Paracoccidioidomicose e gastrectomia

Abstract

Resumo Em revisão feita em protocolos de 757 casos de paracoccidioidomicose foram encontrados 11 (1,5%) pacientes que previamente haviam sido submetidos à gastrectomia. É sugerido que à semelhança do que ocorre na tuberculose, os indivíduos submetidos à gastrectomia apresentam maior risco para o desenvolvimento dessas infecções. Palavras-chaves: Tuberculose. Paracoccidioidomicose. Gastrectomia. Doença granulomatosa infecciosa.Abstract In a review of the clinical records of 757 cases of paracoccidioidomycosis 11 (1.5%) of the patients had been previously submitted to gastrectomy. It is suggested that after gastrectomy individuals present a higher risk for the development of such infections, similar to that which occurs in tuberculosis.

Effects of the interactions among macronutrients, plant age and photoperiod in the composition of Hyptis suaveolens (L.) Poit essential oil from Alfenas (MG), Brazil

“…The plants grown in Alfenas presented spathulenol (8.43-24.70%) as the essential oil major component, followed by globulol (6.89-14.55%) and dehydroabietol (3.84-11.80%). Among the essential oil chemotypes reported in the literature, the most similar to the plants grown in Alfenas, with respect to the detection and percentages of the main compounds, was reported by Silva et al, 17 for greenhouse-cultivated plants from Viçosa, Brazil.…”

“…12 The essential oil of this species is composed of monoterpenes and sesquiterpenes, and it has been the subject of several investigations. 9,[13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20] The essential oil from this species has shown a high level of variability in terms of quantity and composition and this has been attributed to the geographic origin or to genetic variability of the plants investigated. 16,18,19 In a study carried out to identify the reasons for the variability in essential oil composition of H. suaveolens, edaphic factors and growth phases (vegetative, flowering and fruiting stage) have shown to present a significant correlation to the essential oil composition.…”
