Health literacy, a more complex concept than knowledge, is a required capacity to obtain, understand, integrate and act on health information [1], in order to enhance individual and community health, which is defined by different levels, according to the autonomy and personal capacitation in decision making [2]. Medium levels of Health literacy in an adolescent population were found in a study conducted in 2013/2014, being higher in sexual and reproductive health and lower in substance use. It was also noticed that the higher levels of health literacy were in the area adolescents refer to have receipt more health information. The health literacy competence with higher scores was communication skills, and the lower scores were in the capacity to analyze factors that influence health. Higher levels were also found in younger teenagers, but in a higher school level, confirming the importance of health education in these age and development stage. Adolescents seek more information in health professionals and parents, being friends more valued as a source information in older adolescents, which enhance the importance of peer education mainly in older adolescents [3]. As a set of competences based on knowledge, health literacy should be developed through education interventions, encompassing the cultural and social context of individuals, since the society, culture and education system where the individual is inserted can define the way the development and enforcement of the health literacy competences [4]. The valued sources of information should be taken into account, as well as needs of information in some topics referred by adolescents in an efficient health education. Schizophrenia is a serious and chronic mental illness which has a profound effect on the health and well-being related with the well-known nature of psychotic symptoms. The exercise has the potential to improve the life of people with schizophrenia improving physical health and alleviating psychiatric symptoms. However, most people with schizophrenia remains sedentary and lack of access to exercise programs are barriers to achieve health benefits. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of exercise on I) the type of intervention in mental health, II) in salivary levels of alpha-amylase and cortisol and serum levels of S100B and BDNF, and on III) the quality of life and selfperception of the physical domain of people with schizophrenia. The sample consisted of 31 females in long-term institutions in the Casa de Saúde Rainha Santa Isabel, with age between 25 and 63, and with diagnosis of schizophrenia according to the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-IV-TR). Physical fitness was assessed by the six-minute walk distance test (6MWD). Biological variables were determined by ELISA (Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay). Psychological variables were assessed using SF-36, PSPP-SCV, RSES and SWLS tests. Walking exercise has a positive impact on physical fitness (6MWD -p = 0.001) and physical components of the psychological test...

Resumo: O objetivo deste trabalho foi identificar porta-enxertos alternativos ao limoeiro 'Cravo' comum, para produção de laranja 'Pêra', nas condições dos Tabuleiros Costeiros de Sergipe. Foram avaliados 43 porta-enxertos quanto a altura, copa, taxa fotossintética, teor de prolina, eficiência produtiva, produção e produtividade por planta. O limoeiro 'Cravo' comum foi considerado como padrão. Os porta-enxertos híbrido TSKC x (LCR x TR) - 059, citrandarim 'Riverside', limoeiro 'Cravo CNPMF - 03' e outros 12 superaram o limoeiro 'Cravo' comum na indução de eficiência produtiva à copa; limoeiro 'Rugoso Vermelho', citrandarim 'Indio' e mais quatro promoveram maior produtividade; TSKC x CTRK - 001 e TSKFL x CTC13 - 012 se destacaram pela magnitude da assimilação de CO2; e TSKC x (LCR x TR) - 040 e TSKC x CTRK - 001 apresentaram maior acúmulo de prolina. São considerados alternativas promissoras os seguintes porta-enxertos: híbrido TSKC x (LCR x TR) - 059; citrandarins 'Indio', 'Riverside' e 'San Diego'; limoeiros 'Rugoso Vermelho' e 'Cravo CNPMF - 03'; e híbridos TSKC x CTRK - 001, TSKFL x CTC13 - 012, TSKC x (LCR x TR) - 040, TSKC x LHA - 006, TSKC x CTQT1434 - 001, TSKC x CTSW - 058 e TSKFL x CTARG - 028.

RESUMO -A produção integrada de frutas procura reduzir o uso de agrotóxicos, eliminar produtos considerados perigosos para a saúde humana ou prejudicial para o meio ambiente e, ao mesmo tempo, fomentar as boas práticas de manejo agrícola. Assim, os sistemas de produção convencional (PC) e integrado (PI) de pêssegos da cv. Marli foram comparados em relação às principais práticas de manejo da planta e do solo, controle fitossanitário, aspectos econômicos, bem como à qualidade da fruta, objetivando estabelecer o sistema de Produção Integrada de Frutas de Caroço (PIFC) na Depressão Central-RS. Na área conduzida sob PI, foram utilizadas as práticas de acordo com o manejo preconizado pela Organização Internacional de Controle Biológico e no sistema de PC, aquelas de uso comum pelo produtor. A produção de pêssegos obtidas em ambos os sistemas não foi afetada. Na área de PI, houve menor número de frutas por planta quando comparada com a PC, entretanto, os pêssegos apresentaram maior tamanho e peso, não afetando a produção final. A classificação das frutas demonstrou que os pêssegos provenientes do sistema de PI são na maioria, pertencente à CAT I (diâmetro > 57 mm), enquanto os do sistema PC são de CAT II (48 a 57 mm). Houve maior incidência de Grapholita molesta e Monilinia fructicola no pomar de pêssegos provenientes do sistema de PI. O monitoramento de pragas e o manejo de doenças proporcionaram uma sensível redução na aplicação de agroquímicos. De uma forma geral é possível produzir pêssegos de melhor qualidade, mantendo a produtividade com uma redução considerável no uso de agroquímicos. Termos para indexação: Pêssego, qualidade dos frutos, manejo do solo, manejo da planta. CONVENTIONAL PRODUCTION X INTEGRATED PRODUCTION OF PEACHES ´MARLI' IN THE CENTRAL DEPRESSION OF RIO GRANDE DO SUL STATEABSTRACT -The integrated production of fruits with Pit tries to reduce the use of pesticides, to eliminate products considered dangerous for human health or harmful to the environment and, at the same time, encourage good agricultural practices. Therefore the objective of the present work was to compare conventional (CP) and integrated (IP) production systems of peaches cv. Marli, with regards to plant and soil management, diseases and pest control, economical aspects, as well as fruit quality, to warrant the integrate production of stone fruits system (IPSF) in the Central Depressão-region of the state of RS. In the area managed as IP, the practices were in agreement with the handling recommended by the International Organization of Biological Control and in the CP system, the grove was managed as common used by the grower. Peach production in both systems wasn't affected. In the IP area, there was smaller number of fruits per plant compared to the CP area, however the peaches were of greater size there was no effect on total yield per plant. The majority of peaches from the IP system were classified as CAT I fruit (diameter > 57 mm) while most of the peaches from the CP system were classified as CAT II fruit (48 a 57 mm). Ther...

-The objective of this work was to evaluate the agronomical performance of 'Piemonte' mandarin grafted on 11 rootstocks grown under the edaphoclimatic conditions of the Coastal Tablelands, in the state of Sergipe, Brazil. The following combined agronomical parameters were evaluated: vegetative growth, abundance of phytophagous mites, plant yield, drought tolerance, and physicochemical quality of fruit. 'Piemonte' mandarin had the best productive performance when grafted on 'Santa Cruz Rangpur' lime, 'Red Rough' lemon, 'Sunki Tropical' mandarin, and 'Riverside' citrandarin, and it was more tolerant to drought when grafted on 'Santa Cruz Rangpur' lime and on the LVK x LCR-010 hybrid. Rootstocks did not affect pest population levels. 'Piemonte' mandarin grafted on 'Santa Cruz Rangpur' lime and 'Red Rough' lemon produced lower-quality fruit. The 'Indio' and 'San Diego' citrandarins, the HTR-051 hybrid, and 'Swingle' citrumelo have potential for high-density plantings. 'Sunki Tropical' mandarin and 'Riverside' citrandarin are a good option for the diversification of rootstocks in orchards in the agroecosystem of the Brazilian Coastal Tablelands.
