The Image of a Birch Tree in Folklore’s Picture of the World: On the Interpretation of a Komi Riddle
Authors: Низовцева Светлана Григорьевна
Published: November 2022

В статье рассматривается образ дерева в традиционной культуре и фольклоре народа коми. Образ дерева формируется разными признаками, которые исследователями часто объединяются в семантические оппозиции, обусловленные реальными и «культурными» свойствами деревьев: вечнозеленый - листопадный, плодовый - неплодовый, благословленный - проклятый, чистый - нечистый, одушевленный - неодушевленный, мужской - женский и др. Береза - один из наиболее распространенных дендрарных образов в обрядности и фольклоре разных народов, в том числе у коми-зырян. Рассмотрим, как реализуется образ березы в рамках отдельных семантических признаков в жанре загадки. Особое внимание уделяется анализу одного распространенного «сюжета» коми загадки о березе со снятой берестой в сравнительной типологии с текстами загадок других финно-угорских и русской традиций. Функциональное свойство дерева, связанное с добыванием и заготовкой коры, стало самым значимым признаком березы и отразилось в многочисленных вариантах загадок коми в образе дерева со снятой берестой. В традиции загадывания коми этот образ реализуется через антропоморфное кодирование и наделяется мужской символикой, в частности, метафорическая репрезентация березы закрепилась в загадках через образ человека/ мужчины в красных штанах, а семантическая интерпретация может проявляться на разных уровнях, как бытовом, так и мифологическом. Очень близкие к коми «сюжеты» и образы обнаружились в хантыйской и мансийской традициях загадывания.

This article examines the image of the birch tree in the traditional culture and folklore of the Komi people. The image is formed from various signs which researchers often combine into semantic oppositions that define both real and “cultural” features: evergreen - deciduous, fruitful - infertile, blessed - cursed, pure - unclean, animate - inanimate, male - female, etc. The birch is one of the most common arboreal images in the rituals and folklore of various peoples, including the Komi-Zyryan. This article considers how the image of the birch tree is realized within the framework of the semantic features of the genre of riddle. Special attention is paid to one common plot of Komi riddles about a birch tree with its bark removed; it is compared typologically to riddles of other Finno-Ugric and Russian traditions. The functional property of the tree associated with the extraction and harvesting of bark emerges as the most significant feature of the birch tree and is reflected in numerous variants of Komi riddles which include the image of a birch with its bark removed. In the tradition of Komi riddles, the image is realized through anthropomorphic coding and is endowed with male symbols; in particular, the birch tree is metaphorically represented by the image of a man in red pants. Semantic interpretation can be performed at different levels, both the everyday and the mythological. Plots in the Khanty and Mansi traditions of riddling were found that are very close to the Komi.
Bashkir Hospitality and Its Reflection in Folk Paremias
Authors: Рахматуллина Зугура Ягануровна , Хусаинова Гульнур Равиловна
Published: November 2022

Статья посвящена теме гостеприимства и его отражению в башкирской народной паремии. Духовные смыслы и ценности гостеприимства, являющегося неотъемлемой составляющей традиционной культуры многих народов во все исторические времена, актуальны и представляют интерес для современного общества. Они выражают устоявшиеся в народном сознании требования к взаимоотношениям и поведению как человека, оказавшегося в силу ряда причин в другом доме, так и хозяина, приютившего гостя, предоставляя ему достойный прием. Гостеприимство получило оформление в культуре прежде всего в виде лаконичной и яркой метафоры народных поговорок и пословиц, сохранив свои безусловные императивы в жизни человека эпохи постмодерна и передавая современной культуре духовные призывы и этические требования прошлых поколений. Среди пословиц одного народа встречается много и таких, которые адекватны или семантически близки к изречениям других народов, в то же время им присуща национальная специфика. У самых разных народов мира существует целый ряд общих понятий и представлений, сходство или идентичность которых определяются объективными условиями человеческой жизни. Экономическое, культурное и языковое общение между народами создает предпосылки для взаимопроникновения фольклорных материалов, в том числе и паремий. Заимствования же оформляются по нормам и правилам языка народа, который его «взял», и по законам поэтики жанра.

The article examines hospitality and its reflection in Bashkir folk paremias. The spiritual meanings and values of hospitality are an integral part of the traditional culture of many peoples in all historical periods and remain relevant in modern society. They express the requirements established in popular consciousness for the relationship and behavior for both those who for various reasons find themselves in someone else’s house, and for the host who shelters the guest. Hospitality received its early cultural formalization primarily in the form of the concise and vivid metaphors of folk sayings and proverbs, and preserves its imperatives by transmitting the spiritual and ethical values of past generations to modern ones. Among the proverbs of one people there are often many that are equivalent or semantically close to the sayings of other peoples but which at the same time retain national specificity. The most diverse peoples of the world share common concepts and ideas whose similarity is determined by the conditions of human life. Economic, cultural and linguistic communication among peoples creates conditions for the interpenetration of folkloric material, including paremias. Borrowings are generated according to the norms and rules of the language of the people who “borrow” and according to the laws and poetics of the genre.
On Kalmyk Tongue Twisters
Authors: Басангова Тамара Горяевна
Published: November 2022

Статья посвящена малоизученному жанру детского фольклора калмыков - скороговоркам. Основная цель работы - определение жанровых признаков калмыцких скороговорок, рассмотрение обозначений жанра, основанных на народной терминологии: җора үгмүд (быстрые слова), келнә ээдрә һарһдг үгмүд (слова, устраняющие запинание), дарҗңгуд (быстро говорить, тараторить), классификация различных групп скороговорок по функциональному принципу, определение типов синтаксического построения скороговорок. Теоретический подход к изучению жанра скороговорки опирается на жанровую теорию, выработанную в отечественной науке о фольклоре; используется сравнительно-исторический и сравнительно-типологический методы исследования.

This article is devoted to a little studied genre of Kalmyk children’s folklore - tongue twisters. It defines their generic features and considers the derivation of the genre’s designations from folk terminology, which include: zhora ugmud (fast words), kelnә eedrә һаrһdg ugmud (words that eliminate stuttering), and darzhngud (to speak quickly, to chatter). Some groups of tongue twisters are classified according to the functional principle, and some by their syntactic construction. This approach is based on the genre theory developed in Russian scholarship on folklore and employs comparative-historical and comparative-typological research methods.
Figurative Parallelisms in Sart-Kalmyk Proverbs
Authors: Борлыкова Босха Халгаевна , Меняев Бадма Викторович , Басанова Татьяна Владимировна
Published: November 2022

В настоящей статье впервые исследуются сарт-калмыцкие пословицы. Авторы в начале статьи дают краткую историю собирания сарт-калмыцких пословиц. Материалом для исследования послужили личные полевые материалы авторов, собранные в Иссык-Кульской области Киргизии в ходе научной экспедиции 2021 г., а также архивные (А. В. Бурдукова (1929), Б. В. Меняева (2009, 2012)) и опубликованные материалы [Павлов 1990]. В качестве дополнительного материала привлечены пословицы текесских олётов - «ближайших родичей сарт-калмыков», ойратов Китая (Синьцзяна) и калмыков России. Новизна исследования заключается в изучении образных параллелизмов, встречаемых в сарт-калмыцких пословицах с компонентом-зоонимом. Актуальность исследования обусловлена утратой языка и фольклорной традиции сарт-калмыков. Проведен анализ образной мотивировки общего значения сарт-калмыцких пословиц, в частности, параллелизма мира животных (птиц, насекомых) и людей. Зоонимы в образных параллелизмах служат для характеристик прежде всего человека. Выявленные авторами статьи сарт-калмыцкие паремии имеют соответствия в устном творчестве олётов, ойратов Китая (Синьцзяна) и калмыков России, что является свидетельством их общего этнического происхождения. В результате исследования авторы статьи пришли к выводу, что образные параллели в сарт-калмыцких пословицах отражают ценностные стереотипы национального мышления и мировосприятия сарт-калмыков.

This article examines Sart-Kalmyk proverbs for the first time. At the beginning the authors give a brief history of collecting Sart-Kalmyk proverbs. The analysis is based on the field materials the authors collected in the Issyk-Kul region of Kyrgyzstan during a scholarly expedition in 2021 as well as on archival and published sources. In addition, proverbs of the Tekes Olets - “the closest relatives of the Sart-Kalmyks,” Oirats of China (Xinjiang) and Kalmyks of Russia are considered. The authors focus on figurative parallelisms found in Sart-Kalmyk proverbs that contain a zoonym component. They analyze the parallelism of the world of animals (birds, insects) and people in the context of the overall meaning of Sart-Kalmyk proverbs. Zoonyms in figurative parallelisms primarily serve to characterize human characters. The Sart-Kalmyk paremias identified by the authors have correspondences in the oral works of the Olets, Oirats of China (Xinjiang) and the Kalmyks of Russia, which is evidence of their common ethnic origin. The authors stress that the figurative parallels in Sart-Kalmyk proverbs reflect the national values and worldview of the Sart-Kalmyks. This study is especially important due to the impending loss of the Sart-Kalmyks’ language and folklore tradition.
Christmas in Spain: Who Brings the Presents?
Authors: Кожановский Александр Николаевич
Published: November 2022

В статье рассматривается тема сказочных персонажей, которые, согласно традиции, приносят детям подарки в дни рождественских праздников в современной Испании. Автор показывает, что образы фантастических существ, от которых ждут подарков в праздничные дни, вовсе не едины в пределах страны, но составляют несколько вариантов, существенно различающихся и даже конкурирующих между собой. На уровне Испании в целом речь идет о «своих» по происхождению Волшебных Королях и «чужеродном» Папá-Ноэле, на уровне составляющих страну регионов - о местных «рождественских дедах» (и не только дедах), олицетворяющих областную культурно-историческую идентичность в противовес общеиспанским образцам. Автор описывает наиболее известных из них: каталонского Тьо-де-Надаля, баскского Оленцеро, галисийского Апальпадора, кантабрийского Эстеру, астурийского Лангулеру, леонскую Старуху-с-горы, - сравнивает причины и истории их появления и обретения ими нынешнего облика и «подарочных» функций, показывает резкое возрастание их статуса и популярности среди населения в последние десятилетия и отмечает, что практически во всех случаях сторонники утверждения местного «самобытного» варианта действуют в рамках алгоритма, позволяющего говорить об «изобретенной традиции» (в терминологии Э. Хобсбаума).

This article deals with the theme of fairy-tale characters who bring gifts to children during the Christmas holidays in modern Spain. The author shows that images of fantastic creatures are not at all uniform within the country but comprise several variants that differ significantly and even compete with each other. At the level of Spain as a whole, we are talking about “native” Magic Kings and the “alien” Papa Noel; at the regional level - about local “Christmas grandfathers” personifying local cultural and historical identity, as opposed to the common Spanish models. The author describes the most famous of these characters (Catalan Tió de Nadal, Basque Olentzero, Galician Apalpador, Cantabrian Esteru, Asturian L’Anguleru, Leonese Old Woman from the Mountain); he compares the history and causes of their appearance as well as their “gift-giving” function; and, finally, he shows a sharp increase in their status and popularity in recent decades and notes that in almost all cases, supporters of a particular local “original” variant act within the framework of an algorithm that allows us to talk about an “invented tradition” (in the phrase of E. Hobsbawm).
Christmas Meals in the South of Italy: Semantic Keys to Reading
Authors: Фаис-Леутская Оксана Давидовна
Published: November 2022

В настоящей статье объектом исследования выступают традиционные рождественские трапезы областей Юга Италии. Опираясь на собственные полевые материалы, автор анализирует гипотезы, выдвинутые рядом исследователей, согласно которым Италия во всех своих регионах переживает сегодня кризис религиозности, а праздничные, в первую очередь рождественские, трапезы становятся апофеозом профанного чревоугодия, а также, в глазах населения, и обоснованием для утверждения его парохиальной идентичности, ее знаком. Исследование социально-алиментарных особенностей этих застолий в контексте народной среды Юга Италии, не опровергая ни исторической важности роли алиментарной культуры в регионе, ни традиций повышенного гастрономического гедонизма, ни растущей значимости для населения праздничного стола как фактора поддержания локальной самости, позволяет оспорить тезис об обесценивании былых религиозных представлений и мировоззренческих установок, а также гипотезу о десакрализации Юга и «обмирщении» традиционной празднично-ритуальной пищи. В ходе исследования раскрываются особенности прочтения населением сакрального смысла пищевых артефактов рождественского меню, обусловленные исповедуемым населением так называемым народным христианством; обращение к алиментарной тематике позволяет вскрыть глубинные пласты верований, восходящие порой к доисторическим эпохам, и обрисовать специфику архаичных принципов общения людей с богами.

This article examines traditional Christmas meals in the regions of southern Italy. Based on field materials, the author analyzes hypotheses put forward by a number of researchers, according to which Italy is currently experiencing a crisis of religiosity in all of its regions, reflected in holiday meals, primarily Christmas ones. These are alleged to represent the apotheosis of profane gluttony as well as an assertion of parochial identity in the eyes of the population, its justification and sign. Study of the socio-alimentary features of these feasts in the context of the folk environment of southern Italy does not refute either the historical importance of the role of alimentary culture in the region, or increased gastronomic hedonism, or the importance of the festive table as a factor in maintaining local selfhood. Nevertheless, it does allow the author to challenge the notion of the devaluation of former religious beliefs and worldviews, as well as the hypotheses about the desacralization of the south of Italy and the secularization of traditional festive and ritual food. The study reveals the peculiarities of the local population’s understanding of the sacred meaning of the Christmas menu that reflects so-called “folk Christianity.” The examination of these alimentary practices allows us to uncover deep layers of belief, sometimes dating back to prehistoric times, and to outline the archaic principles of communication between people and the gods.
The Representation of Italian Arbëresh National Identity in the Culinary Code of Their Traditional Christmas Menu
Authors: Сулоева Марина Александровна
Published: November 2022

Статья посвящена традиционной рождественской кухне арбрешей - потомков албанцев, мигрировавших в Южную Италию с территории Балканского полуострова в XV в. За пять веков своего существования арбрешская гастрономическая культура стала в значительной степени интегрированной с итальянской, но традиционная пища арбрешей продолжает оставаться важным маркером их идентичности. Рождество является одним из важнейших религиозных праздников для арбрешей. Совместная рождественская трапеза, в которой принимают участие не только члены одной семьи, но и родственники, друзья и просто знакомые, выражает идею солидарности, обмена и дружбы и служит поводом вспомнить о многовековых традициях, которые чтут все представители диаспоры и передают из поколения в поколение. Рождественское меню арбрешей отличается разнообразием блюд и способов их приготовления. Несмотря на то что глобализационные процессы вносят свои коррективы в классические рецепты, арбреши по-прежнему сохраняют верность традициям, используя те же ингредиенты и способы приготовления, что и несколько веков назад. Благодаря этому их национальная кухня продолжает оставаться важным механизмом репрезентации и передачи арбрешской культуры.

This article is devoted to the traditional Christmas cuisine of the Arbëreshë people, descendants of Albanians who migrated to southern Italy from the Balkan Peninsula in the fifteenth century. Over the five centuries of its existence, Arbëresh gastronomic culture has become largely integrated with the Italian, but despite the rapid development of culinary globalization, traditional Arbëresh food continues to be an important marker of their identity. Christmas is one of the most important religious holidays for the Arbëreshë. These days, representatives of different generations gather at the same table. The Christmas meal, which is attended not only by members of the immediate family, but also by relatives, friends and acquaintances, expresses the idea of group solidarity, interchange and friendship and serves as an occasion to recall the centuries-old traditions that are honored by all members of the Arbëresh diaspora and passed down from generation to generation. The Arbëresh Christmas menu is distinguished by a variety of dishes and ways of preparing them. Despite the fact that globalization processes cause alterations in classic recipes, Arbëreshë strive to remain true to tradition, using the same ingredients and cooking methods as in centuries past. Thanks to this, their national cuisine continues to be an important mechanism for the representation and transmission of Arbëresh culture.

Published: November 2022

Objective: This study aimed to investigate clinical non-fermenting gram-negative isolates and antibiotic resistance profiles for three years in a tertiary hospital.Materials and Methods: A total of 3817 non-fermenting gram-negative strains isolated from various cultures between January 2017 and December 2019 in Balıkesir Atatürk City Hospital were investigated retrospectively. Identification and antibiotic susceptibilities were performed using conventional methods and PhoenixTM 100 system (Becton Dickinson, MA, USA).Results: A total of 2201 (57.7%) P. aeruginosa, 1283 (33.6%) A. baumannii-calcoaceticus complex, 202 (5.3%) S. maltophilia and 131 (3.4%) B. cepacia complex strains were identified. The majority of strains were isolated from intensive care units (54.5%), followed by internal medicine (33.4%) and surgical services (12.1%). All A. baumannii-calcoaceticus complex species showed over 70% resistance to most antibiotics. In addition to β-lactam antibiotic resistance (generally over 30%), resistance to fluoroquinolones (30.4%) seemed to have particular importance. Co-trimoxazole showed below 10% resistance in S. maltophilia isolates. In B. cepacia complex, ceftazidime resistance increased in years (2018, 22.2%; 2019, 67.0%). Conclusion: The issue of antibiotic resistance cannot be won by just developing novel antimicrobials, but also by increasing the efficiency of current ones. The first step is to “diagnose” the current condition, like local surveillance studies.

Objective: Neurological symptoms occur due to central and peripheral nervous system involvement with different mechanisms in coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). Microvascular thrombosis develops with prothrombotic activation along with the increase in cytokines in COVID-19 infection. We aimed to investigate the incidence of cerebrovascular disease and concomitant risk factors in COVID-19 positive patients.Materials and Methods: Acute and temporally related cerebrovascular diseases with a diagnosis of COVID-19 were evaluated. Cerebrovascular events were assessed in 4 groups as ischemic and hemorrhagic events, transient ischemic attacks, and cerebral venous thrombosis. Risk factors for cerebrovascular disease in these patients were also assessed, and which risk factors for cerebrovascular diseases in COVID-19 patients are high risk were examined.Results: Of the 1000 patients with COVID-19 disease were evaluated. Ischemic cerebrovascular disease and/or transient ischemic attack were found in 14 patients (1.4%). The most common symptoms related to COVID-19 were fever and respiratory distress in 14 patients with acute ischemic stroke diagnosed with COVID-19.Conclusion: COVID-19 increases the risk of stroke in patients with multiple risk factors. Close follow-up should be performed more carefully, especially in patients with pulmonary involvement and acute ischemic stroke, because mortality is likely to be higher.

Published: November 2022

Amaç: Uygun olmayan acil servis başvuruları, sağlık teşkilatlarımızın yaşadığı sorunlardan bir tanesidir. Çalışmamızda, T.C Sağlık Bakanlığı Sakarya İl Sağlık Müdürlüğü Sakarya Eğitim ve Araştırma Hastanesi acil servisinde triyaj sonrası yeşil alanda kabul edilen hastalara ve hekimlerine uygulanan anketten elde edilen veriler değerlendirilmiştir.Materyal ve Metot: Acil servis yeşil alanda değerlendirilen hastalara, sosyodemografik özellikleri ve aciliyet durumlarını belirlemek için sorulan soruların yanı sıra hastaları değerlendiren acil servis hekimine de sorduğumuz sorularla birlikte toplam 22 soruluk bir anket yapılmıştır.Bulgular: Toplam 273 katılımcının 130’u (%47,6) erkek, 143’ü (%52,4) kadındır. Hastaların acil servise başvuru durumları incelendiğinde hastaların büyük çoğunluğunun başvurularının uygunsuz olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Hastaların şikâyetlerinin en sık sindirim sistemini, en az ise psikiyatrik şikâyetlerden oluştuğu ve katılımcılar hastalandıklarında aile sağlığı merkezleri ve hastane polikliniklerinden daha çok hastane acil servislerine gitmeyi tercih ettikleri belirlendi. Başvuru nedenleri incelendiğinde, en fazla “sağlık durumlarından endişe duymaları sebebiyle polikliniklerde sıra beklemeden muayene olmak istemeleri amacıyla acil servise geldikleri tespit edildi.Sonuç: Çalışmamızdaki veriler acil servislere başvuruların uygunsuz olduğunu göstermektedir. Hastaların aciliyet algılarının büyük ölçüde yanlış olduğu ve acil servise yapılan başvurunun en sık nedeninin hastaların sağlık durumlarıyla ilgili duydukları endişeden dolayı hastane kısa süre içerisinde muayene olmak istemelerinin yer aldığı görülmüştür.
The Relationship of the Breastfeeding Attitude with Eating Attitude and Body Image of Obese and Non-Obese Mothers with Babies Hospitalized in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit
Authors: ÖZBEK Hilal , ERTEKİN PINAR Şükran
Published: November 2022

Objective: The research was conducted to determine the relationship between obese and non-obese mothers' breastfeeding attitudes with eating attitudes and body perception.Materials and Methods: The sample of the descriptive study consisted of 248 mothers (obese:120; non-obese=128). The data were collected with the Personal Information Form, Breastfeeding Attitudes of the Evaluation Scale (BAES), Eating Attitudes Test (EAT) and Body Perception Scale (BPS).Results: It was determined that 14.2% of obese mothers and 14.1% of non-obese mothers were prone to eating attitude disorders. There was a weak statistically significant negative relationship between BAES and the EAT scores of obese (r=–0.284; p=0.002) and non-obese women (r=–0.371; p=0.000). A statistically significant relationship was not determined between the BAES and BPS scores (p>0.05).Conclusion: While there was no relationship between breastfeeding attitude and body perception of obese and non-obese women, the tendency to eating attitude disorder decreased as obese and non-obese mothers’ positive breastfeeding attitudes increased. According to these findings, it is recommended to support a positive breastfeeding attitude in mothers.

This study attempted to identify associations between the TP (technical performance) of top-elite football (soccer) players according achievement of their teams and match outcome in UEFA Champions League (UCL). TP were evaluated by position specific InStat index which was calculated on the basis of a unique set of key parameters for each playing position. The participants (n = 179) were professional football players from teams that competed in the group stage of UCL in the 2020/21 season. Players were classified according to playing positions, and all data were obtained from 20 matches. Team achievement was defined by three criteria: (i) qualifying of the team from the group stage into the knockout stage of UCL, (ii) the final ranking of the team in the group, and (iii) total group points earned at the end of the group phase of UCL. The results indicated a higher InStat index when teams (i) won matches, (ii) qualified into the knockout stage, (iii) achieved a higher position on the table, and (iv) earned more group points. These findings confirmed that the InStat index is valid discriminator of TP between successful and unsuccessful teams.

Anaerobic performance is decisive in many sports. The Wingate Anaerobic Test (WAnT) is the most widely used test for the assessment of anaerobic performance to date. Performance in this test is influenced by many variables, including genetics. The aim of this review is to analyze the genes related to WAnT performance. A detailed search of four databases (Pubmed, Scopus, Web of Science and Cochrane Library) was conducted until February 2022. This literature search was implemented according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses statement. Nine eligible studies were selected from the 153 records identified. 3 articles for the ACTN3 gene, 2 for AMPD, one combined ACTN3 and AMPD, 1 article each for PPARA, UCP2 and MCT1. The genes ACTN3 and AMPD seem to report contradictory literature regarding its influence on WAnT peak power (PP), mean power and fatigue index. The MCT1 gene seems to have no influence, and the PPARA and UCP2 genes seem to have a positive relationship with PP.

We aimed to investigate whether the addition of whole-body vibration (WBV) to resistance training (RT) will be more beneficial in improving lower limbs muscle strength, power and sprinting performance than RT alone in young basketball players. We recruited 30 young basketball players to participate in four weeks of training and assessments. They were randomized into the WBV resistance training group (VRTG, n=15) and a conventional resistance training group (RTG, n=15), performed 3 times per week. At the beginning and end of the four weeks a back squat one-repetition maximum (1RMBS), Countermovement jump (CMJ), Squat jump (SJ), 10 meters (10m) and 20 meters sprint (20m) were performed. We found that: a) VRTG when added to RT can induce greater improvements in 1RMBS (percentage difference [PD], 8.4%, p < 0.001), CMJ (PD = 4.7%, p = 0.001) and SJ (PD = 1.6, p = 0.02) than RT alone. In contrary, significant time*group interactions were found for sprint times at 10m (p=0.08, F=3.2) and 20m (p=0.17, F=1.93). An additional 4-week WBV resistance training program proved effective in improving lower limb power and strength in young basketball players. When performed on a vibration platform (with accurate and constant vibration stimulus parameters), the resistance exercises were superior to their conventional forms and resulted in additional gains on measures of muscle power and strength, while sprint performance remained unchanged.

Physical activity plays a paramount role on children growth and schools emerged as a key setting for pro- moting physical activity during childhood. The aim of this study was to verify the effects of a high intensi- ty circuit training performed during regular physical education classes at schools. One hundred and five children aged 11–14 years (71 boys and 34 girls) were evaluated. The participants were split into a control group (boys: N = 47; girls: N = 16) and an experimental group (boys: N = 24; girls: N = 18). Besides the normal physical education classes, the experimental group also performed a high intensity circuit training for eight weeks, twice a week, at the beginning of the lesson. A pre- post-test was performed. Cardiorespiratory (20 m shuttle run test ) and a set of strength variables were evaluated. Percentage of fat mass was used as a somatic indicator. The 20 m shuttle run test presented a significant time effect, but not a time X sex, time X group, and time X weight status interactions. Conversely, the strength variables presented a significant time X group interaction (significant differences between groups). Percentage of fat mass presented a significant time effect, but not a significant time X group interaction. Data showed that adding a high intensity circuit training to physical education classes would result in a significant increase in muscular fitness performance in children, but cardiorespiratory fitness may not present the same magnitude of improvement. High in- tensity circuit training programs (performed during regular physical education classes at schools) seem to present a positive and significant effect in physical fitness parameters as well as reducing the percentage of fat mass.
