13. Low-cost and high-efficiency automated tensiometer for real-time irrigation monitoring
RESUMO Conhecer a umidade de solo disponível para as plantas é preponderante para o manejo adequado do uso da água nas propriedades agrícolas, sendo os métodos automatizados os mais precisos. Entretanto, os custos de aquisição são elevados e a maioria dos controladores de irrigação ainda trabalha com tempos pré-definidos. Assim, o estudo teve por

14. Validation of a classification and scoring system for the diagnosis of laryngeal and pharyngeal squamous cell carcinomas by confocal laser endomicroscopy
Abstract Introduction: Confocal laser endomicroscopy is an optical imaging technique that allows in vivo, real-time, microscope-like images of the upper aerodigestive tract’s mucosa. The assessment of morphological tissue characteristics for the correct differentiation between healthy and malignant suspected mucosa requires strict evaluation criteria. Ob

15. Investigation of allele frequencies of polymorphic variants in genes that are related to polycystic ovary syndrome
SUMMARY OBJECTIVE: Polycystic ovary syndrome is a hormonal disorder that normally affects women of reproductive age in the range of 18–44 years. This study aimed to investigate the allelic frequencies of two polymorphisms, IRS rs18012781 and INSR rs1799817, which are suspected to be involved in polycystic ovary syndrome. METHODS: The samples were obtaine

16. Expression Level and Significance of Tim-3 in CD4+ T Lymphocytes in Peripheral Blood of Patients with Coronary Heart Disease
Abstract Objective: To investigate the expression level and significance of T cell immunoglobulin and mucin-domain containing molecules-3 (Tim-3) and interleukin-7 (IL-7) in CD4+ T lymphocytes in peripheral blood of patients with coronary heart disease (CHD). Methods: 75 patients with CHD treated at our hospital were selected and classified as mild group (

17. Investigation of maternal polymorphisms in genes related to glucose homeostasis and the influence on birth weight: a cohort study
Abstract Objectives: To contribute to a better understanding of the maternal genetic mechanisms that influence obstetric outcomes and that are involved in maternal and child health, this study aimed to evaluate the association between maternal genetic variants and the offspring birth weight by analyzing single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in genes relate

18. Fibroblast morphology, growth rate and gene expression in facial melasma
Abstract Background: In addition to melanocytic hyperfunction, changes are observed in the upper dermis of melasma, and fibroblasts play a central role in collagen synthesis and pigmentation induction. Objective: To explore the morphology, growth rate, and gene expression profile of fibroblasts from the skin with melasma in comparison to fibroblasts from t

19. The A allele of the rs759853 single nucleotide polymorphism in the AKR1B1 gene confers risk for diabetic kidney disease in patients with type 2 diabetes from a Brazilian population
ABSTRACT Objective: The AKR1B1 gene encodes an enzyme that catalyzes the reduction of glucose into sorbitol. Chronic hyperglycemia in patients with diabetes mellitus (DM) leads to increased AKR1B1 affinity for glucose and, consequently, sorbitol accumulation. Elevated sorbitol increases oxidative stress, which is one of the main pathways related to chronic

20. Fast, cheap and feasible: Implementation of pediatric telemedicine in a public hospital during the Covid-19 pandemic
Abstract Objective: In Brazil, telemedicine was allowed as an exception during the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic. Despite its recognized value and availability, telemedicine is not universally used, suggesting that some barriers prevent its adoption and acceptance within the community. This study aims to describe the implementation of a low-cost t

21. Surgical Approach and Management Strategies in a Pediatric Cardiovascular Surgery Clinic During the COVID-19 Outbreak
ABSTRACT Introduction: The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has required changes in the management of pediatric cardiac surgery. We would like to share the patient treatment and surgical management strategies employed in our Pediatric Cardiovascular Surgery Clinic during the COVID-19 pandemic. Methods: A total of 112 patients were followed up i

22. The circadian timing of noise exposure influences noise-induced inflammatory responses in the mouse cochlea
Abstract Introduction: Noise-induced hearing loss is one of the most common forms of sensorineural hearing loss. Nevertheless, the mechanisms of noise-induced hearing loss are still not fully understood. Objective: To investigate the dynamics of inflammatory responses in the mammalian cochlea following noise trauma at two different times, once during the l

23. Changes in gap junction proteins Connexin30.2 and Connexin40 expression in the sinoatrial node of rats with dexmedetomidine-induced sinus bradycardia
Abstract Background Dexmedetomidine (Dex) is widely used, and its most common side effect is bradycardia. The complete mechanism through which Dex induces bradycardia has not been elucidated. This research investigates the expression of gap junction proteins Connexin30.2 (Cx30.2) and Connexin40 (Cx40) within the sinoatrial node of rats with Dex-induced sinu

24. Evaluation of the promoter methylation status of hypoxia factor 3A and interleukin-6 genes and expression levels of mir-130b and mir-146b in childhood obesity
SUMMARY OBJECTIVE: Obesity, which causes many serious diseases, is increasing exponentially in childhood across the world. Epigenetic changes, as well as genetics, play an important role in the process of adipogenesis. Therefore, we aimed to examine the expression levels of obesity-related MicroRNA-130b and MicroRNA-146b and the methylation status of hypoxi
