(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2017-12-12) NASCIMENTO, Rodolfo Gomes do; PINTO, Denise da Silva; http://lattes.cnpq.br/9586650002626739; MAGALHÃES, Celina Maria Colino; http://lattes.cnpq.br/1695449937472051
The purpose of this thesis was to understand the interactions between indicators of biological fragility and health conditions of the elderly in the Amazonian riverside context. To this end, we carried out an explanatory-correlational study with 108 elderly people in the region of the islands of the city of Cametá, Pará. Structurally, the thesis is organized in four empirical studies. The first study allowed understanding the particularities of the routines and the way of life of these elderly people, as well as the housing conditions of the riverside context. Despite the housing and sanitation conditions, most of the homes used private power generators, mixed water supplies and were not connected to the sewage system. In addition, they had a variety of consumer goods. Regarding the degree of satisfaction with in relation to the home environment, they denoted positive perceptions for all domains investigated. Added to these data, it was noticed that most of the elderly emphatically expressed attachment to the amazonian riverside context, pointing out the desire to stay in these places. In the second study, referring to the demographic and socioeconomic characteristics, the majority of the elderly were male, aged between 60 and 69 years, with brown skin color, married, with five or more children and with predominant coexistence in their households with spouses and descendants. The majority werw of individuals literate, with incomplete elementary education, with personal income up to a minimum wage and family between one to two minimum wages, retired and without formal work, owners of their own homes and exercising leadership in the family. There was still a predominance among those who did not receive assistance from government programs and elderly people with catholic religious practice. The third study presents and discusses the multidimensional aspects of health. In general, the data pointed to the predominance of elderly people who evaluated how their own health was regulated and in the lateral social comparison the predominance of those who considered their health was better. The majority reported an excellent level of social support, did not present polypathy, polypharmacy, or recent hospitalization. The main comorbidities reported were rheumatic diseases and ophthalmological problems, and most used few drugs. Regarding access to health services, most reported that if they needed to, they would be able to access. There was a predominance of elderly individuals with a previous history of smoking, without the alcoholic habit and with a positive perception about the food practice. They were mostly eutrophic, but presented a cardiovascular risk factor, were not indicative of sarcopenia and were mostly normotensive. In addition, they did not present cognitive impairment, indicative of depressive symptoms nor a recent history of falls. Regarding functional capacity, there was a predominance of those with excellent performance for IADL and BADL. In the fourth and last study, the biological fragility, operationalized by the phenotype proposed by Fried et al. (2001) and their associations with multidimensional indicators is discussed. The results indicate a low prevalence of this syndrome (9.3%), with the majority of the sample classified as non-fragile elderly (51.9%), in contrast to other studies with urban elders. The domain of the phenotype that most contributed to the determination of fragility was "exhaustion" (30.6%) and the main associated factors were: higher age range, family management, work, cardiovascular risk, cognitive decline, depressive symptoms, multiple comorbidities. Given the novelty of this thesis, the results show that the joint action between the biological, psychological, social, historical, ecological and cultural factors interact and influence each other, conferring a development and a low biological fragility condition among the surveyed elderly people. Finally, it is hoped that this evidence will motivate further research on development/aging in these contexts.

Pobreza multidimensional, território e meios de vida na região da Ilha das Onças, Município de Barcarena-PA
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2019-07-02) RODRIGUES, Danuzia Lima; BAGOLIN, Izete Pengo; http://lattes.cnpq.br/9977571999200680; https://orcid.org/0000-0003-4325-7677; SANTOS, Ricardo Bruno Nascimento dos; http://lattes.cnpq.br/3685339264701382
This thesis deals with a study on the territorial dynamics that has developed in the region of the islands around the Metropolitan Region of Belém (RMB), state of Pará. The study is organized from a general introductory chapter on the Amartya Sen's training approach and its theoreticalmethodological developments in the field of multidimensional poverty assessment. Three chapters are presented in the form of articles dealing with the evaluation of multidimensional poverty based on different methodologies applied to a field study carried out in Ilha das Onças, municipality of Barcarena. For each of the chapters, we sought to develop and present alternative theoretical and methodological tools aimed at presenting a new look at the problem of the relationship between poverty and development, based on a key mediation commanded by a look at the territorial dimension. The first article, presented in chapter 3, starts from the observation of the impacts of the ongoing urbanization process throughout the region of the Amazon River Delta. Movement that includes the process of urbanization and growth of the Metropolitan Region of Belém (RMB). Chapter 4 deals with the application of a synthetic index inspired by the Multidimensional Poverty Index (IPM), adapted to the territorial conditions of the Island of Ounces. Chapter 5, in turn, deals in a specific way with the study developed to evaluate the vulnerability conditions of the livelihoods of the population living on the Island of Onças, which aims to be carried out based on the analysis of qualitative and quantitative conditions that are evaluation of the levels of training of the inhabitants of the island. The results point to the complexity of assessing multidimensional poverty when viewed from its territorial aspects. The process of increasing the vulnerability of riparian populations could be evaluated at the same time as the urbanization process advances. In this sense, it has been observed that, despite the improvement in income conditions, the local population still feels quite restricted in terms of the scope of their substantive freedoms, which seems to be accompanied by an increase in their degree of vulnerability to an excessive level of specialization that has led the population to a low degree of productive diversification.

Produção material de existência de ribeirinhos que vivem próximo a áreas urbanas
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2019-06) SILVA, Cledinei Oliveira da; PINHEIRO, Márcio Fernando Duarte; OLIVEIRA, Raimundo Nonato Leite de; SILVA, José Bittencourt da
The objective of this article is to describe in an analytical way, how a river community near of Belém city, produces and reproduces the conditions of their material life production. The text is based on exploratory field research, known as Survey type, with “in situ” observations, non-directive interviews and photographic records. In conclusion, the reality of the local riverside families is characterized by the multiplicity of laboral activities and the typical rationality of familiar base production and reproduction processes. Certainly, this socioeconomic dynamic is reproduced in other riverine territories in the Amazon. What follows are discussions proposed from previous objectives.
