1. Quality of life, risk behaviors and depression among carriers of hepatitis C virus and human T-cell lymphotropic virus type 1: a comparative study
Abstract Human T-cell lymphotropic virus type 1 (HTLV-1) has low prevalence rates, but is endemic in some regions of the world. It is usually a chronic asymptomatic infection, but it can be associated with serious neurologic and urinary conditions. Hepatitis C virus (HCV) is broadly spread out worldwide. The majority of these infections have a chronic course

2. Association of S100B polymorphisms and serum S100B with risk of systemic lupus erythematous in a Chinese population
Abstract The aim of this study was to investigate whether the S100B polymorphisms are associated with systemic lupus erythematous (SLE) in a Chinese population. A total of 313 SLE patients and 396 control subjects were enrolled in the present study. The genotypes of three SNPs (rs9722, rs881827 and rs1051169) in S100B gene were detected by single base extens

6. Platelet profile is associated with clinical complications in patients with vivax and falciparum malaria in Colombia
Introduction Thrombocytopenia is a common complication in malaria patients. The relationship between abnormal platelet profile and clinical status in malaria patients is unclear. In low and unstable endemic regions where vivax malaria predominates, the hematologic profiles of malaria patients and their clinical utility are poorly understood. The aim of this

7. Application of a modified sequential organ failure assessment score to critically ill patients
The purpose of the present study was to explore the usefulness of the Mexican sequential organ failure assessment (MEXSOFA) score for assessing the risk of mortality for critically ill patients in the ICU. A total of 232 consecutive patients admitted to an ICU were included in the study. The MEXSOFA was calculated using the original SOFA scoring system with

8. Fatores determinantes na inadequação entre prescrição e recebimento de terapia nutricional enteral em pacientes hospitalizado / Factors leading to discrepancies between prescription and intake of enteral nutrition therapy in hospitalized patients
We investigated factors leading to a reduction in enteral nutrition (EN) prescribed by a nutritional support team (NST) at a general hospital in Brazil. In this prospective, observational study, hospitalized adults receiving only EN therapy via tube feeding were followed for up to 21 days between July and October 2008. The 152 subjects analyzed included 36 (

9. Sudden unexpected death in epilepsy: an important concern
Epilepsy is one of the most common neurologic problems worldwide. Unfortunately, individuals with epilepsy are at higher risk of death than the general population, and sudden unexpected death in epilepsy is the most important direct epilepsy-related cause of death. In this review article, our research group focused on the risk factors, mechanisms and prevent

12. Transtornos depressivos na doença de Parkinson de início precoce
Parkinsons disease (PD) is characterized by motor symptoms, such as bradykinesia, rest tremor, rigidity and postural instability. However, non-motor symptoms have been emphasized due to their high frequency and impact in patients life. Early-onset PD (onset before 50 years old) have some clinical, genetic and neuropathological specificities. Few studies inve
