A disfonia espasmódica é um distúrbio vocal grave, caracterizada por espasmos musculares laríngeos durante a fonação, produzindo voz tensa e estrangulada. Atualmente, acredita-se que tenha origem neurológica, mas há evidências que associam suas causas com alterações psicogênicas. O presente estudo visa descrever dois casos diagnosticados como disfonia espasmódica, com manifestações fonoaudiológicas e psicológicas distintas. O estudo descritivo foi realizado por meio de análise dos prontuários, incluindo avaliação otorrinolaringológica, neurológica, avaliação vocal perceptivo-auditiva, análise acústica e Protocolo de Qualidade de Vida e Voz (QVV). Caso 1: sexo feminino, 65 anos, discreta coaptação de bandas ventriculares, fenda fusiforme e intenso tremor laríngeo. Apresentou quadro de alucinação, diagnosticada, posteriormente, como Esquizofrenia. Faz uso de Risperidona e Pondera. Apresentou loudness rebaixado, pitch agravado, rouquidão, hipernasalidade leve, tempo máximo de fonação reduzido, incoordenação pneumofonoarticulátoria e G², R², Bº, Aº, S³. Caso 2: sexo feminino, 68 anos, alteração das pregas vocais e intenso estrangulamento de bandas ventriculares. Sofreu três acidentes vasculares encefálicos (AVE) e, após o primeiro, iniciou-se a rouquidão. Realiza atendimento psicológico, ainda sem diagnóstico fechado. Apresentou loudness rebaixado, pitch agudizado, diplofonia durante a conversação, tempo máximo de fonação reduzido, incoordenação pneumofonoarticulatória e G³, R², Bº, Aº, S³. Os dados demonstraram distintos graus de severidades nas manifestações otorrinolaringológicas e fonoaudiológicas, além de diferentes envolvimentos psicogênicos. O grau de severidade ficou implícito no impacto da voz na qualidade de vida das pacientes estudadas.

The Medical Physics has been developing very fast due to the progress of the technologies and to the increase of the concerns with cure of diseases. One of the Medical Physics main performances at the present time is the use of ionizing radiations for cancer treatment, especially, services as Radiotherapy. The radiotherapy technique uses ionizing radiation with therapeutic end of cancer controls, avoiding your proliferation and it worsens of the patient. For the treatment a radiation bunch is used, with rectangular form, that it passes through the different types of tissues of the patient's body, and depending on the attenuation and of the depth of the fabrics, a great amount of energy is deposited inside in different points of the body. Like this, to plan this treatment type it should be obtained the dimension of the distribution and dose absorption along the volume. For this, it is necessary in the planning of the treatment of the cancer for radiotherapy to build isodose curves, which are lines that represent points of same amount of dose to be deposited in the area to be treated. To aid the construction of the curves of form isodose to reach the best result in the planning of the treatment, in other words, a great planning, providing the maximum of dose in the tumor and saving the healthy and critical organs, it has been using mathematical tools and computational. A plan of cancer treatment for radiotherapy is considered great when all the parameters that involve the treatment, be them physical or biological, they were investigated and adapted individually for the patient. For that, is considered the type and the location of the tumor, worrying about the elimination of the cancer without damaging the healthy tissue of the treated area, mainly the risk organs, which are in general very sensitive to the radiations. This way, the optimization techniques... (Complete abstract click electronic access below)

Tricyclic antidepressants, such as amitriptyline, are inhibitors of serotonin and norepinephrine neuronal reuptake and this action has been implied in changes in pain threshold supporting its use to alleviate neuropathic pain. Although is known that 1 adrenoceptors participate in the antinociceptive effect of amitriptyline it is unclear which receptor subtype is the target for the increased synaptic levels of norepinephrine resultant from the inhibition of neuronal uptake. Paradoxically, several tricyclic antidepressants including amitriptyline also behave as antagonists of 1 adrenoceptors with different affinities for its subtypes: these drugs have 10 to 100-fold higher affinities for 1A than for 1B and 1D adrenoceptors. This work investigated the involvement of 1 adrenoceptors subtypes in the antinociceptive effect of the amitriptyline in a constriction of the sciatic nerve in rats by determining the effects of subtype selective 1 adrenoceptors antagonists. Fifteen days later, mechanical hyperalgesia was analyzed in a Randall-Selitto test. The 1A-selective antagonist RS100329 was the most potent antagonist of the contractions of the rat prostate, whereas the 1D-selective antagonist BMY 7378 (up to 100g/Kg) was unable to affect these contractions. The antagonist prazosin, BMY 7378 and 5-methyl urapidil inhibited the antinociceptive effect of the amitriptyline. However, the highly selective 1A adrenoceptor antagonist RS100329 was unable to affect the antinociception induced by amitriptyline. These results point out that 1B and/or 1D adrenoceptors, but not 1A, are involved in the antinociceptive effects of amitriptyline

In this paper, a computational analysis, using a cellular automata model, has been developed to analyze post-feeding dispersal behavior of blow y larvae. This model aimed to: simulate the exponential decline of pupal number in relation to the feed source and spatial oscillation due to larval interaction during dispersal; study whether the prior pupal presence in uences distribution patterns of larval frequency; and compare obtained unidirectional dispersal patterns to the cross-dimensional ones. The cellular automata (CA) model was able to successfully reproduce the essential features of the larval dispersal process and, thus, show the importance of local interaction in the studied dispersal process dynamics. Oscillations could be explained by the interaction among dispersing larvae and intrinsic pupation time. The box size and the initial larval density were important factors for the experiment because they in uenced the results. Results showed that the unidirectional dispersal could be used to simulate the larval dispersion that occurs in the natural environment, because both models had a similar result. These results are important to understand how di erent factors can in uence the dynamics of blow y larval dispersal, bringing important results for behavioral ecology and forensic entomology

A polimicrogiria (PMG) é uma malformação do córtex cerebral causada por falhas no seu desenvolvimento, caracterizando-se por um número excessivo de pequenos giros e laminação anormal, dando à superfície cortical uma aparência irregular e grosseira. A gravidade de suas manifestações clínicas se relaciona diretamente com a extensão da malformação e das regiões cerebrais afetadas, sendo que a presença de lesões bilaterais ou unilaterais extensas indica um pior prognóstico. Uma das síndromes de polimicrogiria mais freqüentes e, conseqüentemente, mais bem descritas clinicamente, é a polimicrogiria perisylviana bilateral (PPB). Essa forma de PMG atinge a região que tange a fenda Sylviana, podendo apresentar-se tanto unilateralmente quanto em ambos os hemisférios. Vários genes têm sido relacionados a diferentes formas de polimicrogiria, são eles AFF2,TUBA1A, TUBB2B e TUBA8, SRPX2 e WDR62. Estes genes já foram estudados pelo nosso grupo de pesquisa em um grupo de pacientes compostos de casos familiares e esporádicos, acometidos em sua maioria pela forma perisylviana de PMG. Nenhuma variante deletéria foi identificada nestes genes. Recentemente um novo gene foi implicado na etiologia molecular das PMG, o TUBB3. O gene em questão pertence à mesma família de TUBA1A, TUBB2B e TUBA8 e codifica uma proteína de ligação aos microtúbulos, tendo importante papel na formação do fuso. Além deste gene, também tem sido descritas alterações genômicas, denominadas de Copy Number Variations (CNV), estas variações estruturais tem sido associadas com diversos distúrbios neurológicos, que vão desde transtornos psiquiátricos até malformações do córtex cerebral como a PMG. Desta forma, o objetivo deste trabalho foi analisar a existência de alterações de ponto deletérias no gene TUBB3 em pacientes com PMG e também, o envolvimento de CNVsna etiologia deste tipo de malformação ...

A metal coping may undergo changes during porcelain firing, which compromises its marginal adaptation. The use of NiCrTi alloy proposes to minimize this effect through the high melting point of titanium present in its composition. This study evaluated the influence of porcelain firing cycle on the marginal adaptation of NiCrTi copings in different preparation designs. Forty standardized metal dies were fabricated with the following combinations finish line/convergence of the axial walls: 1) shoulder/6°; 2) shoulder/20°; 3) sloping shoulder/6°; 4) sloping shoulder/20°. On each die a metal ceramic restoration coping was made. The die/coping set was stabilized with orthodontic elastics, divided into four equidistant areas with three measurement points each and a cementation pressure was simulated. The measurements were taken under a stereomicroscope (32×). After the first measurement, the copings were submitted to sintering cycles simulating porcelain application. For repeated measurements, the same procedures described above were performed. Data were submitted to Student’s-t test, 1-way ANOVA and Tukey´s test (α = 0.05). Adaptation means (µm) before and after porcelain firing in different preparations were: 1) 111.92 and 127.31; 2) 124.15 and 135.48; 3) 122.19 and 138.77; 4) 166.09 and 186.72; respectively. The porcelain firing impaired adaptation, regardless of the preparation design. The preparation in a 20° sloping shoulder provided a worse adaptation when compared with preparations that had 6° and 20° shoulder, which were statistically equal. The 6° sloping shoulder was statistically equal to the other three preparation designs.
