ABSTRACT
Planteada la necesidad desde la Mesa Local Intersectorial de dar respuesta a la problemática de las violencias por motivo de género en el Municipio de Gral Paz y realizando nuevas apuestas que devengan en modos de abordaje, se conforma un grupo de trabajo constituido por tres psicólogas y una trabajadora social. Trabajadoras provenientes de la Dirección de Género, CPA (Centro provincial de adicciones), Patronato de Liberados y del Servicio de Salud Mental del hospital Municipal de dicha localidad. Creándose un dispositivo de atención para varones que han sido denunciados por violencia por motivo de género, desde un modelo de abordaje psico-socio-educativo, llamado "Taller de masculinidades". El objetivo de éste trabajo es dar cuenta del desarrollo y características de éste primer taller, recorrido de 12 encuentros, para el abordaje y prevención de la violencia por motivos de género a nivel territorial comunitario. Poniendo en relevancia el trabajo de articulación intersectorial que se ha requerido para el abordaje de ésta temática a nivel local.

Resumen: Introducción: La desproporción prótesis-paciente (DPP) tras cirugía valvular ocurre cuando el área efectiva de orificio protésico (AEO) es fisiológicamente demasiado pequeño en relación con el tamaño del paciente, lo que resulta en gradientes postoperatorios elevados. Material y métodos: Se realizó un estudio observacional retrospectivo. Se analizaron pacientes con estenosis aórtica sometidos a reemplazo de válvula aórtica durante el año 2010. Se calculó AEO/ASC postoperatorio, si AEO/ASC fue menor de 0,85 cm2/ m2 el paciente fue clasificado como desproporción prótesis-paciente. Los eventos clínicos analizados fueron: mortalidad por cualquier causa, recambio valvular, internación por insuficiencia cardiaca y la capacidad funcional al momento de la encuesta. Se realizaron estadísticas descriptivas para analizar las características de la población. Las variables categóricas se expresaron en porcentaje y las variables continuas en promedio y desviación estándar. El análisis estadístico se realizó con el software IBM® SPSS® 19. Resultados: Se analizaron 26 pacientes sometidos a reemplazo de válvula aórtica con un seguimiento a 6 años, 13 de ellos presentaron DPP y mayor porcentaje de disnea, internación por insuficiencia cardiaca y muerte por cualquier causa. La combinación de eventos clínicos en este grupo de pacientes fue del 53,9%. Conclusión: Se observó un mayor número de eventos cardiovasculares en aquellos pacientes que con des- proporción prótesis-paciente.
Abstract: Background: Prosthesis-patient mismatch (PPM) after aortic valve replacement is related to inferior long-term outcomes. The study aim was to describe the rate of cardiovascular events in patients with or without PPM. Methods: The study was based on a retrospective analysis of information obtained from the electronic medical record. All patients undergoing aortic valve replacement, with or without revascularization surgery during 2010 were included. The effective orifice area (EOA) of the prothesis was obtained based on prosthetic valve data from echocardiography recommendations, was related to body surface area (BSA). PPM was diagnosed when EOA / BSA was < 0.85 cm2/m2. Clinical results were evaluated in January 2017 through our electronic medical record data base and a telephone interview. Helsinki criteria for clinical research were respected. Results: 26 patients were analyzed (20 males) with mean age 64 (SD 11.5) years old. A mechanical prosthesis was implanted in 10 patients and a biological one in the remaining subjects. 13 patients had DPP (EOA/BSA 0.77 ± 0.06). At a mean follow up period of 2190 days 44% were in functional class (NYHA) II-III, 31% had been re-hospitalized for heart failure and 8% had died from cardiac causes (overall death rate 31%). The combined outcome rate (overall death, hospitalization for heart failure or re-replacement of the valve) was 54%. Among the 13 patients without PPM, 31% were in functional class II-III, there were no hospitalizations for heart failure and only 4 patients had died from cardiac causes. Combined outcome rate was 23%. Conclusions: PPM was a marker of poorer clinical results on a long term follow up of patients undergoing aortic valve replacement. Inferential statistical analysis was not performed due to the relatively low number of patients included.

OBJECTIVE: To analyze the presentation, follow-up and evolution of differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC) detected during pregnancy. SUBJECTS AND METHODS: Twenty nine women with DTC detected during pregnancy were analyzed. Group I (n = 13) was seen during pregnancy and DTC was diagnosed during gestation; detection of the nodule occurred during pregnancy (first trimester). Group II (n = 16) was seen after delivery; detection of the nodule occurred during pregnancy (second or third trimester). Complete thyroidectomy, ablative dose of radioactive iodine, and treatment with levothyroxine were performed. Follow-up: neck ultrasound; TSH, free T4, thyroglobulin, and anti-thyroglobulin antibodies with and without treatment with levothyroxine; and 131I whole body scans. Histological diagnosis, lymph node metastases, tumor size and stage, complications from pregnancy, and DTC evolution were evaluated. RESULTS: 100% of the patients had papillary thyroid carcinoma. Lymph node metastases were detected in 13 (44.8%), and invasion of adjacent extrathyroid tissue in 2 patients. Tumor size was larger in Group II: 22.1 ± 10.9 versus 13.9 ± 3.5 mm; p = 0.03. No differences were found in the tumor stages between groups. All patients had full-term pregnancies and healthy newborns. Follow-up: 5.7 ± 4.3 years; one patient had persistent disease. CONCLUSIONS: DTC detected during pregnancy had a favorable evolution. Surgery may be postponed to the post-delivery period, unless there are risk factors that justify it during pregnancy.
OBJETIVO: Analisar a apresentação, o seguimento e a evolução do câncer diferenciado da tiroide (CDT) durante a gestação. SUJEITOS E MÉTODOS: Vinte e nove mulheres com CDT detectado durante a gestação foram analisadas. O Grupo I (n = 13) foi atendido durante a gestação e o CDT foi diagnosticado durante a gravidez; a detecção do nódulo aconteceu durante a gestação (primeiro trimestre). O Grupo II (n = 16) foi atendido depois do parto; a detecção do nódulo aconteceu durante a gestação (segundo ou terceiro trimestre). Foram feitos a tiroidectomia, dose de iodo radioativo e tratamento com levotiroxina. Acompanhamento: ultrassom de pescoço; TSH, T4 livre, tiroglobulina, e anticorpos antitiroglobulina com ou sem tratamento com levotiroxina e imagens de corpo inteiro com 131I. Foram analisados o diagnóstico histológico, as metástases em linfonodos, estágio e tamanho do tumor e complicações da gestação e a evolução do CDT. RESULTADOS: Cem por cento das pacientes apresentaram carcinoma papilar da tiroide. Foram detectadas metástases em linfonodos em 13 (44,8%) pacientes e invasão de tecidos extratiroidianos adjacentes em duas pacientes. O tumor foi maior no Grupo II: 22,1 ± 10,9 versus 13,9 ± 3,5 mm; p = 0,03. Não foram observadas diferenças nos estágios dos tumores entre os grupos. Não houve partos prematuros e todos os recém-nascidos estavam saudáveis. Acompanhamento: 5,7 ± 4,3 anos; uma paciente apresentou doença persistente. CONCLUSÕES: O CDT detectado durante a gestação tem evolução favorável. A cirurgia pode ser adiada até o momento pós-parto, a não ser que haja fatores de risco que justifiquem a intervenção durante a gestação.
