Trichotillomania is a psychodermatologic disorder characterized by uncontrollable urge to pull one's own hair. Differential diagnoses include the most common forms of alopecia such as alopecia areata. It is usually associated with depression and obsessive-compulsive disorder. Trichotillomania treatment standardization is a gap in the medical literature. Recent studies demonstrated the efficacy of N-acetylcysteine (a glutamate modulator) for the treatment of the disease. We report the clinical case ...

Abstract BACKGROUND The remediation of a soil spiked with diesel using Unitol L90 and sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) in a soil washing process was evaluated. The washing process was followed by an anodic oxidation based on boron doped‐diamond electrolysis (BDD‐electrolysis) to treat the washing liquid, using a solar photovoltaic (PV)‐battery system as a direct electrical power source. RESULTS The results demonstrate that high concentrations of Unitol L 90 and SDS are required for the surfactant‐aided ...

This work proposes an eco-efficient treatment technology for the remediation of a kaolinite-based clay soil artificially contaminated with hexavalent chromium (50 mg Cr(VI) kg–1 soil), combining electrokinetics (EK) with permeable reactive barriers (PRB) composed of cork granules, the major by-product of cork stoppers production. This 100% natural and sustainable material can act as (i) an electron donor in the Cr(VI) reduction into trivalent chromium [Cr(III)], the less toxic state, and as (ii) a binder ...

A 54 year-old woman with a 3-year history of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) consulted us because of weight loss, fever and skin eruption. On physical examination, erythematous plaques with a pseudo-vesicular appearance were seen on the back of both shoulders. Histological examination was consistent with rheumatoid neutrophilic dermatosis (RND). After three days of prednisone treatment, the skin eruption resolved. RND is a rare cutaneous manifestation of seropositive RA, characterized by asymptomatic, symmetrical ...

As a consequence of accelerated and excessive use of pesticides in tropical regions, wilderness areas are under threat; this includes the Pantanal wetlands in the Upper Paraguay River Basin (UPRB). Using a Land Cover Land Use Change (LCLUC) modelling approach, we estimated the expected pesticide load in the Pantanal and the surrounding highlands region for 2050 under three potential scenarios: i) business as usual (BAU), ii) acceleration of anthropogenic changes (ACC), and iii) use of buffer zones around ...

The great and rapid process of chromosomal diversification of the genus Ctenomys has highlighted these rodents as an excellent model for studying evolution. Despite their karyotypic diversity, tuco-tucos have a conservative skull form related to their subterranean habit. In this study, 221 karyotyped specimens were analyzed with geometric morphometric methods for dorsal, ventral, and lateral views of the skull in two sister species occurring in southern Brazil and Uruguay: Ctenomys torquatus (2n = ...

Since it was trapped in the XIX th century, Rhagomys rufescens has been considered a rare endangered sigmodontine rodent and an endemic species of the Atlantic forest. Only a handful of vouchers of this taxon were known by Thomas, 1886. Recently, eight new individuals were collected, providing new geographical, morphological and phylogenetic (based on molecular evidence) information on this species. In the present work we report the southernmost occurrence record for R. rufescens at Indaial, Santa ...

Sympatric species of vesper mice Calomys laucha and Calomys musculinus are difficult to discriminate, especially in natural history collections where they are identified by external body measurements and cranial characteristics. Accurate identification of these two species can be important because only one of them, C. musculinus, is a Junin virus reservoir, the aetiological agent of the Argentine Hemorragic Fever. Research has focused into the development of molecular techniques to unambiguously ...

In subterranean rodents of the genus Ctenomys, excavation activity can be carried out with the claws and forelimbs (scratch-digging) as well as with the skull and incisor teeth (skull-tooth digging). Within the forelimb myoskeletal system, the humerus is a main bone concentrating a large number of muscles and bearing tensions during excavation. The genus Ctenomys is considered primarily a scratch-digger and secondarily a skull-tooth digger. We analysed the humerus (N = 165) of four species of Ctenomys ...

Most phytophagous insects feed on a single plant during development, and this may influence not only performance-linked traits, but also more subtle morphological differences. Insect–plant interactions are thus valuable for studying environmental influences on phenotypes. By using geometric morphometrics, we investigated the variation in forewing size and shape in the butterfly Heliconius erato phyllis reared on six species of passion vines (Passiflora spp.). We detected wing shape sexual dimorphism, ...

Sympatric species of vesper mice (Calomys expulsus and C. tener) from the Cerrado biome are often distinguished by their respective sizes. Using geometric morphometrics, we tested if interspecific differences were mainly due to isometric or allometric size variations or allometry-free shape differences. To delimit species groups, we used and compared linear discriminant analysis, calculated on subsets of individuals of known identity, and pattern recognition techniques, needing no prior information ...
