Can Catheter Dormancy Be the Only Risk Factor for Delayed Small Bowel Perforati...

With the progression of chronic kidney disease (CKD), it is sensible to prepare patients for the need for renal replacement therapy. Peritoneal dialysis (PD) remains an advantageous option for those with residual kidney function and those who seek treatment adaptable to their daily routine. Timely catheter insertion is recommended to reduce the risk of peri-catheter leak associated with urgent-start PD. We pres...

Mapping capabilities for Smart Specialisation: an LLM-based approach

Smart Specialisation Strategies have become a cornerstone of EU Cohesion Policy, yet prioritising investment areas remains a challenge. This paper introduces a methodology for capability mapping to support strategic priority setting, integrating data from patents, scientific publications, and R&D projects, classified using Large Language Models (LLMs). Unlike approaches that focus narrowly on technologies or in...

Loose bodies within the abdominal cavity - a case report

Loose bodies of endogenous origin within the abdominal cavity are rare and often discovered incidentally during surgery. We report the case of a 62-year-old male undergoing elective laparoscopic hernioplasty in whom a mobile, pearly white oval mass was identified in the pelvic cavity and removed. Histopathological analysis revealed a benign fibro-hyaline nodule with central microcalcification and no evidence of...

Biologic disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs survival in late-onset axial spo...

Objectives Although axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA) typically begins before age 45, late-onset axSpA (lo-axSpA) has been widely recognized. While existing literature describes this subgroup, data on therapeutic approaches remain limited. Therefore, we aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of biologic DMARDs in patients with lo-axSpA.Methods We conducted a retrospective, multicentre, national cohort study us...

POSSIBILITIES OF DISCUSSION ABOUT THE INCLUSION/EXCLUSION PROCESSES: THE FEDERA...

This article aims to analyze the disciplines that make up the curriculum of Physical Education Degree courses at Federal Universities in the southern region of Brazil, verifying how the possibilities of discussion on inclusion/exclusion processes are presented, in documentary terms. Based on a broad concept of inclusion / exclusion, we mapped these courses in order to highlight how disability, race / ethnicity,...

SuperMarioWord: ERROR

Each person has their own nature including multiple types of intelligence. Some of these intelligences can be mimicked in artificial intelligence (AI) and through artificial thought as when programmed into a video game or computing structure. Error is something that exists within all of this premise. I propose to talk about the process and idea behind my video game called “SuperMarioWord: ERROR....” (played on ...

Broad-scale mapping of seafloor habitats in the north-east Atlantic using exist...

If marine management policies and actions are to achieve long-term sustainable use and management of the marine environment and its resources, they need to be informed by data giving the spatial distribution of seafloor habitats over large areas. Broad-scale seafloor habitat mapping is an approachwhich has the benefit of producing maps covering large extents at a reasonable cost. This approach was first investi...
