Sleep-related disorders, demographic variables (sex, age, ethnicity schooling), behavioral (leisure physical activity, alcohol consumption, smoking) analyzed by questionnaires.The prevalence was 46.7%,...

Objectives Physical activity and costs have been consistently related each other, but mostly in cross-sectional investigations. This study aims to investigate the relationship between changes physical level healthcare among older diabetic adults an 8-year follow-up study. Methods The followed 151 ≥50 years of age, for a period 8 years, who were patients Basic Health Care Units city Bauru (Brazil). Medical records consulted obtain information on costs. was assessed through interview. Data...

Introdução: A dor abdominal aguda é uma das queixas mais comuns em serviços de emergência, representando um desafio significativo para os profissionais saúde. Essa condição pode ter múltiplas etiologias, variando distúrbios benignos a situações potencialmente fatais, como apendicite ou perfuração intestinal. avaliação precisa e rápida do paciente crítico crucial, pois ser sinal condições que exigem intervenção imediata. abordagem inicial envolve anamnese detalhada exame físico minucioso,...

The main aim of this investigation was to verify the relationship variables measured during a 3-minute all-out test with aerobic (i.e., peak oxygen uptake [(Equation is included in full-text article.)] and intensity corresponding lactate minimum [LMI]) anaerobic parameters work) 400-m maximal performance. To measure force continually avoid possible influences caused by turns, effort performed tethered swimming. Thirty swimmers following tests: (a) swimming determine final (equivalent...

ABSTRACT Objective: To analyze the association of insufficient physical activity in different domains with sarcopenia or sarcopenic obesity patients aged ³50 years. Methods: The sample consisted 770 males and females. Sarcopenia was diagnosed when individual had: (1) low muscle mass strength; (2) walking speed mass; individuals were at risk sarcopenia. Muscle given by a predictive equation, then index (in kg/m²) divided height squared. strength, kg, measuring handgrip strength digital...

Objectives: The aim of this study was to investigate the associations between costs related productivity losses and its risk factors among users Brazilian National Health System. Methods: public cost associated with 342 adults has been estimated, taking into account a period 18 months. Costs loss were estimate using data provided by System (disability retirements) absenteeism. Modifiable unhealthy behaviors assessed through interviews (physical inactivity, alcohol consumption, smoking)...

This study aimed to test the reproducibility of maximal accumulated oxygen deficit (MAOD) values and VO2-intensity relationship parameters as measured during tethered swimming. 9 swimmers performed an incremental determine aerobic force (MAF), 6 submaximal efforts develop relationship, exhaustive effort MAOD. The tests were twice. measurements was tested using intraclass correlation (ICC), typical error (TE) coefficient variation (CV). High levels observed for MAF (TE=2.6 N; CV=4.3%;...

The relationship between physical activity and health care costs among adolescents is not yet clear in the literature.To analyze annual adolescents.The present sample was composed of 85 both sexes with ages ranging from 11 to 18 years (mean age 15.6 ± 2.1). Health were self-reported every month for 12 months, information on values verified local pharmacies, private plans, National Service. time spent different intensities objectively measured by accelerometers. Confounding variables were:...

Many factors are associated with sleep disorders causing an increase in health spending.The objective of this study was to analyze association and chronic diseases non-transmissible patients older than 50 years attended by Basic Health Care Units Presidente Prudente.Participated 363 patients.The history self-reported through the use a questionnaire, level physical activity evaluated Baecke quality assessed using Mini-Sleep Questionnaire.Anthropometric body composition data were collected...

Investigate whether obesity is responsible for costs due to productivity loss (PL) in adults, during 30 months of follow-up.Absenteeism and disability retirement were considered as PL. For classification obesity, body mass index (BMI) waist circumference (WC) values considered. The statistical software BioEstat (release 5.0) was used the significance level set at P value < 0.05.For men, BMI WC accounted ∼60% ∼30% (P = 0.001). women, this percentage represented ∼19% ∼8% WC, both 0.05....

AIMS To compare the profile of adults attended at primary care level Brazilian National Health System according to occurrence T2DM during 18 months follow-up. METHOD Longitudinal study carried out with 316 adults. and PA were assessed by questionnaires. Measurements weight, height waist circumference (WC) also performed. Healthcare expenditures based on demand services registered in medical records. Analysis variance (ANOVA) Tukey’s post hoc test was used, as well their similar for...

Abstract The aim of this study was to analyze the relationship between sleep pattern and healthcare expenditures in adults, as well identify whether physical activity, biochemical markers obesity affect relationship. sample composed 168 adults aged ≥ 50 years attended by two Basic Healthcare Units Presidente Prudente, SP, Brazil. Health expenditure, pattern, anthropometry, adiposity index, metabolic cardiovascular variables were assessed. Statistical analyses performed using Kruskal-Wallis,...

Critical power model can be performed in tethered swimming (i.e. critical force model). Although used to prescribe aerobic training, its determination depends on at least three exhaustive efforts altered days. In this context, previously studies have demonstrate that estimated by a single 3-min all-out test (3MT), which was not investigated yet. Thus, the aim of study compare parameters obtained during 3MT those traditional model.Seven swimmers (four female and male) underwent determine [CF]...

Abstract: Leisure-time physical activity seems relevant to prevent the development of chronic diseases and obesity. However, not much is known about economic burden these healthy behaviors, mainly in longitudinal designs. This study aimed analyze impact walking cycling on leisure-time adiposity healthcare costs among adults. was conducted at a medium-size Brazilian city included 198 participants with no missing data attended Unified National Health System. Cycling were assessed by...

The impact of metabolic syndrome (MetS) on healthcare costs remains unclear in the literature.
