Item Acesso aberto (Open Access) Doadores de sangue positivos em triagem sorológica para doença de Chagas no Acre: necessidade de adequação e orientação diagnóstica(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2011-01-24) SILVA, Pablo Rodrigo de Andrade e; PÓVOA, Marinete Marins; http://lattes.cnpq.br/2256328599939923This study, which involved 77,893 blood donors who attended for the first time the Blood Center of Acre, from January 1997 to December 2008, aimed to: 1) to identify individuals with positive serology for Chagas disease, 2) characterize clinically, individuals with positive serology for Chagas' disease and 3) properly orient individuals serologically positive for therapy advocated. The sample consisted of 91.6% of male patients, with an average age around 47, all residents of the state of Acre. Serological screening was performed with the application of the ELISA positive results with 102 of these, 12 were included and subjected to confirmatory testing, of whom 11 had confirmed the positive result. According to the evaluation of complementary exams (ECG, echocardiography and endoscopy), a donor had installed the cardiac and the other an indeterminate form of the disease. You must provide the confirmatory test for Chagas disease in the routine of blood banks in order to ensure timely referral to a qualified medical assistance to that blood donor who became Chagas’ patients.Item Acesso aberto (Open Access) Soroprevalência e caracterização molecular do Vírus da imunodeficiência humana (HIV) e do Vírus linfotrópico de células T humanas (HTLV) em mulheres profissionais do sexo do Estado do Pará, Brasil(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2007-08-03) SOUSA, Ronaldo Lopes de; MACHADO, Luiz Fernando Almeida; http://lattes.cnpq.br/8099461017092882The Women’s Professional of the Sex (WPS) constitute a vulnerable population to the acquisition of sexually transmissible illnesses (STI) in virtue of the type of activity that they play. The present work had as objective to describe the serumprevalency of the infection and the molecular characterization of the HIV and the HTLV of WPS of the State of Pará, Brazil. Blood sample’s of 339 WPS were collected, being 105 proceeding from the city of Barcarena, 31 of the city of Augusto Correa, 98 of the city of Bragança and 105 of the city of Belém, in the period of April of 2005 the August of 2006. All the plasma samples had been tested for the presence of antibodies anti-HTLV-1/2 and anti-HIV-1/2, by means of the use of a immune enzimatic assay. The prevalence of the HIV-1 and the HTLV-1 in the studied population was of 2,36% and 1,77%, respectively. The amplification of the gene pro of the HIV-1 disclosed subtypes B and F, whereas the samples of HTLV, had been classified as HTLV-1 of the Cosmopolita subtype of the Transcontinental sub-group. It had a significant association of the infection for the HIV-1 with the age band, the number of partners per week and with the capricious use of condoms. However, the infection for the HTLV-1 alone showed significant association in relation to the capricious use of condom. The sexual relation was the most likely way of acquisition of the infection for the two viral agents, considering that the report of use of injective drugs was rare. Being thus, the WPS need bigger attention of the public agencies of health, specially in relation to the prevention and monitoring of transmissible agents by sexual pathways, as these can be important in the acquisition and dissemination of these agents.
