Utilização de ácido valproico para redução da resistência do sorafenibe no tratamento de pacientes com hepatocarcinoma refratário

Resumo: Introduction: Hepatocarcinoma is the most common type of liver tumor, with sorafenib, the first approved option approved by the United Stated Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for advanced disease. However, resistance to sorafenib has recently been reported, compromising its beneficial clinical results. Recent studies have shown that valproic acid could increase sorafenib antitumor activity in resistant hepatocarcinoma cells by modulating signaling pathways. The work aims to present the signaling pathways by which the association between sorafenib and valproic acid demonstrated positive results, thus reversing the resistance to sorafenib presented in patients with hepatocarcinoma. Review: The research was carried out based on searches in the Virtual Health Library (VHL) and Pubmed databases, with the keywords in English sorafenib, valproic acid, mechanisms of resistance and hepatocellular carcinoma, and their respective terms in Portuguese. The search period was from December 7, 2020 to February 7, 2021, and articles published between 2011 and 2021 were considered valid, using the inclusion and exclusion criteria, the abstract and introduction, resulting in 19 articles included in the research. Discussion and Final considerations: The evidence shows that the combined treatment between sorafenib and valproic acid can act in different signaling pathways in order to overcome drug resistance, but also inhibit the expression of genes related to hepatocarcinoma. However, even though valproic acid has been suggested as a possible adjuvant drug for the treatment of various types of cancers, the mechanism used in reversing the resistance of hepatocarcinoma cells is not clear, thus requiring further studies.

Osteorradionecrose: como tratar?

Resumo: Osteoradionecrosis is one of the most serious complications of radiotherapy, which is used for the treatment of head and neck neoplasms. It is a disease in which the irradiated bone becomes devitalized and exposed through the loss of skin and mucosa integrity, persisting without scarring. Review: Facial osteoradionecrosis affects the mandible in most cases, followed by the maxilla. The most important risk factors are the radiation dose used, the presence of periodontal diseases and tooth extractions. Clinical features for diagnosis include local pain, trismus, halitosis, bone exposure, secretion drainage, and fistulization to the skin or mucosa. Discussion: The most complex cases require surgical approach, with radical debridement of devitalized bone and soft tissue, associated with reconstruction. Among the existing options for mandible reconstruction, the most used are free flaps of bone tissue, such as the fibula, iliac crest, scapula and radial forearm flaps. As for the maxilla, the most used are the anterolateral thigh and radial forearm flaps. These are well-vascularized tissues, which provide adequate filling and coverage of the remaining defect. Final considerations: Osteoradionecrosis requires a complex and multidisciplinary treatment where the surgeon plays an important role in its prevention.

Uso de infiltrante resinoso (ICON) para tratamento de lesões de mancha branca

Resumo: Introduction: The Resin Infiltrant (ICON) fills the microporosity of the white spot lesion body, by infiltrating a light-curing low viscosity resin, in order to camouflage white spots, improve aesthetics and prevent the progression of dental caries. Review: Morphological alterations of white spot, both pre-eruptive (fluorosis, amelogenesis imperfecta) and post-eruptive (caries lesion), cause dispersion of incident light rays, due to the difference in the refractive index of hydroxyapatite and of air, which fills the demineralized pores and results in this unsightly optical effect. However, the resinous infiltrant ICON, which through capillary forces is transported in the porosities of the enamel, where it fills the empty spaces, and after its polymerization, blocks the diffusion pathways for cariogenic acids and dissolved minerals, which provides paralysis and alteration of the light scattering by the refractive index (RI) of the resin, resembling the existing healthy enamel, that is, camouflaging the white spot. Discussion: The esthetic function, mimicry of the white spot lesion, pigmentation susceptibility and functional microhardness of the enamel are directly related to the depth and extension of the lesions, considering that its roughness is acceptable. Final considerations: The resinous infiltrate (ICON) camouflages superficial white spot lesions, increases enamel microhardness and paralyzes carious activity.

Managing pharmacies, hospitals or community, in times of SARS-CoV-2 is a new challenge. The hospital pharmacy has been facing several challenges in the face of the pandemic scenario and, in order to continue offering a quality service to the population, it was necessary to adopt coping strategies and adapt their activities. Thus, this research aims to highlight the importance of pharmacists and pharmacies within hospital units, considering the specificities of the pandemic of COVID-19. Review: This is an exploratory bibliographic review, through an integrative review. The collection of scientific data and the systematization of information come from scientific productions published from 2018 to 2021, in Portuguese, indexed in the database of the BVS, LILACS and SCIELO. Discussion: Hospital pharmacists had to restructure the service in response to COVID-19, considering the need to protect the teams, so that there is no compromise in the care activity and support for medical action and, simultaneously, provide an effective response to the new reality, not neglecting the component of reviewing and monitoring the use of health technologies and active pharmacovigilance of drugs used in the treatment of COVID-19. Final Remarks: It was found that the concept of hospital pharmacy goes beyond a sector of custody of medicines, being a department that adds value to other sectors of the hospital. Thus, the research findings allowed us to conclude that pharmacists, when working in hospital pharmacies, can collaborate with the multiprofessional health team, monitoring the use of medicines and the clinical evolution of patients, since the off-label use of medicines is a current reality that can cause serious damage to the health of individuals.
