title: Characterization of meibomian gland dysfunction in patients with rosacea

description: ABSTRACT Purpose: To compare ocular surface parameters in rosacea patients with those of controls. Methods: Ninety-three participants took part in this cross-sectional, observational, non-interventional study. These consisted of a rosacea group (n=40) and a control group (n=53). We compared objective parameters of the ocular surface, including conjunctival hyperemia, tear film stability and volume, meibomian gland dysfunction, dry eye disease, and ocular surface staining, between the two groups. Results: In the rosacea group, 69.23% were female. The mean age was 47.34 ± 12.62 years old. No statistically significant differences between groups were found in visual acuity (p=0.987), tear film parameters (tear meniscus height (p=0.338), noninvasive tear film rupture time (p=0.228), invasive rupture time (p=0.471), Schirmer’s test scores (p=0.244), conjunctival hyperemia (p=0.106), and fluorescein staining (p=0.489). Significant differences were found in meibography evaluations (p=0.026), mucous layer integrity (p=0.015), and ocular surface symptoms (p&lt;0.0001). Rosacea patients also showed important eyelid differences in glandular expressibility (p&lt;0.001), glandular secretion pattern (p&lt;0.001), and telangiectasia (p&lt;0.001) compared to controls. Conclusion: Meibomian gland dysfunction is frequently associated with dermatological conditions. It can be observed in morphological findings from meibography as well as lipid secretion impairment, leading to evaporative dry eye, ocular surface dysfunction, and inflammation.

title: Cardiopulmonary resuscitation in the prone position: a systematic review of case series/reports

description: Abstract Introduction The prone position is frequently adopted for surgical or critically ill patients in intensive care. Cardiorespiratory arrest in these patients may pose an operational challenge, in which delays resulting from mobilization to the supine position culminate in worse outcomes. Objective To provide clinical insight based on the synthesis of evidence from reports or case series on reverse cardiopulmonary resuscitation (reverse CPR) in surgical patients or invasive ventilatory support in severe acute respiratory distress syndrome. Methods This is a systematic review of reports or case series in PubMed, Scopus, Embase, and Google Scholar databases, in addition to a search of the gray literature. Case reports published in any language, reporting at least one case of prone cardiopulmonary resuscitation in patients of any age and in any care context, were considered eligible. Results Thirteen studies of fourteen cases of successful reverse resuscitation were retrieved. Three patients died within 30 days, while the others survived without complications or neurological sequelae. Conclusion Despite limited evidence to support clinical decision-making, prone resuscitation appears to be a feasible alternative in exceptional circumstances, where patient mobilization may result in additional harm, delay or interrupt advanced life support (compressions, high-quality early chest surgery, and defibrillation) or incur occupational risks to the health team.

title: Effect of sodium/calcium hypochlorite on adhesion and adaptation of fiber posts luted with a dual resin cement

description: Abstract This study aimed to evaluate the effect of different concentrations of sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) and calcium hypochlorite [Ca(OCl)2] on the bond strength and adaptation of glass fiber posts luted with a dual-curing resin cement. Fifty decoronated premolars were sectioned 14 mm from the apex and endodontically treated. The root canal filling was partially removed. The specimens were divided into 5 groups (n=10) according to the irrigant for post space irrigation: 0.9% sodium chloride (NaCl), (control); 2.5% NaOCl; 5.25% NaOCl; 2.5% Ca(OCl)2; and 5.25% Ca(OCl)2. For each group, irrigation was performed with 5 ml of solution. Afterward, the posts were luted with a dual-curing resin cement. One slice from each third was obtained and submitted to the push-out test and failure modes analysis. An additional slice from the middle third was submitted to confocal images for analysis of adaptation failures (gaps). Two-way ANOVA, Tukey’s post-hoc, Kruskal-Wallis with Bonferroni adjusted, and chi-square tests, analyzed data. The group treated with 5.25% NaOCl showed lower bond strength values and generated more cohesive failures compared to the control (p &lt; 0.05). Bond strength decreased from coronal to apical in the post space (p &lt; 0.001). The groups treated with NaOCl had the highest percentages of gaps compared to the control (p &lt; 0.05). Regardless of concentration, Ca(OCl)2 did not influence the bond strength and the occurrence of gaps (P &gt; 0.05). Ca(OCl)2 is a good option for irrigating the post space before luting a fiber post with a dual-curing resin cement.

title: EVALUATION OF EARLY TREATMENT OF IDIOPATHIC CLUBFOOT USING THE PONSETI METHOD

description: ABSTRACT Congenital clubfoot is one of the most common congenital deformities of the lower limbs, with an estimated incidence of 1 for every 1,000 live births. Its treatment is controversial, and currently the Ponseti method has been widespread, showing promising results and decreasing the need for extensive surgical releases, as was usually done until the introduction of the technique. Currently used in approximately 55 countries, the method has changes and scopes that vary according to the society in which it is applied, with the results and peculiarities of the method molded according to the sample studied. Objective: To evaluate the clinical outcome of clubfoot treatment using the Ponseti method under local conditions. Methods: The clinical evaluation will include a descriptive analysis of the sample, as well as radiographic evaluation and family satisfaction with the treatment. Results: In total, 46% of the patients had good results and no family was dissatisfied with the treatment results. No statistically relevant relationships were found between the studied variables. Conclusion: The results are good and generally similar to those in the literature. Our epidemiological data generally agree with those reported by other authors. Level of Evidence IV, Case Series.

title: Propolis extract as a feed additive of the Nile tilapia juveniles

description: ABSTRACT This study was conducted to investigate the effects of dietary propolis alcohol extract supplementation on growth performance, digestibility, intestinal morphometry, and physiologic parameters Nile tilápia (Oreochromis niloticus L.) juveniles. For performance experiment and intestinal morphometry, 120 fish averaging 1.41±0.3g were randomly distributed into 24 tanks (70L each) in a closed recirculation water system with constant aeration and biofilter. The animals were distributed into four treatments using a completely randomized design with six replicates per treatment. The treatments consisted of four pellet feeds with different alcohol propolis concentrations extract (AEP) (0.0, 0.5, 1.0 and 1.5gkg-1). The performance experiment period was conducted for 45 days. For the digestibility experiment, an inert marker in the feed and the adapted Guelph feces collecting system were used. The results showed no differences in the performance parameters, crude protein apparent digestibility and dry matter of the feeds, intestinal morphometry, and physiologic parameters. However, there was an increasing linear effect on the energy digestibility with increasing PAE concentrations in the fish feed. The usage of the propolis extract supplementation levels of 1% is recommended for optimum effect on villus morphometry in Nile tilapia.

title: Anti-erosion effect of an experimental varnish on eroded dentin

description: Abstract This in vitro study evaluated the effect of an experimental varnish containing 20% nano-hydroxyapatite (nHAP) associated with 5% stannous chloride (SnCl2) against erosive-abrasive wear on bovine dentin. Samples of bovine cervical dentin were pre-eroded (0.3% citric acid, pH 2.6 for 10 minutes) and randomized into 4 groups (n=10): Control group - experimental varnish without active ingredient (CG); experimental varnish containing 20% nHAP (nHG); experimental varnish containing 5% SnCl2 (24.800 ppm Sn2+) (SnG); experimental varnish containing 20% nHAP associated with 5% SnCl2 (18.300 ppm Sn2+) (nHSnG). After applying the materials, the erosive-abrasive challenges were performed for five days. Erosive dentin loss and analysis of the pattern of dentinal obliteration were performed by 3D confocal laser microscopy. A one-way ANOVA/Bonferroni test was performed to analyze the data (α=0.05). The SnG and nHSnG experimental groups presented more effectiveness in preventing erosive wear when compared to the other groups (p&lt;0.05). There was no statistically significant difference between the SnG and nHSnG groups (p = 0.731) in tooth structure dentin loss. Regarding the amount of open dentinal tubules, the highest amount of obstructed dentinal tubules was demonstrated in SnG and nHSnG (p &lt; 0.05) when compared to the others. Between SnG and nHSnG there was no significant difference (p = 0.952) in the amount of closed dentinal tubules in the dentin. Experimental varnishes containing 5% SnCl2 associated or not with 20% nHAP showed to be a promising strategy in preventing erosive-abrasive wear of dentin. In addition, nHSnG was able to obliterate dentinal tubules.

title: WRITTEN CULTURE AND TYPOGRAPHIES IN MINAS GERAIS: PRODUCTION CONDITIONS AND OFFERS OF PRINTED MATERIAL USE BETWEEN THE END OF THE 19TH CENTURY AND THE BEGINNING OF THE 20TH

description: Abstract Based on the studies of the history of books and written culture, the article considers typography as one of the indicators of the circulation of written culture in the state of Minas Gerais, Brazil, between the end of the 19th century and the beginning of the 20th. We take yearbooks, almanacs, and advertisements as sources to recover some technical conditions of typographies and their role in the relation to other instances, such as bookstores and stationery stores. From the advertisements, we inventory the offer of printing and map some areas of use and writing genres. We have discovered that the majority of the offers are used in financial and commercial life, followed by the uses connected to everyday life, information, advertising, religious, civil and legal spheres, school, and literature. We conclude that printed and manuscript cultures are blended in the genres and that typography can reflect the social practices of writing while establishing and inventing them.

title: Reader’s Place of Speech in the Globo Rural Magazine (1985-2015)

description: Abstract The aim of this paper is to analyze reader's place of speech in the Globo Rural magazine. To do that, the communication theories that focus the active role of the reception in the circularity of the communicative process are used. The corpus consists of 1170 texts published in the opinion section of 30 editions of the magazine between 1985 and 2015. The study uses a qualitative approach to investigate the place of speech that is demarked in the interaction between the public and the magazine and aims to connect it to the decoding positions, when assumed by the readers. The results show that the textual genre and the editorial format establish an inter-relation with the media consumers and, although the mediation through dialogue with an imagined rural subject is evident, it is not exclusive.
