RESUMO

COVID-19 was declared a pandemic in March 2020. For case management, Mali has created several treatment sites including the site of the CHU Gabriel Touré. AIMS: The objective of the study was to analyse drug prescriptions for the COVID-19 treatment at the CHU Gabriel Touré. METHODS: We performed a retrospective and descriptive study from April to September 2020. Drug prescriptions and hospital records were used to collect data. Prescriptions and hospital records were used to collect data. RESULTS: A total of 29 patients were hospitalized. The median age was 44 years, 75.90% of patients had at least one pathology associated with COVID-19. The number of prescriptions was 333 comprising 870 lines of prescriptions including 33.21% for standard treatments, and 66.79% for associated pathologies. with 86.23% available at the Hospital Pharmacy. Chloroquine, dosed at 250mg, was administered at 500mg twice a day. The national guidelines from the treatment of COVID-19 recommends 200mg of chloroquine in two doses. Vitamin C was prescribed for all patients although not included in the national guidelines. The class of drugs for the blood and blood-forming organs was the most prescribed (31.49%). The average cost of treatments was 65,602 ± 106,858 FCFA with a maximum of 567,860 FCFA. An evaluation of prescriptions in other treatment sites is necessary.

RESUMO

INTRODUCTION: The diabetic foot wound is a real public health problem, 10% of the reasons for hospitalization. The risk of amputation is 10 to 30 times higher in diabetics than the general population. OBJECTIVE: To study the problem of amputations of the diabetic foot. METHOD: This was a descriptive and cross-sectional study that took place in the Department of Medicine and Endocrinology of the Mali Hospital from July 1st, 2016 to June 30th, 2017. RESULTS: Twenty-five (25) diabetic patients were enrolled in our study. The sex ratio was 0.66. At admission, 100% of our patients had arterial disease, 96% neuropathy, and mixed foot in 80%. Poor glycemic control in 64% of patients; osteitis in 52% of cases; 92% of the patients had a 100% amputation risk according to the University of Texas classification. Nearly half or 46% of patients had amputations in the leg. We recorded 1 death case that is 4%. CONCLUSION: The problem of amputation of diabetic feet is a function of the poor equilibrium and progressive neurological and vascular complications of diabetes.

RESUMO

INTRODUCTION: Migraine is a disabiliting disease accounting for 3%. Its prevalence and impact on the schoolar population deserves to be known. METHODOLOGY: This is a five-month cross-sectional and descriptive study of students under 23 years of age at the high school in Bamako, Mali. The sampling was exhaustive and the population was stratified into school classes. Data related to the impact and disability of migraine were collected from a survey sheet integrating internationally validated items (GRIM, MIDAS, Headache Impact Test). RESULTS: The prevalence of migraine was 21.0%. The sex ratio was 0.58. The average age was 17 years. Headache was pulsatile in 88.3% of cases, exacerbated by physical activities in 5.4%, unilateral topography in 73.2% of students. Phonophobia, photophobia were the most described signs of accompaniment. The intensity of pain was between 9 -10 in 69.5%. School absenteeism was ranged from 1 to 14 days in 91.2% of cases. CONCLUSION: Migraine is a real public health concern in schools in Bamako because of its prevalence and its impact on academic performance.

RESUMO

Reversible cerebral vasoconstriction syndrome (RCVS) is characterized by segmental vasoconstriction and dilatation of intracranial arteries, usually revealed by headaches, which spontaneously resolve in few weeks. We report a patient with RCVS, revealed by thunderclap headaches, involving both internal and external carotid artery (ECA). She received fluoxetin for depression and took a great amount of cannabis in the last months. While angio-MR, transcranial Doppler and CSF analysis were normal, cerebral angiography disclosed stenoses and dilatations of the middle cerebral artery. It also showed an involvement of maxillary arteries. Fluoxetin and cannabis were stopped. After few days, she had no more headaches. At 8th week, angiography was normalized confirming the RCVS. ECA angiogram may help reaching a diagnosis in patients with suspected RCVS when intracerebral abnormalities are minor or absent.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Androgens play a role in the development of both androgenic alopecia, commonly known as male pattern baldness, and prostate cancer. We set out to study if early-onset androgenic alopecia was associated with an increased risk of prostate cancer later in life. PATIENTS AND METHODS: A total of 669 subjects (388 with a history of prostate cancer and 281 without) were enrolled in this study. All subjects were asked to score their balding pattern at ages 20, 30 and 40. Statistical comparison was subsequently done between both groups of patients. RESULTS: Our study revealed that patients with prostate cancer were twice as likely to have androgenic alopecia at age 20 [odds ratio (OR) 2.01, P = 0.0285]. The pattern of hair loss was not a predictive factor for the development of cancer. There was no association between early-onset alopecia and an earlier diagnosis of prostate cancer or with the development of more aggressive tumors. CONCLUSIONS: This study shows an association between early-onset androgenic alopecia and the development of prostate cancer. Whether this population can benefit from routine prostate cancer screening or systematic use of 5-alpha reductase inhibitors as primary prevention remains to be determined.

RESUMO

Breast radiotherapy is a technical challenge in women with pectus excavatum. We aim to assess isocentric lateral decubitus (ILD) technique as a means to irradiate breasts for patients with pectus excavatum. Four women presenting with left-sided breast cancers and found to have pectus excavatum were offered breast-conserving treatments. Post-operative breast radiotherapy was indicated (50 Gy) in two patients, with an additional boost to the tumour bed (16 Gy). Both ILD and supine techniques were simulated. We report the dosimetric comparison of these techniques and the acute skin toxicity of ILD radiotherapy. ILD permitted the same breast dose-homogeneity as the supine technique while decreasing breast thickness by 4.5-6.8 cm. The width of lung and/or heart receiving > 20 Gy ranged between 2.1 cm and 4.3 cm with the supine technique and between 0.5 cm and 1.1 cm with ILD. The estimated percentage of ipsilateral lung receiving > 20 Gy ranged from 21% to 34% with the supine technique and from 0% to 5% with ILD. Acute skin toxicity was scored 1 for all patients at completion of ILD radiotherapy. ILD is an effective breast radiotherapy technique for patients with pectus excavatum that preserves the underlying heart and lung from unnecessary toxicity.

RESUMO

Adjuvant Radiotherapy has been shown to significantly reduce locoregional recurrence but this advantage is associated with increased cardiovascular and pulmonary morbidities. All uncertainties inherent to conformal radiation therapy must be identified in order to increase the precision of treatment; misestimation of these uncertainties increases the potential risk of geometrical misses with, as a consequence, underdosage of the tumor and/or overdosage of healthy tissues. Geometric uncertainties due to respiratory movements or set-up errors are well known. Two strategies have been proposed to limit their effect: quantification of these uncertainties, which are then taken into account in the final calculation of safety margins and/or reduction of respiratory and set-up uncertainties by an efficient immobilization or gating systems. Measured on portal films with two tangential fields, CLD (central lung distance), defined as the distance between the deep field edge and the interior chest wall at the central axis, seems to be the best predictor of set-up uncertainties. Using CLD, estimated mean set-up errors from the literature are 3.8 and 3.2 mm for the systematic and random errors respectively. These depend partly on the type of immobilization device and could be reduced by the use of portal imaging systems. Furthermore, breast is mobile during respiration with motion amplitude as high as 0.8 to 10 mm in the anteroposterior direction. Respiratory gating techniques, currently on evaluation, have the potential to reduce effect of these movements. Each radiotherapy department should perform its own assessments and determine the geometric uncertainties with respect of the equipment used and its particular treatment practices. This paper is a review of the main geometric uncertainties in breast treatment, due to respiration and set-up, and solutions proposed to limit their impact.

RESUMO

Lung cancer is one of the most difficult challenges for radiotherapy. Problems include ballistic targeting compromised by respiratory movements, poor tolerance of neighboring healthy tissues and difficult dosimetry due to the heterogeneous nature of the thoracic tIssues. New perspectives are offered by recent developments allowing a more comprehensive approach to thoracic radiotherapy integrating new advances in imaging techniques, contention, dosimetry, and treatment devices. Two techniques are particularly promising: conformal radiotherapy and respiration-gated radiotherapy. Conformal radiotherapy, a three-dimensional conformal mode of irradiation with or without intensity modulation, is designed to achieve high-precision dose delivery by integrating advanced imaging techniques into the irradiation protocol. These tools are used to optimize irradiation of target Volumes and avoid recurrence while sparing as much as possible healthy tissues. If healthy tissue can be correctly protected, increased doses can be delivered to the target tumor. Respiration-gated techniques offer promising prospects for the treatment of tumors which are displaced by respiratory movements. These techniques allow better adaptation of the irradiation fields to the target tumor and better protection of healthy tissues (lung, heart...). These new approaches are now routine practices in many centers. Early results have been very promising. We describe here the currently available techniques for thoracic radiotherapy.
