ABSTRACT

Introducción: La lipodistrofia congénita de Berardinelli-Seip es un síndrome genético autosómico recesivo, caracterizado por la ausencia generalizada del tejido adiposo, el déficit de leptina y las alteraciones metabólicas incluidas la resistencia a la insulina, la esteatohepatitis y la hipertrigliceridemia. Objetivo: Definir los diferentes espectros clínicos y fisiopatológicos del síndrome y su relación con el fenotipo definiendo las estrategias terapéuticas actuales. Métodos: Se realizó una búsqueda bibliográfica no sistemática en las bases de datos Science Direct, EMBASE, LILACS, Redalyc, SciELO y PubMed. Los criterios de inclusión fueron publicaciones en inglés, portugués o español, en las que el título y las palabras clave, abordaban el tema planteado con una vigencia de 10 años. Se obtuvieron 50 artículos relacionados con el síndrome, de los cuales 30 fueron seleccionados para su revisión. Conclusiones: El diagnóstico de la enfermedad es principalmente clínico. Se establece en presencia de tres criterios mayores o la combinación de dos mayores con dos menores y/o por la identificación de variantes patogénicas por medio del estudio genético y molecular. La dieta y el ejercicio conjuntamente con la administración de la metreleptina son pilares fundamentales en el manejo de estos pacientes. El reconocimiento temprano del síndrome es esencial para prevenir las complicaciones, y brindar asesoría genética y reproductiva a los pacientes y familiares(AU)


Introduction: Berardinelli-Seip congenital lipodystrophy is an autosomal recessive genetic syndrome, characterized by the general absence of adipose tissue, leptin deficiency and metabolic alterations including insulin resistance, steatohepatitis and hypertriglyceridemia. Objective: To present the different clinical and pathophysiological spectra of the syndrome, its relationship with the phenotype, defining the current therapeutic strategies. Methods: A non-systematic bibliographic search was carried out in Science Direct, EMBASE, LILACS, Redalyc, SciELO and PubMed databases. The inclusion criteria were publications in English, Portuguese and Spanish, in which the title and keywords included information pertinent to the stated objective with a periodicity of 10 years, 50 articles were retrieved, and 30 of them were selected. Conclusions: The diagnosis of the disease is mainly clinical. It is established in the presence of three major criteria or the combination of two major and two minor criteria and/or by the identification of pathogenic variants through genetic and molecular studies. Diet and exercise together with the administration of metreleptin are fundamental pillars in the management of these patients. Early recognition of the syndrome is essential to prevent complications, allowing genetic and reproductive counseling to be provided to patients and their families(AU)

ABSTRACT

Abstract Familial lipodystrophy is a rare genetic condition in which individuals have, besides metabolic changes and body fat deposits, a type of cardiomyopathy that has not been well studied. Many of the patients develop cardiovascular changes, the most commonly reported in the literature being the expression of a type of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. This article, presented as a bibliographic review, reviews the clinical and cardiovascular imaging aspects in this scenario of cardiomyopathy in a rare metabolic disease, based on the latest scientific evidence published in the area. Despite the frequent association of congenital lipodystrophy and ventricular hypertrophy described in the literature, the pathophysiological mechanisms of this cardiomyopathy have not yet been definitively elucidated, and new information on cardiac morphological aspects is emerging in the aegis of recent and advanced imaging methods, such as cardiac magnetic resonance.


Resumo A lipodistrofia familiar é uma condição genética rara na qual indivíduos apresentam, além das alterações metabólicas e de depósitos de gordura físicos, um tipo de cardiomiopatia pouco estudada. Muitos dos pacientes desenvolvem alterações cardiovasculares, sendo a mais comumente reportada em literatura, a expressão de um tipo de cardiomiopatia hipertrófica. Este artigo, apresentado como uma revisão bibliográfica, revisa os aspectos clínicos e de imagem cardiovascular neste cenário de cardiomiopatia em doença metabólica rara, com base nas últimas evidências científicas publicadas na área. Apesar da frequente associação de lipodistrofia congênita e hipertrofia ventricular descrita em literatura, os mecanismos fisiopatológicos desta cardiomiopatia ainda não estão definitivamente elucidados, e novas informações do aspecto morfológico cardíaco surgem à égide de recentes e avançados métodos de imagem como a ressonância cardíaca magnética.

ABSTRACT

Resumo O artigo analisa a experiência de pessoas que vivem com a Síndrome de Berardinelli-Seip no Nordeste brasileiro. Este estudo qualitativo foi desenvolvido com onze interlocutores, sendo nove pessoas vivendo com a síndrome e duas mães. Para coligir as informações, utilizaram-se observação participante, caracterização social e entrevistas semiestruturadas. Os dados foram analisados por meio da técnica de codificação temática. Emergiram duas categorias: (1) 'o segredo é fechar a boca': gerenciamento da alimentação na vida cotidiana; e (2) 'ah, é uma travesti?' Corpo, gênero e masculinização. Concluiu-se que na experiência dos interlocutores seus agenciamentos e criatividade se traduziram em estratégias para gerenciamento da alimentação que integravam gostos, valores, hábitos, prescrições biomédicas e prazeres envolvidos em situações de comensalidade. No que tange à corporeidade, evidenciou-se que as representações e as experiências com o corpo apresentam desigualdades de gênero, na medida em que a mulher passa a ser alvo privilegiado de estigmas, preconceitos e discriminação na vida adulta.


Abstract This paper analyzes the experience of people living with the Berardinelli-Seip Syndrome in the Brazilian Northeast. This qualitative study was developed with eleven informants, namely, nine people living with the syndrome and two mothers. Information was gathered using participant observation, social characterization and semi-structured interviews. Data were analyzed by means of a thematic coding technique. Two categories emerged: (1) 'the secret is to shut your mouth': food management in daily life; and (2) 'Ah, is it a transvestite?' body, gender, and masculinization. We concluded that, in the experience of the informants, their negotiations and creativity translated into strategies for food management that integrated tastes, values, habits, biomedical prescriptions and pleasures involved in commensality situations. Regarding corporeality, it has been shown that representations and experiences with the body show gender inequalities, insofar as women become privileged targets of stigmas, prejudices and discrimination in adult life.

ABSTRACT

El síndrome Berardinelli es una enfermedad poco frecuente, con amplia heterogeneidad clínica y genética, clínicamente caracterizada por pérdida de tejido adiposo a nivel subcutáneo y de otros tejidos. Esta lipodistrofia generalizada congénita provoca hipertrofia muscular, asociada a trastornos endocrinos, con crecimiento acelerado durante la infancia, pubertad precoz e hiperglicemia. Está considerada una enfermedad metabólica rara, que se hereda de forma autosómico recesiva. En la actualidad se describen 4 variantes de este síndrome, con varios genes implicados. El objetivo de este trabajo es describir las características clínicas en una niña, en la cual su aspecto fenotípico recuerda este síndrome, por la lipodistrofia marcada y aumento de la musculatura desde la etapa de lactante, por lo cual se consideró necesaria la valoración en equipo multidisciplinario para su adecuado seguimiento y asesoramiento genético a sus familiares(AU)


Berardinelli syndrome is a rare disease, with broad clinical and genetic heterogeneity, and clinically characterized by loss of fatty tissue at subcutaneous level and of other tissues. This generalized congenital lipodystrophy causes muscle hypertrophy associated to endocrine disorders, accelerated growth at childhood, early puberty and hyperglycemia. It is considered as a rare metabolic disease and also recessive autosomal inheritance. Nowadays, four variants of the syndrome are described in which several gens are involved. The objective of this paper was to describe the clinical characteristics of a girl whose phenotypical aspect resembles this syndrome due to the marked lipodystrophy and increased musculature since her breastfeeding phase. Therefore, it was necessary to make an assessment by a multidisciplinary team for her adequate follow-up and the genetic counselling to her family(AU)
