ABSTRACT

Several dermocosmetic bases even without active substances, can increase the cutaneous hydration, resulting in a beneficial effect to the skin. The evidence and interpretation of possible hydration effect of formulations in the skin can be carried through by means of histopathological and histomorphometrical evaluation, a time that allows the analysis of the epithelial tissue, of dermis and also of the cellular characteristics. The objective of this research was to evaluate the skin hydration after exposition to the aqueous and hydroalcoholic bases and silicone emulsion. Swines had areas submitted to treatments during 15 days with three different formulations (F1 - aqueous gel, F2 - hydroalcoholic gel and F3 - silicone emulsion). By means of histometric and histopathological techniques were gotten the thickness of the epidermis and stratum corneum. Comparison of means was done using ANOVA followed by the Tukey test. The F1 provoked significant increase in the thickness of the epidermis. The formulaton F2 provoked significant reduction in the thickness of the epidermis and stratum corneum. F3 not presented significant difference in this structures. According to the study, the type of base chosen intervenes with the skin hydration.

ABSTRACT

Ações para se vencer uma doença dependem, fundamentalmente, do quanto se sabe acerca da mesma. Daí justificam-se os procedimentos adotados ao longo da história contra a tuberculose, outrora bizarros, hoje quimioterapêuticos e profiláticos. A era pré-quimioterápica da tuberculose foi marcadamente sombria, devido às altas taxas de morbidade e de mortalidade. Felizmente, com o advento dos quimioterápicos o quadro epidemiológico da doença mudou, alcançou-se o declínio por volta da década de 50 e a estabilidade até a década de 80. Mas, a tuberculose está de volta, atingindo números crescentes, em função de diversos fatores, entre eles, o descaso público e a falta de vontade política governamental, aumento da migração para e de áreas endêmicas da doença, surgimento de cepas multi-resistentes aos fármacos de uso corrente e, sobretudo da epidemia de infecção pelo HIV...
