Doenças infecciosas em crianças pré-escolares brasileiras assistidas em creches

The scope of this article is to analyze the prevalence and factors associated with the development of infectious diseases that affect children in daycare centers, namely respiratory infections, diarrheal disease and parasitic infections. Bibliographic research was conducted in the MEDLINE, LILACS and SciELO databases, and observational studies were included. 129 studies were identified, of which 21 were considered relevant to this study, namely two longitudinal and 19 cross-sectional studies. The systematization of the reviewed studies highlighted: i) the presence of intestinal parasites was the main outcome analyzed, followed by respiratory infections; ii) only one study investigated the occurrence of diarrheal disease; iii) the Giardia lamblia was the most prevalent parasitosis; iv) the variables that were most often associated with the development of intestinal parasitosis were child age, family income and maternal education; v) the attendance at daycare centers was a risk factor for intestinal parasites and respiratory infections. Respiratory and parasitic infections are major problems in institutionalized children in daycare centers. The reduction of such diseases involves a complex web of socio-economic, sanitation and daycare center infrastructure aspects.

Associação entre exposição ao material particulado e internações por doenças respiratórias em crianças

The aim of this study was to estimate the association between exposure to particulate matter less than 2.5 microns in diameter and hospitalization for respiratory diseases. It was an ecological time series study with daily indicators of hospitalization for respiratory diseases in children up to 10 years, living in Piracicaba, SP, Southeastern Brazil, between August 1, 2011 and July 31, 2012. We used generalized additive model for the Poisson regression. The relative risks were RR = 1.008; 95%CI 1.001; 1.016 for lag 1 and RR = 1.009; 95%CI 1.001; 1.017 for lag 3. The increment of 10 mu g/m(3) in particulate matter less than 2.5 microns in diameter implies increase in relative risk between 7.9 and 8.6 percentage points. In conclusion, exposure to particulate matter less than 2.5 microns in diameter was associated with hospitalization for respiratory diseases in children.

Efeitos dentoesqueléticos do tratamento da classe II utilizando o aparelho de Herbst associados à mecânica Straight-wire

This study compared the effect of the treatment protocol for correcting Class Il malocclusion using the Herbst appliance followed by full fixed Straigh-wire mechanics, in two populations, one Brazilian and one of North American origin As a untreated control sample the data from the University of Michigan Elementary and Secondary School Growth Study (UMGS) was used. Our sample was composed of 12 males and 12 females, with initial mean age of 12 years 7 months and final mean ages of 15 years and 3 months. The Michigan patients comprised 21 females and 7 males, with an initial mean age of 11 years and 9 months and final mean age of 14 years and 4 months. The control sample was paired in number, sex and age to the treated Michigan sample. ln both treated groups, lateral cephalometric radiographs were obtained before the Herbst appliance was cemented and at the end of the fixed appliance phase, The first comparison involved the Brazil group and the untreated controls, which demonstrated that the association of the Herbst appliance followed by fixed Straight-wire appliances provoked positive effects on the dentofacial complex, improving pre-existing maxillo-mandibular relationships, besides increasing dentoalveolar compensations which contributed to correct the malocclusion. The second comparison, involved the Brazl1ian and North-American patients treated with the same protocol. Although the pre-treatment comparison showed that the two groups were not similar in all aspects, they presented almost identical therapeutic modifications, which indicate that the effect of' treatment was very similar. These results point out that, in Class ll treatment, the combination of Herbst/Straight-wire mechanics produce consistent and systematic effects, correcting or minimizing possible skeletal imbalances

Doenças metabólicas do periparto em bovinos leiteiros

Peripartum or Transition Period is, generally, defined as the period between three weeks pre-calving and three weeks after calving. It is a critical and crucial stage to the cow’s health and to economic profitability during the lactation. During this phase the cows experience several changes that prepare them to calve and milk yield. These changes contribute to metabolic disorders’ incidence, and can lead to reproductive function and milk yield reduction, and increase the herd’s disposal. This paper aimed to review the peripartum metabolic diseases, which includes Ketosis, Hypocalcemia, Hepatic Steatosis, Ruminal Acidosis and Lameness

Principais métodos terapêuticos na tendinite eqüina

Most athletic horses nowadays suffer injuries on their locomotor system, needing a long period of rest during the year, meaning a big economic loss. Because of that, this kind of injury has become extremely important for the Veterinary Medicine. Among this injuries, tendinitis of the flexors tendons must be mentioned, since its reparation is essential for the animal return to exercise. Many methods of treatment for this injury have been employed, but few have provided satisfactory results. So the objective of this study is to analyze the present concepts of equine tendinitis to better understand its mechanism, adequate treatment and prevention

Obtenção de forma farmacêutica sólida de extrato etanólico de Casearia sylvestris Swartz

A espécie vegetal Casearia sylvestris é uma planta nativa do Brasil e de uso tradicional, sendo utilizada popularmente para combate de doenças do trato digestório. Seus extratos e mesmo substâncias purificadas apresentaram diversas atividades farmacológicas, sendo a mais eficaz a ação antiulcerogênica. Neste trabalho, desenvolveram-se granulados a partir do extrato etanólico de folhas de C. sylvestris. A metodologia envolve métodos de extração de droga vegetais, granulação via úmida e ensaios de caracterização do perfil micromerítico dos granulados

Ultrasonografia Doppler na reprodução de pequenos animais

The Doppler ultrasound allows the assessment of blood flow and the differentiate vessels according to each spectral pattern, location and organ that irrigate, helping the examinations and disease diagnosis. The main methods used are Pulsed Doppler, Color Doppler and Power Doppler. In Brazil veterinary medicine, it shows progress since 1990, but its use is limited by the equipment high cost, the need for operator experience and patient cooperation. There are studies in obstetrics and reproduction of dogs and cats, such as evaluation of the testicular vasculature, including the use of contrast material, and attempts to evaluate prostate in healthy dogs or pathological conditions (cancer and testicular torsion , orchitis and benign prostatic hyperplasia; estrous cycle monitoring, evaluation of irrigation in follicles and corpus luteum, uterus and breasts (mammary tumors) in bitches; monitoring pregnancy from the assessment of maternal, fetal and placental hemodynamics, both in dogs as in cats, and aspirations for early detection of pregnancy in dogs. However, new studies are still required, given the lack of these species, especially cats

Efeito agudo de uma sessão de exercícios aeróbios e resistidos na pressão arterial de indivíduos normotensos e hipertensos pertencentes ao Programa de Atividade Física na UBS e PSF do município de Rio Claro-SP

A hipertensão arterial (HA) é fator de risco para o desenvolvimento de doenças cardiovasculares, uma forma de prevenção seria a adoção de um estilo de vida mais ativo.O estudo tem como objetivo verificar se uma sessão de exercícios resistidos e aeróbios provoca efeito hipotensivo em indivíduos normotensos e hipertensos sendo a P.A aferida antes e depois dos exercícios. Participaram do estudo 29 indivíduos, normo e hipertensos, com idade média de 54,96 anos ( ± 9,56 ), todos participantes do projeto de atividade física para diabéticos e hipertensos, desenvolvido pelo NAFES da UNESP – Rio Claro. A aula constituiu-se de aquecimento e alongamento (10 min), parte principal (40 min) dividida por: Caminhada (10 min), exercícios resistidos de membro superior utilizando halteres de um quilo (10 min), caminhada (10 min) e exercícios resistidos de membros inferiores com peso corporal (10 min), finalizando com volta calma(10 min). A Pressão Arterial foi aferida através de aparelho digital de pulso Fuzzy LOGIC, Model 3001, BioLand em repouso(M1), ao termino(M2), 30 minutos pós-exercícios(M3) e 4 horas após o termino dos exercícios(M4). Os dados foram analisados por meio do ANOVA para análises repetidas, através do programa Statistic 7.0 e significância de p<0,05. A analise estatística mostrou que na pressão sistólica não houve diferença significante do M1(137,6 ±17,1mmHg) para o M3(133,9 ±18,8mmHg) enquanto que na pressão diastólica observou-se diferença significativa do M1(84,7 ±9,3mmHg) para o M4(80,7 ±11.2mmHg). Conclusão: Houve efeito hipotensor após exercícios apenas na pressão diastólica, já na pressão sistólica não ocorreu mudança significativa embora todos os valores pós exercícios tenham diminuído, tanot na sistólica quanto na diastólica.
