Abstract INTRODUCTION: In this study, we aimed to identify DENV-2 subtypes in Aedes aegypti pools collected between 2011 and 2017 in a rural area of Northern Cordoba, Colombia ("La Balsa"). METHODS: RT-PCR was performed to analyze the capsid/pre-membrane region (C-PrM). Sequencing and phylogenetic bay...

Human polycystic echinococcosis is a parasitic infection caused by the larval stage of Echinococcus vogeli, which occurs in rural areas of Central and South America. Until now, little information on the genetic variability of E. vogeli is available. Here, 32 samples from human-excised E. vogeli cysts had...
Resumo O objetivo do estudo foi analisar a mudança na prevalência de doença cardiovascular (DCV) entre 2000 e 2010 e sua associação com os fatores socioeconômicos e fatores de risco em idosos. A diferença da prevalência de DCV ao longo do período foi analisada por meio de modelos multinível bay...

Abstract This ecological study used data accumulated between 2001 and 2012 hospital admissions of children under five years of age with asthma in 141 municipalities in the Mato Grosso. Hospital data were extracted from the SIH/SUS system, and hospitalisation rates were estimated using the Bayesian infere...

Abstract The practice of capture-recapture to estimate the diversity is well known to many animal groups, however this practice in the larval phase of anuran amphibians is incipient. We aimed at evaluating the Lincoln estimator, Venn diagram and Bayes theorem in the inference of population size of a larv...
BACKGROUND The human filarial worm Mansonella ozzardi is highly endemic in the large tributaries of the Amazon River. This infection is still highly neglected and can be falsely negative when microfilariae levels are low. OBJECTIVES This study investigated the frequency of individuals with M. ozzardi in...
Abstract The objective of this study was to determine of oral and oropharynx cancer mortality rate and the results were analyzed by applying the Spatial Analysis of Empirical Bayesian Model. To this end, we used the information contained in the International Classification of Diseases (ICD-10), Chapter I...

Introdução: A poluição do ar relacionada ao tráfego veicular é um grave problema nos centros urbanos, expondo parcela considerável da população ao risco de efeitos adversos à saúde. Estudos epidemiológicos e toxicológicos têm encontrado evidências que associam a exposição aos poluentes d...
Objetivo: Este estudo tem por objetivo apresentar diferenciais inter-municípios e temporais dos padrões de mortalidade fetal no estado de São Paulo (SP) e identificar indicadores municipais associados. Métodos: Estudo ecológico com uso de análises exploratórias espaciais e modelagem bayesiana espa...
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the relationship of biomechanical properties, corneal hysteresis and corneal resistance factor with age, sex and various corneal parameters measured with a Pentacam in normal subjects. METHODS: A total of 226 eyes from 113 patients were enrolled in this study. The subjects underwe...
