Diagnostic Accuracy of Procalcitonin in the Diagnosis of Sepsis in Cancer Patients Hospitalized for Infection. [PDF]

Cancer Rep (Hoboken)
ABSTRACT Objectives Sepsis is defined as a life‐threatening, dysfunctional body‐response to infection. Procalcitonin (PCT) is considered a marker of sepsis due to bacterial infections and it has been extensively used as a guide to antimicrobial management in the general population.

Impact of the visceral adipose tissue on bone quality in patients with untreated mild-to-severe obstructive sleep apnea. [PDF]

J Sleep Res
Summary Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) predominantly affects patients who are obese and causes systemic organ damage. Little is known about the relationship between fat distribution and bone impairment in these patients. We aimed to evaluate the impact of the visceral adipose tissue (VAT) on the bone quality of patients with OSA.

Phenotypic correlates of genetic divergence suggest at least three species in the complex of Dianthus virgineus (Caryophyllaceae)

TAXON, Volume 72, Issue 5, Page 1019-1033, October 2023., 2023
Abstract Dianthus virgineus encompasses a very complex taxonomic group (traditionally called D. sylvestris group) including an array of units of doubtful taxonomic rank and value. Recent work identified three genetic lineages within this complex that showed strong genetic isolation, and clear geographical boundaries (i.e., “Alpine”, “Balkan”, and ...

Univariate and multivariate genome‐wide association studies for hematological traits in Murciano‐Granadina goats

Animal Genetics, Volume 54, Issue 4, Page 491-499, August 2023., 2023
Abstract Hematological traits are important indicators of health status, and they are frequently used as criteria for clinical diagnosis. In humans, the genomic architecture of blood traits has been investigated in depth and thousands of associations with genetic variants have been found.

Selênio para caprinos e ovinos:Revisão [PDF]

Pubvet, 2018
Nutrition demands the higher cost of production of goats and sheep and because of this reason, greater profitability can be achieved in the details. Where each nutrient has its importance, and some of them are highlighted differently, is the case of selenium. Within animal physiology, selenium is multifunctional and essential for the normal functioning

Survival analysis of productive life in Florida dairy goats using a Cox proportional hazards model

Journal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, Volume 140, Issue 4, Page 431-439, July 2023., 2023
Abstract Longevity is an economically important trait, since extending the functional life of a doe would allow us to keep the most productive females in the herd as long as possible, and this could result in the increased profitability of dairy farms.

Shock wave structure in a lattice gas [PDF]

, 2007
The motion and structure of shock and expansion waves in a simple particle system, a lattice gas and cellular automaton, are determined in an exact computation. Shock wave solutions, also exact, of a continuum description, a model Boltzmann equation, are

Theorizing the persistence of local–foreign inequality in international development organizations through the analytic of coloniality

Gender, Work &Organization, Volume 30, Issue 2, Page 529-546, March 2023., 2023
Abstract This paper theorizes the persistence of inequality between “local” and “foreign” staff in international development organizations. This is a perplexing phenomenon given these organizations' aims of equality and improving lives. The paper draws on qualitative empirical material generated over a three‐month period at an American‐founded ...
