A leucemia mielóide aguda (LMA) acomete pacientes de todas as faixas etárias com freqüência aumentada em idosos. Nosso estado não apresenta registros sistemáticos da patologia, justificando-se desta forma o levantamento através dos centros de diagnóstico e tratamento, os quais concentram a maioria dos casos. Foram incluídos todos os pacientes com diagnóstico de LMA “de novo” levantados a partir dos registros dos centros de diagnóstico e tratamento da patologia no estado no período entre 1996 e 2000. Foram computados no período 532 pacientes (taxa estimada de 1,04 casos / 100.000 habitantes / ano). A idade média ao diagnóstico foi 41,0 anos e 46,6 % dos casos eram do sexo masculino. Houve distribuição semelhante nas 7 mesorregiões geográficas do estado. Em relação ao número de casos por faixa etária, observou-se uma taxa estimada em 0,5 – 1 caso / 100.000 habitantes até a faixa etária dos 45 anos, atingindo 3,5 casos / 100.000 habitantes na faixa etária igual ou superior a 70 anos. A sobrevida média considerando todos os casos foi de 17%, aumentando para 25% considerando a população abaixo de 60 anos e alcançando 40% na população entre 10 e 20 anos. Tais dados evidenciam uma distribuição semelhante por região, estimativa de incidência na faixa infantil semelhante a países desenvolvidos e bastante menor na população idosa. A mortalidade geral foi semelhante àquela relatada na literatura.

Esta dissertação, fruto de uma experiência pessoal e profissional com a arte e do interesse por estudos e ações na área da oncologia, consistiu numa pesquisa-intervenção baseada em fundamentos da fenomenologia e da arteterapia gestáltica, que teve a finalidade de identificar contribuições da arteterapia no cuidado de mulheres em tratamento do câncer de mama, a partir dos significados atribuídos pelas participantes à experiência com o fazer criativo. A importância desse estudo esteve relacionada à necessidade de ampliação de estratégias terapêuticas voltadas para a promoção da saúde de indivíduos em tratamento do câncer. Por isso foi levada em consideração a existência de fatores psicossociais geradores de conflitos e sofrimentos para as mulheres durante o período de diagnóstico e tratamento da doença, bem como a condição feminina de submissão e enfrentamento do câncer de mama durante a história. Além disso, o trabalho fez referência às funções terapêuticas da arte e a importância da arteterapia em oncologia. A pesquisa foi realizada no Núcleo de Acolhimento do Enfermo Egresso - NAEE, onde se aplicou a metodologia denominada de Oficina Criativa, constituída pelas etapas de sensibilização, expressão livre, elaboração da expressão, transposição da linguagem e avaliação. Para a coleta de dados foram utilizados os discursos e as criações das mulheres. Participaram 7 mulheres que estavam em tratamento para o câncer de mama, de 8 sessões de arteterapia, nas quais realizaram vivências corporais e atividades expressivas. A análise do tipo qualitativa constituiu-se com base nas expressões manifestas pelas informantes através da linguagem verbal e plástica durante a criação. O ambiente permeado pela escuta e acolhimento, favorecidos durante as oficinas, interpôs o processo terapêutico desta pesquisaintervenção, contribuindo para a resposta das mulheres em relação à experiência nas oficinas. Foi possível identificar uma riqueza de contribuições da arteterapia para o cuidado de mulheres com câncer de mama, no que se referiu a possibilidade de interação com o outro, ao desenvolvimento da capacidade de expressão, significação e ressignificação do vivido através do contato com o próprio potencial criativo e da aquisição de uma postura mais ativa das participantes para enfrentar as dificuldades da vida.

There can be several indicators of violence in society. However, in no other health unit such violence acquires visibility as in emergency. This study aimed to examine whether there is divergence between the history of medical consultation and diagnosis of physical aggressions in the emergency unit. A cross-sectional study was conducted in an emergency unit in the city of Araçatuba, state of São Paulo, Brazil, based on medical records, considering data on patients, lesions, history, diagnosis and treatment. Out of 133,537 visits, only 153 were recorded as physical aggressions, and 161 informed violence in the history of the consultation; 59.6% were male, 60.6% were between 20 and 44 years old. Excoriations, pain and injury predominated. There were no associations between state violence in the diagnosis and the characteristics of patients and visits (schedule, routing, gender, age). The conclusion is that in most cases violence reported in the history of the consultation was not mentioned in the diagnosis of injuries. The characteristics of care and patients were not related to the fact that professionals diagnosed the case as violence.

The 131I (radioactive iodine) is one of the most used radionuclides in nuclear medicine for diagnosis and treatment. The present study evaluates the dosimetric aspects related to radioiodine therapy after thyroidectomy in patients with thyroid cancer. The samples were studied with 50 patients undergoing treatment, by assessing the exposures of workers (nursing assistants, staff hygiene, medical and physical), the general public (accompanying and family members) and on the environment. To evaluate the workers, was made a survey of the environmental conditions of the room radioiodine and routines adopted by them during the treatment period. Estimating the dose equivalent per month for each employee, we observed that the maximum levels obtained for nursing assistants, the team of hygiene, medical and physicians were considered low in relation to the extent permitted by law. In order to assess the public, some situations have been suggested for the calculation of equivalent doses in which it was possible to verify the fundamental importance of isolating the patient in the 2 days first. Regarding the environment, the radioactive waste generated by patient had volume of 1.0 m3 and activity estimated at 0.91 mCi, taking a decay time for eliminating them about 75 days to reach the allowable value of 2 μCi / kg system of collecting garbage. Therefore, all radioactive waste removed from the patient's room should be sent to the warehouse for temporary storage of radioactive waste, located away from normal work areas

Introduction: The Keratocystic Odontogenic Tumor (KCOT) is a benign odontogenic tumor with an infiltrative and potentially aggressive behavior with high recurrence rates. The KCOT occurs more often in men than women, with a frequency of 2:1, being more frequent in the mandible with a predilection for the body and branch. Treatment of KCOT remains controversial. Treatment usually includes enucleation, marsupialization, peripheral ostectomy, curettage associated with Carnoy solution and resection. Objective: To report a case of a KCOT located in the mandible. Case report: male patient, 15 years, with a KCOT on the right side of the mandible treated by enucleation and peripheral ostectomy, with four years of preservation, with no signs of recurrence. Final Comments: The treatment by enucleation associated with peripheral ostectomy reduces the relapse rate, preserves anatomical structures and can avoid a second surgical procedure for reconstruction of bone defects generated in surgery en bloc resection.

The burning mouth syndrome (BMS) is a relevant pathology that has been defined as a chronic pain with difficult diagnosis and treatment. The prevalence of BMS is estimate to be 15% of the general population, being more common in the elderly and middle-aged. Characterized by a burning sensation in more than one area, more frequently on the two thirds of the tongue, on the anterior half of the hard palate and on the mucosa of the upper lip, the BMS is associated with clinical signs of normality and normal laboratory findings. For several studies the BMS etiology is controversial because it is multifactorial since it can be caused by local, neuropathic, psychological and/or systemic factors. These controversies make the diagnosis more difficult, especially if the dentist does not have knowledge about the syndrome. Thus, the aim of this paper is to present, by means of a literature review, the main features of BMS, indicating the procedures that may be useful for diagnosis, and also the available therapeutic modalities in order to increasing the knowledge of health professionals so that patients with BMS may benefit from appropriate treatment, support and professional confidence, always aiming to better quality of life.

The diagnosis of various diseases has become more accessible and accurate with the rapid development of imaging modalities aiming to assist in medical diagnosis, and thereby in veterinary medicine. Different diagnostic imaging modalities such as ultrasonography, computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging and scintigraphy can be performed to obtain information about thyroid diseases, each one with advantages and disadvantages, depending on the thyroid disease in question. Diagnostic imaging is a tool that not only assists in the diagnosis, but also helps treatment and assessment of prognosis of thyroid diseases. The aim of this article is to discuss the limitations and benefits of each diagnostic imaging modality available in the veterinary medical field, and also to present the newest diagnostic imaging modalities in order to maximize and make more accurate diagnosis of thyroid diseases.

The increasing in world population, with higher proportion of elderly, leads to an increase in the number of individuals with vision loss and cataracts are one of the leading causes of blindness worldwide. Cataract is an eye disease that is the partial or total opacity of the crystalline lens (natural lens of the eye) or its capsule. It can be triggered by several factors such as trauma, age, diabetes mellitus, and medications, among others. It is known that the attendance by ophthalmologists in rural and poor areas in Brazil is less than needed and many patients with treatable diseases such as cataracts are undiagnosed and therefore untreated. In this context, this project presents the development of OPTICA, a system of teleophthalmology using smartphones for ophthalmic emergencies detection, providing a diagnostic aid for cataract using specialists systems and image processing techniques. The images are captured by a cellphone camera and along with a questionnaire filled with patient information are transmitted securely via the platform Mobile SANA to a online server that has an intelligent system available to assist in the diagnosis of cataract and provides ophthalmologists who analyze the information and write back the patient’s report. Thus, the OPTICA provides eye care to the poorest and least favored population, improving the screening of critically ill patients and increasing access to diagnosis and treatment.
