Abstract Objective Advances in medicine have increased the life expectancy of pediatric patients with chronic illnesses, and challenges with the guided transition of adolescents and young adults from pediatric clinics to adult clinics have grown. The aim of this study was to better understand readiness and factors related to this transition process in Brazil. Method In this cross-sectional study of 308 patients aged from 16 to 21 years under follow-up in pediatric specialties, the degree of readiness for transition was assessed using the Transition Readiness Assessment Questionnaire (TRAQ) and its domains. Associations with demographic data, clinical data, socio-economic level, medication adherence, family functionality, and parental satisfaction with health care were evaluated. Results The median TRAQ score was 3.7 (3.2 - 4.2). Better readiness was associated with female patients, socio-economic class A-B, current active employment, higher level of education, not failing any school year, attending medical appointments alone, functional family, and a good knowledge of disease and medications. A low correlation was observed between TRAQ and age. TRAQ presented good internal consistency (alpha-Cronbach 0.86). In the multiple linear regression, TRAQ score showed a significant association with female gender, advanced age, socio-economic class A-B, better knowledge of disease and medications, and independence to attend appointments alone. Conclusion TRAQ instrument can guide healthcare professionals to identify specific areas of approach, in order to support adolescents with chronic disease to set goals for their own personal development and improve their readiness to enter into the adult healthcare system. In this study, some factors were related to better TRAQ scores.

Abstract Introduction Sickle cell anemia is a monogenic disorder caused by a mutation in the β-hemoglobin gene, resulting in sickle hemoglobin that can polymerize. Presentation and clinical course have significant inter-individual variability and classifying these patients for severity is a challenge. Methods We applied hierarchical clusters with 10 routine laboratory tests to understand if this grouping could be associated with clinical manifestations. We included 145 adult homozygous patients (SS) at an outpatient clinic in a retrospective study. Results We found five clusters by counting those that had been differentiated by unconjugated bilirubin, reticulocytes, LDH, leukocytes, lymphocytes and monocytes. When comparing groups to clinical findings, the clusters were different only for liver abnormality. Cluster 3 had the lower median of reticulocytes, LDH, leukocytes, lymphocytes and monocytes and a higher percentage of patients under treatment. Clusters 4 and 5 had higher frequencies of liver impairment and higher medians of reticulocytes, LDH, leukocytes, lymphocytes and monocytes. Hemolysis and inflammation seemed to influence the grouping. Conclusion In our study, cluster analysis showed five groups that exhibited different degrees of inflammation and hemolysis. When comparing clinical data, the result was different only for the criteria of liver abnormality.

Abstract This study aimed to evaluate the antioxidant potential of the Coffea arabica Lineu (L.) leaf extract and its effects on platelet aggregation of dyslipidemic rats. The extract was obtained by the percolation of C. arabica L. leaves in hydroethanolic solution 70% (v/v). The mass spectrometry FIA-ESI-MS² suggested the presence of chlorogenic acid, rutin acid, and quinic acid. The DPPH• radicals scavenging capacity was demonstrated (IC50 = 0.06 mg/mL). The extract was administered to rats by gavage (300 mg/kg/day) for 56 days. Dyslipidemia was induced by administering Triton WR-1339 (300 mg/kg body weight) on the 54th day. On day 56, blood was collected by puncturing the abdominal aorta artery and the aortic artery was removed. Lipid profile, markers of renal and hepatic injury, lipid peroxidation, and platelet aggregation tests were carried out. The ingestion of extract reduced the lipid peroxidation (aorta and plasma) and platelet aggregation in dyslipidemic rats. The extract did not affect markers of renal and hepatic function as analyzed in this study, suggesting neither impaired liver nor kidney function in these animals. Therefore, our results demonstrate that the extract of leaves of C. arabica L. show antioxidant potential in vitro and in vivo as well as anti-platelet aggregation in dyslipidemic animals.

Paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria is a chronic, multi-systemic, progressive and lifethreatening disease characterized by intravascular hemolysis, thrombotic events, serious infections and bone marrow failure. Paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria results from the expansion of a clone of hematopoietic cells that due to an inactivating mutation of the X-linked gene PIG-A are deficient in glycosylphosphatidylinositol-linked proteins. Early diagnosis, using flow cytometry performed on peripheral blood, the gold standard test to confirm the diagnosis of paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria, is essential for improved patient management and prognosis. The traditional therapy for paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria includes blood transfusion, anti-thrombosis prophylaxis or allogeneic bone marrow transplantation. The treatment that has recently become available is the complement blockade by the anti-C5 monoclonal antibody eculizumab. In this consensus, we are aiming to review the diagnosis and treatment of the paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria patients, as well as the early recognition of its systemic complications. These procedures express the opinions of experts and have been based on the best available evidence and international guidelines, with the purpose of increasing benefits and reducing harm to patients.

RESUMO Objetivo: Identificar as evidências disponíveis na literatura sobre qualidade de vida relacionada à saúde em adultos com doença falciforme. Método: revisão integrativa nas bases de dados MEDLINE, CUMED, LILACS e SciELO, de artigos provenientes de estudos desenvolvidos nesta temática, publicados entre 2005 a 2015, em inglês, português ou espanhol. Resultados: foram incluídos 22 artigos, sendo utilizadas seis escalas para avaliar os escores de qualidade de vida relacionada à saúde: três genéricas e três específicas. Nenhuma escala específica para adultos com doença falciforme foi adaptada para o português brasileiro até o momento. Pacientes acometidos por crises dolorosas frequentes, com baixa adesão ao tratamento, apresentaram comprometimento da qualidade de vida. Conclusão: Os estudos selecionados evidenciaram que os pacientes com doença falciforme têm piores escores do que a população em geral. Esses indicadores deveriam instrumentalizar o enfermeiro na proposição de intervenções e estratégias assistenciais e socioeducativas, com vistas a melhorar a qualidade de vida desta clientela.

ABSTRACT Objective: To identify the available evidence in the literature on health-related quality of life in adults with sickle cell disease. Method: integrative review of MEDLINE, CUMED, LILACS and SciELO databases, from articles developed in this area, published between 2005 and 2015, in English, Portuguese or Spanish. Results: 22 articles were included, six scales were used to evaluate health-related quality of life scores: three generic and three specific. No specific scale for adults with sickle cell disease has been adapted to Brazilian Portuguese so far. Patients affected by frequent painful crises, with low adherence to treatment, had a compromised quality of life. Conclusion: Selected studies have shown that patients with sickle cell disease have worse scores than the general population. These indicators should be instrumental to the nurse in the proposal of interventions and strategies of assistance and socio-educational, with a view to improving the quality of life of this clientele.

RESUMO Doppler transcraniano (DTC) é um componente estratégico da prevenção primária do acidente vascular cerebral (AVC) em crianças com doença falciforme (DF). Este estudo foi realizado para examinar as características do DTC de crianças com DF em nove centros médicos diferentes no Brasil. Métodos: DTC foi realizado de acordo com o protocolo de Stroke Prevention Trial in Sickle Cell Anemia Protocol (STOP). Resultados: Dos 396 pacientes avaliados, 69,5% eram homozigotos para hemoglobina SS. DTC foi anormal em 4,8%, condicional em 12,6%, inadequado em 5,3% e anormalmente baixo em 1%. As máximas velocidades de fluxo médio foram 121 ± 23,83cm/s e 124 ± 27,21 cm/s nas artérias cerebrais media esquerda e direita, respectivamente. Um total de 28,8% dos pacientes (média de 9,19 ± 5,92 anos) foram avaliados com o DTC pela primeira vez. Conclusões: Pacientes com DF foram avaliados com DTC numa idade considerada avançada, o que representa uma importante oportunidade perdida para a prevenção de AVC nessa população. Uma vez que a triagem com DTC em pacientes com DF é essencial para detectar aqueles com alto risco de AVC, recomenda-se que essa triagem seja amplamente disponível no país.

ABSTRACT Transcranial doppler (TCD) is a strategic component of primary stroke prevention in children with sickle cell disease (SCD). This study was conducted to examine the TCD characteristics of children with SCD in nine different medical centers in Brazil. Methods: Transcranial doppler was performed in accordance with the Stroke Prevention Trial in Sickle Cell Anemia Protocol. Results: Of the 396 patients, 69.5% had homozygous SS hemoglobin. The TCD result was abnormal in 4.8%, conditional in 12.6%, inadequate in 4.3% and abnormally low in 1% of patients. The highest mean flow velocities were 121±23.83cm/s and 124±27.21cm/s in the left and right middle cerebral artery respectively. A total of 28.8% patients (mean age 9.19±5.92 years) were evaluated with TCD for the first time. Conclusions: The SCD patients were evaluated with TCD at an older age, representing an important missed opportunity for stroke prevention. Since TCD screening in patients with SCD is important to detect those at high risk for stroke, it is recommended that this screening should be made more readily available.

BACKGROUND: Haptoglobin genotypes, and interleukin-6 and -8 participate in the pathophysiology of sickle cell anemia. The expression of cytokines is regulated by genetic mechanisms however the effect of haptoglobin polymorphisms on these cytokines is not fully understood. This study aimed to compare the frequency of haptoglobin genotypes and the interleukin-6 and -8 concentrations in sickle cell anemia patients and controls to investigate the association between haptoglobin genotypes and cytokine levels.METHODS: Sixty sickle cell anemia patients and 74 healthy individuals were analyzed. Haptoglobin genotypes were determined by multiplex polymerase chain reaction, and the interleukin-6 and -8 levels by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay. The association between haptoglobin genotypes and cytokines was investigated by statistical tests.RESULTS:Hp2-1 was the most common genotype in both the cases and controls while Hp1-1 was less frequent among sickle cell anemia patients. Interleukin-6 and -8 levels were higher in patients than controls (p-value <0.0001). There was no significant difference in interleukin-6 and -8 concentrations between the genotypes (p-value >0.05). A similar trend was observed among the controls.CONCLUSION: Although, levels of interleukin-6 and -8 were higher in the sickle cell anemia patients, they appeared not to be related to the haptoglobin genotypes. Further investigations are necessary to identify factors responsible for increased secretion of the interleukin-6 and -8 pro-inflammatory cytokines in patients with sickle cell anemia.

CONTEXTO E OBJETIVO: A qualidade de vida relacionada à saúde (QVRS) pode ser piorada em pacientes com doença falciforme na presença de transtornos psiquiátricos. O objetivo deste estudo é descrever a sintomatologia psiquiátrica presente no paciente brasileiro com doença falciforme e avaliar a relação desses sintomas com o genótipo da doença e a QVRS do sujeito. TIPO DE ESTUDO E LOCAL: Estudo com delineamento transversal, realizado no ambulatório de Hematologia do Hospital São Paulo. MÉTODOS: Adultos com doença falciforme responderam ao Questionário de Qualidade de Vida (SF-36) e ao Questionário sobre a Saúde do Paciente (PHQ). Dados clínicos foram obtidos no prontuário médico. Modelos de regressão linear foram desenvolvidos para estudar a dependência dos domínios de QVRS no genótipo com controle para sintomas psiquiátricos. RESULTADOS: No período do estudo, 110 pacientes foram avaliados. O sintoma psiquiátrico mais frequente foi o depressivo (30%), seguido do ansioso (12,7%) e de abuso de álcool (9,1%). Os pacientes com genótipo mais grave (SS e S βthal0) apresentaram menores médias nos domínios de QVRS de "saúde geral" e de "aspectos físicos", sem interferência dos sintomas psiquiátricos. No domínio "aspectos físicos", o genótipo mais grave funcionou como fator protetor da QVRS (β = 0,255; P = 0,007). CONCLUSÃO: Os genótipos mais graves pioraram a QVRS em dois domínios do componente físico ("aspectos físicos" e "saúde geral"), mas não influenciaram o componente mental, sugerindo que o médico deve estar atento aos aspectos da QVRS relacionados com a funcionalidade do portador da doença falciforme, conhecendo as limitações com as quais o paciente convive.

CONTEXT AND OBJECTIVE: Health-related quality of life (HRQoL) may be worsened in sickle cell patients due to the presence of psychiatric disorders. The aims of this study were to describe the psychiatric symptoms in Brazilian sickle cell patients and to evaluate the relationship of these symptoms to the genotype of the disease and the subject's HRQoL. DESIGN AND SETTING: Cross-sectional study conducted at the hematology outpatient clinic, Hospital São Paulo. METHODS: Adult patients with sickle cell disease completed the Medical Outcome Study - Short Form 36 and the Patients' Health Questionnaire. Clinical data were gathered from their medical files. Linear regression models were developed to study the dependency of HRQoL domains on the genotype controlling for psychiatric symptoms. RESULTS: In the study period, 110 patients were evaluated. The most frequent psychiatric symptom was depression (30%), followed by anxiety (12.7%) and alcohol abuse (9.1%). Patients with the more severe genotype (SS and Sβthal0) showed lower scores for the "general health" and "role-physical" HRQoL domains, without interference from psychiatric symptoms. In the "role-physical" domain, the more severe genotype operated as a protective factor for HRQoL (β = 0.255; P = 0.007). CONCLUSION: The more severe genotypes worsened HRQoL in two domains of physical health (general health and role-physical), but they did not have any influence on mental health, thus suggesting that physicians should be more attentive to aspects of HRQoL relating to the functionality of sickle cell disease patients, so as to be aware of the limitations that these patient live with.
