    Aims and background: We attempted to determine the best method of performing the exercises in rehabilitation after breast cancer surgery and their influence on postoperative complications. Currently, there are no guidelines for these exercises. The scope of this study was to evaluate the effect of two schemes of physiotherapy exercises (directed or free) on shoulder function and lymphatic disturbance in postoperative rehabilitation. Subjects: Sixty women who underwent a modified radical mastectomy or quadrantectomy with axillary dissection were randomized into two groups. Methods: The physiotherapy technique used was kinesiotherapy. The directed group performed physiotherapy following a regimen of 19 exercises. The free group performed the exercises following the biomechanical physiological movements of the shoulder without a previously defined sequence or number of repetitions. Results: The averages of the flexion, abduction and external rotational movements of the shoulder showed better recovery with statistical significance in the directed group compared to the free group. There was no significant difference between the groups in lymphatic disturbance. Conclusion: At the end of 42 days of follow-up, the movements of flexion, extension, abduction and external rotation of the shoulder were better rehabilitated in the directed group. The two schemes of exercises were not different with regard to lymphatic disturbance.921556

    PROPÓSITO: Este estudo compara os efeitos do treinamento de força (TF) com ou sem a suplementação de lipídios ômega 3 (W-3) ou triglicérides de cadeia média (TCM), nos indicadores metabólicos em um teste de exaustão (TE). MÉTODOS: Grupo W-3 (GW-3: n = 7, 26,7 ± 6 anos de idade; 82,6 ± 10kg) e grupo TCM (GTCM: n = 5, 18,8 ± 1,3 ano de idade; 74,6 ± 9,7kg) com 11 meses mínimos em TF. Houve dois momentos de TE: depois de 28 dias somente com TF e coletas de sangue antes (M1a) e após (M1d), e após mais 28 dias de TF mais a suplementação com W-3 ou TCM e repetindo o mesmo procedimento (M2a e M2d). RESULTADOS: O hematócrito (Ht), osmolalidade (Os), sódio (Na+) e pressão de dióxido de carbono (PCO2) não tiveram mudanças significativas em nenhum momento, grupo ou D M2 (P > 0,05). A pressão de oxigênio (PO2) aumentou significativamente após TE nos dois momentos e grupos (P < 0,05). Glicose e bicarbonato (HCO3) tiveram aumento no M1 para o GW-3 e o HCO3 no M2 para o GTCM (P < 0,05), sem outras mudanças. A lactato desidrogenase (LDH) aumentou significativamente somente no M2 para o GW-3 (P < 0,05) e o pH caiu no M1 para ambos grupos (P < 0,05), sem outras mudanças significativas. CONCLUSÃO: Os TE per se alteraram a maioria dos indicadores metabólicos, mas houve grande desvio padrão. O teste induziu a acidose e a suplementação de ácidos graxos não interferiu.<br>PROPÓSITO: Este estudio compara los efectos de entrenamiento de fuerza (TF) con o sin la suplementación de lípidos omega 3 (W-3) o triglicéridos de cadena media (TCM), los indicadores metabólicos en un test de agotamiento (TE).

RESULTADOS: El hematocrito (Ht), osmolalidad (Os), sodio (Na+) y presión de dióxido de carbono (PCO2) no tuvieron cambios significativos en ningún momento, grupo de D M2 (P > 0,05). La presión de oxígeno (PO2) aumentó significativamente después TE los dos momentos y grupos (P < 0,05).

CONCLUSIÓN: Los TE per se se alteraron en la mayoría de los indicadores metabólicos, mas ha habido un gran desvío padrón. El test indujo una acidosis y la suplementación de ácidos grasos no interfirió.<br>OBJECTIVE: This study compares the effects of strength training (ST) with or without supplementation of omega-3 lipids (W-3) or medium chain triglycerides (MCT) in metabolic indicators in the exhaustion test (ET). METHODS: The subjects 12 males with minimum 11 months of ST of experience were divided in group W-3 (GW-3: n = 7, 26.7 ± 6.0 years old; 82.6 ± 10 kg) and group MCT (GMCT: n = 5, 18.8 ± 1.3 years old; 74.6 ± 9.7 kg). There were 2 moments of ET: after 28 days only with ST and blood collection samples before (M1b) and after (M1a), and after 28 more days of ST plus supplementation with 4 g/d of W-3 or 4 g/d of MCT repeating the same procedure (M2b and M2a). RESULTS: The hematocrite (Ht), osmolality (Os), sodium (Na+) and PCO2 showed no significant change at any moment, group or D M2 (P > 0.05). The PO2 increased significantly after ET in two moments and groups (P < 0.05). The glucose and HCO3 had significant increase in M1 to GW-3 and HCO3 in M2 to GMCT (P < 0.05), without other changes. The LDH increased significantly only in M2 to GW-3 (P < 0.05) and pH decreased in M1 to both groups (P < 0.05), without other significant changes. CONCLUSIONS: The ET per se altered the major metabolic indicators but a great standard deviation occurred. The tests induced acidosis without influencing fat acids supplementation
