Breast cancer screening is not recommended for young women (< 40 years old); therefore, those diagnosed are more likely to have advanced and metastatic disease, reducing treatment outcomes. This study aimed to investigate breast cancer epidemiology among young women in Brazil.Data from three publicly available databases and a cohort from a university hospital in Brazil were analyzed in a retrospective study. Descriptive statistics was performed on disease prevalence and stage distribution across age ...

The Ediacaran–Cambrian plutonic activity is one of the most important geological features of the Rio Grande do Norte Domain (Borborema Province, NE Brazil). It is represented by several batholiths, stocks and dykes. Based on the petrographic, geochemical and geochronological characteristic of different rocks, this plutonic activity can be grouped in six separate suites: shoshonitic (Shos), porphyritic high-K calc-alkaline (PHKCalcAlk), equigranular high K calc-alkaline (EHKCalcAlk), calc-alkaline (CalcAlk), ...

The frequency of resistance alleles is a major factor influencing the rate of resistance evolution. Here, we adapted the F2 screen procedure for Spodoptera frugiperda (J. E. Smith) with a discriminating concentration assay, and extended associated statistical methods to estimate the frequency of resistance to Cry1F protein in S. frugiperda in Brazil when resistance was not rare.We show that F2 screen is efficient even when the resistance frequency is 0.250. It was possible to screen 517 isoparental ...

Chiral cyclopalladated complexes derived from N,N-dimethyl-1-phenethylamine and the coordinating ligand 1,1′-bis(diphenylphosphine)ferrocene were synthesized and studied as Cathepsin B inhibitors and antitumoral agents against solid tumors. Our results revealed that the palladium compound [Pd2(C2,N-S(−)dmpa)2(μ-dppf)Cl2] (2) was able to inhibit Cathepsin B activity in a reversible fashion. This palladacycle compound binds to free cathepsin B (E) as well as to the enzyme–substrate complex (ES) with dissociation ...

Little information is available concerning infection by Leishmania infantum in cats. Therefore, the aim of this study was to perform a serological study in domestic cats.Serum samples (n=153) obtained from animals living in the Cities of Recife and Petrolina, State of Pernambuco, Brazil, were tested by ELISA/S7® (Biogene).Anti-L. infantum antibodies were detected in 3.9% (6/153) of the cats. All seroreagent animals were from Petrolina.These results serve as an important alert, and future studies are ...

Lectins are a class of carbohydrate-binding proteins or glycoproteins with diverse specificities and functions. The determination and characterization of the three-dimensional structures of these proteins are keys to understanding their biological effects. Recent studies have explored the anticancer potential of Diocleinae lectins (from Leguminoseae family), evaluating their antiproliferative effect and their ability to induce glioma cell death via apoptosis and autophagy. In this work, the three- ...

Successful image-based object recognition techniques have been constructed founded on powerful techniques such as sparse representation, in lieu of the popular vector quantization approach. However, one serious drawback of sparse space-based methods is that local features that are quite similar can be quantized into quite distinct visual words. We address this problem with a novel approach for object recognition, called sparse spatial coding, which efficiently combines a sparse coding dictionary ...

PURPOSE: To investigate diclofenac topical gel as an alternative to reduce phlogistic signals and maintain quality of wound repair. METHODS: Fifteen Wistar rats were used in this study; four excisional wounds were performed on the dorsum of each animal. Once in a day, cranial wounds received topical diclofenac gel administration and caudal wounds were washed with isotonic saline. After seven, 14 and 21 postoperative days, five animals were randomly chosen for macroscopic and microscopic wound analysis. ...

Autochthonous hepatitis E virus (HEV) infection has been increasingly reported in Europe and the United States, mostly arising from genotype 3 and less frequently genotype 4. We report here on a patient with HEV genotype 3a infection complicated by Guillain-Barré syndrome in Portugal in December 2012. We draw attention to the diagnosis of autochthonous HEV infection and to its rare, but important, neurological complications.

This paper describes a novel approach in formation control for mobile robots in the active target tracking problem. A nonlinear model predictive formation controller (NMPFC) for target perception was implemented to converge a group of mobile robots toward a desired target. The team must also maintain a desired formation following a target while it is moving, or follow a leader in the case of target's absence. The structure details of the controller, as well as a mathematical analysis of the formation ...
