Abstract Introduction Obesity is one of the main public health problem worldwide and it has a negative short- and long-term relationship with women's health. Assessment of this disorder is essential, as is a body composition assessed by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) with the new region of interest as the neck. Objective To verify the association between abdominal and neck fat with sleep quality in obese women. Methods The sample, obtained from a Biomedical Engineering and Health Program database, was characterized by being obese female aged between 20 and 65 years. The tests performed were anthropometric assessment, sleep quality questionnaire, physical activity level, nutritional assessment, and body composition by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA). For statistical analysis, the Shapiro-Wilk test, t test for independent samples, Kendall's Tau, linear and multiple regression and ROC curve were used. Results The sample consisted of 15 individuals with a mean age of 45 ± 11.10 years, neck circumference of 41.50 ± 2.61 and abdominal circumference of 128.20 ± 11.62. We found no correlation between the regions of interest and the sleep quality questionnaire. Regression analysis shows non-significant statistical values for abdominal fat. The statistical test proved that the new region of interest in abdominal fat is closer to better sensitivity and has a greater relationship with sleep quality. Conclusion there was no statistically significant correlation between the regions of interest and the sleep quality questionnaire. However, the abdominal fat region of interest was the point that presented the best association with sleep quality assessed by the Pittsburgh questionnaire.

Abstract Introduction The physiotherapists were one of the health professional categories on the Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic front line, however little is known how the pandemic has affected the mental health of these professionals. Objective To analyze the relation-ship between the presence of common mental disorder (CMD) and elements related to the work of physiotherapists who have been assisting patients with COVID-19. Methods: This is a cross-sectional survey study composed by physiotherapists from four states of Brazil: Alagoas, Paraíba, Pernambuco and Rio Grande do Norte. Working conditions evaluated were type of contract, weekly worked hours, time working, job satisfaction, and psychosocial aspects related to work. The CMD assessment was performed using the Self-Reporting Questionnaire-20 (SRQ-20). Results A total of 288 physiotherapists answered the electronic form, out of which 76.2% had CMD. Fear of reinfection (OR 2.75, 95%CI: 1.35-5.63) and previous infection by COVID-19 (OR: 2.03, 95%CI: 1.09-3.78) were factors related to a higher chance of risk of CMD. However, those who reported being satisfied with the work (OR: 0.28, 95%CI 0.11-0.72) and being more than 30 years old (OR: 0.46, 95%CI 0.24-0.88) had a lower chance of CMD risk. Conclusion Physiotherapists showed a higher prevalence of CMD. Fear of reinfection and previous infection by COVID-19 were risk factors to CMD, while satisfaction with the work and being more than 30 years old were protective factors to CMD.

Abstract Introduction Kinesio tape (KT), although frequently used in sports, is still a matter of debate, and the results of studies that evaluated its effects on muscle strength (MS) in athletes are still inconclusive and contradictory. Objective To evaluate the effect of a progressive KT tension protocol on knee MS in runners over an eight-week intervention. Methods Clinical trial involving 49 runners of both sexes randomized into two groups: KT (KT with progressive tension protocol) and placebo (KT without tension). The MS of knee flexors and extensors was evaluated by isokinetic dynamometer (60º/s and 90º/s) at four moments: (1) without KT; (2) with KT and without tension; (3) without KT (after 8 weeks after of intervention); (4) with KT and with tension (after 8 weeks after of intervention). Inter- and intra-group comparisons were made. The significance level adopted was 95% (p < 0.05). Results There were no significant differences in MS between the groups at any of the evaluated moments. There was a statistically significant difference in MS (60º/s) in both groups (KT and placebo) when comparing moments 4 and 2 for knee flexors, and in the placebo group between moments 4 and 2 and moments 4 and 3 for knee extensors. Conclusion The progressive tension protocol of KT was not able to intervene in the SM gain of knee flexors and extensors of runners in inter and intragroup comparisons.

Abstract Introduction Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is characterized by limited airflow associated with inflammatory response and systemic manifestations, such as dyspnea, as well as physical inactivity and intolerance to exercise. The sum of these changes can lead to peripheral muscle fatigue and exert an impact on the performance of activities of daily living (ADL). Objective To investigate the possible association between peripheral muscle fatigue and performance on ADL in individuals with COPD, and to compare the results to those of healthy age-matched individuals. Methods Individuals with a diagnosis of COPD and healthy volunteers aged 60 years or older were submitted to evaluations of peripheral muscle fatigue (using surface electromyography) and performance on the Glittre-ADL test. Results Nine individuals with COPD and ten controls were evaluated. Median isometric quadriceps contraction time was 72 [38] and 56 [51] seconds, respectively. Execution time on the ADL test was 6.1 [4] and 3.6 [1.3] minutes for COPD and control group respectively, with a significant difference between groups (p < 0.05). However, no significant correlation was found between the evaluations. Conclusion No association was found between quadriceps muscle fatigue and performance on ADL in the sample studied. In the intergroup comparison, the individuals with COPD exhibited worse ADL time execution, but no significant difference was found regarding quadriceps muscle fatigue.

Abstract Introduction Multiple studies have shown the effects of prone (PP), supine (SP) and kangaroo (KP) positions on clinical and physiological outcomes in preterm newborns, but none compared these three types of positioning between them. Objective To investigate the influence of these positionings on heart rate, respiratory rate, peripheral oxygen saturation (SpO2) and alertness status in clinically stable preterm newborns (NBs) admitted to a neonatal intensive care unit. Methods In a randomized clinical trial, clinically stable NBs with gestational ages from 30 to 37 weeks who were breathing spontaneously were allocated in three positioning groups: PP, SP and KP. Heart rate, breathing frequency, SpO2 and alertness status were evaluated immediately before and after 30 minutes of positioning. Results In all, 66 NBs were assessed (corrected age: 35.48 ± 1.94 weeks; weight: 1840.14 ± 361.09 g), (PP: n = 22; SP: n = 23; KP: n = 21). NBs in the PP group showed a significant improvement in peripheral SpO2 (97.18 ± 2.16 vs 95.47 ± 2.93 vs 95.57 ± 2.95, p = 0.03) compared with the SP and KP groups. Conclusion In clinically stable preterm NBs, the PP was associated with better peripheral oxygen saturation than the SP or KP. In addition, there was a reduction in heart rate within prone position group and in the KP group there was an increase in the number of NBs in the deep sleep classification.
多项研究表明,俯卧位(PP)、仰卧位(SP)和袋鼠式(KP)对早产儿临床和生理结局的影响,但没有对这三种睡姿进行比较。目的探讨新生儿重症监护病房(NBs)临床稳定早产儿(NBs)体位对其心率、呼吸频率、外周血氧饱和度(SpO2)和警觉性状态的影响。方法采用随机临床试验方法,将30 ~ 37周龄临床稳定、自主呼吸的新生儿分为PP、SP、KP 3个体位组。在体位30分钟前后立即评估心率、呼吸频率、SpO2和警觉性状态。结果共评估66例新生儿(校正年龄:35.48±1.94周;重量:1840.14±361.09 g), (PP: n = 22;SP: n = 23;KP: n = 21)。与SP和KP组相比,PP组NBs外周血SpO2明显改善(97.18±2.16 vs 95.47±2.93 vs 95.57±2.95,p = 0.03)。结论在临床稳定的早产儿NBs中,PP比SP或KP有更好的外周血氧饱和度。此外,俯卧位组的心率有所降低,而KP组的深度睡眠分类中NBs的数量有所增加。

Abstract Introduction People with multiple sclerosis (MS) present wide and varied symptoms. Objective To investigate the impact of MS on subjects’ motor and respiratory functions. Methods One hundred one participants were enrolled in this study. The subjects had previous diagnosis of relapsing-remittent MS (n = 48) or presented no neurologic diseases (n = 53, control group). Assess-ments involved mobility (Timed Get Up and Go) and balance (Berg Balance Scale) tests. A force platform was used to evaluate postural stabilometry. Respiratory functions were assessed with a portable spirometer and a digital manovacuometer. Data analyses were carried out with Student´s t-tests, chi-square, and Pearson correlation index. Significance was set at 5%. Results Compared to control peers, participants with MS showed higher motor dysfunctions affecting mobility, balance, and postural stability. Spirometry indicated normal parameters for pulmonary flows and lung capacities in both groups. The manovacuometer, differently, pointed to a respiratory muscle weakness in 48% of participants with MS. Correlation analyses highlighted that respiratory functions are more associated to dynamic than to static motor tests. Conclusion Pathological changes in MS lead to motor dysfunction on mobility, balance and postural stability. Respiratory tests showed normal pulmonary flows and lung capacities in patients with MS, but with commitment of respiratory muscle strength. Respiratory functions were more impacted by dynamic tasks rather than static motor tasks.

Abstract Introduction Spinal cord injury generates muscle weakness, impairing orthostatism and gait. The elliptical trainer (ET) and the ergometric bicycle (EB) are rehabilitation options for this subject. Understanding the pattern of muscle activation generated by these methods is important to answer questions arising from clinical practice. Objective To verify muscle activation with ET and EB with and without electromyographic biofeedback in subjects with incomplete spinal cord injury (ISCI). Methods Cross-sectional crossover study, enrolled in Clinical Trials (NCT05118971). Subjects with spinal cord injury (incomplete spinal cord injury group - ISCIG) and without spinal cord injury (reference group - RG) were randomized into four groups: elliptical group (EG), elliptical + biofeedback group (EBG), bicycle group (BG) and bicycle + biofeedback group (BBG). Subjects were assessed for functionality by the Functional Independence Measure, injury classification by the ASIA Scale, muscle tone by the modified Ashworth scale, and muscle activity by electromyography. Results There was greater activation of the tibialis anterior on cycling compared to other modalities in ISCIG. Biofeedback offered no difference in any of the groups. In RG the vastus medialis was the most activated muscle in all modalities, with more expressive activation in the ET. In this same group, the tibialis anterior was more activated on the EB. Conclusion This study showed that both ET and EB are safe and effective in recruiting the muscles investigated, encouraging its use by rehabilitation professionals when the objective is to strength muscles involved in gait.

O resultado foi verificado pelos autores da IM, garantindo a precisão semântica e de conteúdo. Resultados A Matriz de Envolvimento (ME) foi traduzida para o português e retrotraduzida ao inglês. Posteriormente, os pesquisadores da versão brasileira realizaram uma reunião com os autores da ME para esclarecer dúvi-das, havendo a necessidade de mínimos ajustes na retrotradução, sem mudanças da versão em português. Após a aprovação da versão final em português brasi-leiro, foram disponibilizadas as ferramentas traduzidas: um Guia Prático, uma Versão em Word, uma Lista de Verificação, uma Ficha Técnica, uma Visão Geral com Exemplos e um Vídeo Animado legendado em português brasileiro. Conclusão Os diversos materiais da ME estão adequadamente traduzidos e disponíveis gratuitamente para uso no Brasil. Trata-se de uma ferramenta valiosa para guiar o envolvimento do público e do paciente em pesquisas.","PeriodicalId":33749,"journal":{"name":"Fisioterapia em Movimento","volume":"29 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135311159","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Resumo Introdução Estudos sugerem que a espessura diafrag-mática (ED) está associada à força muscular inspiratória e, consequentemente, à melhor eficiência ventilatória e mecânica. Por outro lado, doenças infecciosas como a COVID-19 podem impactar a estrutura e função do apa-relho respiratório. Objetivo Avaliar a associação entre a ED e o desempenho físico (DF) de atletas e os efeitos da infecção por COVID-19 sobre esses parâmetros. Métodos Trata-se de um estudo transversal envolvendo 63 atletas de diferentes modalidades esportivas, de ambos os sexos (feminino: 16,67 ± 5,03 anos, 52,09 ± 14,01 kg, 155,90 ± 13,86 cm; masculino 23,44 ± 9,65 anos, 72,24 ± 14,18 kg, 174,84 ± 6,84 cm), que foram submetidos à avaliação da ED por meio de ultrassom e, em seguida, ao teste de DF (Yo-Yo test) para determinar o consumo máximo de oxigênio (VO2max). Utilizou-se a correlação de Pearson para verificar a associação entre VO2max e ED, e o teste t de Student para diferenças entre atletas com diagnóstico positivo e negativo para COVID-19. O nível de significância foi ajustado em 5%. Resultados Não houve associação entre ED e DF (r = 0,30 e p = 0,22) e não houve diferença entre os atletas não infectados e infectados por COVID-19 em relação à ED (57,00 ± 0,26 vs 52,00 ± 0,25%; p = 0,91) e DF (43,88 ± 2,29 vs 38,34 ± 13,61 ml/kg/min; p = 0,69). Conclusão A ED não foi associada ao consumo máximo de oxigênio em atletas. Além disso, atletas infectados por COVID-19 não exibiram diferenças no VO2max e ED em relação aos não infectados.
研究表明,膈肌厚度(ED)与吸气肌肉力量有关,因此,更好的呼吸和机械效率。另一方面,COVID-19等传染病会影响呼吸系统的结构和功能。目的评估ED与运动员体能表现(fd)之间的关系以及COVID-19感染对这些参数的影响。方法:对63名不同运动项目的男女运动员进行横断面研究(女性:16.67±5.03岁,52.09±14.01 kg, 155.90±13.86 cm)。男性23.44±9.65岁,72.24±14.18 kg, 174.84±6.84 cm),超声ED评估,然后DF试验(溜溜球试验)确定最大摄氧量(VO2max)。我们使用Pearson相关来验证VO2max和ED之间的关系,并使用学生t检验来评估COVID-19阳性和阴性运动员之间的差异。显著性水平调整为5%。结果ED与fd无相关性(r = 0.30, p = 0.22),未感染和感染COVID-19的运动员与ED无差异(57.00±0.26 vs 52.00±0.25%;p = 0.22)p = 0.91)和DF(43.88±2.29 vs 38.34±13.61 ml/kg/min;p = 0.69)。结论ED与运动员最大耗氧量无关。此外,与未感染的运动员相比,感染COVID-19的运动员在最大摄氧量和ED方面没有差异。

Resumo Introdução A Doença de Parkinson (DP) é uma doença neurodegenerativa caracterizada pela perda de neurônios dopaminérgicos na substância negra. Apresenta sintomas motores e não motores ligados à diminuição da autonomia e qualidade de vida. Entre os tratamentos prescritos está a fisioterapia aquática (FA), sendo um recurso na reabilitação e/ou prevenção de alterações funcionais. Objetivo Analisar os efeitos de um programa de FA nas condições cardiovasculares e fadiga em indivíduos com DP. Métodos Foram utilizados os sinais vitais frequência cardíaca (FC) e pressão arterial (PA), mensurados antes e depois de cada intervenção, e o duplo-produto (DPr) e Escala de Severidade da Fadiga (ESF) pré e pós-intervenção. A intervenção consistiu em oito encontros, durante quatro semanas, duas vezes por semana, com 40 minutos de imersão em piscina aquecida com média de 33 ºC. A análise estatística deu-se pelo test T pareado para a ESF e teste Anova para medidas repetidas do DPr, PA e FC, adotando p < 0,05. Resultados Houve melhora significativa na percepção de fadiga pela ESF (p = 0,037) de 4,7 ± 1,6 (pré-intervenção) para 4,3 ± 1,6 (pós-intervenção). DPr, PA e FC não apresentaram diferença significativa (p = 1). Conclusão Os sinais vitais de FC e PA se mantiveram em valores apropriados para idosos, bem como o DPr se manteve dentro de uma faixa segura de treinamento submáximo. Assim, o programa de FA proposto foi capaz de diminuir de forma significativa a fadiga nesta amostra de pessoas com DP.
