title: Cognitive performance of premature infants: association between bronchopulmonary dysplasia and cognitive skills. Cross-sectional study

description: ABSTRACT CONTEXT AND OBJECTIVE: Children born prematurely often have worse cognitive performance than those born at term regarding skills such as memory, attention and processing speed. Bronchopulmonary dysplasia may compromise cognitive development. The aims here were: a) To describe the cognitive performance of preterm infants with very low birth weight; b) To investigate its association with bronchopul-monary dysplasia adjusted for sociodemographic, neonatal and post-neonatal factors. DESIGN AND SETTING: Cross-sectional study developed in a public tertiary-care hospital. METHODS: To evaluate cognition among 112 children, we applied an intelligence scale (Wechsler scale). The average scores for children with and without bronchopulmonary dysplasia were compared across the fve domains of the scale. Associations with bronchopulmonary dysplasia were investigated for domains that showed signifcant diferences between the two groups. Associations between exposure and outcome were estimated via multivariate logistic regression. RESULTS: There were no diferences in averages for the full-scale intelligence quotient, verbal intelligence quotient, performance intelligence quotient and general language composite domains. The processing speed quotient was the only domain that presented a signifcant diference between the two groups (P = 0.02). Among the children with bronchopulmonary dysplasia, low full-scale intelligence quotient was observed in 28.1%. In the multivariate analysis, bronchopulmonary dysplasia (odds ratio: 3.1; 95conf-dence interval: 1.1-8.7) remained associated with the outcome of processing speed quotient. CONCLUSION: Bronchopulmonary dysplasia was an independent risk factor for alteration of the processing speed quotient.

title: Algorithmic Formulations of Evolutionary Anisotropic Plasticity Models Based on Non-Associated Flow Rule

description: Abstract In the present paper, orthotropic elasto-plastic constitutive formulations for sheet metal forming based on non-associated flow rule that assume distortion of yield function/plastic potential with ongoing deformation process are analyzed. The yield function/plastic potential are considered as two different functions with functional form as orthotropic quadratic Hill or non-quadratic Karafillis-Boyce stress function. Based on the principle of plastic work equivalence, anisotropy parameters of the utilized yield function/plastic potential are set as functions of the equivalent plastic strain. In the constitutive formulation, for this internal variable, evolution equation consistent with the same principle of plastic work equivalence is introduced. For DC06 sheet sample with reported significant variation of the incremental r-values with straining, predictions of the evolution of the yield stress and r-value directional dependences with straining obtained by the analyzed models are presented. The algorithmic formulations of the analyzed constitutive models are derived by application of the implicit return mapping algorithm. For the derived stress integration procedures the accuracy is investigated by calculating iso-error maps. The maps are compared according to the flow rule and involved orthotropic stress functions. It has been revealed that although there is a difference in maps configuration there is no prominent difference in error magnitudes.

title: Atlas of marine bony fish otoliths of Southeastern-Southern Brazil Part VIII: Siluriformes (Ariidae) and Pleuronectiformes (Achiridae, Paralichthyidae, Cynoglossidae)

description: Abstract To complement the series of manuscripts published as "Atlas of Teleostei Otoliths of the Southeastern-Southern Brazil", in this volume we present results for species of Siluriformes (two species) and Pleuronectiformes (thirteen species) orders. Considering that the sagittae of Siluriformes are very small we analyzed the left lapillus. Due to the asymmetry of the Pleuronectiformes otoliths, were analysed both left and right structures, being the circumsulcal depression the most important feature to diagnose these species.

title: Clinical discussion of the arteria lusoria: a case report

description: Abstract The right subclavian artery may originate from the left portion of the aortic arch. This aberrant vessel is known as the arteria lusoria. Its course to its usual site runs behind the esophagus, which may cause a disease known as dysphagia lusoria, responsible for symptoms of discomfort. This artery is often associated with other anomalies, such as the non-recurrent laryngeal nerve and the bicarotid trunk, and with diseases such as aneurysms, congenital heart defects, and even genetic syndromes. During routine dissection of a male cadaver fixed in 10% formalin solution, an arteria lusoria was found. This article reports the variation and discusses its embryological, clinical and surgical aspects.

title: EFFECT OF WARM-UP ON FLEXIBILITY AND FUNCTIONAL PERFORMANCE: RANDOMIZED CLINICAL TRIAL

description: ABSTRACT Introduction: Physical activity should be a fundamental part of health promotion programs. However, its performance can expose the individual to risk of injury, which makes it necessary to adopt preventive measures such as warm-up (WU) in order to minimize risks and/or contribute to better functional performance. Objective: The purpose of this study was to analyze the acute effect of different warm-up times on flexibility, balance, and functional performance in physically active individuals. Method: Thirty two healthy men, who exercise regularly at least three times a week, were randomly assigned to one of four groups (n=8): G0 (without WU), G5 (WU for 5 min), G10 (WU for 10 min), and G15 (WU for 15 min). The subjects were assessed before and after the intervention on the following variables: flexibility of the rectus femoris (RF) and hamstrings (HM) muscles, body balance with open and close eyes and functional performance through triple horizontal jump (THJ) and shuttle run (SR) tests. The WU was carried out on a treadmill between 70% and 80% estimated maximum heart rate for age. Results: There were no significant differences in flexibility and balance in intra and intergroup comparisons (p&gt;0.05). However, there was a significant improvement in functional performance only in G10 in the intragroup comparison for THJ variables (5.88±0.55 to 6.23±0.66; p=0.0051) and SR variables (4.72±0.13 to 4.61±0.13; p=0.0194) variables. Conclusion: Warm-up for 10 minutes seems to improve functional performance in active individuals, and may be a viable alternative for injury preventions.

title: Modelling of Rocking and Sliding Effects in the Seismic Analysis of a Free-Standing Column

description: Abstract A study on the seismic response of a free-standing marble column, including rocking and sliding effects, is presented in this paper. The rocking-sliding model implemented for the development of the analyses corresponds to the basic theoretical and numerical simulation of the dynamic phenomenon. The assessment procedure adopted for the application of the model to the non-linear dynamic incremental time-history investigation is checked by comparison with simplified rigid body-based analytical predictions of the rocking-onset response acceleration and the overturning critical velocity. The results show a high seismic vulnerability of the column, as identified by severe damage at the basic design earthquake level, and an overturning-related near-collapse response at the maximum considered earthquake level.

title: A fatal case of tuberculous meningitis in a child with juvenile idiopathic arthritis: a diagnostic challenge

description: Abstract The prognosis of tuberculous meningitis, a rare form of extrapulmonary tuberculosis, depends on the stage of treatment initiation. We report a fatal case of tuberculous meningitis. The patient had received successive tumor necrosis factor (TNF) antagonists and abatacept to treat juvenile idiopathic arthritis, with negative results for polymerase chain reaction and acid-fast bacilli on smear, had normal cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) adenosine deaminase and glucose levels. Six weeks post-admission, the CSF culture demonstrated Mycobacterium tuberculosis. The altered immunological responses caused by anti-TNF treatment made the diagnosis challenging. Clinicians should bear this in mind and, if suspected, treatment should be initiated immediately.

title: Infective endocarditis due to Bartonella bacilliformis associated with systemic vasculitis: a case report

description: Abstract Infective endocarditis due to Bartonella bacilliformis is rare. A 64-year-old woman, without previous heart disease, presented with 6 weeks of fever, myalgias, and arthralgias. A systolic murmur was heard on the tricuspid area upon examination, and an echocardiogram showed endocardial lesions in the right atrium. Bartonella bacilliformis was isolated in blood cultures, defining the diagnosis of infective endocarditis using Duke’s criteria. Subsequently, the patient developed clinical and laboratory features compatible with antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody-associated vasculitis. This case presents an uncommon complication of B. bacilliformis infection associated with the development of systemic vasculitis.

title: REGULADORES DEL CRECIMIENTO Y SUSTRATOS EN LA PROPAGACIÓN VEGETATIVA DE NANCHE (Malpighia mexicana A. Juss. y Byrsonima crassifolia (L) H. B. K.)

description: RESUMEN El nanche es un frutal que produce gran parte del año y del que poco se conoce sobre su propagación asexual; por ello, el objetivo de esta investigación fue evaluar el efecto de sustratos, enraizadores y tipo de estacas en la propagacion vegativa de nanche rojo, rosa y amarillo, recolectadas en Santa María Zoquitlán, Oaxaca, México. Se hipotetiza que el uso de reguladores del crecimiento incrementa el enraizamiento y sobrevivencia de estacas. La investigación se realizó en el Colegio de Postgraduados, Campus Montecillo. El experimento 1 fue en primavera–verano, utilizando estacas de 16 cm, 384 apicales y sub–apicales sin hojas, de cada tipo de nanche. Se llenaron charolas de 5 L con turba, agrolita + turba y arena + fibra de coco (3:1 v/v). Las estacas se impregnaron 5 cm de la base con AIB a 3,000, 6,000 y 10,000 ppm, en presentación en polvo y se compararon con un testigo tratado sin AIB. El experimento 2 fue en otoño–invierno, utilizando 108 estacas sub-apicales con tres pares de hojas, de cada tipo de nanche. Como sustrato se usó arena + turba (3:1 v/v) y AIB a 3,000 y 6,000 ppm, un producto comercial Biozyme*TF®, en presentación líquida y un testigo. Las charolas plantadas se cubrieron con bolsas de plástico transparente. El diseño experimental fue en BCA. Se evaluó el porcentaje de sobrevivencia, de brotación y enraizamiento. Los valores se transformaron usando la función arcoseno, se realizó un ANOVA y separación de medias mediante pruebas de Tukey. Las estacas con hojas plantadas en otoño (experimento 2) presentaron mejor sobrevivencia y brotación. El AIB a 6,000 ppm mejoró la brotación de las estacas apicales y el enraizamiento en sub–apicales; el Biozyme*TF® no se recomienda para el enraizamiento. El nanche rojo obtuvo mejor enraizamiento que el rosa y amarillo.
