Influencia del Pie de Morton sobre la función de la columna lumbar y pelvis en estudiantes de la Universidad Andrés Bello

Tesis (Kinesiólogo)El problema a tratar en este trabajo, es la influencia de la alteración del pie Morton en el apoyo plantar y sobre las disfunciones lumbo-pélvicas. Se realizó un estudio de un universo de 34 alumnos, en donde 20 de ellos presentaron pie de Morton, los cuales fueron escogidos de acuerdo a variados criterios de inclusión y exclusión. El estudio corresponde a una investigación descriptiva, en donde se busca un análisis exhaustivo de la relación del pie de Morton con la biomecánica lumbopélvica, para ello, se realizó una serie de procedimientos tanto evaluativos como de tratamiento además de la aplicación de algunos test ortopédicos previamente escogidos para el estudio. Luego de esto, se utilizó una órtesis metatarsiana con la cual los pacientes caminaron por 2 minutos, posteriormente fueron reevaluados con los mismos test ortopédicos usados en la evaluación inicial; se observó una serie de variaciones en la biomecánica de miembro inferior, especialmente en la articulación lumbo-pélvica

Mineral metabolism disorders, vertebral fractures and aortic calcifications in stable kidney transplant recipients: The role of gender (EMITRAL study).

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: The relationship between mineral metabolism disorders, bone fractures and vascular calcifications in kidney transplant recipients has not been established. METHOD: We performed a cross-sectional study in 727 stable recipients from 28 Spanish transplant clinics. Mineral metabolism parameters, the semi-quantification of vertebral fractures and abdominal aortic calcifications were determined centrally. RESULTS: Vitamin D deficiency (25OHD3<15ng/ml) was more common in female recipients at CKD-T stages I-III (29.6% vs 44.4%; p=0.003). The inverse and significant correlation between 25OHD3 and PTH was gender-specific and women exhibited a steeper slope than men (p=0.01). Vertebral fractures (VFx) with deformity grade ≥2 were observed in 15% of recipients. Factors related to VFx differed by gender; in males, age (OR 1.04; 95% CI 1.01-1.06) and CsA treatment (OR: 3.2; 95% CI: 1.6-6.3); in females, age (OR 1.07; 95% CI: 1.03-1.12) and PTH levels (OR per 100pg/ml increase: 1.27; 95% CI: 1.043-1.542). Abdominal aortic calcifications were common (67.2%) and related to classical risk factors but not to mineral metabolism parameters. CONCLUSIONS: Vitamin D deficiency is more common among female kidney transplant recipients at earlier CKD-T stages, and it contributes to secondary hyperparathyroidism. Prevalent vertebral fractures are only related to high serum PTH levels in female recipients

Mineral metabolism parameters, the semi-quantification of vertebral fractures and abdominal aortic calcifications were determined centrally. Results: Vitamin D deficiency (250HD(3) = 2 were observed in 15% of recipients. Factors related to VFx differed by gender; in males, age (OR 1.04; 95% CI 1.01-1.06) and CsA treatment (OR: 3.2; 95% CI: 1.6-6.3); in females, age (OR 1.07; 95% CI: 1.03-1.12) and PTH levels (OR per 100 pg/ml increase: 1.27; 95% CI: 1.043-1.542).
