Effects of Physical Training on the Myocardium of Oxariectomized LDLr Knockout ...
Brianezi,Ledimar; Ornelas,Elisabete; Gehrke,Flávia de Sousa; Fonseca,Fernando Luiz Affonso; Alves,Beatriz da Costa AguiarAbstract Background: The emergence of coronary heart disease is increased with menopause, physical inactivity and with dyslipidemia. Physical training is known to promote the improvement of cardiovascular functions. Objective: To investigate the effects of aerobic physical training on the left ventricle in ovariectomized LDL knockout mice. Methods: Thirty animals were divided into 6 groups (n = 5): Sedentary no...
Uremic neuropathy: an overview of the current literature
Camargo,Celeste R. de; Schoueri,Jean H. M.; Alves,Beatriz da Costa Aguiar; Veiga,Glaucia R. L. da; Fonseca,Fernando L. A.; Bacci,Marcelo R.SUMMARY INTRODUCTION: Peripheral neuropathy is a disorder that affects the cell body, axon or myelin of motor or peripheral sensory neurons and occurs in 60-100% of patients who are submitted to dialysis due to chronic kidney disease. Uremic neuropathy is attributed to the accumulation of organic waste, evident in patients with reduced glomerular filtration rate. Objectives: This review aims to make clinical ch...
Uremic neuropathy: an overview of the current literature
Camargo,Celeste Rodovalho Soares de; Schoueri,Jean Henri Maselli; Alves,Beatriz da Costa Aguiar; Veiga,Glaucia R. L. da; Fonseca,Fernando L. A.SUMMARY INTRODUCTION: Peripheral neuropathy is a disorder that affects the cell body, axon or myelin of motor or peripheral sensory neurons and occurs in 60-100% of patients who are submitted to dialysis due to chronic kidney disease. Uremic neuropathy (UN) is attributed to the accumulation of organic waste, evident in patients with reduced glomerular filtration rate. OBJECTIVES: This review aims to make clinic...
The role of Survivin as a biomarker and potential prognostic factor for breast ...
Veiga,Glaucia Luciano da; Silva,Raissa Daniel Machado da; Pereira,Edimar Cristiano; Azzalis,Ligia Ajaime; Alves,Beatriz da Costa AguiarSUMMARY Breast cancer (BC) is one of the primary health problems worldwide. As the most common cancer in women in the world and in Brasil, behind only non-melanoma skin cancer, this neoplasm corresponds to approximately 28% of new cases per year in the country. BC also affects men, although the incidence corresponds to only 1% of total cases. Currently, most of the chemotherapeutic agents used in BC treatment a...
Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome and sleep quality in hypertensive patients
Bacci,Marcelo Rodrigues; Emboz,Jonathan Naim Mora; Alves,Beatriz da Costa Aguiar; Veiga,Glaucia Luciano da; Murad,Neif; Meneghini,AdrianoSummary Introduction: Obstructive sleep apnea and hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS) is one of the developmental factors of high blood pressure (HBP), a relevant global public health problem. OSAHS is characterized by the reduction or complete cessation of respiratory airflow due to intermittent airway collapse. Additionally, significant changes in sleep rhythm and pattern are observed in these patients. Objective: To e...
Urinary beta-trace protein gene expression analysis in type 2 diabetes mellitus...
Bacci,Marcelo Rodrigues; Alves,Beatriz da Costa Aguiar; Cavallari,Marina Romera; Azzalis,Ligia Ajaime; Rozier-Alves,Ross Martin deABSTRACT Objective: To evaluate the gene expression of beta-trace protein in urine of diabetic patients, with no reduction in glomerular filtration rate, which was defined as below 60mL/min/1.73m2. Methods: Type 2 diabetes mellitus patients were recruited, and a group of non-diabetic individuals served as control. Beta-trace protein gene expression was analyzed by quantitative PCR. Blood samples were collected ...
