Métodos: Trata-se de uma pesquisa descritiva, com abordagem quantitativa realizada em um Centro de Convivência, de caráter público, situado na cidade de Teresina, Piauí, Brasil. Os participantes do estudo foram 76 mulheres idosas que frequentem o Centro de Convivência. A coleta dos dados ocorreu no Centro de Convivência por meio da aplicação de um questionário nos meses de outubro e novembro de 2018. Os dados foram registrados em uma planilha Microsoft Excel e posteriormente exportadas no programa IbmSpssStatistics 20.0 para tabulação dos dados.

A comorbidade que teve o maior índice foi o sobrepeso com 25,18 % e a queda atingindo 49,68%. Os determinantes do envelhecimento ativo 40,79% das idosas tinham dificuldades com a visão e cerca de 84,21% não tem escada no domicílio e 56% das idosas usam tapete solto (56,58). Conclusão:Portanto, apesar que nem todas as idosas obtiveram uma avaliação positiva em cada domínio da avaliação multidimensional, em uma visão geral apresentaram com envelhecimento ativo

Objective: To analyze, through multidimensional evaluation, the determinants of active aging in Elderly Women. Methods: This is a descriptive study, with a quantitative approach, carried out in a Public Health Center, located in the city of Teresina, Piauí, Brazil.The study participants were 76 elderly women who attend the Community Center. Data collection took place at the Community Center through the application of a questionnaire in the months of October and November 2018.

Cariogenic and erosive potential of industrialized fruit juices available in Brazil

Aim: This in vitro study evaluated the cariogenic and erosive potential of different industrialized fruit juices available in the Brazilian market. Methods: Twenty-five samples of fruit juices were analyzed physically and chemically by means of the following parameters: pH, titratable acidity(TA) and total soluble solid content (TSSC), reducing sugars (e.g.: glucose), non-reducing sugars (e.g.: sucrose) and total sugars. The analyses were made in triplicate. Data were collected by a single examiner and were recorded in study-specific charts. Data were statistically analyzed by A NOVA and Tukey’s post-test (p<0.05). Results: All fruit juices showed pH below the critical value of 5.5, with significant differences among the samples (p<0.0001). Mango juice (Jandaia®)presented the lowest TSSC (10.25 oBrix), while orange juice (Del Valle®) presented the highest TSSC (12.75 oBrix), with no significant differences among the samples. The lowest and the highest TA values were recorded for cashew juice (Jandaia®) (0.13%) and passion fruit (Del Valle®)(0.52%), respectively (p<0.0001). For reducing sugars (glucose), the highest value was recorded for purple fruit juice (Skinka®) (10.85 g/100mL) and the lowest was recorded for strawberry juice(Kapo®) (1.84 g/100mL). Regarding non-reducing sugars (sucrose), the values ranged from0.45 g/100mL (passion fruit/Del Valle®) to 9.07 g/100mL (orange/Del Valle®). Purple fruit juice(Skinka®) presented the highest total sugars content (12.09 g/100mL), while guava juice (Jandaia®)presented the lowest content (7.25 g/100mL). There were significant differences among the samples for reducing, non-reducing and total sugars (p<0.0001). Conclusions: The industrialized fruit juices evaluated in this study presented low pH and high total sugar content, differing in their erosive and cariogenic potential, respectively.

As nomeações em diferentes gêneros textuais

In this paper we analyse, in the light of the relation between formal and semantic-pragmatic criteria, some contexts in which more often occurs the process of nominalization by anpahoric and discursive deictic elements. We aim at relating some subsets of nominalizating expressions to the various functions they can perform in written texts(AU)
