Endogenous bacterial endophthalmitis is an uncommon disease, secondary to hematogenous spread of a septic focus. Despite advances in diagnostic and therapeutic methods, it remains a potential cause of blindness. We report a case of a diabetic patient with endogenous endophthalmitis of the right eye secondary to an Escherichia coli bacteremia of urinary origin. The evolution was torpid, with loss of visual acuit...
Difunctional allylic terpenes are important synthetic building blocks. Functionalization of protected geranyl derivatives by SeO2/t-BuO2H adsorbed on SiO2 provides a convenient route to such compounds. The chosen protecting groups clearly influence the oxidation process. Also, an efficient synthesis of 2-geranylphenol derivatives via a Cu(I)-mediated Grignard coupling of 2-lithiophenols and geranyl substrates w...
Twenty three infants with neonatal seizures were followed prospectively to a mean age of 11 months. Only 2 were pre-term and birth weight ranged from 1700 to 4230 grams, with 17 male and 6 female infants. Hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy was the most common etiology (82.6%). Focal clonic convulsions were the predominant seizure type, present in 7/16 infants in which the seizure type could be identified. All infa...
Foi estudada a influência do nível sócio-econômico (NSE) em variáveis biológicas que apresentam importância em estudos de etnia (peso ao nascer, idade gestacional e número de gestações) em 734 crianças normais nascidas em 5 maternidades brasileiras. Os recém-nascidos foram classificados em grupos étnicos de acordo com seus antecedentes raciais. Concluiu-se que o NSE está associado com as variáveis peso ao nasce...
