RESUMO

ABSTRACT: Post-thrombotic syndrome (PTS) is a late complication that does not have a cure yet, with a prevalence estimated between 20 to 75%, associated with previous deep vein thrombosis event. Although the Villalta score (VS) is the gold-standard clinical tool for diagnostic and prognostic evaluation of PTS, there are currently no VS intra-rater agreement established and no validation studies for VS' application into Brazilian Portuguese. We sought to translate and validate VS reliability systematically; and, secondarily, to compare the ultrasound findings with the severity of PTS.We systematically translated the original VS into Brazilian Portuguese (BP). Fifty participants who underwent two outpatient visits were evaluated using the translated VS. We assessed its intra-rater and inter-rater agreement and compared BP VS versus CEAP clinical component (CEAP C), and the clinical PTS severity versus the duplex ultrasound (DUS) findings. The study and its report followed the Guidelines for Reporting Reliability and Agreement Studies.The intra-rater evaluation of VS grades had a simple Kappa coefficient of 0.73, and the simple Kappa coefficient inter-rater for VS grades was 0.67. When VS was compared to CEAP C, it established a remarkably high correlation over 0.9. There was difference among VS values compared to DUS initial deep vein thrombosis territory, with femoropopliteal showing higher values than distal veins. Higher VS values were correlated to DUS venous recanalization and reflux.There was a substantial inter-rater and intra-rater agreement when the BP VS was applied; and when compared to CEAP C, VS showed a high correlation. When VS grading was compared to DUS characteristics, there were significant statistical and clinical correlation, with presence of reflux and recanalization showing higher VS values. This external VS validation also changes the clinical practice allowing the VS use in a different population and establishes the VS intra-rater agreement.

RESUMO

Resumen Introducción: La injuria renal aguda es un trastorno complejo, multicausal, asociado con alta mortalidad y ocasional dependencia de diálisis crónica. Se desconoce la evolución de los pacientes que requieren terapia de reemplazo renal por injuria renal aguda en Argentina. Material y métodos: Estudio prospectivo, observacional, longitudinal y multicéntrico, en mayores de 14 años, ingresados en hospitales públicos de la provincia de Santa Fe, con diagnóstico de injuria renal aguda y necesidad de terapia de reemplazo renal, durante dos años (2017 y 2018). Resultados: Total 255 pacientes. Frecuencia 164 ppm/año, 1.85/1000 internaciones por año, varones 70,98%, edad 46-66 años, comorbilidades en 71,37%, internación en unidad de cuidados críticos 89.02%, compromiso extrarrenal 82.52%. Causas más frecuentes: hipotensión arterial 62.35%, infecciones 52.73%, nefrotóxicos 17.65%. Terapia de reemplazo renal: hemodiálisis intermitente 74.51%, diálisis lenta 11.76%, terapia continua 13.73%. Evolución: vivos a 30 días 116 (45.49%), dependencia de diálisis crónica 12 (10.34%). Mortalidad: 54.51% a 30 días, progresando al 65.88% a los 420 días. Sin diferencia significativa en mortalidad a 30 días según edad, sexo, terapia de reemplazo renal, comorbilidades ni creatininemia en primera diálisis. Hubo diferencia significativa (p <0.05) en mortalidad en injuria renal aguda aislada versus compromiso extrarrenal (RR: 1.55), Unidad de Cuidados Críticos versus Sala (RR: 3.31) e hipotensión arterial (RR: 1.79) como causa. Los pacientes con dependencia de diálisis crónica presentaron mayor mortalidad a 420 días que aquellos que recuperaron función renal (50% vs 22%, RR: 2.26). Conclusiones: Este es el primer estudio epidemiológico de injuria renal aguda, con seguimiento de la población que requirió terapia de reemplazo renal en Argentina. Está compuesto por pacientes jóvenes, graves y con alta proporción de compromiso de órganos extrarrenales. La mortalidad es elevada y se prolonga más allá del inicio de la terapia de reemplazo renal, la dependencia de diálisis crónica conlleva un peor pronóstico vital.


Abstract Introduction: Acute kidney injury is a complex, multicausal disorder associated with high mortality and chronic dialysis dependence. The evolution of patients who required renal replacement therapy due to acute kidney injury in Argentina is unknown. Methods: Prospective, observational, longitudinal, multicentric study in individuals over 14 years of age admitted to public hospitals (Province of Santa Fe) with a diagnosis of acute kidney injury and need for renal replacement therapy; study duration: two years (2017 and 2018). Results: Total 255 patients. Frequency 164 ppm/year, 1.85/1000 hospitalizations/year, males 70.98%, age 46.66 years, comorbidities present in 71.37%, hospitalization in critical care 89.02%, extra renal involvement 82.52%. Most frequent causes: arterial hypotension 62.35%, infections 52.73%, nephrotoxic 17.65%. Renal replacement therapy: intermittent hemodialysis 74.51%, sustained low-efficiency dialysis 11.76%, continuous: 13.73%. Evolution: alive at 30 days 116 (45.49%), chronic dialysis dependence 12 (10.34%). Mortality: at 30 days 54.51%, progressing to 65.88% at 420 days. No significant difference in mortality at 30 days according to age, sex, renal replacement therapy, comorbidities or creatinine in first dialysis. There was a significant difference (p <0.05) in mortality in isolated acute renal injury extra renal involvement (RR: 1.55), Critical Care Unit vs Ward (RR: 3.31) and arterial hypotension as cause (RR: 1.79). Patients with chronic dialysis dependence presented higher mortality than those who recovered renal function (50% vs 22%, RR: 2.26). Conclusions: This is the first epidemiological study with follow-up of the population that required renal replacement therapy in Argentina. It is composed of young, severe patients with a high proportion of extra renal organ involvement. Mortality is high and continues beyond the onset of renal replacement therapy, chronic dialysis dependence leads to a worse vital prognosis.

RESUMO

INTRODUCTION: Intensive care units focus primarily on life support and treatment of critically ill patients, but there are many survivors with complications, such as generalized muscle disorders, functional disability and reduced quality of life after hospital discharge, resulting from prolonged stays in these units. The current evidence suggests that early mobilization-based rehabilitation (exercise initiated immediately after the patient's significant physiological changes have stabilized) in critically ill adults can alleviate these complications from immobility and critical illness. However, there are a lack of practice guidelines, conflicting perceptions about safety, and knowledge gaps about benefits in the critically ill paediatric population. Therefore, we aim to assess the effects of early mobilization for children in intensive therapy. METHODS AND ANALYSIS: Systematic searches will be carried out in Medical Literature Analysis and Retrieval System Online, Excerpta Medica database, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, Latin American and Caribbean Centre on Health Sciences Information, Cumulative Index to Nursing & Allied Health Literature and physiotherapy evidence database databases at a minimum without date or language restrictions for relevant individual parallel, cross-over and cluster randomized controlled trials. In addition, a search will also be carried out in the World Health Organization International Clinical Trials Registry Platform, and in the clinical trial registries of ClinicalTrials.gov, looking for any on-going randomised controlled trials that compare early mobilization with any other type of intervention. Two review authors will independently perform data extraction and quality assessments of data from included studies, and any disagreements will be resolved by discussion or by arbitration. The primary outcomes will be mortality and adverse events. Secondary outcomes will include duration of critical care (days), duration of mechanical ventilation support, muscle strength, pain and neuropsychomotor development. The Cochrane handbook will be used for guidance. If the results are not appropriate for a meta-analysis in RevMan 5 software (e.g., if the data have considerable heterogeneity and are drawn from different comparisons), a descriptive analysis will be performed. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION: This protocol was prospectively registered at Open Science Framework and approved by the Ethics and Research Committee of the Federal University of Sao Paulo (8543210519). We intend to update the public registry used in this review, report any important protocol amendments and publish the results in a widely accessible journal. REGISTRATION:: osf.io/ebju9.

RESUMO

INTRODUCTION: Physical activity (PA) has a great influence on bone mineral density (BMD) and bone mineral content (BMC), however longitudinal studies that seek to relate bone mass to physical activity are scarce and have a small sample size. The aim of this study was to evaluate and compare the effect of 7 months of military physical training (MPT), impact sports (IS), and swimming in the bone mass of young military adults. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A prospective study was conducted with 213 military school students (male and aged 19.2 ± 1.2 years) divided into three groups: MPT (n = 144), IS (n = 56), and Swimming (n = 13). Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry was used to determine body composition (percentage of fat, fat mass, and fat-free mass) and bone mass (BMD, BMD Z-Score, total BMC, arm BMC, leg BMC, and trunk BMC), at the beginning of the military service and after 7 months of training. RESULTS: It was observed a significant increase in BMD, BMD Z-Score, total BMC and BMC of all segments analyzed for all groups (p < 0.01). There was a significantly greater variation in BMD of the IS group in relation to the MPT group (p < 0.01), and in the arm BMC of the MPT group in relation to the IS group (p < 0.05). CONCLUSION: After 7 months of training, there were significant increases in BMC and BMD of all the groups evaluated. The bone response was associated with the muscular group used in the physical exercise and the IS group showed greater gain in BMD.

RESUMO

A implantação e a ampliação dos sistemas de esgotamento sanitário devem contemplar não só aspectos políticos, técnicos e econômicos, mas também sociais, ambientais e de sustentabilidade. Para subsidiar a tomada de decisão com base neste paradigma, e auxiliar na definição das prioridades de intervenções, propõe-se aqui um novo indicador de sustentabilidade, que aqui foi denominado de Índice de Diluição de Esgoto - IDE. Este índice correlaciona a vazão de esgoto sanitário não tratado com a vazão dos corpos d'água e permite efetuar a avaliar o sistema de esgotamento sob a ótica da capacidade suporte do ambiente. A revisão bibliográfica abordou quatro temas: os esgotos sanitários, os recursos hídricos superficiais, a poluição dos corpos d'água por esgoto sanitário e os indicadores de sustentabilidade. Com base nos parâmetros de qualidade padrões dos esgotos sanitários e dos corpos d'água limpos, bem como na legislação ambiental, foram identificadas quatro faixas de risco associadas aos valores do IDE: acima de 0,1% há o risco à saúde e à eutrofização de represas, acima de 5% à comunidade aquática, acima de 10% à harmonia paisagística e acima de 15% à harmonia odorífera. Com o IDE desenvolvido, foi estudado o caso da Região Metropolitana de São Paulo - RMSP: o valor do índice foi calculado para as suas diversas sub-bacias de esgotamento. As bacias com os maiores valores de IDE situam-se em um anel que circunda a RMSP, enquanto que aquelas com os menores valores, nas porções interna e externa deste anel. Poucas sub-bacias apresentaram valores inferior a 0,1% e muitas apresentaram valores acima de 15%, que extrapola os 200% em alguns casos. O estudo da RMSP foi realizado à luz de variáveis territoriais e socioeconômicas, o que propiciou uma discussão do diagnóstico e do planejamento do sistema de esgotamento sob a ótica da sustentabilidade e dos riscos associados


The implementation and expansion of sewage systems should include not only political, technical and economic aspects, but also social, environmental and sustainability aspects. In order to support decision-making based on this paradigm and to endorse the interventions's priorities selection, a new sustainability indicator is proposed here, which has been called Sewage Dilution Index - SDI. This index correlates untreated sanitary sewage flow with the water bodies flow and allows the evaluation of the sewage system from the perspective of environmental support capacity. The literature review addressed four themes: sanitary sewage, surface water resources, pollution of water bodies by sanitary sewage and sustainability indicators. Based on the sanitary sewers and clean water bodies quality parameters standard, as well as environmental legislation, four risk ranges were identified associated with SDI values: above 0.1% a health and reservoir eutrophication risk was identified, above 5% an aquatic community risk, above 10% a landscape harmony risk and above 15% an odoriferous harmony risk. After the SDI was developed, it was accomplished the São Paulo's Metropolitan Area - SPRA case study: the sewage's índex values was calculated for it's sewage's sub-basins. The sub-basins with the highest values of SDI are located in a ring that surrounds the SPRA, whereas those with the lowest values are located inside and outside of this ring. Few sub-basins presented values below 0,1% and many showed values above 15%, which exceeds 200% in some cases. The SPRA case study was accomplished associated with territorial and socioeconomic variables, which allowed a discussion of the diagnosis and planning of the sewage system from the sustainability and associated risks point of view

RESUMO

Introducción La tromboembolia venosa es una enfermedad frecuente con una morbimortalidad elevada, que puede reducirse en forma drástica cuando la condición se reconoce y trata precozmente. Su diagnóstico tropieza con dos dificultades: la baja sospecha clínica y la complejidad de los recursos técnicos requeridos no siempre disponibles, lo que dificulta la aplicación de los algoritmos propuestos en las guías. Objetivos Evaluar las estrategias diagnósticas en los servicios de cuidados intensivos de la ciudad de Santa Fe ante la sospecha de tromboembolia venosa, identificar si se utiliza algún algoritmo diagnóstico y el grado de incertidumbre diagnóstica final. Material y métodos Se convocó a todos los servicios de cuidados intensivos para adultos de la ciudad de Santa Fe para la elaboración de un registro prospectivo, multicéntrico y observacional con el reclutamiento de los pacientes internados con sospecha de tromboembolia venosa [(trombosis venosa profunda (TVP) y/o tromboembolia pulmonar (TEP)]. Resultados En un período de 3 meses y medio se internaron 3.042 pacientes en los 19 servicios de cuidados intensivos de la ciudad. Se sospechó tromboembolia venosa en 83 pacientes (50 TEP, 10 TVP y 23 TEP + TVP). El diagnóstico se confirmó en 25 (30,1%), se descartó en 33 (39,8%) y permaneció incierto en 25 (30,1%). La incertidumbre diagnóstica final fue del 25,7% en los servicios privados y del 66,6% en los públicos. La tasa de sospecha fue del 2,7% (rango 0,9% a 8,8%). No hubo empleo sistemático de guías clínicas ni de consensos conocidos. Conclusiones Este registro mostró un índice de sospecha global bajo para tromboembolia venosa, no se utilizaron los algoritmos diagnósticos propuestos en guías y consensos y el diagnóstico per¡maneció incierto en el 30,1%.(AU)

RESUMO

O papel dos governos locais, antes vistos como mero prestadores de serviços, vem evoluindo, pós-Constituição de 1988, para o de agentes do desenvolvimento local. Neste contexto, eles devem assumir o seu papel constitucional de zelar pelo meio ambiente, tomando a decisão de envolver-se com o tema e capacitando-se através da instituição de um Sistema Municipal de Meio Ambiente - SISMUMA. O SISMUMA é um conjunto de órgãos e entidades do Município que são responsáveis pela preservação, conservação, proteção, defesa, melhoria, recuperação e controle do meio ambiente e uso adequado dos recursos ambientais do Município. Este Sistema é uma estrutura político-administrativa que em última instância visa a inserção do componente ambiental no processo de tomada de decisão local, por meio da formulação, implementação e avaliação de políticas ambientais e integração com outras políticas, considerando a realidade e potencialidade de cada região, em conformidade com os princípios de desenvolvimento sustentável. Este artigo visa caracterizar e contextualizar o SISMUMA no Brasil, discutindo o seu papel estratégico na governança para a sustentabilidade municipal, entendida como processo de articulação e negociação que potencializa a integração do componente ambiental no processo de tomada de decisão local, e consequentemente, no processo de desenvolvimento local.


After Brazilian 1988 Federal Constitution, the role of local governments is evolving from being seen as mere provider of services to being the local development agents. In this context, they must assume their constitutional role of looking after the environment, taking the decision of becoming involved in this matter and to qualify themselves by establishing a Environment Municipal System – SISMUMA. The SISMUMA is a group of municipal agencies and entities responsible for the preservation, conservation, protection, defense, improvement, restoration and control of the environment and appropriate use of the environmental resources of the municipality. This system is a political-administrative structure that ultimately aims at the integration of the environmental component in the local decision-making process, through the formulation, implementation and evaluation of environmental policies and integration with other policies. This is done considering the reality and potentiality of each region, in accordance with the principles of sustainable development. This article aims to characterize and contextualize the SISMUMA in Brazil, discussing its strategic role in municipal governance for the sustainability, role known as an articulation and negotiation process which reinforces the environmental integration component in the local decision-making , and consequently in the local development process.

RESUMO

El riesgo relativo (RR), la razón de productos cruzados (OR), la especificidad (E) y la sensibilidad (S) constituyen medidas de resumen para variables cualitativas de interés en Medicina. Se presenta el RR como una función continua de dos variables y se analiza la condición para la cual este se aproxima a la OR a partir de su desarrollo en serie de potencias. La sensibilidad, la especificidad y los valores predictivos (VPP y VPN) se analizan como funciones continuas de una variable en todo su dominio, con un comportamiento asintótico característico. A partir del estudio de un sistema de ecuaciones lineales homogéneo se deduce una ecuación general que vincula S, E, VPP y VPN y se discuten diferentes casos de interés(AU)


The relative risk (RR), the odds ratio (OR), the specificity (E) and the sensitivity (S) are measures for qualitative variables of medical interest in Medicine. It is analysed the RR as a continue function of two variables as well as the conditions by which it is approximated to the OR by means of a power series expansion. It is analysed too the sensitivity, the specificity and the predictive values as continue functions of one variable in all its domains of definition as well as the asymptotic behaviour of these functions. It is discussed different interesting cases by means of a system of linear equations in S, E, VPP, VPN(AU)

RESUMO

Avaliou-se o efeito de extratos vegetais de alfavaca-cravo (Ocimum gratissimum L.), cavalinha (Equisetum hyemale L.), coentro (Coriandrum sativum L.) e fumo (Nicotiana tabacum L.) sobre os pulgões Brevicoryne brassicae (L., 1758) e Myzus persicae (Sulzer, 1776), em couve Brassica oleracea(L.). Os tratamentos consistiram de extratos vegetais preparados a fresco e seco (nas concentrações de 2,5; 5,0 e 10%), do padrão inseticida acefato e de água. As soluções assim obtidas foram pulverizadas em discos de couve colocados sobre agar em placas de Petri, contendo vinte pulgões adultos. Na sequência, as placas de Petri foram vedadas com filme plástico transparente, sendo este procedimento repetido para as duas espécies de afídeos. A avaliação do número de ninfas e adultos vivos ocorreu 1, 12, 24 e 72 horas após a pulverização dos tratamentos. Os extratos de coentro e fumo preparados na concentração de 10% demonstraram ação tóxica semelhante à do inseticida organofosforado acefato, sobre adultos e ninfas dos pulgões Brevicoryne brassicae e Myzus persicae. O coentro evidenciou-se como alternativa promissora que merece estudos detalhados, no tocante a atuação de seus princípios ativos e determinação de dosagens, a fim de disponibilizar um produto botânico seguro para o controle de insetos.


Were accomplished the effect of plant extracts of clove basil (Ocimum gratissimum L.), horsetail (Equisetum hyemale L.), coriander (Coriandrum sativum L.) and tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum L.) on Brevicoryne brassicae (L., 1758) and Myzus persicae (Sulzer, 1776) aphids in cabbage Brassica oleracea (L.). The treatments consisted of plant extracts prepared fresh and dry (concentrations of 2.5; 5.0; and 10%) and the controls insecticide acephate and water. These solutions were sprayed on cabbage discs placed on agar in Petri dishes, containing twenty adult aphids. In sequence, the Petri dishes were sealed with plastic film and this procedure was repeated for the two aphid species studied. The assessment of the number of live nymphs and adults occurred at 1, 12, 24, and 72 hours after installation. The extracts of coriander and tobacco prepared in a concentration of 10% showed toxic effects similar to the organophosphate insecticide acephate, on adults and nymphs of the aphids Brevicoryne brassicae and Myzus persicae. Coriander revealed a promising alternative that deserves detailed studies regarding the performance of its active ingredients and dosage determination in order to provide a safe herbal product to control insects.

O coentro evidenciou-se como alternativa promissora que merece estudos detalhados, no tocante a atuação de seus princípios ativos e determinação de dosagens, a fim de disponibilizar um produto botânico seguro para o controle de insetos.

RESUMO

La determinación del nivel medio de mar (NMM) es una de las tareas de mayor importancia para la Geodesia, debido a su coincidencia con el geoide. En una primera aproximación, el NMM define el sistema de referencia vertical de cada país. En Venezuela, el NMM ha sido estimado a partir de registros realizados en estaciones mareográficas distribuidas a lo largo de la costa, durante largos periodos de tiempo. Los posibles cambios de esta superficie han sido determinados a partir de un análisis de dichos registros sin tomar en cuenta fuentes de movimiento terrestre y la interconexión de los mareógrafos, generando una representación aproximada de las variaciones del NMM. Ello ha motivado el desarrollo de una metodología que permita monitorizar y registrar los cambios en el NMM mediante técnicas geodésicas espaciales como de altimetría satelital y GPS. Se planificó y ejecutó la primera campaña de mediciones GPS en los mareógrafos de la red nacional. La naturaleza y exactitud requerida en la determinación de posiciones ameritó el desarrollo de una metodología de procesamiento adecuada. Se utilizó el Bernese GPS Software V 5.0 como plataforma para el diseño de dos estrategias de procesamiento y se utilizaron los servicios de procesamiento online CSRS-PPP y SCOUT con fines comparativos. Se describen las metodologías utilizadas y los criterios para la selección de la mejor opción de procesamiento.


Due to its coincidence with the geoid, the definition tool for most national vertical reference systems, the mean sea level (MSL) is considered as one of the most important tasks in Geodesy. The Venezuelan MSL has been established by long time records at various tide gauging stations alongside the coastline. These original registrations have been analyzed without consideration of possible landslides or ground movements at the stations, nor the interconnection of gauging stations, leading to an approximate image of MSL variations. Thus, a methodology has been developed to monitor and register MSL changes using spatial geodetic techniques such as GPS and satellite altimetry. A first simultaneous GPS observation campaign on all tide gauging stations in the country was planned and carried out. An adequate processing method was developed for obtaining high accuracy position results. Using the Bernese GPS Software Version 5.0 as a processing tool, two different strategies were applied and compared with the results from CSRS and SCOUT Precise Point Processing techniques. The methodologies applied and decision making critera for the best processing option are described.

RESUMO

Los avances experimentados en el campo de la informática médica en Cuba comprenden la investigación, la docencia, la asistencia secundaria y primaria; así como la gerencia de las instituciones de salud. En este campo, las aplicaciones pertenecientes a la denominada área de la inteligencia artificial despiertan un gran interés, debido a sus posibilidades para involucrarse en situaciones donde se requiere un gran acervo de conocimientos médicos, el veloz procesamiento de los datos y la toma efectiva de decisiones. Se valoran las perspectivas de uso de sistemas con comportamiento inteligente en el ámbito médico cubano, un objetivo básico en el sector de la salud, debido a la prioridad concedida a las investigaciones fundamentales y aplicadas en ciencias médicas en función de los programas dirigidos al mejoramiento de la salud de nuestro pueblo. Se plantean algunos problemas relevantes de cuya solución dependerá la implementación de ingenios que simulen el intelecto del médico en toda su dimensión. La aplicación de la inteligencia artificial en la Medicina, además de requerir de una adecuada delimitación de sus metas y tareas, plantea serias dificultades en los planos científicos, tecnológicos, filosóficos y éticos. A pesar de los esfuerzos, su concepto se utiliza todavía en no pocos casos para referirse a ciertas simulaciones por computadoras de operaciones consideradas antes inherentes al hombre mientras que las computadoras con atributos de inteligencia artificial son aún muy limitados, no perciben la semántica de la información y exhiben posibilidades lógicas muy modestas comparadas con las mostradas por los médicos(AU)


The advances attained in Medical Informatics in Cuba include research, teaching, primary and secondary health care, as well as the management of health institutions. In this field, the applications in the area called Artificial Intelligence arouse great interest because of their possibilities to be involved in situations where it is required a wealth of medical knowledge, the rapid data processing and the effective decision making. The prospects for using systems with intelligent behaviour in the Cuban medical area, a basic objective in the health sector due to the priority given to the fundamental and applied research in the medical sciences in function of the programs aimed at improving the health of our people, are assessed. The implementation of devices simulating the intellect of the doctor in all its dimension will depend on the solution of some significant problems that are exposed. The application of Artificial Intelligence in medicine, in addition to require an adequate delimitation of tasks and goals, poses serious difficulties at the scientific, technological, philosophical and ethic spheres. Despite the efforts, its concept is yet used in many cases to refer to certain computer simulations of operations that before were considered inherent to man while the computers with attributes of Artificial Intelligence are still very limited, do not perceive the semantics of the information and show very modest logical possibilities in comparison with those of the physicians(AU)
