- Traumatic brain injury pharmacological treatment: recommendations(2018) ANGHINAH, Renato; AMORIM, Robson Luis Oliveira de; PAIVA, Wellingson Silva; SCHMIDT, Magali Taino; IANOF, Jessica NatulineThis article presents the recommendations on the pharmacological treatment employed in traumatic brain injury (TBI) at the outpatient clinic of the Cognitive Rehabilitation after TBI Service of the Hospital das Clinicas da Faculdade de Medicina da Universidade de Sao Paulo, Brazil. A systematic assessment of the consensus reached in other countries, and of articles on TBI available in the PUBMED and LILACS medical databases, was carried out. We offer recommendations of pharmacological treatments in patients after TBI with different symptoms.
- Impact of a cell cycle and an extracellular matrix remodeling transcriptional signature on tumor progression and correlation with EZH2 expression in meningioma(2022) PEREIRA, Benedito Jamilson Araujo; LERARIO, Antonio Marcondes; SOLA, Paula Rodrigues; LAURENTINO, Talita de Sousa; MOHAN, Dipika R.; ALMEIDA, Antonio Nogueira de; AGUIAR, Paulo Henrique Pires de; PAIVA, Wellingson da Silva; WAKAMATSU, Alda; TEIXEIRA, Manoel Jacobsen; OBA-SHINJO, Sueli Mieko; MARIE, Suely Kazue NagahashiOBJECTIVE The authors searched for genetic and transcriptional signatures associated with tumor progression and recurrence in their cohort of patients with meningiomas, combining the analysis of targeted exome, NF2-LOH, transcrip-tome, and protein expressions. METHODS The authors included 91 patients who underwent resection of intracranial meningioma at their institution between June 2000 and November 2007. The search of somatic mutations was performed by Next Generation Sequenc-ing through a customized panel and multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification for NF2 loss of heterozygosity. The transcriptomic profile was analyzed by QuantSeq 3 ' mRNA-Seq. The differentially expressed genes of interest were validated at the protein level analysis by immunohistochemistry.RESULTS The transcriptomic analysis identified an upregulated set of genes related to metabolism and cell cycle and downregulated genes related to immune response and extracellular matrix remodeling in grade 2 (atypical) meningio-mas, with a significant difference in recurrent compared with nonrecurrent cases. EZH2 nuclear positivity associated with grade 2, particularly with recurrent tumors and EZH2 gene expression level, correlated positively with the expres-sion of genes related to cell cycle and negatively to genes related to immune response and regulation of cell motility. CONCLUSIONS The authors identified modules of dysregulated genes in grade 2 meningiomas related to the activation of oxidative metabolism, cell division, cell motility due to extracellular remodeling, and immune evasion that were predic-tive of survival and exhibited significant correlations with EZH2 expression.

conferenceObject Cerebral compliance assessment using Trancranial Doppler(2018) BRASIL, S.; BOR-SENG-SHU, E.; DE-LIMA-OLIVEIRA, M.; NOGUEIRA, R.; SALINET, A.; PAIVA, W.; TEIXEIRA, M.article 3 Citação(ões) na Scopus Gunshot wound to the upper cervical spine leading to instability(2014) PAIVA, Wellingson Silva; AMORIM, Robson Luis; MENENDEZ, Djalma Felipe; BROCK, Roger Schmidt; ANDRADE, Almir Ferreira De; TEIXEIRA, Manoel JacobsenGunshot wounds (GSW) to the cervical spine leading to instability are rare. Also, the presence of vital vascular and neurological structures in the surround area lead to death or severe disability in the vast majority of cases. In this brief report, we present a rare case of C1 fracture due to GSW leading to instability of the atlanto-occipital joint in a neurologically intact patient.- Postoperative Seizure Prophylaxis in Meningioma Resection: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis(2023) BATISTA, Savio; BERTANI, Raphael; PALAVANI, Lucca B.; OLIVEIRA, Leonardo de Barros; BORGES, Pedro; KOESTER, Stefan W.; PAIVA, Wellingson SilvaBackground: Seizures in the early postoperative period may impair patient recovery and increase the risk of complications. The aim of this study is to determine whether there is any advantage in postoperative seizure prophylaxis following meningioma resection. Methods: This systematic review was conducted in accordance with PRISMA guidelines. PUBMED, Web of Science, Embase, Science Direct, and Cochrane were searched for papers until April 2023. Results: Among nine studies, a total of 3249 patients were evaluated, of which 984 patients received antiepileptic drugs (AEDs). No significant difference was observed in the frequency of seizure events between patients who were treated with antiepileptic drugs (AEDs) and those who were not. (RR 1.22, 95% CI 0.66 to 2.40; I-2 = 57%). Postoperative seizures occurred in 5% (95% CI: 1% to 9%) within the early time period (<7 days), and 9% (95% CI: 1% to 17%) in the late time period (>7 days), with significant heterogeneity between the studies (I-2 = 91% and 97%, respectively). In seizure-naive patients, the rate of postoperative seizures was 2% (95% CI: 0% to 6%) in the early period and increased to 6% (95% CI: 0% to 15%) in the late period. High heterogeneity led to the use of random-effects models in all analyses. Conclusions: The current evidence does not provide sufficient support for the effectiveness of prophylactic AED medications in preventing postoperative seizures in patients undergoing meningioma resection. This underscores the importance of considering diagnostic criteria and conducting individual patient analysis to guide clinical decision-making in this context.
- Computed Tomography Angiography for Detection of Middle Meningeal Artery Lesions Associated with Acute Epidural Hematomas(2014) PAIVA, Wellingson Silva; ANDRADE, Almir Ferreira; AMORIM, Robson Luis Oliveira De; BOR-SENG-SHU, Edson; GATTAS, Gabriel; NEVILLE, Iuri Santana; CALDAS, Jose Guilherme; FIGUEIREDO, Eberval Gadelha; TEIXEIRA, Andmanoel JacobsenBackground. The natural history of traumatic aneurysms of the middle meningeal artery (MMA) is not well known, but patients with these lesions are more likely to have delayed bleeds. In this paper, we described a series of patients with epidural hematoma who underwent angiotomography (CTA) for MMA vascular lesion diagnosis. Methods. Eleven patients admitted to our emergency unit with small acute epidural hematoma were prospectively studied. All patients with temporal acute epidural hematomas underwent CTA and cerebral angiogram at our institution for diagnosis of posttraumatic lesions of middle meningeal artery. The findings of angiotomography and digital angiography were reviewed by radiologist and angiographers, respectively, to ensure that the lesions were readily diagnosed without knowing the results of angiotomography and to compare CTA findings with standard angiogram. Results. The causes of head injury were traffic accidents, falls, and aggression. Three of these patients presented traumatic MMA pseudoaneurysm. CT angiography was able to diagnose all of them, with dimensions ranging from 1.5 to 2.8 mm. Conventional angiography confirmed the findings of CT angiography, and the lesions presented with similar dimensions at both methods. Conclusions. We believe that angiotomography can be a useful technique for diagnosis of vascular lesion associated with small epidural hematoma.
- Laser interstitial thermal therapy as an adjunct therapy in brain tumors: A meta-Analysis and comparison with stereotactic radiotherapy(2020) FRANCA, S. A. De; TAVARES, W. M.; SALINET, A. S. M.; TEIXEIRA, M. J.; PAIVA, W. S.Background: Minimally invasive procedures are gaining widespread acceptance in difficult-To-Access brain tumor treatment. Stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) is the preferred choice, however, laser interstitial thermal therapy (LITT) has emerged as a tumor cytoreduction technique. The present meta-Analysis compared current SRS therapy with LITT in brain tumors. Methods: A search was performed in Lilacs, PubMed, and Cochrane database. Patient s demographics, tumor location, therapy used, Karnofsky performance status score before treatment, and patient s outcome (median overall survival, progression-free survival, and adverse events) data were extracted from studies. The risk of bias was assessed by Cochrane collaboration tool. Results: Twenty-five studies were included in this meta-Analysis. LITT and SRS MOS in brain metastasis patients were 12.8 months versus 9.8 months (ranges 9.3-16.3 and 8.3-9.8; P = 0.02), respectively. In a combined comparison of adverse effects among LITT versus SRS in brain metastasis, we found 15% reduction in absolute risk difference (-0.16; 95% confidence interval P < 0.0001). Conclusion: We could not state that LITT treatment is an optimal alternative therapy for difficult-To-Access brain tumors due to the lack of systematic data that were reported in our pooled studies. However, our results identified a positive effect in lowering the absolute risk of adverse events compared with SRS therapy. Therefore, randomized trials are encouraged to ascertain LITT role, as upfront or postoperative/post-SRS therapy for brain tumor treatment. © 2021 National Electronic-Information Consortium (NEICON).
