title: CIRCUIT TRAINING REDUCES CARDIOMETABOLIC RISK FACTORS IN WOMEN

description: ABSTRACT Introduction Combined training is more effective than an isolated modality in reducing cardiometabolic risk indicators. Objective To evaluate the effect of circuit training volume on anthropometric and biochemical risk indicators for cardiometabolic diseases in overweight women. Methods Thirty-two participants underwent 24 weeks of circuit training with free weights combined with aerobic exercise. The training volume during the 24 weeks was used to distribute the women into moderate-volume physical activity (MVA), low-volume physical activity (LVA) and control (CON) groups. Anthropometric indices (body mass, body mass index (BMI), waist circumference (WC), waist-hip ratio (WHR)), blood glucose, insulin, insulin resistance (HOMA-IR), total cholesterol (TC), triglycerides, HDL-c, and LDL-c were evaluated at the beginning of the program and after 12 and 24 weeks. Results There was no interaction between training volume and time for any of the variables studied, but the intervention time influenced body mass (p=0.013) and BMI (p=0.012), and there was a tendency for participation time to reduce body mass (p=0.063) and BMI (p=0.062) after six months of intervention. The volume of the physical activity affected HDL-c (p=0.037), being significant (p=0.030) in the comparison between the MVA and CON groups. Additionally, there was a downward trend in HDL-c after six months of intervention (p=0.073), with a smaller reduction observed in the MVA group, indicating a protective role of moderate physical activity in the reduction of this lipid fraction. The association between physical activity volume and participation time resulted in a clinical improvement in total cholesterol (χ2 = 5.453, p = 0.02), with a higher probability of reaching clinically adequate values in the MVA group (OR = 0.126; 95%CI 0.019 - 0.827). Conclusion Training volume improved cardiometabolic risk factors in overweight women. Level of evidence II; Therapeutic Studies - Investigating the Results of Treatment.

title: Adequacy of dental services in Paraná during the COVID-19 pandemic: a cross-sectional study

description: ABSTRACT This cross-sectional study aimed to identify adjustments regarding the use of Personal Protective Equipment and the organization of the work process in outpatient dental care in Paraná during the first year of the COVID-19 pandemic. The convenience sample included 1,105 oral health professionals (dental surgeons, oral health assistants, and dental hygienists) during the first year of the pandemic (August to October, 2020). An online form (Google Forms®) was sent by email by the Regional Council of Dentistry. COVID-19’s measures were compared between the types of dental services: ‘outpatient clinic of the Unified Health System – SUS’ (Primary Care, Dental Specialty Center, and Emergency Care), ‘private clinic’ and ‘other services’ (Sistema S, security forces, trade union, public and private hospitals, and teaching clinics). Professionals from SUS outpatient services reported more frequently: that they suspended elective care, avoided generating aerosols, and worked four-handed. Professionals from ‘private clinics’ used teleorientation and telemonitoring more regularly. In the ‘other services’, there was a more significant proportion reduction in work hours and handpieces autoclaving after each service. It is concluded that, despite the high adequacy of the measures to combat COVID-19, there was a difference in professional practice among the different types of dental services.

title: Self-care from the perspective by female sex workers to prevent and face the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic

description: Abstract The objective was to identify the meanings attributed to self-care and its relationship with the actions taken by female sex workers in preventing and coping with COVID-19. Qualitative study supported by the Self-Care Nursing theory. An in-depth interview was carried out with 30 female sex workers from the Alto Sertão Produtivo Baiano. The IRAMUTEQ software was used to analyze the speeches, with the Descending Hierarchical Classification dendrogram. Four classes were observed, revealing the meanings attributed to self-care: the idea that self-care promotes quality of life and well-being; money as a facilitating instrument for self-care actions, both in preventing COVID-19 and in coping with difficulties; in addition to the notion that self-care contributes to the care of those around them. It is concluded that the female sex workers demonstrated to understand the concept of self-care in association with the notion of precaution, while prevention is carried out through the recommendations made by competent bodies. Furthermore, a self-care deficit was noticed due to the conditions present in the sexual service and the difficulties imposed by the pandemic.

title: THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN LOWER LIMB STIFFNESS AND RUNNING ECONOMY IN CHILD SOCCER PLAYERS

description: ABSTRACT Introduction Lower limb stiffness has been shown to be associated with running economy (RE) in adults, but this relationship in children remains unclear. Objectives The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between lower limb stiffness, RE, and repeated-sprint ability in child soccer players. Methods Twenty-eight male child soccer players (mean age 11.8 ± 0.9 years) participated in the study. RE was determined by measuring the steady-state oxygen uptake (ml/min/kg) at submaximal running speeds of 8 and 9 km/h. Vertical and leg stiffness were calculated from the flight and contact time data obtained during two submaximal running tests. Additionally, vertical stiffness was measured during the maximal and submaximal hopping tests. All participants performed the repeated sprint test consisting of 10 × 20-m all-out sprints interspersed with 20-s active recovery. Results During both submaximal running tests, vertical (r= –0.505 to –0.472) and leg stiffness (r= –0.484 to –0.459) were significantly correlated with RE (p&lt; 0.05). Maximal (r= –0.450) and submaximal hopping stiffness (r= –0.404) were significantly correlated with RE at 8 km/h (p&lt; 0.05). Maximal hopping stiffness was significantly correlated with the best sprint time (r= –0.439) and mean sprint time (r= –0.496) (p&lt; 0.05). Vertical (r= –0.592 to –0.433) and leg stiffness (r= –0.612 to –0.429) at 8 and 9 km/h and submaximal hopping stiffness (r= –0.394) were significantly correlated with the fatigue index (p&lt; 0.05). Conclusions Current findings indicate that the lower limb stiffness may be an important determinant of both RE and repeated-sprint ability in child soccer players. Level of Evidence II; Diagnostic Studies - Investigating a Diagnostic Test.

title: TERMINOLOGICAL-DISCURSIVE APPROACH: FOR THE RESCUE OF TERMINOLOGY AND TERMINOGRAPHY IN THE TEACHING AND LEARNING OF LANGUAGES FOR SPECIFIC PURPOSES IN THE BRAZILIAN CONTEXT

description: ABSTRACT The aim of this text is to present some reflections on a proposal for an approach to Language Teaching and Learning for Specific Purposes, in order to rescue the relevant role of Terminology and Terminography for the learner of this type of teaching. The terminology has as its initial point the 1930s of the 20th century, especially from the doctoral thesis of the Austrian engineer Eugen Wüster. The Teaching of Languages for Specific Purposes, in turn, emerged three decades later together with the Communicative Approach and is established itself in the second half of the 20th century in the movement called English for Specific Purpose. In this first phase, the relationship between the two areas was quite explicit, because this teaching modality was centered on the lexical and grammatical record specific to the learner’s area. Through a literature review, such as Cabré (1999, 1993), Barros (2004), Gómez de Enterría (2009), Hutchison and Waters (1987); Aguirre Beltrán (2012), Ramos (2019), Dolz; Noverraz and Schneuwly (2004), we present a proposal, called “Terminological-Discursive Approach (ATD)”, of interdisciplinary character, which starts from the analysis of the learner profile, with needs and uses of the language in specific contexts, in which textual genres that are also specific circulate. Thus, we present some principles of ATD based on concepts such as “use of languages in specialized contexts”; “specialized textual genres” and “communicative-specialized competence”. In this way, we hope to contribute to the “revival” of Terminology and Terminography as sciences that can contribute productively to the Teaching and Learning of Languages for Specific Purposes (EALFE).
