Many investigations have shown that the coincidence between the ventilatory thresholds and those thresholds using the lactate response does not happen all of the time, suggesting that there is no relationship between the cause-effect between these phenomena. Thus, the present study had as main purpose to compare and correlate the Oxygen consumption (V̇O 2), the power (W), and the heart rate (HR) values attained using protocols to determine the Ventilatory Threshold (VT) and the Individual Anaerobic Threshold (IAT). The sampling was constituted by eight State and National level cyclists (age: 27.88 ± 8.77 years; body mass: 65.19 ± 4.40 kg; height: 169.31 ± 5,77 cm). The IAT was determined starting from a three minutes 50 W warm up with progressive increases of 50 W.3min -1 up to achieving the voluntary exhaustion, when the blood was collected in the last 20 seconds of each phase, and during the recovering period. In order to determine the VT, it was used the same protocol used to determine the IAT, but without performing the blood collection. The VT was identified through the changes in the pulmonary ventilation, as well as of the ventilatory equivalent of the O 2 and CO 2. The t-Student test showed no significant statistical difference in any of the attained variables. The associations found were high and significant. The V̇O 2 (ml.kg -1.min. -1), P (W), and HR (bpm) corresponding to the VT and IAT, as well as the associations between variables were respectively: 48.00 ± 3.82 vs. 48.08 ± 3.71 (r = 0.90); 256.25 ± 32.04 vs. 246.88 ± 33.91 (r = 0.84); 173.75 ± 9.18 vs. 171.25 ± 12.02 (r = 0.97). According to the results attained, it can be concluded that the IAT and the VT produce similar V̇O 2, W, and HR values, favoring the adoption of the VT because it is a non-invasive method to determine the anaerobic threshold in cyclists.

Aim. Occlusion and reperfusion of splanchnic arteries cause local and systemic changes due to the release of cytotoxic substances and the interaction between neutrophils and endothelial cells. This study evaluated the role of pentoxifylline (PTX) and n-acetylcysteine (NAC) in the reduction of ischemia, reperfusion shock and associated intestinal injury. Methods. Sixty rats were divided into 6 groups of 10 animals. Rats in three groups underwent mesenteric ischemia for 30 minutes followed by 120 minutes of reperfusion, and were treated with saline (SAL-5 mL/kg/ h), pentoxifylline (PTX-50 mg/kg) or n-acetylcysteine (NAC-430 mg/kg/h). The other 3 groups underwent sham ischemia and reperfusion (I/R) and received the same treatments. Hemodynamic, biochemical and histological parameters were evaluated. Results. No significant hemodynamic or intestinal histological changes were seen in any sham group. No histological changes were found in the lung or liver of animals in the different groups. There was a progressive decrease in mean arterial blood pressure, from mean of 111.53 mmHg (30 minutes of ischemia) to 44.30±19.91 mmHg in SAL-I/R. 34.52±17.22 mmHg in PTX-I/R and 33.81±8.39 mmHg in NAC-I/R (P<0.05). In all I/R groups, there was a progressive decrease in: aortic blood flow, from median baseline of 19.00 mL/min to 2.50±5.25 mL/min in SAL-I/ R; 2.95±6.40 mL/min in PTX-I/R and 3.35±3.40 mL/min in NAC-I/R (P<0.05); in the heart rate, from mean baseline of 311.74 bpm to 233.33±83.88 bpm in SAL-I/R, 243.20±73.25 bpm in PTX-I/R and 244.92±76.05 bpm in NAC-I/R (P<0.05); and esophageal temperature, from mean baseline of 33.68°C to 30.53±2.05°C in SAL-I/R, 30.69±2.21°C in PTX-I/R and 31.43±1.03°C in NAC-I/R (P<0.05). In the other hand, there was an attenuation of mucosal damage in the small intestine of the animals receiving PTX, and only in the ileum of the animals receiving NAC. No changes were found in ileum or plasma malondialdehyde levels in any group. Conclusion. PTX was more efficient in reducing histological lesions than NAC, but neither treatment prevented hemodynamic changes during splanchnic organs I/R.

Background: The role of the adrenergic system on ventricular remodeling induced by cigarette smoking is unknown. Objective: To investigate the influence of propranolol on ventricular remodeling induced by exposure to tobacco smoke. Methods: Rats were divided into three groups: 1) C, n=10 - control group; 2) F, n=10 - animals exposed to tobacco smoke; 3) BB, n=10 - animals receiving propranolol and exposed to tobacco smoke (40 mg/kg/day). After 2 months, the animals underwent echocardiographic and morphometric analyses. One-way ANOVA (mean ± standard deviation) or the Kruskal-Wallis test (median and interquartile interval) was used. Results: Group BB showed a lower heart rate than group F (C = 358 ± 74 bpm, F = 374 ± 53 bpm, BB = 297± 30; P = 0.02). Group F showed greater end-diastolic diameters (C = 18.6 ± 3.4 mm/kg, F = 22.8 ± 1.8 mm/kg, BB = 21.7 ± 1.8 mm/kg; P = 0.003) and left ventricular (LV) end-systolic diameters (C = 8.6 ± 2.1 mm/kg, F = 11.3 ± 1.3 mm/kg, BB = 9.9 ± 1.2 mm/kg; P = 0.004), adjusted for body weight (BW) and a tendency towards a lower ejection fraction (C = 0.90 ± 0.03, F = 0.87 ± 0.03, BB =0.90 ± 0.02; P = 0.07) than group C. Group BB showed a tendency towards a lower LV/BW ratio than group F (C = 1.94 (1.87 - 1.97), F = 2.03 (1.9-2.1) mg/g, BB = 1.89 (1.86-1.94); P = 0.09). Conclusion: Administration of propranolol attenuated some of the variables of ventricular remodeling induced by the exposure to tobacco smoke in rats.

Tachycardia-induced cardiomyopathy (TIC) is an important cause of heart failure as it is potentially reversible after ventricular rate control. A 66-year-old hypertensive woman presented with a 15-day history of tachycardia, dyspnoea and oedema. ECG revealed atrial fibrillation with ventricular frequency of 130 beats per minute (bpm). Echocardiogram showed dilated left ventricle (LV) with 0.39 ejection fraction. Angiography revealed non-obstructed coronary arteries. Heart rate and cardiac failure were controlled with amiodarone, digoxine, captopril, metoprolol and furosemide. During follow-up, despite drug dose optimisation, the patient kept complaining of tachycardia and dyspnoea with a ventricular rate between 108 and 120 bpm. Medical staff suspected she was not taking her medicines properly. Two months later, the patient was asymptomatic and had converted to sinus rhythm (heart rate of 76 bpm). Echocardiogram showed normal LV size and function. Patient 's diagnosis was TIC. Although rare, TIC should be considered in all cases of systolic dysfunction associated with tachyarrhythmia.

Model of the study: Controlled clinical trial. Objective: To verify the effects of 16 weeks of combined aerobic and resistance training on cardiac autonomic modulation in menopausal women. Methods: 17 menopausal women were divided into two groups: the training group (TG: n=11) and control group (CG: n=6). The body composition variables were estimated using dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry. The cardiac autonomic modulation was evaluated by heart rate variability using linear indexes. The training protocol consisted of 16 weeks of 50 minutes of resistance training and 30 minutes of aerobic training. Results: For the TG there was an increase in the rMSSD(ms) index (pre:17,4±3,7 and post:24,8±13,1, p<0,045), an increase in the duration of the intervals between the cardiac beats(ms) (pre:891,2±80,2 and post:974,1±71,4, p<0,003) and in the values of heart rate(bpm) (pre:68,1±6,4 and post:62,0±4,7, p<0,003), additionally for the spectral indexes in normalized units, changes for LF (pre:52,2±13,1 and post:44,5±12,4, p<0,025) and HF (pre:47,8±13,3 and post:55,5±12,4, p<0,025) were noticed, demonstrating increased parasympathetic and reduced sympathetic. There were no significant differences to CG. Conclusion: combined aerobic and resistance training promoted benefits to the autonomic modulation in menopausal women.

Os objetos do trabalho foram: 1) realizar a ecobiometria do concepto para acompanhar o crescimento fetal e determinar a idade gestacional em Cebus apella; 2) descrever o momento em que os órgãos do feto são observados; 3) realizar a sexagem fetal; 4) avaliar o fluxo sanguíneo das artérias uterinas (AU) e umbilical (Aum), mensurando os índices de resistividade (IR) e pulsatilidade (IP); 5) observar a presença ou ausência da incisura protodiastólica (IPD) e do componente diastólico nas ondas de fluxo sanguíneo das AU e Aum, respectivamente, durante a gestação em C. apella. Seis fêmeas adultas da espécie C. apella foram selecionadas e, posteriormente, condicionadas para os procedimentos de colpocitologia ou contenção química. Para o monitoramento do ciclo reprodutivo das fêmeas e crescimento folicular, foram realizados exames colpocitológicos e ultrassonografia (US), respectivamente, para a escolha do melhor dia da monta natural ou inseminação artificial. Vinte dias após a cópula ou inseminação, era realizado o diagnóstico da gestação por meio da US. O dia de cada exame em relação ao parto foi contado em retrospecto (nascimento = dia 0). Os exames ultrassonográficos foram feitos nos dias -133, -113, -83, -53, -21 e -1 antes do parto. A US bidimensional em modo B foi utilizada para mensurar o saco gestacional do dia - 133 até -113; os diâmetros biparietal, fronto-occiptal, circunferência da cabeça e circunferência abdominal do dia -113 a -1; e comprimento do fêmur do dia -53 até -23, mostrando o aumento desses parâmetros com o avanço da gestação. O coração e o estômago começaram a ser visualizados no dia -113 e, os demais órgãos e a sexagem no dia -83. O Triplex Doppler foi empregado para avaliar o fluxo sanguíneo durante o período gestacional, mostrando uma diminuição nos IR e IP das AU e Aum, do dia -133 a -1, bem como observar o desaparecimento da IPD (dia -1) e aparecimento do componente diastólico (dia -53) na onda de fluxo sanguíneo das AU e Aum, respectivamente. Entre os dias -113 a -1, a média da freqüência cardíaca fetal, obtida pelo Triplex Doppler, foi de 189 ± 2,43 bpm. O presente trabalho permitiu determinar a idade gestacional, avaliar o crescimento anatômico do feto, descrever o momento em que os órgãos são visualizados e realizar a sexagem em C. apella. Constatou-se, também, que o fluxo sanguíneo das AU e Aum são importantes parâmetros para avaliar a vitalidade fetal em C. apella.

Pretendeu-se estabelecer os parâmetros eletrocardiográficos (ECG) para felinos selvagens da Amazônia - Panthera onca (onça pintada), Leopardus pardalis (jaguatirica), Leopardus wiedii (gato-maracajá) e Herpailurus yaguarondi (gato-mourisco). Dentre estes felinos, 17 animais pertenciam ao Parque Zoobotânico Dr. Adhemar Monteiro (Capitão Poço/PA) e 2 animais ao 2° Batalhão de Infantaria de Selva (Belém/PA). Embora, o exame eletrocardiográfico não cause dor aos animas, é necessária a realização de contenção química, visto que os animais são perigosos e estressados. Dessa forma, instaurou-se um protocolo de contenção química, visando evitar fugas, estresse excessivo e proteger a integridade física dos animais e do examinador/auxiliares. Antes de serem sedados os animais passaram por jejum alimentar de 24 horas e hídrico de 12 horas. Posteriormente, foram contidos quimicamente, através do uso associativo entre os anestésicos cloridrato de ketamina (10mg/Kg) e cloridrato de xilazina (1mg/Kg), utilizando dardos com auxílio de uma zarabatana ou aplicação intra-muscular após contenção física com puçá. Na realização do eletrocardiograma utilizou-se o mesmo protocolo usado para os animais domésticos. A média de batimentos cardíacos foram os seguintes: 90 bpm para jaguatiricas, 106 bpm gato-maracajá, 166 bpm gato-mourisco e 91 bpm onças pintadas. A maioria das espécies apresentaram ritmo sinusal normal. O eixo elétrico médio variou de 90° a 120°. Os complexos QRS foram predominantemente positivos em DI, DII, DIII e AVF, e negativos em AVR e AVL. As derivações pré-cordiais apresentaram resultados semelhantes aos esperados para o gato doméstico. Os parâmetros observados durantes este estudo, correlacionados com os animais domésticos, apresentaram algumas diferenças, que se devem em função das diferenças fisiológicas associadas ao maior tamanho corporal dos felinos selvagens. Este é um estudo pioneiro visando solucionar problemas com relação ao ECG de felinos selvagens da Amazônia. Portanto, investigações mais amplas sobre o mesmo tema são necessárias para estabelecer critérios a respeito de anormalidades nessas espécies, devendo incluir outras drogas anestésicas e relatórios para combinações de características eletrocardiográficas de animais com doença cardíaca e com distúrbios eletrolíticos.
