Nóbrega, Otávio T.; Morais-Junior, Gilberto S.; Viana, Nayara I.; Reis, Sabrina T.; Perez, Diego I. V.; Freitas, Wladimir M.; Sposito, Andrei C.Made available in DSpace on 2022-04-28T19:28:39Z (GMT). No. of bitstreams: 0 Previous issue date: 2020-01-01; The human aging is marked by several body changes, including in bone mineral density (BMD). Research shows that microRNAs are important modulators of bone metabolism. The present research aims to analyze the whole blood concentration of 10 selected microRNAs (miRs) and their association with absolute an...
Molecular and cellular biomarkers of COVID-19 prognosis : protocol for the pros...
Kurizky, Patricia Shu; Nóbrega, Otávio T.; Soares, Alexandre Anderson de Sousa Munhoz; Aires, Rodrigo Barbosa; Albuquerque, Cleandro Pires deBackground: Since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, the world’s attention has been focused on better understanding the relation between the human host and the SARS-CoV-2 virus, as its action has led to hundreds of thousands of deaths. Objective: In this context, we decided to study certain consequences of the abundant cytokine release over the innate and adaptive immune systems, inflammation, and hemostas...
Intradialytic isometric handgrip exercise does not cause hemodynamic instabilit...
Ribeiro, Heitor S.; Cunha, Vinícius A.; Baiao, Victor M.; Almeida, Lucas S.; Dourado, Gustavo Í.; Carvalho, Helton L.; Duarte, Marvery P.Hemodialysis (HD) patients experience hemodynamic instability and intradialytic exercise seems to attenuate it. This study aimed to verify the acute hemodynamic response to different intradialytic handgrip exercise intensities in HD patients. In a randomized, cross-over, experimental pilot study, eight patients completed two experimental sessions and one control in random order: (a) regular HD; (b) low-intensit...
Serum Klotho (but not haplotypes) associate with the post-myocardial infarction...
Paula, Roberta S.; Souza, Vinícius C.; Machado-Silva, Wilcelly; Almeida, Bruno Ratier S.; Daros, Andersen C.; Gomes, Lucy; Ferreira, Aparecido P.OBJECTIVES: The number of deaths from vascular diseases is incredibly high worldwide, and reliable markers for major events are still needed. The current cross-sectional study investigated the association of Klotho haplotypes and Klotho serum levels with classic risk factors and a clinical history of vascular events. METHODS: Clinical, anthropometric, biochemical and nutritional assessments were conducted with ...
