Authors: El-Asmar Khaled M. , Abdel-Latif Mohammed , El-Kassaby Abdel-Hamid A. , Soliman Mohamed H. , El-Behery Mosad M.
Published: October 2016

Background: Colonic atresia (CA) is a rare form of congenital intestinal atresia. Although CA may be isolated, it is more commonly reported in literature in association with other congenital anomalies.Materials and Methods: This study is a review of prospectively collected data of all the patients with colonic atresia presented to our center (Ain Shams University) during 2008 to 2016.Results: Twelve patients were enrolled in this study. The atresia was of type I in one case, type II in four cases, type IIIa in six cases, type IV in one case. These cases accounted for 4.9 % of intestinal atresias managed in our center during the same period. Five cases were isolated CA, while the other seven cases had associated abdominal congenital anomalies (exomphalos, Hirschsprung’s disease, imperforate anus, closing gastroschisis, colonic duplication, and multiple small bowel atresia in two cases). The management in ten cases was by staged procedure with creation of a temporary stoma initially, while primary anastomosis was established in two cases. We had two cases with delayed presentations, one missed diagnosis, and three mortalities in this series.Conclusions: The low incidence of CA may result in delay in the diagnosis and management. Hirschsprung’s disease should be excluded in every case of colonic atresia. Early diagnosis and proper surgical management is essential for good prognosis.
A Retrospective Cohort Study of Total Colonic Aganglionosis: Is the Appendix a Reliable Diagnostic Tool?
Authors: O'Hare Thomas Joseph , McDermott Michael , O'Sullivan Maureen , Dicker Pat , Antao Brice
Published: October 2016

Background: Hirschsprung’s disease (HD) is characterized by a lack of ganglion cells in the myenteric and submucosal plexus, associated with increased numbers of acetyl cholinesterase (AChE) positive nerve fibres. In approximately 10% of patients with HD the entire colon will be affected; a condition known as Total Colonic Aganglionosis (TCA). Aganglionosis of the appendix has long been considered to be an important finding in a patient in whom TCA is suspected, but its reliability for diagnosis has seldom been discussed. The aim of our study was to assess the reliability of the appendix as a histological specimen for the diagnosis of TCA, and to evaluate the long-term outcome of TCA.Methods: A retrospective cohort study was performed of all pathological specimens of patients with confirmed HD in our institution between March 2006 and April 2016.Results: Out of a total of 91 patients identified, 15 patients also had histopathological analysis of the appendix. Nine of these cases were confirmed as having TCA. The remaining 6 patients had HD involving the rest of the bowel up to the ascending colon, with normal ganglion present in the caecum. The appendix was removed in all the 15 cases. All 9 patients with confirmed TCA had aganglionosis of the appendix as well. The remaining 6 cases of short and long segment HD not involving the caecum, demonstrated normal ganglion cells within the appendix.Conclusion: Aganglionosis of the appendix is a reliable tool in the diagnosis of TCA. The authors recommend that at the time of levelling biopsies, if aganglionosis extends to the mid-transverse colon, an ileostomy be performed and appendix sent for definitive confirmation of TCA. However, at the time of definitive surgery, a frozen section of pull-through segment of bowel is recommended to confirm the presence of ganglion cells.

Authors: Pahlevan Ayob , Tabatabaei Masumeh Hasani , Arami Sakineh , Valizadeh Sara
Published: October 2016

Objectives:

Different light curing units are used for polymerization of composite resins. The aim of this study was to evaluate the degree of conversion (DC) and temperature rise in hybrid and low shrinkage composite resins cured by LED and Argon Laser curing lights.

Materials and Methods:

DC was measured using FTIR spectroscopy. For measuring temperature rise, composite resin samples were placed in Teflon molds and cured from the top. The thermocouple under samples recorded the temperature rise. After initial radiation and specimens reaching the ambient temperature, reirradiation was done and temperature was recorded again. Both temperature rise and DC data submitted to one-way ANOVA and Tukey-HSD tests (5% significance).

Results:

The obtained results revealed that DC was not significantly different between the understudy composite resins or curing units. Low shrinkage composite resin showed a significantly higher temperature rise than hybrid composite resin. Argon laser caused the lowest temperature rise among the curing units.

Conclusion:

Energy density of light curing units was correlated with the DC. Type of composite resin and light curing unit had a significant effect on temperature rise due to polymerization and curing unit, respectively.
Carotid Artery Atherosclerosis in Patients with Active Rheumatoid Arthritis: Predictors of Plaque Occurrence and Progression Over 24 Weeks
Authors: Pope Janet E. , Nevskaya Tatiana , Barra Lillian , Parraga Grace
Published: October 2016

Introduction:

This study evaluated the prevalence and progression of subclinical carotid artery atherosclerosis in active rheumatoid arthritis (RA).

Methods:

Carotid arteries of RA patients were scanned using 3D ultrasound at baseline and 24 weeks for total plaque area, vessel wall volume, and intima-media thickness (IMT), as well as arterial stiffness measured using pulse wave velocity. Variables related to inflammation, lipids and cardiovascular (CV) risk were assessed for associations with plaque progression. Of 195 screened patients, 31 met inclusion criteria (66 Swollen joint count (SJC) plus 68 Tender joint count (TJC)≥8 OR SJC plus TJC≥4 with elevated acute phase reactants) and were enrolled (27 female; mean age 59.3±9.8years). Patients using lipid lowering drugs and uncontrolled comorbidities were excluded.

Results:

Atherosclerotic plaque occurred in 35% and arterial wall hypertrophy (IMT≥0.6mm) in 86% of patients. Most (68%) had an abnormal lipid profile characterized by reduced HDL and/or increased total cholesterol/HDL index, which was adversely affected by disease activity. Stepwise binary logistic regression analysis showed that Framingham risk score (OR=1.155, 95%CI:1.002-1.332, p=0.046) and ESR (OR=1.148, 95%CI:1.015-1.299, p=0.028) predicted plaque burden most strongly. Plaque progression was significantly associated with baseline higher hsCRP, ESR, and heavy smoking, but only hsCRP predicted plaque growth in multivariate regression analysis (p=0.004); and hsCRP was related to higher disease activity (r=0.443, p=0.016), LDL (r=0.544, p=0.007), and smoking (r=0.384, p=0.04).

Conclusion:

RA-related inflammation contributed to augmented CV burden in RA and might mediate its effect on atherosclerosis through hsCRP and modulation of the traditional CV risk factors, such as dyslipidemia.
A Smart Tool for Intraoperative Leg Length Targeting in Total Hip Arthroplasty: A Retrospective Cohort Study
Authors: Grosso Paul , Snider Matthew , Muir Jeffrey M.
Published: October 2016

Background:

Leg length discrepancies following total hip arthroplasty (THA) may necessitate subsequent interventions, from heel lifts to revision surgery. Current intraoperative methods of determining leg length are either inaccurate or expensive and invasive.

Objective:

The objective of the current study was to investigate the ability of a novel, intraoperative smart tool (Intellijoint HIP®, Intellijoint Surgical®, Inc., Waterloo, ON) to provide accurate, real-time leg length measurements during THA.

Methods:

We retrospectively reviewed the medical records of 25 patients who underwent THA utilizing the Intellijoint HIP smart tool between February and August 2014. Intraoperative leg length data was compared with radiographic leg length calculations. Two observers blinded to the Intellijoint HIP findings independently assessed all post-procedure radiographs.

Results:

The mean difference between smart tool and radiographic measurements was 1.3 mm [CI: -0.1, 2.7]. 88% (22/25) of intraoperative measurements were within 5 mm of radiographic measurements; 100% (25/25) were within 10 mm. A Bland-Altman analysis showed excellent agreement, with 96% (24/25) of measurements within the statistical limit for acceptable agreement, and 84% (21/25) within the clinically acceptable range (± 5 mm). Removal of the first 13 procedures (surgeon training) decreased the mean difference between methods to 0.6 mm [-0.6, 1.9]. All post-training procedures were associated with a difference of <5 mm. There were no reported adverse events related to the use of the smart tool.

Conclusion:

The Intellijoint HIP smart tool is a safe and accurate tool for providing intraoperative measurements of leg length in real-time.

Many common health problems can be prevented by following Ahara Vidhi Visheshayatana, rules of Aharasevana, Patya-Apathya of the disease so on. Food is important as a nutritional source, also with therapeutic value and most importantly it plays an important role during the post treatment period to re-gain the diminished strength due to the harmful effect of the disease.Health is not only depending on the type of food we take, it also depend on the way of Food intake. Healthy and nutritional diet is always advisable in order to prevent the affliction of diseases as it is well known that "prevention is better than cure".

Princípios do laserUma das maiores revoluções tecnológicas da humanidade foi postulada no início do século XX: a teoria do mecanismo de emissão estimulada. Albert Einstein, em 1905, com o auxílio dos postulados de Max Planck, elaborou o conceito dos quanta (fótons) na formação da luz (Figura 1). Em 1953, Charles Hard Townes e colaboradores produziram o primeiro dispositivo capaz de produzir microondas ao invés de luz visível, a maser (microwave amplification through stimulated emission of radiation). Anos após o maser, este dispositivo foi adaptado para emitir luz visível, então batizado de laser.Theodore Harold Maiman foi o primeiro a construir, em 1960, um equipamento gerador de laser. Composto de cristal de rubi, foi operado pela primeira vez neste mesmo ano em Malibu (Califórnia, EUA).

Reflexões Sobre o Autocuidado Praticado na Velhice / Reflection on Self Care Practices in the Elderly

INTRODUÇÃOO tema de minha pesquisa, enquanto aluna do curso de mestrado do Programa de Gerontologia da PUC/SP (Pontifícia Universidade Católica de SãoPaulo) foi “As várias faces do cuidar de si”. Ao longo do desenvolvimento da pesquisa, senti-me envolvida e estimulada pelos estudos filosóficos, em especial, pelos conceitos elaborados por Michael Foucault no que concerne aos preceitos de “cuidar de si”.Percebi que o cuidar de si, para Foucault, vai para além da simples prática dos cuidados físicos. Há de se fundir tal conceito à função ética do“cuidar de si”, ética entendida como escolha autônoma do sujeito, com o consequente desenvolvimento da liberdade de escolha do quê, como e quando realizar o “cuidar de si”.Descobrir se os profissionais que trabalham e/ou estudam/pesquisam o envelhecimento/velhice praticam o autocuidado foi uma das cinco questões da pesquisa realizada com vista à elaboração da dissertação de mestrado intitulada“As várias faces do cuidar de si”, em 2010. Na pesquisa, entrevistei dez profissionais que estudam e/ou trabalham com questões relacionadas ao envelhecimento. Trata-se, portanto, de pessoas que trabalham nas mais diversas áreas do conhecimento: psicólogos, assistente social, antropólogo, cientista social, médicos geriatras, professor, diretor de instituição de idosos, jornalista e administrador. Esses profissionais representam diferentes instituições de renome, tais como Unifesp, Hospital das Clínicas, PUC/SP, Hospital do Servidor Público de São Paulo, Bradesco Previdência, SESC/SP, AFAI(Associação dos Amigos de Idosos) e IDEAC (Instituto de Desenvolvimento, Ensino e Pesquisa sobre o envelhecimento/velhice).A questão “Você pratica o autocuidado?” foi, a meu ver, a questão que mais impactou os entrevistados. Muitos iniciaram suas respostas com justificativas diversas por não considerar que se cuidam adequadamente. Observei que os profissionais se sentiram cobrados, de uma forma ou de outra, a cuidar de si. Mas cobrados por quem? Por mim? Pelo discurso pronto que absorvemos todos os dias e que habita nosso imaginário social? A questão será analisada a seguir.Se refletirmos sobre a palavra autocuidado, a nomenclatura já dirá: auto remete-nos a algo singular, único, do sujeito, pessoal e intransferível.

Published: October 2016

Objetivo: O trabalho objetivou avaliar a composição centesimal, pH e teor de carotenóides de doces de leite tipo caseiro com diferentes concentrações de urucum. Materiais e Métodos: Os doces de leite foram elaborados com leite de vaca integral e sacarose, além da adição (0%; 1,0%; 1,5% e 2,0%) de urucum. Foram realizadas análises de composição centesimal, pH e carotenóides, sendo estes últimos extraídos com acetona, para posterior leitura em espectrofotômetro a 450nm. Utilizou-se delineamento inteiramente casualizado e teste de Tukey (p<0,05) para as análises estatísticas. Resultados: Os teores de umidade, lipídeos, proteínas e cinzas apresentaram-se dentro dos parâmetros exigidos pela legislação brasileira. As amostras com 0% e 1% de urucum não diferiram significativamente entre si, mas diferiram das amostras com 1,5% e 2,0% de urucum (p<0,05). A adição de extrato de urucum no doce de leite interferiu na composição química do mesmo, entretanto, ainda permaneceu dentro dos limites exigidos pela legislação. Conclusão: Os teores de carotenóides nas amostras de doce de leite aumentou proporcionalmente ao acréscimo de extrato de urucum, variando de 0,0281 mg.100g-1 a 0,6030 mg.100g-1, ocorrendo beneficiamento do produto pelo incremento de carotenóides. Palavras chave: Alimentos funcionais, Bixa orellana, Urucum, Carotenóides.  Key words: Functional foods, Bixa orellana, Annatto, Carotenoids

Published: October 2016

Objetivo: Identificar e caracterizar isolados de Candida do trato respiratório de pacientes, em relação à sensibilidade ao fluconazol e produção de enzimas hidrolíticas (fosfolipase e proteinase). Materiais e Métodos: 52 espécies de amostras do trato respiratório no período de 2001 a 2007 foram identificadas pelo método ChroMagar®. As amostras foram submetidas a teste de provas enzimáticas, para obtenção do grau de virulência e testadas quanto à susceptibilidade ao fluconazol, através do método Etest®. Resultados: Candida albicans foi a espécie prevalente, enquanto as demais somaram um total de 67,3%. Todas as amostras foram produtoras de proteinase e 88,5% de fosfolipase e a maioria sensível ao fluconazol, com exceção de C. glabrata que apresentou relevante resistência. Conclusão: Os resultados demonstraram um aumento de isolamento das espécies de Candida não-albicans em amostras clínicas, além de uma relevante resistência ao fluconazol por C. glabrata. Palavras chave: Candida sp; trato respiratório; fluconazol.
O Sagrado e a Ritualidade Diante da Morte / The Sacred and the Rituality When Facing Death
Authors: Oliveira João Batista Alves de
Published: October 2016

Morrer, expressão fria, não inspiradora, devastadora de sonhos, de amores. Certeza única em nossa vida. Ocorre, mais cedo ou mais tarde, de forma branda ou arrebatadora, sutil ou amargurante, suave ou sofrida.Momento em que precisamos agir de determinado jeito para elaborarmos e vivermos a perda, acompanhando a despedida de quem nos é caro e para convivermos adequadamente com a fase do luto. Aí se faz importante a realização do ritual, o qual andou se perdendo na atualidade, não valorizado pela frieza asséptica da morte moderna e queprecisa  ter  retomado  o  seu  valor,  já  que  “...  realizar  a  ação  ritualsignifica conter o pensamento dentro das malhas da ação clara e significativa”.1Não se pode atribuir uma fórmula ou um valor fixo ao rito, mas é certo que não é inútil. Ele representa a nossa história: quem somos, de onde viemos, para onde vamos, porque amamos e também, porque ali, no rito de morte, estamos sofrendo. É o momento de olharmos para aquele de quem nos despedimos e nos enxergarmos nele; de repensar o valor de nossa história, a intensidade do nosso amor, os caminhos e descaminhos de nossa vida juntos.Todo rito de morte, quando esta ocorre lentamente, como no caso de doenças prolongadas, nos prepara para a vivência do luto. Isso é fundamental, pois “o rito equivale a uma ação formal prescrita para ocasiões que vão além da rotina cotidiana teológica, correspondendo uma referência à crença em seus poderes místicos”.1Nesse momento, precisamos dessas crenças, de apegarmo-nos ao Sagrado, independente da concepção que cada um faça deste.
