2. Prevalence of thyroid dysfunction in neonates receiving parenteral nutrition in the intensive care unit
Abstract Objective: The use of parenteral nutrition (PN) formulations that do not contain iodine can contribute to the deficiency of this mineral, potentially leading to hypothyroidism and, ultimately, neurocognitive impairments. This study aimed to evaluate TSH alterations in newborns receiving PN. Methods: Retrospective study of neonatal intensive care u

3. Cucurbit Powdery Mildew Race Identification by Triplet-Septet and Disease Progress Estimation
ABSTRACT The Triplet-Septet (TS) set of melon cucurbit powdery mildew (CPM) race differentials (CPMRD) was established to provide an international means for objective and uniform identification and designation on CPM races. The Area Under Disease Progress Stairs (AUDPS) method for disease progress estimation was derived from the Area Under Disease Progress C

4. FGF23 levels as a marker of physical performance and falls in community-dwelling very old individuals
ABSTRACT Objective: The fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) has been related to biological aging, but data in elderly individuals are scant. We determined the profile of serum FGF23 levels in a population of very-old individuals and studied their correlations with parameters of bone metabolism and health markers, as functional performance. Materials and me

5. Differences in hormonal levels between heterozygous CYP21A2 pathogenic variant carriers, non-carriers, and females with non-classic congenital hyperplasia
ABSTRACT Objective: CYP21A2 mutation heterozygote carriers seem to have an increased risk of hyperandrogenism. However, the clinical relevance of the heterozygote carrier status and the reliability of hormonal testing in discriminating a carrier from a non-carrier are puzzling questions. We aimed to characterize a population of Portuguese females suspected

7. HDL-Cholesterol in Children and Adolescents with Congenital Heart Disease
Abstract Background Children and adolescents with congenital heart disease may be more likely to develop atherogenic cardiovascular diseases in adulthood. Therefore, the early identification of risk factors and intervention in childhood may be crucial for a good quality of life and longevity. Objectives To describe the distribution of high-density lipoprot

8. Fatty acid-binding protein 4 circulating levels in non-segmental vitiligo
Abstract Background: Vitiligo is an acquired and progressive mucocutaneous disease resulting from the loss of active epidermal melanocytes. Metabolic syndrome (MetS) affects about 25% of the world’s population and is linked to inflammatory skin diseases including vitiligo. Fatty AcidBinding Protein 4 (FABP4) is an intracellular lipid chaperone. FABP4 is c

12. Soybean tolerance to defoliation at the beginning of pod formation as affected by plant density
ABSTRACT Soybean tolerance to defoliation may be affected by population density, as the plant population interferes with the crop leaf area index . This study aimed to evaluate the effect of defoliation at the beginning of pod formation on the agronomic performance of soybean at different plant densities. The experiment was conducted under field conditions i
