RESUMO
Control of the unstable THA can be problematic, but conservative management with casting and bracing can assist the patient in gaining stability, both externally and internally. The application of such appliances does not negatively affect the ultimate function of the hip and can prevent further surgical intervention.

The relative effectiveness of 4 organophosphate compounds was tested in the laboratory against Culicoides spp. larvae obtained from salt marsh areas on the Gulf coast of Florida. Larvae were exposed to the insecticide either in estuarine water or in a combination of estuarine water and dried substrate from the salt marsh habitat. The relative potency of the 4 chemicals varied greatly, with chlorpyrifos being the most toxic. Nine times as much temephos, 22 times as much fenthion, and 176 times as much malathion were required to achieve the 50% mortality level compared to chloryprifos (LC50, 0.5 ppb) in water. Addition of habitat soil did not change the order of effectiveness, but 9 times as much chlorpyrifos, 2.3 times as much temephos, and 1.3 times as much fenthion or malathion were required to cause the same mortality as in estuarine water alone.
