- Cartilage lesions and ankle osteoarthrosis: review of the literature and treatment algorithm,(2014) SANTOS, Alexandre Leme Godoy; DEMANGE, Marco Kawamura; PRADO, Marcelo Pires; FERNANDES, Tulio Diniz; GIGLIO, Pedro Nogueira; HINTERMANN, BeatThe main etiology of ankle osteoarthrosis is post-traumatic and its prevalence is highest amongyoung individuals. Thus, this disease has a great socioeconomic impact and gives rise to significant losses of patients' quality of life. The objective of its treatment is to eliminate pain and keep patients active. Therefore, the treatment should be staged according to the degree of degenerative evolution, etiology, joint location, systemic condition, bone quality, lower-limb alignment, ligament stability and age. The treatment algorithm is divided into non-surgical therapeutic methods and options for surgical treatment. Joint preservation, joint replacement and arthrodesis surgical procedures have precise indications. This article presents a review on this topic and a proposal for a treatment algorithm for this disease.
- Obesity Is a Risk Factor for Significant Carotid Atherosclerosis in Patients Aged 39 to 55 Years(2014) SILVA, Erasmo Simao da; GIGLIO, Pedro Nogueira; WAISBERG, Daniel Reis; JAQUETA FILHO, Richard Geraldo; CASELLA, Ivan Benaduce; PUECH-LEAO, PedroWe compared the prevalence of risk factors between young and old individuals with significant carotid atherosclerosis. We retrospectively reviewed the records of patients aged 39 to 55 years (group I) and aged >= 60 years (group II) with significant atherosclerotic stenosis at the carotid bifurcation. Group I patients had significantly higher values for the following factors: weight, height, body mass index, diastolic pressure, prevalence of current smoking, total and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol and significant lower values for systolic pressure, creatinine, and prevalence of coronary artery disease. Group I patients were more symptomatic and showed higher rates of carotid occlusion and near occlusion. Atherosclerosis of the carotid bifurcation was more aggressive in the younger group, with a higher rate of occlusion and near occlusion. Obesity and smoking were significant risk factors for young patients in this sample.
