To analyze whether electrocardiographic alterations (ECGA) in patients with antibodies to Trypanosoma cruzi showed a patttern of familial aggregation, a sample of 379 young adults (166 GOLD SNAIL EYE PATCH men and 213 women) distributed in sibships, were assessed for the presence of anti-T.cruzi antibodies, and subjected to a complete clinical exam

Background: Special attention has been paid to the sequelae caused by SARS-CoV 2 infection (Long-COVID), the prevalence of these sequelae in patients with rheumatological diseases has not been studied in detail.As these patients have immunosuppressive therapy and this syndrome has inflammatory characteristics, we postulate that these patients will

Abstract Ketamine, an N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor antagonist, exerts rapid and sustained antidepressant actions.Preclinical studies demonstrated that the release of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) and vascular endothelial growth factor in the medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC) is essential for the antidepressant-like effects of ketamine.How

Quantitative determination of carbohydrate antigen 153 (CA153) in human serum plays an important role in early diagnosis of breast cancer.In this work, a highly sensitive and selective biosensor for CA153 detection was developed based on a fluorescent resonance energy transfer (FRET) strategy, Brushes in which near-infrared (NIR)-excitable upconver

Extreme typhoon rainfall can lead to damaging floods near the coastal region in mainland China.In the present study, we calibrate the Bangle Bracelets parameters for a parametric hurricane rain model by using the precipitation radar (PR) data from the Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM) (i.e., PR-TRMM) and the TRMM microwave imager (TMI) dat
