Tinnitus is a symptom whose main cause is hearing loss, treated by otolaryngologists and speech therapists. But in addition to hearing loss there are numerous other causes for tinnitus, multiprofessional approach, treated with complementary therapies. The aim of the research was to evaluate the effects on the symptoms of subjects with chronic tinnitus after a single session of cranial osteopathy, and after treatment with cranial osteopathy and acupuncture. The oxidative metabolism of the subjects after the single session of cranial osteopathy was also evaluated. The research sample consisted of volunteers who, complaining of tinnitus for at least six months, sought the Audiology Clinic of the University Hospital of Santa Maria. The first phase, the single session of cranial osteopathy (n = 28) lasted 50 minutes, and the second phase, the treatment with one session per week, for six weeks lasting 30 minutes each, with cranial osteopathy (OCG, n = 12), or with Acupuncture (ACG, n = 12), where subjects were randomized by simple draw method. Osteopathy techniques were directed at cranial sutures, masticatory muscles, temporomandibular joint (TMJ) and sphenobasilar synchondrosis; and the application of acupuncture followed a protocol whose meridians included Triple Warmer (TW), Gallbladder (GB), Small Intestine (SI) among others. All subjects underwent history taking, audiometry, acuphenometry, and the Tinnitus Handicap Inventory Questionnaire (THI). The subjects who participated in the single session also had their oxidative metabolism evaluated by blood collection and thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS), dichlorofluorescein diacetate (DCFH-DA), protein carbonation and PicoGreen DNA tests. The Visual Analog Scale (VAS) was performed before and after the sessions, and it was considered a symptom improvement if two or more points were decreased. The results allowed us to conclude that both single session and Cranial Osteopathy and Acupuncture treatments were effective in the improvement of tinnitus. Protein carbonylation increased shortly after the single session of cranial osteopathy. Cranial osteopathy, an innovative and inexpensive complementary therapy, can be considered as an effective alternative for the treatment of tinnitus. Its biochemical effects still require further elucidation. O zumbido é um sintoma cuja principal causa é a perda auditiva, tratada por Otorrinolaringologistas e Fonoaudiólogos. Mas além da perda auditiva existem inúmeras outras causas para o zumbido, de abordagem multiprofissional, tratadas com terapias complementares. O objetivo da pesquisa foi avaliar os efeitos sobre a sintomatologia de sujeitos com zumbido crônico após uma única sessão de Osteopatia craniana, e, após o tratamento com Osteopatia craniana e Acupuntura. Também foi avaliado o metabolismo oxidativo dos sujeitos após a sessão única de Osteopatia craniana. A amostra da pesquisa foi composta por voluntários que, apresentando queixa de zumbido há pelo menos seis meses, procuraram o Ambulatório de Audiologia do Hospital Universitário de Santa Maria. A primeira fase, a sessão única de Osteopatia craniana (n=28) teve duração de 50 minutos, e a segunda fase, o tratamento com uma sessão por semana, durante seis semanas com duração de 30 minutos cada, com Osteopatia Craniana (GOC, n=12), ou com Acupuntura (GAC, n=12), onde os sujeitos foram randomizados por método simples do tipo sorteio. As técnicas de Osteopatia foram direcionadas às suturas cranianas, músculos mastigatórios, articulação temporomandibular (ATM) e sincondrose esfenobasilar; e a aplicação da Acupuntura seguiu um protocolo cujos meridianos incluiam Triplo Aquecedor (TA), Vesícula Biliar (VB), Intestino delgado (ID) entre outros. Todos os sujeitos foram submetidos a Anamnese, Audiometria, Acufenometria, e ao Questionário Tinnitus Handicap Inventory (THI). Os sujeitos que participaram da sessão única, tiveram ainda, a avaliação do metabolismo oxidativo por meio da coleta de sangue e realização dos testes Substâncias Reativas ao Ácido tiobarbitúrico (TBARS), Diclorofluoresceína diacetato (DCFH-DA), Carbonilação de proteínas e DNA PicoGreen. A Escala Visual Analógica (EVA) foi realizada antes e após as sessões, e foi considerada melhora sintomatológica a diminuição de dois ou mais de seus pontos. Os resultados permitiram concluir que tanto a sessão única quanto os tratamentos de Osteopatia craniana e Acupuntura foram eficazes na melhora sintomatológica do zumbido. Houve aumento na carbonilação de proteínas logo após a sessão única de Osteopatia craniana. Pode-se considerar que a Osteopatia craniana, uma terapia complementar inovadora e de baixo custo pode ser uma alternativa eficaz para o tratamento do zumbido. Seus efeitos a nível bioquímico ainda necessitam maior elucidação.

Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior Vincristine is a chemotherapeutic agent used to treat various types of cancers with effective clinical outcomes. However, its effects include a number of disorders related to balance, such as ataxia, tremors and peripheral neuropathy. These damages are likely associated with poisoning by the drug in the central and peripheral nervous systems. There is evidence that guarana (Paullinia cupana) may have neuroprotective effects on the central nervous system. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of vincristine and guarana on cell viability and oxidative metabolism in vitro cell cultures of mice brain and cerebellum. The cells were incubated for 24 and 72 hours in a specific medium (DMEM) and treated with vincristine at a concentration 0.009 mM for 24 hours and 0.0007 mM for 72 hours and at concentrations of 10, 30, 100 and 300μg/m Lof guarana extract. Incubation was followed by MTT and Pico Green ® tests and evaluation of catalase, superoxide dismutase and thiol activity (cell viability), as well as TBARS, protein carbonyls and dichlorodihydrofluorescein (oxidative metabolism). The results indicated that vincristine may cause cytotoxic effects in mice cerebellum and brain and that guarana may reverse this cytotoxicity in concentrations 100 e 300μg/mL. A vincristina é um quimioterápico utilizado no tratamento de vários tipos de neoplasias com grandes resultados clínicos, porém, seus efeitos incluem uma série de alterações do equilíbrio, como ataxia, tremores e neuropatia periférica. Estes danos estão provavelmente associados à intoxicação provocada pelo fármaco no sistema nervoso central e periférico. Há indícios de que o guaraná (Paullinia cupana) possui componentes capazes de produzir neuroproteção central. O objetivo deste estudo foi avaliar os efeitos da vincristina e do guaraná sobre a viabilidade celular e o metabolismo oxidativo no cérebro e no cerebelo de camundongos em cultura celular in vitro. As células foram incubadas por 24 e 72 horas em meio específico (DMEM) e tratadas com vincristina na concentração 0,009 μM para 24 horas e 0,0007 μM para 72 horas e com as concentrações de 10, 30, 100 e 300μg/mL de extrato de guaraná. Após, realizou-se os testes MTT, Pico Green®, atividade das enzimas catalase e superóxido dismutase e tióis (viabilidade celular); TBARS, diclorodihidrofloresceína e carbonilação de proteínas (metabolismo oxidativo). Os resultados indicaram que a vincristina pode causar efeitos citotóxicos em cerebelo e cérebro de camundongos e que o guaraná pode reverter essa citotoxicidade, principalmente nas concentrações de 100 e 300 μg/mL.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the influence of physical exercise on the levels of oxidative stress in cardiac tissue after the inhalation of cigarette smoke in rats. Rats were divided into four groups: (a) non-smokers + non-exercised (NS+NE); (b) non-smokers + exercised (NS+E); (c) smokers + non-exercised (S+NE); and (d) smokers + exercised (S+E). The cigarette smoke was inhaled during 30 min, twice a day, and then extended to 10 cigarettes for 30 min twice a day. Physical exercise was performed on a treadmill. The initial velocity was 10 m·min
-1 increasing up to the mark of 30 m·min-1 . Cardiac tissue lipoperoxidation (LPO) estimation was performed using the TBARS method. The values were expressed in levels of malondialdehyde (MDA), and enzymatic antioxidant defense was measured by catalase (CAT) activity. These findings indicate that the physical exercise induced lower levels of LPO and increased CAT activity, which attenuated the oxidative stress induced by exposure to cigarette smoke.

- Abstract
Nowadays there is an increase in the number of people taking herbals worldwide. Scutia buxifolia is used for the treatment of hypertension, but little is known about its action on liver. Thirty-two Wistar rats were divided into four groups: control and groups treated during 30 days with 100, 200 and 400 mg of lyophilized aqueous extract of S. buxifolia (SBSB)/kg of body weight. This study was planned to explore hepatotoxic effect of SBSB, which was assessed by serum transaminases (ALT and AST). Thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) levels were determined in liver, along with thiols content (NPSH), catalase (CAT) activity and, superoxide dismutase (SOD) enzymes. Histopathological studies of liver tissue were performed. Flavonoids and phenolics were quantified in SBSB by high performance liquid chromatography with diode array detection (HPLC/DAD). We did not observe alterations on redox status (TBARS, NPSH, CAT and, SOD) in the control and experimental groups. An increase on AST activity was only observed at 200 mg of SBSB, whereas ALT score was not affected by SBSB. Moreover, no morphological alterations were observed on the hepatocytes, matching the analysed biochemical parameters. This way, we conclude that SBSB was not toxic.
