Quality of life in adults with orofacial pain: a longitudinal approach

Aim: was to relate orofacial pain and TMD with a high negative impact on quality of life indices, to observe and report the possible reduction of the impact in these same indexes with the initial treatment. A longitudinal and quantitative study was developed in a sample of 48 patients previously screened for Orofacial Pain and/or TMD who were starting treatment at the Center for Diagnosis and Treatment of TMJ (CDATM) at Tuiuti University of Paraná.

Hemolysis influence on the analytical performances of the automatonbs 300 in the dosage of 5 parameters

The aim of this study was to determinehemolysis influence on the analytical performances of the automaton BS300 (Mindray®) on the dosage of biochemical parameters. The hemolysis additions methodwas run to create an increasing hemoglobin range of concentration varying from 0 to 12g/dl. To determine an influence of the hemolysis on the measure, the variation limit of 10 % waschosen. The studied parameters were creatinine, albumin, total protein, calcium and total cholesterol. Total cholesterol and total proteinwere the positively impacted parameters leading to an overestimate of the result.
