ABSTRACT

The vertebral heart size is a method used to measure the cardiac dimension in order to identify the remodeling of the chambres in heart disease. This study aims to determinate the vertebral heart size values at right lateral and ventrodorsal radiographs views relating to canines weight and body area variations. For the purpose of the study 40 healthy dogs within the age of 1 to 6 years, males and females, with deep or intermediated thorax were selected, brachycephalic dogs were not included in the study; the dogs were separated in four groups: group 1(n=9) compound of dogs up to 5 kg; group 2 (n=8) with dogs from 5,1 to 10 kg; group 3 (n=12) with dogs from 10,1 to19 kg and group 4 (n=11) with dogs weighing more than 19,1 kg. The values of body score, body mass index and the thorax configuration where previously measured, as well as the VHS and the depth width ratio from the radiographs. The results demonstrated intervals of right lateral-lateral vertebral heart size 9.9 to 10.4v and ventro-dorsal vertebral heart size of 9.8-10.3v. The study results show that the vertebral heart size numbers did not correlate with weight or body area, regardless the type of radiography view. Therefore, it can be concluded that the vertebral heart size in right lateral and ventrodorsal radiography can be used to rate the cardiac area, not suffering influence by the dog's weight or body area.


O vertebral heart size é um método utilizado para mensurar a dimensão cardíaca visando identificar os remodelamentos das câmaras nas cardiopatias. O objetivo do estudo foi determinar os valores de vertebral heart size nas projeções radiográficas latero-lateral direita e ventro-dorsal conforme as variações do peso e área corporal. Para isso, foram selecionados 40 cães hígidos com idade entre 1 e 6 anos, machos e fêmeas, com padrão torácico intermediário e profundo, com exclusão dos braquicefálicos; os cães foram divididos em quatro grupos: grupo 1 (n=9) composto por cães de até 5 kg; grupo 2 (n=8) com cães de 5,1 a 10 kg; grupo 3 (n=12) com cães de 10,1 a 19 kg e grupo 4 (n=11) com cães acima de 19,1 kg. Os valores de escore corporal, índice de massa corporal e conformação torácica foram previamente mensurados, bem como os valores dos vertebral heart size a relação profundidade/largura torácica das radiografias. Os resultados demonstraram intervalos de vertebral heart size latero-lateral 9.9 a 10.4v e vertebral heart size ventro dorsal de 9.8-10.3v. Os valores não apresentaram correlação com o peso e área corporal nos grupos estudados, independente das projeções estudas. Assim, pode-se concluir que método vertebral heart size nas projeções estudadas é aplicável na avaliação da área cardíaca, não sofrendo influências do peso e área corporal canina.

ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND/AIMS: We investigated whether transthoracic echocardiography-suspected pulmonary hypertension (PH) affects survival in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) patients and examined factors associated with PH occurrence and survival. METHODS: This retrospective single-center study included 154 Korean SLE patients fulfilling the American College of Rheumatology criteria (January 1995 to June 2013). Student t test, Mann-Whitney U test, Kaplan-Meier curves, and log-rank tests were used for comparisons. RESULTS: A total of 35 SLE patients with PH (SLE/PH+) and 119 without PH (SLE/PH-) were analyzed. Higher percentages of interstitial lung disease, Raynaud's phenomenon (RP), World Health Organization functional classification III/IV, and cardiomegaly were found in SLE/PH+ compared to SLE/PH-. Furthermore, the Systemic Lupus International Collaborating Clinics/American College of Rheumatology Damage Index was significantly higher in SLE/PH+ (2.46 +/- 1.245 vs. 1.00 +/- 1.235), whereas survival rates were significantly higher in SLE/PH- in log-rank tests (p = 0.001). In multivariate analysis, the adjusted mortality hazard ratio (HR) for SLE/PH+ patients was 3.10. Subgroup analysis demonstrated a higher percentage of lupus nephritis in the SLE/PH+ patients who died (p = 0.039) and low complement-3 levels (p = 0.007). In univariate analysis, the mortality HR for SLE/PH+ patients with lupus nephritis was 4.62, whereas the presence of RP decreased the mortality risk in multivariate analysis; adjusted HR, 0.10. CONCLUSIONS: PH is an independent factor predicting survival in SLE patients. The presence of lupus nephritis resulted in an increased trend for mortality, whereas coexistence of RP was associated with a better survival prognosis in SLE/PH+ patients.

ABSTRACT

El Síndrome de POEMS (polineuropatía, organomegalia, endocrinopatía, pico gamma monoclonal ycambios en la piel) es una discrasia de células plasmáticas que se manifiesta con un característicoconjunto de trastornos para neoplásicos. Los cambios en la piel, como hiperpigmentación cutáneageneralizada, son debidos al aumento en la secreción del factor de crecimiento del endotelio vascular.Se reporta el caso de una mujer de 67 años de edad que se presentó con astenia, adinamia y uncuadro importante de anemia, asociados a diabetes mellitus, hipotiroidismo y polineuropatía motora ysensitiva de moderada intensidad. Sus cambios en la piel consistieron en hiperpigmentación, manchasvioláceas en los labios y acentuación de los pliegues de las manos. Los estudios subsecuentesevidenciaron el pico gamma monoclonal y la polineuropatía axonal sensitivo-motora en elelectromiograma. Se brindó el tratamiento quimioterapéutico correspondiente pero sufriócomplicaciones mielosupresoras por esta razón, desarrollo una neumonía intrahospitalaria y falleció aconsecuencia.


The POEMS syndrome (polyneuropathy, organomegaly, endocrinopathy, M-protein and skin changes)is a rare atypical plasma cell dyscrasia with characteristic para neoplastic manifestations. The skinchanges, as generalized skin hyperpigmentation, are related with elevated levels of vascularendothelial growth factor. We report a clinical case of 67 years old woman who presented withasthenia, adynamia and important anemia, associated to diabetes mellitus, hypothyroidism and amoderated intensity motor-sensitive polyneuropathy. The skin changes presented by this patientwere hyperpigmentation, violet spots in the lips and accentuation of the lines in the palm of the hand.Subsequent analysis showed the M–protein and the electromyography showed a motor-sensitivepolyneuropathy in both legs. Adequate chemotherapy was given but mielosuppressive effects wereshown, she acquired nosocomial pneumonia and died as consequence.

ABSTRACT

La aparición de hipertrofia cardíaca está mediada tanto por factores hemodinámicos como por factores no hemodinámicos. En este sentido, se ha descrito una relación positiva y significativa entre la masa ventricular izquierda (MVI) y la hemoglobina A1c en la hipertensión esencial. Además, los individuos hipertensos con diabetes tienen una mayor MVI que los pacientes no diabéticos hipertensos, pese a tener cifras de presión arterial similares. También se ha descrito que una mejora del control glucémico contribuye a la regresión de la hipertrofia ventricular izquierda en pacientes hipertensos con diabetes tipo 2, y que estos cambios se produjeron de forma independiente de la variación de la presión arterial. Por último, se ha publicado recientemente que “la efectividad de la glucosa” (que representa la capacidad de la glucosa para llevar a cabo por sí misma su propia desaparición en plasma, con independencia de los cambios dinámicos de la insulina basal) está fuertemente relacionada con la MVI en pacientes con hipertensión estadio 1 o con cifras de presión arterial normal-alta.

ABSTRACT

Introdução: A cardiomiopatia hipertrófica é a responsável pelo maior número de mortes súbitas ou inesperadas por problemas cardíacos, em atletas jovens, e, quando tentamos esclarecer o diagnóstico pela ecocardiografia tradicional, a simples presença de hipertrofia, muitas vezes, não permite distinguir a sua etiologia, como a hipertrofia dos atletas e a hipertrofia secundária à hipertensão arterial. O Doppler tecidual (DTI) pode auxiliar na diferenciação das referidas hipertrofias. Objetivo: Avaliar os valores do Doppler tecidual (TDI) no anel mitral, em pacientes com cardiomiopatia hipertrófica, hipertrofia hipertensiva e hipertrofia, induzida pelo exercício, em atletas saudáveis de alta performance. Métodos: Foram estudados 147 pacientes: 30 voluntários saudáveis (grupo controle); 49 atletas de alta performance, jogadores de futebol profissionais do fluminense Futebol Clube , da cidade do rio de Janeiro-RJ (grupo dos atletas), avaliados na classe 1 de weber pela ergoespirometria; 40 portadores de hipertensão arterial sistêmica moderada controlada, com hipertrofia ventricular esquerda e função ventricular preservada (grupo dos hipertensos)...

ABSTRACT

We present an 18-year-old male who sought medical attention due to exertional dyspnea of a few weeks' duration. His physical exam revealed an elevated jugular venous pressure, facial puffiness, muffled heart sounds, and mild lower extremity pitting edema. Chest X-ray showed cardiomegaly; and in echocardiography, huge intrapericardial masses with massive pericardial effusion were noted. The oinly noteworthy finding on abdominal ultrasonography and CT scan was the presene of ascites. The only abnormal laboratory results consisted of a hemoglobin level of 10.8 g/dl, a 1-hr ESR 77, CRP 34 mg/dl and LDH 771. Some 1500cc pericardial fluid was aspirated, and tow multilobated creamy-brown masses with foci of necrosis and hemorrhage were excised. Microscopically, hypercellular sheets of malignant round cells were seen. Based on morphology, a diagnosis of high-grade round cell sarcoma was made. Immunohistochemical markers were negative for cytokeratin, CD 34, desmin, and smooth muscle actin, while positive reactivity was noted only for vimentin. Therefore, the cells were mesenchymal in origin with no vascular, skeletal, or smooth muscle differentiation and the final diagnosis was undifferentiated sarcoma. The patient was discharged in good clinical condition and underwent chemoradiation therapy

ABSTRACT

Congenital diverticulum of heart is a rare entity, which may arise from the atria, atrial appendages, coronary sinus or the ventricles. A 3-year-old child presented with history of early fatigability for 6 months and recent upper respiratory tract infection. Chest X-ray and echocardiogram revealed marked right atrial enlargement. At surgery, a right atrial diverticulum was excised under cardiopulmonary bypass. Pathology revealed thickened endocardium with edema and myocardial fiber hypertrophy. Our experience with this rare congenital disease is presented along with a review of the literature.

ABSTRACT

M-mode echocardiography has been accepted as gold standard for measuring left atrial (LA) size. Electrocardiography (ECG) offers a simple, non-invasive, cost-effective and reproducible method to assess LA size and it is mostly in agreement with echocardiography though discrepancies exist. ECGs and echocardiograms were obtained in 100 consecutive patients suspected of having left atrial enlargement due to different underlying heart diseases. The diagnostic accuracy of six ECG criteria of LA enlargement were evaluated comparing with LA size in M-mode echo study. Various criteria were found to be poor to mildly sensitive (8% to 78%) but highly specific (85% to 100%) for left atrial enlargement. Morris Index (PTFV1) was found to be the best criterion having 76% sensitivity and 92% specificity. Combination of criteria enhances the sensitivity at the cost of specificity. Overall predictive index of electrocardiogram for left atrial enlargement is not encouraging.

ABSTRACT

El aleteo o flutter auricular es una arritmia rara en neonatos quedebería, sin embargo, tenerse en cuenta en pacientes que ingresancon insuficiencia cardíaca congestiva, asociada o no a miocardiopatía dilatada (taquicardiomiopatía). La morbilidad que presenta en el período agudo contrasta con el excelente pronóstico que se observa con el seguimiento a largo plazo. Las opciones terapéuticas son variadas, con diferentes tasas de éxito en distintos centros,y la cardioversión sincronizada es una alternativa que permitiría la resolución de la arritmia en la mayoría de los casos.Se describe un niño que comienza con síntomas en el períodoneonatal, y se diagnostica a los 35 días de vida. Se realizó cardioversión sincronizada y amiodarona con buena evolución.

ABSTRACT

O uso de esteróides anabolizantes com finalidades terapêuticas é importante para o tratamento de pacientes em fase de recuperação cirúrgica e para o tratamento de atrofias musculares, osteoporose e câncer de mama. Além disso, os esteróides previnem a perda e massa magra, reduzem o aumento de tecido adiposo e estimulam a eritropoiese. Essa experiência, no entanto, fez com que os anabolizantes passassem a ser utilizados com o objetivo de aumentar o desempenho físico como a aparência física são os dois maiores motivos para o uso de esteróides anavolizantes. Essa conduta favorece o uso indiscriminado e abusivo de esteróides, expondo seus usuários a riscos de saúde. Os esteróides anabolizantes são um subgrupo dos andrógenos, derivados da testosterona. Embora essas drogas podem aumentar o desempenho físico e melhorar a composição corporal, doses excessivas podem trazer diversas alterações deletérias, principalmente para o sistema cardiovascular.

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE: To describe chest radiographic findings and their clinical correlation in patients with scrub typhus diagnosed in Thailand and to determine abnormalities that assist in the diagnosis of scrub typhus. MATERIAL AND METHOD: Between July 2001 and December 2002, 130 patients with scrub typhus admitted to three hospitals in the northeastern Thailand were studied. Data of clinical presentations and chest radiographic findings, reviewed by two radiologists who were unaware of the final diagnosis, were analyzed. RESULTS: There were 33 women, 97 men; age range, 11-92 years; median age, 45 years old. Pulmonary symptoms occurred in 61.5% of the patients and eschar was found in 33.1%. Hepatic dysfunction occurred in 58.5% and cardiovascular dysfunction in 33%. Pulmonary involvement was the major presentation in 41.5%. Acute respiratory distress syndrome developed in 7 patients. Overall 5 patients died. The initial radiography showed abnormalities in 64.6% of the patients. Common radiographic abnormalities included bilateral reticular opacities (48.5%), cardiomegaly (28.5%), congestive heart failure (18.5%), air space nodules (13.1%), and pleural effusion (10.8%). Significant association between chest radiographic abnormalities and hepatic and cardiovascular dysfunction were documented. CONCLUSION: Chest radiography should be included in the initial evaluation of patients with suspected scrub typhus. Bilateral reticular infiltration, with or without cardiomegaly or congestive heart failure, was the most frequent radiographic finding of scrub typhus.

ABSTRACT

Para avaliar a associação entre massa ventricular esquerda e função sistólica e diastólica do ventrículo esquerdo e o polimorfismo inserção/deleção do gene da enzima de conversão da angiotensina e o polimorfismo M235T do gene do angiotensinogênio, realizamos ecocardiograma em 652 indivíduos da cidade de Vitória (Espírito Santo). Analisamos massa ventricular esquerda indexada pela área de superfície corpórea e pela altura2,13, fração de ejeção do ventrículo esquerdo e análise da função diastólica pelo fluxo mitral e pelo Doppler tecidual. Após análise univariada, não encontramos associação entre os polimorfismos analisados e índice de massa ventricular esquerda, função sistólica ventricular esquerda e os vários parâmetros de função diastólica...


To assess the association between left ventricular mass, left ventricular systolic and diastolic function, and polymorphisms of the insertion/deletion angiotensin-converting enzyme and M235T angiotensinogen genes, transthoracic echocardiography was performed in 652 adults from Vitoria, Brazil. We measured left ventricular mass indexed to body surface area and height2,13, left ventricular ejection fraction, and diastolic function using mitral flow and tissue Doppler. Univariate analysis showed no correlation between the studied polymorphisms, left ventricular mass index, and left ventricular systolic and diastolic function...

ABSTRACT

O exame cardiológico pré-participação do atleta tem por objetivo detectar possíveis anormalidades cardíacas, silenciosas ou não, que podem levar ao afastamento temporário ou definitivo do esporte e em alguns casos até a morte súbita durante o esporte. Os mais de 4 mil exames cardiológicos realizados desde 1975 em atletas amadores e profissionais seguiram esse protocolo abaixo: anamnese e exame clínico, eletrocardiografia em repouso, teste ergométrico (até exaustão), ecocardiografia com Doppler, radiografia do torax e análises laboratoriais (hemograma, perfil glicídico e lipidico, função renal, reações sorológicas para doença de Chagas). Muitas das alterações encontradas nos exames de rotina e que podem ser confundidas com cardiopatias são adaptações fisiológicas resultantes do treinamento intensivo e regular, compondo as característica conhecidas como síndrome do coração do atleta, cardiomegalia, distúrbios do ritmo e da condução, e alterações da repolarização ventricular no eletrocardiograma. Esses critérios, que definen as alterações como as de corações não-patológicos estruturalmente, são: retorno aos padrões normais após suspensão temporária da atividade esportiva, normalização das modificações eletrocardiográficas durante o teste ergométrico, funções sistólica e diastólica normais no ecocardiograma.

ABSTRACT

Este trabajo busca comprobar si los criterios de agrandamiento de cavidades izquierdas encontrados por el ecocardiograma. Objetivos: idnetificar los criterios de diagnósticos por electrocardiograma de hipertrofia ventricular izquierda y o dilaciónventricular izquierda y dilación auricular izquierda. Estabelcer la concordancia auricular izquierda. Materiales: estudio analítico de corte transversal. Se incluyeron pacientes de ambos sexos (54% femenino y 46% masculino). Reclutados desde el 1-05-05 al 10-07-05. Resultados: se incluyeron 150 pacientes, todos fueron estudiados con electrocardiograma y ecocardiograma con el mismo aparato y observador. Conclusiones: el hallasgo de agrandamiento de aurícula izquierda por electrocardiograma nos permite hacer el diagnóstico exacto solo ene un 75% y su ausencia no la descarta. Entre los criterios de agrandamiento de ventriculo izquierdo por electrocardiograma la mayoría de los criterios revelo una mayor concordancia con la hipertrofia ventricular izquierda, siendo el criterio de voltaje el demás elevado VP+ de hasta el 100%, contrariamente el análisis entre dichos criterios y la dilatación ventricular izquierda revelo un VP-mayor a 80 o sea que en ausencia de dichos criterios podemos afirmar que la mayoría de los pacientes no tienen dilatación ventricular izquierda con un VP-del 22%. La ausencia de criterios por electrocardiograma no presentó concordancia con ausencia de hipertrofia ventricular izquierda o dilatación ventricular izquierda por ecocardio. Teniendo en cuenta la escasa sensibilidad del electrocardiograma para captar hipertrofia ventricular izquierda y/o dilatación ventricular izquierda consideramos importante concluir que es conveniente completar el chequeo del paciente con ecocardiograma cuando la clínica nos hace sospechar que puede tener hipertrofia ventricular izquierda y/o dilatación ventricular izquierda.
