Lymphangiomas are benign neoplasias of lymphatic tissue, extremely rare in the pancreas. Three lymphangioma types exist: capillary, cavernous and cystic. The authors report a case of cystic lymphangioma of the pancreas, with incidental diagnosis to the abdominal ultrasonography on investigation of urinary symptoms in male patient. To the laparotomy upper cystic mass was identified in the pancreas, that was totally resected. The histological examination demonstrated a cystic lymphangioma of the pancreas. The cystic lymphangioma of the pancreas was discovered accidentally, being assintomatic in most of the cases. Treatment of choice is complete resection, otherwise recidive is higher than 50%.
The myokines are substances produced in skeletal muscle by muscle contraction induced by strengthening exercise. They have the ability to act locally on skeletal muscle itself and also in other organs and body tissues. In this review, we discuss relevant aspects presented in scientificliterature with a high degree of evidence signalling Interleukin -6 (IL-6) in muscle hypertrophy induced by strenght training exercises, and also the action arising from its release by skeletal muscle in the bloodstream, exerting effects on other organs and tissues, demonstrating that it has an important role in the interaction of immunoneuroendocrine system and pro and anti-inflammatory effects in the human body.
RESUMOSão chamadas miocinas as substâncias produzidas no músculo esqueléticodevido a contração muscular induzida por exercícios de força. Possuem a propriedade de agir localmente no músculo esquelético, onde são secretadas, e também à distância, em outros órgãos e tecidos do corpo humano. Nesta revisão, serão abordados aspectos relevantes apresentados em pesquisas científicas com alto grau de evidência sobre a sinalização da Interleucina-6 (IL-6) na hipertrofia muscular induzida por treinamento de exercícios de força, e também ainda a ação que exerce na sua liberação pelo músculo esquelético na corrente sangüínea, conseqüentemente então acarretando efeitos em outros órgãos e tecidos, demonstrando importante papel na interação do sistema imunoneuroendócrino, e efeitos prós e anti-inflamatórios sistêmicos.Palavras-chave: IL-6.Hipertrofia Muscular.

The frequency of twin births was established at Santa Maria's University Hospital in the period from 1985 through 1995, when 253 double gestations (1,58%) and 6 triple gestations (0,037%) occurred, in a total of 16006 pregnancies. With the use of Weimberg's method , corrected by James, a frequency of 44,75% of dizygotic and therefore 55,25% of monozygotic twins pairs was found. The sex ratio showed that there were 85,82 males to 100 females among the twins, result that differed significantly of the sex ratio in single pregnancies, where 103,89 males to 100 females occurred. These results are compared with those found in other populations.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
