Osteoarthritis of the knee (kOA) is a disease that mainly affects the elderly and can lead to major physical and functional limitations. However, the specific effects of walking, particularly on the immune system, are unknown. Therefore, this study aimed to analyze the effect of 12 weeks of walking (3×/week) on the leukocyte profile and quality of life (QL) of elderly women with kOA. Sixteen women (age: 67±4 years, body mass index: 28.07±4.16 kg/m2) participated in a walking program. The variables were ...

A cohort study was performed from January 2014 to December 2016 in a Brazilian neonatal intensive care unit, including neonates with high risk for infection and death. We estimated bloodstream infection (BSI) incidence and conducted a survival analysis, considering the time to death and to the first episode of BSI as outcomes, comparing very low birth weight (VLBW) neonates with the remaining neonates. An extended Cox model was performed and the hazard ratio (HR) was calculated for different time periods. ...

Background: Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) has become a therapeutic option for high-risk or non-operable patients with severe symptomatic aortic stenosis. Atrioventricular conduction disturbances requiring permanent pacemaker (PPM) are a common and clinically important complication. Objectives: To evaluate the incidence of conduction disorders (CDs) after TAVI and the need for subsequent PPM implantation. To identify the predictors of postoperative PPM implantation. Methods: Retrospective ...

Neste ensaio abordamos algumas pesquisas que, nos últimos dez anos ou mais, têm recuperado a obra do fundador do Positivismo, Augusto Comte. Essa recuperação consiste em perceber os trabalhos de Comte em sua inteireza e a partir de sua lógica interna, enfatizando em particular a sua segunda grande obra, o Système de politique positive (1851-1854), e as suas contribuições para a reflexão social e política contemporânea. A fim de tornar inteligível a novidade dessas novas pesquisas, apresentamos uma ...

Starch nutritional fractions as well as thermal properties and other analysis are essential for food and industrial application. Cassava bagasse is an important agro-industrial residue and its starch content was evaluated using two alternative methods. Thermal characterization and microscopy analyses helped to understand how hydrolysis digests starchy fraction of cassava bagasse. The melting point of cassava starch occurred at 169.2ºC. Regarding TG analyses, after moisture content, there were observed ...

Abstract Rosmarinic acid, a plant-derived compound with antiangiogenic activity, can be applied for the treatment of ocular diseases related to neovascularization, such as diabetic retinopathy, macular edema, and age-related macular degeneration. These diseases represent the leading causes of blindness worldwide if they are not properly treated. Intravitreal devices allow for localized drug delivery to the posterior segment, increasing the drug bioavailability and promoting extended release, thus, ...

Abstract Mitochondria perform crucial roles in many biochemical processes, and mitochondrial depolarization is an early sign of platelet apoptosis. The mitochondrial membrane potential is usually evaluated through JC‐1 probe, but it can also be assessed with MitoTracker probes. Our aim was to evaluate mitochondrial viability in stored canine platelet concentrates (PCs) with the fluorescent probes JC‐1 and MitoTracker. Platelets from 22 canine PCs were stained with JC‐1 and MitoTracker probes on days ...

Biodegradable films were prepared using regular and waxy starch and reinforced with cellulose nanofibers (CNF) from eucalyptus. Both films were characterized by their optical, structural, barrier, thermal and mechanical properties. The films presented a homogeneous, smooth surface without bubbles or cracks and good handling characteristics. Both films showed a mixture of B and V-type diffraction patterns. The water solubility of the samples decreased after the incorporation of nanocellulose. The ...

We describe the case of a 41-year-old man with congenital heart disease and infective endocarditis (IE), who presented multiple vegetations attached to the pulmonary, mitral, and aortic valves. Three valve replacements were performed, but the patient developed an abscess at the mitral-aortic intervalvular fibrosa and died due to sepsis. We briefly discuss the indications for surgery in IE, emphasizing its role in the treatment of uncontrolled infection.

The increased consumption and incorrect discharge of non-biodegradable plastics is increasingly concerning. The search for biodegradable plastics has grown, with starch films an attractive option due to their relatively low cost and abundance. Studies of non-conventional starch sources have the potential to discover novel properties and alternatives to diversify agricultural resources used for the production of bioplastics. This review discusses recent advances in relation to the development and ...

The behaviors of a biofuel and a fossil fuel were evaluated by different techniques, namely thermal analysis (Thermogravimetry-TG and Differential Thermal Analysis-DTA) and engine performance tests. From TG and DTA curves, two decomposition phases were identified for diesel fuel with ignition temperature (IT) at 250 °C and three phases for biodiesel fuel with IT at 300 °C. Combining conversion (α) versus temperature and a model-free kinetics method, the range of activation energies (Ea) values were determined ...

Ultrafiltration is an attractive downstream processing technique for concentrating enzymes and could be considered the primary step of purification. However, the efficiency of this process is often limited by protein fouling and shear-induced enzyme inactivation, which decreases permeate flux and results in the loss of enzyme activity. Although the rejection of phytase was higher than 99%, the loss of the enzyme activity was 14% during operation, indicating that the shear forces generated in the ...

Abstract Alzheimer′s Disease (AD) is the most common cause of dementia in elderly people. The presynaptic terminal is an important site of pathological changes in AD, leading to synaptic loss in specific brain regions, such as in the cortex and hippocampus. In this study, we investigated synaptosomal-associated protein, 25-kDa ( SNAP25 ) mRNA levels and promoter DNA methylation in post mortem brain tissues (entorhinal and auditory cortices and hippocampus) from healthy elderly and AD subjects as well as in peripheral ...

Abstract The objective of this study is to produce Pickering emulsions with starch nanocrystals from different starch sources. Bean starch is less susceptible to hydrolysis, followed by corn, and cassava starches. In both botanical sources the acid hydrolysis greatly reduce the amylose content in the nanoparticles. Oxidation increases the zeta potential of all the nanocrystals. In addition, the value of polydispersity decreases. A peak at 1,735 cm −1 is detected by means of mid‐infrared spectroscopy, ...
