UnknownWestern boundary currents drive sun-coral (Tubastraea spp.) coastal invasion from oil platforms.
Most marine species have a planktonic larval phase that benefit from the surface oceanic flow to enhance their dispersion potential. For invasive species, the interaction of environmentally resistant larvae with different flow regimes and artificial substrates can lead to complex larval dispersion p...

UnknownGenomic surveillance and serological profile of SARS-CoV-2 variants circulating in Macae and nearby cities, southeastern Brazil.

Introduction

A characteristic of the COVID-19 pandemic has been the sequential emergence and global dissemination of SARS-CoV-2 variants, noted for their enhanced transmission efficiency. These variants with mutations in the Spike glycoprotein (S-glycoprotein), which interacts with ACE2 rece...

UnknownBody composition and grip strength constraints in elite male rink-hockey players of contrasting ethnicity.
Rink hockey is a highly specialized and physiological demanding sport with sparse research regarding the game and athletes' characteristics. A cross-sectional study was developed to characterize the body composition and grip strength of elite male rink hockey players and to establish the relationshi...

UnknownSpread of Gamma (P.1) Sub-Lineages Carrying Spike Mutations Close to the Furin Cleavage Site and Deletions in the N-Terminal Domain Drives Ongoing Transmission of SARS-CoV-2 in Amazonas, Brazil.
The Amazonas was one of the most heavily affected Brazilian states by the COVID-19 epidemic. Despite a large number of infected people, particularly during the second wave associated with the spread of the Variant of Concern (VOC) Gamma (lineage P.1), SARS-CoV-2 continues to circulate in the Amazona...

UnknownMild to moderate post-COVID-19 alters markers of lymphocyte activation, exhaustion, and immunometabolic responses that can be partially associated by physical activity level- an observational sub-analysis fit- COVID study.

Aim

This study aimed to evaluate if physical activity is associated with systemic and cellular immunometabolic responses, in young adults after mild-to-moderate COVID-19 infection.

Methods

Mild- to- moderate post-COVID-19 patients (70.50 ± 43.10 days of diagnosis; age: 29.4 (21.9- 34....

UnknownSingle-Nucleotide Polymorphisms Related to Glioblastoma Risk and Worldwide Epidemiology: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.
Background/Objectives: Glioblastomas are a part of adult-type diffuse gliomas, the most common and most aggressive primary brain tumors in adults (glioblastoma, IDH-wildtype). The identification of the genetic factors associated with glioblastoma could be an important contribution to the diag...

UnknownUse of Sanger protocols to identify variants of concern, key mutations and track evolution of SARS-CoV-2.
Vaccination and the emergence of SARS-CoV-2 variants mark the second year of the pandemic. Variants have amino acid mutations at the spike region, a viral protein central in the understanding of COVID-19 pathogenesis and vaccine response. Variants may dominate local epidemics, as Gamma (P.1) in Braz...

UnknownCharacterization of Th2 Serum Immune Response in Acute Appendicitis.
Acute Appendicitis (AA) is the commonest abdominal digestive surgical emergency, but its etiology is not clarified. Based on histologic observations, an allergic cause has been proposed. In a type I hypersensitivity allergic reaction, there is a Th2 immune response characterized by Th2 cells, eosino...

UnknownAutonomic Function Recovery and Physical Activity Levels in Post-COVID-19 Young Adults after Immunization: An Observational Follow-Up Case-Control Study.
Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has detrimental multi-system consequences. Symptoms may appear during the acute phase of infection, but the literature on long-term recovery of young adults after mild to moderate infection is lacking. Heart rate variability (HRV) allows for the observation of aut...

UnknownEndoscopic liquid biopsies of gastric fluid in a large human patient cohort reveal DNA content as a candidate tumor biomarker in gastric cancer.
Gastric cancer remains a diagnostic and therapeutic challenge worldwide. Improved prognostic biomarkers could aid treatment planning across surgical, neoadjuvant, and adjuvant settings. We evaluated a novel liquid-biopsy approach integrated with esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD) by analyzing gastric ...
