The use of ultrasonography to evaluate muscle thickness and subcutaneous fat in children and adolescents with cystic fibrosis
(Sociedade de Pediatria de São Paulo, 2018)
Objective: To compare muscle thickness and subcutaneous fat in cystic fibrosis (CF) patients and healthy controls using ultrasonography (US), and to correlate US findings with nutritional, clinical and ...
Evidence of functional declining and global comorbidity measured at baseline proved to be the strongest predictors for long-term death in elderly community residents aged 85 years: a 5-year follow-up evaluation, the OCTABAIX study
(Dove Press, 2016-04-18)
Objective: To investigate the predictive value of functional impairment, chronic conditions, and laboratory biomarkers of aging for predicting 5-year mortality in the elderly aged 85 years. Methods: ...
In vivo osteogenic potential of biomimetic hydroxyapatite/collagen microspheres: comparison with injectable cement pastes
(Public Library of Science, 2015-07-01)
The osteogenic capacity of biomimetic calcium deficient hydroxyapatite microspheres with and without collagen obtained by emulsification of a calcium phosphate cement paste has been evaluated in an in ...
Contact dermatitis in children: a 16-year study of 396 children
(Yumed Text Publications, 2019-08)
Background: Contact dermatitis in continuing to be increasingly recognized in pediatric populations, especially in those with atopic dispositions. Exposures in children parallel those seen in adult ...
The quantitative changes in the yeast Hsp70 and Hsp90 interactomes upon DNA damage
(Elsevier, 2015-03)
The molecular chaperones Hsp70 and Hsp90 participate in many important cellular processes, including how cells respond to DNA damage. Here we show the results of applied quantitative affinity-purification ...

Nucleosome architecture throughout the cell cycle
(Nature Research, 2016-01-28)
Nucleosomes provide additional regulatory mechanisms to transcription and DNA replication
by mediating the access of proteins to DNA. During the cell cycle chromatin undergoes several
conformational ...
Synthesis and deposition of silver nanoparticles on cp Ti by laser ablation in open air for antibacterial effect in dental implants
(Elsevier, 2018-07-30)
Silver nanoparticles have been synthetized and deposited on cp Ti substrates in one-step process by the use of laser ablation in open air. The nanoparticles are produced by ablating Ag foil using two ...
Reference values for inspiratory muscle endurance in healthy children and adolescents
(Public Library of Science, 2017)
Aims: To generate reference values for two inspiratory muscle endurance (IME) protocols in healthy children and adolescents. Materials and methods: This is an observational, cross-sectional study, in ...
Task-dependent modulation of the visual sensory thalamus assists visual-speech recognition
(Elsevier, 2018-09)
The cerebral cortex modulates early sensory processing via feed-back connections to sensory pathway nuclei. The functions of this top-down modulation for human behavior are poorly understood. Here, we ...
