Multidimensional associations of physical performance, balance, wellness and daily activities with frailty in older adults with coexisting frailty and diabetes

Journal of Clinical Nursing, EarlyView.
Abstract Background The coexistence of frailty and type 2 diabetes mellitus in the older population heightens the risk of adverse events. However, research on functional and wellness factors associated with frailty in this population is limited. Purpose To investigate the associations of physical performance, functional dependency, physical activity ...

Evaluation of the difference between mean corpuscular haemoglobin concentration and mean cellular haemoglobin concentration in canine complete blood count assessed with an automated haematology analyser

Journal of Small Animal Practice, EarlyView.
Objectives The study aimed (a) to establish the reference interval for Δmean corpuscular haemoglobin concentration‐mean cellular haemoglobin concentration in healthy dogs by ADVIA 2120 haematology analyser, (b) to identify the causes of increased Δmean corpuscular haemoglobin concentration‐mean cellular haemoglobin concentration in both healthy and ...

Potential geographic displacement of Chagas disease vectors under climate change

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, EarlyView.
As a result of modelling the potential distribution of 55 triatomine species in the Neotropical region, with climate change projected for up to 2050, we found no significant changes. With climate change projected for up to 2080 in the Neotropical region, we see a significant potential for the migration of 55 species of triatomines towards the Amazon ...

Automated identification of spotted‐fever tick vectors using convolutional neural networks

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, EarlyView.
We evaluate the performance of convolutional neural networks (CNN) AlexNet, ResNet‐50 and MobileNetV2 for the automated identification of tick species capable of transmitting spotted fever. CNNs achieved accuracy rates of ~90% in identifying ticks and showed sensitivities of 59%–100% according to species, sex, position or image resolution.

Contemporary Management of Patients With Chagas Cardiomyopathy in Bolivia

JACC: Advances
Background: Chagas cardiomyopathy (CCM) is the debilitating result of a parasitic infection that causes structural and electrical abnormalities. Yet, optimal CCM management is challenging in the resource-poor communities where it predominates. Objectives:

Effects of the alarm pheromone on Triatoma pallidipennis behaviour

Physiological Entomology, EarlyView.
T. pallidipennis performs behavioural acts in response to volatiles emitted by mechanically disturbed conspecifics. T. pallidipennis shows a repellent response when exposed to volatiles emitted by mechanically disturbed conspecifics. Isobutyric and propanoic acids can be used as repellents of T. pallidipennis. Abstract Adults of some Triatomine species,

COVID‐19 pandemic impact on blood donations and discards from screening tests for transfusion‐transmitted infections in a Brazil Brazilian metropolitan area

Transfusion Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract Background The COVID‐19 pandemic posed a worldwide challenge for blood services. We aimed to evaluate the impact of the COVID‐19 pandemic on blood donations and blood discards resulting from screening tests for transfused‐transmitted infections (TTIs) in a Brazilian metropolitan.
