Avaliação Postural em Sujeitos com Disfunção Temporomandibular Submetidos a Tratamento de Terapia Manual

Individuals with temporomandibular disorders (TMD) often have signs and symptoms such as intra-articular pain, muscle spasm, neck pain radiating from others who interfere with this balance. Over time can lead to postural changes and correction of the cervical spine, anterior head and shoulder asymmetry. The aim was to verify the effects of manual therapy on posture in subjects with TMD. Materials and methods: 30 volunteers (mean: 21.43± SD:1.43) of both sexes who had TMD classified according to axis I of the Research Diagnostic Criteria participated in this study. These were photographed in the anterior frontal and sagittal planes for analysis of the following angles (acromion clavicular joint, sternoclavicular joint, orbicular external, corners of the mouthand and protruding head). After, the volunteers were divided into groups ATM (manual therapy in the treatment of temporomandibular joint), Cervical (manual therapy in the treatment of cervical joint) and Control. The Kolmogokov-Smirnov test, followed by ANOVA, considering a significance level of 5% was used. Results: Groups ATM, Cervical and Control were considered homogeneous with respect to the values of the angles measured. These also showed no significant difference between the 1st, 5th and 10th sessions, so the manual therapy techniques applied to the TMJ and Cervical groups were not sufficient to change postural alignment. Conclusion: The postural alignment, the TMD patients evaluated in this study did not change after attending the sessions proposals with manual therapy techniques in the cervical and TMJ.

Avaiação da Dor e da Postura em Pacientes com Lombalgia Submetidos a Dois Protocolos de Fortalecimento Abdominal

Introduction: the lumbar spine is the main part of the body responsible for the support of the loads, where approximately half of body weight is in stable balance. This support relates to the action of abdominal muscles, of great importance in the balance of that region. The existence of abdominal muscle weakness, such won’t perform its function, may induce pathological postural attitude, that predispose the pain. Objective: to compare the effects of two abdominal strengthening protocols on pain and postural alignment in individuals with low back pain. Method: participated of the study 21 individuals of both genders, with ages between 19 and 25 years old (average 21,8±1,5) and average Body Mass Index (BMI) 21,9 (±2,48), divided randomly in isometric abdominal stimulation group (n=8), abdominal strengthening group (n=7) and control group (n=6). They realized eight sessions of strengthening, when responded Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) before and after each intervention. The control group (n=6) had no intervention. The postural data had been analyzed by photogrammetry. Results: Pain and posture data were analyzed using paired t test, with signifi cance index of 5%. Postural angles had no signifi cant differences (p>0,05) from all angles analyzed after the intervention to none of the groups. For pain values, a signifi cant decrease (p<0,05) was observed since the fi fth session in patients who were treated by the abdominal exercises protocol, and the fi rst session in patients who were treated by the isometric abdominal stimulation protocol. However, this decrease in pain was immediate, not lasting along the treatment sessions, in both protocols. Conclusion: the proposed protocols did not interfere in postural alignment. They were effective to decrease pain in a same session, once the isometric was the most effective, but they weren’t effective in preserving the improves over time.

Um Enigma e sua Esfinge

This essay is targeted to ransom some aspects in General Miguel Costas´political trajectory; and also, the controversial debate concerning the Coluna Prestes. Here the attention is focused on his (the General’s) lack of knowledge even in the university matters, as also about the very Policia Militar (Military Police) institution. Considering a hypothesis, this came to happen on account of too few study material on the institution originated by the scholars efforts, but it happened also because the own Policia Militar were afraid that him would be sight like a leftish policeman.

Produção de anticorpos monoclonais murinos dirigidos contra células-tronco mesenquimais de coelho

Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are a heterogeneous population of cells that proliferate in vitro as plastic-adherent cells, have fibroblast-like morphology and can differentiate into bone, cartilage and fat cells. Therapeutic potential of MSCs have been studied in experimental models, such as rabbit, in Laboratory of Cell Engineering of Botucatu. However, no specific markers have been reported for expanded rabbit MSCs, which hampers the isolation of pure MSC populations by immunophenotypic characterization. Thus, the objective of this study was to produce monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) to rabbit MSCs. MSCs derived from rabbit bone marrow (BM) were isolated, cultured, expanded ex vivo, and immunized into three BALB/c mices, and spleen cells subsequently harvested were used to generate hibridoma cell lines secreting antibodies against MSCs. Hybridoma cells were screened by flow cytometry and antibody-producing cells were subjected to subsequent rounds of retests. MSC1-160 obtained the best positivity for IgG expression and was cloned by limiting dilutions and micromanipulation. Ascitic fluid from ten best clones was purified by affinity chromatography in Protein A-sepharose CL-4B column and purification control was performed by electrophoresis in agarose gels. The purified IgG were tested against rabbit MSCs, obtaining high positivity by flow Cytometry. In conclusion, we developed 10 mAbs, MSC1-160 A20, A30, A41, A47, A55, A60, A63, A69, A81, and A82, that recognize rabbit MSC cell surface antigens showing potential for immunophenotypic characterization of rabbit MSC cell lines

Metodologia de avaliação e análise de termografia em equinos

A análise termográfica é uma tecnologia proveniente da engenharia e utilizada na Segunda Guerra Mundial para detecção de forças armadas inimigas. Foi aplicada inicialmente na medicina para avaliação de articulações com artrites e hoje apresenta importante função no diagnóstico de câncer de mama em mulheres. Na medicina veterinária, há mais de trinta anos é técnica de diagnóstico auxiliar na clínica de equinos, para avaliação de processos inflamatórios tais como tendinites, desmites, artrites, miosites ou ainda no diagnóstico de fraturas, lesões na coluna ou em nervos periféricos. Por ser uma técnica com alta sensibilidade, exige que seu operador tenha treinamento e doutrinamento, não só para a execução dos exames, mas também para a análise de seus resultados. Diante disso, muitos pesquisadores afirmaram que os exames termográficos de aplicabilidade científica deveriam ser realizados em local com temperatura controlada, em torno de 23oC. Ao se trabalhar com equinos, torna-se difícil encontrar ambientes amplos o suficiente e com controle de temperatura para que os exames sejam feitos, o que praticamente inviabilizaria o uso da termografia na pesquisa com cavalos. Assim, este trabalho propôs um método de padronização das temperaturas que permite realizar termografias de extremidades de membros em ambientes variando entre 18 e 35oC. O método proposto, nomeado como PadTemp, foi validado em cavalos saudáveis e aplicado em experimentos de verificação de eficácia de fármacos e de acompanhamento de cirurgias ortopédicas.
