Of the 70 elderly people studied, 51 (72.9%) had an intermediate / severe risk of OSA. Correlation of OSA with female gender (p = 0.04), self-perceived health (p = 0.01), body mass index (p = 0.001), number of comorbidities (p = 0.002), arterial hyper...
The role of the NIS (SLC5A5) gene in Papillary thyroid cancer : a systematic re...
Morais, Rafael Martins de; Barra Sobrinho, Alaor; Silva, Calliandra Maria de Souza; Oliveira, Jamila Reis de; Silva, Izabel Cristina Rodrigues daPapillary thyroid cancer (PTC) is the most common thyroid malignancy. Genetic and epigenetic alterations play a decisive role in the onset of several human neoplasms. Mutations and polymorphisms are two frequent genetic alterations. Located on chromosome 19 (19p13.11), the NIS SLC5A5 (solute carrier family 5 member 5) gene encodes a highly specialized and efficient 80–90 kDa transmembrane glycoprotein that medi...

Toledo, Juliana Oliveira; Moraes, Clayton Franco; Souza, Vinícius Carolino; Furioso, Audrey Cecília Tonet; Afonso, Luís Carlos Crocco; Córdova, CláudioObjective: To test the hypothesis that antihypertensive drug therapy produces anti-inflammatory effects in clinical practice, this study investigated circulating levels of selected proinflammatory mediators (interleukin-6 [IL-6], tumor necrosis factor-alpha [TNF-α], and interferon-γ [INF-γ]) in response to multivariate drug directions for blood pressure (BP) control. Methods: Prospective study involving 110 hyp...
Exercício físico como fator de prevenção aos processos inflamatórios decorrente...
Brito, Ciro José; Volp, Ana Carolina Pinheiro; Nóbrega, Otávio de Toledo; Silva Júnior, Fernando Lopes e; Mendes, Edmar LacerdaAo longo do processo de envelhecimento observa-se complexa remodelagem do sistema imunitário. Estas alterações estão associadas ao desenvolvimento de patologias responsáveis por grande parte da mortalidade em população idosa. Recentemente, a prática regular de atividades físicas tem sido proposta como intervenção não-medicamentosa com amplos benefícios sobre a regulação de processos decorrentes da imunossenescê...
Nicotine dependence and reasons for smoking among institutionalized elderly
Secco, Tarsila Fagury Videira; Vianna, Lucy Gomes; Nóbrega, Otávio de Toledo; Loureiro, Altair Macedo Lahud; Teixeira, Renato da CostaObjective: Verify the nicotine dependence and the reasons for smoking among the institutionalized elderly smoker. Method: We investigated the correlation between the degree of nicotine dependence and the motivating aspects of smoking addiction in the institutionalized elderly. We studied smokers with 60 years or older admitted to a long-term institution in the Federal District. These individuals answered the qu...

Ferreira, Aparecido Pimentel; Ferreira, Cristiane Batisti; Souza, Vinícius Carolino de; Córdova, Cláudio Olavo de Almeida; Silva, Glauber Castelo BrancoINTRODUCTION: Postprandial lipemia is characterized by an increased concentration of circulating lipids after fat intake and is an independent risk factor for cardiovascular disease. Exercise is known to reduce postprandial lipemia and its negative clinical outcomes. OBJECTIVE: This study investigated the effect of intense intermittent versus moderate continuous exercise using the same energy expenditure in pos...
