ABSTRACT

Abstract Objective To analyze the agreement, in relation to the 90th percentile, of ultrasound measurements of abdominal circumference (AC) and estimated fetal weight (EFW), between the World Health Organization (WHO) and the International Fetal and Newborn Growth Consortium for the 21st Century (intergrowth-21st) tables, as well as regarding birth weight in fetuses/newborns of diabetic mothers. Methods Retrospective study with data from medical records of 171 diabetic pregnant women, single pregnancies, followed between January 2017 and June 2018. Abdominal circumference and EFW data at admission (from 22 weeks) and predelivery (up to 3 weeks) were analyzed. These measures were classified in relation to the 90th percentile. The Kappa coefficient was used to analyze the agreement of these ultrasound variables between the WHO and intergrowth-21st tables, as well as, by reference table, these measurements and birth weight. Results The WHO study reported 21.6% large-for-gestational-age (LGA) newborns while the intergrowth-21st reported 32.2%. Both tables had strong concordances in the assessment of initial AC, final AC, and initial EFW (Kappa = 0.66, 0.72 and 0.63, respectively) and almost perfect concordance in relation to final EFW (Kappa = 0.91). Regarding birth weight, the best concordances were found for initial AC (WHO: Kappa = 0.35; intergrowth-21st: Kappa= 0.42) and with the final EFW (WHO: Kappa = 0.33; intergrowth- 21st: Kappa = 0.35). Conclusion The initial AC and final EFW were the parameters of best agreement regarding birth weight classification. The WHO and intergrowth-21st tables showed high agreement in the classification of ultrasound measurements in relation to the 90th


Resumo Objetivo Analisar a concordância, em relação ao percentil 90, das medidas ultrassonográficas da circunferência abdominal (CA) e peso fetal estimado (PFE), entre as tabelas da Organização Mundial de Saúde (OMS) e do International Fetal and Newborn Growth Consortium for the 21st Century integrowth-21st, bem como em relação ao peso ao nascer em fetos/recém-nascidos de mães diabéticas. Métodos Estudo retrospectivo com dados de prontuários de 171 gestantes diabéticas, com gestações únicas, seguidas entre Janeiro de 2017 e Junho de 2018. Foram analisados dados da CA e do PFE na admissão (a partir de 22 semanas) e no pré-parto (até 3 semanas). Essas medidas foram classificadas em relação ao percentil 90. O coeficiente Kappa foi utilizado para analisar a concordância entre as tabelas da OMS e Intergrowth-21st, assim como, por tabela de referência, entre as medidas e o peso ao nascer. Resultados O estudo da OMS relatou 21,6% dos recém nascidos grandes para a idade gestacional (GIG) enquanto que o estudo do intergrowth-21st relatou 32,2%. Ambas as tabelas tiveram fortes concordâncias na avaliação da CA inicial e final e PFE inicial (Kappa= 0,66, 0,72 e 0,63, respectivamente) e concordância quase perfeita em relação ao PFE final (Kappa= 0,91).Emrelação ao peso ao nascer, asmelhores concordâncias foram encontradas para aCAinicial (OMS: Kappa= 0,35; intergrowth-21st: Kappa= 0,42) e como PFE final (OMS: Kappa = 0,33; intergrowth-21st: Kappa= 0,35). Conclusão A CA inicial e o PFE final foram os parâmetros de melhor concordância em relação à classificação do peso ao nascer. As tabelas da OMS e intergrowth-21st mostraram alta concordância na classificação das medidas ultrassonográficas em relação ao percentil 90. Estudos são necessários para confirmar se alguma dessas tabelas é superior na previsão de resultados negativos a curto e longo prazo no grupo GIG.

ABSTRACT

Abstract BACKGROUND: Obesity is considered a chronic low-grade inflammatory disease that shares mediators of inflammation with psoriasis, such as TNF-α and IL-6. The relationship between these two conditions involves factors such as predisposition and response to therapy, in addition to an association with cardiovascular disease. OBJECTIVES: The aim of the present study was to investigate the prevalence of adiposity as determined by body mass index (BMI), waist circumference (WC), and dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) evaluation in patients with psoriasis. METHODS: BMI, WC and body composition by DXA were measured in 42 psoriatic patients without joint complaints and in 41 control patients using standard procedures. In the comparison between cases and controls, we used Pearson’s Χ2 test or Fisher’s exact test, and the nonparametric Mann-Whitney test. The difference between the diverse classification methods for obesity was evaluated using McNemar’s test. To test the level of agreement between those variables, we used the weighted kappa coefficient. RESULTS: There was no difference in the prevalence of obesity among cases and controls. Both BMI and WC had low agreement with measures of body fat evaluated by DXA. With the use of DXA scanning, prevalence of overweight and obesity in patients with psoriasis was 83.3%, which constitutes a strong evidence of the need for intervention on this metabolic parameter. CONCLUSION: Dual energy X-ray absorptiometry was more capable of identifying obesity compared with BMI and WC both in psoriatic and control patients.

ABSTRACT

OBJETIVO: Identificar fatores associados a alterações do teste oral de tolerância à glicose (TOTG), independentemente da glicemia de jejum (GJ). SUJEITOS E MÉTODOS: 377 pacientes (53,8 ± 15,2 anos; 77,7 por cento mulheres e IMC = 31,4 ± 5,9 kg/m²), sem história de diabetes melito (DM), foram submetidos ao TOTG e comparados de acordo com o resultado: normal (NGT), intolerantes (IGT) e DM. RESULTADOS: 202 pacientes (53,6 por cento) apresentaram TOTG alterado, sendo identificados 69 com DM (18,3 por cento) e 133 com IGT (35,3 por cento). Na análise multivariada, os fatores, além da GJ, que se associaram (P < 0,05) ao TOTG alterado foram: idade (DM = 58,7 ± 12,9; IGT = 56,7 ± 14,3; NGT = 49,6 ± 15,6 anos), hipertensão arterial (DM = 69,6 por cento; IGT = 63,9 por cento; NGT = 43,4 por cento), GJ (DM = 111,9 ± 9,2; IGT = 103,5 ± 10,3; NGT = 96,6 ± 11,1 mg/dL), HbA1C (DM = 6,1 ± 0,7 por cento; IGT = 6,1 ± 0,5 por cento; NGT = 5,8 ± 0,4 por cento), triglicérides (DM = 179,3 ± 169,9; IGT = 154,2 ± 84,1; NGT = 129,1 ± 71,9 mg/dL), HDL-c (DM = 44,7 ± 9,2; IGT = 47,5 ± 12,3; NGT = 50,6 ± 13,4 mg/dL) e ácido úrico em mulheres (DM = 5,3 ± 1,5; IGT = 5,3 ± 1,3; NGT = 4,7 ± 1,3 mg/dL). CONCLUSÃO: Idade, hipertensão arterial, níveis elevados de triglicérides, de HbA1C e de ácido úrico (em mulheres) e baixos níveis de HDL-c se associam a alterações do TOTG em pacientes com sobrepeso/obesidade, independentemente da GJ.


OBJECTIVE: To identify factors associated with changes in oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT), regardless of fasting glucose (FG). SUBJECTS AND METHODS: 377 patients (53.8 ± 15.2 years, 77.7 percent women and BMI = 31.4 ± 5.9 kg/m²) with no history of diabetes mellitus(DM), underwent OGTT and compared according to the results: normal (NGT), impaired (IGT) and DM. RESULTS: 202 patients (53.6 percent) had altered glucose tolerance: 69 with DM (18.3 percent) and 133 with IGT (35.3 percent). In multivariate analysis, factors regardless of FG that were associated (P < 0.05) with changes in the OGTT were age (DM = 58.7 ± 12.9; IGT = 56.7 ± 14.3; NGT = 49.6 ± 15.6 years), hypertension (DM = 69.6 percent; IGT = 63.9 percent; NGT = 43.4 percent), FG (DM = 111.9 ± 9.2; IGT = 103.5 ± 10.3; NGT = 96.6 ± 11.1 mg/dL), HbA1C (DM = 6.1 ± 0.7 percent; IGT = 6.1 ± 0.5 percent; NGT = 5.8 ± 0.4 percent), triglycerides (DM = 179.3 ± 169.9; IGT = 154.2 ± 84.1; NGT = 129.1 ± 71.9 mg/dL), HDL-c (DM =44.7 ± 9.2; IGT = 47.5 ± 12.3; NGT = 50.6 ± 13.4 mg/dL) and uric acid in women (DM = 5.3 ± 1.5; IGT = 5.3 ± 1.3; NGT = 4.7 ± 1.3 mg/dL). CONCLUSION: Age, hypertension, elevated triglycerides, HbA1C, uric acid (in women) and low HDL-C are associated with changes in the OGTT patients with overweight / obesity, irrespective of FG.

ABSTRACT

A gravidade da coexistência de hipertensão pulmonar e gravidez está bem estabelecida. A hipertensão arterial pulmonar constitui condição com elevado risco de morte materna no final da gravidez e pós-parto. Pacientes portadores de hipertensão portal de várias etiologias podem desenvolver hipertensão arterial pulmonar (hipertensão portopulmonar), sendo a maioria dos casos relatados na cirrose hepática, entretanto uns poucos casos foram descritos na hipertensão portal não cirrótica. Säo apresentados o quadro clínico e anatomopatológico em dois casos de hipertensão portopulmonar e gravidez. Tratava-se de pacientes com 30 e 24 anos de idade, que desenvolveram insuficiência cardíaca direita grave e choque no puerpério imediato, evoluindo rapidamente para o óbito. A necropsia demonstrou em ambos os casos fibrose nos espaços portais, correspondendo ao relatado na hipertensão portal idiopática, além de hipertensão pulmonar classificada como plexogênica
