O presente trabalho tem como objetivo cardinal a estimativa da prevalência de NS numa amostra 128 indivíduos adultos (81 do sexo feminino e 47 do masculino) pertencentes à Colecção de Esqueletos Identificados Século XXI (Departamento de Ciências da Vida, Universidade de Coimbra). Adicionalmente, pretende-se demarcar a sua distribuição anatómica na coluna vertebral, e averiguar possíveis vínculos com o sexo biológico e a idade à morte. Foi registada uma prevalência total de 61,7%, a mesma para ambos os sexos. A idade à morte dos indivíduos com NS (média = 80,7 anos; DP = 8,1) é praticamente idêntica à dos indivíduos sem NS (média = 81,7 anos; DP = 9,9). Não foram encontradas, portanto, associações entre a presença de NS e o sexo biológico ou a idade à morte. A maioria das lesões, frequentemente localizadas no centro dos corpos vertebrais, foi classificada como severa. As vértebras mais afetadas foram a L1 (3,0%), a L2 (2,9%), bem como a T11 e a T12 (ambas com 2,8%). De fato, a região toracolombar foi a mais afetada, possivelmente devido à sobrecarga de forças, à amplitude de movimentos e à menor espessura do disco intervertebral nessa região da coluna vertebral, bem como às limitações biomecânicas associadas à postura bípede.","PeriodicalId":40719,"journal":{"name":"Antropologia Portuguesa","volume":"8 7","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2023-12-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139009263","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We used data from a cross-sectional study of a representative sample of 5359 Portuguese children aged 3 to 5 years in 2009-10. Measures of adiposity indices included age-specific body mass index z-score (BAZ) and skinfold (suprailiac, subscapular and triceps) thickness. RWG was defined as the difference between z-scores of weightfor- age and birthweight > 0.67 Standard Deviation. Quantile regression models were used to estimate the difference in the 50th (median) and 90th (upper end) percentiles of each measure by RWG. Rapid weight gain in early years (62.5% of children) was associated with greater levels of BAZ and skinfold thickness measures, both for the median and 90th percentile. For the median, the difference was 1.08 (95% CI: 1.01-1.16) for BAZ, 1.11 mm (95% CI: 0.98-1.25) for suprailiac, 0.99 mm (95% CI: 0.87-1.11) for subscapular and 1.34 mm (95% CI: 1.11-1.57) for triceps skinfolds thickness after the adjustments. The increases in the 90th percentiles of adiposity measures associated with RWG were greater than those in median levels. RWG in childhood was associated with increased levels of adiposity measures, independent of prenatal and childhood factors.","PeriodicalId":40719,"journal":{"name":"Antropologia Portuguesa","volume":"19 24","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2023-12-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138977191","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The article introduces the Akha definition of childhood in relation to their cosmology, showing how cosmological forces are vital to a child’s survival and health, and how this perception shapes villagers’ childcare practices. Children are viewed as creatures of both the human world and the ghost world, and human parents have to fight with ghosts to protect the life of their children. Two pairs of gods and goddesses of children pose additional threats to children’s survival and health, but they also bestow blessings and protection at ritual and daily occasions. Meanwhile, because children are born with souls, they might fall sick if their souls are scared away. Finally, there are two hostile beings associated with neighbouring ethnic groups that cause disease, or even death, to vulnerable children. To protect children from all these multiple life-threatening cosmological forces, Akha villagers have developed several ritual care practices such as daily caring acts, protective talisman, and healing rituals. These practices are meant to deal with cosmological forces, and as such, they transcend more secular dimensions of bodily and emotional care (including biomedicalized forms of care), thus broadening the meaning and the scope of what is conventionally understood to be included in the work of care by social scientists and medical professionals who approach the subject with a strictly secular paradigm.","PeriodicalId":40719,"journal":{"name":"Antropologia Portuguesa","volume":"18 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2023-12-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139008570","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Science and technology bring not only choices to reproductive consumers but also challenges. However, we know very little about how people actually make decisions when it comes to reproductive matters. Santos’ Chinese village life today and Gottschang’s Formulas for motherhood in Chinese hospital generously discuss this issue of reproductive choices and struggles in a context — China — that has been undergoing profound largescale social and cultural transformations since the 1980s and 1990s. Santos’ monograph is not just about matters of reproduction, but this theme is central to the main argument of the book regarding the increasing role of science and technology in the governance of family and community life. I chose these two books because they speak to each other in the way they approach the increasing medicalization and technologization of reproductive practices (such as family planning, pregnancy, childbirth, and/or postpartum recovery) from the perspective of women and their families.

This study aims to document rib fracture patterns in the Coimbra Identified Skeletal Collection, Department of Life Sciences, University of Coimbra. Specific aims of this study included the estimation of rib fracture prevalence in 252 individuals, from both sexes (females: 128; males: 124), with age-at-death varying from 20 to 96 years; and the analysis of the relationship between rib fractures and age-at-death, biological sex, and bone mineral density measured at the proximal femur. The crude prevalence of rib fractures is 6.3% (16 cases in a total of 252 individuals observed); while the true prevalence rate is 0.7% (38 fractured ribs in relation to 5656 ribs studied). Males have been more affected than females (males: 10.5%, 13/124; females: 2.3%, 3/128). Individuals with one or more rib fractures were significantly older (mean=66.19 years old; standard deviation [SD]=14.08) than those who have not experienced any rib fracture (mean=50.41 years old; SD=19.45). Bone mineral density was also associated with the presence of rib fractures but only in females. These results expand the scientific awareness about the prevalence of rib fractures in human skeletal collections.","PeriodicalId":40719,"journal":{"name":"Antropologia Portuguesa","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2022-12-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46468365","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
