“…resolved all disagreements. Previous studies have found excellent between-reviewer agreement and reliability to assess risk of bias using the Munn et al checklist: Cohen's kappa ranging from 0.65 to 0.78, and intraclass correlation coefficient ranging from 0.83 to 0.94 24,25,26 .…”

Falls determine huge epidemiological, clinical, and economic burden in the older population worldwide, presenting high odds of severe disability. The present study aimed to estimate the prevalence of falls and associated factors in older Brazilians using a systematic review with meta-analysis. Searches were performed in SciELO, PubMed, LILACS, Web of Science, Scopus and PsycINFO databases with no date or language restrictions. Studies on community-dwelling older persons aged ≥ 60 years from both sexes and with a sample size of ≥ 300 participants included. Exclusion criteria were studies conducted specifically for older adults diagnosed with chronic disabling diseases that predispose them to falls. Risk of bias of included studies was assessed using a critical appraisal tool focusing on prevalence designs. A random-effects meta-analysis was used to pool the prevalence of falls across studies. Exploratory analysis was conducted examining subgroup estimates, prevalence ratios and meta-regression. Thirty-seven studies involving 58,597 participants were included. Twelve-month prevalence of falls was 27% (95%CI: 24.3-30.0), with significantly higher estimates in female than male (PR = 1.57; 95%CI: 1.32-1.86), in age group ≥ 80 years than age group 60-69 years (PR = 1.46; 95%CI: 1.15-1.84), and in participants from the Central region than participants from the South region (PR = 1.36; 95%CI: 1.10-1.69) of Brazil. Risk of bias scores did not impact heterogeneity in the 12-month meta-analysis. These estimates strongly support evidence-based public interventions to prevent falls in older Brazilians, especially in women and the oldest-old population.

This study aimed to verify the influence of childhood obesity on the regulation of cardiac autonomic modulation through the heart rate variability of obese and eutrophic children. The study consisted of a systematic review and meta-analysis in five PubMed, Scielo, Cochrane Library, BVS/Lilacs and Medline databases. Of the 60 articles found, 15 met the pre-established criteria. These studies were submitted to evaluation of methodological quality and risk of bias, and the Joanna Briggs Institute Critical Appraisal Checklist for Prevalence Studies (JBI) was applied. Meta-analysis was performed with the Review Manager 5.3 software for variables related to the alteration of cardiac autonomic modulation. Fifteen studies were used for meta-analysis, all were classified with high methodological quality (7 to 9 points), 13 presented results showing alteration of autonomic cardiac modulation in obese children in comparison with eutrophic children, and only two presented indicatives that refute this hypothesis. The present study identified reduction in the parasympathetic activity of the obese group in relation to the eutrophic group through the variables studied. The use of RMSSD, pNN50 and SDNN variables is recommended in future studies, as their results were significant for this meta-analysis.

“…The ergonomics of chair-table furniture represents an important factor for maintaining postural balance among students [10]. However, there is no consensus on the variables associated with changes in the spine in a sitting posture in children and adolescents [11]. Given the above, the objective of this study was to investigate the association between sitting posture while using school furniture and changes in the spine in adolescents.…”

ObjectivesTo investigate the association between sitting posture during the use of school furniture and changes in the spine in adolescents.MethodsA cross-sectional study was conducted with 240 students. The sitting position on school furniture was collected five times (3, 6, 9, 12, and 15 min). Postural alteration of the spine was identified by direct observation in front of a symmetograph. Screening for scoliosis was obtained by Adams test.ResultsThe presence of the factor away from the table presented higher percentages at times 3, 6, 9, and 15 min (24.2, 25, 29.2, and 26.7%, respectively). At 12 min, the highest frequency was the presence of poorly positioned lower limbs (25.8%). Associations were observed between poor sitting posture with changes in head anteriorization and retroversion of the pelvis among women and with thoracic hyperkyphosis in men.ConclusionsThe findings suggest that there are sex-dependent associations between poor sitting posture during use of school furniture and spinal alterations in adolescents.
