Ocular paracoccidioidomycosis in the  Western Amazon: a case report

Journal of Human Growth and Development
Paracoccidioidomycosis (PCM), a systemic mycosis related to agricultural activities, is prevalent in Brazil. Its insidious evolution can have serious consequences when not diagnosed and treated early. This endemic disease affects several organs, but ocular lesions are uncommon. A bibliographic search on Scielo and Medline found very few confirmed cases.

Cultivating Sustainability: How Modern Food Practices Shape Pro‐Environmental Motivation Through Food–Nature Associations

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Food practices have evolved alongside industrialization and urbanization. Compared to earlier generations, modern individuals grow and cook food less often and consume more processed products, weakening awareness of food's natural origins. Three studies examined explanatory pathways linking food practices to pro‐environmentalism through the ...
