The difference of chronological age in an age group is called Relative Age (RA) and its consequences on the performance of athletes is called Relative Age Effect (RAE). It is believed that the RAE among young athletes can affect their competitive success in many ways, even into adulthood. Thus, the objective of the present study was to investigate the EIR in all judo competitors of the national competitions of the year 2013, making the differentiation by age categories and the competitive performance. This study included 862 male athletes and 637 female athletes. The chi-square was used to compare the observed and expected values among quartiles, adopting significance as p < 0.05. A post hoc Bonferroni analysis was used to identify where the significant differences were (adjusted p < 0.00417). The results showed a significant difference in the male sub-15 categories (Q2 in G1: OV= 17, EV = 9.7, p = 0.001) and male sub-23 (Q1 in G3: OV= 37, EV = 10.1; p < 0.0001). In conclusion, the RAE was only identified in male athletes. However, there was great discrepancy between athletes born in the first semester and athletes born in the second semester.
O câncer consiste em uma enfermidade crônica, caracterizada pelo crescimento desordenado das células, o qual é resultante de alterações no código genético. Nesse momento de pandemia do novo coronavírus, pacientes em tratamento oncológico tendem a um maior isolamento social, devido às circunstâncias de saúde. A recreação terapêutica promove no âmbito hospitalar a estes pacientes um momento de descontração, lazer e promoção da saúde. Assim, neste estudo, são discutidos e apresentados os benefícios da ludicidade frente ao tratamento do câncer e à promoção da qualidade de vida, dos pacientes que realizam quimioterapia ambulatorial em um hospital público na cidade do Recife-PE, a partir do relato de experiência da implantação de gincanas durante a pandemia de Covid-19. Observa-se um trabalho eficiente e sério com base nessas intervenções, que proporcionaram boas experiências e momentos enriquecedores para o público envolvido.
