RESUMO
Introducción: La colaboración entre Atención Primaria (AP) y Gastroenterología en la enfermedad inflamatoria intestinal (EII) es crucial para ofrecer una atención médica de alta calidad. El objetivo del presente estudio es analizar, en el ámbito nacional, la relación entre AP y los gastroenterólogos con el objetivo de conocer los aspectos de mejora en el manejo de pacientes con EII y cómo poder implementarlos, para así desarrollar posteriormente propuestas y proyectos concretos entre SEMERGEN y GETECCU. Metodología: Estudio descriptivo, observacional y transversal, realizado mediante cuestionario online anónimo entre octubre de 2021 y marzo de 2022. Resultados: Se recopilaron un total de 157 encuestas de Gastroenterología y 222 de AP. El 43,8% y el 34,3% de los gastroenterólogos y médicos de familia, respectivamente, consideraron tener una buena relación. El grado de conocimiento de los médicos de familia sobre diferentes aspectos de la EII (puntuado sobre 10) fue: aspectos clínicos 6,67±1,48, diagnósticos 6,47±1,46, terapéuticos 5,63±1,51, de seguimiento 5,53±1,68 y complicaciones 6,05±1,54. La percepción del apoyo y soporte entre ambas unidades no superó el 4,5 en una escala de 0 a 10 en ninguna de las encuestas. Las propuestas de mejora más votadas fueron: mayor coordinación entre especialistas, implantación de unidades de EII y colaboración de enfermería. Conclusión: Existen deficiencias en la relación entre AP y Gastroenterología con especial dedicación a la EII que requiere de los esfuerzos de las sociedades científicas que los representan para una mayor coordinación, con elaboración de protocolos conjuntos y medios de comunicación ágiles, rápidos y efectivos.

Introduction: Collaboration between Primary Care (PC) and Gastroenterology in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is crucial to provide high-quality healthcare. The aim of this study is to analyse the relationship between PC and gastroenterologists at a national level in order to identify areas for improvement in the management of patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and how to address them, with the aim of subsequently developing concrete proposals and projects between SEMERGEN and GETECCU. Methods: Descriptive, observational, cross-sectional study, was carried out using an anonymous online questionnaire between October 2021 and March 2022. Results: A total of 157 surveys from Gastroenterology and 222 from PC were collected. 43.8% and 34.3% of gastroenterologists and family practitioners, respectively, considered that there was a good relationship between the units. The level of knowledge from family practitioners regarding different aspects of IBD out of 10 was: clinical 6.67±1.48, diagnosis 6.47±1.46, treatment 5.63±1.51, follow-up 5.53±1.68 and complications 6.05±1.54. The perception of support between both units did not exceed 4.5 on a scale from 0 to 10 in either of the surveys. The most highly voted improvement proposals were better coordination between the units, implementation of IBD units, and nursing collaboration. Conclusion: There are deficiencies in the relationship between PC and Gastroenterology with special dedication to IBD that require the efforts of the scientific societies that represent them for greater coordination with the development of joint protocols and agile, fast, and effective communication channels.

INTRODUCCIÓN. La necrosis esofágica aguda es un síndrome raro que se caracteriza endoscópicamente por una apariencia negra circunferencial irregular o difusa de la mucosa esofágica intratorácica, la afectación es generalmente del esófago distal y la transición abrupta de mucosa normal en la unión gastroesofágica, con extensión proximal variable. CASOS. Se presentan dos casos con diferentes comorbiliades, presentación de signos y síntomas, antecedentes y tratamiento, teniendo en común el diagnóstico a través de endoscopía digestiva alta. RESULTADOS. Caso clínico 1: tratamiento clínico basado en hidratación, suspensión de vía oral, omeprazol intravenoso y sucralfato; mala evolución clínica caracterizada por: disfagia, intolerancia oral y recurrencia del sangrado digestivo alto, se realiza colocación de gastrostomía endoscópica. Caso clínico 2: esófago con mucosa con fibrina y parches de necrosis extensa, se realiza compensación tanto de foco infeccioso pulmonar como hidratación y nutrición, en estudios complementarios se observa masa colónica, con estudio histopatológico confirmatorio de adenocarcinoma de colon en estado avanzado. DISCUSIÓN. La esofagitis necrotizante aguda es una entidad inusual, de baja prevalencia e incidencia, asociada con estados de hipoperfusión sistémica y múltiples comorbilidades que favorezcan un sustrato isquémico. Al revisar los reportes de casos que hay en la literatura médica, los casos que reportamos se correlaciona con las características clínicas, epidemiológicas, endoscópicas y factores de riesgo causales de la enfermedad. La presentación clínica más frecuente es el sangrado digestivo alto, que se debe correlacionar con el hallazgo endoscópico clásico. Nuestro primer caso reportado termina con la colocación de una gastrostomía para poder alimentarse. CONCLUSIÓN. El pronóstico de la necrosis esofágica aguda es malo y se requiere un alto índice de sospecha clínica y conocimiento de esta infrecuente patología para un diagnóstico temprano y un manejo oportuno. Se requiere una evaluación por endoscopia digestiva alta. Es una causa de sangrado gastrointestinal que conlleva tasas altas de mortalidad, principalmente en adultos mayores frágiles. El reconocimiento temprano y la reanimación agresiva son los principios fundamentales para un mejor resultado de la enfermedad.
INTRODUCTION. Acute esophageal necrosis is a rare syndrome that is characterized endoscopically by an irregular or diffuse circumferential black appearance of the intrathoracic esophageal mucosa, the involvement is generally of the distal esophagus and the abrupt transition of normal mucosa at the gastroesophageal junction, with variable proximal extension. CASES. Two cases are presented with different comorbidities, presentation of signs and symptoms, history and treatment, having in common the diagnosis through upper gastrointestinal endoscopy. RESULTS. Clinical case 1: clinical treatment based on hydration, oral suspension, intravenous omeprazole and sucralfate; poor clinical evolution characterized by: dysphagia, oral intolerance and recurrence of upper digestive bleeding, endoscopic gastrostomy placement was performed. Clinical case 2: esophagus with mucosa with fibrin and patches of extensive necrosis, compensation of both the pulmonary infectious focus and hydration and nutrition is performed, in complementary studies a colonic mass is observed, with a confirmatory histopathological study of colon adenocarcinoma in an advanced state. DISCUSSION. Acute necrotizing esophagitis is an unusual entity, with low prevalence and incidence, associated with states of systemic hypoperfusion and multiple comorbidities that favor an ischemic substrate. When reviewing the case reports in the medical literature, the cases we report correlate with the clinical, epidemiological, endoscopic characteristics and causal risk factors of the disease. The most common clinical presentation is upper gastrointestinal bleeding, which must be correlated with the classic endoscopic finding. Our first reported case ends with the placement of a gastrostomy to be able to feed. CONCLUSION. The prognosis of acute esophageal necrosis is poor and a high index of clinical suspicion and knowledge of this rare pathology is required for early diagnosis and timely management. Evaluation by upper gastrointestinal endoscopy is required. It is a cause of gastrointestinal bleeding that carries high mortality rates, mainly in frail older adults. Early recognition and aggressive resuscitation are the fundamental principles for a better outcome of the disease.

ABSTRACT BACKGROUND: Liver transplantation (LT) is the only treatment that can provide long-term survival for patients with acute-on-chronic liver failure (ACLF). Although several studies identify prognostic factors for patients in ACLF who do not undergo LT, there is scarce literature about prognostic factors after LT in this population. AIM: Evaluate outcomes of ACLF patients undergoing LT, studying prognostic factors related to 1-year and 90 days post-LT. METHODS: Patients with ACLF undergoing LT between January 2005 and April 2021 were included. Variables such as chronic liver failure consortium (CLIF-C) ACLF values and ACLF grades were compared with the outcomes. RESULTS: The ACLF survival of patients (n=25) post-LT at 90 days, 1, 3, 5 and 7 years, was 80, 76, 59.5, 54.1 and 54.1% versus 86.3, 79.4, 72.6, 66.5 and 61.2% for patients undergoing LT for other indications (n=344), (p=0.525). There was no statistical difference for mortality at 01 year and 90 days among patients with the three ACLF grades (ACLF-1 vs. ACLF-2 vs. ACLF-3) undergoing LT, as well as when compared to non-ACLF patients. CLIF-C ACLF score was not related to death outcomes. None of the other studied variables proved to be independent predictors of mortality at 90 days, 1 year, or overall. CONCLUSIONS: LT conferred long-term survival to most transplant patients. None of the studied variables proved to be a prognostic factor associated with post-LT survival outcomes for patients with ACLF. Additional studies are recommended to clarify the prognostic factors of post-LT survival in patients with ACLF.
RESUMO RACIONAL: O transplante hepático (TH) é o único tratamento a proporcionar sobrevida a longo prazo para pacientes com "acute-on-chronic liver failure" (ACLF). Vários estudos identificaram fatores prognósticos para pacientes em ACLF que não realizam TH, porém há poucos dados na literatura sobre fatores prognósticos nessa população transplantada. OBJETIVOS: Avaliar desfechos de pacientes ACLF submetidos a TH, e seus preditores de mortalidade. MÉTODOS: Foram avaliados pacientes em ACLF submetidos a TH entre janeiro de 2005 e abril de 2021. Variáveis como valores CLIF-C ACLF e pontuação no ACLF foram comparadas com os desfechos. RESULTADOS: A sobrevida de ACLF pós TH de pacientes (n=25) em 90 dias, 1, 3, 5 e 7 anos, foi de 80, 76, 59,5, 54,1 e 54,1% versus 86,3, 79,4, 72,6, 66,5 e 61,2% para pacientes submetidos a TH por outras indicações (n=344), (p=0,525). Não houve diferença estatística para mortalidade em 01 ano e 90 dias entre pacientes com os três graus de ACLF (ACLF-1 vs. ACLF-2 vs. ACLF-3), bem como quando comparados a pacientes não ACLF. O escore "chronic liver failure consortium" (CLIF-C) ACLF não se correlacionou com desfechos de óbito. Nenhuma das outras variáveis estudadas mostrou-se preditora independente de mortalidade em 90 dias, após um ano ou global. CONCLUSÕES: TH conferiu sobrevida em longo prazo à maioria dos pacientes transplantados, semelhante aos pacientes submetidos à TH por outras indicações. Nenhuma das variáveis estudadas mostrou-se fator prognóstico associado a desfechos de sobrevida pós-TH para pacientes com ACLF. Estudos adicionais são necessários para estabelecer fatores prognósticos pós-TH em pacientes com ACLF.

Abstract Objective: To identify oral characteristics found in children with liver disease in programming for liver transplantation. Data source: The methodology was written according to PRISMA-ScR. We adopted the methodological framework and recommendations for this type of review by Arksey and O'Malley and the Joanna Briggs Institute. The protocol was registered in the Open Science Framework (https://doi.org/10.17605/OSF.IO/QCU4W). A systematic search (Medline/PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, and ProQuest) was conducted to identify studies that met the inclusion criteria: systematic reviews; prospective clinical trials (parallel or crossover group designs); observational studies (cohort, case-control, and cross-sectional studies); clinical case series; and case reports evaluating children with liver disease in preparation for transplantation. The last search was conducted in July 2021, and no restrictions were imposed as to language or year of publication. Studies presenting mixed data with post-transplant evaluation, and studies evaluating not only liver transplantation but also other solid organs were excluded. Screening, inclusion, and data extraction were performed by two reviewers independently. A narrative synthesis was conducted to describe the findings of the study. Data synthesis: The bibliographic search identified 830 references. A total of 21 articles were read in their entirety after the inclusion criteria assessment. Finally, after evaluating the exclusion criteria, only 3 studies were considered for the qualitative analysis. Conclusions: Children with liver disease in preparation for transplantation may present enamel defects, tooth pigmentation, caries, gingivitis, and opportunistic infections such as candidiasis.

Background: latest studies have shown that vitamin D deficiency is related to the occurrence of irritable bowel disease (IBS), and taking vitamin D as a supplement can alleviate the symptoms of irritable bowel disease. However, clinical treatment of irritable bowel disease with vitamin D is controversial. Objective: we conducted a meta-analysis of all clinical trials to evaluate the associations between vitamin D and irritable bowel disease. Methods: we screened all randomized controlled trials that were published before December 20, 2021 from the following databases: Medline, Web of Science, China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), Cochrane Central, and Clinical Trial. We used RevMan 5.4.1 and Stata 16.1 to analyze the relevant data. The standardized mean difference (SMD) with 95 % confidence interval (95 % CI) was used to report effect sizes. Serum vitamin D concentration, risk of vitamin D deficiency among patients with IBS, Symptom Severity Score (SSS), and Quality of Life (QoL) score are the main endpoint outcomes in this study. Results: data from twelve clinical trials with 1331 IBS patients were included. Patients with IBS have relatively low vitamin D levels in their serum. Vitamin D supplementation improves the Quality of Life (QoL) score but has no significant effect on the Symptom Severity Score (SSS). Conclusions: vitamin D deficiency is associated with the pathogenesis of irritable bowel syndrome. Serum vitamin D levels decreased in patients with irritable bowel syndrome, and vitamin D supplementation could improve patient quality of life. (AU)
Antecedentes: los últimos estudios han demostrado que la deficiencia de vitamina D está relacionada con la aparición de la enfermedad del intestino irritable (SII) y que tomar vitamina D como suplemento puede aliviar los síntomas de la enfermedad del intestino irritable. Sin embargo, el tratamiento clínico de la enfermedad del intestino irritable con vitamina D es controvertido. Objetivo: se realizó un metaanálisis de todos los ensayos clínicos para evaluar las asociaciones entre la vitamina D y la enfermedad del intestino irritable. Métodos: se examinaron todos los ensayos controlados aleatorios que se publicaron antes del 20 de diciembre de 2021 en las siguientes bases de datos: Medline, Web of Science, China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), Cochrane Central y Clinical Trial. Se utilizaron RevMan 5.4.1 y Stata 16.1 para analizar los datos relevantes. Se utilizó la diferencia de medias estandarizada (DME) con intervalo de confianza del 95 % (IC 95 %) para presentar los tamaños del efecto. La concentración sérica de vitamina D, el riesgo de deficiencia de vitamina D entre los pacientes con SII, la puntuación de gravedad de los síntomas (SSS) y la puntuación de calidad de vida (CdV) son los principales criterios de valoración de este estudio. Resultados: se incluyeron datos de doce ensayos clínicos en 1331 pacientes con SII. los pacientes con SII tienen niveles relativamente bajos de vitamina D en el suero. La suplementación con vitamina D mejora la puntuación de calidad de vida (CdV), pero no tiene un efecto significativo en la puntuación de gravedad de los síntomas (SSS). Conclusiones: la deficiencia de vitamina D se asocia con la patogénesis del síndrome del intestino irritable. Los niveles séricos de vitamina D disminuyeron en pacientes con síndrome del intestino irritable, y la suplementación con vitamina D podría mejorar la calidad de vida de los pacientes. (AU)

Los objetivos fueron identificar la presencia de ansiedad y depresión en pacientes que acuden a consultorio externo de gastroenterología en la ciudad de Lima y describir los antecedentes gastroenterológicos y síntomas más relacionados a estos trastornos. La muestra estuvo conformada por 200 pacientes adultos pertenecientes a 32 distritos de Lima Metropolitana, atendidos por la especialidad de Gastroenterología en la modalidad de consultorio externo durante marzo a octubre del 2021, a quienes se les aplicó la Escala de Ansiedad y Depresión Hospitalaria (HADS) adaptada por Vilela. El estudio fue descriptivo-correlacional y la muestra prospectiva. Alrededor de 1 de cada 2 pacientes (49%, n=98) presentó ansiedad, 1 de cada 5 (19%, n=38) depresión y 16,5% (n=33) concomitantemente ambos trastornos. Los antecedentes gastroenterológicos de Dispepsia (v=0,216) y Síndrome de Intestino Irritable (v=0,188) mostraron asociación estadística para ambas variables. Diarrea (v=0,214) y dolor torácico (v=0,215) fueron síntomas asociados a ansiedad, así como dolor torácico, con depresión. Los trastornos de ansiedad y depresión tienen alta prevalencia en la población que acude a consulta externa, sugerimos explorar dichas variables y ofrecer un abordaje multidisciplinario a los pacientes atendidos por esta modalidad.
The objectives were to identify anxiety and depression in patients attending a gastroenterology outpatient clinic in the city of Lima, and to describe the gastroenterological history and symptoms most related to these disorders. 200 adult patients belonging to 32 districts of Metropolitan Lima attended from March to October 2021 were enrolled; the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) adapted by Vilela was applied. The study was descriptive-correlational and prospective sample. 49% (n=98) reported anxiety, 19% (n=38) depression and 16.5% (n=33) both disorders concomitantly. Dyspepsia (v=0.216) and Irritable Bowel Syndrome (v=0.188) showed a statistical association for both variables. Diarrhea (v=0.214) and chest pain (v=0.215) were symptoms associated with anxiety, as well as chest pain with depression. Anxiety and depression are highly prevalent among patients that come to outpatient office visits, we suggest exploring these variables and offering a multidisciplinary approach to patients treated by this modality.
RESUMO
ABSTRACT Background Hepatorenal syndrome (HRS) is the most severe form of acute kidney injury in patients with advanced cirrhosis, and it is associated with high mortality. It is usually diagnosed according to criteria defined by the International Ascites Club. Currently, the most frequently indicated pharmacological therapy for the treatment of HRS is a combination of splanchnic vasoconstrictors (terlipressin or norepinephrine) in combination with albumin. With the progressive increase in healthcare spending, it is important to conduct a cost-effectiveness analysis of pharmacological treatment in patients who are diagnosed with HRS. Objective: To perform a cost-effectiveness assessment for the use of terlipressin in combination with albumin to treat HRS in patients with cirrhosis. Methods: Economic evaluation of cost-effectiveness based on secondary data from studies showed the efficacy of terlipressin therapy compared with norepinephrine combined with albumin or albumin alone. The cost-effectiveness analysis was calculated using an incremental cost-effectiveness ratio (ICER), and a sensitivity analysis was developed by varying the values of therapies and probabilities. The Brazilian real was the currency used in the analysis, and the results were converted to US dollars. Results: After selection, eligibility, and evaluation of the quality of publications, the results demonstrated that administration of terlipressin or norepinephrine in combination with albumin in patients diagnosed with HRS type 1 was efficacious. The cost of treatment with terlipressin in combination with albumin was USD $1,644.06, administration of albumin alone was USD $912.02, and norepinephrine plus albumin was USD $2,310.78. Considering that the combination therapies demonstrated effectiveness, the incremental cost of terlipressin and norepinephrine in combination with albumin was USD $666.73, and an effectiveness of 0.570 was found for terlipressin in combination with albumin and 0.200 for norepinephrine in combination with albumin. The incremental effectiveness was 0.370, and the ICER was USD $1,801.97. Thus, the parameters of increasing cost per therapy and ICER indicated that the combined therapy of terlipressin plus albumin was cost effective compared to albumin alone or norepinephrine plus albumin in a public single-payer healthcare system. Conclusion: A cost-effectiveness analysis showed that terlipressin in combination with albumin when administered concomitantly to patients who were diagnosed with type 1 HRS is cost-effective compared to norepinephrine in combination with albumin administered in a controlled environment.
RESUMO Contexto: A Síndrome Hepatorrenal (SHR) é a forma mais grave de lesão renal aguda em pacientes com cirrose avançada, estando diretamente associada a alta taxa de mortalidade. Normalmente é diagnosticada seguindo critérios definidos pela International Ascites Club (IAC). Atualmente, as terapias farmacológicas mais indicadas no tratamento da SHR são a combinação de vasoconstritores esplâncnicos (terlipressina ou norepinefrina) associados à albumina. Com o aumento progressivo dos gastos em saúde, torna-se relevante realizar uma análise de custo-efetividade do tratamento farmacológico em pacientes com diagnóstico de SHR. Objetivo: Realizar avaliação de custo-efetividade do uso da terlipressina associada à albumina no tratamento da SHR em pacientes com cirrose. Métodos: Avaliação econômica de custo-efetividade, com base em dados secundários de estudos publicados com resultado da eficácia da terapia com terlipressina, em comparação com norepinefrina combinada com albumina ou apenas albumina. A análise de custo-efetividade foi calculada usando a razão de custo-efetividade incremental (RCEI) e uma análise de sensibilidade foi desenvolvida variando os valores das terapias e probabilidades. O real foi a moeda utilizada na análise. Resultados: Após a seleção, elegibilidade e avaliação da qualidade das publicações, os resultados demonstraram que a administração da associação de terlipressina ou norepinefrina com albumina em pacientes diagnosticados com SHR tipo 1 possui eficácia comprovada. Os custos do tratamento com a terapia combinada de terlipressina com albumina foram de USD $1,644.06, administração de somente albumina USD $912.02 e norepinefrina mais albumina USD $2,310.78. Considerando as terapias combinadas com efetividade terapêutica comprovada, isto é, terlipressina e norepinefrina associada a albumina, o custo incremental foi de USD $666.73 e efetividade de 0,570 para o grupo da terlipressina associada a albumina e de 0,200 para o grupo da norepinefrina associada a albumina. A efetividade incremental foi de 0,370 e o valor da RCEI foi de USD $1,801.97. Assim, os fatores de incremento do custo por terapia e razão de custo-efetividade incremental definem que a terapia combinada de terlipressina mais albumina é custo efetiva quando comparada a administração de somente albumina ou norepinefrina no cenário do sistema único de saúde. Conclusão: O estudo demonstrou por meio de uma análise de custo-efetividade que a terlipressina associada à albumina quando administrada concomitantemente a pacientes com diagnóstico de SHR tipo 1 é custo-efetiva quando comparada à albumina sozinha e com norepinefrina associada à albumina administrada em um ambiente controlado.
RESUMO
Introduction: Background: latest studies have shown that vitamin D deficiency is related to the occurrence of irritable bowel disease (IBS), and taking vitamin D as a supplement can alleviate the symptoms of irritable bowel disease. However, clinical treatment of irritable bowel disease with vitamin D is controversial. Objective: we conducted a meta-analysis of all clinical trials to evaluate the associations between vitamin D and irritable bowel disease. Methods: we screened all randomized controlled trials that were published before December 20, 2021 from the following databases: Medline, Web of Science, China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), Cochrane Central, and Clinical Trial. We used RevMan 5.4.1 and Stata 16.1 to analyze the relevant data. The standardized mean difference (SMD) with 95 % confidence interval (95 % CI) was used to report effect sizes. Serum vitamin D concentration, risk of vitamin D deficiency among patients with IBS, Symptom Severity Score (SSS), and Quality of Life (QoL) score are the main endpoint outcomes in this study. Results: data from twelve clinical trials with 1331 IBS patients were included. Patients with IBS have relatively low vitamin D levels in their serum. Vitamin D supplementation improves the Quality of Life (QoL) score but has no significant effect on the Symptom Severity Score (SSS). Conclusions: vitamin D deficiency is associated with the pathogenesis of irritable bowel syndrome. Serum vitamin D levels decreased in patients with irritable bowel syndrome, and vitamin D supplementation could improve patient quality of life.
Introducción: Antecedentes: los últimos estudios han demostrado que la deficiencia de vitamina D está relacionada con la aparición de la enfermedad del intestino irritable (SII) y que tomar vitamina D como suplemento puede aliviar los síntomas de la enfermedad del intestino irritable. Sin embargo, el tratamiento clínico de la enfermedad del intestino irritable con vitamina D es controvertido. Objetivo: se realizó un metanálisis de todos los ensayos clínicos para evaluar las asociaciones entre la vitamina D y la enfermedad del intestino irritable. Métodos: se examinaron todos los ensayos controlados aleatorios que se publicaron antes del 20 de diciembre de 2021 en las siguientes bases de datos: Medline, Web of Science, China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), Cochrane Central y Clinical Trial. Se utilizaron RevMan 5.4.1 y Stata 16.1 para analizar los datos relevantes. Se utilizó la diferencia de medias estandarizada (DME) con intervalo de confianza del 95 % (IC 95 %) para presentar los tamaños del efecto. La concentración sérica de vitamina D, el riesgo de deficiencia de vitamina D entre los pacientes con SII, la puntuación de gravedad de los síntomas (SSS) y la puntuación de calidad de vida (CdV) son los principales criterios de valoración de este estudio. Resultados: se incluyeron datos de doce ensayos clínicos en 1331 pacientes con SII. los pacientes con SII tienen niveles relativamente bajos de vitamina D en el suero. La suplementación con vitamina D mejora la puntuación de calidad de vida (CdV), pero no tiene un efecto significativo en la puntuación de gravedad de los síntomas (SSS). Conclusiones: la deficiencia de vitamina D se asocia con la patogénesis del síndrome del intestino irritable. Los niveles séricos de vitamina D disminuyeron en pacientes con síndrome del intestino irritable, y la suplementación con vitamina D podría mejorar la calidad de vida de los pacientes.

Introducción: En la formación del residente de Gastroenterología, la función asistencial emerge como una de las más esenciales porque prepara al futuro especialista para aplicar los principios básicos fundamentales en la práctica de la endoscopia diagnóstico-terapéutica, con vistas a garantizar la calidad de su desempeño médico en la atención a pacientes con neoplasias digestivas. Sin embargo, la relación entre la práctica y la praxis asistencial aún necesita un redimensionamiento epistemológico para favorecer la transformación del quehacer profesional de estos especialistas. Desarrollo: Se realizó un análisis epistemológico de la relación entre práctica, praxis y desempeño asistencial en la formación del residente de Gastroenterología, lo que permite connotarla a partir de un nivel de interpretación más esencial, de manera que trascienda la visión fragmentada e instrumental de su enfoque teórico hacia uno nuevo totalizador que sistematiza su esencia formativa desde una intervención endoscópica holística, que integra la prevención, el diagnóstico y la terapéutica en la atención a pacientes con neoplasias digestivas. Conclusiones: La reinterpretación epistemológica de esta investigación consolidó la dialéctica entre la práctica y la praxis asistencial en un estadio epistemológico superior, lo que permite sustentar un nuevo tratamiento teórico de esta relación a partir del vínculo entre la práctica integral de procedimientos preventivos endoscópicos del aparato digestivo y la praxis interventiva endoscópica preventivo-curativa a fin de perfeccionar la formación de este especialista.
Introduction: In the training of the Gastroenterology resident, the assistance function emerges as one of the most essential because it prepares the future specialist to apply the fundamental basic principles in the practice of the diagnostic-therapeutic endoscopy, aimed at guaranteeing the quality of its medical performance in care of patients with digestive neoplasms. However, the relationship between the practice and the assistance practice still needs an epistemologic resizing to favor the transformation of the professional performance of these specialists. Development: An epistemologic analysis of the relationship between practice, and assistance performance in the training of the Gastroenterology resident was carried out, what allows to connote it starting from a more essential interpretation level, so that transcends the fragmented and instrumental vision of its theoretical approach toward a new totalizer approach that systematizes its training essence from an holistic endoscopic intervention that integrates prevention, diagnosis and therapeutic in the care of patients with digestive neoplasms. Conclusions: The epistemologic reinterpretation of this investigation consolidated the dialectics between the practice and the assistance practice in a superior epistemologic stage, what allows to sustain a new theoretical treatment of this relationship starting from the link between the integral practice of endoscopic-digestive preventive procedures and the preventive-curative endoscopic interventive practice in order to perfect this specialist training.

ABSTRACT - BACKGROUND: Dysphagia can lead to aspiration pneumonia, impacting the nutritional status and quality of life of the patient. The videofluoroscopy is highlighted for allowing both a real-time evaluation and the recording of the images for later review and analysis. AIM: This study aimed to describe the characteristics of the population referred for videofluoroscopy and its value as an investigation method. METHODS: A descriptive and retrospective study was conducted. Exams were analyzed in lateral and anteroposterior views and reviewed using the frame-by-frame analysis software. The variables analyzed were an indication of the exam, previous diseases, dynamics of the oral and pharyngeal phases, and the degree of penetration/aspiration. RESULTS: A total of 141 exams were analyzed. The study population had a median age of 66.24±17.78 years. For the indication of the exam, the investigation of dysphagia was highlighted (n=87, 61.7%) and for previous conditions, diverticulum (n=13, 9.2%), pharyngeal bar (n=12, 8.51%), and stroke and Parkinson's disease (n=9, 6.4%) were highlighted. In the oral phase, 45 (31.9%) patients had a premature loss, and 108 (76.6%) patients had normal transit time. However, 100 (70.9%) had inadequate ejection. In the pharyngeal phase, 119 (84.4%) had efficient laryngeal displacement and 107 (75.9%) had an adequate opening of the upper esophageal sphincter. The beginning of the pharyngeal phase was classified as inadequate in 131 (92.9%) patients, and 80 (56.74%) had pharyngeal residue. Notably, 100 (70.9%) patients had grade 1 on the penetration/aspiration scale. CONCLUSION: Despite the didactic division of phases, swallowing is complex and has transition stages. Videofluoroscopy is the only method for evaluating all phases of swallowing and its events.
RESUMO - RACIONAL: a disfagia pode levar ao desenvolvimento de pneumonia broncoaspirativa, impactando o estado nutricional e a qualidade de vida do paciente. A videofluoroscopia se destaca por permitir tanto a avaliação em tempo real como o registro das imagens para revisão e análise posterior. OBJETIVO: Descrever as características da população encaminhada para videofluoroscopia e seu valor como método de investigação. MÉTODOS: estudo descritivo e retrospectivo. Exames analisados em visão lateral e ântero-posterior e revisados com software de análise quadro a quadro. Variáveis analisadas: indicação do exame, doença base, dinâmica da fase oral e da fase faríngea e a grau de penetração/aspiração. RESULTADOS: foram analisados 141 exames. A população estudada tinha em média 66,24 ± 17,78 anos. Para indicação do exame, destacou-se: investigação de disfagia (n=87, 61,7%) e para condição prévia: divertículo (n=13, 9,2%), barra faríngea (n=12, 8,51%), acidente vascular e doença de Parkinson (n=9, 6,4%). Na fase oral, 45 pacientes (31,9%) apresentaram escape prematuro. Tempo de trânsito normal foi registrado em 108 (76,6%) pacientes. Porém, 100 pacientes (70,9%) apresentaram ejeção inadequada. Na fase faríngea, 119 (84,4%) apresentaram deslocamento laríngeo eficiente e 107 (75,9%) abertura adequada do esfíncter esofágico superior. O início da fase faríngea foi classificado como inadequado em 131 pacientes (92,9%) e 80 (56.74%) apresentaram resíduo faríngeo. 100 pacientes (70,9%) apresentaram grau 1 na escala de penetração/aspiração CONCLUSÃO: apesar da divisão didática das fases, a deglutição é uma função complexa e possui etapas de transição. A videofluoroscopia é o único método para avaliar todas as fases da deglutição e seus eventos.

A esofagite eosinofílica (EoE) é uma doença inflamatória, crônica e recidivante do esôfago, caracterizada por inflamação com predomínio de eosinófilos e sintomas de disfunção esofágica. A doença, que representa a principal causa de disfagia crônica em crianças, jovens e adultos, compartilha intrínseca correlação com alergias, tanto em sua fisiopatologia, quanto em dados epidemiológicos e, recentemente, foi considerada uma manifestação tardia da marcha atópica em alguns indivíduos. O presente trabalho objetiva ampliar o conhecimento acerca da doença, visto que a EoE é uma patologia relativamente nova na história da medicina, e seu diagnóstico depende de elevada suspeição clínica. Além disso, por ser uma entidade com elevado potencial de causar impacto na qualidade de vida e repercussões fisiológicas, psicológicas e sociais para os pacientes, a suspeição e reconhecimento precoce da doença é essencial para que se institua a terapêutica adequada e obtenha-se controle sobre a progressão da doença.
Eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) is an inflammatory, chronic, and recurrent esophageal disease characterized by inflammation with predominance of eosinophils and symptoms of esophageal dysfunction. The disease, which is the main cause of chronic dysphagia in children, young people, and adults, shares an intrinsic correlation with allergies, both in pathophysiology and in epidemiological data, and it was recently considered a late manifestation of the atopic march in some people. The present study aims to expand the knowledge about the disease, as EoE is a relatively new condition in the history of medicine and its diagnosis depends on high clinical suspicion. In addition, because EoE is an entity with a high potential to impact quality of life and cause physiological, psychological, and social repercussions for patients, suspicion and early recognition of the disease are essential for implementing an appropriate therapy and obtaining control over disease progression.
