13. B-mode and Doppler ultrasonography in the assessment of the common carotid arteries of equines and mules and the relation with body mass, age and neck circumference
RESUMO: Com o aumento da idade ocorrem alterações na anatomia e fisiologia cardiovascular, mesmo na ausência de doenças. Assim, os estudos da hemodinâmica dos vasos são considerados primordiais para detectar quaisquer alterações cardiovasculares. Esse trabalho tem como objetivo descrever as variáveis de ultrassonografia modo-B e Doppler espectral na

14. Allantoin as an independent marker associated with carotid intima-media thickness in subclinical atherosclerosis
Allantoin is the main product of uric acid oxidation and was found to be augmented in atherosclerotic plaque in human autopsy and in animal models of atherosclerosis. Uric acid is abundant in human plasma and is prone to oxidation in inflammatory conditions such as atherosclerosis. In this study, we found a significant increase in plasma uric acid (P=0.002)

15. Correlation between serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D levels and carotid intima-media thickness in a Brazilian population descended from African slaves
Hypovitaminosis D has been identified as a possible new cardiovascular risk factor. However, the results of studies correlating serum vitamin D levels with markers of subclinical atherosclerosis have been conflicting. The aim of this study was to correlate serum levels of 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D] with carotid intima-media thickness (C-IMT) and conventio

16. Combination of preoperative pulmonary and nutritional preparation for esophagectomy
Abstract Purpose: To compare pulmonary and nutritional parameters before and after inspiratory muscle training (IMT) and enteral feeding support in patients with esophageal disease undergoing preoperative outpatient follow-up. Methods: Thirty patients with a mean age of 55.83 years, 16 men and 14 women, were included. Pulmonary assessment consisted of the

17. Endothelial dysfunction in children with type 1 diabetes mellitus
ABSTRACT Objective The purpose of this study was to verify the presence of endothelial dysfunction and initial structural atherosclerotic changes in children with Type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM). Subjects and methods The study population comprised 31 diabetic children aged 6 to 12 years, divided into two subgroups according to the duration of the T1DM di

18. Aterogênese subclínica em pacientes com psoríase leve: um papel para IL-6?
Resumo Introdução: Foi postulada uma ligação entre psoríase e aterosclerose subclínica. A rede de citocinas pode intermediar essa associação. Poucos dados estão disponíveis em pacientes com psoríase leve. Avaliamos a espessura íntima-média carotídea (cIMT) em psoriáticos e controles livres de medicação. Paralelamente, pesquisamos a associa�

19. Different methods of calculating ankle-brachial index in mid-elderly men and women: the Brazilian Longitudinal Study of Adult Health (ELSA-Brasil)
The ankle-brachial index (ABI) is a marker of subclinical atherosclerosis related to health-adverse outcomes. ABI is inexpensive compared to other indexes, such as coronary calcium score and determination of carotid artery intima-media thickness (IMT). Our objective was to identify how the ABI can be applied to primary care. Three different methods of calcul

20. Tumor miofibroblástico inflamatório surgindo incidentalmente como lesão polipoide na vesícula biliar
RESUMO Tumor miofibroblástico inflamatório (IMT) é uma neoplasia mesenquimatosa rara, geralmente com origem nos tecidos moles abdominais. Uma paciente do sexo feminino com 50 anos apresentou-se com pólipo da vesícula biliar com 1,2 cm. No estudo microscópico, observou-se proliferação de células fusiformes em fundo edematoso, rico em plasmócitos e l

21. Design of a novel dual: band planar inverted F - antenna for mobile radio applications
The design of a novel compact dual band PIFA (Planar Inverted F-Antenna) as an embedded antenna is reported in this paper for mobile radio applications. The new shorted planar antenna is realized using copper sheet of thickness 1mm and air as the dielectric substrate. The radiating patch consists of a branch line slit to reduce the size of the antenna having

22. Elevated levels of plasma osteoprotegerin are associated with all-cause mortality risk and atherosclerosis in patients with stages 3 to 5 chronic kidney disease
Osteoprotegerin (OPG) regulates bone mass by inhibiting osteoclast differentiation and activation, and plays a role in vascular calcification. We evaluated the relationship between osteoprotegerin levels and inflammatory markers, atherosclerosis, and mortality in patients with stages 3-5 chronic kidney disease. A total of 145 subjects (median age 61 years, 6

23. Fator de crescimento transformante-β (TGF-β) mantém a ultraestrutura folicular e estimula o crescimento de folículos pré-antrais caprinos inclusos em tecido ovariano cultivado in vitro
O objetivo desse estudo foi investigar se o TGF-β afeta a sobrevivência, ativação e crescimento de folículos primordiais caprinos inclusos no córtex ovariano após o cultivo in vitro. Ovários de cabras foram coletados em abatedouro e fragmentos de tecido ovariano foram cultivados por um e sete dias em meio essencial mínimo alfa (α-MEM+) sozinho ou s

24. Endothelial wall thickness, cardiorespiratory fitness and inflammatory markers in obese and non-obese adolescents
Background: Increased carotid intima-media thickness (c-IMT) is considered a marker of early-onset atherosclerosis and it has been found in obese children and adolescents, but the risk factors associated with this population remain to be elucidated. Objective : To compare and verify the relationship between c-IMT, metabolic profile, inflammatory markers
