Laparoscopy versus laparotomy for FIGO stage 1 ovarian cancer (Review)

Background This is an updated version of the original review that was first published in the Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews 2008, Issue 4. Laparoscopy has become an increasingly common approach to surgical staging of apparent early-stage ovarian tumours. This review was undertaken to assess the available evidence on the benefits and risks of laparoscopy compared with laparotomy for the management of International Federation of Gynaecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) stage I ovarian cancer. Objectives To evaluate the benefits and risks of laparoscopy compared with laparotomy for the surgical treatment of FIGO stage I ovarian cancer (stages Ia, Ib and Ic). Search methods For the original review, we searched the Cochrane Gynaecological Cancer Group Trials (CGCRG) Register, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials (CENTRAL 2007, Issue 2), MEDLINE, EMBASE, LILACS, Biological Abstracts and CancerLit from 1 January 1990 to 30 November 2007. We also handsearched relevant journals, reference lists of identified studies and conference abstracts. For this updated review, we extended the CGCRG Specialised Register, CENTRAL, MEDLINE, EMBASE and LILACS searches to 6 December 2011. Selection criteria Randomised controlled trials (RCTs), quasi-RCTs and prospective cohort studies comparing laparoscopic staging with open surgery (laparotomy) in women with stage I ovarian cancer according to FIGO. Data collection and analysis There were no studies to include, therefore we tabulated data from non-randomised studies (NRS) for discussion. Main results We performed no meta-analyses. Authors’ conclusions This review has found no good-quality evidence to help quantify the risks and benefits of laparoscopy for the management of earlystage ovarian cancer as routine clinical practice

Evaluation of the care provided by the outpatient clinic of the league of combat against STD/AIDS, health center, S.P., 1994-1997

Este trabalho analisou a assistência médica prestada pelos alunos da Liga de Combate a DST/AIDS, da Faculdade de Medicina de Ribeirão Preto - USP, no curso de três anos emeio, junto ao Programa de Prevenção e Controle de Aids do Centro de Saúde Escola. Foi utilizada a metodologia de avaliação em saúde (processo e resultados), que contemplou o estudo da assistência médica em um período contínuo de seguimento, sendo analisados os diagnósticos formulados, os exames laboratoriais e complementares prescritos, as medidas curativas e de promoção da saúde e prevenção de doenças. Foram estudados sessenta e seis (66) indivíduos, sendo 48,5% comunicantes de portadores do Vírus da Imunodeficiência Humana ou de doentes de aids, 27,3% portadores do HIV e 24,2% de doentes de aids. Houve maioria de pacientes masculinos, embora a relação homem:mulher cresça de 1:1, 2:1 e 3,5:1 no sentido comunicantes, portadores e doentes, com uma frequência modal de 40,9% na faixa etária de trinta (30) e trinta e nove (39) anos, o grau de escolaridade e as ocupações foram característicos de nível socioeconômico baixo. Formularam-se diagnósticos de deficiência da imunidade celular, exposição a doenças transmissíveis (aids, tuberculose e outras doenças infecciosas), infecções respiratórias agudas, doenças sexualmente transmissíveis, parasitoses, entre as principais. Em média, a clientela permaneceu 3,2 meses em seguimento, recebeu 2,4 consultas e 47,7% dela abandonouo atendimento. Os alunos participaram ativamente da pesquisa; a metodologia e as informações quantitativas contribuíram para a avaliação da qualidade da assistência médica, tendo o serviço de saúde correspondido como alternativa institucional para formação e assistência mais próxima da comunidade.The medical care provided by the students of the League of Combat against STD/AIDS belonging to the Faculty of Medicine of Ribeirão Preto - USP over a period of three and a half years was evaluated. We used the method of health evaluation based on the study of medical care during a continuous period of monitoring. The aim was to assess the quality of the care provided, analyzed in terms of the diagnoses formulated, of laboratory and complementary tests, of curative measures and of health promotion and disease prevention. A total of 66 individuals were studied, 48.5% of them being communicants of patients with HIV and AIDS, 27.3% HIVinfected patients, and 24.2% patients with AIDS. Most patients were males, although the man:woman ratio has been growing from 1:1, 2:1 and 3.5:1 in the following order: communicants, infected subjects and patients, with a modal frequency of 40.9% in the 30 to 39 year age range. Educational level and occupation were characteristic of a low socioeconomic level. The followingdiagnoses were made: cell immune deficiency; contacts with patients with aids, tuberculosis and other infectious diseases; infectious respiratory disease; sexually transmitted diseases; and parasitosis. The clients were followed up on average for a period of 3.2 months and received 2.4 visits, and 47.7% of them abandoned treatment. The students participated actively in the research, the methodology and the quantitative information obtained permitted the assessment of the quality of care, with the health service corresponding to the expectations for an institutional alternative for training and for providing care closer to the community

Influência de diferentes agentes auxiliares do preparo biomecânico na obturação de canais laterais artificiais

The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the influence of some auxiliary agents of biomechanical preparation of the root canal on the filling of artificial lateral canals in extracted human teeth. A total of eighty single-rooted teeth were employed, which were submitted to preparation of three artificial lateral canals in one of the proximal aspects at the cervical, middle and apical thirds, besides one in the buccal aspect. The main canals were prepared by Profile 0.4 rotary instruments through the crown-down technique and irrigated with the irrigants investigated, as follows: Group A - 1% sodium hypochlorite and final irrigation with trisodium EDTA for 5 minutes; Group B - Endogel (2% chlorhexidine gel); Group C - Endo PTC and Dakin's solution and final irrigation with Tergentol- Furacin; and Group D - File Eze. The root canals were obturated by the Tagger's hybrid technique and then radiographed for assessment of the penetration rate of the filling materials in the lateral canals. Analysis of the results demonstrated no statistically significant difference (pObjetivou-se avaliar a influência de alguns agentes auxiliares do preparo biomecânico do canal radicular, na obturação de canais laterais artificiais em dentes humanos extraídos. Foram utilizados oitenta dentes unirradiculados nos quais, previamente, foram confeccionados três canais laterais artificiais em uma das paredes proximais, nos terços cervical, médio e apical e um canal na parede vestibular. Os canais principais foram preparados com instrumentação rotatória, instrumentos Profile 0.4, pela técnica rotatória coroa- ápice e irrigados com a substância irrigadora estudada, sendo no grupo A - hipoclorito de sódio a 1% e irrigação final com EDTA trissódico por 5 minutos; grupo B - Endogel (gel de clorexidina a 2%); grupo C - Endo PTC e solução de Dakin e irrigação final com tergentol-furacin segundo a técnica de Paiva e Antoniazzi e no grupo D - File Eze. Os canais foram obturados pela técnica híbrida de Tagger e, então, radiografados para a análise das extensões de penetração dos materiais obturadores nos canais laterais. Após a análise dos resultados, conclui-se que não houve diferença estatística significante (
