<b><i>Background:</i></b> Cytokines have been shown to be involved in traumatic brain injury (TBI). We investigated the independent association between serum levels of IL-10 and TNF-α hospital mortality patients with severe TBI. <b><i>Methods:</i></b> Serum were determined after a median period (interquartile range (IQ) 25–75) 10 h (IQ 5–18) TBI 93 consecutive randomly selected mild (n = 18) moderate 16) In TBI, additional blood samples...
The association between biomarkers of oxidative stress and the prognosis patients with traumatic brain injury (TBI) remains inconclusive.The objective was to investigate plasma levels lipid peroxidation (thiobarbituric acid reactive species [TBARS]) protein oxidation (carbonyl) hospital mortality severe TBI.Plasma TBARS carbonyl were determined in 79 consecutive TBI (Glasgow Coma Scale [GCS] ≤8) at a median 12 hours (interquartile range [IQ] 25-75, 6.5-19.0), 30 (IQ 24.7-37.0), 70 55.0-78.5)...
Abstract The early detection of congenital anomaly epidemics occurs when comparing current with previous frequencies in the same population. success epidemiologic surveillance depends on numerous factors, including accuracy rates available base period, wide population coverage, and short periodicity analysis. This study aims to describe Latin American network malformation surveillance: ReLAMC, created increase America. We main steps, tasks, strategies used, preliminary results. From 2017...
Since previous studies have shown that ovariectomy impairs memory and cognition, we investigated whether physical exercise would affect ovariectomy-induced deficits in inhibitory avoidance Morris water maze tasks. Female adult Wistar rats were assigned to one of the following groups: sham (submitted surgery without removal ovaries), exercise, (Ovx) Ovx plus exercise. Thirty days after or surgery, animals submitted 1 month treadmill training for 20 min, three times per week. Rats than tested...
Abstract In the present study we evaluated effect of acute and chronic homocysteine administrations on glutamate uptake in parietal cortex rats. The immunocontent glial transporter (GLAST) sodium‐dependent glutamate/aspartate (GLT‐1) same cerebral structure was also investigated. For treatment, neonate or young rats received a single injection saline (control) were sacrificed 1, 8, 12 h, 7 30 days later. administered to twice day at 8 h interval from their 6th 28th old; controls treated...
