From 1977 to 1983, 94 patients with esophageal varices and gastrointestinal bleeding secondary mansonic schistosomiasis were entered into a prospective randomized trial comparing the three operations mainly used in Brazil: esophagogastric devascularization associated splenectomy (EGDS, 32 patients), classical splenorenal shunt (SRS, distal (DSRS, 30 patients). The randomization was interrupted because of significant incidence portosystemic encephalopathy (PSE) SRS group (26%), as compared...
The detection of salivary molecules associated with pathological and physiological alterations has encouraged the search novel non-invasive diagnostic biomarkers for oral health evaluation. While genomic, transcriptomic, proteomic profiles human saliva have been reported, its metabolic composition is a topic research: metabolites in submandibular/sublingual never analyzed systematically. In this study, samples whole, parotid, from 20 healthy donors, without dental or periodontal diseases,...
We prospectively evaluated safety and efficacy from our six-year results of general anesthesia (GA) using remifentanil conscious sedation in carotid endarterectomy (CEA).From January 2005 to December 2010, 625 consecutive CEAs were performed on 545 patients (male/female 336/209, age 75 ± 7 years). After a superficial plexus block with ropavacaine, GA was induced an intravenous infusion propofol, local lidocaine during tracheal intubation high-dose remifentanil, all cases reducing then...
Saliva, which contains molecular information that may reflect an individual's health status, has become a valuable tool for discovering biomarkers of oral and general diseases. Due to the high vascularization salivary glands, there is exchange between blood saliva. However, composition saliva complex influenced by multiple factors. This study aimed investigate possible relationships serum metabolomes gain comprehensive view metabolic phenotype under physiological conditions. Using 1H-NMR...
The internal carotid artery (ICA) usually, lies posterolaterally to the external (ECA). Sometimes a complete transposition can occur, with ECA in lateral position and ICA on medial side occur. Our study evaluated significance impact that this anomaly may have cranial nerve injuries. From January 2008 November 2010, 296 patients underwent 360 consecutive primary endarterectomy (CEA) procedures. During isolation, we detected an unexpected of 11 cases (3.6%). χ(2) analysis Student's t-test were...
A double-blind clinical trial involving 120 patients with chronic schistosomiasis was carried out to compare the tolerability and efficacy of praziquantel oxamniquine. The were randomly allocated into two groups. One treated praziquantel, 55 mg/kg body weight CBWT), other one oxamniquine, 15mg/kg bwt, administered in a single oral dose. diagnosis parasitological follow-up based on stool examinations by quantitative Kato-Katz method rectal biopsies. Side-effects — mainly dizziness, sleepness,...
Arterial injury of the lower limb is a rare but catastrophic complication saphenous vein stripping with high morbidity rate and severe medico-legal implications. Diagnosis often delayed outcome depends on severity injury. We report two cases ischemia due to arterial lesion during varicose veins surgery.In first case, superficial femoral artery ligature after an operation for recurrent surgery occurred; in second intraoperative was detected. In angiography carried out superficial-superficial...
Periodontal diseases, including gingivitis and periodontitis, are among the most prevalent diseases in humans. Gingivitis is mildest form of periodontal disease, characterized by inflammation gingiva caused accumulation dental plaque. Salivary diagnostics becoming increasingly popular due to variation saliva composition response pathological processes. We used a metabolomics approach investigate whether specific metabolic could indicate preclinical stage gingivitis. 1H-NMR spectroscopy was...
