BACKGROUND: There is limited evidence on recent trends in childhood growth trajectories in Low-/middle-income countries. We investigated how age-trajectories for height and Body Mass Index (BMI) have changed among Brazilian children born in two different time periods after 2000. METHODS: We used a population-based cohort (part of the "Cohort of 100-Million Brazilians") created by the linkage of three Brazilian administrative databases: the Cadastro Único of the Federal Government, the National System of Live Births and the National Nutritional and Food Surveillance System...

BACKGROUND: Reusable elastomeric half-mask respirators (EHMR) are an alternative to address shortages of disposable respirators. While respirator discomfort has been noted as a barrier to adherence to wearing an N95 filtering facepiece respirator (FFR) among health care personnel (HCP), few have examined EHMR comfort while providing patient care, which was the purpose of this study. METHOD: Among a cohort of 183 HCP, we prospectively examined how HCP rated EHMR tolerability using the Respirator Comfort, Wearing Experience, and Function Instrument (R-COMFI) questionnaire at Study Week 2 and Week 10...

The natural history and epidemiological aspects of traumatic cerebral venous thrombosis (CVT) are not fully understood. Due to the concomitant occurrence with intracranial hemorrhages, guidelines for medical treatment have been highly controversial. In this study, our objective was to carry out an analysis description of the population and to conduct a literature review. A prospectively gathered radiology registry data of patients hospitalized at the tertiary hospital of Centro Hospitalar Universitário do São João, Porto, Portugal, between 2016 and 2021 was carried out...

OBJECTIVES: Radiography and MRI of the sacroiliac joints (SIJ) are relevant for the diagnosis and classification of patients with axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA). This study aimed to evaluate the impact of clinical information (CI) on the accuracy of imaging interpretation. METHODS: Out of 109 patients referred because of suspicion of axSpA with complete imaging sets (radiographs and MRI of SIJ), 61 were diagnosed with axSpA (56%). Images were independently evaluated by three radiologists in four consecutive reading campaigns: radiographs and radiographs+MRI without and with CI including demographic data, SpA features, physical activity and pregnancy...

BACKGROUND:  Hereditary transthyretin amyloidosis (ATTRv) is an inherited, progressive, and fatal disease still largely underdiagnosed. Mutations in the transthyretin ( TTR ) gene cause the TTR protein to destabilize, misfold, aggregate, and deposit in body tissues, which makes ATTRv a disease with heterogeneous clinical phenotype. OBJECTIVE:  To describe the long-term efficacy and safety of inotersen therapy in patients with ATTRv peripheral neuropathy (ATTRv-PN)...

Molecular surveillance of viral pathogens and inference of transmission networks from genomic data play an increasingly important role in public health efforts, especially for HIV-1. For many methods, the genetic distance threshold used to connect sequences in the transmission network is a key parameter informing the properties of inferred networks. Using a distance threshold that is too high can result in a network with many spurious links, making it difficult to interpret. Conversely, a distance threshold that is too low can result in a network with too few links, which may not capture key insights into clusters of public health concern...

Metabolic-dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) is a growing health problem for which no therapy exists to date. The modulation of the gut microbiome may have treatment potential for MASLD. Here, we investigated Anaerobutyricum soehngenii , a butyrate-producing anaerobic bacterium with beneficial effects in metabolic syndrome, in a diet-induced MASLD mouse model. Male C57BL/6J mice received a Western-type high-fat diet and water with 15% fructose (WDF) to induce MASLD and were gavaged with A...

The aim of this study was to associate FGFR4 rs1966265 and rs351855 variants with colorectal cancer (CRC) in a Mexican population and to perform in silico analysis. Genomic DNA from 412 healthy individuals and 475 CRC patients was analyzed. In silico analysis was performed using the PolyPhen-V2, GEPIA, GTEx, and Cytoscape platforms. The GA genotype dominant model (GAAA) of rs1966265 and the AA genotype dominant and recessive models of rs351855 were identified as CRC risk factors ( p < 0.05). CRC patients aged ≥ 50 years at diagnosis who consumed alcohol had a higher incidence of the rs351855 GA genotype than the control group ( p < 0...
