Excesso de Peso, Variáveis Antropométricas e Pressão Arterial em Escolares de 10 a 18 Anos

Fundamento: Estima-se que a prevalência de hipertensão em crianças e adolescentes varie entre 1-13%. O excesso de peso e a obesidade central estão relacionados aos níveis pressóricos em adultos e podem ser importantes na patogênese precoce da HAS quando presentes na infância. Objetivos: Identificar a associação entre variáveis antropométricas e níveis pressóricos em escolares de 5.ª a 8.ª séries e avaliar qual medida obteve maior correlação com a medida dos níveis pressóricos. Métodos: Estudo transversal contemporâneo com amostra de base populacional probabilística por conglomerados em escolas públicas do ensino fundamental de Porto Alegre, de alunos matriculados entre a 5.ª e a 8.ª série. Foram coletados dados sobre fatores de risco familiares e antropometria. A análise estatística incluiu correlações e ajuste dos intervalos de confiança para conglomerados. Resultados: A média de idade dos participantes foi de 12,57 (± 1,64) anos, dos quais 55,2% eram do sexo feminino. Encontraram-se 11,3% da amostra com níveis pressóricos alterados e 16,2% com valores limítrofes. Das variáveis antropométricas analisadas, a que demonstrou maior correlação com valores pressóricos aumentados foi o diâmetro do quadril (r = 0,462, p < 0,001) seguido de circunferência abdominal menor (r = 0,404, p < 0,001) e prega cutânea abdominal (r = 0,291, p < 0,001). Conclusão: Foi observada associação entre as circunferências da cintura e dobras cutâneas e níveis pressóricos aumentados nos escolares da amostra. Portanto, é de fundamental importância que a aferição da pressão arterial e as medidas de cintura e quadril sejam rotina nos serviços de saúde de forma precoce a fim de prevenir essa condição patológica.

4-Second Exercise Test: Reference Values for Ages 18–81 Years

Background: Physiological reflexes modulated primarily by the vagus nerve allow the heart to decelerate and accelerate rapidly after a deep inspiration followed by rapid movement of the limbs. This is the physiological and pharmacologically validated basis for the 4-s exercise test (4sET) used to assess the vagal modulation of cardiac chronotropism. Objective: To present reference data for 4sET in healthy adults. Methods: After applying strict clinical inclusion/exclusion criteria, 1,605 healthy adults (61% men) aged between 18 and 81 years subjected to 4sET were evaluated between 1994 and 2014. Using 4sET, the cardiac vagal index (CVI) was obtained by calculating the ratio between the duration of two RR intervals in the electrocardiogram: 1) after a 4-s rapid and deep breath and immediately before pedaling and 2) at the end of a rapid and resistance-free 4-s pedaling exercise. Results: CVI varied inversely with age (r = -0.33, p < 0.01), and the intercepts and slopes of the linear regressions between CVI and age were similar for men and women (p > 0.05). Considering the heteroscedasticity and the asymmetry of the distribution of the CVI values according to age, we chose to express the reference values in percentiles for eight age groups (years): 18–30, 31–40, 41–45, 46–50, 51–55, 56–60, 61–65, and 66+, obtaining progressively lower median CVI values ranging from 1.63 to 1.24. Conclusion: The availability of CVI percentiles for different age groups should promote the clinical use of 4sET, which is a simple and safe procedure for the evaluation of vagal modulation of cardiac chronotropism.

Estudos sobre a correção da acidez do solo causada pelo Al+3 trocável. I. Efeitos sobre o pH, Al+3 e H+ trocáveis em solos das séries Sertãozinho e Monte Olimpo e das unidades 2 e 18

Ê descrito um ensaio de incubação com a finalidade de estudar os efeitos da adição de CaCO3 sobre o pH e Al³+ e H+ trocáveis de 4 terras, servindo-se do método do Al³+ trocàvel para a determinação das doses de CaCO3. De um modo geral, se encontrou uma forte elevação nos índices pH das terras e redução nos teores de Al³+ e de H+ trocáveis das mesmas, à medida em que se aumentavam as quantidades de CaCO3 empregadas. A dose 1 de CaCO3, que correspondia à quantidade de cálcio estequiometricamente igual à de Al³+ trocável presente em cada terra, foi suficiente para elevar o pH de todas elas ao redor de 5,7. O teor de Al³+ trocável, contudo, em uma delas permaneceu acima do nível considerado não tóxico às plantas.

Análisis jurisprudencial del derecho al secreto de las comunicaciones (art. 18.3 C.E.)

Este trabajo aspira a plantear en qué estado se halla actualmente la regulación de la intervención de las comunicaciones telefónicas en nuestro ordenamiento jurídico. Nuestro enfoque en el presente trabajo será plantearnos la legitimidad o licitud de las medidas de intervención telefónica así como su ámbito de validez y eficacia a efectos de su utilización en el proceso penal en el sentido de qué límites o controles deben establecerse. Asimismo analizaremos el derecho fundamental al secreto de las comunicaciones consagrado en el art. 18.3 de la Constitución y la regulación positiva de dicho derecho en nuestro ordenamiento jurídico. En definitiva, se trata de plantear la problemática en términos amplios para posteriormente profundizar y abordar cuestiones de gran relevancia tales como qué sucede o qué tratamiento debe darse a los llamados hallazgos casuales o a la prueba ilegalmente obtenida, elementos que debido a su extensión trataremos de una forma puntual y que serán objeto de desarrollo en un trabajo posterior.

Can a targeted psychological intervention be effective for young people following a first manic episode? Results from an 18-month pilot study.

Aim: There is a scarce literature describing psychological interventions for a young, first-episode cohort who have experienced psychotic mania. This study aimed to assess whether a manualized psychological intervention could be effective in reducing symptomatology and relapse, and improve functional outcome in this population. Methods: The study was an open-label design, drawn from a larger pharmacotherapy trial. All participants in the pharmacotherapy trial were offered a manualized psychological intervention in addition to case management. Inclusion in the psychotherapy group was based on participant's choice, and on completion of four or more of the eight modules offered. All clinical files were audited to ensure accuracy of group allocation. Forty young people aged 15 to 25 years old who had experienced a manic episode with psychotic features were recruited into the study, with 20 people in the combined treatment as usual plus psychotherapy group (P+TAU), and an equal number of matched control participants who received treatment as usual (TAU) within the same service. All participants were prescribed antipsychotic and mood-stabilizing medication. Symptomatic, functional and relapse measures were taken both at baseline and at 18-month follow-up. Results: Manic symptoms improved significantly for both groups, with no differences between groups. Depression scores and overall symptom severity were significantly lower in the P + TAU group. No differences were evident between groups with regard to numbers or type of relapse. The P + TAU group had significantly better social and occupational functioning after 18 months. Conclusion: This study suggests that a manualized psychological intervention targeted to a first-episode population can be effective in reducing depression and overall symptom severity, and can improve functional outcome following a first episode of psychotic mania.

Contribution of TIR domain-containing adapter inducing IFN-beta-mediated IL-18 release to LPS-induced liver injury in mice.

BACKGROUND/AIMS: After treatment with heat-killed Propionibacterium acnes mice show dense hepatic granuloma formation. Such mice develop liver injury in an interleukin (IL)-18-dependent manner after challenge with a sublethal dose LPS. As previously shown, LPS-stimulated Kupffer cells secrete IL-18 depending on caspase-1 and Toll-like receptor (TLR)-4 but independently of its signal adaptor myeloid differentiation factor 88 (MyD88), suggesting importance of another signal adaptor TIR domain-containing adapter inducing IFN-beta (TRIF). Nalp3 inflammasome reportedly controls caspase-1 activation. Here we investigated the roles of MyD88 and TRIF in P. acnes-induced hepatic granuloma formation and LPS-induced caspase-1 activation for IL-18 release. METHODS: Mice were sequentially treated with P. acnes and LPS, and their serum IL-18 levels and liver injuries were determined by ELISA and ALT/AST measurement, respectively. Active caspase-1 in LPS-stimulated Kupffer cells was determined by Western blotting. RESULTS: Macrophage-ablated mice lacked P. acnes-induced hepatic granuloma formation and LPS-induced serum IL-18 elevation and liver injury. Myd88(-/-) Kupffer cells, but not Trif(-/-) cells, exhibited normal caspase-1 activation upon TLR4 engagement in vitro. Myd88(-/-) mice failed to develop hepatic granulomas after P. acnes treatment and liver injury induced by LPS challenge. In contrast, Trif(-/-) mice normally formed the hepatic granulomas, but could not release IL-18 or develop the liver injury. Nalp3(-/-) mice showed the same phenotypes of Trif(-/-) mice. CONCLUSIONS: Propionibacterium acnes treatment MyD88-dependently induced hepatic granuloma formation. Subsequent LPS TRIF-dependently activated caspase-1 via Nalp3 inflammasome and induced IL-18 release, eventually leading to the liver injury.
