1. Association of recurrent upper respiratory tract infections with low production of oxygen intermediates in children
Abstract Objectives: Upper respiratory tract infections in children generally have significant morbidity and mortality. There is little data available about functional immaturity of the immune system and the child’s susceptibility to infections at the beginning of their lives, thus, justifying a more specific immunological analysis. Method: Analysis of h

2. Accuracy of direct examination and culture as compared to the anatomopathological examination for the diagnosis of chromoblastomycosis: a systematic review
Abstract Background: Chromoblastomycosis is a skin infection caused by dematiaceous fungi that take the form of muriform cells in the tissue. It mainly manifests as verrucous plaques on the lower limbs of rural workers in tropical countries. Objectives: The primary objective of this review is to evaluate the accuracy of diagnostic methods for the identific

3. Endothelial Progenitor Cells and NADPH Oxidase Enzyme Activity in the Development of an Aortic Aneurysm
Abstract Introduction: Endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) and nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH) oxidase enzyme activity may affect the vessel wall and have a role in development of aortic aneurysms. EPCs originate from hematopoietic stem cells and can be enumerated from peripheral blood samples by flow cytometry. In this study, we aimed t

4. Blood count and fasting blood glucose level in the assessment of prognosis and survival in advanced cervical cancer
SUMMARY OBJECTIVE: The objective of this study was to verify whether the parameters of the blood count and the fasting glucose level before treatment are related to prognosis and survival in cervical cancer (IIB–IVB staging). METHODS: Patients with cervical cancer (stages IIB–IVB) were evaluated (n=80). Age, parity, staging, histological grade, histolo

5. Hemoglobin S identification in blood donors: A cross section of prevalence
ABSTRACT Introduction: In Brazil, the sickle cell trait (SCT) has an average prevalence of 4% in the general population and 6-10% among Afro-descendants. Although SCT is highly prevalent, a large segment of the population ignores their status. The Therapeutic Guidelines prohibit the transfusion of SCT red blood cells into patients with hemoglobin disorders

6. Association of 25-hydroxyvitamin D with hematological profile and anthropometry in patients with glioma
SUMMARY OBJECTIVE: Gliomas are immune system suppressive tumors, and the role of vitamin D is pivotal in the immune system. This study aimed to observe if there is any significant association between the serum levels of 25-hydroxyvitamin D with hematological indices and anthropometric measurements. METHODS: A total of 75 glioma patients were included, and

7. Mutagenic damage among bronchiectasis patients attending in the pulmonology sector of a hospital in southern Brazil
SUMMARY OBJECTIVE: Bronchiectasis is a chronic respiratory disease characterized by inflammation, irreversible dilation of the bronchi, and recurrent pulmonary infections, with a high morbidity and mortality rate, but is less studied from the point of view of its prevalence and associated factors not directly related to respiratory prognosis. As it is a dis

8. The Ototoxicity of Chloroquine and Hydroxychloroquine: A Systematic Review
Abstract Introduction Chloroquine and hydroxychloroquine are antimalarial drugs widely used in the treatment of rheumatic diseases. With the global pandemic caused by the new coronavirus, there was an increase in the prescription of these drugs, which led to a major concern regarding their ototoxic effects. Objectives The objective of the present study was

9. High prevalence of serological weak D phenotype and preponderance of weak D type 4.0.1. genetic variant in a Nigerian population: implications for transfusion practice in a resource-limited setting
ABSTRACT Introduction: Prevalence of RhD negative phenotype in Nigeria is low; this leads to scarcity of RhD negative red cells for transfusion. Serological and molecular genotyping of RhD negative individuals for weak D types could reduce this scarcity. The aim of this study was to determine the serological prevalence and molecular types of weak D phenotyp

10. Study on the mechanism and therapeutic effect of Antelope horn treatment on cerebral ischemia reperfusion injury of mouse
Abstract To the mechanism and therapeutic effect of Antelope horn treatment on cerebral ischemia reperfusion injuries under different levels of concentration. The process is as follows: (1) establish MCAO mouse model, test the modelling using traction and open field experiments, use TTC staining to detect the protective effect of Antelope horn treatment on c

11. Imaging Analysis of Onodi Cells on Cone-Beam Computed Tomography
Abstract Introduction Onodi cells are the most posterior ethmoid air cells, and extend superolaterally to the sphenoid sinus. The identification of Onodi cells is essential to because they can have some significant anatomic variations and relationships to vital adjacent structures, like the optic canal, the sphenoid sinus, and the internal carotid artery.

12. Mild and asymptomatic cases of COVID-19 are potential threat for faecal–oral transmission
SUMMARY Checkpoint inhibitors have substantially improved the prognosis for patients with advanced malignancy. Treatment with immunomodulants has the ability to reactivate the immune system against tumor cells, but can also trigger the development of immune-related adverse events that reflects a loss of tolerance of the immune system for self-antigens. Regar
