Abstract INTRODUCTION: The promising non-clinical antileishmanial effects of gentian violet (GV) encouraged us to evaluate the additive effect of GV on cryotherapy. METHODS: For 8 weeks, 59/161 cutaneous leishmaniasis patients/lesions underwent cryotherapy alone (group 1) or cryotherapy accompanied b...
ABSTRACT Objective To evaluate the feasibility and applicability of a low-cost cryotherapy system. Methods Experimental study with 25kg Landrace pigs submitted to a longitudinal cervico-thoraco-abdominal incision for exposure of the trachea, thorax and abdomen. The tissues were frozen by continuous s...
Abstract Report of a case of Coats disease associated with retinal vasoproliferative tumor in a young female patient with two peripheral vascularized tumors and lipid exudation involving the macula and peripapillary region with serous retinal detachment areas and pre-papillary fibrous proliferation. The ...

Bronchoscopy cryoprobes are used for palliative treatment of endobronchial obstructions caused by tumors and removal of granulation tissue or foreign bodies. Currently this technology is also used for diagnosis of diffuse interstitial lung disease (ILD). The multidisciplinary team that establishes the cl...
INTRODUCTION: High-intensity resistance exercises (RE) cause an inflammatory response that reduces functionality. OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the effects of Cold Water Immersion (CWI) on leukocytosis, oxidative stress parameters, inflammatory markers and delayed onset muscle soreness (DOMS) resulting from a R...
Abstract: Lobomycosis or lacaziosis is a chronic granulomatous fungal infection caused by Lacazia loboi. Most cases are restricted to tropical regions. Transmission is believed to occur through traumatic inoculation in the skin, mainly in exposed areas. It is characterized by keloid-like nodules. There a...

When exercises are done in intense or exhaustive modes, several acute biochemical mechanisms are triggered. The use of cryotherapy as cold-water immersion is largely used to accelerate the process of muscular recovery based on its anti-inflammatory and analgesic properties. The present study aimed to stu...

Barrett’s esophagus has a risk of developing esophageal adenocarcinoma and it increases when dysplasia is present. For this reason, its diagnosis requires endoscopic surveillance or eradication if dysplasia
or cancer appears. In the past, high-grade dysplasia and intramucosal esophageal adenocarcinoma ...
Las fracturas por avulsión de la tuberosidad anterior de la tibia ocurren generalmente en adolescentes atletas. Estas lesiones son más frecuentes en el sexo masculino y su incidencia puede cifrarse entre el 0,4 por ciento al 2,7 porciento del total de las lesiones epifisarias. Presentamos un adolescen...
