    (2024-03-08) Freitas, Ana Beatriz Maia de; Souza, Andréa Carla Mendonça de; http://lattes.cnpq.br/7930636205116799
    Obesity, a multifactorial chronic disease, is defined as an accumulation of abnormal or excessive fat that can be harmful to health, affecting people of all social groups and ages. It is contemporary, being spread in developed and developing countries around the world. Its occurrence causes, in addition to the consequences of obesity itself on quality of life and health, the development of other comorbidities that are associated with it. Heart disease, high cholesterol, type 2 diabetes, sleep apnea, osteoarthritis, cancer and mental illnesses are triggered or worsened by the presence of obesity. Among the causes of the pathology are the increase in the rate of sedentary lifestyle and the maintenance of eating habits increasingly rich in ultra-processed foods with high levels of sugar, fat and sodium. Likewise, the analysis of the social determinants of obesity is addressed, which contributes to the development of reflections and promotion of the identification of effective solutions to issues that refer to gender, race, level of education, economic inequality and other situations, given that the intensity of chronic non-communicable diseases such as obesity varies according to certain contexts. Based on the aspects mentioned, the objective of this study is to carry out a bibliographical review addressing the main definitions, numbers, projections, causes, impacts and treatment measures available to combat obesity in the country. This is a literature review with searches in online databases such as Google Scholar, PubMed and SciELO, as well as websites of the World Health Organization, Pan American Health Organization and Ministry of Health. The selection criteria were scientific productions with freely available texts, in English and Portuguese and with the time frame of the most accessed publications in recent years. It can be concluded that so far, it is not possible to observe a decrease in the numbers of overweight and obesity in the country. The social determinants of obesity such as gender, social class, income and educational level, for example, must be debated in order to establish strategies to combat the pathology in the population. State intervention with the development of public policies is crucial in the advancement and promotion of a society with healthy habits and which has as one of its pillars the quality of life and effective reduction in obesity rates and its associated diseases.

    (2024-03-07) Joaquim, Marcos Emmanuel Miranda; Lima, Anna Myrna Jaguaribe de; http://lattes.cnpq.br/6743434574905339
    Introduction: Sedentary behavior can be understood as any activity carried out while sitting or lying down, which does not significantly increase energy expenditure beyond resting levels, while academic performance can be understood as the degree of knowledge and the development of abilities of an individual in the course of a given educational level. Objective: In this sense, the objective of this work is to carry out a literature review on the influence of sedentary behavior on students' academic performance. Methodology: In this way, the bibliographic research method was carried out on the Scielo, Pubmed and Google Scholar platforms, between the months of October and November 2023. Using the following key words: “sedentary behavior” AND “academic performance”; “Sedentary Behavior” AND “Academic Performance” AND “Students”. Results: A total of 14 works were found, 13 articles and 1 doctoral thesis, where 1 article was found in the Scielo database, 1 doctoral thesis was found in the Google Scholar database and 1 doctoral thesis was found in the Scielo database. Pubmed 12 articles were found, based on the categorization criteria, analysis of titles and abstracts, 1 doctoral thesis from the Google Scholar database and 12 articles from the Pubmed database were defined. Conclusion: According to data analysis, it can be concluded that sedentary behavior can have a substantial negative impact on students' academic performance and that to combat the negative effects of sedentary behavior on academic performance, it is crucial to promote a lifestyle active and healthy among students.

    Aceitabilidade, aderência e segurança do exercício de agachamento isométrico na parede não supervisionado como quebra do comportamento sedentário em estudantes
    (2024-02-09) Cavalcante, Anderson; Farah, Breno Quintella; http://lattes.cnpq.br/6914216878368661; http://lattes.cnpq.br/4871147676147788
    Introduction: Sedentary behavior involves remaining in a seated, reclined, and/or lying position with metabolic expenditure equal to or similar to basal values for extended periods. This behavior poses health risks, such as affecting blood pressure and endothelial function, among other issues. Reducing sedentary behavior is crucial, and there are potential ways to decrease it, although their feasibility has not been thoroughly analyzed. Isometric wall squat exercises may be a viable strategy. Objective: To assess the Acceptability, adherence, and safety of unsupervised isometric wall squat exercises as a strategy to break sedentary behavior in university students. Methods: Five students participated in the training group (GT) and performed isometric wall squats every hour with intensity determined by incremental testing over 12 weeks. Acceptability, adherence, and safety of the intervention were evaluated at the end of the eighth week. Results: The GT demonstrated 60% acceptability, with a 50% adherence rate. No health problems were reported by the participants. Conclusion: The isometric wall squat appears to be safe with good adherence and acceptability as a break in sedentary behavior in higher education students.

    Modificações no consumo alimentar, na atividade física e comportamento sedentário em crianças em idade escolar no período de isolamento social da pandemia de COVID-19
    (2022-12-05) Lessa, Lorena Liandra Emídio; Tassitano, Rafael Miranda; http://lattes.cnpq.br/8162584900913172; http://lattes.cnpq.br/3532218757424078
    Social isolation was used as a tactic to slow the spread of severe respiratory syndrome caused by coronavirus type 2 (SARS -CoV-2) in several countries around the world, including Brazil. As a result, schools were closed and children's schedules were changed, which had an impact on diet, sedentary behavior and physical activity. The aim of the study is to analyze changes in diet, sedentary behavior and physical activity among school-age children during the COVID-19 pandemic. A cross-sectional study with a quantitative-qualitative methodology was carried out with 120 fathers, mothers or other guardians of children aged 5 to 10 years enrolled in five full-time schools in Arapiraca, Alagoas, Brazil. A cross-sectional study with a quantitative-qualitative methodology was carried out with 120 fathers, mothers or other guardians of children aged 5 to 10 years enrolled in five full-time schools in Arapiraca, Alagoas, Brazil. To achieve the research objective, two interviews were carried out between May 27 and June 5, addressing topics such as sedentary behavior, physical activity and food before and during social isolation. Significant differences (p < 0.05) were found in routine and sleep time (10% increase), screen time (36% increase) before vs during the COVID-19 pandemic, on weekdays and weekends, which involves sedentary behavior. It was also observed a reduction in the practice of physical activity (54%) and worsening in food (66.7%). Therefore, the results point to COVID-19 pandemic behaviors that can be harmful to children's health, and schools can be a key social environment for protection against exposure to such behaviors.
