“…Petroianu et al, 35 observed a relationship between a lack of physical or intellectual stimulation and dementia in 303 elderly individuals aged 80 and over living in the community. The results indicated that individuals who did not practice any such activity had a relative risk of 4.27 of developing dementia when compared with those who practiced intellectual activity, and of 2.21 compared with those who practiced physical activities.…”

Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between participation in advanced activities of daily living (AADLs) and cognitive performance in communitydwelling elderly persons. Method: The data presented is drawn from the population-based study entitled Frailty Profile of Elderly Brazilians (FIBRA-Unicamp). The sample comprised 2,549 older adults without cognitive impairments suggestive of dementia. Data was collected relating to socio-demographic characteristics (sex, age, years of education and family income), health status (number of diseases and depressive symptoms), cognitive performance (Mini-Mental State Examination -MMSE) and self-reported social, physical and intellectual AADLs. Results: Mean MMSE scores were significantly higher among men, younger individuals and those with more years of education, higher income, fewer diseases and fewer depressive symptoms. Multivariate linear regression analysis and hierarchical regression analysis showed that years of education, family income and participation in intellectual AADLs were positively associated with cognitive performance. Conclusion: The findings suggest that these factors may have a protective role in cognitive aging and that participation in intellectual AADLs can represent a feasible strategy for the promotion of mental health among older adults.

“…The subjects were classified according to the Barthel Index (Table 2) and divided into total dependence (< 20), serious dependence (20)(21)(22)(23)(24)(25)(26)(27)(28)(29)(30)(31)(32)(33)(34)(35), moderate dependence (40-55), light dependence (≤ 60) and independence (100). Most of the subjects, 40.90%, were classified with light dependence.…”

Objective: To evaluate the functional capacity and quality of life (QoL) of the institutionalized elderly from an ICF perspective. Method: A cross-sectional observational analytic study was conducted with 22 elderly residents (77.9 ± 9.41 years) of a long-stay care institution in Curitiba, Paraná. The following assessment instruments were applied: the Barthel Index, the Nottingham Health Profile Questionnaire, and the International Classification of Functioning, Disability, and Health (ICF). Analysis of the data was done by measures of central tendency (mean) and dispersion (standard deviation). The ICF was analyzed by the distribution of relative and absolute frequencies. Results: The majority of the sample had medium cognitive status and light functional dependency. The domain that most interfered with the elderly's QOL was physical ability, energy level, sleep, and emotional and social pain, respectively. The ICF frequency distribution showed aspects not observed in the conventional assessment of the participants; in particular, it showed great specificity in the following functions: mental, sensory, and pain, the digestive, metabolic, and endocrine systems, psychomotor, movement, personal care, support and relationships, and individual activities. Conclusions: It is expected that the ICF will be adopted and used in various areas of health, including long-stay care facilities and multidisciplinary teams, so that professionals, through a unified and standard language, may intervene in the health of the individual as a whole.

“…3,4 Achados da literatura demonstraram relação positiva do nível de atividade física com as condições de saúde, como uma melhor mobilidade e menor propensão a quedas, impedindo no desenvolvimento e progressão de doenças crônicas e incapacitantes, benefícios na saúde psicológica e cognitiva e melhor percepção de saúde. [5][6][7][8] Apesar dos inúmeros benéficos para a saúde, a prevalência de pessoas consideradas insuficientemente ativas nos países de renda alta, média e baixa é elevada, variando de 18% a 41% para os homens e 48% a 21% para as mulheres. 9 Esses escores aumentam com a idade, sendo 19% entre pessoas com 55 a 64 anos e 32% nos indivíduos acima de 65 anos.…”

“…31,32 Tal associação pode ser esclarecida em razão de que elevados níveis de atividade física auxiliam na prevenção e redução do déficit cognitivo, através do aumento nos níveis de fatores neurotróficos cerebrais, estimulando o processo de formação de novos neurônios (neurogênese), além do processo de formação de sinapses entre os neurônios do sistema nervoso central (sinaptogênese). 7 Mizukami et al (2013) 33 encontraram uma prevalência de quedas em idosos japoneses residentes em áreas rurais de 38%, no presente estudo verificou-se que 73% dos indivíduos apresentaram queda no último ano. Em pessoas idosas, estudos verificaram a relação entre o histórico de quedas e o nível de atividade física, constatou-se que, indivíduos insuficientemente ativos apresentaram maior histórico de quedas, quando comparados com os idosos que atingiram as recomendações da prática de atividade física.…”

Modelo do estudo: Estudo transversal. Objetivo do estudo: Analisar a associação entre indicadores de saúde em idosos ativos e insuficientemente ativos. Metodologia: Estudo realizado em indivíduos com 60 anos ou mais, residentes na área rural de Jequié – BA, Brasil, cadastrados no programa Estratégia Saúde da Família do distrito de Itajurú. Foram analisadas as características sociodemográficas, comportamentais, estado de saúde, histórico de quedas, estado cognitivo e Índice de Massa Corporal (IMC). Para análise dos dados, utilizaram-se procedimentos da estatística descritiva, testes Qui-quadrado, teste “t” para amostras independentes e U de Mann-Whitney (nível de significância utilizado pd”0,05). Resultados: Foram entrevistados 95 idosos, sendo 55 mulheres e 40 homens com idade entre 60 e 96 anos (73,5 ± 9,4). A prevalência de inatividade física foi de 40%, mostrando-se superior entre os idosos que relataram viver sozinho, que apresentaram déficit cognitivo, que não sabiam ler e escrever, e com histó- rico de quedas no último ano. Os idosos mais jovens e com menor IMC eram mais ativos, quando comparados com seus pares. Conclusão: Os idosos que não alcançaram as recomendações de níveis adequados de atividade física apresentaram condições de saúde mais desfavoráveis. Recomenda-se a implementação de políticas públicas para promoção da atividade física no intuito de melhorar as condi- ções de saúde, em especial os idosos residentes de áreas rurais
