ABSTRACT

Abstract Acute calcific periarthritis (ACP) is defined as periarticular inflammation associated with intra-articular deposits of hydroxyapatite and other basic calcium phosphate crystals. Patients with ACP present with a sudden onset of pain, together with localized swelling, as well as erythema, tenderness, and reduced range of motion. Familiarity with the clinical and radiological manifestations of ACP aids in the diagnosis and helps differentiate it from other conditions, particularly infectious or inflammatory pathologies such as septic arthritis and gout, thereby reducing the number of unnecessary diagnostic and therapeutic procedures. The objective of this pictorial essay is to illustrate the imaging findings of ACP in various joints, with an emphasis on the findings obtained by magnetic resonance imaging.


Resumo A periartrite cálcica aguda (PCA) é uma inflamação periarticular aguda associada a depósitos justa-articulares de hidroxiapatita e outros cristais básicos de fosfato de cálcio. Os pacientes apresentam início súbito de dor, edema localizado, eritema, sensibilidade e redução da amplitude de movimentos. A familiaridade com as manifestações clínicas e radiológicas da PCA facilita o diagnóstico e permite diferenciá-la de outras entidades, em particular, com doenças infecciosas ou inflamatórias, como artrite séptica e gota, reduzindo procedimentos diagnósticos e terapêuticos desnecessários. O objetivo deste ensaio iconográfico é ilustrar os achados de imagem de PCA em algumas articulações, com ênfase na ressonância magnética.

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE: To study the prevalence of shoulder pain and dysfunction in patients from Southern Brazil with diabetes mellitus (DM) and to evaluate the association of pain and dysfunction with diabetes control and epidemiological factors. SUBJECTS AND METHODS: We studied 150 patients with type 2 DM for pain and shoulder dysfunction with the UCLA-m (modified University of California at Los Angeles Shoulder Rating Scale); for epidemiological and treatment data, values of Hb A1C and plasma glucose were analyzed. RESULTS: Pain was present in 63.4%, and dysfunction in 53.4% of the studied sample; 26.6% of the patients rated shoulder performance as bad. No association was found between Hb A1C or plasma glucose and joint function, except for active flexion of the shoulder and fasting glucose (p = 0.026). Women had worse shoulder performance (p = 0.0043), as did elderly patients (p < 0.0001). CONCLUSIONS: Shoulder pain and dysfunction is highly prevalent in patients with type 2 diabetes; these disorders affect more women and the elderly.


OBJETIVO: Estudar a prevalência de dor e disfunção do ombro em pacientes com diabetes melito (DM) do sul do Brasil e verificar a possível associação com controle glicêmico e fatores epidemiológicos. SUJEITOS E MÉTODOS: Estudaram-se 150 pacientes com DM tipo 2 para dor e disfunção do ombro pelo instrumento UCLAm (University of California at Los Angeles Shoulder Rating Scale modificada), dados epidemiológicos e de tratamento, valores de Hb A1C e glicemia de jejum. RESULTADOS: Verificou-se que havia dor em 63,4% e disfunção em 53,4% da amostra estudada. Em 26,6% dos pacientes, o desempenho do ombro foi considerado ruim. Não se encontrou associação de Hb A1C e glicemia de jejum com dor e disfunção do ombro salvo pela associação entre flexão ativa dessa articulação com glicemia de jejum (p = 0,026). As mulheres tinham pior desempenho do ombro (p = 0,0043), assim como os mais idosos (p < 0,0001). CONCLUSÕES: Existe uma prevalência muito alta de dor e disfunção do ombro em pacientes com DM tipo 2, sendo maior em mulheres e idosos.
