Authors: Ramón-Bautista Cynthia Selene , Arroyo Yabur Rafael Gerardo
Published: October 2017

Objetivo: Evaluar el componente mercadológico de la campaña “Lava, Tapa, Voltea, Tira” (LTVT) en comunidades rurales de Tabasco, México.
Materiales y métodos: La investigación constó de dos fases: análisis documental, y trabajo de campo. Se realizó un muestreo no probabilístico, con
participantes voluntarios residentes de municipios con alto riesgo de transmisión y mayor incidencia de casos positivos de dengue (2014-2016).
Resultados: Se identificó como amenaza de la campaña LTVT la falta de agua intradomiciliaria, la principal fortaleza es la difusión a nivel nacional,
inclusive en lengua indígena. En el trabajo de campo, se observó que las viviendas encuestadas llevan a cabo las acciones anticipatorias de la campaña:
lavar (97%), tapar (92%), voltear (91%) y tirar (91%). El 74% de los participantes demostró poseer conocimientos acerca de la transmisión, el 82%
aseguró identificar los síntomas, 87% indicó conocer las complicaciones, 91% refirió saber el tratamiento y 89% señaló las medidas de prevención
del dengue. Respecto al análisis del marketing mix, en el componente “promoción” el 96% de los encuestados reconoció la imagen de la campaña,
resultando entendible (57%), atractiva (59%), identificable (54%) y motivadora (49%) para la mayor parte de los participantes. El canal de difusión de
mayor impacto fueron los talleres comunitarios (38%) proporcionados por las Unidades de Salud. En relación al “producto” esperado el 52% de los
participantes mencionó “Lavar” periódicamente con jabón y cepillo los contenedores, 50% “Tapa” recipientes u objetos que puedan almacenar agua,
el 55% “Voltea” los contenedores de uso poco frecuente y 54% “Tira” botellas, latas, llantas y objetos que pueden acumular agua.
Conclusiones: La dispersión poblacional y el rezago social dificultan la transmisión del mensaje, sin embargo, mediante las Unidades de Salud las
comunidades rurales tienen conocimiento de las acciones anticipatorias de la campaña.

Authors: Rodrigues Rita Vale , Silva João Pereira da , Rosa Isadora , Santos Isabel , Pereira Nuno , Soares Carla , Pereira António Dias
Published: October 2017

Introduction: The purpose of postoperative surveillance programs after curative treatment for colorectal cancer is to detect asymptomatic recurrences with the premise that an important rate will be eligible for curative resection, improving overall survival. We have implemented a surveillance program for patients with colorectal cancer, stages II-III, with periodic clinical, carcinoembryonic antigen and cancer antigen-19-9 assessment, computed tomography and colonoscopy. The aim of this study was to assess the rate of curative treatment of recurrence, colorectal cancer mortality and clinical characteristics associated with non-resectable recurrence.Material and Methods: Open cohort study, single center. All patients on the intensive surveillance program between March 2008 and January 2015 were included. Statistics: chi-square, Wilcoxon rank sum test, logistic regression, Kaplan-Meier log-rank test (SPSS20®).Results: We had a total 404 patients evaluated; 59.6% male; mean age of 65 ± 10 years; 50.7% rectal tumor; 56.2% stage III. The average time of follow-up was 37 months and the recurrence rate was 12.9% (n = 52), mostly detected in the first three years (88.4%). The pattern of recurrence was associated with the site of the primary tumor (p < 0.001). Twenty-one patients underwent curative resection. Factors associated with non-resectable recurrence were aged ≥ 70 years (p = 0.022), disease location in the colon (p = 0.033) and cancer antigen-19-9-9 elevation (p = 0.024). The overall rate of cancer-specific mortality was 2.2% (n = 9).Discussion: The association between colon cancer and non-resectable recurrence is explained by the higher rate of disseminated disease in these patients. Cancer antigen-19-9 added no benefit to the surveillance program.Conclusion: This intensive real-world postoperative surveillance program allowed performing curative surgery to 40.3% of patients with recurrence.
Morbilidade Neonatal na Diabetes Gestacional: Coincidência ou Consequência do Consenso de 2011
Authors: Mimoso Gabriela , Oliveira Guiomar
Published: October 2017

Introdução: A diabetes gestacional constitui uma das doenças associada à gravidez com maior taxa de complicações. Apesar de ser uma condição habitualmente transitória, estão reconhecidas as suas complicações a curto e longo prazo. Há evidência científica para afirmar que um bom controlo metabólico reduz as complicações perinatais. Em 2011, foram propostos novos critérios para o seu diagnóstico, o que o tornou possível logo no primeiro trimestre de gravidez. Neste trabalho, propomo-nos comparar a morbilidade neonatal entre dois grupos de recém nascidos filhos de mulheres com diabetes gestacional submetidos a dois protocolos diferentes.Material e Métodos: Estudo observacional analítico, retrospetivo descritivo de recém nascidos de mães com diabetes gestacional com gravidez unifetal seguida na Maternidade Bissaya Barreto no período de 2008 a 2013. Utilizou-se a informação clinica de recém nascidos e mães com diabetes gestacional armazenada em base de dados. Analisaram-se as repercussões clínicas da utilização do novo consenso comparando dois períodos de três anos.Resultados: Analisaram-se 774 díades mãe-filho. No segundo período a diabetes gestacional foi diagnosticada mais precocemente e a terapêutica com insulina foi instituída com mais frequência. Registou-se um aumento significativo da morbilidade neonatal, com mais casos de hipoglicémia neonatal e de anomalias congénitas e maior taxa de recém nascidos leves para a idade gestacional.Discussão: O aumento da morbilidade neonatal, nos últimos anos, associou-se de um modo positivo à precocidade do diagnostico de diabetes gestacional e ao rigor do controlo metabólico.Conclusão: Analisar os dados nacionais será fundamental para compreender este inesperado e preocupante aumento da morbilidade.
Volume ou Valor? O Papel do Radiologista na Gestão dos Exames Radiológicos
Authors: Silva Carlos Francisco , Guerra Teresa
Published: October 2017

Introdução: Pretendeu-se perceber os motivos e quantificar o número de ecografias e tomografias computorizadas que potencialmente são desperdiçadas a nível da urgência hospitalar na nossa instituição, e a importância que o radiologista pode ter na gestão e triagem desses exames.Material e Métodos: Definiu-se que os exames urgentes pendentes há mais de sete dias seriam objeto de análise quanto ao motivo de não realização, consultando os registos médicos eletrónicos. Foram usadas seis causas para cancelamento dos referidos pedidos: ‘Alteração do estado do doente’, ‘Desistência, recusa ou abandono do doente’, ‘Falecimento do doente’; ‘Sem critério ou contraindicado’, ‘Falta de recursos humanos’ e ‘Engano na marcação’.Resultados: No ano de 2015 obtivemos 1211 exames cancelados, por estarem pendentes há mais de uma semana. As quatro primeiras causas totalizaram 602 exames (somatório de 283, 94, 41 e 184). As duas últimas, 609 (somatório de 29 e 580).Discussão: Verificou-se que os 602 exames correspondentes ao somatório das quatro primeiras causas refletem um potencial desperdício em exames pois não foram determinantes na abordagem do episódio de Urgência e no destino final do doente. Debaixo desta ponta do iceberg poderão estar ainda mais exames e doentes que não escaparam a exames inadequados ou injustificados.Conclusão: O radiologista poderá gerir melhor os exames radiológicos requisitados, triando eficazmente, num ambiente de equipa multidisciplinar, promovendo a elaboração e apoiando a aderência a normas de orientação e diminuindo potencialmente as requisições através de pareceres ou segundas opiniões.

With the advancement in technology the demands for businesses are increasing, exactly the way compliance with legalities and rules and regulations have become a must for businesses to reach their peak. Considering the very scenario, this review paper aims to recon the importance and linkage of branding with laws and legislation required to brand a specific product/ service. Most importantly the current trend in higher education branding entails ways for rigorous marketing which universities and HEIs (Higher Education Institutions) are doing to promote themselves. From TV ad to Social media and from promotional flexes to gorilla marketing, universities are leaving no stone unturned to band themselves. However, their branding approach and campaigns are bound to comply with local laws of their respective countries which are governed by cultural and geographical constraints as well. Therefore this analysis based commentary forms bases for future research comprising of branding and legislation as a determinant of the intensity and limit for branding, thus focusing the importance of mercantile law with business world.

A região Norte do Brasil é considerada zona endêmica de diversas doenças infectocontagiosas, das quais podemos citar a meningite. A doença possui diversos fatores causais, sendo que a etiologia viral é a mais comum, porém a de origem bacteriana apresenta-se como responsável pela maior taxa de mortalidade. Entretanto, apesar da sua relevância no contexto de saúde pública na região Norte do país, poucos são os estudos publicados sobre a meningite na região. Nesse sentido, foi realizado um estudo transversal com o objetivo de traçar o perfil dos indivíduos acometidos por essa doença no Norte do Brasil entre os anos de 2012 e 2015. Os dados foram obtidos no banco de dados oficial do Sistema de Informação de Agravos de Notificação (SINAN). No período de estudo, ocorreu queda no número de casos notificados, houve predominância do sexo masculino, da faixa etária entre 0 e 19 anos e de etiologia bacteriana. Este trabalho, associado a estimativas globais, pode fornecer subsídios para ações de prevenção e controle da meningite na região Norte.     Palavras-chave: Meningite; Região Norte; Brasil; Epidemiologia.

ABSTRACT

Northern region of Brazil is considered an endemic area of several infectious diseases, such as meningitis. The disease has several causal factors, and the viral etiology is the most common, but the bacterial origin is responsible for the highest mortality rate. However, despite its relevance in the context of public health in the northern region of the country, there are a few published studies on meningitis in the region. So, a cross-sectional study was carried out with the objective of tracing the profile of the individuals affected by this disease in Northern Brazil between the years of 2012 and 2015. Data were collected from the official database of the notification of injury information system. During the study period, there was a decrease in the number of cases reported, there was a predominance of males, ages ranging from 0 to 19 years and bacterial etiology. This work, combined with global estimates, can provide subsidies for prevention and control of meningitis in the North.                                   Keywords: Meningitis; Northern Brazil; Epidemiology.

Hipertensão arterial sistêmica (HAS) é uma doença definida pela elevação mantida dos níveis pressóricos. Pode ser agravada pela presença de fatores de risco como dislipidemias, obesidade, intolerância à glicose, diabetes mellitus, tabagismo, sedentarismo, entre outros. Realizou-se estudo transversal a fim de determinar o perfil dos casos de HAS notificados no estado do Tocantins, Brasil, no período de 2002 a 2012. Foram coletadas e avaliadas informações presentes no banco de dados oficial do Sistema de Informação de Agravos de Notificação (SINAN). As variáveis analisadas foram idade, sexo, fatores de risco e ocorrência de complicações. Encontrou-se que, no estado do Tocantins, foram notificados 79.570 casos de HAS entre os anos de 2002 e 2012. A média anual foi de 7.233,64 casos/ano. Nesse período, 60,21% dos casos notificados correspondiam ao sexo feminino e 39,79% ao sexo masculino. Adultos acima de 40 anos de idade compreendeu o grupo etário mais acometido. O pico de ocorrência se deu em indivíduos entre 60 e 64 anos. Tabagismo, sobrepeso e sedentarismo, estiveram relacionados com muitos casos notificados, além de graves complicações cardiovasculares preveníveis. Sugere-se, então, que ações educativas de prevenção primária e secundária podem contribuir sobremaneira para diminuir a ocorrência desse agravo na região.              Palavras-chave: Hipertensão; Doenças cardiovasculares; Tocantins; Brasil.

ABSTRACT

Hypertension (HTN) is a disease defined by sustained elevation of blood pressure levels. It may be aggravated by the presence of risk factors such as dyslipidemia, obesity, glucose intolerance, diabetes mellitus, smoking, sedentary lifestyle, among others. A cross-sectional study was carried out to determine the profile of cases of HTN reported in the state of Tocantins, Brazil, from 2002 to 2012. Data were collected and evaluated using the official database of the notification of invalidity information system. The analyzed variables were age, sex, risk factors and the occurrence of complications. It was found that in the state of Tocantins, 79,570 cases of HTN were reported between 2002 and 2012. The annual average was 7,233.64 cases/year. During this period, 60.21% of the reported cases were female and 39.79% were male. Adults over 40 years old comprised the most affected age group. The peak occurred in individuals between 60 and 64 years old. Smoking, overweight and sedentary lifestyle were related to many reported cases, as well as serious preventable cardiovascular complications. It is suggested, therefore, that educational actions of primary and secondary prevention can contribute greatly to reduce the occurrence of this disease in the region.                                                Keywords: Hypertension; Cardiovascular Events; Tocantins; Brazil.

Injuries to the Female Athlete in 2017
Authors: Frank Rachel M. , Romeo Anthony A. , Bush-Joseph Charles A. , Bach Bernard R.
Published: October 2017

* Youth female athletes are more likely to sustain overuse injuries compared with traumatic injuries, and youth male patients are more likely to present following a traumatic injury compared with an overuse injury.

* Among high-school athletes, although boys’ football tends to have the overall highest rate of injuries requiring a surgical procedure, among directly comparable sports (soccer, basketball, and baseball or softball), girls generally have a significantly higher rate of injury requiring a surgical procedure, with the knee being the most commonly injured anatomical location.

* In sports with similar playing rules, specifically basketball and soccer, the reported incidence of concussion is higher in female athletes compared with male athletes.

* The incidence of lower-extremity stress fractures is substantially higher in female athletes, female military personnel, and female runners compared with male athletes, male military personnel, and male runners.

* In 2007, the description of the female athlete triad was modified by the American College of Sports Medicine to focus more on the underlying metabolic features of the syndrome, and has more recently been described as the combination of low-energy availability, with or without disordered eating; menstrual dysfunction; and low bone mineral density.
Injuries to the Female Athlete in 2017
Authors: Frank Rachel M. , Romeo Anthony A. , Bush-Joseph Charles A. , Bach Bernard R.
Published: October 2017

* Among female and male patients with hip labral pathology, female patients have smaller alpha angles, acetabular version values, and femoral anteversion values when compared with male patients.

* Revision hip arthroscopic surgical procedures for femoroacetabular impingement are more common in female patients than male patients.

* Not all patients with shoulder laxity have instability, and it is critical for clinicians to understand that shoulder laxity is not synonymous with instability, particularly in the female athlete.

* Among high-school and collegiate athletic patient populations, female athletes are more likely to sustain some ankle and knee injuries compared with male athletes when assessing sex-comparable sports participation.

* The rate of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) rupture in female athletes is at least 3 times higher than the rate of ACL rupture in male athletes. Although many potential variables, including anatomical differences, hormonal differences, biomechanical factors, neuromuscular factors, genetic predisposition, and even psychological assessment of competitive ability, have been suggested, no single factor can account for this remarkable difference.

* Sex-based differences in native knee anatomy and kinematics, including increased quadriceps (Q)-angles and femoral anteversion in female athletes compared with male athletes, contribute to higher rates of recurrent patellar instability in female athletes.

* Sex-based differences in dynamic knee valgus or tibiofemoral abduction, quadriceps dominance or relative hamstring weakness, foot pronation, and tibial external rotation, as well as possible core weakness, for example, have all been implicated as risk factors for ACL injury and patellofemoral pain or instability in the female athlete.
Mechanistic Modeling of Clay Swelling in Hydraulic–Fractures Network
Authors: Sanaei Alireza , Shakiba Mahmood , Varavei Abdoljalil , Sepehrnoori Kamy
Published: October 2017

Hydraulic fracturing is the most effective technique used in the oil industry for economical production of hydrocarbon from very-low-permeability reservoirs. Recent experimental studies have indicated a change in hydraulic-fracture (HF) conductivity as the result of the interactions between fracturing fluid and shale matrix. Clay swelling is one of the well-known undesirable interactions of this kind. If clay swelling occurs on the surface of the HF, it can cause major damage to the overall performance of the fracture network. Thus, a detailed understanding of the clay-stability issue is essential for fracturing-fluid selection and operation planning.

Clay-swelling-induced conductivity damage is primarily a function of rock mineralogy, fracturing-fluid composition, and formation-brine salinity. Thus, various levels of clay/water interaction are expected in different shale formations. In this study, we present a mechanistic approach to model clay swelling in various rock mineralogies including Barnett (clay-rich), Eagle Ford (calcite-rich), and Marcellus shales. Subsequently, we investigate the production loss caused by clay swelling in a realistic complex HF network. We used UTCOMP-IPhreeqc, a coupled multiphase reactive-transport simulator developed at the University of Texas at Austin, to comprehensively model this process. The ion hydration and the expansion of electrostatic double layer (EDL) were assumed to be the main clay-swelling mechanisms. Surface complexation and ion-exchange reactions were considered to capture the ion diffusion into the electrostatic double layer expansion. In each timestep of the simulation, the calculated volume expansion of clay materials exposed on the fracture surface was used to modify the fracture aperture. To evaluate the performance of a complex HF network after clay-swelling damage, the embedded discrete fracture model (EDFM) was applied.

The simulation results indicated that the degree of clay swelling varies in different shale formations. On the basis of the clay content and the mineralogies that were considered in this work, a significant expansion in electrostatic double layer expansion was observed for the Barnett Shale when fresh water was injected. However, this effect was much lower in Eagle Ford and Marcellus shales. Similarly, the production loss in the HF network was substantial in the Barnett example. The contribution of the fractures far from the producing well in gas production significantly decreased after clay-swelling damage. The pressure-depletion profiles clearly showed the adverse impact of conductivity damage on fracture-network performance. The presented approach provides the capability to mechanistically model the clay stability and to approximate its impact on transport properties of HFs.

Objective: Inflammation and its complications might develop in patients diagnosed with diabetes mellitus. It is shown that number, shape and functions of thrombocytes are important for development and prediction of inflammatory process. We aimed to show the changes of number, morphology and functions of platelets in the patients with gestational diabetes mellitus.study design: In a retrospective study, 928 cases in 24-28th weeks of gestation followed regularly in the same clinic were included. We performed 75g oral glucose tolerance test to all cases. Mean platelet volume, platelet distribution width and plateletcrit values of the cases with and without gestational diabetes mellitus according to American Diabetes Association criteria were compared to evaluate the platelet count, morphology, functions and activity.Results: Platelet count and plateletcrit values of cases were significantly higher in the patients with gestational diabetes mellitus. No significant differences were found between the cases with and without gestational diabetes mellitus in mean platelet volume and platelet distribution width values.Conclusion: There is tendency to inflammation in GDM and platelets are part of inflamatuary process in human metabolism. Our findings show that, platelets are affected in GDM. We believe that further studies in this subject will help understanding of pathophysiology of GDM.

The Unsaturated Polyester Via Ring-Opening Metathesis Polymerization (ROMP) of ω-6-Hexadecenlactone
Authors: Martinez Araceli , Tlenkopatchev Mikhail A. , Gutierrez Selena
Published: October 2017

Background:

Ring opening metathesis polymerization of lactones using alkylidene catalysts is an
alternative to obtain unsaturated linear polyesters with remarkable thermal and mechanical properties. Also,
these polyesters have properties of biodegradability which opens up a wide range of applications as environmentally
friendly thermoplastics and biomaterials.

Objective:

This research aims to present one route to obtain an unsaturated linear polyester poly(ω-6-
hexadecenlactone) via ring opening-metathesis polymerization of ω-6-hexadecenlactone using the rutheniumalkylidene
[Ru(Cl)2(=CHPh)(PCy3)2] (I), [Ru(Cl2)(=CHPh)(1,3-bis(2,4,6-trimethylphenyl)-2-imidazolidinylidene)(
PCy3)] (II) and [Ru(Cl2)(=CH(o-isopropoxyphenylmethylene))(1,3-bis(2,4,6-trimethylphenyl)-2-imidazolidinylidene)]
(III) and the ruthenium-vinylidene [RuCl2(=C=CH(p-C6H4CF3))(PCy3)2] (IV) catalysts.

Conclusion:

The high number-average molecular weights of the poly(ω-6-hexadecenlactone) between Mn =
114,800-155,400 g/mol and yields ranging from 96 to 98 % can be achieved by II and III catalysts. The catalysts
II and III with the N-heterocyclic carbene ligand showed superior activity and stability upon catalysts I
and IV bearing PCy3 ligands. The hydrogenation of poly(ω-6-hexadecenlactone) using Wilkinson catalyst
[RhCl(PPh3)3] was studied. The percent crystallinity of the unsaturated poly(ω-6-hexadecenlactone) was 31%
with a melting temperature 47.60ºC. Stress-strain measurements of several poly(ω-6-hexadecenlactone) were
determined.
A Straightforward Synthesis of 4,7-Disubstituted 1,4-Oxazepanes via a Bronsted Acid-Catalyzed Intramolecular Etherification Reaction
Authors: Castillo Juan-Carlos , Portilla Jaime , Insuasty Braulio , Quiroga Jairo , Abonia Rodrigo
Published: October 2017

Aim and Objective: Although many synthetic methods are known for seven-membered N,Oheterocycles,
most of them focus on fused benzoxazepines. In fact, an exhaustive searching of the literature revealed
that very few synthetic approaches for non-fused 1,4-oxazepanes have been reported. Thus, straightforward
and efficient synthetic strategies for the construction of diversely substituted 1,4-oxazepanes would be a
welcome access to a relatively underexplored chemical space. Two of these strategies were undertaken in this
study.

Materials and Methods:

One of our reactions proceeded by the treatment of ethanolamines with polyformaldehyde
and N-vinylpyrrolidin-2-one in ACN as solvent at room temperature in order to obtain the title 1,4-
oxazepane derivatives. Alternatively, through a careful temperature control, analog structures were selectively
obtained from a H2SO4 catalyzed intramolecular etherification reaction of diversely substituted N-tethered bisalcohols
in p-dioxane as solvent.

Results:

Based on intramolecular etherifications, two strategies (i.e. a three-component Mannich-type approach
and cyclization of N-tethered bis-alcohols), were implemented for the synthesis of novel and diversely 4,7-
disubstituted 1,4-oxazepanes in moderate to good yields. Structures of the new obtained compounds were confirmed
by 1- and 2D NMR techniques as well as MS spectra.

Conclusion:

According to the results, the above intramolecular etherification reactions proceeded with the
formation of benzylic carbocations as the key intermediates for the generation of the title compounds. Temperature
and the nature of the R1 substituent in the N-tethered bis-alcohols were critical variables for the selective
formation of the desired products from this kind of precursors.
