El síndrome de absorción intravascular en histeroscopia se origina por la rápida absorción vascular de soluciones isotónicas e hipotónicas utilizadas en irrigación intrauterina, ocasionando hipervolemia y dilución de electrolitos, especialmente hiponatremia. Cuando este síndrome es debido a intoxicación por glicina al 1,5% causa acidosis severa y neurotoxicidad. La incidencia de este síndrome es baja pero puede aumentar por factores como: falta de control de altura de bolsas de irrigación, ausencia de equilibrio de fluidos de soluciones de irrigación, tejidos altamente vascularizados como miomas uterinos y uso de sistema de electrocirugía monopolar. Se reporta el caso de una paciente con miomas uterinos, programada para resección mediante histeroscopia que cursa con síndrome de absorción intravascular por glicina, el temprano diagnóstico y rápido tratamiento intraoperatorio y postoperatorio permitió una evolución favorable. El manejo se basó en el uso de diuréticos, restricción de fluidos y soluciones hipertónicas de sodio.
Intravascular absorption syndrome in hysteroscopy is caused by rapid vascular absorption of isotonic and hypotonic solutions used in intrauterine irrigation, causing hypervolemia and electrolyte dilution, especially hyponatremia. When this syndrome is due to 1.5% glycine toxicity, it causes severe acidosis and neurotoxicity. The incidence of this syndrome is low but may increase due to factors such as: lack of control of the height of irrigation bags, lack of fluid balance in irrigation solutions, highly vascularized tissues such as uterine myomas and use of a monopolar electrosurgery system. The case of a patient with uterine myomas, scheduled for resection by hysteroscopy, who presents with intravascular glycine absorption syndrome, is reported. Early diagnosis and rapid intraoperative and postoperative treatment allowed a favorable evolution. Management was based on the use of diuretics, fluid restriction, and hypertonic sodium solutions.

A successful endodontic treatment requires a combination of satisfactory mechanical instrumentation, adequate irrigation protocols, and three-dimensional obturation of the canal system. Irrigation is considered the most critical procedure to ensure cleaning and disinfection. To date, a large variety of irrigants has been proposed. However, sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) remains the gold standard. In order to achieve complete cleaning and disinfection, final irrigation with EDTA and ultrasonic devices has been used as an ideal protocol. Most endodontic research focuses on the cleaning and antibacterial properties of the irrigant solutions. Recent evidence demonstrated that the irrigation protocols cause erosion, affecting the radicular dentin ultrastructure. This article aims to describe the clinical features of the present knowledge concerning the effect of irrigation protocols on radicular dentin.
Un tratamiento de endodoncia exitoso requiere de una satisfactoria instrumentación mecánica, protocolos de irrigación adecuados y obturación tridimensional del sistema de conductos radiculares. La irrigación se considera el procedimiento más crítico para garantizar la limpieza y desinfección. Hasta la fecha, se ha propuesto una gran variedad de irrigantes. Sin embargo, el hipoclorito de sodio (NaOCl) sigue siendo el estándar de oro. Para lograr una limpieza y desinfección completa, se ha utilizado como protocolo ideal la irrigación final con EDTA y dispositivos ultrasónicos. La mayor parte de la investigación en endodoncia se enfoca en las propiedades antibacterianas y de limpieza de las soluciones de irrigación. Reciente evidencia demostró que los protocolos de irrigación provocan erosión, afectando la ultraestructura de la dentina radicular. Este artículo tiene como objetivo describir algunas consideraciones clínicas del conocimiento actual sobre el efecto de los protocolos de irrigación en la dentina radicular.

OBJECTIVES@#This study aimed to compare the effectiveness of ultrasound and acoustic and laser cleaning of curved root canals.@*METHODS@#A total of 92 molars with independent root canals with a curvature of 20°-40° were prepared and standardized at 04 25# and stained with gentian violet solution for 72 h. Among them, 52 were randomly divi-ded into four groups for final rinsing (n=13): NI group, PUI group, EDDY group, and PIPS group. Ten samples in each group were cut horizontally along the long axis perpendicular to the root and divided into curved upper, curved, and apical segments. Images were taken with a stereomicroscope and Image J measurements were taken to calculate the depth of rinse penetration. The remaining three samples from each group were split along the long axis of the dentin, photographed by scanning electron microscope to record the dentin tubule exposure and staining layer, and scored for staining layer by double-blind method. SPSS 26.0 software was used to perform statistical analysis and select the best flushing method. An extra 40 samples were randomly divided into four groups for detection of flushing fluid penetration depth (n=10): 10, 20, 30, and 40 s.@*RESULTS@#In the upper part, the mean depth of infiltration was not significantly different between the experimental and control groups (P>0.05). The PIPS group had a significantly lower smear layer score than the control group and the EDDY group (P<0.01). In the curved segment, the mean depth of infiltration was significantly greater in the PUI group than in the control group (P<0.05); the tarnish layer score was lower in each experimental group than in the control group. At the top, the mean depth of infiltration was greater in the PUI and PIPS groups than in the control group (P<0.05), and the smear layer score was lower in the PIPS group than in the other groups (P<0.05). After the time was changed, the depth of infiltration of PUI increased only in the apical segment as the flushing time increased.@*CONCLUSIONS@#The PUI and PIPS methods facilitate the penetration of irrigation solution into the dentin canal in curved root canals, especially in the apical segment. The PIPS technique is effective in removing the smear layer in curved root canals.

Introducción: A pesar de su baja incidencia, las infecciones osteoarticulares pueden generar complicaciones y secuelas devastadoras para el niño en desarrollo con su esqueleto en crecimiento. El manejo general de la patología debe ser multidisciplinario, asociando la terapia antibiótica y un tratamiento quirúrgico adecuado si se requiere. El objetivo de nuestro trabajo es analizar los resultados sobre las diferentes opciones terapéuticas quirúrgicas (punción-aspiración, lavado artroscópico o lavado abierto) en el tratamiento de la artritis séptica en la edad, mediante la realización de revisión sistematizada de la bibliografía. Metodología: Realizamos una búsqueda bibliográfica online en los buscador PubMed y en la Biblioteca Virtual en Salud (BVS) utilizando los siguientes términos MESH: ("Arthritis, Infectious/surgery"(Mesh) OR "Arthritis, Infectious/therapy"(Mesh)), utilizando filtros de búsqueda y aplicando criterios de inclusión y exclusión según nuestro objetivo. De los artículos incluidos se obtuvieron entre otros los siguiente datos: país, año, nivel de evidencia, número de pacientes con artritis séptica, articulación afectada, edad media, seguimiento promedio, tipo de tratamiento quirúrgico realizado de inicio y sus resultados según cada autor : complicaciones (de la enfermedad y del procedimiento ) y/o secuelas (en base a evolución clínica y radiológica), necesidad de un tratamiento quirúrgico adicional ante la falla del método terapéutico inicial y además de conclusiones relevantes de cada autor. Resultados: Se incluyeron un total de 22 artículos: 8 para el lavado por artroscopia, 6 para el lavado por artrocentesis, 4 para el lavado por artrotomía, ademas de otros 4 artículos que realizaba un análisis comparativo: dos de ellos entre lavado artroscópico y lavado por artrotomía y los otros dos entre lavado por artrocentesis y lavado abierto. El lavado artroscópico se encuentra en lo más alto de nuestra revisión ya que presenta los mejores resultados con solo un 6% complicaciones y/o secuelas (en solo 4 de los 8 artículos incluidos), con un total de 13 pacientes (8,7% ) que requirieron un tratamiento adicional (5 artrotomías y 8 un nueva lavado artroscópico ) y se destacan ademas 3 artículos con un 100% de buenos resultados, en los que no se presentaron complicaciones y/o secuelas, ni se requirió un segundo lavado, mientras que solo en 3 trabajos, de los 8, se necesitó de la artrotomía adicional para la resolución final. Para el lavado por artrocentesis se obtuvo el menor porcentaje de complicaciones y/o secuelas con un 2%, (reportado en tres de los 6 trabajos), y solo el 9,7% necesitaron de un segundo método terapéutico diferente a la aspiración articular (23 artrotomías y 2 artroscopias), destacando ademas la repetición de la punción (hasta 4 veces) como dentro de la directiva terapéutica del autor en dos artículos, y que para éste método se encontró el mayor número de pacientes. El lavado por artrotomía como método inicial obtuvo los peores resultados, con un 12% de complicaciones y/o secuelas y un 22,6% de lavados adicionales. Conclusiones: A pesar de que el lavado abierto por artrotomía se toma como el ¨ gold-standard ¨, teniendo indicaciones absolutas en el tratamiento quirúrgico de la artritis séptica en niños (especialmente en cadera), de nuestro análisis se desprende que ésta opción arroja los peores porcentajes de resultados, duplicando el porcentaje de necesidad de lavado adicional y el de complicaciones, en comparación con el lavado artroscópico. Existen otros métodos terapéuticos que se presentan como procedimientos menos invasivos, seguros y eficaces, respaldados por buenos resultados en la biografiaría, como son: el lavado por artroscopia (que presentó el porcentaje más bajo de pacientes con necesidad de lavado adicional, con el mayor número de artículos con buenos resultados en general, con un porcentaje de complicaciones por debajo del lavado por artrotomía) y el lavado por artrocentesis (que presentó el porcentaje de compilaciones más bajo de las 3 opciones analizadas.
Introduction: Despite its low incidence, osteoarticular infections can generate devastating complications and sequelae for the developing child with his growing skeleton. The general management of the pathology must be multidisciplinary, associating antibiotic therapy and adequate surgical treatment if required. The objective of our work is to analyze the results on the different surgical therapeutic options (puncture-aspiration, arthroscopic lavage or open lavage) in the treatment of septic arthritis in the pediatric age, by carrying out a systematic review of the bibliography. Methodology: We conducted an online bibliographic search in the PubMed search engine and in the Virtual Health Library (VHL) using the following MESH terms: ("Arthritis, Infectious/surgery"(Mesh) OR "Arthritis, Infectious/therapy"(Mesh)), using search filters and applying inclusion and exclusion criteria according to our objective. The following data were obtained from the included articles, among others: country, year, level of evidence, number of patients with septic arthritis, affected joint, mean age, average follow-up, type of initial surgical treatment and its results according to each author: complications (of the disease and of the procedure) and/or sequelae (based on clinical and radiological evolution), the need for additional surgical treatment in the event of failure of the initial therapeutic method, and in addition to relevant conclusions of each author. Results: A total of 22 articles were included: 8 for arthroscopic lavage, 6 for arthrocentesis lavage, 4 for arthrotomy lavage, in addition to another 4 articles that performed a comparative analysis: two of them between arthroscopic lavage and lavage. by arthrotomy and the other two between lavage by arthrocentesis and open lavage. Arthroscopic lavage is at the top of our review as it presents the best results with only 6% complications and/or sequelae (in only 4 of the 8 articles included), with a total of 13 patients (8.7% ) that required additional treatment (5 arthrotomies and 8 a new arthroscopic lavage) and also highlight 3 articles with 100% good results, in which there were no complications and/or sequelae, nor did a second lavage be required, while that only 3 of the 8 studies required an additional arthrotomy for the final resolution. For lavage by arthrocentesis, the lowest percentage of complications and/or sequelae was obtained with 2% (reported in three of the 6 works), and only 9.7% required a second therapeutic method other than joint aspiration (23 arthrotomies and 2 arthroscopies), also highlighting the repetition of the puncture (up to 4 times) as within the author's therapeutic directive in two articles, and that the largest number of patients was found for this method. Arthrotomy lavage as the initial method obtained the worst results, with 12% complications and/or sequelae and 22.6% additional lavages. Conclusions: Even though open lavage by arthrotomy is taken as the ¨ gold-standard ¨, having absolute indications in the surgical treatment of septic arthritis in children (especially in the hip), from our analysis it can be deduced that this option yields the worse percentages of results, doubling the percentage of need for additional lavage and the percentage of complications, compared to arthroscopic lavage. There are other therapeutic methods that are presented as less invasive, safe and effective procedures, supported by good results in the biography, such as: arthroscopic lavage (which presented the lowest percentage of patients requiring additional lavage, with the highest number of articles with good results in general, with a percentage of complications below lavage by arthrotomy) and lavage by arthrocentesis (which presented the lowest percentage of compilations of the 3 options analyzed).
Introdução: Apesar de sua baixa incidência, as infecções osteoarticulares podem gerar complicações e sequelas devastadoras para a criança em desenvolvimento com seu esqueleto em crescimento. O manejo geral da patologia deve ser multidisciplinar, associando antibioticoterapia e tratamento cirúrgico adequado, se necessário. O objetivo do nosso trabalho é analisar os resultados das diferentes opções terapêuticas cirúrgicas (punção-aspiração, lavagem artroscópica ou lavagem aberta) no tratamento da artrite séptica em idade pediátrica, através da realização de uma revisão sistemática da bibliografia. Metodologia: Foi realizada uma busca bibliográfica online no buscador PubMed e na Biblioteca Virtual em Saúde (BVS) utilizando os seguintes termos MESH: ( "Arthritis, Infectious/surgery"(Mesh) OR "Arthritis, Infectious/therapy"(Mesh) ), utilizando filtros de busca e aplicando critérios de inclusão e exclusão de acordo com nosso objetivo. Os seguintes dados foram obtidos dos artigos incluídos, entre outros: país, ano, nível de evidência, número de pacientes com artrite séptica, articulação afetada, idade média, seguimento médio, tipo de tratamento cirúrgico inicial e seus resultados de acordo com cada autor: complicações (da doença e do procedimento) e/ou sequelas (com base na evolução clínica e radiológica), necessidade de tratamento cirúrgico adicional em caso de falha do método terapêutico inicial e, além das conclusões relevantes de cada autor. Resultados: Foram incluídos 22 artigos: 8 para lavagem artroscópica, 6 para lavagem artrocentese, 4 para lavagem artrotômica, além de outros 4 artigos que realizaram uma análise comparativa: dois deles entre lavagem artroscópica e lavagem por artrotomia e a outros dois entre lavagem por artrocentese e lavagem aberta. A lavagem artroscópica está no topo da nossa revisão por apresentar os melhores resultados com apenas 6% de complicações e/ou sequelas (em apenas 4 dos 8 artigos incluídos), com um total de 13 doentes (8,7%) que necessitaram de tratamento adicional (5 artrotomias e 8 uma nova lavagem artroscópica) e também destacam 3 artigos com 100% de bons resultados, nos quais não houve complicações e/ou sequelas, nem foi necessária uma segunda lavagem, enquanto que apenas 3 dos 8 estudos necessitaram de uma artrotomia para a resolução final. Para a lavagem por artrocentese, o menor percentual de complicações e/ou sequelas foi obtido com 2% (relatado em três dos 6 trabalhos), e apenas 9,7% necessitaram de um segundo método terapêutico diferente da aspiração articular (23 artrotomias e 2 artroscopias), destacando também a repetição da punção (até 4 vezes) conforme diretriz terapêutica do autor em dois artigos, e que o maior número de pacientes foi encontrado para este método. A lavagem por artrotomia como método inicial obteve os piores resultados, com 12% de complicações e/ou sequelas e 22,6% de lavagens adicionais. Conclusões: Apesar de a lavagem aberta por artrotomia ser tida como ¨padrão-ouro¨, tendo indicações absolutas no tratamento cirúrgico da artrite séptica em crianças (especialmente no quadril), da nossa análise pode-se deduzir que esta opção rende os piores percentuais de resultados, dobrando o percentual de necessidade de lavagem adicional e o percentual de complicações, em comparação com a lavagem artroscópica. Existem outros métodos terapêuticos que se apresentam como procedimentos menos invasivos, seguros e eficazes, corroborados por bons resultados na biografia, tais como: a lavagem artroscópica (que apresentou a menor percentagem de doentes que necessitaram de lavagem adicional, com o maior número de artigos com boa resultados em geral, com percentual de complicações abaixo da lavagem por artrotomia) e lavagem por artrocentese (que apresentou o menor percentual de compilações das 3 opções analisadas).

Mujer de 59 años, con antecedentes de diverticulosis de colon, que acude por dolor en la región inguinal y en el miembro inferior izquierdo de dos meses de evolución. En una primera instancia, la paciente se presentó con clínica de sepsis y se objetivó un eritema en el miembro inferior izquierdo, asociado a celulitis y crepitación subcutánea. La TC mostraba una colección hidroaérea en psoas y retroperitoneal que asciende hasta la cavidad abdominal hallándose una diverticulitis perforada. El tratamiento quirúrgico se basó en el drenaje de la colección retroperitoneal y sigmoidectomía, seguido de una fasciotomía, desbridamiento y lavado del muslo. La perforación de un divertículo puede formar un absceso intraperitoneal desarrollando una peritonitis o un absceso retroperitoneal, derivando en una translocación bacteriana hacia la extremidad inferior, debido a la comunicación existente en el anillo crural, generando una fascitis necrotizante del miembro.

Introducción: Una de las medidas profilácticas para disminuir la incidencia de infecciones periprotésicas es el lavado con povidona yodada diluida, un agente con acción bactericida contra distintos microorganismos. El propósito de este estudio fue evaluar la incidencia de infecciones periprotésicas dentro de los primeros 90 días, en pacientes a quienes se les realizó un lavado con povidona yodada luego de implantar los componentes protésicos y antes del cierre de la herida. materiales y métodos: Se llevó a cabo un análisis retrospectivo comparativo de pacientes sometidos a artroplastias primarias de cadera y rodilla por artrosis y se comparó la incidencia de infecciones periprotésicas dentro de los primeros 90 días posoperatorios, entre pacientes que fueron operados antes de la introducción del lavado con povidona yodada y luego con su uso rutinario. Resultados: Se realizaron 643 (47,60%) reemplazos de rodilla y 708 (52,40%) reemplazos de cadera. Al comparar la incidencia de infecciones periprotésicas entre ambos grupos, no se observaron diferencias estadísticamente significativas (0,92% vs. 0,21%; p = 0,11). Sin embargo, se incrementó el riesgo de infección en los primeros 90 días posteriores a la cirugía (OR = 4,5; IC95% 0,56-36,19) cuando no se utilizó la solución. Conclusiones: El riesgo de desarrollar infecciones periprotésicas se incrementó 4,5 veces al realizar una artroplastia sin irrigación con povidona yodada diluida. Sin embargo, no se pudo demostrar que esto fuese estadísticamente significativo. Nivel de Evidencia: III
Introduction: One of the prophylactic techniques to reduce the incidence of periprosthetic infections is dilute povidone-iodine lavage, an agent with bactericidal action against different microorganisms. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the incidence of periprosthetic infections within the first 90 days in patients who had undergone povidone-iodine lavage after implantation of prosthetic components and before wound closure. Materials and methods: A comparative retrospective study was performed on patients who had undergone primary total hip or knee replacement due to advanced joint osteoarthritis between October 1999 and April 2020. We assessed the PJI rate between two cohorts: Group A, which consisted of patients who received povidone-iodine lavage routinely, and Group B, where this solution was not applied. Results: 643 (47.60%) knee replacements and 708 (52.40%) hip replacements were performed. When comparing the incidence of periprosthetic infections between both groups, no statistically significant differences were observed (0.92% vs. 0.21%; p = 0.11). However, the risk of infection was increased in the first 90 days after surgery (OR = 4.5; 95% CI 0.56-36.19) when the solution was not used. Conclusions: The risk of developing periprosthetic infections increased 4.5 times when performing an arthroplasty without irrigation with diluted povidone-iodine. However, this could not be shown to be statistically significant. Level of Evidence: III

ABSTRACT Objetive: To evaluate the success rate of initial and repeated probing as treatment approach for congenital nasolacrimal duct obstruction (CNLDO) in children between 2 and 46 months. Methods: A restrospective review of 73 children diagnosed with CNLDO who underwent probing of the NLD from March 2010 to 2020 was conducted. Data were colected from Hospital Oftalmológico de Anápolis in Anápolis, Goiás. Results: The procedure was performed in 90 eyes. The study sample was constituted of 36 males and 37 females. Bilateral involvement occurred in 18 (24.6%) children whereas 55 (75.3%) of them were unilaterally affected. The age ranges of the patients were divided into 4 groups: A - up to 6 months old (5.5% of the eyes), B - 7 to 12 months (27.5%), group C - 13 to 24 months (39.5%) and group D - older than 24 months (26.4%). The mean age of the sample was 18.6 months. Initial probing obtained an overall success rate of 88.8% and group B showed the best percentage (96%) from all age ranges. The second intervention had a lower outcome, successfuly in 55.5% of the cases. Conclusion: All age ranges showed high success rates for initial probing, although there was a decrease in subsequent procedures outcomes. Our results demonstrate that the success rate for primary probing is not affected by age.
RESUMO Objetivo: avaliar a taxa de sucesso de sondagem inicial e de repetição como abordagem de tratamento para obstrução congênita do ducto nasolacrimal em crianças entre 2 e 46 meses. Métodos: conduziu-se uma revisão retrospectiva de 73 crianças diagnosticadas com obstrução congênita do ducto nasolacrimal que se submeteram à sondagem do ducto nasolacrimal de março de 2010 a 2020. Os dados foram coletados no Hospital Oftalmológico de Anápolis em Anápolis, Goiás. Resultados: o procedimento foi realizado em 90 olhos. A amostra do estudo constitui-se em 36 pacientes do sexo masculino e 37 do sexo feminino. O acometimento foi bilateral em 18 crianças, enquanto 55 (75,3%) delas foram afetadas de forma unilateral.

ABSTRACT Purpose: High intra-renal pressures during flexible ureteroscopy have been associated with adverse renal tissue changes as well as pyelovenous backflow. Our objective was to investigate the effect of various intra-renal pressures on histologic changes and fluid extravasation during simulated ureteroscopy. Materials and Methods: Twenty-four juvenile pig kidneys with intact ureters were cannulated with an Olympus flexible ureteroscope with and without a ureteral access sheath and subjected to India ink-infused saline irrigation for 30 minutes at constant pressures ranging from sphygmomanometer settings of 50mm, 100mm and 200mmHg. Renal tissue samples were collected, processed and stained, and were evaluated by a blinded pathologist for depth of ink penetration into renal parenchyma as a percentage of total parenchymal thickness from urothelium to renal capsule. Results: The mean percentage of tissue penetration for kidneys with ink present in the cortical tubules at sphygmomanometer pressure settings of 50, 100, and 200mm Hg without a ureteral access sheath was 33.1, 31.0 and 99.3%, respectively and with ureteral access sheath was 0, 0 and 18.8%, respectively. Overall, kidneys with an access sheath demonstrated a smaller mean tissue penetration among all pressure compared to kidneys without a sheath (6.3% vs. 54.5%, p=0.0354). Of kidneys with sheath placement, 11% demonstrated any ink compared to 56% of kidneys without sheath placement. Conclusions: Pressurized endoscopic irrigation leads to significant extravasation of fluid into the renal parenchyma. Higher intra-renal pressures were associated with increased penetration of irrigant during ureteroscopy in an ex-vivo porcine model.

INTRODUCCIÓN: La alteración de la vitamina D es un factor de riesgo para enfermar de tuberculosis (TBC). OBJETIVO: Evaluar la concentración pulmonar y sérica del compuesto 25-hidroxi-vitamina D (25OHD) en pacientes con y sin TBC pulmonar. METODOLOGÍA: Estudio de dos etapas: la primera parte fue de corte transversal, retrospectiva, y la segunda prospectiva. Se incluyeron > 18 años a los que se les realizó fibrobroncoscopia por sospecha de TBC pulmonar y en quienes se confirmó la infección. Se tomaron como controles a pacientes con otro tipo de infección no TBC, y enfermedades no infecciosas para la primera etapa y controles infecciosos sin TBC en la fase prospectiva. La medición de 25OHD se realizó mediante ELFA (ensayo de fluorescencia ligado a enzima). Se empleó la prueba de Kruskal-Wallis para evaluar asociación considerando significativo un valor de p < 0,05. Los datos se procesaron con el programa SPSS versión 23. RESULTADOS: La muestra total fue de 77 pacientes (35 en la primera etapa y 42 en la segunda). Las características entre los grupos fueron homogéneas. Las concentraciones en suero (segunda fase) como en el lavado bronco-alveolar (primera y segunda fase) de 25OHD fueron más bajas en pacientes con TBC comparado con los controles e independientes de la concentración de calcio sérico (suero: 22,4 ng/mL vs 33 ng/mL, p = 0,006 y lavado bronco-alveolar: 9,7 ng/mL vs 12,2 ng/mL; p = 0,012). CONCLUSIONES: Hubo una diferencia significativa entre las concentraciones de 25OHD, tanto en suero como en lavado bronco-alveolar, en pacientes con TBC pulmonar con relación a sus controles.
BACKGROUND: Alteration of vitamin D is a risk factor for tuberculosis (TB). AIM: To evaluate the pulmonary and serum levels of 25-hydroxy vitamin D (25OHD) in patients with and without pulmonary TB. METHODS: Two-stage study: the first part was retrospective cross-sectional and the second prospective. Those > 18 years of age who underwent fiberoptic bronchoscopy for suspected pulmonary TB and in whom the infection was confirmed were included. Patients with another type of infection without TB and non-infectious diseases were taken as controls for the first stage and infectious controls without TB in the prospective phase. The measurement of 25OHD was performed by ELFA (enzyme-linked fluorescence assay). The Kruskal-Wallis test was used to evaluate association, considering a value of p < 0.05 to be significant. The data were processed with the SPSS version 23 program. RESULTS: The total sample was 77 patients (35 in the first stage and 42 in the second). The characteristics between the groups were homogeneous. Serum (second phase) and broncho-alveolar lavage (first and second phase) levels of 25OHD were lower in TB patients compared to controls and were independent of serum calcium level (serum: 22.4 ng/mL vs 33 ng/mL, p = 0.006 and broncho-alveolar lavage: 9.7 ng/mL vs 12.2 ng/mL; p = 0.012). CONCLUSIONS: There was a significant difference between the levels of 25OHD in both serum and broncho-alveolar lavage in patients with pulmonary TB in relation to their controls.

Abstract Background and objectives Several airway complications can occur during shoulder arthroscopy including airway obstruction, pleural puncture, and subcutaneous emphysema. It was hypothesized that the irrigation fluid used during a shoulder arthroscopic procedure might increase the cuff pressure of the endotracheal tube, which can cause edema and ischemic damage to the endotracheal mucosa. Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate the relationship between irrigation fluid and endotracheal tube cuff pressures. Methods Forty patients aged 20 to 70 years with an American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) score I or II, scheduled for elective arthroscopic shoulder surgery under general anesthesia, participated in our study. We recorded endotracheal tube cuff pressures and neck circumferences every hour from the start of the operation. We also recorded the total duration of the anesthesia, operation, and the total volume of fluid used for irrigation. Results A positive correlation was shown between endotracheal tube cuff pressures and the amount of irrigation fluid (r = 0.385, 95% CI 0.084 to 0.62, p = 0.0141). The endotracheal tube cuff pressure significantly increased at 2 and 3 hours after starting the operation (p = 0.0368 and p = 0.0245, respectively). However, neck circumference showed no significant difference. Conclusions Endotracheal tube cuff pressures increased with operation time and with increased volumes of irrigation fluid used in patients who underwent shoulder arthroscopy. We recommend close monitoring of endotracheal tube cuff pressures during shoulder arthroscopy, especially during long operations using a large amount of irrigation fluid, to prevent complications caused by raised cuff pressures.
Resumo Justificativa e objetivos Diversas complicações das vias aéreas podem ocorrer durante a artroscopia do ombro, incluindo obstrução das vias aéreas, punção pleural e enfisema subcutâneo. Levantou‐se a hipótese de que o fluido de irrigação utilizado durante artroscopia do ombro possa aumentar a pressão do balonete do tubo endotraqueal, podendo causar edema e lesão isquêmica na mucosa traqueal. Portanto, este estudo teve como objetivo avaliar a relação entre o fluido de irrigação e a pressão do balonete do tubo endotraqueal. Métodos Participaram do estudo 40 pacientes com idades entre 20 e 70 anos com classificação do estado físico I ou II da American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA), programados para cirurgia artroscópica do ombro, eletiva e sob anestesia geral. Registramos as pressões do balonete do tubo endotraqueal e as circunferências do pescoço a cada hora, a partir do início da cirurgia. Também registramos a duração anestésica e cirúrgica, assim como o volume total de líquido de irrigação empregado. Resultados Foi encontrada correlação positiva entre a pressão do balonete do tubo endotraqueal e a quantidade de líquido de irrigação (r = 0,385; 95% IC 0,084 a 0,62; p = 0,0141). A pressão do balonete do tubo endotraqueal registrou aumento significante 2 e 3 horas após o início da cirurgia (p = 0,0368 e p = 0,0245, respectivamente). No entanto, a circunferência do pescoço não mostrou diferença significante. Conclusões As pressões do balonete do tubo endotraqueal aumentaram com o tempo de cirurgia e com o aumento do volume de líquido de irrigação utilizado em pacientes submetidos a artroscopia do ombro. Recomendamos a monitorização rigorosa da pressão do balonete do tubo endotraqueal durante artroscopia do ombro, especialmente nos procedimentos longos em que grandes volumes de fluido de irrigação são empregados, para evitar complicações causadas por pressões elevadas do balonete.

ABSTRACT: Introduction: Sodium hypochlorite and ultrasonic activation have a synergistic and improving effect on canal disinfection. Some authors found irrigant decrease after activation with ultrasonic, while others described an increased concentration in later stages. The aim of this study was to determine if activation of sodium hypochlorite by passive ultrasonic irrigation reduces its concentration compared to a technique without activation. Materials and methods: A ex-vivo descriptive study was conducted with teeth, randomized into two groups: 10 controls and 20 experimental. The hypochlorite of groups undergoing endodontic treatment was collected, and the post-irrigation residual with saline was gathered. The activation by ultrasonic was performed in stage 4.5 with Ultrasonic Scaler NSK®, three cycles of 20 seconds each per tooth. Irrigant concentration was measured by spectrophotometry. Results. In the first 4 stages, there were no concentration differences between groups. Stage 4.5 demonstrated a significant difference between the treated and control group. At saline irrigation stages, there was only a significant difference in stage E5. When activation was performed, the sodium hypochlorite curve maintained concentration values close to 5% in more stages in comparison to the control group. Conclusions: Passive ultrasonic activation demonstrated higher significant concentration of sodium hypochlorite, compared to a technique without activation.

Introducción: Resulta fundamental la remoción por completo del hidróxido de calcio previo a la obturación del canal radicular que podría impedir la penetración de los selladores en los túbulos dentinarios. Objetivo: Determinar la efectividad de la eliminación de la medicación con hidróxido de calcio del canal radicular de dientes utilizando diferentes sistemas de irrigación. Métodos: Se irrigaron con hipoclorito de sodio 148 conductos radiculares rectos de dientes humanos. Se utilizó Ca(OH)2 mezclado con tinta negra para rellenar los canales radiculares y facilitar la visualización. Los dientes se dividieron en 5 grupos de acuerdo al protocolo de eliminación. En cada uno de los grupos, la extrusión apical se midió durante la etapa de irrigación por el método Huang X, después de la eliminación del Ca(OH)2, se seccionaron longitudinalmente y luego, en un portaobjetos, se observaron las muestras bajo un microscopio óptico. Finalmente, se analizó el contenido para cuantificar el grado de extrusión causado durante el procedimiento clínico. Se utilizó el test de ANOVA para el análisis estadístico Resultados: Se encontró diferencias significativas entre los grupos 1-2, 1-3, 1-4 y 1-5. El promedio de remanecía fue superior (66,4 por ciento). Los grupos 2 (41,6 por ciento) y 5 (34,8 por ciento) obtuvieron mayor eficacia en la remoción. ANOVA (α = 0,05) determina que no existieron diferencias significativas entre los 5 grupos. Conclusiones: Los dispositivos de activación ultrasónica mostraron una mayor eliminación de la medicación con hidróxido de calcio desde las paredes dentinarias a las técnicas manuales, sin embargo, demostró ser una terapia más invasiva debido a una mayor extrusión de detritus(AU)
Introduction: Root canal sealing should indispensably be preceded by complete calcium hydroxide removal, otherwise the latter might prevent the penetration of the sealers into the dentinal tubules. Objective: Determine the effectiveness of eliminating calcium hydroxide medication from the root canal of teeth using various irrigation systems. Methods: Preparation was conducted of 148 straight root canals of human teeth irrigating with sodium hypochlorite. The root canals were filled with Ca(OH)2 mixed with black ink to facilitate visualization. The teeth were divided into 5 groups in compliance with the removal protocol. Apical extrusion was measured in each group during the irrigation stage using the Huang X method. After Ca(OH)2 removal they were sectioned longitudinally and placed on a slide for observation of the samples under an optical microscope. Finally the content was analyzed to quantify the degree of extrusion obtained during the clinical procedure. The ANOVA test was used for statistical analysis. Results: Significant differences were found between the groups 1-2, 1-3, 1-4 and 1-5. Average remanence was above 66.4 percent. Groups 2 (41.6 percent) and 5 (34.8 percent) displayed higher removal efficacy. ANOVA (α = 0.05) did not determine any significant differences between the 5 groups. Conclusions: Ultrasonic activation obtained greater calcium hydroxide removal from the dentinal walls than manual techniques. However, it proved to be a more invasive therapy due to the greater detritus extrusion(AU)

Endodontic treatment consists of the cleaning and disinfecting the root canal system, which is achieved using adequate mechanical instru-mentation and chemical irrigation. Endodontic microorganisms are present in root canals in the form of a biofilm, and their elimination ensures the success of endodontic treatment. Irrigation is a key factor contributing to the elimination of this intraconduct biofilm, and different irrigator agents and irrigation techniques, such as irrigation with negative apical pressure, a novel automated irrigation mechanism based on suction intraconduct, have been used. In this study, we evaluated the ability of a negative apical pressure system with different concentrations of sodium hypochlorite and durations to reduce the microbial load. Materials and Methods: An intraradicular biofilm composed of Enterococcus faecalis and Candida albicans was generated during twenty-one days of static culture on one hundred mesio-vestibular roots of upper molars with complex curvatures greater than 30°C, and the roots were classified in six groups with different concentrations and contact times of sodium hypochlorite. Subsequently, the reduction in the microbial load was measured with McFarland scale and the enumeration of colony forming units and was evaluated with scanning electronic microscopy. Results: We observed a significant difference in the reduction of the microbial load prior to instrumentation compared with postinstrumentation between the groups treated with 2.25% and 5.25% NaOCl for 30, 60 and 90 seconds of contact time (p<0.05), but we did not observe differences in the reduction of microbial load between different contact times and concentrations of sodium hypochlorite employed (p>0.05). Conclusion: Negative apical pressure is a good option for irrigation in endodontics, as it allows the passage of the irrigation fluid along the total length of the root canal and produces a better antimicrobial effect.
El tratamiento de endodoncia consiste en la limpieza y desinfección del sistema de conducto radicular, lo que se logra utilizando instrumentación mecánica adecuada y riego químico. Los microorganismos endodónticos están presentes en los conductos radiculares en forma de una biopelícula, y su eliminación asegura el éxito del tratamiento endodóntico. La irrigación es un factor clave que contribuye a la eliminación de esta biopelícula intraconductora, y se han utilizado diferentes agentes irrigadores y técnicas de irrigación, como la irrigación con presión apical negativa, un nuevo mecanismo automatizado de irrigación basado en la intraconducción de succión. En este estudio, evaluamos la capacidad de un sistema de presión apical negativa con diferentes concentraciones de hipoclorito de sodio y duraciones para reducir la carga microbiana. Material y Métodos: Se generó una biopelícula intraradicular compuesta por Enterococcus faecalisy Candida albicans durante veintiún días de cultivo estático en cien raíces mesio-vestibulares de molares superiores con curvaturas complejas superiores a 30°C, y las raíces se clasificaron en seis grupos con diferentes concentraciones y tiempos de contacto de hipoclorito de sodio. Posteriormente, la reducción en la carga microbiana se midió con la escala de McFarland y la enumeración de las unidades formadoras de colonias y se evaluó con microscopía electrónica de barrido. Resultado: Observamos una diferencia significativa en la reducción de la carga microbiana antes de la instrumentación en comparación con la postinstrumentación entre los grupos tratados con NaOCl 2.25% y 5.25% durante 30, 60 y 90 segundos de tiempo de contacto (p<0.05), pero lo hicimos No se observan diferencias en la reducción de la carga microbiana entre los diferentes tiempos de contacto y las concentraciones de hipoclorito de sodio empleado (p>0.05). Conclusión:La presión apical negativa es una buena opción para el riego en endodoncia, ya que permite el paso del líquido de riego a lo largo de todo el conducto radicular y produce un mejor efecto antimicrobiano.

ABSTRACT Objective: To carry out a systematic literature review on the surgical treatment of chronic rhinosinusitis in the pediatric population. Data sources: A bibliographic review methodology was used, based on data from National Library of Medicine (Medline), PubMed, Latin American and Caribbean Health Sciences Literature (LILACS) and Scientific Electronic Library Online (SciELO), of the indexed works from 2006 to 2016, including the pediatric population from zero to 13 years of age. The search keywords according to Medical Subject Heading (MESH) and Health Sciences Descriptors (DeCS) were: child, surgery, sinusitis and chronic disease. A total of 318 articles were collected, five of which met the inclusion criteria and were used as a basis for this review. All articles were prospective cohort studies, level of evidence 2B, according to the criterion used by evidence-based medicine. Data synthesis: The literature agreed that the next step for the cases refractory to drug treatment in chronic rhinosinusitis in childhood would be surgery. Adenoidectomy would be the initial method, for the safety of the procedure and improvement in about 50% of the cases, although more significant results were found in patients who associated this procedure with facial sinus surgery. Conclusions: Surgical treatment should be indicated for chronic rhinosinusitis in childhood after treatment failure. The results pointed out that adenoidectomy, when associated with some type of approach to the facial sinus, present better results.
RESUMO Objetivo: Realizar uma revisão sistemática da literatura sobre o tratamento cirúrgico da rinossinusite crônica na população pediátrica. Fonte de dados: Utilizou-se metodologia de revisão bibliográfica, por meio de levantamentos nas bases de dados científicas National Library of Medicine (Medline), PubMed, Literatura Latino-americana e do Caribe em Ciências da Saúde (LILACS) e Scientific Electronic Library Online (SciELO), dos trabalhos indexados no período entre 2006 e 2016, incluindo a população pediátrica de zero a 13 anos. Os descritores de busca, segundo o Medical Subject Heading (MESH) e os Descritores em Ciências da Saúde (DeCS), foram: Child, Surgery, Sinusitis e Chronic Disease. Foram levantados 318 artigos, dos quais cinco preencheram os critérios de inclusão e foram usados como base para esta revisão.

Abstract Objective: This clinical study sought to evaluate the effectiveness of passive ultrasonic activation (PUA) in eliminating microorganisms in primary endodontic infection (PEI) after instrumentation of root canals using microbiological culture and checkerboard DNA-DNA hybridization. Methodology: Twenty root canals with PEI and apical periodontitis were selected. The root canals were instrumented and then randomly divided into 2 groups, according to the irrigation method: PUA and conventional needle irrigation (CNI). Microbiological samples were collected before instrumentation (S1), after instrumentation (S2) and after irrigation with 17% EDTA (S3). The samples were subjected to anaerobic culture technique and checkerboard DNA-DNA hybridization analysis. Results: A statistically significant difference was found between CNI (23.56%) and PUA (98.37%) regarding the median percentage values for culturable bacteria reduction (p<0.05). In the initial samples, the most frequently detected species was S. constellatus (50%), and after root canal treatment was E. faecalis (50%). Conclusion: Both treatments significantly decreased the number of bacterial species compared with the initial sample. However, no statistical difference in the total microbial load between PUA and CNI groups was detected. The number of cultivable anaerobic bacteria reduced significantly using PUA, and the bacterial composition and number of bacterial species after using either CNI or PUA was similar.

Optimal bowel preparation is essential for a more accurate, comfortable, and safe colonoscopy. The majority of postcolonoscopy colorectal cancers can be explained by procedural factors, mainly missed polyps or inadequate examination. Therefore the most important goal of optimal bowel preparation is to reduce the incidence of colorectal cancer. Although adequate preparation should be achieved in 85–90% or more of all colonoscopy as a quality indicator, unfortunately 20–30% shows inadequate preparation. Laxatives for oral colonoscopy bowel preparation can be classified into polyethylene glycol (PEG)-electrolyte lavage solution, osmotic laxatives, stimulant laxatives, and divided into high-volume solution (≥3 L) and low-volume solution (<3 L). The updated 2019 European Society of Gastrointestinal Endoscopy (ESGE) guideline is broadly similar to the 2014 American Society for Gastrointestinal Endoscopy (ASGE) recommendations and reaffirms the importance of split-dosing. However, new ESGE guideline, unlike the 2014 ASGE recommendation, suggests the use of high volume or low volume PEG-based regimens as well as that of non-PEG based agents that have been clinically validated for most outpatient scenarios. For effective, safe, and highly adherent bowel preparation, physicians who prescribe and implement colonoscopy should properly know the advantages and limitations, the dosing, and the timing of regimens. Recently many studies have attempted to find the most ideal regimens, and more convenient, effective, and safe regimens have been developed by reducing the dosing volume and improving the taste. The high tolerability and acceptability of the new low-volume regimens suggest us how we should use it to increase the participation of the national colorectal cancer screening program.
