BACKGROUND: Doubts remain about atherosclerotic disease and risk stratification of asymptomatic type-2 diabetic patients (T2DP). This study aims to evaluate the usefulness of calcium score (CS) and coronary computed tomography (CT) angiography (CTA) to predict fatal and non fatal cardiovascular events (CVEV) in T2DP. METHODS: Eighty-five consecutive T2DP undergoing CT (Phillips Brilliance, 16-slice) with CS and...
OBJECTIVE: To compare the last generation of 3-dimensional imaging (3D) vs standard 2-dimensional imaging (2D) laparoscopy. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A prospective observational study was conducted during the 4th Minimally Invasive Urological Surgical Week Course held in Braga (Portugal) in April 2013. The course participants and faculty were asked to perform standardized tasks in the dry laboratory setting and ra...

Because proteins are large complex molecules direct study of protein-electrolyte interactions is difficult. It is therefore useful investigate the interaction of model coumpounds such amino acids, peptides has strongly attracting the attention researchers to describe their physico-chemical properties.
The estimation of 1 dB compression and third-order intercept points can be obtained after the cross-correlation between dynamic current and output voltage of radio frequency power amplifiers. This estimation is performed using actual power measures and not power inferred from voltage measurements. The underlining theory and a correlator that allows implementing this measurement on-chip are presented. The trade-...
As estratégias de combate à brucelose bovina são bastante conhecidas e, até o momento, os resultados são divergentes. No Brasil, o Ministério da Agricultura, Pecuária e Abastecimento (MAPA) implementou, em 2001, o Programa Nacional de Controle e Erradicação da Brucelose e Tuberculose. Conhecer a situação epidemiológica da brucelose no início de um programa de controle permite: 1 - escolher as melhores estratégi...
Acute myocardial infarction is a rare event in the puerperium that can have life-threatening consequences if not diagnosed early. Spontaneous coronary artery dissection is the most frequent causative mechanism in the period immediately after labor. This article reports the case of a 38-year-old woman with acute myocardial infarction due to spontaneous coronary artery dissection on the 7th day after delivery. Th...
Foi adotado o tratamento intermitente da tuberculose com isoniazida em 240 bovinos de um rebanho naturalmente infectado pelo M. bovis. No início do tratamento 36,6% dos animais foram reagentes positivos e 2,9% inconclusivos. Todos os animais do rebanho receberam isoniazida por via oral em doses de 25mg/kg de peso vivo, administrada três vezes por semana, às segundas, quartas e sextas-feiras, durante 10 meses, p...
