Abstract Introduction The voice and hearing can be affected to different degrees by aging, which can cause communication difficulties for elderly people. Vocal production requires effective temporal auditory processing at central levels within the nervous system, which can be compromised by the aging process. Objective To analyze the correlation between voice and temporal auditory processing in older adults. Materials and Methods A total of 40 elderly people aged 60 years or older were subdivided into 2 groups according to the presence or absence of vocal symptoms measured by the Voice Symptom Scale. All of the participants were submitted to auditory temporal tests, vocal self-assessment, and acoustic and perceptual auditory analyses of voice. Results Most of the subjects assessed had decreased voice intensity and normal variability in terms of vocal quality. The performance was normal in the Pitch Pattern Sequence test and altered in the Random Gap Detection test. In the Masking Period Pattern test, the detection thresholds for the target signal were increased in the presence of masking in different temporal target signal positions. Only pitch differed between the two groups. There were differences between the genders regarding frequency, shimmer, the overall severity of the alteration, and roughness. There was a correlation regarding temporal resolution ability and the overall severity of the alteration and roughness of the voice. Conclusion There is a central auditory impairment in temporal resolution which is correlated with vocal alterations in the elderly. system process adults 4 6 Scale tests selfassessment, selfassessment self assessment, assessment self-assessment quality positions frequency shimmer

Résumé Cet article analyse les réflexions d'un groupe de géographes sur le choix du nouvel emplacement de Brasília et les logiques d'aménagement du territoire. Deux commissions de scientifiques se réunissent en 1947 au sein de l'Institut brésilien de géographie et de statistique (IBGE) et du Conseil national de géographie (CNG) pour explorer le plateau central et discuter du nouvel emplacement. La première était dirigée par Francis Ruellan, un géomorphologue français, et l'autre par Leo Waibel, un géographe étasunien d’origine allemande et spécialisé dans les questions économiques. Leurs deux approches ont fini par représenter des pôles de controverses technico-scientifiques. Inspirées par la méthodologie de Bruno Latour, ces controverses sont vues comme la possibilité d'observer des projets clairement opposés de colonisation et de politique au Brésil, ainsi que la performativité même de la science géographique, c'est-à-dire sa capacité à construire des territoires.

Abstract This article analyses the reflections of a group of geographers on the choice of the new location for Brasília and the regional planning logic. Two scientific comissions held meetings in 1947 at the Brazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics (IBGE) and the National Geography Council (CNG) to explore the Brazilian Central Plateau and discuss the new location. French geomorphologist Francis Ruellan led the first meeting and Leo Waibel, an economic geographer born in Germany and naturalized in the United States led the other. These two leaderships represented different sides of technical-scientific controversies. Inspired by Bruno Latour’s methodology, controversies are seen as a possibility to observe clear colonization and political projects for Brazil in opposition, as well as geography’s performativity, its ability to build territories. The question that guided this research was: by which epistemological logic was Brazil colonized? 194 IBGE (IBGE CNG (CNG Waibel other technicalscientific technical Latours Latour s methodology opposition geographys geography performativity territories colonized 19 1

Resumo Este estudo teve como objetivo avaliar o estilo de vida dos universitários e investigar a prevalência de comportamentos de risco para doenças crônicas não transmissíveis. Estudo transversal com 2.163 universitários da área de saúde da cidade de Brasília. Foi aplicado um questionário sobre as variáveis demográficas, classe social, comportamentos e autopercepção de saúde e doenças autorreferidas. Dos 2.163, 69,3% eram mulheres, 65,4% idade entre 20 a 29 anos, 66,8% consumiam álcool e 44,2% não realizavam atividade física. Os homens fumavam (p <0,01) e consumiam mais álcool do que as mulheres. Encontramos diferenças no consumo de feijão (p <0,04) e leite integral (p <0,01) entre homens e mulheres. Elas também apresentaram estilos de vida mais sedentários (p <0,01) e elevada prevalência de sobrepeso (33,8%) e obesidade (5,0%). Os estudantes que não praticavam atividade física tinham mais morbidades, estavam acima do peso (p = 0,03), consumiam mais refrigerantes (p <0,01) e carne com excesso de gordura (p = 0,01). Os estudantes têm adotado um estilo de vida pouco saudável. Observa-se a necessidade da elaboração e implantação de políticas públicas de promoção da saúde dentro da Universidade, com vistas à melhoria da saúde e da qualidade de vida dos universitários.

Abstract This study aimed to assess the lifestyle of undergraduate university students, and to investigate the prevalence of risk behaviors for chronic noncommunicable diseases. This cross-sectional study took place in Brasilia, with 2.163 healthcare undergraduates. We used a self-administered questionnaire for demographic variables, social class, behavioral data, self-perception of health and self-reported diseases. Given a total of 2.163 students, 69.3% were female, 65.4% were 20-29 years, men smoked more cigarettes (p < 0.01) and used more alcohol than women. We found significant differences in the consumption of beans (p < 0.04) and full-fat milk (p < 0.01) between females and males. Women also had more sedentary lifestyles (p < 0.01) and showed higher prevalences of overweight (33.8%) and obesity (5.0%). Students who did not engage in physical activity were more morbidities, overweight (p = 0.03), consumed more soft drinks (p < 0.01) and meat with excess fat (p = 0.01). University students were found to have unhealthy lifestyles. There is an urgent need for both a formulation and implementation of public health policies to promote health and improve student quality of life (QoL).

Resumo Estudos realizados no Brasil demonstraram que o perfil de estilo de vida de universitários apresentam deficiências preocupantes em relação à atividade física e hábitos alimentares. O objetivo do estudo foi avaliar os hábitos alimentares e o perfil de atividade física dos estudantes de Educação Física e investigar a associação entre o estado nutricional, atividade física e hábitos alimentares. Estudo transversal com 903 estudantes de Educação Física. Todas as questões foram retiradas do Sistema de Vigilância de Fatores de Risco e Proteção para as Doenças Crônicas (Vigitel). As mulheres eram mais sedentárias (p<0,01) e apresentaram maior prevalência de obesidade. Aqueles que não praticavam atividade física tinham alta prevalência de sofrer uma doença crônica. Os homens tinham uma dieta e um perfil de atividade física mais adequado Estudos voltados à promoção de hábitos saudáveis devem ser inseridos nas universidades.

Abstract Studies carried out in Brazil have demonstrated that the lifestyle profile of university students presents worrying deficiencies in respect to physical activity and eating habits. The aim was to evaluate the dietary habit and physical activity profile of physical education students and investigate the association between nutritional status, physical activity and eating habits. A cross-sectional design with 903 Physical Education students. All the questions were extracted from the Surveillance of Risk and Protective Factors for Chronic Diseases (Vigitel). The women were found to be more sedentary (p<0.01) and showed a higher prevalence of obesity. Those who did not practice physical activity had a high prevalence of having a chronic disease. The men had a more adequate diet and physical activity profile. Studies that focus on promoting healthy habits should be inserted early in the universities.

Abstract Aims: To analyze the prevalence of risky behaviors among physical education undergraduates; to determine prevalence of risk factors for non-communicable chronic diseases (NCCD) among university, and; to determine the association between healthy life habits and physical activity. Method: A cross-sectional study with 903 undergraduate Physical Education students. The study used a self-administered questionnaire on health-related life habits. All questions were obtained from the Surveillance of Risk and Protection Factors for Chronic Diseases through Telephone Interviews. Logistic regression was used to estimate odds ratios (OR) and 95% confidence intervals (95% CI). Results: Of the 903 students, 57.4% were women, 67.6% were between 20-29 years of age, 68.7% consumed alcohol, 28.5% did not do physical activity, and 33.2% were overweight. Regarding the eating habits considered a risk for NCCD, women exhibited more risk factors than men, whereas 41.1% drank more full-fat milk (p = 0.01) and 31.8% ate more fatty meats, while men drank more soda (p < 0.01). Physically active students consumed more fruits (p < 0.01) and salads (p = 0.01) and drank less soda (p < 0.01). The physically inactive students had a high prevalence of getting diabetes (p < 0.01) and of suffering from hypertension (p = 0.01) and high cholesterol (p < 0.01). Conclusions: University students in our study had unhealthy lifestyles. There is an urgent need for both a formulation and implementation of public health policies to promote health and decrease risk factors for NCCD.

Abstract: The objective of this study was to compare the prevalence of barriers and their association with physical activity in servers of a Federal District college. It is a cross-sectional study with 270 administrative servers from a faculty of the Federal District, Brazil, developed between October 2016 and May 2017. Sociodemographic informa tion, physical activity practice and perceived barriers were collected. The barriers were analyzed individually and grouped into domains (environmental, behavioral, physical and social). Associations between perceived barriers (by domains) and practice of physical activities were tested by means of Poisson Regression. Results: The main barriers perceived by the employees of both genders were extensive work hours (women = 33.9%, men = 24.1%), lack of energy (women = 17.3%, men = 14.9%). Women and men who per ceived social barriers to physical activity presented a higher proba bility (OR = 2.13, 95%CI = 1.08-5.40, OR = 1.92, 95%CI = 0.87, 4.88, respectively) of being physically inactive. Physical barriers were associated with physical inactivity in women (OR = 1.82, 95%CI = 1.41-4.47). The barriers of the social domain were associated with physical inactivity for both genders. The development of healthy public policies with the purpose of increasing the stimulus to the practice of physical activity.

Resumo: O objetivo deste estudo foi comparar entre os gêneros a prevalência de barreiras e sua associação com a prática de atividades físicas em servidores de uma faculdade do Distrito Federal. Trata-se de um estudo transversal com 270 servidores administrativos de uma facul dade do Distrito Federal, Brasil, desenvolvido entre outubro de 2016 a maio de 2017. Foram coletadas informações sociodemográficas, prática de atividade física e barreiras percebidas. As barreiras foram analisadas individualmente e agrupadas em domínios (ambiental, comportamental, físico e social). Associações entre barreiras percebi das (por domínios) e prática de atividades físicas foram testadas por meio de Regressão de Poisson. Resultados: As principais barreiras percebidas pelos servidores, de ambos os gêneros, foram jornada de trabalho extensa (mulheres = 33,9%, homens= 24,1%), falta de ener gia (mulheres= 17,3%, homens= 14,9%). As mulheres e os homens que percebiam barreiras sociais para a prática de atividade física apresentaram, probabilidade maior (OR=2,13; IC95%= 1,08-5,40; OR=1,92; IC95%=0,87-4,88, respectivamente) de serem inativos fisicamente. As barreiras físicas estiveram associadas à inatividade física nas mulheres (OR= 1,82; IC95%=1,41-4,47). As barreiras do domínio social estiveram associadas à inatividade física, para ambos os gêne ros. O desenvolvimento de políticas públicas saudáveis com o propó sito de aumentar o estímulo a prática de atividade física.

OBJETIVO: Investigar fatores determinantes da inatividade física entre adolescentes de 15 a 19 anos na cidade do Recife (PE). MÉTODO: O estudo foi caso-controle, envolvendo 597 adolescentes de 15 a 19 anos, estudantes de escolas particulares, selecionadas por conveniência. Os critérios de exclusão foram adolescentes com doenças que interferissem ou impossibilitassem a avaliação antropométrica, que estavam em tratamento medicamentoso ou dietético para sobrepeso ou que haviam modificado sua atividade física nos últimos 30 dias. Eles foram recrutados de acordo com a atividade física, determinada pelo International Physical Activity Questionnaire: casos - inativos (sedentários e insuficientemente ativos); e controles - ativos (ativos e muito ativos). Os adolescentes informaram quantas horas diárias assistiam televisão e usavam computador para identificar o número de horas sedentárias/dia. A antropometria (peso e estatura) dos adolescentes foi aferida pela técnica de Gibson; assim, foi calculado o índice de massa corporal. O peso, a estatura e a escolaridade das mães foram autorreferidos. Os dados foram analisados por análise múltipla de regressão logística, utilizando o programa SPSS, versão 11.5, objetivando controlar variáveis de confusão. RESULTADOS: Adolescentes do sexo feminino tiveram risco cerca de duas vezes maior de serem inativos (odds ratio = 1,94; intervalo de confiança de 95% = 1,35-2,79) em relação àqueles do sexo masculino. Assistir televisão mais de 1 hora/dia foi de maior risco para inatividade física em relação a menos de 1 hora/dia (odds ratio = 1,55; intervalo de confiança de 95% = 1,01-2,39). CONCLUSÃO: Inatividade física em adolescentes foi associada com o sexo feminino e maior tempo diário assistindo televisão.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate determinants of physical inactivity among adolescents aged 15 to 19 years in the city of Recife, northeastern Brazil. METHOD: This case-control study involved 597 private school students aged 15 to 19 years selected by convenience sampling. Exclusion criteria were adolescents with diseases that interfered with or hindered anthropometric measurements, who were being treated with drugs or diet for excess weight or who had changed their physical activity over the past 30 days. The students were recruited according to physical activity, as determined by the International Physical Activity Questionnaire: cases - inactive (sedentary or insufficiently active); and controls - active (active and very active). The adolescents reported the number of hours per day of television watching and computer use to identify the number of sedentary hours/day. Anthropometry (weight and height) of the adolescents was measured by Gibson's technique and used to calculate the body mass index. Weight, height and educational level of mothers were self-reported. Data were analyzed by multiple logistic regression, using the SPSS software, version 11.5, in order to control for confounding variables. RESULTS: Female adolescents were twice as likely to be inactive (odds ratio = 1.94; 95% confidence interval = 1.35-2.79) compared to male adolescents. Watching television for more than 1 hour/day showed increased risk for physical inactivity compared to less than 1 hour/day (odds ratio = 1.55; 95% confidence interval = 1.01-2.39). CONCLUSION: Physical inactivity among adolescents was associated with females and longer time spent per day watching television.
