1. Avaliação do uso de brincos e body piercing como indicadores de soropositividade para doenças transfusionais
Introdução: Sangue e derivados são ainda essenciais para tratamento de diversas condições médicas, para os quais ainda não têm substitutos. Sangue para transfusão se obtém de voluntários que passam por diversas etapas durante o processo de doação. Associação entre tatuagens e soropositividade para doenças transmissíveis por transfusão (DTT)

2. Receptor for advanced glycation end-products (RAGE) is an indicator of direct lung injury in models of experimental lung injury
Receptor for advanced glycation end-products (RAGE) is a marker of alveolar type I cells and is elevated in the pulmonary edema fluid of patients with acute lung injury (ALI). We tested the hypothesis that RAGE in the bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) would be elevated in experimental models of direct ALI characterized by alveolar epithelial cell injury. We devel

3. Two Novel Real-Time Reverse Transcriptase PCR Assays for Rapid Detection of Bacterial Contamination in Platelet Concentrates
The incidence of platelet bacterial contamination is approximately 1 per 2,000 units and has been acknowledged as the most frequent infectious risk from transfusion. In preliminary studies, the sterility of platelet concentrates (PCs) was tested with an automated bacterial blood culturing system and molecular genetic assays. Two real-time reverse transcripta

4. AIDS epidemiology: inconsistencies with human immunodeficiency virus and with infectious disease.
The newly defined syndrome AIDS includes 25 unrelated parasitic, neoplastic, and noninfectious indicator diseases. Based on epidemiological correlations, the syndrome is thought to be due to a new, sexually or parenterally transmitted retrovirus termed human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). The following epidemiological data conflict with this hypothesis. (i) N

5. High incidence of hepatitis C virus infection in hemodialysis patients in units with high prevalence.
The prevalence of hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection was evaluated in 227 hemodialysis patients from four units in Caracas, Venezuela, by using different second- and third-generation enzyme immunoassays (EIAs) and immunoblot assays. HCV antibodies were detected in 162 patients (71%) by the recombinant-based second-generation assays (Abbott and Ortho) and in 1
