2. Relationship between the number of comorbidities, quality of life, and cardiac autonomic modulation in patients with coronary disease: a cross-sectional study
SUMMARY OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to evaluate if there is a relationship between the number of comorbidities, autonomic modulation, and quality of life in patients diagnosed with coronary artery disease. METHODS: A cross-sectional study was conducted at an outpatient rehabilitation center in Presidente Prudente-SP, Brazil. A total of 27 particip

3. A Finite-Difference Time-Domain Formulation for Modeling Air Ionization Breakdown Streamers
Abstract A numerical model based on the finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) method is developed for calculating discharge currents and fields produced due air ionization between two electrodes. Electric conductivity σ of the ionized channel between two electrodes is calculated using non-linear equations, i.e., σ is obtained using functions of time. The fu

4. Inadequate emergence after anesthesia for elective cancer surgery: a single-center cohort study
Abstract Background: Inadequate emergence after anesthesia (IEA) is a common phenomenon in adult patients undergoing anesthesia. The aim of this study was to evaluate the incidence and determinants of IEA for elective cancer surgery, and to study its influence on the quality of recovery. Method: In this observational, prospective study, 148 patients schedu

5. Dysautonomia Evaluation by Holter in Chagas Heart Disease
Abstract Background Sudden cardiac death is the main lethal mechanism associated with Chagas cardiomyopathy. Studies suggest that dysautonomia may represent a relevant, intense, independent, and early phenomenon in the natural history of the disease, even when ventricular systolic function is preserved, and may also be the mechanism that triggers malignant

6. Autonomic dysfunction is common in liver cirrhosis and is associated with cardiac dysfunction and mortality: prospective observational study
ABSTRACT BACKGROUND: Although autonomic dysfunction has been shown to be associated with liver cirrhosis, the prevalence and prognostic implications are unclear. Abnormal heart rate variability (HRV), a measure of autonomic function, has not been well investigated in cirrhosis. OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the prevalence of high-risk HRV parameters in a cohort o

7. Double Product and Autonomic Function as Predictors of Quality of Life in Heart Transplant Recipients: A Cross-Sectional Study
ABSTRACT Introduction: Heart rate control by the autonomic nervous system (ANS) is impaired in heart transplant (HT) recipients, leading to increased resting heart rate, metabolic demand, and fatigue, which can impair their quality of life (QoL). In this study, we hypothesized the association of hemodynamics and autonomic function as predictors of QoL in HT

8. Design and Implementation of Microwave Dual-Band Pass Interdigital Filter Using an Analytical Approach
Abstract In this paper, benefiting from frequency transformation between the normalized frequency domain of low-pass prototype frequencies and the real frequency domain of the filter, a purely analytical procedure for dual-band filter design is used. The coupling matrix of the filter is analytically extracted, without the need to perform numerical optimizati

9. A Genetic Algorithm for Pointwise Source Reconstruction by the Method of Fundamental Solutions
ABSTRACT Inverse source reconstruction problems offer great potential for applications of interest to engineering, such as the identification of polluting sources, and to medicine, such as electroencephalography, to cite at least two relevant examples. From a mathematical point of view, the identification of a concentrated source (intensity and location) cor

10. Bullous pemphigoid and milia: prevalence and clinical laboratory findings in a Brazilian sample
Abstract Background: Bullous pemphigoid (BP) associated with milia lesions has been increasingly reported, but its prevalence has not been reported in a Brazilian BP population yet. Objectives: To describe the occurrence and clinical-laboratorial findings of BP-milia association in a southeastern Brazilian sample. Methods: A descriptive study based on the
