Influence of Angiotensin-Converting-Enzyme Gene Polymorphism on Echocardiograph...
Duque,Gustavo Salgado; Silva,Dayse Aparecida da; Albuquerque,Felipe Neves de; Schneider,Roberta Siuffo; Gimenez,Alinne; Pozzan,RobertoAbstract Background: Association between angiotensin-converting-enzyme (ACE) gene polymorphisms and different clinical and echocardiographic outcomes has been described in patients with heart failure (HF) and coronary artery disease. Studying the genetic profile of the local population with both diseases is necessary to assess the occurrence of that association. Objectives: To assess the frequency of ACE gene p...
APOE and LDLR Gene Polymorphisms and Dyslipidemia Tracking. Rio de Janeiro Study
Freitas,Rossana Ghessa Andrade de; Campana,Erika Maria Gonçalves; Pozzan,Roberto; Brandão,Andréa Araujo; Brandão,Ayrton PiresBackground:Studies show an association between changes in apolipoprotein E (ApoE) and LDLR receptor with the occurrence of dyslipidemia.Objectives:To investigate the association between polymorphisms of the APOE (ε2, ε3, ε4) and LDLR (A370T) genes with the persistence of abnormal serum lipid levels in young individuals followed up for 17 years in the Rio de Janeiro Study.Methods:The study included 56 individual...
Impacto do polimorfismo genetico da enzima conversora da angiotensina no remode...
Albuquerque,Felipe Neves de; Brandao,Andrea Araujo; Silva,Dayse Aparecida da; Mourilhe-Rocha,Ricardo; Duque,Gustavo SalgadoFundamento: O papel dos polimorfismos genéticos da enzima de conversão da angiotensina na insuficiência cardíaca, como preditor de desfechos ecocardiográficos, ainda não está estabelecido. é necessário identificar o perfil local para observar o impacto desses genótipos na população brasileira, sendo inédito o estudo da insuficiência cardíaca de etiologia exclusivamente não isquêmica em seguimento mais longo que...
Identification of a criminal by DNA typing in a rape case in Rio de Janeiro, Br...
Góes,Andréa Carla de Souza; Silva,Dayse Aparecida da; Domingues,Cristiane Santana; Marreiro Sobrinho,João; Carvalho,Elizeu Fagundes deCONTEXT: Human DNA identification is a powerful tool for paternity cases as well as for criminal investigation, in which biological evidence is typed after collection from crime scenes and for the identification of human remains. OBJECTIVE: Identification of a criminal in a rape case with 4 suspects using STR and VNTR DNA analysis. TYPE OF STUDY: Forensic DNA analysis. SETTING: DNA Diagnostic Laboratory, Univer...
