La influencia de factores sistémicos en el uso de las prótesis totales

According to the possible influence of systemic diseases and of drugs used for its treatment in buccal cavity, the aim of present study is to carry out a review of literature on this topic, emphasizing on influence of these factors on use of the total prostheses (PTs), allowing to surgeon-dentist a better scientific knowledge to creation of this type of rehabilitation treatment.

Influencia de la separación de residuos sólidos urbanos para reciclaje en el proceso de incineración con generación de energía

This work analyses the recuperation of the energy of Municipal Solid Waste (MSW) through the incineration process. It considers the up to date tendency of segregation (separation) of plastic, paper and cardboard, glass and metals and their influence in the fluxes of mass and energy in the incineration system of MSW. For its development was used information related to the generation of MSW in Bauru city and the Combust software. The results so obtained allowed the estimation of the Caloric power of the typical MSW and also of this residue when one considers the separations of paper/cardboard and plastic for recycling.

Influencia de la actividad física en la enfermedad de Alzheimer: un caso clínico

Alzheimer's dementia (AD) is a neurodegenerative disorder that causes motor and cognitive decline. The aim of this study was to analyze the influence of a specific physical activity program on the cognitive, depressive symptoms and functional capacity of patients with diagnosis of probable AD. The subject, a 79-year old woman, participated in this program for three months, with 50 min sessions three times a week. The instruments used were the Cambridge Cognitive Examination; the Geriatric Depression Scale; and the Battery of the American Alliance for Health Physical Education, Recreation and Dance. The results in relationship with the depressive symptoms and functional capacity were significantly positive. There were no changes in regards to the patient's cognitive functions. In conclusion, this physical activity program seems to be an important part of the treatment for patients with AD, as it improves the functional capacity and also stimulates cognitive tasks. © 2008 Asociación Española de Fisioterapeutas.

Evaluación de la deformación de dos siliconas para prótesis faciales, influencia de la pigmentación y desinfección química

The purpose of present study was to analyze the effect of pigmentation and chemical disinfection on the initial and the permanent deformation of two silicones (Silved Selant and Brascoved) for facial prosthesis. Initial and permanent deformation tests samples (20 mm × 12.5 mm) were made following the manufacturer's instructions. For each silicone (n= 40), ten samples were used for pigmentation with make up power, ten with iron oxide, ten with ceramics power and tem were tested without pigmentation. Five samples of each group were submitted to chemical disinfection using a 2 % Chlorhexidine spray. All samples were immersed in physiological saline and stored in an oven at 35 ° ± 1 °C. After 90 days, the samples were submitted to initial and permanent deformation tests using a dial indicator. For both properties, data were analyzed by Tukey's test (a= 0.05). The results showed that all the materials had initial and permanent deformation regardless of pigmentation and chemical disinfection. The groups were used for pigmentation with iron oxide showed less initial and permanent deformation when were submitted to the chemical disinfection regardless the silicone used.

A síndrome do hiperestímulo ovariano não influencia os resultados clínicos após ciclos de descongelamento de embriões provenientes de ciclos de ICSI

Objective: The objective of this study was evaluate if the embryos cryopreservation from OHSS patients Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection (ICSI) cycles could be influence the clinical outcomes when compared to patients who receive oocytes from donors but the endometrium was not prepared and the embryos were cryopreserved. Methods: Fifty eight couples submitted to ICSI cycles in which 26 with OHSS clinical manifestation (OHSS group) and 32 couples who have received oocytes from donors (control group). The embryos were frozen on day+2 or +3of development. All patients included in this study had embryos crypreserved before the transfer, and in the thawing cycle, only the endometrium preparation was performed. The embryo survival, implantation, pregnancy and miscarriage rates were evaluated in the embryo thawing cycle. Results: There was no difference among the groups in relation to fertilization rate (OHSS: 71.89% ± 15.45, Control: 79.75% ± 21.68, p= 0.234), survival embryos rate (OHSS: 68.85 ± 21.10, Control: 59.53 ± 36.79, p= 0.233), high quality embryos rate (OHSS: 25.20 ± 23.90, Control: 27.40 ± 30.30, p= 0.760), implantation rate (OHSS: 17.9 ± 26.9, Control: 12.5 ± 23.7, p= 0.435), pregnancy rate (OHSS: 38.50, Control: 28.60, p= 0.441) and miscarriage rate (OHSS: 40.00, Control: 25.00, p= 0.332). Conclusion: Our findings suggest that clinical outcomes in freeze and thawing cycles were not affected by the presence of ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome clinical manifestation after controlled ovarian stimulation.

Locus no cromossomo 19 influencia positivamente o número de oócitos recuperados em ciclos estimulados

Objective: To evaluate if identified loci associated with normal age of menopause variation and early menopause can account for the poor response to controlled ovarian stimulation. Methods: A total of 71 patients, with age ≤ 35 years old, undergoing intracytoplasmic sperm injection were tested for three of the four newly identified genetic variants associated with normal variation in menopausal age and early menopause. Patients were divided into two groups: poor responder group (PR group, n=21) and normoresponder group (NR group, n=50). The influence of risk allele frequency on the response to controlled ovarian stimulation (COS) was evaluated. Logistic regression models were used. Results: There was no significant difference in the incidence of the genetic variants between NR and PR group. The risk allele for chromosome 19 variant (rs4806660) demonstrated a protective effect. The presence of a risk allele, either in homozygosis or in heterozygosis, was associated with an increased response to COS, resulting in an elevated number of follicles (Coef: 2.54, P= 0.041) and retrieved oocytes (Coef: 1.41, P= 0.041). Conclusions: Genetic variants rs244715, rs9379896 and rs4806660 are not risk factors for poor ovarian response. Instead, rs4806660 is associated with higher number of follicles and retrieved oocytes. It could be hypothesized that rs4806660 is associated with an increased response to gonadotrophin stimulus. © Todos os direitos reservados a SBRA - Sociedade Brasileira de Reprodução Assistida.
