Presentación de gastroenteritis eosinofílica como brote de colitis con abdomen agudo

: Eosinophilic gastroenteritis is rare. Fewer than 30 cases have been published in the Spanish literature, although Kaijser first described this entity in 1937. Its etiology is still unknown and it has frequently been reported to involve the stomach and small bowel, with characteristic eosinophilic infiltration of the bowel wall. The colon has rarely been reported as a site of this condition, which manifests as acute abdominal pain due to intestinal obstruction. We report the case of a 38-year-old woman who presented eosinophilic gastroenteritis. Onset was acute colitis causing acute abdomen. The patient received conservative treatment and responded well to steroids. To our knowledge, such a case has not previously been reported.

Adenoviral Infection – Common Complication Following Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation

Allogeneic stem cell transplantations (allo-SCT) increase in recipients the risk of lifethreatening opportunistic infections caused by different pathogens. In recent years, adenoviruses (AdV) have been recognized as an emerging pathogen causing serious posttransplant complications with very high mortality (Fowler et al., 2010). Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation is a standard treatment in malignant and non-malignant disorders of bone marrow, solid tumors, immunodeficiencies, and autoimmune disorders (Gyurkocza et al., 2010; Ljungman et al., 2010). Intensive immunosuppressive treatment for prevention both of graft rejection and graft-versus-host disease (GvHD) and the therapy of the latter one, makes the patients at risk of developing opportunistic infections. The immune reconstitution period following hematopoietic transplantation is therefore accompanied by high incidence of adenoviral infections due to profound immunodeficiency (Echavarri a, 2008; Gyurkocza et al., 2010). Lack of immunological competence caused by invasive cancer therapy and conditioning procedures results mainly in lowering the number of CD3+ lymphocytes in peripheral blood. Lymphopenia increases patient`s risk for de novo infection or reactivation of a latent virus that mainly occurs during the early posttransplantation period and usually leads to disseminated disease. The time of the infection onset is also vital, because AdV infections occurring after day +100 from the transplantation do not seem to be associated with life-threatening disease (Lion et al., 2003). According to different retrospective and prospective studies, adenovirus has been found to infect from just a few percent to a several dozen percent of patient post-HSCT (Akiyama et al., 2001; Arnberg et al., 2002; Benko et al., 2000; Ebner et al., 2005; Howard et al., 1999; Mahr & Gooding, 1999; Lauer et al., 2003; Robin et al., 2007; Rutala et al., 2006; Stone et al., 2003; Walls et al., 2003; Watzinger et al., 2004) with mortality in disseminated disease reaching even 80% (Akiyama et al., 2001; Mori et al., 2003; Russell, 2000; Walls et al., 2003; Watzinger et al., 2004). Adenoviruses are commonly detected in stool, pharyngeal swabs, urine and
The FIR/radio correlation in starburst galaxies - constraints on starburst models

This paper presents an analysis of the correlation between the far-infrared (FIR) and the radio emission of starburst galaxies. Data for interacting galaxies, many of which are undergoing a starburst, and for normal galaxies have been analysed and compared in order to test for any inﬂuence of the star-formation activity on the ratio between the FIR and the radio emission at 2.4 GHz, q 2 . 4GHz . No statistically signiﬁcant indication for such an inﬂuence has been found: There is neither a signiﬁcant diﬀerence between q 2 . 4GHz of the two samples nor a dependence of this ratio on the starburst strength. This observational fact is unexpected because of the diﬀerent physical condi-tions and the short time-scale of the star-formation activity in a starburst. In order to interprete the observations the FIR and the radio emission during a starburst have been modeled. The following conclusions could be drawn from the observed constancy of q 2 . 4GHz : A strong and fast ( ≈ 10 7 yr) increase of the magnetic ﬁeld at the beginning of the starburst is required in order to maintain a constant q 2 . 4GHz . Otherwise the strong Inverse Compton losses that are due to the intense radiation ﬁeld in a starburst would lower the synchrotron emission drastically resulting in a value of q 2 . 4GHz signiﬁcantly higher than the observed one. Furthermore, the time-scale of the variation of the star-formation rate has to be longer than some 10 7 yr. For lower values the diﬀerent time-scales of the FIR and the radio emission produce large ﬂuctuations of q 2 . 4GHz .

Disinfection of the root canal system during root canal re-treatment

In this narrative review, the differences between primary root canal treatments and re-treatments are explored in view of optimal disinfection of the root canal system. A critical appraisal of the literature raises doubt as to whether the microbiota found in re-treatment cases per se is more resistant to antiseptics than the counterpart found in primary infections. In reality, primary, refractory, and persisting endodontic infections are all biofilm-related; their microbial composition is dictated by local ecological factors rather than treatment history. Furthermore, their resistance to antimicrobials is most likely similar. The true difficulty in disinfecting root canal systems during re-treatment cases is to achieve access to the infected areas. Iatrogenic alterations in canal anatomy and the presence of root filling material hamper the diffusion of disinfectants to these target areas. Consequently, cleaning the canal systems of foreign material and creating a canal shape that can properly be disinfected should be the initial aims. Ways of achieving these goals are discussed. Subsequently, the disinfection regimen can be similar to that in primary root canal infections. However, time is a crucial factor in re-treatments, and thus a multiple-visit approach is preferable in more complex cases in order to ensure more complete disinfection has been achieved.

A comparison of drug treatment outcome of irritable bowel syndrome patients with and without education: a randomized controlled study

The objective of the prospective randomized controlled comparative study to explore about the role of education in the treatment of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), a chronic continuous or remittent gastrointestinal illness characterized by frequent unexplained symptoms that include abdominal pain, bloating and bowel disturbance. The patients who fulfilled the set criteria of this study and had normal physical examination were considered to undergo screening investigations (Hb%, TC, DC, ESR, blood glucose, serum TSH, stool for R/M/E and short colonoscopy or double contrast barium enema) to exclude any organic disease. In order to administer the same pharmacological treatment only diarrhea predominant patients without any organic disease were recruited for the present study. The number of recruited patients was 80. Of them, 40 patients were given only pharmacological management with Mebeverine Hydrochloride 135 mg thrice daily half an hour before meal and Amitryptyline 10 mg at night for 6 months, and the other 40 patients were given education by a structured and planned educational class for 1 hr in addition to the same pharmacological treatment. In both groups, changes of symptoms and quality of life of the patients were assessed by using a valid IBS related quality of life (IBS-QOL) instrument. The results showed that significant improvement occurred in both the groups of patients at 1 month and 6 months in respect to their baseline IBS-QOL score. But the improvement was not significantly higher in the group with education in comparison to the group without education. Therefore, it can be concluded that the educational class had no extra impact on drug treatment protocol for IBS used in the present study. Mediscope Vol. 2, No. 2: July 2015, Pages 22-27
ON SPHERICALLY SYMMETRIC SOLUTIONS IN D-DIMENSIONAL DILATON GRAVITY

Exact static, spherically symmetric solutions to the Einstein-Abelian gauge-dilaton equations, in D -dimensional gravity with a chain of n Ricci-ﬂat internal spaces are considered, with the gauge ﬁeld potential having three nonzero components: the temporal, Coulomb-like one, the one pointing to one of the extra dimensions, and the one responsible for a radial magnetic ﬁeld. For dilaton coupling implied by string theory an ( n + 5)-parametric family of exact solutions is obtained, while for other dilaton couplings only ( n +3)-parametric ones. The geometric properties and special cases of the solutions are discussed, in particular, those when there are horizons in the space-time. Two types of horizons are distinguished: the conventional black-hole (BH) ones and those at which the physical section of the space-time changes its signature ( T-horizons ). Two theorems are proved, one ﬁxing the BH and T-horizon existence conditions, the other discarding the possibility of a regular center. Diﬀerent conformal gauges are used to characterize the system from the D -dimensional and 4-dimensional viewpoints.

Diagnóstico de fragilidad en adultos mayores de una comunidad urbana

Objetivos Diagnosticar la poblacion de adultos mayores fragiles en una zona urbana atendida por el Grupo Basico de Trabajo "Palatino" del area de salud "Antonio Maceo"del municipio Cerro en La Habana, Cuba. Metodos Se realizo un estudio observacional, descriptivo, de indole transversal en la poblacion de mayor 60 anos durante el 2005. Se trabajo con el universo de los adultos mayores constituido por 699 personas. Se estudiaron 541 que cumplian con los criterios de inclusion. Para estimar la prevalencia de fragilidad se aplico la Escala Geriatrica de Evaluacion Funcional a todos los adultos mayores incluidos en el estudio y se clasificaron en fragiles y no fragiles segun los criterios cubanos de fragilidad. Con la informacion recopilada se confecciono una base de datos para su analisis por medio, fundamentalmente, de distribuciones de frecuencias. Resultados El 51,4 % de los estudiados se identifico como fragil. Se encontro que el criterio de fragilidad prevalente era la polifarmacia (35,5 %) y que un adulto mayor del sexo femenino tiene un riesgo relativo de ser fragil de 1,33 con respecto a uno del sexo masculino, de ahi que la condicion de fragilidad se asocio al sexo femenino. Conclusiones La fragilidad en el adulto mayor es una condicion de alta prevalencia en la poblacion del Consejo Popular "Palatino", en cuya expresion incide de manera considerable la polifarmacia.
Versatile Auxiliary Classifier with Generative Adversarial Network (VAC+GAN), Multi Class Scenarios

Conditional generators learn the data distribution for each class in a multi-class scenario and generate samples for a specific class given the right input from the latent space. In this work, a method known as "Versatile Auxiliary Classifier with Generative Adversarial Network" for multi-class scenarios is presented. In this technique, the Generative Adversarial Networks (GAN)'s generator is turned into a conditional generator by placing a multi-class classifier in parallel with the discriminator network and backpropagate the classification error through the generator. This technique is versatile enough to be applied to any GAN implementation. The results on two databases and comparisons with other method are provided as well.
Usage of Antibiotic as Milk Preservative in the Slums of Khartoum State

The aim of this study is to investigate whether milk sellers in the slums of Khartoum state preserve their milk with antibiotics or not. Thirty milk samples were examined from each selected regions of Khartoum state. Tow tests were carried out, the first for total viable bacteria count, and other for allergy test. The result shows undetected bacteria in some samples and this is reflecting of using antibiotic for milk preservation. The result showed that some sample gave positive reaction for allergy test and this is another confirmation that the samples with no detected bacteria were due to usage of antibiotic. This study conclude that the majority of milk seller in Khartoum used antibiotics as milk preservative and the study recommend that the milk sellers and farmers should not preserve their milk with antibiotic and neither to use or sell milk of cows recently treated with antibiotics.
Exploring decision making in intellectual disability nursing : provider and user perspectives

This thesis describes a series of studies that examine how nurses who work with people with intellectual disability make clinical decisions in practice. Current research offers evidence and guidance to support clinical decision making for nurses working within mainstream healthcare services. However, the available reviews of intellectual disability nursing research have identified that evidence to support intellectual disability nursing practice is sparse. Consequently, little is known about how and what decisions intellectual disability nurses make in practice; and the types and sources of evidence they use to support their practice. In the context of intellectual disability nursing and in light of a review of the literature (Chapter 1 and 2), three studies were conducted. The aim of this thesis was to use mixed methods (Chapter 3) to explore the process of clinical decision making in intellectual disability nursing. In Study 1 (Chapter 4), Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis was used to explore how twelve intellectual disability nurses made decisions in practice and how their decisions were influenced by evidence. Four key themes emerged: 1) getting to know the person, 2) working as a team, 3) evidence to support decision making, and 4) understanding of evidence based practice. An all Wales survey (Study 2) of nurses employed by the National Health Service intellectual disability nursing service in Wales was conducted. The survey determined the types and sources of evidence nurses used to make decisions in practice; further identifying the demographic and cognitive characteristics that influenced the use of evidence (see Chapter 5). Study 3 explored how individuals with intellectual disability perceive the role of intellectual disability nurses (Chapter 6). Seven participants engaged in semi structured interviews and the analysis of the data was guided by Foucault’s concepts of dividing practice, scientific classification and subjectification. Two discursive themes emerged from the analysis: (1) Inclusion: empowering and supportive healthcare practice; and (2) Exclusion: challenges and practices that resist healthcare involvement. The integrated findings are discussed in relation to their contribution to the literature, methodological challenges, implications for intellectual disability nursing practice, education and recommendations for future research (Chapter 7).
