Prevalência de Hipertensão Arterial em pessoas com mobilidade física prejudicada: implicações para a enfermagem Prevalencia de Pressión Alta en personas con movilidad física afectada: implicaciones para la enfermería Prevalence of High Blood Pressure in people with impaired physical mobility: nursing implications

A hipertensão arterial é uma das principais causas de morte em todo o mundo, e pode resultar da redução ou ausência do tônus muscular esquelético. Objetivou-se identificar aspectos epidemiológicos da hipertensão arterial em pessoas com deficiência física e o conhecimento desses indivíduos acerca do controle dos fatores de risco para hipertensão arterial. Participaram 40 pessoas com deficiência física. Utilizou-se um questionário abordando fatores de risco para hipertensão arterial. Os dados foram analisados à luz de multireferenciais. Detectou-se 30% com sobrepeso ou obesidade; 75% com PA inferior ou igual a 120/80 mmHg; 25% hipertensos e 20% hipertensos de estágio I. Os sujeitos desconhecem os riscos para hipertensão. Seus hábitos e estilo de vida oferecem riscos à saúde. Conclue-se que a hipertensão em pessoas com deficiência física alcança maior gravidade e representa um desafio aos profissionais de saúde, pois o controle desse agravo imprescinde da adesão do paciente ao tratamento.<br>La hipertensión arterial es una de las principales causas de muerte en todo el mundo y puede resultar de la reducción o ausencia del tonos muscular esquelético.

The aim was to identify the epidemiologic aspects of hypertension in physical disabled people and the knowledge of these individuals about the control of the risk factors to the hypertension. Took part 40 physically handicapped. It was used a questionnaire approaching, the risk factors to hypertension. The data were analized to the light of multireferecials. It was detected 30% were with overweight or obesity; 75% with BP inferior or equal to 120/80 mmhg. And 25% hypertensive and 20% Hypertensive of stage I. The individuals do not know about the risks to hypertension. Their habits and life style offer risks to health. The hypertension in physically impaired people reaches a higher seriousness and it represents a challenge to health professionals, because the control of this injury it is indispensible the adhesion of the pacient to the treatment

Associations of total legume, pulse, and soy consumption with incident type 2 diabetes: federated meta-analysis of 27 studies from diverse world regions

Background The consumption of legumes is promoted as part of a healthy diet in many countries but associations of total and types of legume consumption with type 2 diabetes (T2D) are not well established. Analyses across diverse populations are lacking despite the availability of unpublished legume consumption data in prospective cohort studies. Objective To examine the prospective associations of total and types of legume intake with the risk of incident T2D. Methods Meta-analyses of associations between total legume, pulse, and soy consumption and T2D were conducted using a federated approach without physical data-pooling. Prospective cohorts were included if legume exposure and T2D outcome data were available and the cohort investigators agreed to participate. We estimated incidence rate ratios (IRRs) and CIs of associations using individual participant data including ≤42,473 incident cases among 807,785 adults without diabetes in 27 cohorts across the Americas, Eastern Mediterranean, Europe, and Western Pacific. Random-effects meta-analysis was used to combine effect estimates and estimate heterogeneity. Results Median total legume intake ranged from 0–140 g/d across cohorts. We observed a weak positive association between total legume consumption and T2D (IRR = 1.02, 95% CI: 1.01 to 1.04) per 20 g/d higher intake, with moderately high heterogeneity (I2 = 74%). Analysis by region showed no evidence of associations in the Americas, Eastern Mediterranean, and Western Pacific. The positive association in Europe (IRR = 1.05, 95% CI: 1.01 to 1.10, I2 = 82%) was mainly driven by studies from Germany, UK, and Sweden. No evidence of associations was observed for the consumption of pulses or soy. Conclusions These findings suggest no evidence of an association of legume intakes with T2D in several world regions. The positive association observed in some European studies warrants further investigation relating to overall dietary contexts in which legumes are consumed, including accompanying foods which may be positively associated with T2D.</p
