Neuroendocrine tumors (NET) include a spectrum of malignancies arising from neuroendocrine cells throughout the body. The objective this clinical investigation retrospectively and prospectively collected data was to describe prevalence, demographic data, symptoms methods diagnosis NET treatment long-term follow-up patients with NET. Data were provided by participating centers assessed for consistency internal reviewers. All cases centrally evaluated (when necessary) pathologists in our...
Background and purpose: Qualitative research on individuals with massive rotator cuff tears (MRCT) is scarce. This study aims to identify the perceptions, concerns, treatment outcomes relevant MRCT of shoulder, as expected before or experienced afterward.Methods: A qualitative was designed using a hermeneutic phenomenological methodology. Purposive sampling employed potentially eligible patients (diagnosed aged 60–85 years) in trauma orthopedic outpatient clinics 3 hospitals Spain. The 2...
Abstract To compare the effectiveness at ten years of follow-up radical prostatectomy, brachytherapy and external radiotherapy, in terms overall survival, prostate cancer-specific mortality biochemical recurrence. Cohort men diagnosed with localized cancer (T1/T2 low/intermediate risk) from Spanish hospitals, followed for 10 years. The treatment selection was decided jointly by patients physicians. Of 704 participants, 192 were treated open retropubic 317 125 I alone, 195 3D beam radiation....
Patients with acute respiratory failure have been treated intubation and mechanical ventilation for treatment of hypoxemia, hypoventilation distress. However, tracheal is associated several complications, use sedatives prolongation hospitalization time. Noninvasive provides ventilatory assistance without the need artificial airway, masks in patient-ventilator interface. Its clinical practice has increased over last 20 years as well availability technology resources its implementation....
The aim is to establish an specific, non-invasive, sub-maximum and applicable day-to-day protocol assess the internal training load (IL) for basketball players using Heart Rate Variability (HRV) analysis before practice or competitions. Another propose a new IL index as standardized parameter (%), manage sessions competition. Twelve amateur male (age: 26.5 ± 8.8 years) completed HRV tests submaximal intermittent drill (Activity Lay Up Wheel; ALUWIL 6min-test). Players performed 5on5...
Purpose: The aim of this study was to assess health inequalities by sexual attraction in the 2016-2017 Barcelona population, stratifying sex. Methods: Data came from Health Survey, where 3362 adults answered among other instruments EuroQol-5 dimensions-5 levels (EQ-5D-5L), which measures five dimensions and summarizes health-related quality life into a single utility index score. To differences attraction, we constructed Tobit models for EQ-5D score Poisson regression dimensions. Nested were...
Abstract Purpose To assess the validity, reliability, and responsiveness of Spanish version Expanded Prostate cancer Index Composite (EPIC) with 26 items. Methods Multicentric longitudinal study patients diagnosed localized or locally advanced prostate (any T, any N, M0) treated active surveillance, surgery, external radiotherapy, brachytherapy. The EPIC-50 was administered initially to cohort ( n = 324 patients), until it replaced in November 2019 by EPIC-26 543), both groups before...
A polineuromiopatia do paciente crítico é uma doença com grande prevalência entre os pacientes internados em unidade de terapia intensivae expostos aos seus fatores risco, dentre osquais a sepse possui importância. Essa provoca redução da funcionalidade e dificulta sua saída prótese ventilatóriapor atingir nervos músculos tanto dosmembros quanto ventilatórios, promovendo alterações funcionais no sarcolema causando na excitabilidade perda fibras musculares tipo I II, além prejudicar função...
Introdução: Limitações físicas e psicológicas decorrentes do repouso prolongado no leito são complicações comumente encontradas paciente crítico impactam diretamente na capacidade funcional. Objetivos: Avaliar a evolução da funcional, força muscular periférica respiratória de pacientes ventilados mecanicamente internados CTI Geral Hospital Universitário Pedro Ernesto (HUPE). Metodologia: No período dezembro 2016 fevereiro 2017 observamos os admitidos CTI. Pacientes que não evoluíram para...
There is scarce comparative effectiveness research on the new treatment modalities for localized prostate cancer. We aim to compare through Patient-Reported Outcome Measures (PROMs) impact of active surveillance, robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP), intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT), and real-time brachytherapy, considering side effects (incontinence, irritative/obstructive urinary symptoms, sexual dysfunction bowel symptoms) physical mental health.Prospective cohort men...
A polineuromiopatia do paciente crítico é uma afecção comum em pacientes graves unidade de terapia intensiva, expostos a seus fatores risco, sendo muitas vezes subdiagnosticada e capaz causar prejuízo funcional ao paciente, incluindo capacidade ventilatória, desencadeando insufi ciência respiratória aguda por incompetência neuromuscular. presente revisão, realizada através pesquisa sistemática da literatura, objetiva identificar se as alterações contratilidade muscular na crítico, focando...
O objetivo deste relato de caso foi estabelecer protocolo estimulação via marca-passo diafragmático, pela equipe fisioterapia, visando desmame da ventilação mecânica invasiva uma paciente com lesão medular alta internada na Unidade Terapia Intensiva há 13 anos por dependência artificial. Verificou-se aumento do volume corrente durante a e também em cinco vezes pressão inspiratória máxima comparado ao valor inicial. Entretanto, o treino interrompido no 40º dia devido à instalação neuromielite...
255 Background: Grade 2 (G2) Neuroendocrine tumors (NETs), of the digestive tract is a heterogeneous group tumors. Several treatment options including chemotherapy and target therapy are available, but there lack prospective trials assessing role pronostic factors in this population. Aim(s): to analyze prognostic clinical characteristics population patients with G2 GEP-NETs. To determine ki 67 stratification Methods: Study was obtained from our database (Argentum Group). Survival estimated...
Similar Patient-Reported Outcomes (PROs) at diagnosis for localized prostate cancer among countries may indicate that different treatments are recommended to the same profile of patients, regardless context characteristics (health systems, medical schools, culture, preferences…). The aim this study was assess such comparison.We analyzed EPIC-26 results before primary treatment men diagnosed from January 2017 onwards (revised data available up September 2019), a multicenter prospective...
e14598 Background: Somatostatin receptor expression (SSTR), mainly subtypes 2 and 5, is a feature of well differentiated GEP-NETs. Such has prognostic predictive value for the use somatostatin analogs.Ki 67, present during cycle phases (G1, S, G2 y M) nuclear antigen associated with cell proliferation. The correlation between both clinical pathological factors under active investigation in patients Methods: An analysis including 100 database Argentum Group was performed. Consecutive were...
