Mesenchymal stem/stromal cells (MSCs) are promising tools in cell therapy. They secrete extracellular vesicles (EVs) that carry different classes of molecules can promote skin repair, but the mechanisms poorly understood. Skin wound healing is a complex process requires activity several signaling pathways and types, including keratinocytes fibroblasts. In this study, we explored whether adipose tissue MSC-derived EVs could accelerate migration proliferation fibroblasts, activate AKT pathway,...
Few publications have compared ultrasound (US) to histology in diagnosing schistosomiasis-induced liver fibrosis (LF); none has used magnetic resonance (MR). The aim of this study was evaluate schistosomal LF using these three methods. Fourteen patients with hepatosplenic schistosomiasis admitted hospital for surgical treatment variceal bleeding were investigated. They submitted upper digestive endoscopy, US, MR and wedge biopsy. World Health Organization protocol US used. Hepatic classified...

Schistosomiasis is a major cause of portal hypertension worldwide. It associates with fibrosis that develops during chronic infection. The mechanisms by which the pathogen evokes these host responses remain unclear. We evaluated hypothesis schistosome eggs release factors directly stimulate liver cells to produce osteopontin (OPN), pro-fibrogenic protein stimulates hepatic stellate become myofibroblasts. also investigated utility OPN as biomarker and/or severity hypertension. Cultured...
Objective: We sought to characterize the association between prolonged county-level poverty with postoperative outcomes. Summary Background Data: The impact of long-standing on surgical outcomes remains ill-defined. Methods: Patients who underwent lung resection, colectomy, coronary artery bypass graft (CABG), or lower extremity joint replacement (LEJR) were identified from Medicare Standard Analytical Files Database (2015-2017) and merged data American Community Survey United States...
Objective The spleen is an organ of the defense system with important roles in filtering functions, phagocytosis, and immunoglobulin production. Septic phenomena are severe complications that may occur after total splenectomy. To avoid these adverse effects, preservation indicated. However, presence damage, lesions splenic pedicle, or both, complete removal has been considered unavoidable. Methods present paper presents upper pole supplied by splenogastric vessels six patients injuries its...
ABSTRACT Objective To investigate the prevalence and factors associated with mouth breathing among patients developmental disabilities of a dental service. Methods We analyzed 408 records. Mouth was reported by patients’ parents from direct observation. Other variables were as follows: history asthma, bronchitis, palate shape, pacifier use, thumb sucking, nail biting, use medications, gastroesophageal reflux, bruxism, gender, age, diagnosis patient. Statistical analysis included...
