Incidência de empiema pleural nos ferimentos tóraco-abdominais

OBJETIVO: Os ferimentos penetrantes com comprometimento simultâneo das cavidades torácica e abdominal (FTA), além da dificuldade diagnóstica, merecem especial atenção em relação à conduta adotada para o tratamento do espaço pleural. O objetivo do presente estudo foi identificar os principais fatores relacionados à incidência de empiema pleural em pacientes com ferimentos penetrantes localizados na transição toracoabdominal. MÉTODO: Utilizando-se o modelo estatístico de regressão logística múltipla, os autores analisaram 110 pacientes com ferida toracoabdominal penetrante, submetidos à drenagem pleural fechada e laparotomia. A complicação empiema pleural foi estudada quanto à incidência e fatores envolvidos. Considerou-se o nível alfa igual a 0,05. RESULTADOS: Do total, 91 (82,7%) pacientes eram do sexo masculino e 19 (17,3%) do feminino. A faixa etária situou-se entre 13 e 63 anos. Os FTA foram causados por projétil de arma de fogo em 60 casos (54,5%) e por arma branca em 50 casos (45,5%). O empiema pleural incidiu em quatro (3,6%) dos pacientes estudados. Na análise estatística a incidência de empiema pleural esteve relacionada com: lesão de víscera oca (OR=3,1386, p=0.4005); lesão do lado esquerdo do diafragma (OR= 12,98, p=0,1178) e choque hemorrágico à admissão (OR=23,9639, p=0,0250). CONCLUSÕES: A chance da ocorrência de empiema pleural foi cerca de três vezes maior em pacientes com lesão de víscera oca e, de 13 vezes se a esta lesão estava associada à lesão do lado esquerdo do diafragma; aumentando para 24 vezes se estes pacientes apresentavam, concomitantemente, estado de choque hemorrágico à admissão.

Avanços na criopreservação do sêmen ovino I: diluidores e crioprotetores

The effectiveness of using frozen sheep semen in artificial insemination programs requires the development of extenders and freezing protocols that will increase pregnancy rate of inseminated females. This work aimed to survey the main extenders, additives and external and internal cryoprotectants that have been employed to improve the maintenance levels of sperm parameters after the freezing-thawing process. Better rates of post-thawing sheep sperm viability may be obtained with changes in the freezing extender composition, whether by the adjustment of its components or by introducing additives that inhibit the occurrence of sperm changes during the cryopreservation process. Thus, the possible changes proposed must take into consideration the intrinsic characteristics of ram semen and the individual variability among animals. It is important to emphasize that the sperm cryopreservation effectiveness requires that all process steps are conducted in an integrated manner, to maximize the fertility rate of frozen ram semen.

Desempenho de escolares rurais em narrativas escritas e possíveis relações com variáveis de perfil

The goal of this research was to characterize written stories, produced by students, without complaint of language development (oral and written), from pictographic support. In a specific way, it has been searched, in those stories, elements that could grant coherence, applying that performance with the participants’ profile variables. It was characterized as a descriptive-exploratory study, held at a rural municipal school in the State of Parana. Twenty-one (21) students of both genders and ages between seven and nine years old have participated in this study. Data collection consisted of two narratives requests: one oral, after being released, to the child, four pictures placed in sequence to form a story, and one written. This writing production had been taken for the analysis. The results have indicated that most children (71.42%) managed to produce coherent stories, seventeen (80%) in story 1 and thirteen (61%) in story 2. As to the relation of that coherence with the students’ profile in story 1, there has been no statistically significant association, for none of the analyzed variables (gender, age and education), whereas there has been a statistically significant association with gender in story 2 (p-value 0.027). It is considered that the use of the pictographic support in developing stories have been confirmed as a facilitating strategy for its construction, for it has enabled the production of coherent narratives.

Corrupción en el senado brasileño: síntoma de una crisis de larga duración

La crisis del Senado brasileño, iniciada con las acusaciones de corrupción contra su presidente, se propagó al Poder Legislativo e incluso al Ejecutivo. El artículo sostiene que se trata del reflejo de una crisis general de los partidos políticos y de los parlamentos modernos, resultado de las presiones combinadas del decisionismo gubernamental y la espontaneidad social, que limitan la capacidad de acción del Legislativo. En el fondo, esto es una consecuencia de una situación de malestar institucional más amplia, una crisis de subjetividad política, en la que los sistemas políticos se vuelven incapaces de interactuar con la cultura y la sociedad producidas por los nuevos términos de la vida globalizada.

Combinação de técnicas para tratamento cirúrgico de fratura do complexo zigomático-maxilar: relato de caso

The zygomatic-maxillary complex due to its projection framed as one of the areas hardest hit by injuries, as well as the nasal bones. Component important in this context, the zygomatic arch fracture is under the direct action of forces due to its structure fragile, resulting in loss of normal convex curvature. Therefore, it is aimed to report a clinical case of male patient, who had leucoderma zygomatic bone fracture using access transcutaneous and intra-oral fracture reduction body of zygoma and zygomatic arch. In addition to evidence combination of closed and open techniques for solving the case. The technique provided the patient excellent cosmetic and functional results.

Efeito do ácido tranexâmico associado à cola de fibrina sobre o reparo ósseo: estudo histológico em ratos

The bone repair process is controlled by complex molecular mechanisms that involve systemic and local factors. Fibrin glue is derived from human plasma and mimics the final pathway of coagulation network. Tranexamic acid inhibits fibrinolysis and prevents or decreases the formation of degradation products of fibrin and fibrinogen. The purpose of this study was to evaluate histologically in rats the effect of tranexamic acid associated with the fibrin glue on bone healing. The experiment used 60 (n = 5) male rats in: GI: Control, GII: fibrin glue, GIII tranexamic acid and GIV /fibrin glue/tranexamic acid. Bone defect (2.5mm diameter) was created in right tibia. The animals were euthanized at 7,14 and 30 days postoperatively, and the pieces were processed with hematoxylin and eosin. The results showed at 7 days post-operative surgical cavity filled with dense connective tissue rich in fibroblasts, permeated by delicate neoformed bone trabeculae in percentage of 70-80% for GI, GII and GIII and GIV to 94.8%. At 14 days post-operative newly formed bone was found between 75-85% for GI, GII and GIII and percentage above 95% for GIV. At 30 days postoperative GI and GIV showed 95-100% of mature bone tissue; GII and GIII in percentage close to 80-90%. Based on the results and methodology is concluded that fibrin / tranexamic acid glue association has positive action on bone repair.

Fasceíte necrotizante: relato de dois casos

Necrotizing fasciitis is a rare dermatopathy that promotes subcutaneous tissue damage, associated to substantial morbidity and mortality if treatment is not initiated at the beginning of the condition. The objective of the present study is to report the occurrence of two cases of necrotizing fasciitis, one in a miniature female Pinscher and the other one in a female Poodle, both attended at the Veterinary Hospital of FMVZ/Unesp-Botucatu. The animals presented ulcerated, erythematous lesions with secretion and points of necrosis along fascial planes. Bacterial culture was positive for Streptococcus spp. The animals were treated with enrofloxacin, associated to topical cleaning of the lesions with saline solution and triclosan-based soap and rifampicin spray. Both animals presented total remission of lesions after approximately 15 days of treatment. The present report aims to alert veterinary clinicians to the severity of Streptococcus spp infections.

Qualidade das medidas antropométricas produzidas em unidades de atenção básica à saúde da região de Botucatu-SP, Brasil

The aim of this study was to evaluate the quality of weight measurements produced in Primary Health Care Centers in Botucatu and surroundings. 14 Health Care Centers were included, all of them located in four towns in the area of Botucatu (4,555; 5,656; 18,761 and 128,397 inhabitants). General conditions and scale calibration conditions found in those Health Care Centers were evaluated. In order to evaluate the weight accuracy obtained by the local team, 10 adult users of each Center were addressed by the rater during the service routine in order to get a new weight evaluation, immediately after the measurement made by the team. The statistic method applied for checking the weight measurement held in the Heath Care Center and the scales accuracy was the measurement error technique (MET). The results have showed that out of 19 scales, 6 of them overestimated the weight by 50 grams, 1 of them underestimated the weight by 200 grams and the others were accurate. Evaluated as a group, the result of the scale MET was 44.3g. Regarding the conformity of the measures obtained by the MET of the adults weighing in the Health Care Centers compared to the ones obtained by the researcher, the expected result was obtained in only one Center (< 100g). The results have showed data compromise, rather due to lack of health team training than due to the conditions of the equipment used for the measurement.
