Research on Physical and Psychological Activities of Sports Players in Association with Primary Angle Glaucoma
Abstrct
People with primary angle glaucoma should be cautious about the physical activities they engage in, as these activities might lead to a rise in intraocular pressure. Hence, improvements in healthcare sectors have assisted in dispelling these myths. Yet, due to increased competition, those with primary angle glaucoma are more prone to experience psychological anguish. This research aims to investigate the effect of mental and physical activities on the psychological stress of athletes with primary angle glaucoma. For this reason, an experimental study was done, and around 115 athletes from diverse Iraqi public high schools were chosen. They were divided into four groups: control, physical, psychological, and combined activities. This study was done over 12 weeks, and the "Psychological Stress Scale" was utilized to measure psychological stress for all groups. The statistical analysis was conducted using SPSS. After 12 weeks of experimental treatment, both psychological and physical groups had a significant impact on various dimensions of psychological stress, including development (p= 0.012), social contact (p= 0.015), and life (p= 0.031) (p ˂0.05), total scores (p= 0.001), life events (p= 0.002), and family (p= 0.0001) (p ˂0.01). The physical exercises were kept at a moderate to low intensity to prevent exertion on the volunteers. This study concludes that combining physical and psychological activities is essential for lowering psychological stress in players with primary angle glaucoma.

The advent of cinema brought with it its use as a propaganda device with which to transmit ideals and doctrines. As a result, newsreels and cinema documentaries were born with the aim of showing the «most relevant» news of the country and abroad, the former with a shorter duration. In this study, the Spanish NO-DO and «Sucesos Argentinos» are used as primary sources to interpret the images and imaginaries that were projected between 1943 and 1955 on female physical culture. The intention is to understand the official discourse of both political regimes on what Argentinean and Spanish society should be like, especially by questioning those meanings about women. In total, 69 issues of NO-DO and 14 editions of «Sucesos Argentinos» have been found which aim to show female physical culture in this period. The female physical culture shown in both newsreels was aimed at strengthening women’s bodies so that they could carry out their «natural functions» (mother, wife, housewife), as well as highlighting their «inferiority» in relation to men through lower impact activities and the homogenization of bodies through clothing, and the performance of the same exercises in synchrony. And all this in countries with different regimes, but which, in the end, coincided.
