Worldwide trends in underweight and obesity from 1990 to 2022: A pooled analysi...
Robinson, L; Roccaldo, R; Rodrigues, D; Rodriguez Perez, MdC; Rodríguez Villamizar, LA; Rodríguez, AY; Roggenbuck, U; Rohloff, P; Rohner, FBackground: Underweight and obesity are associated with adverse health outcomes throughout the life course. We estimated the individual and combined prevalence of underweight or thinness and obesity, and their changes, from 1990 to 2022 for adults and school-aged children and adolescents in 200 countries and territories. Methods: We used data from 3663 population-based studies with 222 million participants that...
Epidemiology of portal vein thrombosis in liver cirrhosis: A systematic review ...
Pan, J; Wang, L; Gao, F; An, Y; Yin, Y; Guo, X; Nery, FG; Yoshida, EM; Qi, XBackground: Portal vein thrombosis (PVT) may be associated with negative outcomes in patients with liver cirrhosis. However, the prevalence and incidence of PVT in liver cirrhosis are heterogeneous among studies and have not been sufficiently determined yet. Methods: The PubMed, EMBASE, and Cochrane Library databases were searched. Eligible studies would explore the prevalence and/or incidence of PVT in liver c...
Impact of a Tutored Theoretical-Practical Training to Develop Undergraduate Stu...
Braga, MM; Lenzi, TL; Ferreira, FR; Mendes, FM; Raggio, DP; Imparato, JC; Bonecker, M; Magalhães, AC; Wang, L; Rios, D; Pessan, JP; Duque, C"Background: Tutored laboratorial activities could be a manner of improving the competency development of students. However, its impact over conventional theoretical classes has not yet been tested. Additionally, different university contexts could influence this issue and should be explored. Objective: To assess the impact of a tutored theoretical-practical training for teaching undergraduate students to detec...
A comparison of estimates of glomerular filtration in critically ill patients w...
Baptista, JP; Udy, AA; Sousa, E; Pimentel, J; Wang, L; Roberts, JA; Lipman, JINTRODUCTION: Increasingly, derived estimates of glomerular filtration, such as the modification of diet in renal disease (MDRD) equation and Cockcroft-Gault (CG) formula are being employed in the intensive care unit (ICU). To date, these estimates have not been rigorously validated in those with augmented clearances, resulting in potentially inaccurate drug prescription. METHODS: Post-hoc analysis of prospecti...
