Background: Surgical repair of pectus excavatum (PE) has become more popular due to improvements in the minimally invasive Nuss procedure. The pre-surgical assessment of PE patients requires Computerized Tomography (CT), as the malformation characteristics vary from patient to patient. Objective: This work aims to characterize soft tissue thickness (STT) external to the ribs among PE patients. It also presents ...
This paper is the result of a research project that began in 2007 – 2008 in the Faculty of Architecture of Porto University (FAUP), which had as aim to adopt a blended learning approach integrating the Centre for Spatial Communication and Representation (CCRE) (http://web.ccre.arq.up.pt) for teaching CAAD to students of Architecture Graduation course in the the 3rd year. The objective is first to evaluate...

Human rhinoviruses (HRV) are usually associated with mild respiratory symptoms in children. However, some studies have found that HRV can cause severe disease, especially when the patient is co-infected with a second virus. In this study, 532 nasopharyngeal aspirates (NPAs) were collected over a nine-year period from children at the Clinics Hospital of Uberlândia. The collected NPAs were then tested for HRV RNA...
Há grande variabilidade inter-individual nas adaptações cardiovasculares a treinamento com exercícios físicos e dieta, provavelmente devido a variações genéticas. Portanto o objetivo geral desta tese foi investigar o impacto de variações no gene da enzima óxido nítrico sintase endotelial (eNOS) sobre adaptações da reatividade vascular e modulação autonômica induzidas por treinamento com exercícios físicos e die...
O desenvolvimento da avicultura brasileira leva as aves a índices de produção e qualidade cada vez mais eficientes, com estudos na área genética e manejo. A fase de recria e pré-postura é decisiva para o desenvolvimento e produtividade da galinha adulta e os estudos de nutrição buscam o ideal entre nutrientes fornecidos, produtividade, custo e sustentabilidade. Com o presente estudo, busca-se determinar a relaç...
The human metapneumovirus (hMPV) is a pathogen of the respiratory tract first identified in The Netherlands in 2001 and since then has already been detected in all continents. The purpose of this study was to identify and characterize hMPV in samples collected from children <5 years presenting acute respiratory disease seen at a public hospital in Uberlândia, in Southeast Brazil. One hundred fourteen nasopharyn...
