ABSTRACT

O objetivo deste estudo foi verificar quais os possíveis fatores que interferiram na recuperaçäo funcional de idosos após reparo cirúrgico de fratura de quadril. Participaram do estudo 23 indivíduos idosos que foram submetidos a um reparo cirúrgico de fratura de quadril no período compreendido entre seis meses a um ano e meio anterior à avaliaçäo. A localizaçäo da fratura na regiäo subtrocantérica, o maior número de complicaçöes pós-cirúrgicas e o menor número de sessöes de fisioterapia ao qual o idoso foi submetido foram os principais fatores que interferiram negativamente na recuperaçäo funcional dos idosos.Ressaltamos que a importância de uma abordagem precoce e um número suficiente das sessöes de tratamento fisioterápico para melhora da qualidade de vida desses pacientes

ABSTRACT

Com o envelhecimento populacional a prevalencia de doencas osteomusculares cronicas, que restringem a capacidade funcional dos idosos tem aumentado. A artrite reumatoide, integrante desse grupo de patologias, tem atualmente a sua abordagem terapeutica realizada atraves de medicamentos e de fisioterapia. Os tratamentos propostos consistem basicamente em reduzir os sintomas apresentados pela doenca tais como: a dor, o edema, a rigidez e a atrofia muscular, atraves da inibicao do processo inflamatorio. Foi observado o efeito do ultra- som no edema e na hiperalgesia das patas posteriores de ratos artriticos. A artrite reumatoide foi induzida experimentalmente atraves de uma injecao de uma emulsao oleo-agua contendo 400 mcg de Micobacterium butiricum. A hiperalgesia foi detectada no 11 dia e o edema no 12 dia apos a inducao da artrite. O ultra-som com uma frequencia de 1MHz, intensidade de 0,2 watts/cm2, aplicado por 5 minutos diariamente durante 15 dias, nao reduziu a hiperalgesia ou o edema das patas posteriores dos ratos artriticos. Para estudo comparativo, foi administrado um antiinflamatorio nao-esteroide, a indometacina, por via oral na dose de 0,5 mg/kg/dia durante 15 dias consecutivos onde nao foi observado a reducao da hiperalgesia, mas ocorreu a reducao do edema. A associacao do ultra-som com a indometacina, nas doses ja citadas anteriormente, conseguiu inibir significativamente hiperalgesia e o edema das patas dos ratos artriticos. Em nossos estudos, concluimos que o ultra-som associado a indometacina foi mais efetivo do que quando a indometacina ou ultra-som foram utilizados isoladamente na inibicao da hiperalgesia e no edema de ratos artriticos

ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT The blackleg disease of oilseed rape is caused by an ascomycete species complex termed Leptosphaeria maculans (anamorph Phoma lingam). L. maculans isolates collected worldwide were gathered in the International Blackleg of Crucifers Network (IBCN) collection. Representative IBCN isolates, along with one P. nigrificans isolate, were further analyzed using polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplification of the internal transcribed spacer (ITS) region. ITS size polymorphism discriminated three groups: (i) P. nigrificans, (ii) Tox(+) and 'Lepidium' isolates, and (iii) NA1, NA2, NA3, 'Thlaspi', and 'Erysimum' isolates. Digestion of the ITS region with 19 selected endonucleases showed restriction site polymorphism between the different subgroups: digestion with RsaI could discriminate Tox(+) from 'Lepidium' isolates, whereas digestion with four enzymes, i.e., HaeIII, EcoRII, RsaI, and AluI, was needed to discriminate between NA1, NA2, NA3, 'Thlaspi', and 'Erysimum' isolates. No restriction site polymorphism was observed between isolates within the 'Thlaspi', Tox(+), NA1, and NA2 subgroups. Direct amplification of the ITS region could be achieved using intact conidia, collected either in axenic cultures or on leaf lesions, with only a 4-min 95 degrees C denaturation step prior to PCR reaction. A routine identification protocol requiring no DNA extraction and a sequential use of a few restriction enzymes following PCR has been used successfully for large-scale identification of French field isolates.

ABSTRACT

The use of vegetable proteins such as legumes or oilseeds proteins is often restricted by antinutritional or toxic factors. Therefore, it is usefull, in order to extend their consumption, to isolate proteins from most of the other components of the seeds. Unfortunately, the technological processes may have some deleterious effects on the nutritive value of the proteins. Moreover, the proteins isolates and concentrates need further processing to be texturated in order to look like conventional foods for humans. We used growing rats to study the effect of some of these technological processes on the nutritive value of some field bean and sunflower protein feedstuffs. We estimated the digestive utilization of dry matter, nitrogen and amino acids, and the amino acid composition of feces was used in trying to explain some decreases in nitrogen digestibility. We also studied the ability of their amino acids to be used for growth, and tried to estimate their availability from blood and muscle free amino acids determinations. It may be inferred from the results that the technologists were successfull in improving their processes, and that textured field beans and sunflower proteins of good nutritional quality may be processed now.
