RESUMEN

Idiosyncratic drug-induced liver injury (IDILI) has long posed a challenging and pivotal concern in pharmaceutical research. The complex composition of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) has introduced a bottleneck in current research, hindering the elucidation of the component basis associated with IDILI in TCM. Using Epimedii Folium (EF) and Psoraleae Fructus (PF) as illustrative examples, this study endeavors to establish an in vitro evaluation model, providing a high-throughput and preliminary assessment method for screening components related to TCM-induced IDILI. A TNF-α-mediated HepG2 susceptible model was first established in this study, with the focus on the index components present in EF and PF. The release of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) in the cell supernatant served as the detection index. A concentration-toxicity response curve was constructed, and the hepatotoxic components of EF and PF were identified utilizing the synergistic toxicity index. The LDH results unveiled the hepatotoxic effects of bavachin, backuchiol, isobavachin, neobavaisoflavone, psoralidin, isobavachalcone, icarisid I, and icarisid II on both normal and susceptible cells, categorizing these 8 components as both direct hepatotoxicity components and idiosyncratic hepatotoxicity components. Bavachin and neobavaisoflavone exhibited no hepatotoxicity on normal cells but demonstrated significant effects on susceptible cells, designating them as potential idiosyncratic susceptible hepatotoxicity components. The study further delineated that 10 EF components and 3 PF components were direct immune-promoting hepatotoxicity components. Additionally, 14 idiosyncratic immune-promoting hepatotoxicity components were identified, encompassing 10 EF components and 4 PF components, with neobavaisoflavone, bavachinin, and isobavachin being potential idiosyncratic susceptible immune-promoting hepatotoxicity components. Synergistic toxicity index results indicated that 13 idiosyncratic immune-promoting hepatotoxicity components (except anhydroicaritin) combined with bavachin demonstrated synergistic hepatotoxicity on susceptible cells. Notably, 3 idiosyncratic susceptible immune-promoting hepatotoxicity components combined with bavachin exhibited synergistic hepatotoxicity, with neobavaisoflavone displaying the highest synergistic toxicity index and bavachinin the lowest. In summary, this methodology successfully screens hepatotoxic and immune-promoting hepatotoxic components in EF and PF, distinguishing the types of components inducing hepatotoxicity, evaluating the hepatotoxicity degree of each component, and elucidating the synergistic relationships among them. Importantly, these findings align with the characteristics of IDILI. The method provides an effective model tool for the fundamental research of TCM-related IDILI components.

RESUMEN

AIM: To investigate the effects of agkis-trodon halys venom anti-tumor component (AHVAC-) on the biological behavior of gastric cancer MKN-28 cells. METHODS: Gastric cancer MKN-28 cells were treated with the experimental concentrations (5, 10, 15 μg/mL) of AHAVC- for 24 h. Cell proliferation and toxicity assay (cell counting kit-8, CCK-8) was used to detect the inhibition rates of the cells in different concentrations of AHVAC-. The migration ability of the cells was evaluated by wound-healing and Transwell assay. The apoptosis were observed by laser confocal microscopy with annexin V-mCherry/DAPI double staining, and the apoptosis rates were analyzed by flow cytometry with annexin V-FITC/PI double fluorescence staining. The protein level of Caspease-3 was determined by Western blot. RESULTS: Compared with normal control group, the results of AHVAC- concentration groups showed that with the increase of AHVAC- concentration, the proliferative activity of MN-28 cells decreased gradually (P<0.01), the cell migration ability decreased gradually (P<0.01), and the cell apoptosis rate increased (P<0.05). The expression of apoptosis-related protein Caspease-3 was up-regulated (P<0.01). CONCLUSION: AHVAC- inhibits proliferation and migration of gastric cancer MSN-28 cells and induces apoptosis.

RESUMEN

OBJECTIVE To extract and isolate the four chemical components of Yao medicine Ventilago leiocarpa, and to conduct identification and content determination for them. METHODS The chemical components of V. leiocarpa were separated and purified by solvent extraction, extraction, silica gel column chromatography and preparative liquid chromatography; then the chemical structures of four isolated compounds were identified based on their spectral data. The contents of four components were determined by high performance liquid chromatography(HPLC)-quantitative analysis of multi-components by single-marker (QAMS) method, with the following chromatographic conditions: chromatographic column was Echway GowonTM C18 (250 mm× 4.6 mm, 5 μm). The mobile phase was acetonitrile-0.1% phosphoric acid for gradient elution; the detection wavelength was 269 nm, and the column temperature was 25 ℃ . Using emodin as internal reference, the relative correction factors (fi/s) between emodin and the other 3 components were established and used to calculate the content. At the same time, the content of each component was calculated with the external standard method (ESM), and the differences between these two methods were compared. RESULTS Four compounds were isolated from V. leiocarpa, and they were identified as emodin, frangulin A, pleuropyrone A, emodin-8-O-β-D-glucoside. The result of HPLC-QAMS showed that the fi/s of pleuropyrone A, emodin-8-O-β-D- glucoside and frangulin A were 1.147 2, 0.874 7 and 0.644 4, respectively. The content of these four components was measured as a good linearity (r≥0.999 6); relative standard deviation (RSD) of precision, stability and reproducibility tests were all lower than 2.00%, and average recoveries were E-mail:dearhuangjianyou@126.com 99.41%-100.46%(RSD≤2.05%). There was no significant difference between QAMS method and ESM (RSD<3.00%). CONCLUSIONS Emodin, frangulin A, pleuropyrone A and emodin- 8-O-β-D-glucoside are isolated from V. leiocarpa; among them, the last three components are all isolated from for the first time. The established HPLC-QAMS method is accurate and reliable for the determination of 4 components in V. leiocarpa, and can used for quality control of V. leiocarpa.

RESUMEN

Chinese materia medica has a wide range of clinical applications, but it has many active ingredients with different physicochemical properties, and the target organs, action pathways and mechanisms for different ingredients to exert their efficacy are not the same. Therefore, it is difficult to design and develop a co-delivery system loading multiple components of Chinese materia medica to maximize the synergistic therapeutic efficiency. Based on the characteristics of effectiveness and functionality of active ingredients, the strategies for multi-component co-delivery of Chinese materia medica can be categorized into two types:firstly, based on the effectiveness of active ingredients, new carriers such as liposomes, nanoparticles can be constructed to load multi-components of Chinese materia medica. secondly, based on the functionality of some active ingredients of Chinese materia medica, they are employed in the construction of co-delivery system, which can give play to the dual characteristics of their own efficacy and preparation functions. In this paper, we summarized the relevant research progress of the above two types of multi-component co-delivery strategies, and mainly discussed the pharmaceutical functions of the active ingredients in co-delivery systems, in order to find a more suitable multi-component co-delivery strategy, promoting the design and development of new delivery systems of Chinese materia medica.

RESUMEN

ObjectiveTaking Achyranthis Bidentatae Radix(ABR) from different origins as samples, to quantitatively analyze the chemical composition and chromaticity of ABR with different processing degrees, and clarify the correlation and change law between color and composition in the processing process of ABR, so as to provide reference for the quality evaluation of processed products of ABR. MethodThe colorimeter is used to measure the chromaticity values of three kinds of processing degrees of ABR in different origins to show the color value change trend during the processing process, and the color parameters of wine-processed and salt-processed products of ABR with different processing degrees were analyzed by principal component analysis(PCA), orthogonal partial least squares-discriminant analysis(OPLS-DA) and other analysis methods. The contents of eight representative components of ABR were measured by high performance liquid chromatography(HPLC), the correlation between chromaticity and each representative component was analyzed by Pearson correlation analysis, and the applicability of the selected eight representative components was further verified by Fisher linear discriminant analysis, and the wine-processed and salt-processed products of ABR with different processing degrees were grouped according to the degree of processing, and 48 samples of wine-processed and salt-processed products with different processing degrees were used as training samples. Taking the contents of 5-hydroxymethylfurfural, polypodine B, β-ecdysterone, 25R-inokosterone, 25S-inokosterone, ginsenoside Ro, chikusetsusaponin Ⅳa and polysaccharides as variables, the discriminant function was established respectively, and 12 samples of wine-processed and salt-processed products of ABR with different processing degrees were back-tested to verify the discriminant function and test the reliability of the function. ResultPCA and OPLS-DA results showed that ABR samples with different processing degrees were classified into clusters, and the results could significantly distinguish different processed products. During the process of wine and salt processing, the contents of 5-hydroxymethylfurfural, ginsenoside Ro, and chikusetsusaponin Ⅳa gradually increased with the deepening of the processing degree, while the contents of polypodine B, β-ecdysterone, 25R-inokosterone, 25S-inokosterone and polysaccharides showed a gradual decreasing trend, indicating these 8 components increased and decreased to different degrees in the process of wine and salt processing. The results of Pearson correlation analysis showed that the 5-hydroxymethylfurfural content of the samples with different processing degrees of wine-processed and salt-processed products were negatively correlated with the brightness value(L*) and the total color difference value(E*ab)(P<0.01), and positively correlated with the red-green value(a*) and the yellow-blue value(b*)(P<0.01), and that the content of polypodine B and polysaccharides were positively correlated with L* and E*ab(P<0.01). The discriminant functions of wine-processed and salt-processed products of ABR were established by Fisher linear discriminant analysis, and their accuracy rates in the training samples were 93.75% and 95.83%, respectively. Twelve test samples of wine-processed and salt-processed products with different processing degree were back substitution, and the correct rate was 100%. ConclusionThe trend of composition and color changes of ABR with different processing degrees in different production areas is relatively consistent, and the color value can better distinguish ABR with different processing degrees, and the color of ABR is related to some representative components in the processing process, indicating that the color can provide reference for the identification of the processing degree of ABR and the prediction of component content.

RESUMEN

In the quality control of Chinese medicine, the detection of active components and toxic and harmful components are two important links. Although conventional methods such as high performance liquid chromatography and liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry can accurately quantify the above substances, they have shortcomings such as complicated operation, high costs, inability of detection at any time, difficult detection of insoluble and macromolecular substances. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) can adsorb antigens or antibodies on the surface of solid carriers and realize qualitative or quantitative analysis of targets by using the specific reactions of antigens and antibodies. This method is praised for the simple operation, high sensitivity, strong specificity, simple requirements for experimental equipment, a wide application range, and low costs. In recent years, ELISA has been widely used in the quality control of Chinese medicine, especially in the content determination of mycotoxins represented by aflatoxin and the qualitative and quantitative analysis of active components. ELISA plays an increasingly important role with its unique advantages, providing new methods and ideas for the rapid quality examination of large quantities of Chinese medicines. This paper reviews the research progress in ELISA for the quality control of Chinese medicine in recent years and prospects its technical development and application prospects, aiming to provide reference and research ideas for further using this method to ensure the quality, safety, and controllability of Chinese medicine.

ObjectiveTo screen the differential markers by analyzing volatile components in Dalbergia odorifera and its counterfeits, in order to provide reference for authentication of D. odorifera. MethodThe volatile components in D. odorifera and its counterfeits were detected by headspace gas chromatography-mass spectrometry(HS-GC-MS), and the GC conditions were heated by procedure(the initial temperature of the column was 50 ℃, the retention time was 1 min, and then the temperature was raised to 300 ℃ at 10 ℃ for 10 min), the carrier gas was helium, and the flow rate was 1.0 mL·min-1, the split ratio was 10∶1, and the injection volume was 1 mL. The MS conditions used electron bombardment ionization(EI) with the scanning range of m/z 35-550. The compound species were identified by database matching, the relative content of each component was calculated by the peak area normalization method, and principal component analysis(PCA), orthogonal partial least squares-discrimination analysis(OPLS-DA) and cluster analysis were performed on the detection results by SIMCA 14.1 software, and the differential components of D. odorifera and its counterfeits were screened out according to the variable importance in the projection(VIP) value>2 and P<0.05. ResultA total of 26, 17, 8, 22, 24 and 7 volatile components were identified from D. odorifera, D. bariensis, D. latifolia, D. benthamii, D. pinnata and D. cochinchinensis, respectively. Among them, there were 11 unique volatile components of D. odorifera, 6 unique volatile components of D. bariensis, 3 unique volatile components of D. latifolia, 6 unique volatile components of D. benthamii, 8 unique volatile components of D. pinnata, 4 unique volatile components of D. cochinchinensis. The PCA results showed that, except for D. latifolia and D. cochinchinensis, which could not be clearly distinguished, D. odorifera and other counterfeits could be distributed in a certain area, respectively. The OPLS-DA results showed that D. odorifera and its five counterfeits were clustered into one group each, indicating significant differences in volatile components between D. odorifera and its counterfeits. Finally, a total of 31 differential markers of volatile components between D. odoriferae and its counterfeits were screened. ConclusionHS-GC-MS combined with SIMCA 14.1 software can systematically elucidate the volatile differential components between D. odorifera and its counterfeits, which is suitable for rapid identification of them.

ABSTRACT Introduction: In ice hockey games, the team's performance is influenced by many contextual factors, and understanding playing styles allows to reveal how key performance indicators vary under different situations. Objective: This research aims to explore the playing styles of elite ice-hockey teams and to identify key performance aspects under different final goal difference situations. Methods: This article analyzed compared the match performance of 31 National Hockey League teams during 1271 matches considering their playing styles and final goal difference. Results: The principal component analysis obtained 8 performance components describing the technical-tactical styles of the teams. The subsequent analysis found that there was significant difference between three match outcomes in unfavorable state, major penalties, puck possession maintaining ability, shot defending ability, aggressive performance (p<0.001; = 0.007-0.273). Conclusions: Higher-ranked teams winning the unbalanced games showed better performance in shot defending ability and aggressive performance. Lower-ranked teams losing in unbalanced games kept less possession of the puck and were more likely to be shorthanded (p<0.05, ES=0.131-1.410). The study demonstrates how playing styles can be used to contextualize key determinants from ice hockey games. Level of evidence I; Therapeutic Studies Investigating the Results of Treatment.

RESUMEN

Objetivos: Describir el patrón de variación de la forma de la arcada dentaria mandibular en una muestra de la Región Metropolitana mediante un estudio observacional, transversal. Métodos: Se digitalizaron 18 puntos de referencia en 134 fotografías estandarizadas de modelos de yeso y se realizó un análisis de Procusto para obtener los componentes de variación de la forma y el tamaño (tamaño del centroide= cs). Resultados: El tamaño de centroide en hombres es significativamente mayor que en mujeres. El análisis discriminante con validación cruzada no mostró diferencias significativas en los componentes de la forma según el sexo. Las diferencias en la forma de los arcos dentales, explicada por los dos primeros componentes de la forma correspondió al 73.4% de la varianza total (PC1= 50,14%, en el eje anteroposterior y PC2= 13,31% en el eje transversal). Conclusiones: De acuerdo con los resultados del presente estudio, se debe replantear el uso de plantillas preformadas en la determinación de la forma del arco dentario, dada la continuidad morfológica que se observa al realizar un análisis estadístico del patrón de variación en forma y tamaño del arco, como queda en evidencia al utilizar herramientas de morfometría geométrica.


Objetivos : Descrever o padrão de variação da forma do arco dentário mandibular em uma amostra populacional da Região Metropolitana, através de um estudo observacional transversal. Métodos : 18 pontos anatómicos em 134 fotografias padronizadas de moldes de gesso foram digitalizados e foi realizado uma análise Procrustes. Resultados : O tamanho do centróide nos homens é significativamente maior do que nas mulheres. A análise discriminante com validação cruzada de gênero não mostrou diferenças significativas nos componentes da forma. O padrão de variação na forma das arcadas dentárias é explicado principalmente por PC1 (50,1% da variação total, variação anteroposterior) e PC2 (13,3%, variação transversal). Conclusões : Dada a continuidade morfológica que se observa ao realizar uma análise estatística do padrão de variação da forma e tamanho da arcada, aplicando ferramentas morfométricas geométricas, o uso de templates pré-formados para determinação da forma da arcada dentária deve ser reconsiderado.


Objectives: Describe the pattern of shape variation of the mandibular dental arch in a sample from the Metropolitan Region through an observational, cross-sectional study. Methods: 18 landmarks on 134 standardized photographs of dental casts were digitized, and a Procrustes analysis was performed. Results: The size of the centroid in men was significantly larger than in women. Discriminant analysis with gender cross-validation did not show significant differences in the shape components. The variation pattern in the shape of the dental arches is mainly explained by PC1 (50.1% of the total variation, anteroposterior variation) and PC2 (13.3%, transverse variation). Conclusions: Given the morphological continuity that is observed when performing a statistical analysis of the variation pattern in shape and size of the arch applying geometric morphometric tools, the use of preformed templates for determining the shape of the dental arch should be reconsidered.

RESUMEN

Introducción. La población de personas mayores (PM) en Chile presenta un incremento sostenido con importantes tasas de fragilidad y riesgo de caídas (RC). El desempeño de marcha permite valorarlo mediante parámetros mecánicos y fisiológicos. Nos preguntamos, ¿cuáles podrían ser los más relevantes para estimar RC en condiciones de marcha confortable (MC) y máxima (MM)? Objetivo. Identificar los principales parámetros de marcha que podrían explicar RC en PM autovalentes de la comunidad. Métodos. Estudio observacional y transversal en el cual participaron 53 PM autovalentes de la comuna de Talca, Chile (edad 71±7años; IMC 29,1±3,4 kg/m2). Se solicitó a los participantes la ejecución de MC (n=53) y posteriormente MM (n=36). Ambas modalidades fueron desarrolladas en un circuito elíptico de 40m durante 3min. El RC se categorizó como: "sin riesgo", "riesgo dinámico" según prueba timed up and go (TUG) positiva, "riesgo estático" según estación unipodal (EUP) positiva y "riesgo mixto" con ambas pruebas positivas. Para la visualización de la variación gráfica en el morfoespacio de los individuos según RC, se realizó un análisis de componentes principales (ACP) mediante el Programa RStudio, utilizando 6 variables cinemáticas: i) velocidad promedio de marcha (VPM), ii) cadencia, iii) máximo despeje del pie (MDP), iv) coeficiente de variación (%CV) del MDP, v) longitud de zancada (LZ) y vi) %CV de la LZ. Además de 2 variables fisiológicas: i) % frecuencia cardiaca de reserva utilizada (%FCRu) y ii) el índice de costo fisiológico según la relación entre FC y VM (latidos/metros). Resultados. Para MC las dimensiones del ACP explican el 56% de la variabilidad de los datos, siendo los indicadores de seguridad de RC la VM, cadencia, LZ y MDP. La variabilidad de marcha explica RC mixto y el ICF junto al %FCRu se asocian a RC dinámico. En condiciones de MM, el ACP explica 60% de la variabilidad de datos, donde las PM sin RC se asocian con VM, LZ y MDP. Por su parte, la variabilidad del MDP se vincula con RC dinámico y las variables fisiológicas con el RC mixto. Conclusiones. Los parámetros de marcha que mejor explican una marcha segura y eficiente son cinemáticos de la fase de balanceo, mientras que la variabilidad y el costo fisiológico se asocian como indicadores de RC dinámico y mixto.


Background. Introduction: The elderly population (EP) in Chile is experiencing a sustained increase with significant rates of frailty and risk of falls (RF). Gait performance can be assessed using mechanical and physiological parameters. We wonder, which ones could be the most relevant to estimate RF in self-selected walking speed (SSWS) and maximum walking speed (MWS) conditions? Objective. Identify the main gait parameters that could explain RF in self-sufficient elderly individuals from the community. Methods. This observational and cross-sectional study included 53 self-sufficient elderly individuals from the commune of Talca, Chile (age 71±7 years; BMI 29.1±3.4 kg/m2). Participants were asked to perform SSWS (n=53) and subsequently MWS (n=36). Both modalities were conducted on a 40m elliptical circuit for 3 minutes. RF was categorized as: "no risk," "dynamic risk" based on a positive timed up and go test, "static risk" based on a positive one-legged stance test, and "mixed risk" with both tests positive. To visualize the graphical variation in the morphospace of individuals according to RF, a principal component analysis (PCA) was conducted using RStudio, utilizing 6 kinematic variables: i) walking speed (WS), ii) cadence, iii) maximum foot clearance (MFC), iv) coefficient of variation (%CV) of MFC, v) stride length (SL), and vi) %CV of SL. In addition to 2 physiological variables: i) % of reserve heart rate used (%RHRu) and ii) the physiological cost index based on the relationship between heart rate and WS (heartbeats/meters). Results. For SSWS, the PCA dimensions explained 56% of the data variability, with gait safety indicators such as WS, cadence, SL, and MFC explaining RF. Gait variability explains mixed RF, while the physiological cost index and %RHRu are associated with dynamic RF. In MWS conditions, PCA explains 60% of the data variability, where the elderly persons without RF are associated with WS, SL, and MFC. On the other hand, MFC variability is related to dynamic RF, and physiological variables are associated with mixed RF. Conclusions. The gait parameters that best explain safe and efficient walking are kinematic parameters of the swing phase, while variability and physiological cost are indicators of dynamic and mixed RF.

RESUMEN

Background: The global population continues to rise at different rates in different parts of the world. While some countries are seeing a fast population increase, others are experiencing population loss. Significant ramifications of such changes in the global population distribution would be felt, as they are critical for meeting the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), or we might say that rapid population expansion poses obstacles to sustainable development. Estimating the population size and composition by age, sex, and other demographic parameters is crucial for analyzing the country’s future influence on poverty, sustainability, and development. This study tries to look at these parameters covered by the National Family Health Survey- 5 (NFHS 5) to see how accurate and trustworthy the predictors of district population size are. Methodology: The study assessed the predictors of the population size of any district. It was conducted using the secondary data of phase 1 of NFHS-5. The outcome variable is the population of each district. Household profiles, literacy among women, their marriage and fertility, contraceptive usage, and unmet need for family planning were considered to assess their potential as a predictor of the district’s population size. Principal component analysis (PCA) was conducted to identify the predictors. Result: PCA was conducted on 18 variables, resulting in 7 principal components. Cumulatively, these components explained 77.6% of the total variation in data. On multiple linear regression, four principal components were found significant and these were related to women’s literacy, contraceptive usage, early pregnancy, the marriage of fewer than 18 years, and those using health insurance. Conclusion: Thus, women’s literacy plays a pivotal role in determining a region’s population size.

RESUMEN

Hemodialysis is the most commonly used treatment modality for end stage renal disease. A 6 months observational study was conducted in the Dialysis unit of Kasturba Hospital, Manipal to study the clinical profile, quality of life with the help of KDQoL SF 36 questionnaire and factors affecting quality of life of hemodialysis patients. A total of 45 participants were included who initiated dialysis in the year 2018 and 2019 and were receiving dialysis in our hospital. Out of 45 participant 77.8% were males and 22.2% were females, the mean age was 55.29 (11.29) years. 23 patient-initiated dialysis in the year 2018 22 patients-initiated dialysis in the year 2019. The prevalence of hypertension, diabetes mellitus and cardiovascular diseases in this population were found to be 95.2%, 35.6% and 8.9% respectively. The mean scores of the sub scales were analyzed with the help of scoring manual and descriptive statistics. In the result it was found the hemoglobin, intradialytic weight gain were found to be positively correlated with the Physical component summary (PCS) and Mental component summary (MCS). Effects of kidney disease was found to be very strongly and positively correlated with dialysis vintage. In the result of the study due to its smaller population we cannot determine more factors which were affecting the Quality of life scores.

RESUMEN

Background: Sufficient and quality healthcare services are basic requirement for overall development of a nation. Public healthcare infrastructure is one of the major determinants of health outcomes in a country, and public healthcare services have a considerable impact on people's health status. The rural population primarily relies on public healthcare services. Assam is not an exception in this regard, where the insufficiency of public healthcare services is still an issue. 86 % of the population of Assam lives in rural areas. Objectives: The present work attempts to study the inter-district variation regarding public health infrastructure in 33 districts of Assam. Methods: The Inter district variation is estimated with a composite index of public health infrastructure. Principal Component Analysis (PCA) is adopted to construct a composite index using nine health infrastructure indicators. Results: The study has observed variations in health infrastructure among the various districts of Assam, reflecting the shortage of health infrastructure-physical and human in rural and remote areas of the state. The study finds inter-district variations in the state.

RESUMEN

Introducción: El análisis factorial exploratorio se usa comúnmente para evaluar la validez de la estructura interna en escalas de calidad de vida de la salud bucal. Empero, existen discusiones sobre usar indiscriminadamente el análisis de componentes principales para extraer los factores. Objetivo: Comparar los resultados de la validez basada en la estructura interna del Parental-Caregiver Perception Questionnaire - 8 ítems mediante análisis factorial exploratorio utilizando el análisis de componentes principales y otros métodos de extracción de factores. Métodos: Se realizó una revisión preliminar de la literatura para examinar el uso del análisis factorial exploratorio y sus métodos en la validación de escalas de calidad de vida relacionada con la salud bucal y se ejecutó un análisis factorial con datos de la validación del instrumento Parental-Caregiver Perception Questionnaire - versión 8, para comparar los valores de las comunalidades y las cargas factoriales de las soluciones extraídas. Resultados: La mayoría de los artículos que exploran la estructura factorial reportan el análisis de componentes principales como método de extracción y Varimax en la rotación. La información sobre los criterios para utilizar estos métodos fue insuficiente. En el análisis factorial se obtuvo que, las cargas factoriales, las comunidades y el número de factores extraídos fueron superiores con el método componentes principales. Conclusión: Usar el análisis de componentes principales como método de extracción de factores acarrea el riesgo de obtener una dimensionalidad sobreestimada en la evaluación de la validez basada en la estructura interna de las escalas de calidad de vida relacionada con la salud bucal.


Introduction: Exploratory factor analysis is commonly used to assess the validity of the internal structure in oral health quality of life scales. However, there are discussions about using principal component analysis indiscriminately to extract the factors. Objective: To compare the results of the internal structure-based validity of the Parental-Caregiver Perception Questionnaire - 8 items by exploratory factor analysis using principal component analysis and other factor estimation extraction methods. Methods: A literature review was conducted to examine the use of exploratory factor analysis and its methods in validating oral health-related quality of life scales, and a factor analysis was performed with validation data from the Parental-Caregiver Perception instrument. Questionnaire - version 8 to compare the values ​​of the communalities and the factor loads of the solutions extracted. Results: Most of the articles that explored the factorial structure reported the analysis of principal components as extraction method and Varimax in rotation. Information on the criteria for using these methods was insufficient. In the factorial analysis, it was obtained that the factorial loads, the communities and the number of extracted factors were higher with the principals component method. Conclusion: Using principal components analysis as a factor extraction method carries the risk of obtaining an overestimated dimensionality in the validity assessment based on the internal structure of oral health-related quality of life scales.

RESUMEN

El sarcoma de Ewing es una neoplasia de hueso y tejidos blandos, cuyo manejo se relaciona con toxicidad hematológica. Este aspecto representa un desafío médico y ético en los pacientes testigos de Jehová quienes, por sus creencias religiosas, rechazan la aplicación de hemoderivados, con riesgo de que se descontinúe la quimioterapia o de que se utilicen dosis subóptimas. Se presenta el caso de una mujer colombiana de 34 años, testigo de Jehová, con diagnóstico de sarcoma de Ewing con estadificación clínica IIB (T1N0M0) en las regiones maxilar y mandibular izquierdas, tratada con quimioterapia, quien presentó un valor mínimo de hemoglobina de hasta 4,5 g/dl y tuvo indicación quirúrgica como parte del tratamiento. En estos pacientes, la decisión de practicar una transfusión comprende implicaciones éticas que requieren alternativas terapéuticas y un abordaje multidisciplinario.


Ewing's sarcoma is a bone and soft tissue neoplasm, whose management is related to hematological toxicity. This aspect represents a medical and ethical challenge in Jehovah's Witnesses patients, who, due to their religious beliefs, reject the blood component transfusion, with the risk of discontinuing chemotherapy or using suboptimal doses. We present the case of a 34-year-old Colombian woman, Jehovah's Witness, diagnosed with Ewing's sarcoma with clinical stage IIB (T1N0M0) in the left maxillary and mandibular regions, treated with chemotherapy, who presented a hemoglobin nadir of up to 4.5 g/dL, and surgical indication as part of the treatment. In these patients, the transfusion decision has ethical implications that require therapeutic alternatives and a multidisciplinary approach.
