Patients were suitable for reperfusion, but one third of them did not have the procedure. Two deaths during evolution. The most predominant treatment was CTA, with low morbidity. Low global lethality.
ObjectiveTo demonstrate the prevalence of stress hyperglycemia in a cohort of patients with
acute coronary syndrome and to determine the correlation of stress hyperglycemia
with death, heart failure and/or left ventricular systolic dysfunction during the
intrahospital phase. MethodsA prospective initial cohort study of hospitalized patients with acute coronary
syndrome with or without ST segment elevation. The groups were compared to
demonstrate the correlation between stress hyperglycemia and cardiovascular
events. The chi-square test or Fisher's exact test and student's t-test were used
to compare the groups with and without stress hyperglycemia. The variables with
p<0.20 in the univariate analysis were submitted to logistic regression. ResultsIn total, 363 patients with an average age of 12.45 ± 62.06 were studied. There
was a predominance of males (64.2%). In total, 96 patients (26.4%) presented with
stress hyperglycemia. There were no differences between the groups with or without
stress hyperglycemia. The area under the ROC curve was 0.67 for the relationship
between stress hyperglycemia and the composite outcome heart failure, left
ventricular systolic dysfunction or death at the end of the hospital admission.
The ROC curve proved that stress hyperglycemia was the predictor of the composite
outcome (death, heart failure and/or ventricular dysfunction). The multivariate
analysis did not indicate age, stress hyperglycemia or admission heart rate as
risk factors. ConclusionStress hyperglycemia was common in the studied sample. In the univariate analysis,
the presence of stress hyperglycemia was associated with such events as death,
heart failure and/or intrahospital ventricular dysfunction in patients with acute
coronary syndrome.
The 1,4-naphthoquinones are an important group of compounds intensively studied because of their wide range of biological activities. Four 2-chloro-3-(substituted-phenylamino)- 1,4‑naphthoquinone derivatives were synthesized, and the vibrational modes of these molecules were assigned using Raman and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) techniques. In addition, X-ray studies were performed for one of these derivatives. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations were also developed for these compounds and presented. In summary, the results obtained from these studies can assess chemical changes in the structures of functionalized quinones and the discovery of candidate biologically active compounds.
Com o crescente interesse da sociedade na aplicação dos recursos públicos, a atividade de auditoria interna governamental ganha importância. Entretanto, devido ao crescimento da integração e da complexidade dos sistemas de informação, que processam grandes quantidade de dados, os auditores enfrentam novos desafios ao analisar controles internos. Este artigo aplica a técnica de mineração de processos para identificar gargalos e violações de controles em processos internos, gerando um novo tipo de evidência de auditoria. A metodologia proposta foi aplicada com sucesso nos processos da Marinha do Brasil, fornecendo meios para identificar desvios e possíveis reduções de interações e iterações realizadas pelos agentes.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
