Protocolo de assistência do serviço de condicionamento físico para indivíduos com doenças neuromusculares e musculoesqueléticas

Physical fitness supervised by Physical Education professionals inserted in a rehabilitation program for patients with neuromuscular and musculoskeletal disorders aims to increase muscle strength, improve motor coordination, dynamic balance, aerobic capacity, functional capacity and health-related physical fitness. This is an important intervention to prevent and mitigate the synergy between loss of physical function and exacerbation of various comorbidities that compromise functional independence, modify risk factors, increase quality of life and longevity with reduced mortality. The aim of this paper is to present the assistance protocol of the Physical Conditioning Service of the Institute of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation of the Clinical Hospital of the University of São Paulo Medical School (IMREA-HCFMUSP), designed for the intervention of physical exercises, respecting the profile and physical limitations of these patients, as well as observing their clinical markers.O condicionamento físico supervisionado por profissionais de Educação Física inserido em um programa de reabilitação para pacientes com distúrbios neuromusculares e musculoesqueléticos visa o aumento da força muscular, melhora da coordenação motora, equilíbrio dinâmico, capacidade aeróbia, capacidade funcional e da aptidão física voltada à saúde. Trata-se de importante intervenção para prevenir e atenuar a sinergia entre a perda de função física e a exacerbação de várias comorbidades que comprometem a independência funcional, modificar fatores de risco, aumentar a qualidade de vida e longevidade com redução da mortalidade. O objetivo desse artigo é apresentar o protocolo de assistência do Serviço de Condicionamento Físico do Instituto de Medicina Física e Reabilitação do Hospital das Clinicas da Faculdade de Medicina da Universidade de São Paulo (IMREA-HCFMUSP), elaborado para que a intervenção de exercícios físicos seja adequada, respeitando o perfil e limitações físicas desses pacientes, bem como na observação de seus marcadores clínicos

Protocolo de avaliação funcional de joelho em patologias ortopédicas

Existe uma grande dificuldade em se estabelecer critérios de progressão funcional nos exercícios de propriocepção e atividades esportivas durante o processo de reabilitação das patologias do joelho, sendo estes critérios ainda mais cruciais nos protocolos de reabilitação acelerada em atletas de alto nível. Para permitir que o atleta inicie o trote, corrida, saltos e retorne aos treinos necessitamos da quantificação de alguns parâmetros de função, como força, potência, resistência e agilidade. Desta forma evitamos os erros que decorrem de uma avaliação exclusivamente subjetiva e baseada em sintomas, ou de medidas totalmente vinculadas à função, como a utilização da medida do perímetro da coxa para inferir a função muscular

Trajetórias da Educomunicação nas Políticas Públicas e a Formação de seus Profissionais

Esta obra é composta com os trabalhos apresentados no primeiro subtema, TRAJETÓRIA – Educação para a Comunicação como Política pública, nas perspectivas da Educomunicação e da Mídia-Educação, do II Congresso Internacional de Comunicação e Educação. Os artigos pretendem propiciar trocas de informações e produzir reflexões com os leitores sobre os caminhos percorridos, e ainda a percorrer, tendo como meta a expansão e a legitimação das práticas educomunicativas e/ou mídia-educativas como política pública para o atendimento à formação de crianças, adolescentes, jovens e adultos, no Brasil e no mundo

NEOTROPICAL ALIEN MAMMALS: a data set of occurrence and abundance of alien mammals in the Neotropics

Biological invasion is one of the main threats to native biodiversity. For a species to become invasive, it must be voluntarily or involuntarily introduced by humans into a nonnative habitat. Mammals were among first taxa to be introduced worldwide for game, meat, and labor, yet the number of species introduced in the Neotropics remains unknown. In this data set, we make available occurrence and abundance data on mammal species that (1) transposed a geographical barrier and (2) were voluntarily or involuntarily introduced by humans into the Neotropics. Our data set is composed of 73,738 historical and current georeferenced records on alien mammal species of which around 96% correspond to occurrence data on 77 species belonging to eight orders and 26 families. Data cover 26 continental countries in the Neotropics, ranging from Mexico and its frontier regions (southern Florida and coastal-central Florida in the southeast United States) to Argentina, Paraguay, Chile, and Uruguay, and the 13 countries of Caribbean islands. Our data set also includes neotropical species (e.g., Callithrix sp., Myocastor coypus, Nasua nasua) considered alien in particular areas of Neotropics. The most numerous species in terms of records are from Bos sp. (n = 37,782), Sus scrofa (n = 6,730), and Canis familiaris (n = 10,084); 17 species were represented by only one record (e.g., Syncerus caffer, Cervus timorensis, Cervus unicolor, Canis latrans). Primates have the highest number of species in the data set (n = 20 species), partly because of uncertainties regarding taxonomic identification of the genera Callithrix, which includes the species Callithrix aurita, Callithrix flaviceps, Callithrix geoffroyi, Callithrix jacchus, Callithrix kuhlii, Callithrix penicillata, and their hybrids. This unique data set will be a valuable source of information on invasion risk assessments, biodiversity redistribution and conservation-related research. There are no copyright restrictions.

NEOTROPICAL CARNIVORES: a data set on carnivore distribution in the Neotropics

Mammalian carnivores are considered a key group in maintaining ecological health and can indicate potential ecological integrity in landscapes where they occur. Carnivores also hold high conservation value and their habitat requirements can guide management and conservation plans. The order Carnivora has 84 species from 8 families in the Neotropical region: Canidae; Felidae; Mephitidae; Mustelidae; Otariidae; Phocidae; Procyonidae; and Ursidae. Herein, we include published and unpublished data on native terrestrial Neotropical carnivores (Canidae; Felidae; Mephitidae; Mustelidae; Procyonidae; and Ursidae). NEOTROPICAL CARNIVORES is a publicly available data set that includes 99,605 data entries from 35,511 unique georeferenced coordinates. Detection/non-detection and quantitative data were obtained from 1818 to 2018 by researchers, governmental agencies, non-governmental organizations, and private consultants. Data were collected using several methods including camera trapping, museum collections, roadkill, line transect, and opportunistic records. Literature (peer-reviewed and grey literature) from Portuguese, Spanish and English were incorporated in this compilation. Most of the data set consists of detection data entries (n = 79,343; 79.7%) but also includes non-detection data (n = 20,262; 20.3%). Of those, 43.3% also include count data (n = 43,151). The information available in NEOTROPICAL CARNIVORES will contribute to macroecological, ecological, and conservation questions in multiple spatio-temporal perspectives. As carnivores play key roles in trophic interactions, a better understanding of their distribution and habitat requirements are essential to establish conservation management plans and safeguard the future ecological health of Neotropical ecosystems. Our data paper, combined with other large-scale data sets, has great potential to clarify species distribution and related ecological processes within the Neotropics. There are no copyright restrictions and no restriction for using data from this data paper, as long as the data paper is cited as the source of the information used. We also request that users inform us of how they intend to use the data
