13. Acute cor pulmonale due to lymphocytic interstitial pneumonia in a child with AIDS
BACKGROUND: Acute cor pulmonale is a clinical syndrome with signs of right-sided heart failure resulting from sudden increase of pulmonary vascular resistance. CASE PRESENTATION: A five-year-old male, infected by human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), was admitted at the division of infectious diseases of this hospital with cough, tachydyspnea, fever, and breat

14. Isolation of Staphylococcus epidermidis from inflamed upper respiratory tract of an orange-spined hairy dwarf porcupine (Sphiggurus villosus)
The orange-spined hairy dwarf porcupine (Sphiggurus villosus) is a rodent species common in most parts of South America, and little is known about the pathologies that can afflict it. A specimen was delivered at the Wildlife Research and Medical Center (CEMPAS), School of Veterinary Medicine and Animal Husbandry, UNESP, Botucatu, SP, Brazil. The animal showe

15. Comparação entre as avaliações objetiva e subjetiva da obstrução nasal em crianças e adolescentes com e sem rinite alérgica. / Comparison between objective and subjective assessments of nasal obstruction in children and adolescents with and without allergic rhinitis.
Objetivos: Comparar a avaliação objetiva da obstrução nasal, mensurada por rinometria acústica (RnA) (volume dos cinco primeiros centímetros da cavidade nasal, V5) e rinomanometria anterior ativa (RMAA) (resistência nasal total, RNT), com a avaliação subjetiva dada pelo escore de obstrução (EO, escala de 0 a 10) em crianças e adolescentes com rin

16. Uma nova abordagem na determinação da resistência das vias aéreas: técnica do interruptor vs. pletismografia
OBJETIVO: Determinar a concordância da medida da resistência das vias aéreas (RVA) pela técnica interrupter resistance (Rint, resistência do interruptor) com a do método pletismográfico para fins de aplicabilidade clínica. MÉTODOS: A técnica Rint foi realizada com os pacientes em posição sentada, em expiração, utilizando clipe nasal e com supor

17. Respiratory mechanics do not always mirror pulmonary histological changes in emphysema
OBJECTIVE: To verify the accordance of functional and morphometric parameters during the development of emphysema. METHODS: BALB/c mice received a nasal drop of either papain or saline solution and were studied after 1, 3, 15, 28, and 40 days. Functional parameters, such as airway resistance, tissue damping, and tissue elastance, were analyzed. To evaluate t

18. Tipagem molecular da cápsula de Haemophilus influenzae isolados da nasofaringe de crianças de creches de Goiânia / Molecular typing of the capsule of Haemophilus influenzae isolated from the nasopharynx of children in daycare centers in Goiânia
Haemophilus influenzae (Hi) causes infection in children, and is presented in two ways: with six encapsulated serotypes a-f and non-encapsulated or nontypeable (NTHi). Capsulated strains are responsible for a variety of invasive diseases, with meningitis being the most frequent. Nontypeable strains are responsible for respiratory tract infections and acute o

19. Identification and antimicrobial susceptibility of Staphylococcus from home-treated peritoneal dialysis patients
Staphylococcus aureus is the main agent of infections during peritoneal dialysis (PD). The presence of S. aureus in the nasal cavity has been extensively studied and suggested as a risk factor of dialysis-related infections, whereas coagulase-negative Staphylococcus (CNS) species are frequently considered part of the normal human microbiota. The aim of this

20. Prevalence and risk factors for Staphylococcus aureus in health care workers at a University Hospital of Recife-PE
Staphylococcus aureus is the main human pathogen that colonizes individuals in general population. The objective of the study was evaluate the epidemiological and sensitivity profile of S. aureus lineage, isolated in health care workers (HCW) of a University Hospital in Pernambuco state, Brazil. Biological samples of hands and nasal cavities were sown in aga

21. Análise de portadores assintomáticos de Staphylococcus aureus no Hospital Universitário de Brasília
Staphylococcus aureus is a pathogen associated with high rates of mortality and morbidity, capable of producing infections in various tissues of the human body. His ability to acquire resistance to antibiotics makes it a dangerous infectious agent in the hospital environment. The purpose of this work was to survey the incidence of asymptomatic carriers of S.

22. Associated risk factors and pulsed field gel electrophoresis of nasal isolates of Staphylococcus aureus from medical students in a tertiary hospital in Lagos, Nigeria
Staphylococcus aureus infections are growing problems worldwide with important implications in hospitals. The organism is normally present in the nasal vestibule of about 35% of apparently healthy individuals and its carriage varies between different ethnic and age groups. Staphylococcal nasal carriage among health workers is particularly important to establ

24. Proteção imunológica contra a formação de cistos cerebrais em camundongos vacinados pela via nasal com proteínas recombinates de Toxoplasma gondii
Toxoplasma gondii is a protozoan parasite which can invade and reside in a wide range of host cells. It can infect all warm-blooded animals, including human being. Parasite invasion is associated with protein secretion from three organelles: micronemes, rhoptries and dense granules. These excreted/secreted antigens were highly immunogenic in humans and roden
