Este estudo foi realizado com o propósito de testar a reprodutibilidade, a confiabilidade e a concordância existente entre os métodos de Martins e Sakima (1977) para a radiografia de mão e punho, e Hassel e Farman (1995) e Baccetti et al. (2002) para as vértebras cervicais, quando comparados 2 a 2, e entre todos, conjuntamente. A amostra constou de 72 radiografias, sendo 36 telerradiografias em norma lateral da cabeça e 36 radiografias de mão e punho do lado esquerdo, de 36 indivíduos com Síndrome de Down (SD), sendo 13 do sexo feminino e 23 do masculino na faixa etária entre oito anos e seis meses até 18 anos e sete meses, com média de 13 anos e dez meses. De acordo com os resultados obtidos concluímos que, os índices de maturação avaliados por meio das vértebras cervicais e os centros de ossificação observados nas radiografias de mão e punho foram estatisticamente significativos, obtendo um excelente grau de concordância entre eles, considerados reprodutíveis e confiáveis. Quando comparados onjuntamente, todos os métodos se mostraram estatisticamente significantes com grau de concordância de razoável a boa, sendo considerados confiáveis na aplicação clínica.

benign epithelial odontogenic lesions are great clinical importance entities that develop in the jaws from the tissues that form teeth. It has been shown that in benign and malignant tumors, are present in a large number of tumor stem cells, which has great implications in the development of these lesions. Oct-4 and CD44 have been demos as important markers for tumoral stem cells. The objective of this study was to identify epithelial cells expressing stem cell markers by immunohistochemical expression of Oct-4 and CD44 in a series of cases of benign epithelial odontogenic lesions. The sample was comprised of 20 cases of odontogenic keratocyst (OKC), 20 cases of solid/multicystic ameloblastoma and 20 cases of adenomatoid odontogenic tumor (AOT). The expression of Oct-4 and CD44 was evaluated in epithelial lesions using the percentage of positive cells (PP) and the intensity of expression (IE), being realized the sum of these scores, resulting in Total Immunostaining Score (TIS) ranging 0 to 7. The results were submitted to the appropriate statistical test (nonparametric Kruskal-Wallis and Spearman correlation coefficient). All cases were positive for both markers and most showed high expression of both markers. The analysis of Oct-4 expression revealed no statistically significant differences (p = 0.406) among the studied lesions. Regarding the CD44 expression, there was a statistically significant difference between the cases of ameloblastoma and TOA in relation to the CCO, with the latter show more cases in the score 7 (p = 0.034). In the correlation analysis of the immunoreactivity of both markers in the three lesions studied, there was no statistically significant correlation. The results of this study identified the presence of cells with stemness characteristics arranged at various sites in the epithelial component of the studied lesions suggesting their possible role in the histogenesis and differentiation in benign epithelial odontogenic lesions, thus contributing to the development of these lesions.

The chronic state of hyperglycemia due to diabetes mellitus affects multiples organs impairing life quality. In bone, diabetes alters strength and mineral density and also suppresses the osteoblast activity, leading to an unbalanced bone healing process. Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBO) is suggested as an adjuvant treatment to accelerate bone repair. This study evaluated the effects of HBO in the number of mast cells and in new bone formation at the initial stage of bone repair in normoglycemic and diabetic rats. It was hypothesized that HBO treatment may improve bone repair in diabetic bone. The rats were equally divided in four groups: Control (C); Control + HBO (CH); Diabetes (D) and Diabetes + HBO (DH). Diabetes was induced by streptozotocin (65mg/kg) and femoral bone defects were created thirty days after diabetes induction in all groups. HBO initiated immediately after surgery procedure and was performed daily, for 7 days, in the CH e DH groups. Seven days after surgery, all animals were euthanized. The femur diaphyses were removed, fixated, decalcified and processed for paraffin embedding. The semi-serial histological sections obtained were stained with Hematoxylin-Eosin (HE), Mallory Trichrome and Toluidine Blue. The qualitative analysis was conducted in the histology slides stained with HE, where it was evaluated the morphological aspects of bone repair in the lesion area, observing the presence of clot, inflammatory cells, granulation tissue, type of bone tissue, morphology of bone cells, and thickness and organization of bone trabeculae. In the slides stained with Mallory Trichrome and Toluidine Blue were evaluated the percentage of new bone formation and number of mast cells, respectively. The qualitative analysis showed that the CH group presented a more advanced stage of bone repair compared to the C group, showing thicker trabeculae and greater bone filling of the lesion area. In D and DH group, the lesion area was partially filled with new bone formation tissue and presented thinner trabeculae and fewer areas associated to osteoclasts compared to control group. The histomorphometric analysis showed a significant improvement in new bone formation (p<0.001) comparing CH (38.08 ± 4.05) and C (32.05 ± 5.51); C and D (24.62 ± 2.28 and CH and DH (27.14 ± 4.21) groups. In the normoglycemic rats there was a significant increasing in the number of mast cells (p<0.05) comparing C (8.06 ± 5.15) and CH (21.06 ± 4.91) groups. In conclusion, this study showed that diabetes impaired bone repair and HBO was only able to increase new bone formation and the number of mast cells in the normoglycemic animals.

CHAPTER 1 - This study histologically evaluated two implant designs: a classic thread design versus another specifically designed for healing chamber formation placed with two drilling protocols. Forty dental implants (4.1 mm diameter) with two different macrogeometries were inserted in the tibia of 10 Beagle dogs, and maximum insertion torque was recorded. Drilling techniques were: until 3.75 mm (regular-group); and until 4.0 mm diameter (overdrillinggroup) for both implant designs. At 2 and 4 weeks, samples were retrieved and processed for histomorphometric analysis. For torque and BIC (bone-to-implant contact) and BAFO (bone area fraction occupied), a general-linear model was employed including instrumentation technique and time in vivo as independent. The insertion torque recorded for each implant design and drilling group significantly decreased as a function of increasing drilling diameter for both implant designs (p<0.001). No significant differences were detected between implant designs for each drilling technique (p>0.18). A significant increase in BIC was observed from 2 to 4 weeks for both implants placed with the overdrilling technique (p<0.03) only, but not for those placed in the 3.75 mm drilling sites (p>0.32). Despite the differences between implant designs and drilling technique an intramembranous-like healing mode with newly formed woven bone prevailed. CHAPTER 2 - The objective of this preliminary histologic study was to determine whether the alteration of drilling protocols (oversized, intermediate, undersized drilling) present different biologic responses at early healing periods of 2 weeks in vivo in a beagle dog model. Ten beagle dogs were acquired and subjected to surgeries in the tibia 2 weeks before euthanasia. During surgery, 3 implants, 4 mm in diameter by 10 mm in length, were placed in bone sites drilled to 3.5 mm, 3.75 mm, and 4.0 mm in final diameter. The insertion and removal torque was recorded for all samples. Statistical significance was set to 95% level of confidence and the number of dogs was considered as the statistical unit for all comparisons. For the torque and BIC and BAFO, a general linear model was employed including instrumentation technique and time in vivo as independent. Overall, the insertion torque increased as a function of drilling diameter from 4.0 mm, to 3.75 mm, to 3.5 mm, with a significant difference in torque levels between all groups (p<0.001). Statistical assessment of BIC and BAFO showed significantly higher values for the 3.75 mm (recommended) drilling group was observed relative to the other two groups (p<0.001). Different drilling dimensions resulted in variations in insertion torque values (primary stability) and different pattern of healing and interfacial remodeling was observed for the different groups. CHAPTER 3 - The present study evaluated the effect of different drilling dimensions (undersized, regular, and oversized) in the insertion and removal torques of dental implants in a beagle dog model. Six beagle dogs were acquired and subjected to bilateral surgeries in the radii 1 and 3 weeks before euthanasia. During surgery, 3 implants, 4 mm in diameter by 10 mm in length, were placed in bone sites drilled to 3.2 mm, 3.5 mm, and 3.8 mm in final diameter. The insertion and removal torque was recorded for all samples. Statistical analysis was performed by paired t tests for repeated measures and by t tests assuming unequal variances (all at the 95% level of significance). Overall, the insertion torque and removal torque levels obtained were inversely proportional to the drilling dimension, with a significant difference detected between the 3.2 mm and 3.5 mm relative to the 3.8 mm groups (P < 0.03). Although insertion torque–removal torque paired observations was statis- tically maintained for the 3.5 mm and 3.8 mm groups, a significant decrease in removal torque values relative to insertion torque levels was observed for the 3.2 mm group. A different pattern of healing and interfacial remodeling was observed for the different groups. Different drilling dimensions resulted in variations in insertion torque values (primary stability) and stability maintenance over the first weeks of bone healing.

The study aimed to evaluate performance, relative weight of the small intestine, digestibility and deposition of minerals in the bone of broilers supplemented with enzymatic complex (carbohydrases and phytase) in sorghum-based diets or sorghum and millet. In the experiments based of sorghum and sorghum and millet were used 912 day-old male and female Hubbard Flex chicks (50:50) were distributed in a completely randomized design in a 2x2 factorial arrangement (Feed Control base Sorghum (Contcs); FeedReducedbase Sorghum (RedS); Feed Control base sorghum + Enzymatic Complex (Contcs + Enz);. Feed reduced base sorghum + Enzymatic Complex (RedS + Enz) in the study of feed basis of sorghum and millet the design was similar (Feed Control base sorghum + millet ( ContSM); Reduced feed based on Millet + Sorghum (RedSM); Feed Control based Sorghum + Millet + EnzimaticComplex (ContSM + Enz); Reduced Feed base Sorghum+ Millet + Enzimatic Complex (RedSM + Enz). At 35 and 42 days of age were determined performance data: feed intake (CR), body weight (BW), feed conversion (FC), viability (VIAB), relative weight of the small intestine and deposition of minerals in the bone. The digestibility was evaluated sorghum grain size (crushed and whole) with and without exoenzimatico complex. They used 32 birds, eight birds per treatment, in periods from 17 to 21 (initial) and 31 to 35 days of age (fattening). The exoenzimático complex used in feed favored the weight gain results, feed conversion and bone mineralization when compared to a control diet not added to enzymes, demonstrating its effect on non-starch polysaccharides and phosphorus phytic present as anti-nutritional factors in these diets, increasing the digestibility and supply of metabolizable energy, essential amino acids, methionine and lysine and calcium and phosphorus for bone formation. It is concluded that a safe strategy for inclusion in feed is based on the reduction of energy levels, essential amino acids, methionine and lysine and calcium and phosphorus in the expected result of the constant activity of the enzymes of this exoenzimático complex.

In several areas of health professionals (pediatricians, nutritionists, orthopedists, endocrinologists, dentists, etc.) are used in the assessment of bone age to diagnose growth disorders in children. Through interviews with specialists in diagnostic imaging and research done in the literature, we identified the TW method - Tanner and Whitehouse as the most efficient. Even achieving better results than other methods, it is still not the most used, due to the complexity of their use. This work presents the possibility of automation of this method and therefore that its use more widespread. Also in this work, they are met two important steps in the evaluation of bone age, identification and classification of regions of interest. Even in the radiography in which the positioning of the hands were not suitable for TW method, the identification algorithm of the fingers showed good results. As the use AAM - Active Appearance Models showed good results in the identification of regions of interest even in radiographs with high contrast and brightness variation. It has been shown through appearance, good results in the classification of the epiphysis in their stages of development, being chosen the average epiphysis finger III (middle) to show the performance. The final results show an average percentage of 90% hit and misclassified, it was found that the error went away just one stage of the correct stage.

As infecções nosocomiais têm aumentado ao longo dos anos, resultando num aumento do tempo de permanência do doente no hospital, e permanecem como elevada causa de elevada morbilidade e mortalidade. As micobactérias são organismos que se encontram amplamente distribuídos no meio ambiente (M. mucogenicum, M. obuense e M. gordonae), incluindo, habitats marinhos (Mycobacterium marinum), sendo muitos deles patogénicos de mamíferos, e causadores de diferentes patologias, como a Lepra e a Tuberculose. M. marinum causa uma doença sistémica tal como tuberculose em peixes e pode causar infecções da pele em seres humanos (Granuloma de Aquário) que se podem propagar para estruturas mais profundas como ossos (osteomielite). Enquanto que M. obuense é causador de infecções do tracto respiratório, M. mucogenicum e M. gordonae promovem bacteremias. Este estudo teve como principal objectivo a identificação das populações bacterianas e o seu isolamento, em particular micobactérias ambientais em dois hospitais, que sabe serem responsáveis, cada vez mais por infecções atípicas como bacteremias (M. mucogenicum e M. gordonae), infecções pulmonares (M. obuense) e infecções cutâneas (M. marinum). Pretendeu-se também avaliar a resistência aos antibióticos e desinfectantes comummente utilizados no tratamento de infecções causadas por micobactérias não tuberculosas (MNT) através do cálculo da Concentração Mínima Inibitória (CMI) para aferir os perfis de resistência. Os resultados deste estudo demonstram a identificação de 186 espécies de bactérias em dois hospitais amostrados das quais se identificaram 5 estirpes de micobactérias – “M. gardonae” (10AIII, 29AIII e 35AIII), “M. obuense” (22DIII) e “M. mucogenicum” (24AIII). Das 5 estirpes de micobactérias identificadas “M. gardonae” 10AIII apresenta perfil de resistência ao imipenemo (CMI = 16 mg/L); “M. gardonae” 29AIII apresenta perfil de resistência à claritromicina (CMI = 8 mg/L) e “M. gardonae” 35AIII apresenta, por sua vez, apenas perfil de susceptibilidade intermédia ao imipenem (CMI = 8 mg/L). M. obuense 22DIII apresenta perfil de resistência ao imipenem (CMI = 32 mg/L), à tobramicina (CMI=32 mg/L) e à ciprofloxacina (CMI = 8 mg/L). “M. mucogenicum” apresenta perfil de resistência ao sulfametoxazol (CMI > 128 mg/L), à doxiciclina (CMI>64 mg/L), à tobramicina (CMI=16 mg/L) e à ciprofloxacina (CMI=4 mg/L).Em conclusão pôde-se verificar que além da presença de um grande leque de bactérias capazes de causar infecções nosocomiais nos hospitais, MNT também existem na forma multirresistente, o que revela uma problemática a ter em atenção. Esta requer mais estudo dos mecanismos de resistência e da sua disseminação, e obtenção de novos medicamentos com novos alvos, mais eficazes para combater as estirpes multirresistentes que ao longo dos anos tem aumentado.
