As ITUs em sua maioria são causadas por bactérias Gram-negativas, sendo a Escherichia coli o micro-organismo invasor mais comum, isolado em cerca de 80% a 90% das infecções agudas de origem comunitária. Neste início de terceiro milênio, a resistência bacteriana é um dos desafios globais de saúde pública a ser enfrentado e sabe-se que, a intensidade de exposição ao antimicrobiano é um importante parâmetro relacionado à seleção e à manutenção de bactérias resistentes. Em 2010 o Brasil vivia uma situação na qual estavam sendo observados vários focos de infecções hospitalares causadas por micro-organismos multirresistentes como a Klebsiella pneumoniae produtoras de carbapenemase (KPC). Em função do preocupante cenário, em 2010 foi implantada a Resolução da Diretoria Colegiada (RDC) nº 44 da Agência Nacional de Vigilância Sanitária (ANVISA) que possui, dentre outros objetivos, a diminuição da resistência bacteriana aos antimicrobianos. Objetivo: Estudar o perfil de resistência de bactérias Gram-negativas relacionadas às ITUs de origem comunitária e analisar a influência da legislação atuante no controle de venda de antimicrobianos. Métodos: População de pacientes de demanda espontânea aos hospitais da Universidade Estadual de Campinas entre 2009 e 2013 com hipótese-diagnóstica de ITU de origem comunitária, de ambos os sexos, independente de raça e idade. As amostras de urina dos pacientes foram encaminhadas ao Laboratório de Microbiologia Clínica da instituição e foram incluídas no estudo as uroculturas com resultado positivo para os agentes etiológicos Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae e Proteus mirabilis. Os antimicrobianos foram agrupados em 5 classes: Aminoglicosídeos, Fluorquinolonas, Sulfonamidas, Beta-lactâmicos e Nitrofurano . Foi realizada análise estatística descritiva e o nível de significância adotado foi de 5%. Resultados e discussão: Os dados demográficos demonstraram prevalência média de 75% de ITU's em mulheres. A idade média dos casos de ITU foi de 40 ± 1,8 anos. A E. coli foi o patógeno mais frequente (83%) nos exames de urocultura para casos de ITU. O relatório estatístico não apontou diferenças significantes entre a variação dos percentuais de resistência bacteriana para E. coli e P. mirabilis, além de não apontar uma tendência linear. Apenas a K. pneumoniae apresentou resultado estatístico significante na análise geral quando foi observado aumento das taxas de resistência e tendência linear crescente. A E. coli apresentou queda do percentual de resistência bacteriana e tendência linear decrescente com relação às fluorquinolonas. Estudo de 2013 da Universidade de São Paulo analisou o consumo extra hospitalar de antimicrobianos e observou queda de 7% do consumo geral, além de queda de 28% da venda de norfloxacino, o que suporta nossos resultados. Conclusão: Sugere-se que a RDC nº 44/2010 influenciou na queda das taxas de resistência bacteriana entre a classe das fluorquinolonas, principalmente o ciprofloxacino, para ITU¿s de origem comunitária / Abstract: Introduction: Community-acquired urinary tract infections (UTIs) are extra intestinal infectious diseases, causing microbial colonization and tissue invasion in the urinary tract. Gram-negative bacteria, especially Escherichia coli, are the most common invasive microorganisms causing UTIs; they are isolated in 80%¿90% of acute infections of community origin. Bacterial resistance is currently a global public health challenge. The intensity of bacterial exposure to antimicrobials is an important parameter affecting the selection and maintenance of resistant bacteria. In 2010, Brazil witnessed several outbreaks of nosocomial infections caused by multidrug-resistant microorganisms such as Klebsiella pneumoniae carbapenemase (KPC). Collegiate Board Resolution (CBR) no. 44 was introduced by the National Health Surveillance Agency with the goal of reducing bacterial resistance to antimicrobials. Objectives: To study the resistance profile of gram-negative bacteria causing community-acquired UTIs and to analyze the influence of the legislation promoting active control of the sale of antimicrobials. Methods: Patients of different gender, ethnicity, and age, admitted at the State University of Campinas Hospital between 2009 and 2013, with a diagnosis of suspected community-acquired UTI were included in the study Patients with urine cultures positive for Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae, and Proteus mirabilis were included in the study. The antimicrobial classes used were aminoglycosides, fluoroquinolones, sulfonamides, beta-lactams, and nitrofuran. Descriptive statistical analysis was performed, and the level of significance was set at 5%. Results and Discussion: Demographic data showed the average prevalence of UTIs among women to be 75%. The average age of the affected individuals was 40 ± 1.8 years. E. coli was the most common pathogen (83%) detected in urine culture tests for UTI cases. The percentage of variation of bacterial resistance was not significant between E. coli and P. mirabilis and did not indicate a linear trend. Only K. pneumoniae showed a statistically significant result in the overall analysis, showing increasing rates of resistance and an increasing linear trend. E. coli demonstrated a decrease in the percentage of bacterial resistance and a decreasing linear trend in fluoroquinolone resistance. The 2013 study from the University of Sao Paulo discussed the extra-hospital antimicrobial consumption, and observed a 7% decline in overall consumption and a 28% decline in the sale of norfloxacin, which supports our results. Conclusion: It is suggested that CBR nº 44/2010 influenced the decline in the rate of bacterial resistance towards fluoroquinolones, especially ciprofloxacinin community-acquired UTIs / Mestrado / Ciencias Biomedicas / Mestra em Ciências Médicas

OBJECTIVE: Older people are vulnerable to zinc deficiency, which may impact upon their mood. This randomised, placebo-controlled, double-blind intervention study aimed to investigate the effect of oral zinc gluconate supplementation (15 mg/d; 30 mg/d; and placebo) on subjective mood (affect) in older Europeans. SUBJECTS: Healthy volunteers (n 387) aged 55-87 years were recruited. SETTING: Volunteers in Rome (Italy; n 108) and Grenoble (France; n 91) were aged 70-87 years and those in Coleraine (Northern Ireland; n 93) and Clermont-Ferrand (France; n 95) were aged 55-70 years. DESIGN: Mood was measured using the Positive and Negative Affect Scale on four occasions per day over 4 d at baseline, 3 and 6 months post-intervention. RESULTS: Mixed ANOVA indicated that neither positive nor negative affect altered in response to zinc (15 mg/d or 30 mg/d) compared to placebo in either the 55-70 years or the >/=70 years age group. CONCLUSIONS: These results suggest that zinc does not benefit mood in healthy older people.

INTRODUÇÃO: Os aminoglicosídeos são freqüentemente usados no berçário e podem ser tóxicos para as células ciliadas cócleo-vestibulares, especialmente para as células ciliadas externas da base da cóclea. As emissões ototacústicas produto de distorção permitem avaliar porções específicas da cóclea, antes mesmo que a sensação auditiva seja alterada, sendo ideais para análise precoce da integridade dessa estrutura auditiva, além de ser indicada para recém-nascidos por serem objetivas. O objetivo deste estudo prospectivo longitudinal é pesquisar a amplitude das emissões otoacústicas produto de distorção, causadas pelo uso de drogas ototóxicas, entre o término da administração e de 15 a 40 dias após seu uso. MÉTODOS: A população foi de recém-nascidos a termo e pré-termo provenientes de berçário e maternidade de um hospital público em Santo André, no período de julho de 2003 a setembro de 2004. A primeira avaliação ocorreu no dia da alta hospitalar. Foram avaliados três grupos: grupo controle com 33 recém-nascidos saudáveis e de termo; grupo de estudo a termo exposto a amicacina e /ou vancomicina com 19 recém-nascidos com mais de 37 semanas e grupo de estudo pré-termo exposto aos mesmos ototóxicos, com 15 recém-nascidos de 32 a 37 semanas. Os recém-nascidos não apresentavam indicadores de risco para deficiência auditiva preconizados pelo JCIH,2000 concomitante à infecção neonatal. Todos os recém-nascidos foram avaliados com idade gestacional corrigida maior que 37 semanas. As amplitudes das emissões otoacústicas dos recém-nascidos em fase de alta hospitalar foram comparadas às obtidas de 15 a 40 dias após a alta. RESULTADOS: As amplitudes das emissões otoacústicas dos recém-nascidos do grupo de estudo pré-termo foram menores que as amplitudes do grupo controle e do grupo de estudo a termo nos dois momentos de teste. As amplitudes das emissões dos recém-nascidos dos três grupos aumentaram no segundo momento de teste. As amplitudes das emissões dos recém-nascidos foram maiores na freqüência de 6.000 Hz e na orelha direita para a freqüência f2 3.000 Hz. As amplitude das emissões do grupo controle no segundo momento de teste foram semelhantes as do grupo de estudo à termo no primeiro momento da pesquisa. CONCLUSÔES: Houve aumento da amplitude das emissões otoacústicas produto de distorção desde a fase de alta até 15 a 40 dias após. A exposição a amicacina e vancomicina nas doses preconizadas pelo Neofax®, 2003/2004 não alterou as amplitudes das emissões nos recém-nascidos sem indicadores de risco concomitante à infecção neonatal. / The amynoglicosides are frequently used in nurseries and may be toxic for the cochleo-vestibular hair cells, specially for the outer cells of the cochlear base. The distortion product otoacoustic emissions allow to evaluate specific portions of the cochlea even before the hearing sensation is altered, and are ideal for the early analysis of this auditory structure integrity, besides being indicated for newborns once they are objective. The aim of this prospective longitudinal study is to research the amplitude of distortion product otoacoustic emissions caused by the ototoxic drugs use, between the end of the administration and from 15 to 40 days after its use. The population studied was composed by term and preterm newborns from a nursery and maternity of a Santo André city hospital, in the period from July 2003 to September 2004. The first evaluation occurred on the hospital discharge day. Three groups were evaluated: control group with 33 term and healthy newborns; term study group with 19 term newborns with more than 37 weeks exposed to amicacin and/or vancomycin; and preterm study group with 15 preterm newborns from 32 to 37 weeks exposed to the same ototoxic. The newborns did not present risk factors for hearing loss according to the JCIH, 2000 concomitant to the neonatal infection. All newborns were evaluated at a corrected gestational age greater than 37 weeks. The otoacoustic emissions amplitudes obtained at the hospital discharge were compared to the ones obtained from 15 to 40 days after the discharge. The results showed that the otoacoustic emissions amplitudes of the preterm study group were smaller than the amplitudes of the control group and the term study group in both moments of the test. The amplitude of the newborns’ otoacoustic emissions increased in the second moment of the test. The amplitudes were higher in the frequency of 6.000Hz and, in the right ear in the frequency f2 3.000 Hz. The otoacoustic emissions amplitudes of the control group in the second moment of the test were similar to the term study group in the first moment of the research. It was concluded that there is an increase of the distortion product otoacoustic emissions amplitude from the discharge moment until 15 to 40 days after, suggesting a maturation of the cochlear structures in the post-natal period, and that the exposure to amicacin and vancomycin on the recommended dose by Neofax®, 2003/2004 did not alter the amplitude of the emissions in the newborns without risk indicators concomitant with neonatal infection.

Modulation of the endocannabinoid system (ECS) is of great interest for its therapeutic relevance in several pathophysiological processes. The CB2 subtype is largely localized to immune effectors, including microglia within the central nervous system, where it promotes anti-inflammation. Recently, a rational drug design toward precise modulation of the CB2 active site revealed the novelty of Pyrrolo[2,1-c][1,4]benzodiazepines tricyclic chemotype with a high conformational similarity in comparison to the existing leads. These compounds are structurally unique, confirming their chemotype novelty. In our continuing search for new chemotypes as selective CB2 regulatory molecules, following SAR approaches, a total of 17 selected (S,E)-11-[2-(arylmethylene)hydrazono]-PBD analogs were synthesized and tested for their ability to bind to the CB1 and CB2 receptor orthosteric sites. A competitive [H]CP-55,940 binding screen revealed five compounds that exhibited >60% displacement at 10 μM concentration. Further concentration-response analysis revealed two compounds, and , as potent and selective CB2 ligands with sub-micromolar activities ( = 146 nM and 137 nM, respectively). In order to support the potential efficacy and safety of the analogs, the oral and intravenous pharmacokinetic properties of compound were sought. Compound was orally bioavailable, reaching maximum brain concentrations of 602 ± 162 ng/g (p.o.) with an elimination half-life of 22.9 ± 3.73 h. Whether administered via the oral or intravenous route, the elimination half-lives ranged between 9.3 and 16.7 h in the liver and kidneys. These compounds represent novel chemotypes, which can be further optimized for improved affinity and selectivity toward the CB2 receptor.

The incidence of postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) is unknown in neuraxial anesthesia for orthopedic surgery. The effect on PONV of adding gabapentin to an evidence-based antiemetic regimen as part of an opioid-sparing analgesic protocol is also unknown in this population. A retrospective analysis of all adults undergoing hip and knee arthroplasty and receiving neuraxial anesthesia in 2017 was conducted. The overall incidence of PONV was assessed. Additionally, PONV incidence was assessed for all combinations of gabapentin, dexamethasone, and/or ondansetron (in addition to propofol infusion) and compared with propofol alone. The PONV risk ratios were estimated, adjusting for age and PONV risk score. The overall incidence of PONV was 14.0%. The addition of gabapentin to propofol was associated with reduced PONV (multivariable risk ratio [mRR], 0.6; 95% CI, 0.4-1.0) vs propofol alone. Dexamethasone with propofol was associated with reduced PONV (mRR 0.6; 95% CI, 0.4-1.1) vs propofol alone, although not statistically significant. The addition of both gabapentin and dexamethasone to propofol was associated with stronger reduction in PONV (mRR 0.3; 95% CI, 0.1-0.7) vs propofol alone. Adding ondansetron to propofol showed little benefit. Gabapentin and dexamethasone are effective in reducing PONV in patients undergoing knee and hip arthroplasty with neuraxial anesthesia.

Moricizine is a novel phenothiazine antiarrhythmic agent that depresses the activity of ectopic foci, has a low incidence of adverse effects relative to other agents, and is useful in treating pediatric atrial ectopic tachycardia. A study was conducted to determine the pharmacokinetics of moricizine in children after oral administration. Moricizine was isolated from frozen serum obtained from four male patients (ages 7, 8, 9, and 18 years) receiving the drug for supraventricular tachycardia and analyzed by high-performance liquid chromatography with ultraviolet detection according to an established protocol. Peak serum levels were between 400 and 2000 ng/mL. Elimination of moricizine did not follow simple single-compartment pharmacokinetics. In three patients we observed an increase or slower decline in blood level occurring after 4 hours. Because of the paroxysmal nature of the tachycardias, decreases in patient heart rate could not be correlated with moricizine blood level. These results suggest that the pediatric pharmacokinetics of moricizine excretion are complex and may differ from those seen in adults.
