OBJECTIVE: to describe elderly mortality from cardiovascular and respiratory diseases and neoplasms in Marilia (SP). METHODS: this is a descriptive study of mortality from three diseases as defined by the 10th International Classification of Diseases, between 1998-2000 and 2005-2007. Mortality Information System records were used. Mortality rates by age and sex were calculated. RESULTS: circulatory diseases were the main causes of death among the elderly (39.25%). Neoplasm decline was noticed in both sexes and in those aged 60-69, particularly prostate cancer in men (-83.86%) and breast cancer (-70.96%) in this age group. Deaths from respiratory diseases increased in patients aged 80 and older: 39.31% in men and 57.92% in women. CONCLUSION: mortality from circulatory diseases and neoplasms among the elderly showed a decline, with increased mortality from respiratory system problems in patients 80 years of age and older.

According to the National Institute of Cancer – INCA, 466.730 new cancer cases will occur in Brazil in 2009. Prostate and Lung cancer in man are the most incident types (in exception of the non-melanoma cancer). The brachytherapy with 125-iodine sources is an important method of prostate cancer treatment. The implant with iodine-125 seeds uses aproximately 100 seeds that are imported impossibilitating the treatment in large scale. For this reason, a multidisciplinary group was created at the Energetic and Nuclear Research Institute – Radiation Technology Center (IPEN –CTR / SP) to develop a national 125-iodine source and established a facility for local production. The seeds manufacture in Brazil will diminish the cost of treatment and prostate brachytherapy will be offered to more patients. This work aim is to observe and discuss the methods used in seeds manufacture there are being developed in Brazil and to present an prostate cancer case folloied in A.C. Camargo Hospital. The 125-iodine is adsorbed in an silver wire, then deposited at titanium coat. The weld is made by an process of plasm sealing. The seeds goes through several test to guarantee that there is no leakage. The result is an high quality and cheaper product. The implant tecnique is an fast and save procedure. The medical physicst preplan the case to stipulate the quantity of seeds there will be used. At the dat of the implant the medical physicst replan the procedure due to changes of volume in the organ. That assure the correct dose distribution in the target. Besides, the 125-iodine low energy is absorbed at the volume of interrest saving sourronding healthy tissues such as the rectum and the urethra

As expectativas da Organização Mundial de Saúde para o ano de 2030 são que o número de mortes por câncer seja de aproximadamente 13,2 milhões, evidenciando a elevada parcela desta doença no problema de saúde mundial. Com relação ao câncer de próstata, de acordo com o Instituto Nacional do Câncer, o número de casos diagnosticados no mundo em 2012 foi de aproximadamente 1,1 milhão, enquanto que no Brasil os dados indicam a incidência de 68 mil novos casos. O tratamento deste tipo de neoplasia pode ser realizado com cirurgia (prostatectomia) ou radioterapia. Dentre a radioterapia, podemos destacar a técnica de braquiterapia, a qual consiste na introdução (implante) de pequenas fontes radioativas (sementes) no interior da próstata, onde será entregue um valor elevado de dose no volume de tratamento e baixa dose nos tecidos ao redor. No Brasil, a classe médica estima uma demanda de aproximadamente 8000 sementes/mês, sendo o custo unitário de cada semente de pelo menos U$ 26,00. A Associação Americana de Físicos na Medicina publicou alguns documentos descrevendo quais parâmetros e análises devem ser realizadas para avaliações da distribuição de dose, como por exemplo, os parâmetros Constante de taxa de dose, Função radial e Função de anisotropia. Estes parâmetros podem ser obtidos através de medidas experimentais da distribuição de dose ou por simulações computacionais. Neste trabalho foram determinados os parâmetros dosimétricos da semente OncoSeed-6711 da empresa Oncura-GEHealthcare e da semente desenvolvida pelo Grupo de Dosimetria de Fontes de Braquiterapia do Centro de Tecnologia das Radiações (CTR IPEN-CNEN/SP) por simulação computacional da distribuição de dose utilizando o código MCNP5, baseado no Método de Monte Carlo. A semente 6711 foi modelada, assim como um sistema dosimétrico constituído por um objeto simulador cúbico de 30x30x30 cm3 preenchido com água. Os valores obtidos da semente 6711 foram comparados com alguns apresentados na literatura, onde o parâmetro Constante de taxa de dose apresentou erro relativo em relação ao valor publicado no TG- 43 de 0,1%, sendo que os outros parâmetros analisados também apresentaram boa concordância com os valores publicados na literatura. Deste modo, pode-se considerar que os parâmetros utilizados nas simulações (espectro, modelagem geométrica e avaliação de resultados) estão compatíveis com outros estudos, sendo estes parâmetros também utilizados nas simulações da semente do IPEN. Considerando as análises de incerteza estatística, os valores obtidos da semente do IPEN são semelhantes aos valores da semente 6711.

This thesis was performed in four chapters, at the theoretical level, focused mainly on electronic density. In the first chapter, we have applied an undergraduate minicourse of Diels-Alder reaction in Federal University of Rio Grande do Norte. By using computational chemistry tools students could build the knowledge by themselves and they could associate important aspects of physical-chemistry with Organic Chemistry. In the second chapter, we studied a new type of chemical bond between a pair of identical or similar hydrogen atoms that are close to electrical neutrality, known as hydrogen-hydrogen (H-H) bond. In this study performed with complexed alkanes, provides new and important information about their stability involving this type of interaction. We show that the H-H bond playing a secondary role in the stability of branched alkanes in comparison with linear or less branched isomers. In the third chapter, we study the electronic structure and the stability of tetrahedrane, substituted tetrahedranes and silicon and germanium parents, it was evaluated the substituent effect on the carbon cage in the tetrahedrane derivatives and the results indicate that stronger electron withdrawing groups (EWG) makes the tetrahedrane cage slightly unstable while slight EWG causes a greater instability in the tetrahedrane cage. We showed that the sigma aromaticity EWG and electron donating groups (EDG) results in decrease and increase, respectively, of NICS and D3BIA aromaticity indices. In addition, another factor can be utilized to explain the stability of tetra-tert-butyltetrahedrane as well as HH bond. GVB and ADMP were also used to explain the stability effect of the substituents bonded to the carbon of the tetrahedrane cage. In the fourth chapter, we performed a theoretical investigation of the inhibitory effect of the drug abiraterone (ABE), used in the prostate cancer treatment as CYP17 inhibitor, comparing the interaction energies and electron density of the ABE with the natural substrate, pregnenolone (PREG). Molecular dynamics and docking were used to obtain the CYP1ABE and CYP17-PREG complexes. From molecular dynamics was obtained that the ABE has higher diffusion trend water CYP17 binding site compared to the PREG. With the ONIOM (B3LYP:AMBER) method, we find that the interaction electronic energy of ABE is 21.38 kcal mol-1 more stable than PREG. The results obtained by QTAIM indicate that such stability is due a higher electronic density of interactions between ABE and CYP17
