2. Dynamic Systems with Fractional Derivatives Applied to Interagent Populations Problems
ABSTRACT The present work has as main objective to investigate the use of fractional calculus in the modeling of epidemic outbreaks of interacting populations. In particular, we propose a generalization of the SIR model with fractional derivatives to describe the dynamics of the COVID-19 epidemic outbreak in two cities with interacting populations. In specia

3. Inbreeding depression and genetic variability of populations for green maize production
ABSTRACT The production of green maize is considerable important for various regions of Brazil. It is vital that breeding programs of public institutions seek to meet the needs of this market sector, which has a relevant social role, mainly on small properties. The aim of this study was to estimate the inbreeding depression and the genetic components (m + a

4. A SIR Model with Spatially Distributed Multiple Populations Interactions for Disease Dissemination
ABSTRACT In this contribution we analyze a discretized SIR (Susceptible, Infectious, and Removed) compartmental model, to investigate the role of individual interactions in the spread of diseases. The compartments S i,j , I i , j and R i , j ( i , j , = 1 , 2 , . . . , n ) are spatially distributed in a two-dimensional n × n network. We assume tha

6. Braden scale has low reliability in different patients under care in intensive care unit
SUMMARY OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to assess the inter-reliability of the Braden scale and its subscales for different patients assisted in the intensive care unit. We hypothesized that the Braden scale has low reliability in different populations. METHODS: This reliability study involved the Braden scale in intensive care unit of a hospital. A t

7. Mortality from Cardiovascular Diseases: A Comparative Analysis between the Medical and Non-Medical Populations in Brazil
Abstract Background: Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the leading cause of death worldwide, including among physicians. Professional peculiarities increase cardiovascular risk in this population, making it relevant to analyze mortality in the medical population (MPop) and non-medical population (NMPop). Objectives: To compare the CVD mortality coefficient (

8. Case Series of Right Colon Diverticulitis in the West: A Neglected Disease?
Abstract Introduction Right colon diverticulitis (RCD) is an uncommon condition in Western populations, but its incidence has increased over the last decades. Due to its rarity, many surgeons are unfamiliar with this disease, which is often mistakenly diagnosed as acute appendicitis. The lack of data about the diagnosis and management of RCD in Western popu

9. Normocalcemic primary hyperparathyroidism
ABSTRACT Normocalcemic primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) is a newer phenotype of PHPT defined by elevated PTH concentrations in the setting of normal serum calcium levels. It is increasingly being diagnosed in the setting of evaluation for nephrolithiasis or metabolic bone diseases. It is important to demonstrate that PTH values remain consistently elevated

12. Novel Insecticides from Alkylated and Acylated Derivatives of Thymol and Eugenol for the Control of Plutella xylostella (Lepidoptera: Plutellidae)
Plutella xylostella cause considerable harm to the production of broccoli, Chinese cabbage, cabbage and cauliflower. The control of P. xylostella is mainly performed using commercial insecticides, which have even led to the emergence of resistant populations. Two easily available natural products found in different plants essential oil, thymol and eugenol, s
