ABSTRACT The aim of this work was to evaluate the efficiency of native and exotic isolates of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) in promoting the growth of micropropagated seedlings of Pseudobombax simplicifolium S. Robyns during the acclimatization phase. The experiment was conducted in the greenhouse in an entirely randomized design with three inoculation treatments; Entrophospora etunicata (autochthonous), Acaulospora longula (exotic) and a non-inoculated control group. Seedlings were acclimated in soil and vermiculite (2:1 v/v) in 10 repetitions for each treatment totaling 30 experimental plots. At the end of the experiment, mycorrhized P. simplicifolium seedlings presented better development than those not inoculated. Although the inoculum with native AMF of E. etunicata was more efficient in colonizing the plants, the increments in leaf area, fresh and dry biomass were similar to those provided by the exotic AMF species (A. longula). It is concluded that during the acclimatization phase, P. simplicifolium seedlings present great vegetative development when mycorrhized, regardless of the origin of the fungal isolates tested in this study.

RESUMO O objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar a eficiência de isolados nativos e exóticos de fungos micorrízicos arbusculares (FMA) na promoção do crescimento de plântulas micropropagadas de Pseudobombax simplicifolium S. Robyns durante a fase de aclimatização. O experimento foi realizado em casa de vegetação em delineamento inteiramente casualizado em três tratamentos de inoculação; Entrophospora etunicata (autóctone), Acaulospora longula (exótico) e um grupo testemunha não inoculado. As plântulas foram aclimatizadas em solo e vermiculita (2:1 v/v) em 10 repetições para cada tratamento totalizando 30 parcelas experimentais. Ao final do experimento, mudas de P. simplicifolium micorrizadas apresentaram melhor desenvolvimento comparado às não inoculadas. Apesar do inóculo com FMA nativo de E. etunicata ter sido mais eficiente em colonizar as plantas, os incrementos na área foliar, biomassa fresca e seca foram similares aos proporcionados pela espécie exótica de FMA (A. longula). Conclui-se que durante a fase de aclimatização, mudas de P. simplicifolium têm o desenvolvimento vegetativo beneficiado pela micorrização, independente da origem dos isolados fúngicos testados nesse estudo.

Abstract Introduction: We investigated the clinical course and outcomes of patients submitted to cardiovascular surgery in Brazil and who had developed symptoms/signs of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) in the perioperative period. Methods: A retrospective multicenter study including 104 patients who were allocated in three groups according to time of positive real time reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) for the SARS-CoV-2 (severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2): group 1, patients who underwent cardiac surgery > 10 days after positive RT-PCR; group 2, patients with a positive RT-PCR within 10 days before or after surgery; group 3, patients who presented positive RT-PCR > 10 days after surgery. The primary outcome was mortality and secondary outcomes were postoperative complications, intensive care unit (ICU) length of stay, and postoperative days of hospitalization. Results: The three groups were similar with respect to age, the European System of Cardiac Operative Risk Evaluation score, and comorbidities, except hypertension. Postoperative complications and death were significantly higher in groups 2 and 3 than in group 1, and no significant difference between groups 2 and 3 was seen. Group 2 showed a high prevalence of surgery performed as an urgent procedure. Although no significant differences were observed in ICU length of stay, total postoperative hospitalization time was significantly higher in group 3 than in groups 1 and 2. Conclusion: COVID-19 affecting the postoperative period of patients who underwent cardiovascular surgery is associated with a higher rate of morbidity and mortality. Delaying procedures in RT-PCR-positive patients may help reduce risks of perioperative complications and death.

Resumo Introdução A vigilância em saúde é um modelo de atenção à saúde que articula e integra ações em saúde pública. Para tal, é fundamental conhecer os processos de dinâmica populacional que determinam o regime demográfico. Objetivo Descrever a dinâmica populacional nos últimos 15 anos e analisar projeções para os próximos 15 anos. Método Trata-se de estudo ecológico que analisou e projetou dados do Brasil e grandes regiões para o período de 2000 a 2030. Estimaram-se indicadores de estrutura etária, longevidade e padrão e nível de mortalidade, natalidade e fecundidade para o período. Resultados Observa-se no Brasil como um todo que a mortalidade e a fecundidade seguem em declínio, com diferenciais importantes entre as regiões brasileiras. Destacam-se a diferença no ritmo de envelhecimento populacional, a mudança no padrão de fecundidade e a tendência para a mortalidade no período. Ainda, evidencia-se, por meio das projeções, que a curto prazo não se vê redução dessas desigualdades regionais. Conclusão Discutiu-se que a vigilância em saúde precisa integrar as complexas dimensões do processo saúde-doença relacionadas a essas mudanças, construindo políticas públicas intersetoriais que entendam os determinantes sociais da saúde como conformadores do território, no contexto das transições demográfica e epidemiológica.

Abstract Background Health surveillance is a health care model that combines public health actions. To this end, it is fundamental to know the population dynamics processes that determine the demographic regime. Objective To describe the population dynamics in the past 15 years and analyze their projections for the next 15 years. Method This is an ecological study that analyzed and projected data from Brazil as a whole and its regions between 2000 and 2030. Indicators of age structure, longevity, and standard and level of mortality, birth and fertility were estimated for this period. Results In Brazil as a whole, mortality and fertility will continue to decline, with important differences between Brazilian regions. Difference in the rhythm of population aging, change in the pattern of fertility, and trend for mortality in the period are highlighted. The projections also evidence that there will be no reduction in these regional inequalities in the short term. Conclusion It is discussed that health surveillance needs to combine the complex dimensions of the health-disease process related to these changes, building intersectoral public policies that incorporate social determinants of health as territorial conformers in the context of demographic and epidemiological transitions.

Resumo Fundamento A síndrome de takotsubo (takotsubo) é uma forma de cardiomiopatia adquirida. Dados nacionais sobre essa condição são escassos. O Registro REMUTA é o primeiro a incluir dados multicêntricos dessa condição no nosso país. Objetivo Descrever as características clínicas, prognóstico, tratamento intra-hospitalar e mortalidade hospitalar e em 1 ano de seguimento. Métodos Estudo observacional, retrospectivo, tipo registro. Incluídos pacientes internados com diagnóstico de takotsubo ou que desenvolveram esta condição durante internação por outra causa. Os desfechos avaliados incluíram fator desencadeador, análise dos exames, uso de medicações, complicações e óbito intra-hospitalar e em 1 ano de seguimento. O nível de significância adotado foi de 5%. Resultados Foram incluídos 169 pacientes, em 12 centros no Estado do Rio de Janeiro. A idade média foi de 70,9 ± 14,1 anos e 90,5% eram do sexo feminino; 63% dos casos foram de takotsubo primário e 37% secundário. Troponina I foi positiva em 92,5% dos pacientes e a mediana de BNP foi de 395 (176,5; 1725). Supradesnivelamento do segmento ST esteve presente em 28% dos pacientes. A fração de ejeção do ventrículo esquerdo teve mediana de 40 (35; 48)%. Observamos taxa de 25,7% de ventilação mecânica invasiva e 17,4% de choque. Suporte circulatório mecânico foi utilizado em 7,7%. A mortalidade intra-hospitalar foi de 10,6% e a mortalidade ao final de 1 ano foi de 16,5%. Takotsubo secundário e choque cardiogênico foram preditores independentes de mortalidade. Conclusão Os resultados do REMUTA mostram que takotsubo não se trata de patologia benigna como se pensava, especialmente no grupo de takotsubo secundário que acarreta elevada taxa de complicações e de mortalidade.

Abstract Background Takotsubo syndrome (TTS) is an acquired form of cardiomyopathy. National Brazilian data on this condition are scarce. The Takotsubo Multicenter Registry (REMUTA) is the first to include multicenter data on this condition in Brazil. Objective To describe the clinical characteristics, prognosis, in-hospital treatment, in-hospital mortality, and mortality during 1 year of follow-up. Methods This is an observational, retrospective registry study including patients admitted to the hospital with diagnosis of TTS and patients admitted for other reasons who developed this condition. Evaluated outcomes included triggering factor, analysis of exams, use of medications, complications, in-hospital mortality, and mortality during 1 year of follow-up. A significance level of 5% was adopted. Results The registry included 169 patients from 12 centers in the state of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Mean age was 70.9 ± 14.1 years, and 90.5% of patients were female; 63% of cases were primary TTS, and 37% were secondary. Troponin I was positive in 92.5% of patients, and median BNP was 395 (176.5; 1725). ST-segment elevation was present in 28% of patients. Median left ventricular ejection fraction was 40 (35; 48)%. We observed invasive mechanical ventilation in 25.7% of cases and shock in 17.4%. Mechanical circulatory support was used in 7.7%. In-hospital mortality was 10.6%, and mortality at 1 year of follow-up was 16.5%. Secondary TTS and cardiogenic shock were independent predictors of mortality. Conclusion The results of the REMUTA show that TTS is not a benign pathology, as was once thought, especially regarding the secondary TTS group, which has a high rate of complications and mortality.

Abstract The objective of this study was to assess the efficiency of a mixed arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) inoculum versus a single isolate to promote the seedling development of native Caatinga species: baraúna (Schinopsis brasiliensis Engl.) and juazeiro (Zizyphus joazeiro Mart.). The experiment was conducted in a greenhouse, presenting a completely randomized design with four treatments (Control - not inoculated, inoculated with Claroideoglomus etunicatum, Acaulospora longula or a mix of C. etunicatum and A. longula) and seven replicates. The AMF inoculation promoted an increase in all growth variables of the two plant species, with increments above 100% in all inoculation treatments, and a significant reduction in the transplanting time of the seedlings to the field. We concluded that the AMF use under study in the mixed form is as beneficial as in the isolated form for Z. joazeiro and S. brasiliensis seedling production.

RESUMO A aniridia é uma doença ocular congênita com grau variável de hipoplasia ou ausência do tecido da íris. É causada pela perda de função do gene PAX6 e pode ser uma anormalidade ocular isolada ou parte de uma síndrome. WAGRO refere-se a uma condição genética rara que leva ao tumor de Wilms, aniridia, anomalias geniturinárias, déficit intelectual e obesidade e é causada por uma deleção do braço curto do cromossomo 11 (11p), onde o gene PAX6 está localizado. Aqui, nós relatamos um menino de 8 anos de idade com aniridia, catarata polar e subluxação do cristalino, além de retardo neuropsicomotor e de fala. A avaliação cariotípica revelou uma deleção intersticial envolvendo a região 11p13-p14, confirmando o diagnóstico da síndrome WAGRO. Em casos de aniridia, um diagnóstico de síndrome de WAGRO deve ser considerado.

ABSTRACT Aniridia is a congenital eye disorder with a variable degree of hypoplasia or absence of iris tissue. It is caused by loss of function of the PAX6 gene and may be an isolated ocular abnormality or part of a syndrome. WAGRO refers to a rare genetic condition leading to Wilms tumor, aniridia, genitourinary anomalies, mental retardation, and obesity and is caused by a deletion of the short arm of chromosome 11 (11p), where the PAX6 gene is located. Here, we report on an 8-year-old boy with aniridia, polar cataract, and lens subluxation along with neuropsychomotor and speech delays. Karyotype evaluation showed an interstitial deletion including region 11p13-p14, confirming the diagnosis of WAGRO syndrome. In cases of aniridia, a diagnosis of WAGRO syndrome should be considered.

Resumo Objetivo: descrever os desafios da implantação do sistema de vigilância e prevenção de chikungunya no Brasil. Métodos: estudo descritivo dos casos suspeitos da doença notificados no Sistema de Informação de Agravos de Notificação (Sinan) entre 2014 e 2016. Resultados: no período estudado, foram notificados mais de 100 mil casos prováveis de chikungunya no país, com maior concentração nos estados do Nordeste (83,3% entre 2014 e 2015; 91,0% em 2016); o Sinan apresentou excelente oportunidade de encerramento dos casos entre 2014 e 2015 (85%) e alta completitude das variáveis obrigatórias. Conclusão: com a introdução de chikungunya no Brasil em 2014, houve um preparo prévio em termos de Saúde Pública para minimizar seus efeitos na sociedade; a implantação do sistema de vigilância ampliou a coleta de informações da doença, embora muitos desafios mostrem-se evidentes na prática, haja vista a incidência crescente de casos, demandando maior capacidade operante desse setor.

Abstract Objective: to describe the challenges in implementing the chikungunya surveillance and prevention system in Brazil. Methods: this was a descriptive study of suspected cases of the disease based on records held on the Notifiable Diseases Information System (Sinan) for the period 2014-2016. Results: more than 100,000 probable chikungunya cases were notified in Brazil in this period, with the largest concentration in the Northeast states (83.3% between 2014 and 2015; 91.0% in 2016); Sinan provided an excellent opportunity for closing records of cases occurring between 2014 and 2015 (85%) and high completeness of obligatory variables. Conclusion: given the imminence of the introduction of chikungunya in Brazil in 2014, advance public health preparation took place in order to minimize its effects on society; implementation of the surveillance system improved collection of information regarding the disease, however many challenges can be seen in practice, in view of increasing case incidence. This requires greater handling capacity in this sector.

Resumen Objetivo: describir los desafíos de la implantación del sistema de vigilancia y prevención de chikungunya en Brasil. Métodos: estudio descriptivo de los casos sospechosos notificados en el Sistema de Notificación de Enfermedades Obligatorias (Sinan) entre 2014 y 2016. Resultados: en el período estudiado se notificaron más de 100 mil casos probables de chikungunya con mayor concentración en los estados del Nordeste (83,3% entre 2014 y 2015 y el 91,0% en 2016); el Sinan presentó una excelente oportunidad de cierre de los casos entre 2014 y 2015 (85%) y alta completitud de las variables obligatorias. Conclusión: con la introducción de chikungunya en Brasil hubo una preparación previa para minimizar sus efectos en la sociedad; la implantación del sistema de vigilancia ha ampliado la recolección de información sobre la enfermedad, sin embargo, muchos desafíos son evidenciados en la práctica, pues la incidencia de casos es creciente, necesitando de mayor capacidad operante de ese sector.

Abstract Purpose To investigate the roles of age, testicular rotation and time in the surgical outcome of intravaginal testicular torsion (iTT). Patients and Methods We retrieved the records of all iTT patients treated in our unit from January 2012 to January 2014. Explanatory variables were: age (years); presentation delay (PrD, time between symptoms and hospitalization); surgical delay (SurgD, time between hospitalization and surgery) and testicular rotation (rotation), with surgical outcome (orchidopexy, orchidectomy) as response variable. Differences in PrD, SurgD, age and rotation by surgical outcome were evaluated non-parametrically. Step-down logistic regression included age, PrD, SurgD and rotation as predictors. Statistical significance and confidence intervals (CI) were set at p<0.05 and 0.95. Odds ratios (OR) were computed from the model's coefficients. Results Complete variable information was available for 117 patients, and most (61, 52.1%) underwent orchidectomy. Ages were similar between orchidectomy and orchidopexy patients (median 15.8 vs. 16.0 years, p=0.78). In contrast, PrD (85.0 vs. 8.4 hours, p<0.001), SurgD (3.0 vs. 16.0 hours, p<0.001) were different between orchidectomy and orchidopexy patients. SurgD was similar with PrD<24 hours (4.0 vs. 2.8, p=0.1). Orchidectomy patients had greater rotation (3.0π vs. 2.0π radians, p<0.001). Logistic regression revealed that PrD (OR 0.94; 0.92–0.97; p<0.001) and rotation (OR 0.43; 0.27–0.70; p<0.001) were inversely associated with orchidopexy. Conclusion Testicular rotation exerts a multiplicative effect on PrD, so time should not be regarded as the sole predictor of surgical outcome in iTT.

Resumo A dengue é um dos principais desafios de saúde pública no Brasil e as atividades de prevenção e controle dessa patologia vêm sendo baseadas na estratégia de gestão integrada proposta em políticas de saúde, nas quais os atores centrais são o Agente de Combate à Endemias (ACE) e o Agente Comunitário de Saúde (ACS). O estudo objetivou analisar os consensos produzidos pelos ACS e ACE sobre estas ações integradas com a implantação da Portaria de Incorporação dos ACE nas equipes da Estratégia Saúde da Família (ESF). Trata-se de uma pesquisa qualitativa com a realização de grupo focal com profissionais de um município de grande porte e com endemia de dengue do Brasil. O encontro foi gravado e as falas transcritas por meio da Análise do Discurso do Sujeito Coletivo, com apoio do WebQDA. Os resultados apontam consenso em relação a: I) dificuldade no processo de integração do ACS e ACE para o controle da dengue; II) inclusão dos ACE na atenção primária na ESF; III) inexistencia de acompanhamento e avaliação das ações integradas. Conclui-se que é necessário sensibilizar os participantes, buscando mudanças de comportamento, oferecer um ambiente de suporte aos envolvidos com cursos de capacitação sobre dengue, acompanhar o processo de integração e avaliar periodicamente criando indicadores de qualidade e quantidade.

Abstract Dengue is one of Brazil’s most important public health challenges. Activities for its prevention and control have been based on the strategy of integrated management proposed in health policies, in which the central actors are the Endemic Disease Control Agent(ACE) and the Community Health Agent (ACS). This study analyzes consensus opinions produced by ACSs and ACEs on theactions for incorporating ACEs into the teams of the Family Health Strategy (ESF). It is a qualitative study from a large municipality in Brazil in which dengue is endemic, using a focus group of professionals that is subsequently analyzed using Collective Subject Discourse Analysis, supported by WebQDA. The results indicate consensus positions in relation to the following subjects: I) difficulty in the process of integration of ACSs and ACEs for control of dengue; II) inclusion of ACEs in the primary healthcare of the ESF; and III) absence of monitoring and assessment of the integrated actions. In conclusion, there are needs: to make participants more aware, seeking changes in behavior; to offer an environment of support to those involved with training courses about dengue; and to monitor the process of integration, and evaluate it periodically, creating indicators of quality and quantity.

Resumo Objetivo A vitamina D tem sido amplamente estudada como mediadora da resposta imune, tornando-se evidente a prevalência de hipovitaminose D em pacientes com doença de Crohn. Este trabalho objetiva avaliar os níveis séricos de vitamina D nos pacientes com portadores de doença de Crohn em uma região do sudeste do Brasil. Métodos Trata-se de estudo prospectivo, com análise estatística dos valores da vitamina D sérica dosados entre Abril de 2014 e Abril de 2015 em pacientes com doença de Crohn. Indivíduos com queixas anais leves, sem qualquer acometimento colorretal, compuseram o grupo controle. Resultados Foram avaliados 104 pacientes, cuja média de idade foi de 40,6 anos, sendo 56 (53,8%) mulheres e 48 (46,2%) homens. O nível sérico de vitamina D médio foi 21,6 ng/mL, com desvio-padrão de 13,85. O grupo controle foi composto por 66 indivíduos, cuja média de idade foi 48,9 anos, com 38 (57,6%) mulheres e 28 (42,4%) homens. Neste grupo o nível sérico médio de vitamina D foi 40,9 ng/mL. Foi demonstrada significância estatística com p < 0,0001. Conclusão Houve elevada prevalência de hipovitaminose D em pacientes com doença de Crohn, quando comparados ao grupo controle. Não foi evidenciada hipovitaminose D entre os pacientes deste último grupo.

Abstract Objective Vitamin D has been widely studied as a mediator of the immune response, becoming evident the prevalence of hypovitaminosis D in patients with Crohn's disease. This work aims at evaluating the serum levels of vitamin D in patients suffering from Crohn's disease in a southeast region of Brazil. Methods It is a prospective study, with statistical analysis of the values of serum vitamin D measured between April 2014 and April 2015 in patients with Crohn's disease. Individuals with mild anal complaints, without any colorectal involvement, comprised the control group. Results One hundred and four patients whose average age was 40.6 years were evaluated, being 56 (53.8%) female and 48 (46.2%) male. The average serum vitamin D level was 21.6 ng/mL, with standard deviation 13.85. The control group was comprised by 66 individuals, whose average age was 48.9 years. With 38 (57.6%) female and 28 (42.4%) male. In this group the average serum vitamin D level was 40.9 ng/mL. Statistical significance was demonstrated with p < 0.0001. Conclusion There was high prevalence of hypovitaminosis D in patients with Chron's disease, when compared to the control group. Hypovitaminosis D was not evidenced in patients in the latter group.

Abstract: En | Text: En | PDF: En

Gastric cancer (GC) is a multifactorial disease with a high mortality rate in Brazil and worldwide. This work aimed to evaluate single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) rs1695, in the Glutathione S-Transferase Pi (GSTP1) gene in GC samples by comparative analysis Specific PCR - ASP and Dideoxy Single Allele-Specific PCR - DSASP methods. The DSASP is the proposed new method for allelic discrimination. This work analyzed 60 GC samples, 26 diffuse and 34 intestinal types. The SNP rs1695 of the GSTP1 gene was significantly associated with GC analyzed by DSASP method (χ2 = 9.7, P < 0.05). A comparative analysis of the data obtained from both methods did not differ significantly (χ2 = 0.08, P > 0.05). These results suggest that the SNP rs1695 of the GSTP1 gene was a risk factor associated with gastric carcinogens is and the DSASP method was a new successfully low-cost strategy to study allelic discrimination.
