Análise descritiva da histopatologia criptocóccica / Analisis descritiva of the cryptococcal histopatology

Gazzoni, Alexandra Flávia January 2009 (has links)
A identificação histopatológica dos agentes fúngicos é um método excelente de diagnóstico, devido ao fato de que as estruturas são facilmente identificadas por meio das técnicas histoquímicas. Até o momento, não dispõem-se de métodos aceitáveis para quantificação da atividade da infecção. Esta investigação protocola um método de estimativa para atividade biológica da criptococose através da determinação dos índice de brotamentos e carminofílico do Cryptococcus. Objetivos: Descrever os aspectos histopatológicos da criptococose através das técnicas histoquímicas básicas e especiais da micologia. Métodos: Foram avaliados 33 pacientes com diagnóstico histopatológico prévio da criptococose. Resultados: Houve predominância do sexo masculino. A idade variou entre 10 a 81 anos, com média de 45,6 anos. A criptococose é doença definidora dos casos de Aids, sendo considerado seu principal fator predisponente, seguido de transplantes. O trato respiratório é o mais envolvido. O microrganismos tem tropismo para o sistema nervoso central e apresenta disseminação para outros órgãos. Resultados falso-negativos é reflexo da deficiência de material capsular. A mortalidade foi de 36%, sendo o maior índice obervado até os 3 primeiros meses após o diagnóstico. A criptococose apresenta-se sob duas formas, reativa e paucireativa. Na infecção reativa, os organismos foram menos abundantes e predominantemente intracelulares aos histiócitos e às células gigantes. Na infecção paucireativa, há um grande número de leveduras, que proliferam-se extracelularmente e estão associadas a destruição do tecido afetado. Ambos infecções, reativas e paucireativas mostraram grande variação no índice de brotamento. O índice carminofílico foi menor nas infecção reativas, quando comparados a infecção paucireativa. Discussão: A coloração de Hematoxilina-Eosina é usada para visualizar as alterações estruturais das lesões, bem como da reação tecidual. A coloração da prata é a mais utilizada para identificação dos organismos fúngicos como o Cryptococcus. A coloração de Mucicarmim de Mayer detecta a cápsula mucopolissacarídica circundante corada na cor magenta. A coloração de FM oferece diagnóstico diferencial nos casos inconclusivos à coloração de Mucicarmim de Mayer. A quantificação de IB e IC é uma escala útil na interpretação da resposta inflamatória do hospedeiro e atividade biológica da criptococose. / The histopathologic identification from the fungal agents that's a method excellent of diagnostic, due the fact of what the structures são easily identified for histochemical techniques. So far, there is no methods you accepted about to measurement of biologic activity. This investigation aponta to an method of estimate of the activity biologic of cryptococcal infection by determination of the Budding Index and Carminophilic Index of the Cryptococcus. Objectives: Describes the histologic features of cryptococcosis by basic and special histochemical techniques of mycology. Methods: Have been evaluated 33 patients with previous cryptococcosis histopathologic diagnostic. Results: There is an predominance of the males. The age of the patients ranged from 10 to 81 years with a median value 45,4 years. The HIV infection was the main risk factor for disease, followg of transplants. The respiratory tract is the most frequently involved among the organ systems organs. The false-negative latex test are due to capsular deficiency. The moratlity rate was 36%, The high rate of 50% was observed between of 1 to 3 months. The cryptococcal infections is divided into two major histologic categories, reactive and paucireactive, based upon the host reaction. In reactive infection, the organisms were lessa abundant and were predominantly intracellular within histiocytes and giant cells. In paucireactive infection, thre is large numbers of yeats in the lesions, cryptococci proliferate extracellarly within the involved tissues, associated histologically with mucoid degeneration of the surrounding tissue. Both reactice and paucireactive infections showed great variation in Budding Index. The Carminophilic Inded was lower in the reactive infections, when compared with the paucireactive infection. In this Carminophilic Index presented higher measurements.. Discussion: The Hematoxilin-Eosin stain is used to look for strucutural changes of the infectd lesion, as well tissues reactions. The Gomori’s methenamine-silver stain is the more commonly used in identificatifying these organisms. The mucicarmine stain detecting the surrounding mucopolisacharides capsule of the magenta color. The Fontana-Masson staining offers differential diagnostic. The determination of IB and IC is an scale that relied, because it provides an interpretation of the host response and biological activity of the cryptoccosis.

Placencia, Mary Louise 01 January 2002 (has links)
This study provides data suggesting that adolescent girls who receive education and hormonal contraceptive methods at a school-based clinic in the Fontana Unified School District, are more likely to have a signficant improvement in condom use, which improves safe sex practices and reduces the risks of sexually transmitted diseases.

En drottning i många skepnader : Framställningen av drottningen av Saba i rollen som den "andre" / A queen in many guises : The depiction of the Queen of Sheba in the role as “the other”

Johannesson, Arvid January 2022 (has links)
The aim of this essay is to examine how the biblical Queen of Sheba has been depicted in a selection of artworks. The main focus is on how her otherness has been visualized, in relation to King Solomon in particular but also to the Western, European, christian and white self-image at large. The material that has been analyzed comprises the following artworks: Solomon and the Queen of Sheba by Nicholas of Verdun (1181), Procession of the Queen of Sheba; Meeting between the Queen of Sheba and King Solomon by Piero della Francesca (ca 1452-1466), The Visit of the Queen of Sheba to King Solomon by Lavinia Fontana (1599) and The Visit of the Queen of Sheba to King Solomon by Edward Poynter (1890). In examining the artworks Erwin Panofsky's three- step analysis model has been applied in combination with a theoretical framework consisting of postcolonial studies and critical white theories.  The results show that the Queen of Sheba has been depicted in a variety of ways. In the artwork by Nicholas of Verdun, the Queen is black, carrying the symbolic notion of sin; in Piero and Fontanas artworks she is depicted as white. In Piero's depiction, only small signals, such as clothes, marks her status as “the other”, in Fontanas case, her signs of otherness seem in contrast completely absent. Poynters artwork contains a spectacular display of exotic elements and the Queen has been given a sensual appearance in line with the image of the erotic Orient. One conclusion that the author reaches is that, as Edward Said has argued, in attempting to represent “the other” the Occident documents itself. This is also similar to how the dichotomy between black and white is constructed and how whiteness in relation to black individuals in these pictures gathers its strength and is, rather than being neutral, imbued with meaning.

Parent-teacher home response learning journals to foster collaboration in children's literacy development

Vargas Piel, Marie 01 January 2000 (has links)
The purpose of this study was to connect English language learning (ELL) student's school life with their home life. Proposition 227, which prohibited the use of Spanish in the classrooms, has made it difficult to make the home-school connection. Research shows that parents play a vital role in the education of their children but Proosition 227 severely restricted Spanish speaking parents' participation in their child's education. This study demonstrates how the use of home response learning journals empowered parents to participate in their children's literacy and biliteracy development.
