  • Phenotype and genotype relationship of Dariers disease

    Introduction – Darier’s disease is a severe hereditary keratinization disorder that is transmitted by an autosomal dominant factor of an unusual type of genodermatosis. The age of onset of symptoms is typically at puberty and equally affects both sexes. Objectives – Cytogenetically show the behavior of the disease in individuals, its clinical and histopathological characteristics. Contribute to a better understanding of the phenotype / genotype relationship of the disease. Methodology – This literature review on the disease was carried out with information searches in Dermatology books, Oral Pathology and published scientific articles. Results – It is believed that the disease is related to a gene, ATP2A2, which is responsible for coding a calcium pump. From this, studies show that some cellular structures, such as desmosomes, are compromised (because chemical signaling depends on the intracellular calcium), with a lack of cohesion between epithelial cells. Conclusion – The phenotype / genotype relationship of this disease is not yet fully understood and the disease represents a challenge for medical genetics.

  • Hospital Do Ursinho Ação Educativa Por Uma Equipe Multiprofissional Em Uma Escola Municipal Do Recife

    A internação traz um sofrimento psíquico para a criança evidenciado pelo impacto na troca da rotina diária pela do hospital, desse modo, criar o vínculo entre o profissional e a criança é de grande importância, pois, assim pode-se minimizar o choque causado pela hospitalização da mesma. Para que esse vínculo seja estabelecido é extremamente relevante à utilização de objetos lúdicos, pois dessa forma fazem com que as crianças se sintam mais confortáveis em indagar o que está incomodando-as e facilitar no procedimento médico, sendo uma assistência mais humanizada e aconchegante. Tal descontração no ambiente hospitalar pode interferir de forma positiva na recuperação de saúde das crianças, fazendo com que sua estadia no hospital se torne menos dolorosa no âmbito psicológico. Dessa forma, em 2003 foi criado o projeto Teddy Bear Hospital (TBH) na Espanha pela IFMSA (International Federation of Medical Studensts’ Associations) tendo como intuito, através da ursoterapia, a redução do medo e ansiedade em casos de internação hospitalar de crianças, ressignificação da imagem do médico, aprimoração do ensinamento médico humanizado. Para atingir esses princípios, faz-se necessária a aplicação de atividades no desenvolvimento sensório-motor e intelectual da criança, como também no processo de socialização, expansão e aperfeiçoamento da criatividade e autoconsciência, pois usa-se através do lúdico para informar a criança, fazendo-a brincar e aprender simultaneamente. O uso do Urso como acompanhante da criança é um dos instrumentos usados para propiciar às crianças um ambiente médico-hospitalar mais agradável, além de proporcionar aos estudantes a oportunidade de interação com o universo infantil, pois o brinquedo tende a deter da criança um sentimento de afetividade e através disso a criança muitas vezes passa a expressar sua singularidade através das perguntas que são direcionadas ao Urso, o que ajuda na expressão dos pensamentos e sentimentos da mesma sobre uma determinada situação.

  • Interruption of Breastfeeding and Obesity: an Integrative Review

    Introduction: Obesity is understood as a global epidemic due to its degree of expansion in the last decades. Early Interruption of breastfeeding, in turn, has a significant influence on the prevalence of obesity in children and adolescents, taunting a high negative impact on public health. Objective: Had as objective to make a literature review to rate the association between duration of breastfeeding, relating it to risks and comorbidities of obesity. Methodology: The applied methodology consists of a review of scientific articles indexed in the databases LILACS, PubMed/ MEDLINE, BDENF and SciELO, using the terms “breastfeeding”, “childhood obesity”, “food introduction” as the descriptor of the article and “nursing” as a word throughout the text without period from 2006 to 2016. Results and Discussion: Several articles on obesity and breastfeeding were found, the review it consisted of 9 scientific papers. Where 06 shows obesity and other metabolic detrimental effects in the child’s body due to lack of breast milk benefits and 03 discuss inadequate nutritional practices, initiated concurrently after the early interruption of breastfeeding. Conclusion: Exclusive breastfeeding up to six months of age, as well as complementary feeding practices, allows the prevention of obesity, promoting the physical and mental health of the infants and the woman who breastfeeds, being extremely important for the growth and development of the child. Therefore, the incentive to breastfeed by the nurse should be intense, so that the children have an adequate and healthy development, since Breastfeeding, included as one of the national priorities, is considered the strategy that most prevents infant morbimortality.

  • The Importance of Dental Activity in Patients Inside in Intensive Therapy Unit

    Introduction: Poor oral hygiene is common in ICU patients, which leads to colonization of the oral biofilm by pathogenic microorganisms, especially respiratory pathogens, which may be a source of nosocomial infection. Once the bacteria present in the mouth can be aspirated and cause aspiration pneumonia. Objective: Review of the literature regarding the importance of dental intervention in patients hospitalized in intensive care units. Methodology: An integrative review was carried out in the LILACS databases and in the SCIELO Virtual Library, using the descriptors: Dental care, Periodontal diseases and ICU. Inclusion criteria were: full-text articles available in Portuguese or English and with a temporal cut between 2013 and 2017. Results: Three articles were selected to meet the criteria for inclusion. Discussion: The oral cavity is the first portal of entry for respiratory pathogenic organisms that cause systemic infections, with pneumonia being one of them. Aspiration pneumonia is the most common type of nosocomial or hospital pneumonia and is an infection of the pulmonary parenchyma caused by different types of etiological agents including bacteria, fungi and viruses. This disease is of high cost and represents a significant cause of morbidity and mortality, diagnosed 48 hours after the patient’s hospitalization in the ICU. The absence of attention with oral hygiene and the reduction of salivary flow results in an increase in the quantity and complexity of dental plaque, which may favor bacterial interaction between native plaque bacteria and respiratory pathogens such as P. aeruginosa and enteric bacilli. Conclusion: The evaluation of the oral condition and the need for dental treatment in hospitalized patients require follow-up by a dental surgeon qualified in hospital dentistry avoiding an increase in the proliferation of fungi and bacteria and, consequently, infections and systemic diseases.
