The variable age and cardiovascular risk obtained a statistically significant relationship with a p= 0.001, with an OR of 0.35 indicating that age is a protective factor. CONCLUSIONS: Most of the teaching staff of the universities, do not perform enough physical activity to obtain benefits on their health, As for the relationship between the age variable and cardiovascular risk, the older the more likely to suffer risk cardiovascular to this would be added the lifestyle of the individual.Item Estrategias de evaluación funcional en deportistas.

Considering the above, a sports injury, is the damage caused by physical exercise, to the structure, either of the muscle, bone or soft tissue causing discomfort, feeling of pain and as a consequence a loss of sports performance to prevent this from happening it is important to constantly assess and monitor their physical qualities by means of tests or batteries of specific in this case of functional evaluation, which assess the quality of the specific movements of each athlete and discipline, re-entry to the sport and as some authors refer to the prediction of muscle injuries. Objective: to identify the tests or scales currently used for functional evaluation in athletes. Materials and methods: a documentary review of the existing literature in the period 2010-2020 was carried out according to the proposed inclusion and exclusion criteria. Results and conclusions: the results indicate that in the field of functional evaluation of the athlete there is little scientific evidence in certain tests, which is why it is necessary to explore and consider the possibility of creating new assessment batteries specific to each sport discipline, in order to complement the physiotherapist’s functions from aspects of prevention of sports injuries, empowerment and sports rehabilitation.Item Realidad virtual en la rehabilitación de la lesión de medular.

The search for articles in the different databases yielded a total of 83 documents; once reviewed, 30 articles were included that met the inclusion criteria. Results: 30 studies met the inclusion criteria. Each of the studies reported at the end of the study a series of benefits or effects in various components; The areas in which the greatest amount of benefits were reported correspond to the level of Postural Control / balance (CP / B), followed by Mobility (M), aspects such as Independence (i) and Strength (F) do not show to have been evaluated as recurrent as Mobility and Postural Control. Therefore, it is recommended to extend the research carried out to enrich the field, to use technology that involves VR in patients with SCI to improve their Mobility, Control and Posture.
