Contributo para o estudo do tempo de espera para radioterapia em Portugal : adaptação de um instrumento de recolha de dados

RESUMO - É reconhecido o impacto negativo e prejudicial que o tempo de espera tem para radioterapia sobre o controlo tumoral e a taxa de sobrevida, bem como a importância de estabelecer tempos máximos para o início do tratamento, de forma a garantir o cumprimento de uma boa prática. O presente projecto de investigação tem o objectivo de construir e validar uma grelha de observação, como instrumento de recolha de dados, que se pretende no futuro aplicar, de forma a poder contribuir para o estudo sobre o tempo de espera para radioterapia em Portugal. Para alcançar o objectivo proposto, optou-se pela metodologia usada por Drinkwater e Williams na re-auditoria efectuada no Reino Unido pelo Royal College of Radiologists, em 2007, sobre os tempos de espera para radioterapia. A grelha de observação elaborada foi baseada na grelha utilizada por Drinkwater e Williams, na revisão da literatura, e tendo em consideração a realidade portuguesa. Após a análise das respostas dos peritos, ao questionário de avaliação e adequação do instrumento à realidade portuguesa, parece existir concordância na adequação do instrumento, o que nos permite afirmar a possibilidade da aplicação do mesmo nos centros de radioterapia de Portugal. --- --------------------------------ABSTRACT - It is recognized the negative impact that radiotherapy waiting time have in tumour control and survival, as well the importance of establish maximum waiting times for the start of the treatment, in the sense to guarantee a good practice. The present investigation project aim is to build and validates a data collection tool, which pretends to apply in the future, in the sense to contribute for the study of the radiotherapy waiting time in Portugal. To accomplish the project aim, we chose the method used by Drinkwater and Williams in the re-audit performed in United Kingdom for the Royal College of Radiologists, in 2007, about the radiotherapy waiting time. The data collection tool built was based on the data collection tool used by Drinkwater and Williams, on the literature review and taking in account the Portuguese reality. After the analyse of the experts answers, it seems to exist agreement about the adequacy of the data collection tool, which allow us to claim the possibility of the tool application at radiotherapy centres, in Portugal.

Traduzir Teatro no Estado Novo: Gata em Telhado de Zinco Quente (1959), tradução de Sérgio Guimarães, do original Cat on a Hot Tin Roof (1955), de Tennessee Williams

À luz da viragem cultural dos Estudos de Tradução ocorrida nos anos 80 e tendo em conta a interdisciplinaridade abordada nos campos literário, cultural e histórico pela Manipulation School (Lefevere, Bassnett, Lambert, Hermans e Toury), na esteira de Itamar Even-Zohar com a Teoria dos Polissistemas (1979), a presente dissertação pretende analisar a tradução portuguesa da peça Cat on a Hot Tin Roof (1955), da autoria de Tennessee Williams, intitulada Gata em Telhado de Zinco Quente (1959), de Sérgio Guimarães. Este pode ser um caso representativo de como a tradução para teatro actua na cultura receptora numa perspectiva diatópica, antevendo a dimensão intercultural da tradução para o palco. É ao tradutor que cabe a tarefa de transferir a peça de um sistema linguístico e cultural para outro, conhecendo, se possível, o grau de representabilidade da mesma e o contexto cultural de chegada. Deste modo, é evidenciada a competência artístico-criativa do tradutor teatral que trabalha com o intuito de manter, fidus interpres, as intenções do autor da obra original. No período em que Cat on a Hot Tin Roof foi escrita, ensombrado pelo controlo sociopolítico do Macartismo nos E.U.A. e o contexto em que a tradução foi concretizada, sob a vigência da Ditadura de Salazar, a (auto)censura desempenha um papel fundamental ao moldar a produção literária nos dois sistemas culturais. Numa época em que, mais do que nos dias de hoje, traduzir consistia numa actividade subserviente e secundária, Vasco Morgado, detentor do monopólio de teatros em Lisboa encomendou a Sérgio Guimarães a tradução de uma peça de Tennessee Williams. Com base na teoria desenvolvida por Lawrence Venuti em The Translator’s Invisibility (1995), não é despiciente problematizar, neste estudo de caso, a invisibilidade do tradutor/mediador entre o texto e a representação, abordando simultaneamente as estratégias então necessárias para a peça ser aprovada e posta em cena.

An atypical 7q11.23 deletion in a normal IQ Williams-Beuren syndrome patient.

Williams-Beuren syndrome (WBS; OMIM no. 194050) is a multisystemic neurodevelopmental disorder caused by a hemizygous deletion of 1.55 Mb on chromosome 7q11.23 spanning 28 genes. Haploinsufficiency of the ELN gene was shown to be responsible for supravalvular aortic stenosis and generalized arteriopathy, whereas LIMK1, CLIP2, GTF2IRD1 and GTF2I genes were suggested to be linked to the specific cognitive profile and craniofacial features. These insights for genotype-phenotype correlations came from the molecular and clinical analysis of patients with atypical deletions and mice models. Here we report a patient showing mild WBS physical phenotype and normal IQ, who carries a shorter 1 Mb atypical deletion. This rearrangement does not include the GTF2IRD1 and GTF2I genes and only partially the BAZ1B gene. Our results are consistent with the hypothesis that hemizygosity of the GTF2IRD1 and GTF2I genes might be involved in the facial dysmorphisms and in the specific motor and cognitive deficits observed in WBS patients.

A t(7;12) balanced translocation with breakpoints overlapping those of the Williams-Beuren and 12q14 microdeletion syndromes.

The molecular characterization of balanced chromosomal rearrangements have always been of advantage in identifying disease-causing genes. Here, we describe the breakpoint mapping of a de novo balanced translocation t(7;12)(q11.22;q14.2) in a patient presenting with a failure to thrive associated with moderate mental retardation, facial anomalies, and chronic constipation. The localization of the breakpoints and the co-occurrence of Williams-Beuren syndrome and 12q14 microdeletion syndrome phenotypes suggested that the expression of some of the dosage-sensitive genes of these two segmental aneuploidies were modified in cells of the proposita. However, we were unable to identify chromosomes 7 and/or 12-mapping genes that showed disturbed expression in the lymphoblastoids of the proposita. This case showed that position-effect might operate in some tissues, but not in others. It also illustrates the overlap of phenotypes presented by patients with the recently described 12q14 structural rearrangements.

Williams-Beuren syndrome TRIM50 encodes an E3 ubiquitin ligase.

Williams-Beuren syndrome (WBS) is a neurodevelopmental and multisystemic disease that results from hemizygosity of approximately 25 genes mapping to chromosomal region 7q11.23. We report here the preliminary description of eight novel genes mapping within the WBS critical region and/or its syntenic mouse region. Three of these genes, TRIM50, TRIM73 and TRIM74, belong to the TRIpartite motif gene family, members of which were shown to be associated to several human genetic diseases. We describe the preliminary functional characterization of these genes and show that Trim50 encodes an E3 ubiquitin ligase, opening the interesting hypothesis that the ubiquitin-mediated proteasome pathway might be involved in the WBS phenotype.
