1. Bioactive SiO2-K2O-CaO-P2O5 glass-ceramic scaffold prepared using polyurethane foam template
Abstract A glass-ceramic in the SiO2-K2O-CaO-P2O5 quaternary system was prepared by substituting the Na2O component with K2O to avoid Na2Ca2Si3O9 formation upon thermal treatment since this phase decreases apatite formation kinetics on glass material. To form the glass-ceramic, a modified sol-gel method involving solution precipitation, followed by reagents

2. Renal volume of five-year-old preterm children are not different than full-term controls
Abstract Objective: In previous studies, smaller renal volumes were reported in prematurely born infants, however, these renal volumes were not corrected for body surface area, the main determinant of renal size. Given the rapid growth of the renal cortex after premature birth, the authors hypothesized that corrected volumes would not differ from healthy co

3. Comparison between pain intensity, functionality, central sensitization, and self-efficacy in individuals with unilateral or bilateral knee osteoarthritis: a cross-sectional study
SUMMARY OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to compare pain intensity, stiffness, functionality, central sensitization, and self-efficacy, between individuals with bilateral knee osteoarthritis and unilateral knee osteoarthritis. METHODS: We included sedentary participants with knee osteoarthritis. The diagnosis was defined by a specialist, in which there was a co

5. High uterosacral ligament hysteropexy for the management of pelvic organ prolapse
ABSTRACT Objective: To demonstrate our transvaginal high uterosacral ligament (HUL) hysteropexy technique as an alternative mesh-free uterine-preserving pelvic organ prolapse (POP) repair approach and present our institutional outcomes. Concurrent hysterectomy with POP repair is controversial as uterine-preserving techniques may beneficially allow fertility

6. Three-dimensional printing models of horseshoe kidney and duplicated pelvicalyceal collecting system for flexible ureteroscopy training: a pilot study
ABSTRACT Objective: To demonstrate our transvaginal high uterosacral ligament (HUL) hysteropexy technique as an alternative mesh-free uterine-preserving pelvic organ prolapse (POP) repair approach and present our institutional outcomes. Concurrent hysterectomy with POP repair is controversial as uterine-preserving techniques may beneficially allow fertility

7. Management of Acute Type A Aortic Dissection at a Public Cardiac Center in the Northeast Region of Brazil
Abstract Introduction: Aortic diseases are among the most serious cardiovascular diseases; the overall mortality rate due to diseases such as aneurysms and aortic dissections has been estimated at 2.78 per 100,000 persons in 2010, with a higher mortality rate in men than women. Our objective was to evaluate the epidemiological profile of patients with acute

8. Early Hemodynamic Profile after Aortic Valve Replacement - A Comparison between Three Mechanical Valves
Abstract Introduction: There are scarce data comparing different mechanical valves in the aortic position. The objective of this study was to compare the early hemodynamic changes after aortic valve replacement between ATS, Bicarbon, and On-X mechanical valves. Methods: We included 99 patients who underwent aortic valve replacement with mechanical valves b

9. Satisfaction with body weight among adolescents with excess weight: findings from a cross-sectional population-based study
ABSTRACT BACKGROUND: Individuals who are overweight or obese often underestimate their size, and they are less likely to consider their weight status to be a health problem and consequently to make lifestyle changes. OBJECTIVES: To estimate the proportion of satisfaction with weight among adolescents classified as overweight/obese, according to sociodemogr

10. Dietary Fat Intake and its Association with Adiposity and Inflammatory Markers in Individuals at Cardiometabolic Risk
Abstract Background Fatty acids are important components of diet that may influence the development of CVD. Objective To verify the relationship of dietary fatty acids with cardiometabolic markers in individuals at the cardiometabolic risk. Methods This cross-sectional study involved 282 subjects (116 M/166 F, 42 ± 16 years) attended the Cardiovascular H

11. Transition from open partial nephrectomy directly to robotic surgery: experience of a single surgeon to achieve “TRIFECTA”
ABSTRACT Introduction: Recent data suggest that robotic platform has become the most accessible minimal invasive surgery even for surgeons without previous training in laparoscopy. Laparoscopic partial nephrectomy (LPN) is a well-stablished procedure, however, with high level of complexity and long learning curve that limit its use. Objective: To describe

12. Decreased levels of interleukin 27 in the serum of vitiligo patients,
Abstract Background: Vitiligo is a common skin disorder in which melanocytes are destroyed by auto-reactive immune responses. The loss of melanocytes results in the appearance of depigmented areas in different parts of the body. Cytokines have remarkable roles in the pathogenesis of vitiligo, such as IL-1, IL-6, and TNF-α; interleukin 27 (IL-27) is a new m
