RESUMO

The specific role of different strength measures on mortality risk needs to be clarified to gain a better understanding of the clinical importance of different muscle groups, as well as to inform intervention protocols in relation to reducing early mortality. The aim of the systematic review and meta-analysis was to determine the relationship between muscular strength and risk of cancer mortality. Eligible cohort studies were those that examined the association between muscular strength, as assessed using validated tests, and cancer mortality in healthy youth and adults. The hazard ratio (HR) estimates obtained were pooled using random effects meta-analysis models. The outcome was cancer mortality assessed using the HR (Cox proportional hazards model). Eleven prospective studies with 1 309 413 participants were included, and 9787 cancer-specific deaths were reported. Overall, greater handgrip (HR = 0.97, 95% CI, 0.92-1.02; P = .055; I2  = 18.9%) and knee extension strength (HR = 0.98, 95% CI, 0.95-1.00; P = .051; I2  = 60.6%) were barely significant associated with reduced risk of cancer mortality. Our study suggests that higher level of muscular strength is not statistically associated with lower risk of cancer mortality.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of treadmill training with body weight support on gait kinematics parameters in patients with PD using DBS. DESIGN: Twelve patients completed the protocols (age: 60.9±10.6 years; disease duration: 20±7 years; and time since DBS surgery: 20±4 months). The same set of patients underwent two trainings protocols and four gait analyses (before and after each training). They received eight weeks of treadmill training without body weight support (16 sessions) in conjunction with physiotherapy program followed by six weeks of wash out period, followed by eight weeks of body-weight-supported treadmill training in conjunction with a same physiotherapy program. The Gait Kinematic Analysis involved eight infrared cameras that detected 19 reflective spherical markers attached in limb lower of patients. Statistical analysis used the Wilcoxon test (p≤0.05). RESULTS: Both the training no showed significant differences in linear variables. As the angular variables, only training with support showed significant increase of ranges of motion: pelvis tilt, obliquity and rotation amplitude; hip adduction-abduction and rotation amplitude; percentage of peak flexion in swing phase; foot progression amplitude. CONCLUSION: The body weight supported treadmill training may promote increase of mobility of lower limbs during gait and it could be a targeted intervention for PD patients treated with DBS.

RESUMO

The effect of oral feeding on breathing pattern and ventilation was studied in 19 healthy term neonates in the semiupright supine position. Ventilation was measured with a nasal flowmeter, and sucking pressure via a modified nipple that permitted milk delivery. The feeding pattern in these infants consisted of an initial period of continuous sucking followed by intermittent sucking for the remainder of the feed. A significant reduction in minute ventilation (P less than 0.01) was observed during continuous sucking, and resulted entirely from a reduction in breathing frequency (P less than 0.01). Tidal volume did not change (P greater than 0.05), but prolongation of expiration (P less than 0.01) and shortening of inspiration (P less than 0.05) were also observed. During intermittent sucking, the minute ventilation was similar to that of the control period. However, smaller but significant changes in breathing frequency and in duration of inspiration and expiration persisted during intermittent sucking. Our results document a significant reduction in ventilation during the initial part of oral feeding in term neonates, and subsequent recovery with continued feeding. Depending on the magnitude of this reduction in ventilation, cyanosis and bradycardia may develop in some infants during oral feeding.
