Dermatology clinical case

A previously healthy nine-month-old boy presented to the Emergency Department with a two-week history of rash that started in the diaper area and later extended to the trunk, limbs and face. The mother reported a family history of psoriasis. The child had multiple erythematous papules and plaques on the face, trunk, diaper area, and limbs. He was diagnosed with guttate and napkin psoriasis and started on topica...

Síndrome de Ramsay-Hunt com Polineuropatia Craniana e Disfagia Grave: Uma Entid...

A síndrome de Ramsay-Hunt (SRH) caracteriza-se como uma infeção do gânglio geniculado do nervo facial pelo vírus varicella zoster (VVZ) e apresenta-se pela tríada de otalgia, erupção vesicular da concha auricular e paralisia facial periférica ipsilateral. O envolvimento de outros pares cranianos é raro, mas pode trazer dificuldade e atraso diagnóstico e um mau prognóstico.Apresentamos o caso de um doente com SR...

MECANISMOS HOMEOSTÁTICOS E HOMEORRÉTICOS DECORRENTES DA ACLIMATIZAÇÃO SAZONAL E...

O objetivo deste estudo consistiu em avaliar a resposta fisiológica de bovinos leiteiros, de raça Holstein-Frísia, com diferente potencial para a produção de leite, em duas fases de aclimatação sazonal. Utilizando a produção de leite corrigida para os 305 dias de lactação, foram selecionadas 6 vacas multíparas, com uma produção de leite inferior a 9000 kg (BP) e 7 vacas multíparas, com produção de leite superio...

Effect of acclimatisation in physiological parameters of high-yielding dairy cows

Heat stress alter the physiological status and the energetic balance in high producing animals. Acclimatisation is a thermoregulatory adaptation to heat stress with detrimental effects on productivity. We hypothesised that high-yielding dairy cows (HP; ≥9,000 kg – 305 days in milk; n=7) suffer a more significant influence of elevated environmental temperatures than low-yielding cows (LP; <9,000 kg – 305 DIM; n=...

Salivary biomarkers of acclimatization in dairy cows with different milk yield ...

Environmental heat stress affects the productive performance of animals, especially those of high genetic merit. The Mediterranean region is characterized by sudden and prolonged heat periods. Although animals can adapt to warm environmental conditions, in these conditions they are less likely to acclimate. Saliva testing is a non-invasive and inexpensive test that can be a source of biomarkers. Results from ou...

From cilia to cancer: the two splicing variants of the human TBCCD1 gene

Almost all human genes that contain multiple exons undergo alternative splicing. Therefore, a single gene can originate multiple mRNA isoforms which causes a dramatic increase in the variability of the expected proteome. Noteworthy, phenotypic variability and disease susceptibility in human populations are related to alternative splicing. Published work from our group identified a new human centrosomal protein,...

A GIS-MCDA Approach Addressing Economic-Social-Environmental Concerns for Selec...

This article presents an assessment of the most suitable compressed air energy storage (CAES) reservoirs and facilities to better integrate renewable energy into the electricity grid. The novelty of this study resides in selecting the best CAES reservoir sites through the application of a multi-criteria decision aid (MCDA) tool, specifically the simple additive weighting (SAW) method. Besides using geographic i...
