1. Hereditary hemochromatosis beyond hyperferritinemia: Clinical and laboratory investigation of the patient’s profile submitted to phlebotomy in two reference centers in southern Brazil
Abstract Hereditary Hemochromatosis is a disorder characterized by iron deposition in several organs and hyperferritinemia. The most studied variants are linked to the HFE gene. In Brazil, surveys that characterize this population are scarce, with no sampling in the state of Rio Grande do Sul. Our objective is to carry out a data collection focusing on the p

2. Possible Effects of Oriented Magnetic Fields on Human Blood Pressure
Abstract Background: There have been scattered reports indicating the possibility that applied magnetic fields can lower human blood viscosity, which has been considered as encouraging for decreasing blood pressure as a result of greater fluidity. Additional motivation comes from partial studies in animals showing some response of vascular variables to magn

3. A narrative review on invasive brain stimulation for treatment-resistant depression
While most patients with depression respond to pharmacotherapy and psychotherapy, about one-third will present treatment resistance to these interventions. For patients with treatment-resistant depression (TRD), invasive neurostimulation therapies such as vagus nerve stimulation, deep brain stimulation, and epidural cortical stimulation may be considered. We

4. A novel upper tract ureteroscopic biopsy technique: the “form tackle”
ABSTRACT Introduction and Objective: Upper tract urothelial carcinoma (UTUC) represents 5% of all urothelial malignancies (1–3). Accurate pathologic diagnosis is key and may direct treatment decisions. Current ureteroscopic biopsy techniques include cold-cup, backloaded cold-cup and stone basket (4–6). The study objective was to compare a standard cold-

5. Orchio-Septopexy: A new technique to cover and fix detorsed testis undergoing fasciotomy of tunica albuginea
ABSTRACT Purpose Compartment Syndrome (CS) has been recognized as a potential factor that worsens testicular viability after detorsion, especially in borderline cases of prolonged ischemia. Fasciotomy of the testicular tunica albuginea to relieve the pressure associated with CS has been proposed to accommodate edema after detorsion, embracing the raw fasci

6. Available evidence on HIFU for focal treatment of prostate cancer: a systematic review
ABSTRACT Purpose: Prostate cancer (PCa) is the second most common oncologic disease among men. Radical treatment with curative intent provides good oncological results for PCa survivors, although definitive therapy is associated with significant number of serious side-effects. In modern-era of medicine tissue-sparing techniques, such as focal HIFU, have bee

7. Discussion of the Brazilian neurologists about sudden unexpected death in epilepsy
SUMMARY OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to evaluate the concept of health professionals affiliated with the Brazilian League of Epilepsy on whether or not to inform patients about the risk factors related to the occurrence of sudden unexpected death in epilepsy. METHODS: A descriptive research of inquiry was conducted with direct survey on the Brazilian neurol

8. N-acetylcysteine for managing neurotic excoriation: encouraging results in two patients
Abstract Sporotrichosis is a subcutaneous mycosis that affects humans and animals, with a typically subacute or chronic evolution, caused by Sporothrix spp., a dimorphic fungus. Although the cutaneous form is the most frequent presentation, the ocular involvement has been more frequently diagnosed in endemic areas, affecting mainly children and the elderly.

9. Brazilian research on child and adolescent suicide: looking at the past to plan the future
ABSTRACT Purpose: The conservative management of localized renal masses has been recently widened to cT2 tumors showing encouraging functional and oncological outcomes (1). This video aims to report the conservative management of a highly complex renal tumor treated with robotic pure enucleation in our center, specifically focusing on preoperative work-up,

11. Successful therapeutic approach in a patient with elephantiasic pretibial myxedema,
Abstract Localized pretibial myxedema is a dermopathy whose treatment is a challenge in dermatology, occurring in 0.5-4% of patients with Graves’ disease. This autoimmune thyroid condition stimulates the production of hyaluronic acid and glycosaminoglycans that are deposited particularly in the pretibial region. Clinically, it presents as a localized, circ
