1. Prevalence and functional status of children with complex chronic conditions in Brazilian PICUs during the COVID-19 pandemic
Abstract Objective The proportion of children with complex chronic conditions is increasing in PICUs around the world. We determined the prevalence and functional status of children with complex chronic conditions in Brazilian PICUs during the COVID-19 pandemic. Methods The authors conducted a point prevalence cross-sectional study among fifteen Brazilian

2. REPLY TO “LINGUISTIC MEANINGS MEET LINGUISTIC FORM”
Abstract Infiltration of a word’s meaning by world-knowledge is argued to be consistent with the semiological principle. While acknowledging variability in what people know about elephants, there is a common core of what everybody knows that we know we can evoke in anybody’s mind; this constitutes the meaning of the word “elephant”. Regarding truth-c

3. Convalescent plasma therapy - a silver lining for COVID-19 management?
ABSTRACT The COVID-19 pandemic has pushed the world towards social, economic, and medical challenges. Scientific research in medicine is the only means to overcome novel and complex diseases like COVID-19. To sum up the therapeutic wild-goose chase, many available antivirals and repurposed drugs have failed to show successful clinical evidence in patient rec

4. DEATH GAMES AND THE PERSISTENCE OF MEMORY: J. G. BALLARD’S WORLD WAR II FICTIONS
Abstract This article is a discussion of J. G. Ballard’s (semi-)autobiographical war narratives, with a focus on the different textual strategies and processes of signification Ballard employs from his avant-garde novel The Atrocity Exhibition (1970) to the feverish fictional account of his time in World War II China in “The Dead Time” (1977) and Empir

5. INSECTICIDAL AND FUNGICIDAL ACTIVITY OF A MAGNESIUM COMPOUND CONTAINING ISOVANILLIC ACID AGAINST LEAF-CUTTING ANT AND ITS SYMBIOTIC FUNGUS
Pesticides offer a simple, cost-effective solution to ensure food supplies for a growing world population. However, their environmental performance needs improvement if pesticides are to continue contributing importantly. This study explores the insecticidal potential of a magnesium (II) metal complex containing 1,10-phenanthroline and isovanillic acid (MgPh

6. Robotics in Pediatric Urology
ABSTRACT Robotic surgery has been slow to be fully accepted in the world of pediatric urology largely because of its initial application directed towards adult use and because of the inherent high cost associated with it. However, as previously shown, it has now become the gold standard for adolescent pyeloplasty in The United States. As the adoption of robo

7. Mobile genetic elements associated with carbapenemase genes in South American Enterobacterales
ABSTRACT Introduction: Carbapenem resistance in members of order Enterobacterales is a growing public health problem causing high mortality in developing and industrialized countries. Its emergence and rapid propagation worldwide was due to both intercontinental spread of pandemic strains and horizontal dissemination via mobile genetic elements (MGE) such a

8. Theoretical and Experimental Investigations on Inclusion Complex β-Cyclodextrin and Sulcatone: A Cardiovascular Activity Evaluation
In this paper, we have applied state-of-the-art technologies and new investigations were developed focusing on obtaining simple and inexpensive molecules for treating cardiovascular diseases, as they are considered the leading cause of death in the world. For the first time, the inclusion complex of sulcatone (SU) and β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) was achieved (us

9. Analysis of filaggrin 2 gene polymorphisms in patients with atopic dermatitis,
Abstract Background: Polymorphisms of the filaggrin 2 gene (rs 12568784 and rs 16899374) are associated with persistent atopic dermatitis in African American patients. Filaggrin 2 is a protein with a function similar to filaggrin and also encoded in the epidermal differentiation complex on chromosome 1q21. Objective: To evaluate the polymorphisms in the fi

11. Dimensionalidade fractal e invariância de escala em circuitos elétricos AC e linhas de transmissão
Resumo A geometria fractal fascina pela capacidade de descrever formas geométricas complexas e que usualmente estão presentes no mundo real . A dimensão fractal ou de Hausdorff d é utilizada para descrever leis de invariância de escala, em que as funções autossimilares seguem uma lei da forma f ( s x ) = s d f ( x ), sendo s o fator de escala.

12. Interfaces entre saúde coletiva e bioética: a nanotecnologia como objeto-modelo
Resumo Este artigo trata das interfaces entre bioética e saúde coletiva, que têm como principal denominador comum a conflituosidade que afeta a garantia da saúde como direito em meio cultural plural. Como campos interdisciplinares, tanto bioética quanto saúde coletiva são aqui entendidas como empreendimentos científicos e práticos situados em seu te
