Caracterizada pela diminuição da massa muscular, associada a perda da força muscular e da velocidade de marcha (Cruz-Jentof, 2010), a sarcopenia é fortemente relacionada ao sedentarismo, tendo como consequência perdas funcionais e da autonomia em idosos (Mendes et al, 2016); o que sugere o alto risco de prevalência da mesma em idosos institucionalizados. Assim, o presente estudo teve como objetivo determinar a prevalência de sarcopenia em idosos de uma ILPI do interior de do estado de São Paulo.

Molecular modeling of cortisol (hydrocortisone), using Spartan 14 software for Windows, with a good approximation corroborated the structural data previously obtained by the X-ray technique. The calculation of bond lengths and bond angles provided new structural information on the cortisols, in which sulfur, selenium and tellurium were substituted for oxygen in the keto and hydroxyl functional groups. Most of the geometric parameters obtained for cortisol and its derivatives with heavy chalcogens were similar, except for the striking elongation of the key bonds Ch-H, Ch-C and Ch = O.

The study aimed to compare the results of strategic indicators, considering similarities and non-similarities. The methodology is characterized as applied research, classified in relation to the objectives as exploratory and descriptive, using documentary procedure and the approach is quantitative.

The inhalation process activates the diaphragm muscle, increasing as a result of diaphragmatic contraction. Manovacuometry stands out for being a fundamental resource in the prescription of respiratory muscle training. Thus, the use of muscle thickness by ultrasound has been frequently used in investigations, evaluating the adaptations of diaphragmatic muscle. The aim of this study was to verify the correlation between the manovacuometric measurements and the diaphragmatic cross section area seen through ultrasound.

Trata-se de um ensaio teórico sobre o dia a dia de um professor de música da educação básica no Brasil. Esse estudo apresentou uma reflexão sobre o ensino de ética, pensando nas dificuldades materiais e humanas, por que passa a educação, a sala de aula e o professor.

Geo-morphologically western Odisha is an extension of the Chhotnagpur plateau and the Chhatisgarh basin. The western uplands comprising the districts of Keonjhar, Sundargarh, Sambalpur, Balangir and Kalahandi share in common the history and culture of Central India. This region along with the eastern districts of Madhya Pradesh once formed a single political unit under the name Mahakantara and DaksinaKosala during the early historic and early medieval periods.

The purpose of this study is to verify if the West African Economic and Monetary Union can be identified as a becoming optimum monetary area in terms of existing synchronization of national economic cycles, as it known that their single currency rather belongs to an economic arrangement created during colonization. This paper provides the identification of a common cycle of the west African CFA Franczone, expressed as either an aggregate national cycle or a common cycle coming out of a multivariate analysis of the cycle.
