A tuberculose pulmonar continua sendo um dos maiores problemas de saúde pública em todo o mundo, inclusive no Brasil. A situação de controle se agrava com a dificuldade de implantar-se um programa eficiente pela desproporção entre necessidades e recursos disponíveis e pela limitada cobertura e utilização da capacidade instalada de atenção, e no fim da década de 80 pela propagação do HIV. Com o objetivo de traçar o perfil epidemiológico dos pacientes com tuberculose pulmonar atendidos na Unidade Básica de Saúde da Pedreira, no município de Belém do Pará, foram estudados 143 pacientes de ambos os sexos e de todas as faixas etárias com diagnóstico de tuberculose, no período de janeiro de 2001 a julho de 2002. Aspectos analisados: sinais e sintomas, baciloscopia, raio X de tórax, comunicantes intradomiciliares, história de tuberculose na família, tempo entre o início dos sintomas e o início do tratamento, tipos de alta do tratamento, procedência, grau de escolaridade, recidivas, ocupação, qualificação da ocupação, renda familiar, refeições diárias, situação da moradia, tipo de parede, número de janelas, número de cômodos x número de moradores, água encanada, luz elétrica e tipo de fossa do banheiro, práticas de tabagismo e etilismo. Resultados: o sintoma mais freqüente foi a tosse com 89,51 %; a baciloscopia positiva correspondeu a 60,01 %; os achados radiológicos com infiltração corresponderam a 42,86 %; 84,62 % dos pacientes possuem pelo menos um comunicante intradomiciliar; 57,34 % apresentaram pelo menos um caso de tuberculose na família; 65,04 % demoraram 2 meses para começar o tratamento após os sintomas terem iniciado; 94,23 % receberam alta por cura; 3,85 % altas por abandono e 1,92 % altas por óbito; 78 % procederam de Belém; 7 % são analfabetos e 51,75 % possuem primeiro grau incompleto; 11,19 % de recidivas; das pessoas que possuem ocupação 68,49 % não possuem qualificação; 86 % apresentaram renda familiar inferior a 6 salários mínimos; 43,68 % praticam o etilismo. Conclui-se que o sexo e a faixa etária predominantes foram respectivamente o masculino e de 16 a 45 anos; as condições sócio-econômico-culturais e de moradia são muito precárias. Sendo fundamental entender que esta é uma das doenças que mais claramente coloca em evidência a sua determinação social. Os processos biológicos da saúde são, portanto, parte da vida social da coletividade, desta forma, a saúde e a doença são tomadas como pólos de um mesmo processo que se constitui como uma parte da totalidade maior que é a vida. Palestra de educação sanitária é, portanto, meio educativo criando hábito de saúde que certamente contribuirá para um melhor desenvolvimento das potencialidades do ser humano. Este estudo corrobora pesquisas anteriores.

ABSTRACT: A phenolic fraction was obtained from of the acetone-water-acetic acid extract of Inga edulis leaves, by liquid-liquid partition and SPE-C18 cartridges. This method provided an increase of 108, 66, 51, 50 and 36% of flavonols, proanthocyanidins, total polyphenols, gallotannins and flavanols, respectively. The major phenolics in purified fraction were procyanidin B2, catechin and myricetin-3-O-α-L-rhamnopyranoside, which achieved increases of 111, 47 and 45%, respectively, after SPE. Acid hydrolysis confirmed the presence of procyanidins, prodelphinidins and glycosylated flavonoids.

O objetivo deste trabalho foi analisar o limite da capacidade de escoamento de esgoto sanitário em tubulação interceptora assentada na área urbana do município de Belém – PA. Para isso, foram considerados a Bacia de Esgotamento 5 (BE 5), as projeções populacionais e de produção de esgoto (2010-2030) da área oficial com coleta e transporte de esgoto da BE 5 (Área 1) e da área total dessa Bacia (Área 2), os 100m (cem) do interceptor assentado na BE 5 (chegada da Estação Elevatória de Esgoto do Una), bem como as informações identificadas dessa tubulação e a alteração de declividade proposta neste trabalho. Foi executado o dimensionamento hidráulico e verificou-se que na Área 1, para todas as declividades escolhidas, o interceptor terá capacidade de escoamento no período de 2010-2030, chegando a lâmina líquida máxima de 0,225 em 2030. No entanto, para a Área 2 verificou-se que a capacidade de escoamento terá comprometimento, quando utilizamos três das sete declividades estimadas, chegando a lâmina líquida máxima de 0,950 em 2030, indo de encontro ao recomentado na NBR 9649/1986 Projeto de Rede Coletora de Esgoto Sanitário (0,750). Recomenda-se, neste caso, a reestruturação/ampliação do sistema de coleta e transporte de esgoto da BE 5, em virtude do aumento populacional e de produção de esgoto, resultante da nova divisão de Bacias de Esgotamento realizado no PDSES (2010).

The main feature of pulmonary emphysema is airflow obstruction resulting from the destruction of the alveolar walls distal to the terminal bronchioles. Existing clinical approaches have improved and extended the quality of life of emphysema patients. However, no treatment currently exists that can change the disease course and cure the patient. The different therapeutic approaches that are available aim to increase survival and/or enhance the quality of life of emphysema patients. In this context, cell therapy is a promising therapeutic approach with great potential for degenerative pulmonary diseases. In this protocol proposition, all patients will be submitted to laboratory tests, such as evaluation of heart and lung function and routine examinations. Stem cells will be harvested by means of 10 punctures on each anterior iliac crest, collecting a total volume of 200 mL bone marrow. After preparation, separation, counting and labeling (optional) of the mononuclear cells, the patients will receive an intravenous infusion from the pool of Bone Marrow Mononuclear Cells (BMMC). This article proposes a rational and safe clinical cellular therapy protocol which has the potential for developing new projects and can serve as a methodological reference for formulating clinical application protocols related to the use of cellular therapy in COPD. This study protocol was submitted and approved by the Brazilian National Committee of Ethics in Research (CONEP - Brazil) registration number 14764. It is also registered in ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT01110252). (c) 2013 Sociedade Portuguesa de Pneumologia. Published by Elsevier Espana, S.L. All rights reserved.

Patients with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease may have muscle dysfunction, which ultimately reduce the functional capacity. Neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) is a technique that can be effective in these patients, and implies low overload to the cardiorespiratory system. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of NMES on muscle strength and cardiorespiratory fitness in COPD patients. Five patients (2 men, 3 women) were evaluated, with a mean age of 70.40 ± 6.61 years, and underwent anamnesis, anthropometric measurements, spirometry, pulmonary function, cardiopulmonary functional capacity and muscle strength in the lower limbs. After the evaluations, the patients were enrolled in a program of electrical stimulation of the quadriceps muscles, performed 3 times per week for 5 weeks. Each session lasted for 30 minutes, being reassessed at the end of the 15 sessions. Statistically significant response is observed to gain strength in lower limb (p = 0.005), but no significant responses were observed for the distance in six minute walking test before and after the test protocol for electrical stimulation. Showing that with NMES was located just gain muscle strength without effects on functional capacity, and there are few studies that investigate these effects, so further studies are needed to investigate this relationship.

Introduction: The pulmonary rehabilitation (PR) is composed of aerobic and resisted exercises that improve the functional capacity to the exercise, life quality and decrease respiratory symptoms in subjects with chronic pulmonary disease. Objective: Assess the effects of a combined PR program in the cardiorespiratory function and peripheral muscle strength in subjects with chronic pulmonary disease. Method: Patients with chronic pulmonary disease were submitted to the PR program, which was developed on 24 sessions of 60 minutes (three times per week). The program was composed of aerobic exercises (two times per week) and resisted exercises (once a week). Before and after the PR the patients were submitted to manovacuometry in order to measure the maximum inspiratory pressure (MIP) and the maximum expiratory pressure (MEP), ventilometry, peek expiratory flow (PEF), six minute walking test (6MWT) and one maximum repetition (1RM). The data are presented in absolute frequency, percentage and mean±standard deviation. The t Student test was used to compare data before and after the PR and the ANOVA test to compare before, after and predicted distances in the 6MWT (p<0.05). Results: Seven patients were part of this study, 85.70% of women, 71.40% with pulmonary emphysema diagnosis. The mean age was 69.43±5.59 years old, the height was 1.61±0.07 m, the mean weight was 66.20±8.40 kg and the body mass index mean was 25.50±2.48 kg/m². From the variables assessed, the MEP increased from 79.71±13.69 to 84.42±12.83 cmH2O (p=0,03), the PEF increase from 255.71±66.3 to 320.00±93.63 l/min (p=0,03) and the distance in the 6MWT from 415.28±47.90 to 483,79±79,77 m (p=0,02). The load in the 1RM test in the reverse peck deck exercise (before - - 17.10±8.10kg; after – 210.40±9.00kg), knee in leg extension machine (before – 17.10±9.50kg; after – 26.40±13.10kg) and hip extensors (right before – 48.60±22.10kg; after – 62.90±19.30kg; and left before – 46.40±20.10kg; after – 62.10±18.20kg) increased significantly (p<0,05). Conclusion: After the PR program there was improvement in the expiratory muscular strength, in the lower limbs strength and in the functional capacity. Besides that, there was a reduction in the airflow obstruction of the subjects with chronic pulmonary disease.

Introduction: Obesity is a risk factor for postoperative pulmonary complications. Overweight can alter respiratory mechanics and decrease lung volumes and capacities. Bariatric surgery (BS) has been used as treatment for morbid obesity, but this surgery can lead to respiratory complications. Objective: To evaluate pulmonary function in morbid obese patients undergoing bariatric surgery. Methods: The patients were submitted to pulmonary function testing, including slow and forced vital capacity (SVC and FVC), forced expiratory volume in the first second (FEV1), Tiffenau index (FEV1/FVC), forced expiratory flow 25-75% (FEF25-75%) and maximal inspiratory and expiratory pressure (MIP and MEP). Descriptive analysis was performed. Results: We evaluated 18 patients, mean age of 37.33 ± 11.23 years, height 1.65 ± 0.09 m, weight 125.92 ± 25.24 kg and BMI 46.34 ± 9 20 kg/m2 , SVC 100.64 ± 22.91%, FVC 102.04 ± 21.82%, FEV1 104.85 ± 22.16%, FEV1 /FVC 83.54 ± 6.63% and FEF25-75% 84.47 ± 25.74%, 99.75 ± 24.55 for MIP and MEP 102.12 ± 25.06 cmH2O. Conclusion: The bariatric surgery candidates had normal values for manovacuometry and spirometry.
