Clostridium difficile (Cd) toxins appear to mediate the inflammatory response in pseudomembranous colitis and/or associated with use of antibiotics. In contrast Cd Toxin A (TxA), B (TxB) has been reported not promote fluid secretion or morphological damage rabbits and hamsters also does induce neutrophil chemotaxis vitro . However, TxB is about 1000 times more potent than TxA stimulating release tumour necrosis factor‐ α (TNF‐ ) by cultured monocytes. present study, we investigated ability...
The anti-inflammatory activity of pertussis toxin (Ptx) was compared to that a noncatalytic mutant (9K/129G; Ptxm), which contains two amino acid substitutions in the A protomer, by using rat model inflammation. toxins were administered intravenously 1 h prior injection inflammatory stimuli. Ptx, but not Ptxm, inhibited neutrophil migration into peritoneal cavities response formyl-methionyl-leucyl-phenylalanine and lipopolysaccharide. inhibitory effect Ptx on could be explained ability...
ABSTRACT Background: In the Western world, population developed an overweight profile. The morbidly obese generate higher cost to health system. However, there is a gap in this approach with regard individuals above eutrofic pattern, who are not considered as obese. Aim: To correlate nutritional status according BMI costs of laparoscopic cholecystectomy public hospital. Method: Data were collected from medical records about: risk assessment, nutricional state and hospital patients undergoing...
<i>Background:</i> Exposure of the spinal cord in myelomeningocele (MM) throughout gestation increases injury. Astrocyte activation evidenced by glial fibrillary acidic proteins (GFAP) indicates extent Corticosteroids modulate GFAP synthesis, but their effect MM is unclear. The purpose this study was to evaluate expression a fetal rat model dysraphism and corticosteroid treatment on marker clinical neurological disabilities. <i>Methods:</i> Dysraphism surgically...
O presente estudo teve por objetivo avaliar o nível de conhecimento dos estudantes Medicina sobre funcionamento do Serviço Atendimento Móvel Urgência (Samu) , dada a importância deste serviço para população e seu papel fundamental no Sistema Único Saúde (SUS) . Para tanto, acadêmicos primeiro ao 12ºsemestre foram entrevistados mediante um questionário padronizado. Concluiu-se que mesmo Medicina, indivíduos se encontram imersos na área da saúde, possuem aquém esperado Samu, independentemente...
Resumo: O adequado e rápido atendimento de pacientes com situações clínicas ou cirúrgicas urgência emergência é um dos principais focos das ações Saúde Pública em nosso país no mundo. É missão do meio acadêmico, portanto, desenvolver atividades para promover educação continuada sobre este tema. A despeito ensino curricular nos cursos graduação, extracurriculares, como as ligas, são importantes ampliar conhecimento, inclusive fora da universidade. objetivo presente artigo relatar a...
Esophageal atresia (EA) is characterized by esophageal and gastric motility changes secondary to developmental postsurgical damage. This study evaluated the in vitro contractile profile of distal esophagus fundus an experimental model EA induced doxorubicin (DOXO). Wistar pregnant rats received DOXO 2.2 mg/kg on 8th 9th gestational days. On day 21.5, fetuses were collected, sacrificed, divided into groups: control, without (DOXO-EA), with (DOXO+EA). Strips from mounted a wire myograph...
Pectin has been used as dietary fiber to have beneficial effects on the human body.Although albedo citrus are most common sources of commercial pectin extraction, pectins different characteristics such degree esterification, particle size, rheological, solubility and gelling ability, which is directly connected raw material ultilizada for their extraction results in need study alternative sources.The aim this was determine some viscometric parameters (kinematic viscosity, intrinsic constant...
Inguinal hernia is a common surgical condition in premature neonates. Because of physiological immaturity, they can present with lung-related diseases, such as bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD), which may influence the time for operation and postoperative outcome after repair. The aim this study was to analyze role BPD infants who underwent herniorrhaphy.Fifty-two repair from 1996 2004 at CAISM-UNICAMP were included study. Seventeen babies had 35 did not. features reviewed included: (i)...
OBJETIVO: Relatar a experiência inicial do Centro Infantil Boldrini com esplenectomia laparoscópica (EL) em crianças e adultos jovens. MÉTODO: Foram revisados os prontuários de 40 pacientes (mediana da idade 6,6 anos; 1 22,8) submetidos à EL entre Julho 2000 Maio 2002. As principais indicações acordo doença base foram: falciforme (DF) 20 (50%), esferocitose hereditária 10 (25 %), púrpura trombocitopência idiopática oito (20 Hodgkin um anemia hemolítica esclarecer um.

Atribui-se a Gibson, na segunda metade do século XVII, clássica descrição da atresia de esôfago (AE), malformação congênita incidência um caso cada 2500-4500 nascimentos. Sua etiologia permanece desconhecida, porém, estudos associam-na com prematuridade, gemelaridade e consanguinidade parental. Mediante localização sítio identificação fístula traqueal associada, pode ser classificada em cinco variantes, cuja compreensão determina o manejo clínico-cirúrgico. Trata-se uma condição benigna,...
RESUMO Objetivo: avaliar o papel do diagnóstico pré-natal da gastrosquise na qualidade atendimento e evolução de neonatos (RN) com gastrosquise. Métodos: estudo retrospectivo 25 casos RN gastrosquise, abordados Universidade Estadual Campinas, entre janeiro 1989 junho 1998. Resultados: comparando-se os grupos (PN) neonatal (NN), não foram observadas diferenças quanto à incidência prematuridade, peso ao nascer relação idade gestacional. A mediana tempo nascimento a correção foi 5 horas. Tal...
This study investigated the ability of Clostridium difficile toxin B, isolated from VPI 10463 strain, to induce fever and neutrophilia in rats. Intravenous injection B (0.005-0.5 mug/kg) evoked a dose-dependent increase body temperature. The febrile response 0.5 mug/kg started 2.5 h, peaked at 5 subsided fully within 24 h. Toxin also induced dosedependent neutrophilia. Pretreatment with indomethacin (2 mg/kg, i.p.) did not affect by but significantly reduced measured 4 8 h after injection....
