Oral paracoccidioidomycosis:a retrospective study of 95 cases from a single center and literature review
2023
The ecoepidemiological panorama of paracoccidioidomycosis (PCM) is dynamic and still ongoing in Brazil. In particular, data about the oral lesions of PCM are barely explored. The aim of this study was to report the clinicopathological features of individuals diagnosed with oral PCM lesions at an oral and maxillofacial pathology service in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, in the light of a literature review. A retrospective study was conducted on oral biopsies obtained from 1958 to 2021. Additionally, electronic searches were conducted in PubMed, Embase, Scopus, Web of Science, Latin American and Caribbean Center on Health Sciences Information, and Brazilian Library of Dentistry to gather information…
Appendicular fracture epidemiology of children and adolescents: a 10-year case review in Western Australia (2005 to 2015)
2018
Fracture incidence data of Australian children and adolescents have not been reported in the literature. A 10-year case review of fracture presentations in Western Australia is provided. Between 2005 and 2015, fracture incidence increased relative to population growth. This is concerning, and interventions are required to reverse this trend. Purpose Fracture incidence in 0–16-year-olds is high and varies between countries. Boys have a 1.5:1 ratio of fracture incidence compared to girls. There are no specific data for Australia. Western Australia is a state with unique geography and population distribution having only a single tertiary paediatric hospital (Princess Margaret Hospital, PMH, in…
Methylprednisolone-induced hepatotoxicity in a 16-year-old girl with multiple sclerosis.
2018
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic inflammatory disease with demyelination of the central nervous system. High-dosage corticosteroids are the first-line therapy in the acute relapsing of MS. We report a case of severe high-dose methylprednisolone-induced acute hepatitis in a patient with a new diagnosis of MS. A 16-year-old girl was admitted for urticaria, angioedema, nausea and vomiting a month later she had been diagnosed with MS and treated with high-dosage methylprednisolone. Laboratory investigations showed hepatic insufficiency with grossly elevated liver enzymes. A liver biopsy showed focal centrilobular hepatocyte necrosis with interface hepatitis. Methylprednisolone-induced hepat…
Cross‐sectional associations between physical fitness and biomarkers of inflammation in children : the PANIC study
2023
Background Systemic low-grade inflammation has been proposed as an underlying pathophysiological mechanism for cardiometabolic diseases. We investigated the associations of physical fitness with systemic low-grade inflammatory state in a population sample of children. Methods Altogether 391 children aged 6–9 years were examined. Cardiorespiratory fitness (maximal power output, Wmax) was assessed by a maximal cycle ergometer test and neuromuscular fitness by hand grip strength, sit-up, standing long jump, 50-metre shuttle run, static balance, sit-and-reach, and box and block tests. Body fat percentage (BF%) and lean mass (LM) were assessed by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry. High sensitivit…
Wykorzystywanie seksualne małoletnich przez duchownych w kinematografii: nierozpoznane znaki czasu
2021
Contemporary theology applies the old notion of loci theologici also to media and film. It is not only films that are directly religious (biblical, hagiographies, etc.) that have theological significance, but also those that take up topics related to the Church in a critical way. Therefore, one should be aware of the appearance of successive films, documentaries and feature films, which raise the issue of sexual abuse against the youngest (paedophilia) also in the Church. The article presents the most important films, whose authors present the perpetrators of paedophilia, the mechanisms leading to its concealment and silence not only in the Church, but also in the media and society, as well…
Les cités des Eduens et de Chalon durant l'Antiquité tardive (v. 260-530 env.). Contribution à l'étude de l'Antiquité tardive en Gaule centrale.
2005
This research deals with the evolution of two of the main ciuitates of the Lugdunensis prima province. It explores their territorial organisation, social and economic structures between the emergence of the Gallic Empire (260 AD) and the end of the kingdom of the Burgundians (530 AD).After tackling the methodological, archeological and historical issues raised by the study of the two ciuitates, it focuses on the city of Autun, on its small neighbouring towns (including Chalon), rural areas and religious practices. The last part is a synthesis of the data, which is set in a historical and chronological framework. This part aims at highlighting the different stages of social developments in t…
Evaluation and improvement of the quality of the discharge prescription in Cystic Fibrosis children hospitalised for intravenous antibiotic therapy
2017
1.Antecedentes. La Fibrosis Quística (FQ) es una enfermedad conocida desde la edad media, aunque durante esa época no estaba descrita como tal sino más bien como un hechizo maligno. En 1943, Farber propuso el término mucoviscidosis y este término se sigue utilizando en la actualidad. La FQ es la enfermedad hereditaria autosómica recesiva grave más frecuente en la población blanca, con una incidencia en Europa que oscila entre 1:1.353 en Irlanda y entre 1:25.000 en Finlandia, y una frecuencia de portadores de 1 por cada 2527. Es una enfermedad de las células epiteliales exocrinas, que se caracteriza por la producción de un moco espeso y viscoso que obstruye los conductos del órgano donde se …
Effect of an insect growth regulator (halofenozide) on the cuticular hydrocarbons of Culex pipiens larvae
2013
The cuticular hydrocarbons of the fourth-instar larvae of Culex pipiens aged one and six days were analysed by gas chromatography and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. The effect of an insect growth regulator (halofenozide = RH-0345) on the cuticular hydrocarbons was evaluated using newly moulted fourth-instar larvae of C. pipiens, at the lethal concentrations (LC50 = 12.58 and LC90 = 28.58 mu g/l). A previous study revealed that RH-0345 is toxic to larvae of C. pipiens by induction of precocious larval moulting. Several cuticular hydrocarbons (CHCs) were identified and many of the other compounds remained unknown. Our data show that the CHC classes consisted of n-alkanes (C23-C29) and …
