O artigo pretende reavaliar a importância dos Controles Internos da Administração Pública a partir de uma interpretação dada pela Teoria de Agência. O texto argumenta que os Controles Internos, definidos como os c...

IntroductionVirtual control groups (VCGs) are proposed as a means to reduce reliance on live animals in preclinical toxicology studies. Despite the potential benefits of VCGs, concerns remain regarding their comparabilit...

Introduction: Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome (PFPS) is one of the most common causes of anterior knee pain, yet its radiographic diagnostic indicators remain poorly defined. Aim: To evaluate morphometric parameters, inc...

Abstract Vitamin D deficiency has been associated with a range of neurological and allergic conditions. Whether such an association exists in multiple chemical sensitivity (MCS) has not been clarified. This study aimed t...

PURPOSE: The study compared Resting Heart Rate Variability (HRV) in elderly women practicing Tai Chi Chuan (TCC) versus non-exercising controls to evaluate its impact on heart autonomic modulation. METHODOLOGY: Twenty el...

Understanding how socioeconomic development modulates trait–environment linkages in the Anthropocene, particularly its mechanistic role in reshaping the relative importance of climate versus soil drivers, remains poorl...

Abstract Background Temperate phages play a central role in the evolution and pathogenicity of Staphylococcus aureus. Sa3int phages provide highly human-specific virulence factors that promote immune evasion and survival...

PURPOSE: The study compared Resting Heart Rate Variability (HRV) in elderly women practicing Tai Chi Chuan (TCC) versus non-exercising controls to evaluate its impact on heart autonomic modulation. METHODOLOGY: Twenty el...

Lipid A in the cell wall of  Salmonella typhi and pseudomonas aeruginosa  were extracted and analyzed by the GC/MS technique. Three concentrations were prepared (50, 100, 200) mg/100g of body weight. The sample...

Introduction and Aims: Mandibular movement is a complex physiological process essential for orofacial function. Patients with disc displacement without reduction (DDWoR) exhibit significant kinematic impairments, which a...

Objective: To describe the Amyloid, Tau, Neurodegeneration (A/T/N) research framework classification in the Argentine-Alzheimer Neuroimaging Initiative (ADNI) cohort. Methods: 23 Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI), 12 Alzhe...

Objective: Prevalence of Toxoplasmosis which was increased in immune compromised patients were investigated in patients with chronic renal failure undergoing hemodialysis in Van region Method: Toxoplasma gondii (T. gon...

IntroductionLipedema, a painful disease that almost exclusively affects women, leads to an excessive accumulation of subcutaneous adipose tissue, primarily in the extremities. Morphologically, it is characterized by hype...

Abstract Background Acute hemolytic transfusion reactions because of dog erythrocyte antigen (DEA) 1 sensitization after mismatched transfusions are serious complications. Dog erythrocyte antigen 1 expression varies from...

Abstract Background Identification of disease-associated spectral alterations of oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) and oral potentially malignant disorders (OPMD) is critical to improving patient outcomes. Protein stru...

Abstract Background The genetic architecture of circulating amino acids (AAs) and microbiota-related metabolites (MRMs) in relation to cardiometabolic disease remains poorly characterized in East Asian populations, limit...

IntroductionFamilial partial lipodystrophy (FPL) is a rare condition related to partial deficiency of adipose tissue and consequent insulin resistance resulting in metabolic alterations. Although type 2 diabetes mellitus...

Abstract Rhipicephalus microplus is an ectoparasite responsible for causing economic losses in livestock farming totalling approximately $3.24 billion dollars per year. The main control method involves the use of chemica...

ABSTRACT Background and Aims Limited evidence suggests autoimmune thyroiditis (AT) could represent a risk factor for cervical artery dissection (CeAD). We tested the hypothesis of a positive association between AT and Ce...

ABSTRACT Background and Objectives Systemic inflammation indices derived from complete blood counts (CBC) are accessible markers of inflammatory burden, but their relationship with circulating cytokines in psoriasis rema...

Abstract Introduction This study investigated the association between resilience and posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) among Brazilian victims of urban violence. It also compared defense mechanisms, parental bonding,...

Abstract Background Studies have shown that autophagy was closely involved in host defense against mycobacteria, and genetic variations in autophagy genes were related to susceptibility to multiple diseases. We conducted...

Background: The relationship between vitamin D receptor gene variations and other risk factors in pulmonary tuberculosis remains unclear, largely due to the complex interplay of genetic and environmental factors. The pur...

AIM: White coat hypertension has been described as continuously higher clinical blood pressure levels than day-time blood pressure levels. It has been known that the increased clinic blood pressure measurement in patient...
