In this direction we focused our study subject concerning the regular physical exercise under the physical perspective. First we have done a literature review on the possible benefits stretching, as a modifier instrument of the flexibility physical capacity in its aspects. The main aim of this research was to analyze the effectiveness of a stretching physical exercise program, on the joint mobility, through the use of Active the Static method and Static Liabilities. The sample was composed of 16 women, between 22 and 30 years of age who join the " Alongamento:uma pratica saudavel" couse, three times a week, 60-minute-session. The tests had included shoulders, trunk, hip and knees flex moviments. The data collected had two phases the initial and final with an interval of ten weeks, and we have worked with descriptive statistics and the resultes have shown a quantitative improvement in flexibility. We can consider that this corporal practice has presented positive results when applied in a ten weeks period, resulting in an joint amplitude increase.

We evaluated 120 elderly outpatients (≥60 years), considering sociodemographic data, cognition by the Mini-Mental State Examination, Activities of Daily Living (ADL), Instrumental Activities of Daily Living (IADL), self-assessment of memory, depressive symptoms, number of medical consultations, and probability of death within one year. Cluster analysis, chi-square or Fisher's exact test, and Mann-Whitney test were used as statistical analysis to compare the variables between the groups (p < 0.05). The mean age was 76.81 (±7.56) years; 66.7% were women; 63.33% were independent for ADL and 68.33% were dependent for IADL; 31.67% presented depressive symptoms; 30% presented cognitive impairment; 56.67% reported difficulty of remembering recent events; 83.33% had no difficulty emembering ancient events; 6.67% died within one year. It was possible to observe a profile consisting predominantly of younger elders, more educated, with more difficulty of remembering recent and ancient events, worse self-rated memory, and who died in greater proportion. The second profile consisted predominantly of older subjects, with higher percentage of illiteracy, less memory complaint, and no evolution to death. The study registered the existence of a group of elderly people who survive to older age with better cognitive performance. This finding is probably related to the greater resilience of these individuals.

Objetivo Identificar relações entre massa e força muscular com o estado nutricional e a capacidade funcional em idosos da comunidade. Método Estudo transversal, envolvendo 323 idosos. A avaliação da composição corporal foi realizada por absorciometria (DEXA) e antropometria. A capacidade funcional foi avaliada pelas Atividades Instrumentais de Vida Diária, pela velocidade da marcha (VM) e Time Up and Go (TUG). Resultados Nesta amostra, o índice de massa magra (IMM) se mostrou associado aos indicadores do estado nutricional (IMC, CP e CC), além de ter apresentado importante correlação com a força de preensão palmar (FPP). A FPP esteve relacionada à VM e ao TUG. A análise de regressão identificou associação entre o IMC e o IMM (p<0,001), bem como entre a VM e a...

Com funcao metabolica e funcional, a CC sofre mudancas significativas na velhice com impacto na saude, capacidade funcional e representa um fator preditor a mortalidade. Nesta perspectiva, esta tese contemplou a elaboracao de quatro artigos, os quais atenderam aos seguintes objetivos. Artigo 1: abordou a revisao da literatura referente a CC na velhice. Artigo 2: analisou os fatores associados aos componentes da CC. Artigo 3: avaliou a prevalencia e os fatores associados aos perfis/fenotipos da CC. Artigo 4: investigou a associacao entre a CC e a fragilidade. Metodos: trata-se de um estudo transversal, com amostra aleatoria de idosos com ?65 anos, de Amparo-SP. Foram avaliadas as variaveis sociodemograficas, socioeconomicas, aspecto cognitivo, doencas cronicas, medicacao, antropometria, fragilidade e CC. Adotou-se a estatistica descritiva e inferencial que possibilitou a comparacao de grupos e a analise de regressao. O nivel de significância estatistica foi de p>0,05. Resultados: O artigo 1 constatou a etiologia multifatorial das alteracoes da CC e a existencia de fenotipos da CC na velhice. O artigo 2 indicou associacao da massa muscular com sexo, forca de preensao, gasto calorico, perda de peso e medicacao. As variaveis preditivas para a massa ossea foram: sexo, forca de preensao, gasto calorico, fadiga e tabagismo. A massa gorda esteve relacionada com idade, sexo, numero de criterios de fragilidade, perda de peso, medicamentos, escolaridade e tabagismo. Foi preditivo para a variabilidade da % de gordura o sexo, idade, perda de peso, medicamentos e tabagismo. O artigo 3 identificou uma prevalencia de 63,40% de idosos com o fenotipo obeso, 20,43% de normais (nao obeso e nao sarcopenico), 8,94% de obesos sarcopenicos e 7,23% de sarcopenicos. Houve associacao dos fenotipos normal, sarcopenico e obeso sarcopenico com a perda de peso; e relacao entre os perfis obeso e obeso sarcopenico com o nivel de atividade fisica. O artigo 4 verificou que 12,77% dos idosos eram frageis, 48,09% pre-frageis e 39,15% nao-frageis. A analise entre a CC e os niveis de fragilidade, apontou que os idosos nao-frageis apresentaram maior massa muscular e maior massa ossea comparada aos pre-frageis e frageis. Os frageis apresentaram maior % de gordura que aqueles nao-frageis. Conclusao: Os dados sinalizam os segmentos de idosos mais susceptiveis a desfechos adversos. Assim, a avaliacao da CC na velhice e de extrema importância, pois fornece informacoes preciosas sobre a condicao de saude. Considera-se que os resultados apresentados possam contribuir nas acoes preventivas e terapeuticas direcionadas a assistencia ao idoso. Abstr

Changes in BC do not occur uniformly among the elderly, existing profiles or phenotypes BC associated with aging, such as sarcopenic, obese and obese sarcopenic. Understanding the relations between the CC in the elderly is of extreme relevance for preventive, diagnostic and treatment measures.
