13. An alternative energy generation from charcoal produced from Brazilian pine (Araucaria angustifolia (Bert.) O. Ktze) seed residues
The perspective is that the energy demand will grow in the coming decades worldwide. The search for renewable energy sources is urgent and necessary. Residual biomass may be a promising source of raw material for obtaining bioenergy. Thus, this research sought to evaluate the energetic and physicochemical properties of residues from the seeds of Brazilian pi

14. CD45RO+TILs: cellular biomarkers for larynx squamous cell carcinoma outcome
Abstract Objective: The prognostic importance of Tumor-Infiltrating Lymphocytes (TILs) in the tumor microenvironment of various cancers is increasingly recognized. In the present study, we aimed to investigate the prognostic value of CD3+, CD4+, CD8+, and CD45RO + TILs and their relation to histopathological features in larynx squamous cell carcinoma. Meth

15. Mix design formulation range for metakaolin-based geopolymer synthesis
Abstract This article presents a range of mix design formulations to obtain metakaolin-based geopolymer synthesis. Geopolymer samples were synthesized from metakaolin, a 10 M sodium hydroxide solution, and alkaline sodium silicate. These three components were mixed in different proportions to form a paste which was molded in a cylindrical shape, set at room

16. Therapeutics in Radiation-induced Proctopathy: A Systematic Review
Abstract Malignant neoplasms are increasingly prevalent in the daily clinical practice. Up to 61% of patients with pelvic malignancies undergo pelvic radiotherapy in different doses, which may cause intestinal damage, and the rectum is the segment most frequently affected due to its fixed position in the pelvis. Currently, there are several strategies to min

17. A SIR Model with Spatially Distributed Multiple Populations Interactions for Disease Dissemination
ABSTRACT In this contribution we analyze a discretized SIR (Susceptible, Infectious, and Removed) compartmental model, to investigate the role of individual interactions in the spread of diseases. The compartments S i,j , I i , j and R i , j ( i , j , = 1 , 2 , . . . , n ) are spatially distributed in a two-dimensional n × n network. We assume tha

20. Wnt3a but not CDX-2 expression is associated with differentiated thyroid cancer
SUMMARY OBJECTIVE: Thyroid neoplasm incidence has increased worldwide, mostly due to the advancements in medical imaging and screening rates. The aberrant Wnt/β-catenin pathway has been identified as a key mechanism, and it has also been related to the metastatic activity of differentiated thyroid cancer. We aimed to verify the difference in the expression

21. Prevalence and risk factors of incidental prostate cancer in certain surgeries for benign prostatic hyperplasia: A systematic review and meta-analysis
ABSTRACT Background: This study aimed to explore the prevalence and clinical risk factors in patients diagnosed with incidental prostate cancer (IPC) during certain surgeries (transurethral resection of the prostate [TURP], open prostatectomy [OP], and holmium laser enucleation of the prostate [HoLEP]) after clinically suspected benign prostatic hyperplasia

22. Dietary and circulating vitamin D and risk of renal cell carcinoma: a meta-analysis of observational studies
ABSTRACT Objective: This meta-analysis is the first to evaluate the associations of circulating and dietary intake of vitamin D with risk of risk of renal cell carcinoma (RCC). Our findings showed that higher circulating vitamin D level and dietary vitamin D intake were associated with a reduced risk of RCC. The possible explanation might be attributed to t

23. Evaluation of relationships between presence of adhesio interthalamica and cannabis use in first-episode psychosis: a magnetic resonance imaging investigation
ABSTRACT Recent studies suggested that cannabis use influences on the emergence of psychosis by disrupting neurodevelopmental processes that occur during adolescence and early adulthood and which are reflected on brain anatomical changes detectable with MRI. However, no MRI studies have investigated whether intrauterine neurodevelopmental abnormalities also

24. Efficacy of a glucose meter connected to a mobile app on glycemic control and adherence to self-care tasks in patients with T1DM and LADA: a parallel-group, open-label, clinical treatment trial
ABSTRACT Objective: The main aim of the study was to evaluate the patients’ glycemic control and adherence to self-care tasks. Materials and methods: Patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) or latent autoimmune diabetes of the adult (LADA) using a multiple daily injection (MDI) regimen with carbohydrate counting (n = 25, Subgroup B) or fixed insuli
