TL;DR: Results from controlled trials suggest that PA intervention may improve physical fitness and risk factors for cardiovascular disease in adolescents who are overweight or obese.
Abstract: The increasing prevalence of obesity in the pediatric age range has become a major concern. Studies have investigated the role of physical activity (PA) to prevent obesity in this population. However, previous reviews did not focus on the effects of PA in overweight/obese adolescents on physical fitness and risk factors for cardiovascular disease altogether. The present systematic review analyzed trials investigating the effect of PA on aerobic capacity, muscle strength, body composition, hemodynamic variables, biochemical markers, and endothelial function in obese/overweight adolescents. PubMed, LILACS, Web of Science, Scopus (including Embase), and SPORTDiscus databases were searched for relevant reports without time limits. Inclusion criteria included studies published in English, with overweight and obese adolescents aged 12–17 years. The review was registered (Number CRD42013004632) on PROSPERO, the International Prospective Register of Systematic Reviews. The results indicated that PA is associated with significant and beneficial changes in fat percentage, waist circumference, systolic blood pressure, insulin, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, and total cholesterol, as well as with small non-significant changes in diastolic blood pressure, glucose, and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol. Although limited, results from controlled trials suggest that PA intervention may improve physical fitness and risk factors for cardiovascular disease in adolescents who are overweight or obese.

TL;DR: In this article, a lancamento da Politica Nacional de Atencao Integral a Saude do Homem (principios e diretrizes), disponibilizado pelo Ministerio da Saude em agosto de 2008, is discussed.
Abstract: Este artigo trata do lancamento da Politica Nacional de Atencao Integral a Saude do Homem pelo governo brasileiro, em 2008. Analisamos as acoes da Sociedade Brasileira de Urologia (SBU) nos anos que precederam o lancamento dessa politica, e sua atuacao durante sua implantacao, focalizada na caracterizacao da disfuncao eretil como problema de saude publica. Examinamos em seguida o documento "Politica Nacional de Atencao Integral a Saude do Homem (principios e diretrizes)", disponibilizado pelo Ministerio da Saude em agosto de 2008. A partir desses dados, buscamos discutir o modo como o discurso dos especialistas (no caso, os medicos urologistas) se articula ao discurso militante dos movimentos sociais, tendo como objetivo a medicalizacao do corpo masculino. Argumentamos que tal objetivo, sustentado na afirmacao do direito a saude, implica a ideia de uma masculinidade em si "insalubre", e visa, ao contrario das politicas voltadas para as mulheres e outras minorias, ao "desempoderamento" do sujeito a qual se dirige.
