13. Mediators of energy homeostasis in hyperthyroidism
ABSTRACT Objective: The aim of this study was to assess the effect of hyperthyroidism and its treatment on body weight and composition, insulin resistance, and mediators of appetite and energy homeostasis, namely ghrelin, leptin, adiponectin, and fibroblast growth factor 21 (FGF21). Subjects and methods: Thirty-five adult patients (27 female and 8 male, ag

14. What anthropometric indicators are associated with insulin resistance? Cross-sectional study on children and adolescents with diagnosed human immunodeficiency virus
ABSTRACT BACKGROUND: Studies that test associations between anthropometric indicators and insulin resistance (IR) need to provide better evidence in the context of the pediatric population (children and adolescents) with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), as anthropometric indicators present a better explanation of the distribution of body fat. OBJECTIVE:

15. Effects of Obesity on the Auditory Function of Children and Adolescents
Abstract Introduction Childhood and adolescent obesity is associated with insulin resistance, abnormal glucose metabolism, hypertension, dyslipidemia, inflammation, liver disease, and compromised vascular function. Objective We aimed to evaluate the effects of obesity on the auditory function and speech audiometry of children and adolescents. Methods Subj

16. Resistance of cocoa to Moniliophthora perniciosa – progenitors and progenies selection
ABSTRACT Witches' broom, caused by Moniliophthora perniciosa, is the most important cacao disease in Brazil, and the final objective of this study is increasing the level and durability of resistance to this fungus, through the association of different alleles or genes favorable to the character, for the generation of new cocoa varieties. It was conducted, f

18. Sulfonylurea resistance in Amaranthus hybridus from southern Brazil
ABSTRACT Amaranthus hybridus is a C4 broadleaf species widely spread across Brazilian agricultural territory. Recently, several herbicide resistance reports have been documented in southern Brazil, including the reports for enolpyruvilshikymate-3-phosphate (EPSPS)- and acetolactate-synthase (ALS)- inhibitors. The objective of this study was to confirm the ex

19. Influence of the addition of niobium oxide on the properties of fused aluminum oxide used in abrasive tools
Abstract Fused alumina is a material used in the manufacturing of abrasive tools, due to its high fusion point, great hardness, and mechanical toughness. In this context, this study addressed the influence of niobium addition on the properties of fused alumina for abrasive applications. A comparison was also made between this oxide and the brown fused alumin

20. Secondary bacterial infections in patients with coronavirus disease 2019-associated pneumonia
SUMMARY OBJECTIVE: The vast majority of patients who hospitalized with coronavirus disease 2019 are given empirical antibiotic therapy. However, information on the frequency, microorganism species, and resistance rates of secondary bacterial infections in coronavirus disease 2019 patients are insufficient. We aimed to show the frequency of secondary infecti

21. Volatile Metabolomics from Cashew Leaves: Assessment of Resistance Biomarkers Associated with Black Mold (Pilgeriella anacardii Arx & Müller)
Black mold, a disease caused by the fungus Pilgeriella anacardii Arx & Müller, affects cashews (Anacardium occidentale). Some cashew clones are more resistant to the pathogen; however, little is known about the chemical profile responsible for this trait. The investigation of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) from leaves of dwarf cashew clones resistant (BR

23. Elevated levels of interleukin-18 are associated with several indices of general and visceral adiposity and insulin resistance in women with polycystic ovary syndrome
ABSTRACT Objective: Our aim was to analyze levels of proinflammatory biomarker interleukin-18 (IL-18) in healthy controls and patients with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) focusing on its association with obesity, clinical, hormonal, and metabolic characteristics. Subjects and methods: Fifty-eight patients with PCOS were enrolled in the study fulfilling t
