title: Alarm fatigue and the implications for patient safety

description: ABSTRACT Objective: To measure the response time of health professionals before sound alarm activation and the implications for patient safety. Method: This is a quantitative and observational research conducted in an Adult Intensive Care Unit of a teaching hospital. Three researchers conducted non-participant observations for seven hours. Data collection occurred simultaneously in 20 beds during the morning shift. When listening the alarm activation, the researchers turned on the stopwatches and recorded the motive, the response time and the professional conduct. During collection, the unit had 90% of beds occupied and teams were complete. Result: We verified that from the 103 equipment activated, 66.03% of alarms fatigued. Nursing was the professional category that most provided care (31.06%) and the multi-parameter monitor was the device that alarmed the most (66.09%). Conclusion: Results corroborate the absence or delay of the response of teams, suggesting that relevant alarms might have been underestimated, compromising patient safety.

title: Isolation and genetic characterization of Toxoplasma gondii from free-ranging and captive birds and mammals in Pernambuco state, Brazil

description: Abstract Recent genetic population studies on Toxoplasma gondii in Brazil have shown large genetic variability. The objective of the present study was to isolate and genotypically characterize T. gondii from free-ranging and captive wild mammals and birds in Pernambuco state, Brazil. Fragments of heart, brain, skeletal muscle and diaphragm tissue from 71 birds and 34 mammals, which were either free-ranging or captive, were collected. Samples from 32 of these animals were subjected to bioassays in mice. Samples from the remaining 73 animals underwent biomolecular diagnosis, using PCR technique, targeting a repetitive DNA fragment of 529 bp in T. gondii. A non-virulent isolate (TgButstBrPE1) was obtained from a free-ranging striated heron (Butorides striata) and, based on primary samples, seven animals were found to be positive. The primary samples and the isolate obtained were subjected to PCR-RFLP using the markers SAG1, 5’3’SAG2, alt.SAG2, SAG3, BTUB, GRA6, c22-8, c29-2, L358, PK1, Apico and CS3. ToxoDB-RFLP genotype #13 from the striated heron isolate and Type BrIII genotype from a captive otter ( Lontra longicaudis) (PS-TgLonloBrPE1) were obtained. The present study describes the first isolation and genotypic characterization of T. gondii in free-ranging striated heron, and the first genotypic characterization of T. gondii in a captive otter.

title: Pressure Ulcer in Intensive Care Units: a case-control study

description: ABSTRACT Objective: To evaluate the relationship between presence/absence of Pressure Ulcer, socio-demographic factors and hospitalization. Method: Case-control study, performed through multiple logistic regression based on information from the adverse event reporting system and the hospital information system, between September/2014 and August/2015. Results: Among the risk factors, after adjustment, age greater than or equal to 60 years, hospitalization due to infectious, parasitic and neoplastic diseases, periods of hospitalization longer than seven days and being hospitalized in ICU other than ICU covenant were highlighted. Most of ulcers were reported with mild damage degree and Stage II classification. Conclusion: Age and days of hospitalization presented a dose-response effect, the longer the age or the number of days of hospitalization, the greater the chances of Pressure Ulcer. There was a significant association among higher occurrences of death in patients with ulcer.

title: Association between Matrix Metallopeptidase 9 Polymorphism and Breast Cancer Risk

description: Abstract Objective Epidemiological studies have shown evidence of the effect of genetic variations in the pathogenesis of breast cancer and have suggested a relationship of the disease with genetic polymorphisms. Matrix metallopeptidase 9 (MMP-9) is a collagenase responsible for the degradation of type IV collagen, the major component of the basement membrane, and other essential extra cellular matrix components, being involved in the tumor cell invasion and metastasis. Our objective was to evaluate the relationship between the MMP-9-1562 C/T polymorphism (rs 3918242) and the risk of developing breast cancer. Methods In this case-control study, the frequency of the MMP-9-1562 C/T polymorphism (rs 3918242) was determined in 148 women with breast cancer and 245 women without the disease. The DNA was extracted from plasma samples, and the gene was amplified by polymerase chain reaction (PCR); the presence of the polymorphism was determined using restriction enzymes. Results After adjusting for confounding variables, we found that the polymorphism was not associated with the occurrence of breast cancer (odds ratio [OR] = 1.159, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.6625-1.997, p = 0.5964). We also found no association with more advanced disease, the presence of hormone receptors, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) overexpression, or rate of tumor cell proliferation. Conclusion We did not observe a relationship between MMP-9-1562 C/T polymorphism (rs 3918242) and the occurrence of breast cancer.

title: Importance of health guidance for family members of children with sickle cell disease

description: ABSTRACT Objective: To know the main health guidance needs of family members of children with sickle cell disease. Method: Qualitative research, developed in a pediatric reference hospital of Ceará State, between April and May 2017, through the participation of 12 family members of children with sickle cell disease. The data were collected through semi-structured interviewees and analyzed according to the Bardin’s Thematic Categorical Analysis. Results: The relatives had divergent opinions about what this pathology would be and expressed the expectation of being broadly guided, from general information (signs and symptoms) to more complex ones about the disease, including major complications and ways of preventing them. Final considerations: The health fragility due to the punctual and/or meager guidance provided to family members reflects the importance of increasing knowledge and clarifying doubts of these relatives about the disease, which makes it urgent to develop health education strategies by multiprofessional teams.

title: Effects of different periods of gastric ischemia on liver as a remote organ

description: Abstract Purpose: To evaluate the hepatic changes associated with gastric ischemia. Methods: Thirty male rabbits were studied, distributed in 3 groups (n=10). Group 1: ligature and section of the gastric vasculature and removal of the liver after three hours; Group 2: ligature and section of the gastric vasculature and removal of the liver after 6 hours; Group 3: ligature and section of the gastric vasculature and removal of the liver after 12 hours. Blood samples were collected immediately before surgery and after the determined time of ischemia in each group to evaluate the hepatic function. After the death of the rabbits, the liver was removed for macro and microscopic study. Results: An increase in aminotransferases and bilirubin occurred in groups 2 and 3. Total protein and albumin diminished in all of the animals. All of the rabbits from groups 2 and 3 presented hepatocellular necrosis. Conclusion: The devascularization of the stomach for a period of above three hours is associated with hepatic morphological and functional disorders.

title: SYNTHESIS, CHARACTERIZATION AND CYTOTOXIC ACTIVITY EVALUATION OF CYCLOPALLADATED COMPOUNDS CONTAINING ORTHOMETALLATED BENZALDEHYDEOXIME AND ETHYLENETHIOUREA AS LIGANDS

description: The halide-bridge cleavage reaction of the [Pd(C2 ,N-bzox)(µ-Cl)]2 compound (bzox = benzaldehydeoxime) with ethylenethiourea (L) in the 1:2 molar ratio at room temperature yielded the cyclopalladated compound [Pd(C2 ,N-bzox)(Cl)(L)] (1) whose replacement of the halide group by the addition of suitable salts afforded compounds of general formulae [Pd(C2 ,N-bzox)(X)(L)] {X = Br- (2), I- (3)}. All compounds were characterized by melting point, elemental analyses, infrared and 1H- and 13C{1H}-NMR spectroscopies revealing the complexes formation with the oxime coordinated to Pd(II) as C,N-chelating and the ethylenethiourea as a monodentate ligand via the sulfur atom. The cytotoxicity of cyclopalladated compounds has been evaluated in vitro against murine mammary tumor cell (LM3) showing cytotoxic activity similar to cisplatin.

title: A Convenient Synthesis, Reactions and Biological Activity of Some New 6H-Pyrazolo[4',3':4,5]thieno[3,2-d][1,2,3]triazine Compounds as Antibacterial, Anti-Fungal and Anti-Inflammatory Agents

description: We describe here the design and synthesis of novel pyrazolothienotriazine compounds based on diazotization followed by cycloaddition reactions of 4-amino-3-methyl-1-phenyl-1H-thieno[2,3-c]pyrazol-5-carbonitrile with sodium nitrite in the presence of concentrated HCl in acetic acid. The produced chloropyrazolothienotriazine underwent nucleophilic substitution reactions with various primary and secondary amines including sulfa drugs to afford the N-substituted aminopyrazolothienotriazines. Hydrazinolysis of the chlorotriazine with hydrazine hydrate afforded the hydrazinotriazine, which was used as a versatile precursor for synthesis of other compounds. The chemical structures of the newly synthesized compounds were confirmed on the basis of elemental and spectral analyses containing Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR),1H and 13C nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and mass spectrometry. Some of the synthesized compounds showed high antibacterial and anti-fungal activities. Also, most of the tested compounds exhibited high anti-inflammatory activity compared with indomethacin using carrageenan induced rat paw edema assay.
