ABSTRACT

Abstract Background The SARS-CoV-2 outbreak has led to radical transformation in social, economic, and healthcare systems. This may lead to profound indirect consequences on clinical presentation and management of patients with ST-segment-elevation myocardial infarction. Objectives The objective of this study was to describe the characteristics, management, and outcomes of patients admitted with acute myocardial infarction with ST-segment elevation (STEMI), in two tertiary reference hospitals during the SARS-CoV-2 outbreak and compare them with patients admitted in the previous year. Methods We analyzed data from a multicenter STEMI registry from reference centers in the South Region of Brazil from March 2019 to May 2021. The beginning of the COVID-19 outbreak was considered to be March 2020 and compared to the same period in 2019. Only patients with STEMI submitted to primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) were included in the analysis. Mortality rates were compared with chi-square test. All hypothesis tests had a two-sided significance level of 5%. Results A total of 1169 patients admitted with STEMI were enrolled in our registry, 635 of whom were admitted during the pandemic period. The mean age of our sample was 61.6 (± 12.4) years, and 66.7% of patients were male. Pain-to-door time and door-to-balloon time were longer during the pandemic period. However, there was no difference in mortality rates or major adverse cardiovascular outcomes (MACE). Conclusions We observed a stable incidence of STEMI cases in our registry during the SARS-CoV-2 outbreak with higher pain-to-door time and door-to-balloon time, without any influence on mortality rates however.

ABSTRACT

Abstract Aim: This study aimed to investigate the presence of women coaches in table tennis certification courses carried out by national and international federations. Methods: We carried out an analysis on documents extracted from the official websites of the Brazilian Table Tennis Confederation (CBTM) and the International Table Tennis Federation (ITTF). Those documents presented the certificated coaches by each organization. We also collected information about the location of the coach according to the five macro-regions of Brazil. Results: We found a greater frequency of men (89.3%) compared to women (10.7%) in ITTF courses and, in Brazil, we also found a higher rate of men (83.7%) compared to women (16.3%) certified by CBTM. We found no increase in women's participation in ITFF courses over the years. In both national and international courses, most of the women coaches (international = 36%; national = 46.4%) were from the Southeast, while few women coaches were found in the Northeast and North. Conclusion: The findings of our study reveal that the training process of table tennis coaches is still mostly occupied by men. We also found a discrepancy between the macro-regions of the country where most women coaches are from the Southeast. CBTM managed to almost double the women's representation among coaches (from 10.7% to 16%) due to the policy that has been adopted in an attempt to increase the number of women in the sport. We highlight the importance of gender equality policies to improve women coaches' participation in table tennis.

ABSTRACT

Abstract: The aim of this study was to use microscopic and molecular techniques to evaluate the effects of a single session of antimicrobial photodynamic therapy (aPDT) on the alveolar repair process after tooth extraction in rats. The study sample included 84 rats divided into four groups, as follows: a) Control - untreated socket; b) Laser - socket treated using photobiomodulation; c) TBO - socket treated with topic application of the photosensitizer agent, toluidine blue O (TBO); and d) aPDT - socket treated with TBO and laser irradiation. An additional rat was used for thermal mapping during socket irradiation. The animals were euthanatized at 6, 15, and 28 days after unilateral extraction of the upper incisor. Quantitative and qualitative analyses of the connective and bone tissues, blood clot, blood vessel, and inflammatory infiltrate were performed, and real-time polymerase chain reaction was used to study the expression of genes (collagen type I, osteocalcin, alkaline phosphatase [ALP], runt-related transcription factor 2 [RUNX2], and vascular endothelial growth factor [VEGF]) involved in the bone healing process. No statistically significant differences in microscopic and molecular outcomes were observed between the groups (p > 0.05). A positive correlation was seen to exist between blood clot and VEGF (p = 0.000), and a negative correlation was observed between bone tissue and ALP (p = 0.028) and blood vessel and VEGF (p = 0.018). A single session of aPDT in the dental extraction site did not influence the alveolar repair process in rats.

ABSTRACT

O uso tópico de Propionato de Clobetasol 0,05% em solução aquosa para lesões ulceradas na cavidade bucal é pouco divulgado nacionalmente e tem sido pouco citado em traba-lhos científicos a respeito de sua eficácia, tempo de regressão da lesão e efeitos adversos. Portanto, o objetivo deste estudo foi avaliar retrospectivamente prontuários de pacientes que foram tratados de lesões ulceradas através do uso do Propionato de Clobetasol 0,05%, no ambulatório de estomatopatologia de uma Instituição, a fim de investigar sua eficácia. Foram selecionados prontuários de pacientes que apresentaram a alteração fundamental ulcerada ou erosiva e que fizeram o uso tópico de Propionato de Clobetasol 0,05%. A aná-lise retrospectiva foi feita por um examinador, que fez a seleção da amostra seguindo os critérios de inclusão e exclusão. Foram coletadas as informações: Idade, gênero, diagnós-tico da alteração; quantidade de lesão, tempo de uso, evolução da lesão, tempo exato de regressão e presença de reações adversas. Foram incluídos 17 prontuários, dos quais cinco eram de pacientes com lesões erosivas de líquen plano, três úlceras traumáticas, três lesões liquenóides, dois eritemas multiformes, uma alergia a lactose, uma afta e uma gengivite descamativa. Todos os casos apresentaram resolução da sintomatologia, porém as altera-ções clínicas permaneceram em seis casos, embora mais leves e assintomáticas. Não foi ob-servada nenhuma reação adversa registrada no prontuário. A análise estatística não apontou associação em relação ao sexo (teste Exato de Fisher; p=0,49; p>0,05). Não foi observada diferença estatística significativa na frequência das lesões (teste exato de Fisher; p= 0,85; p>0,05). O uso do Propionato de Clobetasol 0,05% prescrito por até cinco dias se mostrou eficaz no tratamento de lesões ulceradas da mucosa bucal, principalmente para o alívio sintomático, além disso, não revelou efeitos adversos.


The treatment of ulcerated lesions of the oral cavity is usually carried out using topical analgesic drugs, anti-inflammatory corticosteroids, and alcohol-free oral antiseptics. The topical use of 0.05% Clobetasol Propionate in aqueous solution for ulcerated lesions in the oral cavity is little publicized nationally and little mentioned in scientific studies regarding its effectiveness, lesion regression time, and adverse effects. Therefore, the objective of this study was to retrospectively evaluate the medical records of patients who were treated for ulcerated or erosive lesions, using Clobetasol Propionate 0.05%, in the stomatology clinic of an institution to investigate its effectiveness. Medical records of patients who presented the fundamental ulcerated alteration and made topical use of 0.05% Clobetasol Propionate were selected. An examiner selected the sample following the inclusion and exclusion cri-teria and performed the retrospective analysis. The types of information collected were age, gender, diagnosis of the disorder, amount of injury, time of use, the evolution of the injury, exact time of regression, and presence of adverse reactions. A total of 17 medical records were included, of which five were from patients with erosive lichen planus lesions, three traumatic ulcers, three lichenoid lesions, two multiform erythema, one lactose allergy, one cold sore, and one scaly gingivitis. All cases had their symptoms solved, but, in six cases, the clinical changes remained, although milder and asymptomatic. No adverse reaction was noted in the medical record. The statistical analysis showed no association in relation to gender (Fisher's exact test; p = 0.49; p> 0.05). There was no statistically significant diffe-rence in the frequency of injuries (Fisher's exact test; p = 0.85; p> 0.05). The use of 0.05% Clobetasol Propionate, prescribed for up to five days, proved effective in treating ulcerated lesions of the oral mucosa, mainly for symptomatic relief. Furthermore, it revealed no ad-verse effects.

ABSTRACT

Objetivo: A proposta deste estudo foi determinar a prevalência das anomalias dentárias em terceiros molares. Materiais e métodos: O estudo foi feito de modo transversal e retros-pectivo através da análise das tomografias computadorizadas de feixe cônico (TCFC) de pacientes com os terceiros molares. As anomalias dentárias foram investigadas e registra-das em tabela previamente desenhada para o estudo. Foram registradas outras informações como: sexo e idade. Resultados:151 exames de TCFC foram incluídos na amostra, totali-zando 308 terceiros molares avaliados. Dos 308 terceiros molares avaliados, 105 apresen-taram anomalias (37,7%). A anomalia dentária mais prevalente foi a dilaceração radicular, apresentando 96 casos (34,5%), seguida de 5 casos de microdontia (1,79%), 3 casos de hi-percementose (1,07%) e 1 pérola de esmalte (0,35%). Conclusão: A partir deste estudo foi observado que as anomalias em terceiros molares são comuns. Além disso, a dilaceração foi a anomalia mais prevalente na amostra estudada, sendo importante o cirurgião-dentista utilizar exames de imagem no planejamento de uma extração dentária.


Objective: The purpose of this study was to determine the prevalence of dental anomalies in third molars. Materials and methods: This cross-sectional and retrospective study analyzed the cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) of patients with third molars. Dental anomalies were investigated and recorded in a table previously designed for the study. Other information such as sex and age were registered. Results: 151 patients were included in the sample, totaling 308 third molars evaluated. Out of 308 teeth, 105 had anomalies (37.7%). The most prevalent dental anomaly was the root tear, 96 cases (34.5%). The second was microdontia, 5 cases (1.79%); hypercementosis, 3 cases (1.07%); and enamel pearl, 1 case (0 .35%). Conclusion:We observed that third molar anomalies are common and that laceration was the most prevalent anomaly in the sample. Thus, dentists need to use imaging tests in planning a tooth extraction.

ABSTRACT

Although Leishmania infantum is well-known as the aethiological agent of visceral leishmaniasis (VL), in some Central American countries it may cause atypical non-ulcerated cutaneous leishmaniasis (NUCL). However, the mechanisms favoring its establishment in the skin are still unknown. Lipophosphoglycan (LPG) is the major Leishmania multivirulence factor involved in parasite-host interaction. In the case of viscerotropic L. infantum, it causes an immunosuppression during the interaction with macrophages. Here, we investigated the biochemical and functional roles of LPGs from four dermotropic L. infantum strains from Honduras during in vitro interaction with murine macrophages. LPGs were extracted, purified and their repeat units analysed. They did not have side chains consisting of Gal(β1,4)Man(α1)-PO4 common to all LPGs. Peritoneal macrophages from BALB/c and C57BL/6 were exposed to LPG for nitric oxide (NO) and cytokine (TNF-α and, IL-6) production. LPGs from dermotropic strains from Honduras triggered higher NO and cytokine levels compared to those from viscerotropic strains. In conclusion, LPGs from dermotropic strains are devoid of side-chains and exhibit high pro-inflammatory activity.

ABSTRACT

O carcinoma espinocelular (CEC) é a neoplasia maligna que mais acomete a cavidade bucal. O objetivo deste trabalho foi apresentar um caso com apresentação clínica atípica de CEC em lábio inferior num paciente HIV positivo. Paciente do gênero masculino, leucoderma, 59 anos, portador do vírus HIV, apresentava queixa de ardência no lábio inferior. Na história pregressa, relatou ter sido submetido à biópsia incisional do lábio inferior com o diagnóstico de displasia epitelial leve. Ao exame físico intrabucal apresentava o lábio inferior com um quadro compatível de queilite actínica. Na sua região central do lábio, ele se queixava de formigamento e dor do tipo "fisgada". Após duas semanas de acompanhamento, o paciente relatou piora na dor. Foi feita uma biópsia incisional da região afetada. O exame anatomopatológico foi compatível com CEC. O paciente foi encaminhado para a equipe de cirurgia de cabeça e pescoço e foi feita uma vermelhenectomia do lábio inferior. Após quatro meses, o paciente revelou ausência de sintomas e aspecto clínico normal. Pacientes HIV positivos podem apresentar maior predisposição às neoplasias malignas, diante do seu quadro de imunossupressão. O presente caso enfatiza a atenção ao exame de boca de pacientes portadores do HIV, bem como valoriza a queixa do paciente, a qual já revelava alterações sensoriais da região afetada. Vale ressaltar que os aspectos clínicos de um CEC geralmente são de uma úlcera assintomática, tendo o presente caso uma apresentação clínica atípica.


Squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) is a malignant neoplasm that most affects the oral cavity. The aim of this study was to present a case with a clinical presentation of SCC on the lower lip in an HIV positive patient. A 59-year-old male patient, leucoderma, with HIV virus, complained of burning sensation in the lower lip. In the previous history, he reported having undergone an incisional biopsy of the lower lip with the diagnosis of mild epithelial dysplasia. On intra-oral physical examination, he presented her lower lip with a compatible picture of actinic cheilitis. In his central area of the lip, he complained of tingling and "hooked" pain. After two weeks of follow-up, the patient reported worsening in pain. An incisional biopsy of the affected region was performed. The anatomopathological examination was compatible with SCC. The patient was referred to the head and neck surgery team and a lower lip vermelhenectomy was performed. After four months, the patient showed no symptoms and a normal clinical appearance. HIV positive patients may be more prone to malignant neoplasms, given their immunosuppression. The present case emphasizes the attention to the oral examination of patients with the HIV, as well as values the patient's complaint, which already revealed sensory changes in the affected region. It is worth mentioning that the clinical aspects of a SCC are usually asymptomatic ulcers, with the present case having an atypical clinical presentation.

ABSTRACT

Introdução: As comunicações buco-sinusais (CBS) são complicações cirúrgicas relativamente frequentes na prática odontológica, relacionadas à extração dos molares superiores. As CBS permitem a passagem de alimentos e outras substâncias para o interior do seio maxilar, propiciando, assim, quadros infecciosos conhecidos como Sinusites. O tratamento das CBS é desafiador. Objetivo: Relatar um caso clínico de fístula bucossinusal tratada pela técnica de fechamento com o corpo adiposo bucal. Relato de caso: paciente do gênero masculino, 59 anos, leucoderma, sem alterações de ordem sistêmica, compareceu ao ambulatório de Pós-graduação da Universidade do Sagrado Coração relatando como queixa principal o fato de "sair líquidos pelo nariz" durante alimentação e havia iniciado após realizar exodontia de raiz residual do dente 16. O mesmo relatou que após a exodontia foi realizada uma tentativa de fechamento da fístula buco-sinusal através do reposicionamento do retalho vestibular e não foi obtido sucesso. Após 45 dias de condicionamento da mucosa do seio maxilar através de irrigações com soro fisiológico e clorexidina a 0,12% foi proposto ao paciente e realizado o fechamento da fístula buco-sinusal através da utilização do corpo adiposo bucal. Conclusão: atualmente para se alcançar o alto índice de sucesso no fechamento de comunicações busco-sinusais utilizamos esta técnica descrita, por ser um procedimento simples e que porprociona resultados satisfatórios ao paciente.


Introduction: Bucosinusal communications are relatively frequent surgical complications in dental practice. Although several conditions are related to this type of communication, the exodontia of upper posterior teeth presents as the main etiological factor. They are diagnosed through fistulas, which communicate the buccal and sinus cavities, thus allowing the passage of food and other substances into the maxillary sinus, thus providing infectious pictures known as Sinusites. Objective: through the report of a clinical case of buccosalusal fistula, we will focus on the success of the closure of buccomasinal communication with Bichat Adipose Body. Technique report: male patient, 59 years old, leucoderma, with no systemic alterations, who attended the University of the Sacred Heart Postgraduation outpatient clinic reporting as a main complaint the fact of "getting fluids through the nose" during feeding and that this had started after performing a residual root exodon of element 16. It also reported that after the exodontia, an attempt was made to close the buccosinusal fistula through the repositioning of the vestibular flap and no success was achieved. After 45 days of conditioning the maxillary sinus mucosa through irrigations with saline solution and 0.12% chlorhexidine, the patient was proposed and the buccosinusal fistula was closed using the Bichat Adipose Body. Conclusion: Today, in order to achieve the high success rate in the closure of buscossinusal communications, we use the Bichat Adipose Body, because it is a simple procedure and provides satisfactory results for the patient.

ABSTRACT

O objetivo deste estudo foi revisar na literatura científi ca os efeitos dos fl avonoides do cacau na prevenção e no tratamento de doenças cardiovasculares. Foi realizada uma busca sistematizada nas bases de dados PubMed, SciELO e Trip Data Base, incluindo ensaios clínicos que tiveram intervenção com fl avonoides do cacau, em adultos e idosos, realizados entre os anos de 2008 e 2018. Os descritores em saúde utilizados para a pesquisa foram: "fl avonoids", "cocoa", "dark chocolate" e/ou "cardiovascular diseases". Após análise de doze ensaios clínicos, foi observado melhora nos parâmetros antropométricos e de perfi l glicêmico; redução de colesterol total, lipoproteínas de baixa densidade, triglicerídeos, pressão arterial e de pulso; bem como aumento das lipoproteínas de alta densidade. Além disso, houve diminuição de marcadores infl amatórios, de adesão celular, de estresse oxidativo, do índice de amplifi cação, da velocidade da onda de pulso e da endotelina-1; assim como aumento da dilatação fluxo-mediada, do diâmetro da artéria braquial e do fluxo sanguíneo. Os dados encontrados suportam as alegações de que há efeito benéfico do consumo de flavonoides do cacau sobre a prevenção e o tratamento de doenças cardiovasculares


The aim of this study was to review in the scientific literature the effects of cocoa flavonoids on the prevention and treatment of cardiovascular diseases. A systematic search was carried out in the PubMed, Trip Data Base and SciELO database, including clinical trials covering interventions with cocoa flavonoids, in adults and in the elderly, between the years 2008 and 2018. The health descriptors used for the survey were: "flavonoids", "cocoa", "dark chocolate" and/or "cardiovascular diseases". After reviewing 12 clinical trials, we observed improvement in the anthropometric and glycemic profile parameters; reduction in total cholesterol, low density lipoprotein, triglycerides, blood and pulse pressure; as well as increase in high density lipoprotein. Furthermore, there was a decrease in inflammatory, cell adhesion and oxidative stress markers, augmentation index, pulse wave velocity and endothelin-1; there was also an increase of flow-mediated dilation, brachial artery diameter and blood flow. The data found support the claim that there is a beneficial effect in the consumption of cocoa flavonoids on the prevention and treatment of cardiovascular diseases.

ABSTRACT

Introdução: As lesões vasculares da cavidade bucal são representadas por hemangiomas ou más-formações vasculares, varizes e menos comumente flebotromboses. Os sítios de maior acometimento são: lábios, mucosa jugal e língua. Os aspectos clínicos são de lesões nodulares ou papulares, pequenas e bem circunscritas, de coloração avermelhada, consistência resiliente, superfície lisa ou moriforme. A diascopia é uma manobra semiotécnica utilizada na diferenciação entre lesões vasculares e máculas. As principais modalidades de tratamento para as lesões vasculares são: excisão cirúrgica, crioterapia, uso de corticóides, escleroterapia e eletrocoagulação. Objetivo: Relatar três casos clínicos de lesões vasculares pequenas na cavidade bucal, tratadas através da excisão cirúrgica das lesões. Resultados e Discussão: Todos os casos evoluíram com um ótimo trans e pós-operatório. O exame anatomopatológico das mesmas revelou dois casos de hemangiomas e um de flebotrombose. A decisão de abordar cirurgicamente as lesões vasculares foi considerada frente aos aspectos clínicos de lesões bem circunscritas, pequenas, palpáveis, boa localização, sem comprometer estruturas nobres anatômicas. Conclusão: A excisão cirúrgica, abordada através de biópsia excisional de lesões pequenas vasculares, é uma opção viável de tratamento, sem complicações trans e pós-operatórias quando corretamente indicadas e executadas.


Introduction: Vascular lesions of the buccal cavity are represented by hemangiomas or vascular malformations, varicose veins and, less commonly, phlebotrombosis. The sites of major involvement are: lips, jugal mucosa and tongue. Clinical features are small, well circumscribed nodular or papular lesions of reddish color, resilient consistency, smooth or moriform surface. Diascopy is a semi-technical maneuver used in the differentiation between vascular lesions and macules. The main treatment modalities for vascular lesions are: surgical excision, cryotherapy, use of corticoids, sclerotherapy, electrocoagulation. Objective: of this present study was to report three clinical cases of small vascular lesions in the oral cavity, which after a well done clinical examination, the team planned the surgical excision of the lesions and the anatomopathological examination revealed two cases of hemangiomas and one of phlebotrombosis. Method: The decision to surgically approach the vascular lesions of this study was considered against the clinical aspects of well circumscribed and small, palpable lesions, good location, without compromising anatomical noble structures. Results: All cases evolved with a good postoperative period. Conclusion: that surgical excision, treated as an excisional biopsy of small vascular lesions, is a viable treatment option, without trans and postoperative complications when correctly indicated and performed.

ABSTRACT

Abstract The present study aimed to investigate the use of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) on tooth extraction sites in rats treated with bisphosphonates. Thirty Albinus Wistar male rats were administered 0.035 mg/kg zoledronic acid intravenously for 8 weeks, divided into four administrations with a 2-week interval between each application, after which their upper right central incisors were extracted to induce the development of bisphosphonate-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (BRONJ). The samples were divided into the following two groups: Group 1 (G1) underwent marginal resection of BRONJ followed by the use of PRP, while Group 2 (G2) underwent resection of BRONJ but without the use of PRP. The treatment groups were evaluated after 14, 28, and 42 days. Clinical, microtomographic, microscopic, and immunohistochemical (IHC) evaluations were performed. Microtomography results revealed no significant difference between the groups (p <0.05) in any time period. Histomorphometric analysis showed increased bone formation over time for both groups (p < 0.001). G1 demonstrated a greater amount of new bone formation than G2 at 28 and 42 days (p < 0.001), with G1 presenting greater vascularization and a slightly higher VEGF expression. For both groups, RANKL/OPG expression levels were sufficient as a parameter for indicating the rate of bone remodeling in a previously treated area of osteonecrosis groups. Taken together, our findings indicated that the use of PRP improves the resolution process of BRONJ.

ABSTRACT

Introdução: O envelhecimento da população está associado ao aumento da incidência da doença de Alzheimer (DA), a qual causa graves complicações ao paciente. Os nutrientes imunomoduladores, como os ácidos graxos poli-insaturados (PUFAs) da série ômega 3 (w-3) podem auxiliar na melhora do quadro clínico da DA. Objetivo: Analisar o efeito da suplementação de PUFAs w-3 isolado ou associado na população idosa com DA. Material e Métodos: Trata-se de uma revisão sistemática de literatura científica nas bases de dados Pubmed e Science Direct, que englobou ensaios clínicos em idosos com provável e/ou comprovado diagnóstico de DA e suplementados com PUFAS w-3 isolado ou associado, no idioma inglês e com os seguintes descritores em saúde (DECs): brain, Alzheimer's disease, fatty docosahexaenoic acid(DHA), polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA), older and elderly people e termo de pesquisa: eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA). O recorte temporal das publicações foi delimitado de 2006 a 2017. Resultados: foram selecionados 10 ensaios clínicos, cuja suplementação de w-3 favoreceu menor declínio no score de miniexame de estado mental (MEEM), retardo da disfunção, melhora no domínio de agitação do inventário neuropsiquiátrico (NPI) e melhora dos sintomas depressivos pela Escala de Depressão de Montgomery-Asberg (MADRS). Foram observadas mudanças significativas como aumento de apetite, peso, índice de massa corporal (IMC), EPA e DHA, além de reduções nos níveis séricos de albumina, ácido araquidônico (AA), ácido mirístico, interleucina-6 (IL- 6), interleucina 1 ß (IL-1ß) e fator estimulante de colônias de granulócitos (G-CSF) e redução na liberação de prostaglandina F2α (PGF2α). Foram relatadas alterações positivas em alguns genes e em outros, redução de sua expressão, além de hipometilação de importantes genes. Conclusão: A suplementação de PUFAs w-3 exerceu efeito positivo em pacientes com DA grau leve a moderado.


Introduction: Aging of the population is associated with an increased incidence of Alzheimer's disease (AD), which causes severe complications to the patient. Immunomodulatory nutrients such as polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) of the omega-3 (w-3) series may help improve the clinical picture of AD. Objective: To analyze the effect of supplementation of isolated or associated w-3 PUFAs in patients with AD. Material and Methods: This is a systematic review of the scientific literature in the Pubmed and Science Direct databases, which included clinical trials in elderly people with probable and / or proven diagnosis of AD supplemented with isolated or associated PUFAS w-3, in English and with the following health descriptors (DECs): brain, Alzheimer's disease, fatty docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA), older and elderly people and search term: eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA).The time cut of publications was delimited from 2006 to 2017. Results: a total of 10 clinical trials were selected, whose w-3 supplementation favored a smaller decline in the Mini Mental Status Examination (MMSE) score, delayed dysfunction, improved neuropsychiatric inventory (NPI) agitation, and improved depressive symptoms by the Montgomery-Asberg Depression Scale (MADRS). Significant changes were observed as increased appetite, weight, body mass index (BMI), EPA and DHA, as well as reductions in serum albumin levels, arachidonic acid (AA), myristic acid, interleukin-6 (IL-6), interleukin 1ß (IL-1ß), and granulocyte colony stimulating factor (G-CSF) and reduced clearance of prostaglandin F2α (PGF2α). Positive alterations have been reported in some genes and in others, reduction of their expression, besides hypomethylation of important genes. Conclusion: Supplementation of PUFAs w-3 had a positive effect in patients with mild to moderate AD.

ABSTRACT

Introdução: os procedimentos odontológicos são comumente relacionados à dor e ao desconforto. Em função disso, a maioria dos pacientes apresenta diferentes graus de ansiedade e medo que podem prejudicar a realização do tratamento. Visando controlar a dor e a ansiedade desses pacientes, cada vez mais estão surgindo estudos relacionados aos fármacos utilizados em Odontologia, dentre eles os anestésicos locais. Objetivo: comparar a eficácia dos anestésicos locais articaína, bupivacaína, lidocaína e mepivacaína em cirurgias para extração de terceiros molares inferiores de acordo com tempo de indução, tempo de duração, quantidade de tubetes ministrados e intensidade de dor pós-operatória. Métodos: foram selecionados 60 pacientes que apresentavam terceiros molares inferiores em posição simétrica com indicação para extração. Esses pacientes foram divididos em 4 grupos de 15 indivíduos. Cada grupo recebeu um dos quatro tipos de anestésicos locais de maneira aleatória. As cirurgias foram realizadas por dois cirurgiões-dentistas experientes. Os dados relacionados ao tempo de indução, quantidade de anestésico e horário do início e do término das cirurgias foram anotados, as demais informações foram relatadas pelos próprios pacientes através do preenchimento de um questionário. Resultados e Discussão: a variável "episódios de dor" não apresentou diferenças estatisticamente significantes entre os grupos. Os anestésicos articaína e bupivacaína apresentaram o menor e o maior tempo de indução, respectivamente. A articaína foi o anestésico local que necessitou do menor número de tubetes para realização das cirurgias, enquanto que a bupivacaína foi o anestésico que precisou de mais tubetes. A bupivacaína também foi o anestésico local que apresentou maior tempo de duração da anestesia, seguido pela articaína, lidocaína e mepivacaína, respectivamente. A variável "intensidade de dor pós-operatória" não apresentou diferenças estatisticamente significantes. Conclusão: concluiu-se que os episódios de dor pós-operatória podem não estar relacionados ao anestésico local utilizado e que, no conjunto dos parâmetros avaliados, a articaína parece ser o anestésico local que apresenta mais vantagens na realização de cirurgias de extração de terceiros molares inferiores.


Introduction: dental procedures are commonly related to pain and discomfort leading most patients to have different degrees of anxiety and fear that may impair the performance of treatment. Aiming to control the pain and anxiety of these patients, more and more studies are being developed related to drugs used in Dentistry, among them local anesthetics. Objective: to compare the effectiveness of local anesthetics Articaine, Bupivacaine, Lidocaine and Mepivacaine for lower third molar removal according to: time to onset, period of duration of the anesthesia, number of cartridges and intensity of postoperative pain. Methods: sixty patients underwent removal of symmetrically positioned lower third molars in accordance to the classifications of Winter and Pell and Gregory, through panoramic radiographs. The patients were divided into 4 groups of 15 patients. Each group received randomized one of the four types of local anesthetics. The surgeries were realized by two oral and maxillofacial surgeons. The data related to time to onset, number of cartridges and time of the beginning and end of the surgeries were written down. Additional information was reported by the patients through a questionnaire. Results: The variable "pain" did not present statistically significant differences among the groups. Articaine and bupivacaine presented the shortest and the longest time to onset, respectively. Articaine was the local anesthetic which employed the smallest number of cartridges, considering that bupivacaine employed the highest number of cartridges. Bupivacaine presented the longest period of anesthesia, followed by articaine, lidocaine and mepivacaine. The parameter "intensity of postoperative pain" did not present statistically significant differences. Conclusions: according to the analyzed parameters we conclude that postoperative pain does not depend on the local anesthetics employed; Bupivacaine is the local anesthetic with the longest period of anesthesia; Articaine is the most indicated anesthetic for this type of procedure.

ABSTRACT

Introdução: a osteonecrose dos maxilares associada ao uso de bisfosfonatos (OMMBF) é uma complicação bucal importante. Com o relato de casos clínicos atípicos, os quais apresentaram a OMMBF, o rompimento da mucosa bucal adjacente se encontrou ausente, levantou-se discussão sobre essa variante clínica. Objetivo: avaliar casos de osteonecrose medicamentosa dos maxilares (OM), sem exposição óssea clínica, diante da escassez de investigações sobre essa variante clínica. Metodologia: Após o parecer favorável do Comitê de Ética, foram avaliados, retrospectivamente, 35 prontuários e exa mes radiográficos de pacientes com o diagnóstico de OM. Foram incluídos no estudo somente os casos de OM sem exposição óssea clínica e excluídos os pacientes que foram tratados através de radioterapia de cabeça e pescoço, além dos que apresentaram exposição óssea clínica. Através dos prontuários selecionados, foram coletadas as seguintes informações: idade e gênero do paciente, tipo de doença sistêmica, tipo de bisfosfonato, tempo de uso do bisfosfonato, forma de administração do medicamento. Análise radiográfica foi realizada utilizando radiografia panorâmica. Os maxilares foram divididos em sextantes para avaliação da presença de: osteólise, sequestro ósseo, esclerose óssea, reação periosteal, anormalidades na lâmina dura, presença de fratura patológica. Resultados: apenas cinco pacientes foram incluídos neste estudo, sendo todos oncológicos e do gênero feminino. A idade média foi de 57.6 meses, o tipo de bisfosfonato foi o Zometa, administrado de forma intravenosa, com o tempo médio de 114 meses. Com relação ao estudo radiográfico, esclerose óssea foi a alteração mais encontrada, seguida de osteólise e anormalidades da lâmina dura. A mandíbula foi mais afetada que a maxila. Conclusão: através deste estudo, foi concluído que pacientes com OM associada ao uso de bisfosfonatos, sem exposição óssea, apresentaram alterações radiográficas importantes, enfatizando a importância de uma análise radiográfica criteriosa em pacientes que fazem o uso de drogas antirreabsortivas, na tentativa de prevenir ou diagnosticar precocemente as alterações ósseas.


Introduction: osteonecrosis of the jaw associated with the use of bisphosphonates (OMMBF) is an important oral complication. With the report of atypical clinical cases, which presented the OMMBF with absent rupture of the adjacent oral mucosa raised discussion about this clinical variant. Objective: the aim of this study was to evaluate cases of Medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (OM) without clinical bone exposure, given the paucity of research on this clinical variant. Methods: following the favorable decision of Ethics Committee, it was evaluated, retrospectively, medical records and panoramic radiographs of patients diagnosed with OM. The study included only cases of OM without clinical bone exposure. Patients treated by head and neck radiation therapy or presenting clinical bone exposure were excluded. Through the selected records were collected the following information: age and gender of the patient, type of systemic disease, type of bisphosphonate, time of use and its administration. Radiographic analysis was performed using panoramic radiograph. The jaws were divided into sextants to assess the presence of: osteolysis, bone sequestration, bone sclerosis, periosteal reaction, abnormalities in the lamina dura, presence of pathological fracture. Results: only five patients were included in this study, all of oncological and female. The average age was 57.6 months, the type of bisphosphonate Zometa was administered intravenously with the average time of 114 months. Regarding the radiographic study, bone sclerosis was the most frequent finding, followed by osteolysis and abnormalities of the lamina dura. The mandible was more affected than the maxilla. Conclusion: through this study, it was concluded that patients with OM without bone exposure, present significant radiographic changes, emphasizing the importance of radiographic analysis in patients who make use of antiresorptive drugs in an attempt to prevent or diagnose early bone changes.

ABSTRACT

Abstract It is largely known that some oral diseases can be diagnosed based upon their clinical manifestation combined with the patient's medical history and generally not depending on examination. This is the case of some bone diseases such as osteoradionecrosis of the jaw (ORNJ), osteomyelitis of the jaw (OMJ), and medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (MRONJ). The present study aimed to analyze the histopathological features of these specific bone diseases in order to evaluate similarities and differences. Forty-four bone specimens resected from each bone disease (22 cases of ORNJ, 6 cases of OMJ, and 16 cases of MRONJ) were analyzed by two experienced oral pathologists without prior knowledge of the diagnosis, considering bone tissue condition, inflammation, vascularization, and the presence of microorganisms. In addition, the examiners formulated a diagnostic hypothesis for each specimen. Many histopathological similarities were found among the diseases, especially considering the presence of necrotic bone, inflammation, and microorganisms. Statistically significant differences were detected in empty bone lacunae, which was decreased in ORN (p = 0.042), and considering neutrophil count, which was low in the MRONJ group (p ≤ 0.001). The Kappa coefficient was calculated and agreement was detected based on the histopathological parameters, but not for diagnostic suggestion (p=0.23). In conclusion, histopathological aspects of ORNJ, OMJ, and MRONJ do not permit a conclusive diagnosis, emphasizing the necessity of a detailed clinical report.

ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT: Purpose Zygomatic implants (ZI) constitute a suitable alternative for treating severe maxillary atrophy. However, a large number of complications associated with ZI have been reported in the literature. This paper presents the late complications associated with ZI during 12 years of experience in the same institution. Materials and methods All cases of ZI from 2000 to 2013 were retrospectively evaluated and the major complications relating to this type of rehabilitation were selected to report. Results The major complications found were: loss of implant, loss of osseointegration, bucco-sinusal communication, fenestration of alveolar mucosa, sinus pathology, and emergency palate fixations. Conclusion The clinical experience of the dental surgeon is critical in the success of zygomatic fixation. Furthermore, there should be careful planning of rehabilitation to reduce the rate of complications.

ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT The simple bone cyst,or traumatic bone cyst, solitary or idiopathic bone cavity is an intraosseous pseudocyst discovered through a panoramic radiographic examination. Commonly, the SBC is presented as an asymptomatic lesion, radiolucent, unilocular, without cortical expansion, with margins adorning vital tooth roots of the affected region. The literature has recommended that clinical and radiographic aspects of simple bone cyst are quite convincing as to diagnosis, so follow-up through clinical and radiographic examination has been suggested. This case illustrates an exuberant clinical case of simple bone cyst, which was presented as multilocular and expansive lesion in a 7-year-old patient. Surgical exploration was performed because her parents were anxious about the presumptive diagnosis of other more aggressive lesions. The diagnosis of SBC was confirmed. The case was monitored and, after three years, total bone remodeling of the affected area was observed. In conclusion, asymptomatic radiolucent lesions that suggest a strong presumptive diagnosis of a simple bone cyst can be clinically and radiographically monitored. However, clinical variations, as in the present clinical case, require confirmation of the diagnosis, which is performed through exploratory surgery. The establishment of the diagnosis affords the safest approach for both the professional and the patient.


RESUMO O cisto ósseo simples, ou cisto ósseo traumático, solitário ou cavidade óssea idiopática é um pseudocisto intra-ósseo descoberto através de um exame radiográfico panorâmico. Comumente, o cisto ósseo simples se apresenta como uma lesão assintomática, radiolúcida, unilocular, sem expansão de corticais, com margens festonando as raízes dentárias vitais da região afetada. A literatura tem recomendado que os aspectos clínicos e radiográficos do cisto ósseo simples são bastante convincentes do seu diagnóstico, portanto a proservação através de exame clínico e radiográfico tem sido sugerida. O presente caso ilustra um caso clínico de um grande cisto ósseo simples, o qual se apresentava multilocular e expansivo, numa criança de 7 anos. Diante da ansiedade dos pais e diagnóstico presuntivo de outras lesões mais agressivas, foi realizada a exploração cirúrgica, a qual confirmou o diagnóstico de cisto ósseo simples. O caso foi acompanhado e, após três anos, foi observada a total remodelação óssea da área afetada. Como conclusão, as lesões radiolúcidas assintomáticas que sugerirem um diagnóstico presuntivo muito indicativo de cisto ósseo simples, podem ser acompanhadas clínica e radiograficamente. Entretanto, as variações de apresentação clínica, como no presente caso clínico, requerem uma confirmação do diagnóstico, a qual é realizada através da exploração cirúrgica. O estabelecimento do diagnóstico torna a condução do caso mais segura para ambos o profissional e o paciente.
