Morphologic study(2016) CAPELLI, Fabio de Aquino; PAES, Vitor Ribeiro; MACHADO, Mariangela Marinheiro; MENEZES, Camila Lohmann; SILVA, Pablo Rodrigo Andrade da; SIQUEIRA, Sheila Aparecida Coelho; ALVES, Venancio Avancini Ferreira; MATOS, Leandro Luongo; CERNEA, Claudio RobertoPURPOSE: To quantify the amount of lymph nodes harvested in modified radical neck dissection. METHODS: Cross-sectional anatomical study conducted in 28 non-preserved cadavers. RESULTS: The mean number of lymph nodes found in each nodal level of the 56 modified radical neck dissections performed were: level IA - 1.5 (95% CI: 1.1 - 1.8), level IB - 2.5 (95% CI: 2.1 - 2.9), level IIA - 7.2 (95% CI: 6.0 - 8.5), IIB level - 6.5 (95% CI: 5.5 - 7.4), level III - 6.6 (95% CI: 5.7 - 7.4), level IV - 8.6 (95% CI: 7.1 - 10.1), level V - 11 (95% CI: 9.2 - 12.7), totalizing 43.8 lymph nodes (95% CI: 40.3 - 47.4). CONCLUSION: The results defined a parameter in relation to the minimum recommended nodal yield in a modified radical neck dissection, as well as the number of lymph nodes in each level of this dissection, performed in clinical practice.
- Impact of Three Methods of Ischemic Preconditioning on Ischemia-Reperfusion Injury in a Pig Model of Liver Transplantation(2022) BELON, Alessandro Rodrigo; TANNURI, Ana Cristina Aoun; MOREIRA, Daniel de Albuquerque Rangel; FIGUEIREDO, Jose Luiz; SILVA, Alessandra Matheus da; SERAFINI, Suellen; GUIMARAES, Raimundo Renato; FARIA, Caroline Silverio; ALEXANDRE, Alcione Sanches de; GONCALVES, Josiane Oliveira; PAES, Vitor Ribeiro; TANNURI, UenisBackground Ischemic preconditioning (IPC), either direct (DIPC) or remote (RIPC), is a procedure aimed at reducing the harmful effects of ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury. Objectives To assess the local and systemic effects of DIPC, RIPC, and both combined, in the pig liver transplant model. Materials and methods Twenty-four pigs underwent orthotopic liver transplantation and were divided into 4 groups: control, direct donor preconditioning, indirect preconditioning at the recipient, and direct donor with indirect recipient preconditioning. The recorded parameters were: donor and recipient weight, graft-to-recipient weight ratio (GRWR), surgery time, warm and cold ischemia time, and intraoperative hemodynamic values. Blood samples were collected before native liver removal (BL) and at 0 h, 1 h, 3 h, 6 h, 12 h, 18 h, and 24 h post-reperfusion for the biochemical tests: aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), alkaline phosphatase (ALP), gamma-glutamyl transferase (GGT), creatinine, BUN (blood urea nitrogen), lactate, total and direct bilirubin. Histopathological examination of liver, gut, kidney, and lung fragments were performed, as well as molecular analyses for expression of the apoptosis-related BAX (pro-apoptotic) and Bcl-XL (anti-apoptotic) genes, eNOS (endothelial nitric oxide synthase) gene, and IL-6 gene related to inflammatory ischemia-reperfusion injury, using real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). Results There were no differences between the groups regarding biochemical and histopathological parameters. We found a reduced ratio between the expression of the BAX gene and Bcl-XL in the livers of animals with IPC versus the control group. Conclusions DIPC, RIPC or a combination of both, produce beneficial effects at the molecular level without biochemical or histological changes.
- Basic Life Support: an accessible tool in layperson training(2019) BONIZZIO, Carolina Reis; NAGAO, Christopher K.; POLHO, Gabriel B.; PAES, Vitor R.OBJECTIVES: 1) To evaluate the efficiency of a new method of training laypeople on cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). 2) To assess previous knowledge of the participants. METHODS: Instructors were trained according to the 2015 American Heart Association Guidelines, with emphasis on CPR. Dummies made with PET bottles were used, and a questionnaire was applied to the participants before and after training. Statistical analysis was performed in the R commander program. Participants with incomplete documents were excluded from the study. RESULTS: Out of 101 participants, 96 were included: 69 lay people, 17 health professionals, and ten health students. There was an improvement in the overall performance after training (mean pre: 62.7%, mean post: 75.8%, p <0.01), also present in the following main concepts: ""mouth-to-mouth breathing is not necessary"" (p <0.01), ""risk of contamination"" (p <0.01), ""compression technique"" (p <0.01). The concepts ""recognition of severity"" and ""what is chest compression"" did not improve, but had good pre-test means, 96.8% and 81.2%. There was no statistical difference in the knowledge between the groups (laypeople vs. health professionals and students, pre=0,06 e post=0,33). CONCLUSION: The tools used in training were efficient. However, further studies are necessary to assess the long-term impact of this intervention.
- Advances in diffuse glial tumors diagnosis(2023) GODOY, Luis Filipe de Souza; PAES, Vitor Ribeiro; AYRES, Aline Sgnolf; BANDEIRA, Gabriela Alencar; MORENO, Raquel Andrade; HIRATA, Fabiana de Campos Cordeiro; SILVA, Frederico Adolfo Benevides; NASCIMENTO, Felipe; CAMPOS NETO, Guilherme de Carvalho; GENTIL, Andre Felix; LUCATO, Leandro Tavares; AMARO JUNIOR, Edson; YOUNG, Robert J.; MALHEIROS, Suzana Maria FleuryIn recent decades, there have been significant advances in the diagnosis of diffuse gliomas, driven by the integration of novel technologies. These advancements have deepened our understanding of tumor oncogenesis, enabling a more refined stratification of the biological behavior of these neoplasms. This progress culminated in the fifth edition of the WHO classification of central nervous system (CNS) tumors in 2021. This comprehensive review article aims to elucidate these advances within a multidisciplinary framework, contextualized within the backdrop of the new classification. This article will explore morphologic pathology and molecular/genetics techniques (immunohistochemistry, genetic sequencing, and methylation profiling), which are pivotal in diagnosis, besides the correlation of structural neuroimaging radiophenotypes to pathology and genetics. It briefly reviews the usefulness of tractography and functional neuroimaging in surgical planning. Additionally, the article addresses the value of other functional imaging techniques such as perfusion MRI, spectroscopy, and nuclear medicine in distinguishing tumor progression from treatment-related changes. Furthermore, it discusses the advantages of evolving diagnostic techniques in classifying these tumors, as well as their limitations in terms of availability and utilization. Moreover, the expanding domains of data processing, artificial intelligence, radiomics, and radiogenomics hold great promise and may soon exert a substantial influence on glioma diagnosis. These innovative technologies have the potential to revolutionize our approach to these tumors. Ultimately, this review underscores the fundamental importance of multidisciplinary collaboration in employing recent diagnostic advancements, thereby hoping to translate them into improved quality of life and extended survival for glioma patients.

- Are there differences in the growth adaptation processes of growing and mature organism models of short bowel syndrome?(2018) TANNURI, Ana Cristina Aoun; ROTONDO, Italo Geraldo; BARROS, Guilherme Garcia; VAISBERG, Victor Van; MENDES-NETO, Cicero; PAES, Vitor Ribeiro; COELHO, Maria Cecilia Mendonca; GONCALVES, Josiane; SERAFINI, Suellen; TANNURI, UenisOBJECTIVES: The purpose of this study was to present an experimental model of short bowel syndrome (SBS) in weaning rats and to compare the adaptative mechanisms of the remaining bowel in weaning rats and adult animals by means of morphometric, histologic and molecular methods. METHODS: Twenty-four weaning rats were divided into 3 groups of 8 animals, one control group and two short bowel groups (euthanasia after 4 and 21 days), and were compared with similar adult groups. Morphometric evaluations of the animals and histopathological and molecular studies of the remaining bowel were performed. RESULTS: The weight of young rats increased after enterectomy, whereas that of adult rats decreased after enterectomy (p < 0.0001). The ratio of intestinal length/body weight was significantly higher in weaning rats than in adults (p < 0.002), showing that intestinal growth was more intense in weaning rats. Intestinal resection promoted increased thickness of the small bowel lamina propria (p=0.001) and reduced thickness of the colon lamina propria (p=0.04) in weaning rats relative to those in adults. In addition, intestinal resection promoted increased expression of the Bcl-xl gene (antiapoptotic) in adult animals compared with that in weaning rats (p=0.001). CONCLUSION: Morphometric, histological and molecular differences were shown in the adaptation processes of growing and mature organisms.
- Cardiac and renal effects of liver cirrhosis in a growing animal model(2021) TANNURI, Ana Cristina Aoun; CHAVEZ, Leiliane Somoggi; GUIMARAES, Juliana Xavier; GONCALVES, Josiane de Oliveira; SERAFINI, Suellen; SOUZA, Gabriela Carvalho de; MALHEIROS, Denise Maria Avancini Costa; PAES, Vitor Ribeiro; TANNURI, UenisPurpose: To assess the biochemical, histological, histomorphometric and molecular effects of biliary duct ligation (BDL) induced liver cirrhosis in the heart and kidneys. Methods: Thirty-two weaning rats (21 days old, 50-70 g) underwent BDL and were divided in four groups (euthanasia after two, four, six, and eight weeks, respectively) and compared to control groups. Results: The animals' hearts of group 3 were bigger than those of the control group (p=0.042), including thinner right ventricle wall, decreased internal diameter of ventricles, and increased perivascular collagen deposition in left ventricle, as well as increased interstitial collagen in right ventricle after six weeks. In the kidneys of groups 3 and 4, bilirubin impregnation in the tubules, hydropic degeneration, loss of nuclei and lack of plasmatic membrane limits were noted. Nitric oxide synthase (NOS) gene expressions were higher in group 1 (p=0.008), and endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) gene expressions were elevated in all experimental groups (p=0.008, p=0.001, p=0.022, and p=0.013, respectively). In the heart, a decreased expression of eNOS in group 1 (p=0.04) was observed. Conclusions: Liver cirrhosis leads to histological and histomorphometric alterations in the heart and kidneys, with changes in the NOS and eNOS gene expressions, that may suggest a role in the associated myocardial and renal manifestations.
conferenceObject KI-67 EXPRESSION CAN BE A MARKER OF AGRESSIVENESS OF DUODENAL DISEASE IN FAMILIAL ADENOMATOUS POLYPOSIS(2020) SULBARAN, Marianny; CAMPOS, Fabio G.; PAES, Vitor R.; ALVES, Venancio A.; KISHI, Humberto; MOURA, Eduardo G. de; BUSTAMANTE-LOPEZ, Leonardo A.; NAHAS, Sergio C.; RIBEIRO, Ulysses; COUDRY, Renata; SAFATLE, Adriana V.- Primary angiitis of the central nervous system as a mimic of multiple sclerosis: A case report(2022) TIEPPO, Eduardo Macedo de Souza; SILVA, Tomas Fraga Ferreira da; ARAUJO, Roger Santana; SILVA, Guilherme Diogo; PAES, Vitor Ribeiro; RIMKUS, Carolina de Medeiros; TINONE, Gisela; PEREIRA, Samira Apostolos; CALLEGARO, DagobertoBackground: Primary angiitis of the central nervous system is a rare inflammatory vasculopathy and it is a difficult diagnosis to make because of its kaleidoscopic presentation and its multiple mimics, including multiple sclerosis. Case presentation: A 21-year-old men presented a four-year history of progressive gait deterioration. Magnetic resonance imaging of the brain and spine showed hyperintense round-shaped lesions on T2 images, many with contrast enhancement, in supra/infratentorial and spinal segments. He received treatment for multiple sclerosis but presented clinical worsening, and follow-up neuroimaging showed persistent contrast enhancement lesions and a cerebellar hematoma. Brain biopsy was performed and demonstrated inflammatory infiltrations in blood vessels. The patient received 6 monthly schedules of 5 g methylprednisolone and 1 g cyclophosphamide with clinical stabilization. Discussion: Our patient presented a primary angiitis central nervous system according to the Birnbaum and Hellmann proposed criteria. This case reinforces the importance of advancing the differential diagnosis of patients that present red flags in brain neuroimaging. Conclusion: The presence of the micro/macrobleeds and persistent contrast enhancing lesions should raise the suspicion of vasculitis in the differential diagnosis of multiple sclerosis.
- Does Biliodigestive Anastomosis Have Any Effect on the Reversal of Hepatopulmonary Syndrome in a Biliary Cirrhosis Experimental Model?(2019) CORBI, Leonardo Ervolino; TANNURI, Ana Cristina Aoun; BRAZ, Maria Julia de Aro; PAES, Vitor Ribeiro; SBRAGIA, Lourenco; FIGUEIRA, Rebeca Lopes; COSTA, Karina Miura da; COELHO, Maria Cecilia Mendonca; GONCALVES, Josiane Oliveira; SERAFINI, Suellen; TANNURI, UenisBackground Biliary cirrhosis is associated with hepatopulmonary syndrome (HPS), which is related to increased posttransplant morbidity and mortality. Aims This study aims to analyze the pathophysiology of biliary cirrhosis and the onset of HPS. Methods Twenty-one-day-old Wistar rats were subjected to common bile duct ligation and were allocated to two groups: group A (killed 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6 weeks after biliary obstruction) and group B (subjected to biliodigestive anastomosis 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6 weeks after the first procedure and killed 3 weeks later). At the killing, arterial blood was collected for the analyses, and samples from the liver and lungs were collected for histologic and molecular analyses. The gasometric parameters as well as the expression levels of ET-1, eNOS, and NOS genes in the lung tissue were evaluated. Results From a total of 42 blood samples, 15 showed hypoxemia-(pO(2) < 85 mmHg) and 17 showed an increased oxygen gradient [p (A-a)-O-2 > 18 mmHg]. The liver histology revealed increased ductular proliferation after common bile duct ligation, and reconstruction of bile flow promoted decreased ductular proliferation 5 and 6 weeks post-common bile duct ligation. Pulmonary alterations consisted of decreased parenchymal airspace and increased medial wall thickness. Biliary desobstruction promoted transitory improvements 5 weeks after biliary obstruction (increased parenchymal airspace and decreased MWT-p = 0.003 and p = 0.004, respectively) as well as increased endothelin expression levels (p = 0.009). Conclusions The present model showed lung tissue alterations promoted by biliary obstruction. The biliodigestive anastomosis had no clear direct effects on these alterations.
