O presente estudo teve como objetivo realizar a investigação molecular da infecção pelos Poliomavírus JC e BK em pacientes com Doença Renal Crônica (DRC) terminal, transplantados e em indivíduos sem DRC. Foram testadas 295 amostras de urina, que após a extração de DNA, foram submetidas à amplificação de um fragmento de 173 pb do gene do antígeno-T de Polyomavirus por meio da PCR seguida pela análise de RFLP, utilizando a endonuclease de restrição BamHI, na qual foi detectado 17,6% (52/295) de infecção por Polyomavirus, sendo 3,9% (4/102) nos pacientes com DRC, 30,5% (18/59) nos pacientes transplantados e 22,4% (30/134) nos assintomáticos. A prevalência da infecção pelo BKV foi de 88,9% (16/18) nos transplantados e de 10,0% (3/30) nos assintomáticos, não sendo detectada a infecção pelo BKV em pacientes com DRC. A prevalência de infecção pelo JCV foi de 3,9% (4/102) nos pacientes com DRC, de 11,1% (2/16) no transplantados e de 90,0% (27/30) nos assintomáticos. O risco de infecção por BKV foi determinada ser 72 vezes maior em pacientes transplantados do que em assintomáticos. A baixa frequência de infecção encontrada entre os pacientes com DRC pode estar relacionada ao fato de que esses pacientes apresentam uma elevada taxa de excreção de uréia na urina, assim como, baixo volume e densidade urinária, podem ser outros dois fatores contribuintes para a ausência de amplificação por estarem associados à baixa carga viral presente. De acordo com estes resultados, sugere-se que a investigação da infecção por Polyomavirus deve ser realizada, rotineiramente, nos pacientes pré e póstransplante, assim como nos doadores de órgãos, uma vez que a infecção por BKV tem sido associada com rejeição de enxerto em transplante de rins.

Renal nephroblastoma is a malignant tumor composed by embryonic tissue that affects mainly puppies. This works reports the occurrence of unilateral renal nephroblastoma in a puppy with four months. The diagnosis was obtained by histopathological examination of mass obtained by exploratory laparotomy, with realization of nephrectomy. The animal died at 15 days post-operatively by the presence of pulmonary metastases. The survival rate with surgical excision of the mass, with or without complementary therapies, can vary with the stage of disease.

Model Study: An experimental study Introduction: Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) refers to a syndromic diagnosis which leads to a progressive and irreversible loss of renal function. A hemodialysis patient may have limitations in functional capacity, pulmonary function and respiratory musclular strength impacting in quality of life. Objective: To evaluate the effects of an exercise program on pulmonary function, functional capacity, quality of life and pain in patients undergoing hemodialysis. Methodology: The study included 28 patients of both genders, women and men aged between 40 and 60 years undergoing dialysis at the Kidney Institute, Santa Casa de Misericordia in Presidente Prudente-SP. Primary outcomes included respiratory muscular strength measurements assessed by manovacuometry. The functional capacity was evaluated by a six minute walking test. A life quality questionnaire was applied to evaluate quality of life (SF36-KDQOL). Lung function was evaluated by spirometry. Pain was assessed by a visual analogue scale. The exercise program consisted of training 3 times a week for 40 minutes on hemodialysis during eight weeks. At the end of the program all patients were reassessed. Results: There was no significant difference in the values of FVC and FEV1 before and after the exercise program as well as the index Tiffenau. The value of post MIP was significantly higher than the value obtained in the pre program. For variable MEP no significant difference was found. Functional capacity evaluations showed that there were no significant differences (p> 0.05). The evaluation of quality of life, about the domains of specific areas of CKD showed statistical significance when comparing the list of symptoms and problems with overloading of renal disease and professional role. Indicators related to pain were significantly reduced after the program (P <0.05). Discussion: A chronic kidney patient faces complex situations of physical, social and financial aspects. Although no statistically significant results were found in all variables, the study corroborates to others found in the literature, which suggests that an exercise program can be positive for this population. Conclusion: Although lung capacity and functional capacity did not submit changes to the end of the study, reduced levels of pain, fatigue and dyspnea suggest improvement in functional performance after exercise programs.

Hepatic encephalopathy (HE) is a functional disorder of the central nervous system (CNS) associated with liver failure, either end-stage chronic liver disease or fulminant hepatic failure. Its pathogenesis remains complex and poorly understood. In view of recent advances in the management of HE, the Brazilian Society of Hepatology endorsed a monothematic meeting regarding HE in order to gather experts in the field to discuss related data and to draw evidence-based recommendations concerning: management of HE and intracranial hypertension in FHF, treatment of episodic HE in cirrhosis, controversies in the management of EH including difficult to treat cases and diagnostic and treatment challenges for minimal HE. The purpose of this review is to summarize the lectures and recommendations made by the panel of experts of the Brazilian Society of Hepatology.
