bookPart Pneumoconiose por Poeira Mista e Silicatoses(2014) LOMBARDI, Elisa Maria Siqueira; CHATE, Rodrigo Caruso; SANTOS, Ubiratan de Paula; TERRA FILHO, MáriobookPart Tabagismo: Impactos na Saúde, Prevenção e Tratamento(2016) SANTOS, Ubiratan de Paula; PRADO, Gustavo Faibischew; MARTINS, Stella Regina; LOMBARDI, Elisa Maria Siqueira- 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography as a noninvasive method for the diagnosis of primary pulmonary artery sarcoma(2011) DIAS, Olivia Meira; LOMBARDI, Elisa Maria Siqueira; CANZIAN, Mauro; SOARES JUNIOR, Jose; VIEIRA, Lucas de Oliveira; TERRA FILHO, MarioPulmonary artery sarcomas are rare, difficult-to-diagnose tumors that frequently mimic chronic pulmonary thromboembolism. We report the cases of two female patients with clinical signs of dyspnea and lung masses associated with pulmonary artery filling defects on chest CT angiography. We performed 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography, which revealed increased radiotracer uptake in those lesions. Pulmonary artery sarcoma was subsequently confirmed by anatomopathological examination. We emphasize the importance of this type of tomography as a noninvasive method for the diagnosis of these tumors.
- Biomarkers related to silicosis and pulmonary function in individuals exposed to silica(2023) LOMBARDI, Elisa M. S.; MIZUTANI, Rafael F.; TERRA-FILHO, Mario; PAULA, Santos Ubiratan deBackgroundThe identification of markers that can facilitate the early diagnosis of silicosis has remained challenging. We evaluated the association of inflammatory markers with the presence of silicosis and lung function impairment in individuals exposed to silica. Methods Individuals exposed and not exposed to silica were assessed by occupational history, clinical findings, lung function, chest imaging findings, and inflammatory markers. Results Among 297 men evaluated, 51 were unexposed controls (G1), 149 were exposed to silica without silicosis (G2), and 97 were exposed to silica with silicosis (G3). Inflammatory marker levels were higher in G3 than in G2 and G1. Platelet/lymphocyte ratio (PLR), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), soluble tumor necrosis factor II (sTNFRII), and macrophage inflammatory protein-4 (MIP-4) were associated with silicosis, and LDH, neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio (NLR), sTNFRII, monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1), soluble vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (sVCAM-1), and fibrinogen were negatively associated with lung function. Conclusion Blood inflammatory markers are associated with silicosis and impaired lung function.

P.- A real-life study of the effectiveness of different pharmacological approaches to the treatment of smoking cessation: re-discussing the predictors of success(2011) PRADO, Gustavo Faibischew; LOMBARDI, Elisa Maria Siqueira; BUSSACOS, Marco Antonio; ARRABAL-FERNANDES, Frederico Leon; TERRA-FILHO, Mario; SANTOS, Ubiratan de PaulaOBJECTIVE: To evaluate the effectiveness of nicotine replacement therapy (NRT), bupropion, nortriptyline and combination therapy and describe factors associated with treatment success. INTRODUCTION: Clinical trials clearly demonstrate the efficacy of pharmacotherapy in smoking cessation. However, it is only after its use in real-life settings that clinical effectiveness and limitations of a treatment are fully known. METHODS: Patients attended a four-session cognitive-behavioral program and received medicines free of charge. Abstinence from smoking was assessed at each visit. RESULTS: A total of 868 smokers (68.8% women) were included. Their mean age was 49.6 years; the amount smoked was 25 cigarettes/day and the Fagerstrom Score was 6.6. Abstinence rates after 6 months and 1 year were 36.5% and 33.6%. In univariate analysis, male gender, age (> 50), higher number of cigarettes smoked, cardiovascular comorbidities, longer interval from the last cigarette and combined treatment of nortriptyline plus NRT were predictive of abstinence, while neuropsychiatric comorbidities and the answer ""yes'' to the question ""Do you smoke more often during the first hours after waking'' were correlated with failure. In a multivariate model, predictors of abstinence were neuropsychiatric comorbidities, the answer ""yes'' to the question ""Do you smoke more often during the first hours after waking'' and combined treatment of nortriptyline plus NRT. Male gender and a longer period from the last cigarette were correlated with lower abstinence rate. CONCLUSION: Satisfactory success rates were obtained in a teaching hospital. Factors such as age, daily cigarette consumption, number of pack-years and dependency score were not reliable markers of abstinence. The combination nortriptyline+NRT was independently associated with higher abstinence rates.
