Instrumento e método para adquirir sinais e imagens do trato gastrintestinal

This invention relates to an apparatus and method for improving detection by equipment used to detect magnetic susceptibility. The advantages provided are related to different factors, such as reduced instrumentation cost, performance in terms of stability and sensitivity, etc. The devices may be used, for example, to detect magnetic tracers and markers in the gastrointestinal tract of animals and humans. They can be used in research and/or for diagnostic purposes using information related to a variety of parameters of the gastrointestinal tract, such as, pharyngeal and oesophageal transit time, gastric emptying and motility, colonic motility, inter alia.

Influência do estímulo verbal no tempo do teste de escada

Introduction: The stair-climbing test (SCT) is considered a submaximal test of simple implementation and easy access, which assesses the individual’s functional capacity. Although widely used in surgical patients, there is no standardization regarding the height of the stair and verbal stimulus. Objectives: It was determine if verbal stimulus changes the stair-climbing time (SCt) in individuals over 50 years-old. We compared oxygenation, blood pressure, pulse, respiratory rate and Borg scale between SCT performed with and without stimulation. Methods: We evaluated individuals with ages greater than 50 years-old that performed two STC (with and without verbal stimulation), in the stair with 44 steps, achieving 7.04 m in height and recording the time to climb the stair. The systolic blood pressure (SBP) and the diastolic blood pressure (DBP), respiratory rate (RR), pulse, oxygen saturation (SpO2 ) and Borg scale were evaluated before and after the tests. The time in the SCT with and without stimulation were compared using the Student test-t and the other variables were compared using the ANOVA test (p<0.05). Results: The average age was 59.75±6,40 years old in the 21 evaluated individuals. The time in the SCT without stimulus was significantly higher than the one with stimulus. The SBP, pulse, RR and Borg scale were significantly increased when compared to the SCT with and without stimulus. Oxygenation and DBP didn´t have significant differences at any time of the study. Conclusions: The time in the SCT was lower when performed with verbal stimulus. The SBP, pulse, RR and Borg scale changed significantly after the SCT with and without stimulus, remarking that this change was greater in the SCT with stimulus.

Formation of 1,N-6-etheno-2 '-deoxyadenosine adducts by trans,trans-2,4-decadienal

trans,trans-2,4-Decadienal (DDE) is an important breakdown product of lipid peroxidation. This aldehyde is cytotoxic to mammalian cells and is known to be implicated in DNA damage. Therefore, attempts were made in this work to assess the reactivity of DDE with 2'-deoxyadenosine (dAdo). It was shown that DDE is able to bind to 2'-deoxyadenosine, yielding highly fluorescent products. Besides 1,N-6-etheno-2'-deoxyadenosine (epsilon dAdo), two other related adducts, 1-[3-(2-deoxy-beta-D-erythro-pentofuranosyl)3H-imidazo[2,1-i]purin-7-yl]-1,2,3-octanetriol and 1-[3-(2-deoxy-beta-D-erythro-pentofuranosyl)-3H-imidazo[2,1-i]purin-7-yl]-1,2-heptanediol, were isolated by reverse phase high-performance liquid chromatography and characterized on the basis of their UV, fluorescence, nuclear magnetic resonance, and mass spectrometry features. The reaction mechanism for the formation of the DDE-2'-deoxyadenosine adducts involves 2,4-decadienal epoxidation and subsequent addition to the N-2 amino group of 2'-deoxyadenosine, followed by cyclization at the N-1 site. Adducts differ by the length of carbon side chain and the number of hydroxyl groups. The present data indicate that DDE can be epoxidized by peroxides, and the resulting products are able to form several adducts with 2'-deoxyadenosine and/or DNA. Endogenous DNA adduct formation can contribute to the already reported high cytotoxicity of DDE to mammalian cells.
