    Bedbugs (Cimicidae infestation): the worldwide renaissance of an old partner of human kind
    (2011) CRIADO, Paulo Ricardo; BELDA JUNIOR, Walter; CRIADO, Roberta Fachini Jardim; SILVA, Roberta Vasconcelos e; VASCONCELLOS, Cidia
    Bedbugs have been known as a human parasite for thousands of years, but scientific studies about this insect are recent and limited. Cimex lectularius, the common bedbug, was a well-known parasite in human dwellings until the end of the Second World War. Nowadays, bedbugs are considered uncommon in the industrialized world. Anecdotal reports suggest that bedbugs are getting more common in the United States, Canada, and United Kingdom. In Brazil, there are few reports about bedbug infestations in the literature. The aim of this article was to alert physicians, especially in Brazil, about this ectoparasitosis, including aspects of the bedbug biology, their parasitism in human host, treatment and prophylaxis.

    Identification of fungi species in the onychomycosis of institutionalized elderly
    (2013) VASCONCELLOS, Cidia; PEREIRA, Carolina Queiroz Moreira; SOUZA, Marta Cristina; PELEGRINI, Andrea; FREITAS, Roseli Santos; TAKAHASHI, Juliana Possato
    BACKGROUND: Superficial fungal infections are caused by dermatophytes, yeasts or filamentous fungi. They are correlated to the etiologic agent, the level of integrity of the host immune response, the site of the lesion and also the injured tissue. OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this study is to isolate and to identify onychomycosis agents in institutionalized elderly (60 years old +). METHODS: The identification of the fungi relied upon the combined results of mycological examination, culture isolation and micro cultures observation under light microscopy from nail and interdigital scales, which were collected from 35 elderly with a clinical suspicion of onychomycosis and a control group (9 elderly with healthy interdigital space and nails). Both groups were institutionalized in two nursing homes in Sao Bernardo do Campo, SP, Brazil. RESULTS: The nail scrapings showed 51.40% positivity. Of these, dermatophytes were found in 44.40% isolates, 27.78% identified as Trichophyton rubrum and 5.56% each as Trichophyton tonsurans, Trichophyton mentagrophytes and Microsporum gypseum. The second more conspicuous group showed 38.89% yeasts: 16.67% Candida guilliermondii, 11.11% Candida parapsilosis, 5.56% Candida glabrata, and 5.56% Trichosporon asahii. A third group displayed 16.70% filamentous fungi, like Fusarium sp, Aspergillus sp and Neoscytalidium sp (5.56% each). The interdigital scrapings presented a positivity rate of 14.29%. The agents were coincident with the fungi that caused the onychomycosis. In the control group, Candida guilliermondii was found at interdigital space in one person. CONCLUSION: Employing a combination of those identification methods, we found no difference between the etiology of the institutionalized elderly onychomycosis from that reported in the literature for the general population.

    Comparison of Blended Learning With Traditional Dermatology Learning for Medical Students: Prospective Evaluation Study
    (2024) SILVA, Cristiana Silveira; VASCONCELLOS, Cidia; SOUZA, Murilo Barreto; FERNANDES, Juliana Dumet; REGO, Vitoria Regina Pedreira de Almeida
    Background: Novel internet-based applications and associated technologies have influenced all aspects of society, ranging from commerce and business to entertainment and health care, and education is no exception. In this context, this study was designed to evaluate the impact of a dermatology e-learning program on the academic performance of medical students in dermatology.
    Objective: The aim of this study is to develop a dermatology blended-learning course for undergraduate medical students, evaluate the knowledge gained by students exposed to this course, and compare the results to those of traditional teaching methods. Methods: In this prospective study, we evaluated the performance of fourth-semester medical students at the Federal University of Bahia, Brazil. Students who had been in their second year of the medical course in 2019 were considered the control group, while students in their second year in 2020 were considered the blended or hybrid group. The first group attended traditional classes, using printed material (books and handouts), while the second group used our web-based course and e-book as a supplement in a hybrid web-plus-traditional fashion. Neither participants nor evaluators were blinded. The students in both groups were subjected to the same pre- and postcourse face-to-face, multiple-choice, paper-based evaluations, and we compared their performances. The content of the classes was the same for both groups. All didactic activities were developed by a team of certified dermatologists and professors from the university. Results: A total of 129 students were selected and divided into 2 groups: the control group (n=57) and the hybrid group (n=72). The precourse tests did not indicate any difference between the control group (mean score 2.74, SD 1.25) and the hybrid group (mean score 3.2, SD 1.22 SD; P>.05). The hybrid group had better final-term grades (mean 8.18, SD 1.26) than the traditional group (mean 7.11, SD 1.04). This difference was statistically significant (P<.05). Conclusions: This study explores pedagogical possibilities in the field of dermatology teaching for medical school students. The results suggest that the performance of undergraduate students who attended the course with additional e-learning material was superior when compared to the performance of those who participated in the traditional course alone.

    PARAQUAT POISONING: FROM EMERGENCY CARE TO PROGNOSIS
    (2022) SOUZA, Laurindo Pereira de; OLIVEIRA, Janaina Silva Andrade de; AZEREDO, Tailon Gustavo Kuster; ROMANHOLO, Rafael Ayres; VASCONCELLOS, Cidia
    Of all the herbicides used in agriculture worldwide, Paraquat (PQ) has been shown to be the main responsible for serious poisoning in humans. In studies carried out in recent years, there is a large number of fatalities involving accidental or intentional ingestion by PQ. Given this context, this study seeks to identify, through a review of scientific productions, solutions to the guiding question about what are the emergency care and prognoses that promote a low mortality rate and longer survival in patients intoxicated with PC in the last 20 years. This is integrative research using the inclusion criteria: national and international articles, published in the last 20 years (2000 to 2020) in the SciELO, Pubmed and Cochrane databases in English, Portuguese and Spanish, indexed and published in the databases of full data involving PQ poisoning in adult humans. The results show the existence of high rates of poisoning by PQ. The data were presented in table form where the 23 articles were analyzed and explained in a way where it is possible to observe the use of different therapies that seek to assist in the patient's prognosis. The use of some therapies proved to be more effective than others, but despite the many treatments used over the years, mortality rates are still high. Therefore, further research is needed in the search for the production of effective antidotes and therapies.

    Atopy patch test with Aleuroglyphus ovatus antigen in patients with atopic dermatitis
    (2015) LORENZINI, D.; PIRES, M.; AOKI, V.; TAKAOKA, R.; SOUZA, R. L.; VASCONCELLOS, C.
    BackgroundEpicutaneous test made with dust mite antigens. ObjectiveEvaluation of the response of the epicutaneous test withAleuroglyphus ovatus antigen in atopic patients. MethodsWe patch tested 119 individuals, 48 with atopic dermatitis, 50 with respiratory allergy and 21 healthy controls. We compare the positive response frequency to a closed patch test usingAleuroglyphus ovatusantigen in different concentrations and 48 and 96h reading times among those individuals. ResultsSix patients with atopic dermatitis (12.5%) and 4 with respiratory atopy (8.0%) had positive reactions. None of the non-atopic controls had a positive response. As the antigen concentration raised, the number of positive reactions to epicutaneous test raised as well. ConclusionOur data suggest a positive relation between Atopy Patch Test positive responses andAleuroglyphus ovatusantigen concentration, no matter the kind of the atopic clinical expression.

    Surveillance of intradomiciliary contacts of leprosy cases: perspective of the client in a hyperendemic municipality
    (2018) ROMANHOLO, Helizandra Simoneti Bianchini; SOUZA, Eliana Amorim de; RAMOS JÚNIOR, Alberto Novaes; KAISER, Adélia Cileode Gomes Castelo Branco; SILVA, Ismália Oliveira da; BRITO, Aline Lima; VASCONCELLOS, Cídia
    ABSTRACT Objective: To characterize approach methods for intradomiciliary contacts (IdC) of leprosy cases resident in Northern Brazil, during 2001-2012. Method: A cross-sectional and descriptive study in the state of Rondônia. Included IdC of leprosy cases diagnosed/reported in SINAN-Ministry of Health (MS), 2001-2012. A semi-structured instrument was applied to the IdCs, with six interventions: complete dermatological examination; complete neurological examination; BCG vaccination; instructions for return to the health unit; BCG guidance; and guidance to mobilize other contacts. Results: From a total of 459 IdCs included, failure to perform the dermatological examination was reported by 191 people (41.6%) and the neurological examination, by 252 (54.9%); 138 (30.1%) did not have BCG indicated and 122 (26.6%) did not receive guidelines; 257 (56.0%) were not advised to return for a new evaluation/follow-up and 186 (40.5%) were not asked to mobilize other contacts. Conclusion: Despite the favorable indicators of IdC examination coverage in the state, the evaluation process presents patterns that indicate operational quality failures.
