Epidemiological study of sports injuries in basketball, futsal and volleyball among young athletes: aspects of training and clinical monitoring
No full textO objetivo deste estudo foi verificar a incidência das principais lesões esportivas comuns em atletas jovens de 16 a 19 anos de idade, que participaram de treinamento regular ou federado no ano de 2002, nas modalidades esportivas basquetebol, futsal e voleibol. Foram identificados, também, alguns aspectos de treinamento e estrutura médica. Para isso, aplicou-se um questionário para 323 atletas e entrevistas com 26 técnicos e 8 médicos, de 20 clubes esportivos de São Paulo. Os resultados do estudo indicaram um total de 343 lesões ou 1,7 lesão/atleta/ano. No basquetebol, as lesões mais comuns foram as entorses; a região corporal mais acometida de lesão foi a do tornozelo, seguida do joelho, coluna e dedos da mão; os armadores foram os mais afetados. No futsal, a lesão mais comum foi a entorse de tornozelo e houve ocorrência de lesão nas regiões da coxa e joelho; pivôs foram os mais afetados. No voleibol, a lesão mais comum foi a tendinite, principalmente na região do joelho, seguida das entorses e lesões musculares; a posição de meio de rede foi a mais afetada. As lesões ocorreram com uma maior freqüência em situações de treinamento. Dos 20 clubes avaliados, apenas oito possuem um médico especializado plantonista. Tal fato indica que alguns fatores de risco, como medidas preventivas em situações de treinamento, exame de pré-participação esportiva e acompanhamento médico especializado, não são devidamente organizados para os atletas jovens nos clubes avaliadosThe objective of this study was to evaluate the incidence of the main sports injuries commonly found in young athletes in the 16-19 year age group who participated in regular or federate trainings during 2002 in sports modalities such as basketball, futsal and volleyball. Also identified were some aspects of training and clinical structure. To obtain these data, a questionnaire was applied to 323 athletes and surveys were performed among 26 coaches and 8 physicians from 20 sports clubs located in Sao Paulo (Brazil). The results of the study showed a total of 343 injuries or 1.7 injury/athlete/year. In basketball, the most common injuries were sprains, the most affected body regions in terms of injury being the ankles, followed by knees, backbones and fingers; point guards being the most affected athletes. In futsal, the most common injuries were ankle sprains, the thigh and knee regions being also affected by injuries; pivots were the most affected among the team. In volleyball, the most common injury was tendonitis, mainly in the knee region, followed by sprains and muscle injuries; the most affected position being the forward-center\'s. The frequency of injuries was higher during trainings. Only eight of the 20 sports clubs evaluated actually hire specialized emergency physicians. This fact indicates that some risk factors such as preventive measures during trainings, sports preparation evaluation, and specialized clinical monitoring are not appropriately organized for young athletes in the assessed sports club
Sport initiation and specialization in Sao Paulo
No full textEste estudo teve como objetivo verificar e analisar as formas de iniciação e especialização esportiva, adotados por clubes e secretarias municipais de esportes da Região da Grande São Paulo, de modalidades individuais (atletismo, ginástica, natação, judô e tênis) e coletivas (basquetebol, futsal, handebol e voleibol). Para isso, foram aplicadas entrevistas semi-estruturadas com uma amostra intencional de 15 entidades esportivas. Os resultados indicaram que as entidades promovem treinamento específico em faixas etárias abaixo das recomendadas pela literatura nas modalidades pesquisadas. O estudo permitiu também sugerir propostas de reformulações no processo de iniciação e formação esportiva de jovens atletasThe aim of this study was to verify and analyse the ways of sport beginning and specialization, that are used by sport clubs and sport’ secretaries o f Sao Paulo, in initiation to individual sports (athletics, gymnastics, swimming, judo and tennis) and team sports (basketball, indoor soccer, handball and volleyball). It was used a semistructure interview with a deliberate sampling composed o f fifteen sports entities. The results showed that the sports entities start youth sport-specific training phase earlier than the suggested by the literature. The study permited to suggest changes in youth sport program

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Get PDFThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Variations on the Author
Get PDF“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
Get PDFWe provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
Get PDFWe conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods
Validade e reprodutibilidade de um protocolo de avaliação da capacidade motora coordenativa ritmo
Get PDFA literatura científica não apresenta instrumento que avalie a capacidade motora rítmica. Este estudo teve como objetivo principal, criar um critério de avaliação dos elementos rítmico-musicais, utilizados na aprendizagem por modelagem em atividades de Educação Física. Com base no critério de avaliação estudado, foi elaborado um guia de procedimentos para aplicação do teste. Para tanto, foi utilizado um teste dos componentes rítmico-musicais, que foi aplicado em 50 (cinqüenta) alunos do Curso de Educação Física. Os sujeitos foram classificados em conhecedores de bloco musical, frase musical, pulso rítmico e não identificam. A correlação estatística para a validade, reprodutibilidade e objetividade foi de r=0,69, r=0,73 e r=0,75 respectivamente. As categorias de conhecimento dos componentes rítmico-musicais de maior freqüência foram, respectivamente, os conhecedores de frase, bloco, pulso e �não identificam�. Os resultados mostraram que o teste é fidedigno e o protocolo proposto favorece espaço para que novos trabalhos sejam realizados na área do Movimento Humano em Educação Física
