The research was carried out in 2019 and 2020 in the western region of Parana and uses a non-probabilistic sample, based on primary data. The data were processed with the SPSS software and descriptive statistics were used to evaluate the results. The main methodology, however, was the use of data crossing (crosstabs), evaluating the proposed relationships. The results show relationships between culture and habits throughout the individual’s life with their obesity situation based on the BMI estimate. Notably, the frequency of physical activities since childhood and their stay in adulthood, provide conditions for better health conditions, based on the established indicator. Relationships involving family income were not relevant in the process related to habits and culture related to exercises. The answers show that the frequency of activities also provides the perception of physical and mental well-being. From these results, it is proposed that the theme be in evidence in elementary education. Keywords: culture, family habits, physical activities. Expandir Resumo Acessar Texto Completo

Prueba de micronúcleo en mucosa para la evaluación de toxicidad en perros por exposición al tabaco

Resumo: Abstract: It is necessary to study the mutagenic effect of passive smoking on animals, so that people can become aware of and avoid smoking near their pets. According to the World Health Organization, cigarette smoke is the largest domestic and environmental pollution agent, considering that the general population spends 80% of their time indoors, making the study relevant. One form of screening is chromosomal breakage identified by the micronucleus method assay on exfoliated oral epithelial cells to observe the pro-mutagenic effect of cigarette smoke on the oral mucosa of dogs exposed to smoking. Many studies have examined the effects of passive smoking on humans, but little has been studied in relation to domestic animals, although there is evidence of increased risk for lung cancer in passive smoke dogs. From this literature review, it was possible to observe a pro-mutagenic effect of cigarette smoke on the oral mucosa of dogs exposed to passive smoking.

Pesquisa de resíduos de antibióticos em leite in natura, pasteurizado e UHT

Resumo: The presence of antibiotic residues in milk may occur due to their deliberate addition to the animal's feed and the final product or, due to non-compliance with the latency period after administration of these drugs in dairy animals, thus leading to undesirable reactions to humans, such as hypersensitivity, bacterial resistance and imbalance of the intestinal microbiota. Thus, the objective of the research was to investigate the presence of antibiotic residues in fresh, pasteurized and UHT milk samples marketed in the cities of Bela Cruz and Sobral, located in Ceará. Ninety milk samples were analyzed, of which 30 were fresh milk, 30 pasteurized milk and 30 UHT milk. Qualitative analyzes of antibiotic residue detection in milk were performed following the instructions in the Cow Side II Test kit. Of the 90 samples studied, 63.33% were positive for the presence of antibiotics, where 70% of the fresh milk samples, 73.33% of the pasteurized and 46.67% of the UHT milk samples showed positive reaction to the presence of antibiotics. antibiotics. It was concluded that in the majority of the samples studied there was the presence of antibiotic residues and the present residues were not quantified to compare with the acceptable limit due to the qualitative kit used for the tests. It should also be noted that despite the non-quantification, the presence of these residues should still be considered a concern for consumers, as it is known that they can cause allergic reactions in individuals with hypersensitivity, as well as exposing consumers to other serious risks.

Determinação da frequência de micronúcleos em células esfoliativas da mucosa oral em indivíduos fumantes e etilistas

Resumo: Smoking has been described as the main risk factor in the development of malignant and premalignant lesions in the oral mucosa, and alcohol consumption, on the other hand, is cited as a strong potential agent in triggering cancerous lesions. The study aimed to evaluate the frequency of micronuclei in exfoliative cells of the oral mucosa of smokers and alcoholics, comparing them with non-exposed individuals. Forty volunteers were selected and distributed in 4 groups containing individuals exposed to smoking and alcohol and not exposed. To determine the micronucleus frequency, the micronucleus assay technique was used in oral mucosal cells. The cells examined were collected using cytobrush brush and stained with Feulgen/Fast-green techniques. In the present study, the frequency of micronuclei in the groups exposed to tobacco and alcohol genotoxicity was significantly higher (P < 0.01) when compared to the control group. The association between alcohol and tobacco increased the appearance of micronucleus in the continuous users of these two substances (P < 0.05). Smokers and consumers of alcoholic beverages present higher amounts of cytotoxic damage to oral mucosa cells caused by the action of carcinogens present in cigarette smoke and alcohol. Keywords: micronucleus, genotoxicity, cancer, smoking, alcohol. Expandir Resumo Acessar Texto Completo

Educação em saúde para alunos do primeiro ano do ensino fundamental sobre a leishmaniose em seres humanos e animais

Resumo: Objetivou-se avaliar o conhecimento de alunos do primeiro ano do Ensino Fundamental a respeito das formas de prevenção, contágio e sintomas em seres humanos e animais infectados por Leishmania spp. A leishmaniose, considerada mundialmente uma doença negligenciada, é uma zoonose crônica causada por um protozoário intracelular do gênero Leishmania, cuja transmissão ocorre através da picada de um vetor flebotomíneo. Foi aplicado um questionário semiestruturado para 56 crianças, antes e depois de realizarem atividades lúdicas acerca da leishmaniose. Foi possível constatar que após a realização das atividades e reaplicação do questionário, todas as crianças foram capazes de responder corretamente às perguntas reaplicadas. A educação em saúde demonstrou ser um método eficaz para ser trabalhado com crianças do ensino fundamental, utilizando-se de atividades lúdicas de ensino. O trabalho teve suas expectativas alcançadas ao obter resposta positiva de aprendizado junto às crianças participantes do projeto, demonstrado, inicialmente, por não terem conhecimento a respeito da leishmaniose em animais e seres humanos e ao, final do projeto, saberem desenvolver raciocínio sobre formas de prevenção, controles clínicos e sintomas dessa doença.
