RESUMO Embora não seja obrigatória, a residência médica faz parte do processo de ensino e da formação dos médicos e é considerada padrão ouro na modalidade de ensino de pós-graduação lato sensu. Entretanto, o número de vagas para residência médica não acompanhou a expansão dos cursos de graduação em Medicina, gerando uma intensa disputa por uma vaga nos cursos de residência, o que fez proliferar os cursos preparatórios para os exames de residência (CP). A evasão do interno de Medicina de suas atividades ...

Organizations have been currently adopting Enterprise risk management (ERM), an approach in which risks are managed holistically. ERM-related competencies are mandatory to develop a career as an accountant, however, it remains unknown whether the development of these competencies impacts students' work readiness. To fill in these gaps, the objective of this study was to assess the effects of the development of ERM-related competencies on work readiness in accounting students. The study was performed ...

The mechanisms underlying the functional improvement after injection of multipotent mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) in infarcted hearts remain incompletely understood. The aim of this study was to investigate if soluble factors secreted by MSCs promote cardioprotection. For this purpose, conditioned medium (CM) was obtained after three passages from MSC cultures submitted to 72 h of conditioning in serum-free DMEM under normoxia (NCM) or hypoxia (HCM) conditions. CM was concentrated 25-fold before ...

Studies suggest that patients with subclinical hypothyroidism (SH) have sympathovagal imbalance, which could lead to a slower heart rate (HR) response in the transition from rest to exercise. Thus the objective of this study was to investigate the behavior of the HR kinetics in patients with SH during the transition from rest to exercise. The study included 18 SH women [thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) = 6.95 ± 2.94 μIU/ml and free thyroxine (FT 4 ) = 0.96 ± 0.15 ng/dl] and 17 euthyroid women (TSH = 2.28 ± 0.84 μIU/ ...

The first case, male, 49 years old, presents symptoms similar to multiple sclerosis. The second case, male 15 years old, presents with parenchymatous compromise and an association with antiphospholipid antibody. And the third case, female 25 years old, presents an acute meningitis. Neuro-Behçet must always be included as a differential diagnosis of neurological disorders ...

Paracoccidioidomycosis (PCM) is a public health concern in Latin America and South America that when not correctly treated can lead to patient death. In this study, the influence of melanin produced by Paracoccidioides spp. on the effects of treatment with antimicrobial photodynamic inhibition (aPI) and antifungal drugs was evaluated. aPI was performed using toluidine blue (TBO) as a photosensitizer and a 630-nm light-emitting diode (LED) light. The antifungals tested were itraconazole and amphotericin ...

We studied the kinetics of in vivo nitrite production in the inflammatory reaction induced by M. bovis BCG into the pleural space. Pleural macrophages harvested from C57Bl/6 mice after acute BCG infection produced high levels of nitric oxide (NO). Enhanced production was obtained upon stimulation with LPS plus IFN-gamma. In sharp contrast, macrophages from DBA-2 mice produced low levels of NO, as nitrite, at the same time interval (24 h after BCG infection), being completely refractory to further ...
