title: Evaluation of the physicochemical characteristics of brown sugar with added very high polarization raw sugar

description: Abstract In Brazil, the only quality standard required for brown sugar by specific legislation is the polarization value. However, this value (90% polarization) does not represent the reality of the products found for sale on the market. In addition, procedures such as the addition of very high polarization (VHP) raw sugar has become commonplace, since this changes the final quality of the product and its processing. The development of new quality standards for brown sugar is essential, thus this work evaluated the quality of brown sugar produced with and without the addition of VHP, both with and without pH correction, in order to provide subsidies that could aid in updating the quality standards for brown sugar in Brazil. The results obtained demonstrated there was no interaction between the raw material (sugarcane juice with different initial soluble solids contents) and the process used (addition of VHP with and without pH correction) influencing the analyzed physicochemical characteristics, except the humidity, in which the process of addition of VHP sugar accompanied by pH correction resulted in products with lower moisture content.

title: The acute hypotensive effect of resistance training performed with machines vs free weights in normotensive men

description: Abstract AIMS To analyze if different resistance training (machine vs free weight) would have different acute hypotensive effect in active and normotensive individuals. METHODS Fifteen male volunteers (39.2±2.5 years) performed two different resistance exercise protocols, one on machinery and one with free weights for the similar muscle groups and volume (sets x repetitions). Systolic blood pressure (SBP) and diastolic blood pressure (DBP) were measured at rest and during 60 minutes after the sessions. RESULTS There was no interaction between (treatments vs time) for SBP (F 70, 84 = 0.9445, p = 0.595) and DBP (F 70, 84 = 0.5743, p = 0.991). However, significant differences for time for SBP (F 14, 84 = 7.058, p = 0.001) and DBP (F 14, 84 = 3.296, p = 0.001), and treatment for SBP (F 5, 6 = 291.1, p = 0.001) and DBP (F 5, 6 = 13.29, p = 0.003) were varified. CONCLUSION Our findings indicate that both resistance training (machine or free weight) induce a similar hypotensive response for SBP in normotensive men.

title: Fluoride retention in saliva and in dental biofilm after different home-use fluoride treatments

description: This single-blind, randomized, crossover study aimed at assessing the long-term fluoride concentrations in saliva and in dental biofilm after different home-use fluoride treatments. The study volunteers (n = 38) were residents of an area with fluoridated drinking water. They were administered four treatments, each of which lasted for one week: twice-daily placebo dentifrice, twice-daily fluoride dentifrice, twice-daily fluoride dentifrice and once-daily fluoride mouthrinse, and thrice-daily fluoride dentifrice. At the end of each treatment period, samples of unstimulated saliva and dental biofilm were collected 8 h after the last oral hygiene procedure. Fluoride concentrations in saliva and dental biofilm were analyzed using a specific electrode. The fluoride concentrations in saliva and dental biofilm 8 h after the last use of fluoride products did not differ among treatments. The results of this study suggest that treatments with home-use fluoride products have no long-term effect on fluoride concentrations in saliva and in dental biofilm of residents of an area with a fluoridated water supply.

title: Association between tooth loss and overweight/obesity among Brazilian adults: the Pró-Saúde Study

description: The aim of this study was to evaluate the association between tooth loss and overweight/obesity in an adult Brazilian population. It is a cross-sectional study comprising 3,930 adults [1,744 men and 2,186 women; median age of 40 y (ranging 20-59); 16.9% obese; 7.3% almost all or all teeth missing]. Data were collected using a self-administered questionnaire for tooth loss (4 categories), diet, access and use of health services, socioeconomic factors, health habits and behaviors, demographics and anthropometric measurements. Multiple ordinal logistic regressions were performed. In comparison with adults with BMI &lt; 25 kg/m2, the overweight (BMI ≥ 25 and &lt; 30kg/m2) and obese individuals (BMI ≥ 30 kg/m2) showed a greater odds of tooth loss (OR = 1.6, 95% CI 1.4-1.9 and OR = 2.1, 95% CI 1.8-2.5, respectively). After adjusting for potential confounders, overweight and obesity showed no statistically significant associations with tooth loss, with OR = 0.8 and OR = 0.9, respectively. The results of this study are consistent with the hypothesis that the association between overweight/obesity and tooth loss can be explained by known, common risk factors.

title: Ultrasound for improving the preservation of chicken meat

description: Abstract The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of power ultrasound on the microbiota of chicken meat. Samples were treated under the following conditions of frequency and power: 20 kHz and 27.6 W/cm2; 40 kHz and 10.3 W/cm2; 850 kHz and 24.1 W/cm 2. Microbial counts were done before the ultrasound treatment, immediately after and following 7 days of aerobic storage at 4 °C. The results indicate that high intensity ultrasound helps inhibit the growth of lactic acid, mesophilic and psychrophilic bacteria present in chicken meat at the ultrasound frequency levels used in this study. The number of mesophilic bacteria decreased with the ultrasound probe at 20 kHz and 27.6 W/cm2 in relation to the treatment with higher frequency and less intensity. In conclusion, high-intensity ultrasound has a bactericidal effect. Therefore, it can be useful in the preservation of meat products and thus play an important role in the food industry.

title: Color assessment by different techniques of gilthead seabream (Sparus aurata) during cold storage

description: Abstract Overall objective of the study was assessment for freshness parameters of gilthead seabream (Sparus aurata). The freshness was determined by two conventional method (i.e. Minolta color measurement method) was compared with a novel machine vision technology (i.e image color analysis method). The quality characteristics related to the freshness of the fresh fish are traditionally based on the color measurements of the whole fish by using Minolta color measurement method. This study aimed to compare the use of the image analysis method to see whether the freshness of seafood can be measured more accurately. Our analysis proved more exact and reliable results in the freshness evaluation of the Sparus aurata based on the color changes in the eyes, gill and skin of the fish. This study revealed that image analysis can be successfully used for the assessment of fish freshness by measuring the color parameters of images captured from skin, gill and eye of the fish during cold storage. It is easy and practical to use image color analysis method in the quality control evaluation of fish freshness measurement. This analysis method can be suitable for use in continuous process at the seafood processing factories (e.g. before packaging to sort out fresh vs old fish automatically).

title: Multimorbidity, depression and quality of life among elderly people assisted in the Family Health Strategy in Senador Guiomard, Acre, Brazil

description: Abstract This study analyzed the association between multimorbidity, depression and quality of life among the elderly in the Family Health Strategy (FHS). A cross-sectional study was conducted among the elderly in the FHS in Senador Guiomard (State of Acre). The study employed the Geriatric Depression Scale (GDS-15) and the Quality of Life Questionnaire (WHOQOL-BREF). Differences in descriptive variables in elderly people with and without multimorbidity were estimated using Pearson’s chi-squared test, while the associations between multimorbidity and depression and quality of life were estimated using the logistic regression technique. It was seen that elderly people with depression represented 27% of the sample, this being more prevalent among elderly people with multimorbidity than those without, the former being twice as likely to be subject to depression. Likewise, individuals with multimorbidity had a greater chance of worse quality of life in the physical, social and total quality of life domains (all with p ≤ 0.010), though not in the environmental domain (p = 0.493). Thus, multimorbidity in the elderly is associated with the presence of depression and poor quality of life, which imposes the challenge on the FHS of guaranteeing the elderly living out their senescence without suffering and diminished quality of life.

title: Hazards of Repeat Pregnancy during Adolescence: A Case-control Study

description: Abstract Objective To evaluate the social, obstetric and psychological risk factors related to repeat pregnancy in teenagers. Methods A case control study conducted at Centro de Atenção à Saúde Integral da Mulher (Caism, in the Portuguese acronym), in Campinas, Brazil, from 2015 to 2017. Three groups were selected: a case-group of adolescents who had repeat pregnancy and two control-groups, one consisting of adolescents who had delivered at first time and another one of adult women with more than one deliveries. Participants were asked about habits, socio-demographics characteristics, reproductive and obstetric history and assessed psychological issues. Results Ninety women were enrolled, 30 in each study group. Adolescents with repeat pregnancy have lower self-esteem scores and more ineffective contraceptive use. When compared with teens at first delivery, they had less schooling level (odds ratio [OR] 4.03 [1.37-11.8]), more school abandon (OR 8.16 [2.36-28.2]) and drugs use (OR 4.97[1.39-17.8]). Non-white skin color (OR 6.2 [1.15-41.0]), drugs use (OR 17.5 [2.62-116.6]) and first sexual intercourse under 15y (OR 18.0[2.82-115.0]) were found as higher risk factors for repeat pregnancy when comparing adolescents and adults.Moreover, adolescents withmore than one gestation had lower self-esteem and greater susceptibility to unplanned pregnancy. Conclusion There was an association between repeat pregnancy among adolescents and lower education, early onset of sexual activity, non-white skin color, low use of contraception and increased use of drugs.

title: Quality changes in reared, hot-smoked meagre (Argyrosomus regius Asso, 1801) during chill storage at 4 ± 1 °C

description: Abstract The aim of this study was to investigate quality and nutritional changes in reared meagre after the use of hot smoking technology. Hot smoking method was applied to the meagre and the resulting smoked fish were used to produce fillets, which were stored in refrigerator after being vacuum packed. As a result of chemical component analysis, it was seen that the fat content was low. In particular, the PUFA contents of meagre were found to be very high (35.53% Control). During storage, changes in fatty acid composition and the chemical, sensory and microbiological changes were analyzed. In terms of the chemical quality indicated, pH, TBA and TMA values didn’t exceed limit values during the storage of both fresh (6.25, 0.44 mgMDA/kg and 4.50 mg/100g) and hot smoked fish (6.23, 1.12 mgMDA/kg,5.57mg/100g respectively), but the TVB-N value exceeded limit values at day 56 of storage for hot smoked samples (39.50mg/100g). According to microbiological limit values accepted for seafood fresh and hot smoked meagre lost consumption characteristics after day 7 and day 35 of storage, respectively. Meagre was determined to be appropriate for the hot smoking process, based on the quality analyses, especially sensory analyses.
