The recent decline of Apis mellifera populations around the world has been subject of intense research due to ecological and economic damages resulting from the loss of pollination services. The intensive use of insecticides from the neonicotinoids group is among the possible causal factors of this decline, including also sub-lethal effects. However, the use of synthetic insecticides has been increased on a global scale in the recent decades. In order to evaluate an alternative to the use of neonicotinoids, ...

A transient heat transfer model was developed to numerically predict the thermal behaviour of the external walls of a room under realistic outdoor conditions. The excitation is not simply sinusoidal even though it is considered to have daily periodicity. The numerical model is based on the finite difference method and handles one-dimensional heat conduction through multilayered walls. The boundary condition at the outer surface of the wall is described with the sol-air temperature concept. The temperatures ...

Technological advances in the last decades allowed significant evolution in head and neck surgery toward less invasive procedures, with better esthetic and functional outcomes, without compromising oncologic soundness. Although robotic thyroid surgery has been performed for some years now and several published series reported its safety and feasibility, it remains the center of significant controversy. This study shows the results of a case series of robotic thyroid surgery, combined or not with ...

Geranium robertianum L. has been used in folk medicine and herbalism practice for the treatment of various conditions, but the study of its bioactivity has been barely addressed. Although its phytochemical composition has received some attention, contributions to the nutritional composition are practically unknown. Herein, G. robertianum gathered in Trás-os-Montes, Northeastern Portugal, was chemically characterized regarding nutritional parameters, and the antioxidant activity and cytotoxicity ...

Abstract The Cooling Load Temperature Difference (CLTD) values available in the literature for using the simplified CLTD method only apply to rooms under constant indoor air temperature. Due to this limitation, the present paper extends the application of this simplified approach to cooling and heating loads estimation of rooms with daily and weekend setback and setup thermostats, and introduces the term thermal load temperature difference (TLTD). To generate the values of TLTD, a transient heat transfer ...

The sequence of the ventricular activation spread and the QRS complex morphologies in different points of the epicardial surface of the normal human heart have been reported in previous papers.1–4 In one of them1 our first results in pathologic hearts were published. Since then we have studied a greater number of cases, and by means of a larger pericardial opening we have been able to search for a greater number of points in the epicardium. The present paper is intended to report our new findings.

Essential oils (EOs) from plants have been considered as a viable alternative to the use of synthetic insecticides for the control of insect pests. In the current study, we evaluated the formicidal activity of essential oils of two Myrcia lundiana (Myrtaceae) chemotypes, their major compounds and their binaries mixtures on Acromyrmex balzani (Emery, 1980) (Hymenoptera: Formicidae). The effects of essential oils on A. balzani were evaluated by fumigation toxicity bioassays and behavioral tests. The major ...

Current study was conducted to assess the effectiveness of the polyphenol trans-ferulic acid (TFA) as an antiemetic agent using in vivo and in silico methods. To evaluate this, we induced emesis in 3-day-old chicks through the oral administration of copper sulfate (CuSO4·5H2O) at a dose of 50 mg/kg. To ascertain the potential antiemetic mechanism of TFA, we employed various reference drugs such as domperidone (6 mg/kg), ondansetron (5 mg/kg), and hyoscine (21 mg/kg) as positive control groups, while ...

Oral cancer is a public health problem with high prevalence in the population. Local tumor control is best achieved by complete surgical resection with adequate margins. A disease-free surgical margin correlates with a lower rate of local recurrence and a higher rate of disease-free survival. Fluorescence spectroscopy is a noninvasive diagnostic tool that can aid in real-time cancer detection. The technique, which evaluates the biochemical composition and structure of tissue fluorescence, is relatively ...

Multidrug resistance (MDR) is the major cause of cancer treatment failure. The ATP-binding cassette-B1 (ABCB1) transporter, also known as MDR1 or P-glycoprotein, is thought to promote the efflux of drugs from cells. MDR is also associated with the multidrug resistance-associated protein 1 (ABCC1) and the lung resistance-related protein (LRP), a human major vault protein. Moreover, MDR has a complex relationship with lipids. The ABCB1 has been reported to modulate cellular cholesterol homeostasis. Conversely, ...
