Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is associated with osteoporosis and fragility fractures. The objectives of this study were to assess static dynamic indices cancellous cortical bone structure in postmenopausal women COPD. Twenty COPD who had not received chronic oral glucocorticoids underwent biopsies after double tetracycline labeling. Biopsies analyzed by histomorphometry µCT compared age-matched controls. Distribution the patients according Global Initiative for Obstructive...

To evaluate the impact of a short-term cardiovascular physical programme on metabolic, anthropometric and oxidative stress parameters women with metabolic syndrome.Thirty sedentary female patients, age range 30-60 years, were invited to participate in 6-week programme. The training consisted 60-min sessions aerobic strength exercises performed 3 times week; total 18 sessions. Anthropometric data, functional exercise capacity, general biochemical profile, serum lipid peroxidation, superoxide...
Our objective was to evaluate the reproducibility of Asthma Control Questionnaire 7 (ACQ-7) in asthma patients, comparing our results against those obtained with Global Initiative for (GINA) criteria. We evaluated 52 patients. Patients completed ACQ-7, underwent spirometry, and were clinically assessed determine level control according GINA criteria, two visits, 15 days apart. The ACQ-7 cutoff uncontrolled a score 1.5. showed good reproducibility, correlation coefficient 0.73. identified...
Abstract Objective: To perform a quantitative assessment of bronchial wall thickening and the emphysema score in patients with stable chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), comparing eosinophilic non-eosinophilic COPD phenotypes. Materials Methods: This was retrospective observational study followed between August 2018 July 2019. The were divided into two groups by eosinophil count peripheral blood: (≥ 300 cells/µL); (< cells/µL). Quantitative, automated assessments thickness...

O sequestro broncopulmonar (SBP) é uma condição rara caracterizada pela presença de tecido pulmonar sem função e conexão com as vias respiratórias, podendo se apresentar duas formas: intralobar ou extralobar.1 Mais raramente, o SBP pode associado a fistula gastrointestinal. Relatamos caso paciente 20 anos histórico pneumonias repetição dor torácica ventilatória dependente que, após exames tomografia computadorizada tórax contrastada endoscopia digestiva alta, foi diagnosticada segmento basal...
SUMMARY OBJECTIVE: A small portion of the asthmatic population (3.6%) has severe asthma (SA), presenting high morbimortality rates and demanding more financial resources than other populations. The use immunobiological therapy is an effective tool in controlling symptoms, decreasing number exacerbations, reducing systemic corticosteroids these patients. In Brazil, epidemiological data regarding this using immunobiologicals their evolution are scarce. METHODS: This observational, analytical,...
