ABSTRACT

RESUMO Os fitoterápicos à base de leite de janaguba (Himatanthus drasticus (Mart.) Plumel), usados para o tratamento de câncer, úlcera gástrica e outras doenças, são muito vendidos em mercados públicos de Fortaleza (CE). No entanto, registros mencionam que é comum a troca deste leite por látex de mangabeira (Hancornia speciosa Gomes). O trabalho objetivou avaliar a qualidade físico-química, química e microbiológica de amostras comerciais do leite de janaguba. Dez amostras comerciais foram adquiridas de um mercado de Fortaleza; quatro amostras autênticas de látex de janaguba foram obtidas da chapada do Araripe e uma amostra de látex de mangabeira foi obtida em Paracuru (CE). Foram determinados o aspecto geral, densidade, pH, resíduo seco, volume de sedimentação, perfil cromatográfico e qualidade microbiológica das amostras. Os resultados mostraram elevada contaminação microbiológica nas preparações comerciais e adulteração em seis destas amostras, o que aponta a urgente implantação de uma efetiva farmacovigilância dos fitoterápicos a fim de tornar seu consumo mais seguro e racional.


ABSTRACT The herbal medicines made from janaguba milk (Himatanthus drasticus (Mart.) Plumel), used to treat gastric ulcer, cancer and other diseases, and arewidely sold in the public markets of Fortaleza (CE). However, records mention that it is common to make fake copies of the milk by using mango tree latex (Hanconia speciosa Gomes). This study aimed to evaluate the chemical, physical-chemical and microbiological quality of commercial samples of janaguba milk. Ten commercial samples were purchased from a Fortaleza market; four authentic samples of janaguba latex were obtained from the Araripe plateau, and one mango tree latex sample was obtained in Paracuru (CE). We determined the general appearance, density, pH, dry residue, sedimentation volume, chromatographic profile and microbiological qualities. Results showed high microbiological contamination in the commercial preparations and evidence of tampering in six of these samples, which indicates the need for an urgent implementation of an effective pharmacovigilance strategy for herbal medicines in order to make its consumption more secure and rational.

ABSTRACT

RESUMO Himatanthus drasticus (Mart.) Plumel, janaguba, produz um látex em seu caule que é usado para o tratamento de alguns tipos de câncer, vermes intestinais, febre, menstruações irregulares, infertilidade feminina e úlceras gástricas. Estudos fitoquímicos revelaram a presença de acetato de lupeol e proteínas; e estudos farmacológicos, os efeitos antiúlcera, antitumoral, imunomodulador, analgésico e anti-inflamatório. O presente trabalho objetivou realizar levantamento etnobotânico e etnofarmacológico sobre H. drasticus como contribuição ao conhecimento científico da referida espécie. Foi elaborado um questionário, que foi aplicado em entrevista a 21 raizeiros nos mercados das cidades de Crato, Fortaleza e Pacajus do estado do Ceará (CE). Observou-se que 38,1% dos raizeiros têm mais de 10 anos de serviço e 47,6%, estão na faixa etária de 40 a 59 anos, o que representa um fator positivo quanto à experiência com plantas medicinais. Aproximadamente 85,7% dos raizeiros relataram o uso do látex da H. drasticus para tratamento de úlcera; 66,7% para inflamação; 66,7% para câncer. Verificou-se que as principais indicações terapêuticas relatadas pelos raizeiros sobre esta espécie estão de acordo com as informações científicas. Os levantamentos etnobotânicos e etnofarmacológicos exercem um papel primordial no resgate do conhecimento tradicional, nos meios rurais e urbanos, tanto por seu valor histórico-cultural, como também pela necessidade de confirmação das indicações de uso.


ABSTRACT The Himatanthus drasticus (Mart.) Plumel, janaguba, produces a latex whose stem is used to treat some types of cancer, intestinal worms, fever, irregular menses, female infertility and gastric ulcers. Phytochemical studies revealed the presence of lupeol acetate and proteins in the latex; and pharmacological studies indicated antiulcer, anti-tumor, immunomodulating, analgesic and anti-inflammatory effects. This study aimed to conduct surveys on ethnopharmacological and ethnobotanical species H. drasticus as a contribution to the scientific knowledge about the species. A questionnaire and interviews were made with 21 healers in the markets of the cities of Crato, Fortaleza and Pacajús, in state of Ceara (CE). It was observed that 38.1% of the healers have more than 10 years of service, and 47.6% are between 40-59 years old, which is a positive factor about the experience with medicinal plants. Approximately 85.7% of the healers reported to apply latex H. drasticus for the treatment of ulcers, 66.7% for inflammation, and 66.7% for cancer. It was found that the main therapeutic indications mentioned by the healers about this species are consistent with the scientific information available. The ethnobotanical and ethnopharmacological surveys play an essential role on keeping the traditional knowledge in rural and urban areas, both for its historical and cultural value, but also for the need of confirmation of the intended use.

ABSTRACT

Objetivo: Comparar la frecuencia de hipotiroidismo subclínico (HSC) entre mujeres con infertilidad primaria (IP) y secundaria (IS) asistidas en la consulta de ginecología de la Maternidad “Dr. Armando Castillo Plaza”, en Maracaibo, estado Zulia. Métodos: Investigación comparativa y aplicada, con diseño de tipo no experimental, contemporáneo transeccional y de campo en la cual se incluyeron 100 mujeres con infertilidad, separadas en dos grupos pareados en relación con el tipo de infertilidad, a las cuales se les determinó el perfil hormonal tiroideo: hormona estimuladora del tiroides (TSH), tiroxina libre (FT4) y triiodotiroxina libre (FT3). Resultados: No se evidenciaron diferencias estadísticas significativas entre las mujeres con IP o IS, en cuanto a edad, menarquía, sexarquía, número de parejas y tiempo de convivencia. En las mujeres con IP prevaleció el factor ovulatorio (50 %) seguido del tubo-peritoneal (34 %), mientras que entre las pacientes con IS el factor principal fue el tubo-peritoneal (38 %) seguido del ovulatorio (28 %); mostrando solamente el factor ovulatorio una diferencia significativa (p< 0,05). Se determinó que las pacientes con IP presentaron significativamente concentraciones más elevadas tanto de la TSH (3,14 ± 2,08 vs. 2,33 ± 1,59; p< 0,05) como de FT4 (1,19 ± 0,37 vs. 1,04 ± 0,25; p< 0,05); determinándose una prevalencia de HSC en mujeres infértiles del 17 %; siendo más frecuente y significativo en el grupo de mujeres con IP que en las pacientes con IS (26 % vs. 8 %; OR [IC95%]= 4,04 [1,26 -13,43]; p < 0,05), en tanto que según la severidad del HSC todos los casos detectados en ambos grupos se encontraban dentro del grado I. Conclusión: Existe una mayor prevalencia de HSC entre las mujeres con IP que en las pacientes con IS.


Objective: To compare the frequency of subclinical hypothyroidism (SCH) among women with primary (PI) and secondary infertility (SI) who presented for gynecology consultation at Maternity "Dr. Armando Castillo Plaza" in Maracaibo, Zulia state. Methods: Comparative and applied research with non-experimental, contemporary transactional and field design, including 100 women with infertility, separated into two groups matched for the type of infertility. Thyroid hormone profile: thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH), free thyroxine (FT4) and free triiodothyroxine (FT3) were measured in these women. Results: There were no statistically significant differences between women with PI or secondary SI, in terms of age, menarche, sexarche, number of partners and length of cohabitation. In women with PI the ovulatory factor prevailed (50 %) followed by the tube-peritoneal (34 %), while among patients with SI the main factor was the tube-peritoneal (38 %) followed by the ovulatory (28 %); only the ovulatory factor showed a significant difference (p < 0.05). PI patients had significantly higher concentrations of both TSH (3.14 ± 2.08 vs. 2.33 ± 1.59, p <0.05) and FT4 (1.19 ± 0, 37 vs. 1.04 ± 0.25, p < 0.05); the prevalence of SCH was determined at 17% in infertile women, being more frequent and significant in the PI group of women than in SI patients (26 % vs. 8 %, OR [95 % CI] = 4.04 [1.26-13.43], p < 0.05), while according to the severity of SCH all cases detected in both groups were within grade I. Conclusion: There is a higher prevalence of SCH in women with PI than in patients with SI.

ABSTRACT

Objectives: We report about the percutaneous closure with coils of small and medium sized ductus arteriosus, and their long term follow up in a single center. Patients and Method: This is a retrospective study, including 291 patients in an intention to treat basis, between 1998 and 2006. Results: The median age and weight at time of procedure was 45 months and 16,7 Kg respectively. The immediate rate of occlusion was 82 percent and 91,3 percent at 1 year follow up. Up to 98 percent of cases needed just 1 coil to close the defect. The result was considered sub optimal in 33 cases (11,6 percent) almost half of this group was evaluated as having mild residual shunt at one year, all of them closed with additional coils percutaneously. Only the size of ductus was related to this type of result (>3 mm). Conclusions: The percutaneous closure with coils, is a highly eficacious alternative, for treatment of ductus arteriosus up to 2,5-3 mm, as minor diameter, with a very convenient cost/benefit rate. Beyond these limits the advantages disappear, and alternative devices become the treatment of choice.


Objetivos: Se reporta sobre el cierre percutáneo de ductus pequeños y medianos con coils en un solo centro, su diagnóstico y seguimiento ecocardiográfico a largo plazo. Pacientes y método: Se realizó un estudio retrospectivo sobre 291 pacientes portadores de ductus arterioso diagnosticado ecocardiográficamente en quienes se intentó el cierre percutáneo entre 1998y 2006. Resultados: La mediana de edad y peso de los pacientes al momento del procedimiento fue de 45 meses y 16,7 kg. La tasa de oclusión inmediata fue de 82 por ciento y de 91,3 por ciento a un año. En el 98 por ciento de los casos se utilizó un solo coil para cerrar el defecto. El resultado fue sub óptimo en 33 casos (11,6 por ciento) siendo casi la mitad de estos casos correspondientes a shunt residual leve a un año, todos cerrados con coil en procedimiento percutáneo adicional. Sólo el tamaño del ductus estuvo relacionado con este resultado (>3mm). Conclusiones: El cierre con coils sigue siendo un tratamiento altamente eficaz para ductus de hasta 2,5-3 mm de diámetro menor, con una relación costo/beneficio muy favorable al compararse con dispositivos alternativos. Más allá de estos límites las ventajas mencionadas tienden a disminuir en forma considerable y se hace discutible su uso.

ABSTRACT

Scorpion sting is a health problem in some places of Mexico. The clinical manifestations of scorpion envenomation are variable and include metabolic alterations. Hyperkalemia is the most frequently reported metabolic alteration. We conducted a prospective, observational, descriptive and transversal study in an emergency room at Hospital del Niño Morelense, Mexico. Eighty-two patients were included and classified as mild (17 percent) moderate (33 percent) and severe (46 percent). The mean serum level of sodium was 146.4meq/l, standard deviation (SD) 5.58; potassium 3.86meq/l, SD 0.53, and calcium 9.55mg/dl, SD 0.76. We found 30.4 percent hypernatremia, 12 percent hypokalemia, 10.9 percent abdominal distension, and 14.6 percent visual alterations.

ABSTRACT

Se estudió el efecto de distintos tratamientos de esterilización sobre la calidad nutricional expresada como retención de tiamina y sobre la pérdida de color en conservas de salmón (Salmo salar). En la materia prima y en las conservas se determinó el contenido de tiamina mediante HPLC y la variación de color mediante colorímetro triestímulo Hunter. Las conservas se elaboraron en envase salmonero y se esterilizaron hasta alcanzar el valor Fo = 6 min. El valor nutricional representado por la tiamina se vio afectado por las altas temperaturas y por el tiempo de exposición al calor. La mayor retención de tiamina fue de 19,2% y se obtuvo en las conservas que se procesaron a 114°C por 89 min. El color de las conservas de salmón varió significativamente respecto a la materia prima, se produjo pérdida de coloración roja y mayor claridad de la carne.


The present work studied the effect of different treatments at high temperatures on the nutritional properties of thiamine retention and color measurement experimentally. Canned salmon (Salmo salar) was processed under different temperatures and time conditions (110°C for 135 minutes; 114°C for 89 minutes; 118°C for 69 minutes and 121°C for 62 minutes). Thiamine was determined by HPLC before and after the process. Color changes, due to processing conditions, were also measured utilizing a Hunter colorimeter. The canning was prepared in 300 x 407 cans and sterilized until Fo value reached 6 min. The nutritional value or index represented by the B1 vitamin or thiamine was affected by high temperature and time exposition. The lowest loss of thiamine of 19.2% was obtained in the canned salmon sterilized at 114°C for 89 minutes. The color in canned salmon was different from the raw material, with a severe loss of red color and a greater clarity of the meat.

ABSTRACT

En este estudio se obtuvieron harinas a partir de la manaca o acai (Euterpe oleracea Mart), de la batata (Ipomea batatas), y del ñame (Dioscorea spp.), especies vegetales cultivadas en el Amazonas venezolano. A dichas harinas se les determinó su composición proximal, actividad de agua (aw), contenido de Fe, Ca, Zn, Mg, Cu, Na y K y se usaron como ingredientes de productos destinados a dos etnias del Amazonas Venezolano (Piaroa y Hiwi). Se formularon dos tipos de productos que tradicionalmente contienen harina de trigo en su formulación (ingrediente que ellos conocen por la transculturización), a los fines de sustituirla total o parcialmente por las harinas de manaca, batata y/o ñame. Para seleccionar los productos a formular se consideraron los gustos y hábitos alimentarios de las dos etnias, la facilidad y sencillez de las preparaciones. Los productos que se formularon fueron galletas y "torticas". Para decidir la(s) formulación(es) definitiva(s) se realizaron evaluaciones sensoriales a nivel de laboratorio y en las comunidades indígenas Piaroa y Hiwi. Destaca el alto contenido de grasa (16%), fibra dietética (59,7%) y hierro (73,7mg/100g) de la harina de manaca. Dos tipos de galletas y dos de "torticas" fueron igualmente aceptadas por las comunidades indígenas Las galletas aportan un alta cantidad de hierro (aproximadamente 24mg/100g). Se demostró la factibilidad de sustituir la harina de trigo por harina de manaca, batata y ñame en productos aceptados por dos etnias del amazonas venezolano.


In this study, flours from manaca or acai (Euterpe oleracea Mart), sweet potato (Ipomea batatas), and yam (Dioscorea spp.), species grown in the Venezuelan Amazon, were obtained. The proximal composition, water activity (aw), Fe, Ca, Zn, Mg, Cu, Na and K content were determined for the flours of manaca, sweet potato and yam. These flours were used as ingredients of products for the inhabitants of the indigenous populations of the Venezuelan Amazon (Piaroa and Hiwi). Two types of products that traditionally contain wheat flour in their formulation (ingredient they know by transculturation) were formulated; an attempt to substitute it totally or partially by the manaca, sweet potato and/or yam flours was made. For the selection of the products to be formulated, the preferences and eating habits of the indigenous communities and ease and simplicity of the preparations to be developed, were considered. The two products formulated were cookies and "small cakes". To decide on the formulation(s) of the final product(s), sensorial evaluations were made in the laboratory and in the indigenous communities Piaroa and Hiwi. High fat content (16%), dietetic fiber (59.7 %) and iron (25mg/100g) in manaca or acai flour were remarkable. Two types of cookies and two of "small cakes" were equally accepted by the indigenous communities. Cookies supply a high iron amount (about 24%). The feasibility of substituting the wheat flour by manaca, sweet potato and yam flour in products accepted by two ethnic populations of the Venezuelan Amazon was demonstrated.

ABSTRACT

Addressing the high utilization of medications among the elderly, this study explored the degree of knowledge of polypharmacy and its consequences, as well as the pattern of utilization by a group of elders 65 years of age and over in the San Juan metropolitan area of Puerto Rico. A dual technique was utilized: focus groups and a survey. Two focus groups were performed in order to explore issues pertaining the following domains: quality of life, doctor-patient and pharmacist-patient relationships, degree of knowledge of polypharmacy, and need of information. A questionnaire was administered to obtain information regarding their pattern of drug utilization. Results of focus groups indicated that the elderly have learned how to cope with their chronic conditions and be able to continue with quality of life. Additionally, results suggested a need form the elderly to develop more assertiveness and closeness with their health care providers, both doctor and pharmacist; as well as a lack of sufficient knowledge of the serious implications that polypharmacy brings. Results from the survey revealed and confirmed their inappropriate utilization of medications, and suggest that this segment consults multiple physicians, all of which may bring potential problems of adverse drug interactions. Further investigation is needed to examine fully the issue of polypharmacy, as well as the need of education that results in empowerment of patients, families and communities.

ABSTRACT

Scorpionism is a public health problem in some places in Mexico. The clinical symptoms of envenomation by scorpion sting are by sympathetic and parasympathetic stimulation, developing systemic and local symptoms. The Central Nervous System (CNS) is one of the organs that are affected. In some cases, cerebral edema develops. In this report we present two pediatric cases with the association of envenomation by scorpion sting and cerebral edema. The first case developed severe cerebral edema, which progressed to a fatal outcome; and the other case developed mild cerebral edema with a satisfactory evolution. The pathophysiology of this complication is not well known and probably is the consequence of hypoxia, secondary to respiratory failure, laryngospasm and seizures that are manifestations of envenomation by scorpion sting

ABSTRACT

A menudo el pediatra se enfrenta a manifestaciones clínicas o hallazgos al examen físico que hacen sospechar una patología cardíaca. La detallada anamnesis y exhaustivo examen del paciente, incluyendo la palpación de pulsos, medición de presión arterial y detallada auscultación son una muy útil herramienta en el diagnóstico diferencial. La disposición actual de estudios por imágenes más sofisticados y de alto costo, no deben hacer olvidar la importancia de la semiología

ABSTRACT

Los EEG de 158 progenitores con epilepsia y actividad paroxística generalizada (APG) fueron comparados, inter e intrafamiliarmente, con los de sus 276 hijos de 0 a 19 años de edad. Se denominó APG a la presencia de actividad paroxística alfa, beta, theta, delta, grupos de ondas de 3 a 4 cps., disrritmia paroxística y ondas escarpadas (Steile Wellen). El 33% de los hijos presentaron como sus progenitores APG y el 44,3% de las familias resultaron ser "semejantes", es decir, tenían al menos un hijo con APG. El 5% de los hijos tuvo un EEG diferente al de sus progenitores y el 3,8% de las familias fueron "diferentes". Tanto el sexo de los progenitores como el de sus hijos no fue una variable de significación en la ocurrencia de semejanzas o diferencias electroencefalográficas. Se discuten los resultados destacando que debido a la ausencia de estudios similares al nuestro y a las dificultades metodológicas de este tipo de trabajo, ellos deben quedar sometidos a su confirmación o rechazo en futuras investigaciones
