RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the different modalities of treatment of the strabismus related to infantile glaucoma, its complications, and results. METHODS: The clinical history of 7 patients with infantile glaucoma which required strabismus surgical treatment were analyzed. Age at onset of glaucoma, type of glaucoma, glaucoma surgeries, type of strabismus, strabismus surgical treatment and postoperative results were studied. RESULTS: Four patients required strabismus surgery, two were treated with botulinum toxin and one required both. Primary congenital glaucoma was the most common (71,42%), 14,28% had an anterior segment dysgenesis and 14,28% had secondary glaucoma. Regarding strabismus, 4 patients had exotropia and 3 had esotropia. The main difficulty involved the management of the conjunctiva and the filtering blebs. CONCLUSION: Strabismus is a frequent complication in infantile glaucoma. The management of these patients should be individualized. In our case series, treatment of strabismus improved eye alignment. Surgery should be the mainstay of treatment while preserving the conjunctiva and interfere the less with glaucoma surgeries. Botulinum toxin is a reasonable option when conservative treatment is needed.

RESUMO

Objetivo Evaluar las diferentes estrategias de tratamiento del estrabismo, sus complicaciones y resultados quirúrgicos en pacientes con glaucoma de la infancia. Métodos Se analizaron las historias clínicas de 7 pacientes con glaucoma de la infancia que requirieron tratamiento quirúrgico de estrabismo. Se analizaron las variables edad en el momento de la cirugía de estrabismo, tipo de glaucoma, cirugías de glaucoma, tipo de estrabismo, su tratamiento y resultados posquirúrgicos. Resultados De los 7 pacientes incluidos en nuestro estudio, 4 fueron sometidos a cirugía de estrabismo, 2 recibieron tratamiento con toxina botulínica y uno requirió ambas técnicas. Un 71,42% de los pacientes tenía glaucoma congénito primario, un 14,28% una disgenesia de segmento anterior y un 14,28% glaucoma secundario. Fueron intervenidas 4 exotropías y 3 endotropías. La principal dificultad fue el manejo de la conjuntiva y las ampollas filtrantes. Conclusiones El estrabismo constituye una complicación frecuente asociada al glaucoma de la infancia. La estrategia de tratamiento del estrabismo en estos pacientes debe ser individualizada. En nuestra serie, el tratamiento del estrabismo mejoró el alineamiento ocular. La cirugía debe considerarse de elección, teniendo en cuenta la importancia de proteger la conjuntiva y no interferir en las cirugías de glaucoma. La toxina botulínica es una opción útil en niños cuando se requieren tratamientos conservadores (AU)

RESUMO

PURPOSE: To evaluate intraoserver and inteobserver repeatability of the "exaggerated forced duction test" or "oblique traction test" and the "excyclo and incyclo passive rotation test" or "cyclorotation traction test". METHODS: 44 eyes of 22 patients were evaluated under deep general anesthesia. Passive duction was tested on supraduction and infraduction by the "exaggerated duction test". The limitation on movement was graduated from 0 to - 4. Passive cyclorotation test was evaluated with retropulsion of the globe until the first resistance is noted. We used the Mendez ring and blue dots marked on the limbus to measure the amount of cyclorotation. The results obtained of excyclo and incyclorotation were recorded. All measurements were made in duplicate for each of the two observers. RESULTS: The intraclass correlation of the "oblique traction test" coefficient between the two observers was for the IO was 0,738 (95% confidence interval, 0,62-0,83) and 0,910 for the superior oblique (SO) (95% confidence interval, 0,85-0,94). The "cyclorotation traction test" intraclass correlation coefficient of the between the two observers was 0,827 (95% confidence interval, 0,74-0,89) for exclycloduction and 0,792 (95% confidence interval, 0,67-0,85) for inclycloduction. The percentage of patients within 5° of rotation interobserver was 84,1% for excyclorotation and 81,8% for inclyclorotation. Both tests had better correlation on the intraobserver than interobserver evaluation. CONCLUSIONS: Evaluation of the "oblique traction test" and "cyclorotation traction test" had moderate to good correlation between the two observers and good to excellent on the intraobserver evaluation.

RESUMO

INTRODUCTION: Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a neurodegenerative disease that causes gait abnormalities and a deficit in balance control in the vast majority of people affected by it. Virtual reality has been proposed as a complementary approach to conventional physiotherapeutic treatment as a way of improving these variables. AIM: To assess the real efficacy of this approach compared to other neurorehabilitation therapies, or no intervention, in MS. PATIENTS AND METHODS: A systematic review of randomized controlled trials was conducted. Studies of the last five years that compare virtual reality with conventional treatment or no intervention, on balance and/or gait, in adults with MS, were included. PEDro scale was used to assess methodological quality and the Oxford scale to determine the level of evidence and grades of recommendations. RESULTS: Eight studies met the eligibility criteria. For balance, the efficacy of virtual reality is, at least, comparable as conventional training. For gait, virtual reality seems not to be superior in improving the speed, compared with the other types of interventions assessed. Methodological quality of studies was low-moderate. CONCLUSIONS: Virtual reality is as effective as conventional training for improving balance in people with MS. No data suggests that virtual reality is superior to other interventions in improving gait speed. For other gait parameters, virtual reality's efficacy remains unknown.


TITLE: Eficacia de la realidad virtual sobre el equilibrio y la marcha en esclerosis multiple. Revision sistematica de ensayos controlados aleatorizados.Introduccion. La esclerosis multiple (EM) es una enfermedad neurodegenerativa que produce alteraciones en el equilibrio y la marcha en la mayoria de los pacientes. La realidad virtual se ha propuesto como un abordaje complementario al tratamiento rehabilitador convencional como medio para mejorar dichas alteraciones. Objetivo. Evaluar la eficacia del abordaje mediante realidad virtual, en comparacion con otras intervenciones de neurorrehabilitacion o la no intervencion, en la EM. Pacientes y metodos. Se realiza una revision sistematica de ensayos controlados aleatorizados. Se incluyeron estudios de los ultimos cinco años que comparasen la intervencion de realidad virtual frente al tratamiento convencional o la no intervencion sobre el equilibrio y la marcha en personas adultas con EM. Se utilizo la escala PEDro para evaluar la calidad metodologica de los estudios incluidos y la escala de Oxford para evaluar el nivel de evidencia y el grado de recomendacion. Resultados. Ocho estudios cumplieron los criterios de elegibilidad. Para el equilibrio, la eficacia de la realidad virtual es, al menos, comparable a la del entrenamiento convencional. Para la marcha, la realidad virtual parece no ser superior en el parametro velocidad, en comparacion con el resto de intervenciones evaluadas. La calidad metodologica de los estudios fue moderada-baja. Conclusiones. La realidad virtual es igual de eficaz que el entrenamiento rehabilitador convencional para mejorar el equilibrio en personas con EM. No se han hallado datos que sugieran que la realidad virtual sea superior a otras intervenciones en la mejora de la velocidad de la marcha, y su eficacia sobre otros parametros de la marcha es aun incierta.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Our main objective was to assess the clinical outcomes obtained in a single orthotopic liver transplant (OLT) hospital with donors ≥80 years of age compared to a control group of patients subjected to OLT during the same period of time with donors who were under 65 years of age. METHODS: A prospective analysis was carried out on all the OLTs performed using liver grafts from donors in a state of brain death and with an age of ≥80 years (study group) between April 2007 and January 2015. The results of the study group (n = 36) were compared with those of a control group of patients less than 65 years of age receiving transplants with grafts. RESULTS: A total of 51 potential donors ≥80 years were assessed, with a total of 36 liver transplants being carried out and their results were compared with a control group of 283 patients receiving transplants. The median follow-up time of the patients in the series was 36 months (range: 24-120 months). Graft survival at 1, 2, and 3 years was 77%, 72%, and 62%, respectively, among the patients in the study group and 79%, 73%, and 65% among the patients in the control group, and there were no statistically significant differences. Patient survival at 1, 2, and 3 years was 86%, 82%, and 75%, respectively, among the patients in the study group and 82%, 76%, and 72% among the patients in the control group, also without there being any statistically significant differences. CONCLUSIONS: There is no age limit for liver transplant donors. The use of octogenarian donors makes it possible to increase the pool of donors while providing enough safety for the recipient.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: The outcome of orthotopic liver transplantation (OLT) for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is excellent if it is performed within the Milan criteria (ie, single tumor less than 5 cm or 3 tumors less than 3 cm each one and no macrovascular invasion). However, after a few studies, it has become possible to have a similar survival expanding those criteria. The aim of this study is to evaluate the survival of patients with advanced HCC who, after downstaging, did not met the Milan criteria although they were within the "up to seven" benchmark, and were transplanted at our center in the last 5 years. PATIENTS AND METHODS: This is a retrospective study of patients who underwent OLT for HCC in the last 5 years in our center exceeding Milan criteria despite remaining within the "up to seven" benchmark. An observational study of associated factors with overall survival based on patient characteristics after OLT was performed. For the statistical study, the statistical program SPSS v. 17.0 (Chicago, Illinois, United States) was used. RESULTS: We studied 95 patients who had been transplanted for HCC in this period, 11 of whom met the study requirements. There were 10 (91%) males and 1 female. The mean age of the patients was 54.73 ± 8.75 years, with an average waiting list time of 279 days. Nine patients had a Child A status, with a mean Model for End-stage Liver Disease score of 9.64 (range, 6 to 16). The most frequent etiology of cirrhosis was hepatitis C virus infection in 6 patients (50%) followed by hepatitis B virus infection and ethanolic and cryptogenic cirrhosis. Ten patients (91%) had at least one pretransplantation transarterial chemoembolization. The survival of patients after 1 year was 75%, whereas after 4 years that rate decreases to 25%. At this time, we do not have any patients with a 5-year survival rate. The longest survival rate is 55 months. CONCLUSIONS: Although the expanded indication of transplantation in HCC raises controversies, especially after downstaging, it is possible to provide acceptable survival rates for patients within the expanded criteria of "up to seven" after locoregional therapies. The performance of a liver transplant in the patient profile shown in this article should also be evaluated from the perspective of the relative lack of organs for transplantation.

RESUMO

Patients who underwent orthotopic liver transplantation (OLT) frequently develop chronic kidney disease, with those who present postoperative acute kidney failure and require renal replacement therapy (RRT) at higher risk. The objective of the study was to assess the kidney function and long-term survival of patients who underwent OLT and required RRT during or in the immediate postoperative period. Medical records of OLT and postoperative RRT patients with over 6-month survival were reviewed between January 1, 2005, and December 31, 2015. A variance analysis was carried out for repeated measurements to compare the estimate glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) baseline with the different periods (statistical significance level P < .05). Kaplan-Meier estimator was used to estimate the survival rate. Of 539 patients, 20 (3.7%) met the selection criteria. The basal eGFR at 6 months and 1, 3, 5, and 7 years was 93.41 ± 25, 78.28 ± 33, 73.06 ± 29, 65.96 ± 19, 79.81 ± 28, and 59.06 ± 24 mL/min/1.73 m2, respectively. The comparison of the eGFR baseline within the different periods was statistically significant at 1 year and at 3 years. Four patients died, 3 of them due to sepsis and 1 due to recurrence of hepatitis C virus infection. The average survival was 28 months. The probability of surviving at 1 year was 100%, at 3 years was 84.21% (95% confidence interval: 58.65-94.62), and at 5 and 10 years was 78.6% (95% confidence interval: 52.49-91.39). In conclusion, we have found a progressive worsening of the kidney function in the long term in patients who required postoperative dialysis. However, actuarial survival of these patients was very successful.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: In recent years, several studies have shown that the age of the donor may be related to an increase in the occurrence of biliary complications (BCs), which remain the main cause of morbidity after liver transplantation. This study analyzed the type and management of these BCs, the impact of BCs on graft and patient survival rates, and the influence of some characteristics of donors and recipients on BC appearance in patients transplanted with donors 75 years of age or older. PATIENTS AND METHODS: From 2003 to 2016, 100 liver transplantations with donors 75 years of age or older (15.6%) were performed in our hospital. The data were compared with a control group of 400 patients with younger donors (case-control 1:4 per chronology). RESULTS: The BC rate in the group of patients transplanted with organs from elderly donors was 18%, compared to 21.5% in the control group. Specifically, in the immediate post-transplantation period, 14% of the elderly donor group and 13.8% of the control group presented some BCs, with no statistically significant differences in the incidence, type, and treatment of BCs between the two groups. The occurrence of BCs was not a factor associated with graft and patient survival rates. In the global population, donor death by cerebral vascular accident and male donors have influenced the occurrence of BCs. CONCLUSIONS: The advanced age of the donor has not influenced BC rates after transplantation.

RESUMO

INTRODUCTION: The objectives of this study are the determination of the number of circulating tumor cells (CTCs), by means of the IsoFlux enrichment system (Fluxion Biosciences Inc, San Francisco, California, United States) in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in compliance with the Milan criteria and on the waiting list for hepatic transplantation, as well as the study of its relation with the of α-fetoprotein levels (AFP) and positron-emission tomography-computed tomography (PET-CT) findings. PATIENTS AND METHODS: An oncologycal evaluation with PET-CT, CTCs, and AFP was conducted in 24 consecutive patients with HCC eligible for orthotopic liver transplantation according to the Milan criteria. The diagnosis of HCC was made according to clinical, biological, and radiological findings. RESULTS: We detected CTCs in peripheral blood in 21 of 24 patients (87.5%) before liver transplantation, with a mean number CTCs of 156 ± 370 (range, 2 to 1768) with statistically significant association between number of CTCs detected in peripheral blood and the time within the waiting list (P < .05), but not betwen AFP levels and standard uptake value and time to orthotopic liver transplantation (P > .05). CONCLUSIONS: PET-TC, CTCs, and AFP levels could be an essential key for the correct management of the patients with HCC on the waiting list for liver transplantation.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: To identify the predictive value of LH-FSH ratio in the Polycystic Ovary Syndrome diagnosis and to evaluate its role according PCOS phenotypes. MATERIAL AND METHOD: A descriptive, comparative, observational, prospective study of PCOS patients and its controls. All participants received a questionnaire and underwent a physical and transvaginal ultrasound examination. Blood samples were also collected for analysis of metabolic markers and hormones. PCOS was diagnosed according to Rotterdam criteria. RESULTS: A total of 267 women were included into the study. PCOS was diagnosed in 162 patients. There was statistical difference in: HOMA, 1.43 ± 1.06, 2.09 ± 1.96; Total Testosterone, 0.31 ± 0.14, 0.41 ± 0.19; and free Androgen index, 1.17 ± 1.30, 1.69 ± 1.18; for control and PCOS group, respectively. FSH, 6.55 ± 2.43 in controls and 5.30 ± 1.66 in PCOS patients (p = 0.001); LH, 4.34 ± 2.12 controls, 6.36 ± 4.61 PCOS patients (p = 0.001). LH-FSH ratio was 0.71 ± 0.39 for control group and 1.25 ± 0.85 in PCOS group, p = 0.001. A correlation was observed between LH-FSH ratio and total antral follicle count (p < 0.001) and with insulin resistance (p = 0.022). CONCLUSION: LH-FSH ratio, although it is a valuable test, it is not diagnostic of PCOS. A correlation was found with LH-FSH ratio and insulin resistance but we must not forget about its association with hyperandrogenism.

RESUMO

Las osteólisis son enfermedades raras que se caracterizan por la destrucción y reabsorción ósea. De mecanismo patogénico desconocido, causan alteraciones anatómicas y dejan secuelas funcionales variables que dependen de la localización e intensidad de las lesiones. Presentamos un varón con daño neurológico previo, afecto de una osteólisis multicéntrica carpotarsal (también conocida como osteólisis multicéntrica idiopática), sin nefropatía y con patrón de herencia autosómico dominante. Aunque en principio se consideró la posibilidad de artritis idiopática juvenil, los antecedentes familiares y la ausencia de datos analíticos de inflamación llevaron a la sospecha diagnóstica de esta infrecuente forma de osteólisis, que fue confirmada con la evolución del paciente. Actualmente el niño presenta afectación carpiana bilateral y tarsiana unilateral, sin gran repercusión clínica considerando su intensa afección neurológica. El padre del niño, también afecto de osteólisis multicéntrica carpotarsal y carente de huesos carpianos, conserva buenas capacidades funcionales que le permiten una normal actividad laboral como conductor. Resulta interesante conocer esta rara enfermedad con varios objetivos: evitar diagnósticos inadecuados del tipo artritis idiopática juvenil, establecer con la familia planes de manejo y, finalmente, brindar asesoría genética a las familias afectadas (AU)


Osteolysis are rare diseases characterized by destruction and subsequent bone resorption. Although osteolysis have an unknown pathogenetic basis, they result in anatomic and functional disabilities related to the place and severity of the affected bones. A boy with previous neurologic damage is presented, affected by a multicentric carpotarsal osteolysis (also named idiopathic multicentric osteolysis) without nephropathy and with dominant transmission. Although at first the boy was believed to be affected by idiopathic chronic arthritis, the family history and the absence of inflammation biological markers aroused suspicions about osteolysis. The ulterior studies and the patient evolution confirmed this diagnosis. Nowadays, the boy is affected by carpal bilateral and tarsal unilateral bone lesions of little clinical significance considering his severe neurologic damage. His father, despite being affected by idiopathic multicentric osteolysis which caused the absence of carpal bones, shows excellent functional abilities working as a driver. This rare disease must be well-known in order to avoid wrong diagnoses develop adequate control strategies and offer genetic counseling to the affected families (AU)

RESUMO

Patients treated with long-term spinal infusion of high doses of morphine develop a granuloma at the location of the catheter tip. Diagnosis is based on a steady increase in intrathecal morphine dosage after a relatively prolonged period of stability, on the gradual development of neurologic signs and symptoms suggesting radicular or spinal cord compression, and on magnetic resonance images. We describe a man with central neuropathic pain after removal of a tumor. The presence of all 3 of the aforementioned diagnostic criteria led to suspicion of a spinal granuloma.

RESUMO

Four known lactones were isolated from Tithonia diversifolia: furanoheliangolides 1,3-dihydroxy-3,10-epoxy-8-(-2-methylpropanoyloxy)-germacra-11(13)-ene-6,12-olide (1), 1,3-dihydroxy-3,10-epoxy-8-(2-methylpropanoyloxy)-germacra-4,11(13)-diene-6,12-olide (2), 1,3-dimethoxy-3,10-epoxy-8-(2-methylpropanoyloxy)-germacra-4,11(13)-diene-6,12-olide (3) and, observed in natural source for the first time, furanoheliangolide 1-hydroxy-3-methoxy-3,10-epoxy-8-(2-methylpropanoyloxy)-germacra-4,11(13)-diene-6,12-olide (4). The activity of sesquiterpene lactones on superoxide anion (O(2)(o)(-)) generation from PMA-activated neutrophils was evaluated. Compound 1 did not show a full dose dependent behavior. The IC(100) was 8+/-1, 12+/-1, and 17+/-3 microM for 2 to 4, respectively.

RESUMO

La resistencia a antibióticos es un problema de salud pública creciente a nivel mundial. Se han identificado altos niveles de multirresistencia principalmente en cepas patógenas de Escherichia coli. Las investigaciones 1 recientes han sido dirigidas hacia la determinación ck fi resistencia en cepas no patógenas de E. coli. En e: fi presente estudio se determina la resistencia antibioticos en cepas de E coh de la flora gastromtestma normal provementes de niños en la ciudad de La Paz Las pruebas de susceptibilidad mostraron resistenci a cefradina (69 porciento) gentamicma (58 porciento) tetraclchna (54 porciento) y estreptomicina (54 porciento) y menores frecuencias a ampicihna (37 porciento) cotnmoxazol (37 porciento) amoxicilina (2 porciento) y cloramfenicol (13 porciento) Se encontro variabilidad d respuesta a antibioticos (63 porciento) entre clones provemente de una misma cepa No se establecieron perfiles d resistencia caractensticos en la poblacion debido a 1 heterogeneidad de marcadores de resistencia S encontró mayor resistencia a antibióticos en zona penurbanas (54 porciento) con una diferencia sigmficativa e relacion a zonas residenciales (32 porciento) En conclusioi las altas frecuencias de resistencia a antibioticc ff1 encontrada en cepas bacterianas de flora gastrointestin normal demuestra que Escherichia coh se constituye c reservono y potencial transportador y disemmador resistencia a antibioticos
