Avaliação do tempo e da concentração do condicionamento com ácido fluorídrico sobre a resistência de união entre cerâmica e cimento resinoso

The aim of this study was to verify through microtensile test the influence of time and concentration of surface conditioning with hydrofluoric acid and its interference in the adhesion of dual resin cement to porcelain.We used 32 bodies of glass-ceramic lithium disilicate system IPS e.max Press LT with dimensions of 6mm thick, 8 mm in length and 8 mm in length, which will be molded to obtain composite resin blocks corresponding to blocks ceramics. Ceramic and resin blocks were divided into 16 groups (n = 4) and numbered according to the concentration of hydrofluoric acid (2.5%, 5%, 7.5% and 10%) and conditioning time (20 seconds, 40 seconds, 1 minute and 2 minutes). The blocks were cleaned in ultrasonic apparatus with distilled water and dried with compressed air, subjected to acid etching and air-jet washed with water, dried with compressed air and received application of silane agent Monobond-S, followed by adhesive Excite ( Ivoclar Vivaden). Each ceramic block was bonded to the corresponding block of resin through the resin cement Multilink Automix. The specimens were cut to obtain nine micro samples for each set of ceramic-resin with 1 mm X 1 mm X 12 mm in length, which were submitted to microtensile test. The results were analyzed with descriptive statistics and analysis of variance with significance level of 5%, revealing that there were statistically significant (p = 0.000001 <0.05). From the Tukey test can be concluded that etching with hydrofluoric acid and 2.5% for 120 seconds gave the best bond strength, however, no statistical difference between the conditioning with the same acid in the concentration of 5.0% for 20 to 40 seconds

Apocinina versus diapocinina como inibidor da produção de peróxido de hidrogênio e ácido hipocloroso por neutrófilos ativados

Apocynin has been used as an efficient inhibitor of the multi-enzymatic complex NADPH oxidase in many experimental models involving phagocytic and nonphagocytic cells. The mechanism of inhibition has been linked with the previous activation of apocynin through the action of cellular peroxidases leading to the formation of a dimeric oxidation product, diapocynin. In this study we compared apocynin with pure diapocynin regarding their effects as scavenger of hydrogen peroxide and hypochlorous generated by glucose/glucose oxidase and myeloperoxidase respectively, and as inhibitors of the production of hydrogen peroxide and hypochlorous acid by activated neutrophils. The production of hydrogen peroxide was measured by the oxidation of the fluorescent substance Amplex Red and the production of hypochlorous acid by was measured as taurine-chloramine derivative using the chromogenic substrate 3,3’,5,5’- tetramethylbenzidine (TMB). Neutrophils (1 x106 cells/mL) were pre-incubated in PBS buffer supplemented with 1 mM calcium chloride, 0.5 mM magnesium chloride, 1 mg/mL glucose and 5 mM taurine in the presence or absence of inhibitors. The reactions were triggered by adding the soluble stimulus Forbol Miristate Acetate PMA or zymosan and incubated by additional 30 minutes. We found that pure diapocynin was not better than apocynin regarding its scavenger and inhibitory properties. These results suggest that the formation of diapocynin is not essential for the action of apocynin as inhibitor of NADPH oxidase activation

Efeito da recuperação ativa na determinação da máxima fase estável de lactato sanguíneo no ciclismo

The objective of this study was to compare the power corresponding to maximal lactate steady state determined through continuous (MLSSC) and intermittent protocol with active recovery (MLSSI). Ten trained male cyclists (25 ± 4 yr, 72.5 ± 10.6 kg, 178.5 ± 4.0 cm), performed the following tests on different days on a cycle ergometer: (1) incremental test in order to determine the anaerobic threshold (AT) and maximal power (Pmax); (2) two to five constant workload tests to determine MLSSC, and; 3) two to three constant workload tests to determine MLSSI, consisting on 8 x 4 minutes bouts interspersed by two minutes of active recovery at 50% Pmax (i.e., 46 min of exercise protocol). MLSS intensity was defined as the highest workload at which blood lactate concentration did not increase by more than 1 mM between minutes 10 and 30 of the constant workload. The workload corresponding to MLSSC (273.2 ± 21.4 W) was significantly lower than that corresponding to MLSSI (300.5 ± 23.9 W). With base on these data, it can be verified that the intermittent exercise mode utilized in this study, allows an increase of 10% approximately, in the exercise intensity corresponding to MLSS.

Comparação do efeito da fadiga muscular no andar livre e adaptativo entre adultos jovens e idosos

A fadiga muscular é definida como uma falha no sistema neuromuscular na capacidade de gerar uma força requerida ou esperada. Quanto maior a idade do indivíduo, maior é a probabilidade de chegar à fadiga, aumentando o risco de quedas. Dessa forma, a fadiga pode influenciar no andar dos indivíduos, causando prejuízos no controle postural e podendo causar lesões músculo-esqueléticas A partir dos estudos realizados, percebe-se que a fadiga muscular pode prejudicar o desempenho do andar, sendo ele adaptativo ou não. O objetivo do estudo foi analisar e comparar a influência da fadiga muscular sobre os parâmetros cinemáticos do andar livre e adaptativo entre adultos jovens e idosos. Participaram do estudo 20 indivíduos, distribuídos em dois grupos etários: Adulto Jovem - 20 a 40 anos; e Idoso - a partir de 60 anos. Os participantes realizaram o andar livre e adaptativo percorrendo uma distância retilínea de 8 metros sobre um carpete de borracha com 1,4m de largura. Foram realizadas 6 tentativas para cada condição experimental. Para a coleta dos dados cinemáticos dos ciclos do andar definidos foi utilizado um sistema tridimensional (3D) optoeletrônico de análise do movimento (OPTOTRAK Certus – 3D Motion Measurement System, NDI), com precisão de 0,1 mm, posicionado no plano frontal, face anterior, ao movimento do participante, com frequência de 100 Hz. A indução a fadiga será através da tarefa de sentar e levantar. Para a comparação entre os dois grupos foram analisados as seguintes variáveis espaciais e temporais do andar livre e adaptativo: comprimento de cada passo, largura de cada passo, velocidade média do andar, distância horizontal pé-obstáculo antes da ultrapassagem, distância horizontal depois do obstáculo e distância vertical péobstáculo. Estas variáveis foram analisadas durante o ciclo do andar antes e após fadiga muscular.

Reparação de enxertos ósseos autógenos recobertos ou não por membrana de ptfe-e em ratas ovariectomizadas. Estudo histológico e histomorfométrico

Abstract : The objective of this study was to evaluate quantitatively and to describe qualitatively the process of bone repair in the interface of receptor bed and graft autogenous bone block with or without a e-PTFE membrane, in osteopenia induced rats. To this end, we used forty-eight Wistar rats weighing about 300g, in which, with the aid of 4.1 mm trephine a graft was removed from the parietal bone and fixed to the surface of the left mandibular ramus. The animals were randomly divided into four experimental groups: Group 1 (n=12): SHAM operated and autogenous bone graft only; Group 2 (n=12): SHAM and autogenous bone graft covered by e-PTFE membrane; Group 3 (n=12): ovariectomized rats (OVX) and autogenous bone graft only; Group 4 (n=12): OVX and autogenous bone graft covered by e-PTFE membrane. The animals in each group were sacrificed at three time periods: 21, 45 and 60 days, each time with 4 animals per group. The specimens were decalcified and included, the sections were stained with HE and subjected to histological and histomorphometric analysis in light microscopy. The results of the ANOVA showed that the variables on the condition (OVZ and SHAM), and the time (21, 45 and 60 days) were statistically significant, and can be established with the Tukey test (5%) that the period 21-day differs significantly from the periods of 45 and 60 days, which did not differ among themselves. The descriptive histological analysis showed integration of the graft in all animals. It was concluded that the initial integration of the graft bed was negatively affected in the presence of induced osteopenia, and that the use or not of a e-PTFE membrane did not interfere in the process of integration
