O presente trabalho discorre acerca da Tuberculose Pulmonar, aborda os conceitos básicos desse tema, a respeito das informações sobre o perfil dos pacientes do Distrito de Cariré, no Estado do Ceará, Brasil. Tenciona-se compartilhar informações que possam demonstrar e orientar na busca de alternativas para o tratamento adequado e identificar as causas associadas a esta doença. A tuberculose é infectocontagiosa causada por uma bactéria que afeta principalmente os pulmões, mas também podem ocorrer em outros órgãos do corpo, como ossos, rins e meninges (membranas que envolvem o cérebro). A tuberculose no geral é causada por uma infecção por Mycobacterium tuberculosisouBacilo de Koch (BK). Outras espécies de mico bactérias também podem causar a tuberculose, tais como mycobacteriumbovis, africanum e microti.. No presente trabalho, realizou-se a análise e interpretação dos dados coletados referentes aos casos de Tuberculose Pulmonar obtidos a traves das Fichas de Notificação , Prontuários dos pacientes e Entrevistas realizadas com o objetivo de promover um levantamento das necessidades de saúde no Município de Cariré, e possibilidades de intervenção educativa em saúde para a integração dos serviços na ampliação do acesso dos sintomáticos respiratórios aos serviços de saúde, por o Programa Saúde da Família, uma vez que este é apontado como um importante meio operacional. Nesse sentido, este trabalho analisa também a importância da correta aplicação dos serviços do profissional de saúde da família no tratamento dessa doença, evidenciando, portanto, a sua importância para o tratamento. Reconhece-se que as ações de educação, informação e comunicação, na perspectiva da promoção da saúde, são primordiais para a prevenção e o reconhecimento da tuberculose, com vistas à detecção precoce e ao tratamento oportuno dos casos, bem como para contribuir com a diminuição da transmissão dessa doença nas comunidades.

A tuberculose é uma doença infecto-contagiosa constituindo-se ainda um sério problema de saúde pública no Brasil, devido à sua crescente incidência em diferentes grupos populacionais e pelo maior número de mortes entre todas as outras doenças infecto-contagiosas. Esse fato é preocupante porque se trata de uma doença evitável e curável, com tratamento específico. O objetivo desta investigação é criar e verificar a efetividade de um método de intervenção educativa sobre tuberculoses nos Agentes Comunitários de Saúde no município de Ipaporanga – CE, no mês de Abril do ano 2015. Será realizado um estudo qualitativo, experimental de intervenção educativa no Posto de Saúde da Sede de Ipaporanga, Ceará, no mês de abril. O universo será composto pelo total dos Agentes Comunitários de Saúde do Posto de Saúde da Sede de Ipaporanga, Ceará, aos quais será aplicado um questionário, principal fonte para a obtenção de dados da pesquisa. Para a execução do estudo em uma fase inicial se terá comunicação com os Agentes Comunitários de Saúde, a fim de envolvê-los no presente inquérito, o que ficará validado através de um documento que será assinado como prova de sua vontade para participar do estudo. Esta pesquisa será realizada em três etapas: diagnóstico, intervenção e avaliação. O instrumento de coleta de dados utilizado neste estudo será um questionário elaborado pela autora do estudo. Todas as informações utilizadas neste estudo serão mantidas sob os princípios da máxima confiabilidade, o uso dele será apenas para fins científicos. Espera - se que a intervenção educativa seja eficaz e após sua aplicação, melhorem os conhecimentos que os Agentes Comunitários de Saúde têm sobre a tuberculose.

to investigate the pulmonary response to exercise of non-morbidly obese adolescents, considering the gender. a prospective cross-sectional study was conducted with 92 adolescents (47 obese and 45 eutrophic), divided in four groups according to obesity and gender. Anthropometric parameters, pulmonary function (spirometry and oxygen saturation [SatO2]), heart rate (HR), blood pressure (BP), respiratory rate (RR), and respiratory muscle strength were measured. Pulmonary function parameters were measured before, during, and after the exercise test. BP and HR were higher in obese individuals during the exercise test (p = 0.0001). SatO2 values decreased during exercise in obese adolescents (p = 0.0001). Obese males had higher levels of maximum inspiratory and expiratory pressures (p = 0.0002) when compared to obese and eutrophic females. Obese males showed lower values of maximum voluntary ventilation, forced vital capacity, and forced expiratory volume in the first second when compared to eutrophic males, before and after exercise (p = 0.0005). Obese females had greater inspiratory capacity compared to eutrophic females (p = 0.0001). Expiratory reserve volume was lower in obese subjects when compared to controls (p ≤ 0,05). obese adolescents presented changes in pulmonary function at rest and these changes remained present during exercise. The spirometric and cardiorespiratory values were different in the four study groups. The present data demonstrated that, in spite of differences in lung growth, the model of fat distribution alters pulmonary function differently in obese female and male adolescents.

OBJETIVE: Investigate the cardiopulmonary responses of one strength training session in young women. METHOD: Twenty-three women aged between 18 and 29 years participated in this study. All the volunteers were submitted to the following tests: cardiopulmonary and one-repetition maximum (1-RM). The strength training protocol had emphasis on muscular hypertrophy, three sets from eight to twelve repetitions under 70% of 1-RM, with a one minute thirty-second break between sets. During the training session, the cardiopulmonary variables were measured with a metabolic gas analyzer and a telemetry module. RESULTS: The results of the oxygen consumption in the training session were from 8.43 + 1.76 ml/kg/min and of the heart rate of 108.08 + 15.26 bpm. The results of the oxygen consumption and of the heart rate in the training were lower (p < 0.01) than in the ventilatory threshold and of the oxygen consumption and the heart rate reserves. CONCLUSION: The obtained data show that the present protocol of strength training provided low overload to the cardiopulmonary system of young women.

Multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1 (MEN1) is an autosomal dominant hereditary cancer syndrome characterized mostly by parathyroid, enteropancreatic, and anterior pituitary tumors. We present a case of an 8-year-old boy referred because of hypoglycemic attacks. His diagnosis was pancreatic insulinoma. Paternal grandmother died due to repeated gastroduodenal ulcerations and a paternal aunt presented similar manifestations. At a first evaluation, the father presented only gastric ulceration but subsequently developed hyperparathyroidism and lung carcinoid tumor. During almost 15 years of follow-up, three brothers and the index case presented hyperparathyroidism and hyperprolactinemia. Molecular study showed a G to A substitution in intron 4, at nine nucleotides upstream of the splicing acceptor site, causing a splicing mutation. All affected members of the family have the same mutation. Paternal grandmother and aunt were not studied and the mother does not carry any mutation. MEN1 is a rare condition that requires permanent medical assistance. Early clinical and genetic identification of affected individuals is essential for their own surveillance and also for genetic counseling.

The recombinant human growth hormone (rhGH) can improve weight gain, physical growth, clinical and lung in cystic fibrosis (CF). However, the routine use, although promising, is not established in the literature. The objective of this study was to assess the benefits of rhGH in children and adolescents with CF. We conducted a systematic review in the database PubMed, Lilacs, SciELO and Cochrane, in the period 2000-2010, using the keywords: cystic fibrosis, growth hormone, children and adolescents. We found 77 articles and included 11 randomized controlled trials, with 290 children and adolescents with CF. The short-term use (1-24 months) of rhGH improved the height, weight, growth rate, bone mineral content and components of pulmonary function. Adverse effects, like diabetes, were not observed in the studies. The short-term use of rhGH improved growth and body composition in patients with CF.

From December-1965 to November-1969, 95 hydrocephalic infants have been operated upon using ventriculoperitoneal shunt with valve (88 cases with a Spitz-Holter valve, 6 cases with a Hakim valve and one case with a Pudenz-Heyer valve). Up to the present time (December, 1970) a total of 54 children are alive with a compensated hydrocephalus and 9 patients died, being impossible to follow-up the 32 remaining cases. The use of the ventriculoperitoneal shunt has eliminated all cardiovascular-pulmonary complications and reduced the number for surgical revisions. Besides, infections involving the draining system are less severe and more easily controlled than those occurring in the ventriculoatrial shunts. After analysis of the surgical techniques as well as complications and results the following conclusions are stated: 1) the use of a valve in the ventriculoperitoneal shunt difficults the oclusion of the peritoneal end of the draining system; 2) good results can be expected without reoperations in about 42,35% of hydrocephalus cases treated by ventriculoperitoneal shunt with valve; 3) ventriculoperitoneal shunts with valve showed better results when compared to ventriculoatrial shunts. This statement is made comparing two groups of hydrocephalic infants submitted to surgery at the same Service and in the same conditions, with the same follow-up period; 4) the cases presented permit to state that at present time the ventriculoperitoneal shunt with valve is the most suitable surgical procedure for hydrocephalus.
