O Hospital Universitário Bettina Ferro de Souza (HUBFS) oferece ensino, pesquisa e atendimento especializado gratuito em Oftalmologia, Otorrinolaringologia e Pediatria na Região Norte.
O Atlas Brasileiro Online de Doenças Raras é um serviço da Rede Nacional de Doenças Raras. Ele foi criado para disseminar informações sobre epidemiologia, quadro clínico, recursos diagnósticos e terapêuticos usados, e custos relacionados a doenças raras de origem genética e não genética no Brasil.
As doenças raras podem ser definidas como aquelas que afetam até 65 pessoas em cada 100 mil, ou seja, 1,3 pessoas para cada 2.000 indivíduos. No Brasil, estima-se que cerca de treze milhões de pessoas possuem alguma doença rara.
Após coletar, armazenar, processar e analisar os dados provenientes do projeto Rede Nacional de Doenças Raras, produzimos e publicamos estudos científicos para revistas e conferências científicas nacionais e internacionais.
Portanto, bem-vindo(a) a nossa lista de publicações. Essas publicações científicas representam um esforço contínuo para o entendimento e a explicação de fenômenos na área das doenças raras.
Esses esforços visam fornecer subsídios úteis e relevantes para a tomada de decisão baseadas em evidências no campo das doenças raras. Corroborando assim para o cumprimento dos objetivos gerais e específicos deste projeto.

INTRODUCTION: Phenylketonuria (PKU) is an inborn error of amino acid metabolism, with autosomal recessive inheritance. In non-treated patients, clinical signs may appear in the first months of life as hypotonia and neuropsychomotor development delay, in addition to seizures, irritability and a characteristic odor. In Brazil, PKU was one of the first genetic disorders to be included in neonatal screening, with the aim of starting early dietary treatment. OBJECTIVES: To present an overview of PKU in Brazil, using data from the Brazilian Rare Diseases Network (RARAS). MATERIALS AND METHODS: Data from individuals with a confirmed diagnosis of PKU assisted at the centers were included in this study. Cases were collected in the retrospective (2018-2019) and prospective (2022 to May 2024) survey. Data was collected and extracted from the REDCap. RESULTS: 717 individuals were included, 68.9% were female, with a mean age of 16.0 (±11.8) years at the time of data collection. Neonatal screening was responsible for 74.9% of diagnoses, while symptomatic diagnosis represented 22.5%. The largest paying source for diagnoses was the Unified Health System (SUS, 95.6%). The Southeast region had the highest number of diagnoses, with 65.2%, followed by the Northeast region, with 16.3%. CONCLUSION: Although included in neonatal screening since 2000, our data show that almost 1/4 of patients (22.5%) were diagnosed after presenting symptoms. Although the largest source of payment for diagnoses is the SUS, there is great regional inequality. Furthermore, this study corroborates the importance of diagnosis in the neonatal period to begin treatment in the first days of life. The majority of diagnoses in this registry were made through the Brazilian Unified Health System (SUS), highlighting the crucial role of the public healthcare system in neonatal screening and the diagnosis of rare diseases.

Introduction: Although it has been said that 'health is priceless', it certainly has its costs. In the last decades, the growing expenditure on health has raised concerns about better management of resources destined for this purpose. Among the factors related to the increase in health costs, changes in morbidity and mortality patterns in contemporary societies are evident, which can be explained by the reduction in infectious and contagious diseases and the increase in chronic degenerative ones. Hereditary Angioedema is a chronic disease that requires regular medical follow-up and treatment. The aim of this study was to evaluate the direct and indirect costs of Hereditary Angioedema with C1 inhibitor deficiency (C1-INH-HAE) treatment in specialized centers in Brazil. Methods: The present study is part of the National Network for Rare Diseases. It has a prospective and retrospective design that aims to understand and measure the Care Value Journey (CVJ) of patients with C1-INH-HAE in Brazil. It was carried out in 116 patients of 7 reference centers. Questionnaires were applied to patients/caregivers, one retrospective and one prospective (v1), containing general data about the patient; diagnosis, treatment, productivity, costs and evolution of the disease. In addition, interviews were conducted with nurses, doctors and administrators allocated in the centers to understand the reality of the resources used within the protocols used for management of C1-INH-HAE in each institution. Results: The most frequently used drug for long-term prophylaxis was oxandrolone [25/116; 21,5%], followed by danazol [14/116; 12.6%] and tranexamic acid [14/116; 12.06%]. The average monthly cost of oxandrolone was US$ 19.94; danazol, US$ 24.05 and tranexamic acid, US$ 8.61. Icatibant Acetate was the most commonly used medication for on demand treatment [14/116; 12.06%], with a mean use of 3 shots every 4 months for each patient. This drug was obtained through lawsuit and the cost per application was US$ 1,416.26. The total cost of this patient's care journey, including medical appointments, exams and medications was US$ 23,391.31 per year. Loss of productivity at work, which is an indirect cost, must also be taken into account in a pharmacoeconomic study. The time spent in a 1-year follow-up of a patient with C1-INH-HAE, taking into account medical appointments and exams, was 372.5 minutes. This time can reflect on absenteeism at work and school. The assessment of productivity loss, assessed using the Work Productivity and Activity Impairment - General Health (WPAI-GH) questionnaire, was answered by 7 caregivers and 87 patients. Of these, 46 patients and 4 caregivers answered that they were employed. The percentage of commitment during work (presenteeism) was 32.4% and the absenteeism (time lost from work) was 17.2%. Conclusion: The direct and indirect costs that patients with C1-INH-HAE have with the treatment of the disease are excessively high considering the socioeconomic level of Brazilian population. More investments in pharmacoeconomic studies are needed to think of strategies that minimize these costs
