RESUMO

INTRODUCTION AND HYPOTHESIS: Painful bladder syndrome (PBS) is frequently associated with deep endometriosis (DE), and both conditions cause chronic pelvic pain (CPP), which often impairs sleep quality. This study was aimed at analyzing the impact of CPP plus PBS in women with DE on the global sleep quality index using the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) and subsequently examine each sleep dimension. METHODS: One hundred and forty women with DE were included and answered the PSQI and the O'Leary-Sant Interstitial Cystitis Symptoms and Problem Index questionnaires with or without CPP. Women were categorized into good or poor sleepers using the PSQI cutoff; subsequently, a linear regression model was used to analyze the PSQI score and a logistic regression model for each questionnaire's sleep component. RESULTS: Only 13% of women with DE had a good sleep. Approximately 20% of those with DE but no/mild pain were good sleepers; 138 women with DE (88.5%), 94% with PBS, and 90.5% with moderate/severe pain were poor sleepers. For PSQI components, CPP worsened the subjective sleep quality by more than threefold (p = 0.019), increased sleep disturbances by nearly sixfold (p = 0.03), and decreased the sleep duration by practically sevenfold (p = 0.019). Furthermore, PBS increased sleep disturbances by nearly fivefold (p < 0.01). CONCLUSIONS: The addition of PBS to CPP in women with DE is devastating for overall sleep quality, probably because it impacts some sleep dimensions unaffected by CPP and amplifies the problem in those already affected by pain.

RESUMO

The objective is to evaluate knowledge on HPV vaccine and its use among university students. This is a cross-sectional study with 301 participants, of which 202 medical students from UERJ and UNIFESO (101 freshmen = M1 and 101 from the 6th year = M2) and 99 UERJ literature students (50 freshmen = L1 and 49 of the last year = L2). Information was obtained by questionnaires. Input and statistical analysis were carried out with the EPI-INFO 3.5.2 Program. Results showed that, among medical students, 21% of M1 and 16% of M2 used the HPV vaccine (p=0.35), mostly adopted by women (M1=29.7% and M2=21.3%) than men (M1=5.4% and M2=7.5%). Similarly, female students showed more interest in using the vaccine (M1=85.1% and M2=80%) than male (M1=56.2% and M2=20.5%). Among literature students, only women received the vaccine (L1=6.5% and L2=22.2%) and no men were vaccinated (p=0.04). More women expressed interest in receiving the vaccine than men (♀ L1=76%, L2=65% and ♂, L1=47%, L2=40%). Comparison among genders regardless of the course showed that the vaccination rate is higher among women (p<0.001), as is the interest in being vaccinated (p=0.004). We concluded that the majority of male university students know less about the HPV vaccine than the female ones, use less and are less interested in being vaccinated, in all the groups interviewed. Vaccination coverage is low among the university population and is higher among medical students.

RESUMO

The retropubic colposuspension in the treatment of stress urinary incontinence has been rescued with the laparoscopic route. Some authors have reduced the number of stitches, from two to one, due to the difficulty of suturing by this route. To what extent can this modification compromise outcome? To answer this question, we performed a systematic review and meta-analysis on the MEDLINE/PubMed and LILACS/SciELO databases between 1990 and 2015. We included randomized clinical trials, cohort studies and case-control series comparing laparoscopic versus open Burch, and two versus one stitch in laparoscopic Burch, with a minimum follow-up of one year. Fourteen studies compared laparoscopic versus open Burch, in which we found no differences between the two techniques using one stitch (Relative Risk - RR - of 0.94, 95% CI 0.79-1.11) and two stitches (RR of 1.03, 95% CI 0.97-1.10). Only one study compared one stitch versus two stitches in laparoscopic Burch, with cure rates of 68% versus 87%, respectively (p-value= 0.02). We did not identify differences when compared open technique with two stitches versus laparoscopic with one stitch and open technique with two stitches versus laparoscopic with two. The study comparing one versus two laparoscopic stitches demonstrated superior results with the latter. Although there is no robust evidence, when Burch surgery is performed laparoscopically, the use of two stitches seems to be the best option.

RESUMO A colpossuspensão retropúbica no tratamento da incontinência urinária de esforço vem sendo resgatada com a via laparoscópica. Alguns autores reduziram o número de suturas, de duas para uma, devido à dificuldade de sutura por esta via. Até que ponto essa modificação pode comprometer o resultado? Para responder a esta pergunta, foi realizada uma revisão sistemática e metanálise nas bases de dados MEDLINE/PubMed e LILACS/SciELO entre 1990 e 2015. Incluímos ensaios clínicos randomizados, estudos de coorte, caso controle, comparando Burch laparoscópico versus Burch aberto e duas versus uma sutura no Burch laparoscópico, com follow-up mínimo de um ano. Quatorze estudos compararam Burch laparoscópico versus aberto, nos quais não encontramos diferenças entre as duas técnicas, utilizando uma sutura (Risco Relativo (RR) de 0,94 [IC 95% - 0,79-1,11]) e duas suturas (RR de 1,03 [IC 95% - 0,97-1,10]). Apenas um estudo comparou uma sutura versus duas suturas no Burch laparoscópico, com taxas de cura de 68% versus 87%, respectivamente (p-valor=0,02). Quando comparadas técnica aberta com duas suturas versus laparoscópica com uma sutura e técnica aberta com duas suturas versus laparoscópica com duas suturas, não identificamos diferenças. O estudo que comparou uma versus duas suturas laparoscópicas demonstrou resultado superior com a técnica de duas suturas. Apesar de não haver evidências robustas, quando a cirurgia de Burch for realizada por via laparoscópica, o uso de duas suturas parece ser a melhor opção.
