The natural transmission cycle of Yellow Fever (YF) involves tree hole breeding mosquitoes and a wide array of nonhuman primates (NHP), including monkeys and apes. Some Neotropical monkeys (howler mon…
BACKGROUND: The remuneration system of General Practitioners (GPs) has changed in several countries in the past decade. The aim of our study was: to establish the effect of these changes on the revenu…
We have developed a polysomnographic database on CD-ROM. The data were obtained from 16 subjects with sleep apnea syndrome. The physiological signals include electroencephalogram, electromyogram, elec…
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Brain machine interface (BMI) is a system which communicates the brain with the external machines. In general, an electroencephalograph (EEG) machine has to be used to monito…
This retrospective analysis and report describes the successful eradication and posteradication surveillance programme for Johne's disease (Mycobacterium avium subspecies paratuberculosis (MAP)) in a …
An attempt was made to use electric stimulation of antigravity muscles of hind limbs of rats exposed to a 15 and 30 day hypokinesia as a method for preventing structural and metabolic disorders that d…
Both methylation and brain volume patterns hold important biological information for the development and prognosis of schizophrenia (SZ). A combined study to probe the association between them provide…
The impact of basic military training (BMT) on recruit physical performance is well described. However, initial employment training (IET), the period immediately after BMT, is the final preparatory st…
Early screening for hearing impairment in children is generally advised to prevent sensory deprivation and speech, language and learning problems. In the present study, the age at which 176 probably c…
Although yellow fever (YF) has not been reported on the eastern coast of Brazil since 1942, there was a reemergence of dengue fever in Brazil in 1987 due to the reintroduction of Aedes aegypti (L.). T…
The ontogeny and estrous cycle-dependent variation of insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) gene expression was analyzed in the rat uterus. RNA extracted from rat uteri contained transcripts with estim…
Early markers of neurological outcome in the absence of overt brain damage are scarce in extreme prematurity. The aim of this study was to compare spectral EEG values of infants born near term with th…
BACKGROUND: All currently available antipsychotic medications bind to both the dopamine-2 (D2) and dopamine-3 (D3) receptors in vitro. However, there is conflicting evidence from in vivo studies about…
Detection of acute intracranial hemorrhage (ICH) is important for diagnosis and treatment of traumatic brain injury, stroke, postoperative bleeding, and other head and neck injuries. This paper detail…
BACKGROUND: Associations between early mother-child mutually responsive orientation (MRO) and children's conscience have been previously established, but the mechanisms accounting for those links are …
Genetic analyses of dwarfing phenotypes resulting from targeted mutagenesis of the genes encoding the insulin-like growth factors (IGF-I and IGF-II) and their cognate type 1 IGF receptor (IGF1R) have …
A new technique for suturing human tissue is described in which tissue closure is achieved by means of small fixators made from shape memory alloy. The aim of the development is to provide an alternat…
This article reports the experience of the design team of the Laboratory The Imaginary in the process of developing an electric potter's lathe which respects the biomechanics of the body, helps to dev…
This study compared the effects of 2 different high-intensity interval training (HIIT) programs in professional male canoe polo athletes. Responses of peak oxygen uptake (VO2peak), ventilatory thresho…
The combination of medical imaging with computational fluid dynamics (CFD) has enabled the study of 3-D blood flow on a patient-specific level. However, with models based on gated high-resolution data…
