RESUMO

The administration of antifungals for therapeutic and, especially, prophylactic purposes is virtually a constant in patients requiring hematology-oncology treatment. Any attempt to prevent or treat Aspergillus or Mucor infections requires the administration of some drugs in the azole group, which include voriconazole, posaconazole and isavuconazole, noted for their activity against these pathogens. One very relevant aspect is the potential risk of interaction when associated with one of the antineoplastic drugs used to treat hematologic tumors, with serious complications. In this regard, acalabrutinib, bortezomib, bosutinib, carfilzomib, cyclophosphamide, cyclosporine A, dasatinib, duvelisib, gilteritinib, glasdegib, ibrutinib, imatinib, nilotinib, ponatinib, prednisone, ruxolitinib, tacrolimus, all-transretinoic acid, arsenic trioxide, venetoclax, or any of the vinca alkaloids, are very clear examples of risk, in some cases because their clearance is reduced and in others because of increased risk of QTc prolongation, which is particularly evident when the drug of choice is voriconazole or posaconazole.

RESUMO

Resumen: Introducción: Las luxaciones anteriores de hombro ocurren en > 90% de las inestabilidades de hombro, la principal causa es traumática, describiéndose dos principales lesiones en esta patología: la lesión de Bankart y la de Hill-Sachs, existiendo una tasa de recurrencia similar en la reparación quirúrgica abierta y con ventaja de la cirugía artroscópica de realizar incisiones pequeñas, menor pérdida del rango de movimiento, menor riesgo de daño del músculo subescapular, retorno más rápido a las actividades diarias y mayor satisfacción de los pacientes. Objetivo: Valorar la funcionabilidad, movilidad y estabilidad postquirúrgica del hombro de los pacientes sometidos a tratamiento con dos técnicas artroscópicas: reparación de lesión de Bankart pura versus reparación Bankart + remplissage. Material y métodos: Se revisaron expedientes clínicos, se valoraron pacientes con inestabilidad de hombro y con lesiones de Hill-Sachs y Bankart; con un total de 21 pacientes postquirúrgicos se realizaron exploraciones físicas para valoración de los arcos de movimiento y aplicación de escalas funcionales de Rowe y Western Ontario Shoulder Instability Index, con el fin de medir la estabilidad postquirúrgica. Resultados: No hubo recurrencia de luxación con ninguna de las dos técnicas, se observó mayor satisfacción en el grupo de remplissage; sin embargo, la limitación del arco de movimiento es mayor. Conclusión: Ambas técnicas artroscópicas fueron capaces de restaurar la función, disminuir el dolor y satisfacer en su mayoría a los pacientes de nuestra serie de casos en el seguimiento a corto y mediano plazo.


Abstract: Background: Anterior shoulder dislocation occurs in more than 90% of the time, the main cause is traumatic, describing two main lesions in this pathology: Bankart's and Hill-Sachs's injury, the recurrence rate is not similar in open repair and with a possible advantage of arthroscopic surgery with less loss of movement range, lower risk of subscapular muscle damage, faster return to daily activities and increased patient satisfaction. Objective: Assessing functionality, mobility and stability of the shoulder in patients treated: arthroscopic Bankart repair versus arthroscopic Bankart repair + remplissage. Methods: Clinical records of patients with shoulder instability were reviewed Hill-Sachs and Bankart lesions were doumented; 21 post-surgical patients and were physically examined to evaluate the range of motion, Rowe functional scales and Western Ontario Shoulder Instability Index were used. 13 months of follow up as an average. Results: There was no recurrence of dislocation with either technique, greater satisfaction was observed in the remplissage group; however, the limitation of the motion arc is greater. Conclusion: Both groups reduce instability, control pain and mostly satisfy patients in the 13-month follow-up.

RESUMO

Objetivos: el objetivo principal fue evaluar la eficacia de Vareniclina a mitad de dosis, comparada con la habitual, en la Unidad de Tabaquismo del Hospital Universitario Virgen Macarena. Los objetivos secundarios fueron valorar: -la influencia de comorbilidades respiratorias, cardiovasculares y psiquiátricas, así como el consumo de otras drogas -la evolución de la escala hospitalaria de ansiedad/ depresión (HADS). Métodos: ensayo clínico prospectivo, aleatorizado, a 2 grupos, con una 1ª visita médica y soporte cognitivoconductual durante un año. Se emplearon pautas cortas (2 meses) a dosis de 1 mg/12h vs 0,5 mg/12h. Resultados: la tasa de abstinencia a un año fue del 46,5% con 1 mg vs 46,4% con 0,5 mg, p = 1,0. Los pacientes con síndrome metabólico (n = 27) presentaron mejor abstinencia (74,1% vs 42,3%, p = 0,01). Aquellos con EPOC (n = 162, 33,5%) también dejaron de fumar más (52,5% vs 43,5%, p = 0,067). Sin embargo, el asma bronquial (n = 41) suponía más dificultad para dejar de fumar (26,8% vs 49,1%, p = 0,005). De los 109 previamente diagnosticados de ansiedaddepresión, un 41,3% dejó de fumar vs un 49% (p = 0,154), observándose una tendencia a mejor abstinencia con la dosis reducida (44,3% vs 37,5% con la dosis estándar, p = 0,094). En cuanto a la evolución de los parámetros psiquiátricos, se realizó el HADS al comienzo, a los 3 meses y al año, objetivándose una reducción >50%, incluso más llamativa en el subgrupo de adicción a drogas


Aims: the main aim of the trial was to evaluate the efficacy of low dose Varenicline, compared to the standard dose, at the Stop-Smoking Clinic of the Virgen Macarena University Hospital. The secondary aims were to evaluate: -the influence of respiratory, cardiovascular and psychiatric diseases, as well as consumption of other drugs -the evolution of hospital anxiety/depression scale (HADS). Methods: randomized parallel-group controlled trial, with a baseline visit and 6 follow-ups during 1 year. Patients were randomized either to 1 mg or 0.5 mg (both twice daily during 8 weeks). Results: abstinence rates at 1 year were 46.5% with 1 mg vs. 46.4% with 0.5 mg (p = 1.0) Patients with metabolic syndrome (n = 27) had better quit rates than those without this condition (74,1% vs 42,3%, p = 0,01).Patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) (n = 162, 33,5%) were more successful in quitting smoking than those who did not have this disease (52,5% vs 43,5%, p = 0,067). However, having bronchial asthma (n = 41) was related to having more difficulties in stopping smoking (26,8% vs 49,1%, p = 0,005). From the 109 patients previously diagnosed with anxiety and depression disorder, 41,3% stopped smoking vs 49% of those who did not have this condition (p = 0,154). There was a tendency to better results with the low dose (44,3% vs 37,5% with the standard dose, p = 0,094). Regarding to the evolution of the psychiatric parameters, there was a reduction of more than 50% of the HADS score from the start of the program to the end of the follow-up year

RESUMO

INTRODUCCIÓN: la inactividad es un hallazgo permanente en los pacientes EPOC y tiene clara implicación pronóstica, asociándose con un aumento de la morbimortalidad. Sin embargo, aún no disponemos de estrategias eficaces para aumentar el nivel de actividad física de nuestros pacientes. El objetivo del trabajo fue evaluar el impacto de un programa de rehabilitación respiratoria (RR) en el nivel de actividad física en EPOC, medido por acelerómetro. MÉTODO: estudio longitudinal, prospectivo y randomizado en 2 grupos: control y de intervención, con programa de RR mixto de 12 semanas (3 sesiones/semana) con seguimiento a 3 meses. Se midió actividad física mediante acelerómetro, de forma basal y a los 3 meses en ambos grupos. RESULTADOS: n: 36 (RR 19 vs control 17). La mayoría hombres, con edad media de 64 ± 3,6 en RR y 64,9 ± 10,1 en control, con una obstrucción grave (RR 45,5 ± 15,9% vs control 33,8 ± 7,3%) y un consumo acumulado de tabaco significativamente mayor en el grupo control (RR 49 vs control 65,4 paq/año). Basalmente, los sujetos de ambos grupos eran sedentarios. Tras finalizar el programa de entrenamiento, no se encontraron diferencias significativas en las variables de actividad física analizadas en ninguno grupo. En cuanto a tolerancia al ejercicio, el grupo de rehabilitación presentó mejores resultados que el control (PM6M: RR 478 ± 33,6 m vs control 367,7 ± 106 m, p 0,01/Submáximo: RR 1.231,1 ± 640,4 vs control 390 ± 155 seg, p 0,01. CONCLUSIONES: en nuestro trabajo, un programa específico de rehabilitación respiratoria mejora la tolerancia al ejercicio de los pacientes, pero el beneficio en cuanto actividad física continúa siendo controvertido


INTRODUCTION: inactivity is a permanent finding in COPD patients and it has clear prognostic implications associated with an increase in morbidity-mortality rate. Nevertheless, we do not have effective strategies to increase physical activity in our patients. The objective of this work was to assess the impact of a respiratory rehabilitation (RR) program on the physical activity level of COPD patients, measured with an accelerometer. METHOD: longitudinal, prospective and randomized study in two groups: control and intervention group, with a mixed, 12-week (3 weekly sessions) RR program with three month follow-up. Physical activity was measured with an accelerometer, baseline measurement and after three months in both groups. RESULTS: n: 36 (RR 19 vs control 17). Most of the participants were men, with a mean age of 64 ± 3.6 in RR y 64.9 ± 10,1 in the control group, with serious obstruction (RR 45.5 ± 15.9% vs control 33.8 ± 7.3%) and accumulated tobacco consumption that was significantly higher in the control group (RR 49 vs Control 65.4 pack/yr.). In basal metabolism terms, the subjects in both groups were sedentary. Upon concluding the training program, no significant differences were found in the variables for physical activity analyzed in either group. In terms of exercise tolerance, the rehabilitation group presented better results than the control group. (PM6M: RR 478 ± 33.6 m vs Control 367.7 ± 106 m, p 0.01/Submaxim: RR 1,231.1 ± 640.4 vs 390 ± 155 sec., p 0.01. CONCLUSIONS: this study shows that a respiratory rehabilitation program improves tolerance to exercise in patients, but the benefits of physical activity continue to be controversial

RESUMO

INTRODUCCIÓN: numerosos trabajos han intentado ver la aplicabilidad de la FeNO para el diagnóstico o para el control y regulación del tratamiento en el asma bronquial. Dado que el significado real de los valores de la FeNO en relación a la obstrucción bronquial sigue siendo incierto, intentar esclarecer esta circunstancia tiene un enorme interés en la práctica clínica diaria. MATERIAL Y MÉTODO: se realizó un estudio de corte trasversal de pacientes diagnosticados de asma leve-moderada, según criterios de la GEMA 2009, durante 9 meses. Se recogieron datos de control de asma (ACQ), FeNO basal, espirometría basal (FEV1), test de metacolina (PD20) y tras broncodilatación. En un subgrupo de pacientes se realizaron espirometrías seriadas. RESULTADOS: Se analizaron 48 asmáticos. La puntuación de ACQ fue de 1,7 ± 0,3 (0,7 - 2) puntos. El FEV1 basal fue 2,93 ± 0,8 (92 ± 16%). Al final del test de la metacolina, tanto el FEV1 como el FeNO caían significativamente respecto a los basales. Los pacientes que estaban en tratamiento con corticoides inhalados tenían unas cifras de FeNO menores que los que estaban sin corticoides: 21,4 ± 10 ppb, frente a 50,2 ± 29 ppb; p0,001. Se encontró una correlación significativa entre la disminución de FeNO, expresado en % del basal y la disminución de FEV1, expresado tanto en cifras absolutas como en % (R = 0,52 y 0,583, respectivamente). Se diseñó una curva ROC, recodificando la variable de disminución de FeNO en dos grupos, según disminuyesen más o menos de un 10% (área bajo la curva de 0,928, p < 0,001). Considerando como punto de corte un 18% de disminución de FEV1, se obtuvo una sensibilidad del 85% y una especificidad del 87%. No se encontraron diferencias en el subgrupo donde se realizaron maniobras espirométricas repetidas. CONCLUSIONES: Existe una afectación de la medida de la FeNO tras las variaciones agudas del calibre bronquial, con pruebas de metacolina y tras broncodilatadores, utilizando sistemas portátiles con sensor electroquímico, debiendo valorarse el impacto de estos hallazgos en el seguimiento de los pacientes asmáticos


INTRODUCTION: several studies have tried to implementFeNOfor diagnosis or to control and regulate bronchial asthma treatments. Given that the significance of FeNO values regardingbronchial obstruction continues to be uncertain, clarifying this circumstance is extremely interesting for daily clinical practice. MATERIAL AND METHOD: across-sectional study was carried out with patients who were diagnosed with mild to moderate asthma, in keeping with the GEMA 2009 criteria, for 9 months. Asthma control data was collected (ACQ), basal FeNO, basal spirometry (FEV1), methacholine test (PD20) and post-bronchodilation. In a sub-group of patients, serial spirometry was carried out. RESULTS: 48 asthmatic patients were analyzed. The ACQ score was 1.7 ± 0.3 (0.7 - 2) points. Basal FEV1 was 2.93 ± 0.8 (92 ± 16%). Upon concluding the methacholine test, both FEV1 andFeNOfell significantly with regards to basal values. Patients treated with inhaled corticosteroids had lower FeNOlevels thanthose not oncorticosteroids: 21.4 ± 10 ppb, compared to 50.2 ± 29 ppb; p < 0.001. A significant correlation was seen between the decrease in FeNO, expressed in percentage of basal values, and the decrease of FEV1, expressed both in absolute values as well as in percentages, R = 0.52 and 0.583, respectively). A ROC (receiver operative curve) analysis was performed, recoding the decreased variable for FeNOinto two groups, based on a reduction of more or less than 10% (area under the curve was 0.928, p <0.001).A 18% cutoff for FEV1 decline had a 85% sensitivity and 87% specificity. No differences were found in the sub-group where repeated spirometrictests were performed. CONCLUSIONS: there is anaffectationwhen measuring FeNOafter acute variations of the bronchial caliber, with methacholine tests and after bronchodilators, using portable systems with electrochemical sensors. The impact of these findings for the follow-up of asthmatic patients must be assessed

RESUMO

La relación entre tabaquismo y patología psiquiátrica está bien establecida. Estos pacientes suponen un reto por presentar mayor riesgo de recaídas y empeoramiento de su enfermedad de base tras dejar de fumar. Nuestro objetivo fue valorar la influencia de un programa de abandono del tabaco en el estado emocional de un grupo de pacientes psiquiátricos. MÉTODO: se realizó un estudio de cohortes observacional y prospectivo de pacientes psiquiátricos que acudieron a dejar de fumar mediante programa combinado de tratamiento farmacológico y psicológico cognitivo-conductual. Se midió la presencia de síntomas de ansiedad y depresión utilizando el cuestionario HADS al inicio, al mes y los tres meses de dejar de fumar. RESULTADOS: la ansiedad y la depresión presentaron mejoría significativa y progresiva a lo largo del tratamiento (ansiedad basal 11,3 ± 4,5; ansiedad 1 mes 7,1 ± 3,7; ansiedad 3 meses 5,3 ± 3,5; p < 0,05 / depresión basal 7,4 ± 4,8; depresión 1 mes 4,2 ± 3,6; depresión 3 meses 3 ± 2,9; p < 0,05). La tasa de abstinencia, que fue de 53,2% no se vio afectada por los niveles basales de ansiedad y depresión. CONCLUSIONES: los niveles de ansiedad y depresión evolucionan de forma favorable durante el programa, alcanzándose buenos resultados


The relationship between smoking and psychiatric conditions has been firmly established. These patients are a real challenge as they are at a greater risk of relapse and their condition may worsen once they have stopped smoking. Our objective was to assess the influence of a program to stop smoking on the emotional state of a group of psychiatric patients. METHOD: an observational and prospective cohort study was carried out with a group of psychiatric patients who participated in a program to stop smoking that combined pharmacological and cognitive-behavioral psychological treatments. The presence of anxiety and depression was measured using the HADS (Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale) questionnaire at the onset of the program; it was repeated after one month and then three months after they stopped smoking. RESULTS: anxiety and depression showed significant and progressive improvement throughout the treatment (basal anxiety 11.3 ± 4.5; anxiety at 1 month 7.1 ± 3.7; anxiety at 3 months 5.3 ± 3.5; p < 0.05 / basal depression 7.4 ± 4.8; depression at 1 month 4.2 ± 3.6; depression at 3 months 3 ± 2.9; p < 0.05). The abstinence rate, which was 53.2%, was not affected by the basal level of anxiety and depression. CONCLUSIONS: the levels of anxiety and depression progressed favorably throughout the program, to attain good result

RESUMO

OBJETIVO: Las exacerbaciones de la enfermedad pulmonar obstructiva crónica (EPOC) inciden negativamente en la evo-lución y pronóstico de la misma, habiéndose demostrado que los exacerbadores frecuentes (Ex-F) presentan un deterioro mayor y más rápido de la función pulmonar, peor calidad de vida, mayor grado de inflamación y una tasa de mortalidad más elevada. Nuestro objetivo fue determinar si existían di-ferencias en parámetros clínicos y funcionales en función del número de exacerbaciones de los pacientes. MATERIAL Y MÉTODO: Estudio observacional, prospectivo, con selección consecutiva de pacientes EPOC. Se clasificó a los pacientes en dos grupos según el número de exacerbaciones en el año previo: no frecuente (Ex-NF) (<2 exacerbaciones-año) y frecuente (Ex-F) (≥2 exacerbaciones-año). Se analiza-ron datos epidemiológicos, clínicos (escalas de disnea, índi-ce de consumo tabáquico, cuestionarios de calidad de vida y ansiedad-depresión) y parámetros funcionales (espirometría, prueba de la marcha de 6 minutos (PM6M) y prueba de es-fuerzo cardiopulmonar (PECP) máxima y submáxima), así como los recursos sanitarios utilizados y la incidencia de neu-monía en cada uno de los grupos. RESULTADOS: Se incluyeron 108 pacientes, de los cuales 54 eran Ex-F. Este grupo presentó un mayor consumo tabáquico, mayor impacto en las escalas de medición de la disnea, peores resultados en los cuestionarios de calidad de vida y ansiedad-depresión. Este grupo también presentó un mayor deterioro funcional, medido mediante FEV1, y nivel de gravedad de las exacerbaciones (p < 0,05), salvo en sus ingresos en unidad de cuidados intensivos (UCI). Sin embargo no se encontraron di-ferencias en las pruebas de esfuerzo realizadas, ni una mayor incidencia de neumonías en este grupo. CONCLUSIONES: A pesar de encontrar diferencias estadística-mente significativas en distintos parámetros clínicos y fun-cionales asociadas al fenotipo exacerbador, la capacidad de esfuerzo parece independiente del número de exacerbaciones previas, al menos en este tipo de pacientes


OBJECTIVE: Exacerbations of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) impact negatively on its development and prognostics; frequent exacerbations (Ex-F) have proven to cause greater and faster deterioration of lung function, worse quality of life, greater degree of inflammation and a higher death rate. Our objective was to determine whether or not there were differences in clinical and functional parameters depending on the number of exacerbations in the patients. MATERIAL AND METHOD: An observational, prospective study, with consecutive selection of COPD patients classified into two groups according to the number of exacerbations during the previous year: not frequent (Ex-NF) (< 2 exacerbations-year) and frequent (Ex-F) (≥2 exacerbations -year). Epidemio-logical data was analyzed, as was clinical information (dyspnea scales, tobacco consumption index, quality of life question-naires and anxiety-depression) and functional parameters (spi-rometry, 6-minute walking test (6MWT) and maximum and sub-maximum cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET), in addition to the healthcare resources used and the incidence of pneumonia in each group. RESULTS: 108 patients were included in the study, of which 54 were Ex-F. This group presented higher tobacco consump-tion, higher impact on the dyspnea scales, worse results in the quality of life questionnaires and anxiety-depression. This group also presented greater functional deterioration mea-sured by FEV1, and in the seriousness of the exacerbations (p < 0.05); except for admission to intensive care unit (ICU). Nevertheless there were no differences in the exercise testing performed, nor was there a greater incidence of pneumonia in this group. CONCLUSIONS: Despite statistically significant differences for the various clinical and functional parameters associated with the exacerbating phenotype, exercise/stress capacity appears to be independent of the number of previous exacerbations, at least in this type of patient

RESUMO

Hemomediastinum caused by rupture of a bronchial artery aneurysm is a very infrequent pathology. Clinical presentation can be variable; it can resemble an aortic pathology and be diagnosed in emergency situations. Computerized tomography (CT) of the thorax is the initial test for diagnosis. We present the clinical case of a 70-year-old man with an initial clinical assessment of transfixive thoracic pain resembling an acute aortic pathology. TC was carried out with a diagnosis of suspected mediastinal neoplasia (Hounsfield Units/HU 38 - soft tissue), biopsy sampling was carried out by gastroscopy and broncoscopy with haemorrhagic pap smear, presenting light anemization on admission and remaining haemodynamically stable and asymptomatic. Facing a high clinical suspicion of arterial pathology, CT was repeated in which hemomediastinum was described in resolution, with subsequent confirmation of the existence of ruptured bronchial artery aneurysm through angiography and proceeding to therapeutic embolization.

RESUMO

El hemomediastino por rotura de aneurisma bronquial es una patología muy poco frecuente. La presentación clínica puede ser variable, pudiendo simular patología aórtica y ser diagnosticado en situaciones de emergencia. La tomografía computarizada (TC) de tórax es la prueba de imagen inicial para el diagnóstico. Se presenta el caso clínico de un varón de 70 años con clínica inicial de dolor torácico transfixivo que simulaba patología aórtica aguda. Se realiza TC con diagnóstico de sospecha de neoplasia mediastínica (Unidades Hounsfield/UH 38 - tejidos blandos) realizándose toma de biopsia por gastroscopia y broncoscopia con citología hemorrágica, presentando leve anemización al ingreso y permaneciendo hemodinámicamente estable y asintomático. Ante alta sospecha clínica de patología arterial se repite TC donde se describe hemomediastino en resolución confirmándose posteriormente la existencia de rotura de aneurisma bronquial mediante angiografía y procediendo a su embolización te (AU)

RESUMO

Bifidobacterium spp. typical of the human intestinal microbiota are believed to influence the balance of immune responses in the intestinal mucosa. The aim of the present study was to investigate the effect of different bifidobacterial species and their mixtures in in vitro experiments with peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) and Caco-2 cells. Bifidobacterium adolescentis, B. angulatum, B. breve, B. catenulatum, B. infantis, B. longum and two combinations of these bifidobacteria simulating the species composition found in faecal samples from breast-fed (BF) and formula-fed (FF) infants were used. The levels of several cytokines were measured by direct stimulation of PBMC and by stimulation of a Caco-2/PBMC co-culture with bifidobacteria. B. catenulatum and B. breve were the strongest enhancers of interferon-γ (IFN-γ) production by direct stimulation of PBMC. B. longum was the highest inducer of IL-10 and the lowest TNF-α stimulus. In the Caco-2/PBMC system, B. breve was the highest inducer of IL-8 production by Caco-2 cells, significantly different from B. infantis, B. adolescentis and the FF mixture (P < 0·05). IFN-γ produced by PBMC stimulated with the BF mixture (containing 22 % B. breve, compared with 7 % in the FF mixture) was significantly higher compared with B. adolescentis, B. infantis and B. longum. B. adolescentis also inhibited IFN-γ production compared with the FF mixture and B. longum. The proportion of different Bifidobacterium strains seems to be an important determinant of the cytokine balance in the simulated intestinal environment studied. B. breve and the combination of the Bifidobacterium species typically found in the microbiota of BF infants have shown the most significant effects.

RESUMO

Objetivo: Evaluar el patrón de pacientes a los que se realiza monitorización prolongada Video-EEG en un centro especializado en epilepsia y valorar la utilidad de dicha técnica en la epilepsia farmacorresistente. Métodos: Se realizó el estudio y análisis prospectivo de la monitorización de 100 pacientes consecutivos con epilepsia farmacorresistente correspondientes a un solo centro. Se analizaron los datos demográficos de la serie, el tiempo trascurrido hasta la primera crisis, las maniobras de provocación de crisis y el rendimiento de la prueba (utilidad del test, cambio de actitud, mejoría en el ajuste farmacológico y mejoría quirúrgica). Se realizó un subanálisis en diferentes grupos diagnósticos.Resultados: El estudio se realizó fundamentalmente en población joven (34,4 años) y la media de horas trascurridas hasta la primera crisis fue de 30, requiriendo en la mayoría de pacientes (90%) retirar la medicación antiepiléptica. Pese a ello, no se produjo ningún caso de status epiléptico. La utilidad del test fue elevada en todos los grupos permitiendo cambiar el manejo de los pacientes en un 65%, lo cual se tradujo en mejorías tanto a nivel farmacológico como quirúrgico.Conclusión: La monitorización prolongada Video-EEG es una técnica adecuada para el estudio de pacientes con una epilepsia farmacorresistente, siendo el mayor problema en nuestro medio su difícil accesibilidad (AU)


Objective: To evaluate the characteristics of patients on whom long-term Video-EEG monitoring is performed in a specialist centre and to assess its suitability to study refractory epilepsy patients. Methods: A prospective analysis and study of Video-EEG monitoring was performed in a series of 100 refractory epilepsy patients from a single centre. The analysis included demographic data, the time until the first seizure, the methods used to provoke seizures, and the outcome (usefulness, change in the management, pharmacological and surgical improvement). A subgroup analysis based on diagnosis was performed.Results: The study was performed mainly on young people (mean 34.4 years) and the first seizure appeared in a mean of 30hours, requiring most of the patients to withdraw the medication. Nevertheless, there were no cases of status epilepticus. The usefulness of the test was high in all the groups. The management was changed in 65% of the patients with pharmacological and surgical improvement. Conclusion: Long-term Video-EEG monitoring is a suitable test to study refractory epilepsy patients. The main problem in our country is accesibility (AU)

RESUMO

We present the case of an 86 year old woman who was sent for consultation at General Surgery due to asymptomatic tumouration on the back face of the left thigh whose size had increased during the 2 previous months. Physical exploration revealed tumouration that was painless, excrescent, indurated, mobile and well delimited, with a diameter of 5 cm, a reddish colour and a rough surface. Tumoural extirpation was carried out with broad margins, with a hystopathological result of primary cutaneous neuro-endocrynal carcinoma or Merkel cell carcinoma. Computerised tomography was carried out, observing tumoural adenopathies in the para-aortic spaces, iliac chains and left femorals, as well as edema in the lower left extremity. The patient was sent to the Oncology service for treatment, without presenting a satisfactory evolution and with a progressive deterioration of her general state, dying within the first year after diagnosis.

RESUMO

Endometriosis is a chronic, benign gynaecological disorder that is frequent in women of a child-bearing age. It is estimated that there is some degree of endometriosis in as many as 15% of pre-menopausal women, associated with a history of infertility, caesarean antecedents, dysmenorrhoea and abnormality in uterine bleeding. It is believed to be due to the rise of menstrual contents through the Fallopian tubes (retrograde menstruation). In the intestinal affectation, the colon is the segment most frequently affected, above all at the rectosigmoidal level. The clinical features are unspecific, with abdominal pain the most frequent and/or pelvic pain of a cholic type that coincides with, or is exacerbated by, menstruation. Differential diagnosis includes intestinal inflammatory disease, diverticulitis, ischemic colitis and neoplastic processes, with the definitive diagnosis being anatomopathological. With respect to treatment, this will depend on the clinical features and the age of the patient, as well as her wishes with regard to pregnancy.

RESUMO

OBJETIVO: Analizar el efecto sobre dos parámetros antropométricos de la aplicación de distintas modalidades de entrenamiento al ejercicio en un grupo de pacientes con enfermedad pulmonar obstructiva crónica (EPOC), categorizados según su fenotipo (con o sin predominio de enfisema). METODOLOGIA: 64 pacientes con EPOC estable (edad media de 64,1 ± 6,8 años) que presentan obstrucción moderada severa al flujo aéreo, realizaron un programa de entrenamiento al ejercicio, aleatoriamente distribuidos en tres grupos: resistencia (n=21; entrenamiento aeróbico en bicicleta al 70% de su VO2 máximo inicial), fuerza (n=22; cinco ejercicios de levantamiento de pesas al 70-85% del test 1 RM inicial, incluyendo grupos musculares de MMSS y MMII) y mixto (n=21; combinación de los anteriores).Se subdividieron en pacientes EPOC con predominio de enfisema(n=32) o sin enfisema (n=32) según criterios clínicos, funcionales y radiológicos. Inicialmente y tras 12 semanas de entrenamiento se midieron los cambios en el peso y en el índice de masa corporal (IMC) como parámetros antropométricos. RESULTADOS: Los pacientes EPOC sin enfisema cuyo entrenamiento incluía ejercicios de tipo aeróbico (grupos resistencia y mixto) experimentaron una disminución del IMC (-0,43 ± 1,45 y -0,82 ± 1,04; p<0,05) y del peso (-0,96 ± 4,15 y -2,44 ± 2,96 kg). Los EPOC tipo enfisema cuyo entrenamiento incluía ejercicios de fuerza (fuerza y mixto) presentaron un aumento del IMC (0,42 ± 0,50 y 0,35± 1,04; p<0,05) y del peso (0,91 ± 1,08 y 1,25 ± 2,83 kg; p<0,05). CONCLUSIONES: Distintas estrategias de entrenamiento alejercicio producen efectos diferentes sobre índices antropométricos en pacientes con EPOC, dependiendo del fenotipo que presenten (AU)


OBJECTIVE: To analyse the effect of the application of different modes of exercise training on two anthropometric parameters in a group of patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), categorised according to their phenotype (with or without predominance of emphysema). METHODOLOGY: Sixty-four patients with stable COPD (average age of 64.1 ± 6.8 years) that presented moderate-severe air flow obstruction, undertook an exercise training programme, randomly distributed in three groups: resistance (n=21; aerobicbicycle training to 70% of their initial maximum VO2), strength(n=22; five weight raising exercises to 70-85% of the initial 1-RMtest, including arm and leg muscle groups) and mixed (n=21; combination of the previous). They were subdivided into COPD patients with predominance of emphysema (n=32) or without emphysema (n=32) according to clinical, functional and radiological criteria. The changes in weight and body mass index (BMI) were measured as anthropometric parameters initially, and after12 weeks of training. RESULTS: COPD patients without emphysema whose training included aerobic type exercises (resistance and mixed groups) experienced a reduction of BMI (-0.43 ± 1.45 and -0.82 ± 1.04;p<0.05) and weight (-0.96 ± 4.15 and – 2.44 ± 2.96 kg). The COPD patients with emphysema whose training included strength exercises (strength and mixed) displayed an increase in BMI (0.42 ± 0.50and 0.35 ± 1.04; p<0.05) and weight (0.91 ± 1.08 and 1.25 ± 2.83 kg; p<0.05). CONCLUSIONS: Different exercise training strategies produce different effects on anthropometric indices in patients with COPD, depending on the phenotype they present (AU)

RESUMO

Presentamos el caso de una mujer de 86 años que fue remitida a consulta de Cirugía General por presentar tumoración asintomática en la cara posterior del muslo izquierdo cuyo tamaño había aumentado durante los 2 últimos meses. Se apreciaba en la exploración física una tumoración indolora, excrecente, indurada, móvil y bien delimitada, de 5 cm de diámetro, de coloración rojiza y superficie rugosa. Se realizó la extirpación tumoral con márgenes amplios, con resultado histopatológico de carcinoma neuroendocrino primario cutáneo o carcinoma de células de Merkel. Se realizó tomografía computarizada, observando adenopatías tumorales en los espacios para aórtico, cadenas ilíacas y femorales izquierdas, así como edema en la extremidad inferior izquierda. Se remitió a la paciente al servicio de Oncología para continuar tratamiento pertinente, sin presentar evolución satisfactoria y con progresivo deterioro del estado general, falleciendo dentro del primer año tras el diagnóstico (AU)

RESUMO

La endometriosis es un trastorno ginecológico crónico, benigno y frecuente entre las mujeres en edad fértil, estimándose que existe algún grado de endometriosis hasta en el 15% de las mujeres premenopáusicas, asociándose a historia de infertilidad, antecedente de cesárea, dismenorrea y anormalidad en el sangrado uterino. Se cree que es debida al ascenso por las trompas de Falopio de contenido menstrual (menstruación retrógrada). En la afectación intestinal, el colon es el segmento más frecuentemente afectado, sobre todo a nivel rectosigmodeo. La clínica de presentación es inespecífica, siendo lo más frecuente el dolor abdominal y/o pélvico de tipo cólico que coincide o se exacerba con la menstruación. El diagnóstico diferencial incluye la enfermedad inflamatoria intestinal, diverticulitis, colitis isquémica y procesos neoplásicos, siendo el diagnóstico definitivo anatomopatológico. En cuanto al tratamiento, éste dependerá de la clínica y de la edad de la paciente, así como de sus deseos de embarazo (AU)

RESUMO

Mesenteric panniculitis can be considered as an evolved state of a mesenteric disease, with a first phase of mesenteric lipodystrophy without inflammatory signs, followed by a second phase of panniculitis, ending in fibrosis, at which point it is denominated retractile mesentiritis, which principally affects males over the age of 50. Its aetiology is unknown, with a description made of different associated factors, and its clinical presentation is variable, depending on the stage of the disease. The image test indicated for its diagnosis is the TAC, while an histopathological study provides the definitive diagnosis. There are different medicines and therapeutic guidelines, although studies establishing the ideal treatment are lacking. We present the case of a patient diagnosed with mesenteric panniculitis who evolved favourably followed treatment with cyclophosphamide associated with corticoids.
