“…At first glance, the results seem contradictory; because increased RBMI and screen time, results in low daily MET consumption. Similar studies discovered that low physical activities, such as screen time, resulted in increased RBMI (13,(26)(27)(28). Body composition changes with physical activity.…”

Background: One of the most important threats for children's health status is being overweight and obesity, and related causes such as screen time prevalence. Prevalence of being overweight and obesity in children is associated with health risk consequences in adulthood. Objectives: The purpose of this study was to assess the prevalence of screen time and physical activity in overweight and obese students. Patients and Methods: In this cross sectional descriptive study we randomly selected 302 students, from all districts of Qazvin, who's relative body mass index (RBMIs) were above the 85th percentile. Their screen time and physical activity prevalence were assessed with two separate techniques (self-report and parent-report). Pearson correlation test and regression analysis were done to examine the association between RBMI, screen time and physical activity. Results: Mean screen time in boys was more than girls, in both overweight screen time-self report technique (ST-SRT: 1.93 ± 0.24 vs. 1.26 ± 0.44, ST-PRT: 3.4 ± 0.22 vs. 2.1 ± 0.15) and obese subjects (ST-SRT: 1.88 ± 0.31 vs. 1.37 ± 0.49, ST-PRT: 3.2 ± 0.32 vs. 2.3 ± 0.34) yet overweight subjects had less total screen time than obese individuals (P < 0.05). Pearson correlations with one-tailed test indicated that screen time had a significant association with RBMI. In addition, there was a significant association between the two techniques of screen time and physical activity measurements. The model of regression for screen time and RBMI was significant (F = 45, P = 0.000, R 2 = 0.42) and screen time explained about 16% of variance in RBMI (B = 0.021, SEB = 0.004, β = 0.325). Conclusions: Our research determined an association between screen time, physical activity and RBMI. Screen time was a prominent predictor of RBMI in children. It is important for health workers to decrease screen time of children to prevent the prevalence of being overweight and obesity.

“…4 Estudo conduzido no norte da Espanha com 436 idosos concluiu que a prática de atividade física esteve relacionada tanto com a melhora da capacidade física, quanto com a diminuição dos sintomas depressivos entre os idosos estudados. 29 É importante ressaltar a relevância da assistência aos indivíduos idosos quanto aos transtornos mentais. Estes podem ter início de forma lenta e insidiosa, 30 variando o tempo de progressão da doença; 31 daí a importância do rastreamento, avaliação e acompanhamento desses indivíduos para a identificação desse transtorno.…”

OBJETIVO: Analisar a associação entre o nível de atividade física habitual e transtornos mentais comuns entre idosos. MÉTODOS: Estudo transversal do tipo seccional com população de 95 idosos residentes na zona rural do município de Jequié-BA. Foram utilizados formulário com informações sociodemográficas, triagem para transtornos mentais comuns (TMC) através do Self-Reporting Questionnaire (SRQ-20) e o Questionário Internacional de Atividades Físicas (IPAQ). RESULTADOS: A maioria dos idosos tinha entre 60 e 79 anos (75,8%) e era do sexo feminino (57,9%). O percentual de não sedentários foi de 64,2%, observando associação estatisticamente significante entre o nível de atividade física com a faixa etária, situação conjugal e escolaridade. A prevalência global de TMC foi de 47,4%; apenas a renda teve associação estatisticamente significante. Ao avaliar a associação entre atividade física e TMC, não foi encontrada associação com níveis estatisticamente significante (p>0,05) CONCLUSÃO: Apesar das evidências da literatura sobre a contribuição da atividade física para a saúde mental, no presente estudo não se observou associação entre atividade física e TMC.

“…It is concluded that activity is important for successful aging (Menec, 2003;Agahi, & Parker, 2008;Townsend & Polatajko, 2007;Bassett, Bourbonnais, & McDowell, 2007) and that physical activity leads to increased strength, endurance, and balance (Purath, Buchholz, & Kark, 2009) as well as less depressive symptoms (Salguero, Martínez-García, Molinero, & Márquez, 2010). Increasing the level of preventive interventions among relatively healthy elderly people is an area of concern for occupational therapists in primary care.…”

An area of concern for occupational therapy is to increase preventive interventions among relatively healthy elderly individuals. The purpose was to explore occupational performance problems among 85-year-old women and men in relation to demographic data, mental health, and health-related quality of life. Participants completed a postal questionnaire including the EuroQoL health-related quality of life measurement. Instruments used during a home visit were the Canadian Occupational Performance Measure, the Mini Mental State Examination, and the Geriatric Depression scale. The sample comprised 380 individuals. Women experienced poorer health and more occupational performance problems than men. Women experienced more occupational performance problems in community management, household management, and quiet leisure compared to men. Impaired cognitive function, lower selfrated health, and higher risk of depression correlated with a larger number of occupational performance problems. Intervention planning should be based on individual perceptions of meaningful occupations and environmental considerations. Occupational performance in 853
