(1) Objectives: To evaluate the frequency and factors associated with the Post-COVID-19 Syndrome (PCS) in COVID-19 survivors after 3 and 6 months of hospital discharge; (2) Methods: We conducted a cohort study with patients who were hospitalized with COVID-19 in a referral public hospital in Brasília, Federal District, Brazil. After 3 and 6 months of discharge, patients answered a questionnaire about PCS symptoms. Poisson regression with robust variance was used to estimate the crude and adjusted ...

Abstract Background Synaptic dysfunction and degeneration are central to Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and have been found to correlate strongly with cognitive decline. Thus, studying cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) biomarkers reflecting synaptic degeneration, such as the presynaptic protein synaptosomal-associated protein 25 (SNAP-25), is of importance to better understand the AD pathophysiology. Methods We compared a newly developed Single molecule array (Simoa) immunoassay for SNAP-25 with an in-house immunoprecipitation ...

<b><i>Background and Aim:</i></b> Cerebrovascular disease may progress asymptomatically in the early stages of Fabry disease (FD). Our aim was to test whether functional transcranial Doppler (fTCD) could provide useful data in the evaluation of these presymptomatic FD patients. <b><i>Methods:</i></b> A cohort of 12 adult FD patients from families with the classical phenotype of the disease was evaluated with fTCD in the posterior cerebral artery. <b>< ...

Abstract Aims Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is a common complication of left heart disease (LHD, Group 2 PH) leading to right ventricular (RV) failure and death. Several loss-of-function (LOF) mutations in KCNK3 were identified in pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH, Group 1 PH). Additionally, we found that KCNK3 dysfunction is a hallmark of PAH at pulmonary vascular and RV levels. However, the role of KCNK3 in the pathobiology of PH due to LHD is unknown. Methods and results We evaluated the role of ...

The incidence of abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) repairs in Portugal is one of the lowest mentioned in the literature. This phenomenon can be justified either by a low prevalence of the disease or by its low detection rate. To date, the prevalence of the pathology is unknown. The objective of the study was to estimate the prevalence of AAA and its associated risk factors, in men aged ≥65 years and to evaluate the population's disease awareness.All males aged ≥65 years registered in a Portuguese primary ...

The aims of this study were to evaluate the physical and chemical properties, cytotoxicity and dentinal tubule penetration of a new calcium silicate-based root canal dressing. For pH and calcium ion release evaluation (1, 24, 72 and 168 h) were used a pH meter and colorimetric spectrophotometer, respectively. Radiopacity evaluation followed the ISO 6876:2012. Cytotoxicity was evaluated by the percentage of cell viability using MTT assay. Illustrative images of dentinal tubule penetration were obtained ...

Objective: Research on the assimilation model has suggested that psychological change takes place in a sequence of stages punctuated by setbacks, that is, by transient reversals in the developmental course. This study analyzed such setbacks in one good outcome case and one poor outcome case of Emotion-focused therapy (EFT) for depression. Method: Intensive analyses of five transcribed sessions from each case identified 26 setbacks in the good outcome case and 27 in the poor outcome case. The reason ...

BACKGROUND: Metabolic acidosis frequently is present in surgical patients; however, different types of metabolic acidosis (hyperlactatemia, hyperchloremia, and others) may have different relationships to perioperative outcomes. We hypothesized that in postoperative surgical patients, distinctive types of metabolic acidosis would correlate differently with the outcomes of high-risk surgeries. METHODS: A prospective, multicenter observational study was performed in 3 different tertiary care hospitals. ...

Food ingredients obtained from natural sources have been a constant demand from the food industry, since the consumers are avoiding the consumption of foods prepared with synthetic additives. In this study, red cabbage (Brassica oleracea L. var. capitata L. f. rubra) anthocyanin-rich extract was microencapsulated to produce a natural food colorant. For this, the microparticles were produced by spray drying using the concentrated (CE) and raw extract (RE) of red cabbage, in different concentrations ...

SUMMARY The enzymatic activities of NTPDase and 5′nucleotidase are important to regulate the concentration of adenine nucleotides, known molecules involved in many physiological functions. Therefore, the objective of this study was to evaluate the activity of NTPDase and 5′nucleotidase in serum and liver tissue of rats infected by Fasciola hepatica . Rats were divided into two groups: uninfected control and infected. NTPDase activity for adenosine triphosphate (ATP) and ADP substrates in the liver ...

Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is one of the most frequently isolated agents in both nosocomial and community settings. It is a constant challenge for antibacterial therapy. Therefore, it becomes essential to understand the epidemiology of MRSA isolates in the institution and/or region to guide empirical therapy. The objective of this study was to evaluate the epidemiological characteristics of MRSA isolates in the state of Santa Catarina, Brazil, and determine if there is a clonal ...

Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is a severe cardiovascular disease that is caused by the progressive occlusion of the distal pulmonary arteries, eventually leading to right heart failure and death. Almost 40% of patients with PAH are iron deficient. Although widely studied, the mechanisms linking between PAH and iron deficiency remain unclear. Here we review the mechanisms regulating iron homeostasis and the preclinical and clinical data available on iron deficiency in PAH. Then we discuss ...

Soil organic matter (SOM) is important to fertility, since it performs several functions such as cycling, water and nutrient retention and soil aggregation, in addition to being an energy requirement for biological activity. This study proposes new trends to the Embrapa, Walkley-Black, and Mebius methods that allowed the determination of SOM by spectrophotometry, increasing functionality. The mass of 500 mg was reduced to 200 mg, generating a mean of 60 % saving of reagents and a decrease of 91 % in ...

A mechanistic model based on Dynamic Energy Budget (DEB) theory was developed to predict the combined effects of ocean warming, acidification and decreased food availability on growth and reproduction of three commercially important marine fish species: white seabream (Diplodus sargus), zebra seabream (Diplodus cervinus) and Senegalese sole (Solea senegalensis). Model simulations used a parameter set for each species, estimated by the Add-my-Pet method using data from laboratory experiments complemented ...

Este trabalho é uma reflexão sobre os desafios da psicanálise de grupo na instituição. O texto faz uma análise do contexto institucional desde a reforma psiquiátrica, que buscou o enfrentamento da exclusão social, como processo sociohistórico e simbólico que atinge a identidade do portador e a dos familiares. Assim, a relação entre o cuidado com o sofrimento e a assistência à exclusão é discutida sob o prisma da integração e da revalorização da dimensão clínica do tratamento. A distinção entre demanda, ...

Recurrence of cardiac myxoma is a rare condition, observed in about 3% of patients in sporadic cases, although it is more frequent in familial ones. Several mechanisms have been proposed to explain such recurrence, and the importance of increased vascularization as a facilitating feature is the subject of debate. The authors report the case of a non-familial right atrial myxoma, unusual for both its histopathology and recurrence.

Leveling the curve of Spee is a commonly-used strategy to correct deep bites. Although several techniques have been proposed to intrude mandibular incisors (MI), flaring of these teeth is often observed and in many instances undesired. A three-dimensional (3D) finite element model (FEM) was used to locate the ideal point of force application (PFA) to achieve pure MI intrusion with the three-piece arches' technique.
