Higiene do sono: cartilha
UFRA - Campus BelémNós, psicólogos da assistência estudantil, criamos este material para abordarmos sobre a higiene do sono. O que é, como realizar, quais os benefícios do sono e os problemas que a insônia pode causar. Além de algumas dicas para higienizar seu sono. Quando falamos sobre o sono, uma das primeiras coisas associadas é o descanso e esse pensamento não está de todo errado, parte da finalidade do sono é o descanso, mas
engana-se quem pensa que a atividade cerebral seja apenas de repouso, muito da atividade elétrica do cérebro é similar em complexidade a de quando estamos em estado de vigília (BRANDÃO, 2019), isso
significa que enquanto dormimos muitas coisas acontecem, uma delas é o sonho, mas ela é apenas uma parte, para sermos mais precisos o sono é dividido em sono REM e sono não-REM.We, student assistance psychologists, created this material to address sleep hygiene. What it is, how to do it, what are the benefits of sleep and the problems that insomnia can cause. In addition to some tips to sanitize your sleep. When we talk about sleep, one of the first things associated with it is rest and this thought is not at all wrong, part of the purpose of sleep is rest, but It is wrong to think that brain activity is only at rest, much of the brain's electrical activity is similar in complexity to when we are in a waking state (BRANDÃO, 2019), this
means that while we sleep many things happen, one of them is the dream, but it is only a part, to be more precise sleep is divided into REM sleep and non-REM sleep
Effects of 16 weeks of a physical exercise program on blood markers, functional autonomy and level of depression in elderly and old adults.
O objetivo foi analisar os efeitos de um programa de exerc?cio f?sico sobre marcadores sangu?neos,
autonomia funcional e n?vel de depress?o. Um total de 112 sujeitos com doen?as metab?licas controladas
por hipocolesterolemia e hipoglicemiantes distribu?dos em dois grupos participaram do estudo; grupo
composto por 54 membros com idade m?dia de 62,11 anos e grupo controle (GC) com 58 indiv?duos com
idade m?dia de 63,03 anos. Foi observado que a ur?ia, creatina e as vari?veis pot?ssio n?o apresentaram
diferen?a interessante entre os dois momentos do estudo, enquanto TGP e s?dio obtiveram redu??es nos
valores m?dios de 2,46 mg / dl e 10 mg / dl com grande efeito de ?p2 0,153, ?p2 0,43 e signific?ncia p
<0,047 e p <0,039 ao comparar os dois momentos entre os grupos exerc?cio / controle. A qualidade da
for?a entre os momentos pr? e p?s entre os grupos exerc?cio / controle mostrou um aumento de 2,53 kgf
de pequeno efeito de ?p2,23 para o grupo exerc?cio, enquanto o controle reduziu. Tamb?m houve diferen?as
entre o pr? e o p?s-treinamento nos indicadores de autonomia funcional dos grupos GC. O GE reduziu os
n?veis de depress?o em rela??o ao GC. Concluiu-se que o treinamento f?sico realizado por 16 semanas foi
eficaz na redu??o dos n?veis de s?dio, a vari?vel TGP, aumento dos n?veis de for?a dos membros superiores,
al?m de favorecer a melhora da capacidade funcional e reduzir os n?veis de depress?o.The objective was to analyze the effects of a physical exercise program on blood markers, functional
autonomy and level of depression. A total of 112 subjects with metabolic diseases controlled by hypocholesterolemia and hypoglycemics distributed in two groups participated in the study; group
composed of 54 members with mean age of 62.11 years and control group (CG) with 58 individuals with a
mean age of 63.03 years. It was observed that urea, creatine and potassium variables did not present an
interesting difference between the two moments of the study, while TGP and sodium obtained reductions
in mean values of 2.46 mg / dl and 10 mg / dl with a great effect of ?p2 0.153, ?p2 0.43 and significance p
<0.047 and p <0.039 when comparing the two moments between the exercise / control groups. The quality
of the force between the pre and post moments between the exercise / control groups showed an increase
of 2.53 kgf of small effect of ?p2,23 for the exercise group, while the control reduced. There were also
differences between pre and post-training in the functional autonomy indicators of the CG groups. The GE
reduced the levels of depression compared to the CG. It was concluded that physical training performed for
16 weeks was effective in reducing sodium levels, the TGP variable, increased strength levels of the upper
limbs, as well as improving functional capacity and reducing depression levels

Mercury exposure, malaria, and serum antinuclear/antinucleolar antibodies in amazon populations in Brazil: a cross-sectional study
BACKGROUND: Mercury is an immunotoxic metal that induces autoimmune disease in rodents. Highly susceptible mouse strains such as SJL/N, A.SW, B10.S (H-2(s)) develop multiple autoimmune manifestations after exposure to inorganic mercury, including lymphoproliferation, elevated levels of autoantibodies, overproduction of IgG and IgE, and circulating immune complexes in kidney and vasculature. A few studies have examined relationships between mercury exposures and adverse immunological reactions in humans, but there is little evidence of mercury-associated autoimmunity in humans. METHODS: To test the immunotoxic effects of mercury in humans, we studied communities in Amazonian Brazil with well-characterized exposures to mercury. Information was collected on diet, mercury exposures, demographic data, and medical history. Antinuclear and antinucleolar autoantibodies (ANA and ANoA) were measured by indirect immunofluorescence. Anti-fibrillarin autoantibodies (AFA) were measured by immunoblotting. RESULTS: In a gold mining site, there was a high prevalence of ANA and ANoA: 40.8% with detectable ANoA at ≥1:10 serum dilution, and 54.1% with detectable ANA (of which 15% had also detectable ANoA). In a riverine town, where the population is exposed to methylmercury by fish consumption, both prevalence and levels of autoantibodies were lower: 18% with detectable ANoA and 10.7% with detectable ANA. In a reference site with lower mercury exposures, both prevalence and levels of autoantibodies were much lower: only 2.0% detectable ANoA, and only 7.1% with detectable ANA. In the gold mining population, we also examined serum for AFA in those subjects with detectable ANoA (≥1:10). There was no evidence for mercury induction of this autoantibody. CONCLUSIONS: This is the first study to report immunologic changes, indicative of autoimmune dysfunction in persons exposed to mercury, which may also reflect interactions with infectious disease and other factors
