L’activitat antiretroviral i la toxicitat de l’estavudina (d4T) depèn del seu metabòlit trifosfat (d4T-TP).Es varen determinar els nivells intracel•lulars de d4T-TP y els polimorfismes dels gens dels enzims la via del folat entre altres la timidilat sintasa (TS), la metilentetrahidrofolat reductasa (MTHFR), .... Els nivells intracel•lulars de d4T als malalts del estudi transversal amb un genotip d’alta expressió del TS van ser de 11.50 fmol/106 cels mentre que per aquells amb un genotip de baixa expressió, van ser de 20.65 (P = 0.0010). Els nivells intracel•lulars de d4T són determinats pels polimorfismes de timidilato sintasa.

Introducció: el pronòstic global dels malalts amb Malaltia Pulmonar Difusa (MPD) que ingressen a Unitats de Cures Intensives és dolent. El trasplantament urgent pot ser una opció terapèutica. Material i mètode: de Gener 1998 a Juny de 2009, 34 pacients con MPD, edat de 55 (21-76) anys. Resultats: 23 eren Fibrosis Pulmonar Idiopàtica (FPI). Del total de malalts, un 79,4% van requerir ventilació mecànica. La mortalitat global va ser del 76%. 16 pacients es van incloure a llista de trasplantament urgent i es van trasplantar 12 amb una supervivencia a UCI del 58,3%. Conclusions: es confirma el mal pronòstic dels malalts amb MPD que ingressen a UCI. EL TP urgent possiblement és una opció vàlida en pacients joves seleccionats.

The purpose of intravenous fluid therapy (IFT) is to maintain or restore internal equilibrium by administering fluids and/or different electrolyte components. Its correct use and the prevention of complications arising from their misuse depend on the knowledge of the medical team on this subject. We analyzed this issue in different clinical areas of a tertiary hospital. MATERIAL AND METHODS We performed a descriptive cross-sectional pilot study via a questionnaire given to physicians specializing in internal medicine (IM) and digestive system surgery (SDS) who perform clinical practice in hospital units with unit dose drug dispensing system. We designed an anonymous questionnaire with 25 questions relative to knowledge of theory and practices, as well as the opinion of physicians regarding IFT. We evaluated the association between nominal qualitative variables with the Chi-square or Fisher's exact test. The behavior of the quantitative variables was assessed using the t-student test. The analysis of the data was generated using SAS/STAT, Version 9. RESULTS 28 questionnaires were collected from 13 surgeons and 15 digestive interns. Over 40% of specialists considered further education in IFT a necessity , especially regarding its prescription (SDS: 61.54%, IM: 71.43%). No statistically significant differences were found between the specialties in terms of perceived frequency of complications associated with IFT or in the frequency indication with the exception of hypovolemic shock, which is considered to be more prevalent in gastrointestinal surgery (p = 0.046). 90% of professionals prefer an individualized prescription. Statistically significant differences in terms of scores in the area of knowledge, with IM physicians achieving the highest scores (p = 0.014). There were also differences in attitude but they are not significant (p = 0.162). Knowledge of intravenous fluid increases with years of clinical experience (Spearman correlation coefficient = 0.386, p = 0.047). CONCLUSIONS The professionals who prescribe IFT perceive the need to design IFT training programs, together with the production of guides and consensus protocols.

To evaluate the effectiveness of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) in the success of postoperative weight loss after 2 years of CB. METHODS: A prospective observational study was conducted in consecutive patients with morbid obesity aged between 18 and 59 yrs and enrolled in the bariatric surgery program of the Obesity Surgery Unit of our hospital from June 2007 through June 2010, with two years postoperative follow-up. Participants were divided into two groups according to their participation in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy or not. Over a 3-month period, CBT was applied in 12 2-h sessions. The main dependent variables studied were body weight and height, from which we calculated BMI and percentage of excess weight lost (weight lost x 100)/(initial weight-ideal weight), classifying patients as successful (E ) those with EPP > 50%, and unsuccessful (NE) those with EPP <50%. Participants were also, assessed for general (stress, anxiety, depression and self-esteem) and specific (binge eating and food craving) psychopathology. RESULTS: Of the 35 patients with bariatric surgery, 30 responded postoperative evaluations, 16 underwent CBT before CB and 14 underwent surgery without receiving psycho-nutritional therapy, (76% female) with a mean age of 41 ± 9.5 years. The mean baseline BMI was 42 ± 10 and 45% of patients were classified as super obese (BMI: 56 ± 6). Mean excess weight loss (EPP) was 77%. According to the EPP were classified as "successful" (S) (59%) and "unsuccessful" (U) (41%). Of the patients assigned to S, 94% received CBT (15 individuals of 17 total), compared with only 12% who did not receive (2 individuals of the 17 total) with statistically significant differences (p < 0.05). Also, the S patients appeared to be significantly less anxious and stressed and have higher self-esteem (P < 0.05). Regarding specific psychopathology, the food craving guided by hunger, loss of control over food intake and guilt was lower in patients who achieved > 50% of EPP (p < 0.04, p < 0.001, p < 0.001, respectively). It was also noted that these patients were plans to eat less and ate less for positive reinforcement (p < 0.03 and p < 0.000, respectively) than the patient group NE

Objetivo. Analizar los resultados de la fijación transarticular e interarticular en dos series de pacientes. Métodos. Se analizaron 36 pacientes con inestabilidad C1-C2, 20 tratados mediante fijación transarticular, y 15 con fijación interarticular. Se obtuvieron datos sobre las complicaciones, evolución radiológica y resultados clínicos. Resultados. De los tratados con fijación transarticular se obtuvieron resultados buenos en 17 casos, regular en 2 y malo en 1. En la fijación interarticular en 14 se obtuvieron un buen resultado, y regular en 2. Conclusiones. La fijación C1-C2 transarticular e interarticular resulta segura, con presentando altas tasas de buenos resultados con pocas complicaciones.
