1. Rheumatic Fever: A Disease without Color
Resumo Fundamento: O Brasil tem aproximadamente 30.000 casos de febre reumática aguda (FRA) por ano. Um terço das cirurgias cardiovasculares realizadas no país se deve às sequelas da doença reumática cardíaca (DRC), a qual é um importante problema de saúde pública. Objetivos: Analisar as séries históricas de taxas de mortalidade e custos das do

4. Avaliação da microbiota bucal em pacientes sob uso crônico de penicilina G benzatina / Evaluation of oral microbiota in patients on chronic use of benzathine penicillin
A Febre Reumática, complicação tardia de uma infecção de orofaringe causada pelo Streptococcus pyogenes (estreptococo -hemolítico do grupo A de Lancefield), tem como conseqüência a Cardiopatia Reumática, explicada pelo mimetismo molecular entre proteínas cardíacas humanas e a associação de proteínas e carboidratos da membrana do S. pyogenes.

5. "Determinação de alvos antigênicos na doença reumática cardíaca utilizando phage display" / Identification of molecular markers involved in the pathogenesis of rheumatic heart disease by phage display
Rheumatic heart disease (RHD) patients develop valvar lesions with CD4+ T lymphocytes infiltrating the heart. Molecular mimicry between streptococcal and cardiac proteins recognized by these T cells may explain these auto-aggressive lesions. In the present work we used a Phage Display peptide library to identify cardiac antigens which could be recognized by

9. Human heart sarcolemmal sheath antibodies in children with non-suppurative sequelae of group A streptococcal infections: a follow up study.
The kinetics of the human heart sarcolemmal sheath antibody were studied in children with acute rheumatic fever who had no carditis, children with acute rheumatic fever who had carditis and developed rheumatic heart disease, and in children with acute poststreptococcal glomerulonephritis. The children with rheumatic fever and those who developed valvular hea

10. Ethnic differences in mortality from acute rheumatic fever and chronic rheumatic heart disease in New Mexico, 1958-1982.
To examine time trends and differences in mortality rates from acute rheumatic fever and chronic rheumatic heart disease in New Mexico's Hispanic, American Indian, and non-Hispanic white populations, we analyzed vital records data for 1958 through 1982. Age-adjusted mortality rates for acute rheumatic fever were low and showed no consistent temporal trends a

11. Epidemiology and prevention of valvular heart diseases and infective endocarditis in Africa
Valvular heart diseases in Africa affect mainly children and young adults and are a result of rheumatic fever. Rheumatic fever is a preventable disease, but in Africa the combination of a lack of resources, lack of infrastructure, political, social and economic instability, poverty, overcrowding, malnutrition and lack of political will contributes to the per

12. An epidemiological study of rheumatic fever and rheumatic heart disease in Lagos.
In Lagos 12 755 schoolchildren aged between six and 12 years were screened for evidence of rheumatic heart disease and showed a prevalence rate of 0.03%. Group C (27.7%) and group G (47.3%) predominated in the throat and in cases of pharyngitis, while group A predominated on the skin. Two hundred and sixty-six cases of pharyngitis were recorded, 70 (26.4%) w
