AIMS: This work aimed to evaluate the antibacterial and antifungal activities of two types of pyroligneous acid (PA) obtained from slow pyrolysis of wood of Mimosa tenuiflora and of a hybrid of Eucalyptus urophylla × Eucalyptus grandis. METHODS AND RESULTS: Wood wedges were carbonized on a heating rate of 1·25°C min-1 until 450°C. Pyrolysis smoke was trapped and condensed to yield liquid products. Crude pyrolysis liquids were bidistilled under 5 mmHg vacuum yielding purified PA. Multi-antibiotic-resistant strains of Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa (ATCC 27853) and Staphylococcus aureus (ATCC 25923) had their sensitivity to PA evaluated using agar diffusion test. Two yeasts were evaluated as well, Candida albicans (ATCC 10231) and Cryptococcus neoformans. GC-MS analysis of both PAs was carried out to obtain their chemical composition. Regression analysis was performed, and models were adjusted, with diameter of inhibition halos and PA concentration (100, 50 and 20%) as parameters. Identity of regression models and equality of parameters in polynomial orthogonal equations were verified. Inhibition halos were observed in the range 15-25 mm of diameter. CONCLUSIONS: All micro-organisms were inhibited by both types of PA even in the lowest concentration of 20%. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY: The feasibility of the usage of PAs produced with wood species planted in large scale in Brazil was evident and the real potential as a basis to produce natural antibacterial and antifungal agents, with real possibility to be used in veterinary and zootechnical applications.

BACKGROUND: Congenital rubella syndrome (CRS) case identification is challenging in older children since laboratory markers of congenital rubella virus (RUBV) infection do not persist beyond age 12 months. METHODS: We enrolled children with CRS born between 1998 and 2003 and compared their immune responses to RUBV with those of their mothers and a group of similarly aged children without CRS. Demographic data and sera were collected. Sera were tested for anti-RUBV immunoglobulin G (IgG), IgG avidity, and IgG response to the 3 viral structural proteins (E1, E2, and C), reflected by immunoblot fluorescent signals. RESULTS: We enrolled 32 children with CRS, 31 mothers, and 62 children without CRS. The immunoblot signal strength to C and the ratio of the C signal to the RUBV-specific IgG concentration were higher (P < .029 for both) and the ratio of the E1 signal to the RUBV-specific IgG concentration lower (P = .001) in children with CRS, compared with their mothers. Compared with children without CRS, children with CRS had more RUBV-specific IgG (P < .001), a stronger C signal (P < .001), and a stronger E2 signal (P ≤ .001). Two classification rules for children with versus children without CRS gave 100% specificity with >65% sensitivity. CONCLUSIONS: This study was the first to establish classification rules for identifying CRS in school-aged children, using laboratory biomarkers. These biomarkers should allow improved burden of disease estimates and monitoring of CRS control programs.

OBJECTIVE: To demonstrate the protocol and experience of our service in the nonoperative management (NOM) of grade IV blunt splenic injuries. METHODS: This is a retrospective study based on trauma registry of a university hospital between 1990-2010. Charts of all patients with splenic injury were reviewed and patients with grade IV lesions treated nonoperatively were included in the study. RESULTS: ninety-four patients with grade IV blunt splenic injury were admitted during this period. Twenty-six (27.6%) met the inclusion criteria for NOM. The average systolic blood pressure on admission was 113.07 ± 22.22 mmHg, RTS 7.66 ± 0.49 and ISS 18.34 ± 3.90. Ten patients (38.5%) required blood transfusion, with a mean of 1.92 ± 1.77 packed red cells per patient. Associated abdominal injuries were present in two patients (7.7%). NOM failed in two patients (7.7%), operated on due to worsening of abdominal pain and hypovolemic shock. No patient developed complications related to the spleen and there were no deaths in this series. Average length of hospital stay was 7.12 ± 1.98 days. CONCLUSION: Nonoperative treatment of grade IV splenic injuries in blunt abdominal trauma is safe when a rigid protocol is followed.

WHAT IS KNOWN AND OBJECTIVE: Anti-tuberculosis drugs (ATD), although highly effective, often cause liver injury. Glutathione S-transferases (GST) play a crucial protective role in the detoxifying mechanisms of drugs. Several studies have investigated the genetic null variants of GSTM1 and GSTT1 as possible risk factors for ATD-induced liver injury; however, those findings are inconsistent. We investigated GSTM1 and GSTT1 null genotypes in Brazilian patients with tuberculosis (TB), adjusting for other possible predictors of ATD-induced liver injury. METHODS: This was a prospective cohort study with patients who were treated for TB from 2006 to 2011. GSTM1 and GSTT1 gene deletions were analysed from genomic DNA by polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Demographic, clinical and laboratory data were extracted from medical records and possible predictors of liver injury were evaluated. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION: This study enrolled 177 patients. Anti-tuberculosis drugs-induced liver injury incidence was 33.3%. Hepatitis B infection (HBV) and increased alanine aminotransferase (ALT) baseline were significant predictors. Neither GSTM1 nor GSTT1 null genotypes were associated with ATD-induced liver injury; nevertheless, the comparison among four different liver toxicity grades showed that GSTM1 non-null genotype was significant more frequent among the higher grades of liver toxicity. WHAT IS NEW AND CONCLUSION: GSTM1 and GSTT1 null genotypes do not seem to play important roles in ATD-induced liver injury in Brazilians. However, there was evidence that GSTM1 polymorphisms were possibly related to the intensity of toxicity. Active HBV and initial high ALT could predict ATD-induced liver injury.

OBJECTIVES: Patients with diffuse cutaneous systemic sclerosis (dcSSc) have distinct clinical manifestations, usually with more aggressive organ involvement and highermortality than limited cutaneous systemic sclerosis (lcSSC). Hearing loss had not yet been evaluated in this subtype, so our aim was to assess the auditory system of dcSSc patients in a controlled study. METHODS: Twenty-six patients with dcSSc, according to American College of Rheumatology (ACR) criteria, were evaluated. For each dcSSc patient included in the study, two healthy controls were matched for sex and age (± 2 years). All patients responded to a structured questionnaire regarding otological symptoms and risk factors with regard to hearing loss. A complete ear/nose/throat physical examination was performed followed by speech/pure tone audiometry and impedance measurements. RESULTS: The mean age of the dcSSc patients was 47.0 ± 11.9 years; the mean disease duration was 9.4 ± 9.1 years, and there was a clear female predominance (83%). The questionnaire revealed auditory complaints in 54% of the dcSSc patients (25% hearing loss, 21% aural fullness, 21% tinnitus, and 21% dizziness) and normal otoscopy. Nearly half (46%) of the dcSSc patients were diagnosed as having hearing loss on audiogram compared to only 19% in the control group (p = 0.01). All dcSSc with hearing loss had a sensorineural component, eight (73%) with excellent discrimination on the Percentage Index of Speech Recognition (PISR). Descending configuration and Metz recruitment were observed in 54% of these patients, suggesting cochlear involvement. CONCLUSION: Patients with dcSSc have a high prevalence of sensorineural audiometric hearing impairment and otological complaints, suggesting that the cochlea is an additional target organ in this disease.

BACKGROUND & AIM: Many disease outbreaks of food origin are caused by foods prepared in Food Service and Nutrition Units of hospitals, affecting hospitalized patients who, in most cases, are immunocompromised and therefore at a higher risk of severe worsening of their clinical status. The aim of this study was to determine the variations in temperature and the time-temperature factor of hospital diets. METHODS: The time and temperature for the preparation of 4 diets of modified consistency were determined on 5 nonconsecutive days in a hospital Diet and Nutrition Unit at the end of preparation and during the maintenance period, portioning and distribution at 3 sites, i.e., the first, the middle and the last to receive the diets. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION: All foods reached an adequate temperature at the end of cooking, but temperature varied significantly from the maintenance period to the final distribution, characterizing critical periods for microorganism proliferation. During holding, temperatures that presented a risk were reached by 16.7% of the meats and 59% of the salads of the general diet, by 16.7% of the garnishes in the bland diet and by 20% of the meats and garnishes in the viscous diet. The same occurred at the end of distribution for 100% of the hot samples and of the salads and for 61% of the desserts. None of the preparations remained at risk temperature for a time exceeding that established by law. CONCLUSION: The exposure to inadequate temperature did not last long enough to pose risks to the patient.

BACKGROUND: Liver toxicity due to tuberculosis (TB) treatment is a frequent cause of treatment interruption, and may sometimes lead to a change in therapy to a less potent regimen. OBJECTIVE: To estimate the risk of hepatotoxicity in patients with or without hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection receiving TB treatment and to develop a clinical prediction rule. DESIGN: A prospective observational follow-up was conducted. Data from 154 patients who underwent TB treatment were analysed. Crude risk ratios were estimated and a Cox proportional hazards model was fit. RESULTS: The mean follow-up time was 187 days. Crude risk ratios showed that ethnicity, human immunodeficiency virus infection, multiple sexual partners, highly active antiretroviral treatment, and clinical forms of TB were possible predictors of liver toxicity. HBV infection and other sexually transmitted diseases showed considerable relative risk, although not statistically significant. The Cox proportional hazards model identified the following predictors of hepatotoxicity: White ethnicity, multiple sexual partners, high baseline alanine transferase and clinical forms of TB. Active HBV, indicated by the detection of surface antigen HBV, could predict hepatotoxicity, although with low precision. CONCLUSION: Using this information, we were able to apply a score and draw a nomogram to estimate survival probabilities and median times to event for each patient.

Evaluating the ability to rectify and maintain lumbar adjustment can contribute toward the understanding of the behavior of abdominal muscles and their participation in the stability of pelvic muscles in dancers during the posterior pelvic tilt and double straight leg lowering tests. Nine healthy volunteers (male and female ballet dancers; age mean: 25.9 +/- 7.37 years) underwent maximal isometric voluntary contraction (MIVC), isometric voluntary contraction at 50% of MIVC, posterior pelvic tilt (PPT) and double straight leg lowering (DSLL) tests. The tests were carried out in a single day, with 3 repetitions each. During the tests, electromygraphic signals of the rectus abdominis, obliquus internus and obliquus externus were recorded. The signal acquisition system was made up of bipolar surface electrodes, electrogoniometer and an electromechanic device (pressure sensor), which were connected to a signal conditioner module. Root mean square values of each muscle during the DSLL and PPT were converted into percentage of activation of 50% MIVC. Lower back pressure was submitted to the same process. ANOVA with repeated measures was performed, with the level of significance set at p < 0.05. The results revealed that all dancers were able to maintain posterior pelvic tilt and there was trend toward greater activation of the bilateral obliquus internus muscle. In an attempt to keep the pelvic region stabilized during DSLL, there was a greater contribution from the obliquus externus muscle in relation to other abdominal muscles.

A total of 730 children aged less than 7 years, attending 8 day-care centers (DCCs) in Belém, Brazil were followed-up from January to December 1997 to investigate the occurrence of human-herpes virus 6 (HHV-6) infection in these institutional settings. Between October and December 1997 there have been outbreaks of a febrile- and -exanthematous disease, affecting at least 15-20% of children in each of the DCCs. Both serum- and- plasma samples were obtained from 401 (55%) of the 730 participating children for the detection of HHV-6 antibodies by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), and viral DNA amplification through the nested-PCR. Recent HHV-6 infection was diagnosed in 63.8% (256/401) of them, as defined by the presence of both IgM and IgG-specific antibodies (IgM+/IgG+); of these, 114 (44.5%) were symptomatic and 142 (55.5%) had no symptoms (p = 0.03). A subgroup of 123 (30.7%) children were found to be IgM-/IgG+, whereas the remaining 22 (5.5%) children had neither IgM nor IgG HHV-6- antibodies (IgM-/IgG-). Of the 118 children reacting strongly IgM-positive (> or = 30 PANBIO units), 26 (22.0%) were found to harbour the HHV-6 DNA, as demonstrated by nested-PCR. Taken the ELISA-IgM- and- nested PCR-positive results together, HHV-6 infection was shown to have occurred in 5 of the 8 DCCs under follow-up. Serological evidence of recent infections by Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) and parvovirus B19 were identified in 2.0% (8/401) and 1. 5% (6/401) of the children, respectively. Our data provide strong evidence that HHV-6 is a common cause of outbreaks of febrile/exanthematous diseases among children attending DCCs in the Belém area.

CONTEXT: The Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) is a ubiquitous microorganism strongly associated with lymphoproliferative disorders and a large number of human neoplasms, mainly undifferentiated nasopharyngeal carcinoma and Burkitt lymphoma. The viral DNA has been detected in other tumors, such as carcinomas from tonsil, salivary glands, and thymus, and malignancies of the female genital tract. Some authors have proposed that EBV could play a role in the carcinogenesis of cervical tumors; however, other studies do not support this hypothesis. OBJECTIVE: To assess whether EBV is associated with female genital tract neoplasms. DESIGN: Sixty-five biopsy specimens (5 in situ carcinomas, 24 invasive squamous cell carcinomas, 6 lymphoepithelioma-like carcinomas, and 30 endocervical adenocarcinomas) were used to perform EBV detection through RNA in situ hybridization. RESULTS: None of the cervical carcinoma cases studied was positive for EBV infection. CONCLUSIONS: The results suggest that it is still premature to incriminate EBV in the carcinogenesis of cervical carcinoma.

It was studied the prevalence of human papillomavirus (HPV) among 228 women with lesions of uterine cervix attending the Ofir Loiola Institute, in Belem, Para, from March 1992 to May 1996. Histopathological examination was performed with all cervical biopsy samples obtained from these patients. In addition, specimens were analysed by both polimerase chain reaction and dot-blot hybridization to detect HPV DNA. The patients were assigned to three groups, according to the diagnosis made by histopathology, as follows: A, including 155 women suffering from invasive epidermoid carcinoma or adenocarcinoma; B, 54 patients having either cervical intraepithelial neoplasia grade II or III; and C, involving 19 women with chronic cervicitis. The prevalence rates of HPV in groups A, B and C were 70.3%, 63% and 36.8% respectively. HPV 16 accounted for 60.4% and 54.5% of types identified in groups A and B, respectively. Altogether HPV types 16, 18 and 33 were detected in 71.4% of positive patients belonging to group C.

From November 1992 to November 1994 stool samples were obtained from 237 children admitted to a public hospital in Belém. Rotaviruses were detected in 19.3 per cent (60/310) of faecal samples. Of these, 32.1 per cent (18/56), 20.9 per cent (38/181), and 5.4 per cent (4/73) were recorded in cases of nosocomial diarrhoea, community-acquired diarrhoea, and controls, respectively. Fifty-two (86.7 per cent) of the 60 rotavirus-positive specimens were subgrouped and the G serotypes of 55 (91.7 per cent) of them were determined. Subgroups I and II were detected in 50 per cent each of the 52 subgrouped strains. G type 2 was present in 46 (83.6 per cent) of the 55 serotyped samples; serotypes G1 and (mixed) G1 and G4 were found in 14.5 per cent and 1.8 per cent, respectively, of these specimens. Viral RNA electrophoresis showed 14 distinct patterns, including 56.7 per cent (34/60) and 43.3 per cent (26/60) of long and short profiles, respectively. In 40 (66.6 per cent) of the 60 rotavirus-positive faecal samples no enteropathogens other than rotavirus were detected. There was an increased incidence of rotavirus infection from July 1993 to February 1994. The rotavirus-related episodes of diarrhoea were more severe than those of other aetiology and greater clinical severity was not related to a specific G type, subgroup, or electrophoretype.

A new series 5-thio aryl pyrazole derivatives were proposed aiming analgesic activity. In this work, 8 new compounds of this class were synthesized using usual synthetic methodology, having as key intermediate the 3-methyl-4-nitro-5-chloropyrazole-1-phenyl derivative and subsequent reaction with several nucleophiles sulfides. Pharmacological evaluation of this series showed analgesic activity in the some extent in especially for 5-(4-bromophenyl)-thio-3-methyl-4-nitro-1-phenylpyrazole which was the most potent in this series, presenting an analgesic action comparable to that show by dipyrone.
