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.

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 BBs were prescribed according to international guidelines and withdrawn if intolerance occurred.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.

HLA-G has a relevant role in immune response regulation. The overall structure of the HLA-G coding region has been maintained during the evolution process, in which most of its variable sites are synonymous mutations or coincide with introns, preserving major functional HLA-G properties. The HLA-G promoter region is different from the classical class I promoters, mainly because (i) it lacks regulatory responsive elements for IFN-gamma and NF-kappa B, (ii) the proximal promoter region (within 200 bases from the first translated ATG) does not mediate transactivation by the principal HLA class I transactivation mechanisms, and (iii) the presence of identified alternative regulatory elements (heat shock, progesterone and hypoxia-responsive elements) and unidentified responsive elements for IL-10, glucocorticoids, and other transcription factors is evident. At least three variable sites in the 3' untranslated region have been studied that may influence HLA-G expression by modifying mRNA stability or microRNA binding sites, including the 14-base pair insertion/deletion, +3142C/G and +3187A/G polymorphisms. Other polymorphic sites have been described, but there are no functional studies on them. The HLA-G coding region polymorphisms might influence isoform production and at least two null alleles with premature stop codons have been described. We reviewed the structure of the HLA-G promoter region and its implication in transcriptional gene control, the structure of the HLA-G 3' UTR and the major actors of the posttranscriptional gene control, and, finally, the presence of regulatory elements in the coding region.

Adhesive restorations have increasingly been used in dentistry, and the adhesive system application technique may determine the success of the restorative procedure. The aim of this study was to evaluate the influence of the application technique of two adhesive systems (Clearfil SE Bond and Adper Scotchbond MultiPurpose) on the bond strength and adhesive layer of composite resin restorations. Eight human third molars were selected and prepared with Class I occlusal cavities. The teeth were restored with composite using various application techniques for both adhesives, according to the following groups (n = 10): group 1 (control), systems were applied and adhesive was immediately light activated for 20 seconds without removing excesses; group 2, excess adhesive was removed with a gentle jet of air for 5 seconds; group 3, excess was removed with a dry microbrush-type device; and group 4, a gentle jet of air was applied after the microbrush and then light activation was performed. After this, the teeth were submitted to microtensile testing. For the two systems tested, no statistical differences were observed between groups 1 and 2. Groups 3 and 4 presented higher bond strength values compared with the other studied groups, allowing the conclusion that excess adhesive removal with a dry micro-brush could improve bond strength in composite restorations. Predominance of adhesive fracture and thicker adhesive layer were observed via scanning electron microscopy (SEM) in groups 1 and 2. For groups 3 and 4, a mixed failure pattern and thinner adhesive layer were verified. Clinicians should be aware that excess adhesive may negatively affect bond strength, whereas a thin, uniform adhesive layer appears to be favorable. (Quintessence Int 2013;44:9-15)

O objetivo do presente estudo foi investigar a influência da pressão intrapulpar e da profundidade dentinária sobre o desempenho adesivo de dois agentes de união à dentina, Single Bond (3M ESPE, St. Paul, MN, EUA) e Clearfil SE Bond (Kuraray, Tokyo, Japão), aplicados in vitro e in vivo. Quarenta e oito prémolares superiores hígidos foram selecionados e os pares pertencentes aos mesmos pacientes foram aleatoriamente distribuídos em 4 grupos experimentais de acordo com o sistema adesivo e a pressão intrapulpar, presente ou ausente. Dos dentes pertencentes ao mesmo par, um foi tratado in vivo e o outro in vitro. A ausência ou presença de pressão intra-pulpar foi determinada in vivo pelo uso de anestésicos locais com ou sem vasoconstritor, respectivamente. In vitro, os dentes foram mantidos sob pressão hidrostática de 15 cm de água por 24 horas. Cavidades de classe I foram preparadas e os sistemas adesivos aplicados de acordo com a recomendação dos fabricantes, seguidos da restauração incremental em resina composta. Para os dentes tratados in vitro, os mesmos procedimentos restauradores foram realizados após 6 meses de armazenagem em solução contendo timol 0,1%. Espécimes com área de secção transversal de 1 mm2 foram obtidos e submetidos ao ensaio mecânico de microtração. In vivo, ambos os sistemas adesivos apresentaram desempenho adesivo comparável, enquanto in vitro, o sistema Single Bond foi superior ao sistema Clearfil SE Bond. Esse último não foi influenciado por nenhuma das variáveis estabelecidas no estudo, ou seja, aplicação in vitro ou in vitro, presença de pressão intrapulpar e profundidade em dentina. O sistema Single Bond aplicado sob pressão intrapulpar positiva sofreu variação significante de resistência de união em função da profundidade da dentina, ou seja, em dentina profunda seu desempenho adesivo...

This case report describes the interdisciplinary treatment of a 19-year-old Brazilian man with a Class I malocclusion, a hyperdivergent profile, an anterior open bite, and signs of temporomandibular joint internal derangement. The treatment plan included evaluation with a temporomandibular joint specialist and a rheumatologist, orthodontic appliances, and maxillomandibular surgical advancement with counterclockwise rotation. Cone-beam computed tomography images were taken before and after surgery at different times and superimposed at the cranial base to assess the changes after orthognathic surgery and to monitor quantitatively the internal derangement of the temporomandibular joints and surgical relapse. Our protocol can improve the orthodontist's understanding of surgical instability, demonstrate the clinical value of cone-beam computed tomography analysis beyond the multiplanar reconstruction, and guide patient management for the best outcome possible.
