Full textBackground Posterior canal benign paroxysmal positional vertigo is a prevalent condition in primary care consultations. Its diagnostic approach consists of a medical history and physical examination, and its treatment is the Epley manoeuvre.There is scarce evidence on the effectiveness of the Epley manœuvre in Primary Care. Aim To study the effectiveness at 1 week, 1 month, and 1 year of a single Epley manoeuvre versus a sham manoeuvre in primary care. Design and Setting Multicentre, double-blind randomised controlled trial. Two primary care practices. Method Patients > 18 years diagnosed with subjective or objective posterior canal benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (vertigo only or vertigo and nystagmus) after a Dix-Hallpike test (PDH). Intervention group: Epley manoeuvre. Control group: sham manoeuvre. Betahistine was prescribed following the same regimen in both groups to enable between-group comparisons. Main outcome measures: Response to the PDH, classified as negative, positive for vertigo only or for nystagmus and vertigo (Positive PDH), positive for both vertigo and nystagmus (Positive PDH with nistagmus), positive for vertigo only (Positive PDH without nistagmus) ; self-reported resolution of vertigo; and self-reported severity of vertigo evaluated on a 10-point Likert scale (10=worst imaginable vertigo). Evaluations at 1 week, 1 month and 1 year. Results The intervention group showed in the analysis not adjusted for week 1, a positive PDH with nistagmus rate of 21.54% in the control group and 6.67% in the intervention group (p=0.022). The severity of vertigo in the first week was 5 in the control group and 3 in the intervention group (p=0.086). The effectiveness of the Epley manoeuvre was influenced by the presence of baseline PDH with nistagmus in the multivariate analyses. In this subgroup of patients, there was a decrease in the probability of having a positive PDH and a decrease of 2 points in the perceived severity of vertigo as a response to ME. Discussion The results of the study showed a significant decrease of more than three times in the positive PDH with nistagmus in the first week and a decrease in the severity of the vertigo of 2 points with figures close to statistical significance in the unadjusted analyzes, while in the analyzes multivariate the effectiveness of ME was conditioned by the presence of PDH with nistagmus at the baseline visit. In the multivariate analyzes, in the patients with positive PDH with nystagmus at the baseline visit, a reduction in the severity of vertigo was observed (marginal effect for the Likert-type question = -1.73 [-2.95, -0, 51]) and better rates of positive PDH in the intervention group (adjusted odds ratio = 0.095 [0.010], 0.924]). Conclusions A single Epley manoeuvre performed in primary care is an effective treatment for reversing a Positive PDH and reducing vertigo severity in patients with nystagmus in the PDH at baseline.

Full textBenign paroxysmal positioning vertigo (BPPV) is the most common syndrome in a dizziness unit. It is characterized by brief attacks of vertigo and can be easily diagnosed with the Dix-Hallpike test on the basis of its typical nystagmus. Canalolithiasis, a process in which free particles float freely within the endolymph of the semicircular canal, is the underlying mechanism of BPPV. In 1980 Brandt and Daroff, were the first to suggest that BPPV could be treated by simple exercises because of its mechanical pathogenesis. Later Semont and colleages in 1988 and Epley in 1992 proposed different maneuvers, which reportedly yielded good results after two treatment sessions. Recently a modified Epley maneuver was proposed for use as self-treatment of BPPV. The aims of our study were: (1) to analyze the efficacy of self treatment (2) to compare the efficacy of Semont maneuver, modified Epley maneuver, and Brandt-Daroff exercises during self-treatment of posterior BPPV; (3) to evaluate the efficacy of these maneuvers after two and four weeks of self-treatment; (4) to analyze the effect of a second maneuver if the first one failed; (5) to evaluate if assistance of relatives or inaccuracies in performing the maneuvers may interfere in the results; and (6) to determine possible prognostic factors of BPPV . Sixty patients (38 women) aged 26 to 87 years (mean 63.5) were randomly assigned for one of the three treatment options: Semont maneuver, modified Epley maneuver, and Brandt- Daroff exercises. All patients showed a typical nystagmus of posterior canal-BPPV during the positional test. Ten patients were lost to follow-up and therefore not included in the analysis. The remaining 50 patients were distributed among the treatment options as follows: Brandt-Daroff exercises, n=17; Semont maneuver, n=18; modified Epley maneuver, n=15. Each treatment option had to be performed in three daily sessions consisting of 10 repetitions for Brandt-Daroff exercises and 3 repetitions for Semont maneuver and modified Epley maneuver. On the first visit the assigned maneuver was done with the examiner assistance and afterwards it was performed by the patient alone. Clinical revaluation occurred on weekly intervals. BPPV was considered resolved only in those patients who had neither vertigo nor nystagmus on the positional testing. Patients were asked to demonstrate the maneuver, so that their accuracy could be determined. After 7 days those patients in whom BPPV had resolved were instructed to interrupt the maneuver, whereas those without remission were required to perform the same initial maneuver for another 7 days. After 14 days of self-treatment the remission rates were 29% for those performing BDE, 72% for SM and 80% for MEM (p=0,019, log rank test). Twenty patients were still symptomatic after 14 days, 11 of these patients were instructed to perform the same initial procedure (group 1), 8 were instructed to execute another maneuver (group 2), and 1 was missed to follow-up (Table 1). Five (45%) patients in group 1 and five (62%) in group 2 were asymptomatic after another 14 days of treatment (p=0,93, log rank test;). We conclude from our data that (1) self-treatment of BPPV has a good efficacy ; (2) SM and MEM are both equally efficient and better than BDE; (3) half of all patients who remain symptomatic after a 2-week treatment, may benefit from a 4-week self-treatment; (4) equivalent results are achieved by performing one or two maneuvers during a 4-week self-treatment; (5) accurate performance and assistance of relatives did not improve the outcome; and (6) age, gender, etiology, duration of symptoms before treatment were not predictive of outcome

Full textAcute toxic insults to the mammalian vestibular system cause loss of the sensory hair cells and subsequent loss of equilibrium. In animal models, many studies have demonstrated apoptosis, sometimes necrosis, of the hair cells. In most mammalian species the functional loss is permanent because the hair cells do not regenerate. Human vestibular dysfunction most commonly arises progressively as a result of chronic exposure to ototoxic compounds such as the aminoglycoside antibiotics. If the exposure is discontinued, a highly variable degree of recovery is observed, being either complete, only partial, or minimal with persistent dysfunction. The cellular and molecular bases of the vestibular dysfunction associated with chronic toxicity and of its remarkable variability in the degree of recovery are not established. One reason for this limited knowledge is the scarcity of animal studies of chronic vestibular toxicity, owing to, at least in part, the resiliency of rats and mice to aminoglycoside ototoxicity. Ototoxic nitriles offer an alternative model to study vestibular toxicity in these species. A particularly dependable model is the one of chronic drinking water exposure of rats to 3,3’-iminodipropionitrile (IDPN). We have established a protocol to study the vestibular sensory epithelia simultaneously by scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy and confocal immunofluorescence microscopy in rats previously assessed for vestibular dysfunction during chronic ototoxic exposure followed by variable times of recovery. This allows identifying the structural and molecular events associated with the loss and recovery of vestibular function. Initial data indicate that a deep but fully reversible functional loss is associated with synaptic and afferent damage and intact ciliary structure. With continued IDPN exposure, hair cell damage and more persistent functional are observed. We hypothesize that similar events occur in humans and are relevant to chronic damage, including that associated with age.

Resumo: As alterações no processo de aprendizagem e/ou atraso na aquisição da linguagem constituem parte das queixas relatadas na clínica pediátrica, neurológica, neuropsicológica e fonoaudiológica infantil. Além disso, altas taxas de reprovações em escolares que ingressam no primeiro ciclo têm despertado a atenção dos especialistas que atendem crianças em idade escolar. Dentre os fatores básicos para a aprendizagem encontram-se a postura, o equilíbrio e a coordenação motora. Em conjunto com o sistema nervoso central, a função do sistema vestibular é controlar a posição do corpo, os movimentos dos olhos e a percepção espacial, e assim, ele é tido hoje como um dos responsáveis pelo desenvolvimento infantil. Esta pesquisa buscou avaliar a função vestibular em crianças com queixas de dificuldades escolares bem como suas queixas vestibulares. Foi realizada em duas importantes etapas, sendo que inicialmente foram estudadas 50 crianças e posteriormente 88 crianças, todas entre 7 e 12 anos, que freqüentavam escolas públicas da cidade de Piracicaba durante os anos de 2004 a 2006. Os procedimentos utilizados foram: a anamnese; exame otorrinolaringológico; exame audiológico e avaliação vestibular. Nos resultados iniciais notamos que 38,0% das crianças referiram ter dificuldades escolares. Quando aumentamos a amostra observamos que 49,0% das crianças referiram essas dificuldades. No questionamento das queixas referidas mais comuns, pudemos observar que a queixa referida de ¿atordoação¿ apresentou uma relação estatisticamente significante nas crianças com queixas de dificuldades escolares em comparação às crianças sem queixas de dificuldades escolares e posteriormente foi acrescida a queixa referida de ¿tontura¿. Ao demonstrar os percentuais dos sintomas referidos mais comuns no ambiente escolar entre as crianças estudadas pudemos notar que, no primeiro momento, o sintoma referido de ¿náuseas¿ apresentou uma relação estatisticamente significante entre as crianças com queixas de dificuldades escolares e posteriormente, com a amostra ampliada, acrescentou-se o sintoma referido de ¿vômito¿. Ambas as amostras, sem haver discrepância, demonstraram um grande desconforto em brincadeiras que exigem integridade das funções vestibulares e suas interligações como: pular corda; andar de bicicleta e ¿brincar no gira-gira¿ apresentando uma diferença estatisticamente significante. Com relação às queixas específicas de aprendizagem escolar, verificamos que as dificuldades em ¿ler¿ e ¿copiar¿ apresentaram uma relação estatisticamente significante nas crianças com queixas de dificuldades escolares, em ambas as amostras, notando-se uma expressiva semelhança. Os dados obtidos na pesquisa da função vestibular em sua fase inicial foram reiterados no estudo final em que foi encontrado alto índice de exame vestibular normal nas crianças sem queixas de dificuldades escolares e baixo índice de normalidade nas crianças com queixas de dificuldades escolares. Todas as alterações vestibulares encontradas foram de origem periférica irritativa tanto unilateral quanto bilateral, revelando uma disfunção vestibular frente à excitação labiríntica provocando hiperatividade vestibular. Os dados mostraram uma relação estatisticamente significante nas crianças com queixas de dificuldades escolares ao serem comparadas às crianças sem queixas de dificuldades escolares
Abstract: Alterations in the learning process and/or delay in the acquisition of language account for complaints in children¿s pediatric, neurological, neuropsychological and phonoadiological clinic. Moreover, high rates of school failure in first cycle students have called the attention of specialists who assist children in school age. Amongst the basic factors for learning there are posture, equilibrium and motor coordination. Together with the central nervous system, the function of the vestibular system is to control the body position, eyes movements and space perception, this system is today taken to be one of the responsible for children¿s development. This research aimed to evaluate vestibular function in children with complaints of school difficulties as well as their complaints regarding the vestibular system. Was carried through in two important stages; initially 50 children were studied and later 88 children, all between age 7 and 12, which frequented public schools of the city of Piracicaba from 2004 to 2006. The procedures used were: anamnesis; otorhinolaryngological examination; audiologic examination and vestibular evaluation. In the initial results we noticed that 38.0% reported had school difficulties. When we increased the sample data we noticed that 49.0% of children referring school difficulties. In the study of the most common complaints reported, we could observe that the complaint reported of "stunnedness" had a statistically significant relation in children with school difficulties complaints compared to children without school difficulties complaints and later the complaint reported of "giddiness" was added. When considering the percentages of the most common symptoms reported in the school environment among the studied children we could notice that at first the symptom reported of "nauseas" presented a statistically significant relation among children with school difficulties complaints and that later, with the extended sample, the ¿vomit" symptom reported was added. Both samples demonstrate with no discrepancies a great discomfort in playful activities that demand integrity of vestibular function and its interconnections: to rope jumping; to ride a bicycle and to play in the turning wheel presenting a statistically significant difference regarding children with and without school difficulties complaints. As concerns o school difficulties complaints linked to school performance, we verified that "reading" and "copying" difficulties had a statistically significant relation in children with school difficulties complaints in both samples and there was an expressive similarity. Data collected by the research on vestibular function in its initial phase were confirmed in the final study: a high rate of normal vestibular function in children without school difficulties complaints was found and a low rate of normality in children with school difficulties complaints. All vestibular alterations found had peripheral irritative origin, both unilateral and bilateral, showing a vestibular dysfunction linked to labyrinth excitement provoking vestibular hyperactivity. Data had a statistically significant relation in children with school difficulties complaints compared to children without school difficulties complaints

Full textObjective: To evaluate the type and frequency of vestibular alteration through vectoelectronystagmography in individuals with temporomandibular disorder (TMD) muscle. Method: The study included 25 female patients, aged 18 to 44 years old with muscular TMD, classified according to the criteria of the questionnaire that has been validated by Research Diagnostic Criteria for Temporomandibular Disorders (RDC). All subjects underwent otoneurologicalavaliation consisting of anamnesis, otoscopyand computerized vectoelectronystagmography. Results: There were only three subjects with altered vectoelectronystagmography (modification of post-caloric nystagmus). There was a high occurrence of otoneurological symptoms, including dizziness (96%), intolerance to loud sounds, motion sickness (76%), insomnia (72%), fullness (64%) and tinnitus (52%). The muscles that had a prevalence of pain on palpation were temporal muscle tendon (96%), lateral pterygoid (96%), the middle portion of masseter (92%) and the lower masseter (68%). There was no statistically significant difference between individuals with and without changes in vectonystagmography on the main otoneurological symptoms.There was also no statistically significant difference between women with and without vertigo with respect to pain on palpation in the muscles studied. Conclusion: Individuals with TMD of muscular type showed a low rate of vestibular disorders revealed by the computerized vectoelectronystagmography despite the high occurrence of otoneurological symptoms.

Full textDizziness is considered by the medical field as a public health problem. Understanding body balance disorders, such as limiting one of the fundamental systems for individual survival, helps to understand the importance and necessity of a quick and accurate diagnostic approach. The evaluation of signs found in the vestibular evaluation, and the patient\'s complaint, is fundamental for the diagnosis, being extremely important the exploratory evaluation of the vestibular system, so that therapeutic therapeutic measures are adopted. Vestibular Rehabilitation (VR) is a therapeutic resource performed through exercises that aim to improve vestibulovisual interaction during head movement and to increase static and dynamic postural stability in conditions that produce conflicting sensory information. Aim: To verify the efficacy of a group VR therapeutic protocol, applied to individuals with vestibular complaints, considering the following variables: gender, age, tinnitus and influence of the location of vestibular system impairment identified by vectoelectronystagmography (VENG). Methods: Descriptive and retrospective study, based on the analysis of medical records of 151 patients seen in the DSA of HRACUSP. The casuistry was delimited from the analysis of medical records of patients of both genders, aged between 10 and 88 years. Inclusion criteria were: vestibular complaints, VENG pre VR in group, response to Dizziness Handicap Inventory (DHI) and Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) for the symptoms of dizziness and tinnitus, in the pre- and post-intervention stages. The VR was composed of 13 sessions of approximately 60 minutes, following a specific protocol elaborated for VR in a group. The statistical treatment was composed by the Test T, McNemar, Friedmann, Chi- Square, Fisher, Binominal and Kolmogorov-Smirnov tests. Significance (p) value was adopted equal to or less than 0.05. Results: The results obtained were compared with the results obtained for each classification level (p=0,001). In the analysis of VAS, there was a difference between the discount of dizziness (variance value = 0,000 to 0,092), or discomfort related to tinnitus (p=0,001). There was a difference in the evaluation of vestibular evaluation through VENG before and after VR (p=0,003). There was no correlation between age (p=0,610) and VR efficacy, with correlation with gender (p=0,028). There was a difference between the VENG results between the previous phases of the group (p=0,001). In the correlation between the VAS and the variables, there was a correlation with the female gender (p=0,000), with all age groups, except for 10 to 20 years (p=0,125) from 21 to 90 years and with peripheral vestibular impairment (p=0,000). Conclusion: The group VR protocol applied to patients with vestibular complaints was effective for complaint of dizziness and tinnitus, regardless of age. The female had more benefits with an VR than the male sex. VR was effective for all types of vestibular compromise, including findings identified as normal.

INTRODUCTION: Dizziness is a very common symptom and it affects mainly adults and the elderly. It can lead to significant damage, disrupting the patient´s quality of life. Considering the high prevalence of reported dizziness in the population, many studies have been carried out in order to both identify its possible causes and develop speech therapy intervention techniques. OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the benefits of speech therapy intervention in adults and elderly people with dizziness. METHOD: Prospective and longitudinal clinical study conducted on a sample of 20 patients with complaints of dizziness, of both sexes and aged between 48 and 85 years of age (average of 66 years of age). All subjects were referred to vestibular rehabilitation by medical indication and they underwent ten sessions of exercises based and adapted from the Cawthorne (1944) and Cooksey (1946) Protocol. In addition, we applied the Dizziness Handicap Inventory (DHI), the Geriatric Depression Scale (GDS) and the Dizziness Quantification Scale questionnaires in three moments: before the intervention, at the fifth session of speech therapy intervention and after the tenth session. At the end of the ten sessions, all subjects answered a question concerning the improvement of the dizziness symptomatology. We used the questionnaires in the three moments of intervention both for comparison purposes and for the assessment of the effectiveness of the treatment. RESULTS: After the intervention, 17 subjects (85%) showed improvement in the DHI score and 18 (90%) reported improvement in the dizziness symptomatology. In spite of the fact that the three tests had a decrease in average in the three moments, we observed intervention interference only in relation to the DHI. The symptoms of depression, anxiety and insecurity were considered as influence variables in the intervention results. Cronbach’s Alpha showed that the DHI delivers a good consistency level, whereas GDS-5 showed only reasonable significance. CONCLUSION: The speech therapy intervention on dizziness proved to be effective. We observed there was a greater benefit in the 10-session intervention, when compared to the 5-session intervention. The use of questionnaires to assess the result of the interventions is an important instrument in the assessment of the treatment effectiveness. However, self-reference and clinical hearing should be taken into account
INTRODUÇÃO: a tontura é um sintoma muito comum e afeta principalmente adultos e idosos. Pode levar a prejuízos significativos, atrapalhando a qualidade de vida. Considerando a alta prevalência da queixa de tontura na população, muitos estudos têm sido realizados com o objetivo tanto de identificar as possíveis causas, quanto de desenvolver técnicas de intervenção fonoaudiológica. OBJETIVO: avaliar o benefício da intervenção fonoaudiológica em adultos e idosos com tontura. MÉTODO: estudo clínico prospectivo e longitudinal realizado em uma amostra de 20 pacientes com queixa de tontura, de ambos os sexos e com idade entre 48 e 85 anos (média de 66 anos). Todos os sujeitos foram encaminhados para reabilitação vestibular por indicação médica e realizaram dez sessões de exercícios, baseados e adaptados do Protocolo de Cawthorne (1944) e Cooksey (1946). Além disso, foram aplicados os questionários Dizziness Handicap Inventory (DHI), Escala Geriátrica de Depressão (GDS) e Escala de Quantificação da Tontura (QT) em três momentos: antes da intervenção, na 5ª sessão de intervenção fonoaudiológica e após a décima sessão. No término das dez sessões, todos responderam a uma questão referente à melhoria do sintoma de tontura. Os questionários foram utilizados para fins comparativos entre os três momentos da intervenção e para avaliação da efetividade do tratamento. RESULTADOS: após a intervenção, 17 sujeitos (85%) apresentaram melhora no escore do DHI e 18 (90%) relataram melhora do sintoma de tontura. Apesar dos três testes terem tido diminuição das médias nos três momentos, foi observada interferência da intervenção apenas em relação ao DHI. Os sintomas de depressão, ansiedade e insegurança foram considerados como variáveis de influência nos resultados das intervenções. O Alfa de Conbrach mostrou que o DHI apresenta um bom nível de consistência, já a GDS-15 demonstrou significância razoável. CONCLUSÃO: a intervenção fonoaudiológica na tontura mostrou-se efetiva. Foi observado maior benefício quanto a intervenção com 10 sessões, quando comparado a 5 sessões. O uso de questionários para verificar o resultado das intervenções consiste em um importante instrumento de avaliação da efetividade do tratamento. Entretanto, a auto-referência e a escuta clínica devem ser valorizadas

Scope: To describe the vestibular complaints and/or symptoms found in otoneurological clinical practice and investigate the relationship between these and vestibulometry. Method: A study was performed by retrospective analysis of the medical records of 116 individuals examined in the otoneurological sector of the Institute of Advanced Studies in Audition during the period from January 2004 through November 2005. Results: The findings showed that the sample was comprised of 86 (74.1%) females and 30 (25.9%) males. The age bracket ranged from 18 to 82 years (50 years average). The vestibular evaluation revealed normal results in 66 individuals and altered results in 50. The otoneurological complaints and/or symptoms reported by the individuals were: dizziness, vertigo, tinnitus, perspiration, headaches, heaviness in the head and walking disturbances. Among the neurovegetative symptoms, nausea proved to be significant (p=0.004). The analysis of the isolated dizziness/vertigo complaint, in comparison with the variable vestibular exam (normal/altered) did not produce any statistically significant association. On the other hand, when the complaint of vertigo appeared in association with tinnitus, a considerable number of altered exam results were observed. Conclusion: Based on the data gathered, it can be seen that the fact that a patient records a complaint of isolated dizziness/vertigo does not signify that the vestibular exam will necessarily be altered. However, the association of vertigo + tinnitus reveals itself to be indicative of altered exam results. Therefore, a comparison of the clinical history of patients with vestibulometric symptoms is fundamental for establishing the diagnostic hypothesis
Objetivo: Descrever a queixa e/ou os sintomas vestibulares encontrados na clínica otoneurológica e investigar a relação destes com a vestibulometria. Método: Efetuou-se um estudo por meio da análise retrospectiva dos prontuários de 116 sujeitos examinados no setor de otoneurologia do Instituto de Estudos Avançados da Audição no período de janeiro de 2004 a novembro de 2005. Resultados: Os achados mostraram que a amostra foi constituída por 86 (74,1%) sujeitos do sexo feminino e 30 (25,9%) do sexo masculino. A faixa etária variou de 18 e 82 anos (média 50 anos). A avaliação vestibular mostrou resultados normais em 66 sujeitos e resultados alterados em 50. As queixas e/ou sintomas otoneurológicos referidos pelos sujeitos foram: tontura, vertigem, zumbido, náusea, sudorese, cefaléia, peso na cabeça e distúrbios à marcha. Dentre os sintomas neurovegetativos, a náusea apresentou-se bastante significativa (p=0,004). A análise da queixa de tontura/vertigem isolada, em comparação com a variável exame vestibular (normal/alterado), não apresentou associação estatisticamente significante. Por outro lado, quando a queixa de vertigem apareceu associada a zumbido, observou-se um número considerável de exames alterados. Conclusão: Com base nos dados encontrados, verifica-se que o fato de o paciente apresentar queixa de tontura/vertigem isolada não significa que o resultado do exame vestibular estará necessariamente alterado. Todavia, a associação vertigem + zumbido mostra-se sugestiva de exame alterado. Sendo assim, comparar a história clínica dos pacientes com os achados vestibulométricos é fundamental para o estabelecimento da hipótese diagnóstica

Full textA avaliação otoneurológica consiste em exames para investigação de patologias auditivas e vestibulares, entre eles o potencial evocado de tronco encefálico e a vectoeletronistagmografia. Os potenciais evocados são utilizados em casos de suspeita de acometimento neural periférico e/ou de tronco encefálico, raramente indicado para sujeitos com queixas isoladas de vertigem, tontura ou desequilíbrio, de forma que sua contribuição na avaliação desses pacientes é pouco conhecida. Este estudo tem como objetivo descrever os achados da avaliação otoneurológica em pacientes com queixas vestibulococleares, normo-ouvintes e com perda auditiva, comparando os resultados do PEATE ao grupo-controle. Foram avaliados 66 pacientes e formaram-se os grupos A com 31 pacientes sintomáticos normo-ouvintes com média de idade de 40 anos, o grupo B com 25 pacientes sintomáticos e com perda auditiva, média de 58 anos de idade, e o grupo-controle, média de 26 anos, constituído por dez pacientes normo-ouvintes sem queixas vestibulares ou auditivas. Exames auditivos, vestibulares e eletrofisiológico foram realizados no Centro Clínico Mãe de Deus Center, em Porto Alegre, cujos dados foram agrupados conforme a sintomatologia e os resultados dos exames. Pela análise estatística ANOVA e teste F verificou-se a significância dos resultados eletrofisiológicos confrontados com o grupo-controle. Os pacientes dos grupos A e B apresentaram aumento em monobloco das latências absolutas das ondas I, III e V estatisticamente significativa, quando comparados ao grupo-controle, embora com valores dentro da normalidade. A ausência da onda I ocorreu em ambos os grupos, normo-ouvintes e com perda auditiva. Nos dois casos do grupo B em que a vectoeletronistagmografia acusou alteração vestibular central não foram verificadas alterações nos parâmetros eletrofisiológicos. Conclusão: os pacientes com sintomas vestibulares diferiram do grupo-controle quanto aos resultados eletrofisiológicos.

Full textIntrodução: A tontura é observada entre 5 e 10% da população mundial, atingindo ambos os gêneros. Pode ser de dois tipos: rotatória (vertigem) ou não rotatória. As crises de tontura podem prejudicar a vida do paciente, levando à redução do convívio social e dificultando as atividades de vida diária. O tipo de tontura rotatória mais comum é a Vertigem Posicional Paroxística Benigna. Os episódios geralmente são rápidos e desencadeados pelo movimento de cabeça, podendo ser acompanhado de náuseas, vômitos e queda. O diagnóstico de vertigem posicional paroxística benigna é realizado através da manobra de Dix-Halpike, que verifica a presença de nistagmo e/ou tontura. Não há relatos de alteração nos testes convencionais de pacientes com queixa de Vertigem Posicional Paroxística Benigna. Isto é verificado apenas na vectoeletronistagmografia. O tratamento desse tipo de vertigem é realizado pela manobra de reposição canalítica. Objetivo: verificar os resultados encontrados nas avaliações realizadas pelos pacientes com Vertigem Posicional Paroxística Benigna, com ênfase nos resultados encontrados na vectoeletronistagmografia e sua relação com o canal semicircular afetado. Material e Método: o estudo foi realizado no ambulatório de otologia do Hospital Universitário de Santa Maria. A amostra foi composta por todos os pacientes que compareceram ao ambulatório com queixa de vertigem posicional paroxística benigna. Os pacientes realizaram anamnese, manobra de Dix-Halpike, vectoeletronistagmografia e manobra de Epley. Estes foram divididos em dois grupos: grupo controle, composto pelos pacientes com resultado negativo na manobra de Dix-Halpike, e grupo estudo, composto pelos pacientes com resultado positivo nesta manobra. Resultados: Houve prevalência do sexo feminino entre os pacientes e a média de idade foi de 57 anos. O canal semicircular mais afetado foi posterior e a teoria que prevaleceu foi a ductolitíase. O número médio de manobras necessárias para abolir o nistagmo de posicionamento é 1,58 e houve 4 (6,9%) casos de recidiva. Quando analisada as provas da vectoeletronistagmografia, foi observada presença de nistagmo espontâneo e alteração na prova rotatória pendular decrescente. Entretanto, essas alterações não estão relacionadas com o canal semicircular afetado. Na prova calórica houve predomínio da normorreflexia. Conclusão: A manobra de Epley é eficaz para pacientes com vertigem posicional paroxística benigna, mesmo nos casos em que ocorrem recidivas. As alterações encontradas na vectoeletronistagmografia não estão relacionadas com o canal semicircular afetado. De fato, essas alterações são decorrentes da presença de nistagmo espontâneo e nistagmo latente. Consequentemente, não foi possível verificar outros métodos para o diagnóstico da vertigem posicional paroxística benigna.

O presente trabalho busca estabelecer as diretrizes de uma política estética eficaz na pós-modernidade, entendida aqui como o estágio mais avançado do capitalismo (e não como um conceito meramente estético). Para tanto, parte-se do esmiuçamento de um fundamental capítulo da história da modernidade estética - qual seja, o 'debate sobre o expressionismo'- bem como da relação entre Walter Benjamin, importante teórico da modernidade, e Bertolt Brecht, dramaturgo alemão vanguardista. Com isso, extrai-se ensinamentos e categorias interpretativas fundamentais à prática da crítica cultural, que são pensadas em relação ao grupo Teatro da Vertigem - manifestação cultural com origem na década de 90, na cidade de São Paulo (Brasil). Tal grupo apresenta como principal característica um tratamento diferenciado à categoria espaço, permitindo assim sua contraposição com a estética do mapeamento, tal como entendida pelo teórico Fredric Jameson em seu Pós-Modernismo: a lógica cultural do capitalismo tardio. Por outro lado, verifica-se também a presença, no grupo, de características que o aproximam da lógica da indústria cultural, fenômeno caracterizador da cultura na atualidade. Portanto, por meio da análise do grupo Teatro da Vertigem, que desponta como a manifestação cultural atual que mais se aproxima de uma estética emancipatória, adentra-se no universo das contradições culturais da contemporaneidade.
The present work aims to establish the directives of an efficient political aesthetic in the post-modernism, here defined as the most advanced stage of the capitalism (and not merely an aesthetic concept). Therefore, it departs from a detailed and fundamental chapter of the history of the aesthetic modernity - that is, the 'debate of the expressionism' - as well as the relation between Walter Benjamin, an important theoretician of modernity, and Bertold Brecht, a vanguard German dramatist. With this, lessons and interpretative categories fundamental to the practice of culture criticism are extracted, based on the relation to the Vertigo Theater - a cultural manifestation originated in the nineties, at São Paulo city (Brazil). This group presents as main characteristic a distinctive treatment to the category of space, permiting your contraposition with the aesthetic of special-cognitive mapping, as point the theoretician Fredric Jameson in his Post-Modernism: the cultural logic of tardy capitalism. Nevertheless, it is also verified in the group the presence of characteristics that approaches it to the logic of cultural industry, a characterizing phenomenon of the culture in the actuality. Hence, through the analysis of the Vertigo Theater group, which emerges as an actuality manifest culture closer to an emancipating aesthetic, it is possible to enter into the universe of culture contradictions of the contemporaneity.

Resumo: A osteoartrite (OA), osteoartrose, ou ainda doença articular degenerativa é enfermidade que tem sido muito estudada em razão do grande número de pessoas acometidas por ela. A espondilose cervical é o tipo de osteoartrite que acomete a coluna cervical e é também conhecida pela sua grande incidência. Os trabalhos disponíveis na literatura e que estudaram a OA limitaram-se fundamentalmente à sua etiologia, métodos diagnósticos, marcadores bioquímicos e formas de tratamento, não considerando, no entanto, algumas queixas apresentadas por esses pacientes sobre alguns sinais e sintomas auditivos como as disacusias, os zumbidos e as tonturas, muitas vezes presentes e relatados pelos pacientes por ela acometidos. Este estudo analisou em uma amostra de 50 pacientes, a prevalência de sinais e sintomas auditivos em portadores de espondilose cervical através da anamnese e da avaliação audiométrica e da vectoeletronistagmografia. Verificou-se através das respostas obtidas na anamnese que 44% (22) dos enfermos consideravam sua audição boa, enquanto 56% (28 pacientes) não. Dentre esses pacientes, encontraram-se em 33% deles alterações na orelha direita, 48% na orelha esquerda e em 19% alterações nas duas orelhas. Na avaliação dos resultados dos exames audiométricos (audiometria tonal) encontrou-se ainda uma maior porcentagem de indivíduos com uma alteração auditiva nas freqüências altas (4,6,8Hz) (52%,66%,66%) na orelha esquerda e na orelha direita somente na freqüência de 6 Hz (56%). Em relação à presença de zumbidos, 36 (72%) pacientes relataram a sua presença. Quando verificada a ocorrência de vertigem, 37 (74%) dos 50 pacientes a apresentaram, no entanto, os exames de vectoeletronistagmografia foram normais. conclui-se, portanto, que há prevalência de sinais e sintomas otológicos em portadores de espondilose cervical, embora eles não apareçam, necessariamente, concomitantemente, sendo que a vertigem aparece com maior freqüência, seguida por zumbido e, logo após, pela hipoacusia
Abstract: The osteoarthiris (OA) is the most common rheumatologic disease and cervical spondylosis is the OA on the cervical spine. It has been well studied in the past few years, mainly due to its high prevalence, as well as the costs to the health systems all over the world. The great majority of those studies have been focusing on its pathophysiologic aspects, etiology, diagnosis and its treatment. However few studies considered some symptoms that cervical spondylosis carriers can present, such as tinnitus and vertigo, in a such way frequent in the practical clinic. The aim of this study was to analyze in a sample of 50 patients with cervical spondylosis the auditory prevalence of signs and symptoms. It was observed that 56% of them (28 patients) didn't consider their audition as ?Good?, whereas 44% (22 patients) didn?t have any complaint. Among those subjects that didn't consider audition good the right ear was reported with deficit by 33%, the left ear by 48% and by 19% patients, both ears had problems.All patients underwent to a tonal audiometric evaluation. Its was observed a greater percentage of individuals with an audition "No Good" in the high (4, 6, 8Hz) (52%, 66%, 66% respectively) frequencies in the left ear and in the frequency of 6 Hz (56%) in the right ear. The results showed that 36 (72%) patients presented tinnitus complaint. When it verified the complaint of vertigo, 37 (74%) patients presented complaint, whose examinations of vectography had been normal. We concluded that there is a connection between signs and hearing symptoms, such as hearing loss, tinnitus e vertigo, among the patients with cervical spondylosis, suggesting that more studies in this area are required

Full textVestibular rehabilitation is a treatment?s program based on exercises, associated with a factor?s collection related to changing habits and guidance about symptoms associates to unbalance. It is harmless, coherent and physiologic therapy method that intends to work the dizzy patient, relieving the symptoms and increasing his vertigo?s threshold. The Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo is the one most frequent adult?s pathologies of the peripheral vestibular?s system. It is caused by the utricle?s degeneration. In aged people, is characterize by vertigo and positional nystagmus provoked by certain cephalic movements or body movements and, as sequelae, can take to falls and life quality restriction, physical and emotional. This study?s purpose was evaluate the Vestibular Rehabilitation in posterior canal?s BPPV?s treatment and its effect in the elderly life?s quality. Twenty three volunteers with BPPV ?s posterior canal?s canalith diagnoses pointed out by otorhinolaryngologist, aged between sixty to ninety one years old, average of 70,69 years and deviation of 9,24. Seventeen volunteers (73,9%) were female and six (26,1%) were male. In BPPV?s treatment by vestibular rehabilitation, thirteen (56,52%) were submitted to Epley maneuver, six (26,08%) used the Epley maneuver associated to Brandt- Daroff exercises and four patients (17,39%) were submitted only to the Brandt- Daroff exercises. The treatment?s time lasted from 2 to 6 weeks. A questionnaire (Dizziness Handicap Inventory Portuguese- DHI Portuguese) was used in order to dizziness quantity in the physical, emotional, functional and general aspects, which was observed a significant statistical difference (p<0,001) between the scores previous and after Vestibular Rehabilitation. Concluding that the aspects? scores evaluated improved after Vestibular Rehabilitation therapy in the posterior canal?s BPPV?s patients, occurring an improvement in volunteers? life quality.

CAPES
Esta dissertação de Mestrado busca ser uma contribuição filosófica para a Educação Contemporânea. A pesquisa foi fundamentada na filosofia prática aristotélica, mas não se constituiu um recorte da obra nem do pensamento de Aristóteles nem objetivou interpretar o vasto pensamento deste filósofo. Considerando que se trata de uma dissertação em filosofia da educação, o que se fez foi uma apropriação de uma ideia cara desde a educação grega, constituída como Paidéia e destacada marcantemente na Ética Nicomaquéia, que é a ideia de virtude (Areté) para a educação contemporânea. De inicio, era apenas isso que se pensava, mas essa dissertação foi muito mais uma navegação e Aristóteles, uma origem. Os ventos me levaram para lugares improváveis; durante a pesquisa houve tempestades e calmarias, nem sei dizer qual a pior. Perdida às vezes no mar de Poseidon, agarrei-me no mastro da filosofia e aportei na educação contemporânea para dissertar acerca de como essa inspiração de um modo de viver e pensar gregos ainda desabrocham na Educação. O afeto é efetivo tanto na vivência quanto na práxis pedagógica; ele é movente educativo e de autoconhecimento. Duas foram as teses de educação contemporânea as quais os ventos e correntes marinhas da pesquisa conduziram-me: as ideias de origem e autoformação extraídas da filosofia de Galeffi e a pedagogia da duração de Rita Célia, produções atuais da FACED-UFBA. A dissertação é um exemplo que confirma as teses acima partindo da origem para a autoformação, relevando-se como uma educação singular, da pessoa, e não de grupo, é o que defende a pedagogia da duração. Como acontece a todo navegante em terras novas, eu mudei nas ideias e nas vísceras. De advogada, tornei-me professora de filosofia, de uma atitude especulativa intelectualista, tornei-me efetivamente afeto.
This Master's thesis seeks to be a philosophical contribution to Contemporary Education. The research was based on Aristotelian practical philosophy, but did not constitute a snip of the work or the thought of Aristotle nor interpret the broad objective thinking of him. Whereas it is a dissertation in philosophy of education, which has done an appropriation of an important idea since the Greek education, Paideia and incorporated as a great markedly in Nicomachean Ethics, which is the idea of virtue (Areté) for contemporary education. Initially it was thought so, but the truth is that this dissertation has been a navigation, and Aristotle was an origin. The winds took me to unlikely places, during the search were lulls and storms, I can not tell what is the worst. Sometimes lost in the sea of Poseidon, I catched to the mast of philosophy and stopped in contemporary education to discussing about how this inspiration of a way of living and thinking Greeks still appears in education. The affection is effective both in experience and pedagogical praxis as it is moving educational and self-knowledge. There were two theses of contemporary education which the winds and ocean currents research has led me: the ideas of origin and self-training extracted from the Galeffi philosophy and the pedagogy of duration of Rita Celia, current productions of UFBA-FACED. The dissertation is an example that confirms the theses above from the origin to the self-training, showing itself as an singular education as advocates the pedagogy of duration. As it happen s to everyone that is in a new lands, I changed, on the ideas and on the visceras. From lawyer became professor of philosophy, from a speculative intellectualist attitude, I became effectively affection. Keywords:

Vertigem Posicional Paroxística Benigna (VPPB) é uma das mais freqüentes afecções do sistema vestibular. Caracteriza-se clinicamente pela presença de episódios recorrentes de tonturas rotatórias, tipicamente desencadeados por determinados movimentos cefálicos realizados pelo paciente. A confirmação diagnóstica é obtida através de testes como a manobra de Dix-Hallpike e de Brandt-Daroff, nos quais, observa-se sistematicamente o desencadeamento de nistagmo. O objetivo do presente trabalho foi avaliar a eficácia do tratamento com manobras de reposicionamento em pacientes com VPPB. Foi realizado em estudo prospectivo, longitudinal e experimental de Coorte envolvendo 36 pacientes acompanhados em ambulatório de otoneurologia. Foram considerados, para a análise dos dados, a evolução clínica dos pacientes, e os resultados obtidos na aplicação do questionário Dizziness Handicap Inventory (DHI) na primeira consulta do paciente e após o tratamento com as manobras de reposicionamento. Os escores dos aspectos físico, funcional, emocional foram comparados e, assim, analisado o efeito da reabilitação vestibular sobre a qualidade de vida dos pacientes submetidos a esse tratamento. Para a comparação dos escores antes e depois do tratamento foi utilizado o teste t de Student para amostras pareadas. A análise dos resultados mostrou diferença significativa dos valores do DHI. As manobras de reposicionamento demonstraram ser um método simples e eficaz de tratamento da VPPB nos pacientes aqui relatados.
Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo (BPPV) is among the most common vestibular disorders. It is characterized by recurrent episodes of vertigo induced by changes in head position. The condition is diagnosed by performing the tests like Dix-Hallpike and Brandt- Daroff maneuvers. Nystagmus is present by this way. The objective of this work was to evaluate the efficacy of the treatment with repositioning maneuvers in patients with BPPV. A prospective, longitudinal and experimental cohort study involving 36 patients followed up in outpatient neurotology. Were considered for data analysis, the clinical course of patients, and the results obtained in the Dizziness Handicap Inventory (DHI) in the first visit to the patient and after treatment with repositioning maneuvers. The scores of physical, functional, and emotional aspects were compared and thus the effect of vestibular rehabilitation on quality of life of the patients undergoing this treatment was analyzed. For comparison of the scores before and after treatment it was used the Student’s t-test for paired samples. Data analysis showed a significant difference to the values of DHI. The repositioning maneuvers are an excellent treatment for BPPV. The patients of our series were successfuly treated by this method.

Full textThe present work consists in formulating, developing and examining the hypothesis in which Machado de Assis’ tale produces a “vertigo effect”, disturbing destabilization during the process of reading, cut with an intended linearity, and that, we sustain, is connected to the narrative structure. The “vertigo effect” is present in tales that, we can say, represent the strength of Machado’s style, not for any reason – they work as “passage operators”: the vertigo plays with the continuity/discontinuity, fascination/perturbation, simultaneities, the enigma in dealing with the limits as the reality, in fiction and in life. We find in the tales, in the proximity and in relation to vertigo effect, the fictional trait that interrogates the fundamental discontinuities, questions of the human condition – sex and death; the same that configured the inquiries which came to Freud throughout his production, through the psychoanalytical clinic. The subjective truth has an intimate relation with fiction, so that we chose to keep on following the proximity of the Machado’s narrative form with its vertigo, of Freud’s work with the “passages” in relation tothe unconsciousness (point in which the relation among the joke, obliquity and irony is highlighted) and of the elaboration by Lacan on the structure of the subject, with the topology of the “Moebius band”. At this point, the assessment of Ricardo Piglia on the form of the tale integrates the exam about the structure as well as the consideration of the term “passages”, so much developed by Walter Benjamin. The conclusion takes into consideration the “vertigo effect” as a composition principle (not as reading key) of the tale, present in tales that we can situate as representative of Machado de Assis’ work. Paradoxal passages, transitory places of the enigmas that are transported from the social imaginary to the great fiction, cut of something unique, but that also brings a dimension of the collectivity of a context and of a time, through the “bolt” of the form tale, in Machado’s way.

Full textINTRODUCTION: There is no consensus in the literature with regard to the effects of cochlear implantation (CI) on vestibular function and balance in patients with deafness. Because of this fact we decided to assess vestibular function before and after unilateral cochlear implantation (CI) in patients with postlingual deafness. OBJECTIVE: To assess balance before and after cochlear implantation (CI) over the course of 1 year. PATIENTS AND METHODS: prospective, observational study sought to assess balance in 24 postlingually deaf adults undergoing vestibular evaluation before and after cochlear implantation (CI). Vestibular assessment consisting of a vertigo questionnaire, caloric tests (CT), rotary chair testing (RC), and computerized dynamic posturography (CDP) was performed preoperatively and at 60, 120, 180 days and 1 year after CI. RESULTS: Overall, 13 patients (54.2%) reported preoperative dizziness and 11 (45.8%) did not have the symptom pre-CI. At the end of the study dizziness ameliorated in 11 (84.6%), remained unchanged in 1 (7.7%) and worsened in 1 (7.7%). Only 5 of the 24 patients (20.8%) developed immediate postoperative dizziness, which resolved within a month. The caloric tests identified 7 (29.2%) patients with normal reflexes, 8 (33.3%) with unilateral areflexia or hyporeflexia, 3 (12.5%) with bilateral hyporeflexia, and 6 (25%) with bilateral vestibular loss (BVL). Electrical stimulation affected both ears and interfered with the progression of postural recovery after CI activation, which led to a significant improvement in CDP values over the course of 1 year of follow-up. At the end of the study, the mean values of the conditions assessed by CDP were higher in individuals who had responded to caloric tests than in individuals with BVL. The better postural performance of subjects with BVL may be due to better use of visual information. CONCLUSION: The presence or absence of CT response was a decisive determinant of balance outcomes over the year after surgery. The absence of post-caloric response in preoperative assessment resulted in a worse prognosis in the evolution of body balance. However, patients with BVL were able to use the visual information for postural stabilization with improvement in the Composite Score. It is essential that vestibular assessment findings be documented before CI surgery because a patient\'s prognosis in terms of learning skills and postural recovery over time depends on this information

Full textThe framework of the giddiness in its psychopathological and psychoanalytical aspect. The pleasure of the giddiness is to bathe in the feeling, in the sensuality of the events with the certainty that nothing disastrous will arrive. The pleasure is guaranteed by the continuity of the representations, by the thought which runs out in a time except time, in a space except space. Since the thought "camps", the plans in which space and time are tested can change. It is enough that a direction, that an awkward word, that one moment fantasmatic become too close to the subject so that plenitude transfers with the distress. The giddiness then comes to incarnate for the subject the Bad Meeting. The giddiness, it is the world of the feeling. The giddiness founds between him and the subject an unbearable circular phenomenon. Pleasure with the anguish, something of the racking settles, something of one work to back is created. The giddiness comes to create like a spine in ego, spine against which it will have to fight, which will come to make foreign body. The pleasure of the giddiness grows you, agreeably surprises you by the shock for a time, identity paradigm referred to temporality and with spatiality space but you remain in the pleasure. The anguish of the giddiness destroys you for a time, propels you in a time without time, a space without space, a discontinuity of oneself unbearable and especially in a relation which wants to be anobjectale. This anguish is registered and made traces in the ear of the subject, it is dense, opaque. The giddiness for that which suffers from it, it is the unstageable one, it is an abominable representation. Of this, it cannot make an experiment of it. The affect occupies space, to see it settles in the search of immutable points, guaranteeing of a balance which is sought. The glance of the subject which speaks to you about the giddiness clutches with the stable representation of the other in the evocation of a phenomenon which abolishes the representation and the other. One foresees already the duplicity of bodies which inform about the content of the world

Full textHow can we reengage books from the past in the world of the 21st century ? What do Miguel de Cervantes’s Don Quixote, Herman Melville’s Moby Dick or Fernando Pessoa’s Book of Disquiet have to teach us in our anthropic times as we take stock of the destruction of our basic terrestrial and atmospheric support ? What knowledge does literature possess about the essential vertigo of human life, which clings to its signs, its codes, its texts; a human life that is becoming progressively remote from the world as it withdraws into habitations made of signs ? What can these books inherited from tradition tell us about the support systems on which we depend ? What do we value, to what do we adhere ? And if our forms of life are the product of fictions that we spread across the world’s surface, what happens when they give way, and our supports crumble? These are the questions that run through the eight studies comprising this “history of vertigo”

Full textExercise leads to the acquisition and the integration of new motor skills specific for the type of practiced activity. Exercise is also a risk factor for injuries and seems to transiently alter the balance function. Nevertheless, physiological and pathophysiological mechanisms and their consequences on balance function still remain unclear. This work, which used cycling as a neurosensory model, aimed to evaluate the possible changes of physiological and compensatory balance-related sensory-motor strategies in function of the type of exercise and homeostatic perturbations. Road cyclists? (RCs) and mountain bikers? (MTBs) sensory-motor strategies were evaluated by posturography as well as the effects of exercise-related dehydration. Moreover, the prevalence of vertigo after competitions or training sessions was investigated by a questionnaire in RCs and downhill mountain bikers (MTBsDh).Balance-related visual information was better used by RCs and MTBs, who mainly practised road cycling. Somesthetic information was better used in MTB, who mainly practiced mountain biking. Exercise-related dehydration transiently altered postural control. The more severe the dehydration, the lower was the use of vestibular information. Vertigo commonly occurred after the practice of cycling, particularly in downhill mountain biking. Exhaustion was reported as a crucial factor for vertigo by RCs, whereas for MTBs it was sudden accelerations-decelerations and falls.The difference in sensory organisation between MTB and RC could be explained by adaptive processes elaborated from environmental stimulations and technical specificities of these disciplines. Even though muscular fatigue could explain the exercise-induced alterations of postural performances, vestibular fluid modifications may also be involved by their influence on intralabyrinthine homeostasis, lowering thus the contribution of vestibular information on balance control. The pathophysiological mechanisms generating vertigo might be an effort-related disturbance of homeostasis in RCs. In MTBsDh, the accelerations-decelerations (including falls), to which the head is subjected, might generate dysfunction of peripheral vestibular structures, particularly the otolith organs

A vertigem das antologias: Greg?rio de Matos constitui-se como enumera??o de seletas com listagem de capas, poemas, versos, notas, temas, datas, tomados como dados para sustentar a tese de que o poeta do barroco instaura-se como artista autor a partir do fazer antol?gico desde sempre. A simplicidade dessa assertiva mal esconde a complexidade de demonstrar, pois, que, do nascimento de seu discurso po?tico na col?nia portuguesa ? canoniza??o na literatura brasileira, h? um movimento hist?rico de leitura da obra de Greg?rio de Matos que se repete: a condu??o de um autor da imensid?o inapreens?vel ao unit?rio parcial em livros; do que surgem ciclos de antologias segundo os quais s?o organizados os cap?tulos integrantes deste estudo. A abordagem ? pr?tica antol?gica enfrenta a problem?tica de descrever a hist?ria da instaura??o de Greg?rio de Matos como autor via recep??o po?tica cristalizada por publica??es de antologias. A pesquisa possibilita alcance do objetivo geral de compreender a recep??o da obra do poeta baiano pela reflex?o sobre diferentes concretiza??es de leitura promovidas-propiciadas por antologias. A partir da leitura do conjunto de livros selecionados, depois de coleta em livrarias e bibliotecas, apresenta considera??es inferenciais sobre o fazer antol?gico da capa at? aos demais paratextos. Para tanto, parte da quest?o geral de como ? a recep??o da obra do escritor baiano seiscentista, documentada por antologistas, e da hip?tese geral de que a elabora??o de edi??es da obra gregoriana foi condicionada pelos determinantes hist?ricos de cada ?poca da recep??o. Para verifica??o dessa hip?tese, observa a atualidade das antologias frente ao horizonte de leitura do legado gregoriano, propiciado pelo fazer po?tico de ent?o quando do lan?amento da publica??o, assim como pelos atuais pressupostos te?ricos de estudos das artes do s?culo XVII. Esse procedimento surge por meio de di?logo com a fortuna cr?tica dedicada ao autor seiscentista, principalmente com a cr?tica de Haroldo de Campos e Augusto de Campos ao legado gregoriano, assim como com a ensa?stica de Francisco Ivan da Silva ? poesia barroca, al?m da pesquisa de Adolfo Hansen e Marcello Moreira ?s letras coloniais. A vertigem das antologias reafirma a import?ncia da hist?ria da literatura ao buscar fazer revis?o do julgamento do legado po?tico em diferentes ?pocas, conforme mudem as circunst?ncias sociais de cada tempo e a possibilidade de compreens?o da obra de Greg?rio de Matos do romantismo ao modernismo, at? a contemporaneidade. Francisco Adolfo de Varnhagen, Segismundo Spina, James Amado, H?lio P?lvora, Gilfrancisco, Andr? Seffrin, Iuri Pereira, Jo?o Adolfo Hansen e Marcello Moreira s?o nomes de editores da poesia de Greg?rio de Matos, respons?veis por fazer existir ciclos antol?gicos e por projetar continuidade de ocorr?ncia da pr?tica antologista da poesia seiscentista para leitores brasileiros.
The infinity of anthologies: Greg?rio de Matos thesis is a compilation with a list of covers, poems, verses, notes, themes and dates taken as data for supporting the thesis that the baroque poet constitutes himself as an artist author from the anthological practice since always. The simplicity of this assertion hardly hides the complexity of demonstrating, therefore, that, from his poetic discourse in the Portuguese colony to the canonization in Brazilian literature, there is a historical movement of reading the Greg?rio de Matos? works, which repeats itself: the leading of an author from the unapprehensible immensity to the partial unitary in books; whose cycles of anthologies emerge according to which the integrated chapters of this study are organized. An approach to the anthological practice faces the problematic of describing the story about Greg?rio de Matos? establishment as an author via crystalized poetic reception of anthological publications. The research enables the accomplishment of the general objective on understanding the reception of the poet?s work about the reflection on different reading embodiments promoted-propitiated by anthologies. From the selected books set reading, after collecting them in bookshops and libraries, we have come to the inferential considerations on the anthological practice from the cover to the paratexts. Therefore, we take off from the general question on the work?s reception of the sixteenth-century writer, documented by anthologists, as from the general hypothesis that the editions of the Gregorian work was conditioned by the historical determinants from each reception period. To verify this hypothesis, we observe the current anthologies in front of the reading horizon of Gregorian?s legacy, propitiated by the poetic making of when it was published and also by the current theoretical presuppositions of art studies in the seventeenth century. This procedure is operated through a dialogue with the critical fortune dedicated to the seventeenth-century author, mainly the Haroldo de Campos and Augusto de Campos? criticism to the Gregorian legacy, as well as the Francisco Ivan?s essay on baroque poetry, in addition to Adolfo Hansen and Marcello Moreira?s research on colonial letters. The infinity of anthologies reaffirms the literature history?s importance on aiming to review the poetic legacy?s judgment in different periods, according to the social circumstances from each time and Gregorio de Matos?s work understandment from romanticism to modernism, until contemporaneity. Francisco Adolfo de Varnhagen, Segismundo Spina, James Amado, H?lio P?lvora, Gilfrancisco, Andr? Seffrin, Iuri Pereira, Jo?o Adolfo Hansen and Marcello Moreira are editors? names of Greg?rio de Matos? poetry. They are responsible for bringing the anthological cycles to life and for carrying on the seventeenth-century poetries? anthological practice for brazilian readers.

Full textDissertation built modality scientific article. In the first article submitted to "Journal of Otolaryngology" with the title benign paroxysmal positional vertigo without nystagmus: diagnosis and treatment, there was a literature review, using the following keywords: "dizziness / vertigo, diagnosis / diagnosis, therapeutic / therapeutical approaches. " Scientific publications are included in the period 2001-2009 in Portuguese, English and German. We found nine papers dealt with BPPV without nystagmus, whose diagnosis was based exclusively on clinical history and physical examination. The treatment of BPPV without nystagmus was made by Epley maneuvers, Semont, discharge modified for posterior semicircular canal and Brandt-Daroff exercises. All show that 50% to 97.1% of patients with BPPV without nystagmus, had remission of symptoms, while patients with BPPV nystagmus with remission of symptoms ranged from 76% to 100%. Hence one can conclude that the differences may not be significant, which demonstrates the need for further studies on BPPV without nystagmus. In the second paper, Functional Capacity of Elderly with benign paroxysmal positional vertigo, compared the functional capacity among elderly patients with BPPV and elderly without clinical diagnosis of BPPV and that / or dizziness or vertigo, identifying the physical activities of daily living and instrumental activities of daily living in elderly people in both the Group of Elderly with BPPV (EBPPVG) and Control Group (CG). This is a cross-sectional study, case-control study in Hospital Geral de Goiânia (HGG), with the participation of 14 elderly patients with a diagnosis of BPPV and the Programa de Gerontologia Social / Universidade Aberta à Terceira Idade (UNATI) from the Pontificia Universidade Católica de Goiás (PUC-GO), with the participation of 13 subjects without dizziness or vertigo and / or clinical diagnosis was of BPPV. Functional capacity was assessed by the subscale of the Functional Assessment Questionnaire Brazilian Multidimensional Functional Capacity / Operating Older American Resources and Services Multidimensional Functional Assessment Questionnaire (BOMFAQ/OARS), verifying that the difficulty in performing 15 activities of daily living (ADL), eight physical activities of daily living (AFVD): throw / out of bed, eating, combing hair, walk on the plane, bathing, dressing, going to the bathroom in time and trimming toenails, and seven instrumental activities of living daily living (IADL): climbing stairs (one flight), doctor-on time, walk close to home, shopping, preparing meals, driving out and do house cleaning. Arrived at the following conclusions: a) elderly people with BPPV showed a statistically significant lower functional capacity than subjects without this diagnosis, b) in EBPPVG, the average number of daily activities (physical and instrumental), those with difficulty was 6.53 with a maximum of 11 activities committed while in the CG, the average impairment was 0.86 with a maximum of 4 activities referred with difficulty in performing c) EBPPVG affected performance in 13 activities of daily living, including physical seventh floor in the plan, bathing, dressing, combing hair, going to the bathroom in time, bedtime and getting up from bed or chair and cut nails feet, and 6 which are instrumental, climbing stairs, walking around the house, shopping, preparing meals, driving out and do house cleaning in the comparison between groups, d) Activities that were cited as the most difficult among the elderly were similar in both groups. However, the degree of impairment, characterized in: without commitment (when the elderly did not report any difficulty in any of the 15 evaluated ADL), mild (1 to 3 activities impaired), moderate (4-6 impaired activities) and severe (for seven or more impaired activities) was significantly higher in EBPPVG, where 7 (50%) showed severe impairment in ADL performance.
Dissertação construída na modalidade artigo científico. No primeiro artigo enviado para a Revista Brasileira de Otorrinolaringologia com o título Vertigem Posicional Paroxística Benigna sem nistagmo: diagnóstico e tratamento, realizou-se uma revisão da literatura, utilizando-se os seguintes descritores: vertigem/vertigo, diagnóstico/diagnosis, conduta terapêutica/ therapeutical approaches , palavras e assunto vertigem , nistagmo , VPPB , VPPB sem nitagmo , VPPB subjetiva . As publicações científicas incluídas são do período de 2001 a 2009 nos idiomas português, inglês, espanhol e alemão. Foram encontrados nove artigos que abordam a VPPB sem nistagmo, cujo diagnóstico foi baseado exclusivamente na história clínica e no exame físico. O tratamento da VPPB sem nistagmo foi realizado pelas manobras de Epley, Sémont, liberatória modificada para canal semicircular posterior e exercícios de Brandt-Daroff. Todos evidenciam que de 50% a 97.1% dos pacientes com VPPB sem nistagmo, tiveram remissão dos sintomas, enquanto nos pacientes com VPPB com nistagmo a remissão dos sintomas variou de 76% a 100%. Conclui-se que as diferenças podem não ser significativas, o que demonstra a necessidade de mais estudos sobre a VPPB sem nistagmo. No segundo artigo, com o título Capacidade Funcional de Idosos com Vertigem Posicional Paroxística Benigna, comparou-se a capacidade funcional entre idosos com VPPB e idosos sem diagnóstico clínico referido de VPPB e/ou queixa de tontura ou vertigem, identificando as atividades físicas de vida diária e as atividades instrumentais de vida diária comprometidas nos idosos tanto no Grupo de Idosos com VPPB (GIVPPB) quanto no Grupo Controle (GC). Trata-se de um estudo transversal, analítico, observacional e comparativo, realizado no Hospital Geral de Goiânia (HGG), com a participação de 12 idosos com diagnóstico de VPPB e no Programa de Gerontologia Social/ Universidade Aberta á Terceira Idade (UNATI) da Pontifícia Universidade Católica de Goiás (PUC-GO), com a participação de 13 idosos sem queixa de tontura ou vertigem e/ou diagnóstico clínico referido de VPPB. A capacidade funcional foi avaliada por meio da subescala funcional do Questionário Brasileiro da Avaliação Multidimensional de Capacidade Funcional/Brazilian Older American Resources and Services Multidimensional Functional Assessment Questionaire (BOMFAQ/OARS), verificando a dificuldade referida na realização de 15 atividades de vida diária (AVD), sendo oito atividades físicas de vida diária (AFVD): deitar/levantar da cama, comer, pentear cabelo, andar no plano, tomar banho, vestir-se, ir ao banheiro em tempo e cortar unhas dos pés, e sete atividades instrumentais de vida diária (AIVD): subir escada (um lance), medicar-se na hora, andar perto de casa, fazer compras, preparar refeições, sair de condução e fazer limpeza de casa. Chegou-se às seguintes conclusões: a) idosos com VPPB apresentam uma capacidade funcional estatisticamente significativa menor do que idosos sem este diagnóstico; b) no GIVPPB, o número médio de atividades de vida diária (físicas e instrumentais), referidas com dificuldade foi de 6,53 com o máximo de 11 atividades comprometidas, enquanto no GC, a média de comprometimento foi de 0,86 com o máximo de 4 atividades referidas com dificuldade no desempenho; c) A VPPB prejudicou o desempenho em 13 atividades de vida diária, 7 físicas incluindo andar no plano, tomar banho, vestir-se, pentear-se, ir ao banheiro em tempo, deitar e levantar-se da cama ou cadeira e cortar unhas dos pés; e 6 instrumentais quais sejam, subir escada, andar perto de casa, fazer compras, preparar refeições, sair de condução e fazer limpeza da casa na comparação entre os grupos; d) As atividades que foram referidas como mais difíceis entre os idosos, foram similares em ambos os grupos. Contudo, o grau de comprometimento, caracterizado em: sem comprometimento (quando o idoso não referia dificuldade em nenhuma das 15 AVD avaliadas), leve (de 1 a 3 atividades comprometidas), moderado (de 4 a 6 atividades comprometidas) e severo (de sete ou mais atividades comprometidas) foi significativamente maior no GIVPPB, onde 7(50%) evidenciaram severo comprometimento no desempenho das AVD.

Full textINTRODUCTION: The auditory evoked potentials assess the neuroelectrical activity of the auditory pathway from the auditory nerve to the cerebral cortex. The vectoelectronystagmography analyzes the semicircular canals and/or inferior vestibular nerve, checking peripheral or central vestibular involvement. The vestibular rehabilitation therapy consists in active exercises and repetitive eyes exercises, head and body and/or specific maneuvers to reduce the dizziness and body instability, increase gaze stability and postural control and also improve well-being in daily activities. Taking into account the scarcity of studies in the literature that investigate the central auditory pathways in subjects who underwent vestibular rehabilitation therapy, it becames important to know the central auditory system from the brainstem to the auditory cortex, in subjects with peripheral vestibular disorders. OBJECTIVE: To characterize the auditory evoked potentials of short, middle and long latencies in subjects with peripheral vestibular disorders, as well as to evaluate the development of these potentials and the results obtained in the Dizziness Handicap Inventory (DHI) after vestibular rehabilitation therapy (VRT). METHODS: brainstem auditory evoked potential (BAEP), Auditory Middle- Latency Response (AMLR), cognitive potential (P300) and DHI were carried out in 20 subjects with Peripheral Vestibular Hyperfunction Syndrome and 17 subjects with Peripheral Vestibular Hypofunction Syndrome, aged between 20 and 70, before and after vestibular rehabilitation therapy. RESULTS: The results showed that the Peripheral Vestibular Hypofunction Syndrome group, presented higher percentage of altered results on BAEP and AMLR. Comparing the normal and altered results (qualitative analysis) between the groups in the BAEP, lower brainstem was predominantly observed in the Peripheral Vestibular Hypofunction Syndrome group before and after VRT; increased latencies of Na and Pa waves in AMLR after VRT, incresead latency of Pa wave in AMLR before VRT and electrode effect to the Na-Pa amplitude after VRT. The alteration predominantly observed in the Peripheral Vestibular Hyperfunction Syndrome group, was the other type one before VRT; increased latency of Pa wave in AMLR before and after VRT and both changes to the Na-Pa amplitude after VRT. In the study of the evolution before and after VRT, it was observed a higher percentage of similar results for the three potentials in both groups. Comparing results before and after VRT, the DHI greatest improvement occurred for the physical, emotional and functional aspects in the Peripheral Vestibular Hyperfunction Syndrome group and for the physical and emotional aspects in the Peripheral Vestibular Hypofunction Syndrome group. Further studies that evaluate the central auditory pathway of individuals with peripheral vestibular syndrome are needed to better characterize the electrophysiological findings

Thesis held in the papers format. The first article is a systematic review that aimed to investigate the relationship between BPPV and falls (with and without fracture). The review was carried out independently by two researchers, using the combined descriptors in English, Portuguese and Spanish, "vertigo" and "elderly" and "accidental falls"; "benign paroxysmal positional vertigo" and "accidental falls"; in the Virtual Health Library and United States National Library of Medicine (PubMED) databases, being the last search in August 2016. Six scientific papers were selected. The results showed that there were double falls in the elderly with the diagnosis of BPPV and this the relationship increased with advancing age. There was evidence of a decrease in episodes of falls above 60% of the elderly who were treated for BPPV. In elderly people with more than one cause for dizziness, BPPV can not be considered as an independent risk factor for falls. However, in the hospital environment, the relationship between BPPV and falls was not observed when the investigation was performed from the hip fracture. However, when the study included elderly patients hospitalized for various consequences of falls, BPPV could be identified in more than 50% of the patients. It can be concluded that BPPV is associated with falls. The second article, whose primary objective was to evaluate dizziness in the elderly in the primary care for the recognition of BPPV and the secondary one, to analyze the association between dizziness and BPPV with falls. It was a cross-sectional study of 298 diabetic and / or hypertensive elderly individuals enrolled in the Hypertensive and Diabetic Monitoring System of the Basic Family Health Unit of the Madre Germana II neighborhood of Goiânia, Goiás. The evaluation was carried out at the residence of the elderly, including the Mini Mental State Examination, sociodemographic profile, record of self-reported health conditions with emphasis on reporting dizziness and / or vertigo and record of falls in the last 12 months. The elderly who reported dizziness and/or vertigo were revisited for functional otoneurological evaluation for BPPV, using the Dix Hallpike test for the posterior and anterior semicircular canals and the Supine Roll test for the horizontal semicircular canal. The study included 150 elderly individuals with a mean age of 69.7 (+/- 7.36), the majority of them were female. Dizziness was reported by 50 elderly (33.3%). Among the 50 patients who reported dizziness, 19 had objective and subjective BPPV (38.8%). There was association between the complaint of dizziness and falls (p = 0.05), which did not occur with BPPV. The assessment of dizziness and BPPV can be performed in the home of the elderly in primary care. This proactive approach can help prevent falls because dizziness has increased the chances of the elderly falling. Although elderly people who presented objective or subjective BPPV did not increase their chances of falls, the identification of this disease, which has a known, effective and financially inexpensive treatment, may lead to the resolution of this clinical condition.
Tese construída na forma de artigos científicos. O primeiro artigo é uma revisão sistemática que objetivou investigar a relação entre VPPB e quedas (com e sem fratura). A revisão foi realizada de forma independente por duas pesquisadoras, utilizando os descritores combinados em inglês, português e espanhol, “vertigem” and “idoso” and “acidentes por quedas"; “vertigem posicional paroxística benigna” and idoso and acidentes por quedas”; vertigem posicional paroxística benigna” and “acidentes por quedas”, nas bases de dados Biblioteca Virtual em Saúde (BVS), United States National Library of Medicine (PubMED), sendo a última busca em agosto de 2016. Foram selecionados seis artigos. Observou-se diversidade metodológica entre os estudos. Quedas ocorreram o dobro de vezes em idosos com o diagnóstico de VPPB e esta relação aumentou com o avanço da idade. Houve evidência de diminuição de episódios de quedas acima de 60% dos idosos que foram tratados da VPPB. Em idosos com mais de uma causa para a tontura, a VPPB não pode ser considerada como fator de risco independente para quedas. Contudo, no ambiente hospitalar, a relação entre VPPB e quedas não foi observada quando a investigação foi realizada a partir da fratura de quadril. No entanto, quando o estudo incluiu idosos internados por consequências diversas de quedas, a VPPB pôde ser identificada em mais de 50% dos pacientes. Pode-se concluir que a VPPB está associada a quedas. O segundo artigo, teve como objetivos, avaliar a tontura em idosos na atenção primária para o reconhecimento da VPPB e analisar a associação entre tontura e VPPB com quedas. Foi um estudo do tipo transversal sendo estudados 298 idosos diabéticos e/ou hipertensos, cadastrados no Sistema de Acompanhamento de Hipertensos e Diabéticos da Unidade Básica de Saúde da Família do bairro Madre Germana II de Goiânia, Goiás. A avaliação foi realizada na residência dos idosos incluindo o Mini Exame do Estado Mental, perfil sociodemográfico, registro das condições de saúde auto referidas com ênfase no relato de tontura e/ou vertigem e registro de quedas nos últimos 12 meses. Os idosos que referiram tontura e/ou vertigem foram revisitados para avaliação funcional Abstract xvi otoneurológica para VPPB, utilizando o teste de Dix Hallpike para os canais semicirculares posterior e anterior e Supine Roll test para o canal semicircular horizontal. Foram incluídos no estudo 150 idosos com média de idade de 69,7(+/-7,36), a maioria do sexo feminino e 26% referiam queda. Tontura foi referida por 33% dos idosos, dentre os quais, 38,8% apresentaram VPPB. Houve associação entre a queixa de tontura e quedas (p=0,05), o que não ocorreu com a VPPB objetiva ou subjetiva. A avaliação da tontura e VPPB pode ser realizada no domicílio de idosos na atenção primária.

The present dissertation aims to analyze the narrator/character disembodiment and the body presence in the narrative construction in José Agrippino de Paula s PanAmérica. The body into which the subject inserts himself acquires an enormous proportion throughout the work: the body of anonymous heroes, hundreds of them fragmented, creased and dulled in the asphyxiating tubes of the cultural machine; the individualized body, the source of pleasure, beauty, warmth and proximity; the narrative body converted into happening by the operative movement of the chaotic writing strengths. It is in this vertiginous and raving context that the narrator tries to restate his own existence towards the illogicalness of a world and also of a narrative laid in ruins. In our walk through the work, whose explosives are switched on at each scenic unity, we have attempted to ascertain how the narrator and the characters disembodiment along the work and the construction of a strongly erotic narrative were used to build a sensory happening, determined to constitute a possible anthropophagic answer to the ideological dichotomies which marked the 1960s in Brazil
Este trabalho tem por objetivo analisar a despersonificação do narrador personagem e a presença do corpo na construção da narrativa em PanAmérica, de José Agrippino de Paula. O corpo em que se insere o sujeito adquire grande proporção no espaço da obra: seja o corpo dos heróis anônimos, centenas deles estilhaçados, amassados e embotados nos tubos asfixiantes da máquina cultural; seja o corpo individualizado, fonte de prazer, de beleza, de calor e proximidade; seja o corpo da narrativa convertida em happening pelo movimento operativo das forças de uma escrita caótica. É nesse contexto vertiginoso e delirante, que o narrador tenta reafirmar sua própria existência ante a ilogicidade de um mundo - e de uma narrativa - em franco desfacelamento. Em nosso caminhar pela obra, cujos explosivos são acionados a cada unidade cênica, procuramos verificar como a despersonificação do narrador e dos personagens ao longo da obra, e a construção de uma narrativa fortemente erótica, foram utilizados para a edificação de um happening sensorial, destinado a se constituir em possível resposta antropofágica às dicotomias ideológicas que marcaram o Brasil dos anos 60

Full textA pesquisa tem por objetivo pensar uma possível oscilação que caracterizaria a obra poética de Ferreira Gullar, no que se refere à aproximação e ao distanciamento das categorias da poesia moderna. O estudo dos diálogos com a vanguarda artística, enquanto exploração dos poderes da linguagem desviada de seu uso trivial, constitui o caminho para pensarmos a seguinte questão: ainda que o perfil multifacetado de Gullar o insira na categoria dos artistas modernos, acostumados ao trânsito entre os diversos tipos de arte, que ele tenha participado de um dos principais movimentos da vanguarda brasileira, o Concretismo, e tenha criado o Neoconcretismo, ao optar pela comunicação, estaria ele se afastando da tradição da poesia moderna?
The researchers purpose is to think a possible oscillation that characterizes Ferreira Gullars poetic work regarding the approximation and the distance of the modern poetry categories. The study of Gullars dialogues with the artistic vanguard assumed as the exploration of the powers of the language diverted from its own ordinary use, leads to the following question: even so Gullars multifaceted profile places him in the category of modern artists, used to move through several kinds of art, that he took part in one of the most important movements of the Brazilian vanguard, the Concrete poetry, and created Neoconcrete poetry, when choosing for the communication, would he be going away from the tradition of modern poetry?
