This study aimed to estimate the prevalence of obstructive respiratory diseases in the Indigenous population attended by a specialized outpatient clinic in Passo Fundo, Rio Grande do Sul, and to investigate related sociodemographic, epidemiological, and clinical factors. A cross-sectional design was adopted, with a sample of 101 Indigenous participants aged between 18 and 87 years. Data collection was conducted through questionnaires applied directly to participants between March and July 2025. Descriptive statistical analysis included the calculation of means, standard deviations, and frequencies. The relationship between variables was assessed using the Chi-square and Fisher’s Exact tests, with a significance level of p < 0.05. Results showed a 14.9% prevalence (95% CI: 7.96–21.84) of obstructive respiratory diseases. In the relationship analysis, statistical significance was observed between the outcome and diagnoses of anxiety (p < 0.001) and diabetes (p = 0.044). These findings may support the development of more effective public health policies aimed at improving respiratory health among Indigenous populations, considering the coexistence of mental and metabolic comorbidities.

Physical exercise has been studied as a noninvasive stimulus capable of improving the prognosis of patients with coronary artery disease (CAD). Objectives: To analyze the evidence on the effects of physical exercise on the formation and functionality of coronary collateral circulation in patients with CAD. Methods: This systematic review followed PRISMA 2020 guidelines. Searches were performed in the PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science databases using the descriptors coronary collateral circulation, exercise, physical activity, and coronary artery disease. Clinical studies evaluating physical exercise in the formation or functionality of collaterals by direct or indirect methods were included. Results: From 2,549 records identified, 17 studies met the inclusion criteria. Overall, the evidence showed that supervised physical exercise of moderate to high intensity improves the functionality of coronary collateral circulation, reflected by enhanced myocardial perfusion and reduced ischemic response. Regarding formation, the evidence was less consistent, with new vessel development mainly observed in prolonged or ischemic training protocols. Conclusions: Physical exercise enhances the functionality of coronary collateral circulation and may modestly favor structural formation, improving myocardial perfusion through collateral recruitment. These findings reinforce supervised exercise as a safe and effective therapeutic strategy for the rehabilitation of stable CAD patients.

This systematic review aimed to evaluate the influence of different dietary approaches on prostate cancer progression. Literature searches were conducted in PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science databases, covering the period from 2016 to 2025, following the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses 2020 guidelines. Observational and interventional studies assessing dietary patterns in relation to tumor progression outcomes were included. Eight studies met the eligibility criteria, addressing low-carbohydrate, ketogenic, Mediterranean, and plant-based diets, as well as global dietary quality indices. Low-carbohydrate and ketogenic diets demonstrated prolonged prostate-specific antigen doubling time, while the Mediterranean diet showed a moderate but inconsistent protective effect. Plant-based diets were consistently associated with a reduced risk of disease progression, particularly among patients with high-grade tumors, whereas global indices such as the Healthy Eating Index and the Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension showed no significant associations. In conclusion, specific dietary interventions may play an adjuvant role in prostate cancer management, although further large-scale randomized controlled trials are needed to confirm these findings.
