RESUMO

This study aimed to assess the levels of anxiety, depression, and quality of life in hospitalized men and women using the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS), Beck's Anxiety Inventory (BAI), and Short Form-36 Health Survey Questionnaire (SF-36). 60 patients of both sexes were recruited from at the outpatient department of the Hospital Universitário de Vassouras (HUV). The HADS-Anxiety (HADS-A) and BAI questionnaires were used to assess anxiety; the HADS-Depression (HADS-D) questionnaire to assess levels of depression, and the SF-36 to assess the quality of life. The results indicated that hospitalized women had higher levels of anxiety when compared to men. No difference was observed in the levels of depression between men and women. Regarding quality of life, women showed more deterioration in general and mental health compared to men. Thus, the findings suggest that hospitalized women have higher levels of anxiety when compared to men and that this increase can lead to worse general and mental health. Professionals should be aware of possible psychological changes in hospitalized women as they can affect the overall quality of life.

RESUMO

The aim of the present study was to investigate the involvement of oxidative stress in acute lung injury (ALI) induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and its effects upon cell structure, function and inflammation. In total, 108 male C57BL/6 mice were divided into seven groups: CTR Group (50 µL of saline) administered intratracheally (i.t.), LPS 6 h (10 µg of LPS - i.t.), LPS 12 h (10 µg of LPS - i.t.), LPS 24 h (10 µg of LPS - i.t.), LPS 48 h (10 µg of LPS - i.t.), LPS 24 h (10 µg - i.t.) + NAC 40 mg/kg (gavage) and 24 h LPS (10 µg - i.t.) + NAC 100 mg/kg (gavage). The antioxidant treatment protected the lungs from stress in the first 12 h, but significant oxidative stress induction was observed at the 24-hour time point, and, after 48 h, there was no protection exerted by the antioxidant treatment. NAC (N-acetylcysteine) reversed the elastance parameters, and ΔP1 and ΔP2 compared with 24 h LPS alone. NAC reduced the number of inflammatory cells in histology analysis when compared with the 24 h LPS alone-treated group. NAC also inhibited the transcription of NFκB, IL-6, TNF-α and COX2 usually induced by LPS. Our results suggest that oxidative stress plays an important role in structural, functional and inflammatory responses in the ALI model.
