Soccer is a popular sport worldwide, especially in Brazil; therefore, several studies have tried to make a profile of injuries and players more prone to it; however, this kind of study is rare in the northern region of our country. The general aim of this study was to analyze the incidence of musculoskeletal injuries on professional soccer players of Remo Club. Methods: 27 professional soccer players of Remo Club were analyzed during the State Championship of Pará in 2010. Data were collected through verification of records and application of a semi-coded questionnaire to the athletes and a; statistical analysis was subsequently applied. Results: By analyzing the sample, it was found that most of the injuries were contractures and contusions, the most affected body site was the thigh and the knee and the athletes who suffered the most injuries were the midfielders. Conclusion: Several muscles injuries have occurred; therefore, assistance of the medical staff is needed, since this kind of injury does not occur due to trauma, but rather due to the movements imposed to the players during games and training. Thus, adequate physical preparation can reduce the incidence of this type of injury.
The aim of the present study was to identify markers of oxidative stress in populations exposed to mercury through an integrative review. This is an integrative review study carried out from June to August 2022. The databases selected for the search for articles were the Virtual Health Library- VHL (Lilac's), PubMed, Scielo and Science direct. Some resources available in the databases were used, being the “Research Articles” resource in the ScienceDirect database; the “Clinical Trial” features on PubMed; the filters “Health Sciences”, “Biological Sciences” in the Scielo database and a controlled clinical trial resource in the VHL. After an active and careful search for studies, five articles were included in the results table. The data showed in most studies that mercury is able to change the levels of biomarkers of oxidative stress, such as GPx, GSH, GST, MDA, PON-1 and lower red blood cell oxygen levels. It is concluded that mercury is a chemical agent that compromises the antioxidant system and reduces the functional and compensatory capacity of the exposed organism. However, more clinical studies are necessary for a better understanding of the damages and damages to biological systems, mainly arising from long-term exposure.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
