RESUMEN
Female pelvic organ prolapse (POP) is caused by damage or loss of pelvic floor support, resulting in displacement of the pelvic organs, which leads to abnormalities in the position and function of the organs, mainly due to damage to the pelvic floor mechanical support structures caused by transvaginal birth, loss of elasticity of the pelvic floor mechanical support structures in old women, and loss of the ability to maintain the pelvic floor. The key to POP surgery is the repair of the apical vagina, but treatment based on this theory has failed to achieve satisfactory clinical outcomes. This article will analyze the common procedures of apical suspension in the treatment of mid-pelvic prolapse from the perspective of pelvic floor morphological features and pelvic floor biomechanics axially.
RESUMEN
Introducción: En la región Caribe de Colombia hay presencia de especies nativas de gramíneas que aún no han sido evaluadas. Objetivo: Identificar taxonómicamente una gramínea de la región Sabanas de Sucre y estudiar la influencia de la edad sobre sus atributos morfológicos y de producción. Materiales y métodos: El estudio se ubicó en 9º12'38.59" N y 75º24'06.63", a 165 msnm. En 18 parcelas se evaluaron tres intervalos de corte (21, 28 y 35 días). Inicialmente, se identificó la gramínea. Fue evaluada la composición química, el número y longitud de las hojas, las relaciones entre material verde y seco y entre hojas y tallos, y su evolución, y la producción y tasa de acúmulo de MS. Resultados: La gramínea se identificó como Panicum cf. hispidifolium Swallen. El contenido de PB, NDT y cenizas disminuyeron (P<0,05) con el incremento en la edad, presentando valores medios de 12,3; 58,5 y 9,7%, respectivamente. Las fracciones MS, FDA y CNE aumentaron (P<0,05) con la edad, presentando valores medios de 21,6; 37,17 y 6,24%, respectivamente. La disponibilidad de MS y la tasa de acúmulo evolucionaron cuadráticamente (P<0,05), con mayor intensidad entre los días 21 y 28. El promedio de MS disponible fue de 8049,1 kg/ha y la tasa diaria de acúmulo fue de 281,2 kg/ha. Conclusión: Se concluye que P. hispidifolium es una gramínea con potencial forrajero para la región Sabanas de Sucre, y que se debe manejar con periodos de descanso de alrededor de 28 días, considerando la disponibilidad y calidad de la MS.
Introduction: In the Caribbean region of Colombia there are native species of grasses that have not yet been evaluated. Objective: To identify taxonomically a grass observed in the Savannas de Sucre region and study the influence of age on its morphological and production attributes. Materials and Methods: The study was located at 9º12'38.59"N and 75º24'06.63", at 165 meters above sea level. In 18 plots, three cut intervals were evaluated (21, 28 and 35 days). Initially, the grass was identified. The chemical composition, the number and length of the leaves, the relationships between green and dry material and between leaves and stems, and their evolution, and the production and accumulation rate of DM were tested. Results: The grass was identified as Panicum cf. hispidifolium Swallen. The content of PB, NDT and ash decreased (P <0.05) with increasing age, presenting mean values of 12.27; 58.5 and 9.7%, respectively. The MS, FDA and CNE fractions increased (P <0.05) with age, presenting mean values of 21.6; 37.17 and 6.24%, respectively. DM availability and accumulation rate evolved quadratically (P <0.05), with greater intensity between days 21 and 28. The average DM available was 8049.1 kg / ha and the daily accumulation rate was 281.2 kg / ha. Conclusion: It is concluded that P. hispidifolium is a grass with forage potential for the Savannas of Sucre region, and that it should be managed with rest periods of around 28 days, considering the availability and quality of the DM.

Objective: This study was aim to describe the morphological features of the cord vessels at the birth.Materials and methods: 980 umbilical cords of single birth Sudanese neonates, of normal vaginal deliverieswere studied, with mother age ranged between 18 to 45 years and parity from 1 to 8 children. The study wascarried out in the department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Omdurman Maternity Hospital, Sudan, 2017. Thecords were cut about 5 centimeters from the baby abdominal wall using scissor; the parts of the cords from thecut end to the placental insertion were dissected using the anatomical dissection tools and method, their bloodwere delivered from surrounding tissues and studied; the study includes; gross observation of the cord vessels.For general histology, two cm. of cord tissue was studied, using natural historical stains and methods. Specialstains, Masson’s Trichrome, Van Gieson and Verhoff’s were used to clarify the connectives tissues within thecord.Results and conclusion: the single umbilical artery were about 1.2%, more common in male, the ratio of male-tofemale was about 2:1, and it was found associated with spina bifida and hydrocephalus. the relation betweencord vessels after dissection showed that; in same cords arteries and vein were course together in a parallelfashions, vein centrally with arteries peripherally, some showed vein run predominantly straight with arteriescoiled around it, while other showed arteries and vein course together in a helical fashion in a one-to-onerelationship. Moreover the cord vessels don’t run close each other like the rest of the blood vessels in the body,they were found separated by a wide tissues structure of Wharton’s jelly without branches elements, and theafter the umbilical vein was found surrounded by a special sheath. It is concluding that, the highly condensedtissue around the vein, it helps to maintenance the vein and preventing it from occlusion; because the vein isfewer coils and under tensile force of the fetal mobility. Our recommendation that; studding morphologicalfeatures the cord vessels is significantly important, because their relations play an essential role in fetalintrauterine survival.
RESUMEN
O estadiamento axilar nas pacientes portadoras de câncer de mama inicial é fator essencial no planejamento terapêutico. Atualmente este é realizado durante o tratamento cirúrgico, mas há uma tendência em buscar técnicas pré-operatórias e de menor morbidade para avaliação dos linfonodos axilares. A ultrassonografia é um exame amplamente usado para esta finalidade e muitas vezes associado a punção aspirativa por agulha fina ou por agulha grossa. Entretanto, os critérios ultrassonográficos de suspeição para linfonodos axilares não apresentam valores preditivos significativos, gerando resultados discrepantes em estudos sobre sensibilidade e especificidade do método. O objetivo deste trabalho é realizar uma revisão na literatura médica sobre a ultrassonografia no estadiamento axilar e as principais alterações morfológicas do linfonodo metastático.
Axillary staging of patients with early-stage breast cancer is essential in the treatment planning. Currently such staging is intraoperatively performed, but there is a tendency to seek a preoperative and less invasive technique to detect lymph node metastasis. Ultrasonography is widely utilized for this purpose, many times in association with fine-needle aspiration biopsy or core needle biopsy. However, the sonographic criteria for determining malignancy in axillary lymph nodes do not present significant predictive values, producing discrepant results in studies evaluating the sensitivity and specificity of this method. The present study was aimed at reviewing the literature approaching the utilization of ultrasonography in the axillary staging as well as the main morphological features of metastatic lymph nodes.
