PURPOSE: To analyze the time between the first symptom and treatment in patients treated for breast cancer in public hospitals in the Federal District. METHODS: This was a cross-sectional analysis. We interviewed 250 women diagnosed with breast cancer treated in six hospitals of the State Department of Health of the Federal District from November 2009 to January 2011. The time intervals studied were the time between the detection of the symptoms and treatment subdivided into intervals until and after the first medical appointment. The variables were: age, menopausal status, color, educational level, average monthly household income, origin, reason for the initial consultation, staging, tumor size, laterality, metastasis to axillary lymph nodes, neoadjuvant chemotherapy, and type of surgery. The Mann-Whtney test was used to assess the association of these variables with the time intervals until treatment. RESULTS: The mean age was 52 years, with a predominance of white women (57.6%), from the Federal District (62.4%), with a family income of up to 2 minimum wages (78%), and up to four years of schooling (52.4%). The staging of the disease ranged from II to IV in 78.8% of the women. The time between the first symptom and treatment was 229 days (median). After detection of the first symptom, 52.9% of the women attended a consultation within 30 days and 88.8% took more than 90 days to start treatment. Women with elementary school education had a greater delay to the start of treatment (p=0.049). CONCLUSIONS: There was a significant delay to start treatment of women with breast cancer in public hospitals of the Federal District, suggesting that efforts should be made to reduce the time needed to schedule medical appointments and to diagnose and treat these patients.

O objetivo deste estudo foi avaliar o efeito da termoterapia (56 ºC por 6 min) e quimioterapia (propiconazole 250 ml.l-1) associado com temperatura de armazenamento (temperatura ambiente, 18 ºC e 13 ºC) no controle de podridões de bananas (Musa spp.) 'Prata-Anã' (AAB) em pós-colheita. Os tratamentos apresentaram diferenças significativas na percentagem de área lesionada por fruto, perda de peso e coloração externa da casca em todas as temperaturas de armazenamento. A quimioterapia e a combinação termoterapia e quimioterapia evitaram a manifestação de podridões nas três condições de armazenamento, enquanto a termoterapia reduziu a percentagem de área lesionada por fruto de 98% para 11% em temperatura ambiente, de 8% para 7% em 18 ºC e de 10% para 0% em 13 ºC, sendo mais eficiente sob a temperatura de 13 ºC. Frutos não tratados perderam 25%, 10% e 3% de peso e atingiram a cor 7, 5 e 1 em temperatura ambiente, 18 ºC e 13 ºC, respectivamente. Frutos tratados com termoterapia e quimioterapia perderam 24, 11 e 5% e 20, 10 e 3%, e atingiram índice médio de cor 4 e 3,5, respectivamente. O período de conservação foi estendido para 18, 24 e 45 dias em temperatura ambiente, 18 ºC e 13 ºC, respectivamente. A combinação dos métodos evitou a manifestação de podridões, reduziu a perda de peso e manteve a cor da casca e a qualidade dos frutos.

São diversos e comuns os efeitos mucocutâneos dos quimioterápicos, alguns por ação citotóxica, outros por hipersensibilidade ao fármaco. Os autores relatam a ocorrência de inflamação em múltiplas queratoses seborreicas pré-existentes, após terapia citorredutora com gencitabina, em paciente sob tratamento para neoplasia de pâncreas. Discutem, ainda, a benignidade do evento e alertam para a necessidade de adequada identificação dos efeitos cutâneos decorrentes da quimioterapia sistêmica.

Utilizaram-se 12 cães, machos, distribuídos em quatro grupos (G) experimentais, selecionados de acordo com o tempo de fluidoterapia com solução fisiológica 0,9%: G1 (sem fluidoterapia), G2 (uma hora de fluidoterapia antes da cisplatina), G3 (uma hora de fluidoterapia antes da cisplatina e uma hora após) e G4 (duas horas de fluidoterapia antes da cisplatina e uma após). Todos os animais receberam a cisplatina (70mg/m²), pela via intravenosa, sendo os ciclos de quimioterapia realizados em intervalos de três semanas, num total de três ciclos. O ondansetron (0,4mg/kg) foi administrado pela via intravenosa, a cada oito horas, no dia da quimioterapia e, a seguir, a cada 12 horas, por dois dias. O methimazole (40mg/kg) foi pela via oral, 30 minutos antes da cisplatina e quatro horas após. Avaliaram-se os parâmetros hematológicos, bioquímicos, urinários e dosagem de tiroxina e triiodotironina a cada sete dias até o término do experimento. Esse protocolo foi eficaz e seguro em cães que permaneceram sob fluidoterapia durante duas a três horas. Os animais que não receberam fluidoterapia e os que ficaram somente uma hora sob infusão intravenosa de solução fisiológica apresentaram alterações que resultaram em não-recomendação do protocolo.

The objective of this study was to verify the prevalence of intestinal parasites and/or commensals in the neoplastic patients undergoing chemotherapy. Stool samples were analyzed by the method of Lutz (1919) and Rugai (1954), in triplicate. This work was composed of three groups, the first one (GI) formed by neoplastic patients that are not undergoing chemotherapy, the second (GII) comprised patients who were undergoing chemotherapy, and the third group (GIII) consisting of patients who completed chemotherapy. A total of 30 patients (GI-5, GII-18 and GIII-7) were screened at the Assis Regional Hospital of the Unified Health System of Assis, São Paulo. Additional information on antiparasitic treatment and tumor type were obtained by questionnaire. The positivity was 66.7% (20 cases) for intestinal parasites and/or commensals. The helminths were Ascaris lumbricoides (36.7%), Hookworms (20%) and Hymenolepis diminuta (3.3%). Among the highlights are protozoan Giardia lamblia (46.7%), Entamoeba coli (6.7%), E. histolytica/dispar (3.3%), Endolimax nana (3.3%) and Iodameba butschlii (3.3%). The high frequency of intestinal parasites and/or commensals in the neoplastic patients can be attributed to poor personal hygiene and lack of immunity to reinfection and poor knowledge of the prophylaxis of infection by protozoa and helminths. The results indicate the necessity of adopting a new criterion for neoplastic patients undergoing chemotherapy, primarily performing parasitological diagnosis, treatment and monitoring of cure of intestinal parasitic infections in this risk group.

Actions to overcome a disease are dependant, essentially, on what is known about it. Procedures followed in the past were sometimes bizarre, but justified because of how little was known about the disease. The tuberculosis prechemotherapeutic age was somber due to the high levels of fatalities and morbidity. With the arrival of the chemotherapeutic treatment its prognosis has changed. Tuberculosis declined in the 50's and stabilized in the 80's. Nevertheless, it is back increasing alarming its numbers more than ever; probably because of some factors, among them, the public health system lack of attention and the government's policies, increasing in the migration to and from the endemic areas, development of drug multi-resistant cepa and also to the HIV infection. An universal antimycobacteria chemotherapy treatment is not accepted, maybe because of the number of drugs that are available. Modern chemotherapy, however, has an attack and a maintenance phases with the aim to eliminate the bacillus of fast and slow multiplication, respectively. The treatment period is long, when compared with other infectious diseases, that leads to the lack of compliance. In spite of the available resources in the fight against tuberculosis they seem insufficient to restrain the disease. This has forced the search for new chemotherapy alternatives to avoid strong come back of tuberculosis to the point of being called the 'white plague' well into the 21'st century.

Strategies that promote selective activation of prodrugs by enzymes can be divided into two major classes: 1) deliver of a monoclonal antibody-enzyme immunoconjugate that can recognize a specific antigen and promote the prodrug to a citotoxic drug, with a high selectivity for the target cells, and 2) selective gene delivery encoding an enzyme that can promote the prodrug to a citotoxic drug for the target cells. In this article are discussed ADEPT (antibody-directed enzyme prodrug therapy), GDEPT (gene-directed enzyme prodrug therapy), VDEPT (virus-directed enzyme prodrug therapy), GPAT (genetic prodrug activation therapy) and PDEPT (polymer-directed enzyme prodrug therapy) approaches, their clinical trials, advantages, disadvantages and perspectives.
