Contribuição das moléculas de antígeno de histocompatibilidade leucocitária (HLA) para a contratura de Dupuytren em uma população do Sudeste do Brasil

Objetivo:O objetivo deste estudo foi investigar o fenótipo do HLA em pacientes com contratura de Dupuytren (CD) para verificar a correlação desses alelos com os fatores de risco para o desenvolvimento da CD na população brasileira.Métodos:Este foi um estudo de caso-controle de 25 pacientes com CD e 443 indivíduos saudáveis sem histórico de doenças associadas ao HLA. As tipagens classe I e classe II do HLA foram feitas utilizando o método iniciador de sequências específicas da reação em cadeia da polimerase.Resultados:O fenótipo HLA-B*18 foi observado em 32% dos pacientes e 10,5% do grupo controle. Contudo, os valores de p não permaneceram significativos após correção.Discussão:Apesar de termos observado um aumento na tendência de os pacientes com CD terem o alelo HLA-B*18, os resultados não foram estatisticamente significativos após correção. Esse alelo foi maior em pacientes de etnia italiana e/ou espanhola, locais com frequências superiores a 18% e 14%, respectivamente. São necessárias investigações adicionais com uma coorte maior de pacientes com CD para confirmar o possível papel do HLA nessa doença.

Transverse maxillary and mandibular growth during and after Bionator therapy: study with metallic implants

INTRODUCTION: This study evaluated posteroanterior cephalograms before and after treatment and long term follow-up of Class II division 1 patients treated with bionator. OBJECTIVE: The objective was to demonstrate the transverse growth of maxilla and mandible during and after bionator therapy. METHODS: Measurement of transverse dimensions between posterior maxillary and mandibular implants, as well as the distances between the buccal, gonial and antegonial points were recorded. Measurements were analyzed at three periods: T1 = before bionator therapy, T2 = after bionator therapy and T3 = 5.74 years after T2. RESULTS: There was statistically significant transverse increase due to growth and/or treatment for all variables, except for the distance between the anterior maxillary implants. CONCLUSIONS: During the study period only the anterior maxillary area did not show transverse growth.

Predictors of Beta-Blocker Intolerance and Mortality in Patients After Acute Coronary Syndrome

Purpose: To investigate the predictors of intolerance to beta-blockers treatment and the 6-month mortality in hospitalized patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS).Methods: This was a single-center, prospective, and longitudinal study including 370 consecutive ACS patients in Killip class I or II. BBs were prescribed according to international guidelines and withdrawn if intolerance occurred. The study was approved by the institutional ethics committee of our university. Statistics: the clinical parameters evaluated at admission, and the related intolerance to BBs and death at 6 months were analyzed using logistic regression (p<0.05) in PATIENTS.Results: BB intolerance was observed in 84 patients and was associated with no prior use of statins (OR: 2.16, 95%CI: 1.26-3.69, p= 0.005) and Killip class II (OR: 2.5, 95%CI: 1.30-4.75, p=0.004) in the model adjusted for age, sex, blood pressure, and renal function. There was no association with ST-segment alteration or left anterior descending coronary artery plaque. Intolerance to BB was associated with the greatest risk of death (OR: 4.5, 95%CI: 2.15-9.40, p<0.001).Conclusions: After ACS, intolerance to BBs in the first 48 h of admission was associated to non previous use of statin and Killip class II and had a high risk of death within 6 months.

Estudo da associaçao entre o Padrão face longa, o hábito de respiração bucal e as características intrabucais

Aim: to evaluate the association of the long face pattern and the mouth breathing, correlating them with the intraoral characteristics. Methods: the sample was composed of 60 Caucasian Brazilian descendents patients, divided in two groups according to the subjective of their facial pattern. The patients were clinically evaluated to determine their respiratory pattern and the diagnosed of malocclusion. The lateral teleradiographies were drawn in standard to verification facial cephalometric pattern. Chi-Square analysis evaluated the association between subjective facial pattern and type of breathing; facial pattern subjective and cephalometric facial pattern. It was also the chi-square with yates correction to evaluate the associations between subjective facial pattern, type of breathing and posterior cross bite; facial subjective standard, type of breathing and anterior open bite; facial pattern between subjective, type breathing and type of Angle´s malocclusion. Results: it showed that long face pattern (group 1) was associated with mouth breathing habit and facial cephalometric standard. Moreover, the long-face pattern (group 1) presented that mouth breathing was associated with a posterior crossbite and Angle Class II malocclusion. Conclusion: the long face pattern - evaluated with subjective facial analyses - was associated with mouth breathing. The long face pattern and patients with mouth breathing was associated with a posterior crossbite and Class II Angle's malocclusion.
