1. Bone-Anchored Hearing Implants: Surgical and Audiological Comparison of Different Surgical Techniques
Abstract Introduction The bone-anchored hearing implant system (BAHS) is an effective amplification system that transmits the sounds received by an external operating system to the inner ear by bypassing the middle ear placed in the temporal bone. Objective This study compares the results of patients who underwent bone-anchored hearing implant system (BAHS

2. Effect of Vitiligo on Auditory Functions: Is There Any Association?
Abstract Introduction Vitiligo is an acquired pigmentary disorder of unknown etiology, clinically characterized by whitish macules caused by selective loss of melanocytes. There are many melanocytes in the human cochlea. Recent studies have suggested a direct relation between cochlear dysfunction and decreased amounts of melanin. Objective To determine the

3. Ultrasound inflammatory parameters and Treg/Th17 cell profiles in established rheumatoid arthritis
Abstract Background: Imbalance and disfuntion in regulatory T-cells (Tregs) and IL-17 producer lymphocytes (Th17) have been implicated in the pathogenesis of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Gray scale synovial proliferation (GS), power Doppler signal (pD) and bone erosions seen on high resolution muskuloskeletal ultrasound (MSUS) are hallmarks of destructive art

4. Typological analysis of slidequakes emitted from landslides: experiments on an expander body pile and Sobradinho landslide (Brasilia, Brazil)
Abstract Reactivation of a landslide is usually accompanied by microseismic signals emitted from the deforming soil mass. The reproduction of similar signals in a physical model test conducted under control conditions can allow researchers to explore and test such complicated signals to improve the prediction of full-scale failure. The present study investig

5. Influence of Cryogenic Treatment on the Tribological Behaviour of AISI H21 Tool Steel
The aim of the present work was to find out the optimum cryosoaking duration of deep cryogenic treatment to reduce the wear rate. The AISI H21 hot work tool steel specimens were hardened at 1195 ºC, cryotreated at -185 ºC for 6 to 30 h, double tempered at 540 ºC and soft tempered at 100 ºC. The hardness, impact toughness, wear rate and microstructural ch

6. 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

7. Pulmonary crackle characterization: approaches in the use of discrete wavelet transform regarding border effect, mother-wavelet selection, and subband reduction
Introduction Crackles are discontinuous, non-stationary respiratory sounds and can be characterized by their duration and frequency. In the literature, many techniques of filtering, feature extraction, and classification were presented. Although the discrete wavelet transform (DWT) is a well-known tool in this area, issues like signal border extension, moth

8. Utility of a novel risk score for prediction of ventricular tachycardia and cardiac death in chronic Chagas disease - the SEARCH-RIO study
The SEARCH-RIO study prospectively investigated electrocardiogram (ECG)-derived variables in chronic Chagas disease (CCD) as predictors of cardiac death and new onset ventricular tachycardia (VT). Cardiac arrhythmia is a major cause of death in CCD, and electrical markers may play a significant role in risk stratification. One hundred clinically stable outpa

9. Ischemia preconditioning is neuroprotective in a rat cerebral ischemic injury model through autophagy activation and apoptosis inhibition
Sublethal ischemic preconditioning (IPC) is a powerful inducer of ischemic brain tolerance. However, its underlying mechanisms are still not well understood. In this study, we chose four different IPC paradigms, namely 5 min (5 min duration), 5×5 min (5 min duration, 2 episodes, 15-min interval), 5×5×5 min (5 min duration, 3 episodes, 15-min intervals), a

10. Integrating production and perception of secundary prominences in a dynamical perspective of rhythm / Integrando produção e percepção de proeminencias secundarias numa abordagem dinamica do ritmo da fala
The thesis investigates two main subjects: secondary stress in Brazilian Portuguese (BP) and the link between rhythm production and rhythm perception. Both subject matters are developed in light of Barbosa s (2006, 2007) coupled-oscillator model of rhythm production. Interest in secondary stress in BP is fostered by the fact that its existence, nature and di

11. Tremor e vibrato humanos: mediação de taxa, profundidade e regularidade no movimento de membros,na voz e no contrabaixo acústico
This work invetigated human tremor and vibrato. Algorithms for rate, extent and regularity measurements were evaluated in three signals: (i) tremor in upper limbs; (ii) spoken and sung voice; and (iii) long duration notes in the double bass. The study was carried out by measuring low frequency fluctuations (4-15 Hz) in the fundamental frequency series (F0) a

12. Speech recognition in quiet and noise background situation in children with cochlear implants using two different speech processors / Reconhecimento de fala com e sem ruído competitivo em crianças usuárias de implante coclear utilizando dois diferentes processadores de fala
The children with multichannel cochlear implants have show significant improvements in speech perception, mainly due to advances in techniques of processing the sound of this device. The objective was to study comparatively the speech recognition skills in quiet and noise background situation in children with cochlear implants using two different speech proc
