RESUMO

Introduction: Two parameters of high-resolution esophageal manometry are used to observe the function of the esophagogastric junction (EGJ): the anatomical morphology of the EGJ and contractile vigor, which is evaluated with the esophagogastric junction contractile integral (EGJ-CI). To date, how these parameters behave in different gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) phenotypes has not been evaluated. Materials and methods: An analytical observational study evaluated patients with GERD confirmed by pH-impedance testing and endoscopy undergoing high-resolution esophageal manometry. The anatomical morphology of the EGJ and EGJ-CI was assessed and compared between reflux phenotypes: acid, non-acid, erosive, and non-erosive. Results: 72 patients were included (63% women, mean age: 54.9 years), 81.9% with acid reflux and 25% with erosive esophagitis. In the latter, a decrease in EGJ-CI (median: 15.1 vs. 23, p = 0.04) and a more significant proportion of patients with type IIIa and IIIb EGJ (83.3% vs 37.1%, p < 0.01) were found. No significant differences existed in the manometric parameters of patients with and without acid and non-acid reflux. Conclusion: In our population, EGJ-CI significantly decreased in patients with erosive GERD, suggesting that it could be used to predict this condition in patients with GERD. This finding is also related to a higher proportion of type III EGJ and lower pressure at end-inspiration of the lower esophageal sphincter in this reflux type.


Introducción: Para observar la función de la unión esofagogástrica (UEG) se utilizan dos parámetros de la manometría esofágica de alta resolución: la morfología anatómica de la UEG y el vigor contráctil, el cual se evalúa con la integral de contractilidad distal de la unión esofagogástrica (IC-UEG). Hasta el momento, no se ha evaluado cómo se comportan estos parámetros en los diferentes fenotipos de enfermedad por reflujo gastroesofágico (ERGE). Metodología: Estudio observacional analítico en el que se evaluaron pacientes con ERGE confirmado por pH-impedanciometría y endoscopia, llevados a manometría esofágica de alta resolución. Se evaluó la morfología anatómica de la UEG y la IC-UEG, y se comparó entre los diferentes fenotipos de reflujo: ácido, no ácido, erosivo y no erosivo. Resultados: Se incluyó a 72 pacientes (63% mujeres, edad media: 54,9 años), 81,9% con reflujo ácido y 25% con esofagitis erosiva. En este último grupo se encontró una disminución de la IC-UEG (mediana: 15,1 frente a 23, p = 0,04) y una mayor proporción de pacientes con UEG tipo IIIa y IIIb (83,3% frente a 37,1%, p < 0,01). No se encontraron diferencias significativas en los parámetros manométricos de los pacientes con y sin reflujo ácido y no ácido. Conclusión: En nuestra población, la IC-UEG estuvo significativamente disminuida en los pacientes con ERGE erosivo, lo que sugiere que podría ser utilizada como un predictor de esta condición en pacientes con ERGE. Este hallazgo también se relaciona con mayor proporción de UGE tipo III y menor presión al final de la inspiración del esfínter esofágico inferior en este tipo de reflujo.

RESUMO

Overweight and obesity are a public health problem and in 1997 obesity was recognized as a global epidemic by the World Health Organization (WHO). Overweight and obesity affect almost 60% of adults and one in three children in Europe according to the most recent WHO report. Objectively, gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is defined as the presence of characteristic esophageal mucosal damage assessed by endoscopy and/or the demonstra-tion of pathological acid exposure by reflux monitoring studies. The prevalence of GERD is increased in obese patients In overweight and obese patients, the clinical symptoms of GERD are especially present in the supine position and this correlates with more frequent episodes of nocturnal reflux in the 24-h pH monitoring, there is also an increase in the number of refluxes with content acid. In the population with symptoms, digestive endoscopy detects data of erosive esophagitis in 50% of patients, while 24-h pH-impedanciometry diagnoses 92% of patients with non-erosive reflux disease (NERD) The presence of persistent GERD in the mucosa affects esophageal motility and patients may develop ineffective esophageal motility-type disorders, so we will review the interpre-tation of the functional tests that determine motility, which is esophageal manometry, and those that determine reflux gastroesophageal, acid and non-acid, which is the pH measure-ment with or without 24-h impedanciometry.

RESUMO

INTRODUCTION: Serum resistin levels have been associated with obesity, visceral fat, and insulin resistance. Its relationship with muscle mass has been less evaluated. OBJECTIVES: to evaluate the relationship between muscle mass determined by electrical bioimpedance and circulating resistin levels in obese women over 60 years of age. METHODS: We conducted a cross-sectional study in 313 obese women. Anthropometric data (weight, height, body mass index (BMI) and waist circumference), BIA parameters (total fat mass (TFM), fat-free mass (FFM), fat-free mass index (FFMI)), skeletal muscle mass (SMM) and skeletal muscle mass index (SMI)), blood pressure and laboratory tests were recorded. RESULTS: Patients were divided into two different groups according to the mean value of SMI (11.93 kg/m2): low SMI versus high SMI. In the low SMI group, the resistin levels were higher than the resistin levels in the high SMI group (delta value: 2.8 + 0.3 ng/dl:p = 0.01). Serum resistin levels are inversely correlated with FFM, FFMI, SMM, and SMI. This adipokine shows a positive correlation with insulin, HOMA-IR and PCR levels. In the model with SMI as the dependent variable, resistin levels explained 12% of the variability in muscle mass (Beta -0.38, 95% CI -0.91 to -0.11). CONCLUSIONS: Serum resistin levels are associated with low skeletal muscle mass in obese women over 60 years of age.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: Recent guidelines made recommendations for the management of gastroesophageal reflux in patients with esophageal atresia (EA). However, the timing for some diagnostic tests remained somehow unclear. This investigation studied the tests for gastroesophageal reflux in children aged one year old and children aged two or three. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Patients with EA who underwent Multichannel Intraluminal Impedance-pH monitoring (MII-pH) and endoscopy-histology were studied retrospectively. Patients aged one when the test was performed were the YO group and patients aged two or three years old formed the OL group. Substantially impaired MII-pH was defined as total number of reflux episodes >105 or >85 (depending on age), or reflux index >10%. Substantially impaired endoscopy was defined as erosive esophagitis or Barrett's esophagus. Substantially impaired histology was defined as moderate-severe esophagitis or Barrett's esophagus. Conventional parameters and substantially impaired values of the tests were compared. RESULTS: Twenty-four patients were studied. Twenty-three MII-pH were performed (12 in YO and 11 in OL): percentages of abnormal conventional parameters of MII-pH were not significantly different in both groups. Twenty endoscopies with biopsies were performed (7 in YO and 13 in OL): percentages of esophagitis were not significantly different. Interestingly, 26.9% of all the tests performed in YO were substantially impaired vs. 10.8% of all the tests in OL (χ2 = 2.7; p = 0.1). CONCLUSION: Considering the percentage of alarming results of diagnostic tests in the YO group it would be advisable that patients with EA undergo MII-pH and endoscopy-histology at one year of age.


OBJETIVOS: Recientemente se han publicado recomendaciones para el manejo del reflujo gastroesofágico en pacientes con atresia de esófago (AE). Sin embargo, el momento de realización de algunas pruebas no está completamente aclarado. Esta investigación evalúa las pruebas para reflujo gastroesofágico en niños de 1 año y niños de 2-3 años. MATERIAL Y METODOS: Estudio retrospectivo de pacientes con AE sometidos a impedanciometría-phmetría (IMpH) y a endoscopia-histología. Los pacientes con 1 año en el momento de la prueba formaron el grupo MEN, y los pacientes con 2-3 años, el grupo MAY. Se consideró IMpH sustancialmente alterada aquella con un número total de reflujos >105 o >85 (según la edad), o un índice de reflujo >10%. La endoscopia se consideró sustancialmente alterada si presentaba esofagitis erosiva o esófago de Barrett. La histología se consideró sustancialmente alterada si presentaba esofagitis severa-moderada o esófago de Barrett. Se compararon los parámetros convencionales y los sustancialmente alterados. RESULTADOS: Se estudiaron 24 pacientes. Se realizaron 23 IMpH (12 en el grupo MEN y 11 en el MAY); los porcentajes de los parámetros convencionales patológicos no fueron estadísticamente diferentes en ambos grupos. Se realizaron 20 endoscopias (7 en el grupo MEN y 13 en el MAY); los porcentajes de esofagitis no fueron estadísticamente diferentes. El 26,9% de todas las pruebas en el grupo MEN resultaron sustancialmente alteradas, frente al 10,8% en el MAY (χ2 = 2,7; p = 0,1). CONCLUSION: Teniendo en cuenta el porcentaje de resultados alarmantes en el grupo MEN, sería recomendable realizar una IMpH y una endoscopia con biopsias a los pacientes con AE a la edad de un año.

RESUMO

El eructo es un síntoma frecuente en Pediatría que socialmente está mal considerado y puede tener consecuencias negativas en la calidad de vida del paciente. No obstante, no son muchas las publicaciones pediátricas al respecto. Según su origen, se pueden clasificar como eructos supragástricos o gástricos, con una fisiología distinta y que pueden ser síntomas de patologías subyacentes tanto físicas como psicológicas. Se revisa la fisiología del eructo y el diagnóstico diferencial a propósito de dos casos diagnosticados de eructos supragástricos.Caso clínico 1: varón de 14 años con cuadro de 15 días de eructos hasta 20-30 por minuto, sensación de imputación esofágica y dolor abdominal. El dolor mejora con omeprazol, pero los eructos persisten; se realiza endoscopia y tránsito esofágico superior que resultan normales. Mejora tras logopedia e inicio de técnicas de relajación.Caso clínico 2: varón de 10 años con cuadro de 19 días de eructos de más de 15 por minuto, sin otros síntomas digestivos, pero con sintomatología ansiosa. Mejoría tras tratamiento psicológico.Ambos tipos de eructo presentan una fisiología distinta, de manera que en el eructo supragástrico el aire no proviene del estómago. El esfínter esofágico inferior permanece cerrado. Los dos tipos son distinguibles mediante pH-impedanciometría. Conclusión: una cuidadosa anamnesis puede establecer el diagnóstico de sospecha del origen del eructo antes de recurrir a pruebas complementarias y permite orientar el tratamiento más adecuado para cada paciente.

Belching is a frequent symptom in paediatrics that is negatively perceived in our society and can have a negative impact on the quality of life of patients. However, there is a dearth of data on the subject for the paediatric population. Depending on the origin, belching can be classified as supragastric or gastric, has a different physiology and may be a manifestation of underlying physical or psychological disorders. We review the physiology of belching and the differential diagnosis of 2 cases of supragastric belching.Clinical case 1: male patient aged 14 years presenting with belching of 15 days’ duration at a rate of 20 to 30 burps per minute, sensation of oesophageal impaction and abdominal pain. The pain improved with omeprazole but the belching persisted, the findings of endoscopy and upper oesophageal transit were normal. The patient improved with speech therapy and initiation of relaxation techniques.Clinical case 2: male patient aged 10 years-old male presenting with belching of 19 days’ duration at a rate of more than 15 burps per minute, with no other digestive symptoms but with anxiety symptoms. The patient improved with psychological treatment.The underlying physiology of belching was different in each patient, as in supragastric belching the air does not come from the stomach and the lower oesophageal sphincter remains closed. These 2 types can be differentiated by pH-impedance. Conclusion: A careful anamnesis can establish the suspected diagnosis of the origin of the belching before resorting to diagnostic tests, and can guide the most appropriate treatment for each patient.

RESUMO

Antecedentes: los pacientes oncológicos son un grupo de alto riesgo nutricional. Los suplementos orales nutricionales (SON) pueden ayudar a mejorar su situación nutricional. Objetivo: el objetivo de nuestro estudio fue evaluar en un estudio en vida real la efectividad sobre los parámetros nutricionales y la calidad de vida de un SON enriquecido con ω-3 en pacientes ambulatorios oncológicos. Material y métodos: se reclutaron 35 pacientes oncológicos ambulatorios que recibieron 2 SON al día. Se realizaron: valoración bioquímica y antropométrica, impedanciometría, encuesta nutricional, test Malnutrition Universal Screening Tool (MUST) y test de calidad de vida EQ5D, antes y a los 3 meses de intervención. Resultados: la edad media fue de 65,4 ± 10,7 años (18 mujeres/17 hombres). La cumplimentación media del grupo fue de un 81,7 ± 7,2 %. Durante la intervención aumentaron los niveles de proteínas totales (1,5 ± 0,2 g/dl; p = 0,01), albúmina (0,9 ± 0,1 mg/dl; p = 0,04) y transferrina (53,9 ± 21,1 mg/dl; p = 0,02). Al inicio del estudio, un 100 % de los pacientes presentaban en el test MUST la categoría de alto riesgo nutricional. Tras la intervención, un 34,3 % (n = 12) presentaban la categoría de bajo riesgo nutricional, un 51,4 % (n = 18) presentaban en el test MUST la categoría de moderado riesgo nutricional, y solo un 14,3 % (n = 5) presentaban la categoría de alto riesgo nutricional; previamente, el 100 % de los pacientes tenían la categoría alto riesgo (p = 0,02). La puntuación total del test de calidad de vida aumentó significativamente (0,51 ± 0,06 vs. 0,84 ± 0,03 puntos; p = 0,01), mejorando cualitativamente las 5 dimensiones. Conclusiones: la utilización de un SON enriquecido con ω-3 en pacientes oncológicos ambulatorios en condiciones de vida real muestra un efecto beneficioso sobre los parámetros nutricionales y la calidad de vida.

Background: cancer patients are a group at high nutritional risk. Oral nutritional supplementation (ONS) can improve nutritional status. Objective: the objective of our study was to evaluate the effectiveness on nutritional parameters and quality of life of a ω-3-enriched ONS in oncology outpatients in a real-world study. Material and methods: a total of 35 outpatient cancer patients who received 2 ONS per day were recruited. Chemistry, anthropometric, impedance measurement, nutritional survey, malnutrition universal screening tool (MUST) test, and EQ5D quality of life test were all used before and after 3 months of intervention. Results: mean age was 65.4 ± 10.7 years (18 females/17 males). Mean completion of the group was 81.7 ± 7.2 %. During the intervention, total protein (1.5 ± 0.2 g/dL; p = 0.01), albumin (0.9 ± 0.1 mg/dL; p = 0.04), and transferrin (53.9 ± 21.1 mg/dL; p = 0.02) levels increased. At the beginning of the study, 100 % of the patients were in the high nutritional risk category according to MUST. After the intervention, 34.3 % (n = 12) were in the low nutritional risk category, 51.4 % (n = 18) in the moderate nutritional risk category, and only 14.3 % (n = 5) in the category of high nutritional risk; previously, 100 % of patients had high nutritional risk (p = 0.02). The total score in the quality of life test increased significantly (0.51 ± 0.06 vs 0.84 ± 0.03 points; p = 0.01), with improvement in 5 dimensions. Conclusions: the use of a ω-3-enriched ONS in a real-world study with cancer outpatients showed a beneficial effect on nutritional parameters and quality of life. (AU)

RESUMO

Antecedentes El aumento de la presión intraabdominal (PIA) se ha correlacionado con elevación de la creatinina en pacientes con insuficiencia cardíaca con fracción de eyección ventricular izquierda gravemente deprimida (ICFEr). Sin embargo, dicha variable no se ha explorado en pacientes más estables o con insuficiencia cardíaca y fracción de eyección preservada (ICFEp). Pacientes y método Estudio observacional, prospectivo y descriptivo consistente en la medición de la PIA en pacientes ingresados por insuficiencia cardíaca (IC) descompensada. Se estratificó la muestra según la fracción de eyección ventricular izquierda (FEVI) con un punto de corte del 50%, con el objetivo de analizar la PIA, así como las características basales y el grado de congestión empleando la ecografía clínica y la impedanciometría. Resultados Se incluyeron un total de 56 pacientes, 22 con ICFEr y 34 con ICFEp. Los pacientes con ICFEr presentaron una mayor prevalencia de cardiopatía isquémica (11 vs. 6; p = 0,010) y EPOC/asma (6 vs. 2%; p = 0,025). La PIA fue más alta en pacientes con ICFEr (17,2 mmHg vs. 13,3 mmHg; p = 0,004), sin diferencias en la función renal al ingreso según la FEVI (CKD-EPI creatinina) (ICFEr 55,0 mL/min/1,73 m2 [32,6-83,6] vs. ICFEp 55,0 mL/min/1,73 m2 [44,0-74,9]; p = 0,485). Los pacientes con ICFEr presentaron un perfil más congestivo estimado por ecografía (colapso de la cava inferior [26% vs. 50%; p = 0,001]), impedanciometría (agua corporal total al ingreso: 46 L vs. 41 L; p = 0,052 y a las 72 horas 50,2 L vs. 39,1 L; p = 0,038) y concentración de CA125 (68 U/mL vs. 39 U/mL; p = 0,037). Conclusiones Durante los episodios de descompensación los pacientes con ICFEr tienen mayor elevación de la PIA y un mayor grado de congestión sistémica (AU)


Background The increase in intraabdominal pressure (IAP) has been correlated with increased creatinine levels in patients with heart failure with severely reduced left ventricular ejection fraction (HFrEF). However, IAP has not been examined in more stable patients or those with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). Patients and method We conducted an observational, prospective descriptive study that measured the IAP of patients hospitalised for decompensated heart failure (HF). The sample was stratified according to left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), with a cut-off of 50%. The objective was to analyse the IAP, the baseline characteristics and degree of congestion using clinical ultrasonography and impedance audiometry. Results The study included 56 patients, 22 with HFrEF and 34 with HFpEF. The patients with HFrEF presented a higher prevalence of ischaemic heart disease (11% vs. 6%; p = 0.010) and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease/asthma (6% vs. 2%; p = 0.025). The IAP was higher in the patients with HFrEF (17.2 vs. 13.3 mmHg; p = 0.004), with no differences in renal function at admission according to the LVEF (CKD-EPI creatinine) (HFrEF 55.0 mL/min/1.73 m2 [32.6-83.6] vs. HFpEF 55.0 mL/min/1.73 m2 [44.0-74.9]; p = 0.485). The patients with HFrEF presented a more congestive profile determined through ultrasonography (inferior vena cava collapse [26% vs. 50%; p = 0.001]), impedance audiometry (total body water at admission, 46 L vs. 41 L; p = 0.052; and at 72 h, 50.2 L vs. 39.1 L; p = 0.038) and CA125 concentration (68 U/mL vs. 39 U/mL; p = 0.037). Conclusions During the decompensation episodes, the patients with HFrEF had a greater increase in IAP and a higher degree of systemic congestion (AU)

RESUMO

Introducción: En el año 2002 un artefacto explosivo improvisado estalló sobre la población civil afrocolombiana refugiada en una iglesia y generó una masacre. Los sobrevivientes presentaron importantes afectaciones en la salud, sin un estudio completo hasta la fecha. Objetivo: Establecer el perfil de salud auditiva en la comunidad de sobrevivientes a la masacre de Bojayá, Chocó. Métodos: A partir de evaluaciones clínicas audiológicas con anamnesis, otoscopia, audiometría, logoaudiometría e impedanciometría en 61 personas supervivientes, se efectuó un estudio descriptivo incluyendo variables sociodemográficas, factores de riesgo, signos y síntomas auditivos, y diagnósticos audiológicos. Resultados: Un 72,13 por ciento de los participantes fueron mujeres. Además de la exposición al estallido de artefacto explosivo improvisado, que les afectó tanto en recinto cerrado (78,69 %), como en exteriores adyacentes (3,28 por ciento) o ubicaciones más distantes; los principales factores de riesgo auditivo encontrados fueron la infección de oído previa (26,87 por ciento). Un 70,49 por ciento sufría de tinnitus y 14,75 por ciento de vértigo. El 81,97 por ciento de sobrevivientes (n = 50) presentaron alteraciones en su audición, sin estudio previo. Un 81 por ciento de quienes se encontraron con algún grado de hipoacusia, reportaban el antecedente de exposición al estallido dentro del espacio cerrado de la iglesia. Conclusiones: El perfil de salud auditiva de la comunidad de sobrevivientes a la masacre de Bojayá, Chocó, se caracterizó por la presencia de dificultades auditivas, tinnitus, otalgia, vértigo, antecedentes de trauma acústico y perforaciones timpánicas. El principal diagnóstico encontrado fue hipoacusia conductiva bilateral(AU)


Introduction: In 2002 an improvised explosive device exploded over a church with Afro-Colombian civilians sheltering there, generating a massacre. The survivors presented important health problems without a complete study to date. Objective: To establish the hearing health profile in the community of survivors of the Bojayá Massacre, Chocó. Methods: Based on clinical audiological evaluations with anamnesis, otoscopy, audiometry, speech audiometry and impedance in 61 survivors, a descriptive study was carried out including sociodemographic variables, risk factors, auditory signs and symptoms, and audiological diagnoses. Results: 72.13 percent of the participants were women. In addition to exposure to the explosion of an improvised explosive device, which affected indoors (78.69 percent), and in adjacent outdoors (3.28 percent) or more distant locations, the main auditory risk factors found were previous infection of ears (26.87 percent). 70.49 percent suffered from tinnitus and 14.75 percent from vertigo. 81.97 percent of survivors (n=50) presented alterations in their hearing, without previous study. 81 percent of those who encountered some degree of hearing loss reported a history of exposure to the blast within the closed space of the church. Conclusions: The hearing health profile of the community of survivors of the Bojayá massacre, Chocó, was characterized by the presence of hearing difficulties, tinnitus, earache, vertigo, a history of acoustic trauma, and tympanic perforations. The main diagnosis found was bilateral conductive hearing loss(AU)

RESUMO

Resumen Introducción: La enfermedad por reflujo gastroesofágico (ERGE) refractaria puede conducir a complicaciones potenciales como la esofagitis persistente, estenosis esofágica, anillo de Schatzki y esófago de Barrett. Este estudio describe la motilidad en pacientes con ERGE refractaria y su relación con síntomas esofágicos. Método: Se realizó un estudio observacional analítico a partir de una cohorte retrospectiva en pacientes con diagnóstico de ERGE refractaria y síntomas esofágicos a quienes se les realizó manometría esofágica de alta resolución más impedanciometría. Se describen las características clínicas y demográficas, y la asociación entre los trastornos manométricos y los síntomas esofágicos. Resultados: Se incluyeron 133 pacientes (edad promedio: 54,1 ± 12,5 años). La pirosis y regurgitación (69,2 %) y la disfagia esofágica (13,5 %) fueron los síntomas más comunes. La motilidad normal (75,2 %), el aclaramiento completo del bolo (75,2 %) y la motilidad esofágica inefectiva (MEI) (18 %) fueron los hallazgos manométricos más frecuentes. La unión gastroesofágica tipos II y IIIb estuvieron presentes en el 35,3% y 33,8 % de los casos, respectivamente. La aperistalsis (3,8 %) y el esófago en martillo neumático (Jackhammer; 0,8 %) fueron infrecuentes. El aclaramiento incompleto del bolo se asoció con disfagia esofágica (p = 0,038) y a MEI (p = 0,008). Ningún síntoma esofágico se relacionó significativamente con trastornos de motilidad. Conclusiones: Los resultados de nuestro estudio sugieren que los trastornos de motilidad son infrecuentes en los pacientes con ERGE refractaria. Adicionalmente, sugieren que la presencia de alteraciones de motilidad esofágica no se relaciona con la presencia de síntomas esofágicos y, por tanto, que el tipo de síntoma presentado no permite predecir la existencia de dichos trastornos.


Abstract Introduction: Refractory gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) can lead to potential complications such as persistent esophagitis, esophageal stricture, Schatzki ring, and Barrett's esophagus. This study describes motility in patients with refractory GERD, and its association with esophageal symptoms. Materials and methods: An analytical observational study was carried out in a retrospective cohort of patients diagnosed with refractory GERD and esophageal symptoms who underwent high-resolution esophageal manometry and impedance testing. Clinical characteristics, demographics, and the association between motility disorders and esophageal symptoms are described. Results: 133 patients were included (mean age 54.1 ± 12.5 years). Heartburn and regurgitation (69.2%), and esophageal dysphagia (13.5%) were the most common symptoms. Normal motility (75.2%), complete bolus clearance (75.2%), and ineffective esophageal motility (IEM) (18%) were the most frequent manometric findings. Type II and IIIb gastroesophageal junction were observed in 35.3% and 33.8% of the cases, respectively. Esophageal aperistalsis (3.8%) and Jackhammer esophagus (0.8%) were rare findings. Incomplete bolus clearance was associated with esophageal dysphagia (p=0.038) and IEM (p=0.008). No esophageal symptoms were significantly related to motility disorders. Conclusions: The results of the present study suggest that motility disorders are rare in patients with refractory GERD. They also suggest that esophageal motility disorders are not associated with the presence of esophageal symptoms and, therefore, the type of symptom experienced does not allow predicting the existence of such disorders.

RESUMO

INTRODUCCIÓN Y OBJETIVO: para realizar un estudio de las inequidades en la atención sanitaria en España, desde la Asociación Española de Pediatría de Atención Primaria (AEPap) se ha planteado analizar si existe una relación entre la cartera de servicios que se aplica en cada comunidad y el gasto sanitario per cápita. MÉTODO: por medio de una encuesta a los vocales autonómicos de la AEPap se ha tratado de responder a 16 preguntas sobre el número de niños por pediatra, la existencia de enfermería pediátrica, el calendario vacunal, tiempos de espera en los servicios de Atención Temprana y psicopedagógicos y disponibilidad de medios diagnósticos (prick test, ecografía, espirometría, test rápido de estreptococo e impedanciometría). Se ha tratado de correlacionar la disponibilidad de estos elementos de la cartera de servicios con el gasto por habitante de las comunidades autónomas (CC. AA.) según los datos del Ministerio de Sanidad. RESULTADOS: existe una correlación de las CC. AA. que tienen un mayor gasto sanitario con menor número de niños por pediatra, disponibilidad de enfermería pediátrica, menores tiempos de espera para los servicios de Atención Temprana y psicopedagógicos y mayor disponibilidad de métodos diagnósticos en las consultas de Atención Primaria. CONCLUSIONES: la cartera de servicios del Sistema Nacional de Salud no se cumple de forma homogénea en toda España. Las CC. AA. con menor gasto por persona ofrecen servicios de menor calidad a la infancia y a la adolescencia de dichas CC. AA., lo que genera inequidad de la oferta sanitaria


INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVE: in order to carry out a study of inequities in health care in Spain, the Spanish Association of Pediatric Primary Care (AEPap) has set out to analyze whether there is a relationship between the portfolio of services that is applied in each Spanish region and health spending per capita. METHOD: through a survey to regional members of AEPap they have tried to answer 16 questions that include: the number of children per pediatrician, the existence of pediatric nursing, the vaccination schedule, waiting times in early and psycho-pedagogical services and the availability of diagnostic means (prick test, ultrasound, spirometry, rapid strep test and impedanciometry)... An attempt has been made to correlate the availability of these elements in the service portfolio with the expenditure per inhabitant of the Spanish regions, called autonomous communities (AC), according to data from the Ministry of Health. RESULTS: there exists a direct correlation between the AC that have a higher health expenditure with having fewer assigned children per pediatrician, the availability of pediatric nursing, shorter waiting times for early care and psychopedagogical services, and a greater availability of diagnostic methods in primary health care consultations. CONCLUSIONS: the portfolio of services of the National Health System is not carried out homogeneously throughout Spain. The Autonomous Communities with the lowest expenditure per person offer lower quality services to childhood and adolescence of these Autonomous Communities, which implies an inequity in the nation's health supply

RESUMO

Resumen La enfermedad por reflujo gastroesofágico (ERGE) se define como el tránsito anormal del contenido gástrico hacia el esófago, que se da por una alteración de la barrera antirreflujo, causando síntomas o complicaciones. Para su correcto diagnóstico y abordaje terapéutico, se requiere de la integración de hallazgos clínicos, endoscópicos y monitorización del pH esofágico en 24 horas con o sin impedanciometría, la cual debe ser realizada con especificaciones técnicas, y su interpretación debe basarse en la mejor evidencia clínica disponible, con el objetivo de tener diagnósticos precisos que permitan tomar las mejores decisiones con los pacientes. Recientemente, en el Consenso de Lyon se han incorporado nuevas directrices para el diagnóstico de ERGE por monitorización de pH esofágico, las cuales se revisan en este artículo.


Abstract Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is defined as the abnormal transit of gastric contents into the esophagus. It is caused by an alteration of the anti-reflux barrier, causing multiple symptoms or complications. In order to achieve accurate diagnosis and proper therapeutic approach, integration of clinical findings, endoscopic findings and 24-hour esophageal pH monitoring, with or without impedancometry, is required. These tests must be performed following technical specifications and their interpretation must be based on the best clinical evidence available to obtain accurate diagnoses that allow making the best decisions to the benefit of patients. Recently, the Lyon Consensus incorporated new guidelines for the diagnosis of GERD by esophageal pH monitoring, which are reviewed in this paper.

RESUMO

INTRODUCTION: Laryngopharyngeal Reflux (LPR) is the retrograde flow of gastric or duodenal contents into the pharynx and larynx, causing inflammation in the upper aerodigestive tract. Traditionally, a pH monitoring study with an acid reflux index was used. The use of multichannel intraluminal impedance testing with pH monitoring (MII-pH) confirms a causal relationship between suspicious symptoms and LPR. OBJECTIVES: To evaluate LPR diagnosed by MII-pH in the pediatric population consulting due to chronic dysphonia and laryngoscopic findings suggestive of LPR, in addition, to measure the concordance between MII-pH and traditional pH monitoring. PATIENTS AND METHOD: Descriptive, prospective study of patients consulting at the Gastroenterology or Otorhinolaryngology polyclinic due to chronic dysphonia, whose nasofibrolaryngoscopy (NFL) was suggestive of LPR. The patients were hospitalized for a 24-hour MII-pH. Patients with a congenital or acquired morbid history were excluded. Pathological LPR was considered if there were 3 or more acid reflux episodes at the pro ximal level in MII-pH. The frequency of traditional pH monitoring and altered MII-pH and the concordance between both methods were evaluated. RESULTS: 12 patients were recruited, 10 men, 6 to 15 years old. On 9/12, pathological LPR was confirmed by MII-pH, of which 2/9 had traditional pH measurements in normal ranges and 7/9 altered pH measurements. In 3 patients, LPR was ruled out by normal proximal MII-pH. The concordance between MII-pH and traditional pH monitoring was acceptable (kappa 0.4). CONCLUSIONS: 75% of the patients with dysphonia and suggestive NFL showed objective evidence of pathological LPR. Since only with the clinical evaluation, NFL and conventional pH monitoring it is not possible to diagnose LPR, we recommend perform MII-pH for greater diag nostic certainty, avoiding unnecessary treatment, and with unwanted effects in 25% of cases.

RESUMO

Introducción: Los niños con síndrome de Down presentan mayor prevalencia de alteraciones de la capacidad auditiva, secundaria a variaciones anatómicas y fisiológicas. En Colombia, no se realiza tamizaje auditivo universal, y no hay datos sobre la prevalencia de hipoacusia en esta población. El propósito de este estudio fue determinar la frecuencia y tipo de estas alteraciones en nuestra población por medio de evaluación audiológica.Pacientes y métodos: Se realizó un estudio de corte trasversal en dos instituciones especializadas en el acompañamiento y terapia de familias de niños con síndrome de Down en Bogotá D. C., Colombia. Entre octubre de 2017 y septiembre de 2018, se realizó audiometría comportamental y/o tonal e impedanciometría en 40 y en 37 niños respectivamente. Los sujetos asistían a las instituciones dos veces por semana y estaban integrados en diferentes grados escolares hasta quinto de primaria. Se estimó la prevalencia y se describieron las características, antecedentes clínicos e hitos del desarrollo del lenguaje. Resultados: Se obtuvo una muestra de 40 niños (22 mujeres) con edades entre 6 y 18 años (media: 11,23). Se encontró antecedente de otitis en 19 sujetos e hipoacusia de leve a moderada en 17 niños, predominantemente, conductiva. Hubo retraso en hitos del desarrollo del lenguaje, en apariencia, no asociado a hipoacusia.Conclusiones: En una muestra de niños con síndrome de Down en Bogotá, se encontró una alta prevalencia de hipoacusia, consistente con resultados de estudios previos. Estos datos resaltan la necesidad de un control estricto de la capacidad auditiva basado en parámetros y guías estandarizadas.


Introduction: Children with Down syndrome have a higher prevalence of hearing disorders, secondary to anatomical and physiological variations. No universal hearing screening is implemented in Colombia, so there are no data available on the prevalence of hearing loss in this population. The objective of this study was to determine the frequency and type of such disorders in this population based on hearing tests.Patients and methods: This was a cross-sectional study conducted at two institutions specialized in accompanying and supporting the families of children with Down syndrome in Bogotá, D.C., Colombia. Between October 2017 and September 2018, a behavioral and/or pure-tone audiometry and an impedance audiometry were done in 40 and 37 children respectively. Subjects attended the institutions twice a week and were integrated at school, up to fifth grade. Prevalence was estimated and characteristics, clinical history, and language developmental milestones were described.Results: The sample was made up of 40 children (22 girls) aged 6-18 years (mean: 11.23). A history of otitis was found in 19 children and of mild to moderate hearing loss, in 17, predominately conductive. A delay in language developmental milestones was observed, apparently not associated with hearing loss. Conclusions: A sample of children with Down syndrome from Bogotá showed a high prevalence of hearing loss, consistent with the results of previous studies. These data stress the need for a strict control of hearing status based on standardized parameters and guidelines.

RESUMO

Gastroesophageal reflux is a frequent condition in the daily life of infants and older children. When reflux causes symptoms, it is called gastroesophageal reflux disease. Different extraesophageal symptoms have been frequently attributed to gastroesophageal reflux, however, new diagnostic techniques available, such as pHmetry with impedance measurement, have allowed us to evaluate and eventually dismiss such relationships. In this article we review the relationship between gastroesophageal reflux and laryngeal pathology, chronic cough, asthma and aspiration. In general terms, the empirical treatment of a presumed reflux is not recommended in asymptomatic patients, in whom its presence is not demonstrated by techniques such as pHmetry with impedance, given that therapeutic response is low and similar to placebo, with potential adverse effects.


El reflujo gastroesofágico es una condición frecuente en la vida diaria de lactantes y niños mayores. Cuando produce síntomas, se denomina enfermedad por reflujo gastroesofágico. Se ha atribuido frecuentemente diferentes síntomas extraesofágicos al reflujo, sin embargo, nuevas técnicas diagnósticas disponibles, como la pHmetría con medición de impedanciometría, han permitido evaluar y eventualmente descartar tales asociaciones. En este artículo se revisa la relación entre el reflujo gastroesofágico y patología laríngea, tos crónica, asma y aspiración. En términos generales, no se recomienda el tratamiento empírico de un supuesto reflujo en pacientes asintomáticos, en quienes tampoco esté demostrada su presencia por técnicas como la pHmetría con impedanciometría, dado que la respuesta terapéutica es baja y similar a placebo, con potenciales efectos adversos.

RESUMO

- Introdução: O lúpus eritematoso sistêmico é uma doença autoimune com formação de complexos imunes e produção de autoanticorpos. Pacientes com lúpus podem apresentar queixas auditivas, seja como resultado de uma doença específica do órgão, ou como parte de uma doença sistêmica. Estes pacientes geralmente são tratados com medicamentos antimaláricos, que também devem ser melhor investigados quanto aos seus efeitos sobre o aparelho auditivo. Objetivo: avaliar o perfil audiológico dos pacientes com lúpus que usam antimaláricos e tentar correlacionar a alteração audiológica à doença ou ao medicamento. Métodos: Foram analisados dados de prontuário médico e realizada a audiometria e impedanciometria de pacientes portadores de lúpus em uso de medicação antimalárica para fins terapêuticos, posteriormente análise dos exames e comparação com a literatura. Resultados: de uma amostra de 47, 1 era homem e 46 mulheres; 7 delas não faziam uso de antimalárico. O tempo de diagnóstico variou de 0,5 a 28 anos. Dos pacientes que tinham lúpus, 69,5% referiram alguma queixa audiológica, sendo a mais prevalente, o zumbido (43,4%). Observa-se que nas frequências de 250 Hz (Valor P: <0,0001), 500 Hz (Valor P: 0,0006) e 4000 Hz (Valor P: 0,0008) essa amostra apresentou alteração audiológica em relação ao grupo controle. Comparando pacientes que usam ATM e os que não usam, estes tiveram um desempenho pior nas frequências de 6000 (Valor P: 0,0104) e 8000 Hz (Valor P: 0,0031). Conclusão: percebe-se que o maior responsável pelas alterações audiológicas manifestas nos exames provavelmente seja o próprio LES.

RESUMO

Background: Hearing results from processes of modulation of the acoustic signal performed by the auditory pathway and cortical activity. Sound detection, location, discrimination, intelligibility in noise and silence require integrity of the auditory system. Objective: To recognize the auditory variability in competent users and examine the relationship of auditory processing abilities with peripheral sensitivity. Methods: 97 normal-hearing participants with comprehensive listening in a second language and/or music were studied with the Spanish version of the Amsterdam Inventory for Auditory Disability and Handicap (S-AIADH), audiometry and impedanciometry. Correlations between S-AIADH scores and audiometric tonal and acoustic thresholds were calculated. Results: Scores in sound distinction, intelligibility in noise and location showed the greatest dispersion. Auditory processing abilities did not correlate significantly with acoustic thresholds and reflexes, except for the intelligibility in noise that was positively associated with the tonal threshold at frequencies 500 and 1000 Hz in both ears. Conclusion: These results indicate a paradox, which reinforces the differentiation between hearing and listening. For a comprehensive approach, the study of hearing requires addressing both peripheral and central auditory processing, where the use of self-report instruments is important.


Introducción: la audición resulta de procesos de modulación de la señal acústica que realiza la vía auditiva y la actividad cortical. La detección de los sonidos, localización, discriminación, inteligibilidad del habla en ruido y en silencio requieren de la integridad funcional del sistema auditivo. Objetivo: reconocer la variabilidad auditiva en usuarios competentes y examinar la relación de las habilidades del procesamiento auditivo con la sensibilidad periférica. Métodos: un total de 97 participantes normoacúsicos con antecedentes de escucha comprensiva en una segunda lengua y/o música fueron valorados con el Inventario de Ámsterdam para la Discapacidad y Rendimiento Auditivo versión español (S-AIADH), audiometría e impedanciometría. Se calcularon las correlaciones entre los puntajes del S-AIADH y los umbrales tonales audiométricos y del reflejo estapedial. Resultados: los subtotales intratest con mayor dispersión pertenecen a la distinción de sonidos, inteligibilidad en ruido y localización. Las habilidades del procesamiento auditivo no se correlacionaron significativamente con los umbrales de detección de sonido y los reflejos estapediales, a excepción de la inteligibilidad en ruido que se asoció positivamente con el umbral tonal en las frecuencias 500 y 1000 Hz en ambos oídos. Conclusión: Estos resultados indican una paradoja, lo cual refuerza la diferenciación entre oír y escuchar. Para un abordaje integral, el estudio de la audición requiere de abordar tanto el procesamiento auditivo periférico como el central, donde el uso de instrumentos de autorreporte es de gran importancia.

RESUMO

Introdução. Alguns fatores de risco para doenças cardiovasculares, entre eles a hipertensão arterial (HA), têm sido cada vez mais prevalentes entre adolescentes brasileiros e acompanham a tendência de crescimento dos casos de excesso de peso, inatividade física, alimentação inadequada e aumento do percentual de gordura corporal nessa população. Objetivo: Avaliar se os níveis pressóricos de adolescentes jovens, frequentadores de escolas públicas estaduais da Região Metropolitana da Grande Vitória - ES, têm relação com o crescimento estatural alcançado e a composição corporal. Método: Estudo epidemiológico, transversal sendo incluídos estudantes de 10 a 14 anos, de ambos os sexos, em escolas públicas da região metropolitana de Vitória-ES As variáveis de estudo foram: peso, idade, estatura, estádio puberal , atividade física e composição corporal. O estado nutricional foi definido pelo índice de massa corporal para idade (IMC/I), em escore z e pelo índice de massa tri ponderal (TriMC). Foram mensuradas as dobras cutâneas bem como os perímetros do braço, circunferência da cintura e razão cintura pela estatura. O percentual de gordura foi definido por impedânciometria elétrica bipolar. A pressão arterial foi categorizada em 3 estágios: pré-hipertensão, hipertensão estágio 1 e hipertensão estágio 2. Resultados: O estudo avaliou 817 adolescentes de 10 a 14 anos, a mediana de idade foi de 12,9 anos, sendo 340 do sexo masculino e 477 do sexo feminino. A prevalência de adolescentes com pressão alterada foi 20,6%, incluindo pré hipertensão e hipertensão. O diagnóstico nutricional identificou excesso de peso em 27,7% adolescentes, sendo que 9,0% deles eram obesos. Em relação ao estádio puberal, observou-se que mais de 50% das meninas atingiram estádio T2- T3 de maturação sexual pelos critérios de Tanner entre 10 e 12 anos e os meninos entre 11 e 13 anos. O índice de massa corpórea (IMC) no sexo feminino apresentou valores acima do encontrado no sexo masculino exceto na idade de 10 anos. Aos 11 e 12 anos o peso e a estatura média do sexo feminino foram maiores quando comparada ao sexo masculino. A média e desvio padrão dos valores encontrados referentes às dobras cutâneas e perímetros corporais foram maiores no sexo feminino quando comparados ao sexo masculino. Não houve correlação entre os valores da estatura para idade e a pressão arterial sistólica ou diastólica. Alteração da adiposidade corporal foi diagnosticada em 149 adolescentes (18,2%) e houve correlação com a prevalência de hipertensão arterial. Conclusões: A estatura final dos adolescentes não apresentou correlação com os níveis de pressão arterial sistólica ou diastólica. Em relação a composição corporal, a variável TriMC foi a que melhor discriminou o risco de pré-hipertensão e hipertensão arterial.


Background: Some risk factors to develop cardiovascular diseases, including high blood pressure, have been more prevailing among Brazilian adolescents. This is related to the growth trend in cases of overweight, physical inactivity, inappropriate eating and increase of percent body fat in this population. Objective: To evaluate if the achieved height growth and the body composition represented by anthropometric data are related to the levels of systolic and diastolic blood pressure in adolescents. Method: Epidemiological study with cross-sectional cohort, which included students from 10 to 14 years old of both sexes, in public schools. The variables of the study were: weight, age, height, pubertal stage and physical activity. The nutritional status was set by the body mass index for age (BMI/age) in z score and by the Tri-ponderal mass index (TMI). It was measured the skin folds, the mid-arm circumference, the waist circumference and waist-to-height ratio. The body fat percentage was set by bipolar electrical bioimpedance. The high blood pressure was categorized in 3 stages: pre-hypertension, stage 1 hypertension and stage 2 hypertension. Results: The study evaluated 817 adolescents from 10 to 14 years old, the median of age was 12.9 years old, in which 340 are male and 477 are female. The prevalence of adolescents with altered pressure was 20.6% including pre-hypertension and hypertension. The nutritional diagnosis identified overweight in 27.7% of adolescents, in which 9.0% were obese. Regarding the pubertal stage, it was observed that more than 50% of girls reached the stage T2 - T3 of sexual maturation between 10 and 12 years old according to Tanner's criteria, and the boys between 11 and 13 years old. The body mass index (BMI) of females presented values above what was found in males, except for the age of 10 years old. At 11 and 12 years old, the medium weight and height of females were higher when compared to males. The average and standard deviation of the values found for skin folds and body circumferences were higher for females when compared to males. There was no correlation between the values of height for age and systolic and diastolic blood pressure. Alteration in body fat was diagnosed in 149 adolescents (18.2%) and there was correlation with the prevalence of arterial hypertension. Conclusion: the final height of adolescents did not present correlation with the levels of systolic and diastolic blood pressure. Regarding the body composition, the variable TMI was the one that best discriminated the risk of pre-hypertension and high blood pressure.
