“…A maior prevalência de dores atuais foi referida pelo sexo masculino em nosso estudo, diferindo dos resultados de Taimela et al 10 ; ElMetwally et al 18 e Gareth et al 22 que verificaram maiores prevalências de lombalgia e DME no sexo feminino. Relacionamos este fato ao número de crianças estudadas.…”

“…Vários fatores investigados vêm sendo associados a estes sintomas: sexo, idade, medidas antropométricas, aspectos psicossociais e comportamentais e hábitos posturais em situação de vida diária [9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18] .…”

“…El-Metwally et al 18 , em estudo prospectivo, realizado em oito escolas da Bélgica, acompanharam durante um ano sujeitos que inicialmente estavam livres de dores músculo esqueléticas a fim de estimar a ocorrência do primeiro episódio de dores com categorias distintas tais como: não traumática e traumática em diferentes regiões músculo esqueléticas. Os resultados mostraram que 21,5% relataram o primeiro episódio de dor neste período.…”

“…Some studies reported that, physical activity increases the risk of lower back 12) , lower limb 13,14) , traumatic 15) , overall musculoskeletal pain 16) , and widespread pain 17) , whereas others reported the opposite, suggesting that physical activity reduces the risk of back pain 18,19) . Additionally, whether or not a non-linear dose-response relationship exists was uncertain.…”

Sports and physical activity provide multiple social and health benefits to participants, but may also increase the risk of developing musculoskeletal pain and injuries, especially in skeletally immature adolescents. This review outlines the 1) measurement and prevalence of musculoskeletal pain in adolescents, 2) dose-response relationship between the organized sports activity and musculoskeletal pain, 3) high risk population, based on our previously published epidemiological studies in Japan, and finally, 4) prevention strategy and its evaluation. In our school-based cohort study in Unnan, Shimane, a total of 2403 adolescents aged 12 to 18 years responded to two serial surveys, conducted 1 year apart. The prevalence of overall pain was 27.4% (lower limbs: 15.4%, upper limbs: 9.5%, and lower back: 8.5%). Sports activity had a clear linear association with musculoskeletal pain prevalence and risk. The more the adolescents played sports, the more likely they were to have pain or develop pain. Each 1 hour/week of additional sports activity time was associated with a 3% higher probability of having or developing pain. Some population groups were at higher risk of musculoskeletal pain, such as overweight adolescents and regular players with fewer teammates. To optimize the safety and benefits of organized sports activity for adolescents, prevention of musculoskeletal pain should be an important consideration. More observational and intervention studies with quality designs and development of a national surveillance system for (youth) acute and chronic sports injuries are needed in Japan.

“…For example (Vikat et al, 2000), neck/shoulder pain is related to exercise among adolescents. El-Metwally et al (2007) identified vigorous exercise as a risk factor for traumatic musculoskeletal pain in preteens and early adolescents.…”

Problem statement:In the recent years, there has been an increase in incidence of musculoskeletal complaints among college students. Potential risk factors for this might be increased use of computers. The purpose of this study was to examine among college students (a) the prevalence of musculoskeletal pain and (b) the association of musculoskeletal pain with computer use and physical activity performed during last one week. Approach: A cross-sectional study was performed among college students aged 19-27 years in the first through third years of their college study. Using random sampling, two surveys, the Boston University Computer and Health Survey and the International Physical Activity Questionnaire with informed consent were distributed to 200 college students. Out of 178 surveys returned, 170 surveys were found to be acceptable. Results: About 88% (149/170) of the respondents reported musculoskeletal complaints in the two weeks prior to completing the survey. The prevalence of musculoskeletal pain was higher in female 90% than in male students 76%. Although there was no statistically significant association between the type of computer and musculoskeletal pain, the prevalence of musculoskeletal pain was higher for students using laptop ( 90% ) when compared to those using both desktop and laptop and desktop only (87 and 86%) respectively. There was no statistically significant correlation for musculoskeletal pain with hours of computer use per day, type of computer used and level of physical activity. Conclusion: This study strengthens the findings that musculoskeletal pain is common among college students but it is not influenced by computer use and level of physical activity. Future research should continue on larger students' sample to better understand the musculoskeletal complaints, physical activity and computer use and to find whether these factors are related.
