Toxoplasma gondii uses epigenetic mechanisms to regulate both endogenous and host cell gene expression. To identify genes with putative epigenetic functions, we developed an in silico pipeline to interrogate the T. gondii proteome of 8313 proteins. Step 1 employs PredictNLS and NucPred to identify genes ...
Introducción: En el perfil del Técnico Superior en Enfermería se establece la formación de un técnico consciente de su práctica social y comunitaria que contribuya a aportar a la sociedad una atención con calidad y calidez.

Resumo Otimização por Enxame de Partículas (PSO) é uma técnica de inteligência artificial (AI), que pode ser usada para encontrar soluções aproximadas para problemas numéricos de maximização e minimização extremamente difíceis. Neste trabalho, utilizou-se um algoritmo PSO para comparar os d...
ABSTRACT Objective: To assess the distribution of stress produced on TMJ disc by chincup therapy, by means of the finite element method. Methods: a simplified three-dimensional TMJ disc model was developed by using Rhinoceros 3D software, and exported to ANSYS software. A 4.9N load was applied on the ...
ABSTRACT Objective: To define a map of interradicular spaces where miniscrew can be likely placed at a level covered by attached gingiva, and to assess if a correlation between crowding and availability of space exists. Methods: Panoramic radiographs and digital models of 40 patients were selected ac...
Resumen Introducción. Las técnicas de biología molecular han permitido ampliar el conocimiento sobre las fuentes de ingestión de sangre de los insectos vectores. Sin embargo, la utilidad de estas técnicas depende de la cantidad de sangre ingerida y del proceso de digestión en el insecto. Objetivo...

Abstract Conservative approach, including occlusal splint therapy, is the first option to treat temporomandibular disorders (TMD), because of its reversibility. The present study analyzed the effect of the articular disc position and occlusal splints use on the stress distribution on this disc. A two-dim...
ABSTRACT CONTEXT AND OBJECTIVE: Type 2 diabetes is a chronic disease associated with a wide range of serious health complications that have a major impact on overall health. The aims here were to develop and validate predictive models for detecting undiagnosed diabetes using data from the Longitudinal ...

ABSTRACT Introduction. Chronic hepatitis B (CHB) is associated with high burden and healthcare costs. Virologic response achieved with antivirals is associated with progression avoidance. This study aimed to estimate the efficiency and clinical impact of antiviral strategies in CHB patients. Material a...
