The present study aimed to perform a macroscopic, histopathological and immunohistochemical evaluation for CD68 and CD57 in organs of autopsied adults with HLH. A total of 604 autopsy reports were analyzed, and all the patients that filled the diagnostic criteria for HLH (n = 2) were selected. These patients were 18 and 37 years old. Were evaluated both clinical and autopsy reports and performed histopathological and immunohistochemical analysis of the liver and spleen. Both patients filled the diagnostic criteria for HLH, as well as presented common signs and symptoms of this disease, such as chills, abdominal pain, diaphoresis, and jaundice. Hemophagocytosis was observed in the spleen, bone marrow, and lymph nodes of the two patients at autopsy. Immunostaining in the liver and spleen of both patients was mainly severe for CD68, and predominantly mild for CD57, indicat...

Methods This was a retrospective study performed at a public university hospital. A total of 41 patients with a cytologic diagnosis of HPV infection and 40 HPV-negative patients were selected for review of the cervical-vaginal smears seeking to classical and secondary criteria. A single pathologist reviewed the slides in search of the criteria. The classical and secondary cytologic criteria were compared with the hybrid capture for diagnosing HPV infection. Bartleti test was applied for the age analysis, and Fisher's exact test was used to compare proportions. The tests were considered significant when the probability of rejecting the null hypothesis was less than 5% (p < 0.05). Results The Meisels criteria were less sensitive (34.0%) than the secondary Schneider criteria (57.5%) when compared with the hybrid capture (p < 0.0001), although the specificity of the former criteria was non-significantly higher (91.2% and 67.7%, respectively). In cases of moderate or intense inflammation, the sensitivity and specificity of the Schneider criteria were decreased, 33.3% and 50.0% respectively (p ¼ 0.0115).

Aim: To evaluate gastric histopathological changes in obese, and to compare with patients who underwent gastrojejunal bypass and the jejunal mucosa after the surgery. Methods: This is an observational study performed at a tertiary public hospital, evaluating endoscopic biopsies from 36 preoperative patients and 35 postoperative. Results: In the preoperative group, 80.6% had chronic gastritis, which was active in 38.9% (77.1% and 20.1%, respectively, in the postoperative). The postoperative group had a significant reduction in H. pylori infection (p=0.0001). A longer length of the gastric stump and a time since surgery of more than two years were associated with Helicobacter pylori infection. The jejunal mucosa was normal in 91.4% and showed slight nonspecific chronic inflammation in 8.6%. Conclusion: There was a reduction in the incidence of Helicobacter pylori infection in the post...

A ausência de sintomatologia em sua fase inicial, a falta de preparo do cirurgião-dentista, o medo e a falta de informação da população são fatores que podem estar associados ao diagnóstico tardio da doença. No Brasil, a boca representa a quinta localização de maior incidência de câncer em homens e a sétima em mulheres. O objetivo deste estudo foi o de expor a importância do cirurgião-dentista em promover o diagnóstico precoce do Câncer de boca, que é um importante problema de saúde pública no mundo.

Tumor progression involves signalling proteins called galectins. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the immunohistochemical expression of galectins “1”, “3” and “9” in the ovarian surface epithelial neoplasia. A retrospective study involving 62 ovarian epithelial tumors (benign and non-benign) was performed with immunohistochemical polymer technique and antibodies against galectin “1”, “3” and “9”. Expression in epithelium and stroma was analysed semi-quantitatively. Fisher’s exact test was performed for statistical analysis. Galectin-“1” and “3” were strongly expressed in non-benign tumors of the epithelium. Non-benign neoplasms showed increased stromal expression of galectin-1 and increased epithelial expression of galectin-“3”. The significant increase in expression of galectin-1 and -3 in the epithelium of non- benign ovarian neoplasms suggests the participation of...
