1. Effect of candesartan treatment on echocardiographic indices of cardiac remodeling in post-myocardial infarction patients
SUMMARY Objective: Myocardial infarction has unfavorable effect on structural and functional properties of the myocardium, referred to as cardiac remodeling. Left ventricular mass, left ventricular mass index, and relative wall thickness are important predictors of cardiac remodeling. In this study, we investigated the effect of candesartan treatment in com

2. Behavior of expanded polystyrene as lightweight filler in retaining walls with intermediate slabs
Abstract The present study explores a retaining wall with an intermediate slab. To reduce the lateral earth pressure on the wall, the substitution of part of the soil by blocks of expanded polystyrene (EPS) with high density is proposed, which could result in significant economic savings. Also, the possibility of building the wall elevation with smaller thic

3. Ventilation-induced changes correlate to pulmonary vascular response and VEGF, VEGFR-1/2, and eNOS expression in the rat model of postnatal hypoxia
Neonatal asphyxia occurs due to reduction in oxygen supply to vital organs in the newborn. Rapid restoration of oxygen to the lungs after a long period of asphyxia can cause lung injury and decline of respiratory function, which result from the activity of molecules that induce vascular changes in the lung such as nitric oxide (NO) and vascular endothelial g

4. A new material to prevent urethral damage after implantation of artificial devices: an experimental study
ABSTRACT Objective To validate the application of the bacterial cellulose (BC) membrane as a protecting barrier to the urethra. Materials and Methods Forty female Wistar rats (four groups of 10): Group 1 (sham), the urethra was dissected as in previous groups and nothing applied around; Group 2, received a 0.7cm strip of the BC applied around the urethra

5. Numerical Modeling of Corrosion Effectson Ultimate Strength of DX Tubular Joints
Abstract This article presents the results of numerical investigation on modeling buckling behavior and ultimate strength of corroded multi-planar tubular joints. Finite element method was used in order to simulate the behavior of DX multi-planar tubular joints under axial compressive loading. Three different patterns were chosen for corrosion modeling. Also

6. 12 mm Thick Circular Blanks of Al-killed AISI 1020 Steel -Applied for Cylindrical Cup Manufacturing by Multistage Deep Drawing with Simultaneous Ironing
Abstract In this paper a new modified processing route has been proposed for producing long cylindrical cups from 12 mm thick circular blanks of AISI 1020 steel (Aluminium (Al) -killed). In this route, flat blanks were made to preformed shape by stamping operation, followed by multistage deep drawing processes(without blank-holder and with inter-stage stress

7. Effects of traction on the spermatic cord of rats
PURPOSE: To determine whether tension in the spermatic cord of rats causes lesions in the testis, epididymis or vas deferens.METHODS:Forty Wistar rats were randomly allocated into four groups. A traction force of 1.6 Newton (N) in group I and 1 N in group II was applied to the right spermatic cord. Group III was the sham, and group IV served as the control.R

8. Bladder control training in girls with lower urinary tract dysfunction
PurposeTo evaluate the efficacy of standard and biofeedback bladder control training (BCT) on the resolution of dysfunctional elimination syndrome (primary outcome), and on the reduction of urinary tract infections (UTI) and the use of medications such as antibacterial prophylaxis and/or anticholinergic/alpha-blockers (secondary outcome) in girls older than

9. Controle cardiovascular em fêmeas ooforectomizadas diabéticas: efeitos do treinamento físico dinâmico aeróbio, resistido ou combinado / Cardiovascular control in female diabetic ovariectomized rats: effects of dynamic aerobic, resistance and combined exercise training
Aerobic exercise training induces attenuation of cardiometabolic disorders that affect postmenopausal and/or diabetic women. However, there few and controversial studies involving resistance or combined training (aerobic + resistance) in these conditions. Thus, the objectives of this study were to evaluate the metabolic, cardiac, hemodynamic and autonomic ef

10. COATING CONTRIBUTION ON THE ACOUSTIC PERFORMANCE OF MASONRY WALLS / AVALIAÇÃO DA CONTRIBUIÇÃO DO REVESTIMENTO NA ISOLAÇÃO SONORA DE PAREDES DE ALVENARIA
The research presents the sound insulation in masonry walls coated with plaster. Three walls were built in laboratory, studied in specific tests. Measurements were carried out varying some components of the wall, such as the type of the block and the combinations of coarse mortar, plaster and stucco on the faces of the wall. The mortars used in the tests wer

11. Comparison of prophylactic and therapeutic use of short-chain fatty acid enemas in diversion colitis: a study in Wistar rats
OBJECTIVES: To study the effect of short-chain fatty-acids on atrophy and inflammation of excluded colonic segments before and after the development of diversion colitis. INTRODUCTION: Diversion colitis is a chronic inflammatory process affecting the dysfunctional colon, possibly evolving with mucous and blood discharge. The most favored hypotheses to explai

12. Effects of aerobic exercise training on cardiac hemodynamic, autonomic and morphofunctional adaptations in spontaneously hypertensive rats: role of baroreflex / Efeitos do treinamento físico aeróbio nas adaptações hemodinâmicas, autonômicas e morfofuncionais cardíacas da hipertensão espontânea: influência do barorreflexo
Baroreceptors regulate moment-to-moment changes in blood pressure (BP) and respond for the adequate modulation of autonomic nervous system in physiological situations. In arterial hypertension, there is autonomic function impairment with descreased baroreflex sensitivity and sympathetic activity predominance, besides the progressive cardiac morphofunctional
