Résumé

Polygala paniculata L. (Polygalaceae) é uma erva que ocorre em todas as regiões do Brasil. No presente trabalho, foram avaliadas as atividades analgésica, através do teste da placa quente, da retirada de cauda e da formalina, e antiedematogênica, através do teste do edema de orelha induzido por óleo de cróton, dos extratos etanólicos obtidos das partes aéreas de Polygala paniculata selvagem e cultivadas por micropropagação. A aplicação oral do extrato etanólico de Polygala paniculata apresentou atividade analgésica, em ratos, tanto em testes de dor induzida por agentes térmicos (testes da placa quente e de retirada da cauda) quanto por agentes químicos (teste da formalina), de modo que os melhores resultados foram obtidos na dose de 400 mg/kg. Também foi observada redução na formação de edema de orelha induzida pela aplicação de óleo de cróton. Os efeitos provocados pelos extratos obtidos a partir das plantas cultivadas in vitro foram menos pronunciados que aqueles produzidos pelos extratos das plantas selvagens, embora ambos tenham sido significativos. Estes resultados sugerem que o extrato etanólico de Polygala paniculata possui atividades analgésica e antiedematogênica.


The ethanolic extracts of Polygala paniculata L. (Polygalaceae), wich is a herbaceous plant widely distributed all over Brazil, were tested for their analgesic effects using hot plate, tail flick and formalin test models, and for their antiedematogenic effects using croton oil induced ear oedema. The ethanolic extracts obtained from wild and micropropagated plants produced analgesic effects against thermal and chemical induced pain. The highest results were observed at the dose of 400 mg/kg. The inhibition of ear oedema in mice was also observed after treatment with ethanolic extract of Polygala paniculata. The effects produced by micropropagated plants were lower than wild plants, whereas both had produced significant effects. These results suggest that the ethanolic extracts from wild and micropropagated Polygala paniculata possess analgesic and antiedematogenic effects.

Résumé

Early identification of patients who need hospitalization or patients who should be discharged would be helpful for the management of acute asthma in the emergency room. The objective of the present study was to examine the clinical and pulmonary functional measures used during the first hour of assessment of acute asthma in the emergency room in order to predict the outcome. We evaluated 88 patients. The inclusion criteria were age between 12 and 55 years, forced expiratory volume in the first second below 50 percent of predicted value, and no history of chronic disease or pregnancy. After baseline evaluation, all patients were treated with 2.5 mg albuterol delivered by nebulization every 20 min in the first hour and 60 mg of intravenous methylprednisolone. Patients were reevaluated after 60 min of treatment. Sixty-five patients (73.9 percent) were successfully treated and discharged from the emergency room (good responders), and 23 (26.1 percent) were hospitalized or were treated and discharged with relapse within 10 days (poor responders). A predictive index was developed: peak expiratory flow rates after 1 h <=0 percent of predicted values and accessory muscle use after 1 h. The index ranged from 0 to 2. An index of 1 or higher presented a sensitivity of 74.0, a specificity of 69.0, a positive predictive value of 46.0, and a negative predictive value of 88.0. It was possible to predict outcome in the first hour of management of acute asthma in the emergency room when the index score was 0 or 2
