Knowledge regarding the risks associated with Zika virus (ZIKV) infections in pregnancy has relied on individual studies relatively small sample sizes and variable risk estimates of adverse outcomes, or surveillance routinely collected data. Using data from Brazilian Cohorts Consortium, this study aims, to estimate outcomes among offspring women RT-PCR-confirmed ZIKV infection during explore heterogeneity between studies.We performed an participant meta-analysis 1548 pregnant 13 studies,...
Maternal Toxoplasma gondii (T. gondii) infection can lead to spontaneous abortion, fetal malformation, and numerous sequelae in the newborn, including visual hearing impairment. T. serology was determined pregnant women their newborns who were referred Climério de Oliveira Maternity, Federal University of Bahia, possible associations with risk factors for maternal investigated. This cross-sectional study conducted from January December 2014 included 712 women, aged 15 49 years, 235 newborns....
To identify newborns with congenital Zika infection (CZI) at a maternity hospital in Salvador, Brazil, during the 2016 microcephaly outbreak.A prospective study enrolled microcephalic and normocephalic suspected CZI between January December 2016. Serology (immunoglobulins IgM IgG) quantitative reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) for virus were performed. Demographic clinical characteristics of without compared.Of 151 enrolled, 32 (21.2%) classified as microcephalic. The...
Salvador was one of the Brazilian cities most affected during 2015 Zika virus (ZIKV) outbreak.A cross-sectional study performed with enrolment parturients and their newborns.Positive IgM antibodies for ZIKV, dengue (DENV) Chikungunya (CHIKV) were present in 6.9, 11.9 22.8% parturients, IgG detected 72.3, 92.3 38.6%, respectively. No cases DENV congenital infection identified. ZIKV CHIKV infections observed 16.5 13% newborns, respectively.High exposure rates to three arboviruses...
Objectives: This study evaluated the performance of recombinant receptor binding domain (RBD) protein-based enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (RBD-ELISAs) for detecting anti-SARS-CoV-2 IgG and IgM antibodies. Methods: In this study, 705 sera from SARS-CoV-2-infected individuals 315 healthy were analyzed. Results: The RBD-ELISA exhibited high specificity (99.1%) moderate sensitivity (48.0%), with an overall diagnostic accuracy 73.5%. demonstrated at 94.6% 51.1%, 72.8%. Both displayed...
Currently there is an increase in psychiatric, chronic-degenerative diseases, which surrounded by little visibility and taboos that flood society.

A insuficiência cardíaca é uma condição crônica caracterizada pela incapacidade do coração de bombear sangue forma adequada, resultando em sintomas debilitantes e alta morbimortalidade. Este estudo revisa os avanços recentes no tratamento da cardíaca, com foco papel dos inibidores SGLT2, originalmente desenvolvidos para o manejo diabetes tipo 2, mas que têm demonstrado benefícios significativos na redução mortalidade hospitalizações pacientes cardíaca. metodologia baseia-se revisão narrativa...
COVID-19 laboratory diagnosis primarily relies on molecular tests, highly sensitive during early infection stages with high viral loads. As the disease progresses, sensitivity decreases, requiring antibody detection. Since beginning of pandemic, serological tests have been developed and made available in Brazil, but their diagnostic performance varies. This study evaluated IBMP ELISA IgA/IgM/IgG kit detecting SARS-CoV-2 antibodies. A total 90 samples, including 64 from patients 26...
A transmissão vertical da sífilis se mantém como um grande desafio para a saúde pública, demandando novas estratégias de vigilância epidemiológica. Apesar as medidas controle materna e congênita estarem disponíveis no Brasil, existem dificuldades rede em prover o diagnóstico laboratorial infecção durante pré-natal. O conhecimento prevalência doença funciona importante indicador qualidade assistência pré-natal, fornecida pelo Sistema Único Saúde. presente trabalho visa identificar...
Background Adolescence and early adulthood are the most vulnerable period of life for exposure to traumatic experiences (70% their deaths due external causes). The Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) is characterized by dysfunctional symptoms that cause distress or social, academic occupational impairment, results from a stressor. There no consensus in literature about why some individuals experience PTSD after events not others. aim this multicentre study describe clinical...
