    Probiotics intake and metabolic syndrome: A proposal (Retracted article. See vol. 39, pg. 85, 2014)
    (2011) BOGSAN, Cristina Stewart B.; FLORENCE, Ana Carolina R.; PERINA, Natalia; BARBUTI, Ricardo C.; NAVARRO-RODRIGUEZ, Tomas; EISIG, Jaime N.; OLIVEIRA, Marice N.
    Probiotics are practical tools to provide the modulation of microbiota. The ingestion of food or ingredients containing anti-inflammatory activity components as probiotics should be useful in obesity control and associated co-morbidities treatment. Metabolic syndrome is a metabolic dysfunction associated with visceral obesity and insulin resistance, in which the alterations in host microbiota interactions play an important role. Besides diet and physical activity, new strategies are necessary to control metabolic syndrome, and as consequence improving quality of life. This article revises the actual knowledge concerning probiotic intake and obesity as a proposal to control metabolic syndrome.

    Eosinophilic esophagitis in patients with typical gastroesophageal reflux disease symptoms refractory to proton pump inhibitor
    (2011) SA, Claudia Cristina de; KISHI, Humberto Setsuo; SILVA-WERNECK, Ana Luiza; MORAES-FILHO, Joaquim Prado Pinto de; EISIG, Jaime Natan; BARBUTI, Ricardo Correa; HASHIMOTO, Claudio Lyioti; NAVARRO-RODRIGUEZ, Tomas
    BACKGROUND: TREATMEN The contribution of eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) to refractory gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) remains unknown. When EoE and GERD overlap, the clinical, endoscopic and histological findings are nonspecific and cannot be used to distinguish between the two disorders. Limited data are available on this topic, and the interaction between EoE and GERD is a matter of debate. AIM: We have conducted a prospective study of adult patients with refractory GERD to evaluate the overlap of reflux and EoE. METHODS: Between July 2006 and June 2008, we consecutively and prospectively enrolled 130 male and female patients aged 18 to 70 years old who experienced persistent heartburn and/or regurgitation more than twice a week over the last 30 days while undergoing at least six consecutive weeks of omeprazole treatment (at least 40 mg once a day). The patients underwent an upper digestive endoscopy with esophageal biopsy, and intraepithelial eosinophils were counted after hematoxylin/eosin staining. The diagnosis of EoE was based on the presence of 20 or more eosinophils per high-power field (eo/HPF) in esophageal biopsies. RESULTS: Among the 103 studied patients, 79 (76.7%) were females. The patients had a mean age of 45.5 years and a median age of 47 years. Endoscopy was normal in 83.5% of patients, and erosive esophagitis was found in 12.6%. Only one patient presented lesions suggestive of EoE. Histological examination revealed > 20 eo/HPF in this patient. CONCLUSION: Our results demonstrated a low prevalence of EoE among patients with refractory GERD undergoing omeprazole treatment.
