SUMMARY: Several studies have shown beneficial effects of platelet-rich plasma. However, there are very few studies investigating the effectiveness of PRP in the neck region. We aimed to assess the efficacy of PRP injection for neck rejuvenation in females aged 40-55. Fifty-two female consecutive partici...
ABSTRACT The purpose of this study was to highlight the impact of biomechanical corneal response in available in vivo tonometry methods for glaucoma management. Systematic review of non-contact air-puff tonometers that analyzes the corneal deformation response, with special focus on the investigation of ...

In anesthesia practice, mechanical ventilation is a fundamental tool, and its correct configuration is essential in the patients care. Airway pressure is often assumed to reflect the forces applied to the lung and is used to monitor mechanical ventilation. This assumption is erroneous because pressure ac...
: A cervicobraquialgia (CB) é caracterizada por uma dor com origem em diferentes níveis estruturais da coluna cervical baixa (C3- C7), com irradiação bilateral ou unilateral para o membro superior. Considerando as causas e consequências advindas da CB, novas modalidades de tratamento têm sido propo...

Abstract The purpose of this in vitro study was to evaluate the force decrease of different elastomeric chains after different times: initial, 10 minutes, 1 day, 28 days and after mechanical brushing. Twenty orthodontic elastomeric chains segments were utilized for each commercial brand. Initially, the e...
Resumen Introducción: la elastografía en tiempo real, 2D-SWE (Supersonic), es una prueba no invasiva que se utiliza para determinar la elasticidad del hígado y, de esa forma, calcular el grado de fibrosis hepática. En Colombia, la prueba se introdujo en 2016 y no existen hasta el momento estudios de...
ABSTRACT Objective: This paper aims to verify the thermodynamic, mechanical and chemical properties of CuNiTi 35ºC commercial wires. Methods: Forty pre-contoured copper-nickel-titanium thermodynamic 0.017 x 0.025-in archwires with an Af temperature of 35°C were used. Eight wires from five different ...
Introducción: Para definir una adecuada estrategia terapéutica en el cáncer de recto es preciso una correcta estadificación. El ultrasonido endoscópico es un método de estadiaje preciso que define la profundidad del tumor y el estado nodal. En los tumores tratados con radioterapia disminuye su ren...
Abstract Objective: To evaluate the aortic wall elasticity using the maximal rate of systolic distension (MRSD) and maximal rate of diastolic recoil (MRDR) and their correlation with the aortic size index (ASI). Methods: Forty-eight patients with thoracic aortic aneurysm were enrolled in this study. A ...
La estrechez de la uretra es una patología con una prevalencia del 0,6% de la población El estándar de oro establecido para su manejo es la uretroplastia con tasas de éxito variables de hasta el 90% al 95%. El stent uretral surgió en 1988 fabricado con malla de acero inoxidable. Los resultados obten...
