25. Finite strip method computer application for buckling analysis of thin-walled structures with arbitrary cross-sections
Abstract The Direct Strength Method (DSM) is a well-known formulation presented in the Brazilian standard ABNT NBR 14762:2010, that estimates the strength capacity of cold-formed steel (CFS) members. However, this formulation requires the elastic critical buckling loads as point of departure, regarding local (L), distortional (D) and global (G) modes, which

26. Dermoscopy of the iris: identification of Lisch nodules and contribution to the diagnosis of neurofibromatosis type 1
Abstract Neurofibromatosis is a common genodermatosis, whose diagnosis often involves the participation of a dermatologist. A case of a 38-year-old female patient with four café-au-lait macules and eleven neurofibromas on clinical examination is presented. Dermoscopy allowed the identification of Lisch nodules in the iris, bilaterally. The combination of th

27. Dynamic anisotropy and non-linear geostatistics supporting short term modelling of structurally complex gold mineralization
Abstract Non-linear geostatistical methods are known to deal appropriately with the geological and geometrical complexity of gold deposits. This article reports the results related to an investigation to improve the gold content estimate based on restricted ore modeling to honor the structural aspects that control the mineralization. The grade domains are de

28. Conversion of vesicostomy into continent catheterizable reservoirs in myelomeningocele
ABSTRACT Introduction: Vesicostomy should be considered in children with neuropathic bladder in case first-line therapies fail. This simple and reversible procedure can reduce febrile urinary tract infections and protect the upper urinary tract (1) until more definitive alternatives can be proposed. We describe in this video how we approach patients that un

29. Diagnosis of cutaneous tuberculosis (lymph node scrofuloderma) using the Xpert MTB/RIF® method,
Abstract Cutaneous tuberculosis is a rare infection that is difficult to diagnose, because it shows less sensitivity and specificity in classic complementary exams when compared with the pulmonary form. The Xpert MTB/RIF® method offers an early diagnosis that identifies the DNA of Mycobacterium tuberculosis and the main mutations that give the bacterium res

30. Digital dermoscopy: a complementary method in the diagnosis of scabies,
Abstract Scabies is an ectoparasitosis caused by Sarcoptes scabiei var. hominis, characterized clinically by pruritic lesions in typical locations; the crusted form is a rare manifestation. The diagnosis is usually established based on the clinical picture, but dermoscopy can be an important complementary method, as it allows the observation of a brownish tr

31. Antifungal Efficacy of Amphotericin B in Candida Albicans Endocarditis Therapy: Systematic Review
Abstract Introduction: Although it is the most common agent among the fungal causes of endocarditis, Candida albicans endocarditis is rare. Objective: To evaluate the efficacy of amphotericin B in the treatment of C. albicans endocarditis beyond a systematic review. Data search: Articles in English, Spanish and Portuguese, conducted in the following datab

32. Gasparyan Method of Total Autologous Reconstruction of the Aortic Valve
Abstract In this case report, I describe a new technique for total reconstruction of the aortic valve with autologous pericardium. The parameters of the cusps were calculated using very simple formulas after measurement of the aortic root intercommissural distances. Glutaraldehyde-treated pericardium was trimmed along the marked line, leaving 2 mm of tissue

33. Absolute Configuration of (−)-Cubebin, a Classical Lignan with Pharmacological Potential, Defined by Means of Chiroptical Spectroscopy
This work describes the first determination of the absolute configuration (AC) of (−)-cubebin by means of electronic circular dichroism (ECD), supported by quantum chemical calculations. The comparison of experimental ECD with the corresponding quantum chemical prediction for the proper diastereoisomer resulted in the definitive assignment of the AC of the

34. Proposal of a method for service life prediction of a concrete structure: a case study
Abstract This article presents a method for service life prediction of concrete structures. The proposed method aims to estimate the performance of a concrete structure through its permeability to carbon dioxide penetration, in order to verify its accordance to Brazilian standards. This case study is based on an inspection made in an educational building in

35. Does Enoxaparin treatment have any effects on the placenta in women with unexplained histories of habitual abortion? A case control study
ABSTRACT BACKGROUND: It is very common to offer low molecular weight heparin (LMWH) medications to women with unexplained habitual abortion, to increase the livebirth rate. Although no benefit from LMWH has been clearly demonstrated, examination of the effects of enoxaparin on placental structure is lacking. OBJECTIVE: To assess placental structural chan
