Evaluation of fecal microorganisms of children with cleft palate before and after palatoplasty

This study isolated and quantified intestinal bacteria of children with cleft palate before and after palatoplasty. A prospective study was conducted from May 2007 to September 2008 on 18 children with cleft palate, aged one to four years, of both genders, attending a tertiary cleft center in Brazil for palatoplasty, to analyze the effect of surgical palate repair on the concentration of anaerobes Bacteroides sp, Bifidobacterium sp and microaerophiles Lactobacillus sp in feces of infants with cleft palate before and 24 hours after treatment with cefazolin for palatoplasty. There was significant reduction of Lactobacillus sp (p < 0.002), Bacteroides sp (p < 0.001) and Bifidobacterium sp (p = 0.021) after palatoplasty, revealing that surgery and utilization of cefazolin significantly influenced the fecal microbiota comparing collections before and after surgery. However, due to study limitations, it was not possible to conclude that other isolated factors, such as surgical stress, anesthetics and other medications used in palatoplasty might have a significant influence on the microbiota. Considering the important participation of the intestinal microbiota on both local and systemic metabolic and immunological activities of the host, professionals should be attentive to the possible influence of these changes in patients submitted to cleft repair.

Desempenho adesivo de sistemas de união à dentina aplicados in vivo e in vitro: efeito da pressão intrapulpar e profundidade dentinária

O objetivo do presente estudo foi investigar a influência da pressão intrapulpar e da profundidade dentinária sobre o desempenho adesivo de dois agentes de união à dentina, Single Bond (3M ESPE, St. Paul, MN, EUA) e Clearfil SE Bond (Kuraray, Tokyo, Japão), aplicados in vitro e in vivo. Quarenta e oito prémolares superiores hígidos foram selecionados e os pares pertencentes aos mesmos pacientes foram aleatoriamente distribuídos em 4 grupos experimentais de acordo com o sistema adesivo e a pressão intrapulpar, presente ou ausente. Dos dentes pertencentes ao mesmo par, um foi tratado in vivo e o outro in vitro. A ausência ou presença de pressão intra-pulpar foi determinada in vivo pelo uso de anestésicos locais com ou sem vasoconstritor, respectivamente. In vitro, os dentes foram mantidos sob pressão hidrostática de 15 cm de água por 24 horas. Cavidades de classe I foram preparadas e os sistemas adesivos aplicados de acordo com a recomendação dos fabricantes, seguidos da restauração incremental em resina composta. Para os dentes tratados in vitro, os mesmos procedimentos restauradores foram realizados após 6 meses de armazenagem em solução contendo timol 0,1%. Espécimes com área de secção transversal de 1 mm2 foram obtidos e submetidos ao ensaio mecânico de microtração. In vivo, ambos os sistemas adesivos apresentaram desempenho adesivo comparável, enquanto in vitro, o sistema Single Bond foi superior ao sistema Clearfil SE Bond. Esse último não foi influenciado por nenhuma das variáveis estabelecidas no estudo, ou seja, aplicação in vitro ou in vitro, presença de pressão intrapulpar e profundidade em dentina. O sistema Single Bond aplicado sob pressão intrapulpar positiva sofreu variação significante de resistência de união em função da profundidade da dentina, ou seja, em dentina profunda seu desempenho adesivo...

Estudio histológico del processo de reparación alveolar después de la aplicación tópica de la solucioón anestésica prilocaína 3 % con felipressina o,o3 ui/ml

The aim of this study was to evaluate the local anesthetic solution, composed by Prilocaine 3% and felipressin 0,03 UI/ml, influence on the alveolar repair process in rats after dental extraction. This research was previously approved by the Ethic Committee in Research of the Masters Degree Program in Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery of the Marília University (UNIMAR), Marília, São Paulo, Brazil. It was an experimental, randomly controlled study, with bifactorial analysis (group control versus experimental group, in function of the postoperative times (2 X 4)). For the accomplishment of this study 32 rats were used (Rattus norvegicus, albinus, Wistar), males, adults, weighing between 280 and 320 grams. The animals were selected and divided into Group I (control) and Group II (Citocain 3%® - Prilocaine 3% with felipressin 0,03UI/ml) with 16 rats each; being four animals of the Group I and four of the Group II, destined to the euthanasia in the postoperative periods of 3rd, 7th, 15th and 24th days. The histological analysis with base in the developed methodology, allowed us to conclude that the anesthetic solution of Citocain 3%® applied with gauze compress on the surgical dental wound, produced tissue events that committed the basic biological principles, that are responsible for the regeneration of the gingival epithelium and the alveolar process repair in rats. The Group I presented better results in the alveolar repair when compared to the Group II.

The Lanz® endotracheal tube decreases tracheal injury in dogs

Purpose: To determine, in dogs anesthetized with nitrous oxide (N2O), whether the endotracheal tube (ETT) cuffed with a Lanz® pressure regulating valve decreases the tracheal consequences of tracheal intubation. Methods: Sixteen mixed-breed dogs were allocated to two groups according to the ETT used: Control group (n = 8) - Rüsch ETT, and Lanz group (n = 8) - ETT with Lanz® pressure regulating valve. The ETT cuffs in both groups were inflated with air to an intracuff pressure of 30 cm H2O. Anesthesia was induced and maintained with pentobarbitone and N2O (1.5 L·min-1) and O2 (1 L·min-1). ETT cuff pressures were measured before (control) and 60, 120, and 180 min during N2O administration. The dogs were sacrificed, and biopsy specimens from four predetermined areas of the tracheal mucosa in contact with the ETT were collected for light and scanning electron microscopy (SM) examination. Results: Cuff pressures in the Control group were higher than in the Lanz group at all time points studied (P < 0.001), with an increase over time only in the Control group (P < 0.001). Median neutrophilic inflammatory infiltration values of the epithelial surface, and in the subepithelial layer in contact with the cuff, were higher in the Control group as compared to the Lanz group (3.0 vs 1.0 and 3.0 vs 1.5 respectively) (P < 0.05). On SM examination, median histological grades were higher in the Control group compared to Lanz group (2.9 vs 1.9 respectively), (P < 0.05). Conclusions: The Lanz® ETT decreases tracheal mucosal injury in dogs.
