1. FGF23 levels as a marker of physical performance and falls in community-dwelling very old individuals
ABSTRACT Objective: The fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) has been related to biological aging, but data in elderly individuals are scant. We determined the profile of serum FGF23 levels in a population of very-old individuals and studied their correlations with parameters of bone metabolism and health markers, as functional performance. Materials and me

2. Local and systemic effects caused by Crotalus durissus terrificus, Crotalus durissus collilineatus, and Crotalus durissus cascavella snake venoms in swiss mice
Abstract INTRODUCTION: Crotalus envenomations cause serious complications and can be fatal without appropriate treatment. Venom isoforms present and inter/intraspecific variations in the venom composition can result in different symptoms presented by bites by snakes from the same species but from different geographical regions. We comparatively evaluated th

3. Pharmacological characterization of cnidarian extracts from the Caribbean Sea: evaluation of anti-snake venom and antitumor properties
Abstract Background: Cnidarians produce toxins, which are composed of different polypeptides that induce pharmacological effects of biotechnological interest, such as antitumor, antiophidic and anti-clotting activities. This study aimed to evaluate toxicological activities and potential as antitumor and antiophidic agents contained in total extracts from fi

4. Immediate effects of temporary bite-raising with light-cured orthodontic band cement on the electromyographic response of masticatory muscles
Abstract Objective: To assess the immediate effects of temporary bite-raising using light-cured orthodontic band cement on the superficial masseter and anterior temporalis electromyography (EMG) activity in healthy adults. Materials and Methods: Surface EMG signals were recorded bilaterally from the superficial masseter and anterior temporalis muscles of 3

5. Delayed effect of Kinesio Taping on neuromuscular performance, balance, and lower limb function in healthy individuals: a randomized controlled trial
ABSTRACT Background Kinesio Taping (KT) is an elastic bandage that aims to improve neuromuscular performance, although there is no consensus as to its benefits. Objective To analyze the immediate and delayed effects of KT on the neuromuscular performance of the femoral quadriceps, on balance, and lower limb function in healthy subjects. Method This is a r

6. Presynaptic neuromuscular action of a methanolic extract from the venom of Rhinella schneideri toad
Background Rhinella schneideri, previously known as Bufo paracnemis, is a common toad in many regions of Brazil. Its venom exerts important cardiovascular effects on humans and other animals. Although this toad venom has been the subject of intense investigations, little is known about its neuromuscular activity. Methods The neurotoxicity of a methanolic

7. Physical training for asthma
BACKGROUND: People with asthma may show less tolerance to exercise due to worsening asthma symptoms during exercise or other reasons such as deconditioning as a consequence of inactivity. Some may restrict activities as per medical advice or family influence and this might result in reduced physical fitness. Physical training programs aim to improve physical

8. The effect of a Lucia jig for 30 minutes on neuromuscular re-programming, in normal subjects
The Lucia jig is a technique that promotes neuromuscular reprogramming of the masticatory system and allows the stabilization of the mandible without the interference of dental contacts, maintaining the mandible position in harmonic condition with the musculature in normal subjects or in patients with temporomandibular dysfunction (TMD). This study aimed to

9. Effect of skilled and unskilled training on nerve regeneration and functional recovery
The most disabling aspect of human peripheral nerve injuries, the majority of which affect the upper limbs, is the loss of skilled hand movements. Activity-induced morphological and electrophysiological remodeling of the neuromuscular junction has been shown to influence nerve repair and functional recovery. In the current study, we determined the effects of

10. Pharmacological and partial biochemical characterization of Bmaj-9 isolated from Bothrops marajoensis snake venom
Bmaj-9, a basic PLA2 (13679.33 Da), was isolated from Bothrops marajoensis snake venom through only one chromatographic step in reversed phase HPLC on ¼-Bondapak C-18 column. The amino acid composition showed that Bmaj-9 had a high content of Lys, His, and Arg, typical of a basic PLA2. The sequence of Bmaj-9 contains 124 amino acid residues with a pI value

11. Efeitos de dois tipos de sessão de treino em parâmetros fisiológicos e neuromusculares de patinadores
Artistic roller skating has been developed over the years to become the competitive sport currently seen. However, little information exists in the literature regarding the intensity of the practices of this sport and if there could be a way to expose the athlete to a lower number of impacts of the jumps during training, but at the same time to achieve the s

12. Estudo dos efeitos do veneno da serpente Bothrops alcatraz em preparações neuromusculares in vitro / Neuromuscular activity of Bothrops alcatraz snake venom in chick biventer cervcis preparations
Bothrops alcatraz é uma serpente do Arquipélago de Alcatrazes no litoral norte do estado de São Paulo, Brasil, recentemente descrita. Neste trabalho foram analisados os efeitos neuromusculares do veneno de B. alcatraz em preparações isoladas de biventer cervicis de pintainho (BC) e nervo frênico-diafragma de camundongo (NFD), sob estimulação elétric
