Influência de um Protocolo de Mobilização Precoce no comportamento autonômico d...
Silveira,Bárbara Oliveira; Melo,Jade Lara de; Neri,Graziella Paula de Oliveira; Gregório,Michele Lima; Godoy,Moacir Fernandes deResumo Fundamento: Gráficos de recorrência (GR) permitem uma análise não linear da variabilidade de frequência cardíaca (VFC) e fornecem informações sobre o sistema nervoso autônomo (SNA). Objetivos: Avaliar se a mobilização precoce em pacientes submetidos a angioplastia coronária transluminal percutânea (ACTP) influencia os componentes quantitativos e qualitativos dos GR. Métodos: Um total de 32 participantes ...
Respiratory and muscular effects of a physiotherapy protocol carried out during...
Simões,Mayara; Gregório,Michele Lima; Godoy,Moacir Fernandes de; Accioly,Marilita FalângolaAbstract Aim: To analyze whether the proposed physiotherapy protocol during hemodialysis (HD) increases knee extensor muscle strength, palmar grip strength, respiratory muscle strength, lung function, and functional capacity of individuals with Chronic Renal Insufficiency (CRI) on HD. Methods: A preliminary results study, in which physical therapy intervention was performed in 11 subjects (49.2 ± 8.6 years) wit...
Surgical Treatment for Congenital Heart Defects in Down Syndrome Patients
Santos,Fernando Cesar Gimenes Barbosa; Croti,Ulisses Alexandre; Marchi,Carlos Henrique De; Murakami,Alexandre Noboru; Brachine,Juliana Dane PereiraAbstract Objective: To analyze data related to surgical treatment in patients with congenital heart defects (CHD) and Down syndrome (DS) based on information from International Quality Improvement Collaborative Database for Congenital Heart Disease (IQIC). Methods: Between July 1, 2010 and December 31, 2017, 139 patients with CHD and DS underwent surgery at Hospital de Base and Hospital da Criança e Maternidade...
Effect of Preoperative Creatinine Levels on Mortality after Coronary Artery Byp...
Oliveira,Marcos Aurélio Barboza de; Santos,Carlos Alberto dos; Brandi,Antônio Carlos; Dotta,Ana Helena; Botelho,Paulo Henrique HusseiniAbstract Introduction: Renal function is an independent risk factor for mortality among on-pump coronary bypass grafting (ONCABG) patients. This association is well known in the international literature, but there is a lack of knowledge of how admission creatinine (AC) levels modulate each cardiovascular risk factor. Objective: The aim of this paper was to assess the effect of different AC levels on mortality a...
Evaluation of Cardiac Autonomic Modulation Using Symbolic Dynamics After Cardia...
Moura-Tonello,Sílvia Cristina Garcia de; Carvalho,Vitor Oliveira; Godoy,Moacir Fernandes de; Porta,Alberto; Leal,Ângela Merice de OliveiraAbstract Objective: To characterize the behavior of cardiac autonomic modulation in individuals with different times after orthotopic heart transplantation (HTx) using symbolic dynamics analysis. Methods: Sixty patients were evaluated after HTx. We recorded their instantaneous R-R intervals (RRi) by cardiac monitor Polar® RS800CX™ (Polar Electro Oy, Kempele, Finland) for 10 minutes. The same sequence of RRi wit...
Genetic variants related to angiogenesis and apoptosis in patients with glioma
Calastri,Maria Clara Jessica; Rodrigues,Nicolas Luz Toledo Ortega; Hatori,Gabriela; Gregório,Michele Lima; Brancati,Camila Ive Ferreira OliveiraABSTRACT Background Glioma, the most common primary malignant brain tumor in adults, is highly aggressive and associated with a poor prognosis. The objectives of this study were to evaluate the association of genetic polymorphisms related to angiogenesis and apoptosis with gliomas, as well as comorbidities, lifestyle, clinical profile, survival and response to treatment (temozolomide [TMZ] and radiotherapy [RT]...
Correlation between degree of autonomic nervous system impairment and quality o...
Borin,Flávio Henrique; Gregório,Michele Lima; Martins,Micael Borin; Godoy,Moacir Fernandes de<p><b>INTRODUCTION:</b> The increase in the world’s elderly population in recent decades calls for research on quality of life during the aging process. Heart rate variability (HRV) evaluates the modulation of the autonomic nervous system (ANS) and indicates the heart’s ability to respond to multiple physiological and environmental stimuli, as well as to disease.<br> <b>OBJECTIVE:</b> To investigate the perceiv...
Recurrence Plots: a New Tool for Quantification of Cardiac Autonomic Nervous Sy...
Takakura,Isabela Thomaz; Hoshi,Rosangela Akemi; Santos,Márcio Antonio; Pivatelli,Flávio Correa; Nóbrega,João Honorato; Guedes,Débora LinharesAbstract Objective: To evaluate a possible evolutionary post-heart transplant return of autonomic function using quantitative and qualitative information from recurrence plots. Methods: Using electrocardiography, 102 RR tachograms of 45 patients (64.4% male) who underwent heart transplantation and that were available in the database were analyzed at different follow-up periods. The RR tachograms were collected ...
B-Type Natriuretic Peptide as a Predictor of Short-Term Mortality in On-Pump Co...
Murad Junior,Jamil Alli; Machado,Maurício Nassau; Fernandes,Marcio Pimentel; Soares,Marcelo José Ferreira; Grigolo,Ingrid HelenAbstract Objective: The present study refers to a determination of the preoperative B-type natriuretic peptide is a predictor of short-term all-cause mortality in patients undergoing on-pump coronary artery bypass graft surgeries. Methods: Two hundred and twenty-one patients undergoing on-pump coronary artery bypass graft surgeries were evaluated prospectively during a 30-day postoperative follow-up period. Ser...
Infliximab in patients with psoriasis and other inflammatory diseases: evaluati...
Antonio,João Roberto; Sanmiguel,Jessica; Cagnon,Giovana Viotto; Augusto,Marília Silveira Faeda; Godoy,Moacir Fernandes deAbstract: Background: Psoriasis is immune-mediated chronic inflammatory disease with preference for skin and joints. The skin involvement occurs by hyperproliferation and abnormal differentiation of keratinocytes. It is associated with comorbidities, mainly related to the clinical manifestations of the metabolic syndrome. Increased TNF-alpha expression (TNF-α) is related to its pathophysiology. Infliximab is an...
