ABSTRACT

Introducción: La enfermedad de Pompe (EP) o glucogenosis tipo II es una enfermedad autosómica recesiva causada por mutaciones en el gen GAA que codifica para la proteína alfa-1,4-glucosidasa. Su deficiencia lleva a un almacenamiento anormal de glucógeno en los lisosomas de varias células, a través de los diferentes tejidos, lo que causa un compromiso musculoesquelético predominante. Contenidos: Los fenotipos de la enfermedad dependen de las variantes genéticas y de los niveles de la actividad enzimática residual. La enfermedad se presenta como EP de inicio infantil, EP de inicio tardío y EP intermedio, por lo que es de suma importancia su diagnóstico temprano, por medio de estudios moleculares como la secuenciación de Sanger y la secuenciación de nueva generación. Conclusiones: Se ha demostrado, mediante diferentes estudios, que las variaciones genéticas pueden diferir entre etnias, y es importante su caracterización molecular para determinar el tratamiento más adecuado, de acuerdo con el estado del material inmunológico de reacción cruzada (CRIM).


Introduction: Pompe disease (PD) or Glycogenosis Type II is a rare autosomal recessive disease caused by mutations in the GAA gene that codes for the alpha-1,4-glucosidase protein. Its deficiency leads to abnormal glycogen storage in the lysosomes of various cells throughout the different tissues causing a predominant musculoskeletal compromise. Contents: The phenotypes of the disease depend on the genetic variants and the levels of residual enzyme activity, presenting as infantile-onset PD, late-onset PD, and intermediate PD; Therefore, early diagnosis of the disease through molecular studies such as Sanger sequencing and new generation sequencing is of utmost importance. Conclusions: It has been shown through different studies that genetic variations can vary between ethnic groups and the molecular characterization of the variants is important to determine the most appropriate treatment depending on the state of the cross-reactive immunological material (CRIM)

ABSTRACT

Objective: to estimate the reference intervals (RIs) of complete blood count parameters in the Brazilian adult population. Methods: Cross-sectional study, with data from the National Health Survey (PNS), between 2014-2015. The final sample consisted of 2,803 adults. The final sample consisted of 2,803 adults. To establish the RI, exclusion criteria were applied, outliers were removed and partitions were made by sex, age and race/skin color. The non-parametric method was adopted. Differences were assessed using the Mann Withney and Kruskal Wallis tests (p≤0.05). Results: There were statistically significant differences for the following hematological parameters based on sex, red blood cells, hemoglobin, hematocrit, MCH, MCHC, eosinophils and absolute monocytes, neutrophils and platelets (p≤0.05). When analyzed by age, the RIs were statistically different in females for hematocrit, MCV, white blood cells and RDW and in males for red blood cells, white blood cells, eosinophils, mean platelet volume, MCV, RDW and MCH(p≤0.05). For race/color there were differences in the RIs for parameters of hemoglobin, MCH, MCHC, white blood cells and mean platelet volume, neutrophils and absolute eosinophils (p ≤ 0.05). Conclusion: The differences found in the RIs of some in blood count parameters in Brazilian adults reaffirm the importance of having their own laboratory reference standards. The results can support a more accurate interpretation of tests, adequate identification and disease prevention in Brazil.

ABSTRACT

Resumen ANTECEDENTES: La coexistencia de neoplasias mieloproliferativas durante el embarazo puede derivar en complicaciones para la madre y el feto, de ahí la indispensable necesidad de detectarlas oportunamente. CASO CLÍNICO: Paciente de 30 años, primigesta. En el control prenatal se detectó una elevación significativa de plaquetas y leucocitos. Luego de descartar un proceso infeccioso e interconsulta con el hematólogo se le indicó un antiagregante plaquetario. El embarazo transcurrió sin complicaciones de tipo trombótico o hemorrágico y finalizó mediante cesárea a las 40 semanas, indicada por falta de progresión del trabajo de parto. Posteriormente se inició el tratamiento específico para la enfermedad y seguimiento. METODOLOGÍA: La búsqueda de artículos publicados durante los últimos 20 años se efectuó en las bases de datos PubMed y Clínical Key con los MeSH "essential thrombocytemia AND pregnancy", "hematological neoplasms AND pregnancy". RESULTADOS: Se obtuvieron 14 artículos de los que se excluyeron 3 por no incluir a mujeres embarazadas. La revisión final fue de 11 artículos. CONCLUSIONES: El seguimiento correcto del control prenatal permite advertir las complicaciones médicas independientes del embarazo. Cuando así sucede es posible la intervención oportuna y la participación de otros especialistas que confirmen el diagnóstico para, en conjunto, tomen la mejor decisión en beneficio de la madre y su hijo por nacer.


Abstract BACKGROUND: The coexistence of myeloproliferative neoplasms during pregnancy may lead to maternal and fetal complications, and early detection is essential. CLINICAL CASE: A 30-year-old primigravida. Prenatal examination revealed a significant increase in platelets and leukocytes. After exclusion of an infectious process and consultation with the haematologist, she was prescribed an antiplatelet agent. The pregnancy proceeded without thrombotic or haemorrhagic complications and was terminated by caesarean section at 40 weeks, indicated for lack of progress in labour. Specific treatment of the disease and follow-up were then initiated. METHODOLOGY: Articles published in the last 20 years were searched in PubMed and Clinical Key databases using MeSH "essential thrombocythemia AND pregnancy", "haematological neoplasms AND pregnancy". RESULTS: We obtained 14 articles, of which 3 were excluded because they did not include pregnant women. The final review consisted of 11 articles. CONCLUSIONS: Correct follow-up of antenatal care can warn of medical complications independent of pregnancy. In this case, timely intervention and involvement of other specialists is possible to confirm the diagnosis and make the best joint decision for the benefit of the mother and her unborn child.

ABSTRACT

After the popularization of osseointegrated implants, factors related to tissue aesthetics have gained prominence within Implantology. The search for substitutes for connective tissue grafts grew and the use of leucocyte and platelet rich fibrin (L-PRF) membranes, due to their biological potential, began to gain attention. The objective of this prospective longitudinal study with 3 years of follow-up was to evaluate whether there was an increase in the thickness of the buccal mucosa in single implants in the anterior area of the maxilla with the use of three L-PRF membranes over the ridge at the time of implant installation. A sample of 27 patients, among the individuals who participated of the study and returned for a three-year follow-up, was divided into a test group (n=15), which received three L-PRF membranes inserted over the ridge, and a control group (n=12), who only received the dental implant. The thickness of the vestibular mucosa (EMV), buccal ridge defect (DVR), and height of keratinized tissue (ATQ) were evaluated, in addition to professional (PES/WES) and patientcentered (VAS) aesthetic evaluation. The results showed that the use of L-PRF membranes was not able to increase EMV in the test group after three years post- surgery. The DVR measure showed a significant reduction in the test group after three months of follow-up and was maintained at three years. And the ATQ measure showed a statistically significant reduction after three years. There was no significant difference between the groups in the 3-year postoperative follow- up regarding clinical measurements or aesthetic analyses(AU)


Com a popularização dos implantes osseointegrados, fatores relacionados à estética tecidual têm ganhado destaque dentro da Implantodontia. A busca por susbstitutos ao enxerto de tecido conjuntivo cresceu e a utilização de membranas de fibrina rica em plaquetas e leucócitos, devido ao seu potencial biológico, começou a ganhar atenção. O objetivo deste estudo longitudinal prospectivo com 3 anos de acompanhamento foi avaliar se houve aumento da espessura da mucosa vestibular em implantes unitários em área anterior de maxila com a utilização de três membranas de L-PRF sobre o rebordo concomitantemente à instalação dos implantes. Uma amostra de 27 pacientes, dentre os indivíduos que participaram do estudo e retornaram para o acompanhamento de três anos foi dividida entre grupos teste (n=15), que recebeu 3 membranas de L-PRF inseridas sobre o rebordo, e grupo controle (n=12), que recebeu apenas o implante dental. Foram avaliadas a espessura da mucosa vestibular (EMV), defeito vestibular de rebordo (DVR), e altura do tecido queratinizado (ATQ), além da avaliação estética profissional (PES/WES) e por parte dos pacientes (VAS). Os resultados mostraram que o uso das membranas de L-PRF não foi capaz de aumentar a EMV no grupo teste após três anos de acompanhamento pós-operatório. A medida DVR apresentou redução significativa no grupo teste após três meses de acompanhamento e se manteve aos três anos. E a medida ATQ apresentou redução estatisticamente significativa após três anos. Não houve diferença significativa entre os grupos no acompanhamento de 3 anos pós-operatório quanto às medidas clínicas ou em relação às análises estéticas.(AU)

ABSTRACT

Background and aim: The most effective way to control severity and mortality rate of the novel coronavirus disease (COVID-19) is through sensitive diagnostic approaches and an appropriate treatment protocol. We aimed to identify the effect of adding corticosteroid and Tocilizumab to a standard treatment protocol in treating COVID-19 patients with chronic disease through hematological and lab biomarkers.Materials and methodsThis study was performed retrospectively on 68 COVID-19 patients with chronic disease who were treated by different therapeutic protocols. The patients were categorized into four groups: control group represented the patients’ lab results at admission before treatment protocols were applied; group 1 included patients treated with anticoagulants, Hydroxychloroquine, and antibiotics; group 2 comprised patients treated with Dexamethasone; and group 3 included patients treated with Dexamethasone and Tocilizumab.ResultsThe WBC and neutrophil counts were increased significantly in group 3 upon the treatment when they were compared with patients in group 1 (p=0.004 and p=0.001, respectively). The comparison of C-reactive Protein (CRP) level at admission was higher in group 3 than in group 1 with p=0.030. After 10 days of treatment, CRP level was decreased in all groups, but in group 3 it was statistically significant (p=0.002).ConclusionThe study paves the way into the effectiveness of combining Dexamethasone with Tocilizumab in treatment COVID-19 patients with chronic diseases.

Antecedentes y objetivo: La forma más eficaz de controlar la gravedad y la tasa de mortalidad de la enfermedad del nuevo coronavirus (COVID-19) es mediante enfoques de diagnóstico sensibles y un protocolo de tratamiento adecuado. Nuestro objetivo fue identificar el efecto de agregar corticosteroides y tocilizumab a un protocolo de tratamiento estándar en el tratamiento de pacientes con COVID-19 con enfermedad crónica a través de biomarcadores hematológicos y de laboratorio.Materiales y métodosEste estudio se realizó de forma retrospectiva en 68 pacientes COVID-19 con enfermedad crónica que fueron tratados por diferentes protocolos terapéuticos. Los pacientes se clasificaron en cuatro grupos: el grupo de control representaba los resultados de laboratorio de los pacientes en el momento de la admisión antes de que se aplicaran los protocolos de tratamiento; el grupo 1 incluyó a pacientes tratados con anticoagulantes, hidroxicloroquina y antibióticos; el grupo 2 estaba compuesto por pacientes tratados con dexametasona; y el grupo 3 incluyó a pacientes tratados con dexametasona y tocilizumab.ResultadosLos recuentos de glóbulos blancos y neutrófilos aumentaron significativamente en el grupo 3 tras el tratamiento cuando se compararon con los pacientes del grupo 1 (p=0,004 y p=0,001, respectivamente). La comparación del nivel de proteína C reactiva (CRP) al ingreso fue mayor en el grupo 3 que en el grupo 1, con p=0,030. Después de 10 días de tratamiento, el nivel de CRP disminuyó en todos los grupos, pero en el grupo 3 fue estadísticamente significativo (p=0,002).ConclusiónEl estudio allana el camino hacia la eficacia de la combinación de dexametasona con tocilizumab en el tratamiento de pacientes con COVID-19 con enfermedades crónicas.

ABSTRACT

RESUMEN Los quistes óseos aneurismáticos son frecuentes en la edad pediátrica. Para su determinación se cuenta con diversos estudios imagenológicos como la radiografía y la tomografía axial computarizada que pueden colaborar al diagnóstico diferencial con otras lesiones. Existen disímiles opciones terapéuticas, el uso de factores de crecimiento autólogos se ha considerado como alternativa eficaz. Se presentan dos pacientes consultados en el servicio de Ortopedia del Hospital Provincial Pediátrico Universitario «José Luis Miranda¼, de Villa Clara, con diagnóstico clínico e imagenológico de quiste óseo aneurismático que recibieron tratamiento mediante terapia celular con células mononucleares con buena evolución clínica y radiográfica. Esta técnica es aplicable en nuestro medio ya que no requiere de estimables recursos materiales lo que constituye una fortaleza para su implementación. Las radiografías permiten reconocer la evolución posterior al tratamiento.


ABSTRACT Aneurysmal bone cysts are common in children. For its determination, various imaging studies are available, such as radiography and computerized axial tomography, which can collaborate in the differential diagnosis with other lesions. There are dissimilar therapeutic options, the use of autologous growth factors has been considered as an effective alternative. We present two patients seen in the Orthopedics service at "José Luis Miranda" University Pediatric Hospital in Villa Clara, with a clinical and imaging diagnosis of aneurysmal bone cyst who received treatment with mononuclear cell therapy having a good clinical and radiographic evolution. This technique is applicable in our environment since it does not require considerable material resources, which constitutes a strength for its implementation. X-rays allow us to recognize the evolution after treatment.

ABSTRACT

Los biomateriales son todos aquellos materiales aceptados por el organismo y pueden ser obtenidos de manera autóloga o sintética lo que dependería del tipo de utilidad que proporcionará el profesional odontólogo. La utilización de estos materiales se ha ido incrementando en la medida en que se ven favorecidos los pacientes en el proceso de reparación de los tejidos. El plasma rico en plaquetas (PRP) es el contenido de plaquetas en forma de sobrenadante tras la centrifugación de sangre anti coagulada; constituye la principal fuente de actividad mitógena en el plasma sanguíneo y actúa como vehículo portador de factores de crecimiento y proteínas importantes en la biología ósea. Los factores de crecimiento son un conjunto de sustancias de naturaleza peptídica cuya función es la comunicación intercelular a nivel molecular. Regulan la migración, la proliferación, la diferenciación, el metabolismo y la apoptosis celular, y estimulan el aumento del tamaño celular al incrementar la síntesis proteica de las células sobre las que actúan. Este trabajo tiene por objetivo revisar los biomateriales utilizados en cirugía bucal en la literatura actualizada en los sitios web como Mendeley, Cicco, Science Direct, Wiley, Springer Open, Scielo, BVS, Google Académico, PubMed.


Biomaterials are all those materials accepted by the organism and can be obtained autologously or synthetically, which would depend on the type of use provided by the professional dentist. The use of these materials has increased as patients are favored in the process of repairing tissues. Platelet rich plasma (PRP) is the content of platelets in the form of a supernatant after centrifugation of anti-coagulated blood; it constitutes the main source of mitogenic activity in blood plasma and acts as a carrier of growth factors and important proteins in bone biology. Growth factors are a set of substances of a peptide nature whose function is intercellular communication at the molecular level. They regulate cell migration, proliferation, differentiation, metabolism and apoptosis, stimulate an increase of cell size by increasing the protein synthesis of the cells on which they act. This work aims to review the biomaterials used in oral surgery in updated literature on websites such as Mendeley, Cicco, Science Direct, wiley, springer open, Scielo, BVS, Google Academico, PubMed.

ABSTRACT

Resumen El aborto enzootico ovino es una enfermedad causada por Chlamydia abortus. Es considerada una zoonosis y una de las principales causas de pérdidas económicas en estas explotaciones. Este trabajo se enfocó en utilizar el cultivo de leucocitos de animales sin signos de abortos y la detección de anticuerpos para determinar la posible presencia de C. abortus en explotaciones de traspatio. Se obtuvieron 42 muestras de sangre periférica de ovejas de diferentes poblaciones. La detección de Chlamydia abortus se realizó mediante la tinción de Giemsa y la técnica de PCR. La detección de anticuerpos anti-C. abortus se dio mediante una técnica de ELISA comercial. Los resultados mostraron 21 muestras positivas mediante la técnica de PCR, de las cuales solo 10 fueron positivas mediante la técnica de Giemsa, mientras que 22 sueros mostraron anticuerpos anti-C. abortus. En este estudio el 38,1 % de las muestras fueron positivas a la infección por C. abortus, como se confirmó mediante PCR y serología. En conclusión, los leucocitos de sangre periférica pueden ser útiles para detectar una infección por Chlamydia spp. en explotaciones sin historial de abortos, con lo que se puede conocer la prevalencia real del aborto enzootico ovino en México.


Abstract The Ewes Enzootic Abortion is a disease caused byChlamydia abortus. It is deemed a zoonosis and one of the leading causes of financial losses in this type of business. This article focuses on using the culture of leukocytes from animals without any abortion symptoms and antibody detection to determine the potential presence ofC. abortusin backyard exploitations. Forty-two samples of peripheral blood were obtained from ewes in different populations. The detection ofChlamydia abortuswas carried out by using the Giemsa dye and PCR technique. Anti-C. Abortusantibody detection was performed through a commercial ELISA technique. Results showed 21 positive samples using the PCR, and only ten were positive according to the Giemsa dye, while 22 serum samples showed anti-C. abortusantibody. In this study, 38.1% of the samples were positive for theC. abortusinfection, as verified with the PCR and serology. In conclusion, peripheral blood leukocytes can be helpful to detect an infection caused byChlamydiaspp. Animal exploitation without any previous abortion allows knowing the real prevalence of ewes' enzootic abortion in Mexico.

ABSTRACT

OBJETIVO: Evaluar el rendimiento del Gram, la glucosa y los leucocitos en líquido amniótico para el diagnóstico de respuesta inflamatoria fetal y materna en pacientes con parto pretérmino. MÉTODO: Estudio de rendimiento de pruebas diagnósticas. Se incluyeron 63 pacientes a quienes se les realizó amniocentesis por sospecha de infección intraamniótica. Se estudió la placenta y se comparó con el Gram, la glucosa y el recuento de leucocitos en líquido amniótico para ver su relación con la respuesta inflamatoria. Se evaluaron la sensibilidad, la especificidad, las razones de verosimilitud (LR, likelihood ratio), los valores predictivos y el valor de kappa. RESULTADOS: Las pruebas con mejor rendimiento fueron en conjunto la glucosa 50/mm3 en líquido amniótico, con una especificidad del 94,3% (intervalo de confianza del 95% [IC95%]: 84,6-98,1), LR + 8,83 (IC95%: 2,5-31,2) y kappa de 0,48 (IC95%: 0,15-0,82). También se consideró la propuesta de un nuevo punto de corte para el recuento de leucocitos en líquido amniótico en la respuesta inflamatoria fetal. CONCLUSIONES: La combinación del recuento de leucocitos en líquido amniótico y los valores de glucosa mejora el rendimiento para el diagnóstico de respuesta inflamatoria fetal en comparación con la histopatología de la placenta, lo que proporciona información útil para el enfoque de los recién nacidos.


OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the performance of Gram, glucose and leukocytes in amniotic fluid for the diagnosis of fetal and maternal inflammatory response in patients with preterm delivery. METHOD: A diagnostic performance test study was carried out. Sixty-three patients with preterm labor were included who underwent amniocentesis due to suspected intra-amniotic infection. Histopathology of the placenta was studied and compared with the Gram result, glucose and leukocyte count in amniotic fluid, and their relationship with the maternal and fetal inflammatory response. Sensitivity, specificity, likelihood ratios, predictive values, and kappa were evaluated. RESULTS: The tests with the best performance were overall glucose 50/mm3 in amniotic fluid for the diagnosis of the fetal inflammatory response, with a specificity of 94.3% (95% confidence interval [95% CI]: 84.6-98.1%), likelihood positive ratio 8.83 (95% CI: 2.5-31.2) and kappa of 0.48 (95% CI: 0.15-0.82). A new cut-off point for leukocyte count in amniotic fluid to diagnose fetal inflammatory response was proposed. CONCLUSIONS: The combination of amniotic fluid leukocyte count and amniotic fluid glucose values improves performance for the diagnosis of inflammatory response compared with placental histopathology, providing useful information for newborns approach.

ABSTRACT

Objetivo : Establecer la utilidad del contaje de leucocitos y relación neutrófilos/ linfocitos en el segundo trimestre del embarazo como predictor del desarrollo de preeclampsia. Diseño: Estudio de casos-controles. Institución. Hospital Central "Dr. Urquinaona", Venezuela. Participantes : Embarazadas entre 17 y 20 semanas que acudieron a la consulta prenatal y fueron seguidas hasta el término del embarazo. Métodos: Se tomaron muestras de sangre de las gestantes, que fueron seguidas hasta el parto para establecer si desarrollaban preeclampsia. Principales medidas de resultado. Características generales de las pacientes, valores de leucocitos, neutrófilos, linfocitos, relación neutrófilos/linfocitos y eficacia pronóstica. Resultados : De las 504 pacientes seleccionadas, 41 embarazadas desarrollaron preeclampsia (grupo A) y 463 embarazadas fueron consideradas como controles (grupo B). No se encontraron diferencias estadísticamente significativas en las características generales al inicio del estudio (p = ns). La edad gestacional en el momento del diagnóstico de preeclampsia en el grupo A fue de 35,0 ± 3,2 semanas. Se encontró que las pacientes del grupo A presentaron valores significativamente más elevados de leucocitos, neutrófilos y relación neutrófilos/linfocitos junto a valores más bajos de linfocitos comparados con las pacientes del grupo B (p < 0,05). Solo los valores absolutos de neutrófilos (área bajo la curva 0,810) y de relación neutrófilos/linfocitos (área bajo la curva 0,963) tuvieron valores pronósticos útiles para discriminar entre los grupos de pacientes para el desarrollo de preeclampsia (p < 0,05). Conclusión: La relación neutrófilos/linfocitos y el contaje absoluto de neutrófilos en el segundo trimestre del embarazo son herramientas útiles en la predicción de preeclampsia.


Objective : To establish the usefulness of leukocyte count and neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio in the second trimester of pregnancy as a predictor of the development of preeclampsia. Design : Case-control study. Institution: Hospital Central "Dr. Urquinaona", Venezuela. Participants : Pregnant women between 17 and 20 weeks who attended prenatal consultation and were followed up to term. Methods: Blood samples were taken from the pregnant women who were followed until delivery to establish whether they developed preeclampsia. Main outcome measures: General characteristics of the patients, values of leukocytes, neutrophils, lymphocytes, neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio and prognostic efficacy. Results : Of the 504 patients selected, 41 pregnant women developed preeclampsia (group A) and 463 pregnant women were considered as controls (group B). No statistically significant differences were found in overall characteristics at baseline (p = ns). The gestational age at the time of diagnosis of preeclampsia in group A was 35.0 +/3.2 weeks. Patients in group A were found to have significantly higher values of leukocytes, neutrophils and neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio along with lower values of lymphocytes compared to patients in group B (p < 0.05). Only the absolute values of neutrophils (area under the curve 0.810) and neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio (area under the curve 0.963) had useful prognostic values for discriminating between patient groups for the development of preeclampsia (p < 0.05). Conclusion: The neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio and absolute neutrophil count in the second trimester of pregnancy are useful tools in the prediction of preeclampsia.

ABSTRACT

Introduction: Platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) is formed by an autologous blood concentrate, with properties that promote cell proliferation and regenerationof bone, gingival and epithelial tissue. Objective: To compare four different procedures for processing as well as obtaining PRF, and analyzing their formation through laboratory techniques. The purpose of the study is to validate a method that produces higher quality PRF for oral surgery use in different branches of dentistry. Material and method: The experiment consisted of collecting blood from 12 volunteers, and processing each patient's sample in 4 different ways. In the following two-stage process analysis, the first, quantitative, step was to analyze the samples' platelet-poor plasma (PPP),with a Neubauer Hemocytometer to count blood components. In the second, qualitative step, the sample's PRF were analyzed under microscopy using histological slides. Result: The statistical analysis of the leukocyte, red blood cell and platelet count did not show any significant distinction when comparing different processes. Histological analysis of the PRF showed fibrin network with platelet aggregation, several leukocytes and presence of red blood cells, with double centrifuged samples presenting more white blood cells than the others. Conclusion: Among the analyzed procedures, the sample centrifuged once at 3000 RPM (1900 G) for 10 min showed the best quality PRF.


Introdução: A fibrina rica em plaquetas (FRP) é formada por um concentrado sanguíneo autólogo, com propriedades de promover a proliferação celular, regeneração de tecido, dentre eles tecido ósseo, gengival e epitelial. Objetivo: Comparar quatro tipos diferentes de processamento e obtenção de FRP, analisando a sua formação através de técnicas laboratoriais. A finalidade do estudo é validar um método que obtenha maior qualidade para o uso em cirurgias nas diversas áreas da odontologia. Material e método: O experimento foi constituído de uma coleta de sangue de 12 voluntários, onde a amostra de cada paciente foi processada de 4 formas. A análise dos processamentos se deu em duas etapas, onde na primeira, quantitativa, foi analisado o plasma pobre em plaquetas (PPP), através de contagem de constituintes sanguíneos em câmara de Neubauer. Na segunda etapa, qualitativa, foram analisadas as FRP em microscopia através de lâminas histológicas. Resultado: A análise estatística da contagem de leucócitos, hemácias e plaquetas não mostraram diferença significativa entre os distintos processamentos. As análises histológicas do FRP mostraram redes de fibrina com agregação plaquetária, inúmeros leucócitos e presença de hemácias, sendo que as amostras de dupla centrifugação apresentaram mais leucócitos que nas demais. Conclusão: Dos procedimentos analisados, a amostra centrifugada a 1 única vez a 3000 RPM (1900 G) por 10 min mostrou-se a melhor qualidade de FRP.

ABSTRACT

Debido a la alta frecuencia de las recesiones periodontales y sus repercusiones, de comparar los efectos de los diferentes derivados plaquetarios utilizados en el tratamiento de lesiones en tejidos blandos y duros orales. Se realizó una búsqueda en Pubmed/ Medline, EMBASE, el Registro de Ensayos del Cochrane Oral Health Group, Lilacs de ensayos clínicos que utilicen concentrados plaquetarios para el tratamiento de defectos periodontales y periimplantarios en comparación con los tratamientos convencionales. Los principales resultados observados no mostraron diferencias significativas en ninguna de las siguientes variables: profundidad de sondaje, nivel de inserción clínico, recubrimiento radicular mediante colgajo de avance coronal y grosor de encía queratinizada. La única variable estudiada en la que se encontraron diferencias significativas fue en la realización de un colgajo de acceso agregando concentrados plaquetarios y sin ellos. Podemos concluir en este estudio que los derivados plaquetarios como el plasma rico en plaquetas (PRP), plasma rico en fibrina (PRF) y el plasma rico en fibrina y leucocitos (L-PRF) pueden ser beneficiosos en el tratamiento y regeneración de tejidos blandos y duros periodontales y periimplantarios. No obstante, se necesita más investigación para analizar detalladamente el comportamiento de estos derivados sanguíneos. (AU)


This study was put forward as a result of the number and consequences of periodontal recessions, this review aims to compare the effects of different types of platelet concentrates used to treat hard and soft oral tissue defects. In order to do so, clinical trials were researched based on the usage of platelet concentrates, compared with conventional treatments were searched in PubMed/Medline, EMBASE, Cochrane Oral Health Group, and Lilacs. Within the main outcomes, there were not found remarkable differences in any of the following factors: probing depth, clinical attachment level, root coverage, coronal advance fl ap, keratinized gingival width. There was only signifi cant distinction on the studies that compared the usage of an access fl ap variable with and without platelet concentrates. To sum up, seems to be benefi cial the addition of platelet rich plasma (PRP), platelet rich fibrin (PRF) and leucocyte platelet rich fibrin (L-PRF) to the treatment when dealing with periodontal and periimplant defects. Nevertheless, further investigations and studies are needed in order to be able to analyze in detail the behavior of these blood products. (AU)
