ABSTRACT Objective: to analyze the knowledge of the elderly assisted by the Unified Health System (Sistema Único de Saúde, SUS) about HIV/AIDS infection in a health unit, before and after an educational intervention. Method: a quasi-experimental study analyzing the changes related to the knowledge about HIV/AIDS of 60 elderly individuals divided into two groups, who participated in an educational intervention, in an outpatient clinic of a SUS rehabilitation center in the second half of 2016. To evaluate the effectiveness of the teaching/learning process, a semi-structured questionnaire called QHIV3I was applied before and after the intervention. For data analysis, the generalized version of McNemar's chi-square test was used. Results: comparing the knowledge of the elderly before and after the educational intervention showed a higher number of correct answers, with a minimum percentage of 3.34% and a maximum of 75%. Significant statistical differences were found in one of the questions in the concept, transmission and treatment domains; and in the two vulnerability questions. Conclusion: it was found that the educational intervention contributed to the improvement of knowledge about HIV/AIDS in the elderly population. Thus, it is reasserted that the health promotion policy finds its essential foundation in health education strategies.

Background: Childhood obesity has become an epidemic in the recent years. Reports suggest that children suffering from obesity are predisposed to obesity in adulthood as well the many related comorbidities like hypertension, diabetes, etc. Therefore, it is necessary to develop programs to curb obesity early on. Aim: To study the effectiveness of aerobic exercise on obese and overweight children Methodology: A quasi-experimental study carried out at two schools in Kolhapur, Maharashtra (n=30, control and experimental each). A pilot study was first carried out in two schools (n=8), followed by the main study. Post discussions with the experts in the field, a questionnaire tool was developed and validated. Overweight and obese adolescents were included in the study. Anthropometric parameters like height, weight, body mass Index were recorded. and aerobic exercise intervention was provided for a month by a trained instructor. After one-month anthropometric measurements were taken again. Difference between the parameters were calculated by Wilcoxon signed rank test. P-value of <0.05 was considered as significant. Results: There was a significant reduction in the weight (P=9.14e-07) , BMI (P= 1.805e-06) and waist to hip ratio (P=0.0005) in the experimental group as opposed to control group where no difference was observed. Conclusion: Aerobic exercise has a significant effect on the reduction of weight in obese and overweight adolescents and should be considered in schools and at community levels
