RESUMO

OBJECTIVES: This study aimed to develop and evaluate resin-based antibacterial materials incorporating carvone for restorative dentistry. The objectives included assessing antimicrobial activity, conversion degree, mechanical properties, hydrolytic and hygroscopic behavior, cytotoxicity, among others. METHODOLOGY: Carvone was incorporated into resin-based materials following established protocols. Antimicrobial activity was evaluated against S. Aureus. Conversion degree, polimerization kinetics, mechanical properties, hydrolytic and hygroscopic behavior, cytotoxicity, and other properties were assessed using standardized tests and methodologies. RESULTS: Carvone-incorporated materials demonstrated significant antimicrobial activity, minimal changes in conversion degree, comparable mechanical properties, improved hydrolytic and hygroscopic behavior, and lack of cytotoxicity. Antimicrobial resins were obtained due to the hydrophobic nature of carvone and its ability to diffuse through the cell walls of microorganisms, causing membrane damage. The polymerization process yielded successful conversion, ensuring adequate material performance. SIGNIFICANCE: This study showcases that incorporating carvone into methacrylate-based resins can confer antimicrobial properties while preserving key material attributes. Antimicrobial activity against S. aureus is achieved without cytotoxicity in human fibroblasts. While flexural properties are affected only at carvone concentrations exceeding 9%, conversion degree and polymerization kinetics remain stable, except for a specific experimental formulation. These findings highlight the balanced integration of carvone. However, further work, including assessing antimicrobial performance against specific strains like S. Mutans and/or C. Albicans, and evaluating long-term effectiveness, is essential to establish the potential of these materials for dental restorations.

RESUMO

This work reports the synthesis of a monomer 2-((2-(3-(prop-1-en-2-yl)phenyl)propan-2-yl)carbamoyl)oxy)ethyl methacrylate (MVTPM) and the evaluation of its performance as an additive in the formulation of Bis-GMA/TEGDMA based composite resins. Experimental composite resins formulated with the MVTPM monomer were compared with a control reference. Double bond conversion, polymerization kinetics, shrinkage and associated stress, sorption, and aqueous solubility, cell viability, as well as mechanical properties were evaluated according to international measurements standards. The experimental composite resins show comparable mechanical properties with the control reference and improvements in other properties, such as better hydrolytic and hygroscopic behavior and lower shrinkage stress, are reported. This makes MVTPM monomer potentially useful in the formulation of dental composite resins.

RESUMO

Gastrointestinal Stromal Sarcomas (GIST) are mesenchymal neoplasms whose incidence accounts for 1-2% of digestive tumors, being located in the stomach (55-60%) and small intestine (30%). The advances in its knowledge and management succeeded in the last years have being spectacular. This review aims to summarize the most important of them for surgeons. We identified four areas of interest: molecular oncology, laparoscopic approach, management of GIST located at unusual locations, and management of advanced GIST. Advances in the field of molecular oncology lead to the discovery of new oncogenic mutations making the term Wil Type GIST obsolete. Moreover, these advances allow for the development of 2 new drugs: Avapritinib and Ripretinib, that added to the previous 3 commercially available drugs (imatinib, sunitinib and regorafenib) make possible the management of GIST with resistant mutations. The principles of the surgical management of primary GIST are well stablished which laparoscopic approach must accomplish. This approach is limited by 2 main factors: location and size. The diagnosis of GIST in unusual locations as esophagus, duodenum, rectum of out of the gastrointestinal tract (EGIST), implies an extraordinary therapeutic challenge, being imperative to manage them by surgeons and oncologist among others in the setting of a multidisciplinary team. The management of advanced/metastatic GIST has changed in a revolutionary fashion because surgery is now part of its treatment as adjuvant to tyrosine kinase inhibitors.


Los tumores del estroma gastrointestinal (GIST) suponen el 1-2% de los tumores digestivos, siendo su localización más frecuente el estómago (55-60%) y el intestino delgado (30%). Los avances más importantes sucedidos en los últimos años se centran en cuatro áreas: biología molecular, abordaje quirúrgico laparoscópico, manejo técnico del GIST en localizaciones inusuales y tratamiento e integración de la cirugía en el manejo del GIST avanzado. Los avances en el conocimiento de la biología molecular del GIST han dado lugar a la progresiva identificación de nueva mutaciones oncogénicas que hacen del concepto wild type obsoleto. Estos avances han permitido el desarrollo de dos nuevos fármacos, avapritinib y ripretinib, lo que permite el tratamiento de pacientes con mutaciones resistentes a las tres líneas terapéuticas clásicas. El tratamiento quirúrgico del GIST se rige por unos principios técnicos bien establecidos que el abordaje laparoscópico debe cumplir, abordaje que queda limitado por dos factores clave: localización y tamaño. El GIST de localización infrecuente (esófago, duodeno o recto, o extradigestivo) supone un reto terapéutico. Estos pacientes deben ser manejados en un contexto multidisciplinario. La cirugía queda integrada en el manejo del GIST avanzado, considerándose como adyuvante a los inhibidores de la tirosina cinasa.

RESUMO

Advanced Chronic Kidney Disease (ACKD) supposes a public health problem in Ecuador that requires a comprehensive approach. In view of the scarcity of studies on the subject in this country, the objective of this research was to determine the signs and symptoms associated with the patients' physical, social and psychological spheres that allow properly developing palliative care. A longitudinal, prospective and observational study was conducted with ACKD patients. In order to assess the symptomatic burden and suffering of these patients, the Edmonton Symptom Assessment System Revised: renal (ESAS-r) for renal patients and the Distress Thermometer (DT) were used. The sample consisted of a total of 246 patients. The most common symptoms that affect them, causing them suffering in their daily lives, are those related to well-being, difficulty falling asleep and itching. It is necessary that health professionals adapt care measures and help patients undergoing renal treatment, especially those who have suffered the disease for a longer period of time, in order to alleviate the patients' suffering and therefore improve their daily lives. To such an end, a care plan could be designed that includes early palliative care.

RESUMO

This study aimed to identify countries' cultural values associated with the importance given to certain professional nursing values by nursing students from Spain and Colombia. Weis and Schank's Nurses Professional Values Scale-Revised (NPVS-R) in its Spanish version and the Hofstede cultural classification were used for this purpose. The sample was composed of 880 nursing students. Nursing students from both countries showed a greater importance for professional nursing values compared to evidence from other countries. Significant differences were also found in the total score, dimensions, and items, always being higher for Colombian students. Based on regression results, the impact that the academic year had on the importance given to NPVS-R is non-linear (U-inverted). Both groups of students gave the highest importance to the same group of items. Those showing the largest difference in the rankings were associated with country culture differences based on the scores identified by Hofstede. Colombian and Spanish societies present similarities in Power Distance and Uncertainty Avoidance, as well as differences in the other cultural dimensions.

RESUMO

During an entomological sampling trip in the island of São Miguel (Açores, Portugal) on 02-11-2019 by José Rafael González-López, one specimen of the invasive flatworm Obama nungara Carbayo et al. 2016 was found under a rock (Fig. 1A). The specimen was photographed in situ and identified by its external morphology based on its large and broad leaf-like body with nearly parallel body margins, narrow and rounded anterior end, rounded posterior end, and dorsal pigmentation consisting of a light brown ground color covered with dark longitudinal and irregular stripes, and ventral surface grayish-white. Recent studies (Justine et al. 2020; Negrete et al. 2020) showed the reliability of photograph-based identification of O. nungara specimens. It is the sixth island where this species has been found (after Guernsey, Great Britain, Ireland, Corsica, and Madeira).

RESUMO

The objective of this study was to synthesize a diallyl carbonate monomer, allyl(2-(2-(((allyloxy)carbonyl)oxy)benzoyl)-5-methoxyphenyl) carbonate (BZ-AL), and to evaluate its effect as Bis-GMA diluent in the formulation of photopolymerizable dental composite resins. The chemical structure of BZ-AL monomer was determined by means of H1 NMR, C13 NMR and FTIR spectroscopies. An experimental composite comprising a mixture of Bis-GMA and BZ-AL monomers and silanized inorganic filler was formulated. Experimental material was compared with a control composite formulated with Bis-GMA/TEGDMA. Double bond conversion, polymerization kinetics, volumetric shrinkage, polymerization stress, and flexural properties were investigated. The data were analyzed through a Student t-test (α = 0.05). Flexural strength of the experimental materials with BZ-AL monomer showed a statistically significant increase (p < 0.001). The experimental composite has a lower polymerization rate than the control composite, on the other hand, the experimental composite resin has the highest degree of double bond conversion. There are no differences in the polymerization shrinkage of the composites, however, the polymerization stress of the experimental materials was 50% lower than the control resin. Finally, the cell viability test showed that the experimental resins formulated with the BZ-AL monomer was not cytotoxic. Due to its characteristics, BZ-AL monomer is potentially useful for the formulation of composite materials with applications in dentistry.

RESUMO

Two liquid monomers (CT-AL and CT-ACR) were synthesized from the acylation of tert-butyl catechol with different acid chlorides. The monomers were used to prepare photopolymerizable dental composite for completely replacing TEGDMA. Properties such as flexural strength, modulus of elasticity, degree of double bond conversion, polymerization shrinkage, as well as the polymerization stress were studied. Also, color alteration, translucency, and cytotoxicity were evaluated. The results show that the experimental materials formulated with CT-AL and CT-ACR have similar mechanical properties to a control material formulated with BisGMA/TEGDMA, similar polymerization shrinkage, and less polymerization stress. The composite formulated with the CT-AL monomer shows a similar degree of conversion (72%), while the composite formulated with the CT-ACR monomer has a degree of conversion lower (58%) than the control resin (71%). These results suggest that both monomers could have potential applications in the formulation of composites for dental restorations.

RESUMO

Nursing students are going to be professionals in the near future, and as carers, it will be essential for them to behave in a way that will allow them to have a positive influence on the health of others as well as their own health. The objective of this study was to evaluate the lifestyles of first-year nursing students of 2 universities (one in Spain and the other in Colombia). A cross-sectional descriptive study design using validated surveys was adopted. A sample of 140 nursing students enrolled in 2014 in their first year of 2 universities (Seville in Spain, n = 37, and Antioquia in Colombia, n = 93) self-reported the FANTASTICO Lifestyle checklist. Findings reveal that (1) the lifestyles are not appropriate in 1 of 3 of nursing students in both universities and (2) there are statistically significant differences for family items, positive thinkers, the use of safety belts, and alcohol consumption before driving. A high proportion of the study's participants have inappropriate lifestyles that involve risks for the deferred development of chronic diseases. It is necessary for universities to develop educational interventions in the design of nursing degrees to strengthen healthy behaviours during training.

RESUMO

Objective.To assess the lifestyles of nursing students from a Colombian public university. Methods. A cross-sectional study was conducted in 2014. 380 students answered by self-reporting the adapted version in Spanish of FANTASTIC Lifestyles Assessment Questionnaire of Wilson and Ciliska. Results. Lifestyles were poor in 9.2%, fair in 31.3%, good in 53.7%, and excellent in only 5.8% of the participants. Statistically-significant differences of the total mean score were not found when comparing with gender, age group, and course year, but were detected in two domains by gender: a) physical activity (higher score in men) and b) cigarette smoking (higher score in women). Conclusion. An important proportion of our nursing students has inadequate lifestyles, which means deferred risks for the development of chronic diseases. Universities should promote the training of the future professionals in nursing with knowledge and skills aimed at healthy lifestyles.


Objetivo.Evaluar los estilos de vida de los estudiantes de Enfermería de una universidad pública colombiana. Métodos. Se realizó un estudio descriptivo de tipo trasversal en 2014. 380 alumnos por autorreporte contestaron el FANTASTIC Lifestyle Assessment Questionnaire, versión adaptada al español. Resultados. La puntuación de los estilos de vida fue bajo en el 9.2%; en el 31.3%, regular; en el 53.7%, bueno y solo en el 5.8%, fantástico. No se detectaron diferencias estadísticamente significativas del promedio de la puntuación total cuando se comparó con sexo, grupo etario y año de curso, pero en sí en dos dominios del cuestionario: actividad física (puntuación mayor en hombres que mujeres) y b) consumo de tabaco (promedio de puntuación mayor mujeres que en hombres). Conclusión. Una proporción importante de alumnos de Enfermería de la universidad pública estudiada tiene inadecuados estilos de vida, lo que significa riesgos aplazados para el desarrollo de enfermedades crónicas. Las universidades tienen el deber de promover en los futuros enfermeros los conocimientos y destrezas orientados a estilos de vida saludables.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: This work sought to describe the use of health services by adult Latin American immigrants from Seville. METHODOLOGY: This was a descriptive cohort study with the participation of 190 adult Latin American immigrants from 25 to 44 years of age, residing in the city of Seville (Spain) in 2011. A self-report survey was applied. RESULTS: Within the past year, 67% of the individuals have visited a physician and 23% have attended nursing consultation. A total of 14% of the immigrants who called on a healthcare center reported that their experience was worse than that of others. La annual prevalence by accidents was: 10% domestic, 4% traffic-related and 9% occupational; nearly half these accidents justified emergency care or hospitalization due to their severity. The logistic regression model revealed that health services were used mostly by: women, those in poor self-perceived health status, those with secondary level of education, the elderly, and those who were single. CONCLUSION: The population studied presents adequate use of health services, although it would be recommendable to implement prevention activities by nurses in the immigrant's work and family environment to reduce the accident incidence described by this group.

RESUMO

Objetivo: caracterizar los traumas abdominales atendidos en la Clínica Multiperfil. Luanda, Angola en el periodo de enero del 2010 a junio del 2012. Métodos: se realizó un estudio descriptivo prospectivo y transversal en 147 pacientes que presentaron traumatismo abdominal, atendidos en la Clínica Multiperfil, Luanda, Angola. Resultados: se clasificó el trauma abdominal en abierto (38 porciento) y cerrado (61,9 porciento) con predominio de este último. Los órganos más afectados, fueron el hígado para el 37,6 porciento seguido por el intestino delgado, con el 25,8 porciento. Se empleó la conducta quirúrgica a un total de 57,1 porciento de los casos, de ellos un 36,7 porciento forman parte del trauma abierto. Se realizó laparotomía terapéutica en el 39,4 porciento de los pacientes, seguido de la cirugía de control de daños (14,2 porciento). Predominó el shock hipovolémico en un 17 porciento. Fallecieron un total de 12,2 porciento pacientes y en las primeras 24 horas un 5,4 porciento de este. Con un predominio en los casos mayores de 50 años (66,6 porciento) con signos de shock al ingreso (100 porciento). Un GCS inferior a 8 (88,8 porciento), y la ISS mas de 25 (100 porciento). Conclusiones: el trauma abdominal es frecuente en la población de Luanda, su diagnóstico y tratamiento resulta difícil por la variedad y número de lesiones, presentando ocasionalmente complicaciones fatales que repercuten en la mortalidad(AU)


Objective: To characterize abdominal trauma treated at Multiperfil Clinic in Luanda, Angola, from January 2010 to June 2012. Methods: A descriptive, prospective and cross-sectional study was performed in 147 patients with abdominal trauma, who were admitted to Multiperfil Clinic in Luanda, Angola from January 2010 to June 2012. Results: The abdominal trauma was classified into open (38 percent) and closed (61.9 percent), being the last one predominant. The most affected organs were liver (37.6 percent) followed by the small intestine( 25.8 percent). The surgical procedure was applied to 57.1 percent of patients of whom 36.7 percent suffered open traumas. Therapeutic laparotomy was performed in 39.4 percent of cases, followed by damage control surgery in 14.2 percent. Hypovolemic shock prevailed (17 percent); 12.2 percent of patients died and 5.4 percent of this amount within the first 24 hours. Especially in older than 50 years (66.6 percent) with signs of shock at admission (100 percent) a GCS less than 8 (88.8 percent), and the ISS over 25 (100 percent). Conclusions: Abdominal trauma is common in the population of Luanda; diagnosis and treatment are difficult because of the variety and number of lesions, presenting occasionally fatal complications that have an impact on the mortality rate(AU)

Objective: To characterize abdominal trauma treated at Multiperfil Clinic in Luanda, Angola, from January 2010 to June 2012. Methods: A descriptive, prospective and cross-sectional study was performed in 147 patients with abdominal trauma, who were admitted to Multiperfil Clinic in Luanda, Angola from January 2010 to June 2012. Results: The abdominal trauma was classified into open (38 percent) and closed (61.9 percent), being the last one predominant. The most affected organs were liver (37.6 percent) followed by the small intestine( 25.8 percent). The surgical procedure was applied to 57.1 percent of patients of whom 36.7 percent suffered open traumas. Therapeutic laparotomy was performed in 39.4 percent of cases, followed by damage control surgery in 14.2 percent. Hypovolemic shock prevailed (17 percent); 12.2 percent of patients died and 5.4 percent of this amount within the first 24 hours. Especially in older than 50 years (66.6 percent) with signs of shock at admission (100 percent) a GCS less than 8 (88.8 percent), and the ISS over 25 (100 percent). Conclusions: Abdominal trauma is common in the population of Luanda; diagnosis and treatment are difficult because of the variety and number of lesions, presenting occasionally fatal complications that have an impact on the mortality rate(AU)

RESUMO

In order to estimate the prevalence of self-reported risk factors and cardiovascular events in an adult immigrant Latin American population of District 2 (Macarena) in Seville, we conducted a pilot study using cross-sectional descriptive research. We used an anonymous questionnaire with self-reported risk factors and cardiovascular events. 34 people participated (18% of the sample); mean age: 31.8 years, mean residence: 6.5 years, women: 52.9%. Prevalence of risk factors: diabetes 8.8%, high cholesterol 14.7% and high blood pressure 23.5%. Prevalence of coronary events was 8.8%; angina pectoris, myocardial infarction and stroke, 2.9% each. The conclusion is that self-reported prevalence of cardiovascular events was higher than in the literature, this issue deserving the attention of health agencies. This knowledge should be considered by nurses to develop culturally appropriate care plans of the context of immigrants.

RESUMO

Con la finalidad de estimar la prevalencia por autorreporte de factores de riesgo y eventos cardiovasculares en población latinoamericana inmigrante adulta del Distrito 2 (Macarena) de Sevilla, se realizó un estudio piloto de investigación descriptiva de corte transversal. Fue utilizado un cuestionario anónimo con autorreporte de factores de riesgo y eventos cardiovasculares. Resultados: participaron 34 personas, (18% de la muestra), media etaria: 31,8 años, residencia media: 6,5 años, mujeres: 52,9%. Prevalencias de factores de riesgo: 8,8% diabetes, 14,7% colesterol elevado y 23,5% hipertensión arterial. Prevalencia de eventos coronarios corresponde a 8,8%: angina de pecho, infarto de miocardio y accidente cerebrovascular: 2,9% para ambos. Se concluye en que la prevalencia de eventos cardiovasculares autorreportados supera la mencionada en la literatura, mereciendo este asunto la atención de los organismos sanitarios. Este dato debe ser tenido en cuenta por enfermería para elaborar planes de cuidados adaptados culturalmente al contexto de este colectivo inmigrante.

RESUMO

To estimate the prevalence of alcohol, tobacco and illicit drug consumption (through the self-report) in adult Latin-American immigrants of Seville, a cross-sectional descriptive study was carried out in a representative sample of 190 immigrants. The results showed that 61.4% of the participants had consumed alcohol in previous month before data collection, although 13.2% of them were at risk of alcoholism. Moreover, 30.0% were smokers. In addition, 5.3% of the interviewed people had consumed illicit psychoactive substances in the previous six months (Marihuana: 3.7%, hashish: 1.1% and cocaine: 0.5%). For all substances under analysis, the consumption prevalence was much higher in men from 25 to 39 years of age. In conclusion, prevalence levels of this consumption were high among the studied immigrants. Nurses could train the population in the prevention of these risk behaviors through preventive practices.
