Article Synopsis
  • This study investigates how perceived neighborhood characteristics affect blood pressure in older adults, focusing on the role of walking as a mediator.
  • Data from the EpiFloripa Aging Cohort Study revealed that older adults with better infrastructure, safety, and overall neighborhood perceptions are less likely to report hypertension.
  • Results indicate that promoting safe environments for physical activity could be crucial for preventing and managing hypertension among older adults.

Instruments used to assess the mental well-being of young athletes in Brazil are scarce. Therefore, the present study aimed to translate, cross-culturally adapt for young athletes, and gather evidence of validity for the Sport Mental Health-Short Form (S-MHC) for use in Brazilian Portuguese. The research was conducted in five stages: translation, synthesis, back-translation, expert review, and validation of the psychometric properties.

Article Synopsis
  • The study aimed to compare the effects of non-periodized versus linear periodized combined training on body image and dissatisfaction in adults with obesity.
  • Participants, all with a BMI between 30 and 40, were divided into three groups: one with non-periodized training, one with linear periodization, and a control group, all undergoing a 16-week intervention.
  • The results showed that while the control group improved their perception of their current body silhouette, dissatisfaction increased over time, with both training methods managing to maintain current body perception and reduce ideal silhouette perceptions in the participants.

This study aimed to compare the effect of 16-weeks of combining aerobic and strength training with a linear increase or fixed intensity on the health-related quality of life (HRQoL) of obese adults. This single-blinded clinical trial involved adults with obesity (BMI ≥ 30 kg/m), randomized into control (CG), fixed intensity (FG), or linear increase (LG) groups. The FG and LG performed 16 weeks of combined (aerobic + strength) training for 60 min, three times a week.

This paper aims to verify the association between the combined relationship of physical inactivity and sedentary behaviour (SB) at leisure-time and the prevalence of noncommunicable chronic diseases (NCDs) in Brazilian adults and elderly. This is a cross-sectional study, derived from the VIGITEL system, with individuals ≥18 years old ( = 52,675). The presence of NCDs (diabetes, hypertension, and obesity) and the independent variables were defined by self-report.

In obese populations, the exacerbated increase in adipose tissue results in a significant reduction of health-related physical fitness and can affect the phase angle (PhA), a promising health indicator of cell health and integrity. The aim of this study was to investigate the association of PhA with health-related physical fitness indicators in obese adults. This cross-sectional study had a non-probabilistic sample and was conducted from April to June 2018.
