    Orientadores: Sergio de Toledo, Antonio Wilson SallumDissertação (mestrado) - Universidade Estadual de Campinas, Faculdade de Odontologia de PiracicabaResumo: O objetivo deste estudo foi avaliar clinicamente a utilização de um dispositivo de liberação lenta de clorexidina (PerioChip®) em pacientes engajados na Terapia Periodontal de Suporte (TPS) que ainda apresentavam áreas com sangramento à sondagem e profundidade de sondagem > 5mm e 0,05); o ganho de inserção clínica foi de 2,19 + 0,87mm no grupo teste e 2,07 + 1,53mm no grupo controle (p > 0,05); ambos os tratamentos mostraram diferenças intragrupo estatisticamente significantes. Com as limitações do presente estudo, pode-se concluir que os tratamentos avaliados foram igualmente efetivos em proporcionar ganho de inserção clínica em pacientes na terapia de suporte periodontal. Entretanto, considerando as bolsas periodontais profundas, o dispositivo de liberação lenta de clorexidina foi mais eficiente do que a raspagem e alisamento radicular quanto à redução na profundidade de sondagemAbstract: The aim of this study was to clinically evaluated the use of PerioChip® in sites showing bleeding on probing and pocket depth ranging from 5mm to 8mm (anterior teeth) in maintenance patients. Forty two patients that consented to participate in the study were randomly assigned to two groups test, treated with PerioChip® and control, treated by scaling and root planing. Patients were assessed for plaque index (PI), gingival index (GI), bleeding on probing (BOP), pocket depth (PD), clinical attachment level (CAL) and gingival recession (GR) at baseline, 6, 12 and 24 weeks. After 24 weeks, a reduction of 2,64 + 0,02mm and 2,12 + 0,02mm in PD was observed for the test and control group (p > 0,05), respectively. The observed gain in CAL was 2,19 + 0,87mm and 2,07 + 1,53mm for the test and control group (p > 0,05), respectively. In both treatments, the intragroup comparisons showed statistically significant differences in the parameters evaluated. Within the limits of this study, it can be concluded that both treatments were equally effective in the reestablishment of periodontal health in inflamed sites of maintenance patients. However, considering the deep periodontal pocket, the PerioChip® was more efficient than the scaling and root planing as for the reduction in the probing depthMestradoPeriodontiaMestre em Clínica Odontológic

    A sexualidade é considerada um importante pilar dentro da qualidade de vida pela Organização Mundial da Saúde (OMS) por ser um aspecto que acompanha toda a vida do ser humano. Qualquer disfunção que interfira no conforto e na vivência da sexualidade colabora para uma maior dificuldade e transtorno no âmbito afetivo, emocional e social do indivíduo. O objetivo do estudo foi avaliar o nível de satisfação sexual, qualidade vida geral e aspectos sociodemográficos de mulheres no pós-parto. A pesquisa foi aprovada pelo Comitê de Ética em Pesquisa, protocolo (Nº 3.635.266). Trata-se de um estudo transversal observacional realizado na Unidade Básica de Saúde (UBS) Pastor Jonas, em Pimenta Bueno/RO. Amostra composta por 39 mulheres com idade média de 24 anos (± 4,05), no pós-parto de 6 a 12 meses. Foram utilizados três questionários: o sociodemográfico, Quociente Sexual Feminino (QSF) para avaliar a satisfação sexual feminina, e o questionário SF-36 (qualidade de vida). Em relação ao nível de satisfação sexual observou-se que apenas 28,20% das mulheres apresentaram um score de bom a excelente, sendo 2,56% da amostra apresentou um score ruim; 5,12% desconfortável; 28,20% regular e 35,89% bom. Detectou-se ainda a prevalência de dor durante relação sexual, sendo que 21% das mulheres já apresentavam esses sintomas antes da gestação, aumentando para 36% no período gestacional e 64% no período pós-parto. Notou-se impacto negativo na qualidade de vida e satisfação sexual. Pode-se considerar fatores associados como aspectos culturais e emocionais (religião, autoestima, vergonha, falta de diálogo com o parceiro), falta de autoconhecimento corporal, amamentação, uso de anticoncepcionais, não prática de atividade física e sobrecarga de trabalho

    Rationale, study design, and analysis plan of the Alveolar Recruitment for ARDS Trial (ART): Study protocol for a randomized controlled trial

    Background: Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is associated with high in-hospital mortality. Alveolar recruitment followed by ventilation at optimal titrated PEEP may reduce ventilator-induced lung injury and improve oxygenation in patients with ARDS, but the effects on mortality and other clinical outcomes remain unknown. This article reports the rationale, study design, and analysis plan of the Alveolar Recruitment for ARDS Trial (ART). Methods/Design: ART is a pragmatic, multicenter, randomized (concealed), controlled trial, which aims to determine if maximum stepwise alveolar recruitment associated with PEEP titration is able to increase 28-day survival in patients with ARDS compared to conventional treatment (ARDSNet strategy). We will enroll adult patients with ARDS of less than 72 h duration. The intervention group will receive an alveolar recruitment maneuver, with stepwise increases of PEEP achieving 45 cmH(2)O and peak pressure of 60 cmH2O, followed by ventilation with optimal PEEP titrated according to the static compliance of the respiratory system. In the control group, mechanical ventilation will follow a conventional protocol (ARDSNet). In both groups, we will use controlled volume mode with low tidal volumes (4 to 6 mL/kg of predicted body weight) and targeting plateau pressure <= 30 cmH2O. The primary outcome is 28-day survival, and the secondary outcomes are: length of ICU stay; length of hospital stay; pneumothorax requiring chest tube during first 7 days; barotrauma during first 7 days; mechanical ventilation-free days from days 1 to 28; ICU, in-hospital, and 6-month survival. ART is an event-guided trial planned to last until 520 events (deaths within 28 days) are observed. These events allow detection of a hazard ratio of 0.75, with 90% power and two-tailed type I error of 5%. All analysis will follow the intention-to-treat principle. Discussion: If the ART strategy with maximum recruitment and PEEP titration improves 28-day survival, this will represent a notable advance to the care of ARDS patients. Conversely, if the ART strategy is similar or inferior to the current evidence-based strategy (ARDSNet), this should also change current practice as many institutions routinely employ recruitment maneuvers and set PEEP levels according to some titration method.Hospital do Coracao (HCor) as part of the Program 'Hospitais de Excelencia a Servico do SUS (PROADI-SUS)'Brazilian Ministry of Healt

    BACKGROUND: Hypertension can be detected at the primary health-care level and low-cost treatments can effectively control hypertension. We aimed to measure the prevalence of hypertension and progress in its detection, treatment, and control from 1990 to 2019 for 200 countries and territories. METHODS: We used data from 1990 to 2019 on people aged 30-79 years from population-representative studies with measurement of blood pressure and data on blood pressure treatment. We defined hypertension as having systolic blood pressure 140 mm Hg or greater, diastolic blood pressure 90 mm Hg or greater, or taking medication for hypertension. We applied a Bayesian hierarchical model to estimate the prevalence of hypertension and the proportion of people with hypertension who had a previous diagnosis (detection), who were taking medication for hypertension (treatment), and whose hypertension was controlled to below 140/90 mm Hg (control). The model allowed for trends over time to be non-linear and to vary by age. FINDINGS: The number of people aged 30-79 years with hypertension doubled from 1990 to 2019, from 331 (95% credible interval 306-359) million women and 317 (292-344) million men in 1990 to 626 (584-668) million women and 652 (604-698) million men in 2019, despite stable global age-standardised prevalence. In 2019, age-standardised hypertension prevalence was lowest in Canada and Peru for both men and women; in Taiwan, South Korea, Japan, and some countries in western Europe including Switzerland, Spain, and the UK for women; and in several low-income and middle-income countries such as Eritrea, Bangladesh, Ethiopia, and Solomon Islands for men. Hypertension prevalence surpassed 50% for women in two countries and men in nine countries, in central and eastern Europe, central Asia, Oceania, and Latin America. Globally, 59% (55-62) of women and 49% (46-52) of men with hypertension reported a previous diagnosis of hypertension in 2019, and 47% (43-51) of women and 38% (35-41) of men were treated. Control rates among people with hypertension in 2019 were 23% (20-27) for women and 18% (16-21) for men. In 2019, treatment and control rates were highest in South Korea, Canada, and Iceland (treatment >70%; control >50%), followed by the USA, Costa Rica, Germany, Portugal, and Taiwan. Treatment rates were less than 25% for women and less than 20% for men in Nepal, Indonesia, and some countries in sub-Saharan Africa and Oceania. Control rates were below 10% for women and men in these countries and for men in some countries in north Africa, central and south Asia, and eastern Europe. Treatment and control rates have improved in most countries since 1990, but we found little change in most countries in sub-Saharan Africa and Oceania. Improvements were largest in high-income countries, central Europe, and some upper-middle-income and recently high-income countries including Costa Rica, Taiwan, Kazakhstan, South Africa, Brazil, Chile, Turkey, and Iran. INTERPRETATION: Improvements in the detection, treatment, and control of hypertension have varied substantially across countries, with some middle-income countries now outperforming most high-income nations. The dual approach of reducing hypertension prevalence through primary prevention and enhancing its treatment and control is achievable not only in high-income countries but also in low-income and middle-income settings.

    A terapia antimicrobiana há anos é utilizada como um suplemento na terapia periodontal. Um dos recentes avanços mais promissores na terapia periodontal foi o desenvolvimento de sistemas de liberação lenta e contínua para a administração do antimicrobiano diretamente na bolsa periodontal. Estes sistemas de liberação local são a base de clorexidina, tetraciclina, doxiciclina, minociclina e outros agentes antimicrobianos. A administração local do antimicrobiano supera algumas desvantagens da administração sistêmica por não levar a resistência bacteriana, dentre outros efeitos adversos. O uso de antimicrobianos locais de liberação lenta tem indicação e modo de utilização específico na terapia periodontal.The antimicrobial therapy has years is used as a supplement in the periodontal therapy. One of the most promising recent progresses in the periodontal therapy was directly the development of sustained delivery systems to administer antimicrobials to the pocket periodontal. These local delivery systems are based on chlorhexidine, tetracycline, doxycycline, minocycline and other antimicrobial agents. Locally delivered antimicrobials overcome some disadvantages when compared with the systemic administration, for not taking the bacterial resistance, among other adverse effects.
