Objective: To report the results of a workshop regarding asthma management programs and centers (AMPCs) in Brazil, so that they can be used as a tool for the improvement and advancement of current and future AMPCs. Methods: The workshop consisted of five presentations and the corresponding group discussions. The working groups discussed the following themes: implementation of asthma management strategies; human resources needed for AMPCs; financial resources needed for AMPCs; and operational maintenance of AMPCs. Results: The workshop involved 39 participants, from all regions of the country, representing associations of asthma patients (n = 3), universities (n = 7), and AMPCs (n = 29). We found a direct relationship between a lack of planning and the failure of AMPCs. Based on the experiences reported during the workshop, the common assumptions about AMPCs in Brazil were the importance of raising awareness of managers; greater community participation; interdependence between primary care and specialized care; awareness of regionalization; and use of medications available in the public health system. Conclusions: Brazil already has a core of experience in the area of asthma management programs. The implementation of strategies for the management of chronic respiratory disease and their incorporation into health care system protocols would seem to be a natural progression. However, there is minimal experience in this area. Joint efforts by individuals with expertise in AMPCs could promote the implementation of asthma management strategies, thus speeding the creation of treatment networks, which might have a multiplier effect, precluding the need for isolated centers to start from zero. Objetivo: Relatar os resultados de uma oficina de trabalho sobre programas e centros de atenção a asmáticos (PCAAs) no Brasil para que possam servir como instrumento para melhoria e avanço dos PCAAs existentes e criação de novos. Métodos: A oficina de trabalho constituiu-se de cinco apresentações e discussões em grupos. Os grupos de trabalho discutiram os seguintes temas: implementação de uma linha de cuidado em asma; recursos humanos necessários para os PCAA; recursos necessários para financiar os PCAA; e manutenção do funcionamento dos PCAAs. Resultados: A oficina envolveu 39 participantes de todas as regiões do país, representando associações de asmáticos (n = 3), centros universitários (n = 7) e PCAAs (n = 29). Evidenciou-se uma relação direta entre a ausência de planejamento e o insucesso dos PCAAs. Com base nas experiências brasileiras elencadas durante a oficina, as premissas comuns foram a importância da sensibilização do gestor, maior participação da comunidade, interdependência entre a atenção primária e a especializada, observação da regionalização e utilização dos medicamentos disponíveis no sistema público de saúde. Conclusões: O Brasil já tem um núcleo de experiências na área programática da asma. A implementação de uma linha de cuidado em doenças respiratórias crônicas e sua inclusão nas redes de saúde parecem ser o caminho natural. Porém, a experiência nessa área ainda é pequena. Agregar pessoas com experiência nos PCAAs na elaboração da linha de cuidado em asma encurtaria tempo na criação de redes de atenção com possível efeito multiplicador, evitando que se partisse do zero em cada local isolado.

A silicose é a pneumoconiose mais frequente, decorrente da inalação de sílica ou de poeiras minerais contendo silicatos, caracterizada principalmente pela fibrose pulmonar de caráter irreversível. Está associada com o desenvolvimento de outras doenças, incluindo tuberculose pulmonar, câncer pulmonar e doenças autoimunes. A doença do tecido conjuntivo posterior à exposição à sílica ocorre geralmente após 15 anos do início da exposição. A síndrome de Erasmus refere-se ao desenvolvimento de esclerose sistêmica em indivíduos previamente expostos à sílica e que apresentavam ou não silicose. Os autores relatam dois casos de pacientes com diagnóstico de silicose que desenvolveram esclerose sistêmica. The silicosis is the pneumoconiosis more frequent, resulting from the inhalation of silica or silicates containing mineral dust, mainly characterized by irreversible lung fi brosis. It is associated with the development of other diseases, including pulmonary tuberculosis, lung cancer and autoimmune diseases. The connective tissue disease after exposure to silica occurs usually after 15 years of initial exposure.The Erasmus syndrome describes the association of systemic sclerosis following exposure to silica with or without silicosis. The authors report two cases of patients with diagnosis of silicosis who developed systemic sclerosis.

It is a disorder of the non-contagious and nonfatal movement caused by the progressive loss of the ventrolateral cells of the compact part of the black substance of the midbrain, which leads to three cardinal signs: rest tremor, stiffness and bradykinesia. Although the scientific research mainly addresses neuromotor signs, there are other functional damages, and the consequences of ventilatory dysfunction are the main cause of death in this population. Objective: To analyze pulmonary function and respiratory muscle strength (FMR) of elderly patients with PD at an early stage. Method: An observational study evaluating the degree of dysfunction related to the disease through the modified Hoehn & Yahr scale, FMR by manovacuometry, and pulmonary volumes and capacities by spirometry. FMR and lung function were evaluated in the on and off period of levodopa (L-Dopa). The results were presented through graphs and tables, with simple absolute frequencies and relative to the categorical data. For the analysis of the quantitative data, when the normality hypothesis was accepted using the Shapiro-Wilk test, the mean and the standard deviation (SD) were calculated. When the normality hypothesis was rejected, it was decided to calculate the median and the interquartile range (IIQ). In the comparison of means, the t-student test was applied, and in the case of the dependent variables the paired t-student test. In the comparison of medians, the Mann-Whitney test for the independent variables was applied, and Wilcoxon for dependent variables. The Minitab version 17 program was used for Windows and the level of significance in the statistical tests was 5%. Results: Elderly patients with early-stage PD had a higher prevalence of ventilatory disorder than their controls, mainly the restrictive disorder. There was no respiratory muscle weakness and no difference between the respiratory muscle strength of the elderly with PD in relation to their controls, matched by gender, age and body mass index. The on-off period of L-Dopa didn???t change the analyzed variables. Conclusion: Elderly patients with PD present ventilatory disorders, even in the early stages of the disease, being the restrictive disorder the most prevalent. L-Dopa does not change the analyzed variables. A Doen??a de Parkinson (DP) ?? a segunda doen??a neurodegenerativa mais prevalente no mundo. ?? uma desordem do movimento n??o contagiosa e n??o fatal causada pela perda progressiva das c??lulas ventrolaterais da parte compacta da subst??ncia negra do mesenc??falo, que leva a tr??s sinais cardeais: tremor de repouso, rigidez e bradicinesia. Apesar das pesquisas cient??ficas abordarem, principalmente, os sinais neuromotores, existem outros preju??zos funcionais, sendo as consequ??ncias da disfun????o ventilat??ria a principal causa de morte nesta popula????o. Objetivo: Analisar a fun????o pulmonar e a for??a muscular respirat??ria (FMR) de idosos com DP em est??gio inicial. M??todo: Estudo observacional que avaliou o grau de disfun????o relacionado ?? doen??a por meio da escala de Hoehn & Yahr modificada, a FMR por manovacuometria e os volumes e capacidades pulmonares pela espirometria. A FMR e a fun????o pulmonar foram avaliadas no per??odo on e off da levodopa (L-Dopa). Os resultados foram apresentados por meio de gr??ficos e tabelas, com frequ??ncias absolutas simples e relativas para os dados categ??ricos. Para a an??lise dos dados quantitativos, quando aceita a hip??tese de normalidade por meio do teste de Shapiro-Wilk, foi calculada a m??dia e o desvio padr??o (DP). Quando rejeitada a hip??tese de normalidade optou-se por calcular a mediana e o intervalo interquartil (IIQ). Na compara????o das m??dias foi aplicado o teste t-student, sendo no caso das vari??veis dependentes o teste t-student pareado. Na compara????o das medianas foi aplicado o teste de Mann-Whitney para as vari??veis independentes, e Wilcoxon para vari??veis dependentes. Foi utilizado o programa Minitab vers??o 17 para Windows e o n??vel de signific??ncia fixado nos testes estat??sticos foi de 5 %. Resultados: Os idosos com DP em est??gio inicial da doen??a apresentaram maior preval??ncia de dist??rbio ventilat??rio que seus controles, principalmente o dist??rbio restritivo. N??o houve fraqueza muscular respirat??ria e nem diferen??a entre a FMR dos idosos com DP em rela????o a seus controles, pareados por sexo, idade e ??ndice de massa corporal. O per??odo on e off da L-Dopa n??o alterou as vari??veis analisadas. Conclus??o: Idosos com DP apresentam dist??rbios ventilat??rios, mesmo em est??gios iniciais da doen??a, sendo o dist??rbio restritivo o mais prevalente. A L-Dopa n??o alterou a vari??veis analisadas. Per??odo de Embargo: 07/03/2019 - 26/04/2021
