There were constriction rings in the interphalangeal joints of hands and in the thigh, shortening of the lower limb and atrophic left gastrocnemius muscle. These findings belong to the described syndrome, which is uncommon and has no genetic implication. Personal antecedent: convulsive syndrome and corrective surgery for congenital bent foot.

No presente estudo foram investigadas as freqüências das mutações no éxon 1 do gene MBL em um grupo de 128 pacientes com Aids, 116 portadores assintomáticos da infecção pelo HIV-1, 84 mulheres soronegativas profissionais do sexo, com comportamentos de alto risco e 99 indivíduos controles soronegativos, com o objetivo de avaliar a ocorrência de uma possível associação entre os polimorfismos neste gene e a infecção pelo HIV-1. A identificação dos alelos MBL *A, *B, *C e *D foi realizada por meio da reação em cadeia mediada pela polimerase, utilizando sequências de iniciadores específicos e posterior digestão enzimática (RFLP). As análises das frequências alélicas e genotípicas do éxon 1 não mostraram qualquer diferença significativa entre pacientes soropositivos (assintomáticos e Aids) e soronegativos (controle e controle de alto risco) (p>0,05). Não foram observadas associações significativas entre a presença de co-infecções e as variantes alélicas. Entretanto, tuberculose, neurotoxoplasmose, candidíase, neurocriptococose e pneumonia foram as co-infecções com maior prevalência. As associações entre o número de linfócitos TCD4+, a carga viral plasmática e os polimorfismos no éxon 1 do gene MBL nos pacientes com Aids e portadores assintomáticos não foram estatisticamente significante. Desse modo, pode-se sugerir a ausência de associação entre estes polimorfismos e a susceptibilidade à infecção pelo HIV-1, destacando a necessidade de estudos adicionais para determinar se estes polimorfismos apresentam qualquer impacto associado à infecção ou a progressão para a Aids.

The syndrome of Gilles de la Tourette (ST) can cause marked distress in several areas of functioning. The literature indicates that children with TS may present diffi culties in relationships with teachers and peers. This case study exploration aimed to discover and describe the perceptions of parents and teachers of child with TS enrolled in regular school, regarding the child-school relationships. Interviews were conducted with parents of a 8 years-old child, diagnosed with ST and three educators. Participant observation of everyday children’s school was also performed. The set of reports reveals doubts on the part of respondents to identify involuntary behaviors of the child or to identify intentional actions. It was observed that there is still no connection between parents and educators in meeting the needs of the child. It is assumed that intervention strategies in a multidisciplinary perspective could help parents, educators and health care professionals act in a coordinated way in order to improve the school and social interaction of the child.

The apnea and hypopnea sleep obstructive syndrome is a disorder that affects part of adult population. Some characteristics can come with this syndrome that cause social problems such as snoring and excessive daytime sleepiness, associated many times with pulmonary hypertension and cardiac insufficiency. The dentist who is inserted into a multidisciplinary team is a professional highly regarded for diagnosis and treatment of sleep disorders. Among treatments recommended, therapy with intraoral appliance shows an excellent non invasive alternative, achieving satisfactory results.
