ABSTRACT

El presente estudio es una comparación del dolor abdominal producido por trastornos gastrointestinales, aliviado por Ageratina ligustrina , entre los grupos maya Tzeltal, Tzotzil y Q ́eqchi ́, el cual integró un enfoque etnomédico, etnobotánico y transcultural, comparando estudios previos con el presente trabajo de campo. Para evaluar la eficacia de Ageratina para aliviar el dolor abdominal, se realizó un inventario de las moléculas reportadas en esta especie, así como de su actividad farmacológica, a través de una revisión bibliográfica. Los resultados mostraron que la epidemiología del dolor producido por TGI, su etnobotánica y el modelo explicativo del dolor abdominal fueron similares entre grupos étnicos. Asimismo, se identificaron 27 moléculas con efectos antiinflamatorios y antinociceptivos, lo que podría explicar por qué esta especie es culturalmente importante para los pobladores maya Tzeltal, Tzotzil y Q ́eqch i ́ para el alivio del dolor abdominal, mientras que, desde el punto de vista biomédico, es una especie con potencial para inhibir el dolor visceral.


The current study is a comparison of the abdominal pain conception produced by gastrointestinal disorders, relieved by Ageratina ligustrina , among inhabitants of the Mayan Tzeltal, Tzotzil, and Q'eqchi' groups ethnomedical, ethnobotanical, and cross -cultural approaches were used to compare previous studies with the present field work. To evaluate the efficacy of A. ligustrina to relieve pain, also through a bibliographic review an inventory of the molecules present in this species was performed, as well as their pharmacological activity. The results showed that the epidemiology of pain produced by GID, its ethnobotany, and the explanatory model of abdominal pain are similar among ethnic groups. Likewise, 27 molecules with anti-inflammatory and anti-nociceptive effects were identified, which could explain why this species is culturally important for the Mayan Tzeltal, Tzotzil, and Q'eqchi' groups for the relief of abdominal pain, while, from a biomedical point of view, it is a species with potential to inhibit visceral pain.

ABSTRACT

Oxidative stress is a key cause of gastrointestinal disorders, primarily stomach ulcers. Multiple intrinsic and extrinsic mechanisms caused the body to produce reactive oxygen species (ROS). The body's antioxidant defense system protects against these reactive species. When the degree of ROS production exceeds the normal range, the body's natural defense system fails to neutralize these dangerous free radicals, necessitating need for an exogenous source of natural antioxidants. Natural herbal remedies have been widely employed as antioxidants to relieve oxidative stress in gastric ulcers. Polyphenols, tannins, essential oils, flavonoids, notably quercetin, carotenoids, vitamin C, vitamin A, and minerals are among the molecules of immense interest in bioassays due to their significant antioxidant effects. In the present review, several natural anti-ulcer medicinal plants along with their antioxidative mechanism have been reported. Electronic databases including PubMed, Google Scholar and Scopus were explored to identify the antioxidant and gastroprotective potential of all the plants.


El estrés oxidativo es una causa clave de trastornos gastrointestinales, principalmente úlceras estomacales. Múltiples mecanismos intrínsecos y extrínsecos hacen que el cuerpo produzca especies reactivas de oxígeno (ROS). El sistema de defensa antioxidante del cuerpo protege contra estas especies reactivas. Cuando el grado de producción de ROS excede el rango normal, el sistema de defensa natural del cuerpo no logra neutralizar estos peligrosos radicales libres, lo que requiere de una fuente exógena de antioxidantes naturales. Los remedios herbales naturales se han empleado ampliamente como antioxidantes para aliviar el estrés oxidativo en las úlceras gástricas. Los polifenoles, los taninos, los aceites esenciales, los flavonoides, en particular la quercetina, los carotenoides, la vitamina C, la vitamina A y los minerales se encuentran entre las moléculas de mayor interés en los bioensayos debido a sus importantes efectos antioxidantes. En la presente revisión se han reportado varias plantas medicinales naturales antiulcerosas junto con su mecanismo antioxidante. Se exploraron bases de datos electrónicas como PubMed, Google Scholar y Scopus para identificar el potencial antioxidante y gastroprotector de todas las plantas.

ABSTRACT

The purpose of the study is to analyze the outcomes of randomized controlled trial(RCT) of Chinese herbal medicine formula(CHMF) in the treatment of gastrointestinal dysfunction in sepsis in recent two years. We systematically searched four Chinese databases, three English databases, and two clinical trial registries to analyze the reports of outcome indicators of clinical trials, and evaluated the risk of bias by using the ROB tool of Cochrane Collaboration. After screening, 55 clinical RCTs were included. The results showed that the current clinical studies of gastrointestinal dysfunction in sepsis reported the efficacy and safety indicators. The efficacy indicators included APACHE Ⅱ scores, gastrointestinal dysfunction scores, bowel sound scores, and inflammatory indicator such as C-reactive protein and procalcitonin. The safety indicators mainly include gastrointestinal reactions, skin reactions, and other adverse events and adverse reactions. However, there was no distinction between primary and secondary outcomes. The relevant indicators of health economics were not reported, and the quality of research methodology was poor. Therefore, we suggest that future researchers should be well prepared in the top-level design stage and actively construct the core outcome set, so as to improve the quality of clinical trials.

ABSTRACT

Abstract This study evaluated the economic impact of gastrointestinal nematode (GIN) infection in Morada Nova lambs under different parasite chemical control conditions. For this, 246 lambs, in the rainy and dry season, were randomized into groups according to their anthelmintic treatment with levamisole: control (CT: no treatment); routine treatment (RT: treated every 42 days); and targeted selective treatment (TST: treated according to the average daily weight gain, DWG). From 63 days of age (D63) to D210, the lambs were weighed and monitored for GIN infection parameters. Spending on anthelmintics in the production system was 1.3% of the total economic result. The economic result per animal (R$ 5.00 = US$ 1.00) was higher in the RT group, amounting to US$ 6.60 in the rainy and US$ 5.69 in the dry season, due to higher DWG. Thus, RT presented economic results 14.4% and 10.9% higher than CT, and 7.2% and 1.9% higher than TST, in the rainy and dry season, respectively. However, fast development of resistance made RT unfeasible. Here, the economic impact of GIN infection on a national scale is discussed, demonstrating its importance and the impossibility of profitable and sustainable sheep production without adequate control.


Resumo Este estudo avaliou o impacto econômico da infecção por nematoides gastrintestinais (NGI), em cordeiros Morada Nova, sob diferentes condições de controle químico dos parasitas. Para isso, 246 cordeiros, na estação chuvosa e seca, foram randomizados em grupos de acordo com o tratamento com levamisol: controle (TC: sem tratamento); tratamento rotineiro (TR: tratado a cada 42 dias); e tratamento seletivo direcionado (TST: tratado de acordo com o ganho de peso médio diário, GMD). Dos 63 dias de idade (D63) ao D210, os cordeiros foram pesados ​​e monitorados quanto aos parâmetros de infecção por NGI. O gasto com anti-helmínticos no sistema produtivo foi de 1,3% do resultado econômico total. O resultado econômico por animal (R$ 5,00 = US$ 1,00) foi maior no grupo RT, totalizando US$ 6,60 na estação chuvosa e US$ 5,69 na seca, devido ao maior GMD. Assim, o RT apresentou resultados econômicos 14,4% e 10,9% superiores ao TC, e 7,2% e 1,9% superiores ao TST, no período chuvoso e seco, respectivamente. Entretanto o rápido desenvolvimento de resistência inviabiliza o TR. O impacto econômico da infecção por NGI em escala nacional são aqui discutidos, demonstrando sua importância e a impossibilidade de uma ovinocultura lucrativa e sustentável sem o controle adequado.

ABSTRACT

La aparición del coronavirus tipo 2 del Síndrome Respiratorio Agudo grave (SARS-CoV-2) y su afectación como nuevo Coronavirus de 2019 (Covid-19), ha sido sorprendente por su rápido contagio y progresión de la enfermedad. Todos los grupos etarios pueden ser afectados, pero la población vulnerable es aquella que tiene más de 50 años, inmunosupresión, malnutridos o enfermedades degenerativas no transmisibles como hipertensión, diabetes y enfermedades pulmonares. Aquellos pacientes con múltiples morbilidades se encuentran asociados a procesos de malnutrición y son ellos los que podrían llegar a desarrollar complicaciones por la enfermedad y necesitar de cuidados intensivos1. El correcto manejo del estado nutricional busca prevenir el riesgo de complicaciones relacionadas con el déficit calórico proteico y el aumento de la actividad catabólica; la bibliografía detalla cómo la malnutrición genera compromiso al disminuir la musculatura respiratoria, cardíaca, esquelética y coadyuvar a la falla orgánica. El reto para la nutrición en esta pandemia es poder identificar a la población en riesgo y crear un soporte nutricional adecuado para cada paciente2. Las guías de manejo proporcionan recomendaciones útiles y rápidas para el diagnóstico y tratamiento nutrioterapéutico especializado.


The emergence of the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus type 2 (SARS-CoV-2), and its affectation as the new Coronavirus of 2019 (Covid- 19), has been surprising due to its rapid transmission and disease progression. All age groups can be affected, but the vulnerable population is those over 50 years of age, immunosuppression, malnourished or non-communicable degenerative diseases such as hypertension, diabetes and pulmonary diseases. Those patients with multiple morbidities are associated with malnutrition processes and they are the ones who could develop complications due to the disease and require intensive care1. The correct management of nutritional status seeks to prevent the risk of complications related to protein caloric deficit and increased catabolic activity; the literature details how malnutrition generates compromise by decreasing respiratory, cardiac and skeletal muscle and contributing to organ failure. The challenge for nutrition in this pandemic is to identify the population at risk and create adequate nutritional support for each patient2. Management guidelines provide useful and rapid recommendations for diagnosis and specialized nutriotherapeutic treatment.

ABSTRACT

The network pharmacology and molecular docking methods were used to explore the mechanism of Jinweitai Capsules in the treatment of acute and chronic gastritis, gastric and duodenal ulcers, and chronic colitis. The chemical components of herbs in Jinweitai Capsules were collected through TCMSP, CNKI and PubMed. Target prediction was performed through PubChem and SwissTargetPrediction databases; genes relating to acute and chronic gastritis, gastric and duodenal ulcers, chronic colitis were collected from OMIM database; potential targets of Jinweitai Capsules for relevant gastrointestinal diseases were obtained by Venny analysis; DAVID database was used to perform GO and KEGG enrichment analysis; protein interactions were obtained by STRING database and visua-lized by Cytoscape; AutoDockVina was used for molecular docking of AKT1, EGFR, PTPN11 and its reverse-selected chemical components. Potential mechanisms of Jinweitai Capsules in treating relevant gastrointestinal diseases were clarified according to the results of the docking. The results showed 86 potential active ingredients of Jinweitai Capsules and 268 potential targets for treatment of acute and chronic gastritis, gastric and duodenal ulcers, and chronic colitis. KEGG pathway enrichment analysis showed that 20 pathways relating to acute and chronic gastritis, gastric and duodenal ulcers, and chronic colitis mainly involved calcium signaling pathway and chemokine signaling pathway. Molecular docking showed a good binding activity between AKT1, EGFR, PTPN11 and its reverse screening chemical components. Jinweitai Capsules may exert an effect in the treatment of acute and chronic gastritis, gastric and duodenal ulcers, and chronic colitis by acting on AKT1, EGFR, PTPN11 and other targets in 15 signal pathways relating to cell inflammation and immunity, cell proliferation and apoptosis, Helicobacter pylori infection, and gastrointestinal tract.

ABSTRACT

La acrodermatitis enteropática (AE) es una genodermatosis autosómica recesiva causada por la mutación del gen responsable de codificar a la proteína transportadora de Zinc (Zn) SLC39A4. A pesar de ser una rara enfermedad es de fácil manejo y gran relevancia clínica. Se caracteriza por la siguiente tríada: dermatitis acral y periorificial, diarrea y alopecia. Comunicamos un caso de presentación atípica en una lactante de 6 meses de edad con lesiones periorificiales y ampollas acrales que resolvió rápidamente con la terapia suplementaria con Zinc (AU)


Enteropathic acrodermatitis is an autosomal recessive genodermatosis caused by the mutation of the gene responsible for encoding the Zinc transporter protein SLC39A4. Despite being a rare disease, it is easy to manage and of great clinical relevance. It is characterized by the following triad: acral and periorificial dermatitis, diarrhea and alopecia. We report a case of atypical presentation in an almost 6-month-old infant with periorificial lesions and acral blisters that quickly resolved with supplemental Zinc therapy (AU)

ABSTRACT

Abstract An evaluation was made of the effect of anthelmintic treatments on the performance of Simmental X Nellore crossbred calves before and after weaning. To this end, the calves were divided into three groups: (1) treated monthly with a low efficacy anthelmintic drug, ivermectin; (2) treated monthly with a highly effective anthelmintic drug, albendazole; and (3) untreated control group. All the groups in this experiment showed an average fecal egg count of less than 400 eggs per gram (EPG), and no clinical signs of parasitic gastroenteritis. The blood variables were within the normal range and no calf presented anemia. In most of the samplings, mean EPGs were significantly lower (P<0.05) in the group treated with albendazole. The calves received dietary supplementation before and after weaning, which enabled them to gain weight in every month of the experiment and reach a body weight of about 250 kg on the last sampling date, before turning one year old. The anthelmintic treatments did not affect body weight gain, leading to the conclusion that, when fed with suitable dietary supplements, Simmental X Nellore crossbred calves are not affected by gastrointestinal nematode parasites acquired by grazing.


Resumo O objetivo do experimento foi avaliar o efeito de tratamentos anti-helmínticos no desempenho de bezerros Simental x Nelore antes e após o desmame. Os bezerros foram alocados em três grupos: (1) tratado mensalmente com anti-helmínticos de baixa eficácia, ivermectina; (2) tratado mensalmente com anti-helmíntico de alta eficácia, albendazol e (3) controle não tratado. A média das contagens de ovos de nematoides durante o experimento foi inferior a 400 ovos por grama (OPG) em todos os grupos sem manifestação clínica de gastroenterite parasitária. As variáveis ​​sanguíneas mantiveram-se dentro dos limites de normalidade e nenhum bezerro apresentou anemia. Na maioria das coletas, as médias de OPG foram significativamente inferiores (P<0,05) no grupo tratado com albendazol. Os bezerros receberam suplementação antes e depois do desmame, o que lhes permitiu ganhar peso em todos os meses do experimento, atingindo peso corporal em torno de 250 kg, ao final do experimento, antes de completarem um ano de idade. Não houve efeito dos tratamentos anti-helmínticos no ganho em peso, o que permitiu concluir que bezerros Nelore x Simental não são afetados pelo parasitismo por nematoides gastrintestinais sob condições de pastejo, quando devidamente suplementados com concentrado.

ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT Objective To estimate the prevalence of use of drugs to treat gastrointestinal disorders, according to demographic, socioeconomic, and health characteristics of the Brazilian population. Methods This is a population-based survey that interviewed individuals residing in cities of the five regions in Brazil. The study sample was composed of 32,348 individuals aged 20 or more years. The profile of use of drugs for gastrointestinal disorders was evaluated considering the variables sex, age, healthcare plan, region, and number of chronic diseases. We also analyzed the frequency of individuals who declared using other drugs, besides those already employed for treatment of gastrointestinal disorders. Additionally, the estimated frequencies of the drug classes used were determined. Results The prevalence of use of drugs for gastrointestinal disorders in Brazil was 6.9% (95% confidence interval − 6.4-7.6), higher in females, among persons aged over 60 years, in those who had a private healthcare insurance, and presented with two or more chronic diseases. It was noted that 42.9% of the aged who used drugs for gastrointestinal disorders were also on polypharmacy. As to the classes of drugs, 82% corresponded to drugs for the food tract and metabolism, particularly proton pumps inhibitors. Conclusion The use of drugs for treatment of gastrointestinal disorders was significant among women and elderly. In this age group, consumption may be linked to gastric protection due to polypharmacy. This study is an unprecedented opportunity to observe the self-reported consumption profile of these drugs in Brazil and, therefore, could subsidize strategies to promote their rational use.


RESUMO Objetivo Estimar a prevalência de utilização de medicamentos para o tratamento de distúrbios gastrintestinais, segundo características demográficas, socioeconômicas e de saúde da população brasileira. Métodos Trata-se de inquérito de base populacional, que entrevistou indivíduos residentes em municípios das cinco regiões do Brasil. A amostra deste estudo foi composta por 32.348 indivíduos de 20 anos ou mais de idade. Foi avaliado o perfil de utilização de medicamentos para distúrbios gastrintestinais entre as variáveis sexo, idade, plano de saúde, região e número de doenças crônicas. Analisou-se a frequência de indivíduos que declararam utilizar outros medicamentos, além daqueles já utilizados para tratamento de distúrbios gastrintestinais. Além disso, foram estimadas as frequências das classes medicamentosas utilizadas. Resultados A prevalência de utilização de medicamentos para distúrbios gastrintestinais no Brasil foi de 6,9% (intervalo de confiança de 95% − 6,4-7,6), sendo maior no sexo feminino, entre pessoas acima de 60 anos de idade, naqueles que possuíam plano privado de saúde e tinham duas ou mais doenças crônicas. Observou-se que 42,9% dos idosos que utilizaram medicamentos para distúrbios gastrintestinais também eram polimedicados. Em relação às classes medicamentosas, 82% correspondiam a medicamentos para o trato alimentar e metabolismo, destacando os inibidores da bomba de prótons. Conclusão A utilização de medicamentos para tratamento de distúrbios gastrintestinais foi significativa entre mulheres e idosos. Nesta faixa etária, o consumo pode estar vinculado à proteção gástrica causada por polimedicação. Este estudo representa oportunidade inédita para observar o perfil de consumo autorreferido desses medicamentos no Brasil e pode, portanto, subsidiar estratégias para promoção de seu uso racional.

ABSTRACT

Abstract The purpose of this work was to identify, critically assess, and summarize available data from primary research about the anthelmintic resistance of injectable macrocyclic lactones in cattle. Meta-analysis was performed to estimate the pooled Odds Ratio and 95% Confidence Intervals. Of the 1504 abstracts screened for eligibility, 80 were deemed relevant for full publication review. Thirteen publications were included in the qualitative synthesis and assessed for systematic bias. Only five studies were included in the quantitative analysis because they showed a low risk of producing biased results in all the parameters. The forest plot indicated four studies that discuss anthelmintic resistance (P<0.05), while only one study did not discuss anthelmintic resistance (P<0.05). The pooled estimate showed 0.59 (95% Confidence intervals: 0.08, 0.47) times higher odds for studies that report anthelmintic resistance than for studies reporting efficacious anthelmintic treatment, with significant and substantially low heterogeneity (I2=25%). Anthelmintic resistance to injectable macrocyclic lactones is a reality. There are need to improve methodological reporting in studies, which is a problem for investigations that involves systematic review and meta-analysis (SR-MA).


Resumo O objetivo deste trabalho foi identificar, avaliar criticamente e resumir os dados disponíveis da literatura primária sobre resistência anti-helmíntica a lactonas macrocíclicas injetáveis em bovinos. Uma meta-análise foi realizada para estimar o "Odds Ratio" e Intervalos de Confiança (95%). Dos 1504 resumos selecionados para elegibilidade, 80 foram considerados relevantes para a revisão completa da publicação. Treze publicações foram incluídas na síntese qualitativa, as quais foram avaliadas quanto ao viés sistemático. Apenas cinco estudos foram incluídos na análise quantitativa porque apresentaram um baixo risco de produzir resultados tendenciosos em todos os parâmetros. O gráfico de floresta indicou quatro estudos que apresentaram resistência anti-helmíntica (P <0,05), enquanto um não apresentou (P <0,05). A estimativa combinada mostrou uma maior probabilidade de publicações de estudos que relatam resistência anti-helmíntica no valor de 0,59 (95%: 0,8, 0,47) do que estudos relatando tratamento anti-helmíntico eficaz. Os dados apresentaram baixa heterogeneidade (I2 = 25%). A resistência anti-helmíntica a lactonas macrocíclicas é uma realidade. Há a necessidade de melhorar a metodologia dos estudos, pois é um problema para os trabalhos que envolvem revisões sistemáticas e meta-análises (RS-MA).

ABSTRACT

Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) are one of the most widely used types of drugs in clinical practice, designed to treat highly prevalent pathologies in the clinical activity of gastroenterology. Despite having precise and approved indications, reports have described a use beyond the established indications, such as management of various symptoms of the digestive tract or associated with polypharmacy, considering that their indication could be questionable in a significant percentage of individuals on prolonged treatment with PPI. In recent years, several basic, clinical and epidemiological studies have warned of possible adverse events associated with the use of PPIs that have generated concern in physicians and patients, and an impact on the public opinion due to the wide use of these drugs among the population. The purpose of this review is to critically analyze the available evidence regarding adverse events associated with the use of PPIs, in addition to providing some recommendations for clinical practice


Los inhibidores de bomba de protones (IBP) son fármacos ampliamente usados en la práctica clínica, destinados a tratar patologías altamente prevalentes en la actividad clínica de gastroenterología. Pese a contar con indicaciones precisas y aprobadas, reportes han descrito un uso más allá de las indicaciones establecidas, como manejo de diversos síntomas del tracto digestivo o asociado a polifarmacia, considerándose que su indicación podría ser cuestionable en un porcentaje importante de individuos en tratamiento prolongado con IBP. En los últimos años, diversos estudios básicos, clínicos y epidemiológicos han alertado sobre posibles eventos adversos asociados al uso de IBP que han generado preocupación en tratantes y pacientes, además de impactar en la opinión pública por la amplia distribución del uso de estos fármacos en la población. El objetivo de esta revisión es analizar críticamente la evidencia disponible respecto a los eventos adversos asociados al uso de IBP, además de entregar algunas recomendaciones para la práctica clínica.

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE: To analyse the perception of psychosocial factors and mental workload of nurses who work in intensive care units. It is hypothesised that nurses in these units could perceive psychosocial risks, manifesting in a high mental work load. The psychosocial dimension related to the position's cognitive demands is hypothesised to mostly explain mental work load. METHOD: Quantitative study, with a descriptive, cross-sectional, and comparative design. A total of 91% of the intensive care unit populations of three Chilean hospitals was surveyed, corresponding to 111 nurses. The instruments utilised included (A) a biosociodemographic history questionnaire; (b) the SUSESO-ISTAS 21 questionnaire; and (c) the Mental Work Load Subjective Scale (ESCAM, in Spanish). RESULTS: In total, 64% and 57% of participants perceived high levels of exposure to the psychosocial risks Psychosocial demands and Double shift, respectively. In addition, a medium-high level of overall mental load was observed. Positive and significant correlations between some of the SUSESO-ISTAS 21 and ESCAM dimensions were obtained. Using a regression analysis, it was determined that three dimensions of the psychosocial risk questionnaire helped to explain 38% of the overall mental load. CONCLUSION: Intensive care unit nurses felt that inadequate psychosocial factors and mental work overload existed in several of the tested dimensions. .


OBJETIVO: analisar a percepção de fatores psicossociais e a carga mental de trabalho de enfermeiros que trabalham em unidades de terapia intensiva. A hipótese é que os enfermeiros dessas unidades podem perceber os riscos psicossociais e manifestar uma alta carga mental de trabalho. Além disso, a dimensão psicossocial relacionada às demandas cognitivas do cargo explicaria a maior parte da carga mental de trabalho. MÉTODO: estudo quantitativo, com delineamento descritivo, transversal e comparativo. Foi examinada 91% da população das Unidades de Terapia Intensiva de três hospitais chilenos, correspondente a 111 enfermeiros. Os instrumentos utilizados incluíram (a) um questionário do histórico biossociodemográfico; (b) o questionário SUSESO-ISTAS 21; e (c) a Escala Subjetiva de Carga Mental de Trabalho (ESCAM). RESULTADOS: no total, 64% e 57% dos participantes perceberam um alto nível de exposição aos riscos psicossociais Demanda psicológica e Jornada dupla, respectivamente. Além disso, foi observado um nível de médio para alto de carga mental global. Foram obtidas correlações positivas e significativas entre algumas das dimensões do SUSESO-ISTAS 21 e do ESCAM. Utilizando uma análise de regressão, determinou-se que três dimensões do questionário de risco psicossocial ajudaram a explicar 38% da carga mental total. CONCLUSÃO: os enfermeiros das unidades de terapia intensiva percebem os fatores psicossociais e a sobrecarga mental de trabalho em várias de suas dimensões. .

ABSTRACT

AIM: qualitative study, which aimed to identify the barriers that influence nursing care practices related to the sexuality of women with gynecological and breast cancer. METHODS: the study was conducted with 16 professionals of the nursing area (nurses, nursing technicians and nursing assistants) from two sectors of a university hospital situated in the state of São Paulo, Brazil. The data was collected using semi-structured, in-depth individual interviews. All the interviews were recorded and the participants' responses were identified and categorized using Content Analysis. RESULTS: three major themes were identified. These are as follows: 1) barriers related to the biomedical model; 2) barriers related to institutional dynamics and 3) barriers related to the social interpretations of sexuality. CONCLUSIONS: the results of this study showed that the systematized inclusion of this issue in nursing care routines requires changes in the health paradigm and in the work dynamic, as well as reflection on the personal values and social interpretations related to the topic. A major challenge is to divest sexuality of the taboos and prejudices which accompany it, as well as to contribute to the nursing team being more aware of the difficulties faced by women with gynaecological and breast cancer. .


OBJETIVO: estudo qualitativo cujo objetivo é identificar as barreiras que influenciam as práticas de enfermagem relacionadas à sexualidade no cuidado de mulheres com câncer de mama e ginecológico. MÉTODO: o estudo foi conduzido com 16 profissionais da equipe de enfermagem (enfermeiras, técnicas de enfermagem e auxiliares de enfermagem) de dois setores de um hospital universitário situado no estado de São Paulo. Os dados foram coletados em entrevista individual semiestruturada em profundidade. Todas as entrevistas foram gravadas e as respostas dos participantes agrupadas em categorias por meio da Análise de Conteúdo. RESULTADOS: três temas principais foram identificados: 1) barreiras relacionadas ao modelo biomédico; 2) barreiras relacionadas à dinâmica institucional e 3) barreiras relacionadas à interpretação social da sexualidade. CONCLUSÃO: os resultados deste estudo revelam que a inclusão da temática de forma sistematizada nas rotinas do cuidado de enfermagem exige mudanças no paradigma de saúde e na dinâmica do trabalho, além de reflexões sobre valores pessoais e interpretações sociais relativas ao tema. Um grande desafio consiste em destituir a sexualidade dos tabus e preconceitos que a acompanham, bem como contribuir para que a equipe de enfermagem seja mais consciente das dificuldades enfrentadas pelas mulheres com câncer ginecológico e mamário. .

ABSTRACT

OBJETIVO: Avaliar a incidência de SBID em crianças tratadas com omeprazol e testar se os probióticos influenciam essa incidência. MÉTODOS: Um ensaio duplo-cego controlado por placebo foi realizado em 70 crianças tratadas oralmente, durante 4 semanas, com 20 mg de omeprazol por dia. Desses, 36 indivíduos receberam diária e simultaneamente Lactobacillus rhamnosus R0011 (1,9 x 10(9) cfu) e Lactobacillus acidophillus R0052 (0,1 x 10(9) cfu) (grupo probiótico), enquanto 34 receberam placebo (grupo placebo). O diagnóstico de SBID teve como base o desenvolvimento de sintomas sugestivos em combinação com um teste respiratório com glicose positivo. RESULTADOS: Após um mês de tratamento com IBP, 30% (21/70) apresentaram um teste respiratório positivo sugerindo SBID; desses, 62% foram sintomáticos. Cinco crianças desenvolveram sintomas parecidos com os de SBID, mas apresentaram um teste respiratório negativo; 44 (63%) não apresentavam sintomas e tiveram teste respiratório negativo. Não houve diferença na incidência de testes respiratórios positivos no grupo probiótico em comparação ao grupo placebo (33% em comparação a 26,5%; p: 0,13). CONCLUSÕES: Como houve sintomas sugestivos de SBID em 26% das crianças tratadas com IBP e o teste respiratório com glicose deu resultados anormais em 72% delas, esse efeito colateral deve ser levado em consideração com mais frequência. O probiótico testado não reduziu o risco de desenvolver SBID.


OBJECTIVE:To evaluate the incidence of small bowel bacterial overgrowth (SBBO) in children treated with omeprazole, and to test whether probiotics influence the incidence. METHODS: A double-blinded, placebo-controlled trial was performed in 70 children treated orally during four weeks with 20 mg omeprazole per day. Lactobacillus rhamnosus R0011 (1.9 x 10(9) cfu) and Lactobacillus acidophillus R0052 (0.1 x 10(9) cfu) were simultaneously given daily to 36 subjects (probiotic group), while 34 subjects received placebo (placebo group). The diagnosis of SBBO was based on the development of suggestive symptoms, in combination with a positive glucose breath test. RESULTS: After one month of proton pump inhibitor (PPI) treatment, 30% (21/70) had a positive breath test suggesting SBBO; of these 62% were symptomatic. Five children developed SBBO-like symptoms, but had a negative breath test; and 44 (63%) were symptom free and had a negative breath test. There was no difference in the incidence of positive breath tests in the probiotic versus the placebo group (33% vs 26.5%; p = 0.13). CONCLUSIONS: Since symptoms suggesting SBBO developed in 26% of PPI-treated children, and since the glucose breath test was abnormal in 72% of these, this side-effect should be more frequently considered. The probiotic tested did not decrease the risk to develop SBBO.

ABSTRACT

Bryophyllum pinnatum (Lam.) Kurz pertence a família Crassulaceae e é conhecida vulgarmente como coirama, folha-da-fortuna, ou folha-do-ar, sendo usada popularmente como antifúngico, no tratamento da hipertensão, em úlceras e em inflamações. O presente estudo objetivou analisar a atividade antiulcerogênica do extrato aquoso das folhas de Bryophyllum pinnatum (Lam.) Kurz em modelo de úlcera gástrica induzida por indometacina em Rattus norvegicus, machos (150 a 250 g) com idade de 70 dias. Os animais receberam por via oral: água, extrato aquoso de Bryophyllum pinnatum (Lam.) Kurz (1 e 2 g Kg-1 ) ou ranitidina (60 mg Kg-1 ), fármaco com ação gastroprotetora conhecida que atua bloqueando os receptores de histamina H2. Após uma hora dos tratamentos, todos animais receberam indometacina via intraperitoneal. Os resultados demonstraram que o extrato aquoso da Bryophyllum pinnatum (Lam.) Kurz possui ação gastroprotetora; na dose de 1 g Kg-1 inibiu 45,49% o índice de ulceração induzido pela indometacina, e, na dose de 2 g Kg-1, inibiu 49,50%. Sugere-se o envolvimento de vários mecanismos na ação gastroprotetora dessa planta e não somente uma possível participação das prostaglandinas nesse efeito. Estudos futuros com diferentes modelos de indução de úlcera gástrica tornam-se necessários para melhor avaliar a atividade antiulcerogênica do extrato aquoso de Bryophyllum pinnatum (Lam.) Kurz.


Bryophyllum pinnatum (Lam.) Kurz belongs to the family Crassulaceae, is popularly known as "coirama", "folha-da-fortuna", or "folha-do-ar" and has been commonly used as antifungal, in the treatment of hypertension, ulcers and inflammation. The present study aimed to analyze the antiulcerogenic activity of aqueous extract from the leaves of Bryophyllum pinnatum (Lam.) Kurz using indomethacin-induced gastric ulcer models in Rattus norvegicus, males (150-250 g) aged 70 days old. The animals received by the oral route: water, aqueous extract from Bryophyllum pinnatum (Lam.) Kurz (1 and 2 g Kg-1) or ranitidine (60 mg Kg-1), a drug with known gastroprotective action, blocking histamine H2-receptors. After one hour of treatments, all animals received indomethacin by the intraperitoneal route. Results demonstrated that the aqueous extract from Bryophyllum pinnatum (Lam.) Kurz has gastroprotective action; at 1g kg-1 it inhibited 45.49% of the indomethacin-induced ulcer index, while at 2g Kg-1 it inhibited 49.50%. Several mechanisms of actions are suggested to be involved in the gastroprotective action of this plant, besides the possible participation of prostaglandins in this effect. Further studies using different gastric ulcer-induction models are needed to better evaluate the antiulcerogenic activity of aqueous extract from Bryophyllum pinnatum (Lam.) Kurz.

ABSTRACT

El sistema gastrointestinal debe ser considerado parte de la infección por virus de inmunodeficiencia humana (VIH), tanto por su rol en la patogénesis de la enfermedad como por ser blanco de infecciones en etapas avanzadas de la enfermedad (bajo 200 linfocitos CD4/ul). A nivel orofaríngeo y esofágico la infección predominante es candidiasis, en caso de descartarse o no responder a tratamiento, el estudio con endoscopía digestiva alta y biopsia será lo más atingente para guiar el tratamiento. A nivel gástrico, las manifestaciones infecciosas son más infrecuentes y habitualmente encontradas durante el estudio endoscópico. El intestino delgado y grueso pueden sufrir lesiones focales asociadas a distintas infecciones, pero la manifestación más habitual será diarrea, ésta debe ser objeto de estudio etiológico no invasivo con cultivos para enteropatógenos, leucocitos fecales y coproparasitológico. Es recomendable también el estudio con toxina de Clostridium difficile, y en pacientes muy avanzadas (bajo 50 CD4 por ul), realizar tinción ácido alcohol resistente modificada en deposiciones y estudio de Microsporidia con tinción tricrómica. Si los síntomas persisten y el estudio es negativo, se debe realizar colonoscopía y biopsia. Si no se encuentra causa, debe considerarse la posibilidad de una enteropatía asociada a VIH. Varios agentes etiológicos descritos en distintos segmentos tienen tratamiento específico, pero la terapia antirretroviral es lo que logra erradicar el cuadro en la mayoría de los casos. No obstante, las reacciones adversas digestivas asociadas a terapia antirretroviral constituyen un diagnóstico diferencial de las infecciones gastrointestinales.


Gastrointestinal tract plays an important role in Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) infection, both for its participation in the pathogenesis of the disease as for being affected by different infections at late stages of disease (under 200 CD4/ul). In oropharinx and esophagus, candidiasis is the most common infection. If it is discarded or does not improve with appropriate treatment, endoscopic study and biopsy is the most adequate approach to guide the treatment. In the stomach, infections are not so important and frequently found during endoscopic studies. Small and large bowel can be the target of different focal infections, but diarrhea will be the most common clinical picture. Diarrhea must be assessed with stool leukocyte examination, stool cultures for enteric bacterial pathogens, examination for ova and parasites. Assay for Clostridium difficile toxin is recommended and, in patients under 50 CD4/ul, modified acid-fast stain and special trichrome staining may be useful. In patients with persistent symptoms and negative non-invasive study, endoscopic and hystologic studies must be performed, if not any cause is identified; HIV-associated enteropathy has to be considered. Some etiologies have specific therapy, but antiretroviral therapy is the most effective treatment in most cases. Nonetheless, gastrointestinal side effects of antiretroviral therapy are now part of differential diagnosis of intestinal infections.

ABSTRACT

Probióticos contendo Saccharomyces boulardii têm sido utilizados no tratamento de diarreias de etiologias diversas, incluindo infecciosa e inflamatória. Os mecanismos de ação e efeitos benéficos desses microrganismos no controle do quadro diarreico consistem na redução da hipersecreção de água e eletrólitos, estimulação da atividade de dissacaridases dos enterócitos, produção de aminopeptidases, secreção de IgA, atividade antitoxina, antiinflamatória, metabólica, e antimicrobiana. Tais propriedades biológicas desses microrganismos não patogênicos permitem a sua utilização no tratamento de doenças gastrintestinais endêmicas especialmente em países em desenvolvimento como gastroenterites por rotavírus, diarreia dos viajantes, além de doenças inflamatórias intestinais como a doença de Crohn e colite ulcerativa. Os objetivos dessa revisão consistem em discutir os aspectos significativos e a aplicabilidade do uso de Saccharomyces boulardii no tratamento das diarreias agudas e o racional para a dose de ataque na fase aguda.

ABSTRACT

The available clinical experience with tigecycline is analyzed under the perspective of a systematic review of the literature, so in the already approved indications as in those off label indications reported in the recent literature. The safety profile is checked in the above mentioned clinical trials. The available information allows supporting tigecycline efficiency in the managing of complicated skin and soft tissues infections, complicated intrabdominales infections and community acquired pneumonias. Its usefulness is insinuated in addition in the managing infection by pathogen with high-level of resistance to antimicrobial. Nevertheless it is needed of major evidence in the matter and of a very sensible policy of use in the healthcare institution setting.


Se analiza, bajo la perspectiva de una revisión sistemática de la literatura científica, la experiencia clínica con tigeciclina en las indicaciones ya aprobadas por las entidades reguladoras y en aquellas indicaciones off label reportadas en la literatura médica reciente. Se revisa el perfil de seguridad y tolerabilidad en dichos ensayos clínicos. La información disponible permite avalar su eficacia en el manejo de de infecciones de piel y tejidos blandos complejas, infecciones intrabdominales complicadas y neumonías adquiridas en la comunidad. Se insinúa además su utilidad en el manejo de infecciones por patógenos con alto nivel de resistencia a antimicrobianos. Sin embargo, se requiere de mayor evidencia al respecto y de una muy sensata política de uso en el medio hospitalario.
