The spread of the HTLV infection in families living metropolitan area Belém, Pará, Brazil, and lack studies general population requires to better understand its prevalence region.An anti-HTLV-1/HTLV-2 antibodies test was carried out on random adults public places Belém between November 2014 2015. A proviral DNA detected if person infected, then a clinical evaluation an intrafamilial investigation were out.Of 1059 individuals being investigated, 21 (2.0%) had seroreagent samples, 15 (1.4%)...
Background The Human Papillomavirus (HPV) and Chlamydia trachomatis are the most prevalent Sexually Transmitted Infections (STIs) worldwide, associated cervical cancer pelvic inflammatory disease, respectively. However, 80% of women testing positive asymptomatic. In Amazon region, young women, in particular, widely exposed to infections their consequences. Objectives Determine prevalence sexual infection by HPV C . young, sexually-active treated at a university health program large city...
The Human T-cell Lymphotropic Virus (HTLV-1) is a Deltaretrovírus that was first isolated in the 1970s, and associated with Adult Leucemia-Lymphoma (ATLL), subsequently to Tropical Spastic Paraparesis-Myelopathy (TSP/HAM). genetic diversity of virus varies among geographic regions, although its mutation rate very low (approximately 1% per thousand years) comparison other viruses. present study determined HTLV-1 metropolitan region Belém, northern Brazil. Blood samples were obtained from...
Los coronavirus humanos (CoVh) son los responsables por ocasionar enfermedades respiratorias y entericas, siendo asociados a las infecciones agudas graves del trato respiratorio. El objetivo de este trabajo fue el identificar episodios CoVh en pacientes con infeccion respiratoria aguda (IRA) la Ciudad Belem, Estado Para, Brasil, atendidas programa vigilancia virus influenza Instituto Evandro Chagas. En periodo comprendido entre agosto 2009 marzo 2011, muestras aspirado nasofaringeo o frotis...
Human T-lymphotropic virus type 1 (HTLV-1) is associated with neurological, degenerative, and inflammatory diseases. Brazil has regions high prevalence rates. The among relatives of positive people high, intrafamily transmission causes the conservation infection for different generations. investigation epidemiological molecular factors may clarify efficacy intrafamilial HTLV-1. Objective: To analyze HTLV-1 in an endemic area Brazil. Material Methods: A cross-sectional study investigated 72...
Rotaviruses are highly infectious and transmitted by the fecal-oral route, representing a leading cause of diarrheal deaths in children developing countries. Additionally, it causes significant economic impacts as an enteropathogen among domestic animals. This report presents clinical diagnostic findings two cases rotavirus (RV) infection involving orphaned Leopardus tigrinus (Schreber, 1775) pardalis (Linnaeus, 1758), first registered group A RV (RVA) these species. Both felids were rescued...
The human T-lymphotropic virus type 1 (HTLV-1) affects 2–5 million people worldwide, and is associated with a number of degenerative infectious diseases. Envelope glycoproteins (gp) are highly conserved among the different HTLV-1 isolates, although nucleotide substitutions in region that codifies these proteins may influence both infectivity replication virus. gp46 gene has functional domains which have been inhibition formation syncytium, cell-cell transmission, production antibodies....
The human T-lymphotropic virus type 1 (HTLV-1), isolated in 1980, causes T-cell leukemia/lymphoma adulthood, a of lymphoproliferative disease, and chronic HTLV-1-associated myelopathy, disease that paralysis the lower limbs, which occur about 5% cases this viral infection. This study aimed to establish hematological profile patients with HTLV-1 infection Belém do Pará, describing parameters under study, estimating frequency lymphocytic atypical, associating diseases symptoms. Hematologic...
Pará is among the Brazilian states with highest prevalence rates of infection by human T-lymphotropic virus (HTLV) in populations where this has already been investigated. HTLV generally a higher women over 40 and stable relationship. Furthermore, are more susceptible to acquiring through sexual intercourse. In context, study aimed detect provirus vaginal-cervical discharge, subsequent confirmation blood samples, thus aiming propose new methodology for tracking infection. A total 400 were...
OBJETIVOS: Descrever os resultados da investigação epidemiológica infecção pelo vírus linfotrópico-T humano (HTLV) e enfatizar a importância das ações de extensão universitária na prevenção dessa doenças associadas em Belém, estado do Pará, Brasil.
Forensic veterinary pathology is essential to identify the cause of death animals with suspicion abuse, neglect, exogenous intoxication, medical errors, if lesions were accidental or ante-mortem in cases where animal’s identity needed. It involves several areas that can be used determine animals, such as traumatology, entomology and toxicology. This work aims main found judicial necropsies from metropolitan region Belém, qualifying most prevalent according classification forensic...
Rotaviruses are highly infectious and typically transmitted by fecal-oral route via in the tropics leading cause of diarrheal deaths children developing countries, besides causing significant economic impacts like neonatal disease agents domestic animals. This present report aims to clinical diagnostic findings two confirmed cases rotavirus (RV) infection orphaned Leopardus tigrinus (Schreber, 1775) pardalis (Linnaeus, 1758), first register group A these species. Both felids were rescued...
Este estudo tem como objetivo descrever o perfil epidemiológico dos pacientes coinfectados por HTLV-1 e Strongyloides stercoralis, oriundos do Núcleo de Medicina Tropical (NMT) localizado na Universidade Federal Pará (UFPA). Foi realizada uma análise quantitativa, retrospectiva transversal, qual foram utilizadas informações com sorologia positiva para HTLV, confirmada pela Reação em Cadeia da Polimerase (PCR) ou HTLV-2, além exames parasitológicos confirmados pelo método Hoffman. Dos 4.679...
Objetivos: Analisar os níveis da carga proviral (CPV) em portadores de HTLV-1 com diferentes condições comprometimento neurológico. Metodologia: Estudo transversal, realizado março a outubro 2017, 43 pacientes HTLV-1, divididos três grupos por ordem decrescente envolvimento neurológico, segundo proposta atualizada dos critérios diagnóstico clínico para HAM/TSP: Definidos HAM/TSP (Grupo 1, n=7); Prováveis/Possíveis 2, n=9); Sem 3, n=27). O teste ANOVA (um critério) foi utilizado verificar...
