Análise de custo-efetividade de métodos preventivos para superfície oclusal de acordo com o risco de cárie: resultados de um ensaio clínico controlado

This study presents the results of a cost-effectiveness analysis in a controlled clinical trial on the effectiveness of a modified glass ionomer resin sealant ( Vitremer, 3M ESPE) and the application of fluoride varnish (Duraphat, Colgate) on occlusal surfaces of first permanent molars in children 6-8 years of age (N = 268), according to caries risk (high versus low). Children were examined semiannually by the same calibrated dentist for 24 months after allocation in six groups: high and low risk controls (oral health education every three months); high and low risk with varnish (oral health education every three months + varnish biannually); and high and low risk with sealant (oral health education every three months + a single application of sealant). Economic analysis showed that sealing permanent first molars of high-risk schoolchildren showed a C/E ratio of US$ 119.80 per saved occlusal surface and an incremental C/E ratio of US$ 108.36 per additional saved occlusal surface. The study concluded that sealing permanent first molars of high-risk schoolchildren was the most cost-effective intervention.

Análise da susceptibilidade de leveduras isoladas de insetos sociais aos antifúngicos

A frequência de micoses invasivas causadas por fungos oportunistas, incluindo leveduriformes, vem aumentando significativamente nas últimas décadas e atinge principalmente indivíduos imunocomprometidos. A tribo Attini possui cerca de 230 espécies de formigas e todas possuem o hábito de cultivar e se alimentar de fungos. Algumas espécies cultivam o fungo mutualista em nódulos poligonais sólidos com 0,25 a 0,50mm de diâmetro, aproximadamente. No interior desses nódulos, encontram-se células na forma de leveduras, que quando semeadas em meio de cultura se desenvolvem como fungo filamentoso. Este tipo de fungicultura está restrito a algumas espécies do gênero Cyphomyrmex. Neste trabalho, isolamos 30 leveduras dos nódulos de oito ninhos de Cyphomyrmex transversus da região de Ilhéus (BA), e analisamos a susceptibilidade aos seguintes antifúngicos: Anfotericina B (AMB), Fluconazol (FCZ), Voriconazol (VCZ) e Itraconazol (ITZ). A caracterização das estirpes foi feita através de métodos morfológicos e moleculares, incluindo-se o sequenciamento dos domínios D1/D2 do rDNA. A avaliação da atividade antifúngica foi realizada através do método de microdiluição, de acordo com a norma M27-A2 (CLSI, 2002). Candida parapsilosis ATCC 22019 e Candida krusei ATCC 6258 foram utilizadas como controle. Os resultados foram interpretados segundo os pontos de corte (breakpoints) aplicados ao gênero Candida. As estirpes foram identificadas como Trichosporon asahii (18), T. coremiiforme (4), Candida carpophila (syn. C. guilliermondii) (4), Galactomyces candidum (syn. Geotrichum candidum) (3) e Cryptococcus laurentii (1). Todas as espécies são conhecidas por possuírem representantes que já foram relatados como patógenos oportunistas. Elas foram sensíveis aos azóis FCZ, VCZ e ITZ, com exceção de G. candidus, cujas estirpes apresentaram sensibilidade dose-dependente a FCZ e ITZ... (Resumo completo, clicar acesso eletrônico abaixo)

Content were collected immediately after root canal instrumentation and after 7 days of biomechanical. For the samples was conducted to evaluate the antimicrobial activity and the results were subjected to statistical analysis of Kruskal-Wallis and Dunn's test with a significance of 5%. It was found that chlorhexidine gel and liquid as well as sodium hypochlorite were effective against the microorganisms tested

Efeito da suplementação de erva mate (Ilex paraguariensis) sobre a capacidade antioxidante total em atletas futebolistas em teste exaustivo em esteira

Introduction: Physical exercise are related to high oxygen consumption, leading to increase on reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation and subsequent oxidative stress. Concomitantly, physical training can improve the antioxidant defense systems, reducing the deleterious activity of ROS. The yerba mate (Ilex paraguariensis) has several bioactive compounds in its composition, providing important antioxidant activity in improving defense systems and reducing the damage caused by ROS. Few studies related to yerba mate with antioxidant effects during exercise. Objective: Evaluate whether the consumption-based drink yerba mate (Ilex paraguariensis) is able to increase the total antioxidant performance (TAP) after an exhaustive test on a treadmill. Methods: The sample counted with 15 female soccers players from Botucatu-SP female soccer team with a mean age of 22.1 ± 4.2 years. For laboratory tests , it was evaluated: triglycerides (TG), total cholesterol (TC) and fractions, glucose and gamma-GT were dosed by dry chemistry (Vitros® System, Johnson & Johnson). LDL-cholesterol was obtained by Friedwald formula. Total antioxidant performance (TAP) was obtained by the method of fluorescence assay for the measurement of plasma. Weight, height and body mass index (IMC) were measured, percentage of body fat was obtained by bioeletrical impedance analysis (Biodinâmics, modelo 450, USA). Arterial blood pressure was checked by auscultatory method and cardiorespiratory fitness was determined by ergoespirometric test (Ramp Protocol). Maltodextrin was supplemented (30 g in 400 ml) 30 minutes after M0 with placebo (400 ml) or mate (5 g in 400 ml of water). Statistical analysis: ANOVA for repeated measures followed by Tukey's test set, p<0.05.

It was concluded that 2% gel chlorhexidine as intracanal medication for 7 days was effective on microorganisms

Caracterização fitoquímica e ensaios biológicos de Coleus blumei Benth

Coleus blumei Benth (Lamiaceae), popularly known in Brazil as heart-hurt or coleus-of-Java is an ornamental plant widely used due to the color of its leaves. Several species of the genus Coleus present compounds with antioxidant, antimicrobial and allopathic activities due to the presence of chemicals such coleonol, forskolin and rosmarinic acid. Therefore, this study aimed to carry out phytochemical study and biological tests to evaluate the antibacterial, antioxidant and allopathic activities of the 70% ethanol extract and its fractions ethyl acetate, dichloromethane and end aqueous fraction leaf of Coleus blumei Benth. The plant extract was prepared by turbolisis from the powder of dried leaves, as a solvent for extraction using 70% ethanol. The ethanol extract was fractionated with solvents dichloromethane and ethyl acetate. The phytochemical study identified the presence of saponins, free anthraquinones, flavonoids and anthocyanidins. In evaluating the antibacterial dichloromethane fraction showed activity against all microorganisms tested both in agar diffusion test and microdilution test. The 70% ethanol extract showed activity against the micro-organisms S. aureus and S. epidermidis in agar diffusion test and against all microorganisms tested in microdilution test.
