1. Is There a Difference between the Preoperative and Postoperative Serum Levels of Interleukin-6 and Tumor Necrosis Factor-α in Children Submitted to Adenotonsillectomy?
Abstract Introduction Palatine and pharyngeal tonsils are the first line of defense against pathogens. Clinically, two alterations may require surgical removal of the tonsils: hypertrophy and recurrent tonsillitis. The two conditions probably result from a dysfunction of the immune system. Objective To evaluate possible differences in the plasma levels of

2. Is there a relationship between tonsil volume and the success of pharyngeal surgery among adult patients with obstructive sleep apnea?
Abstract Objectives: Hypertrophic palatine tonsils play a role in the blockage of the upper airway, one of the known causes of Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA). Therefore, it is possible that there is an association between tonsil size and the success of pharyngeal surgery during OSA treatment. The main objective of this study was to evaluate the relationship

4. Aspectos do sistema estomatognático pré e pós adenotonsilectomia / Aspects of stomatognathic system before and after adenotonsillectomy
Objetivo: verificar os aspectos das estruturas fonoarticulatórias do sistema estomatognático e das funções de respiração, deglutição, fala e fonação, que engloba qualidade vocal e ressonância após realização de cirurgia de tonsilas palatinas e faríngeas. Método: participaram deste estudo 22 crianças, 17 do sexo masculino e 05 do sexo feminin

5. Correlation between oral nasal breathing and anatomic and functional alterations of the craniofacial complex / Correlação entre respiração buconasal e alterações anatômicas e funcionais do complexo craniofacial
This research aimed to correlate the oral nasal breathing with the anatomic and functional alterations of the craniofacial complex by means of questionnaires, x-rays and fast clinical tests. It was an analytical study of the observational case control type in quantitative research, carried out in the town of Sousa-PB. In the research, one hundred and forty-t

6. Uso da telerradiografia em norma lateral como auxiliar no diagnostico dos disturbios obstrutivos respiratorios do sono em crianças com TDA/H / Diagnosis of obstrutive respiratory sleep disorders by standard lateral teleradiography in children with ADHD
: Diagnosis of Obstructive Respiratory Sleep Disorders by Standard Lateral Teleradiography in Children with ADHD. Obstructive Respiratory Sleep Disorders (ORSD) have been associated with attention deficit and hyperactivity in children with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). This purpose of this work is to use standard lateral teleradiography as

7. Estudo da deglutição adaptada e sua associação com variaveis de interesse epidemiologico, em crianças na fase inicial de dentição mista
A deglutição adaptada é freqüente na dentição mista. Na avaliação de 73 crianças com deglutição adaptada, faixa etária de sete a nove anos de idade, estudamos os aspectos miofuncional orofacial, dentário, cefalométrico, otorrinolaringológico e hábitos orais deletérios, e suas inter-relações. Observamos que a deglutição adaptada não ocor

8. Carrier rate of Streptococcus suis capsular type 2 in palatine tonsils of slaughtered pigs.
Palatine tonsils of 143 slaughtered pigs aged 4 to 6 months were investigated for the presence of Streptococcus suis type 2. Slices (50 micron) of frozen tonsils were cultured on a selective agar medium containing antibodies against S. suis type 2 in which colonies of this bacterium showed a halo of immunoprecipitation. When tonsils were sectioned in one pla

9. Human tonsil intraepithelial B cells: a marginal zone-related subpopulation.
AIMS: To determine if intraepithelial B cells in reactive human palatine tonsils were similar to the marginal zone cells of the spleen and Peyer's patches. METHODS: Reactive human palatine tonsils were studied using conventional methods of light microscopy, electron microscopy, and a panel of monoclonal antibodies for leucocyte common antigens. RESULTS: Clin

10. Intercellular and lymphatic pathways of the canine palatine tonsils.
The palatine tonsils play a key role in initiating immune responses against antigenic material entering the mouth and their lymphatic pathways are important in disseminating immunological information to the lymph nodes and other mucosal surfaces. Scanning and transmission electron microscopy and Mercox casts were used to examine the intercellular and lymphat

11. Immunohistochemical detection of prion protein in lymphoid tissues of sheep with natural scrapie.
The scrapie-associated form of the prion protein (PrPSc) accumulates in the brain and lymphoid tissues of sheep with scrapie. In order to assess whether detecting PrPSc in lymphoid tissue could be used as a diagnostic test for scrapie, we studied the localization and distribution of PrPSc in various lymphoid tissues collected at necropsy from 55 sheep with c

12. Induction of compartmentalized B-cell responses in human tonsils.
The capacity of tonsillar and nasal mucosal lymphoid tissues to serve as induction sites of local and/or distant B-cell responses in humans has been examined. The frequencies of vaccine-specific antibody-secreting cells (ASC) in cell suspensions from palatine tonsils (PT) and adenoids were determined after local (intra-tonsillar [i.t.]) and regional (intrana
