Morais,Pedro Henrique Alves de; Farias,Igor Eduardo Caetano de; Ribeiro,Vinícius Lacerda; Silva,Luiz Eduardo Almeida; Carneiro,Fabiana PiraniPURPOSE: To evaluate the effects of acute alcohol intoxication on healing of colonic anastomosis. METHODS: Thirty-six rats were allocated into two groups. Animals in the alcohol (A) were given 2 mL of ethanol diluted in 0.9% saline solution to a concentration of 40% by gavage immediately before anesthesia, whereas control (C) animals received 2 mL of 0.9% saline solution via the same route. A colonic anastomosi...

Almeida,Simone Gonçalves de; Veiga,Joel Paulo Russomano; Arruda,Sandra Fernandes; Neves,Cibele Ferreira; Siqueira,Egle Machado de AlmeidaINTRODUCTION: Enhanced inflammatory-oxidative status is well established in chronic kidney disease. OBJECTIVE: The objective of this study was to evaluate the oxidative- inflammatory status and iron indices in patients undergoing maintenance hemodialysis (HD) with serum ferritin lower than 500ng/mL, and to correlate them with nutritional status.

Mochel,Alice; Rosa,Tânia Torres; Veiga,Joel Paulo RussomanoVerificou-se a ocorrência de alterações em alguns parâmetros da função renal de indivíduos infectados pelo virus da imunodeficiência humana (HIV), assintomáticos. Foram estudados 47 indivíduos, realizando-se provas funcionais renais: depuração de creatinina endógena, depuração de água livre, depuração osmolar, reabsorção tubular proximal e distal de sódio, excreção fracional de sódio e potássio e pH urinário. O...
Increased osmotic sensitivity for antidiuretic response in chronic chagas' disease
Veiga,Joel Paulo Russomano; Kimachi,Tatsuto; Lima Filho,Euclydes Custódio; Junqueira Jr,Luiz FernandoThe osmotic threshold for attaining the antidiuretic response to hypertonic saline infusion and Progressive dehydration was studied in 31 patients with the chronic form of Chagas' disease and 16 control patients. The chagasic patients exhibited enhanced osmoticsensitivity to the antidiuretic response. This was demonstrated by lower values of the increments in plasma osmolarity sufficient to induce a significant...
