Análise histomorfométrica do reparo ósseo em tíbias de ratos castrados submetidos ao efeito do alendronato sódico

This study used histomorphometric analysis to investigate the effect of sodium alendronate, used for the treatment of osteoporosis, on the repair of surgically-induced bone defects in the tibia of castrated rats. Methods: The castrated animals were given subcutaneous injections of sodium alendronate (0.7mg/Kg) diluted in saline once a week; the control animals were given the same dose of saline. At 16, 30 and 44 days after the first injection of sodium alendronate, the animals were sacrificed and the right tibias were removed and processed for histomorphometric analysis. The volumetric bone mineral density was estimated by a reticular grid (25 points) attached to a light microscope. The number of points on the bone tissue was counted in the histological sections, totaling 100 points/animal. Results: The results revealed that sodium alendronate stimulated bone formation in castrated rats in all occasions, mainly at 16 and 30 days. Conclusion: Sodium alendronate affects mineral homeostasis, promoting bone repair.

Análise histomorfométrica da influência do Alendronato sódico no processo de reparo ósseo em tíbia de ratas submetidas a ovariectomia

The sodium alendronate (AS), considered as inhibitor in the osteoclasts- mediated bone resorption, promotes final effect of inhibition of resorption and increases bone mass. The objective of this research was to assess, by histomorphometry, the effect of sodium alendronate in repair bone of ovariectomized rats, in which there was performed a bone defect in the right tibia. The treated rats received a subcutaneous injection of sodic alendronate once a week, at 0.7 mg / kg, diluted with saline solution; the controls received the same volume of saline solution. In the periods of 16, 30 and 44 days after the first dose of AS, the animals were sacrificed, the right tibia was removed and processed for histomorphometric analysis. Four non-serial fields were used for the density volume quantification utilizing an integrative eyepiece with 25 points, totalizing 100 points per animal. Based on the results, the present study concludes that the ovariectomy induced osteoporosis and that the AS stimulated the bone formation. In addition, the ovariectomy decreased the estrogen levels. However, this procedure did not significantly influence the action of sodic alendronate.

Análise comparativa da rugosidade superficial de resinas compostas de alta densidade

The success achieved by the use of composite resins in anterior teeth precipitately leads their use in posterior teeth. However, the indiscriminate application of these materials in cavities with several diverse sizes rapidly pointed out their lack of resistance to oclusal and proximal wear. OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the surface roughness of composite resin in relation to finishing and polishing technique. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Eight experimental groups (n = 15) were divided according to finishing and polishing technique: G1 – Z250TM composite resin without surface finishing and polishing; G2 – Z250TM composite resin plus surface finishing and polishing; G3 – P60TM composite resin without surface finishing and polishing; G4 – P60TM composite resin plus surface finishing and polishing; G5 – Prodigy CondensableTM composite resin without surface finishing and polishing; G6 – Prodigy CondensableTM composite resin plus surface finishing and polishing; G7 – SurefillTM composite resin without surface finishing and polishing; G8 – SurefillTM composite resin plus surface finishing and polishing. Three packable and one microhybrid (control group) composite resin was used. The surface roughness was measured using a profilometer at three points in each sample. The results were evaluated by ANOVA and Tukey test (p < 0.05). RESULTS: Prodigy CondensableTM composite resin showed the lowest surface roughness, while SurefillTM showed the highest surface roughness. Comparing the resins used, only between P60TM and SurefillTM there were no statistically significant differences (p > 0,05). CONCLUSION: Surface roughness was lower in all types of resin composites surfaces in contact with Mylar matrix strip than in areas submitted to finishing and polishing procedure.

Avaliação de métodos de fixação de fraturas distais de rádio e ulna em cães de pequeno porte: revisão sistemática

As fraturas de rádio e ulna em animais de companhia são ocorrências ortopédicas de grande incidência em Medicina Veterinária. Cães de pequeno porte parecem ter uma maior incidência de fraturas em terço distal do rádio e ulna. A consolidação de ossos fraturados baseia-se na redução anatômica ou na aproximação dos maiores fragmentos. Para haver uma correta cicatrização óssea, os implantes ortopédicos devem anular todas as forças atuantes no foco de fratura. O tratamento dessas fraturas é descrito como difícil, em porte do tipo toy e miniatura. A ocorrência da não consolidação óssea é alta chegando a 60% dos casos estudados. Alguns fatores identificados afetam a osteossíntese em cães de raças de pequeno porte, pois são inerentes à instabilidade biomecânica, como, o mínimo contato da superfície do osso após a redução, devido ao pequeno diâmetro existente, diminuição da cobertura de tecido mole, formação constante de cartilagem no foco da fratura, e diminuição da densidade vascular na junção diáfise-metafisária distal em comparação com cães de raças de grande porte. O objetivo da presente revisão sistemática foi avaliar o melhor método de tratamento para fraturas distais de rádio e/ou ulna em cães de raças de pequeno porte. Como metodologia foram utilizados 14 artigos científicos, sendo 11 internacionais e quatro nacionais. A aplicação de placas, nesse estudo sistemático, foi considerado o método mais eficaz para fixação de fraturas distais de rádio e ulna em cães de pequeno porte

Densidade de estocagem e restrição alimentar em juvenis de piapara

The effects of stocking density and food restriction in juvenile piapara (Leporinus elongatus) were studied by two experiments. In the first, 88 piaparas juveniles were stocked in three densities (0.13, 0.20 and 0.40 fish L-1) for 70 days. Were evaluated: weight gain, average consumption, specific growth rate and feed conversion. The experiment was conducted in completely randomized design with three treatments (0.13, 0.20 and 0.40 fish L-1) and four replicates. In the second experiment, 84 fish were divided into three treatments (RBD, with 4 replicates): control group (daily food); FDS group (animals fed on weekends) and Res 21 group (animals subjected to food restriction for 21 days). Highest stocking density resulted highest biomass produced. Fish subjected to food restriction for 21 days and animals fed on weekends group, displayed full compensatory growth.

Avaliação da perda óssea alveolar em pacientes encaminhados à especialista em periodontia: estudo radiográfico

The aim of this study was to evaluate the mean of alveolar bone loss (%) in radiographies of patients referred to specialist for periodontal treatment. Full mouth series of periapical radiographies (paralelism technique) were used. A total of 9808 proximal surfaces in 4804 teeth of 213 patients (90 males and 123 females), mean age, 44.3 years, were assessed. The alveolar bone loss was measured in relation to root lenght expressed as an average similar to Schei 's technique (1959) without the use of ruler. The references used were the distances cement-enamel juntion (CEJ) - alveolar crest (AC) and CEJ- dental apex taken with a digimatic caliper. The results showed that the mean values of alveolar bone loss (%ABL) was 22.39%. Men showed higher mean values of %ABL than women; the %ABL increased with the age, but the difference among age groups was no statistical significant (p>0.05); the mean values of %ABL of distal surfaces was higher than mesial surfaces (p<0.01), ríght quadrants exhibited higher %ABL values than left quadrants (p<0.01); maxillary sites showed mean values of %ABL higher than mandibular sites; the highest mean values of %ABL was found in molar group, followed by incisor groups, and premolar group; the canine group exhibited lower mean values of %ABL; the differences among the groups was considered statitistically significant (p<0.01). lt was suggested the usage of this technique in the dentistry offices and radiological services for the patient 's documentation and assortment and for later comparison about alveolar bone level
