1. Five-year performance analysis of a cystic fibrosis newborn screening program in northeastern Brazil
Abstract Objective: To analyze the performance of the cystic fibrosis (CF) newborn screening (NBS) program over its first five years in a Brazilian northeastern state. Methods: A population-based study using a screening algorithm based on immunoreactive trypsinogen (IRT)/IRT. Data were retrieved from the state referral screening center registry. The progra

2. Can remote assistance for robotic surgery improve surgical performance in simulation training? A prospective clinical trial of urology residents using a simulator in south america
ABSTRACT Introduction: We aimed to evaluate the role of remote proctoring during the initial training phases of a robotics curriculum using surgical robot skills simulator exercises. Materials and Methods: Prospective randomized study comprising 36 urology residents and junior staff urologists without previous robotic training. Group 1 (G1) performed exerc

3. A Way to Start Transanal Total Mesorectal Excision for Rectal Cancer
ABSTRACT Introduction The optimal rectal cancer care is achieved by a multidisciplinary approach, with a high-quality surgical resection, with complete mesorectal excision and adequate margins. New approaches like the transanal total mesorectal excision (TaTME) aim to achieve these goals, maximizing the sphincter preservation ratio, with good oncologic and

5. Gas exchange and water stress index in soybean cultivated under water deficit and soil compaction
ABSTRACT Water stress is intrinsically related to soil water availability which is determinant in gas exchanges, as well as soil compaction in soybean growth and development. This study aimed to evaluate the leaf gas exchange, water stress index, and dry mass accumulation of soybean cultivated in different daily irrigation depths and bulk density. The treatm

6. Contemporary techniques of da Vinci SP radical prostatectomy: multicentric collaboration and expert opinion
ABSTRACT Background The da Vinci SP robot consists of an innovative single port trocar that houses a flexible camera and three biarticulated arms, which minimizes the number of incisions to assess the surgical site, allowing a less invasive procedure. However, due to its recent release in the market, the current literature reporting SP-RARP is still restri

7. A Comparison of the Photolytic and Photocatalytic Degradation of Triclosan: Identification of Transformation Products and Ecotoxicity Evaluation
Triclosan (5-chloro-2-(2,4-dichlorophenoxy)phenol) is commonly used as an antibacterial agent in various industrial products and is often detected in wastewater effluent. Comparison was made for triclosan degradation by photolysis and TiO2 photocatalysis (under UV irradiation (125 W)) based on analysis of transformation products, together with ecotoxicity ev

8. On the Use of a TiO2 Sol-Gel for Horseradish Peroxidase Enzyme Immobilization for Development of an Amperometric Biosensor
The sol-gel technique has drawn considerable attention in the area of biomolecules immobilization by virtue of its intrinsic properties including chemical inertness, thermal stability, and good biocompatibility. The present work reports the development of a bio-sensing methodology which involves the immobilization of horseradish peroxidase enzyme (HRP) on pe

9. SEWAGE PERFORMANCE OF A NEW TYPE OF FLAP FILTER
ABSTRACT The drainage performance of a mesh filter determines the water consumption degree of the filter and the efficiency of the next work cycle. Through analysis, we found that the influent flow rate and the sediment content of the influent were important influencing factors. This experiment focused on the drainage time, pressure difference, and cleanline

10. Impacts of grade configuration on Brazilian student outcomes
Abstract In this paper we evaluate the impact of grade span configuration on student outcomes. We build a model which shows that the more homogeneous the cohort of students the higher the share of them which achieves the minimum level of academic performance required in an exam. We then test this theoretical finding by comparing performances of 5th-grade stu

11. Enzymatic efficiency of the decomposing microbiota: what does really matter for aquatic macrophytes invasions?
ABSTRACT Biological invasions have negative impacts on different ecosystem-level functions, such as nutrient cycling. In aquatic environments, exotic litter can change the activity of the decomposer microbiota. We tested whether litter quality, litter decay, and enzyme activity differed between nativeEgeria densaand exoticHydrilla verticillata. The invasive

12. Nitrogen top-dressing fertilization of maize cultivated in single and twin-row systems
ABSTRACT The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of cropping systems (single and twin-rows) and N fertilizer rates in the second top-dressing on the agronomic performance and relative economic returns of maize. The experiment was conducted in a randomized block design, with subplots and three repetitions. The plots were composed of two cropping sys
