RISK EATING BEHAVIORS FOR RELATIVE ENERGY DEFICIENCY IN SPORTS IN CROSSFIT® PRACTITIONERS
No full textO CrossFit® é um exercício funcional de alta intensidade. Apesar dos inúmeros benefícios, algumas atitudes inadequadas podem causar prejuízos à função fisiológica. A Deficiência de Energia Relativa no Esporte (RED-S) é uma síndrome que pode ocorrer em praticantes de CrossFit® quando não há adequação do consumo energético e do volume de treino. Comportamentos alimentares de risco podem contribuir para a baixa disponibilidade de energia e, consequentemente, com o desenvolvimento da RED-S. O estudo objetiva analisar a ocorrência de comportamentos alimentares inadequados para o desenvolvimento de RED-S em praticantes de CrossFitⓇ. A amostra foi composta por 69 praticantes de CrossFit®, de ambos os sexos, residentes em Fortaleza-Ceará, com idade de 19 a 59 anos e que realizassem CrossFit® há pelo menos 1 ano. Foram utilizados os questionários LEAFQ, EAAT e BSQ e a avaliação antropométrica foi feita pelo cálculo do índice de Massa Corporal (IMC) e pela análise do percentual de gordura corporal. Os dados foram armazenados no programa Microsoft Excel 2016 e posteriormente alisados no programa Jamovi Versão X. Foi observado risco de RED-S em 32,7% dos participantes, presença de insatisfação corporal em 26,4% dos integrantes e que prevalência de lesões foi de 31,6%, não havendo diferenças significativas entre os gêneros. A pontuação do EAAT foi discretamente maior nas mulheres. Foi analisado uma associação positiva entre percentual de gordura e IMC e percentual de gordura e insatisfação corporal. Portanto, devido à alta intensidade do treinamento de CrossFit®, a investigação das RED-S é necessária devido aos inúmeros impactos na saúde.CrossFit® is high-intensity functional exercise. Despite the numerous benefits, some inappropriate attitudes can cause damage to the physiological function. Relative Energy Deficiency in Sport (RED-S) is a syndrome that can occur in CrossFit® practitioners when energy consumption and training volume are not adequate. Risk eating behaviors can contribute to low energy availability and, consequently, to the development of RED-S. The study aims to analyze the occurrence of inappropriate eating behaviors for the development of RED-S in CrossFitⓇ practitioners. The sample consisted of 69 CrossFit® practitioners, of both sexes, residing in Fortaleza-Ceará, aged 19 to 59 years and who had performed CrossFit® for at least 1 year. The LEAFQ, EAAT and BSQ questionnaires were used and the anthropometric assessment was
performed by calculating the Body Mass Index (BMI) and analyzing the percentage of body fat. The data were stored in the Microsoft Excel 2016 program and later smoothed in the Jamovi Version X program. A risk of RED-S was observed in 32.7% of the participants, presence of body dissatisfaction in 26.4% of the members and that the prevalence of injuries was of 31.6%, with no significant differences between genders. The EAAT score was slightly higher in women. A positive association between fat percentage and BMI and fat percentage and body dissatisfaction was analyzed. Therefore, due to the high intensity of CrossFit® training, the investigation of RED-S is necessary due to the numerous impacts on health
BODY DISSATISFACTION AND RISK ATTITUDES TOWARDS EATING DISORDERS IN NUTRITION STUDENTS AT A PRIVATE UNIVERSITY CENTER
No full textIntrodução: É crescente a distorção de imagem em profissionais da área da saúde, desse modo,
este estudo analisou o nível de insatisfação com a imagem corporal e atitudes alimentares em
estudantes de Nutrição. Métodos: O presente estudo é um estudo descritivo, de delineamento
transversal e natureza quantitativa, e foi realizado em um centro universitário particular da
cidade de Fortaleza, Ceará, no período de março a junho de 2023. A amostra foi composta por
68 universitários de ambos os sexos, na faixa etária entre 18 a 59 anos, devidamente
matriculados no curso de Nutrição. Foram coletados dados sociodemográficos, peso e altura
autorreferidos, que classificou o perfil nutricional dos participantes; aplicou-se o “Body Shape
Questionnaire” (BSQ) e a Escala de Silhuetas (1983), para a avaliação da percepção corporal;
e o “Eating Attitudes Test” (EAT-26), para a avaliação do comportamento alimentar. A análise
estatística foi realizada através do teste-t para amostras independentes e o teste do qui-quadrado
para associação de medidas qualitativas; com nível de significância de 95% e valor de P<0,05
(5%). Resultados: Notou-se a dominância do sexo feminino, renda menor do que 2 salários
7
mínimos e idade média de 24 anos. Destes 44,1% estavam com sobrepeso e obesidade, 19,1%
apresentaram algum grau de insatisfação corporal e 22,1% positivam o EAT-26. Conclusão:
Evidenciou-se que existe uma quantidade expressiva de estudantes com insatisfação corporal,
com atitudes consideradas de risco para desenvolvimento dos transtornos alimentares (TAs) e
com distorção de imagem corporal.Introduction: Image distortion is increasing in health professionals, so this study analyzed the
level of dissatisfaction with body image and eating attitudes in Nutrition students. Methods:
The present study is a descriptive study, with a cross-sectional design and quantitative nature,
and was carried out in a private university center in the city of Fortaleza, Ceará, from March to
June 2023. The sample consisted of 68 college students of both sexes, aged between 18 and 59
years old, duly enrolled in the Nutrition course. Sociodemographic data, self-reported weight
and height were collected, which classified the nutritional profile of the participants; the “Body
Shape Questionnaire” (BSQ) and the Silhouette Scale (1983) were applied to assess body
perception; and the “Eating Attitudes Test” (EAT-26), for the evaluation of eating behavior.
Statistical analysis was performed using the t-test for independent samples and the chi-square
test for association of qualitative measures; with a significance level of 95% and P value <0.05
(5%). Results: There was a predominance of females, income less than 2 minimum wages and
mean age of 24 years. Of these, 44.1% were overweight or obese, 19.1% had some degree of
body dissatisfaction and 22.1% had a positive EAT-26. Conclusion: It was evidenced that there
8 is a significant number of students with body dissatisfaction, with attitudes considered at risk
for the development of eating disorders (EDs) and with body image distortion
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
koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist
No full textWe have done our best to complete the author checklist relating to the use of animals in the hut study. Note that the objective for the hut study was to evaluate the IRS treatment applications for residual efficacy against Anopheles mosquitoes, including the local An. coluzzii mosquito population. Cows were only used to attract mosquitoes into the huts and no tests were carried out directly on the cows. The author checklist is intended for use with studies where experiments are carried out on animals, which is why we have had such difficulty in completing this for the hut study, as many of the questions do not relate to how the cows were used
