ABSTRACT Introduction: anastomotic leak (AL) after colectomy for colorectal cancer (CRC) is a life-threatening complication. This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to evaluate the preoperative risk factors for AL in patients submitted to colectomy. Methods: the bibliographic search covered 15 years and 9 months, from 1st January 2005 to 19th October 2020 and was performed using PubMed, Cochrane Library, Scopus, Biblioteca Virtual em Saúde, Europe PMC and Web of Science databases. The inclusion criteria were cross-sectional, cohort and case-control studies on preoperative risk factors for AL (outcome). The Newcastle-Ottawa scale was used for bias assessment within studies. Meta-analysis involved the calculation of treatment effects for each individual study including odds ratio (OR), relative risk (RR) and 95% confidence intervals (95% CI) with construction of a random-effects model to evaluate the impact of each variable on the outcome. Statistical significance was set at p<0.05. Results: cross-sectional studies were represented by 39 articles, cohort studies by 21 articles and case-control by 4 articles. Meta-analysis identified 14 main risk factors for AL in CRC patients after colectomy, namely male sex (RR=1.56; 95% CI=1.40-1.75), smoking (RR=1.48; 95% CI=1.30-1.69), alcohol consumption (RR=1.35; 95% CI=1.21-1.52), diabetes mellitus (RR=1.97; 95% CI=1.44-2.70), lung diseases (RR=2.14; 95% CI=1.21-3.78), chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (RR=1.10; 95% IC=1.04-1.16), coronary artery disease (RR=1.61; 95% CI=1.07-2.41), chronic kidney disease (RR=1.34; 95% CI=1.22-1.47), high ASA grades (RR=1.70; 95% CI=1.37-2.09), previous abdominal surgery (RR=1.30; 95% CI=1.04-1.64), CRC-related emergency surgery (RR=1.61; 95% CI=1.26-2.07), neoadjuvant chemotherapy (RR=2.16; 95% CI=1.17-4.02), radiotherapy (RR=2.36; 95% CI=1.33-4.19) and chemoradiotherapy (RR=1.58; 95% CI=1.06-2.35).

ABSTRACT Background: Dengue is a public health problem in Brazil. Therefore, this study aimed to analyze factors associated with deaths from dengue in residents of the municipality of Contagem, Metropolitan Region of Belo Horizonte, state of Minas Gerais, Brazil, during the 2016 epidemic. Methods: To determine the factors associated with deaths due to dengue, we used a logistic regression model (univariate and multivariable) in which the response variable (outcome) was death due to dengue. Independent variables analyzed included demographic variables and those related to symptoms, treatment, hospitalization, testing, comorbidities, and case history. Results: The factors associated with dengue deaths in the final multivariable model [p < 0.05; 95% confidence interval (CI)] were age (OR = 1.07; 95%CI 1.03-1.11) and presence of bleeding (OR = 8.55; 95%CI 1.21-59.92). Conclusions: The results showed that age and the presence of bleeding factors increased the risk of dengue death. These findings indicate that warning signs of dengue should be routinely monitored, and patients should be instructed to seek medical attention when they occur. It is also emphasized that the parameters and epidemiological conditions of dengue patients need to be continuously investigated to avoid a fatal outcome.

ABSTRACT Objective: To evaluate the introduction of coaching in the interdisciplinary care of individuals with type 1 diabetes mellitus in the public health care system. Subjects and methods: Ten patients routinely attending a public health care service and with a glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) level above 75% participated in eight coaching sessions. This study evaluated the patients' self-management of the disease and personal behavior. The participants were assessed at the beginning of the program and on two occasions after the intervention, with evaluation of biochemical and anthropometric data, and frequency of self-monitoring of blood glucose (SMBG). Questionnaires were applied during these evaluations to analyze emotional burden (B-PAID), medication adherence (Morisky Adherence Scale), and self-efficacy (IMDSES). Results HbA1c had a median level of 8.0% (range 76-10.3%) at the beginning of the study and reduced significantly 3 months after initiation of the intervention (7.78% [6.5-10%], p = 0.028), with no significant increase at 6 months (8.3% [713-9.27%], p = 0.386). SMBG improved significantly from the beginning to the end of the study, with the median number of glucose tests per week varying from 16.5 (range 0-42) at baseline to 29.0 (7-42) at 3 months and 27.5 (10-48) at 6 months (p = 0.047). No significant differences were observed in anthropometric parameters or in the scores of the instruments between the three measurements. Conclusion: A coaching intervention focused on patients' values and sense of purpose may provide added benefit to traditional diabetes education programs and could be an auxiliary method to help individuals with type 1 diabetes achieve their treatment goals.

ABSTRACT The aim of this study was to evaluate the profile and clinical evolution of patients with type 1 Diabetes Mellitus(T1DM) at a Secondary Reference Center in Minas Gerais. This is a longitudinal study with 174 individuals with T1DM treated at a Secondary Reference Center in Minas Gerais between 2010 and 2015. The studied variables were: Socio-demographic characteristics, time with diabetes, treatment, comorbidities, glycated hemoglobin (A1c) and LDL cholesterol. Paired t-test and McNemar test were used for the annual comparisons of A1c and LDL-c, considering a significance level of 5%. The results showed that 5.7% of the patients were is use of continuous insulin infusion system, 61.5% of NPH and 32.8% of glargine; 47.1% of the patients used statin; 63.21% came to the service with A1c values above 8% and 27.0% above 10%. At the end of the first year of follow-up, this percentage decreased to 49.9%, with a greater reduction of those with A1c above 9%. There was a significant decrease in A1c averages (9.01 ± 2.46 in 2010 and 8.2 ± 1.74 in 2011, p <0.001), which remained unchanged on the following years. There was also a significant reduction of LDL-c over the entire follow-up period (p <0.005). We concluded that the multidisciplinary care of patients with T1DM contributed to the improvement of metabolic parameters on the first year of follow-up.

Se utilizó la prueba T pareado y de McNemar para las comparaciones anuales de la A1c y del LDL-c, con nivel de significancia inferior al 5%. 5,7% de los pacientes utilizaban continuamente la infusión de insulinas, 61,5% de NPH y 32,8% de glargina. El 47,1% de los pacientes usaba estatina; el 63,21% de los pacientes llegó al servicio con valores de A1c superior al 8% y, entre ellos, el 27,0% superior al 10%. Al final del primer año de seguimiento, este porcentaje se redujo al 49,9%, con mayor reducción entre aquéllos con A1c superior al 9%. Se pudo observar significativa disminución en los promedios de A1c (9,01 ± 2.46 en 2010 y 8,2 ± 1.74 en 2011, p <0,001), manteniéndose sin cambios en los demás años. Hubo reducción significativa del LDL-c a lo largo de todo el período (p <0,005). La atención multidisciplinaria de los pacientes con DM1 contribuyó a una mejora de los parámetros metabólicos ya en el primer año de seguimiento.

RESUMO Objetivou-se avaliar o perfil e a evolução clínica dos pacientes com diabetes mellitus tipo 1 (DM1) de um centro de referência secundária de Minas Gerais. Trata-se de estudo longitudinal com 174 pessoas com DM1 atendidos em um centro de referência secundária de Minas Gerais no período de 2010 a 2015. Avaliaram-se variáveis sociodemográficas, tempo de diabetes, tratamento, comorbidades, hemoglobina glicada (A1c) e LDL colesterol. Utilizou-se o teste T pareado e de McNemar para as comparações anuais da A1c e do LDL-c, com nível de significância inferior a 5%. Os resultados mostraram que 5,7% dos pacientes estavam em uso de sistema contínuo de infusão de insulinas, 61,5% de NPH e 32,8% de glargina; 47,1% dos pacientes usavam estatina; 63,21% chegaram ao serviço com valores de A1c acima de 8%, sendo 27,0% acima de 10%. Ao final do primeiro ano de acompanhamento, esse percentual reduziu-se para 49,9%, com maior redução dos que tinham A1c acima de 9%. Observouse diminuição significativa nas médias de A1c (9,01±2.46 em 2010 e 8,2±1.74 em 2011; p<0,001), mantendo-se sem alterações nos demais anos. Apurou-se também significativa redução do LDL-c ao longo de todo o período de acompanhamento (p<0,005). Concluiu-se que o atendimento multidisciplinar dos pacientes com DM1 contribuiu para a melhora dos parâmetros metabólicos logo no primeiro ano de acompanhamento.

CONTEXTO E OBJETIVO: Estudos prévios sugerem que a ocorrência de gravidez simultaneamente com o diagnóstico de câncer de mama pode afetar a evolução da neoplasia. O presente estudo objetivou comparar pacientes com câncer de mama associado à gravidez (PABC) e pacientes com câncer não grávidas (controles) com relação ao tempo decorrido até o diagnóstico de câncer, características tumorais e mortalidade. TIPO DE ESTUDO E LOCAL: Estudo retrospectivo, tipo caso-controle pareado, foi conduzido no Hospital da Santa Casa de Misericórdia e Centro de Quimioterapia Antiblástica e Imunoterapia em Belo Horizonte, Brasil. MÉTODOS: O estudo envolveu 87 pacientes PABC e 252 controles. A influência das covariáveis (intervalo entre os primeiros sintomas e diagnóstico, histologia do tumor, tamanho do tumor primário, metástase a distância, grau de malignidade, dosagem de receptor hormonal e acometimento dos linfonodos axilares) e da variável gravidez sobre a sobrevida global foram avaliados através de análises univariada e multivariada. RESULTADOS: A mediana da sobrevida global para as pacientes PABC de 30,1 meses (intervalo de confiança, IC 95%: 19,4-40,9 meses) foi significativamente (P = 0,005) diferente daquela dos controles (53,1 meses; IC 95%: 35,1-71,0 meses). A sobrevida global acumulada após 5 e 10 anos foi 29,7 e 19,2% no grupo PABC e 47,3 e 34,8% nos controles. Tamanho do tumor, grau de malignidade, metástase a distância e gravidez foram fatores independentes e significativamente condicionantes do prognóstico da doença. CONCLUSÕES: A gravidez foi um fator independente para o prognóstico da doença. A sobrevida global das pacientes PABC foi mais curta do que aquela dos controles.

CONTEXT AND OBJECTIVE: Previous studies have suggested that the occurrence of pregnancy concomitantly with a diagnosis of breast cancer may affect the evolution of the neoplasia. The present study aimed to compare pregnancy-associated breast cancer (PABC) patients with non-pregnant cancer patients (controls) in relation to the time taken to diagnose the disease, tumor characteristics and mortality. DESIGN AND SETTING: A retrospective, paired case-control study was conducted at the Hospital da Santa Casa de Misericórdia and Centro de Quimioterapia Antiblástica e Imunoterapia in Belo Horizonte, Brazil. METHODS: The study involved 87 PABC and 252 control patients. The influence of covariables (interval between first symptoms and diagnosis, tumor histology, size of primary tumor, distant metastasis, grade of malignancy, hormone receptor status and axillary lymph node involvement) and the pregnancy variable on overall survival was investigated using univariate and multivariate analyses. RESULTS: The median overall survival for PABC patients of 30.1 months (95% confidence interval, CI: 19.4-40.9 months) was significantly different (P = 0.005) from that of the control group (53.1 months; 95% CI: 35.1-71.0 months). The cumulative overall survivals after five and ten years were, respectively, 29.7 and 19.2% for PABC patients, and 47.3 and 34.8% for control patients (P = 0.005). Tumor size, grade of malignancy, distant metastasis and pregnancy were independent factors that significantly modified disease prognosis. CONCLUSIONS: Pregnancy was an independent prognostic factor. The overall survival of PABC patients was shorter than that of non-pregnant patients.
