Sporotrichosis is a sporadic and rare mycotic infection in most of the developed world. In many parts developing world, sporotrichosis much more commonly recognized, but epidemiological data are generally lacking from these regions. We report epidemiological, clinical, treatment 238 cases culture-proven occurring relatively remote area south central highlands Peru that were retrospectively collected during 1995–1997. Most (60%) occurred children aged ≤14 years, affected anatomic site was...
Objective To assess the accuracy of sweat conductivity among newborns and very young infants. Design Prospective, population-based, diagnostic test study. Setting Public Statewide Newborn Screening Programme where incidence rate cystic fibrosis (CF) is ≈1:11 000. Patients Newborns infants with positive two-tiered immunoreactive trypsinogen. Interventions Sweat chloride were performed simultaneously, on same day facility by independent technicians, cut-off values 80 mmol/L 60 mmol/L,...
Pesticides constitute a category of chemical products intended specifically for the control and mitigation pests. With their constant increase in use, risk to human health environment has increased proportionally due occupational environmental exposure these compounds. The use chemicals is associated with several toxic effects related acute chronic toxicity, such as infertility, hormonal disorders cancer. present work aimed study metabolic profile individuals occupationally exposed...
Objective The prevalence of biotinidase deficiency and the frequency gene variants in Brazil are not documented. We aimed to determine incidence partial profound state Minas Gerais, Brazil, calculate newborn screening program Gerais. Methods Neonates (1,168,385) were screened from May 2013 June 2018. Those detected with abnormal activity based on semi-quantitative assays underwent confirmatory serum tests. was sequenced all confirmed cases. Results combined estimated at 1:13,909 live births...
The aim of the present study was to determine 2,5-hexanedione (2,5-HD), a metabolite n-hexane, by gas chromatography/flame ionization detection in 31 workers exposed n-hexane after two types sample pretreatment, i.e., with (total 2,5-HD) and without (free acid hydrolysis. mean urinary 2,5-HD 0.52 mg/L (free) 2.88 (total), this difference being significant (Student t-test, p < 0.05). differences results according treatment support need modify current Brazilian legislation, which proposes...
Abstract Quantitative analysis of amino acids in blood and urine is primarily indicated for the diagnosis acid disorders. The high‐performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) technique frequently used this detection. frequency sample collection on filter paper has been increasing exponentially, there are many advantages attributed to processing biological samples way. aim study was validate a quantitative by HPLC collected establish reference values neonatal period. Dried dried respectively 58...
En este documento, se desarrolla un modelo de sombreado para sistemasde generación solar fotovoltaica emplazados en dos entornos, uno rural, ubicadoen la sabana cundiboyacense y otro dentro del con-urbano capital colombiana.Ambos sistemas consideran una carga eléctrica típica hogar promedio. A partirde esta estimación dimensionan los componentes sistema fotovoltaico.En ocasión no bancos baterías. El sobrelos paneles realiza por medio SAM, insertando objetos altura considerable enambos...
To the Editor, Sweat conductivity (SC) is a well-established screening test for Cystic Fibrosis (CF).1,2 It semi-automated, fast, doesn’t require skilled technicians or specialized personnel, and needs small amount of sweat. Moreover, one response to demanding labour-intensive requirement robust quality sweat testing has been samples by electrical conductivity.3As every laboratory method, SC subject error. Then, it should be assessed tested ensure that produces results which make reliable...
Background: Sweat conductivity (SC) is a semi-automated method widely used as screening test for Cystic Fibrosis. Quantity not sufficient (QNS) defined when collecting volume lower than 15 μl of sweat during 30 minutes. Objective: To verify the rate and factors related to QNS SC in newborns young infants. Methods: Newborns infants aged less three months that had undergone after two abnormal immunoreactive trypsinogen results, were recruited prospectively consecutively. Statistical analysis...
