Efeito da estimulação transcraniana de corrente contínua nos sintomas vasomotores do climatério: estudo piloto randomizado, cego, em paralelo, controlado com placebo-shamPereira, Carolina de Castro January 2014 (has links)
Introdução: Climatério, ou transição menopáusica, é definido como o período onde ocorre a mudança de vida reprodutiva para não reprodutiva, com extensão de duração variável. Durante esse período, e após o estabelecimento da menopausa, é comum o surgimento de diversos sintomas que expressam o esgotamento dos folículos ovarianos; sendo os sintomas vasomotores, ou fogachos, os mais comumente relatados pelas mulheres. Atualmente, Terapia Hormonal, bem como os Inibidores Seletivos da Recaptação da Serotonina, têm sido empregadas na tentativa de melhorar estes sintomas. As medicações não hormonais, apesar de apresentarem melhores respostas que placebo, ainda demonstram pouco impacto clínico na redução dos sintomas vasomotores. Esta lacuna permite avaliar outras alternativas terapêuticas, como a Estimulação Transcraniana por Corrente Direta (ou tDCS, do inglês transcranial direct current stimulation). Objetivo: avaliar a diminuição no número de episódios de sintomas vasomotores em pacientes tratadas com aplicação de tDCS e placebo-sham, além de testar os efeitos do tDCS sobre o processo de neuroplasticidade, através da medida sérica de BDNF. Métodos: foram selecionadas nove pacientes pós-menopausicas com queixa de ao menos 5 episódios diários de sintomas vasomotores. Estas pacientes foram randomizadas para um dos grupos, tDCS (tratamento ativo) ou placebo-sham. O tratamento consistiu na aplicação de sessões diárias de estimulação com corrente elétrica de 02 mili Ampere, pelo período de dez dias consecutivos. Após uma semana e um mês de tratamento, as pacientes registravam o número de fogachos ao dia, e respondiam ao Women´s Health Questionaire (WHQ). No primeiro e no último dia de tratamento, foram coletadas amostras sanguíneas para dosagem de BDNF. Resultados: comparando o número médio de sintomas vasomotores (fogachos) ao dia, durante o período de sete dias, não houve diferença significativa entre os dois grupos, assim como nos níveis de BDNF e no WHQ. Conclusão: no momento, não podemos descartar o uso de tDCS no tratamento dos sintomas vasomotores, em virtude de pequeno número de pacientes avaliadas nesta pesquisa. Será mantido o acompanhamento das pacientes avaliadas até esse momento, e o tratamento será aplicado em novas mulheres com sintomas vasomotores. / Background: Climacteric or Menopausal Transition is defined as the time period where there is a change to non-reproductive reproductive life, with extension of variable length. During this period, and after the establishment of Menopause and non-functioning ovarian, the appearance of various symptoms that express the depletion of ovarian follicles is common; among these symptoms, the most frequently reported by women are vasomotor symptoms or hot flashes. In addition to hormonal therapy, other medications have been employed in an attempt to improve these symptoms; although they present better results than placebo, yet have little clinical impact in reducing vasomotor symptoms. Therefore, this gap allows the evaluation of alternative therapies, such as Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (tDCS). Objective: evaluate the decrease in the number of episodes of vasomotor symptoms in patients treated with tDCS and placebo –sham, beyond testing the effects of tDCS on the neuroplasticity process through measurement of serum BDNF. Methods: nine post-menopausal women with at least 5 episodes of hot flashes/day were selected. These patients were randomized to one of the groups, tDCS (active treatment) or placebo-sham. The treatment consisted in daily application sessions of stimulation with electrical current of 02 mA, for ten consecutive days. After one week and one month of treatment, patients recorded the number of hot flashes per day, and answered the Women's Health Questionnaire (WHQ). In the first and in the last day of treatment, blood samples were collected for measurement of BDNF. Results: Comparing the average number of vasomotor symptoms (hot flashes) per day during the period of seven days, there was no significant difference between the two groups, and there were no differences in the levels of BDNF and WHQ. Conclusion: we can not rule out the use of tDCS in the treatment of vasomotor symptoms, because of the small number of patients evaluated in this study. Monitoring of these patients will be kept, and treatment will be applied to other women with vasomotor symptoms.

The Effect of Aerobic Exercise Versus Inactivity on Nitric Oxide Concentration and Synthesis in an Elderly PopulationBurton, Samantha 01 December 2015 (has links)
CONTEXT: Nitric Oxide (NO) is an endothelial-derived vasoactive molecule that causes an increase in blood flow and oxygen delivery to tissue. A reduction in NO bioavailability has been found to occur in adults over the age of 60 and can be reversed pharmacologically by improving NO synthase (NOS) activity. Reversing these age-related changes with alternative interventions, such as aerobic exercise, has shown some promising results. OBJECTIVE: To quantify blood NO-bioavailability (as measured by blood nitrite levels) in a population of aerobically trained elderly men and compare these data to a group of age-matched, inactive individuals. In addition, we measured the cutaneous vasodilator response to local skin heating as a bioassay for NO-mediated cutaneous dilation. SETTING: BYU Human Performance Research Center (HPRC). PARTICIPANTS: 16 healthy elderly men (age = 66 ± 7.07 years) were divided into two groups based on physical fitness levels and estimated VO2max in ml O2•kg-1•min-1 (Trained = 39.1 ± 1.21, Untrained = 29.0 ± 2.70). INTERVENTIONS: A blood sample was collected and analyzed for NO. A microdialysis study was performed and dialysate was collected at 32°C and at 42°C. During the heating process, skin blood flow (skin vasomotor activity) was monitored and reported as cutaneous vascular conductance (CVC). MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Whole blood nitrite concentrations, pre- and post-heat nitrite concentrations, and CVCmax were compared between trained and untrained groups. RESULTS: Whole blood nitrite concentration was similar in trained subjects and untrained subjects averaging 25.77 ± 6.75 and 21.43 ± 7.20 µM, respectively (F1,13 = 0.19; P = 0.6671]. Local skin heating had no impact on the concentration of nitrite in dialysate samples ([NOx]dialysate F1,26 = 0.01; P = 0.7567). In addition, the plateau in % CVCmax following 30 minutes of local heating was similar for trained and untrained subjects averaging 67.7 ± 5.8 and 68.0 ± 6.2 % CVCmax, respectively (F1,13 = 0.00; P = 0.9673). CONCLUSIONS: The results of this study indicate that age-mediated reductions in whole blood NO-bioavailability and decrements in NO-mediated cutaneous vasodilation during local heating were similar in aerobically fit and sedentary adults 60 years old or older. We conclude that a commitment to aerobic fitness was unable to overcome the age-related dysfunction of the NOS system.
