Obesity remains a complex global health issue, necessitating multifaceted treatment approaches. Injectable pharmacotherapies have emerged as effective strategies to manage obesity by targeting metabolic pathways that regulate appetite, energy expenditure, and fat distribution. This review explores the mechanisms, clinical efficacy, safety profiles of key injectable agents, including GLP-1 GIP receptor agonists, pancreatic lipase inhibitors, lipolytic compounds. Additionally, it highlights...

La atresia biliar (AB) es una condición grave, idiopática y progresiva, con incidencia mundial de 1 por cada 8,000 a 15,000 nacidos vivos, siendo más común en países asiáticos. enfermedad provoca hiperbilirrubinemia, heces acólicas, orina oscura, además hepatomegalia esplenomegalia, y, si no tratada, puede llevar la muerte los primeros años vida. El tratamiento quirúrgico, se llama portoenterostomía Kasai (KPE), fundamental para intentar restablecer el flujo hacia intestino. artículo tiene...
Post-intubation tracheal stenosis (PITS) continues to be challenging in terms of diagnosis, management and prevention. Recurrence is common because excessive granulation tissue formation an insidious process scar contracture. Topical application mitomycin-C (MMC) as adjuvant treatment for endoscopic has shown good results. The authors aimed evaluate the results MMC topical following bronchoscopic dilatation PITS treatment.Retrospectively selected patients with who had rigid bronchoscopy (RB)...
Height is one of the variables used to derive reference values for respiratory function but it not always available. To fulfil this need, different formulas are described in literature.To understand which method best estimate height order obtain Forced Vital Capacity (FVC) and Expiratory Volume 1st second (FEV1) values.The true stature (TS) five alternative anthropometric measures that [arm span using a regression equation (ASR), arm fix correction factor (ASF), half span, knee ulnar length]...
The diagnosis and severity assessment of COPD relies on spirometry, in particular the FEV1. However, it has been proposed that hyperinflation air-trapping are better predictors exercise capacity mortality than FEV1.QUESTION: Does static predict capacity?We conducted an observational prospective study. Patients with referred to lung function laboratory were consecutively recruited. (the experimental group) compared patients without control group). sample sizes determined assuming effect size...

Abstract Background Dengue virus (DENV), responsible for a prevalent arthropod-borne viral illness, poses substantial public health challenge worldwide. Clinically, DENV's manifestation often resembles that of other arboviruses, resulting in frequent healthcare visits and complicating the early diagnosis, which is critical patient management. While isolation viable method, RT-qPCR assays yield significantly quicker results. Rapid immunochromatographic tests are available; yet, not only...
The study investigated the lack of specific legislation against ticket scalping, a practice where event tickets are resold at prices above their original value, commonly seen musical and cultural events in Brazil. While scalping sports is penalized under General Sports Law Statute Fan, there no direct covering events, creating significant legal gap. research revealed that although No. 1.521/51 penalizes speculative practices general, provision for abusive resale concerts events. also...

Background: COPD is characterized by symptoms of breathlessness and reduced exercise capacity.Functional characterization has relied in spirometry forced expiratory volume the 1st second (FEV1) for past years although it widely known that this insufficient a bad predictor capacity quality life (QOL), two corn stones adequate disease understanding its impact patients` daily life.Hyperinflation air-trapping have been suggested as better markers than FEV1 even mortality predictors.Aim:...
