Severe obesity affects the body favoring the development of serious diseases, including hypertension, diabetes mellitus, atherosclerosis and non alcoholic fatty liver disease. Bariatric procedures increased in Brazil in the last decade.The purpose of this study was to verify if gender and age in date of procedure resulted significant differences in metabolic syndrome parameters after surgery.The study involved 205 medical records of adult patients undergoing Roux-en-Y gastric bypass, stratified ...

New bimetallic calcium–actinide (Th and U) oxides were synthesized and tested as catalysts for the oxidative coupling of methane (OCM) using nitrous oxide as oxidant. The reaction main products were primarily C2 hydrocarbons (C2H4 and C2H6), particularly over the bimetallic calcium–thorium oxide catalyst (CH4 conversion ≈ 28%; C2 selectivity ≈ 53%; C2 yield ≈ 15% at 800 °C). The selectivity to hydrocarbons is promoted when thorium replaces uranium on the bimetallic calcium–actinide oxides (at CH4 isoconversion = ...

Dams provide water supply, flood protection, and hydropower generation benefits, but also harm native species by altering the natural flow regime, and degrading the aquatic and riparian habitats. In the present study, which comprised the Douro River basin located in the North of Portugal, the cost-benefit assessment of dams was based upon a balance between the touristic benefits of a dammed Douro, and the ecological benefits of less fragmented Douro sub-catchments. Focused on four sub-catchments ( ...

Bimetallic calcium-lanthanide oxides (Ln = La, Ce, Sm, Gd, Yb) were tested for the first time as catalysts in the oxidative coupling of methane (OCM) using nitrous oxide as oxidant. The reaction main products were C2 hydrocarbons. The best results were those obtained with bimetallic calcium-lanthanum and calcium-samarium oxides that achieve hydrocarbons yields comparable to the best reported in the literature using O2 as oxidant. The catalytic performance is clearly dependent of an interaction between ...

Abstract The partial oxidation of methane (POM) was studied over bimetallic nickel‐ f block element oxide nanocatalysts prepared by a modified sol‐gel method. They proved to be active (conversion of methane, 50–70%) at a relatively low temperatures (550 and 650 °C) and highly selective towards synthesis gas production (selectivity, H 2 60–90% and CO 50–80%). The activity and selectivity depend on the surface basicity and size of the bimetallic oxide nanoparticles: lower particle size and higher basicity, ...

The preparation of nanoparticles and nanofibers of bimetallic oxides containing f block element perovskites of the type LaNiO3, SmCoO3 and DyFeO3 was undertaken. They were obtained by electrospinning and its formation simply tuneable in the subsequent oxidation step-heating rate. These bimetallic oxides were tested as catalysts in the partial oxidation of methane aiming the production of syngas. The best results were those obtained over the nickel-based catalysts, which have an activity and selectivity ...

In vitro-matured (IVM) bovine oocytes were activated with single and combined treatments of strontium (S), ionomycin (I) and 6-DMAP (D). Using oocytes IVM for 26 h, we observed that activation altered cell cycle kinetics (faster progression, MIII arrest, or direct transition from MII to pronuclear stage) when compared to in vitro fertilization. The effect of oocyte age on early parthenogenesis was assessed in oocytes IVM for 22, 26 and 30 h. Better results in pronuclear development were obtained in treatments ...

As an important step in the nuclear transfer (NT) procedure, we evaluated the effect of three different treatments for oocyte activation on the in vitro and in vivo developmental capacity of bovine reconstructed embryos: (1) strontium, which has been successfully used in mice but not yet tested in cattle; (2) ionomycin and 6-dimethylaminopurine (6-DMAP), a standard treatment used in cattle; (3) ionomycin and strontium, in place of 6-DMAP. As regards NT blastocyst development, no difference was observed ...

The partial oxidation of methane (POM) was studied over eutectic potassium chloride molten salts of the type KCl-MClx (M = Li, Mg, Co, Cu, Zn). The catalytic performance is clearly different and depends on the metal M. The reaction products were CO, CO2, C2 (C2H4, C2H6), C3 (C3H6, C3H8) and C4 (C4H10). The formation of hydrogen was never detected. The best results for the formation of hydrocarbons were those obtained over the potassium–copper molten salt (KCl-CuCl2, Sel. ≥ 80%) whereas, on the contrary, over ...

There is conflicting evidence regarding the benefits of intensive speech and language therapy (SLT), particularly because intensity is often confounded with total SLT provided.A two-centre, randomized, rater-blinded, parallel study was conducted to compare the efficacy of 100 h of SLT in a regular (RT) versus intensive (IT) treatment in sub-acute post-stroke aphasia.Consecutive patients with aphasia, within 3 months of a left hemisphere ischemic stroke, were randomized to IT (2 h per day × 5 days per ...

Here we report the isolation of Newcastle disease virus (NDV) from cloacal swabs obtained from penguins in the South Atlantic Antarctic region (62°08S, 58°25W). Samples of 100 penguins from King George Island were tested by real-time PCR, of which 2 (2%) were positive for NDV. The positive samples were isolated in embryonated chicken eggs and their matrix and fusion proteins genes were partially sequenced.

Cerebral venous thrombosis (CVT) is a rare disease that frequently occurs in young women of childbearing age, with variable clinical presentation in regions with limited access to diagnostic imaging or specialized neurological care. In the last decade, there has been an increase in the number of studies on CVT in Latin America, which may contribute to a better epidemiological description of the disease in this region and, consequently, its early diagnosis.Our study aims to review the risk factors, ...

Introduction Breast radial scar (RS) management remains controversial. The need for surgical excision is supported by the concern of an associated high-grade lesion missed in the biopsy. The aim of this study was to assess histologic upgrade rate after a percutaneous biopsy, to determine if vacuum assisted biopsy prevents the need for subsequent RS surgical resection and to evaluate the upgrade risk factors. Patients and methods This was a uni-institutional retrospective study of consecutive patients ...

The analysis is based on spherical shallow shell equations, and solutions are obtained through the use of double Fourier series expressions to represent the displacement and loading terms. Three types of loading were considered: radial load, overturning moment and tangential shear. In order to test the results, an experiment and finite element investigation has been carried ...
