ABSTRACT Background Screen use has become nearly universal, especially in children. Therefore, it is important not only to comprehend its effects on health but also understand patterns of use. We aim describe screen among children assessed at 2, 4, and 6–7 years, based device, period the day, child/family characteristics. Methods Longitudinal study, with participants 2015 Pelotas (Brazil) Birth Cohort, a population‐based study including all living newborns city between 1 January 31 December...
Resumo Este estudo tem por objetivo descrever a prevalência e os fatores associados aos transtornos mentais comuns em mulheres de 18-49 anos, residentes da zona rural do município Rio Grande-RS. Foi realizado um transversal com coleta dados realizada no ano 2017. utilizado processo amostragem sistemático dos domicílios área município. Para o rastreamento utilizou-se General Health Questionnaire-12 (GHQ-12). utilizada regressão Poisson bruta ajustada para estimar as razões prevalências (RP)...
Nerve growth factor (NGF) is an important member of the neurotrophin family and its alteration has been associated with psychiatric disorders. Functionality consists activities that individual can perform, as well their social participation, which in analyzing carrier living conditions subjects suffering. Several studies have evaluated functionality bipolar disorder; however, no other mental There are also few investigating association between biological bases This study aimed to evaluate...
This study investigated the association between screen time in adolescence and Attention Deficit Disorder (ADHD) at 22 years old.A sample of 2333 participants aged 11 old without ADHD from 1993 Pelotas Birth Cohort Study (Brazil) was followed up until age 22. Screen variables included spent television, video game computer 11, 15, 18 old. assessed years.ADHD symptoms positively associated with television years, total ages years. Television were diagnosis age.Our findings may contribute to...
Combustion of lean air/fuel mixtures in an inert porous medium provides efficient way to convert chemical energy hydrocarbons into thermal energy. The effectively redistributes the heat allowing reacting mixture be preheated before combustion front. For a propane/air (equivalence ratio Φ ~ 0.6), front is steady and temperature subadiabatic. At lower equivalence ratios wave media can move synchronously downstream developing superadiabatic temperatures. This effect allows operate at range...
A numerical study of the combustion lean methane/air mixtures in a porous media burner is performed using novelty geometry, cylindrical annular space. The process takes place space located between two pipes, which are filled with alumina beads 5.6 mm diameter forming porosity 0.4. outer tube 3.82 cm isolated; meanwhile inner 2 covered by continuous set thermoelectric elements (TE) for transforming heat energy into electricity. To achieve and maintain proper temperature gradient on TE,...
Objective This study examined the association between WM and ADHD symptoms in young adults whether IQ-score influenced this association. Method Data from 1993 Pelotas (Brazil) Birth Cohort Study were analyzed ( N = 2,845). Working memory collected at 22 years. IQ was age 18. Poisson regression with robust variance used to assess associations working symptoms. We also evaluated modified Results negatively associated Inattention of ADHD. The hyperactivity-impulsivity varied by IQ. Conclusions...
More than 2.7 million hospitalizations of COVID-19-infected patients have occurred in Europe alone since the outbreak coronavirus 2020. Interventions against SARS-CoV-2 are still high need to prevent admissions ICUs worldwide. FX06, a naturally occurring peptide humans and other mammals, has potential reduce capillary leak by improving endothelial dysfunction thus preventing deterioration patients. With IXION, we want investigate FX06 disease progression hospitalized, non-intubated COVID-19
ABSTRACT Objective: To measure the prevalence of illicit drugs use in lifetime, last year and month, as well factors associated to year's its association with academic migration, among undergraduate students a university southern Brazil. Methods: In this cross-sectional study, data were collected through self-administered questionnaire. It was conducted clustered systematic sampling. For multivariate analyses, it used Poisson regression. Results: 1,423 participated. The drug month 42.4%,...
Most research on the association between high body mass index (BMI) and working memory (WM) has been cross-sectional in design, limiting conclusions about long-term effects of overweight obesity WM. The aim this study was to examine BMI trajectory from 11 22 years with WM at age. Data 1993 Pelotas (Brazil) Birth Cohort Study were analyzed (N = 3,010). Information collected ages 11, 15, 18, years. Group-based modeling used separately for each sex identify trajectories. Working Memory...
Incisional hernia (IH) is an important surgical complication that has several ways of prevention, including modifications in the technique initial procedure. Its incidence can reach 69% high-risk patients and long-term follow-up. Of risky procedures, open abdominal aortic aneurysmectomy one with highest risk. Ways to reduce this morbid were suggested, prophylactic mesh rises as tool prevent recurrence. A retrospective cohort study review medical records undergoing vascular surgery for...
Brazil’s education system lags behind international standards, with two-fifths of students scoring below the minimum level proficiency in mathematics, science, and reading. Thus, this study combined machine learning traditional statistics to identify most important predictors interpret their effects on PISA 2018 reading tests. Predictors encompassed a wide range variables, sociodemographic characteristics, teaching processes, non-cognitive skills. The outcome present was levels were grouped...
Abstract: This study aimed to investigate the association between child maltreatment and human capital, measured by intelligence quotient (IQ) at age 18 years schooling 22 in 3,736 members from a population-based birth cohort Southern Brazil. A multiple linear regression was used assess capital measurements. Physical emotional abuse physical neglect occurring up 15 of were considered maltreatment. associated with lower IQ scores women (β = -4.40; 95%CI: -6.82; -1.99) men -2.58; -5.17; -0.01)...

Incisional hernia (IH) is an abdominal wall defect due to a previous laparotomy, and surgical repair the only treatment. IH has negative impact on patients' quality of life. In last decades, approach improved from open laparoscopic robotic surgery with objective promoting better function after reconstruction. Today, enhanced-view totally extraperitoneal (reTEP) one most advanced techniques for
