1. Functional status of individuals with osteogenesis imperfecta: data from a reference center
Abstract Objective: To evaluate the functional status of individuals with Osteogenesis Imperfecta (OI) followed up at a reference center in the state of Bahia. Materials and methods: This is an observational, cross-sectional, descriptive study, which evaluated individuals with OI, based on a non-probabilistic sampling. To assess motor function, the Motor F

2. Efficacy and Risks of Therapeutic Hypothermia after Pediatric Cardiac Arrest: A Systematic Review
Abstract Background: Therapeutic hypothermia is used in adults and neonates after cardiac arrest, but its efficiency in children under 18 years old is still uncertain. Objective: To evaluate the effectiveness and risks of therapeutic hypothermia after cardiac arrest in children under 18 years of age through a systematic review. Methods: A systematic revie

3. A New Miniaturized Low-Profile and Stable Dual-Band FSS with 2.5D Structure for ISM Bands
Abstract Based on 2.5-Dimensional (2.5D) frequency selective surface (FSS) structures, a new miniaturized frequency selective surface structure is proposed in this work to operate as a bandreject filter in the 2.4 GHz (2400 to 2483.5 MHz) and 5 GHz (5150 to 5350 MHz and 5470 to 5725 MHz) ISM (Industrial, Scientific, and Medical) bands. The FSS has the metall

4. Serum vascular endothelial growth factor as a marker for tubal pregnancy
SUMMARY OBJECTIVE: The objective of this study was to evaluate whether a single measurement of vascular endothelial growth factor could distinguish between intrauterine pregnancy and ectopic pregnancy and to correlate the levels of vascular endothelial growth factor with serum levels of progesterone andβ-human chorionic gonadotropin in each subgroup.

5. Longitudinal measurement invariance of neuropsychological tests in a diverse sample from the ELSA-Brasil study
Objective: Longitudinal measurement invariance analyses are an important way to assess a test’s ability to estimate the underlying construct over time, ensuring that cognitive scores across visits represent a similar underlying construct, and that changes in test performance are attributable to individual change in cognitive abilities. We aimed to evaluat

6. Return to work after severe traumatic brain injury: further investigation of the role of personality changes
Objective: Longitudinal measurement invariance analyses are an important way to assess a test’s ability to estimate the underlying construct over time, ensuring that cognitive scores across visits represent a similar underlying construct, and that changes in test performance are attributable to individual change in cognitive abilities. We aimed to evaluat

8. Pelvic floor muscles after prostate radiation therapy: morpho-functional assessment by magnetic resonance imaging, surface electromyography and digital anal palpation
ABSTRACT Aim: To evaluate the radiotherapy (RT) effect in the pelvic floor muscles (PFM) function in men with prostate cancer (PC). Materials and Methods: A cross-sectional study included three groups of patients with PC and RT indication: 1) Pre-RT group: evaluated before the beginning of RT; 2) Acute group: evaluated between six months and one year after

10. Adequate Number of Swallows for Pharyngeal Pressure Measurement of a Subject using High-resolution Manometry
Abstract Introduction The number of pressure measurements that need to be recorded using high-resolution manometry (HRM) for the accurate evaluation of pharyngeal function is not well established. Objective The purpose of this study is to clarify the number of swallows required to obtain an accurate pharyngeal manometric profile of a person. Methods Fort

11. FITTING AND CALIBRATING A MIXED-EFFECTS SEGMENTED TAPER MODEL FOR BRUTIAN PINE
ABSTRACT Taper models are one of several necessary tools in modern forest inventory, giving information on diameter at any point along the tree stem and this information can also be used to estimate stem volume. In this study, we used nonlinear mixed-effects (NLME) modeling approach to minimize existing statistical problems in constructing taper equations. A

12. Impact of the reduction in TSH cutoff level to 6 mIU/L in neonatal screening for congenital hypothyroidism in Santa Catarina: final results
ABSTRACT Oubjective: To assess the implications of changing the cutoff level of TSH from 10 to 6 mIU/L. Subjects and methods: The study population was constituted by 74.123 children screened for congenital hypothyroidism by the National Screening Program in Santa Catarina, from March 2011 to February 2012. The cutoff of TSH was 6 mIU/L. If TSH between 6-10
