Pancreatectomia secundária à aderência após ovário-histerectomia em uma cadela - relato de caso / Pancreatectomy secondary to adherence after ovary-histerectomy in a female dog - a case report / Pancreatectomía secundaria a una adherencia después de ovario histerectomía en una perra ­ relato de caso

O procedimento cirúrgico eletivo realizado com maior frequência na rotina veterinária é a ovário-histerectomia (OVH), com isso há uma alta casuística de complicações pós-operatórias. Entre elas, pode-se citar piometra de coto, ligadura acidental de ureter, síndrome do ovário remanescente, formação de granulomas inflamatórios e aderências a órgãos. Os granulomas de coto ovariano são formados, geralmente por um fio de sutura utilizado inadequadamente, ou a um sítio de infecção. Tais granulomas podem levar à aderências, inclusive a órgãos próximos ao sítio cirúrgico. O presente relato refere-se a uma cadela, que apresentou granulomas ovarianos com aderências no pâncreas e em diversos órgãos após a ovário-histerectomia. Para a solução do caso, foi realizado uma celiotomia exploratória para avaliação da cavidade abdominal, retirada das aderências das estruturas e das formações granulomatosas, sendo necessária a realização de uma pancreatectomia parcial para a retirada completa do granuloma. Após a cirurgia, o paciente desenvolveu quadro de pancreatite, uma complicação muito comum em cirurgias pancreáticas. Ainda assim, o resultado foi considerado satisfatório, pois a pancreatite foi solucionada e os granulomas removidos, e até a última revisão pós-operatória, o paciente encontrava-se bem clinicamente. A OVH é uma das cirurgias mais realizadas na rotina médico veterinária, ainda assim é negligenciada em diversos quesitos. Portanto, há a necessidade dessa técnica cirúrgica e suas possíveis complicações serem realizadas de maneira correta e efetiva.(AU)

The most frequently elective surgical procedure performed in the veterinary routine is the ovary hysterectomy (OVH). As such, there is a high number of post-operative complications, which include stump pyometra, accidental ligation of the ureter, remnant ovary syndrome, formation of inflammatory granulomas, and organ adhesions. Ovarian stump granulomas are usually formed by suture which has been improperly used, or to infection. Such granulomas can lead to adhesions, also affecting organs close to the surgical site. This report refers to a female dog that presented ovarian granulomas with adhesions to the pancreas and to several organs after ovary-hysterectomy. In order to solve the case, an exploratory celiotomy was performed to assess the abdominal cavity, removing the adhesions of the structures and granulomatous formations, which required the performance of a partial pancreatectomy for the thorough removal of the granuloma. After surgery, the patient developed pancreatitis, a very common complication in pancreatic surgery. Even so, the result was considered satisfactory, as the pancreatitis was resolved and the granulomas removed and until the last post-operative review, the patient was clinically well. OVH is one of the most commonly performed surgeries in the veterinary medical routine, yet it is neglected in several aspects. Therefore, there is a need for the surgical technique and its possible complications to be performed correctly and effectively.(AU)

El procedimiento quirúrgico electivo que se realiza con mayor frecuencia en la rutina veterinaria es la ovario-histerectomía (OVH), con que existe un elevado número de complicaciones postoperatorias. Estos incluyen piometra del muñón, ligadura accidental del uréter, síndrome de ovario remanente, formación de granulomas inflamatorios y adherencias a órganos. Los granulomas del muñón ovárico se forman por lo general por una sutura mal utilizada o en un sitio de infección. Dichos granulomas pueden provocar adherencias, incluso a órganos cercanos al sitio quirúrgico. El presente informe se refiere a una perra, quien presentó granulomas ováricos con adherencias en el páncreas y en varios órganos tras ovario histerectomía. Para la solución del caso se realizó una celiotomía exploratoria para acceder la cavidad abdominal, removiendo las adherencias de las estructuras y formaciones granulomatosas, requiriendo la realización de una pancreatectomía parcial para la extirpación completa del granuloma. Después de la cirugía, la paciente desarrolló pancreatitis, una complicación muy común en la cirugía pancreática. Aun así, el resultado se consideró satisfactorio, ya que se resolvió la pancreatitis y se retiraron los granulomas, y hasta la última revisión postoperatoria la paciente se encontraba clínicamente bien. La OVH es una de las cirugías que se realizan con mayor frecuencia en la rutina médica veterinaria, pero se descuida en varios aspectos. Por tanto, existe la necesidad de que esta técnica quirúrgica y sus posibles complicaciones se realicen de forma correcta y eficaz.(AU)

The association between sleep and diabetes outcomes - A systematic review.

AIM: This study aimed to systematically review the prevalence of diagnosed sleep disorders in people with diabetes and to determine the association between sleep disorders and blood glucose levels and diabetes outcomes. METHODS: We conducted a literature search in the following databases: MEDLINE (Pubmed), EMBASE, CINAHL, PsychInfo and Web of Science Citation Index. Meta-analysis (random-effects models) was conducted to estimate the prevalence of sleep disorders in people with diabetes. RESULTS: Forty-one articles measured the prevalence of sleep disorders in adults with diabetes. The estimated pooled prevalence of sleep disorders in diabetes was estimated to be 52% (95% CI 42-63%). The highest pooled prevalence was observed for unspecified sleep apnea (69%; 95% CI: 59-78%), followed by obstructive sleep apnea (60%; 95% CI 39-80%), and restless leg syndrome (27%; 95% CI 20-34%). Eleven studies examined the association between sleep disorders and diabetes control and complications. The presence of comorbid sleep disorders was associated with increased diabetes outcomes. CONCLUSIONS: Diagnosed sleep disorders are highly prevalent in people with diabetes. Sleep disorders are associated with diabetes outcomes, though there was considerable heterogeneity across studies.

Measures of depression and risk of type 2 diabetes: A systematic review and meta-analysis.

BACKGROUND: Depression is associated with an increased risk of type 2 diabetes. This study aimed to determine whether the association between depression and incident type 2 diabetes differs by measure of depression. METHODS: Data sources included MEDLINE, EMBASE, PsycINFO, CINAHL, ProQuest Dissertations & Theses Global, Web of Science Emerging Sources Citation Index and Conference Proceedings Citation Index, Cochrane Library, the University of York Center for Reviews and Dissemination, abstracts from the PsychoSocial Aspects of Diabetes conference. INCLUSION CRITERIA: comparison of participants with and without depression, depression measured at age 18 or older, longitudinal follow-up with an outcome of type 2 diabetes, effect estimate adjusted for important confounders, full-text available in English or French, and study at overall low or moderate risk of bias. Two reviewers extracted data and assessed study quality. RESULTS: Twenty-one studies reporting twenty-five effect estimates were included. Depressive symptom scales, clinical interviews, physician diagnoses, and use of antidepressants were all associated with an increased risk of incident type 2 diabetes. When all measures of depression were combined, the meta-analyzed risk ratio for type 2 diabetes was 1.18 (95% CI 1.12-1.24, I2=45.4%). Results did not provide conclusive evidence that the association between depression and incident diabetes differs by measure of depression. LIMITATIONS: Results showed heterogeneity and evidence of publication bias. CONCLUSIONS: Results suggest that various measures of depression may be used to identify individuals at higher risk of type 2 diabetes.

Functional Imagery Training to reduce snacking: Testing a novel motivational intervention based on Elaborated Intrusion theory.

Functional Imagery Training (FIT) is a new theory-based, manualized intervention that trains positive goal imagery. Multisensory episodic imagery of proximal personal goals is elicited and practised, to sustain motivation and compete with less functional cravings. This study tested the impact of a single session of FIT plus a booster phone call on snacking. In a stepped-wedge design, 45 participants who wanted to lose weight or reduce snacking were randomly assigned to receive a session of FIT immediately or after a 2-week delay. High-sugar and high-fat snacks were recorded using timeline follow back for the previous 3 days, at baseline, 2 and 4 weeks. At 2 weeks, snacking was lower in the immediate group than in the delayed group, and the reduction after FIT was replicated in the delayed group between 2 and 4 weeks. Frequencies of motivational thoughts about snack reduction rose following FIT for both groups, and this change correlated with reductions in snacking and weight loss. By showing that FIT can support change in eating behaviours, these findings show its potential as a motivational intervention for weight management.
