Anàlisi. Disseny i implementació d'una utilitat de Workflow aplicat a una web de gestió d'un centre de Reclamacions i Queixes mitjançant J2EE : una solució amb Struts i EJBs

El treball final de carrera està compost de l¿anàlisi, disseny i implementació d'una utilitat de Workflow que dóna servei a una web per gestionar les reclamacions i queixes d'una empresa. La part del Workflow s'ha pensat per ser totalment configurable a les particularitats d'un determinat aplicatiu i per donar servei a tantes aplicacions com faci falta simultàniament.L'anàlisi i el disseny s'han basat en la metodologia UML dins el paradigma de l'Orientació a Objectes juntament amb diversos patrons de disseny com pot ser el MVC que ha permès separar completament la lògica de negoci (Workflow) de la presentació (Web). Per les 2 parts: Workflow i web s¿ha fet ús d'una arquitectura distribuïda.

Surgical outcomes following repeat non-penetrating glaucoma filtration surgery at a tertiary referral centre

Purpose:To determine the surgical outcomes of patients undergoing repeat deep sclerectomies with collagen implant (DSCI) at a tertiary referral centre. Methods:The medical notes of 208 patients undergoing multiple DSCI were reviewed. Those undergoing repeat DSCI were identified and post operative data for each DSCI were analysed. Group A: the first DSCI; group B: second DSCI; group C: third DSCI. Results:Mean age was 66.8 ±13.0 years. At 12 months, percentage of mean IOP reduction in groups were 18%, 24% and 17% respectively. Mean interval to starting glaucoma medications, re-operation, mitomycin injection and goniopuncture all decreased as the number of operations increased. There was a significant reduction in complete success rates between groups A and B and groups B and C. Few minor complications were observed in all 3 groups. Conclusions:Despite the possibility of bleb independent outflow pathways in patients undergoing non-penetrating surgery, there are significantly reduced success rates in eyes undergoing repeat DSCI. This has important implications for the choice of subsequent operations in patients who have failed non-penetrating filtration surgery.

Infection by Mycobacterium leprae of household contacts of lepromatous leprosy patients from a post-elimination leprosy region of Colombia

The Leprosy Control Program of Antioquia, (post-elimination leprosy state of Colombia), had registered by 1999, 56 lepromatous leprosy patients and their household contacts (HHC). Our interest was to detect Mycobacterium leprae infection in these HHC. Clinical examination, acid-fast bacillary staining (AFB) in nasal secretions, and slit skin samples, IgM anti-PGL-I in serum and Lepromine A (Mitsuda) reactivity were tested. Two hundred forty eight HHC were studied, 49% were male. After clinical examination, two HHC were diagnosed as multi bacillary patients; 13% showed positive IgM anti-PGL-I titers; Mitsuda reaction (> 4 mm) was positive in 59%; AFB was negative in all samples, except in the two new patients. HHC were classified according to test results.Group 1: two new multi bacillary patients. Group 2: 15 HHC seropositive, Mitsuda-negative. Group 3: 13 HHC seropositive, Mitsuda-positive. Group 4: 130 HHC seronegative, Mitsuda-positive. Group 5: 88 HHC seronegative, Mitsuda-negative. These results are an indication that the transmission of the infection is still happening in a region considered in the post elimination phase. The two new patients represent an infection source for others contacts, and groups 2 and 3 are infected HHC that could develop the disease in future. Follow up of high risk population is necessary to achieve real elimination of leprosy.

Isolation and isoenzyme characterization of Leishmania (Viannia) braziliensis from a case of human cutaneous leishmaniasis in northeast centre of the state of São Paulo

The diagnosis of human cutaneous leishmaniasis in small towns is sometimes made without the species identification of the Leishmania, even in areas without previous epidemiological surveys. Here we report the isolation of a Leishmania strain from a patient of Rincão, state of São Paulo, that was identified by isoenzyme characterization as L. (Viannia) braziliensis. Sand fly collections were made in the area where the patient live in order to investigate the likely vector species.

Need of reduced and harmonized bureaucracy in multi-centre clinical research - a case-report from a Swiss trial

Introduction We launched an investigator-initiated study(ISRCTN31181395) to evaluate the potential benefit of pharmacokinetic-guided dosage individualization of imatinib for leukaemia patients followed in public and private sectors. Following approval by the research ethics committee (REC) of the coordinating centre, recruitment throughout Switzerland necessitated to submit the protocol to 11 cantonal RECs.Materials and Methods We analysed requirements and evaluation procedures of the 12 RECs with associated costs.Results 1-18 copies of the dossier, in total 4300 printed pages, were required (printing/posting costs: ~300 CHF) to meet initial requirements. Meeting frequencies of RECs ranged between 2 weeks and 2 months, time from submission to first feedback took 2-75 days. Study approval was obtained from a chairman, a subor the full committee, the evaluation work being invoiced by 0-1000 CHF (median: 750 CHF, total: 9200 CHF). While 5 RECs gave immediate approval, the other 6 rose in total 38 queries before study release, mainly related to wording in the patient information, leading to 7 different final versions approved. Submission tasks employed an investigator half-time over about 6 months.Conclusion While the necessity of clinical research evaluation by independent RECs is undisputed, there is a need of further harmonization and cooperation in evaluation procedures. Current administrative burden is indeed complex, time-consuming and costly. A harmonized electronic application form, preferably compatible with other regulatory bodies and European countries, could increase transparency, improve communication, and encourage academic multi-centre clinical research in Switzerland.

Hepatitis B virus screening in contacts of blood donors with antibodies against core protein (anti-HBc), but without surface antigen (HBsAg)

To increase blood safety Brazil introduced screening for anti-HBc among blood donors in 1993. There was a decrease in the hepatitis B virus (HBV) transmission, but this measure identified a great number of HBsAg-negative, anti-HBc-positive donors. Surveillance policy determines that contacts of HBV carriers should be screened to HBV markers, but there is no recommendation about how to guide contacts of HBsAg-negative, anti-HBc-positive donors. Aiming to evaluate whether the contacts of this group are at greater risk for HBV infection, a cross-sectional study was performed to compare prevalence of HBV infection between contacts of HBsAg-positive blood donors (group I) and contacts of HBsAg-negative, anti-HBc-positive donors (group II). Contacts were submitted to a questionnaire and blood tests for HBV markers. In group I (n = 143), 53 (37.1%) were anti-HBc-positive and 11 (7.7%) were HBsAg-positive. In group II (n = 111), there were 9 and 0.9%, respectively. HBV exposure was associated with group I, sexual activity, blood transfusion, being one of the donor's parents, and living for more than ten years with the donor. Regarding the families as sample units, it was more common to find at least one member with HBV markers (p < 0.05) among the families of group I compared to group II. Contacts of HBsAg-negative, anti-HBc-positive individuals presented a much lower risk of having already been exposed to HBV and there is no need to screen them for HBV in low to moderate prevalence populations.
