Abstract Background There is a lack of evidence of cognitive involvement in chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (CIDP) and, the reports about the involvement of the brain and central nervous system (CNS) are few and controversial. The Five Digit Test (FDT) evaluates processing speed (PS) and executive functions orally. Objective To evaluate the performance on the FDT of CIDP patients with and without CNS (brain/cerebellum) alterations observed on brain Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) scans. Methods The Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS, to assess neuropsychiatry symptoms), the Rasch-built Overall Disability Scale (R-ODS; to assess disability), and the FDT (to assess cognition) were applied to 14 CIDP patients and 24 age-matched healthy control subjects. The patients were submitted to routine brain MRI and, according to the results, they were divided into two groups: those with abnormalities on the MRI (CIDPabnl) and those with normal parameters on the MRI (CIDPnl). The FDT data of five CIDPnl patients and nine CIDPabnl subjects were analyzed. Comparisons between the groups were performed for each task of the FDT. Results We found statistical differences for both groups of CIDP patients in terms of PS, for the patients spent more time performing the PS tasks than the controls. The PS measures were negatively associated with disability scores (reading: r = −0.47; p = 0.003; counting: r = −0.53; p = 0.001). Conclusions Our data suggested the presence of PS impairment in CIDP patients. Disability was associated with slow PS.

Resumo Antecedentes Faltam evidências de envolvimento cognitivo na polineuropatia inflamatória desmielinizante crônica (PIDC), e há poucos e controversos estudos que tratam do envolvimento cerebral e do sistema nervoso central (SNC). O Teste dos Cinco Dígitos (Five Digit Test, FDT, em inglês) avalia a velocidade de processamento (VP) e as funções executivas oralmente. Objetivo Avaliar o desempenho no FDT de pacientes com PIDC com e sem alterações no SNC (cérebro/cerebelo) de acordo com o exame de imagem cerebral por ressonância magnética (RM). Métodos Ao todo, 14 pacientes e 24 controles saudáveis pareados por idade responderam a Escala Hospitalar de Ansiedade e Depressão (que avalia sintomas neuropsiquiátricos), a Escala de Incapacidade Geral elaborada pelo método Rasch (que avalia a incapacidade) e o FDT (que avalia a cognição). Os pacientes foram submetidos a RM cerebral e, de acordo com os resultados, divididos em dois grupos: aqueles com anormalidades (PIDCabnl) e aqueles sem alterações (PIDCnl) na RM. Cinco pacientes PIDCnl e nove PIDCabnl tiveram os dados analisados. Comparações entre os grupos foram realizadas para cada parte do FDT. Resultados Os dois grupos de pacientes foram estatisticamente mais lentos nas tarefas de VP comparados ao grupo controle. As medidas de VP foram negativamente associadas às pontuações de incapacidade (leitura: r = −0,47; p = 0,003; contagem: r = −0,53; p = 0,001). Conclusões Os dados indicaram a presença de prejuízo na VP em pacientes com PIDC. A incapacidade foi associada à lentidão na VP.

Abstract Background Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a neurodegenerative disease that affects the upper and lower motor neurons. The correct diagnosis at the onset of the disease is sometimes very difficult, due to the symptoms being very similar to those of other neurological syndromes. Objective This study aimed to analyze the initial manifestations, the specialty of the first physician visited due the initial complaint, the misdiagnoses, as well as the unnecessary surgical interventions in a new ALS Brazilian population. Methods The medical records of 173 patients with typical ALS were reviewed. Results The present study demonstrated that other symptoms, besides weakness, were very frequent as initial presentation of ALS, and orthopedics was the medical specialty most sought by patients at the onset of symptoms. Our frequency of misdiagnoses was 69.7%, and in 7.1% of them, an unnecessary surgical intervention was performed. Conclusions Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis presents a very large pool of signs and symptoms; therefore, there is an urgent need of increasing the disease awareness to other specialties due to the high frequency of misdiagnoses observed in clinical practice.

Resumo Antecedentes A esclerose lateral amiotrófica (ELA) é uma doença neurodegenerativa que afeta os neurônios motores superior e inferior. O diagnóstico correto no início da doença é, às vezes, muito difícil, pois os sintomas de início são muito semelhantes aos de outras síndromes neurológicas. Objetivo Este estudo teve como objetivo analisar as manifestações iniciais, a especialidade do primeiro médico visitado devido à queixa inicial, os diagnósticos errôneos, bem como as intervenções cirúrgicas desnecessárias em uma nova população brasileira acometida por ELA. Métodos Os prontuários médicos de 173 pacientes com ELA típica foram revisados. Resultados O presente estudo demonstrou que outros sintomas, além da fraqueza, foram muito frequentes como apresentação inicial da ELA, sendo a ortopedia a especialidade médica mais procurada pelos pacientes no início dos sintomas. Nossa frequência de diagnósticos errôneos foi de 69,7%, e em 7,1% deles foi realizada intervenção cirúrgica desnecessária. Conclusões A ELA apresenta um conjunto amplo de sinais e sintomas; portanto, há necessidade urgente de uma melhor educação de outras especialidades devido à alta frequência de diagnósticos equivocados observada na prática clínica.

ABSTRACT Purpose: To analyze the association between obesity and urinary incontinence rate in men submitted to robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) in a high-volume cancer center. Materials and Methods: We reported 1.077 men who underwent RARP as the primary treatment for localized prostate cancer from 2013 to 2017. Patients were classified as non-obese (normal BMI or overweight) or obese men (BMI ≥30kg/m2). They were grouped according to the age, PSA level, D’Amico risk group, Gleason score, ASA classification, pathological stage, prostate volume, salvage/adjuvant radiotherapy, perioperative complications, and follow-up time. Urinary continence was defined as the use of no pads. For the analysis of long-term urinary continence recovery, we conducted a 1:1 propensity-score matching to control confounders. Results: Among the obese patients, mean BMI was 32.8kg/m2, ranging 30 - 45.7kg/m2. Only 2% was morbidly obese. Obese presented more comorbidities and larger prostates. Median follow-up time was 15 months for the obese. Complications classified as Clavien ≥3 were reported in 5.6% of the obese and in 4.4% of the non-obese men (p=0.423). Median time for continence recovery was 4 months in both groups. In this analysis, HR was 0.989 for urinary continence recovery in obese (95%CI=0.789 - 1.240; p=0.927). Conclusions: Obese can safely undergo RARP with similar continence outcomes comparing to the non-obese men when performed by surgeons with a standardized operative technique. Future studies should perform a subgroup analysis regarding the association of obesity with other comorbidities, intending to optimize patient counseling.

A doença de Huntington (DH) é uma doença neurodegenerativa caracterizada por coréia, alterações comportamentais e demência, causada por uma expansão patológica do trinucleotídeo CAG no gene HTT. Vários pacientes têm sido descritos com o fenótipo típico para a DH porém sem a mutação esperada. O objetivo deste estudo foi avaliar a ocorrência de doenças como doença de Huntington-símile 2 (DHS-2), ataxias espinocerebelares tipo 1, 2, 3 e 17, atrofia dentatorubral-palidoluisiana e coreo-acantocitose (CAc) entre 29 pacientes brasileiros com fenótipo doença de Huntington-símile. No grupo analisado, encontramos 3 pacientes com DHS-2 e 2 pacientes com CAc. O diagnóstico permaneceu obscuro em 79,3% dos pacientes. DHS-2 foi a principal causa do fenótipo DH-símile no grupo analisado, provavelmente devido a ancestralidade africana na população brasileira. Entretanto, a etiologia permaneceu indeterminada na maioria dos pacientes avaliados.

Huntington's disease (HD) is a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by chorea, behavioral disturbances and dementia, caused by a pathological expansion of the CAG trinucleotide in the HTT gene. Several patients have been recognized with the typical HD phenotype without the expected mutation. The objective of this study was to assess the occurrence of diseases such as Huntington's disease-like 2 (HDL2), spinocerebellar ataxia (SCA) 1, SCA2, SCA3, SCA7, dentatorubral-pallidoluysian atrophy (DRPLA) and chorea-acanthocytosis (ChAc) among 29 Brazilian patients with a HD-like phenotype. In the group analyzed, we found 3 patients with HDL2 and 2 patients with ChAc. The diagnosis was not reached in 79.3% of the patients. HDL2 was the main cause of the HD-like phenotype in the group analyzed, and is attributable to the African ancestry of this population. However, the etiology of the disease remains undetermined in the majority of the HD negative patients with HD-like phenotype.

Abstract: En | Text: En | PDF: En

Butyrylcholinesterase (BChE) is a plasma enzyme that catalyzes the hydrolysis of choline esters, including the muscle-relaxant succinylcholine and mivacurium. Patients who present sustained neuromuscular blockade after using succinylcholine usually carry BChE variants with reduced enzyme activity or an acquired BChE deficiency. We report here the molecular basis of the BCHE gene underlying the slow catabolism of succinylcholine in a patient who underwent endoscopic nasal surgery. We measured the enzyme activity of BChE and extracted genomic DNA in order to study the promoter region and all exons of the BCHE gene of the patient, her parents and siblings. PCR products were sequenced and compared with reference sequences from GenBank. We detected that the patient and one of her brothers have two homozygous mutations: nt1615 GCA > ACA (Ala539Thr), responsible for the K variant, and nt209 GAT > GGT (Asp70Gly), which produces the atypical variant A. Her parents and two of her brothers were found to be heterozygous for the AK allele, and another brother is homozygous for the normal allele. Sequence analysis of exon 1 including 5'UTR showed that the proband and her brother are homozygous for -116GG. The AK/AK genotype is considered the most frequent in hereditary hypocholinesterasemia (44%). This work demonstrates the importance of defining the phenotype and genotype of the BCHE gene in patients who are subjected to neuromuscular block by succinylcholine, because of the risk of prolonged neuromuscular paralysis.

Abstract: En | Text: En | PDF: En

PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the relative importance of the different static stabilizers of the posterolateral corner of the knee in cadavers. METHODS: Tests were performed with the application of a varus and external rotation force to the knee in extension at 30 and 60 degrees of flexion using 10 cadaver knees. The forces were applied initially to an intact knee and then repeated after a selective sectioning of the ligaments into the following: section of the lateral collateral ligament; section of the lateral collateral ligament and the popliteofibular complex; and section of the lateral collateral ligament, the popliteofibular complex and the posterolateral capsule. The parameters studied were the angular deformity and stiffness when the knees were submitted to a 15 Newton-meter varus torque and a 6 Newton-meter external tibial torque. Statistical analysis was performed using the ANOVA (Analysis of Variance) and Tukey's tests. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Our findings showed that the lateral collateral ligament was important in varus stability at 0, 30 and 60 degrees. The popliteofibular complex was the most important structure for external rotation stability at all angles of flexion and was also important for varus stability at 30 and 60 degrees. The posterolateral capsule was important for varus stability at 0 and 30 degrees and for external rotation stability in extension. Level of evidence: Level IV (cadaver study).

A corticoterapia tem sido testada como protetor neuronal no trauma. Os estudos multicêntricos avaliando a metilprednisolona (MP) na recuperação neurológica após trauma revelaram-se promissores (NASCIS). Porém, várias, críticas às suas metodologias foram publicadas. OBJETIVO: Revisar a literatura relacionada ao uso da metilprednisolona comparada com placebo. MÉTODOS: A análise feita somou a média da melhora obtida nos grupos de pacientes que usaram MP e placebo (PL) à média dos escores dos grupos na linha de base, antes de tratamento, obtendo-se o resultado neurológico final de ambos os grupos. RESULTADOS: O escore motor do grupo MP foi apenas 2,5 pontos maior que o PL em um ano de seguimento. O escore motor em indivíduos intactos é de 70 pontos. A melhora nos escores sensitivos foi igualmente discreta (1,1 e 1,7 pontos para sensibilidade a picadas e tato respectivamente). A taxa de complicações observada em grupo de pacientes em torno de 60 anos foi alta com o uso de MP. CONCLUSÃO: As diferenças na magnitude do benefício clínico obtido (não confirmado por outros estudos) com o uso da MP e com o PL não são significativas em confronto com o potencial de complicações do uso da medicação.

Steroid therapy has been tested as a protector in spinal cord injury. Multicenter studies evaluating the methylprednisolone (MP) in post traumatic neurological recovery have shown promising results according to NASCIS. A large number of critical studies related to the NASCIS results have been published. OBJECTIVE: To review literature related to use of methylprednisolone compared with placebo. METHODS: This analysis added the average improvement achieved in groups of patients who used MP and placebo (PL) to the average scores of groups at baseline, before treatment, resulting in the final neurological outcome for both groups. RESULTS: The motor score of the MP group was only 2.5 points higher than the PL in a one year follow-up. In neurologically intact patients, the total score is 70 points. Improvement in sensitive scores was also discrete (1.1 and 1.7 points for the pinprick and light touch respectively). A high rate of complications was observed in a group of patients about 60 years old who used MP. CONCLUSION: Differences in the clinical magnitude of benefit obtained (not confirmed by other studies) with the use of MP or PL are not significant, in comparison with the potential for complications when using methylprednisolone.

Abstract: En | Text: En | PDF: En

OBJECTIVE: Studies have demonstrated that methylxanthines, such as caffeine, are A1 and A2 adenosine receptor antagonists found in the brain, heart, lungs, peripheral vessels, and platelets. Considering the high consumption of products with caffeine in their composition, in Brazil and throughout the rest of the world, the authors proposed to observe the effects of this substance on blood pressure and platelet aggregation. METHODS: Thirteen young adults, ranging from 21 to 27 years of age, participated in this study. Each individual took 750mg/day of caffeine (250mg tid), over a period of seven days. The effects on blood pressure were analyzed through the pressor test with handgrip, and platelet aggregation was analyzed using adenosine diphosphate, collagen, and adrenaline. RESULTS: Diastolic pressure showed a significant increase 24 hours after the first intake (p<0.05). This effect, however, disappeared in the subsequent days. The platelet aggregation tests did not reveal statistically significant alterations, at any time during the study. CONCLUSION: The data suggest that caffeine increases diastolic blood pressure at the beginning of caffeine intake. This hypertensive effect disappears with chronic use. The absence of alterations in platelet aggregation indicates the need for larger randomized studies.

Abstract: Pt En | Text: Pt En | PDF: Pt | PDF: En

De fevereiro de 1987 a junho de 1995, 92 pacientes com câncer de próstata avançado foram submetidos a bloqueio androgénico máximo (subcapsular orquiectomia e antiandrógeno), independente dos sintomas clínicos apresentados na sua admissão. A idade dos pacientes variou de 44 a 89 anos, com mediana de 70 anos de idade. No 6o, 36o e 60o meses, a sobrevida global foi de 80%, 38% e 20%, respectivamente. O PSA pré-operatório variou de 2 a 4017 ng/ml, com mediana de 98 ng/ml e 98% dos pacientes tinham PSA maior ou igual a 10 ng/ml. O primeiro PSA pós-operatório variou de 1 a 3840 ng/ml, com mediana de 20 ng/ml. Neste estudo retrospectivo, 97% e 88,2% dos pacientes tinham PSA pré-operatório maior que 4 e 20 ng/ml, respectivamente. Houve somente uma tendência de melhor sobrevida nos pacientes com PSA inicial de 2 a 99 ng/ml (p=0,06745) que com PSA maior que 100 ng/ml. Há uma tendência de diminuição do PSA até o sexto mês depois do início do tratamento. A sobrevida dos pacientes em 36 meses após o bloqueio androgênico máximo, de acordo com o primeiro nível do PSA de 1 a 4, 5 a 49 e maior que 49 ng/ml foi de 72%, 48% e 8%, respectivamente (p=0.00004). No último exame, 34 (37%) dos pacientes foram considerados estabilizados e 58 (63%) com progressão da doença.

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the survival rate of patients with advanced prostate cancer in a univariate form, according to the preoperative and first postoperative determination of PSA levels. MATERIALS AND METHODS: From February 1987 to June 1995, 92 patients were submitted to maximum blockage androgen (subcapsular and antiandrogen orchiectomy), independent of clinical symptons shown upon admission to the Cancer Hospital. The antiandrogens (ciproterone acetate and flutamide) were administered until the patient present progression of the disease. RESULTS: The age of patients varied from 44 to 89, with a median of 70 years old. In the 6th, 36th and 60th months the global survival rate was 80%, 38% and 20%, respectively. The preoperative PSA ranged from 2 to 4017 ng/ml, with a median of 98 ng/ml (98% had PSA greater than or equal to 10 ng/ml). The first postoperative PSA ranged from 1 to 3840 ng/ml, with a median of 20 ng/ml. There was a tendency towards a better survival rate only in patients with initial PSA from 2 to 99 ng/ml (p=0.06745). The survival rate of patients at 36 months after the initial total blockage androgen, with first PSA level from 1 to 4, 5 to 49 and over 49 ng/ml was 72%, 48% and 8%, respectively (p=0.00004). In the final examination, 34 (37%) patients were considered stable and 58 (63%) had disease progression. CONCLUSION: The PSA determination performed on the 30th postoperative day is important in the evaluation of advanced prostate cancer prognosis.
