Abstract Background The Complete Blood Count (CBC) is a commonly used low-cost test that measures white blood cells, red and platelets in person’s blood. It useful tool to support medical decisions, as intrinsic variations of each analyte bring relevant insights regarding potential diseases. In this study, we aimed at developing machine learning models for COVID-19 diagnosis through CBCs, unlocking the predictive power non-linear relationships between multiple analytes. Methods We collected...

Small adjustments in levothyroxine (LT4) dose do not appear to provide clinical benefit despite changes thyrotropin (TSH) levels within the reference range. We hypothesize that accompanying serum total triiodothyronine (T3) reflect magnitude of TSH.This work aims characterize relationships free thyroxine (FT4) vs T3, FT4 TSH, and T3/FT4 ratio.This cross-sectional, observational study comprised 9850 participants aged 18 years older treated with LT4 from a large database January 1, 2009,...

In recent years the immunomodulatory actions of vitamin D, a steroid hormone, have been extensively studied. 2020, due to COVID-19 pandemic, question arose as 25(OH)D status would be related susceptibility SARS-CoV-2 infection, since several studies pointed out higher prevalence and severity disease in populations with low levels 25(OH)D. Thus, we investigated adults "Detected" positive for SARS CoV-2 by RT-PCR (reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction) test, negative controls, "not...

Abstract Context Treatment with levothyroxine (LT4) that normalize serum thyrotropin (TSH) is expected to restore lipid metabolism. Objective To assess statin utilization in LT4-treated patients through an observational drug study. Methods Three sites were involved: (1) 10 723 outpatients placed on LT4 during 2006-2019 identified from the Clinical Research Data Warehouse of University Chicago; (2) ~1.4 million prescriptions prepared by primary care physicians January-December 2018, IQVIA™...

As altas concentrações de material particulado inalável (PM10), nos grandes centros urbanos, são responsáveis por desencadearem problemas respiratórios, entre outros problemas. O controle dessas emissões não é trivial, pois existem diversos fatores que influenciam as tais partículas na atmosfera, caracterizando a descrição do fenômeno poluição como linear, sensível às condições iniciais e, portanto, caótico. objetivo deste trabalho avaliar presença caos em dados variação temporal...

A complexa dinâmica envolvida na poluição atmosférica promove a necessidade de metodologias análise que representem, com maior fidelidade, suas características físicas. Nas últimas décadas, diversas pesquisas demonstraram os efeitos nocivos dos contaminantes atmosféricos à saúde humana, fauna e flora, desta forma explicitando urgência do conhecimento das causas, padrões mecanismos deste fenômeno. Os métodos clássicos empregados para este fim, frequentemente, negligenciam as interações não...

Devido à complexa dinâmica apresentada pelos leitos fluidizados se faz necessário o desenvolvimento de novas técnicas análise sinais que representem, com maior fidelidade, as características reais destes processos, principalmente quando convencionais não são apropriadas para a caracterização regimes fluidização. É justamente neste cenário surge do caos determinístico como alternativa às metodologias clássicas empregadas. O presente trabalho objetiva aplicar teoria variação pressão,...

Background: first trimester glycemia ≥ 92 mg/dL is a valid criterion for diagnosis of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM), excluding the requirement Oral Glucose Tolerant Test (OGTT) later in pregnancy. Glycated Hemoglobin (A1C), well stablished mellitus, however its utility screening GDM not certain. The aim this study was to associate A1C and values Methods: an observational retrospective that included Brazilian women screened with until 20 weeks gestation between January 2009 March 2019....

Background: diagnostic criteria for gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) have been controversial. Although Oral Glucose Tolerant Test (OGTT) is generally proposed, it requires an extensive preparation, uncomfortable and lacks reproducibility. In contrast, Glycated Hemoglobin test (A1C) more convenient accurate, however, its use GDM diagnosis has not recommended yet. The aim of this study was to evaluate whether a first trimester A1C predicts abnormal second OGTT. Methods: This observational...
