RESUMO O CrossFit se apresenta como um novo método de treinamento físico que vem ganhando popularidade desde sua criação. O objetivo deste estudo foi analisar o perfil de lesões em praticantes de CrossFit por meio de uma revisão sistemática da literatura. Utilizaram-se as recomendações da Declaração PRISMA para condução da revisão sistemática. A busca foi realizada nas bases de dados CINAHL, SciELO, Science Direct, SCOPUS, LILACS, PEDro, PubMed, SPORTDiscus e Web of Science. Avaliou-se a qualidade metodológica dos estudos, entre os quais dez foram considerados elegíveis. A prevalência de lesões nos praticantes de CrossFit variou de 5 a 73,5%, e a taxa de lesão variou de 1,94 a 3,1 lesões a cada 1.000 horas de treinamento. A região corporal mais acometida por lesões nos estudos selecionados foram os ombros, seguidos pelas costas e joelhos. Em relação aos fatores associados às lesões, destacou-se o tipo de exercício realizado e o tempo de prática de CrossFit. O sexo apresentou associação com a prevalência de lesões, estudos demonstraram que os homens apresentaram maior número de lesões em relação às mulheres. A idade esteve entre os fatores que não estiveram associados às lesões. Conclui-se que os ombros são a região corporal mais comumente acometida entre os praticantes de CrossFit, em indivíduos do sexo masculino e com lesões prévias, muitas vezes obtidas em outras modalidades. Ainda, que o CrossFit pode ser praticado com segurança por indivíduos de 18 a 69 anos.
Haemophilia is a genetic X-linked congenital haemorrhagic disorder characterized by a deficiency in the production of coagulation factors VIII and IX corresponding to haemophilia types A and B, respectively. 1,2 Although rare, with a frequency of 1 in 10 000 births, haemophilia can be found in about 400 000 people worldwide. 3 Approximately 85% of haemorrhagic episodes occur in the musculoskeletal system, hemarthroses and intramuscular haematomas, resulting in the main complications of haemophilia: pain, muscle atrophy and functional limitations that, in the long term, directly affect the performance of activities of daily living. 4,5 As a result, people with haemophilia (PWH) experience a more sedentary lifestyle, with lower muscle strength, aerobic and anaerobic endurance, and proprioception compared with healthy individuals. 6,7 A few decades ago, exercise was contraindicated for PWH due to low clotting factor concentrations and the high risk of bleeding.However, with the advent of concentrates for coagulation factor replacement as a form of treatment and prophylaxis to haemorrhages, Abstract Introduction: There is considerable evidence to indicate that exercise can have a positive impact on the treatment of people with haemophilia (PWH). However, there is a requirement for in-depth and comprehensive studies.Aim: This study aimed to analyse the evidence regarding the effects of exercise in PWH through an umbrella review of existing systematic reviews and meta-analyses.The secondary objective was to analyse the quality of the evidence.Methods: This umbrella review followed the PRISMA guidelines and was documented in the PROSPERO registry (CRD42019140785). We searched the PubMed, Web of Science, SPORTDiscus, Scopus, CINAHL and Cochrane Library databases.The methodological quality of the systematic reviews was assessed using AMSTAR 2.Results: Out of a total of 1030 systematic reviews, 10 fulfilled the criteria. Only one study was classified as high quality, and half of the selected studies were classified as low or critically low quality according to AMSTAR 2. Furthermore, most reviews investigated the effects of strength training and aquatic training, with positive results associated with low adverse events. Range of motion, strength and pain were the most investigated variables. All reviews showed overlapping studies. Conclusion:Exercise is an effective way to treat haemophilia and has a low incidence of related adverse events. However, caution is needed in the interpretation of the results due to half of the selected reviews showed low or critically low quality and only one have high quality.

Axillary web syndrome is characterized as a physical-functional complication that impacts the quality of life of women who have undergone treatment for breast cancer. The present study aims to verify the physiotherapy treatment available for axillary web syndrome after surgery for breast cancer in the context of evidence-based practice. The selection criteria included papers discussing treatment protocols used for axillary web syndrome after treatment for breast cancer. The search was performed in the MEDLINE, Scopus, PEDro and LILACS databases using the terms axillary web syndrome, lymphadenectomy and breast cancer, focusing on women with a previous diagnosis of breast cancer who underwent surgery with lymphadenectomy as part of their treatment. From the 262 studies found, 4 articles that used physiotherapy treatment were selected. The physiotherapy treatment was based on lymphatic drainage, tissue mobilization, stretching and strengthening. The four selected articles had the same outcome: improvement in arm pain and shoulder function and/or dissipation of the axillary cord. Although axillary web syndrome seems to be as frequent and detrimental as other morbidities after cancer treatment, there are few studies on this subject. The publications are even scarcer when considering studies with an interventional approach. Randomized controlled trials are necessary to support the rehabilitation resources for axillary web syndrome. ResumoA síndrome da rede axilar (ou cordão axilar) é uma complicação físico-funcional que interfere na qualidade de vida de mulheres que foram submetidas a tratamento para o câncer de mama. O objetivo do presente estudo foi verificar os tratamentos fisioterapêuticos disponíveis para a síndrome da rede axilar após o tratamento cirúrgico do câncer de mama no contexto da prática clínica baseada em evidências.

Objective This study aimed to review the existing literature concerning the psychological variables of CrossFit participants. Methodology This review followed the PRISMA guidelines and was documented in the PROSPERO registry (CRD42018091177). Six electronic databases (SCOPUS, PubMed, SPORTDiscus, Web of Science, EMBASE, and Cochrane) were searched from their inception through July 2020. The methodological quality of the studies was assessed. Results Thirty-four studies met the inclusion criteria. We observed an increase in satisfaction, clinical addiction, and enjoyment among participants related to exercise, social improvement, and high intrinsic motivation to participate for the purpose of enjoyment, challenge, and affiliation. Perceptions of effort were high among CrossFit participants. Some studies found that the reaction time was impaired after the CrossFit session, whereas others found no changes in mental health, self-esteem, and well-being after training. Conclusion Adherence and maintenance of the practice of CrossFit are related to psychological variables such as motivation and satisfaction of basic psychological needs. CrossFit participants demonstrated high perception of effort, intrinsic motivation, and reasons for practice such as enjoyment, challenge, and affiliation. The quality assessment demonstrated the need for more detail in the methods section of future investigations. Additional high-quality studies are needed to investigate the effects of CrossFit training on the mental health of participants.
Background. Recently, a growing interest has emerged in the role of attention and hypervigilance in the experience of pain. Shifting attention away from pain seems likely to reduce the perception of pain itself. Objectives. The present study has been designed to test the following overall hypotheses: (1) disposition to catastrophize, self-efficacy perceived in pain resistance (task self-efficacy), previous experiences concerning the tolerance of physical pain, and degree of impulsiveness are significant predictors of the decision to abandon a painful test such as the cold pressor test (CPT); (2) the manipulation of the attentive focus (internal or external) can influence the level of perceived pain. Methods. Effects of the manipulation of attentional focus (internal and external) on pain perception and response of trial abandonment were evaluated in a sample of university students (n = 246) subjected to the cold pressor test. Results. A significant effect (p < 0.05) was found through a test–retest comparison on the final level of perceived pain among subjects who had received instruction to externalize the focus of their attention (mixed factorial analysis of variance), but no significance was observed with respect to the decision to abandon the experiment. A general explanatory model of the abandonment behavior demonstrating overall good fit measurements was tested too. Conclusion. The abandonment of tests has been shown to be predicted mainly by catastrophic attitude. Attentive impulsiveness showed a further positive effect on catastrophic attitude. Perceived self-efficacy in the tolerance of pain limited learned helplessness, which in turn positively influenced catastrophizing.

Seus dados são essenciais para todos os profissionais que assistem ao paciente com neoplasia, uma vez que fornece informações sobre os procedimentos aplicados, permitindo elaborar o perfil de pacientes e direcionar a terapêutica a ser adotada. Objetivo: Avaliar a completude do preenchimento dos prontuários oncológicos da Maternidade Carmela Dutra nos anos de 2009 e 2010, com base nas variáveis do RHC. Métodos: Estudo descritivo exploratório, com dados de um banco secundário fornecido pelo RHC. Para análise dos prontuários foram utilizados pontos de corte identificando graus de incompletude de informações. Resultados: Dos 405 registros analisados, 8,9% estão na categoria ruim, 22,7% foram classificados como regular, 32,6% como bom e 35,8% na categoria excelente. Histórico familiar de câncer e etilismo permanece em grande parte dos casos ausentes nos prontuários. Conclusão: Evidencia-se a importância e a necessidade de melhoria dos registros médicos, com a estruturação de campos obrigatórios e a padronização do sistema de prontuários.Palavras-chave: oncologia; epidemiologia; sistemas de informação em saúde; registros de doenças. ABSTRACT Introduction:The Hospital Cancer Registry (HCR) is a systematic source of information aimed to improve the service provided to all cancer patients. Its database is essential for all professionals who attend to patients with cancer as it provides statistical data that allows to determinate the profile of patients, and so to direct the therapy to be adopted. Objective: To evaluate the completeness of the clinical and surgical oncology medical records of Maternity Carmela Dutra in 2009 and 2010, based on the variables of the HCR. Methods: A descriptive exploratory study was conducted with a secondary database provided by HCR. Cutoff points with different degrees were used for analysis of incompleteness of information from medical records. Results: Of the 405 records analyzed, 8.9% were in the poor category, 22.7% were classified in the fair category, 32.6% in the good and 35.8% in the excellent category. Family history of cancer and alcohol consumption remained largely the missing cases in the medical records. Conclusion: This study highlights the importance and need for improvement of medical records, with the structuring of required fields and standardization of medical records system.
The authors aimed to provide an overview of the evidence on the effects of exercise in people with Alzheimer’s disease through a comprehensive review of the existing systematic reviews and meta-analyses. A literature search was performed in CINAHL, Cochrane Library, EMBASE, PubMed, SPORTDiscus, Scopus, and Web of Science databases according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines. The AMSTAR-2-Tool was used for the quality assessment. Twenty-three reviews fulfilled the criteria. Most of the reviews investigated the effects of aerobic exercise on Alzheimer’s disease symptoms. The largest effects of exercise were seen in terms of improved cognition by multiple exercises. The majority of the reviews were rated as being of moderate quality and none were classified as having high quality. Exercise is an effective way to treat Alzheimer’s disease symptoms and has a low incidence of related adverse events. As most reviews were evaluated as low-moderate quality, caution is needed in the interpretation of the results.
