Background. Currently, vascular access is one of the most important aspects in specific and accompanying treatment of cancer patients regardless of their age and sex. Partially implanted venous catheters previously described by Hickman were widely applied all over the world. The introduction of completely implanted venous port-systems revolutionized health care delivery and improved the quality of life in patients with oncological diseases. A fully implanted venous port consists of a silicone catheter which distal tip is connected to a port tank implanted subcutaneously. Such a design allows providing safe and multiple adequate vascular accesses regardless of the patient’s clinical state.Case Report. We present a clinical case of a 10-year-old patient diagnosed with medulloblastoma of the cerebellopontine angle and the left cerebellar hemisphere. The case described spontaneous detachment of an implanted venous port catheter and its migration to the venous heart in a patient who underwent chemotherapy by venous access provided through implantation of the venous port.Conclusion. Our clinical case demonstrated a rare and potentially extremely dangerous noninfectious complication associated with the use of venous port-systems. Implanted systems require washing 1–2 times per month with heparinized solutions or solutions containing taurolidine when they are not used. Periodic chest radiographs can reveal integrity alterations of the system. Any implanted system should be removed when it is not used, or it should be monitored on a regular basis.

The aim of the work is to study the daily practice of prescribing drugs at the outpatient stage of medical care and to analyze the data obtained based Beers 2012 criteria and STOPP / START version 1. Materials and Methods. The authors analyzed drug prescriptions for 150 outpatients, who were over 65 years old. Results. Cardiovascular diseases, diseases of the osteo-articular system and type 2 diabetes mellitus prevailed in the morbidity structure of patients. Oncological diseases, thyroid diseases, bronchial asthma, cataracts, pancreatitis, anemia, peptic ulcer disease were diagnosed in some patients. All drug prescriptions during the year were taken into account. Simultaneous prescription of more than 4 drugs was considered polypharmacy. All the patients were monitored for a year since drug prescriptions had been made. Death was taken as the end point. The authors considered drug therapy to be irrational according to Beers and STOPP / START criteria. The therapeutic value of drug prescription audit based on restrictive lists was evaluated. Conclusions. Polypharmacy is observed in more than half of elderly outpatients. According to Beers 2012 criteria, irrational drug therapy was detected in 20 % of elderly patients, according to STOPP and START lists – in 43.3 % and 66.6 %, respectively. The lack of drug prescriptions in accordance with START criteria is associated with increased mortality of elderly patients.

Цель работы – изучение ежедневной практики назначения лекарственных препаратов на амбулаторном этапе медицинской помощи и анализ полученных данных на основе критериев ограничительных перечней Бирса 2012 г. и STOPP/START версии 1. Материалы и методы. Проанализированы лекарственные назначения 150 пациентам старше 65 лет, находившимся на амбулаторном лечении. Результаты. В структуре заболеваемости пациентов преобладали сердечно-сосудистые заболевания, а также болезни костно-суставной системы и сахарный диабет 2-го типа. Онкологические заболевания, заболевания щитовидной железы, бронхиальная астма, катаракта, панкреатит, анемия, язвенная болезнь диагностированы у единичных больных. Учитывались все лекарственные назначения в течение года. За полипрагмазию принималось одновременное назначение более 4 препаратов. В течение последующего года отслеживалось состояние пациентов, за конечную точку принята смерть. Выявлена нерациональная лекарственная терапия на основе критериев Бирса и STOPP/START. Оценена терапевтическая значимость аудита лекарственных назначений по ограничительным перечням. Выводы. Полипрагмазия наблюдается более чем у половины амбулаторных пациентов пожилого возраста. На основе критериев ограничительных перечней Бирса 2012 г. нерациональная лекарственная терапия выявлена у 20 % пациентов пожилого возраста, на основе критериев STOPP и START – у 43,3 и 66,6 % соответственно. Отсутствие назначений лекарств в соответствии с критериями START ассоциировано с увеличением смертности пациентов пожилого возраста.

Objetivo: O objetivo desse estudo foi de identificar as dificuldades do profissional enfermeiro frente à criança com câncer, verificar se há preparo adequado para atender às necessidades de uma criança com doenças oncológicas; e qual a forma de enfrentamento utilizada pelo profissional diante das dificuldades encontradas, no atendimento a essa criança. Metodologia: Trata-se de uma pesquisa qualitativa, objetivando identificar quais dificuldades o profissional de enfermagem enfrenta no cuidado de criança com câncer e de seus familiares, os mecanismos de enfrentamento dessas dificuldades no atendimento dos mesmos e se há preparo adequado dos mesmos para atender as necessidades dessas crianças. Os sujeitos foram quatro enfermeiras que cuidam ou já cuidaram de crianças com câncer no Hospital Bom Pastor – Varginha/MG. A coleta de dados foi desenvolvida por uma entrevista semiestruturada. Resultados: Constatou-se que as dificuldades são: cuidar de criança em estado grave, seus pais e o envolvimento emocional. Aos meios de enfrentamento referem à oração e a distração. Quanto ao preparo do profissional referem despreparo para atuar nesta área. Conclusão: Conclui-se que há falta de preparo aos profissionais, embora os mesmos cuidem com humanização dessas crianças.  Palavras-chave: Enfermeiro; Crianças; Câncer.   ABSTRACT: Objective: The aim of this study was to identify the difficulties of the professional nurse when taking care of a child with cancer, check the adequate preparation to meet the needs of children with oncological diseases; and what form of coping with the situation the professionals used when taking care of this child. Methodology: This was a qualitative study , aiming to identify the difficulties the professional faces in the care of children with cancer and their families , the coping mechanisms of these difficulties in the care  and if there is adequate preparation thereof to meet the needs of these children. The subjects were four nurses who care or have cared for children with cancer at Good Shepherd Hospital – Varginha/MG. Data collection was carried out by a semi - structured interview. Results: It was found that the difficulties are care of a child in serious condition, his parents and the emotional involvement. Means of coping relate to prayer and distraction. As to their preparation, professionals refer as being unprepared to act in this area. Conclusion: We concluded that there is lack of preparation of professionals, although they take care of these children in a humanistic way  Keywords: Nurse; children; Cancer.

Abstract C4 and CYP21 are two adjacent, but functionally unrelated genes residing in the middle of the mammalian major histocompatibility complex (Mhc). The C4 gene codes for the fourth component of the complement cascade, whereas the CYP21 gene specifies an enzyme (cytochrome P450c21) of the glucocorticoid and mineralocorticoid pathways. The genes occur frequently in multiple copies on a single chromosome arranged in the order C4 ... CYP21 ... C4 ... CYP21. The unit of duplication (a module) is the C4-CYP21 gene pair. We sequenced the flanking regions of the C4-CYP21 modules and the intermodular regions of the chimpanzee, gorilla, and orangutan, as well as the intermodular region of an Old World monkey, the pigtail macaque. By aligning the sequences, we could identify the duplication breakpoints in these species. The breakpoint turned out to be at exactly the same position as that found previously in humans. The sequences flanking paralogous genes in the same species were found to be more similar to one another than sequences flanking orthologous genes in different species. We interpret these results as indicating that the original (primigenial) duplication occurred before the separation of apes from Old World monkeys more than 23 million years ago. The nature of the sequence at the breakpoint suggests that the duplication occurred by nonhomologous recombination. Since then, the C4-CYP21 haplotypes have been expanding and contracting by homologous crossing over which has homogenized the sequences in each species.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
