Abstract Background HLA haplotype analysis has been used in population genetics and the investigation of disease-susceptibility locus, due to its high polymorphism. Several methods for inferring genotypic data have proposed, but it is unclear how accurate each or which method superior. The accuracy two leading computational inference – Expectation-Maximization algorithm based (implemented Arlequin V3.0) Bayesian PHASE V2.1.1) was compared using a set 122 haplotypes (A-B-Cw-DQB1-DRB1)...
HLA class I diversity (loci A, B and C) was analysed in four populations, two from North Cameroon (Podokwo Uldeme) South (Ewondo Bamileke). Northern southern populations show a substantial genetic terms of haplotype sharing distances, even despite the low percentage variance due to differences among evidenced by analysis molecular variance. The signals differentiation are consistent with their linguistic affiliation, support previous evidence, based on autosomal microsatellites protein loci,...
To evaluate students' self-perceived pedagogical outcomes when using a digital scenario-based tool compared to traditional scenarios printed on paper.This study used within-subjects experiment.A platform for scenario development was developed, focusing patients' regaining independence and returning home after an acute event. Students participated in two simulation activities, differing only the type of completed questionnaire their learning experience.Students considered that new template...

Abstract We have studied the polymorphism of HLA class I in two West African Pygmy populations, namely, Bakola from Cameroon and Mbenzele Central Republic. A unique number alleles haplotypes showed specific patterns these populations. In this study, we identify (B*37, B*41) three (A*30‐B*37, A*66‐B*41 A*68‐B*58) that appear to be ‘private’ or typical Western Pygmies. These data reflect similarities with AKA Pygmies On other hand, failed are found at high frequencies among sub‐Saharan...
<title>Abstract</title> Objectives This study aimed to develop a multidimensional assessment instrument focused on bodily processes that influence self-care and validate an in long-term care (BIP@self-care). Methods: A methodological was conducted with 149 elderly people functional impairment activities. Generalised Linear Models cluster analysis were used analyse the data. Results: Balance muscular strength crucial factors recovery of autonomy. Sitting balance, dynamic lower limb muscle...
Introduction Bariatric surgery is a relatively safe surgical procedure with high success rates. The improvement on patient’s self-esteem and overall quality of life are expected benefits that extend beyond physical health. Nonetheless, current literature describes higher risk developing alcohol use disorder (AUD) in patients undergoing bariatric not better explained by differences baseline characteristics such as socioeconomic factors. This reinforces the need to optimize mental health...
Enquadramento: desde o aparecimento da COVID-19 os enfermeiros de família desempenharam um papel central no apoio às famílias. Mas, neste âmbito, a nível das publicações desconhece-se as suas temáticas. Objetivos: identificar e analisar relacionadas com enfermagem durante do SARS-Cov2 instalação pandemia. Metodologia: revisão integrativa, realizada na biblioteca virtual Saúde, Pubmed, Ebsco, Scielo, Lilacs, IBESC Google Scholar. Incluiu literatura teórica empírica, divulgada entre janeiro...
