1. Cardiovascular risk in rural workers and its relation with body mass index
ABSTRACT Objective Evaluate the propensity of cardiovascular risk in rural workers and, through the Framingham Risk Score (FRS), relate this risk with the classification of Body Mass Index (BMI). Subjects and methods This study is characterized as descriptive and exploratory, with the participation of 138 subjects, ranging between 25-73 years old. Clinical

2. Different methods of calculating ankle-brachial index in mid-elderly men and women: the Brazilian Longitudinal Study of Adult Health (ELSA-Brasil)
The ankle-brachial index (ABI) is a marker of subclinical atherosclerosis related to health-adverse outcomes. ABI is inexpensive compared to other indexes, such as coronary calcium score and determination of carotid artery intima-media thickness (IMT). Our objective was to identify how the ABI can be applied to primary care. Three different methods of calcul

3. 2000 CDC or 2007 WHO – What is the most sensitive anthropometric reference for determination of overweight and cardio-metabolic risk in children aged 6–10 years?
Objective To compare the two anthropometric standards for screening of overweight and cardio-metabolic risk in 6–10-year-old children.Subjects and methods This cross-sectional study included 175 subjects attending the Referral Center for the Treatment of Children and Adolescents in Campos, Rio de Janeiro. They were classified according to CDC and WHO BMI z

4. Desenvolvimento de metodos opticos para o estudo do acoplamento neuro-vascular-metabolico intrinseco a dinamica cerebral / Development of optical methods to the study of neuro-metabolic-vascular coupling underlying cerebral dynamics
Task-associated neuronal activity leads to a complex chain of biological events within the brain. The increased energetics gives rise to elevated glucose and oxygen consumption in the tissue. Biochemical and neuronal factors induce changes in blood vessels and variations in blood ow, volume and oxygenation. Although it has been extensively investigated, this

5. Home blood pressure monitoring (HBPM) in the blood pressure control in hemodialysis patients / Monitorização residencial da pressão arterial (MRPA) no controle da pressão arterial de pacientes em hemodiálise
INTRODUCTION: It is not known whether the adjustment of the antihypertensive therapy based on Home Blood Pressure Monitoring (HBPM) can improve blood pressure (BP) control in hemodialysis patients. OBJECTIVES: To compare the reduction in BP and in the left ventricular mass index (LVMI) obtained with the use of HBPM in relation to that achieved with predialys

6. Utilization of the lower inflection point of the pressure-volume curve results in protective conventional ventilation comparable to high frequency oscillatory ventilation in an animal model of acute respiratory distress syndrome
INTRODUCTION: Studies comparing high frequency oscillatory and conventional ventilation in acute respiratory distress syndrome have used low values of positive end-expiratory pressure and identified a need for better recruitment and pulmonary stability with high frequency. OBJECTIVE: To compare conventional and high frequency ventilation using the lower infl

7. Efeitos de diferentes intensidades de exercÃcio resistido sobre as respostas hemodinÃmicas em indivÃduos diabÃticos tipo 2 e nÃo diabÃticos
Physical exercise, when prescribed in a proper intensity, is very important in the prevention and/or non pharmacological treatment of high blood pressure, which is common among type-2 diabetics (D). The decrease in blood pressure (BP) after exercise, below pre-exercise rest values, known as post-exercise hypotension (PEH), has been verified after both aerobi

8. Efects of Physical Training asthsmatic women. / Efeitos de um programa de treinamento físico em mulheres asmáticas.
The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of the lower and upper limb physical training (LLPT), arms muscle training (AMT) associated with and of the respiratory reeducation functional techniques (RFR) on asthmatic patients. The cardiopulmonary function was evaluated before and after the physical training. It was analyzed the Maximal and Submaximal c

9. Exercise stress testing in healthy subjects during cholinergic stimulation after a single dose of pyridostigmine
OBJETIVE: The evaluation, by exercise stress testing, of the cardiorespiratory effects of pyridostigmine (PYR), a reversible acetylcholinesterase inhibitor. METHODS: A double-blind, randomized, cross-over, placebo-controlled comparison of hemodynamic and ventilation variables of 10 healthy subjects who underwent three exercise stress tests (the first for ada

10. Ambulatory blood pressure monitoring and microalbuminuria in normotensive subjects with insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus
OBJECTIVE: To assess the association between microalbuminuria with ambulatory blood pressure monitoring in normotensive individuals with insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus. METHODS: Thirty-seven patients underwent determination of the rate of urinary excretion of albumin through radioimmunoassay and ambulatory blood pressure monitoring. Their mean age was 2

11. ANKLE PULSE VOLUME AND PRESSURE IN THE ASSESSMENT OF PERIPHERAL VASCULAR OBSTRUCTIVE DISEASE
The determination of systolic ankle pressure in patients suffering from peripheral arterial occlusive disease is widely used in evaluating the circulatory status of the leg.1-5 Segmental air plethysmography is another reliable method for the assessment of blood flow to a limb.6-7 The following report correlates information obtained by the use of both methods

12. Evaluation of the arterial blood pressure of dogs by two noninvasive methods.
The determination of the arterial blood pressure was done on 12 healthy mixed breed dogs in both the anesthetized and the conscious state, to evaluate two instruments (Doppler flow detector and infrasonde D4000), in their ability to indirectly determine arterial blood pressure. The coefficients of variation were higher with indirect methods when compared wit
