Neuromuscular Co-ordination
Neuromuscular coordination allows the nervous system and muscles to work together to enable body movement. It functions on two levels: intra-muscular coordination which controls individual muscle fiber activation, and inter-muscular coordination which coordinates muscle groups. Neuromuscular coordination depends on factors like rate coding of motor unit firing, recruitment of more motor units through resistance training, and synchronization of motor unit discharge. Strength training exercises can improve neuromuscular coordination by increasing rate coding, recruitment, and synchronization.
Goniometry
This document defines goniometry as a technique used to measure range of motion in joints. It discusses the definition, uses, parts of a goniometer, degrees of freedom in joints, and procedures for goniometric measurement. Key points covered include that a goniometer consists of stationary, moving, and body arms to measure angles in degrees, and it is used to identify contractures or decreased range of motion from injury or disuse, help develop treatment goals, and evaluate rehabilitation progress. Normal ranges of motion are provided for the shoulder and elbow.
History of physiotherapy
Physiotherapy has been used for thousands of years to treat pain and physical impairments through techniques like massage, manual therapy, and hydrotherapy. Greek physicians like Hippocrates were early practitioners of manual manipulation for pain relief. In the 1800s, Per Henrik Ling established schools of Swedish gymnastics and massage therapy. Physiotherapy treats patients through physical exercise and understanding of human biomechanics, while pharmacy focuses on biochemistry and recommending medication to treat illnesses. Physiotherapists work directly with patients, using exercise and manual therapy, whereas pharmacists treat patients by advising on appropriate drug-based treatments.
Peroxisomes
This presentation summarizes key information about peroxisomes. Peroxisomes are membrane-bound organelles found in the cytoplasm of eukaryotic cells that contain oxidase enzymes and help breakdown hydrogen peroxide. They have a dense matrix and participate in important functions like fatty acid breakdown, alcohol detoxification, and bile acid/cholesterol synthesis. Disorders can arise if single peroxisomal enzymes are abnormal, affecting the nervous system, liver, and other organs. Two examples given are adrenoleukodystrophy, which involves VLCFA metabolism, and Zellweger's syndrome, caused by a lack of functional peroxisomes due to mutations affecting transport of enzymes.

8 Surprising Reasons To Meditate 40 Minutes A Day That Can Change Your Life.pptxHolistified Wellness
We’re talking about Vedic Meditation, a form of meditation that has been around for at least 5,000 years. Back then, the people who lived in the Indus Valley, now known as India and Pakistan, practised meditation as a fundamental part of daily life. This knowledge that has given us yoga and Ayurveda, was known as Veda, hence the name Vedic. And though there are some written records, the practice has been passed down verbally from generation to generation.Integrating Ayurveda into Parkinson’s Management: A Holistic Approach

Overall life span (LS) was 1671.7±1721.6 days and cumulative 5YS reached 62.4%, 10 years – 50.4%, 20 years – 44.6%. 94 LCP lived more than 5 years without cancer (LS=2958.6±1723.6 days), 22 – more than 10 years (LS=5571±1841.8 days). 67 LCP died because of LC (LS=471.9±344 days). AT significantly improved 5YS (68% vs. 53.7%) (P=0.028 by log-rank test). Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: N0-N12, T3-4, blood cell circuit, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells-CC and blood cells subpopulations), LC cell dynamics, recalcification time, heparin tolerance, prothrombin index, protein, AT, procedure type (P=0.000-0.031). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and N0-12 (rank=1), thrombocytes/CC (rank=2), segmented neutrophils/CC (3), eosinophils/CC (4), erythrocytes/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), stick neutrophils/CC (8), leucocytes/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (error=0.000; area under ROC curve=1.0).

Novas diretrizes da OMS para os cuidados perinatais de mais qualidade
Novas diretrizes da OMS para os cuidados perinatais de mais qualidadeProf. Marcus Renato de Carvalho
Recomendações da OMS sobre cuidados maternos e neonatais para uma experiência pós-natal positiva.
Em consonância com os ODS – Objetivos do Desenvolvimento Sustentável e a Estratégia Global para a Saúde das Mulheres, Crianças e Adolescentes, e aplicando uma abordagem baseada nos direitos humanos, os esforços de cuidados pós-natais devem expandir-se para além da cobertura e da simples sobrevivência, de modo a incluir cuidados de qualidade.
Estas diretrizes visam melhorar a qualidade dos cuidados pós-natais essenciais e de rotina prestados às mulheres e aos recém-nascidos, com o objetivo final de melhorar a saúde e o bem-estar materno e neonatal.
Uma “experiência pós-natal positiva” é um resultado importante para todas as mulheres que dão à luz e para os seus recém-nascidos, estabelecendo as bases para a melhoria da saúde e do bem-estar a curto e longo prazo. Uma experiência pós-natal positiva é definida como aquela em que as mulheres, pessoas que gestam, os recém-nascidos, os casais, os pais, os cuidadores e as famílias recebem informação consistente, garantia e apoio de profissionais de saúde motivados; e onde um sistema de saúde flexível e com recursos reconheça as necessidades das mulheres e dos bebês e respeite o seu contexto cultural.
Estas diretrizes consolidadas apresentam algumas recomendações novas e já bem fundamentadas sobre cuidados pós-natais de rotina para mulheres e neonatos que recebem cuidados no pós-parto em unidades de saúde ou na comunidade, independentemente dos recursos disponíveis.
É fornecido um conjunto abrangente de recomendações para cuidados durante o período puerperal, com ênfase nos cuidados essenciais que todas as mulheres e recém-nascidos devem receber, e com a devida atenção à qualidade dos cuidados; isto é, a entrega e a experiência do cuidado recebido. Estas diretrizes atualizam e ampliam as recomendações da OMS de 2014 sobre cuidados pós-natais da mãe e do recém-nascido e complementam as atuais diretrizes da OMS sobre a gestão de complicações pós-natais.
O estabelecimento da amamentação e o manejo das principais intercorrências é contemplada.
Recomendamos muito.
Vamos discutir essas recomendações no nosso curso de pós-graduação em Aleitamento no Instituto Ciclos.
