BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Musculoskeletal pain is increasingly common in the field of workers’ health. When the work is characterized by rudimentary activities, as in the case of family farming, which requires the use of manual labor, intense and prolonged working journey, exposure to physical, chemical, biological, mechanical and ergonomic risks, the worker is prone to develop musculoskeletal diseases, and consequently pain. The objective of this study was to investigate the prevalence of musculoskeletal pain in family farmers, as well as to identify the body segments mostly affected and evaluate the tools used in the working process that may influence the development of musculoskeletal diseases and pain. METHODS: A research form that includes social-demographic data, the Nordic Musculoskeletal Questionnaire, and the visual analog pain scale were used. 150 farmers participated in the study. Statistical tests were applied to the data obtained, including the Fisher Exact. The H0 hypothesis was rejected for a significance level of p≤0.05, stipulating a confidence interval of 95%. RESULTS: The results show a high prevalence of musculoskeletal pain in surveyed farmers, whose most affected regions were the lower back and shoulders. The pain reported by farmers is associated with the activities performed and the tools used, such as the hoe and the hand spray, used at work. CONCLUSION: Farmers are susceptible to the development of work-related musculoskeletal disorders, and the prevalence of the referred pain is high.

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Complex regional pain syndrome type I causes personal and social losses to the affected subject. The objective of this study was to analyze life, health and working condition of subjects with this syndrome, of working age, in a city in the countryside of Rio Grande do Sul, RS. CASE REPORTS: Study of seven cases, with the diagnosis of complex regional pain syndrome type I, with a predominance of female, married, relatively low educational level. In assessing physical health condition, the majority of participants considered their physical health moderate, and bad mental/emotional health. Most participants used assistive technology resources. CONCLUSION: It was observed that the syndrome interfered in the participants’ work activities. The data of the International Classification of Functioning, Disability, and Health showed that these subjects face several limitations in their daily activities. Therefore, this disease has negative impacts on life/health condition of these workers, who are temporarily or permanently forced to leave their work activities.

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: The objective of this study was to evaluate the prevalence of musculoskeletal pain in climacteric women of a Basic Health Unit in Sao Paulo. METHODS: This is a descriptive cross-sectional study, with the participation of 93 climacteric women with average age of 49.1±6.1 years, with medical history containing obstetric background and pain characterization, including the presence, location, and intensity of these complaints. For data collection, we used a map of pain and a visual analog scale associated with the faces pain rating scale. RESULTS: Of the total, 87 women (93%) reported pain, with an average onset of symptoms of 5.8±7.7 years, and average pain in the visual analog and the faces scales of 6.9±3mm. The pain was classified by most of the women (53%) as intense, and the places of greater involvement were the spine (71%), followed by the knees (58%) and shoulders (47%). Thus, the musculoskeletal pain showed to be a frequent complaint among climacteric women, involving 93% of the volunteers in this study, ranked by the majority as an intense pain. CONCLUSION: It is important to recognize the magnitude of this complaint in primary care to elaborate preventive and therapeutic actions aiming at improving the quality of life of these women.

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: The aim of this study was to compare anxiety, depression and disability indexes in patients with myofascial pain with and without additional diagnosis of migraine. METHODS: We included 203 patients of the Orofacial Pain Clinic of the University of California, Los Angeles, USA. Patients were over 18 years of age, both genders, with a primary diagnosis of myofascial pain. The patients were also evaluated for the presence of migraine according to the criteria of the International Headache Society. The sample was divided into two groups: 120 patients with only myofascial pain (Group 1) and 83 patients with myofascial pain and with an additional diagnosis of migraine (Group 2). The Beck Anxiety Inventory, Beck Depression Inventory and Migraine Disability Assessment questionnaires were applied. The Mann-Whitney test was used to compare the groups at a significance level of 5%. RESULTS: Patients in group 1 presented significantly higher indexes in the Beck Anxiety Inventory (p=0.005), Beck Depression Inventory (p=0.025) and number of days lost and/or impaired (56.4 days) than those in group 2. The Migraine Disability Assessment Questionnaire scores for groups 1 and 2 were, respectively, 48% and 24.1% for grade I; 9.2% and 3.6% for grade II; 8.2% and 22.9% for grade III; and, 34.7% and 49.4% for grade IV.

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Cancer pain is common in patients under chemotherapy and there is the need for a multiprofessional therapeutic plan, especially for nursing assistance, in the attempt to control it. This study aimed at evaluating qualitative pain characteristics of cancer patients under chemotherapy, by means of the McGill Pain Questionnaire. METHODS: This is a quantitative, descriptive and cross-sectional study made up of 23 participants under chemotherapy with cancer pain. Data were collected by means of McGill Pain Questionnaire in a High Complexity Assistance Unit of a city of Minas Gerais. RESULTS: Most participants were females, Caucasian, with basic education, affected by more advanced breast cancer. Burning and sore were the most prevalent descriptors in sensory pain category. Among affective descriptors, tiresome and sickening were the most prevalent. Troublesome pain has prevailed as evaluative characteristic and for miscellaneous descriptors, most prevalent were radiating and nauseating. CONCLUSION: Scales to evaluate qualitative pain aspects favor nursing assistance, providing tailored assistance aimed at the complaint of each patient. Their competences allow the use of this tool aiming at increasingly qualifying its practice, thus improving quality of life of patients or, at least, decreasing their distress.

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Peripheral neuropathy caused by chemotherapeutic drugs is today one of the major limiting factors in cancer pharmacological therapy due to its negative influence in the cancer patient’s quality of life. Its incidence varies depending on the pharmacological nature of the therapy used. Peripheral neurotoxicity caused by 5-Fluorouracil was scarcely described, being characterized as rare adverse effect of this drug. The objective of this study is to report a 5-Fluorouracil induced late peripheral neuropathy case treated at the Pain Clinic, with standard care for neuropathic main. CASE REPORT: Female patient, 62 years old, undergoing 5-Fluorouracil chemotherapy 2520mg/week in 5 cycles of 360mg/day continuous infusion to treat colorectal cancer. Three months after the end of the cycle she reported burning pain and hand and foot dysesthesia with proximal irradiation and allodynia. She was referred to the Pain Clinic 2 years after the symptoms onset. The treatment started with gabapentin and she was advised to have psychiatric follow-up and physical exercises. The Visual Numeric Scale was used to assed pain. In less than 6 months the patient reported pain improvement with values reduced from 10 to 2. CONCLUSION: Although uncommon, peripheral neuropathy can occur as permanent toxicity due to 5-Fluorouracil chemotherapy and should be early identified and treated to improve patient’s quality of life.

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Musculoskeletal disorders represents one of the major public health problems among workers and the general population, and it is multifactorial in origin. It has attracted the attention of researchers concerned with issues relating to health and work, due to cost and its impact on the quality of life. It causes functional impairment, limitations in activities, decreased quality of life, disability, reduced work productivity and direct medical costs. To measure the prevalence of musculoskeletal disorders and the association between the musculoskeletal disorders and pain disability in dentists in São Paulo, Brazil. METHODS: A cross sectional study was conducted with 91dentists in the northwest of São Paulo, Brazil. Data were collected through interviews, using the Nordic Questionnaire, The Pain Disability Questionnaire and the Numeric Pain Scale were also administered to workers who reported pain. Statistical analyses were performed using SPSS 21.0. RESULTS: Most dentists (90.4%) had musculoskeletal disorders, especially in the neck, upper and lower back. The analysis of the intensity of pain and disability with Pain Disability Questionnaire in symptomatic dentists showed an average pain intensity of 1.96, its intensity was classified as moderate. Mean scores of the Pain Disability Questionnaire total (7.91) and its dimensions functional condition (5.29) and psychosocial condition (2.61) suggest moderate disability in Brazilian dentists. There was moderate t correlation (r = 0.409) between pain intensity and the total score of disability caused by pain. CONCLUSION: Pain and work-related musculoskeletal disorders interfere significantly in dentists’ lives. There is significant correlation between pain intensity and disability caused by pain in dental surgeons.

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: An increasingly popular modality is futsal; with increased popularity, the number of adolescents practicing such sport is also increasing and, as consequence, related injuries are also increasing, becoming object of interest of healthcare professionals. This study aimed at comparing signs and symptoms in adolescents practicing and not practicing futsal, to suggest positivity for patellar chondromalacia. METHODS: To detect patellar chondromalacia, history and physical evaluation (Perkin, lateral patellar shift, Waldron, patellar apprehension and Clarke’s signal) were performed. RESULTS: Participated in the study 88 individuals, being 44 futsal practitioners and 44 non-practitioners. In the practitioners group, 54.5% have reported knee pain versus 34.1% of non-practitioners. The crossing of clinical signs with pain has shown statistically significant values: Perkin test (p=0.030), Waldron test (p=0.030) for practitioners and Perkin (p=0.002), lateral patellar shift (p=0.020) and Clarke’s signal (p=0.014) for non-practitioners. CONCLUSION: This study has shown more positivity of clinical tests for patellar chondromalacia in non-practitioners of futsal, however practitioners had lower frequency of positivity, except for Clarke’s signal. In addition, pain was more frequent in the practitioners group.

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Musculoskeletal injuries induced by labor process and organization are relevant for health/labor relationship. This study aimed at investigating the prevalence of musculoskeletal complaints and associated factors among leather products manufacturers. METHODS: Cross-sectional study where data were obtained by means of self-applied questionnaires to 320 workers distributed among 13 plants of the city of Cristina, MG, between February and March 2011. Nordic questionnaire of musculoskeletal symptoms was applied to measure the prevalence of complaints in different body regions. A descriptive analysis was carried out on the socio-demographic profile of the studied population. Multivariate logistic regression was used to describe the association between dependent variable, musculoskeletal complaint and the set of explanatory variables, with adjusted odds ratio calculation. Logistic regression was used with adjusted odds ratio calculation. RESULTS: The study involved 138 workers. Better adjusted multivariate model after confusion variables control was for knee pain, with prevalence of 40.0% among males and 24.1% among females. Sewing and finishing sectors behaved as “protection”, that is, less chance for pain as compared to the cutting sector. Age had negative association, that is, the higher the age the lower the chance of pain. In a different adjusted model for shoulder pain, workers and time working on the job showed higher chance of pain. CONCLUSION: The prevalence of complaints was higher than that found in the literature. Significant variables were identified which may subsidize the prevention of job distress, such as knee pain. Further studies are needed with the inclusion of other variables and other designs to minimize biases.

This study aimed at investigating the prevalence of musculoskeletal complaints and associated factors among leather products manufacturers. METHODS: Cross-sectional study where data were obtained by means of self-applied questionnaires to 320 workers distributed among 13 plants of the city of Cristina, MG, between February and March 2011. Nordic questionnaire of musculoskeletal symptoms was applied to measure the prevalence of complaints in different body regions. A descriptive analysis was carried out on the socio-demographic profile of the studied population. Multivariate logistic regression was used to describe the association between dependent variable, musculoskeletal complaint and the set of explanatory variables, with adjusted odds ratio calculation. Logistic regression was used with adjusted odds ratio calculation. RESULTS: The study involved 138 workers. Better adjusted multivariate model after confusion variables control was for knee pain, with prevalence of 40.0% among males and 24.1% among females. Sewing and finishing sectors behaved as “protection”, that is, less chance for pain as compared to the cutting sector. Age had negative association, that is, the higher the age the lower the chance of pain.

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Pregnancy is characterized by a period when women’s body suffers different changes. Between 50 and 80% of pregnant women refer low back pain, which may directly interfere with their quality of life. This study aimed at determining the prevalence of low back pain and its interference with quality of life of pregnant women assisted in the Family Health Strategy of the City of Cabo Frio. METHODS: Field cross-sectional study with pregnant women between the 13th and 36th week of gestation, with low back pain, assisted in a low risk pre-natal program. A demographic questionnaire, Roland Morris and WHOQOL-bref questionnaires were applied to evaluate low back pain and quality of life, respectively. Descriptive statistics and Spearman correlation tests were used and p<0.05 was considered statistically significant. RESULTS: Participated in the study 139 pregnant women assisted by the pre-natal assistance program. Mean age of 24.4±7.65 years. There has been significant correlation between quality of life domains questionnaire (physical domain p<0.000, psychological domain p<0.004, environmental domain p<0.022; social relations domain p<0.0025 and overall quality of life p<0.000 and Roland Morris questionnaire. There has been correlation between weeks of gestation and Roland Morris questionnaire (p<0.005). As to weeks of gestation and quality of life questionnaire there has only been correlation in the social relation domain (p<0.025). CONCLUSION: Low back pain interferes with quality of life of studied pregnant women.
背景和目的:怀孕是妇女身体发生不同变化的一个时期。50%到80%的孕妇认为腰痛会直接影响她们的生活质量。这项研究的目的是确定腰痛的流行程度及其对孕妇生活质量的影响，并在卡波弗里奥市家庭保健战略的协助下进行。方法:采用低风险产前方案，对妊娠13 - 36周腰痛孕妇进行实地横断面研究。采用人口统计学问卷、Roland Morris问卷和whoqol - brief问卷分别评估腰痛和生活质量。采用描述性统计和Spearman相关检验，p<0.05为差异有统计学意义。结果:139名孕妇参加了本研究。平均年龄24.4±7.65岁。生活质量问卷各领域存在显著相关(生理领域p<0.000，心理领域p<0.004，环境领域p<0.022;社会关系领域p<0.0025，整体生活质量p<0.000, Roland Morris问卷。妊娠周数与Roland Morris问卷存在相关性(p<0.005)。妊娠周数与生活质量问卷仅在社会关系领域存在相关性(p<0.025)。结论:腰痛会影响孕妇的生活质量。
