Recomendaciones médicas desde atención primaria sobre ejercicio físico en el posparto / Medical recommendations from primary care on physical exercise in the postpartum

Existe evidencia que demuestra los beneficios de la práctica de actividad física (AF)/ejercicio para la madre después del parto. Sin embargo, este periodo posparto (PP) es, a menudo, una oportunidad perdida en el curso de la vida de las mujeres, para comenzar o reanudar la práctica de ejercicio físico, y obtener los grandes beneficios que esto les puede reportar. El objetivo de este artículo fue analizar los beneficios del ejercicio durante el PP; la prescripción de AF; las recomendaciones sobre el momento de reanudar su práctica; las barreras y facilitadores; el ejercicio físico realizado durante la lactancia materna; así como su papel en las enfermedades y molestias más frecuentes en este periodo, teniendo siempre presente que la labor del médico de atención primaria resulta fundamental para motivar y alentar a las mujeres para que lo practiquen después del parto.

There is evidence that demonstrates the benefits of practicing physical activity/exercise for the mother after childbirth. However, this postpartum period (PP) is often a missed opportunity in a lifetime for women to start or resume physical exercise and get the great benefits that it can bring them. The objective of this article was to analyze the benefits of physical exercise during PP; the prescription of physical exercise; recommendations on when to resume your practice; barriers and facilitators; physical exercise during breastfeeding; as well as its role in the most frequent illnesses and discomforts in this period, always keeping in mind that the work of the primary care doctor is essential to motivate and encourage women to perform physical exercise in the PP.

Genitourinary symptoms and sexual function in women with primary ovarian insufficiency.

OBJECTIVE: There are limited studies on urogenital symptoms in women who experience menopause before the age of 40 years due to primary ovarian insufficiency (POI) or bilateral oophorectomy (surgical POI). This study aimed to compare the urogenital symptoms, including sexuality, of women with POI to those without the condition. METHODS: This cross-sectional study conducted was in seven Latin American countries, in which postmenopausal women (with POI and non-POI) were surveyed with a general questionnaire, the Menopause Rating Scale (MRS) and the six-item Female Sexual Function Index (FSFI-6). The association of premature menopause with more urogenital symptoms and lower sexual function was evaluated with logistic regression analysis. RESULTS: Women with POI experience more urogenital symptoms (MRS urogenital score: 3.54 ± 3.16 vs. 3.15 ± 2.89, p < 0.05) and have lower sexual function (total FSFI-6 score: 13.71 ± 7.55 vs. 14.77 ± 7.57 p < 0.05) than women who experience menopause at a normal age range. There were no significant differences in symptoms when comparing women based on the type of POI (idiopathic or surgical). After adjusting for covariates, our logistic regression model determined that POI is associated with more urogenital symptoms (odds ratio [OR]: 1.38, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.06-1.80) and lower sexual function (OR: 1.67, 95% CI 1.25-2.25). CONCLUSION: POI, whether idiopathic or secondary to bilateral oophorectomy, is associated with symptoms that affect vaginal and sexual health.

Myxoid liposarcoma: MRI features with histological correlation.

BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Myxoid liposarcoma is classified in the group of sarcomas with adipose differentiation, which is the second most common group of sarcomas. However, myxoid liposarcoma is not a homogeneous entity, because the behavior and clinical course of these tumours can vary widely. This study aimed to describe the magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) features of myxoid liposarcomas and to determine whether the MRI features are associated with the histologic grade and can differentiate between low-grade and high-grade tumours and thus help in clinical decision making. MATERIAL AND METHODS: We studied 36 patients with myxoid liposarcomas treated at our centre between 2010 and 2018. We analysed clinical variables (age, sex, and tumour site) and MRI features (size, depth, borders, fatty component, myxoid component, non-fatty/non-myxoid component, apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC), and type of enhancement after the administration of intravenous contrast material). We correlated the MRI features with the histologic grade and the percentage of round cells. RESULTS: In our series, patients with myxoid liposarcomas were mainly young adults (median age, 43 years). There were no differences between sexes; 97.2% were located in the lower limbs, 86.1% were deep, and 77.8% had well-defined borders. Of the 23 myxoid liposarcomas that contained no fat, 16 (69.6%) were high grade (p = 0.01). All the tumors with a myxoid component of less than 25% were high grade (p = 0.01); 83.3% of those with a non-fatty/non-myxoid component greater than 50% were high grade (p = 0.03) and 61.5% had more than 5% round cells (p = 0.01). Diffusion sequences were obtained in 14 of the 36 patients; ADC values were high (median, 2 × 10-3 mm2/s), although there were no significant associations between low-grade and high-grade tumours. Contrast-enhanced images were available for 30 (83.3%) patients; 83.3% of the tumours with heterogeneous enhancement were high grade (p = 0.01). CONCLUSIONS: MRI can be useful for differentiating between high- and low-grade myxoid liposarcomas and can help in clinical decision making.

Desprendimiento de retina tras la cirugía de cristalino transparente con lentes intraoculares EDOF y multifocales: una revisión narrativa / Retinal detachment after refractive lens exchange with EDOF and multifocal intraocular lenses: A narrative review

La cirugía de cristalino transparente (RLE) permite corregir las ametropías y la presbicia mediante el reemplazo del cristalino por una lente intraocular (LIO), ya sea monofocal, multifocal (MIOL) o de profundidad de foco extendida (EDOF). El desprendimiento de retina (DR) es uno de los eventos adversos más graves tras la RLE. El objetivo de este estudio fue revisar la evidencia y los resultados clínicos relacionados con el riesgo de DR después de la RLE. Se realizó una búsqueda utilizando PubMed y un procedimiento de bola de nieve para identificar estudios originales y series de casos. Según la bibliografía, los pacientes < 60 años con longitudes axiales > 23 mm tienen el mayor riesgo de DR. Solo nueve artículos reportaron la agudeza visual (AV) tras el DR en RLE, y solo 25% de los ojos mostraron una AV > 20/40. Teniendo en cuenta que la disminución de la AV tras el DR se puede dar con todos los tipos de LIO independientemente de su diseño óptico, la actitud más acertada al realizar una RLE sería una cuidadosa selección del paciente, evitando aquellos ojos con factores de riesgo para DR (AU)

Refractive lens exchange (RLE) allows to correct ametropias and presbyopia by replacing the crystalline lens with a monofocal, extended depth of focus or multifocal intraocular lens (IOL). Retinal detachment (RD) is one of the most serious adverse events after RLE. This study aimed to review the evidence related to the risk of RD after RLE and its clinical outcomes. A search using PubMed and a snowball search approach was conducted to identify articles and case reports. According to the literature, patients <60 years old with axial lengths >23 mm have the higher postoperative risk of RD. Only nine articles reported visual acuity (VA) after RD in RLE, and only 25% of eyes had a VA>20/40. Considering that the decrease in VA might be uniform for all types of IOLs after RD, surgeons should focus on preventing the RD by means of selecting the appropriate patient, rather than choosing on a particular IOL optical design (AU)

Midterm outcomes of patellofemoral arthroplasty / Resultados a medio plazo de la artroplastia femoropatelar

Background: The purpose of this study is the evaluation of the patellofemoral arthroplasty (PFA) survival and clinical and radiological outcomes in our institution. Methods: A retrospective evaluation of our institution patellofemoral arthroplasty cases from 2006 to 2018 was performed; the n sample after applying exclusion and inclusion criteria was 21. All patients excepting one were female with a median age of 63 (20–78). A Kaplan–Meier survival analysis at ten years was calculated. Informed consent was obtained from all patients prior being included in the study. Results: The total revision rate was 6 out of 21 patients (28.57%). The progression of the osteoarthritis in the tibiofemoral compartment was the main cause (50% of revision surgeries). The degree of satisfaction with the PFA was high, with a mean Kujala score of 70.09 and a mean OKS of 35.45 points. The VAS score improved significantly (p<0.001) from a preoperative mean of 8.07 to a postoperative mean of 3.45, with an average improvement of 5 (2–8). Survival at 10 years, with revision for any reason as the endpoint, was 73.5%. A significant positive correlation between BMI and the WOMAC pain (r=0.72, p<0.01) and between BMI and the post-operative VAS (r=0.67, p<0.01) was observed. Conclusions: The results of the case series under consideration suggest that PFA could be a possibility in the joint preservation surgery on the isolated patellofemoral osteoarthritis. BMI >30 seems to be a negative predictor factor in relationship with the postoperative satisfaction, increasing the pain proportionally to this index and requiring more replacement surgery than patients with BMI <30. Meanwhile the radiologic parameters of the implant are not correlated with the clinical or functional outcomes.(AU)

Antecedentes: El propósito de este estudio es la evaluación de la supervivencia de la prótesis femoropatelar y los resultados clínicos y radiológicos en nuestro centro. Métodos: En el presente estudio se realiza una evaluación retrospectiva de los casos de prótesis femoropatelar en nuestro centro entre los años 2006 y 2018. El tamaño muestral, tras aplicar los criterios de inclusión y de exclusión, fue de 21 pacientes. Todos los pacientes excepto uno fueron mujeres, con una media de edad de 63 años (rango 20-78). Se calculó una gráfica de Kaplan-Meier de supervivencia en los primeros 10 años. El consentimiento informado de todos los pacientes fue obtenido previamente a la inclusión en este estudio. Resultados: La tasa de recambio a prótesis total fue 6 de 21 pacientes (28,57%). La progresión de la osteoartrosis en el compartimento tibiofemoral fue la causa principal (50% de las cirugías de revisión). El grado de satisfacción con la PFA fue alto, con una media en la escala de Kujala de 70,09 y una media de OKS de 35,45 puntos. La EVA mejoró significativamente (p<0,001), de una media preoperatoria de 8,07 a una media postoperatoria de 3,45, siendo la media de mejoría de 5 puntos (2 a 8 puntos). La supervivencia a los 10 años, con rescate de la prótesis debido a cualquier causa, fue del 73,5%. Se observó una correlación positiva ente el IMC y la escala WOMAC (r=0,72, p>0,01) y entre el IMC y la EVA postoperatoria (r=0,67 y p<0,01). Conclusiones: Los resultados de esta serie de casos mostraron que la prótesis femoropatelar puede ser una alternativa de tratamiento como cirugía de preservación de la osteoartritis femoropatelar aislada. El IMC>30 parece ser un factor predictor negativo en relación con la satisfacción postoperatoria, incrementando el dolor con una correlación positiva con este índice y requiriendo mayor cirugía de reemplazo que los pacientes con IMC<30. Por otra parte, los parámetros radiológicos relacionados con el implante no están...(AU)

Traditional sexing methods and external egg characteristics combination allow highly accurate early sex determination in an endangered native turkey breed.

Early sex determination methods are not only crucial in the worldwide massive poultry industry, but also for small-holder producers. The profitability of sexing techniques must be accounted for when aiming to boost management, nutrition, and conservation practices in endangered poultry breeds. This becomes pivotal when the local breed dealt with belongs to an understudied species, such as the turkey. So, the main objective of this study is to identify which method combination may report a higher likelihood of successful sex determination in poults across the three-pattern varieties of the Andalusian turkey breed. A total of 84 one to two days old Andalusian turkey poults (42 black, 28 black-roan, and 14 bronze-roan) were evaluated in this study. Sex determination was performed using 15 methods, which included testing external egg metrics and eggshell color, poult morphological appraisal and phaneroptics, and behavioral traits. Possible differences across plumage varieties and the interaction between sex and plumage were observed when external egg quality was measured. Sex determination through behavioral methods in black base feathered (black and black-roan) male sex individuals showed seven times higher sensitivity when compared to the rest of the studied individuals (χ2 = 7.14, df = 1, P < 0.01). In contrast, for the black-roan plumage females, the method based on the color of down feathers was approximately four times more sensitive (χ2 = 3.95, df = 1, P ≤ 0.05). For the bronze-roan pattern, none of the sexing techniques was reported to efficiently predict sex itself. However, the most proper method combination to determine sex, independent of plumage color, was physical external egg characteristics, the color of down feathers, and behavioral approaches ("English method" and "slap technique"). The specificity values were found to be 49.12, 93.33, and 100%, while the sensitivity values were observed to be 74.64, 91.03, and 100%, which translated into accuracy of 63.10, 92.26, and 100% in black, black-roan, and bronze-roan poults, respectively. Our results suggest that the method combination tested in this study could be considered a highly accurate, simple, and affordable alternative for sex determination in turkeys. This could mean a pivotal advance for small producers of turkeys, as early sex detection can help to plan timely conservational management strategies, which is of prominent importance in the context of endangered poultry breeds.

Ejercicio físico y embarazo. Medicina basada en la evidencia (MBE) / Physical exercise and pregnancy. Evidence based medicine (EBM)

La actividad física durante el embarazo promueve la salud materna, fetal y neonatal. Los beneficios para la salud de la actividad física prenatal incluyen un riesgo reducido de aumento de peso gestacional excesivo, diabetes gestacional, preeclampsia, complicaciones del parto, parto prematuro, complicaciones del recién nacido y depresión posparto. Las principales guías de actividad física/ejercicio durante el embarazo recomiendan que todas las mujeres embarazadas sin contraindicaciones médicas u obstétricas se mantengan activas físicamente durante la gestación, con el objetivo de conseguir beneficios para su salud y, al mismo tiempo, reducir la posibilidad de complicaciones durante el embarazo. Analizamos en este artículo lo que la medicina basada en la evidencia (MBE) indica con respecto al ejercicio físico y el embarazo. Para ello, nos basamos en las diferentes Revisiones Cochrane existentes, así como en las principales Guías de práctica clínica y Documentos de consenso (AU)

Dosimetric analysis of graphitic carbon nitride quantum dots exposed to a gamma radiation for a low-dose applications.

In this study, graphitic carbon nitride quantum dots (g-C3N4QDs) were synthesized using different solvents, characterized, and then exposed to a gamma-ray source (137Cs) at irradiation doses of 0.1, 1.48, 2.05 and 3.25 Gy. The intensities of the emission bands progressively were attenuated as the received dose of gamma radiation increased. The changes were quantified with the help of a non-linear fit model. The material showed promising use as a dosimeter for low-dose radiation applications.
