Background: Modern society is undergoing socio-cultural and economic transformations. Such changes lead to situations in which the human being has to choose between his health or practicality, directly affecting his quality of life. Pathologies with a high degree of morbidity such as depression, anxiety and chronic diseases immerse themselves in this equation, and are taking alarming proportions in society nowadays. Objectives: To identify the levels of depression and anxiety in individuals with chronic non-communicable diseases. Method: This is a cross-sectional and quantitative study, consisting of 23 young adults with 20-40 years old, hypertensive or with type 2 diabetes mellitus. The symptoms of depression and anxiety were evaluated using the Beck Depression Inventory and Beck Anxiety Inventory. Results: In hypertensive patients, the mean scores for the Depression Inventory were 15.0 and for diabetics 15.6. For the Anxiety Inventory the mean scores obtained for hypertensive patients were 11.6 and 8.1 for diabetics. For the most part, both groups were classified as without depression (43.48%) and mild depression (43.48%); And without anxiety (47.9%) and mild anxiety (34.8%). Significant differences (p = 0.050) were found only in the mean scores for the Beck Anxiety Inventory between groups. No significant differences were found between the sexes. Conclusion: We conclude that the studied sample, both hypertensive and diabetic patients, mostly present with depression and mild anxiety. And when compared between the sexes the women showed to be more vulnerable than the men.

Para isso é utilizada ferramentas e elementos básicos de avaliação para detectar aspectos a serem trabalhados. Objetivo: identificar os níveis de coordenação motora e esquema corporal de crianças de 2 a 6 anos do CMEI (Centro Municipal de Educação Infantil) de Silvânia-Go. Método: trata-se de um estudo transversal, com abordagem quantitativa, descritiva. Nesta pesquisa foram estudadas 65 crianças com idades entre 2 a 6 anos de ambos os sexos, sendo 32 do maternal e 33 do jardim. Foi utilizada a bateria de testes psicomotores de Oliveira que avaliou coordenação motora e esquema corporal das crianças. Resultados: as crianças avaliadas no jardim apresentaram pontuações inferiores para a coordenação (14,90 vs 24,33) e para o esquema corporal (9,57 vs 17,53) quando comparada com o maternal. Quando comparados os elementos psicomotores entre o sexo, as crianças do sexo feminino do jardim obtiveram resultados mais favoráveis do que as do sexo masculino. As meninas (41,2%) com idade entre 8 a 9 anos foram classificadas para a idade esperada e 11,8% para uma idade de 10 a 11 anos, muito superior ao esperado para a idade delas. Conclusão: no presente estudo foi possível identificar que as crianças possuem níveis de coordenação e esquema corporal compatíveis com a faixa etária, e que o sexo feminino obteve melhores resultados. ABSTRACTIntroduction: the aim of psychomotor intervention is to help children achieve adequate motor development for their age and to restore their possibilities of body formation. To this end, basic tools and evaluation elements are used to identify aspects that need work. Objective: to identify the levels of motor coordination and the body schema of children 2 to 6 years of age from the Municipal Early Childhood Education Center (CMEI) of Silvânia-Go. Method: this was a cross-sectional, quantitative, descriptive study. The sample comprised 65 boys and girls between the ages of 2 and 6 years, of with 32 in Pre-school and 33 in Kindergarten. The Oliveira battery of psychomotor tests was used to assess the children's motor coordination and body schema. Results: the Kindergarten group presented lower scores for coordination (14.90 vs 24.33) and body schema (9.57 vs 17.53) when compared to the Pre-school group. When comparing the psychomotor elements in terms of gender, Kindergarten girls obtained more favorable results than Kindergarten boys. The 8 to 9 year old girls (41.2%) were classified within expected age and 11.8% as age 10 to 11 years, much higher than expected. Conclusion: the present study identified that the sample of children presented coordination and body schema levels compatible with their age and that ...
