RESUMO
Resumo Objetivo Identificar a prevalência e fatores relacionados à noctúria em mulheres que apresentam sintomas do trato urinário inferior. Métodos Inquérito observacional transversal, individuado, de base hospitalar, envolvendo mulheres atendidas pelo Sistema Único de Saúde em ambulatórios de uroginecologia em Niterói e Petrópolis, RJ, Brasil. Foram coletados dados sociodemográficos, clínicos e hábitos de vida. Foram considerados dois desfechos de noctúria: uma ou mais micções e duas ou mais micções, o segundo devido ao maior impacto na qualidade de vida. As associações entre as variáveis investigadas e os desfechos foram avaliadas por modelo de regressão logística, e obtidas razões de chances brutas e ajustadas. Resultados Foram incluídas 132 participantes. A prevalência de noctúria foi 71,2% e, de duas ou mais micções, 56,8%. Houve associação de menor escolaridade (OR: 0,260 [0,106;0,637], p=0,003), incontinência urinária mista (OR: 2,533 [1,103;5,817], p=0,028) e três ou mais comorbidades (OR: 3,105 [1,340;7,196], p=0,008) com maior chance de noctúria. Menor escolaridade (OR: 0,324 [0,148;0,709], p=0,005), menor consumo de cafeína (OR: 0,995 [0,990;1,000], p=0,041) e síndrome da bexiga hiperativa (OR: 2,761 [1,189;6,409], p=0,018) mostraram-se associadas a uma maior chance de duas ou mais micções. Conclusões Na população atendida em serviços especializados, a prevalência de noctúria foi semelhante à da população em geral e à de serviços semelhantes, mas a prevalência de duas ou mais micções foi superior. Mostrou-se importante a busca ativa de noctúria em mulheres com comorbidades, em especial três ou mais, e a adequada compensação das mesmas no manejo do sintoma.
Abstract Objective To identify the prevalence and factors related to nocturia in women presenting lower urinary tract symptoms. Methods Observational cross-sectional survey, individualized, hospital-based, involving women attended by the Unified Health System in urogynecology outpatient clinics in Niterói and Petrópolis, RJ, Brazil. Sociodemographic, clinical, and lifestyle data were collected. Two outcomes of nocturia were considered: one or more nocturnal voids and two or more nocturnal voids, the latter due to its greater impact on quality of life. Associations between the investigated variables and the outcomes were assessed by logistic regression models, and crude and adjusted odds ratios were obtained. Results A total of 132 participants were included. The prevalence of nocturia was 71.2%, and of two or more voids, 56.8%. Lower education level OR 0,260 (0,106; 0,637), mixed urinary incontinence OR 2,533 (1,103; 5,817), and three or more comorbidities OR 3,105 (1,340; 7,196) were associated with a higher chance of nocturia. Lower education level OR 0,324 (0,148; 0,709), lower caffeine consumption OR 0,995 (0,990; 1,000), and overactive bladder syndrome OR 2,761 (1,189; 6,409) were associated with a higher chance of two or more voids. Conclusions In the population attending specialized services, the prevalence of nocturia was similar to that of the general population and to that of similar services, but the prevalence of two or more voids was higher. Active screening for nocturia in women with comorbidities, especially three or more, and their adequate management, proved to be important in addressing the symptom.

OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to assess physicians' knowledge about human papillomavirus infection and its prevention. METHODS: Descriptive web-based survey with 15 objective questions targeted to physicians affiliated with the Regional Council of Medicine from Rio de Janeiro state, Brazil. Participants were invited by e-mail and the Council social networks, between January and December 2019. RESULTS: The study sample had 623 participants, with a median age of 45 years, predominantly women (63%). The most frequent specialties were Obstetrics and Gynecology (21.1%), Pediatrics (11.2%), and Internists (10.5%). Concerning human papillomavirus knowledge, 27.9% of the participants were able to identify accurately all possible forms of transmission, and none of them could recognize all the risk factors of infection. Nevertheless, 95% recognized that asymptomatic infection could occur in both sexes. Regarding knowledge about clinical manifestations, diagnosis, and screening, only 46.5% were able to identify all human papillomavirus-related cancers, 42.6% were aware of the periodicity of Pap smears, and 39.4% indicated that serological test was not adequate for diagnosis. The recommended age group for human papillomavirus vaccination was recognized by 94% of the participants, as well as the need for a Pap smear and the use of condoms, even after vaccination. CONCLUSIONS: There is good knowledge about prevention and screening for human papillomavirus infections; many gaps were identified regarding transmission, risk factors, and associated diseases among physicians in Rio de Janeiro state.

RESUMO
A utilização do conceito des-existir, usado por mim neste e em outros trabalhos, resulta de uma necessidade de nomear e delimitar situações em geral transitórias limitadas à esfera psíquica. Diferencia-se do conceito de matar, verbo ativo que implica na ação de um sujeito, seja em termos físicos ou metafóricos. Assim como diferencia-se também do conceito de morrer, ligado a algo mais definitivo em termos naturais ou figurados. Des-existir refere-se a uma situação momentânea, temporária e às vezes prolongada, em que o sujeito entra em processo de falência como sujeito psíquico por desinvestimento. Pode ser des-existido em diferentes graus de apagamento em um espectro que se estende entre a situação ativa de sujeito e a condição passiva de objeto da pulsão de morte (AU)
I employ the idea of de-existing, in this and other papers, as a result from an urge to name and delimit usually transient situations limited to the psychic sphere. It differs from the idea of killing, active verb that implies the action of a subject, in physical or metaphorical terms. As well as it also differs from the idea of dying, connected to something more definitive in natural or figurative terms. De-existing refers to a momentary, temporary situation, sometimes long-lasting, in which, due to disinvestment, the subject goes into a process of failure as psychic subject. It may be de-existed in different levels of effacement in a spectrum that extends between the active situation as subject and the passive condition of object of the death drive (AU)
El uso del concepto des-existir, que utilizo en este y otros trabajos, resulta de una necesidad de nombrar y delimitar en general situaciones transitorias limitadas a la esfera psíquica. Se diferencia del concepto de matar, verbo activo que implica la acción de un sujeto, ya sea en términos físicos o metafóricos. Además, también se diferencia del concepto de morir, ligado a algo más definitivo en términos naturales o figurativos. El des-existir se refiere a una situación momentánea, temporal y en ocasiones prolongada en la que el sujeto entra en proceso de desplome como sujeto psíquico debido a la desinversión. Puede ser des-existido en diferentes grados de desvanecimiento en un espectro que se extiende entre la situación activa del sujeto y la condición pasiva de objeto de la pulsión de muerte (AU)

OBJECTIVES To assess the prevalence of nocturia and identify factors associated with it in a community-dwelling population. METHODS A cross-sectional study was conducted in subjects aged 45 years or more and registered with a Family Doctor Program. Information was collected about nocturia, other urinary symptoms, physical examination, co-morbidities, demographics, socio-economic, and lifestyle factors. Multiple logistics regression models were developed to analyze associated factors for nocturia according to gender and the number of nocturnal micturitions(≥1 and ≥2). RESULTS Out of the 661 individuals included in the study, 62.3% were women. Among the women, the prevalence rates for nocturia ≥1 time and ≥2 times were, respectively, 68.4% and 49%, whereas, among the men, they were 64.3% and 43.8%. Among the women, nocturia ≥1 time was associated with brown skin, a higher BMI, lower schooling, and calcium channel blockers(CCB) use, while nocturia ≥2 times showed association with higher BMI, lower schooling, obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), and the use of CCB. Among the men, nocturia ≥1 time was associated positively with age, alcohol intake, and OSA, and negatively with angiotensin receptor blockers and beta-blockers use. Besides, nocturia ≥2 times was associated with age, not having health insurance, and OSA. CONCLUSIONS Nocturia is a condition highly prevalent in the studied population. For the female subjects, a higher BMI, lower schooling, and the use of CCB were associated with nocturia regardless of the definition used, whereas, among the men, that same association was found with age, not having health insurance, and OSA.

RESUMO OBJETIVOS Estimar a prevalência de noctúria e identificar fatores demográficos, socioeconômicos, clínicos e de estilo de vida associados ao sintoma em uma população comunitária. MÉTODO Estudo transversal em indivíduos com 45 anos ou mais. Foram obtidas informações demográficas, socioeconômicas, sobre noctúria, outros sintomas urinários, exame físico, comorbidades e estilo de vida. As análises foram feitas separadamente de acordo com o gênero e com o número de micções noturnas (≥1 vez e ≥2 vezes). RESULTADOS Dentre os 661 indivíduos incluídos, 62,3% eram mulheres. Entre elas, a prevalência de noctúria ≥1 vez e ≥2 vezes foi, respectivamente, de 68,4% e 49%, enquanto entre os homens foi de 64,3% e 43,8%. Entre as mulheres, a noctúria ≥1 mostrou associação com cor da pele parda, maior IMC, baixa escolaridade e uso de bloqueadores dos canais de cálcio (BCC), enquanto noctúria ≥2 vezes mostrou associação com maior IMC, baixa escolaridade, apneia obstrutiva do sono (AOS) e uso de BCC. Entre os homens, a noctúria ≥1 vez esteve associada positivamente com idade, ingestão de álcool e AOS, e negativamente com uso de bloqueadores dos receptores da angiotensina e de beta-bloqueadores. Além disso, noctúria ≥2 vezes associou-se a idade, não ter plano de saúde e AOS. CONCLUSÕES A noctúria é uma condição altamente prevalente na população estudada. Para as mulheres, IMC elevado, baixa escolaridade e uso de BCC estiveram associados com noctúria independente da definição, enquanto que, para os homens, a mesma associação foi identificada com idade, não ter plano de saúde e AOS.

Captive-born animals frequently lose their anti-predatory abilities due to the absence of encounters with their predators, but these abilities can be regained through specific training. Anti-predator training can, thus, enhance the success of reintroduction programs with predator naïve animals. In addition, a good memory is important to guarantee the effects of the anti-predator training and increase survival rate after release into the wild. In the present study, anti-predator training sessions were applied to 11 captive-born collared peccaries (Pecari tajacu), followed by memory tests at 30, 60 and 90 days after the end of the training sessions. The collared peccaries responded appropriately to training against predators, showing alert, escape and predator avoidance behaviors after anti-predator training; however, the animals maintained these acquired behaviors for only 30 days after the end of the anti-predator training. After 60 days, peccaries responded to the predator in a 'relaxed' manner, exhibiting no anti-predator behaviors. For the trained collared peccaries to be released into the wild, reinforcement in the anti-predator training would be required at least 30 days prior to release.

Objetivo: O objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar o impacto da incontinência urinária feminina sobre a qualidade de vida (QV), levando em consideração o resultado do estudo urodinâmico. A incontinência urinária é queixa frequente em mulheres, afetando negativamente a QV. Métodos: Trata-se de estudo transversal, retrospectivo, em banco de dados contendo informações sociodemográficas, clínicas e do estudo urodinâmico e os escores de QV da versão brasileira do King's Health Questionnaire de pacientes atendidas em hospital universitário. Resultados: Não foi observada diferença no impacto dos diferentes diagnósticos urodinâmicos, inclusive exames normais, sobre os domínios percepção geral de saúde e impacto da incontinência. Conclusão: Comparada com a incontinência de esforço e exames normais, a incontinência mista mostrou piores escores nos domínios limitações físicas e limitações das atividades diárias. Já a hiperatividade do detrusor esteve associada a piores escores de limitações das atividades diárias e sono, comparada com a incontinência de esforço, e de limitações físicas, comparada com exames normais.(AU)
Objective: This study aimed to assess the impact of female urinary incontinence on quality of life, according to urodynamic diagnosis. Urinary incontinence is a frequent complaint among women and affects the quality of life negatively. Methods: A retrospective cross-sectional study using a database containing sociodemographic and clinical information, the results from urodynamics and the scores of the Brazilian version of the King's Health Questionnaire of patients attended at a university hospital was performed. Results: There was no difference in the impact of urodynamics diagnosis, including normal exams, in the scores of the general health perception and incontinence impact domains. Conclusion: When compared to normal exams and urinary stress incontinence, mixed incontinence showed lower scores in the role limitations and physical limitations domains. Detrusor overactivity was associated with lower scores in the sleep and role limitations domains, in comparison with urinary stress incontinence, and in the physical limitation domain, compared to normal exams.(AU)

OBJETIVO: Avaliar, em uma população feminina com incontinência urinária, a prevalência de incontinência dupla, seus fatores associados e seu impacto sobre a qualidade de vida. MÉTIDO: Estudo transversal em mulheres com incontinência urinária ou dupla (incontinência urinária e fecal) atendidas em um hospital terciário do Sistema Único de Saúde. Foram colhidas informações sociodemográficas e clínicas, e a qualidade de vida foi avaliada por meio de questionários validados. A associação entre as variáveis e os tipos de disfunção (incontinência urinária e dupla) e com a pior percepção geral de saúde foi determinada pelos testes de Mann-Whitney, qui-quadrado e Fisher. RESULTADOS: A amostra do estudo foi composta por 227 mulheres, das quais 120 (52,9%) eram idosas. A prevalência de incontinência dupla foi de 14,1%, e os fatores a ela associados foram maior número de comorbidades (p-valor=0,04), polifarmácia (p-valor=0,04) e presença de retocele (p-valor=0,02). Mostraram associação com pior percepção geral de saúde o IMC (quanto maior, pior; p-valor=0,02) e maior número de comorbidades (p-valor=0,05), mas não a incontinência dupla (p-valor=0,36). CONCLUSÃO: A prevalência de incontinência dupla foi diferente da encontrada em estudos realizados em cenários semelhantes. A população estudada apresenta baixos escores de percepção geral de saúde, mas a incontinência dupla não esteve associada a tais escores. A presença de múltiplas comorbidades está associada tanto à presença de incontinência dupla quanto à pior percepção geral de saúde. AU
Objective: To evaluate the prevalence, associated factors, and impact on quality of life of double incontinence in a group of women with urinary incontinence. METHOD: A cross-sectional study was performed, including female patients with urinary or double incontinence (urinary and fecal incontinence) treated at a tertiary hospital from the public healthcare system. Information about sociodemographic and clinical characteristics was collected, and quality of life was assessed using validated questionnaires. The Mann-Whitney, Chi-square, and Fisher tests were used to evaluate the association between the variables and the types of dysfunction (urinary or double incontinence) and a worse general health perception. RESULTS: Of 227 incontinent women included in the study, 120 (52,9%) were older individuals. The prevalence of double incontinence was 14.1% (32 patients). Double incontinence was associated with a higher number of comorbidities (p-value=0.04), polypharmacy (p-value=0.04), and rectocele (p-valor=0.02). Higher BMI (p-value=0.02) and number of comorbidities (p-value=0.05), but not double incontinence (p-value=0.36), were associated with low general health perception scores. CONCLUSION: the prevalence of double incontinence was different from other studies conducted in similar scenarios. The group of women included in the study presented low general health perception scores, but this was not associated with the presence of double incontinence. A higher number of comorbidities was associated with both double incontinence and a lower general health perception. AU

Introdução: A prevalência das incontinências anal e urinária que são mais comuns em mulheres, aumenta com a idade. Tais disfunções podem ser encontradas isoladamente ou em associação (incontinência dupla) e podem provocar grande impacto na qualidade de vida. Objetivos: Avaliar a prevalência das incontinências anal e dupla e o impacto dessas condições sobre a qualidade de vida de mulheres idosas da comunidade. Casuística e Métodos: Estudo observacional descritivo, realizado em mulheres com mais de 60 anos que buscaram a unidade básica de saúde para vacinação. Para a triagem de incontinência urinária e anal, foram utilizadas versões brasileiras dos questionários International Consultation on Incontinence Questionnaire - Short Form e do Índice de Incontinência Anal. Mulheres que apresentaram escores diferentes de zero em ambos questionários receberam diagnóstico de incontinência dupla. A avaliação do impacto da incontinência anal na qualidade de vida foi feita por meio do questionário Fecal Incontinence Quality of Life Questionnaire. As variáveis foram estudadas de maneira descritiva, por meio do cálculo de frequências absolutas e relativas e, no caso da variável idade e dos escores de qualidade de vida, por meio do cálculo da média e desvio-padrão. Resultados: Participaram da pesquisa 66 mulheres, com média de idade de 69,6±7,2 anos. A prevalência de incontinência anal foi de 28,8% (n=19), e a prevalência de incontinência dupla foi de 18,1% (n=12). Pacientes com incontinência anal isolada e dupla apresentaram impacto negativo na qualidade de vida, conforme indicado pelos escores dos domínios avaliados. Conclusão: A prevalência de incontinência anal foi mais elevada do que a prevalência de incontinência fecal isolada ou de incontinência anal encontrada em outras populações. O mesmo foi observado em relação à prevalência de incontinência dupla. Houve impacto negativo de ambas as condições em todos os domínios de qualidade de vida avaliados.
Introduction: The prevalence of anal and urinary incontinence is more frequent in women, and it increases with age. Such dysfunctions may be found alone or in combination (double incontinence), and they may have a major impact on quality of life. Objectives: Evaluate the prevalence of anal and double incontinence, as well as the impact these conditions cause on the quality of life of elderly women residents in a community. Patients and Methods: We carried out an observational descriptive study involving women aged 60 and over who sought the Primary Health Care Unit for vaccination. For the urinary and anal incontinence screening, Brazilian versions of the International Consultation on Incontinence Questionnaire - Short Form and the Anal Incontinence Index were used.Women who presented scores different from zero in bothquestionnaires were diagnosed with double incontinence. Theevaluation on the impact of anal incontinence on quality of lifewas done through the Brazilian version of Fecal IncontinenceQuality of Life Questionnaire. We used descriptive statistics tocalculate relative and absolute frequencies. Age and Qualityof life domain scores were expressed using mean and standarddeviation. Results: Sixty-six women were included in thestudy. Mean age was 69.6±7.2 years. The prevalence of AnalIncontinence was 28.8% (n=19) and the prevalence of doubleincontinence was 18.1% (n=12). Patients with isolated anddouble anal incontinence had a negative impact on qualityof life, as indicated by the scores of the domains evaluated.Conclusions: The prevalence of anal incontinence was higherthan the prevalence of isolated fecal incontinence or analincontinence found in studies carried out in other populations.The same results were observed for the prevalence of doubleincontinence. We identified negative impact of both conditionson all domains of quality of life

Objetivo: Avaliar a qualidade de vida de mulheres com infecções recorrentes do trato urinário em atendimento ambulatorial, utilizando dois instrumentos, e verificar concordância entre eles. Métodos: Estudo transversal com mulheres com infecções recorrentes do trato urinário, confirmados pela cultura de urina, utilizando WHOQOL-bref e King´s Health Questionaire (KHQ). Resultados: Participaram 30 mulheres com idade entre 20 e 87 anos. De acordo com o WHOQOL-bref, seis (20,0%) mulheres referiam qualidade de vida ruim ou muito ruim e 17 (56,7%) estavam insatisfeitas ou muito insatisfeitas com a saúde. Houve boa consistência do instrumento WHOQOL-bref para qualidade de vida geral, satisfação com a saúde e domínio físico; o KHQ apresentou consistência satisfatória para todos os domínios, exceto Medidas de Gravidade. O KHQ mostrou maior comprometimento da qualidade de vida nos domínios: Impacto da Incontinência, Relações Pessoais e Emoções. Houve correlação significativa entre WHOQOL-bref e KHQ, em todos os domínios. Conclusão: As mulheres apresentaram maior comprometimento da qualidade de vida nos domínios: Impacto da Incontinência, Relacionamentos Pessoais e Emoções para KHQ; Físico para WHOQOL-bref. Houve correlação significativa entre os domínios do King´s Health Questionaire e WHOQOL-bref, demonstrando que ambos são úteis para avaliação da qualidade de vida nessa população. (AU)
Objective: To evaluate quality of life of women with recurrent urinary tract infections in ambulatory care, using two instruments, and verify consistency between them. Methods: Crosssectional study on women with recurrent urinary tract infections, confirmed by a urine culture, using WHOQOL-bref and King's Health Questionaire (KHQ). Results: Participated 30 women aged between 20 and 87 years. According to the WHOQOL-bref, six (20.0%) women reported quality of life bad or very bad and 17 (56.7%) were dissatisfied or very dissatisfied with health. There was good consistency of WHOQOL-bref instrument for the overall quality of life, satisfaction with health and the physical domain; KHQ presented satisfactory consistency for all fields except Severity Measures. The largest commitment of KHQ showed quality of life in the fields: Impact of Incontinence, Personal Relationships and Emotions. There was no significant correlation between the WHOQOL-bref and KHQ in all areas. Conclusion: Women showed greater impairment of the quality of life in the domains: Impact of Incontinence, Personal Relationships and Emotions to the KHQ; and Physical to WHOQOL-bref. There was no significant correlation between the areas of King's Health Questionaire and WHOQOL-bref, demonstrating that both are useful for the assessment of quality of life in this population. (AU)

Introduction: Urinary incontinence (UI) is prevalent in women, and the frequency of its clinical subtypes varies according to the population studied and the choice of diagnostic criteria. The aim of this study was to evaluate the distribution of the most common subtypes stress urinary incontinence (SUI) and mixed urinary incontinence (MUI) and their correlation with demographic, clinical and reproductive factors of patients seen at the university hospital of Universidade Federal do Rio de Janeiro. Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted in a referral service of a tertiary care center. A retrospective analysis of records of 770 women referred to the urogynecologic outpatient clinic was performed. The clinical diagnosis of UI subtype was established in accordance with international standardization. Women presenting with SUI and MUI were compared in terms of age, reproductive history, comorbidities, medications used and gynecological surgeries. The effect of independent variables was assessed through multiple regression analyses. Results: The frequency of the clinical diagnosis of MUI and SUI was, respectively, 54.6% and 31.8%. Factors associated with MUI when compared with SUI were diabetes mellitus (odds ratio, OR = 1.75; 95% confidence interval, 95% CI = 1.08; 2.85) and perineoplasty (OR = 1.79; 95% CI = 1.18; 2.72). Age showed a borderline significance (p = 0.05). Conclusions: The distribution of UI subtypes was different from the distribution found in populational studies, which shows the specific aspects of women referred for specialized care. MUI was the most common subtype and was associated with previous vaginal surgery and diabetes mellitus when compared with SUI (AU)

OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to determine the acetabular bone lesion size (in millimeters) from which impacted bone graft failure starts to occur more frequently, through simple anteroposterior hip radiographs, and whether measurement of the defect on simple radiographs maintains the same pattern in inter and intraobserver assessments. METHODS: Thirty-eight anteroposterior pelvic-view radiographs from patients undergoing revision of an acetabular prosthesis were retrospectively analyzed and assessed. In the vertical plane, the bilacrimal line was measured in millimeters from the farthest point found on the bone edge of the acetabular osteolysis to the top edge of the cementation or of the acetabular implant in uncemented cases. The base was taken to be a line perpendicular to bilacrimal line, with the aim of eliminating any pelvic tilt effects. This measurement was named the vertical size of failure. Radiographs produced four years after the operation were analyzed to investigate any failure of the technique. RESULTS: The graft failure rate in the study group was 26.3%. The failures occurred in cases with an initial bone defect larger than 11 mm. No cases with measurements smaller than this evolved with failure of the revision. The highest incidence of graft failure occurred in cases described as advanced according to the "Paprosky" classification. CONCLUSION: Failure of acetabular revision arthroplasty using an impacted graft did not present any statistically significant correlation with the vertical extent of the lesion on simple anteroposterior radiographs, as a predictor of treatment failure.
OBJETIVO: O presente trabalho buscou, através de uma radiografia simples anteroposterior do quadril, quantificar em milímetros a partir de qual tamanho da lesão óssea acetabular ocorre com maior frequência falha do enxerto ósseo impactado e se a medição do defeito nas radiografias simples mantém o mesmo padrão na avaliação inter e intraobservador. MÉTODOS: Foram analisadas e aferidas retrospectivamente 38 radiografias de pacientes submetidos à revisão de prótese acetabular na incidência anteroposterior de bacia, mensurando em milímetros, no plano vertical a linha bilacrimal, a medida entre o ponto mais distante encontrado na borda óssea da osteolise acetabular, com a margem superior da cimentação ou implante acetabular nos casos não cimentados.

RESUMO
ABSTRACT OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to determine the acetabular bone lesion size (in millimeters) from which impacted bone graft failure starts to occur more frequently, through simple anteroposterior hip radiographs, and whether measurement of the defect on simple radiographs maintains the same pattern in inter and intraobserver assessments. METHODS: Thirty-eight anteroposterior pelvic-view radiographs from patients undergoing revision of an acetabular prosthesis were retrospectively analyzed and assessed. In the vertical plane, the bilacrimal line was measured in millimeters from the farthest point found on the bone edge of the acetabular osteolysis to the top edge of the cementation or of the acetabular implant in uncemented cases. The base was taken to be a line perpendicular to bilacrimal line, with the aim of eliminating any pelvic tilt effects. This measurement was named the vertical size of failure. Radiographs produced four years after the operation were analyzed to investigate any failure of the technique. RESULTS: The graft failure rate in the study group was 26.3%. The failures occurred in cases with an initial bone defect larger than 11 mm. No cases with measurements smaller than this evolved with failure of the revision. The highest incidence of graft failure occurred in cases described as advanced according to the "Paprosky" classification. CONCLUSION: Failure of acetabular revision arthroplasty using an impacted graft did not present any statistically significant correlation with the vertical extent of the lesion on simple anteroposterior radiographs, as a predictor of treatment failure.
RESUMO OBJETIVO: O presente trabalho buscou, através de uma radiografia simples anteroposterior do quadril, quantificar em milímetros a partir de qual tamanho da lesão óssea acetabular ocorre com maior frequência falha do enxerto ósseo impactado e se a medição do defeito nas radiografias simples mantém o mesmo padrão na avaliação inter e intraobservador. MÉTODOS: Foram analisadas e aferidas retrospectivamente 38 radiografias de pacientes submetidos à revisão de prótese acetabular na incidência anteroposterior de bacia, mensurando em milímetros, no plano vertical a linha bilacrimal, a medida entre o ponto mais distante encontrado na borda óssea da osteolise acetabular, com a margem superior da cimentação ou implante acetabular nos casos não cimentados. Tomamos como base uma linha perpendicular a linha bilacrimal com o intuito de eliminar efeitos de inclinação pelvic. Essa medida foi denominada Tamanho Vertical da Falha. Radiografias pós-operatórias com quatro anos foram analisadas para averiguar falha da técnica. RESULTADOS: No grupo estudado observamos 26,3% de falhas do enxerto que ocorreram a partir de 11 mm de tamanho da falha óssea inicial mensurada e que abaixo desse valor nenhum caso evoluiu com falha da revisão. A maior incidência da falha do enxerto ocorreu nos casos avançados segundo a classificação de Paprosky. CONCLUSÃO: A falha na artroplastia de revisão acetabular com enxerto impactado quando relacionado à medida vertical da lesão em radiografia simples anteroposterior do quadril não apresentou significância estatística como fator preditivo de falha do tratamento.

ABSTRACT CONTEXT AND OBJECTIVES: Urinary tract infections are the most common cause of hospital-acquired infections, and the use of indwelling urinary catheters is a predisposing factor for their development. The aims of this study were to estimate the frequency of pre and postoperative bacteriuria, identify the microorganisms involved, count the colony-forming units, determine the antibiotic sensitivity profile and compare the results from pre and postoperative urinalyses among women undergoing gynecological surgery with implantation of a urinary catheter. DESIGN AND SETTING: Non-controlled prospective observational single-cohort epidemiological study carried out at a university hospital. METHODS: Urine samples were collected before and 24 hours after catheterization for urinalysis, culturing and antibiotic sensitivity testing. Pre and postoperative urinalyses were compared using Wilcoxon and McNemar non-parametric tests. RESULTS: Fifty-one women participated in the study. Escherichia coligrew in six preoperative samples (11.8%) and Klebsiella pneumoniae in one (1.9%), but bacterial growth did not occur in any postoperative sample. Urinalysis showed lower number of pus cells in the postoperative urine samples (P < 0.05). There were no differences in red blood cell counts or in the nitrite and leukocyte esterase tests, between the samples. CONCLUSION: Bacteriuria was found in 13.7% of the preoperative samples. Gram-negative bacteria sensitive to most antibiotics were identified. In the postoperative samples, no bacterial growth was observed. Urinalysis only showed significant reduction of leukocyturia in the postoperative period.
RESUMO CONTEXTO E OBJETIVOS: As infecções urinárias são a causa mais comum de infecções hospitalares, e o uso de cateteres de demora é fator predisponente para o seu desenvolvimento. Os objetivos deste estudo foram estimar a frequência de bacteriúria pré e pós-operatória, identificar os germes encontrados, a contagem de unidades formadoras de colônias e o perfil de sensibilidade aos antibióticos, além de comparar os resultados dos exames de urina pré- e pós-operatórios em mulheres submetidas a cirurgias ginecológicas com cateterismo vesical. TIPO DE ESTUDO E LOCAL: Estudo epidemiológico, observacional, de coorte única, prospectivo, não controlado, realizado em hospital universitário. MÉTODOS: Amostras de urina foram colhidas antes da cateterização e após 24 horas para urinálise, cultura e antibiograma. Os resultados da urinálise no pré- e pós-operatório foram comparados utilizando-se os testes não paramétricos de Wilcoxon e McNemar. RESULTADOS: Participaram do estudo 51 mulheres. Houve crescimento de Escherichia coli em seis amostras pré-operatórias (11,8%) e deKlebsiella pneumoniae em uma (1,9%), mas não houve crescimento bacteriano em nenhuma amostra pós-operatória. A urinálise mostrou menor quantidade de piócitos na amostra de urina pós-cirúrgica (P < 0,05). Não houve diferença quanto ao número de hemácias e às reações para nitrito e leucocitesterase, entre as amostras. CONCLUSÃO: Houve bacteriúria em 13,7% das amostras pré-operatórias, sendo identificadas bactérias Gram-negativas sensíveis à maioria dos antibióticos. Não foi observado crescimento bacteriano nas amostras pós-operatórias. A urinálise mostrou somente redução significativa da leucocitúria no pós-operatório.

PURPOSE: To identify the impact of urinary incontinence (UI) on quality of life (QoL), to compare the scores of QoL domains in women with stress urinary incontinence (SUI), overactive bladder (OAB) and mixed incontinence (MUI) and to establish the association between the clinical type of UI and the impact on QoL. METHODS: Data of 181 incontinent women attended at a public hospital were collected regarding age, body mass index (BMI) and co-morbidities. King's Health Questionnaire (KHQ) was applied and patients were classified into two groups according to the self-assessment of incontinence impact. KHQ scores were compared by the Mann-Whitney test. Depending on their urinary symptoms, women were divided into SUI, OAB and MUI groups and their scores in the KHQ domains were compared by the Kruskal-Wallis and Dunn tests. The odds ratio (OR) of a woman reporting a worse effect of UI on QoL was estimated using the binary logistic model. The control variables were: age, BMI and number of co-morbidities. RESULTS: A significant difference was found between the two groups of self-assessment of UI impact for all KHQ domains. The MUI group showed worse scores than the SUI group for all domains, and OAB group, for limitation of physical and daily activities. There was a significant difference between the odds of the women in the SUI and MUI groups reporting worse effects of UI on QoL (OR=2.9; p=0.02). CONCLUSION: As reported at other reference services, MUI was the most commom type, and urinary loss had a moderate/major impact on QoL, affecting mainly role limitations domain. The adjusted analysis showed that women with MUI had almost three times greater odds of reporting worse impact on QoL than women with SUI.

Identificar o impacto da incontinência urinária (IU) sobre a qualidade de vida (QV), comparar os escores dos domínios de QV em mulheres com incontinência de esforço (IUE), bexiga hiperativa (BH) e incontinência mista (IUM) e estabelecer a associação entre o tipo clínico de IU e o impacto sobre a QV. Foram coletadas informações sobre idade, índice de massa corpórea (IMC) e comorbidades de 181 mulheres incontinentes atendidas em serviço público. O Observou-se diferença significante entre os dois grupos de autoavaliação do impacto da IU para todos os domínios do KHQ. O grupo IUM apresentou piores escores que o grupo IUE para todos os domínios, e o grupo BH, para limitações de atividades diárias e físicas. Houve diferença significante entre as chances de as mulheres dos grupos IUE e IUM reportarem pior impacto de IU na QV (OR=2,9; p=0,02). Assim como em outras populações de serviços especializados, a IUM foi o subtipo mais comum, e a perda urinária comprometeu de forma moderada/grave a QV, afetando o domínio limitações das atividades diárias com maior intensidade. A análise ajustada mostrou que mulheres com IUM apresentam chance aproximadamente três vezes maior de reportarem pior impacto sobre ...

Foreign bodies in the knee joint are uncommon, particularly those not related to surgical procedures. In this paper, we present a case of an intraosseous metallic foreign body situated in the medial femoral condyle for one year, causing pain, which was removed with complete resolution of the symptoms.
RESUMO
INTRODUCTION: Medical personnel in trauma centres in several countries have realised that undiagnosed injuries are common and are now focussing their attention on reducing the incidence of these injuries. Tertiary survey is a simple and easy approach to address the issue of undiagnosed injuries in trauma patients. Tertiary survey consists of reevaluating patients 24 hours after admission by means of an anamnesis protocol, physical examination, review of complementary tests and request for new tests when necessary. OBJECTIVE: To show the importance of tertiary survey in trauma patients for diagnosing injuries undetected at the time of initial survey. METHODS: A standardised protocol was used to perform a prospective observational study with patients admitted through the emergency department, Department of Orthopaedics and Trauma, Santa Casa de São Paulo. The patients were reevaluated 24 hours after admission or after recovering consciousness. New physical examinations were performed, tests performed on admission were reassessed and new tests were requested, when necessary. RESULTS: Between February 2012 and February 2013, 526 patients were evaluated, 81 (15.4%) were polytraumatised, and 445 (84.6%) had low-energy trauma. A total of 57 new injuries were diagnosed in 40 patients, 61.4% of which affected the lower limb. Diagnosis of 11 new injuries (19.3%) resulted in changes in procedure. CONCLUSION: The application of the protocol for tertiary survey proved to be easy, inexpensive and beneficial to patients (particularly polytraumatised patients) because it enabled identification of important injuries that were not detected on admission in a large group of patients.
