Adiponectin inversely relates to body weight and when its concentratio...

Vasconcelos, João Paulo; Daniele, Thiago Medeiros da Costa; Bruin, Pedro Felipe Carvalhedo de; Forti, Adriana Costa e; Bruin, Veralice Meireles Sales deIntroduction: Daytime sleepiness is an independent factor for increased health care utilization and all cause mortality. Diabetic patients are more likely to be sleepy during the daytime than non-diabetics. Objectives to examine factors influencing the evolution of daytime sleepiness in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) in a two-year follow-up study. Methods: Patients (N=145) aged from 40 to 60 (55.0±3.3) of ...

Methods In patients consecutively submitted to bariatr...
Night eating syndrome : how to treat it?
Pinto, Thisciane Ferreira; Silva, Francisco Girleudo Coutinho da; Bruin, Veralice Meireles Sales de; Bruin, Pedro Felipe Carvalhedo deNight eating syndrome (NES) is characterized by caloric intake ≥ 25% of total daily after dinner and/or by two or more weekly nocturnal awakenings accom - panied by food ingestion. Causes of NES are not entirely clear and seem to involve a desynchronization between the circadian rhythms of food ingestion and sleep, resulting in a delayed pattern of food intake. Estimates of the prevalence of NES in the general ...

Diniz, Deborath Lucia de Oliveira; Barreto, Pedro Rodrigues; Bruin, Pedro Felipe Carvalhedo de; Bruin, Veralice Meireles Sales deObjective: Wake-up stroke (WUS) is defined when the exact time of the beginning of the symptoms cannot be determined, for the deficits are perceived upon awakening. Sleep alterations are important risk factors for stroke and cardiovascular diseases. This study evaluates the characteristics of patients with and without WUS, the presence of daytime sleepiness, and associated risk factors. Method: Patients with is...
Depressive symptoms, quality of sleep, and disease control in women with asthma
Campos, Francineide Lima; Bruin, Pedro Felipe Carvalhedo de; Pinto, Thisciane Ferreira; Silva, Francisco Girleudo Coutinho daPurpose A large number of asthmatic patients, particularly females, present inadequate disease control. Depressive symptoms are reportedly common in asthma and have been related to poor disease control, but the mechanism of this association is still unclear. Poor quality sleep, frequently observed in asthmatics, is also a manifestation of depression and has been related to uncontrolled asthma. This study aimed ...
