Cancer is a highly lethal disease whose incidence has been increasing in recent years.Radiation Therapy consists in the use of ionizing radiation produced by linear accelerators or emitted by natural or artificial isotopes for therapeutic purpose and is one of the three pillars of modern cancer treatment. Intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) represent one of the greatest advances in Radiotherapy history. This technique modulates beam intensity and permit that prescription dose reach the target, sparring normal tissue, leading to fewer collateral effects and in some cases better local control. Central Army Hospital, seeking to fit in this context, acquires a new linac in 29 Th June of 2016, and in June of 2017 the first patient was treated with IMRT. The objective of this work is to describe all the cases treated with IMRT until April of 2018 and make a bibliography review about this technique.

Burnout Syndrome and occupational stress have a significant impact on workers when physical, cognitive and psychological demands exceed their abilities to cope with them, which is now a public health problem due to the negative impact that health and performance of the worker. Thus, this study is presented with the purpose of investigating the presence of these disorders specifically in the professional category of the military of the Brazilian Army, through a survey of the casuistry of occupational stress in this population in the current literature, dimensioning the physical, psychic and social impact of the disease. This study intends to bring to the discussion the aspects inherent to the military profession that can be considered as risk factors or worse ning of occupational stress and Burnout Syndrome, if it is feasible to minimize these triggering factors, how it is possible to perform the early diagnosis and then offer treatment. Bringing these aspects to the discussion it is possible to propose and encourage the inclusion of protocols for the investigation of occupational disorders in the regular health inspections to which the military of the Brazilian Army are submitted

The military carries out various physical and mental activities with potential health risks. Exercise related myopathies are very common in sports practice, and these are mainly caused by bruises and excessive muscle forces, making it necessary and essential to know about these injuries in order to improve the muscle regeneration process and preventive measures. Objectives: To evaluate clinical, laboratory, therapeutic and preventive aspects of exercise induced myopathy. A bibliographic review of articles indexed in the electronic databases of the National Library of Medicine and the National Institutes of Health (PubMed) and the Virtual Health Library (VHL), using references from Latin American and Caribbean Literature Health (LILACS). In addition, an evaluation of the bibliographic references of the selected articles was carried out to identify other potentially relevant studies. The descriptors were obtained from the DeCS and MeSH (Descriptors in Health Sciences and Medical Subject Headings, respectively),and the selection of studies was restricted to articles in humans. The enzymes creatine kinase (CK) and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) are useful as muscle injury markers for the evaluation of exercise intensity. In the acute phase, immediate treatment for s keletal muscle injury is known as the PRICE (Protection, Rest, Ice, Compression and Elevation) principle. The postacute treatment consists of physiotherapy and specific muscle training. The optimal nutritional intake pre and post exercise is important to assist in the repair and reconditioning of muscle damage. The decision to return to specific training after injury should be based on the ability to stretch the injured muscle as much as the contralateral healthy side, and absence of pain in the injured muscle in basic movements.
