RESUMO
INTRODUCTION: The aim of the study was to report the 30-day mortality (30DM) after renal trauma and identify the risk factors associated with death. METHODS: The TRAUMAFUF project was a retrospective multi-institutional study including all patients with renal trauma admitted to 17 French hospitals between 2005 and 2015. The included population focused on patients of all age groups who underwent renal trauma during the study period. The primary outcome was death within 30 days following trauma. The multivariate logistic regression model with a stepwise backward elimination was used to identify predictive factors of 30DM. RESULTS: Data on 1,799 renal trauma were recorded over the 10-year period. There were 59 deaths within 30 days of renal trauma, conferring a 30DM rate of 3.27%. Renal trauma was directly involved in 5 deaths (8.5% of all deaths, 0.3% of all renal trauma). Multivariate stepwise logistic regression analysis revealed that age >40 years (odds ratio [OR] 2.18; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.20-3.99; p = 0.01), hemodynamic instability (OR 4.67; 95% CI: 2.49-9; p < 0.001), anemia (OR 3.89; 95% CI: 1.94-8.37; p < 0.001), bilateral renal trauma (OR 6.77; 95% CI: 2.83-15.61; p < 0.001), arterial contrast extravasation (OR 2.09; 95% CI: 1.09-3.96; p = 0.02), and concomitant visceral and bone injuries (OR 6.57; 95% CI: 2.41-23.14; p < 0.001) were independent predictors of 30DM. CONCLUSION: Our large multi-institutional study supports that the 30DM of 3.27% after renal trauma is due to the high degree of associated injuries and was rarely a consequence of renal trauma alone. Age >40 years, hemodynamic instability, anemia, bilateral renal trauma, arterial contrast extravasation, and concomitant visceral and bone lesions were predictors of death. These results can help clinicians to identify high-risk patients.

OBJECTIVES: To report the functional outcomes of robot-assisted laparoscopic artificial urinary sphincter implantation (R-AUS) in men with neurogenic stress urinary incontinence (SUI). PATIENTS AND METHODS: A monocentric retrospective study included all consecutive adult male neuro-urological patients who underwent R-AUS for SUI between January 2011 and August 2018. The AUS was implanted via a transperitoneal robot-assisted laparoscopic approach. Intraoperative and early postoperative complications were reported (Clavien-Dindo classification). Continence was defined as no pad usage. Revision and explantation rates were also evaluated. RESULTS: Overall, 19 men with a median (interquartile range [IQR]) age of 45 (37-54) years were included. No conversion to laparotomy was needed. Three minor (Clavien-Dindo Grade I-II) early postoperative complications occurring in three (15.8%) patients were reported. The median (IQR) follow-up was 58 (36-70) months. At the end of the follow-up, the continence rate was 89.5%. The AUS revision and explantation rates were 5.3% and 0%, respectively. CONCLUSION: A R-AUS is a safe and efficient procedure for AUS implantation in adult male neuro-urological patients, referring to the challenging open technique.

INTRODUCTION: The aim of this study was to compare observation and early drainage by ureteral stenting in patients with blunt renal trauma and urinary extravasation. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A retrospective national multicenter study was performed including all patients admitted for renal trauma at 17 hospitals between 2005 and 2015. Patients presenting with a urinary extravasation on initial imaging were considered for inclusion. Patients were divided in two groups according to the initial approach: observation vs. early drainage by ureteral stent (within 48 h after admission). The primary endpoint was the persistence of urinary extravasation on follow-up imaging. RESULTS: Out of 1799 patients with renal trauma, 238 were included in the analysis (57 in the early drainage and 181 in the observation group). In the early drainage group, 29 patients had persistent urinary extravasation vs. 77 in the observation group (50.9% vs. 42.5%; p value = 0.27). The rates of secondary upper urinary tract drainage did not differ significantly between the early drainage group (26.4%) and the observation group (16%) (p = 0.14). There were no statistically significant differences between the two groups in terms of secondary nephrectomy (0% vs. 2.8%; p = 0.34), and death from trauma (0% vs. 1.8%; p = 0.99). In multivariate analysis, early drainage remained not statistically associated with persistence of urinary extravasation on follow-up imaging (OR = 1.35; p = 0.36) CONCLUSION: In this multicenter cohort, observation was not different from early drainage in terms of persistent urinary extravasation after grade IV blunt renal trauma. Further randomized controlled prospective trials are needed to confirm these findings.

INTRODUCTION: The aim of this study was to assess whether early discharge could be non-inferior to inpatient management in selected patients with low-grade renal trauma (AAST grades 1-3). MATERIALS AND METHODS: A retrospective national multicenter study was conducted including all patients who presented with renal trauma at 17 hospitals between 2005 and 2015. Exclusion criteria were iatrogenic and AAST grades 4 and 5 trauma, non-conservative initial management, Hb < 10 g/dl or transfusion within the first 24 h, and patients with concomitant injuries. Patients were divided into two groups according to the length of hospital stay: ≤ 48 h (early discharge), and > 48 h (inpatient). The primary outcome was "Intervention" defined as any interventional procedure needed within the first 30 days. A Stabilized Inverse Probability of Treatment Weighting (SIPTW) propensity score based binary response model was used to estimate risk difference. RESULTS: Out of 1764 patients with renal trauma, 311 were included in the analysis (44 in the early discharge and 267 in the inpatient group). In the early discharge group, only one patient required an intervention within the first 30 days vs. 10 in the inpatient group (3.7% vs. 5.2%; p = 0.99). Adjusted analysis using SIPTW propensity score showed a risk difference of - 2.8% [- 9.3% to + 3.7%] of "interventions" between the two groups meeting the non-inferiority criteria. CONCLUSION: In a highly selected cohort, early discharge management of low-grade renal trauma was not associated with an increased risk of early "intervention" compared to inpatient management. Further prospective randomized controlled trials are needed to confirm these findings.

OBJECTIVE: To explore the motivations and expectations of the users of the Program for Healthy Centers in the Autonomous City of Buenos Aires and to evaluate its potential health impact. METHODS: In-depth interviews were conducted (n = 34) and a self-administered survey was sent to users of the program (n = 605). An epidemiological model was developed to estimate the impact of the program on cardiovascular events (CVE) and disability-adjusted life years (DALYs). RESULTS: The main motivating factors for using the healthy centers were geographic and economic accessibility (free services) and satisfaction with the care received. 14.4% (95% CI, 10.3-18.5%) of hypertensive users and 24.8% (95% CI, 17.6-32.0%) of diabetic users reported having learned of their altered values in the healthy center. More than half of the respondents reported some improvement in their knowledge about the benefits of physical activity and healthy eating; this was more frequent among those who were younger, of lower educational level, users of the public health system, users of a healthy center in the South zone and those who had a cardiometabolic risk factor (p<0.05). It was estimated that the healthy centers would prevent 12.5 cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events per year in the assisted population (4.75 events/100 000) and 47.75 DALYs due to these causes. CONCLUSIONS: The healthy centers are a favorable space for the implementation of health promotion and prevention actions, contributing to the detection of and facilitating the monitoring of risk factors, with a potential to prevent cardiovascular events and its consequences.
OBJETIVO: Explorar as motivações e expectativas dos usuários do Programa Estações Saudáveis na Cidade Autônoma de Buenos Aires e avaliar seu impacto potencial na saúde. MÉTODOS: Foram realizadas entrevistas em profundidade (n = 34) e uma pesquisa auto-administrada (n = 605) a usuários do programa. Um modelo epidemiológico foi desenvolvido para estimar o impacto do programa em eventos cardiovasculares e anos de vida ajustados por incapacidade (DALY). RESULTADOS: Os principais fatores motivadores para o uso do estações saudáveis foram a acessibilidade geográfica, econômica (serviços gratuitos) e a satisfação com o atendimento recebido. 14,4% (intervalo de confiança de 95% [IC95%] 10,3-18,5%) de usuários hipertensos e 24,8% (IC95% 17,6-32,0%) dos diabéticos relataram ter aprendido sobre seus valores alterados na estação saudável. Mais da metade dos entrevistados relataram alguma melhora no conhecimento sobre os benefícios da atividade física e da alimentação saudável, com maior freqüência entre os mais jovens, de menor escolaridade, usuários do sistema público de saúde, usuários de estações saudáveis na zona sul e aqueles que apresentaram algum fator de risco cardiometabólico (p<0,05). Estimou-se que, devido à existência de estações saudáveis, 12,5 eventos cardiovasculares e cerebrovasculares por ano seriam evitados na população atendida (4,75 eventos/100 000) e 47,75 DALY por essas causas. CONCLUSÕES: As estações saudáveis são um espaço propício para a implementação de ações de promoção e prevenção da saúde, contribuindo para a detecção e facilitação do monitoramento dos fatores de risco, com potencial para prevenir os eventos cardiovasculares e suas consequências.
RESUMO
BACKGROUND: Angiography with selective angioembolization (SAE) is safe and effective in addressing bleeding in patients with renal trauma. However, there are no validated criteria to predict SAE efficacy. OBJECTIVE: To evaluate factors predictive of SAE failure after moderate- to high-grade renal trauma. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS: TRAUMAFUF was a retrospective multi-institutional study including all patients who underwent upfront SAE for renal trauma in 17 French hospitals between 2005 and 2015. OUTCOME MEASUREMENTS AND STATISTICAL ANALYSIS: The primary outcome was SAE efficacy, defined as the absence of repeat SAE, salvage nephrectomy, and/or death for each patient. RESULTS AND LIMITATIONS: Out of 1770 consecutive patients with renal trauma, 170 (9.6%) with moderate- to high-grade renal trauma underwent SAE. Overall upfront SAE was successful in 131 patients (77%) and failed in 39 patients: six patients died after the embolization, ten underwent repeat SAE, 22 underwent open nephrectomy, and one underwent open surgical exploration. In multivariate logistic regression analysis, gross hematuria (odds ratio [OR] 3.16, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.29-8.49; p=0.015), hemodynamic instability (OR 3.29, 95% CI 1.37-8.22; p=0.009), grade V trauma (OR 2.86, 95% CI 1.06-7.72; p=0.036), and urinary extravasation (OR 3.49, 95% CI 1.42-8.83; p=0.007) were predictors of SAE failure. The success rate was 64.7% (22/34) for patients with grade V trauma and 59.6% (31/52) for those with hemodynamic instability. The study was limited by its retrospective design and the lack of a control group managed with either surgery or surveillance. CONCLUSIONS: We found that gross hematuria, hemodynamic instability, grade V trauma, and urinary extravasation were significant predictors of SAE failure. However, success rates in these subgroups remained relatively high, suggesting that SAE might be appropriate for those patients as well. PATIENT SUMMARY: Selective angioembolization (SAE) is a useful alternative to nephrectomy to address bleeding in patients with renal trauma. Currently, there are no validated criteria to predict SAE efficacy. We found that gross hematuria, hemodynamic instability, grade V trauma, and urinary extravasation were significant predictors of SAE failure.

BACKGROUND: Some health care systems have set up referral trauma centers to centralize expertise to improve trauma management. There is scant and controversial evidence regarding the impact of provider's volume on the outcomes of trauma management. OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the impact of hospital volume on the outcomes of renal trauma management in a European health care system. DESIGN SETTING AND PARTICIPANTS: A retrospective multicenter study, including all patients admitted for renal trauma in 17 French hospitals between 2005 and 2015, was conducted. INTERVENTION: Nephrectomy, angioembolization, or nonoperative management. OUTCOME MEASUREMENTS AND STATISTICAL ANALYSIS: Four quartiles according to the caseload per year: low volume (eight or fewer per year), moderate volume (nine to 13 per year), high volume (14-25/yr), and very high volume (≥26/yr). The primary endpoint was failure of nonoperative management defined as any interventional radiology or surgical procedure needed within the first 30 d after admission. RESULTS AND LIMITATIONS: Of 1771 patients with renal trauma, 1704 were included. Nonoperative management was more prevalent in the very-high- and low-volume centers (p = 0.02). In a univariate analysis, very high hospital volume was associated with a lower risk of nonoperative management failure than low (odds ratio [OR] = 0.54; p = 0.05) and moderate (OR = 0.48; p = 0.02) hospital volume. There were fewer nephrectomies in the high- and very-high-volume groups (p = 0.003). In a multivariate analysis, very high volume remained associated with a lower risk of nonoperative management failure than low (OR = 0.48; p = 0.04) and moderate (OR = 0.42; p = 0.01) volume. Study limitations include all the shortcomings inherent to its retrospective multicenter design. CONCLUSIONS: In this multicenter study, management of renal trauma varied according to hospital volume. There were lower rates of nephrectomy and failure of nonoperative management in very-high-volume centers. These results raise the question of centralizing the management of renal trauma, which is currently not the case in our health care system. PATIENT SUMMARY: In this study, management of renal trauma varied according to hospital volume. Very-high-volume centers had lower rates of nephrectomy and failure of nonoperative management.
RESUMO
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the impact of anticoagulant (AC) or antiplatelet (AP) therapy on the morbidity of robot-assisted partial nephrectomy (RAPN). MATERIALS AND METHODS: From 2011 to 2015, we retrospectively analyzed a prospectively maintained institutional review board-approved database of RAPN from 2 academic departments of urology. We evaluated the occurrence of overall complications and hemorrhagic complications (pseudoaneurysm, arteriovenous fistula, hematoma, transfusion). Patients with therapeutic AC or AP, stopped or not before surgery, were compared with patients without therapeutic AC or AP. A logistic regression model was used to identify predictors of complications. RESULTS: Out of 533 patients who underwent RAPN, 70 had AC or AP (50% aspirin, 25% clopidogrel, 28% AC, 8% direct oral AC). Clopidogrel, AC, and direct oral AC were always stopped preoperatively. Aspirin was continued in 25% of the cases. In univariate analysis, overall complications (39.2% vs 17.4%; P = .001) and hemorrhagic complications (32.7% vs 9.6%; P <.001) were higher in patients on AC or AP. Hospital stay was longer in the group with therapeutic AC or AP treatment (5.1 vs 3.9 days; P <.001). In multivariate analysis, predictors of complications were intake of therapeutic AC (odds ratio [OR] = 4.3, IC95% [1.2-15.9], P = .03) and tumor size (OR = 1.8, IC95% [1.3-7.2], P = .03). Patients on aspirin tended to have more complications (OR = 2.4; IC95% [0.4-9.3]; P = .15). CONCLUSION: AP and therapeutic AC increase the morbidity of RAPN. These treatments should be taken into account in treatment decision-making algorithm of small renal masses.

RESUMEN Las frutas y hortalizas son parte fundamental de una alimentación saludable, sin embargo, en Argentina, su consumo ha disminuido notablemente en las últimas décadas. Con motivo de generar estrategias que permitan orientar el proceso de la consejería nutricional se decidió evaluar la validez y la fiabilidad de una herramienta auto-administrada para determinar etapa de cambio de comportamiento en relación al consumo diario de 5 porciones de frutas y hortalizas, basándose en el Modelo Transteórico. El instrumento presenta una moderada estabilidad temporal (coeficiente kappa= 0,48). A su vez, el análisis de comparaciones múltiples determinó diferencias significativas entre las etapas de pre-contemplación y preparación con respecto a las de acción y mantenimiento y de la etapa de contemplación con respecto a la de mantenimiento. Esta herramienta permitirá discriminar a las personas según la etapa en la que se encuentren y así orientar los mensajes y las estrategias de promoción del consumo de frutas y vegetales.
ABSTRACT Fruits and vegetables are a fundamental part of a healthy diet, however, in Argentina, their consumption has decreased significantly in recent decades. In order to generate strategies to guide the process of nutritional counseling, it was decided to evaluate the validity and reliability of a self-administered tool to determine the stage of behavior change, based on the Transheoretical Model, in relation to the daily consumption of 5 portions of fruits and vegetables. The tool showed a moderate temporal stability (kappa coefficient= 0.48) and the analysis of multiple comparisons determined significant differences between the stages of pre-contemplation and preparation with respect to those of action and maintenance. Also between the contemplation stage with respect to maintenance stage. This tool will allow for the classification of people according to the stage in which they find themselves and thus guide messages and strategies to promote the consumption of fruits and vegetables.

Introducción: actualmente el sobrepeso y la obesidad representan una epidemia a nivel mundial y constituyen factores de riesgo para enfermedades cardiovasculares, diabetes y algunos tipos de cáncer. En la Ciudad Autónoma de Buenos Aires (CABA) desde el año 2012 se ofrece el servicio de Consejería Nutricional (CN) en espacios públicos con acceso libre y gratuito. Este estudio explora, desde la perspectiva de los usuarios frecuentes con exceso de peso, cuáles son los factores cotidianos que intervienen en la implementación de las pautas alimentarias sugeridas en la CN. Materiales y método: estudio cualitativo exploratorio y diseño transversal. Entre el mes de junio y diciembre de 2017 se realizaron entrevistas en profundidad a usuarios frecuentes de la CN del Programa Estaciones Saludables. Resultados: casi la totalidad de los entrevistados declararon incorporar o estar en proceso de incorporación de al menos una pauta alimentaria desde que asisten a la CN. Entre los aspectos facilitadores para la incorporación de estas recomendaciones destacaron: la periodicidad de la visita a la CN, la facilidad de acceso a la CN, el vínculo con el nutricionista, el acompañamiento de familiares y amigos, la realización de actividad física, las herramientas brindadas en CN y el uso de internet. Entre los aspectos obstaculizadores destacaron las preferencias gustativas que muchas veces no coinciden con las recomendaciones, la ingesta de alimentos poco saludables en espacios de comensalidad colectiva, el ambiente alimentario, la falta de tiempo, características de la jornada laboral y cambios en los estados emocionales. Conclusiones: el servicio de CN fue percibido por los consultados como un factor facilitador que contribuyó a incorporar hábitos alimentarios más saludables a partir de la implementación de las pautas recibidas.
Introduction: currently overweight and obesity represent an epidemic worldwide and are risk factors for cardiovascular diseases, diabetes and some types of cancer. Since 2012, in the Autonomous City of Buenos Aires (CABA), the Nutritional Counseling Service (NC) has been offered in public spaces with free and open access. This study explores, from the perspective of frequent users with excess of weight, which are the daily factors that intervene in the implementation of dietary guidelines suggested in the NC. Materials and method: exploratory qualitative study and transversal design. Between June and December 2017, in-depth interviews were conducted with frequent users of the Healthy Stations Program. Results: almost all of the interviewees stated they had incorporated or were in the process of incorporating at least one food guideline since attending the NC. Among the facilitating aspects for the incorporation of these recommendations they pointed out: the periodicity of the visit to the NC, easy access to the NC, the relationship with the nutritionist, the accompaniment of family and friends, physical activity, the tools provided in CN and the use of internet. Among the obstacles they highlighted taste preferences that do not often match the recommendations, the intake of unhealthy foods in spaces of collective commensality, the food environment, lack of time, characteristics of the workday and changes in emotional states. Conclusions: the CN service was perceived by the respondents as a facilitating factor that contributed to incorporating healthier eating habits following the implementation of received guidelines.

Introducción: la dieta libre de gluten (DLG) es el único tratamiento disponible para la enfermedad celíaca (EC). El objetivo de este trabajo es describir la perspectiva de los usuarios de los servicios de la Dirección General de Desarrollo Saludable (DGDS) con EC con respecto a la realización de la dieta. Materiales y método: estudio descriptivo de corte transversal. Entre septiembre de 2015 y diciembre de 2016, se realizaron encuestas autoadministradas a personas con diagnóstico de EC, usuarias de servicios de la DGDS. Resultados: se encuestaron 271 personas (89,3% mujeres; 10,9% hombres). La mayoría con nivel educativo alto (43,2%) o medio (54,6%), residentes en la CABA (71,6%). El 78,6% había realizado algún control por la EC en los últimos 12 meses y el 77,8% había asistido alguna vez al nutricionista para consultar sobre la DLG. El 28,4% participaba en alguna asociación de celíacos, las que a su vez fueron las fuentes de información más confiables (61,9%), seguidas por médicos (58,7%) y nutricionistas (51,2%). El símbolo oficial fue la estrategia más utilizada para identificar alimentos libres de gluten. Comer fuera del hogar y viajar fueron las situaciones de mayor dificultad para la realización de la DLG y el costo de los alimentos es percibido como un factor que la obstaculiza. Con respecto a la percepción sobre el nivel de adherencia a la DLG, el 71,8% de los encuestados consideró que adhería totalmente. Para describir el sentimiento originado por tener que realizar la DLG, las palabras más mencionadas fueron aceptación, placer, bienestar, enojo, impotencia, trastorno y agotamiento (45,3% fueron términos asociados a sentimientos positivos y 54,7% a sentimientos negativos). Conclusión: la DLG impone dificultades a las personas con EC. Conocer las percepciones y las estrategias que emplean para poder adherir a la dieta es de gran utilidad en el diseño de intervenciones.
Introduction: the gluten-free diet (GFD) is the only available treatment for celiac disease (CD). The objective of this work is to describe the perspectives of the users of CD services given by the Directorate-General for Health Development (DGHD) with respect to the fulfillment of GFD. Materials and Method: cross-sectional study. Between September 2015 and December 2016 self-reported surveys were carried out on people diagnosed with CD, also users of the services given by DGHD. Results: 271 people (89.3% female; 10.9% male) participated in the survey. The majority presented high (43.2%) or middle (54.6%) level of education and resided in Buenos Aires City (71.6%). 78.6% had carried out at least one CD control in the previous 12 months and 77.8% had previously consulted with a nutritionist regarding GFD. 28.4% participated in some CD association, which was the most reliable source of information (61.9%), followed by doctors (58.7%) and nutritionists (51.2%). The official symbol was the most common strategy used to identify gluten-free products. Eating out and traveling were the situations which entailed the greatest difficulties for GFD fulfillment, and the cost of gluten-free products was perceived as an obstacle. With respect to the perception upon the level of adherence to the GFD, 71.8% of participants considered they totally adhered. When describing the feelings originated as a consequence of GFD, the most mentioned were acceptance, pleasure, wellbeing, anger, helplessness, disorder and exhaustion (45.3% were terms associated with positive feelings and 54.7%, with negative feelings). Conclusions: GFD entails difficulties in people with CD. Obtaining insight on the perceptions and strategies followed in order to fulfill the diet is of great use in the design of interventions.
