1. Ultrassonografia abdominal em quatis (Nasua nasua Linnaeus 1766) hígidos? descrição anátomo-topográfica / Abdominal ultrasonography in coati (Nasua nasua linnaeus 1766) higidus; Anatom-topographic description
In the last years, the interest for the study of the Brazilian faunas animals has been increasing considerably as a result of the risk of extinction or aiming for the control of the diseases, specially the zoonoses. The Coati (Nasua nasua) is an exclusive species of South America, classified as vulnerable in some states of Brazil. In spite of its large distr

2. Avaliação de fatores de virulência e tipagem molecular das Escherichia coli relacionadas a infecções do trato urinário feminino
As infecções do trato urinário (ITU) constituem uma das doenças mais comuns na prática médica geral, respondendo por grande parte dos processos infecciosos comunitários e hospitalares, ocorrendo em indivíduos de todas as faixas etárias, sendo as mulheres normalmente mais acometidas. No presente estudo foram analisados 295 isolados de Escherichia col

3. Videoendoscopic surgery by extraperitoneal access
Laparoscopic surgery in urology is definitely incorporated to the techniques of minimally invasive treatment for urogenital diseases. Though the classic access to organs in the urinary tract is extraperitoneal, this access has not been prioritized when the videoendoscopic technique is used. In Brazil, few groups use this approach and little has been discusse

5. Multiple functional defects in peripheral autonomic organs in mice lacking muscarinic acetylcholine receptor gene for the M3 subtype
Muscarinic acetylcholine receptors consist of five distinct subtypes and have been important targets for drug development. In the periphery, muscarinic acetylcholine receptors mediate cholinergic signals to autonomic organs, but specific physiological functions of each subtype remain poorly elucidated. Here, we have constructed and analyzed mutant mice lacki

6. Incidence of cancer and mortality among workers exposed to mercury vapour in the Norwegian chloralkali industry.
Incidence of cancer and mortality were studied among 674 men exposed to mercury vapour for more than one year at two chloralkali plants. Mercury excretion in urine had been monitored among the workers at the two plants since 1948 and 1949. An individual cumulative urinary mercury dose was calculated, based on about 20,000 urinary mercury measurements. The in

7. Targeted disruption of the arylsulfatase B gene results in mice resembling the phenotype of mucopolysaccharidosis VI.
Mucopolysaccharidosis VI (MPS VI) is a lysosomal storage disease with autosomal recessive inheritance caused by a deficiency of the enzyme arylsulfatase B (ASB), which is involved in degradation of dermatan sulfate and chondroitin 4-sulfate. A MPS VI mouse model was generated by targeted disruption of the ASB gene. Homozygous mutant animals exhibit ASB enzym

8. Oxidative damage to DNA during aging: 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine in rat organ DNA and urine.
Oxidative damage to DNA is shown to be extensive and could be a major cause of the physiological changes associated with aging and the degenerative diseases related to aging such as cancer. The oxidized nucleoside, 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine (oh8dG), one of the approximately 20 known oxidative DNA damage products, has been measured in DNA isolated from vari

9. Cardiovascular abnormalities with normal blood pressure in tissue kallikrein-deficient mice
Tissue kallikrein is a serine protease thought to be involved in the generation of bioactive peptide kinins in many organs like the kidneys, colon, salivary glands, pancreas, and blood vessels. Low renal synthesis and urinary excretion of tissue kallikrein have been repeatedly linked to hypertension in animals and humans, but the exact role of the prote

10. Mortality and cancer incidence in chloralkali workers exposed to inorganic mercury.
Mortality and cancer incidence were studied in men exposed to inorganic mercury at eight Swedish chloralkali plants where individual biological monitoring data were available. Urinary mercury excretion has declined from about 200 micrograms/l during the 1950s to less than 50 micrograms/l today. These workers had also been exposed to chlorine and static magne

11. Mortality of workers in an automobile engine and parts manufacturing complex.
A proportionate mortality ratio (PMR) study was conducted using data on workers from three local unions representing an integrated automobile factory composed of forge, foundry, and engine (machine and assembly) plants. Ninety four percent of the death certificates were obtained for all active and non-active workers who died during the period 1 January 1970
