ABSTRACT

Abstract: We report a 72-years-old male patient with extensive differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC), who required a tracheostomy and gastrostomy. Considering his clinical condition, risk of aspiration and management of the ostomies, radioiodine (131I) was administered intravenously, using recombinant human thyrotropin (rhTSH) and levothyroxine. The procedure was successful, both clinically and in terms of radioprotection.

ABSTRACT

RESUMO Áreas contaminadas por metais podem configurar sério risco à saúde pública e ao meio ambiente. Na década de 1980 foi instalado um pátio de estocagem provisória de resíduos industriais perigosos (CENTRES), no município de Queimados, Rio de Janeiro, o que causou um grande impacto ambiental ao solo da região. A legislação brasileira para o diagnóstico de áreas contaminadas limita a extração de metais em solos aos métodos recomendados pela United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) 3050 e 3051A. Entretanto, muitos pesquisadores utilizam o método com água-régia para a extração de metais em solo, mas são escassos estudos que comparem as concentrações de metais extraídos por água-régia e USEPA 3051A. Logo, o objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar se o método de extração de metais em solos por água-régia é estatisticamente diferente do método USEPA 3051A. Os resultados obtidos revelaram que as concentrações de Cd, Cr, Cu, Ni, Pb e Zn utilizando ambas as extrações (água-régia e USEPA 3051A) foram estatisticamente semelhantes. Também foi possível identificar que as concentrações de Cu, Ni, Pb e Zn foram superiores ao valor de investigação industrial, o que caracteriza essa área como altamente contaminada e solo classe 4.


ABSTRACT Metal contaminated areas lead to environmental and public health risks. In the 1980s, dangerous industrial waste storage was initiated in the CENTRES area in the municipality of Queimados, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. The inadequate management of these wastes has promoted a large environmental impact to this region's soils. The Brazilian legislation for diagnostics of contaminated areas limits the extraction of metals on soils to USEPA 3050-B and USEPA 3051-A methods. However, many researchers use the aqua regia method for extracting metals in soil, but there are few studies comparing concentrations of metals extracted by aqua regia and USEPA 3051A. Therefore, the objective of this work was to evaluate if the method of extracting metals in soils by aqua regia is statistically different from US EPA 3051A. The results showed that the Cd, Cr, Cu, Ni, Pb and Zn concentrations using both extractions were statistically similar. It was also observed that Cu, Ni, Pb and Zn concentrations were higher than the industrial investigation value which characterizes this area as highly contaminated and soil class 4.

ABSTRACT

Relato de evolução de paciente com infecção por dengue associada com a gestação. A Dengue constitui-se em doença de grande incidência nos países tropicais. Sua ocorrência pode ser de difícil diagnóstico quando junto com a gravidez, pelas modificações que a gestação determina sobre vários parâmetros laboratoriais. Na maioria das vezes, não há intercorrências, apesar dos relatos da dengue com prematuridade e morte fetal. As manifestações da dengue são semelhantes em gestantes e não gestantes ; mas alto grau de suspeição clínica favorece seu diagnóstico precoce.


When dengue, an infection with increasing incidence among the tropical area, occurs in pregnancy it could provide difficult in diagnoses. V. P. C., 20 years old, between the 19th and 20th week of pregnancy, admitted to the hospital with high-grade fever for two days, associated with myalgia, arthralgia, retro-orbital pain, exanthema in anterior chest, and gingival bleeding. The score of platelets and hematometria exams were made and the serologic test detected IgM antibodies and the tourniquet test was negative. Warning signal was not observed. The patient did not show signs of gravity and was follow-up by medical care in the health center. The normal physiological changes in pregnancy could confuse the laboratory exams used at the follow up of pregnant. The treatment was based on control of temperature, hydration oral, and intravenous fluid replacement. Most pregnancies progressed with no complications, besides some works show that there is a relationship between infection and prematurity/fetal death. The clinical picture of dengue is similar in pregnancy and non-pregnancy. However, the high index of suspicion in patients can provides an early diagnosis.

ABSTRACT

Paciente de 36 anos de idade evoluiu com atonia uterina, sendo submetida a histerectomiasubtotal e ligadura de artérias ilíacas internas. O pós-operatório cursou com choquehemorrágico grave, acidose, hipotermia e coagulopatia. Foi necessária a realizaçãode relaparotomia que mostrou 3 L de hemoperitônio e sangramento ativo no local dahisterectomia. O sangramento foi controlado por tamponamento intra-abdominal eoclusão abdominal temporária. Após controle das condições fisiológicas da paciente,realizou-se relaparotomia para remoção do tamponamento abdominal e laparorrafiadefinitiva.


A 36-year-old woman developed uterine atonia and was submitted to a subtotal hys-terectomy and bilateral internal iliac artery ligation. At Intensive Care Unit the patient presented with a major hemorrhage shock, acidosis, hypothermia, and coagulopathy. A relaparotomy showed 3 L of hemoperitoneum and active bleeding from the hysterectomy site, which was controlled by intra-abdominal packing and temporary abdominal closure. After improvement of the patientÆs physiology, a planned re-operative procedure was performed to remove the packs and definitive abdominal closure.

ABSTRACT

Para evaluar el efecte de la caña de azúcar-urea sobre la ganancia de peso en mautas y su consumo en la época de sequía, se llevó a cabo un ensayo con 35 animales con mestizaje predominate de Brahman cebú criollo, edad aproximada de 22 meses, peso promedio de 256,95 kg, en el área de Guasdualito, estado Apure, bajo un diseño completamente aleatorizado, Los tratamientos fueron T0: pastoreo solamente (control) y T1: Pastoreo + 2 kg Urea perlada/100 Kg Caña integral repicada + 1,5 kg sales mineralizadas. La duración del estudio fue de 75 días, donde se consideró 5 días para el período de adaptación a la mezcla. Los resultados demuestran que hubo diferencias significativas en cuanto a la ganancia diaria de peso (P<0,05) con medias de -138,28 y 91,58 g/d/cab para los tratamientos T0 y T1, respectivamente. El uso de esta mezcla constituye una alternativa para el mejoramiento de la dieta basal de mautas en la época de sequía, ya que permitió obtener una mayor ganancia diaria de peso, cuando fue comprado con el grupo control
