Abstract Introduction Aortic pressure increase per time unit (dP/dt) has been recently shown to predict the risk of progression aortic stenosis (AS), with a proposed cut-off 600 mmHg/s (Panel A). Whether it applies other populations remains be elucidated. Methods In this single-center retrospective study, we included patients isolated moderate AS who had performed complete transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) assessment in our center between 2014 and 2022. The primary endpoint was severe AS,...
Introdução: Observa-se um aumento constante na incidência de traumas craniocerebrais. No geral, a reconstrução faciais está constantemente ligada uma operação desafiadora, qual o papel cada da equipe deve estar bem definido fim evita possíveis complicações inesperadas. Objetivo: Avaliar cirurgia plástica em Metodologia: Trata-se revisão integrativa base dados PUBMED utilizando os descritores “RECONSTRUCTION AND CRANIOCEREBRAL TRAUMA PLASTIC’’ para artigos publicados entre 2020 e 2025....
Cystoseira is a common brown algal genus widely distributed throughout the Atlantic and Mediterranean regions whose taxonomical assignment of specimens often hampered by intra- interspecific morphological variability. In this study, three mitochondrial regions, namely cytochrome oxidase subunit 1 (COI), 23S rDNA (23S), 23S-tRNAVal intergenic spacer (mt-spacer) were used to analyse phylogenetic relationships 22 taxa (n = 93 samples). A total 135 sequences (48 from COI, 43 44 mt-spacer) newly...
Yeast acquisition begins at birth; however, the contribution of mother on yeast transmission to offspring and associated resistance is yet be clarified. The aim this study was explore vertical yeasts their antifungal susceptibility profile in early life. Oral, fecal, breastmilk samples were collected from 73 mother–child pairs four twelve weeks after delivery cultured Sabouraud dextrose agar with chloramphenicol. isolates identified by MALDI-TOF MS. studied microsatellite genotyping....
In early life, maternal factors are of the utmost relevance for oral microbiome acquisition and maturation. Therefore, our study explored impact factors, such as saliva breastmilk colonization, cardiovascular risk (CRF), type delivery, health, caregiving habits on prevalence potential pathogenic opportunistic bacteria in life. A total 26 healthy mothers, 23 mothers with CRF, their 50 children were included samples (child's swabs, mother's saliva, breastmilk) collected 4 to 12 weeks after...
Heart failure (HF) is among the leading causes of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Several conditions trigger left ventricular chronic pressure or volume overload, hypertrophy, systolic diastolic dysfunction, to cardiac remodeling a rapid progression toward HF. Therapeutic interventions elicit reverse (RR), highly variable myocardial response that ranges from none total structural/functional recovery. However, HF patients present several comorbidities medications mask comprehensive...
The consumption of non-sugar sweeteners (NSS) has increased during pregnancy. European Food Safety Agency suggested that steviol glycosides, such as Rebaudioside A (RebA), the major sweetener component stevia, are safe for humans up to a dose 4 mg/kg body weight/day. However, World Health Organization recommended in 2023 restraint using NSS, including at any life stage, highlighting need study NSS safety early periods development. We aimed mitochondrial and cardiometabolic effects long-term...
This study describes the impact of cardiovascular risk factors (CVR) in pregnancy-induced remodeling and postpartum reverse (up to 1 yr) by applying advanced statistic methods (multivariate generalized linear mixed-effects models) a prospective cohort pregnant women. Aiming extrapolate pathological conditions, this invaluable “human model” allowed us demonstrate that arterial hypertension is critical CVR for worse RR ST2/IL33-receptors CRP are potential biomarkers hypertrophy reversal.
Periodontal disease is a relevant oral in dogs and nisin-biogel has been previously proposed to be used its control. Enterococci, as inhabitants of the cavity with high genetic versatility, are reliable bacterial model for antimicrobial studies. Our goal was evaluate vivo influence long-term dental application on virulence signatures canine enterococci. Twenty were randomly allocated one two groups (treatment group-TG application, or control group-CG without treatment) submitted plaque...
Groove pancreatitis is a rare form of segmental chronic pancreatitis. It involves the anatomic space between head pancreas, duodenum and common bile duct. was first described in early 1970s, but it remains largely unfamiliar to most physicians. Radiological diagnosis can be challenging, as often difficult differentiate from other entities. The differential pancreatic carcinoma may recognition subtle differences these two entities extremely important management differs significantly. managed...
Purpose The main objective of this study is to characterize and analyze modified peptides in DBS samples. This includes deciphering their specific PTMs understanding potential impact on the population or disease cohort under study. Experimental Design Using mass spectrometry‐based proteomic approaches, we performed a comprehensive analysis Our focus was identification quantification peptides. We also took advantage recent advances spectrometry ensure accurate detection quantification....
Resumo Fundamento: Pouco se sabe sobre o impacto da estenose aórtica (EA) grave na rigidez e ocorre alguma alteração após a remoção barreira de EA com cirurgia substituição válvula (SVA). Objetivo: Estimar as mudanças velocidade onda pulso carotídeo-femoral (VOP) SVA definir os preditores VOP alta em pacientes grave. Métodos: Estudo coorte retrospectivo unicêntrico, incluindo submetidos à [...]
Pressure overload-induced hypertrophy compromises cardiac stretch-induced compliance (SIC) after acute volume overload (AVO). We hypothesized that SIC could be enhanced by physiological induced pregnancy's chronic overload. This study evaluated SIC-cardiac adaptation in pregnant women with or without cardiovascular risk (CVR) factors. Thirty-seven (1st trimester, 1
Abstract Background and Aims A functioning vascular access (VA) is needed to ensure optimal dialysis. Reduced or falling levels of VA flow volume (Qa) indicate dysfunction predict thrombosis. Qa can be measured by a number different techniques, most all using dilution techniques such as ultrasound measure the amount recirculation induced reversal blood lines. The NephroFlow™ hemodialysis monitor estimates velocity measurements flowing their with 0.9% NaCl. Nikisso DBB-EXATM dialysis machine...
Abstract Introduction Cardiac amyloidosis due to transthyretin deposition (ATTR-CM) is often underdiagnosed. An increased left ventricular wall thickness (LVWT) should raise the suspicion for ATTR-CM, but it a very frequent and non-specific finding. In order improve diagnostic certainty, an echocardiographic score (Increased Wall Thickness [IWT] score) was recently proposed. The aim of our study assess performance IWT in independent population with LVWT. Methods We conducted retrospective...
Abstract Introduction Cardiovascular healthcare for women tends to be influenced by various factors. This patient group is generally associated with a worse prognosis following coronary artery bypass surgery (CABG). Aims To assess the impact of gender on long-term survival after CABG and potential effect age this association; compare these patients expected general national population, immediate postoperative outcomes between genders. Methods Longitudinal, retrospective, single center study,...
