RESUMO O DC de Neuroimunologia da ABN e o BCTRIMS trazem, nesse documento, as recomendações sobre vacinação da população com doenças desmielinizantes do sistema nervoso central (SNC) contra infecções em geral e contra o coronavírus da síndrome respiratória aguda grave 2 (SARS-CoV-2), causador da COVID-19. Destaca-se a gravidade do atual momento frente ao avanço da COVID-19 em nosso País, o que torna mais evidente e importante a criação de guia de referência para orientação aos médicos, pacientes e autoridades de saúde pública quanto à vacinação, meio efetivo e seguro no controle de determinadas doenças infecciosa. O DCNI/ABN e o BCTRIMS recomendam que os pacientes com doenças desmielinizantes do SNC (ex., EM e NMOSD) sejam constantemente monitorados, quanto a atualização do seu calendário vacinal, especialmente, no início ou antes da mudança do tratamento com uma droga modificadora de doença (DMD). É importante também salientar que as vacinas são seguras e os médicos devem estimular o seu uso em todos os pacientes. Evidentemente, deve ser dada especial atenção às vacinas com vírus vivos atenuados. Por fim, é importante que os médicos verifiquem qual DMD o paciente está em uso e quando foi feita a sua última dose, pois cada fármaco pode interagir de forma diferente com a indução da resposta imune.

ABSTRACT The Scientific Department of Neuroimmunology of the Brazilian Academy of Neurology (DCNI/ABN) and Brazilian Committee for Treatment and Research in Multiple Sclerosis and Neuroimmunological Diseases (BCTRIMS) provide recommendations in this document for vaccination of the population with demyelinating diseases of the central nervous system (CNS) against infections in general and against the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), which causes COVID-19. We emphasize the seriousness of the current situation in view of the spread of COVID-19 in our country. Therefore, reference guides on vaccination for clinicians, patients, and public health authorities are particularly important to prevent some infectious diseases. The DCNI/ABN and BCTRIMS recommend that patients with CNS demyelinating diseases (e.g., MS and NMOSD) be continually monitored for updates to their vaccination schedule, especially at the beginning or before a change in treatment with a disease modifying drug (DMD). It is also important to note that vaccines are safe, and physicians should encourage their use in all patients. Clearly, special care should be taken when live attenuated viruses are involved. Finally, it is important for physicians to verify which DMD the patient is receiving and when the last dose was taken, as each drug may affect the induction of immune response differently.

Resumen: En | Texto: En | PDF: En

BACKGROUND Only benznidazole (Bnz) (1) and nifurtimox (Nfx) (2) are licensed for the treatment of Chagas disease although their safety and efficacy profile are far from ideal. Farmanguinhos from Fiocruz has developed seven nitroimidazole compounds (4-10) analogs of megazol (3). OBJECTIVES To evaluate whether the genotoxic effect of 3 was abolished in the seven nitroimidazoles (4-10) analogs using the in vitro alkaline comet assay (CA) and the in vitro cytokinesis-block micronucleus assay (CBMN) in whole human blood cells (WHBC) and correlate this effect with their trypanocidal activity using bloodstream trypomastigote forms of Trypanosoma cruzi. METHODS The toxicity of 3-10 to WHBC in the in vitro CA was determined using the fluorescein diacetate/ethidium bromide assay. DNA damage in the in vitro CA was evaluated according to tail size in four classes (0-3) and methyl methane-sulfonate (MMS) was used as a positive control. The cytotoxicity of 3-10 to WHBC in the CBMN was measured using the cytokinesis-block proliferation index and the replication index. The number of the micronucleate cells in 2,000 binucleate cells by experimental group was determined. Mitomycin C and N-deacetyl-N-methylcolchicine were used as positive controls. FINDINGS Compound 3 showed a significant DNA strand break effect through the in vitro CA and highly significant clastogenic and/or aneugenic effect in the CBMN. Compounds 5, 6, 8, 9 and 10 showed negative results in the CBMN and positive results in the in vitro CA, while the inverse effect was observed for 4 and 7. MAIN CONCLUSIONS Compound 10 was the most promising to proceed with the development as a drug candidate in the treatment of Chagas disease showing absence of chromosomal cytogenetic damage and high activity against T. cruzi, about two times higher than 3 and the clinical drug 1.

Resumen: En | Texto: En | PDF: En

Abstract Background: Several studies have demonstrated that platelet counts in Helicobacter pylori-positive patients with chronic idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura improved significantly after successful eradication of the infection. However, depending of the geographical region of the study the results have been highly divergent. Objective: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of H. pylori eradication therapy on platelet count in a cohort of chronic idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura patients from northeastern Brazil. Method: H. pylori status was determined in 28 chronic idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura patients using the rapid urease test and histology. H. pylori-positive patients received standard triple therapy for one week. The effect of the eradication therapy was evaluated using the 13C-urea breath test two to three months after treatment. Results: The prevalence of H. pylori infection was similar to that found in the general population. Twenty-two patients (78.5%) were H. pylori-positive. Fifteen were treated, 13 (86%) of whom successfully. At six months, 4/13 (30%) displayed increased platelet counts, which remained throughout follow-up (12 months). Platelet response was not associated to mean baseline platelet count, duration of chronic idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura, gender, age, previous use of medication, or splenectomy. Conclusions: H. pylori eradication therapy showed relatively low platelet recovery rates, comparable with previous studies from southeastern Brazil. The effect of H. pylori eradication on platelet counts remained after one year of follow-up suggesting that treating H. pylori infection might be worthwhile in a subset of chronic idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura patients.

RESUMO O TCTH autólogo é uma importante alternativa para os pacientes de LH refratários ou recidivados, em termos de sobrevida e melhora da qualidade de vida. O presente trabalho analisa os resultados do TMO autólogo realizado em pacientes de LH na Unidade de Transplante do SH do HUWC/HEMOCE. Foram estudados 52 pacientes submetidos ao TMO de janeiro de 2009 a outubro de 2015, sendo 30 homens e 22 mulheres, média de idade de 28,2 anos. Todos receberam GCS-F na mobilização, em alguns casos associados a Vinorelbine ou a Plerixafor e coleta de CD34 com média de 4,8CD34/kilo. O condicionamento foi realizado com BEAC, NEAM ou BEAM e a enxertia com média de 10 dias. A avaliação no D+100 mostrou: RC – 42 (82,7%), RP – 08 (13,5%) e 02 (3,8%) óbitos ocorridos 3 e 6 dias após a infusão das células. Após o D+100, 08 pacientes em RC apresentaram recidiva do LH entre 6 e 36 meses; 3 foram a óbito e 5 estão em tratamento com brentuximabe; os 8 pacientes em RP, 1 faleceu por atividade do LH, 4 meses após o TMO e 7 estão em tratamento. A avaliação final dos pacientes de LH transplantados mostrou uma SG de 88,5% e SLD de 61,5% em 6 anos, SG dos pacientes quimiossensiveis de 81% e dos quimioresistentes de 72,6%. É possível concluir que o TCTH Autólogo se coloca como excelente terapia de resgate em relação à tolerância, bem como na sobrevida global.

SUMMARY The Autologous HSCT is an important alternative for refractory or recurrent HL patients in terms of survival and improved quality of life. This study analyzes the results of autologous BMT performed in HL patients in the Transplant Unit of the HUWC/ HEMOCE (Fortaleza - CE, Brazil). Fifty-two transplanted patients were studied from January 2009 to October 2015, among them, 30 men and 22 women, mean age of 28.2 years. All of them received GCS-F during the mobilization, in some cases associated with Vinorelbine or Plerixafor, with CD34 collection averaging 4.8 CD34/kg. The conditioning was performed with BEAC, NEAM or BEAM and the grafting with an average of 10 days. The evaluation on D + 100 showed: CR - 42 (82.7%), PR - 08 (13.5%) and 02 (3.8%) deaths, three and six days after cell infusion. After the D+100, 08 patients in CR showed HL recurrence from 06 to 36 months; 03 died and 05 are being treated with brentuximab; among the 08 patients in PR, 01 died due to HL activity, 04 months after BMT and 07 patients are undergoing treatment. The final evaluation of HL transplant patients showed an OS of 88.5% and a DFS of 61.5% in 6 years, with OS of the chemosensitive patients of 81% and of the chemoresistant ones, of 72.6%. It is possible to conclude that the Autologous HSCT has shown to be an excellent rescue therapy regarding tolerance, as well as the overall survival.

Resumen: En | Texto: En | PDF: En

Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) has been associated with 10% of gastric carcinomas. The aim of this study was to determine the frequency of EBV in gastric carcinomas in Brazil assessed by in situ hybridization (ISH) and PCR, which would contribute to the characterization of the clinical and pathological aspects of EBV-associated gastric carcinomas. One hundred and ninety-two gastric carcinoma cases were collected at hospitals in two Brazilian states. Seventy-three out of 151 cases were PCR(+), while 11/160 cases were ISH(+). Nine out of eleven ISH(+) cases displayed a diffuse staining pattern and 2 out of 11 a focal pattern. Both techniques showed that the EBV(+) cases were characterized by their association with males, older patients, lower gastric region, intestinal type, advanced stage and poorly to moderately differentiated tumors. The concordance between the two techniques was 55.8% (Cohen's kappa index = 0.034). Four cases were ISH(+)/PCR(-), while 49 cases were PCR(+)/ISH(-). Only two cases showed stained lymphocytes by ISH and one of them was PCR(-). The observed discrepancy between the two techniques could not be explained just by the elevated accuracy of PCR. ISH(+)/PCR(-) carcinomas may be encountered if EBV is not present in the whole tumor tissue or if there are polymorphisms in the sequences of the viral genome amplified. On the other hand, the high frequency of PCR(+) results associated with the absence of ISH staining in lymphocytes and/or tumors cells suggests that the virus may be present in tumor cells or other cell types without expressing EBER1, the target of the ISH technique.

Resumen: En | Texto: En | PDF: En

BACKGROUND: Chronic myeloid leukemia is a neoplasm characterized by clonal expansion of hematopoietic progenitor cells resulting from the (9:22)(q34,11) translocation. The tyrosine kinase abl fusion protein,the initial leukemogenic event in chronic myeloid leukemia, is constitutively activated thus inducing the production of reactive oxygen species. Of particular relevance is the fact that an increase in reactive oxygen species can facilitate genomic instability and may contribute to disease progression. OBJETIVE: To evaluate oxidative stress by determining the levels of malondialdehyde and nitrite in chronic myeloid leukemia patients under treatment with 1st and 2nd generation tyrosine kinase inhibitors monitored at a referral hospital in Fortaleza, Ceará. METHODS: A cross-sectional study was performed of 64 male and female adults. Patients were stratified according to treatment. The levels of malondialdehyde and nitrite were determined by spectrophotometry. Statistical differences between groups were observed using the Student t-test and Fisher's exact test. The results are expressed as mean ± standard error of mean. The significance level was set for a p-value < 0.05 in all analyses. RESULTS: The results show significantly higher mean concentrations of nitrite and malondialdehyde in chronic myeloid leukemia patients using second-generation tyrosine kinase inhibitors compared to patients on imatinib. Conclusion: It follows that chronic myeloid leukemia patients present higher oxidative activity and that the increases in oxidative damage markers can indicate resistance to 1st generation tyrosine kinase inhibitors.

AIM: The objective of this study was to correlate laboratory tests during the evolution of dengue fever, comparing frequencies between the different clinical forms in order to use test results to predict the severity of the disease. METHODS: This is an observational, descriptive and retrospective study of 154 patients with clinical and serological diagnoses of dengue fever who, in the period from January to May 2008, were admitted in a tertiary state hospital in the city of Fortaleza that is a referral center for infectious diseases. The patients were allocated to two groups according to age: under 15 years old (n = 66) and 15 years or older (n = 88). The tests analyzed were blood count, platelet count, and serum aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and alanine aminotransferase (ALT) concentrations. RESULTS: Thrombocytopenia and elevated transaminases were observed in patients with classic dengue fever. The main laboratory abnormalities found in dengue hemorrhagic fever were thrombocytopenia, hemoconcentration and elevated transaminases, similar to severe dengue with the exception of hemoconcentration. Most laboratory abnormalities started on the 3rd day but were more evident on the 5th day with restoration of values by the 11th day; this was more prominent in under 15-year-olds and with the more severe clinical forms. CONCLUSIONS: These results are relevant in assessing the disease because they can be used as markers for more severe forms and can help by enabling the adaptation of the therapeutic conduct to the needs of individual patients.

Resumen: En | Texto: En | PDF: En

Visceral leishmaniasis (VL) is a severe systemic infectious disease.(1) It has been recognized as an opportunistic disease in patients infected with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV).(2,3) The analysis of the bone marrow of patients co-infected with VL and HIV showed dysplasia of erythroid, granulocytic and megakaryocytic lineages (Figure 1), besides the presence of plasmacytosis, cytoplasmic bodies, hemophagocytosis, granuloma and intracellular and extracellular leishmania amastigotes (Figure 2). These findings are found in the analysis of bone marrow of patients co-infected with HIV and VL; knowledge of these findings may be useful for the diagnosis and prognosis of patients.

INTRODUÇÃO: O vírus Epstein-Barr (EBV) está associado a cerca de 10% dos adenocarcinomas gástricos, representando mais de 50 mil casos por ano no mundo. Apesar dos estudos realizados em várias partes do mundo, alguns aspectos clinicopatológicos permanecem controversos. OBJETIVOS: O presente estudo teve como objetivo analisar as características clinicopatológicas de casos de adenocarcinomas gástricos procedentes dos estados de São Paulo e Ceará, correlacionando-os com a detecção de EBV. MATERIAIS E MÉTODOS: Foram obtidos 192 casos de adenocarcinomas gástricos de hospitais dos estados de São Paulo e do Ceará, dos quais 160 foram submetidos à técnica de RNA-hibridização in situ para detecção de EBV. RESULTADOS: Dos 160 casos, 11 (6,9%) foram EBV-positivo, exibindo intensa marcação nuclear em células tumorais. Destes, dois casos também apresentaram linfócitos infiltrados marcados. Não encontramos marcação em tecido normal ou pré-neoplásico. São Paulo e Ceará apresentaram as frequências 3/60 (5%) e 8/100 (8%), respectivamente, e maior relação do EBV com indivíduos do sexo masculino, de idade avançada, com tumores do tipo intestinal, de estadiamento elevado e grau pouco a moderadamente diferenciado. Os casos do Ceará exibiram aumento relativo de tumores EBV(+) localizados na cárdia, enquanto os casos de São Paulo demonstraram aumento naqueles localizados no corpo gástrico. CONCLUSÃO: A frequência de tumores EBV(+) do presente estudo situa-se nos valores descritos na literatura mundial. Entre os achados, um deles não encontra paralelo na literatura mundial e refere-se ao elevado percentual de tumores EBV(+) no corpo gástrico observado nos casos de São Paulo.

INTRODUCTION: The Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) has been associated with approximately 10% of gastric adenocarcinomas, which represents more than 50,000 cases/year worldwide. Despite the studies undertaken in several countries, some clinical-pathological aspects remain contentious. OBJECTIVE: The objective of this study was to analyze clinical-pathological features of gastric adenocarcinomas from two Brazilian states, São Paulo and Ceará, by correlating them with EBV detection. MATERIALS AND METHODS: One hundred ninety-two gastric adenocarcinoma cases were selected from hospitals in São Paulo and Ceará, of which 160 were submitted to RNA in situ hybridization for EBV detection. RESULTS: Eleven (6.9%) out of 160 cases were EBV-positive with intense nuclear staining in tumor cells. Among these, two cases also showed stained infiltrating lymphocytes. There was no staining in normal or preneoplastic tissue. São Paulo and Ceará yielded the respective results: 3/60 (5%) and 8/100 (8%). In both states, EBV was more prevalent among elder male patients with little to moderately differentiated intestinal tumors in advanced stage. Ceará cases substantiated a relative increase in EBV(+) tumors located in the cardia, whereas São Paulo cases presented an increase in the gastric corpus. CONCLUSION: The frequency of EBV(+) tumors is similarly described in the literature. Among our findings, the elevated percentage of EBV(+) tumors in the gastric corpus, which was observed in São Paulo cases, is unprecedented in the literature.

Este estudo descreve aspectos da biologia floral e sistema reprodutivo de Passiflora edulis f. flavicarpa (Passifloraceae), incluindo os padrões de forrageio e comportamento dos visitantes florais. O estudo foi desenvolvido em cultivo irrigado no Projeto Maniçoba, em Juazeiro-BA, em 2005/2006. A antese floral ocorreu entre 12h e 13h, o fechamento da flor teve início às 18h, terminando por volta de 1h. O tempo para a deflexão dos estiletes foi de 71,4 ± 12,4 min, mas cerca de 5% das flores permaneceram com os estiletes sem curvatura. Os estigmas foram receptivos durante toda a antese, e os grãos de pólen apresentaram viabilidade de 94%. O volume de néctar foi em média de 100 µL, com 48% de concentração de açúcares. O número médio de grãos de pólen/ flor foi de 140.595 ± 34.175, e 426 ± 77 óvulos/ovário. As maiores taxas de frutificação (74%) foram obtidas com polinização cruzada manual, confirmando a existência de sistema de autoincompatibilidade. Registraram-se 10% de flores com quatro estigmas que, quando polinizadas manualmente, apresentaram frutos maiores e com maior número de sementes (477,7 ± 76,8). Observou-se correlação positiva entre o número de sementes e o peso dos frutos. Os visitantes florais identificados foram Apis mellifera, Trigona spinipes, Xylocopa grisescens, X. frontalis e X. cearensis. As abelhas A. mellifera e T. spinipes foram pilhadores de pólen e néctar, respectivamente. As abelhas do gênero Xylocopa foram mais frequentes nas flores durante o período seco, e A. mellifera, durante o período chuvoso. Os polinizadores efetivos foram X. grisescens e X. frontalis, constatando-se uma limitação desses polinizadores nas áreas estudadas. Entretanto, eles foram mais frequentes em outras espécies vegetais no período chuvoso, indicando competição com as flores dos maracujazeiros pelos serviços de polinização.

This study describes aspects of floral biology and the reproductive system of Passiflora edulis f. flavicarpa (Passifloraceae), including foraging patterns of the floral visitors in the region of São Francisco Valley. The study was carried out in irrigated orchards in the Maniçoba Project, in Juazeiro-BA, during 2005 and 2006. The floral anthesis occurred between midday and 1 pm. Flower closing started at 6 pm and finished around 1 am. The time for style deflexion was 71,4 ± 12,4 min, about 5% of the flowers remained with the style undefexed. The stigmas were receptive during the entire anthesis and the pollen grains presented 94% viability. The nectar volume was in average 100 µL, with 48% of sugar concentration . The average number of pollen grains/flower was 140,595 ± 34,175 and 426 ± 77 of ovules/ovary. The highest rates were obtained after manual crossed pollination (74%), confirming the existence of a system of self-incompatibility. We registered 10% of flowers with four stigmas, which when manually pollinated, produced bigger fruits with a higher number of seeds (477,7 ± 76,8). We found a positive correlation between the number of seeds and the weight of the fruits. The flower visitors were Apis mellifera, Trigona spinipes, Xylocopa grisescens, X. frontalis and X. cearensis. A. mellifera and T. spinipes being pollen and nectar robbers, respectively. Bees of the genus Xylocopa were more frequent during the dry season and A. mellifera during the wet season. The effective pollinators were X. grisescens and X. frontalis. We found that they were limited in number in the studied areas. However they were found to be more frequent in other plant species during the rainy season which indicates that these plant species compete with the passion fruit for pollination service.

Trombose refere-se à formação de constituintes sanguíneos de massa anormal dentro dos vasos e envolve a interação de fatores vasculares, celulares e humorais na corrente sanguínea circulante e pode desenvolver-se em artérias ou veias, sendo designada arterial ou venosa. Tanto a trombose arterial quanto a venosa são patologias de grande interesse médico com alto índice de morbidade e mortalidade. Este estudo objetivou verificar a associação de fatores de risco e o desenvolvimento de trombose venosa e arterial em pacientes do Centro de Hematologia e Hemoterapia do Estado do Ceará (Hemoce). Foram entrevistados 189 pacientes com eventos tromboembólicos e 349 voluntários saudáveis quanto aos fatores ambientais sabidamente envolvidos no desenvolvimento de trombose. Em análises univariadas e multivariadas, fumo (OR- 17,3, 14,9 e 33,3), o álcool (OR- 6,4, 5,8 e 13,5), a idade acima de 40 anos (OR-2) e o sexo feminino (OR- 3,7 e 4,1) foram estatisticamente significativos. O uso do fumo e do álcool, a idade avançada e o sexo feminino contribuíram para a ocorrência de trombose nos pacientes do estado do Ceará.

Thrombosis is the development of a solid mass or plug formed in the living heart or vessels from constituents of the blood and involves vascular, cells and humors factors. Arterial and venous thrombosis are very interesting of medicine because of the high-risk mortality and morbidly.

Resumen: Pt En | Texto: Pt En | PDF: Pt | PDF: En

O presente estudo foi desenvolvido durante os anos de 2005/2006, em plantio comercial de mangueira, da variedade Tommy Atkins, na Fazenda Frutex, em Petrolina-PE, objetivando verificar a biologia floral, bem como o estudo comparativo sobre o comportamento, a freqüência e a sazonalidade dos visitantes florais em cultivo orgânico e convencional. As inflorescências da mangueira apresentam flores masculinas e hermafroditas, na proporção de 2:1, com predominância das primeiras na base da panícula. A antese é diurna, assincrônica, com liberação de forte odor adocicado. As flores apresentam dicogamia, caracterizada pela deiscência das anteras 24h após a antese. A produção de néctar é contínua e em pequenas quantidades, em média 0,045 µL por flor. Quanto aos visitantes florais foram registradas 21 espécies, pertencentes às ordens: Diptera, Hymenoptera, Lepidoptera e Odonata. Apis mellifera foi a espécie mais freqüente nos dois tipos de cultivo. Dentre os dípteros, destacaram-se Belvosia bicincta (17,7%) e Musca domestica (10,2%) como as mais freqüentes em cultivo convencional e orgânico, respectivamente. A diversidade e o número de visitas foram maiores em cultivo orgânico. A utilização de agrotóxicos durante a floração reduziu a freqüência de visitas das abelhas em 50% e dos dípteros em 20%. Devido ao seu comportamento, freqüência e ativo deslocamento nas inflorescências, A. mellifera foi considerada como o polinizador mais eficiente da cultura para a região do Vale do Submédio São Francisco.

This study was carried out in 2005 and 2006, in a commercial mango Tommy Atkins plantation on Frutex Farm, in Petrolina-PE. The objective was to verify the floral biology as well as the comparative study of behaviour, the frequency and the seasonality of the floral visitors in both organic and conventional crops. The mango tree inflorescences present male and hermaphrodite flowers (2:1), with predominance of the first ones in the basis of the panicles. The anthesis is diurnal, asynchronic, with liberation of strong and sweat odour. The flowers present dicogamy, characterized by the anthers dehiscence 24 hours after the anthesis. The nectar production is continuous and in small amounts, on an average of 0,045µL/flower. Concerning the flower visitors, 21 species were registered, belonging to the orders Diptera, Hymenoptera, Lepidoptera and Odonata. Apis mellifera was the most frequent visitant in both types of crops. Among the Diptera, Belvosia bicincta (17,7%) and Musca domestica (10,2%) were the most frequent visitors in conventional and organic crops, respectively. The diversity and number of visitors were higher in the organic crop. The use of agrotoxics during the flowering period reduced the visit of bees (50%) and Diptera (20%). Because of its behaviour, frequency and active movement in the inflorescences, Apis mellifera was considered as the most efficient pollinator of the crop for the region of the São Francisco Submédio Valley.

As síndromes mielodisplásicas (SMD) e a anemia aplástica (AA) apresentam citopenias periféricas necessitando, com freqüência, de reposições transfusionais contínuas de concentrados de hemácias e/ou de concentrados de plaquetas. O objetivo do presente estudo foi verificar a ocorrência de anticorpos anti-HLA de classe I em pacientes portadores das SMD e AA atendidos no ambulatório de Hematologia do Hemoce/UFC. Foram analisados 110 pacientes, sendo 70 com SMD e 40 com AA. A pesquisa de anticorpos anti-HLA de classe I foi realizada frente a um painel (PRA), utilizando-se a técnica de microlinfocitotoxicidade dependente do complemento. Vinte (28,6%) dos 70 pacientes com as SMD e 18 (45%) dos 40 pacientes com AA desenvolveram anticorpos anti-HLA contra o PRA. Esses pacientes que receberam uma carga de antígenos estranhos advindos de múltiplas transfusões de vários doadores de CH e/ou CP, geralmente desenvolvem aloanticorpos contra os antígenos HLA presentes na superfície das plaquetas e dos leucócitos que contaminam esses concentrados. A produção desses anticorpos pode trazer sérias complicações para o tratamento dos pacientes com SMD e AA. As avaliações sistemáticas para detecção de anticorpos anti-HLA após a reposição transfusional podem ser valiosas para adoção de estratégias transfusionais mais adequadas para esta população de pacientes.

Patients with myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) or aplastic anemia (AA) present peripheral cytopenias and require continuous transfusions of red cell and/or platelet concentrates. The objective of this study is to verify the existence of anti-HLA class 1 antibodies in patients with MDS and AA treated at the hematology Out patient Clinic of Hemoce/UFC. A total of 110 patients were analyzed, 70 with MDS and 40 with AA. Anti-HLA class 1 antibody detection was achieved with an antibody reactivity panel using the complement-dependent microlymphocytotoxicity technique. A total of 20 (28.6%) of the 70 patients with MDS and 18 (45%) of the 40 patients with AA developed anti-HLA antibodies against the antibody panel. In general, patients who received a load of foreign antigens originating from multi-donor red cell and platelet concentrate transfusions, developed alloantibodies against the HLA antigens that exist on the surface of platelets and on white blood cells that contaminate these concentrates. The production of these antibodies may cause serious complications in the treatment of MDS and AA patientss.

A aloimunização eritrocitária após transfusão de concentrado de hemácias é uma complicação em pacientes com doenças crônicas que necessitam de transfusões de repetição. Esse estudo objetivou determinar a freqüência de aloimunização, identificar os aloanticorpos, estabelecer os fatores de risco envolvidos e quantificar o risco de aloimunização em pacientes com condições clínicas agudas, submetidos à transfusão de concentrados de hemácias no Instituto Doutor José Frota, utilizando a técnica de gel centrifugação. Foram analisados 5.690 receptores transfundidos com 16.547 concentrados de hemácias, sendo 4.025 do sexo masculino e 1.665 do sexo feminino. Foram excluídos 501 receptores com aloimunização prévia ou tempo de permanência hospitalar inferior a uma semana. Em 120 receptores (2,1%) foram detectados aloanticorpos eritrocitários, sendo 60 do sexo masculino (1,49%) e 60 do sexo feminino (3,60%). A aloimunização foi 2,4 vezes mais freqüente no sexo feminino, sendo que 93,33% das mulheres tinham história de gestação prévia. A média transfusional nos receptores aloimunizados foi de 4,68 bolsas, sendo 4,97 bolsas nos homens e 4,40 bolsas nas as mulheres. Nos pacientes não aloimunizados a média transfusional foi de 2,87 bolsas. O risco de aloimunização foi de 0,83%, sendo 0,59 no sexo masculino e 1,44% no sexo feminino. Os aloanticorpos detectados com maior freqüência foram anti-E (18,25%) e anti-D (16,06%) de um total de 137 aloanticorpos. O tempo médio de detecção dos aloanticorpos foi de 20,88 dias. O risco de aloimunização observado foi elevado para a média transfusional de receptores. A média de idade dos pacientes e o aumento da expectativa de vida aumentam a possibilidade de que transfusões posteriores sejam necessárias, sinalizando a necessidade de modificar o atual suporte hemoterápico a esses pacientes.

Alloimmunisation following red cell transfusion is a complication in patients with chronic diseases requiring multiple transfusions. The aim of this study was to determine the frequency of alloimmunisation, to identify involved alloantibodies, to establish risk factors and to quantify the alloimmunisation risk in patients with acute disorders who received red cell transfusion at the Instituto Dr. José Frota from January 1999 to January 2001. Of the 5,690 recipients who received 16,547 units of red blood cells, 4,025 were men and 1,665 were women. Recipients with previous alloimmunisation or with time of hospital stay less than one week were excluded (n = 501). Red cell alloantibodies were detected in 120 recipients (2.1%): 60 men (1.49%) and 60 women (3.60%). Alloimmunisation was 2.4 fold more frequent in women and 93.33% of the women were pregnant prevously. The average number of units transfused in the alloimmunised recipients was 4.68: 4.97 units in men and 4.40 units in women. In non-alloimmunised recipients the average was 2.87 units and the risk of alloimmunisation was 0.83%: 0.59% in men and 1.44% in women. The most frequent allo-antibodies were: anti-E (18.25%) and anti-D (16.06%) from a total of 137 allo-antibodies detected. The median time for detection of allo-antibodies was 20.88 days. The risk of alloimmunisation detected was high considering the average number of units transfused. The age of recipients and the longer life expectancy increase the probability of further transfusion requirements in this group. Our findings point out the necessity of modifications in the current medical transfusion support indication, including in patients with acute disorders in order to prevent alloimmunisation.

Resumen: Pt En | Texto: Pt En | PDF: Pt | PDF: En

Hematogônias são precursores normais de linhagem B que apresentam características morfológicas e, algumas vezes, imunológicas similares aos linfoblastos das leucemias linfóides agudas (LLA). O objetivo desse trabalho é realizar análise comparativa por citometria de fluxo, utilizando três cores, entre sub-populações de hematogônias e blastos da LLA-B, em crianças. O Grupo 1 constou de amostras de medulas ósseas, não neoplásicas, que apresentaram hematogônias identificadas pela microscopia óptica e o Grupo 2 de casos novos de LLA-B. O painel de anticorpos monoclonais utilizado era direcionado para: CD19, CD10, CD45, CD34, IgM, TdT e CD22. A análise das hematogônias, utilizando como parâmetro a intensidade de fluorescência de CD10 X CD45, mostrou três sub-populações representando células imaturas, intermediárias e maduras. A expressão dos marcadores CD34, IgM, TdT e CD22 reforçou esses achados. Os blastos leucêmicos se apresentaram formando uma única população, com expressão de positividade apenas para antígenos de imaturidade. Considerando não só a presença ou ausência de um determinado antígeno, mas sim a sua intensidade de expressão, verificamos que hematogônias e blastos apresentam perfis imunofenotípicos diferentes.

Hematogones are normal B-lineage cell precursors with morphologic and sometimes immunophenotypic, similarities to neoplastic lymphoblasts. The aim of this work is to compare using flow cytometry sub-populations of B-lineage cells: normal bone marrow precursors (hematogones) and lymphoblasts. Normal bone marrow from patients with hematogones observed by optical microscopy and new cases of acute lymphoblastic leukemia of B-cell precursors were included in the study. Antibodies directed against CD19, CD10, CD45, CD34, IgM and CD22 were used. Analysis of hematogones, using CD10 x CD45 fluorescence intensity as a parameter, showed three sub-populations: immature, intermediary and mature marker expressions. CD34, IgM, TdT and CD22 marker expressions reinforced these results. The leukemic blasts cells formed a single population with positive expression for only immature antigens. In conclusion, hematogones and blast cells demonstrated different immunophenotypic profiles. Hematogones exhibit a broad spectrum of immature, intermediary and mature cells in one sample and blast cells have essentially immature features.
