Mechanical ventilation can be a life-saving intervention, but its implementation requires multidisciplinary approach, with an understanding of indications and contraindications due to the potential for complications. The management mechanical should part curricula during clinical training; however, trainees practicing professionals frequently report low confidence in managing ventilation, often seeking additional sources knowledge. Review articles, consensus statements practice guidelines...
Sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase (SERCA2a) and sarcolemmal Na+/Ca2+ exchanger (NCX1) structures are involved in heart cell Ca2+ homeostasis. Previous studies have shown discrepancies their function expression failure. The goal of this study was to evaluate hypertrophied muscle Ca2+-handling protein behavior under pressure overload. Twenty male Wistar rats were divided into two groups: Aortic stenosis (AoS), induced by a clip placed at the beginning aorta, Control (Sham). After 18 weeks,...
Pentalogy of Fallot (PoF) is a congenital heart disease comprising tetralogy plus an atrial septal defect (ASD). Patients are diagnosed early in life and submitted to reparative surgery. Without it, the prognosis poor. This female patient, initially with transposition great arteries (TGA), ASD ventricular defect, got pregnant at 26 years old had delivery due fetal distress. She resumed follow-up, her last echocardiogram put doubt diagnosis TGA. Cardiac CT then revealed PoF as well pulmonary...
Cardiovascular rehabilitation is one of the treatment options for post-stroke individuals in order to improve functional independence activities daily life and reduce energy expenditure. The aim this trial evaluate effect an exercise program on echocardiographic variables, capacity, inflammatory response, neurological status, nutritional cardiologic evaluation, quality patients after stroke. This a randomized controlled including with ischemic stroke chronic phase. will be evaluated at...
Introducao O lupus eritematoso sistemico (LES) e uma doenca inflamatoria cronica com caracteristicas multissistemicas autoimunes. E a autoimune sistemica mais comum, ocorrendo principalmente em mulheres entre 20 40 anos de idade, razao sexo feminino para masculino 10:1. Embora os rins sejam classicamente considerados o principal orgao acometido pelo LES, cardiomiopatia das complicacoes frequentemente associadas morbimortalidade pacientes LES. comprometimento cardiovascular pode ser altamente...
Purpose: to evaluate the use of air tonometer (TA) in population studies individuals suspected ocular hypertension, comparing values with those provided by Goldmann Tonometer (GT). Methods: a cross-sectional study was done using probabilistic sample consisting 11,452 e”20 years old.A subsample composed IOP obtained TA mmHg selected, which repeated GT. The results both tonometers were compared considering gender, referred color [...]
Atrial fibrillation (AF) affects 0.5% to 2.0% of the general population and is usually associated with cardiac structural diseases, hemodynamic damage, thromboembolic complications. Oral anticoagulation prevents events monitored by international normalized ratio (INR).To evaluate INR stability in nonvalvular AF patients treated warfarin anticoagulation, or hemorrhagic complications, identify group at higher risk for events.Data from medical records 203 who received care a tertiary hospital...
Background: Currently there are no disease modifying treatment for Synucleinopathies including Parkinson’s Dementia (PDD). Carrying a mutation in the GBA gene (beta-glucocerebrosidase/ GCAse) is leading risk factor synucleinopathies. Raising activity GCAse lowers α-synuclein levels cells and animal models. Ambroxol pharmacological chaperone can raise levels. Our goal to test as disease-modifying PDD. Methods: We randomized fifty-five individuals with PDD 1050mg/day, 525mg/day, or placebo 52...
Abstract Most of the carbonate samples have a basic well-defined pretreatment protocol for 14 C-AMS dating, but particularities specific organisms to be treated with care. This is case stromatolite samples, in which formed by biogenesis and also has porous structure that could contain recent organic material as contaminant. In this work, we analyzed differences radiocarbon content using matter removals before chemical treatment HCl: sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) 0.7M solution pH ∼11, hydrogen...
Introducao A policitemia vera (PV) e uma neoplasia mieloproliferativa clonal progressiva cronica caracterizada por um aumento absoluto nos eritrocitos e, geralmente, leucocitose, trombocitose esplenomegalia. Sua incidencia esta em torno de 2,8/100.000 pessoas ano. O diagnostico feito utilizando os criterios definidos pelas diretrizes revisadas da Organizacao Mundial Saude (OMS) 2016. Os principais sao niveis hemoglobina acima 16,5 16,0 g/dL ou hematocritos 49 48% homens mulheres,...
BACKGROUND Primary cardiac tumors represent less than 5% of total tumors. Fibroelastoma is a rare benign tumor that usually asymptomatic but acknowledged for its emboligenic potential causing cardiac, neurological, and vascular symptoms increasing patient morbidity mortality. CASE REPORT This report describes the clinical case 27-year-old woman who entered Emergency Department with motor aphasia hemiparesis in right dimidium. A brain computed tomography scan was performed at admission, which...
The phase angle (PhA) has been used as a nutritional marker and predictor of mortality in patients on peritoneal dialysis (PD). coronary artery calcium (CAC) score shown to predict the incidence acute myocardial infarction death from cardiovascular disease these patients. However, association between PhA CAC with PD is not well-established, which objective this study.Cross-sectional study PD, followed up at University Hospital, March 2018 August 2019. was evaluated by unifrequency...
Background: The incidence of restenosis the coronary artery after a bare-metal stent implant has been lower than in simple balloon angioplasty; however, it still shows relatively high rates. Objective: aim this study was to find new risk indicators for in-stent using carotid ultrasonography, that, addition already existing indicators, would help decision-making selection. Methods: We carried out cross-sectional prospective including 121 consecutive patients with chronic disease [...]
