Item Acute consumption of yacon shake did not affect glycemic response in euglycemic, normal weight, healthy adults(Journal of Functional Foods, 2018-05) Rocha, Daniela Mayumi Usuda Prado; Ribeiro, Priscila Vaz de Melo; Caldas, Ana Paula Silva; Silva, Bárbara Pereira da; Silva, Alessandra da; Almeida, Alinne Paula de; Silva, Nayara Benedito Martins da; Machado, Adriane Moreira; Alfenas, Rita de Cássia GonçalvesYacon (Smallanthus sonchifolius (Poepp.) H. Rob) is a natural source of fructooligosaccharides (FOS) studied for its potential as a functional food for prevention and management of chronic diseases, in part associated with its positive impact on glycemic response and body weight. However, yacon beneficial effect on glucose response and food intake control are still controversial. We investigated the acute effect of yacon consumption on glycemic response, subjective appetitive sensations, and food intake in a crossover trial. Fifteen healthy adults consumed 350 mL of yacon (21 g of yacon flour with 7.4 g of FOS) or control shake, on two non-consecutive days (washout). Yacon shake did not affect glycemic response, appetite or food intake. However, it is possible that positive effects of yacon consumption may turn evident only after its chronic consumption. Further studies are needed to assess the long-term effect of yacon consumption on glucose response and body weight control.Item Are Body Fat and Uric Acid associated with Cardiovascular Risk Scores? Cross-Sectional Analysis in the PROCARDIO-UFV Trial(International Journal of Cardiovascular Sciences, 2017-07) Rodrigues, Juliane Soares; Almeida, Alinne Paula de; Rosa, Carla de Oliveira Barbosa; Hermsdorff, Helen Hermana MirandaRisk scores are tools used to indicate the probability of occurrence of a certain cardiovascular event and to previously identify individuals at low, medium, and high risk for the development of cardiovascular diseases. To establish the cardiovascular risk of users of a cardiovascular health attention program of a university, and assess its association with lifestyle, clinical, sociodemographic data, and other cardiometabolic risk markers. Cross-sectional study with a sample of 197 participants. Demographic, anthropometric, clinical, and metabolic data, eating habits and lifestyle information were collected using the Global Risk Score and the Framingham Risk Score. P-value < 0,05 was considered statistically significant. According to the Framingham Risk Score, 84% of the assessed population was considered low risk and 16% as intermediate/high risk. However, according to the Global Risk Score, 18% of the participants were low risk, 45% were intermediate risk and 37% were high risk for infarction or death from coronary heart disease in 10 years. Excess body weight and uric acid serum levels showed to be significant cardiovascular risk markers in addition to those of the score and, consequently, they should be considered in clinical practice.Item Processo de acreditação das escolas promotoras de saúde em âmbito mundial: revisão sistemática(Ciência & Saúde Coletiva, 2019-02) Silva, Meirele Rodrigues Inácio da; Almeida, Alinne Paula de; Machado, Juliana Costa; Silva, Luciana Saraiva da; Cardoso, Juliana Aparecida Fialho; Costa, Glauce Dias da; Cotta, Rosângela Minardi MitreO objetivo deste artigo é analisar os critérios de acreditação dos estudos que avaliaram as ações de promoção da saúde e prevenção de fatores de risco das Escolas Promotoras de Saúde (EPSs). Realizou-se uma revisão sistemática conduzida a partir das recomendações propostas no guia Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviewsand Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) dos artigos que avaliaram as EPSs nas bases de dados: SciELO, Lilacs, Medline, PubMed e Portal Capes. A partir da análise dos três eixos para acreditação das EPS, três dos estudos analisados não contemplaram todos os critérios para serem certificadas como EPS nos eixos “Processo de Planejamento” e “Atividades de Promoção de Saúde desenvolvidas”. As escolas citadas nestes estudos apresentam atividades de educação em saúde, prevenção e/ou promoção da saúde, no entanto, é equivocado se autodenominarem EPS. Identificou-se como principais desafios enfrentados para a implantação, o desenvolvimento e a continuidade das EPS, a intersetorialidade e a insuficiência de recursos financeiros e humanos capacitados. As EPSs precisam ser certificadas e submetidas a um processo avaliativo contínuo. Sugere-se ainda a inclusão do tema promoção de saúde nos currículos dos cursos de formação dos professores e outros profissionais da educação e da saúde.
