Objective To assess the physical activity levels of pregnant women and to examine characteristics associated with practice exercise activities daily living during pregnancy. Methods For this cross-sectional study, 1,279 were recruited within 72 hours postpartum. They interviewed about their socio-demographic data obstetric history administered self-report questionnaires Data on current pregnancy, labor, delivery, newborn outcomes collected from participants' medical records. analyze factors...
Objectives . To evaluate the association between physical exercise supervised in pregnant women with chronic hypertension and/or previous preeclampsia and maternal neonatal outcomes. Method Randomized controlled trial, which included 116 preeclampsia, considered risk of development. They were divided into two groups: study group that performed a stationary bicycle once week, for 30 minutes; intensity was (heart rate 20% above resting values), under professional supervision control not...
To evaluate the relation between changes body mass index (BMI) percentile, reflected in Atalah curve, and perinatal outcomes.
To assess the levels of physical activity and exercise practice, examine associated maternal characteristics; as well anxiety high-risk pregnant women.
Case series.The literature has emphasized the use of exercise as an intervention for individuals with lumbopelvic pain. However, there is limited information to guide clinicians in selection those sacroiliac (SI) joint dysfunction. Altered function gluteus maximus been found SI The objective this case series was assess effectiveness program directed at increasing strength clinical tests positive dysfunction.The eight subjects presented pain and evidence Each subject underwent 10 treatments...
Cognitive and motor impairment are well documented in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) patients, but their relationship has not been studied. This study evaluated compared cognitive performance during dual tasks related dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (PFC) changes oxygenated hemoglobin (ΔO2Hb), a proxy measure of neural activity, patients with COPD age-matched healthy individuals. Participants performed three single tasks: (1) backwards spelling task; (2) 30 m preferred paced...
The physical impairments (e.g., slower walking speed) in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) have been attributed to peripheral characteristics muscle atrophy). However, cognitive impairment may compromise motor control including automaticity. objective of this study was investigate PFC neural activity, evaluated using changes oxygenated hemoglobin (ΔO2Hb), during preferred paced (PPW) COPD and age-matched controls. ΔO2Hb from the left right dorsolateral measured...
Fetal growth restriction (FGR) and coagulopathies are often associated with aberrant maternal inflammation. Moderate-intensity exercise during pregnancy has been shown to increase utero-placental blood flow enhance fetal nutrition as well placental growth. Furthermore, is known reduce To evaluate the effect of moderate-intensity on inflammation development FGR, Wistar rats were subjected an regime before pregnancy. model inflammation-induced pregnant administered daily intraperitoneal...
To evaluate the efficacy of neuromuscular electrical stimulation on quadriceps muscle strength and thickness in liver transplantation patients.Phase-II, randomized, parallel-group, allocation-concealed, assessor-blinded, single-center controlled trial.Inpatient rehabilitation sector.Patients following living donor transplantation.The control groups received bilateral tibialis anterior muscles, respectively. Neuromuscular sessions both were conducted for 30 minutes per session, once day five...
[Purpose] The aim of the study was to evaluate benefits physical therapy for urinary incontinence in patients with multiple sclerosis and verify impact on patient's quality life. [Subject Methods] A case a 55-year-old female patient diagnosed mixed conducted. Physical sessions were conducted once week, total 15 sessions, making use targeted functional electrical vaginal stimulation, along active exercises pelvic floor muscles stimulation posterior tibial nerve, behavioral rehabilitation...
Studies that address dietary intake theme during pregnancy are generally centered on specific nutrients or patterns. However, the maternal profile according to degree of food processing is poorly understood. The purpose present study was describe high-risk pregnant women processing.A prospective cohort conducted at Prof. Dr. Jose Aristodemo Pinotti Women's Hospital (CAISM), University Campinas, Brazil, with in third trimester gestation.Data from 125 were collected between September 2017 and...
Gestational weight gain (GWG) may interfere in perinatal outcomes and also cause future problems throughout woman’s life. The aim of this population-based study is to evaluate the GWG Campinas city, southeast Brazil. A total 1052 women, who delivered three major maternity hospitals Campinas, were interviewed during postpartum period. general average was <mml:math xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" id="M1"><mml:mn>13.08</mml:mn><mml:mo>±</mml:mo><mml:mn>6.08</mml:mn></mml:math>....
OBJECTIVES:The aim of this study was to evaluate potential risk factors, including non-communicable diseases, for morbid obesity in women between 20 and 49 years age.METHODS: We performed a case-control with 110 morbidly obese adequate weight who were matched by age 1:1 case control ratio.All old non-menopausal.Possible factors evaluated through self-report questionnaire assessing socio-demographic, obstetric gynecological characteristics, presence diseases habits.Multiple logistic...
The objective of this study was to observe the immediate effect a knee brace with patellar hole versus without on pain perception in patients osteoarthritis. To accomplish this, double-blind, randomized controlled trial enrolled 108 divided into two groups (knee or hole). Patients were evaluated by Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) order measure their sensation, Timed Up and Go (TUG) test used evaluate ability walk, 8-m walking (8MWT) estimate speed. Both presented significant reduction...
Purpose: To provide an overview of skeletal muscle pathophysiology in pulmonary and cardiovascular conditions commonly managed by physical therapists. Summary Key Points: This review describes the associated with congestive heart failure, chronic obstructive disease, interstitial lung cystic fibrosis, intensive care unit–acquired weakness, immobilization, aging. Causes poor performance are multifactorial; disease-specific generic factors can contribute to etiology. The time course...
<b>Background:</b> Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a progressive lung disease associated with significant dyspnea and limited exercise capacity. The purpose of this systematic review was to synthesize evidence various interventions that aim improve capacity in IPF patients. <b>Methods:</b> Comprehensive searches were performed MEDLINE, Embase, CENTRAL, SPORTDiscus, PubMed PEDro. Two reviewers independently screened titles, abstracts full texts determine eligible studies....
