RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: The present study seeks to assess the impact of gestational hypertensive disorders on premature newborns below 34 weeks and to establish the main morbidities and mortality in the neonatal period and at 18 months. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A retrospective observational study was carried out with 695 premature newborns of gestational age (GA) between 24 and 33 weeks and 6 days, born alive in the Neonatal ICU of Brasília's Mother and Child Hospital (HMIB), in the period from January 1, 2014, to July 31, 2019. In total, 308 infants were born to hypertensive mothers (G1) and 387 to normotensive mothers (G2). Twin pregnancies and diabetic patients with severe malformations were excluded. Outcomes during hospitalization and outcomes of interest were evaluated: respiratory distress syndrome (RDS), brain ultrasonography, diagnosis of bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD), diagnosis of necrotizing enterocolitis, retinopathy of prematurity, breastfeeding rate at discharge, survival at discharge and at 18 months of chronological age and relationship between weight and gestational age. RESULTS: Newborns with hypertensive mothers had significantly lower measurements of birth weight and head circumference. The G1 group had a higher risk small for gestational age (OR 2.4; CI 95% 1.6-3.6; p <0.00), as well as a greater risk of being born with a weight less than 850 g (OR 2.4; 95% CI 1.2-3.5; p <0.00). Newborns of mothers with hypertension presented more necrotizing enterocolitis (OR 2.0; CI 95% 1.1-3.7); however, resuscitation in the delivery room and the need to use surfactant did not differ between groups, nor did the length of stay on mechanical ventilation, or dependence on oxygen at 36 weeks of gestational age. Survival was better in newborns of normotensive mothers, and this was a protective factor against death (OR 0.7; 95% CI 0.5-0.9; p <0.01). In the follow-up clinic, survival at 18 months of chronological age was similar between groups, with rates of 95.3% and 92.1% among hypertensive and normotensive mothers, respectively. Exclusive breastfeeding at discharge was 73.4% in the group of hypertensive women and 77.3% in the group of normotensive mothers. There were no significant differences between groups. CONCLUSION: Among the analyzed outcomes, arterial hypertension during pregnancy can increase the risk of low weight, small babies for gestational age (SGA), deaths in the neonatal period and enterocolitis, with no differences in weight and survival at 18 months of chronological age. Arterial hypertension presents a high risk of prematurity in the neonatal period, with no difference at 18 months of age.

RESUMO

Our objectives were to examine demographic and ethnic factors associated with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis in Brazil. The method used was a retrospective study of death certificates performed in June 2015, identifying the incidence of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis over 10 years, from January 2004 to December 2013, related to gender, age and race. Results revealed 8942 death certificates with 8152 as the underlying cause and 790 as a secondary cause. The average age was 62.7 ± 13.2 years, with a predominance of males (1·3:1). The adjusted mortality rate over 20 years was 0.61 to 0.89/100,000 person-years, and over 45 years was 1.77 to 2.3/100,000 person-years. There was a predominance of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis in Caucasians compared to the general population above 20 years (2010 Census), with an odds ratio (OR) of 2.92 (95% CI 2.78-3.07). The OR in blacks was 0.04 (95% CI: 0.03-0.04), in mestizos was 0.05 (0.04-0.07), and in Indians was 0.02 (0.01-0.04). The mean age was lower than in European populations (48.5 ± 12.3 years) (p < 0.0001). In conclusion, the incidence of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis in Brazil is close to other Latin American populations, with a lower age at death and clear predominance in Caucasians.

RESUMO

La investigación constituye una prioridad para cualquier sistema de salud pública porque los resultados generados, positivos o no, tienden a optimizar procesos y reducir costes. En situaciones críticas, las evidencias aportadas por los investigadores pueden determinar en la permanencia, modificación o incluso eliminación de ciertos programas o métodos de la práctica cotidiana. Consecuentemente, quienes diseñan y/o conducen investigaciones deben ser responsables y recibir la mayor atención de los decisores en salud y de la sociedad en general. La ciencia, sus avances, sus desafíos y sobre todo sus resultados, no pueden quedar encerrados en los laboratorios o instituciones científicas, por el contrario, deben abrirse a la sociedad para lograr su implementación oportuna.


The scientific process is a priority for any public health system because the results, positives or not, contribute to optimize processes and to reduce costs. In critical situations the evidences provided by investigators can determine the permanency, modification or even elimination of certain programs or methods of the daily practice. Consequently those who design and/or to drive investigations need to be responsible and to receive the major attention from the society and the politicians. Science, its advances, its challenges and mainly its results, cannot be locked in laboratories or scientific institutions; on the contrary, they should open up to the society for their timely implementation.

RESUMO

INTRODUCTION: In order to warrant the quality of the products offered to their clients at home, hospitalar units need to adequate their physical structures to develop their specialized activities on enteral nutrition. OBJECTIVE: The present article aims to provide a functional planning and tools for the reorganization of the physical space of an enteral nutrition preparation unit describing its features and function. METHODS: A descriptive, prospective and documental study was undertaken, providing the tools for the functional planning and quality management at a unit of enteral nutrition preparation in a public hospital in the Federal District, Brazil. Data were collected in the period from 2000 to 2010. RESULTS: Through the establishment of a Home Enteral Nutrition Program in the Public Health Department of the Federal District and as determined by the publication of national legislation, a District Plan of High Complexity in Enteral Nutrition was conducted, according to the demographic and epidemiological profile of the population.This plan consisted of the proposal for implementation of the high complexity in nutritional therapy, according to the Health Ministry legislation. The number of patients assisted by this therapeutical modality has increased, which indicates the need to ensure the quality of dispensed formulas through the planning of functional spaces. CONCLUSION: The functional planning of an Enteral Nutrition Laboratory ensures assistance for the needs of the population enrolled at the hospital and at home, allowing the proper training of caregivers aiming at the adequacy of necessary precautions in manipulating enteral formulas.

RESUMO

Os ésteres de esterol e estanóis vegetais sao reconhecidos como componentes "funcionais" dos alimentos por apresentarem propriedades hipocolesterolêmicas. Os fitosteróis sao compostos esteróis osbtidos de óleos vegetais. Neste estudo foi realizado una análise críticarevisao de estudos experimentais e clínicos recentes, publicados em base de datos Medline e Lilacs, abordando a açao farmacológica dos fitoesteróis e fitoestanóis na colesterolemia. Os efeitos hipocolesterolemiantes sao observados pela ingestao de dosesmarciças, em dose única ou múltipla, de até 2,5 g/dia destes compostos. O consumo diário por durante quatro semanas tem evidenciado a reduçao dos níveis sanguíneos de colesterol total (CT) e LDL-colesterol (LDL-c) em cerca de 10 por cento. O mecanismo de açao na disminuçia da colesterolemia se deve, possivelmente, àsua semelhança estrutural com o colesterol, o que favorece uma competiçao na absorçao intestinal, entre ésteres de esterol e/.ou estanol e o colesterol. Efeitos adversos da suplementaçao de fitosteróis e fitostanóis ocasionaram a disminuçao da absorçao de algunas vitaminas e antioxidantes lipossolúveis
