Videos available on youtube™ supporting home exercise during the

Objective: To characterize videos with content supporting the practice of physical exercises performed at home during the quarantine period, available on the YouTube™ platform. Method: The search was performed using the terms: “Training Quarantine”, “Training Coronavirus”, and “Training COVID”, identifying videos published between March 20th and June 30th, 2020. Results: A total of 386 videos were analyzed; in March and April, there were a greater number of videos published (34.72% and 40.93%, respectively).

Evaluation of heat transfer coefficients by cfd and response surface techniques

Heat Transfer Coefficients are extremely important for design and control of thermal processes involving the convection mechanism. Experimental evaluation of the film coefficients is not simple because such parameters depend on the system geometry, flow regime and physicochemical properties of the fluid. Thus, an interesting alternative for estimating the convective heat transfer coefficient is to apply CFD techniques to solve the transport equations numerically.

Optimization of a low-cost electrolytic cell for hydrogen production to be used in an internal combustion engine

Hydrogen has important physicochemical and combustion properties that can be used to improve performance and reduce pollutant emissions by motor vehicles. However, storage difficulties can limit its use in internal combustion engines. So, in this research, hydrogen gas was produced and consumed immediately in order to eliminate the need for a storage device. First, a cell for alkaline water electrolysis was built to produce hydrogen and use it as a complementary fuel in an internal combustion engine.

Short and long term follow up of humeral condylar fracture type II treated by lag screw and anti-rotational pin associated to olecranon osteotomy

Humeral condylar fractures are relatively common in dogs and are most often associated with low-energy trauma, mainly affecting young animals. Anatomical reduction and rigid stabilization are mandatory to correct these types of articular fractures and achieve the main goals as early return of limb function, pain-free elbow movement, and prevent or at least reduce degenerative joint disease.

A evidência da avaliação biomecânica e tratamento fisioterapêutico na reabilitação de joelhos acometidos por osgood schlatter e osteocondrite dissecante em criança: um relato de caso

Introdução: OSGOOD SCHLATTER e Osteocondrite Dissecante são patologias que geram alterações funcionais e anatômicas podendo gerar fragilidades morfológicas do sistema musculoesquelético. Sendo assim o trabalho interdisciplinar da biomecânica e interevenção da fisioterapia são fundamentais para analisar os mecanismos de lesão no decurso do surto de crescimento maturacional, ao passo de avaliar e tratar as manifestaões oesteomusculares e limitações funcionais destas patologias.

Incidence of self-medication and indiscriminate use of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs among young university students

Objectives: Evaluate the prevalence of self-medication and possible adverse reactions caused by the use of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs by students of the School of Health Sciences of the Amazonas State University, Brazil. Methods: This is a study with a quantitative approach, consisted of questions addressing gender, age, university course, adverse effects and questions about self-medication. Results: Of the 60 academics who answered the questionnaire, the majority are female (33/55%) were aged between 18 and 22 years (31/52%).

Creation of an application that uses the correlation between stature and plantar anthropometric measurements for forensic purposes

This research was developed based on the idea that human stature is a set of linear dimensions and that there are significant associations between it and various body segments. By associating this concept with mobile device technology, criminal experts can do their work quickly and easily, anywhere. The main objective of this study is to report the steps of creating and developing an application that uses the correlation of height with plantar anthropometric measurements for forensic purposes.

Delirium no idoso hospitalizado: conhecimento da equipe de enfermagem

Objetivo: Verificar o conhecimento da equipe de enfermagem sobre o delirium em idosos hospitalizados. Materiais e Método: Trata-se de um estudo de natureza descritiva e exploratória, de abordagem qualitativa, realizado na Unidade de Internação Clínica de um hospital universitário na Região Sul do Brasil, desenvolvido por meio de entrevistas semiestruturadas, audiogravadas, com 28 profissionais de enfermagem, entre agosto e outubro de 2019. Os dados foram tratados por meio da técnica de análise de conteúdo, utilizando como suporte o software Nvivo para análise das entrevistas.

Quantitative analysis regarding deforestation in the municipality of placas, pará, Brazil

In the Amazon region, especially in the western part of the state of Para, in the municipality of Placas, deforestation intensified after the “integrate but not deliver” program. The objective of this research was to verify anthropic actions such as the opening of roads, extraction of wood, population growth, and the local economy, such as the increase in cattle and soybean farming. The method used was deductive, with a quantitative scope. The obtention of data in free-access electronic databases such as the CAPES Periodical Portal.
