The association of Helicobacter pylori with different gastric diseases has been continuously discussed in the literature, whereas the last 20 years a large body of publications was intended to characterize the ecological niches and habitats of this pathogen being the mouth a possible habitat for that rod. The present study aimed to discuss the occurrence of this organism as part of the supplemental or transient microbiota of the mouth. Thus, an extensive review of literature covering the period 1990-2014 was carried out with different databases, yielding 5024 articles discussing transmission and occurrence of H. pylori, in English or Portuguese. Articles were selected according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria and data were tabulated and analyzed. Despite the significant heterogeneity of the literature, it was found this microaerophilic has a worldwide distribution, even in the mouth, which behaves as a reservoir for gastric reinfection. The role of oral hygiene and periodontal disease in the distribution of this microorganism remains unclear, but most studies support the hypothesis that oral biofilms and inflammation of periodontium may facilitate the installation of this pathogen in the mouth. Studies suggest that this microorganism could collaborate as a predisposing factor for oral cancer.

Periodontal disease has been increasingly associated as a supporting factor, and even a precursor to some systemic diseases. Just aim of this paper was to analyze by reviewing the literature, the possible mechanisms involved in the etiopathogenesis of periodontal disease that are common to the current systemic diseases such as obesity, atherosclerosis, diabetes and rheumatoid arthritis. The articles were analyzed with in the publication period of the years 2006 to 2011 and were surveyed in the databases PubMed, LILACS and SciELO. Of a total of 907 articles found by searching the indices and their associations, were selected by inclusion criteria 93 articles. For the preparation of this literature review, only 24 articles were selected because they are based on inflammatory mechanisms, metabolic and infectious, where the considerations for the strongest associations in the literature. This literature review reinforces the association of periodontal disease with systemic diseases analyzed due to presence of inflammatory and immunological mechanisms and similar synergism betwen the two diseases, but some hypotheses still need further clarification. The professional should stick to recent discoveries associations to promote periodontal treatment in preventing the development of systemic diseases, as well as in maintaining the systemic health of patients already suffering from chronic systemic diseases.

The diameters and areas of portal vein, caudal vena cava and abdominal aorta are useful measurements in dogs. These values can be easily measured by ultrasonographic exam, and variations of normality can be an important indicator of hepatic or extra-hepatic alterations. This study aimed to measure the diameter and areas of portal vein, caudal vena cava and abdominal aorta inhealthy dogs, with normal corporal score, divided in groups according to the body weight, and assess whether the data are influenced by animal weight. Thirty dogs were examined and divided into three groups (Group A: ≤ 10 kg Group B: from 10.1 to 20.0 kg; Group C: ≥ 20.1 kg). To measure thediameters and areas of portal vein, caudal vena cava and abdominal aorta, the animal was kept in left lateral decubitus position and the transducer was placed on the right lateral abdominal wall, at approximately the 10th or 11th intercostal space, in the porta hepatis region. The diameters and areas of the portal vein, caudal vena cava and abdominal aorta were significantly lower for dogs in Group A with respect to other groups and the dogs from Groups B and C had similar results with each other. The diameters and areas of the portal vein, caudal vena cava and abdominal aorta may vary with the animal size, and reference values must be specific for small, medium and large dogs. Key words: abdominal vessels; area; diameter; measurement; ultrasonographic exam

A transmissão de Doenças Sexualmente Transmissíveis (DSTs) tem aumentado significativamente nos últimos anos entre os adolescentes, como apresentam os dados do Boletim Epidemiológico de AIDS publicado pelo Ministério da Saúde, juntamente com o aumento do número de adolescentes grávidas. Dessa forma, o projeto de extensão PET - Saúde objetiva transmitir um conhecimento prevencionista aos jovens vulneráveis a essa situação, trabalhando com estudantes do ciclo II do ensino fundamental dos colégios municipais de Nova Europa. Os alunos que participaram da atividade responderam voluntariamente um questionário antes e após a atividade, que avaliava qualitativamente o conhecimento que possuíam acerca do tema DSTs e gravidez na adolescência. Através da análise desses questionários, foi possível perceber que os jovens possuíam conhecimento sobre o uso de preservativo para a prevenção de DSTs e gravidez (86,9% e 82,8%), mas que o mesmo não se aplicava quanto ao conhecimento de sintomas de DSTs (66,8%), que foi aprimorado após a atividade (80%). Além disso, as meninas apresentaram conhecimento acerca de outros métodos contraceptivos diferentes do preservativo e importância da vacina contra o HPV, provavelmente pelo fato dos meninos lidarem com a vida sexual de uma forma diferente. Apesar de conhecimento prévio sobre o assunto, ações educativas contínuas podem aumentar o conhecimento dos jovens sobre DSTs e gravidez.
