The diagnosis of head and neck infections constitutes relevant step in their treatment. However, in spite of the fact that most of diseases in head and neck region are infectious in nature, several reasons collaborated for dentists do not ask laboratory tests in order to help clinical diagnosis. By mean of this review literature, based on research articles about the newest and most reliable methods of diagnosis for clinical laboratories, the authors discuss the advantages and disadvantages of each selected method and the relevant aspects in transportation of the specimens to the laboratory. Saliva, biofilm, pus, and blood are the most frequent specimens for microbial diagnosis, being that the most used methods are culture and those based on detection of deoxyribonucleic acid by polymerase chain reaction method. Whereas, the culture depends on cellular viability, and has reduced sensitivity, as well as needs favorable conditions in the sample collection and transportation, PCR shows high sensitivity and specificity, but it does not allow the determination of antibiogram, what reduces its usefulness. In addition, few laboratories possess conditions to perform cultivation of obligate anaerobes or have experience in the molecular detection of these microorganisms.

A cinomose é uma doença de desafio diagnóstico, especialmente quando não há histórico de vacinação. O objetivo deste estudo foi detectar e quantificar partículas virais de cinomose em diferentes fluidos e tecidos biológicos de um cão, determinando o melhor tecido para diagnóstico viral ante mortem na fase de viremia. Atendeu-se um cão adulto com manifestações clínicas inespecíficas e corpúsculos de Sinegaglia Lentz em linfócitos. Amostras post mortem foram submetidas a PCR em tempo real (qPCR), que demonstrou RNA viral em concentrações de (x105) em líquor (1.216), bexiga (1.009), cérebro (605), sangue (572), cerebelo (523), rins (373), fígado (257), pulmões (191), estômago (154), terceira pálpebra (70) e urina (2,1). A técnica de qPCR permitiu confirmar a infecção pelo vírus, descartando vacinação recente. A amostra de líquor mostrou-se representativa para diagnóstico molecular de fase aguda de cinomose no animal estudado.

This study had the aim of verify the perception of women and pregnant women about the HIV vertical transmission. It was approved by the Ethical Review Board. A semistructured questionnaire, pretested, was used, with open and closed questions which presented variables about socioeconomiccultural status and HIV vertical transmission. After informed consent, 114 women were enrolled in the study, 72 of them pregnant women, who looked for health care on the public health service of a Brazilian city, at São Paulo State, from October, 2009 to January, 2010. None of the interviewed women knew the meaning of HIV vertical transmission term. When asked about HIV transmission from mother to child, 86.8% answered it could happen, but half of them didn’t know how it occurred and only 34.2% knew how to prevent, but in a deficient way. As conclusion, these women did not know the HIV vertical transmission term and when they had some knowledge this was limited. These results serve as support for a preventive program for conscientization of women about HIV vertical transmission.
