13. A 2.4 GHz Coplanar Solar Cell Patch Antenna with a Semi-Analytical Evaluation of Temperature Effects
Abstract Solar cells integrated with antennas have aroused scientific interest as an attractive energy source alternative in low power devices for IoT and Wireless Sensor Network applications. Since the space for all components in the systems is scarce, different integration ideas have been proposed in this field. However, further analysis of the performance

14. Minimal Invasive Thoracoscopic Mitral Valve Surgery
ABSTRACT Introduction: The totally thoracoscopic approach for mitral valve (MV) disease is a minimally invasive method. We investigated the procedure’s feasibility, safety and effectiveness when it was performed by an experienced operator. Methods: We retrospectively analysed 96 consecutive patients with MV disease treated between March 2016 and November

15. Internal Hernia After Laparoscopic Left Colectomy: Case Series and Review of the Literature
Abstract Objective Laparoscopic colectomy has gained acceptance as a standard treatment for benign and malignant colorectal disease, such as diverticular disease and cancer, among others. Same as in open surgery, the laparoscopic approach carries a low risk of small bowel obstruction in the postoperative period, but in laparoscopic surgery, internal hernia

16. Extraction and Characterization of Pequi Seed Oil for Biodiesel Production: A Green Management of Waste to Biofuel Using Ethanol and Heterogeneous Catalysis
This work reports the characterization of a vegetable oil extracted from pequi seeds, an agroindustrial residue, and its biodiesel production using ethanol and heterogeneous catalysis. The pequi seeds showed 40.73 wt.% of extractive content, which represents a large amount of the biomass composition. The crude oil extracted from the pequi seeds with ethanol

17. Classic and current concepts in adrenal steroidogenesis: a reappraisal
ABSTRACT Adrenal steroid biosynthesis and its related pathology are constant evolving disciplines. In this paper, we review classic and current concepts of adrenal steroidogenesis, plus control mechanisms of steroid pathways, distribution of unique enzymes and cofactors, and major steroid families. We highlight the presence of a “mineralocorticoid (MC) pat

18. Risk Factors for Deep Sternal Wound Infection after Off-Pump Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting: a Case-Control Study
Abstract Introduction: The objective of this study was to identify risk factors for deep sternal wound infection (DSWI) after off-pump coronary artery bypass (OPCAB) grafting surgery. Methods: A total of 8,442 patients undergoing OPCAB from April 1, 2009 to December 31, 2018 were retrospectively analyzed. A total of 956 were eventually enrolled on this stu

19. Preparation of SAPO-34-Based Catalyst for Conversion of Fructose to 5-Hydroxymethylfurfural
Solid acid-catalyzed dehydration of fructose to produce 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (5-HMF) has been a hotspot in biomass conversion research in recent years. In this study, a novel SAPO-34-based catalyst was prepared by consecutive steps of titanium doping, sulfuric acid impregnation, and sulfonic acid functionalization. Characterization of the catalyst with X-

20. MATHEMATICAL MODELS FOR ESTIMATING METHANE PRODUCTION IN COVERED LAGOON BIODIGESTERS TREATING PIG MANURE
ABSTRACT Covered lagoon biodigesters (CLB) have been widespread in Brazil in the treatment of pig manure. However, the quantification of biogas production in CLB using mathematical models is still limited and scarce. This study aimed to evaluate and compare six mathematical models—Chen-Hashimoto (Chen, 1983), CETESB (2006), COD Conversion (Chernicharo, 201
