- Influence of patent ductus arteriosus on left ventricular myocardial deformation in preterm neonates in the early neonatal period(2020) ALMEIDA, Kellen Freitas Silva de; LEAL, Gabriela Nunes; MORHY, Samira Saady; RODRIGUES, Ana Clara Tude; CERRI, Giovanni G.; DORIA-FILHO, Ulysses; ANDRADE, Jose Lazaro de
- Musculoskeletal pain in obese adolescents(2011) JANNINI, Suely Nobrega; DORIA-FILHO, Ulysses; DAMIANI, Dorval; SILVA, Clovis Artur AlmeidaObjective: To determine the prevalence of pain, musculoskeletal syndromes, orthopedic disorders and using computers and playing videogames among obese adolescents. Methods: This was a cross-sectional study that investigated 100 consecutive obese adolescents and 100 healthy-weight controls using a confidential, self-report questionnaire covering demographic data, sports participation, painful musculoskeletal system symptoms and using computers and playing videogames. The questionnaire's test-retest reliability was tested. Physical examination covered six musculoskeletal syndromes and seven orthopedic disorders. Results: The kappa index for test-retest was 0.724. Pain and musculoskeletal syndromes were equally prevalent in both groups (44 vs. 56%, p = 0.09; 12 vs. 16%, p = 0.541; respectively). Notwithstanding, orthopedic disorders (98 vs. 76%, p = 0.0001), tight quadriceps (89 vs. 44%, p = 0.0001) and genu valgum (87 vs. 24%, p = 0.0001) were significantly more prevalent in obese adolescents than in controls. Median time spent using a computer the day before, on Saturdays and on Sundays were all lower among the obese subjects (30 vs. 60 minutes, p = 0.0001; 1 vs. 60 minutes, p = 0.001; and 0 vs. 30 minutes, p = 0.02; respectively). Obese adolescents were less likely to play handheld videogames (2 vs. 11%, p = 0.003) and there was no difference in the two groups' use of full-sized videogames (p > 0.05). Comparing obese adolescents with pain to those free from pain revealed that pain was more frequent among females (59 vs. 39%, p = 0.048) and was associated with greater median time spent playing on Sundays [0 (0-720) vs. 0 (0-240) minutes, p = 0.028]. Conclusions: Obesity can cause osteoarticular system damage at the start of adolescence, particularly to the lower limbs. Programs developed specifically for obese female adolescents with musculoskeletal pain are needed.
conferenceObject CD8 Positive T Cell Number as Indicator of Prognosis in Children with Relapsed or Primarily Refractory Cancer(2018) ODONE-FILHO, V.; CRISTOFANI, L. M.; TEIXEIRA, R. A.; GIMENEZ, T. M.; SANTOS, A. R.; MARCHI, F. A.; LAPA, R. L.; KREPISCHI, A. C.; NOVAK, L. M.; BRUMATTI, M.; PEREIRA, P. L.; AZAMBUJA, A. M.; DORIA-FILHO, U.; CORNACHIONNI, A. L.; VINCE, C. S.; NEVES, N. H.- Long-term home oxygen therapy in children and adolescents: analysis of clinical use and costs of a home care program(2011) MUNHOZ, Andrea S.; ADDE, Fabiola V.; NAKAIE, Cleyde M. A.; DORIA FILHO, Ulysses; SILVA FILHO, Luiz V. R. F.; RODRIGUES, Joaquim C.Objectives: To describe the clinical and laboratory characteristics of patients on long-term home oxygen therapy followed up by the home care program of Hospital das Clinicas, School of Medicine, Universidade de Sao Paulo, during a period of 8 years, and to compare groups with and without secondary pulmonary hypertension. To estimate the cost of the program using oxygen concentrators versus oxygen cylinders provided by the hospital. Methods: A descriptive, retrospective cohort study of patients on long-term home oxygen therapy followed up from 2002 to 2009 at the Unit of Pulmonology, Children's Institute, Hospital das Clinicas, School of Medicine, Universidade de Sao Paulo. Results: We studied 165 patients, of whom 53% were male, with the following medians: age at the beginning of oxygen therapy - 3.6 years; duration of oxygen therapy - 7 years; and survival time after beginning of oxygen therapy - 3.4 years. The main diagnoses were: cystic fibrosis (22%), bronchopulmonary dysplasia (19%), and bronchiolitis obliterans (15%). Of the 33 patients who underwent spirometry, 70% had severe obstructive lung disease. Echocardiogram was performed in 134 patients; 51% of them had secondary pulmonary hypertension. There was a statistically significant association between pulmonary hypertension and need of higher oxygen flows (chi-square, p = 0.011), and pulmonary hypertension and longer duration of oxygen therapy (Logrank, p = 0.0001). There was no statistically significant difference between survival time after the beginning of oxygen therapy and pulmonary hypertension. The average monthly costs of the program were: US$ 7,392.93 for concentrators and US$ 16,630.92 for cylinders. Conclusions: Long-term home oxygen therapy was used to treat different chronic diseases, predominantly in infants and preschool children. There was a high frequency of pulmonary hypertension associated with longer periods of oxygen use and greater oxygen flow, without association with survival rate. The use of concentrators instead of cylinders may reduce costs significantly.
- Quality of life of pediatric patients with lower urinary tract dysfunction and their caregivers(2011) LOPES, Marcos; FERRARO, Alexandre; DORIA FILHO, Ulysses; KUCKZINSKI, Evelyn; KOCH, Vera H.The interest in quality of life (QoL) studies has increased as they are useful instruments to evaluate and compare medical care delivery and the impact of health interventions. The perception of QoL differs among individuals. Its characterization is especially difficult in the pediatric age group as each developmental stage presents specific demands. The prevalence of congenital lower urinary dysfunction is high and their management changes the daily routine of the patients and their families. In a cross-sectional study, we evaluated the QoL of 28 children and adolescents with urinary malformations and their caregivers using the Autoquestionnaire Qualit, de Vie Enfant Imag, (AUQUEI) and Short-Form 36 (SF-36), respectively, and compared the results with 38 healthy control age-paired children/caregivers. Four questions were added to patients' questionnaire to evaluate issues related to their urological management. Our results show lower AUQUEI total scoring in the patients' group (p < 0.0213, Fisher's exact test), who also present problems in dealing with social aspects, such as being at classroom, manifest negative feelings in relation to diurnal urinary losses but seem to be well adapted to intermittent urethral catheterization. A tendency for worse QoL scores in the patients' group caregivers was detected in the SF-36 pain and physical limitation domains.
