RESUMO

Introducción: La discromía dental es una afectación estética, de causa multifactorial, caracterizada por el cambio de coloración de uno o varios dientes. Objetivo: Evaluar la efectividad de la terapia láser como fuente de luz y calor en pacientes con discromías dentales. Método: Se realizó un estudio cuasi experimental, de intervención terapéutica, en 24 pacientes con discromías dentales atendidos en la Clínica Estomatológica Provincial DocenteMártires del Moncada de Santiago de Cuba, desde julio de 2017 hasta julio de 2018. Los integrantes del estudio se asignaron de forma aleatoria a 2 grupos de tratamiento:a los pares (grupo de estudio) se les aplicó láser combinado con la técnica convencional de peróxido de hidrógeno;a los impares (grupo control), tratamiento convencional solamente.Se utilizaron las frecuencias absoluta y relativa como medidas de resumen, así como la prueba de X 2 de homogeneidad para la validación estadística, con un nivel de significación de 0,05. Resultados: Para los pacientes del grupo de estudio, la segunda y tercera sesiones fueron más efectivas. Al culminar el tratamiento, ambos resultaron efectivos, pero los que recibieron láser evolucionaron más rápidamente que los tratados solo con peróxido de hidrógeno. Conclusiones: El uso de la terapia láser y peróxido de hidrógeno fue efectivo en pacientes con discromías dentales y demostró que no provoca efectos adversos en los dientes tratados.


Introduction: The dental dischromya is an esthetic disorder, of multifactorial cause, characterized by the change of coloration of one or several teeth. Objective: To evaluate the effectiveness of laser therapy as a source of light and heat in patients with dental dischromya. Method: A quasi-experiment, of therapeutic intervention study, was carried out in 24 patients with dental dischromya assisted in Mártires del Moncada Teaching Provincial Stomatological Clinic in Santiago de Cuba, from July, 2017 to March, 2018. The members of the study were assigned at random with 2 treatment groups: a study group (pairs) to whom laser combined with the conventional technique of peroxide of hydrogen was applied; to odd number patients (control group), conventional treatment only. The absolute and relative frequencies were used as summary measures, as well as the chi-square test of homogeneity for the statistical validation, with a level of significance of 0.05. Results: For the patients of the study group, the second and third sessions were more effective. When culminating the treatment, both were effective, but those that received laser evolved more quickly than those treated with peroxide of hydrogen. Conclusions: The use of the laser therapy and peroxide of hydrogen was effective in patients with dental dischromya and it was demonstrated that doesn't cause adverse effects in the treated teeth.

RESUMO

Background: A spectrum of cardiovascular pathologies occurs in patients with COVID-19 and increases the risk of mortality. Risk of mortality is also heightened in cardiovascular disease patients who contact COVID-19. Methodology: Online search for the keywords in PubMed, Medline, Embase, Google scholar was done. Relevant research articles yielded from the searches were reviewed. Results: the searches yielded a total of 172 results, out of which 111 were reviewed. Cardiac involvement was found in 70.6% COVID-19 patients: tachycardia (19%), electrocardiography abnormalities (22%), echocardiography abnormalities (57%), elevated myocardial enzymes (53%), and acute cardiac injury (9%). Eight percent of patients with acute cardiac injury were aged >60 years; 87.5% of them had ≥2 underlying comorbidities (hypertension, diabetes mellitus, cardiovascular diseases, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and chronic kidney disease). Novel coronavirus pneumonia was much more severe in the patients with acute cardiac injury than in patients with non-definite acute cardiac injury (P<0.001). Multivariate analyses showed that C-reactive protein (CRP) levels, old age, novel coronavirus pneumonia severity, and underlying comorbidities were the risk factors for cardiac abnormalities in patients with COVID-19. Conclusion: Besides its prominent expression at the level of the respiratory apparatus, COVID-19 is also characterized by a substantial degree of cardiovascular involvement, both in terms of deterioration of pre-existing conditions, and as the effect of inflammation-facilitated acute events. They include ischemic and inflammatory heart disease, ventricular arrhythmias, conduction disturbances, thrombotic events at the level of the lungs, systemic activation of the coagulation cascade and disseminated intravascular coagulation.

RESUMO

Introducción: Las enfermedades oftalmológicas originadas por virus ocupan un lugar importante en el quehacer diario de la especialidad. Objetivo: Caracterizar pacientes con infecciones oculares por herpesvirus según variables clínicas y epidemiológicas de interés. Métodos: Se realizó un estudio descriptivo y transversal de 29 pacientes adultos con infecciones por herpesvirus, atendidos en la consulta oftalmológica del Hospital General Docente Dr. Juan Bruno Zayas Alfonso de Santiago de Cuba, desde septiembre de 2012 hasta igual mes de 2013. Resultados: En la casuística predominaron los pacientes de piel blanca (55,1 %), el sexo femenino (69,0 %) y el grupo etario de 57 años y más (48,3 %). El ojo rojo y la inyección cilioconjuntival constituyeron los síntomas y signos más comunes (75,9 %). Las lesiones más frecuentes estuvieron localizadas en los párpados, la piel y la córnea (31,0 %). La afectación de la agudeza visual por debajo de 0,3 estuvo relacionada con la ocurrencia de afectación estromal y la localización de las lesiones en el área pupilar. Ningún paciente presentó inflamación del segmento posterior. Conclusiones: No se encontraron argumentos referidos a la relación existente entre la localización de las lesiones y la afectación de la agudeza visual, lo cual impidió realizar comparaciones.


Introduction: Eye diseases originated due to virus occupy an important place in daily routine of the specialty. Objective: To characterize patients with eye infections due to herpesvirus according to clinical and epidemiological variables of interest. Methods: A descriptive and cross-sectional study of 29 adult patients with infections due to herpesvirus was carried out, they were assisted in the ophthalmologic service of Dr. Juan Bruno Zayas Alfonso Teaching General Hospital in Santiago de Cuba, from September, 2012 to the same month in 2013. Results: In the case material white skin patients (55.1 %), female sex (69.0 %) and 57 years and over age group (48.3 %) prevailed. Red eye and ciliumconjuntival injection constituted the most common symptoms and signs (75.9 %). The most frequent lesions were located in the eyelids, the skin and cornea (31.0 %). The affectation of the visual acuteness below 0.3 was related to the occurrence of stromal affectation and the localization of lesions in the pupilar area. No patient presented inflammation of the later segment. Conclusions: Arguments about the existent relationship between the localization of lesions and the affectation of the visual acuteness were not found, which prevented to carry out comparisons.

RESUMO

Introducción: La vivencias emocionales de las enfermedades y su cuidado reciben atención insuficiente en las condiciones actuales de una medicina altamente biologicista. Objetivo: Profundizar en el concepto del padecer como componente del diagnóstico con enfoque psicosocial en clínica. Métodos: Se realizó una búsqueda en las bases de datos PubMed, SciELO y Lilacs utilizando las palabras claves: padecer; afectación; enfermedad, illness, sickness, disease. Desarrollo: El diagnóstico médico se centra en la entidad nosológica que representa alteraciones estructurales y funcionales. La afectación se vincula a la vida de relaciones sociales del enfermo en la que supone determinado grado de invalidez y en el padecer, el cual es una expresión de la dimensión psicológica cuya complejidad se centra en la respuesta afectiva identificable por las emociones y sentimientos. El padecer tiene un carácter individual según los rasgos de personalidad, la biografía del paciente, las características de su enfermedad (aguda o crónica), el contexto en el que surge y se desarrolla el problema de salud y las cualidades del proceso de atención. El afrontamiento del padecer del paciente puede verse mejor desde una visión alostática. Conclusiones: El padecer de las enfermedades, también conocido como cuadro interno de la enfermedad, tiene como centro la respuesta emocional pero no se limita a ella. Exige conocer al enfermo como persona y su red de apoyo con vistas a facilitarle una respuesta adaptativa beneficiosa a su nueva condición(AU)


Introduction: The emotional experiences of diseases and their care receive insufficient attention in the current conditions of highly biologic oriented medicine. Objective: To deepen the concept of suffering as a component of diagnosis with a psychosocial approach in the clinic. Methods: A search in PubMed, SciELO and Lilacs databases was performed using suffering; affectation; disease, illness, sickness, disease as keywords. Discussion: The medical diagnosis focuses on the nosological entity that represents structural and functional alterations. Suffering is linked to the social relations of the patient in which certain degree of disability and suffering are supposed, which is an expression of the psychological dimension whose complexity focuses on the emotional response identifiable by emotions and feelings. Suffering has an individual character according to the personality traits, the patient´s history, the characteristics of the illness (acute or chronic), the context in which the health problem arises and advances and the qualities of the care process. Coping with the patient's suffering can be better understood from an allostatic view. Conclusions: Suffering from diseases, also known as internal symptoms of the disease, is centered on the emotional response but it is not just limited to it. Knowing the patient as a whole person and their support network is required to facilitating beneficial adaptive response to the new condition(AU)

RESUMO

La esclerosis sistémica, es una enfermedad generalizada del tejido conjuntivo de etiología desconocida con una incidencia que oscila, según las series publicadas, entre dos y 10 nuevos casos por millón de habitantes al año. Predomina en el sexo femenino. La edad media de debut es alrededor de los 40 años. En Cuba los estudios, a base de series escasas, revelan características clínicas, epidemiológicas de la enfermedad. Referente al compromiso de órganos internos obtienen predominio de sistema digestivo y respiratorio, así como algunas revisiones del tratamiento médico. En la provincia de Holguín no se conoce el comportamiento de los pacientes enfermos. Describir las características de estos enfermos en relación con variables epidemiológicas y clínicas de interés es el objetivo de este estudio de serie de casos con universo de 44 pacientes con diagnóstico de la enfermedad. La piel, el sistema musculoesquelético y el microvascular se afectan precozmente. Se asociaron a mayor índice de actividad y severidad, criterios clínicos como la afectación de órganos internos (TGI y respiratorio), eritrosedimentación acelerada e inmunocomplejos circulantes elevados. Las principales causas de muerte fueron la enfermedad renal y las infecciones graves.


The systemic sclerosis, it is a disease generalized of the conjunctive tissue of ethiology been ignorant of with an incidence that you oscillate, according to the series published, between two and 10 new cases by million inhabitants a year. You predominate in the female sex. The half an age of debut is around the 40 years. The studies, on the basis of scarce series, reveal clinical, epidemiologic characteristics of the disease in Cuba. They get predominance from digestive and respiratory system, as well as some revisions of the medical treatment relating to the commitment of internal organs. The sick patients' behavior is not known at Holguín's province. Describing the characteristics of these sick persons relating to epidemiologic variables and clinics of concern it is the objective of this study of series of cases with universe of 44 patients with diagnosis of the disease. The skin, the system musculoesquelético and the microvascular affect themselves precociously. They joined bigger rate of activity and severity, clinical criteria like the affectation of internal organs (GIT and respiratory), accelerated eritrosedimentation and circulating elevated inmunocomplejos. The principal fatal causes were the renal disease and the grave infections.

RESUMO

La investigación parte de la incidencia cada vez mayor que tiene el cuerpo en la experiencia analítica. Podríamos decir que en los últimos años asistimos al incremento de demandas donde el cuerpo cobra un lugar destacado. Es cierto que la clínica psicoanalítica nunca fue ajena al cuerpo. El padecimiento subjetivo que Freud recortaba en las histéricas, ponía sobre el tapete la necesariedad de distinguir el organismo, del cuerpo afectado por las representaciones. Lacan en 1971, propone un giro significativo al introducir la noción lalengua como aquello que hace trauma, e incorpora los afectos al cuerpo. El encuentro del viviente con lalengua introduce el goce en el organismo, haciendo que este se pierda al tiempo que funda un incurable: el serhablante ya no podrá ser un cuerpo, y abre la cuestión en torno a cómo es posible hacerse un cuerpo. En esta línea podemos afirmar que la relación al cuerpo, es el modo en que cada ser hablante se las arregla con lo traumático de lalengua. En este sentido es preciso localizar los modos de afectación del mismo, considerando que no hay un único modo. Distinguiremos entonces la afectación del viviente por el trauma de lalengua, de las variaciones en los modos de afectación del cuerpo que se inscriben ya como respuestas al trauma, más o menos sintomáticas. Por otro lado, podríamos decir que hay algunos modos más típicos y otros más singulares, pero que es posible situar algunas especificidades que nos acerquen a una primera elaboración del tema que nos ocupa.


This research was born due to the growing incidence that the body has taken in the psychoanalytical practice. During the last years, we notice an increasing amount of demands where the body takes an outstanding place. Since Freud's earliest work with hysterics requires a clear distinction between the organism and the body affected by representations, we know that the psychoanalytical practice always involves the body. We start from Lacan's concept of lalangue as that which causes trauma and introduces the affections. Lalangue injects joy ( jouissance) into the living organism making it disappear at the same time that it founds an incurable rest: the parlêtre will never be able to be a body. The relationship with the body is the way each one finds to deal with the traumatism of lalangue and there isn't a unique form, but different ways that must be identified. We'll distinguish the traumatism of lalangue from the variations in the way it affects the body which are considered as a response to trauma that can be more or less symptomatic. We also think that although there are more typical or more singular forms, it is possible to define some specifications to approach this topic.

RESUMO

El síndrome antifosfolípido se define como la presencia de trombosis arteriales o venosas recurrentes, pérdidas repetidas de embarazo y trombocitopenia en presencia de anticuerpos a cardiolipina o anticoagulante lúpico. Se realizo esta revisión con el fin de determinar si este síndrome debe ser considerado actualmente un factor de riesgo cardiovascular. Se presenta en mujeres jóvenes por lo cual al ser diagnosticado nos obliga a realizar un control exhaustivo y debe tener un abordaje multidisciplinario. Dentro de las manifestaciones cardiovasculares el paciente puede presentar infarto agudo de miocardio, endocarditis pseudo-infecciosa, afectación valvular e hipertensión pulmonar.


Antiphospholipid syndrome is defined as the presence of recurrent arterial or venous thrombosis, repeated pregnancy loss and thrombocytopenia in the presence of antibodies to cardiolipin or lupus anticoagulant. This review was performed in order to determine whether this syndrome should now be considered a cardiovascular risk factor. It occurs in young women, therefore, to be diagnosed forces us to make a thorough control and should have a multidisciplinary approach. Among the cardiovascular manifestations the patient may develop acute myocardial infarction, pseudo-infectious endocarditis, valve disease and pulmonary hypertension.
