O objetivo foi verificar a influência do excesso de peso na força muscular e na funcionalidade de tronco de mulheres jovens. Estudo analítico transversal, com 54 mulheres de 18 a 30 anos, com excesso de peso (n=25), e eutróficas (n=29). A força muscular de tronco foi avaliada pelo dinamômetro isocinético e a funcionalidade de tronco e membros inferiores através do Bunkie Test. A análise dos dados foi realizada por meio do programa SPSS (Sciences Statistical Package for the Social Sciences). Como resultado, o presente estudo identificou que as mulheres com excesso de peso conseguem gerar pico de torque absoluto na 1º série (p=0,023), na 2º série (p=0,009), e no impulso na 2º série (p=0,009) maiores que as mulheres eutróficas. No entanto, quando o pico de torque foi analisado proporcionalmente ao peso corporal, estes valores foram menores, não sendo encontrada diferença entre os grupos (p0,05). Para o Bunkie Test, o grupo com excesso de peso apresentou pior desempenho na funcionalidade, principalmente nos movimentos de extensão, em decúbito dorsal, dos membros inferiores direito (p=0,011), esquerdo (p= 0,004) e na manutenção do tronco em decúbito lateral direito (p=0,008). Conclui-se que o excesso de peso pode alterar diretamente a força muscular e interferir na funcionalidade de tronco de mulheres jovens, sugerindo um desequilíbrio muscular em tronco e membros inferiores.Palavras-chave: Força Muscular. Obesidade. Funcionalidade. THE INFLUENCE OF OVERWEIGHT ON MUSCLE STRENGTH AND FUNCTION IN YOUNG WOMENABSTRACT: The aim of this study was to verify the influence of overweight on muscle strength and functionality in young women. This is a cross-sectional analytical study that was conducted with 54 women aged 18 and 30 years – twenty-five (25) were overweight and twenty-nine (29) were eutrophic. Muscle strength was assessed by an isokinetic dynamometer, whereas functionality was assessed by the Bunkie Test. Data analysis was performed using the SPSS program (Sciences Statistical Package for the Social Sciences). As a result, the present study identified that overweight women can generate absolute peak torque in the 1st grade (p = 0.023), in the 2nd grade (p = 0.009), and in the 2nd highest grade (p = 0.009) than eutrophic women. However, when the peak torque was analyzed proportionally to the body weight, these values were lower, and no difference was found between the groups (p 0.05). For the Bunkie Test, the overweight group presented worse performance in the functionality, especially in the extension movements, in the dorsal decubitus position, of the right lower limbs (p = 0.011), left (p = 0.004) and in the maintenance of the decubitus trunk right side (p = 0.008). It is concluded that overweight can directly affect muscle strength and interfere with the trunk function of young women, suggesting a muscle imbalance in the trunk and lower limbs.Keywords: Muscle Strength.

Sleep is a condition of the body and mind which typically occurs for several hours every night, in which the nervous system is inactive, the eyes are closed, the postural muscles are relaxed, and consciousness is practically suspended. Daytime sleepiness, or difficulty in maintaining a desired level of wakefulness, is frequently viewed by the general population as a common experience and predictable consequence of insufficient sleep. The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of excessive daytime sleepiness and factors associated with medical students in a private university in Malaysia. A cross-sectional study was conducted among year 1 to year 5 medical students. A self-administered questionnaire was used to collect data from the respondents. The data were analyzed using the Statistical Package of Social Sciences (SPSS) version 19.0. A minimum sample size of 400 was obtained. The percentage of Excessive day time sleepiness (EDS) among the students was 44% (176 of 400). Association between EDS and other independent variables was seen by the Chi-square test with p-value < 0.05 considered as a significant association. Of the various factors determined, a statistically significant association was found between internet usage and EDS.

Objective: to know the sociodemographic and clinical profile of people with urinary incontinence in an outpatient clinic of a University Hospital. Methods: cross-sectional study, using a semi-structured form with 63 women whowere awaiting care at the gynecology and urology outpatient clinics, between the months of July and August 2019. The data were processed in the software Statistical Package for the Social Sciences – SPSS 20.0. Results: interviews were carried out with women aged between 19 and 77 years. Of these, 55.6% maintained an active sex life; 85.7% had pre-existing disease; 69.8% presented urinary loss when coughing, sneezing, smiling, putting on weight and/or making efforts; 12.7% need to urinate as soon as they feel like it; and 17.5% had loss of urine in both situations. About 35% sought consultation due to low bladder and/or loss of urine; 27% had 4 to 5 pregnancies. Among the risk factors associated with urinary incontinence, 28.6% had diabetes mellitus, 61.9% had arterial hypertension, 82.5% used continuous medication, 11.1% was obese, 34.9% reported constipation problems and 74.6% underwent pelvic surgery. Conclusion: it was concluded that all women in the study had more than one risk factor for developing urinary incontinence, reinforcing their multifactoriality, as well as the importance of a holistic and multiprofessional treatment.

BACKGROUND: Abnormal excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS) has been reported worldwide, but too little is known about EDS and its determinants in Search and Rescue (SAR) populations. We aimed to determine the prevalence of abnormal EDS and contributing factors among Royal Norwegian Air Force (RNoAF) SAR helicopter personnel.METHODS: In this cross-sectional study, a total of N = 175 RNoAF SAR personnel completed an electronic survey including socio-demographic and lifestyle questions. The Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS) was used as both a continuous and categorical outcome variable to measure EDS.RESULTS: Abnormal EDS defined by ESS was found in 41% of the participants in this study. We observed no associations between socio-demographic and lifestyle factors and abnormal EDS in this study. DISCUSSION: There is a high prevalence of abnormal EDS in the current RNoAF SAR population. Despite this elevated level of fatigue, we did not find that the socio-demographic and lifestyle factors assessed in this study were associated with abnormal EDS in RNoAF SAR helicopter personnel. Also unusually, the study cohort did not demonstrate higher scores in factors found to change ESS scores in similar study populations (e.g., caffeine use, tobacco use, exercise level). Further research is required to investigate other factors (organizational, operational) that may be associated with abnormal EDS in this and other SAR populations.Akter R, Larose TL, Sandvik J, Fonne V, Meland A, Wagstaff AS.

This study aimed to investigate the prevalence of excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS) and explore the association between free sugars intake and EDS. In this cross-sectional study, a total of 1517 middle school students (808 boys and 707 girls) aged 12~14 years were recruited. The study was conducted in Changsha city, China. Adolescents completed an online questionnaire, including the Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS), sleep characteristics, a 12-item Food Frequency Questionnaire (FFQ), and other self-reported information. The ESS score ≥ ten was defined as EDS. The anthropometric indices, including height, weight, and waist circumference, were measured and recorded by uniformly trained assistants. Statistical analyses included the Chi-square test and binary logistic regression model. The mean ESS score and free sugars consumption were 6.8 ± 3.9 points and 53.1 ± 44.7 g/d, respectively. The prevalence of EDS among adolescents was 22.5%, and more girls than boys had EDS (26.1% vs. 19.4%, p < 0.05). An exceeded free sugars intake was positively associated with EDS, with the adjusted Odds Ratio (OR) with its 95% Confident Interval (95% CI) of 1.366 (1.060~1.761, p < 0.05). EDS and excessive consumption of free sugars are commonly found among Chinese adolescents. Further studies are needed to confirm whether free sugars restriction can be meaningful to improve daytime drowsiness in those with EDS.
