RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the extent of extraskeletal manifestations along with inpatient outcomes and complications associated with osteogenesis imperfecta (OI). STUDY DESIGN: This cross-sectional study utilized the Kids' Inpatient Database as a part of the Healthcare Cost and Utilization Project to investigate inpatient hospital outcomes and management in patients with OI from 1997 through 2016. Data regarding hospital characteristics, cost of treatment, inpatient outcomes, and procedures were collected and analyzed. RESULTS: There were 7291 admissions that listed OI as a diagnosis in the Kids' Inpatient Database from 1997 through 2016. Unexpectedly, more than one-third of all admissions in these children with OI presented with an extraskeletal manifestation. The rate of major complications was 3.85%. The rate of minor complications was 19.4%, most commonly respiratory problems. The mortality rate was 18.2% in the neonatal period and 1.0% in all other admissions. Total charges of hospital stay increased over the years. CONCLUSIONS: We identified a striking prevalence of extraskeletal manifestations in OI along with inpatient outcomes and complications associated with OI, of which respiratory complications were predominant. We observed a significant financial burden for patients with OI and identified additional risks for financial crisis, in addition to disparities in care identified among socioeconomic groups. These data contribute to a more holistic understanding of OI from diagnosis to management.

RESUMO

Molecules sourced from marine environments hold immense promise for the development of novel therapeutic drugs, owing to their distinctive chemical compositions and valuable medicinal attributes. Notably, Talarolide A and Talaropeptides A-D have gained recent attention as potential candidates for pharmaceutical applications. This study aims to explore the chemical reactivity of Talarolide A and Talaropeptides A-D through the application of molecular modeling and computational chemistry techniques, specifically employing Conceptual Density Functional Theory (CDFT). By investigating their chemical behaviors, the study seeks to contribute to the understanding of the potential pharmacological uses of these marine-derived compounds. The molecular geometry optimizations and frequency calculations were conducted using the Density Functional Tight Binding (DFTBA) method. This was followed by a subsequent round of geometry optimization, frequency analysis, and computation of electronic properties and chemical reactivity descriptors. We employed the MN12SX/Def2TZVP/H2O model chemistry, utilizing the Gaussian 16 program and the SMD solvation model. The analysis of the global reactivity descriptors arising from CDFT was achieved as well as the graphical comparison of the dual descriptor DD revealing the areas of the molecules with more propensity to suffer a nucleophilic or electrophilic attack. Additionally, Molinspiration and SwissTargetPrediction were considered for the calculation of molecular characteristics and predicted biological targets. These include enzymes, nuclear receptors, kinase inhibitors, GPCR ligands, and ion channel modulators. The graphical results show that Talarolide A and the Talaropeptides A-D are likely to behave as protease inhibitors.

RESUMO

Abstract Introduction: Xanthogranulomatous pyelonephritis consists of a chronic infectious and inflammatory process of the renal parenchyma, a variant of chronic obstructive pyelonephritis. It is more prevalent in middle-aged adults, rare in pediatric patients, with less than 300 cases reported in children worldwide. Report: Preschooler, aged 2 years and 11 months, male, with 2 months of abdominal distention, increased temperature and intense pallor, associated with microcytic anemia refractory to the use of ferrous sulfate. 1 week before, he had a bulging in his left flank and a hard palpable mass there. Imaging exams (ultrasound and tomography) revealed an overall enlargement of the left kidney, destruction of the renal parenchyma and intense calyceal dilation, forming the "bear's paw" sign, with a staghorn calculus in the pelvis. He underwent treatment with antibiotic therapy and total nephrectomy, with a specimen sent for pathological examination. Discussion: a disease of uncertain incidence in the pediatric age group, xanthogranulomatous pyelonephritis is more prevalent in male children and affects mainly the left kidney, being frequently associated with the presence of stones. Clinically, it has nonspecific symptoms, the most common being abdominal distension and asthenia. Laboratory exams shows microcytic, leukocytosis, thrombocytosis and increased inflammation, pyuria, hematuria and proteinuria, in addition to bacterial growth in urine culture. The diagnosis is anatomopathological, but it can be hinted by contrasted CT scan, with the classical sign of the "bear's paw". Treatment may include nephrectomy and broad-spectrum antibiotic therapy.

Resumo Introdução: A pielonefrite xantogranulomatosa consiste em um processo infeccioso e inflamatório crônico do parênquima renal, variante da pielonefrite obstrutiva crônica. É mais prevalente em adultos na meia-idade, de ocorrência rara em pacientes pediátricos, com menos de 300 casos relatados em pediatria no mundo. Relato: Pré-escolar de 2 anos e 11 meses, do sexo masculino, com quadro de 2 meses de distensão e aumento da temperatura abdominal e palidez intensa, associado a anemia microcítica refratária ao uso de sulfato ferroso. Apresentava ainda, havia 1 semana da internação, abaulamento em região do flanco esquerdo e massa palpável, de consistência endurecida. Exames de imagem (ultrassonografia e tomografia) revelaram aumento global do rim esquerdo, destruição do parênquima renal e intensa dilatação calicial formando o sinal da "pata de urso", com presença de cálculo coraliforme em pelve. Submetido a tratamento com antibioticoterapia e nefrectomia total, com produto enviado para anatomopatológico. Discussão: Doença de incidência incerta na faixa pediátrica, a pielonefrite xantogranulomatosa é mais prevalente no sexo masculino na infância e acomete principalmente o rim esquerdo, estando frequentemente associada à presença de cálculos. Clinicamente apresenta-se como quadro arrastado de sintomas inespecíficos, sendo os mais comuns distensão abdominal e astenia. Laboratorialmente, apresenta-se com anemia microcítica, leucocitose, trombocitose e aumento de provas inflamatórias, piúria, hematúria e proteinúria, além de crescimento bacteriano em cultura de urina. O diagnóstico é anatomopatológico, porém pode ser sugerido pela tomografia computadorizada com contraste, que tem como sinal clássico a "pata de urso". O tratamento pode incluir nefrectomia e antibioticoterapia de amplo espectro.

RESUMO

As a continuation of our research on the chemical reactivity, pharmacokinetics and ADMET properties of cyclopeptides of marine origin with potential therapeutic abilities, in this work our already presented integrated molecular modeling protocol has been used for the study of the chemical reactivity and bioactivity properties of the Veraguamides A-G family of marine natural drugs. This protocol results from the estimation of the conceptual density functional theory (CDFT) chemical reactivity descriptors together with several chemoinformatics tools commonly considered within the process of development of new therapeutic drugs. CP-CDFT is a branch of computational chemistry and molecular modeling dedicated to the study of peptides, and it is a protocol that allows the estimation with great accuracy of the CDFT-based reactivity descriptors and the associated physical and chemical properties, which can aid in determining the ability of the studied peptides to behave as potential useful drugs. Moreover, the superiority of the MN12SX density functional over other long-range corrected density functionals for the prediction of chemical and physical properties in the presence of water as the solvent is clearly demonstrated. The research was supplemented with an investigation of the bioactivity of the molecular systems and their ADMET (absorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion, and toxicity) parameters, as is customary in medicinal chemistry. Some instances of the CDFT-based chemical reactivity descriptors' capacity to predict the pKas of peptides as well as their potential as AGE inhibitors are also shown.

RESUMO

Goats were among the first animals to be domesticated over 10,000 years ago and are part of human societies since the beginning of agriculture. Goats play a major role both in commercial farming systems and in subsistence agriculture systems, particularly in tropical, subtropical and Mediterranean regions where they are crucial for the supply of meat, milk, fibre and dung. This review concerns the Serrana breed, the most important and numerous indigenous goat breed from Portugal that was furthermore exported to other regions of the world, notably South America during the Portuguese colonization. Herein, we describe the origin and history of the breed as well as the productive performance and most common production systems. Finally, we address the local and traditional PDO (protected denomination of origin) and PGI (protected geographical indication) that are produced from these animals.

RESUMO

Este estudo buscou analisar obras e publicações latino-americanas e caribenhas sobre os efeitos do consumo de crack no ciclo reprodutivo da mulher, gravídico-puerperal e na infância. Trata-se de uma revisão integrativa norteada pela questão: quais são os efeitos do consumo de crack no ciclo reprodutivo, na fisiologia da gravidez, do parto e do puerpério, no desenvolvimento físico e neurofisiológico do embrião/feto e neurocomportamental do neonato e da criança em longo prazo? A busca foi realizada na base de dados da Literatura Latino-Americana e do Caribe em Ciências da Saúde e na Scientific Electronic Library Online por meio da palavra crack isolada e associada a outras palavras em equações de busca. Os critérios de inclusão foram: texto completo, de qualquer natureza, entre janeiro de 2010 e julho de 2020, em inglês, português e espanhol. Duplicatas, na base de dados e na biblioteca e entre a base de dados e a biblioteca, foram rejeitadas, assim como publicações indexadas inadvertidamente à palavra-chave crack. A amostra final constituiu-se por 19 artigos de um total de 825 publicações. A revisão não resultou em uma síntese que apresentasse evidências de alta qualidade sobre os efeitos do uso de crack no ciclo reprodutivo, gravídico-puerperal e na infância em longo prazo e nem sobre as razões desses efeitos e fatores interferentes. À vista disso, permanecem as evidências geradas no período anterior ao estipulado por esta revisão que indicam algum tipo de uso e de abuso de crack por mulheres/gestantes e de piores desfechos maternos, perinatais e neonatais.

This study aimed to analyze Latin American and Caribbean works and publications on the effects of crack use on the reproductive cycle of women, pregnancy, and childbirth. This is an integrative review guided by the question: what are the effects of crack use on the reproductive cycle, physiology of pregnancy, childbirth and puerperium, physical and neurophysiological development of the embryo/fetus, and neurobehavioral development of the newborn and child in the long run? The search was carried out on the database of the Latin American and Caribbean Literature in Health Sciences and in the Scientific Electronic Library Online using the word crack alone and associated with other words in search equations. Inclusion criteria were full text of any nature, between January 2010 and July 2020, in English, Portuguese, and Spanish. Duplicates, in the database and in the library and between the database and the library, were rejected, as t h e y were publications inadvertently indexed to the keyword crack. The final sample consisted of 19 articles from a total of 825 publications. The review did not result in a synthesis that presented high-quality evidence on the long-term effects of crack use on the reproductive, pregnancy-puerperal, and childhood cycles, nor on the reasons for these effects and interfering factors. Thu s, the evidence generated in the period prior to that stipulated by this review remains, indicating some type of use and abuse of crack by women/pregnant women and worse maternal, perinatal, and neonatal outcomes.

RESUMO

Data analysis in goat production, such as those related to body and scrotal measurements, indicate the productive and reproductive animal development. The current study aimed to evaluate the correlations between thoracic perimeter (TP), body length (BL), body compacity (BC), body volume (BV), and scrotal circumference (SC) with body weight (BW) in young male goats of Saanen and Boer breeds. It was used 38 Saanen and 24 Boer male goats, with age average of 7.2 ± 2.0 months. Thoracic perimeter and body length measurements were obtained using a tape measure (cm) and the live weight (kg) a mechanic scale. The variables body compacity (BC) and body volume (BV) were calculated using the equations: and . Boer breed showed live weight and body compacity higher than Saanen breed (p 0.05). The scrotal circumference presented the lowest association with body weight (p < 0.05). However, all biometric measurements showed highly significant correlations with live body (p < 0.01). In conclusion, thoracic perimeter was the main measure of body weight predictor, considering efficiency and practical aspects.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Leucaena leucocephala, as a shrub legume rich in condensed tannins, is a candidate for the integrated control of gastrointestinal parasitic pathogen nematodes. Here, we investigated the anthelmintic potential of the nutraceutical L. leucocephala, transformed into pellets, against Haemonchus contortus. RESULTS: Creole goat kids were fed an iso-nitrogenous diet of Dichantium hay with alfalfa pellets or Leucaena pellets or an alfalfa-leucaena mixture in varying ratios. The artificial infection of kids with H. contortus led to infection levels comparable to those observed in the farm environment on the basis of egg excretion. The anthelmintic activity of Leucaena, compared to alfalfa, was demonstrated by its potential to reduce egg excretions (1524 vs. 3651 eggs/g) and the larval development of excreted eggs (3.5 vs. 24%). This anthelmintic potential was reported when the ratio of Leucaena incorporation in the diet was high (50% DM intake). The voluntary dry matter intake (79.3 vs. 77.0 g Large Weigth0.75), the total tract dry matter digestion (0.585 vs. 0.620), and the growth (57.1 vs. 71.3 g/d) of kids fed Leucaena compared to alfalfa indicate that Leucaena has a high feed value. The Leucaena, even at the highest intakes in the diets, has not shown any signs of poisoning in kids. CONCLUSIONS: Leucaena fulfilled the conditions to be a good nutraceutical, and pelleting is a good method for its use.

RESUMO

La diabetes mellitus tipo 2 resulta de la combinación de resistencia a la insulina junto con inadecuada secreción de la misma. Su etiología es heterogénea, implicándose en los mismos, factores genéticos y ambientales. Su incremento ha sido significativo en las últimas décadas lo cual ha estado aparejado al incremento de la obesidad. Pudiendo existir tres formas de presentación: asintomática, sintomática y cetosis o cetoacidosis. El desarrollo acelerado de las complicaciones está dado por una disminución más rápida y progresiva de la función de las células B que caracteriza esta enfermedad en la edad pediátrica. El tratamiento incluye cambios del estilo de vida, el autocontrol de la diabetes y el tratamiento farmacológico, siendo esencial involucrar a toda la familia en el manejo de este grupo de pacientes. Solo la metformina y la insulina han sido aprobadas para su utilización en este grupo de edad. La prevención es la piedra angular para frenar la oleada de DM2 en niños y adolescentes a nivel internacional. Se basa en la identificación de los individuos en riesgo, diagnóstico precoz de estados prediabéticos y la educación, dirigida a la familia y a la comunidad

Type 2 diabetes mellitus results from the combination of insulin resistance along with inadequate secretion of it. Its etiology is heterogeneous, involving genetic and environmental factors. Its increase has been significant in recent decades which has been coupled with the increase in obesity. There may be three forms of presentation: asymptomatic, symptomatic and ketosis or ketoacidosis. The accelerated development of complications is due to a more rapid and progressive decrease in the function of the B cells that characterizes this disease in the pediatric age. The treatment includes lifestyle changes, diabetes self-control and drug treatment, being essential to involve the whole family in the management of this group of patients. Only metformin and insulin have been approved for use in this age group. Prevention is the cornerstone to curb the surge of DM2 in children and adolescents internationally. It is based on the identification of individuals at risk, early diagnosis of prediabetic states and education, aimed at the family and the community

RESUMO

SUMMARY OBJECTIVE To present scientific evidence based on a systematic literature review (PRISMA) evaluating the association of Kawasaki Disease (DK) and COVID-19 in children. METHODS For the selection of studies, a combination based on the Medical Subject Heading Terms (MeSH) was used. The Medline (Pubmed), LILACS, SciELO, COCHRANE, and BIREME databases were used. The search period for the articles comprised the last 10 years (2010 to 2020). RESULTS 840 articles with potential for inclusion were retrieved, one of which met the inclusion criteria and the guiding question that consisted of evaluating the association of Kawasaki disease and COVID-19 in children. CONCLUSION A significant increase in the incidence of Kawasaki-type diseases after the onset of the epidemic has been reported, suggesting an association between the COVID-19 epidemic and the high incidence of a severe form of KD. However, further studies are needed to conduct an investigation of the association between these two diseases.

Considerações Finais: os cuidados realizados pelas famílias no domicílio, nos países estudados, são mais complexos que no Brasil, e a conclusão é de que os estudos brasileiros precisam avançar nas publicações referentes a esta área.

RESUMO

Resumo Objetivo: Determinar a prevalência de fatores predisponentes de baixa acuidade visual entre os alunos do Colégio Universitário Geraldo Reis em Niterói-RJ. Métodos: Trata-se de um estudo observacional transversal realizados em duas etapas. A primeira realizou-se a medida da acuidade visual dos alunos voluntários que aderiram ao termo de assentimento. Na segunda etapa foram selecionados aqueles alunos cuja acuidade visual não ultrapassaram 0,8 em pelo menos um dos olhos ou que apresentaram diferença de acuidade visual entre os olhos de duas linhas ou mais na tabela de Snellen, sendo encaminhados para avaliação oftalmológica completa no Serviço de Oftalmologia do Hospital Universitário Antônio Pedro / Universidade Federal Fluminense. Resultados: Do total de 325 alunos matriculados, 134 (41,2%) participaram da primeira etapa do estudo e, destes, apenas 39 (29%) apresentaram baixa visão. Dos 39 alunos selecionados para a segunda etapa do estudo, apenas 14 (36%) se voluntariaram a prosseguir para avaliação oftalmológica completa, tendo as ametropias (57,14%), a ambliopia (21,42%) e o estrabismo (14,28%) como as principais causas de baixa visual identificadas. Conclusão: A prevalência de baixa visão(low vision=baixa visão tem definição, não se chama baixa visual) para essa comunidade foi de 29% e as principais causas identificadas foram as ametropias, as ambliopias e o estrabismo. Campanhas de conscientização e os problemas de adesão aos programas de triagem devem ser considerados em novos estudos.

Abstract Purpose: To determine the prevalence of predisposing factors of low visual acuity among the students of the Geraldo Reis University College in Niterói-RJ. Methods: This was a cross-sectional observational study during which the visual acuity of the volunteer students who adhered to the assent term was measured. Those students whose visual acuity did not exceed 0.8 in at least one eye or who presented a difference between the eyes of two lines or more in the Snellen table were selected for the next stage of the study and were referred for complete ophthalmologic evaluation in the Service of Ophthalmology of the Antônio Pedro University Hospital / Fluminense Federal University. Results: Of the total of 325 students enrolled, 134 (41.2%) participated in the first stage of the study and of these, only 39 (29%) presented visual impairment. Of the 39 students selected for the second phase of the study, only 14 (36%) volunteered to proceed for a complete ophthalmologic evaluation, with ametropias (57.14%), amblyopia (21.42%) and strabismus (14, 28%) as the main causes of visual impairment identified. Conclusion: The prevalence of visual impairment for this community was 29% and the main causes identified were ametropias, amblyopia and strabismus. Awareness campaigns and problems of adherence to screening programs should be considered in new studies.
