Postoperative pain is frequent despite of the therapeutic armamentarium available. Its development is related with factors inherent to the surgery and patient. The objective of this study was to evaluate the prevalence of postoperative pain in hospitalized patients and its association with gender and type of surgery.This is a transversal study in which interviews were done with 187 patients undergoing surgeries. The incidence of pain in the first 24 hours and its severity according to a numeric ...

Breast cancer is the most frequent neoplastic tumor in women, and surgical treatment is indicated in most patients. Complications related to this treatment, such as post-mastectomy pain syndrome (PMPS), a persistent pain that develops after surgery, have been reported. Although the genesis of the pain is multifactorial, sectioning of the intercostobrachial nerve is the nerve lesion diagnosed more often. The objective of this study was to review the etiopathogeny, diagnosis, presentation, aggravating ...

Genital mycoplasmas (GM), such as Mycoplasma hominis, Mycoplasma genitalium, Ureaplasma parvum, and Ureaplasma urealyticum are commonly associated with spontaneous preterm labor (SPTL), spontaneous preterm birth (PTB), and preterm prelabor rupture of membranes (PPROM). This study determined the association between GM and such adverse pregnancy outcomes. We searched for studies published 1980-2019 in MEDLINE, EMBASE, and Web of Science. Studies were eligible when GM was detected during pregnancy. We ...

Natural antioxidants found in macroalgae represent a significant protective role against oxidative damage. The antioxidant capacity responses to abiotic stresses allow understanding the tolerance and sensitivity of the species. Pyropia and Sargassum inhabiting the intertidal zone exhibit several antioxidant mechanisms against oxidative stress stimulated by environmental factors, such as thermal stress. In this study, we evaluated the antioxidant capacity under different temperatures of the red macroalga ...

This work studies a multilevel inverter topology composed of two MPUC7s cascaded connected fed by only one dc power source by using a high-frequency link (HFL). This topology can provide up to 49 voltage levels by using four asymmetrical dc links, 12 power switches, and an HFL system. The dc link with higher voltage is fed by a dc source. The other dc links, with lower voltage, are supplied from the main one via high-frequency transformer with unidirectional power flow that processes up to 33% of ...

This article presents a novel system to connect a three-phase doubly fed induction generator (DFIG) to a dc-microgrid. The proposed system uses a three-leg rectifier at each side of the stator windings, in an open-end winding configuration. Usually, these legs are composed of insulated gate bipolar transistors (IGBTs). To reduce the number of controlled switches and costs, one of the rectifiers has its IGBT switches replaced by diodes. The converters operating principles, pulsewidth modulation, power ...

Abstract Articular chondral lesions, caused either by trauma or chronic cartilage diseases such as osteoarthritis, present very low ability to self-regenerate. Thus, their current management is basically symptomatic, progressing very often to invasive procedures or even arthroplasties. The use of amniotic fluid stem cells (AFSCs), due to their multipotentiality and plasticity, associated with scaffolds, is a promising alternative for the reconstruction of articular cartilage. Therefore, this study ...

AbstractThis paper presents a finite set model predictive control (FS-MPC) applied to the shunt active power filters (SAPF) based on three-phase inverters connected in parallel sharing the same DC-link. The discrete time model of the system is used to predict the future value of the grid, circulation and offset currents. The presence of circulation and offset currents occurs due to the connection of the two inverters in parallel sharing the same DC-link. There are 64 (sixty-four) switching state vectors ...

Algal polysaccharides exhibit a wide range of biological activities and potential applications. Many of these bioactivities correlate positively with the presence of sulfate groups on the polysaccharides. The most common method used for sulfate quantification in algal samples is the turbidimetric method using the barium chloride-gelatin reagent. However, the original procedure is difficult to adapt for routine analysis since it is laborious and time-consuming. An optimized method was established ...

This article presents a single-phase ac-dc-ac unidirectional three-level three-leg converter. It is composed by a unidirectional T-type leg at the input side, a bidirectional T-type leg at the load side and a bidirectional T-type leg that is shared between the input and load. The proposed converter allows feeding the load voltage with a sinusoidal voltage that has both constant amplitude and frequency. It also keeps the well-known merits of a T-type leg, such as lower conduction losses and better ...

Antioxidants protect cells from the injuries caused by oxidative reactive species, especially under biotic and abiotic stressful conditions. Each kind of free radical presents different oxidative sites and, therefore, different assays could be done to better evaluate the antioxidant capacity of a compound. Little is known about secondary metabolites from Annona coriacea Mart. (Annonaceae), especially related to their antioxidant capacity. Eleven flavonols were isolated from leaves: Quercetin-3-O- ...

This paper discusses the fault tolerance performance of two hybrid six-phase drive systems under single-phase open-circuit fault. The topologies are considered to be hybrid because each of the two three-phase groups of the six-phase machine is connected to a different type of converter. One group is connected to a two-level converter and the other group is connected to a dual converter in an open-end arrangement. A compensation strategy is discussed in order to keep the rated operation even after ...

The proposed converter allows to supply the load with a voltage with constant amplitude and frequency, and to operate with the grid current with low harmonic distortion and high power factor. In addition, the converter can be used to mitigate fundamental overvoltage and voltage harmonics at the grid. The system model, regions of operation, a power flow analysis, and a ...

Babesia divergens is an obligate intracellular protozoan parasite that causes zoonotic disease. Central to its pathogenesis is the ability of the parasite to invade host red blood cells of diverse species, and, once in the host blood stream, to manipulate the composition of its population to allow it to endure unfavorable conditions. Here we will review key in vitro studies relating to the survival strategies that B. divergens adopts during its intraerythrocytic development to persist and how proliferation ...

Abstract Background Preterm birth is the leading cause of mortality and disability in newborn and infants. Having a short cervix increases the risk of preterm birth, which can be accessed by a transvaginal ultrasound scan during the second trimester. In women with a short cervix, vaginal progesterone and pessary can both reduce this risk, which progesterone more established than cervical pessary. The aim of this study is to compare the use of vaginal progesterone alone versus the association of ...

Plants are exposed to a vast array of pathogens. The interaction between them may be classified in compatible and incompatible. Polyamines (PAs) are involved in defense responses, as well as salicylic acid (SA), gentisic acid (GA) and nitric oxide (NO), which can increase the content of reactive oxygen species (ROS), creating a harsh environment to the pathogen. ROS can also damage the host cell and they can be controlled by ascorbate and glutathione. Among phytopathogens, one of the major threats to ...
