O Futuro da Saúde / Aptidão Física / Desempenho Esportivo
2017
O exercício relativo à saúde / aptidão física e desempenho esportivo tem mostrado um papel evolutivo ao longo do tempo. São apresentados fatores primários de grande escala, que provavelmente nos ajudarão a entender o caminho evolutivo futuro da saúde / aptidão física e desempenho esportivo. Esses fatores incluem: 1) a história do exercício, 2) o exercício em sua relação com a saúde, 3) a necessidade de aptidão física entre os militares e os socorristas, 4) a relação conflitante entre o esporte (representando o ápice da capacidade genômica humana para o exercício) versus a natureza excessivamente competitiva e compensada do esporte. Predominantemente, a necessidade de exercício como medicina…

The implementation of pre-exposure prophylaxis in Spain without women
2018
El objetivo del presente artículo es la exposición sucinta de la exclusión de las mujeres en la resolución del 27 de Julio de 2017 en el que se explicita el convenio de colaboración entre la Dirección General de Salud Pública, Calidad e Innovación y la empresa Gilead Servicios S.L.U. Este convenio es la formalización de la entrada e implementación de la profilaxis preexposición ante el VIH en el territorio nacional. La profilaxis preexposición ante el VIH es una novedosa intervención biomédica de carácter preventivo aplicada en personas que no viven con el VIH, que contiene como parte fundamental la ingesta diaria de un medicamento llamado Truvada, formado por dos componentes farmacológicos…
Lifestyle interventions targeting dietary habits and exercise in bipolar disorder: A systematic review.
2015
Abstract Background Bipolar disorder (BD) is a serious mental illness associated with a high risk of medical comorbidities, long-term disability and premature death. This systematic review examined the current literature on therapeutic interventions targeting nutrition, physical activity and wellness in BD and collecting health-related measures such as mood and course of illness. Methods Scopus (all databases), Pubmed and Ovid Medline were systematically searched with no language or year restrictions, up to June 2015, for studies focusing on lifestyle interventions in BD. Search terms were related to bipolar disorder, nutrition, physical activity, wellbeing, psychosocial interventions and c…
Accurate Triage of Oncological Patients for Safely Continuing Cancer Therapy During the SARS-CoV-2 Pandemic
2021
ObjectiveTo evaluate the efficacy of clinical triage of oncological patients for safe continuation of cancer therapy implemented during the first SARS-CoV-2 outbreak.MethodsBetween 25 February and 21 April 2020, patients attending the Medical Oncology Unit, Spedali Civili Hospital, Brescia (Italy) for cancer therapy underwent triage to identify those with no signs and symptoms suspicious for SARS-CoV-2 infection in which antineoplastic treatment could be continued as scheduled. Triage questions investigated common symptoms (e.g., fever, cough, dyspnea, anosmia, dysgeusia, headache, nasal congestion, conjunctival congestion, sore throat, diarrhea, nausea and vomiting); body temperature and p…
Targetoid appearance on T2-weighted imaging and signs of tumor vascular involvement: diagnostic value for differentiating HCC from other primary live…
2021
To evaluate targetoid appearance on T2-weighted imaging and signs of tumor vascular involvement as potential new LI-RADS features for differentiating hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) from other non-HCC primary liver carcinomas (PLCs). This IRB-approved, retrospective study was performed at two liver transplant centers. The final population included 375 patients with pathologically proven lesions imaged between 2007 and 2017 with contrast-enhanced CT or MRI. The cohort consisted of 165 intrahepatic cholangiocarcinomas and 74 combined hepatocellular-cholangiocarcinomas, with the addition of 136 HCCs for control. Two abdominal radiologists (R1; R2) independently reviewed the imaging studies (112…
Emergency Endovascular Treatment of Petrous Carotid Artery False Aneurysm
2015
Abstract Introduction The management of ruptured intracranial false aneurysms (IFAs) might be tricky as any kind of treatment modality, surgical or endovascular, is burdened with significant challenges. A case report of the endovascular treatment of IFA in emergency setting is presented to provide more understanding of its pathophysiology as well as of the best operative work-up for petrous carotid artery reconstruction. Methods Technical notes from a left sided skull base abscess, involving and eroding the carotid canal and petrous carotid artery (PCA) resulting in an IFA are shown and analyzed. Results Balloon-assisted low viscosity Onyx embolization seems an effective method for the emer…
Incidence of peripheral intravenous catheter failure and complications in paediatric patients: Systematic review and meta analysis.
2020
Background: Most paediatric patients have at least one peripheral intravenous catheter insertion during their hospitalisation. Despite the important function of peripheral intravenous catheters for delivery of intravenous therapy, failure and complications rates are widely reported; however these results have not been synthesised. Objective: To provide an overall estimate of peripheral intravenous catheter failure and related complications in the paediatric population. Design: Systematic review and meta-analysis Data sources: The electronic databases, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, US National Library of Medicine National Institutes of Health, Cumulative Index of Nursing an…
Cationic lipide mediated transfer of c-abl and bcr antisense oligonucleotides to immature normal myeloid cells: Uptake, biological effects and modula…
1996
Uptake and biochemical and biological effects of antisense oligodeoxynucleotides (ODN) specific for c-abl and bcr genes were studied in normal immature myeloid cells. CD34-positive cells were purified by positive and negative selection and cultured in liquid culture for 7 days. These cells were then incubated with ODNs, either alone or in combination with cationic lipids. The uptake of ODNs was enhanced by the use of cationic lipids. In addition, very low concentrations of ODNs in combination with cationic lipids were capable of specifically inhibiting the expression of the c-abl gene. In contrast, no effects were seen on the expression of bcr. However, despite the effective blocking of c-a…
Radiäre Optikusneurotomie (RON) bei retinalen Zentralvenenverschlüssen
2007
Background Compression in the lamina cribrosa is discussed as a reason for central retinal vein occlusion. Radial optic neurotomy should release the pressure and increase venous blood outflow. Patients and methods In a clinical trial 27 eyes with central retinal vein occlusion (22 eyes with clinical ischaemia, 5 eyes with continuous disc oedema and visual acuity below 4/10) underwent surgical decompression by vitrectomy and radial optic neurotomy. During surgery the intravenous pressure in the central vein was tested by infusion dynamometry before and right next to the incision. Follow up-time minimally was 1.5 years. Results Infusion dynamometry demonstrated a decrease of the central vein …
