“…10 Selain itu, hambatannya adalah kurangnya kesadaran aktor (stakeholder) terkait mengenai potensi dampak kesehatan dari sektor diluar kesehatan baik positif maupun negative. 11 Sektor transportasi sesungguhnya dari sudut pandang tugas fungsi dan pokoknya bukan tanggungjawab sektor kesehatan, namun dari sektor transportasi tersebut berdampak pada masalah kesehatan masyarakat.…”

Healthy cities merupakan isu yang sangat kompleks, melibatkan banyak sektor dan berbagai disiplin ilmu, olehnya itu healthy cities hanya bisa dicapai kalau semua sektor yang terlibat dapat berkolaborasi dengan baik. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui cara yang dinilai efektif untuk mewujudkan terminal sehat. Penelitian ini menggunakan penelitian kualitatif dengan pendekatan participation action research (PAR). Pengumpulan data dilakukan melalui focus group discussion (FGD), wawancara mendalam. Informan penelitian yaitu ketua Persatuan Penyandang Disabilitas Sulawesi Selatan, Ketua Organisasi Angkutan Darat, perwakilan Solidaritas Perempuan Sulawesi Selatan, pengguna terminal, koordinator kebersihan Terminal, Humas Terminal, Direktur Operasional Terminal, ahli kesehatan masyarakat, pedagang dan Direktur Utama Terminal. Hasil FGD berkesimpulan bahwa kolaborasi stakeholder adalah kunci sukses dalam mewujudkan konsep terminal sehat.Kata Kunci : Stakeholder, indikator terminal sehat

“…27,28 Skills to address the social determinants of health and involvement in social determinants of healthspecific programming remained low over time. Although others 29 have documented a paucity of public health interventions that address CDP through action on the social determinants of health, the lack of improvement in skills is surprising given increasing recognition of the importance of the social gradient in chronic disease. 30,31 The growing pressure to tackle these 'upstream' causes may be tempered by major challenges including: current Canadian political and economic policies; 32 lack of evidence of effective interventions; 33 lack of clarity as to where on the pathway from determinants to outcomes public health would be expected to have impact; 34 significant barriers in partnering with sectors for collaborative cross-sectoral action; 35 and absence of systems to support the application of such programming so that health equity is built into planning and performance indicators.…”

Chronicling changes to the chronic disease prevention landscape in Canada's public health system 2004–2010

The collective impact of major shifts in public health infrastructure and numerous new chronic disease prevention (CDP) capacity-building initiatives that have taken place in Canada over the last decade is unknown. The objective of this study was to determine if CDP capacity (i.e., skills and resources) and involvement in CDP programming improved in public health organizations in Canada from 2004 to 2010. Data for this repeated cross-sectional study were drawn from two waves of a national census of organizations mandated to carry out primary prevention of chronic disease and/or promotion of healthy eating, physical activity and tobacco control. Medians for continuous variables and frequencies for categorical variables were compared across time. Neither resources nor level of priority for CDP increased over time. There was little difference in the proportion of organizations with high levels of skills and involvement in core CDP practices (i.e., needs assessment, identification of relevant practices, planning, evaluation). Skills and involvement in CDP risk factor programming showed some gains, some steady states and some losses. Specifically, skill and involvement in tobacco control programming declined markedly while the proportion of organizations involved in healthy eating and physical activity programming increased. Skills to address and involvement in programming related to social determinants of health remained low over time as did involvement in programming addressing multiple risk factors concurrently. The lack of marked improvement in CDP capacity between 2004 and 2010 against a backdrop of initiatives favourable to strengthening the preventive health system in Canada suggests that efforts may have fallen short.

“…6 The gym training is the modality that develops the most throughout the world, being used to improve aspects related to strength. 7 This modality uses the resistance training (washers, ballasts or plates of weights) existing in some apparatuses or implements to improve the physical capacity of the individual. It consists of resistance training, which can be performed with various loads, time, contraction range and controllable speed, presenting ease of adaptation to the physical condition of each, allowing even the training of sedentary people.…”

Thus, the present study sought to compare the muscular strengths of lower limbs in professional soccer and cycling athletes and gym participants, identifying the peak torque, total work, agonist/antagonist ratio and muscular power of each type of sport. As a hypothesis of this study, it is expected that the soccer group presents values superior to the other groups in the variables peak of torque and total work, and the cyclist group presents higher power and muscular relation in comparison to the evaluated groups. Material and methods Research characterizationThis observational cross-sectional case-study consists of pre-existing data collection in the Collucci Clinic Database and AbstractMuscular strength is a primary biomechanical property that allows for human movement and can be defined as the ability of the muscular tissue to develop maximum strength from a muscle or muscle group at a given speed. However, when applied to the sports practice, muscle strength becomes more extensive, it is currently used differently for each sports modality since muscle tissue can generate force in different conditions of movement and physical demands. This study aimed to analyze the muscular strength of lower limbs of professional soccer and cycling athletes comparing with individuals gym participants. Sixty male subjects were selected for a convenience sample aged 18 to 40 years. Participants were divided into groups of 20 individuals from their sports modalities, being: SG-Soccer group, CG-Cycling and GG-Gym, matched by age, weight, height, and BMI. The participants of this research performed an isokinetic evaluation of the knee region. The data obtained by the isokinetic analysis of the torque peak (N.m) total work (J), agonist/antagonist ratio (%) of the evaluated body segment were submitted to statistical analysis by the ANOVA test (p≤0.05) and Bonferroni test (p≤0.05). It was observed that at speeds of 60°/s and 180°/s there was a higher torque peak and total work for the SG and GG group with statistically significant values (p≤0.05), however, the agonist/antagonist ratio presented a higher relation for the CG group, the values were not significant (p≤0.05). In the multiple comparisons between the groups, it was observed that there was a difference in all groups evaluated (p≤0.05) at the speed of 60º/s (peak torque and total work) except for the group SG vs GG for flexor of the left knee. At the speed of 180º/s in torque peak was observed a significant difference (p0.05), except for SG and GG (bilateral flexors and extensors). The total work in 180º/s all groups there was difference (p≤0.05), except for CG vs GG (bilateral flexors) and the SG vs GG and GG vs CG (bilateral extensors). At speeds of 60º/s and 180º/s, the agonist/antagonist ratio was not significant for all groups evaluated. Thus, this study concludes that the SG group presented better values for all strength characteristics except for the agonist/antagonist ratio comparing from CG and GG group, followed for GG group.
