ABSTRACT

Objetivos: evaluar la aplicación de los umbrales de intervención basados en FRAX en mujeres chilenas. Recategorizar elriesgo de fractura osteoporótica para optimizar la selección de mujeres elegibles para intervención.Métodos: seleccionamos de la Encuesta Nacional de Salud (ENS) 2016-2017 (tercera versión) 1782 mujeres de 50 y másaños. Calculamos la probabilidad de fracturas osteoporóticas mayores y fracturas de cadera utilizando el modelo FRAXchileno. Calculamos la proporción de mujeres elegibles para tratamiento y evaluación de la densidad mineral ósea aplicandoumbrales de intervención específicos por edad de 50 a 90 años y un umbral híbrido que combina umbrales dependientes dela edad hasta los 75 años y, a partir de entonces, un umbral fijo con una única probabilidad de fractura hasta los 90 años.Resultados: veintidós mujeres (1,23 %) tenían una fractura previa y eran elegibles para tratamiento por este motivo.Utilizando umbrales específicos por edad, otras 33 mujeres fueron elegibles para tratamiento porque la probabilidad defractura osteoporótica mayor estaba por encima del umbral superior de evaluación. En 1107 (62,12 %) mujeres, se recomienda medir la densidad mineral ósea para poder recalcular el FRAX con la inclusión de la densidad mineral ósea del cuellofemoral. Con el umbral híbrido, otras 44 (3,69 %) mujeres fueron elegibles para el tratamiento y se recomendó la mediciónde la densidad ósea en 1169 mujeres (65,50 %). Si el tratamiento se asignaba solo con FRAX sin densidad mineral ósea,el número de mujeres elegibles para el tratamiento era de 70 (5,15 %) con un umbral de intervención específico para laedad y de 120 (6,72 %) con el umbral híbrido.Conclusiones: el umbral híbrido identifica más mujeres elegibles para tratamiento que los umbrales específicos poredad. La probabilidad promedio de fractura fue mayor con el umbral híbrido. Sobre esta base, nuestra posición es que serecomiende el umbral híbrido.(AU)

ABSTRACT

Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a multifactorial endocrine and metabolic disorder characterized by androgen excess, oligo-anovulatory infertility, polycystic ovaries in ultrasound examination, insulin resistance, and cardiometabolic disorders, with overweight/obesity and visceral adiposity. This review aims to provide an overview of the clinical characteristics and nutritional therapy of PCOS and obesity. The authors analyzed the updated and relevant publications found on PubMed about clinical aspects and nutritional management of PCOS and obesity in studies done in animal and human models. It is crucial an early detection and intervention in PCOS patients to avoid the more challenging control of the onset of more impaired-health conditions that this pathology causes. It is presented evidence that clearly shows the close interaction among oxidative stress, low-grade inflammation, and PCOS. It is also analyzed the relevance of treating metabolic and nutritional correlations of PCOS with a complete therapeutic strategy that includes individualized medication, diet, and healthy habits. By an integral approach and treatment that includes not only medications for PCOS symptoms, supplementation of minerals and vitamins to control PCOS complications but an anti-inflammatory diet, nutritional education, exercise individualized program, lifestyle changes, it is possible to improve insulin resistance, sustained weight loss, ovulation rates, among other goals for the management of this disease. Further studies are needed to clarify mechanisms, beneficial effects, and doses of supplements and precise medication to determine the best combination of diets and exercise programs according to these patients' specific requirements.

ABSTRACT

Introducción: La acromegalia se produce por un adenoma hipofisario somatotropo, que secreta una excesiva producción de GH e IGF1, se relaciona con mayor riesgo de tumores malignos, no guardando asociación con un patrón especifico de presentación y el objetivo de este estudio es analizar la evolución del cáncer papilar de tiroides en acromegalia. Casos: Se trata de tres pacientes diagnosticados de carcinoma papilar de tiroides (CPT) con diferente pronóstico, con características faciales, y sintomatología como cefalea, alteraciones del campo visual, alteraciones menstruales, que condujeron a la realización de estudios bioquímicos, de imagen y al diagnóstico de acromegalia. Evolución: La aparición de cáncer de tiroides varía en el tiempo de evolución de la acromegalia, en dos de los casos lo antecedió y en el tercero se presentó a la par con esta patología. La respuesta al tratamiento en el CPT es indeterminada en la primera paciente y \excelente en los otros casos; en una paciente se alcanzó remisión. Conclusiones: la coexistencia de acromegalia con cáncer tiroides es posible, que los cambios acrales, faciales y la sintomatología expansiva del tumor conducen al diagnóstico de acromegalia y que la identificación de malignidades no guarda relación con la evolución de la enfermedad.


Introduction: Acromegaly is produced by a somatotropic pituitary adenoma, which secretes an excessive production of GH and IGF1, it is related to a higher risk of malignant tumors, not being associated with a specific pattern of presentation and the objective of this study is to analyze the evolution of papillary thyroid cancer in acromegaly. Cases report: These were three patients diagnosed with CPT with different prognosis, with facial characteristics, and symptoms such as headache, visual field alterations, menstrual alterations, which led to biochemical and imaging studies and the diagnosis of acromegaly. Evolution: The appearance of thyroid cancer in the time of evolution of acromegaly is different, in two of the cases it preceded it and in the third it was presented alongside this pathology. The re-sponse to treatment in CPT is indeterminate in the first patient and excellent in the other cases; re-mission was achieved in one patient. Conclusions: It is concluded that the coexistence of acromegaly with thyroid cancer is possible, that the acral and facial changes and the expansive symptomatology of the tumor lead to the diag-nosis of acromegaly and that the identification of malignancies is not related to the evolution of the disease.

ABSTRACT

Las metástasis del carcinoma papilar de tiroides (CPT) generalmente son a nivel locorregional, la diseminación a distancia es poco habitual, sin embargo la invasión de tejidos blandos aunque inusual puede ocurrir, y afecta negativamente la supervivencia. El presente estudio describe una serie de casos de Metástasis Musculares de CPT. Se realizó un estudio transversal de un solo centro que evaluó diez pacientes con CPT con metástasis en músculo. La edad de los pacientes fue entre 46 a 77 años, siendo la edad promedio de 60 años, 7 de los cuales fueron de sexo masculino que corresponde al 70%, todos con antecedente de CPT con respuesta estructural incompleta, además de las metástasis en músculo presentaron afectación de tres o más órganos, con necesidad de varios tratamientos, cada paciente registró entre 1 a 8 cirugías, recibieron entre 100 a 780mCi de I131 (yodo radiactivo), ocho ameritaron radioterapia, todos tuvieron indicación de tratamiento con ITK, sin embargo solo cuatro pacientes tuvieron acceso a dicho medicamento. La mayoría de las metástasis del CPT en músculo fueron diagnosticadas en los estudios de imagen PET/ CT, después de la tiroidectomía el tiempo de su presentación fue muy variable entre 1 a 18 años, el número de músculos comprometidos se reporta entre uno a cuatro, siendo el glúteo (4 casos) el músculo metastásico más frecuente. La presencia de metástasis musculares empeora el pronóstico en nuestra serie de pacientes.


Metastases of thyroid papillary carcinoma (CPT) are generally at the locoregional level, the dissemination from a distance is unusual, however the invasion of soft tissues, although rare can occur, and it negatively affects survival. The present study describes several Muscular Metastases of CPT cases. A transversal study in one only center was performed and assessed ten patients CPT metastases in muscles.The patients age ranged from 46 to 77, being the average age of 60, and 7 of them were male, corresponding to the 70%, everyone with CPT records with an incomplete structural response. Besides muscular metastases they also presented issues with three or more organs, needing many treatments. Each patient registered between 1 to 8 surgeries, they received between 100 to 780mCi of I131. Eight required radiotherapies, everyone required treatment with ITK, however, just four patients had access to that medication. Most of the CPT metastases in muscles were diagnosed in PET/CT image studies, after the thyroidectomy, the time for its presentation was very variable between 1 to 18 years, the number of compromised muscles is reported between one to four, being the buttock (4 cases) the most frequently muscle with metastases. The presence of muscular metastases aggravates the prognosis in our series of patients.

ABSTRACT

Introducción: El cáncer de tiroides es la neoplasia endocrina más frecuenteyel Carcinoma Papilar de tiroides representa el 80% de los casos. Por otro lado, la acromegalia es un trastorno poco diagnosticado con una incidencia estimada anual de 4 casos por millón de personas. Presentamos un caso en el que se presentan las dos entidades al mismo tiempo en un paciente y la discusión del posible nexobio químico. Caso clínico: Mujer de 23 años, con masa nodular pétrea de 3 centímetros, en polo superior de lóbulo derecho de tiroides; sometida a tiroidectomía radical y linfadenectomía cervical bilateral, reporte histopatológico de carcinoma papilar. Evoluciona con cambios visuales en ojo izquierdo, cefalea, amenorrea de 1 año, galactorrea negativa, características morfo-anatómicas de acromegalia, campimetría hemianopsia homónima izquierda. IRM de cerebro lesión sellar y suprasellar hiperintensa en T2 en relación a macroadenoma hipofisario. Bioquímicos: Prolactina 131.20, GH 2.7, ACTH 18.5, IGF1 434, IGFBP 35.8, TTOG para GH que se informa: GH 0 min: 10.7, GH 30 min: 9.24, GH 60 min: 7.9. Evolución: La paciente fue sometida a hipofisectomía transesfenoidal endoscópica parcial. En tratamiento con cabergolina 0.5 mg bisemanal, levotiroxina 225 mcg día y octreótide 20 mg mensual. Conclusión: Se concluye que siendo la acromegalia una enfermedad rara se asocia a cáncer de tiroides, implicando posibles mutaciones en la subunidad α de la proteína G.


Introduction:Thyroid cancer is the most frequent endocrine neoplasia and Papillary thyroid carcinoma represents 80% of cases. On the other hand, acromegaly is a poorly diagnosed disorder with an estimated annual incidence of 4 cases per million people. We present a case in which the two entities occur at the same time in a patient and the discussion of the possible biochemical link. Clinical case: 23-year-old woman, with a 3 cm stone nodular mass in the upper pole of the right thyroid lobe; submitted to radical thyroidectomy and bilateral cervical lymphadenectomy, histopathological report of papillary carcinoma. It evolves with visual changes in the left eye, headache, 1-year amenorrhea, negative galactorrhea, morpho-anatomical characteristics of acromegaly,left homonymous hemianopia campimetry. T2 hyperintense seal and suprasellar lesion brain MRI in relation to pituitary macroadenoma. Biochemicals: Prolactin 131.20, GH 2.7, ACTH 18.5, IGF1 434, IGFBP 35.8, TTOG for reported GH: GH 0 min: 10.7, GH 30 min: 9.24, GH 60 min: 7.9. Evolution: The patient underwent partial endoscopic transsphenoidal hypophysectomy. In treatment with cabergoline 0.5 mg twice weekly, levothyroxine 225 mcg day and octreotide 20 mg monthly. Conclusion: It is concluded that, being acromegaly a rare disease, it is associated with thyroid cancer, involving possible mutations in the α subunit of the G protein.

ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND: The incidence of thyroid cancer is increasing worldwide. This is not accompanied by a corresponding increase in mortality. In contrast, in most populations' thyroid cancer mortality has been decreasing in recent decades, although there are some notable exceptions. Relatively few studies focus on mortality and in Latin America we do not find evidence on the temporal trend of mortality. The study of the epidemiology of the thyroid cancer should be approached with a suitable methodology and with data based on the population. Trends should be expressed as an annual percentage of change and/or average annual rate of change. An appropriate method for analyzing trends in thyroid cancer mortality rates is the Joinpoint regression analysis. Previously published findings are described, and the methodology used is compared. SHORT CONCLUSION: At the global level, Ecuador is one of the countries with the highest incidence rate of thyroid cancer. However, mortality data are scarce and not rigorous. It is important to raise awareness of updated and reliable population-based data on the trend of thyroid cancer mortality in Eccuador.
