How prices and income influence global patterns in saturated fat intake by age,...
Ahles, A; Muhammad, A; Yenerall, JN; Reedy, J; Shi, P; Zhang, J; Cudhea, F; Erndt-Marino, J; Miller, V; Mozaffarian, D; Abbott, P; Abdollahi, MObjective When considering proposals to improve diets, it is important to understand how factors like price and income can affect saturated fat (SF) intake and demand. In this study, we examine and estimate the influence of price and income on intake across 160 countries, by age and sex, and derive sensitivity measures (price elasticities) that vary by age, sex and world region. Design We econometrically estima...
Children's and adolescents' rising animal-source food intakes in 1990-2018 were...
Miller, V; Webb, P; Cudhea, F; Zhang, J; Reedy, J; Shi, P; Erndt Marino, J; Coates, J; Micha, R; Mozaffarian, D; Bas, M; Ali, JH; Abumweis, SAnimal-source foods (ASF) provide nutrition for children and adolescents physical and cognitive development. Here, we use data from the Global Dietary Database and Bayesian hierarchical models to quantify global, regional and national ASF intakes between 1990 and 2018 by age group across 185 countries, representing 93% of the worlds child population. Mean ASF intake was 1.9 servings per day, representing 16% of...
Incident type 2 diabetes attributable to suboptimal diet in 184 countries
OHearn, M; Lara Castor, L; Cudhea, F; Miller, V; Reedy, J; Shi, P; Zhang, J; Wong, JB; Economos, CD; Micha, R; Mozaffarian, D; Bas, M; Ali, JHThe global burden of diet-attributable type 2 diabetes (T2D) is not well established. This risk assessment model estimated T2D incidence among adults attributable to direct and body weight-mediated effects of 11 dietary factors in 184 countries in 1990 and 2018. In 2018, suboptimal intake of these dietary factors was estimated to be attributable to 14.1 million (95% uncertainty interval (UI), 13.814.4 million) ...

IL-31 and IL-8 in Cutaneous T-Cell Lymphoma: Looking for Their Role in Itch
Abreu, Maria; Miranda, Marta; Castro, M; Fernandes, Iolanda; Cabral, Renata; Santos, Ana Helena; Fonseca, Sonia; Rodrigues, João; Leander, MagdalenaThe itch associated with cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL), including Mycosis Fungoides (MF) and Sézary syndrome (SS), is often severe and poorly responsive to treatment with antihistamines. Recent studies have highlighted the possible role of interleukins in nonhistaminergic itch. We investigated the role of IL-31 and IL-8 in CTCL, concerning disease severity and associated itch. Serum samples of 27 patients wi...
Immunoexpression of Trefoil Factor 1 in Non-Neoplastic and Neoplastic Canine Ga...
Flores, AR; Castro, M; Rêma, A; Mesquita, JR; Taulescu, M; Gärtner, F; Seixas, F; Amorim, ITFF1 expression is markedly reduced in human GCs, suggesting that TFF1 is a tumor suppressor for human gastric cancer. The present study evaluated the expression and distribution pattern of TFF1 in paraffin-embedded canine gastric tissue samples, including normal mucosa (n = 3), polyps (n = 8), carcinomas (n = 31) and their adjacent non-neoplastic mucosa (n = 30), neoplastic emboli (n = 14), and metastatic lesi...
Stump Appendicitis in Two Adolescent Boys: Rare Presentations and Alternative A...
Ferreira de Lima, S; Patena Forte, J; Castro, M; Morão, S; Alves, RStump appendicitis is a rare complication that results from reinflammation of the residual part of the appendix, after incomplete appendectomy. Factors that may contribute to inadequate identification of appendicular base are subserosal or retrocecal position, extensive inflammation or inadequate surgical exposure. The length of the appendiceal stump after ligation is likely a major predisposing factor. The pre...
Prevenção da Isquemia Medular Através de Cateter de Drenagem de Líquido Cefalor...
Martins, A; Castro, MIntrodução: A isquemia medular e resultante paraplegia constituem das complicações pós-operatórias mais temidas da cirurgia da aorta toraco-abdominal. A colocação de cateter de drenagem de líquido cefalorraquidiano está recomendada como medida preventiva em doentes de elevado risco. Este trabalho tem como objetivo avaliar a eficácia da colocação seletiva de cateteres de drenagem de líquor. Material e Métodos: E...
