RESUMO

Resumen El sarcoma fibromixoide de bajo grado (LGFMS) es un tumor de tejidos blandos de origen mesenquimal. Los sarcomas son un grupo heterogéneo, que representa el 1% de todas las neoplasias. Los sarcomas primarios del sistema nervioso central (SNC) son raros y representan solo el 0,7% del total de sarcomas, con una incidencia estimada de 3 por cada 10 millones de personas por año. En este artículo, se describe el caso de una mujer de 59 años que presentó un sarcoma fibromixoide intracraneal de bajo grado, localizado en la región parietal derecha. Se discute el curso clínico, estudios de imágenes, características histopatológicas y tratamiento de este diagnóstico infrecuente y, por lo mismo, muy poco reportado. El diagnóstico definitivo se obtiene, ciertamente, mediante estudios histo-patológicos.


Summary Low-grade fibromyxoid sarcoma (LGFMS) is a soft tissue tumor of mesenchymal origin. Sarcomas are a heterogeneous group, representing 1% of all neoplasm diagnoses. Primary sarcomas of the central nervous system (CNS) are rare, and represent only 0.7% of all sarcomas, with an estimated incidence of 3 per 10 million people per year. The case of a 59-year-old woman who developed a low-grade intracranial fibromyxoid sarcoma in the right parietal region, is described. The clinical course, imaging studies, histopathological features, and treatment approach of this unusual diagnosis, are discussed. Low-grade intracranial fibromyxoid sarcoma is a rare and probably under- reported condition. The definitive diagnosis is usually made through histo-pathological studies.

RESUMO

Considerando la tendencia mundial sobre la seguridad del paciente y la calidad del cuidado se hace indispensable diseñar, proponer e implementar procedimientos que lleven a satisfacer tales objetivos. El paciente en estado crítico requiere de cuidados especializados que garanticen la integridad física durante su estancia hospitalaria, a fin de prevenir y/o limitar las complicaciones que en la convalecencia resulten trascendentales para su rehabilitación y reintegración a su rol social. Por lo tanto se propone el procedimiento de protección ocular al paciente en estado crítico bajo efectos de sedación en cuatro etapas que pueden aplicarse de manera universal en toda instancia hospitalaria en la que se proporcione cuidado enfermero a pacientes con deficiencia en la oclusión natural de los ojos.


Considering the world-wide tendency on the security of the patient and the quality of the care it is made indispensable design, propose and implement procedures that take to satisfy such objectives. The patient in critical state requires of specialized cares that guarantee physical integrity during their hospital stay, in order to prevent and/or to limit the complications that in the rehabilitation are transcendental for their rehabilitation and reintegration to their social roll. Therefore the procedure of ocular protection to the patient in critical state under effects of sedation in four stages sets out that can be applied of universal way in all hospitable instance in which well-taken care of nurse to patients with deficiency in the natural occlusion of the eyes provides itself.

RESUMO

Con el objeto de estimar la frecuencia de aislamientos de Candida dubliniensis en materiales clínicos en el Hospital de Infecciosas F. J. Muñiz, se identificaron 388 levaduras entre setiembre de 2005 y agosto de 2007. Doscientos doce aislamientos presentaban color verde en CHROMagar® y producían tubos germinativos y clamidoconidias en agarleche. Para diferenciar cuales de ellos correspondían a Candida albicans o a C. dubliniensis, se utilizaron distintos métodos fenotípicos y se evaluó la utilidad de cada técnica a fin de proponer un algoritmo de identificación simple, económico y confiable. Se estudió el color en 2 medios con sustratos cromogénicos, la producción de clamidoconidias en medios de Staib, agar tomate-zanahoria y agar-tabaco; en este último medio también se evaluaron las características macromorfológicas de las colonias; se evaluó la presencia de actividad lipolítica (medio-opacidad), capacidad de desarrollo a 45 °C y asimilación de D-xilosa. El 6,1% (13/212 aislamientos) correspondió a C. dubliniensis (3,3% del total de levaduras). No se pudo diferenciar entre ambas especies por el color en los medios cromogénicos usados. Las pruebas que resultaron más sensibles y específicas fueron crecimiento a 45 °C, asimilación de D-xilosa, color y desarrollo en agar-tabaco. C. albicans produjo clamidoconidias en los 3 medios diferenciales, entre 11,6% y 15,1% de los casos. La presencia de lipasas se evidenció en el 95,6% de C. albicans pero 2 de las 13 cepas de C. dubliniensis también presentaron halo de opacidad. Consideramos que se deben usar, al menos, 3 métodos diferentes para discriminar entre estas levaduras ya que ninguna prueba es absolutamente sensible o específica.


In order to estimate the frequence of Candida dubliniensis in clinical samples in F. J. Muñiz Infectious Diseases Hospital, a total of 388 yeasts from September 2005 to August 2007. There were 212 isolates which presented a green color on CHROMagar® Candida medium and produced germ tubes and chlamidoconidiae in milk-agar; so as to distinguish whether they corresponded to Candida albicans or C. dubliniensis, different phenotypical methods were utilized. It was also evaluated the usefulness of each one in order to suggest a simple, economic and reliable identification algorithm. Each isolate was subcultured in two chromogenic media and then, the following determinations were done: chlamidospores production in Staib-agar, tomato-carrot-agar and tobacco-agar, colonies macromorphology was also studied in the last medium; opacity-test in Tween 80-CaCl2 agar (lipase activity), growing capacity at 45 °C, and D-xylose assimilation. Thirteen strains (6.1%) corresponded to C. dubliniensis. The difference in color between both species on chromogenic media was not so stressed as it is pointed out in some works. The more specific and sensitive tests were the ability to grow at 45 °C, D-xylose assimilation, color and macroscopic appearance in tobacco-agar. Between 11.6% and 15.1% of C. albicans strains produced chlamidoconidiae in the 3 differential media tested. The opacity halo (lipase) was evident in 95.6% of C. albicans isolates but 2 out of 13 C. dubliniensis also presented precipitation halo. We consider that at least 3 different phenotypical methods should be used to distinguish properly these two species since none of the tests is absolutely sensitive or specific.

RESUMO

OBJETIVO: El objetivo del estudio fue obtener información sobre las percepciones, actitudes y las prácticas que las personas del Amazonas Colombiano tienen sobre la etiología de la malaria, el diagnóstico, la profilaxis, la terapéutica, la prevención, y la percepción del riesgo para contraer la malaria. MÉTODOS: Se realizó un estudio cualitativo y se utilizó como técnica de investigación grupos focales, en total se realizaron 23, cada uno contó con la participación de 6 a 10 personas clasificadas de acuerdo a unas variables de inclusión pertinentes para el estudio. RESULTADOS: El estudio encontró que las personas que mejor conocen las medidas preventivas y de control son quienes tienen un riesgo alto para adquirir malaria, pero sin embargo no las ponen en práctica. Existen dificultades de acceso al diagnóstico y tratamiento de la malaria y problemas de automedicación en poblaciones de alto riesgo. CONCLUSIONES: Los factores comportamentales de las poblaciones expuesta a la malaria, pueden facilitar u obstaculizar las intervenciones de control en el Departamento del Amazonas Colombiano.

RESUMO

Background: It has been hypothesized that the yearly menarche rhythm could be caused by the seasonal variation of photoperiod and temperature or by the annual distribution of the scholar vacation and study periods. Aim: To test the hypothesis that the distribution of study vacation periods is a condition that modifies the annual menarche rhythm. Subjects and methods: Two thousand ninety four school girls from Chile, 2.356 girls from Madras, India, 3.454 girls from Medellin, Colombia and 2.627 girls from Debrecen, Hungary, were studied. They were asked about the month of their menarche. Vacation months were considered those with more than 6 days of leave from school. Results: The seasonal hypothesis was refuted because there were contradictions with the expected antithetical behavior in both hemispheres, there was a significant heterogeneity of the yearly menarche among girls from the same region, the expected cline of the menarche frequency variance from equator to poles was not observed, finding an antithetical cline instead and there was a significant heterogeneity among months of the same season. On the other hand, months with vacation periods coincided significantly with peaks of menarche, while study months had lower proportion of menarche (total binomial probability <10-6). Girls whose month of menarche was the same as their month of birth, did not agree completely with the vacation-study hypothesis as the rest of the sample. Conclusions: Vacation periods influenced menarche rhythm. However, these periods coincide with most cultural events and this strong association needs further study to be considered causal. It is not possible to assume school stress as the main explanatory variable. Ontogenetic factors such as birth imprinting also can influence the menarche rhythm, as shown in girls whose month of menarche coincided with their month of birth

RESUMO

Hypotheses on seasonal, phylogenetic and ontogenic factors or imprinting that may produce menarcheal rhythm were tested in a sample of school girls from Medellín, Colombia. The questionnaire included a net of important religious or national feasts and periods of vacation or study to prevent memory biases. Europeanb, Asian and Chilean samples showed peaks of menarche in december and january, but a few samples showed a second in june, july and august. The winter short photoperiod and low temperature were assumed to be the cause of the winter peak in most european samples. However, this seasonal hypothesis was refuted when a chilean sample also showed a peak in december, january and february (summer). In the present study performed in a sample from a tropical country we found 2 peaks of menarche, one in july and the other in november, december and january; thus, the seasonal hypothesis can be hardly supported. Moreover, this sample showed a high coincidence between the month of menarche and the month of birth, and a different pattern of menarche when menarches are distributed according to their coincidence with the gestational development. Both facts affirm the ontogenetic hypothesis, because they were also found in several samples. Since this population is different from those already studied and its monthly distribution of menarches and births is also different from those ones, the hypothetical phylogenetic factors find additional support. The possible influence of school stress and other environmental factors in the menarcheal rhythm are discussed
