir una atención sanitaria inadecuada, el 71% afirma que su situación económica no les permite atender su salud, 80% no accede a una consulta oftalmológica, ni cubren su tratamiento; asimismo, el 94% de los pobladores no cuidan su salud ocular. Conclusión: Los determinantes sociales de la salud ocular identificados corresponden a la deficiente situación socioeconómica (rs = 0.212; p: 0.027); el ingreso familiar deficiente para la atención de salud (rs = 0.25; p: 0.009); no cubrir la consulta oftalmológica (rs = 0.24; p: 0.012); ni el tratamiento que esta genera (rs = 0.213; p: 0.02). (AU)


Objective: To identify the social determinants associated with eye health in adult residents of a community in Ica 2022. Materials and methods: An investigation with a cross-sectional quantitative approach was developed, correlational, which included a sample of 108adult residents of the Santa Bárbara sector of the Tinguiña district in Ica, obtained by probabilistic sampling; using two instruments developed by the authors, each one was subjected to validation (p: 0.031) and reliability test (α=0.81; KR-20: 0.83). Results: Female sex was identified as a biological factor in 69.4%, the average age was 51.84 ±15.56; 75% do not refer family history, within lifestyles, 94% are exposed to an electronic screen, 65% consume foods that protect vision; 65% consume foods that protect vision and 62% do not take into account the distance and adequate lighting for reading and writing; 91% reported receiving inadequate health care, 71% affirm that their economic situation does not allow them to take care of their health, 80% do not access an ophthalmological consultation, nor do they cover their treatment; Likewise, 94% of the inhabitants do not take care of their eye health. Conclusion: The social determinants of ocular health identified correspond to the deficient socioeconomic situation (rs = 0.212; p: 0.027); deficient family income for health care (rs = 0.25; p: 0.009) and does not cover ophthalmology consultation (rs = 0.24; p: 0.012); nor the treatment that it generates (rs = 0.213; p: 0.02).

ABSTRACT

Neste trabalho discute-se como os processos migratórios podem produzir efeitos psicossociais, de diferentes ordens, dimensões e com especificidades, quando se trata da relação entre rural e urbano. O objetivo é identificar relações entre os modos de vida dos jovens universitários e a migração rural-urbana na realidade brasileira. Com base qualitativa, foram realizadas 14 entrevistas semiestruturadas com jovens universitários, de comunidades rurais, integrantes da assistência estudantil de uma instituição pública de ensino superior. Os resultados apontaram que o modo de vida dos jovens universitários que vivenciam a migração rural-urbana está atravessado por inúmeros desafios, dentre os quais a pobreza. Apresentou-se dilemas provenientes da migração para os universitários viajantes, que refletem na mudança do modo de socialização, no distanciamento dos vínculos familiares e na mudança cultural. Concluiu-se que é importante pensar políticas de assistência estudantil que considerem a dimensão socioeconômica e subjetiva, favorecendo o acesso e a permanência do estudante na universidade. (AU)


In this work discusses how the migration processes can produce psychosocial effects of different orders and dimensions, with specificities, regarding the connection between rural and urban. The objective is to identify relations between ways of life of theyoung college students and the urban-rural migration, in the Brazilian reality. Using a qualitative basis of research, we performed 14 semi structured interviews with the young college students, from rural communities, members of the student aid of a public institution of higher education. The results showed that the way of life of the young college students who experienced rural-urban migration is filled with innumerous challenges, poverty being one of them. The migration of the traveling college studentspresented dilemmas, which reflect the shift in the means of socialization, distancing from family bonds and cultural change. It has been concluded that it is important to think student aid policies that consider the social economic and subjective dimension, enabling the access and permanence of the student in the university.

ABSTRACT

Objective: To describe the epidemiological distribution characteristics of peripheral blood mosaic chromosomal alteration (mCA) in community adults aged 30-79 years in 10 regions of China. Methods: A total of 100 297 participants with complete baseline information (demographic characteristics, lifestyle, physical examination, etc.) and genotyping data of blood-derived DNA in ten regions of the China Kadoorie Biobank study were included. The mCAs were detected with the Mosaic Chromosomal Alterations pipeline, and logistic regression models were used to compare the differences in the detection rate of mCAs in different regions and populations. Results: A total of 5 810 mCA carriers were detected, with the detection rate of 5.8%. The standardized detection rate was 5.1%. The baseline detection rate of mCA increased with age, which were 3.4%, 5.0%, and 9.4% in those aged 30-, 51-, and >60 years, respectively (trend test P<0.001). A more significant proportion of mCAs were found in men (8.0%) than women (4.0%), as well as in urban areas (6.4%) than in rural areas (5.3%), the difference was significant (P<0.001). After adjusting for age and gender, the detection rate of mCA was higher in current smokers or people quitting smoking due to illness and people with low physical activity level, and the mCA detection rate was lower in obesy people (5.3%) than that in people with normal body weight (5.9%) (P=0.006). Conclusions: The detection rate of mCAs varied with region and population in community adults aged 30-79 years in 10 regions of China. The study results might contribute to the molecular identification of aging populations and guide precision prevention of age-related diseases such as cancers.

ABSTRACT

Objective: To investigate the distribution of chronic kidney disease (CKD) in participants from the China Kadoorie Biobank (CKB) study and evaluate the association between lifestyle risk factors and CKD. Methods: Based on the baseline survey data and follow-up data (as of December 31, 2018) of the CKB study, the differences in CKD cases' area and population distributions were described. Cox proportional hazards regression model was used to estimate the association between lifestyle risk factors and the risk of CKD. Results: A total of 505 147 participants, 4 920 cases of CKD were recorded in 11.26 year follow up with a incidence rate of 83.43/100 000 person-years. Glomerulonephropathy was the most common type. The incidence of CKD was higher in the urban area, men, and the elderly aged 60 years and above (87.83/100 000 person-years, 86.37/100 000 person-years, and 132.06/100 000 person-years). Current male smokers had an increased risk for CKD compared with non-smokers or occasional smokers (HR=1.18, 95%CI: 1.05-1.31). The non-obese population was used as a control group, both general obesity determined by BMI (HR=1.19, 95%CI: 1.10-1.29) and central obesity determined by waist circumference (HR=1.27, 95%CI: 1.19-1.35) were associated with higher risk for CKD. Conclusion: The risks for CKD varied with area and population in the CKB cohort study, and the risk was influenced by multiple lifestyle factors.

ABSTRACT

The paradox of increasing health needs and limited health resources prompted a change in the traditional concept of disease prevention and control, and the concept of proactive health has emerged. Proactive health aimed to prevent and control disease and improve the body's immunity by using controlled methods and means to activate the body's self-healing ability and to identify foreign harmful substances as well as damage factors and tumor cells that the body itself may produce while giving full play to individual initiative. With the continuous development of science, people could maintain and improve their immune system from many aspects, which could be roughly divided into nonpharmaceutical interventions and pharmaceutical interventions. Nonpharmacological interventions included changing lifestyles and habits, adjusting the nutritional structure and intake of food, regulating mindsets and emotions, and improving the living and working environment, etc. This review systematically elaborated on the functions and molecular mechanisms of nutrition, exercise, sleep, and emotion in regulating immunity, to provide some scientific evidence and theoretical support for proactive health.

Materiales y métodos: Investigación cuantitativa descriptiva de corte trasversal. El tamaño de la muestra fue de 178 docentes y administrativos, mediante un muestreo aleatorio simple. Se aplicó un cuestionario auto diligenciado compuesto por una ficha sociodemográfica y el instrumento fantástico, diseñado por el Departamento de Medicina Familiar de la Universidad McMaster de Canadá, ajustado por el investigador Pedro Reyes Gaspar, obteniendo un Alfa de Cronbach, de 0,706, y un coeficiente de Spearman Brown r=0,616 y la correlación dos mitades de Guttman r=0,615. Los datos se trabajaron a través del programa SPSS versión 24, mediante análisis estadístico descriptivo univariado de frecuencias y tablas de contingencia. Resultados: El 40% de la población no es activa físicamente, más de la mitad de los docentes y administrativos aseguran que no ingieren una dieta adecuada, el 26% casi nunca duermen bien y se sienten descansados, el 29% algunas veces duerme bien y descansa. El 50% algunas veces es capaz de hacer frente al estrés en sus vidas y 10% casi nunca puede manejar el estrés. Se identificó riesgo en salud en los docentes en las dimensiones de actividad física, nutrición, sueño y estrés (p.000) en comparación con los administrativos. Conclusiones: Se halló que el perfil de estilo de vida en docentes y administrativos de una universidad pública de Colombia se caracteriza por la inactividad física, una mala alimentación, un mal manejo del estrés y trastornos del sueño.


Objective: To determine the behaviors of the lifestyle in teachers and administrators of a public university in Colombia. Materials and methods: cross-sectional descriptive quantitative research. The sample size was 178 teachers and administrators, using simple random sampling. A self-completed questionnaire was applied, consisting of a sociodemographic record and the fantastic instrument, designed by the Department of Family Medicine of the McMaster University of Canada, adjusted by the researcher Pedro Reyes Gaspar, obtaining a Cronbach's Alpha of 0.706, and a coefficient Spearman Brown r=0.616 and Guttman's twohalf correlation r=0.615. The data was worked through the SPSS version 24 program, through univariate descriptive statistical analysis of frequencies and contingency tables.

ABSTRACT

A adolescência é um período marcado por alterações neuroendócrinas que influenciam o desenvolvimento do cérebro e o comportamento. Adolescentes apresentam chances aumentadas de adotar comportamentos de risco em seu estilo de vida, dentre eles o comportamento sedentário. Nesse sentido, estudos de intervenção têm buscado desenvolver estratégias eficientes para estimular adolescentes a adotarem um estilo de vida saudável. No entanto, embora ações promissoras possam ser identificadas na literatura, o real mecanismo que atua na regulação do comportamento em adolescentes parece estar associado a uma neurotrofina chamada de Fator Neurotrófico Derivado do Cérebro (BDNF), e estudar como os comportamentos de risco influenciam na sua secreção são de grande relevância para desenvolver intervenções mais efetivas. Sendo assim, o objetivo da presente tese é descrever a fundamentação teórica para o planejamento de uma intervenção multicomponente baseada na escola com ações combinadas para a promoção da atividade física, redução do comportamento sedentário e educação alimentar e nutricional, e as possíveis consequências para o desempenho cognitivo e saúde de adolescentes. A metodologia está descrita em formato de coletânea de artigos e foi dividida em quatro etapas. A primeira etapa descreve uma revisão sistemática que foi desenvolvida durante os estudos de fundamentação teórica para o planejamento da intervenção do Programa Atitude, Movimento e Escolhas para uma vida saudável (Programa AME), em que foi possível identificar a necessidade de implementar uma etapa específica de formação dos professores de educação física. Na segunda etapa foi detalhada a metodologia de uma revisão sistemática que tem como objetivo de investigar a associação entre comportamento sedentário e BDNF em adolescentes. O protocolo metodológico da revisão foi registrado no Registro Internacional Prospectivo de Revisões Sistemáticas (PROSPERO) sob o identificador CRD42023392246 e segue as diretrizes dos Principais Itens para relatar Revisões Sistemáticas e Meta-análises (PRISMA). A etapa três apresenta essa revisão sistemática concluída, com todos os resultados das buscas e análise das informações extraídas dos artigos incluídos. A quarta etapa trata-se de um estudo de justificativa e fundamentação teórica para os métodos abordados no eixo de comportamento sedentário da intervenção do Programa AME, a qual foi registrada na plataforma do Registro Brasileiro de Ensaios Clínicos sob o número RBR-86xv46. Pode-se dizer que o Programa AME é uma proposta integrada, sustentável e de baixo custo, com grande potencial para produzir benefícios no estilo de vida, desempenho cognitivo e saúde de adolescentes. Por fim, os resultados desses estudos fortalecerão a prática baseada em evidências no âmbito de pesquisas voltadas para a promoção da saúde no contexto escolar (AU).


Adolescence is a period marked by several neuroendocrine changes that influence brain development and behavior. Adolescents are more likely to adopt risky behaviors in their lifestyle, including sedentary behavior. In this sense, intervention studies have sought to develop efficient strategies to encourage adolescents to adopt a healthy lifestyle. However, although promising actions can be identified in the literature, the real mechanism that acts in the regulation of behavior in adolescents seems to be associated with the neurotrophin Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor (BDNF), and studying how risk behaviors influence its secretion are of great relevance to develop more effective interventions. Therefore, the objective of this thesis is to describe the theoretical foundation to the planning of a school-based multicomponent intervention with combined actions to promote physical activity, reduction of sedentary behavior and food and nutrition education, and the possible consequences for cognitive performance and adolescent health. The methodology of this thesis is described in the format of a collection of articles and was divided into four stages. The first stage describes a systematic review that was developed during the theoretical foundation studies for planning the intervention of the Attitude, Movement and Choices for a Healthy Life Program (AME Program), and it was possible to identify the need to implement a specific training stage for physical education teachers. In the second stage, was detailed the methodology of a systematic review that will be developed with the objective of investigating the association between sedentary behavior and BDNF in adolescents. The methodological protocol for the review was registered in the International Prospective Register of Systematic Reviews (PROSPERO) under the identifier CRD42023392246 and follow the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA). The third stage presents this completed systematic review, with all search results and analysis of information extracted from the included articles. The fourth step is a study of rationale and theoretical foundation for the methods addressed in the sedentary behavior axis of the AME Program intervention, which was registered on the Brazilian Registry of Clinical Trials platform under the number RBR-86xv46. It can be said that the AME Program is an integrated, sustainable and low-cost proposal, with great potential to produce benefits in lifestyle, cognitive performance and health of adolescents. Finally, the results of these studies will strengthen evidence-based practice in research aimed at promoting health in the school context (AU).

ABSTRACT

Introdução: Associada com uma considerável quantidade de doenças crônicas, agudas e mais recentemente, a Covid 19, a deficiência de vitamina D tem se tornado cada vez mais prevalente até em regiões de baixa latitude. Objetivo geral: Identificar e caracterizar a associação entre clima, estilo de vida e áreas verdes com os status de vitamina D em mulheres. Objetivos específicos: Avaliar a associação entre concentrações séricas de 25(OH)D e fatores relacionados ao estilo de vida em uma amostra de mulheres brasileiras que vivem na latitude 21º 80' S. Analisar a associação entre verde residencial em áreas urbanas e concentrações séricas de 25(OH)D em moradoras de uma cidade brasileira interiorana de médio porte e de clima tropical. Analisar a associação entre verde residencial, estilo de vida e concentrações séricas de 25(OH)D em moradoras de cidades de clima temperado ao sul da Inglaterra. Método: Foram realizados dois estudos epidemiológicos que analisaram a influência da dieta e exposição à luz solar no status de vitamina D. Idade, variáveis antropométricas, cor da pele e estado pós-menopausa foram medidos como potenciais fatores de confusão. O estudo transversal foi realizado com 101 mulheres com 35 anos ou mais que avaliou a associação entre a concentração sérica de 25(OH)D e a exposição à radiação ultravioleta, estilo de vida e depressão. O estudo longitudinal de 1 ano avaliou o status de vitamina D em 365 mulheres caucasianas e asiáticas, na pré-menopausa e pós-menopausa, residentes na região sul do Reino Unido. Como indicador da variável áreas verdes, foi calculado o Índice de Vegetação por Diferença Normalizada. Foram usados modelos de regressão múltipla e logística para analisar a associação entre as variáveis, além de testes não paramétricos. Os estudos resultaram em três artigos que estão na presente tese. Resultados: No primeiro artigo, no estudo transversal, mulheres mais velhas tiveram uma concentração significativamente maior de 25(OH)D do que as mulheres mais jovens (p = 0,013), bem como maior exposição à RUV (p = 0,01) e menor IMC (p = 0,005). Esses achados são independentes de outros fatores de confusão medidos. No segundo artigo, observou-se uma associacao positiva estatisticamente significativa entre a exposicao ao indice de vegetacao circundante residencial abaixo da mediana e a prevalencia de niveis insuficientes de 25(HO)D (P=0,03).No terceiro artigo, no estudo de coorte, as participantes que viviam em áreas mais verdes eram mais propensas a ter status de vitamina D melhorado (RR: 1,51, IC 95%: 1,13- 2,02), assim como, as que eram mais expostas à radiação ultravioleta (RR: 2,05, IC 95%: 1,44 - 2,92). Contudo, no modelo totalmente ajustado, as variáveis etnia e hormônio paratireóideo permaneceram significantes, p < 0,001 e p = 0,003. Conclusão: Foram encontradas associações entre vitamina D, estilo de vida, saúde mental e áreas verdes importantes para um panejamento urbano e social de incentivo a atividades ao ar livre. Contudo, uma análise de mediação que elucide como as áreas verdes contribuem para maiores níveis de vitamina D através do tempo de exposição à luz solar é necessário.


Introduction: Associated with a considerable amount of chronic and acute diseases and more recently, Covid 19, vitamin D deficiency has become increasingly prevalent even in low latitude regions. General objective: To identify and characterize the association between climate, lifestyle and green areas with vitamin D status in women. Specific objectives: To evaluate the association between serum concentrations of 25(OH)D and factors related to lifestyle in a sample of Brazilian women living at latitude 21º 80' S. To analyze the association between residential green in urban areas and serum concentrations of 25(OH)D in residents of a medium-sized country town in Brazil with a tropical climate. To analyze the association between residential greenery, lifestyle and serum concentrations of 25(OH)D in residents of temperate cities in the south of England. Method: Two epidemiological studies were performed that analyzed the influence of diet and sunlight exposure on vitamin D status. Age, anthropometric variables, skin color and postmenopausal status were measured as potential confounders. A cross-sectional study was carried out with 101 women aged 35 years or older that evaluated the association between serum 25(OH)D concentration and exposure to ultraviolet radiation, lifestyle and depression. The 1-year longitudinal study assessed the vitamin D status of 365 premenopausal and postmenopausal Caucasian and Asian women residing in the southern part of the UK. As an indicator of the green areas variable, the Vegetation Index by Normalized Difference was calculated. Multiple and logistic regression models were used to analyze the association between variables, in addition to non-parametric tests. The studies resulted in three articles that are in this thesis. Results: In the first article, in the cross-sectional study, older women had a significantly higher concentration of 25(OH)D than younger women (p = 0.013), as well as greater exposure to UVR (p = 0.01) and lower BMI (p = 0.005). These findings are independent of other measured confounders. In the second article, a statistically significant positive association was observed between exposure to the surrounding residential vegetation index below the median and the prevalence of insufficient levels of 25(HO)D (P=0.03). cohort, participants who lived in greener areas were more likely to have improved vitamin D status (RR: 1.51, 95% CI: 1.13-2.02), as were those who were more exposed to ultraviolet radiation (RR: 2.05, 95% CI: 1.44 - 2.92). However, in the fully adjusted model, the variables ethnicity and parathyroid hormone remained significant, p < 0.001 and p = 0.003. Conclusion: Association was found between vitamin D, lifestyle, mental health and important green areas for urban and social planning to encourage outdoor activities. However, a mediation analysis that elucidates how green areas contribute to higher levels of vitamin D through exposure time to sunlight is needed.
